CITY COUNCIL DISCUSSION OF AGENDA ITEMS AND QUESTIONS
• Councilmember Carmody inquired if there would be an opportunity for public input during agenda
pP Y p P g g
item 9b, Dispatch Presentations. Council discussed and was in consensus of adding a section to
allow for public input as part of that agenda item.
Councilmember Carmody asked that the October 25, 2004, Work Session minutes be amended to
add Watershed Commissioner before Graydon Boeck's name on page one.
Councilmember Carmody questioned why the Lyndale Avenue portion of agenda item 9g,
Resolution Accepting Quotation and Awarding Work to Valley -Rich Company, Inc. for Storm Sewer
Repairs Along Northway Drive and Lyndale Avenue, was not done with the park. Director of Public
Works /City Engineer Todd Blomstrom discussed that the section along Lyndale Avenue running
down to the Mississippi River was not done and replacing the storm sewer from the existing catch
basin on the east side of Lyndale Avenue is being done as part of this project.
Councilmember Lasman inquired about the infrastructure with agenda item 7e, Resolution
Amending Improvement Project No. 2004 -14, Contract 2004 -H, Shingle Creek Parkway Street,
Storm Drainage, and Utility Improvements, since the City is considering the Smart Growth Project in
portions of this area. City Manager Michael McCauley discussed that Summit Drive is unlikely to
have complete construction done as part of the Smart Growth Project and that the portion along
Shingle Creek Parkway is unlikely to have significant change; however, staff does not want to have
deterioration start showing. Mr. McCauley informed that these are judgment decisions; however, he
believes they are safe judgments.
11/08/04 -1- DRAFT
Councilmember Lasman inquired why not all gas mains would have a rectifier unit as requested in •
agenda item 7h, Resolution Authorizing Execution of a Utility Easement with CenterPoint Energy
Minnegasco for Installation of Cathodic Protection Equipment within Palmer Lake Park. Mr.
Blomstrom discussed that the rate of corrosion for underground pipe materials depends on the type
and chemical properties of the surrounding native soil and that not all gas mains are located within
areas where corrosive type soils are present. CenterPoint Energy is concerned that segments of
the steel gas main along 69th Avenue near Palmer Lake may be located within soils that naturally
produce higher rates of corrosion. The proposed cathodic protection equipment would minimize the
rate of corrosion for the existing gas pipe.
Councilmember Lasman questioned if there had been any arrests with the forgeries in regards to
agenda item 8a, Consideration of Renewal Application for a Currency Exchange License Submitted
by Community Money Centers, Inc. dba Money Centers, 6219 Brooklyn Boulevard. Police Chief
Scott Bechthold discussed that he was not aware at this time if arrests had been made; however, the
Police Department actively investigates forgeries and they do make arrests. Mr. Bechthold informed
that he would follow up on that question and report back to the City Manager. Mayor Kragness
asked Mr. Bechthold if he would add to the report whether or not the checks that are cashed are
employment or personal checks. Mr. Bechthold stated that he would make that a part of the report
Councilmember Lasman inquired if the neighborhood advisory group had participated in the
meetings with regard to agenda item 10a, Planning Commission Application Nos. 2004 -010, 2004,
011, and 2004 -012. Planning and Zoning Specialist Ron Warren discussed that formal meetings
with the neighborhood advisory groups have been discontinued because of the 60 day rule adopted •
by the State which does not have sufficient time for another meeting. An agenda was sent to the
neighborhood advisory group inviting them to attend the Planning Commission meeting and no one
from the neighborhood advisory group spoke at the Planning Commission meeting.
MISCELLANEOUS
Mr. McCauley informed that he was assembling information for the newly elected Council Member
and questioned if the Council would like to hold a Council Orientation at the first Work Session in
January. It was the consensus of the Council to have the Council Orientation at the first Work
Session in January.
Council discussed the request of a membership from the Sister Cities International and was in
consensus of not funding a membership at this time.
Council discussed the recent materials they had received regarding the AMM Priorities.
Councilmember Niesen expressed that she would like to attend or respond with an e -mail regarding
the Crystal Airport issues since it could have an impact on the watershed and Twin Lake. Mr.
McCauley informed that the City is currently not involved with the Corridor Group along Highway
81 and that he believes that would a project of theirs. Councilmember Niesen expressed that if there
is a discussion she would like to have the City Council take part of that discussion. Mayor Kragness
suggested that Councilmember Niesen attend the meeting that will be held to ask her questions about •
the Crystal Airport issues.

