AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 12 OF THE CITY ORDINANCES IMPLEMENTING A TIME OF SALE HOUSING INSPECTION, REQUIRING AN INSPECTION, DISCLOSURE OF CONSUMER INFORMATION CONCERNING THE CONDITION OF A DWELLING PRIOR TO ITS SALE AND CORRECTION OF CERTAIN HAZARDOUS CONDITIONS Mr. McCauley outlined the history of the ordinance that was proposed by the Housing Commission. He noted changes in the Ordinance that were made at Council direction which would cause immediate hazards to be reported to the City, regardless of whether a sale occurred. A second alternate was included in the Council packet that would better reflect the Council's request that the Ordinance allow more readily for buyers and sellers to enter into agreement that the buyer would correct hazardous conditions. The second alternate removed the requirement that the City consent to such agreements between buyers and sellers. Mr. McCauley introduced Building Official Dave Fisher to present a slide show of common items found in residential inspections. Mr. Fisher showed the slide presentation while discussing some of the safety hazards. He also explained to the Council some of the comment and below standard items. A motion was made by Councilmember Hilstrom and seconded by Councilmember Carmody to open the Public Hearing. Motion passed unanimously. Donna Zieska, 5455 Brooklyn Boulevard, appeared before the Council to address her concerns about the Ordinance. Ms. Zieska stated that she is not against the inspections, but is against the Ordinance. She thought Brooklyn Center residents should be more aware of this Ordinance, and that buyers do need to be protected, but also need to be responsible when purchasing a home. She feels that this Ordinance is against her Right of Privacy. Bill Gerst from the Minneapolis Area Realtors Association (MARA) also appeared before the Council to address two things, one being the change in the MARA's position as a result of the proposed change in Minneapolis' Ordinance, and two, the fact that buyers are having their own inspections. 6/22/98 -5- Mr. Gerst explained that the MARA's position has changed because of the fact that more and more buyers are hiring independent inspectors, and that the inspections are far more thorough. Mr. Gerst did not have statistical information yet as the percentage of buyer inspections for the Council and assured the Council that he will check into this further and report back to the Council. A motion by Councilmember Hilstrom and seconded by Councilmember Carmody to close the Public Hearing at 7:55 p.m. Motion passed unanimously. Discussion continued and Councilmember Peppe expressed that he was not comfortable with passing this Ordinance and that this item should be tabled. Mayor Kragness suggested that it be tabled until the statistical information from the Minneapolis Area Realtors Association is received and brought back to the Housing Commission. Once the Housing Commission has the information they will report back to the Council. Councilmember Hilstrom requested information on the rights that buyers currently have for correcting problems after purchasing a house. A motion by Councilmember Lasman to refer this Ordinance back to the Housing Commission and report back to the Council when statistical information is available, seconded by Councilmember Peppe. Councilmember Carmody stated that she felt the Council had had ample opportunity to have their concerns addressed and should not wait any longer to decide this matter. Upon vote being taken on the foregoing motion, the following voted in favor thereof: Myrna Kragness, Debra Hilstrom, Kay Lasman, and Robert Peppe; and the following voted against: Kathleen Carmody. The motion passed. 7b. AN ORDINANCE AMENDING CHAPTER 23 OF THE BROOKLYN CENTER CODE OF ORDINANCES, RELATING TO THE REGULATION OF PAWNSHOPS AND SECONDHAND GOODS DEALERS A motion by Councilmember Hilstrom and seconded by Councilmember Carmody to open the Public Hearing. Motion passed unanimously. Attorney Tom Johnson from Gray, Plant, and Mooty representing Grow Biz International (GBI) addressed the Council. Mr. Johnson expressed that GBI had concerns regarding the proposed changes because the changes will burden the secondhand dealers, and will not be effective in reaching law enforcement goals. Mr. Johnson discussed the different types of businesses such as Play It Again Sports, and Once Upon A Child. He brought to the Council's attention that these types of business' sales will be affected if the Ordinance is changed. He reported that a number of items brought to secondhand stores had a minimal amount of items that were reported as stolen property. 6/22/98 -6- Mr. McCauley suggested that the City's Attorney and Police Department get together and prepare additional information and that a report be brought back to the Council at the July 27, 1998 meeting. A motion b Councilmember Hilstrom and seconded b Councilmember Carmody to close the Y Y Y Public Hearing. Motion passed unanimously.

RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY FOR EARLE BROWN HERITAGE CENTER PARKING LOT This item was tabled from the June 8, 1998 meeting to receive confirmation from the developer the acceptance of the proposed agreement terms. Mr. McCauley informed the Council with a memo the status of the acquisition of the property for the proposed parking at the Earle Brown Heritage Center. He also informed the Council that there has been no progress in receiving the Grant Agreement from the State of Minnesota. The only risk for the City would be if the City did not enter into an agreement with the State. Mr. McCauley does not foresee any circumstances under which the City would not enter into the agreement with the State, but in order to acquire the property, it is necessary to conclude a transaction with the owner by entering into a binding purchase agreement. 6/22/98 -10- RESOLUTION NO. 98-107 Councilmember Hilstrom introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING ACQUISITION OF PROPERTY FOR EARLE BROWN HERITAGE CENTER PARKING LOT The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Councilmember Carmody. Motion passed unanimously. 9b. RESOLUTION ACCEPTING THE COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT OF THE CITY OF BROOKLYN CENTER FOR THE CALENDAR YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31,1997, RATIFYING INTERFUND LOANS, AND WRITING OFF UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS Mr. McCauley reported that the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report which was reviewed at a Work Session with the Auditor and Financial Commission has a clean opinion. A formal presentation will be made to the Council at the July 27, 1998 meeting by the Auditors. Councilmember Hilstrom questioned if next year this report could be done prior to approval. Mr. McCauley discussed that we could try to do so, but timing is an issue on the Auditors' availability. RESOLUTION NO. 98-108 Councilmember Hilstrom introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION ACCEPTING THE COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT OF THE CITY OF BROOKLYN CENTER FOR THE CALENDAR YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31, 1997, RATIFYING INTERFUND LOANS, AND WRITING OFF UNCOLLECTIBLE ACCOUNTS The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Councilmember Lasman. Motion passed unanimously. 9c. REPORT ON POLICE/FIRE STATIONS Mr. McCauley advised that the construction schedule has been delayed due to a strike at the concrete panel contractors. 6/22/98 -11- This has pushed the schedule back to a late October time line for building inspections' completion of the police station, thus appears to be around August rather than June. Ground will be moved for the police building in September. Work is in progress to do the utility work for the Brooklyn Boulevard Fire Station. Mr. McCauley also presented renderings of the exterior designs for the new buildings. 9d. SET DATE AND TIME OF SPECIAL MEETING AT BROOKDALE Mr. McCauley requested cancellation of the special meetings at Brookdale on June 29 and June 30 in the Community Room and rescheduling for Monday, July 6, 1998, at 7:00 p.m., due to a conflict on the owner's part. Motion by Councilmember Hilstrom and seconded by Councilmember Lasman. Motion passed unanimously. 9e. SPRAYING FOR ALGAE ON MIDDLE TWIN LAKES Mr. McCauley advised that the staff sought to obtain permits to spray the Brooklyn Center portion's of Upper and Middle Twin Lakes. The staff could not obtain a permit to spray Middle Twin Lake without spraying in other cities and getting permission from all owners. It was possible, as has been done in the past few years, to spray Upper Twin Lake. Thus, staff would proceed to obtain permits for Upper Twin Lake and not for Middle Twin Lake, which in the past had been done by individual owners, rather than the City. As the Council had requested, the watershed would be making recommendations on these matters for next year. 9f. RECOMMENDED AMENDMENTS TO PERSONNEL RULES AND REGULATIONS Mr. McCauley discussed that there are two changes being recommended to the Personnel Rules and Regulations. The first recommendation comes from the Employee Action Committee regarding the Columbus Day Holiday. Employees were surveyed and indicated a preference to have a floating holiday rather than take Columbus Day off. This would result in one additional day of being open to provide service without impact on total number of holidays, but it is limited to non -union employees. It is recommended to change the rules and regulations to state that City Hall Offices will be opened on Columbus Day, and employees will accrue one more floating holiday. RESOLUTION NO. 98-109 Councilmember Lasman introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION AMENDING PERSONNEL RULES AND REGULATIONS REGARDING OFFICIAL CITY HOLIDAYS 6/22/98 -12- RESOLUTION NO. 98-109 Councilmember Lasman introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION AMENDING PERSONNEL RULES AND REGULATIONS REGARDING OFFICIAL CITY HOLIDAYS The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Councilmember Hilstrom. Motion passed unanimously. The second recommendation was to change the rules and regulations for the probationary period of a new employee. Rather than complete a six month probation period with no paid vacation being used during that period, a new employee could use vacation as earned within their six months of probation. If for some reason the employee did not stay with the City after the six month probation period, the City is liable for the time accrued and will not lose anything. RESOLUTION NO. 98 -110 Councilmember Lasman introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION AMENDING PERSONNEL RULES AND REGULATIONS REGARDING BENEFITS DURING PROBATIONARY PERIOD The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Councilmember Hilstrom. Motion passed unanimously. 9g. CITIZEN INPUT - PARK IMPROVEMENTS Mr. McCauley reviewed the recommendation by the Parks and Recreation Commission on citizen input for park improvements. A plan was distributed with the agenda regarding the long- term parks capital plan and specific park improvements to be instituted. It was also recommended to the Council that a direct mailing be made to residents within two blocks of the park to be improved within one week of the proposed meetings. 9h. REPORT ON CODE ENFORCEMENT It was reported that about 40 complaints were pending on the hotline that the Neighborhood Liaison has handled. She has been receiving 6 to 8 complaints per day. The plan is to schedule handling complaints on '/2 days on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, with the balance of the week spent on the sweep some complaints, depending on their nature may be handled by others. 6/22/98 -13- 9i. RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING GRANT APPLICATION TO MINNESOTA AMATEUR SPORTS COMMISSION Mr. McCauley discussed that grant funding is available and a motion was in favor to authorize a grant application to Minnesota Amateur Sports Commission. RESOLUTION NO. 98-111 Councilmember Carmody introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING GRANT APPLICATION TO MINNESOTA AMATEUR SPORTS COMMISSION The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by Councilmember Hilstrom. Motion passed unanimously. 10.
