He noted thus far they have been fairly successful in attracting Minnesota organizations. Councilmember Cohen inquired what the bureau is doing locally to encourage local use. Mr. Cook stated the bureau targets areas 100 or more miles from the north metro area. He noted it is up to the area hotels to attract local clientele.

The Director of Planning and Inspection referred the Mayor and Councilmembers to pages one through four of the September 27, 1990, minutes and information sheet. He noted the home is within an RI zone, and this use would be classified as a special home occupation. He then went on to briefly review the site plan for the application. He noted the Planning Commission did express some concern with the inability to park more than two cars on the driveway. He noted the Planning Commission recommended widening of the driveway. He then went on to review the nine conditions recommended for approval of the application. He stated a public hearing has been scheduled for this evening, and notices have been sent. Mayor Nyquist inquired if the entrance is handicapped accessible. The Director of Planning and Inspection stated it is not handicapped accessible. Councilmember Paulson inquired if there would be any signage allowed. The Director of Planning and Inspection stated a two and one -half square foot sign would be allowed, and it would be subject to the provisions of the sign ordinance.

DISCUSSION ITEMS STAFF REPORT REGARDING SPECIAL ASSESSMENTS TO PROPERTIES AT 5500 BRYANT AVENUE NORTH Mayor Nyquist noted he had received an open forum application for this item. The City Manager noted the Council had received a report regarding these items. He noted the property owner's closing statement indicates the existence of both pending and previously certified assessments was known at the time of sale. He stated staff is recommending no amendment be made to the assessment certified to this property. Mayor Nyquist recognized Jagdish Trividi who stated he does not deny knowledge of these assessments. He noted, however, he and Mr. Kruger believe they were charged for services that were not completed. He stated he is looking for fair solutions and noted they were charged for stump removal, and there are still stumps present. He inquired why they have been charged if the work was not done. Mayor Nyquist inquired if the amount of assessments differ from the amount which was shown on the closing statement. Mr. Trividi stated he is not sure because he has not been able to find that information. The City Manager noted at the last meeting Mr. Trividi and Mr. Kruger were concerned that some of the trees were not even on their property. He noted now they are discussing stumps. He stated he would like the Council to request the property owners to put in writing their concerns so the staff knows exactly what to investigate. Councilmember Pedlar stated he was confused by this issue. He inquired if the property owners knew about the assessments at the time of sale. The City Manager explained the closing documents indicate someone was aware of the assessments and an agreement was made. Councilmember Pedlar stated it appears the assessments due were less than the credit given on the closing documents. Councilmember Cohen pointed out it appears the owners were aware of the assessment, but they dispute the fact the work was ever done. A discussion then ensued regarding the differing amounts for pending assessments and certified assessments. The Director of Public Works briefly explained the process which is used. Councilmember Cohen stated staff has pretty well identified that the owners were aware of the assessments, and the only thing left to decide is whether a levy was set up for work which was never performed. He stated if the 10/15/90 -7- property owners would like the Council to review this issue, they should put this request in writing so the staff will investigate the property owners` concerns. There was a motion by Councilmember Cohen and seconded by Councilmember Paulson requesting Mr. Trividi and Mr. Kruger to express in writing the exact issues which they would like staff to review. The motion passed unanimously. CHARTER COMMISSION RECOMMENDATIONS The City Manager noted the Charter Commission unanimously approved wording changes to section 7.06 of the City Charter, regarding passage of the annual budget. He noted this would make the deadlines generic; if the legislature . changes the deadlines again, it should not affect the Charter. There was a motion by Councilmember Paulson and seconded by Councilmember Pedlar to approve for first reading An Ordinance Amending Chapter 7 of the Brooklyn Center City Charter and setting a public hearing date of November 19, 1990, at 7:30 p.m. The motion passed unanimously. ADJOURNMENT There was a motion by Councilmember Pedlar and seconded by Councilmember Cohen to adjourn the meeting. The motion passed unanimously.

We use this saw for many different functions on the fire scene and rescues. It is used for ventilation and cutting metal, brick, and concrete. Because of the importance of this saw, I am requesting we replace this Rescue Saw immediately. 1 would like to request instead of purchasing the Power Greaser approved in the 1990 budget, the money be used to purchase a new Partner Rescue Saw. The cost will not exceed the $1,100 allocation. I will not be requesting the purchase of the Power Greaser in a later budget, as I have been informed we cannot use a Power Greaser on the ladder waterway and fire pumps because it will blow the seals out. I have received two quotes for a new 14" Partner Rescue Saw. They are as follows: COMPANY QUOTE Halprin Supply Co. $1,250.00 Mpls Equipment Co. $1,040.00 1 recommend purchasing the saw from Minneapolis Equipment Company. • qa (RESFIRE) Member introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION NO.