City of Paynesville on December 8, 2004, or participate in Paynesville's visit to Brooklyn Center on
November 22, 2004, as part of the League of Minnesota Cities Walking a Mile Exchange Program,
they are welcome to participate and should let him know if they do plan on participating.
SMOKING BAN
It was the consensus of the Council to take no further action on discussing smoking bans since
Hennepin County adopted an ordinance banning smoking.
TYPEWRITER SHOP ACQUISITION ON 57TH AVENUE
Mr. McCauley discussed that Community Development Director Brad Hoffman had been in contact
• with the Typewriter Shop owner's representative and that the Economic Development Authority will
have a resolution before them on November 22, 2004. The purchase price is considered reasonable
and would be less costly than pursuing eminent domain.
MISCELLANEOUS
Councilmember Niesen questioned if there would be a year -end report on crimes being solved by the
City's Investigative Department. She expressed that she is concerned about the effectiveness of that
department and that she would like to have statistics or a year -end report. Mr. McCauley informed
that he believes the Police Department does have some type of results for year -end and that he will
report back to the Council.
Councilmember Niesen informed that she would like to have a copy of the Joslyn Sediment Report;

representatives present to outline their proposals.
•
11/08/04 -6- DRAFT
• City of St. Louis Park City Manager Tom Harmening addressed the Council to outline the City of St.
Louis Park's proposal of dispatch services and to discuss the approximate operating and start up
costs. He informed that the estimated time to undertake the necessary transition to allow dispatch
services with the City of St. Louis Park would be approximately one year. Mr. Harmening discussed
that he believes the City of St. Louis Park provides a high quality of service and would be able to
provide the same for the City of Brooklyn Center; and that the City of St. Louis Park is open to
discussion about all the related issues of partnering with them for dispatch services.
City of St. Louis Park Police Chief John Luse addressed the Council to outline their current
dispatching services and expressed that he believes their dispatching services would be the right size
to be adaptive and meet the needs for the City of Brooklyn Center. Council discussed policy issues,
protocols, and the ratio of dispatchers to citizens.
City of Minneapolis Emergency Communications Department Director John Dejung addressed the
Council to outline the City of Minneapolis' proposal of dispatch services and discuss that the City of
Minneapolis is looking for a new CAD system. There are many details that will need to be worked
out in order to figure how to manage dispatch operations. Mr. Dejung discussed their two -stage
system and informed that the Minneapolis City Council had received an offer from Hennepin County
to provide dispatch services and that at this time they have not responded to the offer. He informed
that the City Council will be considering Hennepin County's offer and that they will be responding
to their request. Council discussed the use of the non - emergency calls, the ratio of dispatchers to
• citizens, and the issue of similar street names.
City of Brooklyn Center Police Chief Scott Bechthold outlined an updated PowerPoint presentation
that included emergency and non - emergency dispatch protocols, differences between Brooklyn
Center and Hennepin County peak periods, computer -aided dispatch and records management system
descriptions, and a list of Hennepin County cities that participate in police and fire dispatch services
with Hennepin County.

P tY
dispatch operations and informed that he believes the City of Brooklyn Center is not getting what
they need for dispatching services and needs to look elsewhere for dispatch services.
Councilmember Peppe questioned how many people would need to be employed to accomplish the
duties of the Community Service Officers (CSO) and what is currently employed now. Mr.
Bechthold discussed that they had estimated four full -time and two part-time CSO would need to be
established and that currently the City has six dispatchers and one supervisor. Councilmember
Peppe questioned if the intent would be to continue those people in their functions. Mr. Bechthold

