Kristen Mann. Also present were City Manager Gerald Splinter and Personnel Coordinator

Planning Session
Mayor Paulson reviewed this evening's agenda which included developing a mission
statement, priority review, visioning exercise, and policy formation. Councilmember Scott
distributed a mission statement and objectives which she had drafted. Mayor Paulson
distributed his copy of a draft mission statement. He reviewed the components of what he
would like to see in a mission statement and the process to be used for this evening's
meeting. The Council proceeded to discuss and draft a mission statement which needs to
be refined and will be reviewed again by the city council. The Council agreed the
communications task force should have a part in reviewing the final draft of the mission
statement.
Mayor Paulson directed a review and discussion of city priorities. The city manager
reviewed the prioritization processes used in 1991 and 1992, and proceeded to review three
main issues of concern to city staff. The Council discussed the issue of diversity, its impact
on the community, and ways to address it. There was additional discussion on a "City Image
Program" and infrastructure issues and a possible bond issue (its timing and impact). Some
council members expressed concern that politics might enter into the discussion on a bond
issue, and the City Council agreed that politics should not be part of the consideration of
any bond election. Staff was asked to prepare a preliminary report on a process to address
infrastructure issues.
Mayor Paulson proceeded to direct a visioning exercise, explaining the process and
requesting each member to independently visualize what they would like the community to
look like and what positive changes people would be reading about in Brooklyn Center in
the year 2000 and beyond. Following independent preparation of positive changes, Council
proceeded to categorize each of the items suggested by the members present. These items
were categorized into municipal operations /public facilities; finance and
7/21/93 -1-

statement outlining the City's goals and objectives for addressing diversity. The Council
expressed interest in following this process for each of the areas brought forth during the
visioning exercise.
There was further discussion regarding the process for pursuing a bond election.
Mayor Paulson provided some concluding remarks regarding having a vision.

1992 ANNUAL REPORTS FROM THE SHINGLE CREEK WATERSHED
MANAGEMENT COMMISSION AND THE WEST MISSISSIPPI WATERSHED
COMMISSION
The City Manager explained Brooklyn Center is part of two watershed commissions, the
Shingle Creek Watershed Management Commission and the West Mississippi Watershed
Management Commission. He stated the 1992 annual reports from these commissions have
been submitted for Council review and acceptance.
The Director of Public Works reviewed the area encompassed by each district and the State
requirement to prepare annual reports for each. He also reviewed the responsibilities and
duties of the Watershed Commissions in reviewing construction projects, assuring
conformance with their standards and making recommendations. He stated the City is in
the process of preparing a local water management plan which will compliment the
Commission's plan.
Councilmember Mann questioned funding for the Watershed Districts. The Director of
Public Works explained funding is allocated 50% on the basis of area and 50% of the tax
capacity of the nine cities involved in the JPA. He explained that the city's annual costs of
participating in these organizations is paid from the Storm Drange Utility.
There was a motion by Councilmember Rosene and seconded by Councilmember Scott to
accept the 1992 annual reports from the Single Creek Watershed Management Commission
and the West Mississippi Watershed Commission. The motion passed unanimously.
DISCUSSION OF RFP FOR TOWING SERVICE (REQUEST OF COUNCILMEMBER
MANN
Councilmember Mann expressed concern the City is using a towing service they are currently
in litigation with, The City Attorney stated this case was referred to the League of
Minnesota Insurance Trust and is not yet resolved.
Councilmember Mann stated she realizes the costs do not warrant an RFP but she was
concerned about comments made by Mr. Cardinal in his court testimony indicating "...they
don't give contracts, nobody does. Nobody gives written contracts any more, they just give
it to their buddy..." Councilmember Mann stated she does not think this is right and an RFP
should be considered so any one of the fine towing companies in the City can submit a bid.
Councilmember Kalligher asked if Cardinal Towing and West Towing are the only services
with storage facilities that meet Police Department requirements. The Police Chief stated
they are. He explained the Department's current policy to use these two towing companies
on a rotating basis, and this decision traditionally resides with his office. He further stated
for five years West Towing was used exclusively until March of 1993 at which time Cardinal
Towing was included.
6/28/93 - 9 -
CORRECTION
Councilmember Rosene asked if the Council could request RFP's from only Brooklyn Center
towing services, or if it had to be opened to companies from all communities. The City
Attorney stated it may not be lawful to restrict the RFP to Brooklyn Center towing services,
however, a prompt response clause could be included which would require proximity but not
necessarily residency.
Councilmember Mann said "Well, I thought public safety was part of the issue here too about
towing, and I have a real concern here. If you look in court records when Mr. Cardinal is asked
about if he had read one of our City ordinances, he can't read. How does he find these
addresses to pick up these trucks? Mr. Cardinal ?"
The City Manager stated there are a great number of towing services in Brooklyn Center but not
many have the required storage capability in a secured yard that is reasonably convenient to the
public. He reviewed the four larger towing services in the area.
Councilmember Rosene stated he would normally agree with Councilmember Mann's suggestion
to require an RFP process to assure the best quality and price, but in this case, it may be
creating more problems than would be solved. He further stated he has talked with Mr.
Cardinal who indicated he has all of the required licenses, and not all other towing services do.
Councilmember Scott stated she does not feel an RFP is necessary in this case, but there may
be other licensed towing services who have adequate storage. She suggested staff contact other
towing services to see if they are interested in working with the City. If they are, they can
contact the Police Chief and be rotated into the schedule.
Councilmember Mann agreed with this suggestion.
Mayor Paulson said a "level playing field" was needed so there is no favoritism.
The Police Chief reported a survey had been done less than a year ago on the cost for towing
services which indicates Cardinal Towing and West Towing are the lowest available.
Council consensus was reached to direct staff to contact other towing services and inform them
of the City's need for towing services and secured storage.
PUBLIC HEARING
REGARDING PROPOSED STORM WATER POND, PARK AND RIDE FACILITY AND
PARK DEVELOPMENT IN THE SOUTHWESTERLY QUADRANT OF THE I-
694 /BROOKLYN BOULEVARD INTERCHANGE
The City Manager stated on May 24, 1993, the City Council adopted a resolution calling for a
public hearing regarding the City's proposed storm water pond, MTC's proposed park and ride
facility and possible additional park land. These improvements are proposed for the
southwesterly quadrant of the I- 694 /Brooklyn Boulevard Interchange.