Brooklyn Center has acted as the lead city in securing funding from the State of Minnesota, Department of Public Service, Energy Division; Minnegasco; and NSP. The cities have entered into an agreement with West Hennepin Human Services Planning Board (WHHSPB) to coordinate and implement the program. Because the City of Brooklyn Center acts as the pass- through agency for funds from the State to WHHSPB, we must acknowledge receipt of the revenue and expenditure of the funds in the budget.

KLY� CFNr�� �► POLICE DEPARTMENT MEMORANDUM POLICE TO: Gerald G. Splinter, City Manager FROM: James Lindsay, Chief of Police DATE: November 28, 1990 SUBJECT: Purchase of Equipment With Forfeiture Monies The police department's committee has reviewed a number of items to be purchased with forfeiture drug monies. Three items were selected for recommendation to purchase and an amount of monies to be encumbered for specific use. Currently, there is $17,741.83 in the forfeiture account. Recommendation #1: $6,000.00 The Smith and Wesson handguns have arrived. Sergeant McComb and Captain Kline are determining a training schedule. They have informed me a total of $6,000.00 will be required to provide the training to certify the officers before they will be authorized to carry the guns. The committee recommended the encumbrance of $6,000.00 for this item. Recommendation #2: $3,008 .00 The Hennepin Anoka Drug Task Force Board of Directors has approved an expanded budget for 1991. This included moving the unit into 6200 Shingle Creek Parkway and the purchase of equipment. The additional cost to Brooklyn Center will be $3 The committee recommended this amount be encumbered for 1991. Memo to G.G. Splinter Page 2 November 28, 1990 Recommendation #3: $4,389.00 There has been a growing need to improve the communications capability of the officer on the street. Many residents have purchased police monitors. Officers are reluctant to broadcast information over the police radios. Mobile telephones will provide an improved security for certain situations. The mobile phone will allow the officer capability of talking directly with the Medical Examiner's office, Hennepin County Crime Lab, ambulance service, towing service, police supervisors and police administration, et cetera. With most of these calls privacy is very important. At this time, U.S. West has reduced the cost of the phone and the air time. The phone costs are now $399.00 which includes installation and three -year parts and service warranty. Currently the department has two mobile phones. One in a marked car and one in an investigator's vehicle. A total of eleven phones is requested at this time which will outfit each marked patrol vehicle, the four investigators' vehicles and the City Manager's vehicle. The committee recommends the purchase of eleven mobile telephones. 11 mobile phones @ $399 /each $4,389.00 Recommendation #4: $3,600.00 U. S. West also has a flat air time rate of $25.00 per month for 180 minutes. The committee also recommends funding the air time for thirteen months, December 1990 through December 1991 for the ten new phones being purchased. There is also a $35.00 charge per phone which they call an "activation fee." This is a service charge for the processing needed to set up the account in their computers. The committee recommends these costs be paid is out of forfeiture funds. Memo to G. G. Splinter Page 3 November 28, 1990 Recommendation #4 (Continued): As the thirteen month period covers time in 1990 and 1991, these expenses are separated. 1990 EXPENSES: Air time, 10 X $25 (Dec 1990) $ 250.00 1991 EXPENSES: Air time, 10 X $25 X 12 mo 300.00 Activation fee 10 X $35 350.00 TOTAL for 1991 $3,350.00 Recommendation #5: $230.00 Currently, the squads are all equipped with shotguns. On occasion, a rifle would be an added advantage to have at certain situations; industrial areas, open parking lots, et cetera. The committee recommends the purchase of one Marlin 9 mm carbine and case. This gun accepts the same clip and ammunition as the new Smith and Wesson handguns. The gun will be carried in the sergeants' vehicle. Marlin 9 mm carbine $180.00 Hard carrying case 50.00 TOTAL $230.00 Memo to G. G. Splinter Page 4 November 28, 1990 Recommendation #6: $360.00 The department has purchased each officer his own portable radio with mikes. The mike attaches to the officer's shirt and enables him to communicate with dispatch without pulling the radio out of the holder. We are experiencing a high rate of breakdowns with the mikes. Currently, the officer must go without until the mike can be repaired and returned. We recommend the purchase of five additional mikes which can be loaned to the officers while their mike is out for repair. 5 mikes @ $72 /each $360.00 Memo to G. G.

