STUDY SESSION
SEPTEMBER 13, 2010
CITY HALL — COUNCIL CHAMBERS
CALL TO ORDER
The Brooklyn Center City Council met in Study Session called to order by Mayor Tim Willson at
6:00 p.m.
ROLL CALL
Mayor Tim Willson and Councilmembers Kay Lasman, Tim Roche, Dan Ryan, and Mark Yelich.
Also present were City Manager Curt Boganey, Director of Fiscal and Support Services Dan
Jordet, Public Works Director /City Engineer Steve Lillehaug, Director of Business and
Development Gary Eitel, Assistant City Manager/Director of Building and Community Standards
Vickie Schleuning, and Carla Wirth, TimeSaver Off Site Secretarial, Inc.
CITY COUNCIL DISCUSSION OF AGENDA ITEMS AND QUESTIONS
Councilmember Yelich requested discussion on Item 6g, Cooperative Agreement for Grant
Funding for the Shingle Creek Restoration Improvement Project, and asked if the engineering
firm has an ecology expert on staff. Public Works Director /City Engineer Steve Lillehaug stated
an engineer has not yet been hired and staff will assure it has an expert on staff.
Councilmember Ryan requested discussion on Item 6f, Bid and Award for the County Road 57
Streetscape Improvements, and asked about design options and the retaining wall along the trail
which makes the project more expensive. City Manager Curt Boganey advised there is no
alternate location for the trail and the retaining wall is required for a relatively short distance.
MISCELLANEOUS
Councilmember Lasman asked about the estimated assessment for the Logan neighborhood. Mr.
Lillehaug stated last year's total was $4,466 and this year it may be within 3% of that figure.
Councilmember Yelich referenced a comment in the staff update about TH252 and asked for an
explanation. Mr. Boganey explained that when this issue was raised initially, to make TH252 a
freeway, it involved closing off the cross streets from Brooklyn Center but the City did not "buy
into" that plan. Councilmember Yelich stated he sees benefits for the City if TH252 becomes a
freeway. Mr. Boganey stated staff's approach is that the City is not against a freeway but it needs
to provide adequate and reasonable local access. The Council agreed this is the correct approach
to take.
09/13/10 -1- DRAFT
Councilmember Roche stated it presents a bit of a "Catch 22" since 65 Avenue and TH252 is
the tenth most dangerous intersection in the State. He noted this location has a lot of commercial
businesses yet there is limited space to accommodate a freeway interchange. Councilmember
Roche indicated it would be nice to have a concept for reintegration into the City at large. Mr.
Boganey stated staff understands and has been advocating to find a solution.
Councilmember Yelich asked if it "shuts the door" if this project is not included in Mn/DOT's
2010 draft plan. Mr. Lillehaug advised the "door is shut" if the City wants something done in the
next five years because Mn/DOT's funding strategies will not accommodate an interchange to
that extent. However, this project could be readdressed when Mn/DOT next looks at its funding
plans. Mr. Lillehaug explained that since Mn/DOT does not have funding for an interchange and
a pedestrian bridge over TH252, it would require City initiative.
Mayor Willson stated he does not want a portion of the City cut off from amenities such, as the
trails, River, and neighborhood.
Mayor Willson questioned the frequency of law enforcement on this corridor to increase safety.
Councilmember Ryan questioned the cost range for a pedestrian bridge. Mr. Lillehaug advised
the cost is significant, estimating a range of $2 million to $5 million. Councilmember Ryan
stated that level of funding is not within the City's ability but it is within the interest of Mn/DOT
to move traffic through this corridor. .
Councilmember Yelich stated his appreciation to staff for the financial report and balance sheet
analysis.
Mayor Willson advised that he will be out of town from September 18 to 26, 2010.

Councilmember Lasman moved and Councilmember Roche seconded to close the Study Session