CITY IIALL COUNCIL CHAMBERS
CALL TO ORDER
The Brooklyn Center City Council met in special work session and was called to order by
Mayor Todd Pa'al_son at 7;05 p, m. -
MOLL CALL
Mayor Todd Paulson, Councilmembers Celia Scott, Barb Kalligher and Kristen Mann.
Councilmember Dave Rosene was excused from tonight's meeting. Also present were
Director of Public Works Sy Knapp, Director of Community Development Brad Hoffman
and Q)uncil Secretary Debbie Wolfe.
STAFF REPORT REGARDING PARK & RIDE SITES
The Director of Public Works introduced representatives from MTC - Aaron Isaacs and
Scott Thompson, and representatives from Strgar- Roscoe- Fausch - Tim Phenow and Ferrol
Robinson; who will answer questions from the Council and assist with additional information
for the presentation.
The Director of Public Works reviewed for the Council a report providing responses to the
issues raised at the June 28, 1993, public hearing including analyses of optional locations
suggested at that hewing, a letter from Aaron Isaacs of the MTC, a letter from Mary A.
Olsen, a resident within the project area, and a traffic count and turning movement study
information as developed by Engineering staff.
Strgar- Roscoe. Fausch presented traffic analyses and several new plan layouts.
The Director of Public Works reported there were 16 issues raised by citizens who spoke
at the June 28, 1993, public hearing, along with staff comments as follows:
Issue No. _1 - What would be the tax impact of the Park and Ride facility? Why retirc
taxable property?
Total Property Taxes
Pgid in 1993
Storm Water Pond (6 properties) $ 10,659.72
Park & Ride Site (9 properties) 19
Total $ 30,008.06
8/2/93 -1-
The Director of Public Works explained if only the storm water pond is built, staff assumes
the City needs to buy five homes and the four acre vacant parcel, if the Park and Ridc
facility is also built, MTC would share in the costs of buying one of those five homes.
The Director of Public Works stated these properties are now in a transitional stage and
without government involvement, this area can be expected to continue to de;turiotate over
an extended period of time. It is expected that any plan for redevelopment by private
developers would need to be subsidized by T1F or some other public funds. The decision
to retire taxable property is one which must sometimes be made when it is found to be the
most cost - effective way to provide a needed public facility.
Councilmember Kalligher questioned the number of properties that needed to be purchased.
The Director of Public Works responded five properties would have to be purchased- by the
City and the remaining one property would be a joint purchase with MTC. Councilmember
Kalligher asked if MTC would pay for acquisition cost, relocation, and engineering costs
associated with the Park & Ride. The Director of Public Works responded M'FC: would
cover these costs,
Is No. 2 - What will be the impact on property values for surrounding properties?
The Director of Public Works stated the answer will be the result of how carefully the
project is designed, constructed, and operated. MTC has requested the City to take the lead
to acquire the properties, develop plans, and supervise construction. The City will design
and build the facilities to be "good neighbors" with adjacent properties.
Councilmember Kalligher asked if the facility would be similar to the one on 69th Avenue.
Tho Director of Public Works said it would and a video tape is available for Council viewing
this evening if they wish to see the type of site that would be constructed.
Issue_ No. 3 - Existing traffic problems on 65th Avenue (traffic volume, back -up from signals,
accidents, etc.)
The Director of Public Works reported during the week of July 19, 1993, traffic volume
counts were taken on 65th Avenue - just west of 65th Avenue and on 65th Avenue between
Marlin Drive and Indiana Avenue. He further reported the average daily traffic at these
locations was 3,564 and 3,404, respectively. Turning movement counts were also taken for
all vehicles making the eastbound approach to the Brooklyn Boulevard/65th Avenue signal
system during A.M. and P.M. peak hours. There was no stacking on 65th Avenue to