Included in that agreement was a one - for -one replacement of the six old (power pole mounted) street lights with six new decorative street lights on fiberglass poles (with underground service). It was recognized at that time that additional street lights should be installed because (1) the existing lights were spaced approximately 850 feet apart (more than the City's maximum standard of 700 feet), and (2) construction of the pedestrian /bikeway trail provided additional justification for additional lighting. Our original plans were to install the new lights on the east side of the roadway (where NSP installed their buried lines). However, while developing plans for locating the new lights it became apparent that installation of the lights on the west side of the street would provide more effective lighting and would provide a better appearance. Accordingly, I directed NSP to install 13 lights on the west side of the street. NSP has now completed the installation and has requested payment for their additional work in the total amount of $6,195.00. While this is substantially more than I believed it would be at the time I ordered the work, I have reviewed this in detail with NSP and I now agree this is a correct billing. Accordingly, I recommend City Council approval. It is proposed to pay these costs from the local Municipal State Aid Street Fund, Account 2611. City Council Action Required A resolution approving the agreement with NSP is provided for consideration by the City Council. �e Member introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION NO.

Additional Work to Repair Water Main $16,750 -Upon excavation, the condition of the existing hydrants, fittings and cast iron pipe was generally worse than expected. City Staff determined that it was more cost - effective to order replacements • while the street was under construction than to risk water main failure at a later date. Item 2. Additional Work to Increase Wall Height $36,000 -City Staff determined, at the time of construction, that the final height of the concrete retaining wall should be increased over what was originally shown on the plans so as to assure adequate noise abatement for properties along West River Road. Included in this overrun is the wall material as well as the increased backfill. Item 3. Increased Cl. 5 Aggregate Quantity $11,140 -The quantity of this material required was underestimated when the plans were originally developed. Item 4. Increased Concrete Walk Quantity $ 3,320 -This additional work was performed at the direction of City staff. Item 5. Misc. Overruns and /or Additions $ 7,670 -This represents the minor overruns or underestimations of the remaining 87 pay items which make up the contract. Total Value of Change Order No. 2 $74,880.13 • The total value of work embraced by Change Order No.s 1 & 2 is $ 79,080.13. Staff estimates that $ 18,885 of that total is eligible for reimbursement from MnDOT, based on the existing agreement between the State and the City.

The final tabulation of paving quantities failed to include the section of 65th Avenue North, between Humboldt and Dupont Avenues North. Included in this item of the proposed change order are the correct aggregate base and bituminous quantities necessary to construct 65th Avenue North as it was originally designed. Note This item does not result in an increase in project cost, as ordered, because inclusion of these paving quantities in the original contract would have resulted in an associated increase in the low bid. Item 2. Increased Paving Quantities (Public Utility) $ 25,855 • -This item includes overruns in aggregate base and bituminous quantities which were the result of additional water main and sewer repair within the limits of the street(s). Item 3. Extra Work for Storm Sewer $ 2,296 - Conditions encountered at the time of construction required that electric cables be relocated to accommodate proposed catch basins. Item 4. Extra Work for Public Utilities $ 11,433 -Extra payment for work to relocate hydrants and valves. Asbuilt drawings used for design of this project had incorrectly shown locations of water main fittings, causing extra excavation. Also included are additional costs associated with performing utility work at night, which was recommended to reduce the impact on existing businesses. Total Value of Change Order No. 2 $ 94,154.52 The total value of work added by proposed Change Order No. 2 is $ 94,154.52. The amount of that total that is eligible for regular MSA reimbursement is estimated to be $ 56,866. The remaining $ 37,288 of the proposed increase is to be financed by the Public Utility Fund. • The estimated project costs previously reported to the City Council included a 5% contingency amount ($ 33,460.23). Change Order No. 2 ($ 94,154.52) represents an absolute contract increase of 14.1 %. However, the value of Change Order No. 2 excepting the result of the previously explained math error would have resulted in a contract increase of only 5.9 %. The attached resolution approves the proposed change order and amends the Project Costs and Estimated Revenues to include the effects of this proposed change order.