CAPACITY LEVY FOR THE GENERAL FUND AND DEBT SERVICE
FUNDS AND A MARKET VALUE TAX LEVY FOR THE HOUSING AND
REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY FOR PROPERTY TAXES PAYABLE
2011
Mr. Boganey introduced the item, reviewed the background, and stated the purpose of the
proposed resolution to establish the preliminary property tax levy for the 2011 fiscal year at
$13,911,803. He presented the 2011 preliminary levy and noted this is an increase of $342,831
or 2.53% over the levy payable in 2010.
Director of Fiscal and Support Services Dan Jordet presented the projected impact to residential
property in 2011, noting that it is projected the City's portion of the tax bill for most residential
properties will decrease by $17.41 to $22.91, depending on valuation. Mr. Boganey pointed out
that this only represents the residential portion of the tax base and some commercial, industrial,
and apartment properties will experience a tax increase.
Mayor Willson referenced a recent StarTribune article on cities with affordable housing,
considered to be in the $180,000 range for the metro area, and advised that Brooklyn Center led
the way with 99% of its housing being affordable.
09/13/10 -6- DRAFT
In response to Council's questions, Mr. Jordet explained the property value determines not what
• tax amount that property will pay but determines the proportion of the community's total tax bill
that property will pay.
Mr. Boganey addressed the loss of State revenues through LGA, noting the Legislature
authorized LGA to the City in the amount of $1,510,989 yet the City is budgeting about 40% of
what the current law would provide for LGA and Market Value Homestead Credit combined.
Councilmember Roche moved and Councilmember Lasman seconded to approve RESOLUTION
NO. 2010 -130 Approving a Preliminary Tax Capacity Levy for the General Fund and Debt
Service Funds and a Market Value Tax Levy for the Housing and Redevelopment Authority for

The Council indicated their support for the draft resolution, noting it came about over several
months with input from staff, the Council, and Financial Commission. Mayor Willson noted that
three of the six staff vacancies over the last year have not been filled. He agreed it is a good
compromise but a shame that staff has to be downsized because if that continues services may
need to be eliminated.
.Motion passed unanimously.
2. RESOLUTION NO. 2010 -131 ADOPTING A PRELIMINARY BUDGET
• FOR THE 2011 FISCAL YEAR
Mr. Boganey introduced the item, reviewed the background, and stated the purpose of the

tax levy operations in the amount of $17,409,536. Overall, the general fund budget for 2011 is
designed to increase by 2.49 %.
Councilmember Lasman moved and Councilmember Ryan seconded to approve RESOLUTION
NO. 2010 -131 Adopting a Preliminary Budget for the 2011 Fiscal Year.
Motion passed unanimously.
Mr. Boganey stated this action is on the preliminary levy and budget and in December the
Council will consider the final levy and budget, which cannot be increased but can be decreased.

INTRODUCTION
Hennepin County Department of Public works' Transportation Division (Division)
has as a delegated function and responsibility to maintain a system of
roadways that provide transportation for residents of the County in a safe,
efficient manner. Year around safety requires adequate sight distances and a
minimum operational clear zone that can also accommodate snow storage. The
D ivision has prepared _this._.Recommended - -Ur- ban- Landsc -ape -/streetscape- Guide-7- lnos—
Guidelines) to more consistently and thoroughly respond to questions about
urban landscape /streetscape design practices.
All landscape /streetscape plans must be prepared and signed in accordance with
the Board of Architecture, Engineering, Land Surveying, Landscape Architecture
and Interior Design. The City Engineer shall also approve and sign the title
or cover sheet for those landscape /streetscape plans. The City Engineer must
also evaluate sight distances along the project and assure the Division,. in a
report, that sight distances are adequate.
The placement of obstacles or fixed objects, such as structures, trees, etc.,
' within Hennepin County's right of way shall be cause for the Municipality to
assume legal liability and additional maintenance responsibility through a
Cooperative Agreement.
RECOMMENDED
The following is an alphabetical listing of the Division's recommended
guidelines for l and sca /streetscape design. The criteria listed is not all
inclusive or necessarily complete. Requests for more clarification should be
.addressed to the Division -Engineer or his /her designee. Figure 1 at end
of this document contains a summarization of the recommended operational clear
zone guidelines.
.
Bouleva
The Division prefers a low maintenance boulevard. Snow and ice control
methods may prevent the survival of some desired vegetation. The
Municipality has the responsibility for mowing and the maintenance of
facilities behind the curb.

The Division recommends a sidewalk with a minimum 5 foot width and prefers
the sidewalk be placed 6 feet from the face of curb to accommodate snow
storage.
• Signals Sinning and Other Traffic Control Devices
All traffic control devices must comply with MMUTCD.
For urban cross sections, the Division recommends traffic signs be placed
at least 6 feet from the face of curb to the edge of sign. Sign placement
is preferred behind the sidewalk. The location of utilities should be
considered with regard to future sign placement. In areas where there is
no sidewalk, clearance to the signage should be at least 6 feet from the
curb or edge of shoulder to allow for snow storage and /or future.