northbound Brooklyn Boulevard due to ramp buildup. All vehicles cleared intersection at
each cycle.
$/2193 -2,
Issue No. 4 - Traffic impacts (volume,congestion, safety, etc) of Park and Ride operation.
Ferrol Robinson from Str 8 ar- Roscoe- Fausch (SRF) presented an analysis of the traffic
impacts as a result of the study conducted. Mr. Robinson stated 60 % of the traffic is within
a one hour peak period in the morning and evening.
Councilmember Scott asked where the space for the extra turn lane would come from. The
Director of Public Works responded it is part of the plan developed with Hennepin County
and MTC. The Park & Ride facility would be moved slightly to make room for the extra
lane.
Councilmember Kalligher asked if there was a plan for an extra if the Park & Ride
facility was not built, The Director of Public Works responded f1cnnepin County may add
one in the future but the City would have to pay half the cost.
Councilmember Scott asked if the street was wide enough for buses to make the corner.
Aaron Isaacs from MTC stated the location of the proposed Park & Ride facility allows
enough space for buses to make the turns. He added MTC does not try to put its drivers
in difficult positions.
Issug_No. S - Because of high traffic wilumes "...Brooklyn Blvd is not the right place for
single family homes..." (rioting safety problems, air pollution, noise levels, etc.).
The Director of Public Works asserted alternative full development based on existing zoning
would create more traffic, congestion, air pollution, and noise than the proposed Park and
Ride facility.
I ssue No. 6 - If Park and Ride is "too successful" the overflow could Cause a new scat of
problems.
The Director of public Works stated while it is possible that the demand for Park and Ride
parking spaces may exceed the capacity of the lot, Park and Ride patrons are "repeat
Customers" who are fully aware of conditions on a day to day basis. He added as one facility
becomes filled up, patrons find other options so this would be a self-monitoring/self-
controlling issue.
Councilmember Kailigher asked if patrons would be allowed to park on City streets if the
lot was Rill_ The Director of Public Works responded with the six hour parking restrictions
it would not work for most patrons to park on the street and they would, probably stop
parking on the street if they are given one ticket.
Issue Nn. 7 - Various questions regarding bus traffic patterns: i.e. the ability of MTC buses
to maneuver through the proposed facility, to turn onto 65th Avenue, delays through the
65th Avenue/Brooklyn Boulevard intersection and onto the HOV ramp.
8/2/93 - 3
The Director of Public Works pointed out MTC and SRF have a great deal of experience
in developing plans for Park & Ride facilities and MTC staff is confident this plan will work
well. He added Hennepin County Public Works staff has advised they are able to reprogram
signals to give higher priority to approaches where buses from Park & Ride facilities enter.
Regarding the ability of buses to enter the HOV ramp, the Director of Public Works stated
some minor geometric changes were (and are) included in the proposed design layout, and
DOT or MnDOT if this p ill be completed by
i�.c facility is built. p P
Issue No. - Size of Park and Ride facility (i.e, 200 -235 spaces).
The Director of Public Works explained MTC would prefer a plan with 235 spaces, but
states their minimum need is for 200 spaces.
Issue No,9 - Possible increase in crime, vandalism, etc. (Note: the speaker assumed that the
Park and Ride facility would be so heavily screened from Brooklyn Boulevard, that it could
not be seen or monitored from Brooklyn Boulevard).
The Public Works Director noted plan modifications have been made to assure the proposed
facility can be seen and monitored from Brooklyn Boulevard. Brooklyn Park Police Chief
Dori Davis and Dir ector of Service Dave Johnson reported they have experienced very few
problems with crime or vandalism at the two Park & Ride facilities in Brooklyn Park.
Councilmember Kalligher asked if there would be a public phone at the Park & Ride lot and
Aaron Isaacs responded MTC always tries to put a public phone in Park & aide lots.