Attached Memorandum explains basis and purpose of request. s • MEMORANDUM TO: Gerald G. Splinter, City Manager FROM: Mark Parish, City Assessor DATE: November 30, 1990 RE: Data Processing Capital Fund Expenditure Bar Code Scanner -- Homestead Cards Seek Council Approval to $500.00 REQUEST: I am requesting approval of the purchase of a bar code reading device for the purpose of Homestead Card processing. The cost is estimated at $375.00 for the hardware and $100.00 for program customization by LOGIS. In order to process the 1991 cards, we need to have the hardware on hand and tested by the end of 1990, therefore, I am asking for a resolution approving this purchase that will use 1990 dollars. • REASON: We currently receive cards beginning on January 3rd and continuing into early February. At that point, the cards are sent through a LOGIS vendor to be sorted and a tape created. The cards are then returned and we begin to follow -up on those not received. This process presents the problem of not having an updated database to answer the "Have you received my card yet ?" questions and delays our identification of problems. Furthermore, the cost of the sort and tape capture is approximately $400 annually. All cards are now printed with a bar code. If we had a scanner, we could process and file the cards daily, as they are received. We could more effectively monitor the return of cards and begin our follow -up sooner. Multiple handling of records would be greatly reduced. FUNDING: The Data Processing Capital Expenditure fund has a balance remaining for this purchase. The Data Processing Advisory Committee unanimously approved this purchase at its November 6, 1990 meeting. RECOMMENDATION: • Favorable consideration of attached resolution. Member introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION NO. / RESOLUTION AMENDING THE 1990 GENERAL FUND BUDGET AND AUTHORIZING THE PURCHASE OF A BAR CODE SCANNER WHEREAS, Section 7.06 of the City Charter does provide that the City Council will adopt a budget which shall set forth the total for each budgeted fund and department with segregation as to the objects and purposes of expenditures for the purpose of budget control; and WHEREAS, Section 7.07 of the City Charter does provide that no obligation shall be incurred for any purpose not in the approved budget or for any amount in excess of the amount appropriated in the budget; and WHEREAS, the 1990 General Fund Budget for the Data Processing Department has excess funds within the office furniture & equipment allocation; and WHEREAS, the City currently uses a LOGIS vendor to sort the homestead cards at a cost of $400; and WHEREAS, if the City owned a scanner, the Assessor's Office could more effectively monitor and process the returned cards; and and WHEREAS, the cost of a scanner is approximately $400; WHEREAS, minor software changes would need to be made to accommodate the use of a scanner; and WHEREAS, these changes would cost approximately $100. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, as follows: 1. The 1990 General Fund Budget is amended so that an appropriation of $500 for a Bar Code Scanner is approved within the Data Processing Division, Object #4551.

(MNDOT's consulting engineers for this project) has been conducting a preliminary design study for the potential upgrading of T.H. 100 between Glenwood Avenue in Golden Valley and 50th Avenue North in Brooklyn Center. MNDOT has now completed it's " Scoping Document and Draft Scoping Decision Document" for the proposed improvements and will conduct "Public Scoping Meetings" on Wednesday, 12/5/90 and on Thursday, 12/6/90 (see attached letter dated November 8, 1990). The purpose of these documents and of the hearings is to identify issues and analyses which will be contained in the next step of their project development process, i.e. - preparation of a detailed Environmental Impact Statement. At this time MNDOT expects that initial contracts for construction could be awarded as early as 1994. However, because total project costs range between $40 and $75 million, not including right -of -way costs, it is obvious that implementation and completion of all segments may well extend into the mid and late 1990's. On August 13, City staff reviewed MNDOT's preliminary alternates for design of the segment in Brooklyn Center with the City Council. Because each of these alternates had serious implications to existing and planned development in the France Avenue area, the Council on 8/27/90 accepted a proposal from SEH, Inc. to develop alternate design concepts for the development of an interchange at France Avenue. SEH's recommendations were reviewed with the City Council on 10/29/90, and were submitted to MNDOT staff for their review and analysis. MNDOT's reaction has been positive. However, they are still reviewing these alternates to determine if they have any "fatal flaws" (i.e. - design assumptions which do not meet MNDOT's design standards). MNDOT has agreed to get their comments to us before the 12/3/90 Council meeting. • Accordingly, staff will be prepared to present a report to the Council at the 12/3/90 meeting. Also, we will prepare a resolution, for consideration by the Council, which supports MNDOT's proposal to upgrade T.H. 100, but recommends that those alternatives developed by SEH and accepted by MNDOT be given priority consideration in the development of the Environmental Impact Statement. City Council Action Required Review ... Discussion ... Adoption of Resolution (Note: if a resolution is adopted, that resolution will be submitted to MNDOT as the City's official comments regarding this project, by City staff at the 12/5/90 hearing). Note It is recommended that City Council members also attend one of MNDOT's meetings, if possible. • • 4= 0ESOT 1 Minnesota Department of Transportation " \ p Transportation Building, St. Paul.