Councilmember Peppe questioned if the remaining $343,000 that the City currently pays is for the •
additional operating costs of the monitoring for the dispatch center; and if the cost savings for the
capital are met with the 800 MHz. Mr. McCauley discussed that the CSO pay would be at a lower
rate than a dispatcher and there would be no dispatch supervisor; and that there are two sets of capital
costs. One set relates to the City's equipment in the squads and that cost remains under any
proposal. The other portion is to take the City's dispatching console equipment and ability to
transmit and bring that up to the 800 MHz.
Councilmember Carmody questioned if there would be any capital costs associated with Hennepin
County needing to interface with their computer -aided dispatch system and the City's record
management. Mr. McCauley discussed that LOGIS will need to set up the same data protocol ability
with the new vendor that Hennepin County will be migrating to and those LOGIS cities participating
will have some costs associated.
Hennepin County Captain Rick Mulek addressed the Council to outline a PowerPoint presentation
that included an overview of Hennepin County's Sheriff communications, staffing, dispatching,
computer aided dispatching, user involvement, and new computer aided dispatch; and discussed the
User Advisory Board and the Standard Operating Procedures used by Hennepin County. He
informed that their new CAD System is in development and will be going before the County
Commissioners for final approval. They hope to have it implemented sometime in 2006.
Councilmember Niesen questioned why some cities only have police and some only have fire with
Hennepin County. Mr. Mulek discussed that not every city has a fire department and that there are
cities that have Police Departments covering several different cities for police protection.
Councilmember Niesen questioned employee turnover rate and ratio of experienced and new
dispatchers. Mr. Mulek discussed that it varies and that with 43 employees they do have turnovers.
There are people that have been there for 15 plus years and people who have left after a couple of
years.. He estimated that about 75 percent or more are experienced with two to three years of
experience.
Councilmember Niesen questioned if the LOGIS component will help or hurt the City and if the City
would be converting to the new component. Mr. Mulek discussed that he does not believe it will
degrade anything and that there will be some finances involved. Hennepin County and each
individual city will have some finances incurred with LOGIS to hookup the software that will work
with Hennepin County. Mr. McCauley discussed that at some point in time with the next iteration of
computer aided dispatch the City would compare whatever Hennepin County was using and what
LOGIS is looking at. In the five to ten year window, the City would probably stay with LOGIS since
there is a substantial investment.
Councilmember Niesen questioned how Hennepin County deals with complaints. Mr. Mulek
discussed that people can call directly to the Sergeant or the Operations Lieutenant. Generally they
do not get a lot of complaints; however, if there are concerns they can talk to them directly or the
Internal Fairs Division.

• Councilmember Niesen questioned if there would a formal agreement of understanding if Brooklyn
Center joins with Hennepin County. Mr. Mulek discussed that a member of the Brooklyn Center
Police Department will be able to sit on the User Advisory Board and be able to discuss issues,
protocols, etc.
Councilmember Lasman informed that she was not aware of the possibility of the City of
Minneapolis coming aboard with Hennepin County and expressed she believes that would be a huge
change of what the City of Brooklyn Center has been contemplating. She inquired if there were any
other cities that were considering coming on board and how the current facility would be
accommodating more cities. Mr. Mulek informed that Hennepin County would not necessarily need
to purchase new equipment; however, if the City of Minneapolis comes on board, they will most
likely be building a new building to accommodate the workload. Mr. Mulek informed that they are
already in the progress of looking at building a new building and this expense is being considered in
the capital budget for construction in 2006.
Councilmember Lasman inquired if the offer the City of Brooklyn Center had been presented would
continue to be the same if the City of Minneapolis came aboard with Hennepin County. Mr. Mulek
informed that to his knowledge that is correct and that the City of Minneapolis had been offered the
same as the City of Brooklyn Center.
Councilmember Lasman informed that she had contacted participating cities and some citizens that
had used Hennepin County for dispatch services and found the level of service that Hennepin County
• had been offering was excellent; however, there were staff that had concerns about not being heard
with issues they felt were important. Mr. Mulek informed that he was not aware of any issues raised
by staff and that the concerns that staff had would need to be considered on a basis of the concern.
He discussed that concerns could be discussed and that the Sheriff would have the final say.
Councilmember Carmody inquired what the timeframe would be for the City of Brooklyn Center to
come aboard with Hennepin County. Mr. Mulek informed that he believes the switch would take
approximately one year.
The Council took a recess at 9:04 p.m. and reconvened at 9:09 p.m.
Councilmember Peppe informed that has heard enough to believe the City of Brooklyn Center should
accept the offer from Hennepin County and expressed thanks to the City of Minneapolis and the City
of St. Louis Park for their time and effort in this process.
Ms. O'Connor addressed the Council to ask how there would be no charge to the City of Brooklyn
Center if a new building was built; and why the current dispatch centers are not feasible. Mr.
McCauley discussed that the cost of a new building would be the responsibility of Hennepin County
and would be paid by all Hennepin County taxpayers. Mayor Kragness informed that many of the
current dispatch centers do not have the technology to keep up with all the changes in technology.
Councilmember Carmody added that if Hennepin County uses funds from their Capital
• Improvements Fund there may not be any tax increases.
11/08/04 -9- DRAFT
Councilmember Niesen expressed that she is willing to support Hennepin County's offer based on
the costs and resources provided.
Councilmember Carmody discussed that she had a concern about the level of service that would be
provided; however, after touring the Hennepin County facility, those concerns were addressed.
Councilmember Lasman expressed that she would be in favor of accepting Hennepin County's offer
based on the quality of service, timing, and costs.
Mayor Kragness expressed that she agrees with all Council Members and believes the staffing and
technology needs will be met for Brooklyn Center.

favorable; and Director of Public Works /City Engineer Todd Blomstrom added that he believes the
soccer fields will be a good addition.
Councilmember Niesen inquired how much tax money would be lost. Mr. Warren discussed that tax
values are not generally an issue the Planning Commission discusses with rezoning of parcels.
Councilmember Carmody asked for clarification on the shared entrance. Mr. Warren discussed that
the School District and the owner of the apartment complex will close the north access of the
apartment complex. Councilmember Niesen inquired if that would be an impact on the parking lot.