Issue No . n - What assurance do citizens have that plantings and landscape
berms will
actually be completed and that they will be properly maintained?
have an opportunit to assure proper
i Works stated the Cit pp tY
The Director of Publ h' will
design and supervise construction. He, pointed out MTC has established a record for high -
level maintenance of their facilities.
C.ouncilmember ICalligher suggested photographs be provided at the next public hearing to
show residents what the proposed project would look like.
Issue N it - Objections to possible commercial use (for convenience store or daycare
facility) on the Park & Ride site.
The Director of Public Works explained no decisions on commercial use have been made
and MTC favors this concept because it could provide services to MTC patrons and to the
n e i ghborhood, p rovide revenue to help pay the costs for maintaining the facility, provide
vi
some level of on -site monitoring and has the possibility of having the tenant p ro de
maintenance, snow plowing, sweeping, etc. services.
8f2/93 .4- 0
Councilmember Scott asked about the commercial use. She stated if it was acceptable to
the Council it would be nice to have a commercial use included such as a daycare center.
She believes daycare center would be better than any other type of use.
e ves
The Community Development Director stated the decision for commercial use would have
to be made prior to construction.
Aaron Isaacs stated MTC is in favor of a daycare center and MTC would consider a price
reduction on the land.
Councilmember Scott added there is a shortage of daycare available in the northern suburbs
and this would be a good location. - = --
Issue No. 12 - Previous request (15 years ago) for stop signs at 65th /Indiana was denied.
The Director of Public Works reported the traffic counts do not justify a stop sign.
(Couneilmember Kalligher added possibly a stop sign could be used as a bargaining issue in
this area.
Issue No. 13 - House(s) on 65th Avenue have been hit by vehicles.
The Director of Public Works stated the City has not been able to get details on this
accident(s).
N 14 - Alternate site su ggestions.
Issue o.
The Director of Public Works stated five other sites were suggested by residents but the
proposed site was found to be most acceptable by MTC and City staff.
Issue No. IS - Notices were sent only to those property owners within 300 feet of the
proposed site.
The Director of Public Works explained the City's policy concerning codes and ordinances
for proposed zoning code amendments, site plan approval, etc. was followed for notification
op g
of residents. He added in the future those residents who signed the petition, or who spoke
and identified themselves at the public hearing will also be added to the notification list.
Maynr Paulson requested notice of the public hearing also be put in the newspaper.
Issue No. 16 - Need for a timely decision.
The Director of Public Works stated staff agrees a decision should be made as soon as
possible so property owners and tenants know what their status is, and the City and MTC
can schedule the implementation plan. He added MTC would like completion by 1954.
8/2/93 - 5 -
The Director of Public Works stated staff would like Council direction to hold another
public informational meeting to present residents with updated information and answer any
questions. He suggested holding the meeting sometime in August as more meetings may
have to be scheduled.
Councilmember Scott suggested staff have good plans to show the residents so they can get
a good idea of what the Park & Bide site will actually look like.
The Council agreed to have staff put this item on the agenda for the next Council meeting.
BROOKLYN BOULEVARD TASK FARCE
The Community Development Dirwtor presented the need to discuss the appointment of
a task force to work with BRW in the formulation of a streetscape plan for Brooklyn
Boulevard. The proposal suggests a very short process. Staff suggests makeup of the task
force include up to fifteen members. He stated members should be concerned with the
northern part of Brooklyn Boulevard as well as the southern part and a good representation
of business and residents should be included in the task force. He added staff proposes the