Traffic signals shall have the Division's standard type and color. Any
other h r scheme requires prior review and approval by the Division and

• Division. Lead based paint shall amt be used. Paint must comply with
current Mn /DOT specifications.
• Snow Storage
The Division requires minimum operational clear zones for-snow-storage
along the side of the road based on the posted speed limit. The
requirement of an operational clear zone for snow storage.allows the
Division .to. efficiently clear roads of snow and help maintain the road's
traffic carrying capacity. Inadequate snow storage will reduce lane
widths, adversely affect traffic handling capacity of the road and
trucks from using the partially blocked traffic lane' Roads that are not
cleared of snow along the curb to the storm drain can also cause drainage
-problems when the snow melts.
The Division may require that the Municipality obtain an easement if there
is inadequate snow.storage available within the right of way as a result of
landscape /streetscape structure placement. In areas where
landscape %streetscape structures cause inadequate'room to store snow off
the road, the Municipality will be .required to either move or haul away the
snow (see Introduction for legal liability and maintenance requirements).
• Street Lighting
Street lighting must be functional and meet appropriate standards for
illumination. Special consideration should h: given to eliminating glare
and shadows. Questions on lighting should b-: re•13rred to the Division's
Design Section.

• Trees
Trees, in general, can obstruct the view of signs and signals. Prior to
the placement of any tree, sight lines should be evaluated that includes
consideration for fully mature trees and their canopies.
The Division standard does not sanction the planting of trees on County
right of way within the operational clear zone (see operational Clear
Zone).
Planting coniferous trees is discouraged within Hennepin County's right of
way.
Tree grates in sidewalks or paved areas, unless properly installed and
maintained, can be a hazard to pedestrians, people with disabilities, and
snow removal operations, etc. The Municipality assumes all liability for any Y 9

Underground utilities that do not extend above the surface may be placed
within the County's operational clear zone. Above ground utilities,
however, should be placed outside the County's operational clear zone.

Of the six (6) bids received, the lowest bid of $175,233.95 was submitted by Barber
Construction, Inc., of St. Bonifacius, Minnesota. Barber Construction, Inc. has the experience,
equipment and capacity to qualify as the lowest responsible bidder for the project.
Budget Issues:
The bid amount of $175,233.95 is a slight increase from the 2010 budgeted amount (see attached
Resolution — Costs and Revenue tables). The total estimated budget was $175,400.00 and is
amended to $183,533.95, an approximate 4.6 percent increase. The additional funding amount
needed for the sidewalk repairs is recommended to be funded out of the Municipal State Aid
(MSA) fund. Although the bid amount is slightly higher than the estimated amount, we received
six bids, five of which were very competitive.

COUNCIL ITEM MEMORANDUM
• DATE: 21 September 2010
TO: Curt Boganey, City Manager
FROM: Daniel Jordet, Director of Fiscal & Support Services
SUBJECT: Audit Price Proposal for 2010, 2011 and 2012 Fisca ear Audits
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council consider approval by resolution of an agreement to
establish the maximum price for the audit of the City's Comprehensive Annual Financial Report
for the years ending December 31, 2010, 2011 and 2012.
Background:
In January of 2008, the City Council hired the firm of Malloy, Montague, Karnowski,
Radosevich & Co. (MMKR) following an RFP for Auditing Services as is required by Council
policy every six years. In the initial agreement, the fees for the first three years of that
engagement were established as follows and generated the accompanying payments:
Maximum Fee for Basic Audit FY 2007 $ 38,725 Actual Payment $ 38,725
Maximum Fee for Basic Audit FY 2008 $ 39,280 Actual Payment $ 38,575
Maximum Fee for Basic Audit FY 2009 $ 39,850 Actual Payment $ 38,615
Three Year Total Proposed $ 117,855 Actual $ 115,805
The actual payments for basic audit services for the first three years of the engagement have been
$ 2,050 less that the guaranteed maximum. This is a credit to the Assistant Finance Director,
Clara Hilger, and the rest of the Finance Staff for their advance preparation work on each audit.
Past practice has been to negotiate each of the ensuing three years on an annual basis until the
next RFP as they arise. In order to better plan for budgets in the current economic situation,
MMKR was asked to prepare a proposal for the entire three year period remaining before the
next scheduled RFP. They have submitted the following proposal:
Maximum Fee for Basic Audit FY 2010 $ 38,500
Maximum Fee for Basic Audit FY 2011 $ 38,500
Maximum Fee for Basic Audit FY 2012 $ 38,900
Three Year Total Proposed $ 115,900
This effectively stabilizes the City's audit costs for the next three fiscal years should the City
Council accept the proposed fee schedule. A copy of the actual proposal is attached for the
Council's review.
Mission: Ernsurin, an attractive, clean, safe conununiti- that enhances the rlualitp of life and preserves the public trust
COUNCIL ITEM MEMORANDUM
Budget Issues:
Accepting the proposed fee schedule would effectively set the basic audit fees for the next three
years at the same level as expended in the previous three years. Total audit cost for basic audit
services will be no higher than $ 115,900 for fiscal years 2010, 2011 and 2012.