TO: Michael McCauley, City Manager
FROM: Todd Blomstrom, Director of Public Works —1-017
SUBJECT: Resolution Approving Amendment No. 1 to Cooperative Construction Agreement
No. 83298 with the State of Minnesota, Department of Transportation for
Improvement Project No. 2002 -04, France Avenue Relocation Project
In July 2002, the City of Brooklyn Center entered into Cooperative Construction Agreement No.
83298 with the State of Minnesota, Department of Transportation (Mn/DOT) for the relocation of
France Avenue North. The agreement established the terms for cost participation from Mn/DOT to
provide for the construction of 50 Avenue west of France Avenue, Azelia Avenue north of
Lakebreeze Avenue and Drew Avenue between 47` and 48 Avenues.
During the design, land acquisition and construction phases of the project, the City incurred
unanticipated project expenses that were not specifically covered in the original cooperative
construction agreement. The proposed Amendment No. 1 would allow Mn/DOT to compensate the
. City for these project expenses. Below is a brief summary of the items. Further detail is provided
in the attached amendment document.
1. Environmental Compliance Work
Under the terms of the condemnation settlement agreement, property owners were
compensated for easements and environmental compliance work required to allow for
construction of the northern portion of Azelia Avenue. The cost of this environmental
compliance work was $246,305.29.
2. Installation of Street Lights
Four streetlights were installed along 50 Avenue and Azelia Avenue during construction.
The City incurred a cost of $15,200.00 to install streetlights along these streets.
3. Wetland Permit Appeal
The original agreement required the City to obtain permits for the project without cost or
expense to the State. Under the terms of the amendment, Mn/DOT would reimburse the
City for the cost of wetland permit appeals that were filed after the Shingle Creek
Watershed Management Commission issued initial permit approval. The City incurred a
cost of $37,431.59 in technical, administrative and legal expenses during the wetland appeal
process.
The attached City Council resolution would authorize the Mayor and City Manager to execute
. Amendment No. 1 to the original Cooperative Construction Agreement. Mn/DOT representatives
have indicated that the State will proceed with final reimbursement for the project upon acceptance
of Amendment No. 1 by both parties.

MEMORANDUM
TER
DATE: November 15, 2004
TO: Michael McCauley, City Manager
FROM: Todd Blomstrom, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Resolution Approving Change Order No. 2, Improvement Project Nos. 2004 -01,
02, 03 and 04, Contract 2004 -A, Northport Area Neighborhood Street & Utility
Improvements
The attached Change Order No. 2 includes three additional work items that were necessary
during construction of street and utility improvements for the Northport Area Neighborhood
Improvements. These additional work items were completed between July 22, 2004 and October
1, 2004.
The first item includes payment for the connection of temporary water service to 10 properties
where outside faucets were not available or were not connected to the City's water distribution
system. The contractor was required to perform excavation and mechanical work to connect
temporary water services to curb stops for these ten properties. The second item involved the
removal and replacement of hydrant grade lock assemblies to eliminate a water main leak in the
distribution system. The cost of this work was shared between the City and the Contractor with
the City assuming approximately 1/3 of the total cost.
The third item involved the work necessary to minimize noise complaints from residents due to
the need to continuously operate dewatering pumps during installation of new sanitary sewer and
water main. It was necessary to operate the diesel powered pumps 24 -hours per day to
sufficiently lower the water table in the project area. The contractor was required to install the
pumps within pits and place sound baffling around the pumps. Sound mitigation work was not
included in the original contract.
The total change order amount to date for this project is less than 0.5 percent of the original
contract amount. City Council resolution 2004 -67 awarding the contract for the Northport
Project included a 10 percent contingency amount for unforeseen additional work items that
typically arise during a street and utility reconstruction project.
Attached for City Council consideration is a resolution approving Change Order No. 2 in the
• amount of $10,158.00 for the Northport Area Neighborhood Street & Utility Improvements,
Improvement Project Nos. 2004 -01, 02, 03 and 04, Contract 2004 -A.