and that this subject is off the topic. tic explained there is an appropriate time to address
this topic, but it should be put on the agenda for discussion.

session, as printed and add this topic as discussion item llc died for lack of a scculid.

term. Mayor Paulson agreed and added this would allow Trayce Olsen to reapply for
another position next year on a commission that needs her for better gender balance.

DISCUSSION ITEMS
RE OF TH,E FINANCIAL COMMISSION REGARDING THE
ORC AWZATIONAL EVALUATION PROCESS
The City Manager explained the progress made by the Financial Commission regarding the
organization of the City of Brooklyn Center as to its effectiveness. He covered the three
main areas of interest which are as follows: 1) evaluation of potential for administrative
structure reorganization; 2) evaluation of the supervision/management and other staffing
levels; and 3) service evaluation process.
Councilmember Kalligher asked if there would be more information available regarding this
issue and if it would be available in time to be considered in the budget process. The: City
Manager responded there would be more information forthcoming.
There was a motion made by Councilmember Rosene and seconded by Councilmember
Scott to accept this report and motion from the Financial Commission.
Mr. Donn Escher of the Brooklyn Center Financial Commission stated the Financial
Commission is not opposed to item 3) service evaluation process, but the Commission ncctib
more information to make any decisions.
Councilmember Mann stated Total Quality Management (TQM) is important but expressed
her concern that many companies have given up on TQM. She furtlicr stated applying
quality techniques to isolated systems or programs is not enough, and government
organizations must see themselves as interconnected, interactive, and interdependent. In her
opinion, our new culture involves continuous learning and everyone, not just management,
mmst share responsibility for improving the product of service and be empowered to do so.
She added responsibility will not be taken if people are afraid of making mistakes or working
themselves out of a job, and if TQM is seen as only a way to cut costs and lay people off,
it will be a waste of time and money. She commented there must be new ways of measuring
performance and a process for developing them and the Council must also recognize that
the process of improving quality takes time.
Mayor Paulson stated he is not all that familiar with Total Quality Management and asked
the Council if anyone wanted to respond to Councilmember Mann's statement.
The City Manager explained TQM is a process - oriented, results- driven organizational
philosophy and management approach which brings about results in satisfying the goals of
the organization as well as the needs of the community.
Councilmember Rosene asked if there could be some in- service training on this subject, to
which the City Manager responded there most likely would be. He added staff is looking
into quotes for this service,

The motion passed unanimously.
PROPOSED PARK AND RIDE FACILITY
The City Manager indicated the Council conducted a public hearing on June 28, 1993, the
proposed Park and Ride Facility and tabled consideration to allow further research. He
stated staff, as requested by Council, has prepared a report responding to the issues
discussed at the public hearing and evaluating alternative locations. He stated if Council
wishes to continue consideration of this proposal, it is recommended they direct staff to
conduct one or more discussion meetings with citizens and then schedule another public
hearing to discuss the proposal,
The City Manager added the staff would like to make the following comments regarding
costs: MTC will be responsible for paying all costs of dcvclopment, construction,
maintenance, etc,, while costs for developmont of the adjacent storm water pond will be paid
for by the City. He added estimation of these costs will be based on the final decision
regarding the facility and because this final decision has not been made, cost distribution
cannot be shown,

about: traffic back -up and flow patterns around such a facility, as well as the concerns of
neighbors due to increased traffic,
There was a motion by Councilmember Mann and seconded by Councilmember Scott to
direct staff to conduct one or more discussion meetings with the affected neighbors and
citizens,

Xerxes is Incoming a main thoroughfare and it is the first time you can exit frorn tha bridge.
He said neither he nor his neighbors had been notified of the proposed Park and Ride
facility at this location. He also expressed concern because of the school in the area. He
suggested everyone along 65th Avenue from Brooklyn Boulevard to Xerxes Avenue he
notified,
The Director of Public Works responded notices had been sent to those within 300 feet of
the site in accordance with City codes.
There was some discussion on the possibility of extending the notification area in this
instance, where to "draw the line," and the possibility of using newspaper articlQ.s aml
leaflets.
8/9/93 -9 -
The Director of Public works commented on the cost to send out several thousand notices
if the area is expanded.
Councilmember Scott suggested any notices that were sent out should include a statement
indicating all are welcome to attend meetings, even those beyond the boundaries of where
notices were sent.
The Director of Public Works explained the 300 foot notification area is based in the Zoning
ordinance, and he recommended this standard be maintained in this instance, and in

Voting in favor: Chairperson Sander, Commissioners Hilstrom, Holmes, Johnson, Mickelson,