COUNCIL ITEM MEMORANDUM
DATE: September 22, 2010
TO: Curt Bo ane City Manager
g Y� Y g
FROM: Kevin Benner, Chief of Police
SUBJECT: Hennepin County Violent Offender Task Force Co- operative Agreement
Recommendation:
It is recommended that the City Council consider adoption of the Hennepin County Violent
Offender Task Force (VOTF) Co- operative Agreement. The purpose of this agreement is to work
cooperatively with other agencies within Hennepin County in the enforcement of violent
offender laws.
Background:
The Hennepin County Violent Offender Task Force (VOTF) was formed to address violent
crime within the north metropolitan area. By partnering with neighboring agencies in Hennepin
County, VOTF officers have been able to share intelligence and work together to identify and
manage known violent offenders throughout several cities. Currently, Hennepin County Sheriff
deputies are working together with officers from the Brooklyn Center, Brooklyn Park, Golden
Valley, and Richfield police departments to identify the most violent offenders in the north
metropolitan area.
VOTF has also formed partnerships with the Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF)
agency. This federal agency has assigned agents to work with this partnership, thus extending
the range of intelligence made available to VOTF.
In April 2010, the Hennepin County Sheriff's Office invited the Brooklyn Center Police
Department to official participate in this partnership. If the agreement is accepted, the officer
will be able to provide information about known violent offenders in Brooklyn Center and, in
turn, receive information regarding other violent offenders within Hennepin County and beyond.
By working cooperatively, VOTF can obtain the intelligence necessary from multiple agencies to
fight violent crime through the enforcement of violent offender laws.
Budget Issues:
Currently, one sworn police officer from the Brooklyn Center Police Department is assigned to
VOTF from the patrol street crimes unit. A 2010 State grant fund for VOTF provides $16,000 in
salary for this position. This creates a potential savings to the City of $16,000 in 2010.
Council Goals:
Strategic:
1. We will ensure a safe and secure community
Mission: Ensuring an attractive, clean, safe community that enhances the duality of life and preserves the public trust

COUNCIL ITEM MEMORANDUM
DATE: 21 September 2010
TO: Curt Boganey, City Manager
FROM: Daniel Jordet, Director of Fiscal & Support Services
SUBJECT: Financial Commission Recommendation on Mayor and City Council Salaries
Recommendation:
It was recommended by the Financial Commission on 16 August 2010 that the salaries for the
Mayor and City Council remain unchanged for 2011 and 2012. Following a public hearing, it is
recommended that the City Council consider adoption of an ordinance establishing Council
wages for 2011 and 2012.
Background:
Every two years the Financial Commission is required by the City Council Code of Policies to
review the salaries for the Mayor and City Council and recommend any changes that may seem
appropriate. The goal for setting salaries for the Mayor and City Council has been to assure that
the salaries are at or above the median for a specified group of comparison cities. The data on
comparison with those cities for the years 2007 through 2010 is attached.
• The Financial Commission met on Monday, 16 August 2010 to review the attached information
and make their recommendation. After a brief discussion the Commission unanimously
recommended that the Mayor and City Council salaries for 2011 and 2012 remain at the same
level as currently established. The Commission cited the current General Fund budget situation
and the comparative analysis of salaries as reasons for their recommendation.
On 11 January 2010, the Council adopted an ordinance reducing its designated salaries.
According to Minnesota Statutes 415.11, such ordinance will be in effect for 12 months after
which the salary reverts to the previously designated amount. In order to maintain salaries at the
2010 level, the Council must adopt a new ordinance.
On 23 August 2010 the City Council received the report of the Financial Commission and
approved the first reading of an ordinance leaving City Council wages for 2011 and 2012 at their
current levels. The motion adopting that first reading also set Monday, 27 September 2010 as
the date for a public hearing to be held on the issue in accordance with ordinance adoption
procedures. Following the public hearing the Council may consider adoption of the final
ordinance setting Council wages for 2011 and 2012.
Budget Issues:
If the City Council accepts the Financial Commission's recommendations there are no budget
issues to consider.