MEMORANDUM BROOKLYN
c�R
DATE: November 15, 2004
TO: Michael McCauley, City Manager
FROM: Todd Blomstrom, Director of Public Works
SUBJECT: Resolution Amending the 2005 Central Garage Budget to Provide for the Early
Order/Purchase of One Rotary Type Tractor Mower, Equipment No. 245
The Central Garage vehicle replacement schedule for 2005 includes the replacement of one park
maintenance tractor mower ( #245). This equipment item is one of three large mowers used to
maintain approximately 300 acres of park turf during the growing season. The current 1996
model tractor mower was originally scheduled for replacement in 2004, but was delayed by one
additional year due to recent budget reductions.
This equipment item is similar to the tractor/backhoe that was reviewed for early ordering at the
November 8 City Council meeting. Equipment vendors with the State of Minnesota
Cooperative Purchasing Venture anticipate a 10 percent increase in this type of tractor mower for
2005 due to increases in steel prices over the past year. The 2004 state bid equipment prices for
tractor mowers are locked until November 30, 2004.
Staff recommends that the City place an order for the replacement tractor mower before
November 30 to avoid the anticipated increase in replacement costs next year. Equipment
delivery and payment would not occur until after January 1, 2005 regardless of an early
equipment order.
Public Works equipment operators performed field evaluations on several vendor brands and
models available on the state cooperative purchasing contract based on price and other
operational factors. Public Works staff recommends the purchase of the MTI (Toro) 4700D
model. The MTI mower provides high cut quality, good maneuverability and low anticipated
maintenance demand. The proposed model would have a significantly higher mowing speed and
larger mowing deck as compared to the existing reel type mover.
The Central Garage has accumulated replacement funds from the Park Maintenance Division in
the amount of $66,500 for the replacement of this tractor mower. The replacement cost would be
approximately $65,300 after trade -in under the current 2004 state bid.
Attached for consideration is a City Council resolution authorizing the early order of one MTI
rotary type tractor mower as part of the State of Minnesota Cooperative Purchasing Venture.
Member introduced the following resolution and moved its
adoption:
RESOLUTION NO.
RESOLUTION AMENDING THE 2005 CENTRAL GARAGE BUDGET TO
PROVIDE FOR THE EARLY ORDER/PURCHASE OF ONE ROTARY TYPE
TRACTOR MOWER, EQUIPMENT NO. 245
WHEREAS, the Central Garage vehicle replacement schedule for 2005 includes the
replacement of one park maintenance rotary type tractor mower ( #245); and
WHEREAS, it is expected that $66,500 in accumulated depreciation funds from the
Park Maintenance Division will be available in the 2005 Central Garage capital outlay budget; and
WHEREAS, a minimum of 60 to 120 day delivery time and rising steel prices makes
immediate ordering preferable for 2005 delivery and payment; and
WHEREAS, it is possible for the City of Brooklyn Center to participate in the
Minnesota State Cooperative Purchasing Venture for the replacement of said equipment; and
WHEREAS, a MTI Toro Groundmaster model 4700 -D rotary type tractor mower is
available on the State Contract # 432120 at a total estimated cost of $65,300.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of
Brooklyn Center, Minnesota that the early order purchase of one rotary type tractor mower under
the Minnesota State Cooperative Purchasing Venture at a total estimated cost of $65,300 is hereby
approved.