DISCUSSION ITEMS
The Secretary reviewed a draft ordinance amending chapter 34 (Sign Ordinance) regarding
signs in multiple family zoning districts which would eliminate reference to "three or more
buildings ".
The Secretary explained this amendment is a result of discussions with the new owners of
the Northlyn Apartments which contain only two buildings, but 102 units and, therefore, not
entitled to a free - standing sign. He further explained HiCrest Apartments, four buildings
with only 54 units, is entitled to a free - standing sign. He stated the Council had discussed
the fairness of this ordinance and referred it to the Planning Commission for their review
and recommendation. He added the Council has also directed staff and the Planning
Commission to consider aesthetic criteria for signs, especially in conjunction with the
Brooklyn Boulevard Study.
The Secretary discussed at length sign criteria that could be considered such as material used
for wall base, height, lighting, size of sign in conjunction with the building, use of neon,
impact on surrounding area, etc.
Commissioner Hilstrom asked why the original ordinance contained a limit of three buildings
in the first place. The Secretary responded he did not know, but perhaps the city used a
model ordinance as a basis for their own that contained this type of provision.
Commissioner Willson expressed support for requiring sign material similar to that of the
building and wondered if a planter type base could be included.
The Secretary reviewed various signs and their locations, as well as types of lighting options.
Commissioner Johnson questioned the number of signs allowed in the case of multiple
entrances since the ordinance only allows two. The Secretary gave several examples of
apartment locations with multiple entrances that still only had two signs. He added the Twin
7 -29 -93 4
Lake North Condominiums were actually located in Crystal, though the entrances are in
Brooklyn Center. He stated they must comply with Brooklyn Center's two -sign limit.
Commissioner Willson expressed support of the amendment and suggested the sign
ordinance be expanded in the future to include aesthetic considerations.
There was a motion by Commissioner Mickelson and seconded by Commissioner Willson
to recommend approval of An Ordinance Amending Chapter 34 of the City Ordinances
Relating to Signs for Multiple Family Dwellings and suggest to the Council that aesthetic
considerations be included and further addressed. The motion passed unanimously.
OTHER BUSINESS
The Secretary reported the next Planning Commission agenda will include a request for
Special Use Permit and Site Plan Approval for a Holiday Gas Station at Highway 252 and
66th Avenue. He reviewed a history of previous site plans approved for this site including
FINA and PDQ, and indicated the Holiday Gas Station plans will probably meet all of the
original considerations for approval.
Commissioner Holmes requested information on previous site plan requests for the
Commission's review.
Chairperson Sander expressed concern about putting a gas station on that particular site
because of the heavy traffic so close to a residential area.
The Secretary reported on an upcoming agenda item for a PUD for the Brookdale Chrysler
dealership. He stated approval of this rezoning request would result in the need to amend
the Comprehensive Plan. He added the proposed PUD is consistent with the recent
Brooklyn Boulevard Study and the Maxfield Commercial/Industrial Study.
Commissioner Johnson commented on the need to resolve the covenant issues with the 81
homeowners.
Commissioner Reem reported she will be out of town and will be unable to attend the
August 12th meeting.
Commissioner Mickelson suggested the Planning Commission encourage the City's Economic
Development Coordinator, the Economic Development Commission of the Chamber of
Commerce, and the Chamber of Commerce to develop a policy encouraging business to
develop in Brooklyn Center.
Commissioner Mickelson stated the Planning Commission should, as a body, encourage
development. Commissioner Reem agreed and stated further that special efforts should be
made to reconstruct buildings that have deteriorated, especially along Brooklyn Boulevard.