2.05 Policy and Procedure on Mayor and Council Member Total Compensation •
1. Need for Policy
The community is entitled to a clearly articulated, written description of the policy and
procedure for establishing the total compensation of local elected officials.
2. Policy
A. Service on the City Council is a civic obligation and an honor. The total
compensation of the Mayor and Council Members should, therefore, not
encourage candidacies based on monetary rather than public service objectives.
However, compensation of Brooklyn Center elected officials shall be fair and
equitable in order to attract qualified candidates for local elective office.
B. The propriety of the compensation levels of the Mayor and Council Members
shall be evaluated through comparisons with compensation paid to similar
officials within the seven county metropolitan area.
C. The compensation levels of elected officials should be regularly reviewed and
adjusted to ensure compliance with the objectives of this policy and to avoid the
need for drastic or sudden compensation adjustments.
D. Compensation set pursuant to this policy and procedure shall be deemed to be
total compensation for elected officials of the City with the exception of expense
reimbursement which shall be the same as provided all other City employees.
3. Procedure
A. The City Manager shall biennially prepare a winpensation,report that contains an
analysis of the compensation paid to elected officials of Minneapolis -St. Paul

Subject: hwy 252
Curt,
Can you please add a hwy 252 work session agenda item to Sept 27th meeting.
I understand that unless we as a city take some initiative, nothing will get done to solve hwh 252 problems of congestion,
noise, and public safety. I would like to discuss what the city can do now to get the long term solution moving now. If
that means sponsoring a land use study maybe we can partner with Brooklyn Park to get it done. If you can bring some
cost estimates of a land use study and budget availability for this that would be helpful.
Thank you.
Respectfully,
Mark Yelich

COUNCIL ITEM MEMORANDUM
DATE: September 21, 2010
TO: Curt Boganey, City Manager
THROUGH: Gary Eitel, Director of Business and Development
FROM: Tom Bublitz, EDA/HRA Specialist
SUBJECT: Status of 57 and Logan Site Remediation Activities
The investigations and subsequent remediation activities conducted at the EDA property at 57
and Logan Avenues North (the site), due to contamination from the former Pilgrim Dry Cleaner
operation, are entering the next and presumably final stage.
A brief recap of some of the more recent history of the site and its current status follows:
• Subsurface testing of the site and surrounding neighborhood was done in 2007. In 2008
and 2009 the EDA and Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) conducted sub slab
soil gas tests in area residences which resulted in the installation of radon type removal
systems in four residences where the dry cleaning solvents PCE and TCE were found at
concentrations exceeding the MPCA's indoor air screening values.
• • In October 2008, a Soil Vapor Extraction (SVE) system was installed by the MPCA on
EDA property and near the site of the former Pilgrim Cleaners in an effort to remove
PCE and TCE soil gases at the former Pilgrim site. According to MPCA staff, the SVE
system has essentially completed as much clean up as it can and has essentially run its
course on the site.
• The next and presumably final phase of the MPCA's remediation at the site will use a
technology called "chemical oxidation" to clean up the dry cleaning chemicals in the
ground water. Chemical oxidation involves the injection of sodium permanganate into
the ground water to oxidize PCE and TCE into water and other harmless chemicals. It is
anticipated that this process will start in early October and involve the injection of the
chemicals through small holes drilled in specific areas of the former Pilgrim Cleaners site
and along portions of Logan and 58 Avenues near the site. The MPCA also wants to
keep the SVE system in place during the chemical oxidation phase until it is completed
sometime in early spring 2011.
• Three Fact Sheets prepared by the MPCA addressing 1.Site Update 2.Soi1 Vapor
Extraction and 3.Chemical Oxidation will be mailed to residents in an area designated by
the MPCA. The area is bounded by 59 Avenue North on the north, 55 Avenue on the
south, Humboldt Avenue North on the east and Logan Avenue North on the west. Copies
of the three Fact Sheets are included with this memorandum.

Why use chemical oxidation?
Chemical oxidation is being used at many sites. It
destroys pollution underground without having to dig
it up or pump it out for transport to a treatment
system. This saves time and money. Often chemical •
oxidation is used to clean up pollution that other
methods cannot reach, such as pollution deep within
groundwater. Chemical oxidation can be used to
clean up the source of pollution. Most other methods
that are used to remove the source are very slow and
more expensive.
Is it safe to use?
Chemical oxidation can be quite safe to use, but there
potential hazards to those handling the oxidant.
Sodium permanganate in concentrated form can be
corrosive, which means it can wear away certain
materials and burn the skin. People who work with it
must wear protective clothing, such as white Tyvek
"moon" suits while mixing and injecting the
permanganate solution. Minnesota Pollution Control
Agency (MPCA) staff makes sure that the system is
properly designed. Workers also test the soil,
groundwater and air after chemical oxidation to make
sure the site is cleaned up.
Cleanup activities for this site are focused on the
shallow groundwater at a depth of approximately 15