Planning Commission Information Sheet
Application No. 2004 -013
Applicant: Community Emergency Assitance Program (CEAP)
Location: 7151 Brooklyn Boulevard
Request: Special Use Permit
The applicant Steven Klein, on behalf of Community Emergency Assistance Program, Inc.
(CEAP), is seeking a Special Use Permit to operate a childcare facility at the proposed location
of a joint tenancy service /office building on the Osseo School District property to be addressed as
7051 Brooklyn Boulevard. The property in question is being created under Preliminary Plat
Application No. 2004 -010, which is being considered for approval by the City Council on
November 8, 2004. The property is also the subject of a Rezoning proposal to C -1
(Service /Office) under Planning Commission Application No. 2004 -011 and a Site and Building
Plan Approval/Special Use Permit for a 48,600 sq. ft., two story, two phase service /office
building for a school district adult education facility use and an adjoining use by CEAP under
Planning Commission Application No. 2004 -012. These applications are also being considered
for approval by the City Council on November 8, 2004.
Group day care facilities are listed as special uses in the C -1 zoning district (see Section 35 -320,
Subdivision 3b of the Zoning Ordinance attached). Such a use is allowed through the Special
Use Permit process including review, recommendation and public hearing by the Planning
Commission and approval by the City Council. As a Special Use Permit, the proposal must meet
the Special Use Permit standards contained in Section 35 -220, Subdivision 2a through 2e
(attached) as well as the standards contained in Section 35 -320, Subdivision 3 b 1 through 5,
regarding group day care facilities. The property in question is proposed to be rezoned to C -1
under Planning Commission No. 2004 -011 and is located on the west side of Brooklyn
Boulevard, south of 71 st Avenue North. It is bounded on the north by 71 Avenue; on the east by
Brooklyn Boulevard and the Willow Lane Apartments (zoned R -5); on the south by Willow Lane
Park; and on the west by the Willow Lane Early Childhood Center and single family homes
facing 71 st Avenue North.
BACKGROUND
As mentioned above, the Osseo Area School District is in the process of creating a 3.63 acre
parcel of land that is to be rezoned to C -1 (Service /Office) so that they can construct a 48,600 sq.
ft., two story service /office building to house their adult education program. The School District
would occupy 25,000 sq. ft. in the first phase of the development. CEAP plans to construct the
second phase of the building in mid -2006 to accommodate a multi - service family center. They
are proposing a 1,500 sq. ft. to 2,000 sq. ft. childcare center to be operated by St. David's Child
• Development and Family Services as a part of their space. This proposed facility would be
11-10-04
Page 1
I
licensed for approximately 34 toddler and preschool children and is the subject of this
application.
PROPOSAL
The applicant has submitted written material explaining their proposal and how they believe it
will meet the standards for special use permits. They point out that their proposed day care use
will enhance the general public welfare by providing an essential service to the children and
families of the community, that the St. David's organization is known for providing high quality
early childhood education for children of all abilities. They claim their childcare center will have
little or no negative impact on property values or be injurious to the use of surrounding
properties. It will not impede the development or improvement of surrounding property and have
no adverse impact on the residential or commercial development plan for this area. They contend
that their proposal will have minimal impact on traffic in the area. They also point out that their
proposed childcare center and playground will comply with all relevant requirements outlined in
Section 35 -411 (copy attached). It should be noted, however, that they are requesting that their
outside recreational facilities be allowed to be offsite at the Willow Lane Early Childhood
Center. A letter from John Fredericksen, Assistant Superintendent of Osseo Area Schools, has
been submitted showing the School District's support for providing shared playground facilities
for CEAP to provide better services at lower overall costs. Dr. Fredericksen notes that they
haven't finalized the shared playground planning but have always contemplated such a system at
their site. Children using these facilities will always be escorted by an adult via crosswalks and
• walkways from the childcare facility to the playground area.
The applicant has submitted a plan showing the new facility, the Willow Lane Early Childhood
Center and the location of the proposed playground. This seems like an acceptable proposal and
we would recommend approval provided a formal arrangement can be established between
CEAP and the School District. It should be noted, however, that there does not appear to be
anywhere on site at the new facility where required playground/recreational facilities could be
provided consistent with the requirements of the zoning ordinance. Absent the agreement, and
continuous use of the shared recreational area, the Special Use Permit could not be
recommended.
The proposed day care is also required to meet the standards contained in Section 35 -321,
Subdivision 3b that required that the day care use must be compatible with, complimentary to
and of comparable intensity in terms of activity levels to permitted C -1 uses. Also, the day care
facility must be planned and designed to assure that that generated traffic will be within the
capacity of available public facilities and will not have an adverse impact upon those facilities,
the immediate neighborhood or the community. Traffic generated by other uses on the site
should not pose danger to children served by the day care use.
We believe that these standards are met as well provided there is an agreement for continuous
use of the School District property for recreational purposes and that adult supervision be
continuously provided when children are outdoors walking between the facilities.

Planning Commission Application No. 2004 -012.
e 4. The ant'
m of this special use permit is contingent upon the �' g p p g p development and
execution of an agreement between the Osseo Area Schools and CEAP to provide
outside playground/recreational facilities consistent with city ordinance
requirements on a continuous basis. A copy of the agreement shall be provided to
the City. Absent such an agreement, the special use permit shall be void.
5. Children utilizing the childcare facility shall always be escorted by an adult when
walking between said facility and the offsite recreational area.