1994 CITY MANAGER'S PRELIMINARY BUDGET AND PROPERTY TAX LEVY REPORT
DEPT. APPR V
Gerald G aiQ plinter, City Manager
MANAGER'S REVIEW/RECOMAIENDATION:
No comments to supplement this report Comments below /attached
SUMMARY EXPLANATION: (supplemental sheets attached -X—)
O Attached is a summary of the 1994 City Manager's revised Preliminary Budget which is labeled as
Version 1. Version 1 is the budget as it was submitted on August 16 with an additional $12,302 for
increased Fire Relief Association pension contribution. The City Council requested an alternate budget
which included sufficient funds to add two police officers while continuing to operate an independent
dispatch operation. This is labeled as Version 2. These preliminary budgets are designed to give the
City Council sufficient information to approve a preliminary 1994 property tax levy and budget total
by the September 15, 1993, certification deadline established by State law. Counties are responsible
under the same law and regulation for mailing parcel specific tax notices notifying property owners of
the required hearings to be held by cities, schools, counties, and other taxing districts between
November 15 and December 20 of each year. Under State law, cities must finalize their property tax
levies and budgets prior to December 30, 1993.
The 1994 preliminary budget is being submitted based on preliminary estimates of revenues and
expenditures. Please understand these are preliminary figures which must be finalized in October and
November and, as in past years, are subject to considerable modification and change. The 1994
preliminary maximum budget levy of $5,845,867, as shown in Version 2, would increase taxes on a
$73,000 Brooklyn Center home by $33.86 per year or $2.82 per month. During October and November
we will have more reliable figures on which to finalize the 1994 proposed budget. As in previous
years, the City Council should understand whatever you set the preliminary tax levy at for the 1994
budget, it cannot be exceeded at a later time. You can levy less than what you establish in the
preliminary 1994 levy but you cannot increase it. While you certify the 1994 preliminary proposed
budget amount in the same fashion as the levy, the law allows you to increase the total budget amount
• but not the property tax levy amount.
There are a number of significant factors which contribute to the complexity of preparing the 1994
preliminary budget and ,levy report and they are as follows:
• 1. The 1994 preliminary budget, Version 2, calls for an increase in General Fund expenditures over
1993 of $516,566 (4.88 %). A major increase in the 1994 preliminary budget has occurred due
to increased capital outlay requests from all departments. The increased capital outlay amounts
to $279,410 of the total budget increase of $516,566. The budget Version 2 includes the
addition of two police officers financed tax increases and two finance by saving from changing
to the Hennepin Count dispatch system. The two proposed officers would start employment
em to
Y P Y P P P Y
upon actual transfer of the dispatch function during 1994.
2. The 1994 preliminary budget reflects the auditor's recommendation of establishing a central
garage internal service fund.
3. Because there will be a general election in 1994, and there was none in 1993, the elections
budget increases significantly ($20,400).
4. Last year the City Council established a program of phasing out the certificates of indebtedness
sold in previous years. The 1994 preliminary budget calls for the use of surplus debt service
fund money to pay off all existing outstanding certificates of indebtedness. This reduced the
1994 preliminary levy.
5. This year we propose to initiate the use of an estimated 2 % uncollectible allowance for property
tax revenues. This is intended to finance any anticipated shortfall in property tax collections,
which we estimate to be $115,019. This proposal increases the 1994 preliminary levy.
• 6. Lodging tax revenues have decreased. This is largely due to the loss in revenue from the Park
Inn and this amounts to a loss of $40,000 in revenue.
7. Liquor licenses are r
q e o ected at $13,200 less than 1994 again due to the f act that Park Inn has
projected
g
not renewed its license and we question whether they will renew in 1994.
8. In 1993 we estimated recreational revenues, largely due to water slide revenue, at too high of
a level. We are adjusting those revenues down $131,003 and also reducing expenditures a
significant amount as our expenditures in 1 for h r
g p 993 o the Ovate slide were also estimated at too
high a level.
9. Fines and forfeitures are declining 28 % from the 1993 estimate. This is a continuation of a
four -year trend towards lower court fines. Revenues have been stable at the new projected rate
for about 18 months and so we may have hit the bottom of this trend, but it does represent a
$56,000 decrease from 1993.
One of the additional complicating factors in the 1994 budget will be the tax impact on homestead
single- family homes will be magnified by the fact that our commercial and industrial tax base has shrunk
from its 1993 levels. Because commercial and industrial properties pay a significantly higher property
tax rate as a percent of value, when their value drops, those taxes shift to other properties and in this
case largely to single - family homestead properties. Our assessor points out the 3.91 % increase in our
• 2
• overall budget will result in an increase of 17.83% in the tax on a $73,000 Brooklyn Center home. A
significant portion of this increase is due to a shift in taxes from commercial and industrial to homestead
properties because of the reduced value and lowered classification rates of commercial and industrial
properties in Brooklyn Center. This is a phenomena which is impacting virtually all communities. As
the Council reviews the 1994 preliminary budget, you can use a rule of thumb that each $100,000 in
levy (spending) equates to a $4.18 annual tax increase on an average $73,000 home.
I recommend the City Council approve the attached resolution contained in Version 1, setting the 1994
preliminary property tax levy for Brooklyn Center at $5,801,334 and the preliminary 1994 budget total
at $11,188,663. Under State law, the preliminary property tax levy cannot be exceeded once the City
Council approves the preliminary budget. The budget figure can be exceeded later if authorized by the
City Council. Because you can only lower the preliminary property tax levy, we recommend the 1994
preliminary levy be set on the high side to allow you flexibility in considering the proposed 1994 budget
and levy in December. It is my intention to submit to the City Council the City Manager's Proposed
Budget for 1994 by mid - October. This document will have more reliable figures in which you can
make intelligent and informed decisions. This preliminary document is designed strictly to establish the
required preliminary property tax levy and budget figures to comply with State notice requirements.
Again this year your staff will be working closely with the Financial Commission in reviewing the
proposed 1994 budget.
RECOMMENDED CITY COUNCIL ACTION
I recommend your favorable consideration of one of the attached resolutions establishing the preliminary
1994 levy and budget figures to be adopted prior to September 15, 1993, in accordance with State law.

RESOLUTION APPROVING PURCHASE OF HAZARDOUS MATERIAL STORAGE CABINETS FOR USE AT
CITY GARAGE, AND AMENDING THE 1993 BUDGET TO APPROPRIATE FUNDS THEREFORE
DEPT. APPROVAL:
Knapp, ifirector of Public Works
MANAGER'S REVIEW/RECOMNIENDATION:
No comments to supplement this report Comments below /attached
SUMMARY EXPLANATION: (supplemental sheets attached Yes
At its 7/12/93 meeting the City Council received a report from Environmental
Process, Inc., the consulting firm which conducted the Air Quality studies at
City Hall and at the City Garage.
Among the findings of the City Garage report was that the existing hazardous
materials storage area does not meet Uniform Fire and Building Codes. It was
recommended that as an interim measure, until a permanent solution could be
implemented, "Separate storage provisions should be immediately provided to store
flammable materials."
At that meeting it was estimated that constructing an interim hazardous materials
storage area could cost as much as $20,000. The Council requested that less
costly alternatives be investigated.
The attached memo from Public Works Superintendent Dave Peterson details an
interim plan which relies on a combination of controlling inventory to an on -hand
minimum, and the purchase of five flammable liquid storage cabinets to
temporarily meet compliance. The estimated cost of these cabinets is $4,300.
The memo notes that this plan is based on the assumption that the Garage will be
remodelled within the next two years. If the proposed remodelling project does
not go forward, then serious consideration should be given to construction of an
interim storage area. This is because the storage cabinet alternative relies
heavily on maintaining very minimum inventories of materials. Purchasing
materials (paints, solvents, herbicides, etc.) in smaller quantities can be more
expensive than purchasing in bulk. Some materials are simply not available in
small quantities. Maintaining compliance will require constant monitoring and
careful control.
Because one of these cabinets would be used to store flammable materials used by
the Public Utilities division, primarily the water utility, it is recommended
that one cabinet, at a cost of $860, be charged to the Water Utility fund. It is
recommended that the remaining cost, $3,440, be appropriated from the General
Fund contingency account.
RECOMMENDED CITY COUNCIL ACTION
A resolution authorizing the purchase of five flammable liquid storage cabinets,
amending the 1993 budget to appropriate funds from the Contingency Account, and
approving an expenditure from the Water Utility Fund is attached for Council
consideration.
•
MEMORANDUM
Date: August 10, 1993
To: Sy Knapp
From: Dave Peterson
Subject: Hazardous Materials Storage Area Inventory
As of 8/02/93 the inventory of hazardous material storage needs has been completed.
Classification of the working inventory of flammable and combustible liquids was completed on
8/05/93.
M.S.D. sheets are in the M.S.D.S. book which is located in the office of the Dispatcher at the
Public Works garage.
The normal working inventory of flammable liquids /hazardous waste will meet compliance with
UBC table 9 -A for exempt flammable /combustible liquid (including herbicides) storage during the
interim period between now and when a flammable liquid storage room is built. This is
anticipated to occur when the Public Works garage is remodeled within the next two years. This
task will be accomplished principally through minimum inventory control on flammable liquids,
traffic paint, thinners and purchasing 5 flammable liquid storage cabinets to store needed
quantities at a cost of approximately $4300.
This plan is presented as an interim seasonal plan and will meet our needs temporarily. If the
public works remodeling project does not go forward in the next 2 years, a flammable
liquid /hazardous waste storage room will have to be constructed at a cost of $20,000 plus.
This plan is submitted by Dave Peterson, Bob Cahlander and Clay Larson. Ron Boman,
Brooklyn Center Fire Chief was involved at all stages and approves this plan.

i SUMMARY EXPLANATION: (supplemental sheets attached Yes
At its 8/9/93 meeting the City Council directed staff to prepare additional
information and conduct informational meetings with property owners in the area
of the proposed Park and Ride facility at Brooklyn Boulevard and 65th Avenue.
To proceed with these meetings and have the technical ability to deal with issues
raised by citizens, including development of optimal plan layouts, etc., we will
need the assistance of MTC staff (they are ready and willing to provide needed
assistance) and assistance from Strgar Roscoe Fausch (SRF), the engineers for the
storm water pond and for the Park and Ride.
Also, relative to the City's acquisition of the 4.1 acre vacant property for the
storm water pond, the property owners have requested that the City provide more
information to allow re- evaluation of the wetlands issues before entering into
final purchase negotiations, and the City Attorney recommends that we do so.
Accordingly, we have negotiated the attached proposal with SRF to provide the
technical assistance which is needed for these purposes. Because items 1, 2, 3,
4, 6, 7, and 8 all relate directly to the Park and Ride issue, the City requested
and MTC has agreed that MTC should be fully responsible for those costs,
totalling $9,850. Because item 5 relates directly and only to the storm water
pond, that $3,575 cost should be paid by the City.