• Special Use Permit for Property at 71st Avenue North and Brooklyn A Y Boulevard
Lots 2 & 3, Block 1, all in Center Brook Addition, Hennepin County Minnesota
Narrative Information
We are submitting this request for a Special Use Permit for a Child Care Center which
will be a tenant in a proposed multi - service Family Center. This Family Center will be
constructed by early to mid 2006 at (legal description) on the corner of 71 Avenue North
and Brooklyn Boulevard. The Child Care Center will occupy about 1500 -2000 square
feet of the proposed 25,000 square foot Family Center. In addition, the permit would also
allow the child care center to use for its playground space on an adjacent lot (see
drawing)
The Child Care Center will be operated by St. David's Child Development and Family
Services and will be licensed for approximately 34 toddler and preschooler children.
The proposed playground will not be contiguous to the building but will be located on the
adjacent lot approximately 320 feet from the Center.(see drawings). Children will cross a
walkway over a small portion of the parking lot in order to reach the playground.
The Child Care Center will certainly enhance the general public welfare in that it will be
providing a very essential service to the children and families of the community. St.
David's is known for providing high- quality, developmentally - appropriate early
childhood education. Children with special needs are included in the classrooms along
with typically developing children, providing children of all abilities the unique
opportunity of learning together. In addition, it will be an integral part of the
comprehensive services being provided in the proposed Center and in School District
279's Adult Basic Education building which will be attached to the Family Center. This
Center will in no way be detrimental to public health, safety or comfort.
The Child Care Center will have little, if any, impact on property values and will not be
injurious to other properties. It will, as noted, be located within an office type facility
and attached to a school district building. A school district early childhood education
center is located on the adjacent lot and the services provided there serve similar
populations as the Child Care Center. Most of the activities of the Child Care Center will
occur within the Family Center building.
The Child Care Center and the Family Center in which it will be located will not impede
the development nor improvement of the surrounding area. This Center will be located
on a corner lot facing Brooklyn Boulevard and a small portion of 71" Avenue North. Its
location and use should have no impact on any residential or commercial development
which may be planned for that area.
The attached drawings demonstrate that there will be minimum impact on traffic on
public streets. Families bringing their children by car will enter the private parking area
• off of Brooklyn Boulevard, park their cars near the "back" entrance and escort their
children to the child care center. Families not driving will either come b bus or walking _g
• and will use the sidewalk and entrance in the front (Brooklyn Boulevard side) of the
Family Center. Automobiles will enter and exit the parking lot from/to Brooklyn
Boulevard generally in the early morning or late afternoon. The impact on the traffic will
be minimal and within a small time frame.
In addition, the traffic generated should not pose a danger to the children. As previously
noted, they will spend most of their time inside the Center. When their parents bring
them they will not have to walk across any parking lots or major roads with the exception
of when their parents bring them by bus. The children will have to cross a small portion
of the parking via a walkway in order to reach the playground (see drawings). They will
always be accompanied by an adult when they are outside of the building.
The proposed child care center and playground will comply with all relevant
requirements as outlined in Section 35411 of the city ordinance.

ICE: Adult Education — Family Services Center Shared Playground
Dear Steve:
Thank you for the opportunity to write about shared playground operations at the Adult Education —
Family Services Center site adjacent to the Willow Lane Early Childhood Center site. While we
haven't totally finalized playground planning for the site, yet, we have always contemplated and
continue to plan for a shared playground system at the sites. We would use shared playgrounds to
allow for better differentiation of playground tools for educational development for the variety of
• students we serve at the Willow Lane Education Center. These children have a wide spectrum of ages
and experience an even broader set of educational needs. By sharing playground tools with the
Community Emergency Assistance Program (CEAP) tenant(s), we can have more playground spaces
on site and a larger spectrum of specialized tools for student educational development. This will enable
us to provide better services at lower overall costs with an added benefit for increased neighborhood
serviceability during non - school hours.
Please accept this letter of information for the playground plan. If you have questions, please contact
me at 763 - 391 -7014. Thank you.
2 etfully,

approval of a Special Use Permit since the applicant has indicated that construction will not start
on their portion of the building until 2006.
Mr. Klein explained that the reason for delaying construction until 2006 was based on financial
need but that they felt it important to get city approval prior to beginning their campaign to raise
the $4.6 million capital necessary to fund the project.
There was a discussion among Commission Members regarding adding a Condition No. 8. The
Commission agreed that a condition No. 8 would be added to the conditions of approval stating:
8. Approval of the Special Use Permit shall be effective through December 31, 2006
without the need for an extension as comprehended by Section 35 -220,
Subdivision 5, provided all conditions established above are met in their entirety.
Chair Willson stressed the importance of working out a formal agreement between CEAP and
the School District for use of the off site recreational facility. Without such an agreement, there
would be no Special Use Permit.
Commissioner Lund inquired about an indoor play area on the site. Ms. Linnea Davis,
representing St. David's, responded that they have plans for both indoor and outdoor play space.
She added that they are required by the Department of Human Services to have 2,000 sq. ft. of
play area.

To: Mayor Kragness and Co cil Members rmody, Lasman, Niesen, and Peppe
From: Michael J. McCauley
City Manager
Date: November 18, 2004
Re: Special Meeting on December 6th
In response to the Council's direction that it wished to meet as a group to develop a
single annual review of my performance as City Manager in 2004, a motion to set a
Special City Council for December 6 immediately following the Truth in Taxation
Hearing has been placed on the November 22 Agenda. A Special City Council meeting
is open to the public. Mr. LeFevere would serve as the recording secretary for the
meeting, in addition to serving in his capacity as City Attorney.
As I understand the City Council's discussion, the purpose of this Special Meeting would
be to create, through majority vote, a single expression of the City Councils evaluation
on each of the performance areas described in the form that has been used the past few
• years. This change was in response to Council Member Niesen's suggestion that each
Council Member not complete an individual form to be individually reported during an
evaluation review with me. To accomplish this change in procedure, Mr. LeFevere,
serving as the recording secretary for the City Council during the Special Meeting, would
record the results of the City's Council's group evaluation and not follow the previous
practice of giving an overview of individual City Council Members' results and a general
sense of the Council as a group based on those individual evaluations. If this correctly
reflects the Council's intent, the setting of a Special Meeting on December 6 will set in
motion the following process:
- Council Members will receive copies of the evaluation forms for their
information prior to the December 6 Special Meeting, but will not be
completing and submitting those forms to be provided to the City
Manager or to be made part of the Council record developed on
December 6th
- City Manager will prepare self - evaluation materials for the City
Council prior to December 6th
- Mr. LeFevere will develop minutes for the December 6 th Special
Meeting that will reflect the Council's direction to create a single
Council evaluation of the City Manager based on the majority
direction during the Special Meeting, this will eliminate the prior
practice of identifying individual City Council Member comments and
evaluations.

RE: Value Foods Liquor Violation
• Dear Mike:
On September 30, 2003, a violation of liquor laws, specifically sale of alcoholic beverages to a
minor, occurred at Value Foods. The charges against the salesperson resulted in a plea of guilty.
State law provides for the imposition of sanctions on licensees for violation of the liquor laws.
Sanctions that may be imposed under Minnesota Statutes, Section 340A.415 include license
revocation, license suspension for up to 60 days, the imposition of a civil penalty of up to $2,000
for each violation, or any combination of these sanctions.
The police department and I have attempted to work out an agreed upon sanction with the
licensee. That effort has been unsuccessful.
The Council can only impose a sanction after a hearing. The hearing must follow the procedures
established under the Minnesota Administrative Procedures Act. The Council can conduct the
hearing itself, or appoint a hearing officer to conduct the hearing, make findings, and make
recommendations to the Council. It is my impression that it is more common for cities to retain a
hearing officer than to conduct such hearings before the City Council. One attorney who acts as
a hearing officer for such matters is Karen Marty. She would provide such services at the rate of
$100 per hour, which seems very reasonable to me.

Re: November 22 " Work Session Agenda
1. Draft City Council Calendar for 2005
a. The Draft City Council Calendar for 2005 schedules City Council meetings on the
usual 2 " and 4th Mondays of the month. The scheduled February 5 th City Council
retreat is included. A date has not been selected for the 2 nd City Council retreat as
this is generally selected by the City Council at the February retreat. The practice
of scheduling a Work Session is included based on the change made in 2004.
Budget Work Sessions are scheduled in similar to past years. A joint meeting with
Commission Chairs is set, but no Commission recognition is included in the Draft
schedule.
2. Council Member Carmody: City Council Handbook
a. Addition of language regarding materials for council candidates
i. Council Member Carmody requested discussion of including a written
policy -on the provision of materials /information to City Council
candidates in the City Council Handbook. This has been a topic of
discussion at Council retreats in the past and resulted in past direction
from the City Council to not provide Council packets and other materials
to City Council candidates. This has reflected a conservation of materials
and staff time. The full City Council packet is available for review prior
to, at, and after the City Council meeting by candidates (or the general
public).
ii. Currently, the consensus direction given by the City Council, could be
stated as:
1. City Council packets will be prepared and delivered only to sitting
Council Members. City Council candidates are welcome to review
the public packet available during City Council meetings or in the
Administration Department at other times.