CITY OF BROOKLYN CENTER Council Meeting Date 12 L/ Agenda Item Number h9 REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION ITEM DESCRIPTION: ADMINISTRATIVE TRAFFIC COMMITTEE RECOMMENDATION REGARDING BROOKLYN BOULEVARD BETWEEN 49TH AVENUE AND T.H. 100 DEPT. APPROVAL: SY KNAPP, IRECTOR OF L LIC WORKS < MANAGER'S REVIEW /RECOMMENDATION: No comments to supplement this report Comments below /attached ********************************************************** * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * ** SUMMARY EXPLANATION: (supplemental sheets attached ) • On October 9, 1989 the City Council adopted a resolution requesting Hennepin County Department of Transportation (HCDOT) to review existing conditions on CSAH 152 (Brooklyn Boulevard) between 49th Avenue North and T.H. 100, and to develop plans for safety and access improvements to this segment of roadway. A copy of HCDOT's 9/12/90 letter of response to the City's request is attached. In summary, HCDOT's letter states that (refer to attached Exhibit A - location map and Exhibit B - Existing Conditions) • installation of a traffic control signal system at the Brooklyn Boulevard /51st Avenue intersection is warranted by existing traffic volumes • existing traffic volumes do not warrant the installation of a traffic control signal system at the intersection of the south ramp terminal with Brooklyn Boulevard. However, o if the existing T.H. 100 OFF ramp for northbound traffic at 50th Avenue North is closed (as currently proposed by MNDOT in conjunction with their plans to upgrade T.H. 100 in Brooklyn Center), the resulting diversion of traffic to the T.H. 100 /Brooklyn Boulevard interchange would increase the volume of traffic using the intersection of the south ramp terminal with Brooklyn Boulevard to a level which would warrant the installation of a traffic control signal system at that intersection. An additional consideration is that the City has previously discussed the possible realignment of Lilac Drive so that, instead of connecting to Brooklyn Boulevard at 51st Avenue, it would connect to Brooklyn Boulevard at the intersection of the south ramp terminal for the T.H. 100 interchange (see Exhibit C attached). When this concept was considered in 1983, it was considered as part of a larger concept which also included the removal of both the OFF and ON ramps for northbound T.H. 100 • traffic at 50th Avenue, and the signalization of the Brooklyn Boulevard /ramp terminal intersection. Consideration of that proposal was terminated in 1983 primarily because of neighborhood opposition to the closing of the ramps at 50th Avenue. After considering this historical perspective, MNDOT's plans for upgrading T.H. 100 (within the next 4 to 6 years) and HCDOT's analysis, the Administrative Traffic Committee, on October 30, 1990, recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution which • requests HCDOT to proceed with installation of a traffic control signal system at the Brooklyn Boulevard /51st Avenue intersection as soon as possible. (Note: It is estimated that the total cost of this installation would be $80,000 to $100,000, and that these costs would be split 50/50 between HCDOT and the City. Regular Municipal State Aid Street funds could pay for one -half of the City share, while the other one -half could be charged to the "local" MSA fund) • requests that MNDOT and HCDOT develop plans for closing the 50th Avenue ramps from T.H. 100 and installing a traffic control signal at the Brooklyn Boulevard /south ramp terminal, in cooperation with the City's plan to develop a new Lilac Drive connection to this intersection. Note The resolution as written requests that these changes also be made as soon as possible. If the Council prefers to wait for these changes to be made • in conjunction with MNDOT's schedule for upgrading T.H. 100 to freeway standards (i.e., 1993 - 1997), the resolution should be amended accordingly. The estimated cost for these traffic signals is also $80,000 to $100,000. However, on this location, MNDOT should pay 25% of the cost, HCDOT should pay 50 %, and the City 25% (from local MSA funds). In addition, the City would have to pay the entire costs for developing the new Lilac Drive connection to this intersection, i.e. - $50,000 to $100,000, depending on the extent and details developed for this connection. City Council Action Required - Review and discussion of this report. - Consider adoption of the attached resolution. Note Additional information for the 12/3/90 Council meeting Attached is a copy of Hennepin County's diagrams showing the results of their 16- hour (6:00 a.m. to 10 :00 p.m.) traffic counts, taken in April, 1990. (Note: Approximately 90 percent of daily traffic occurs within this 16 -hour period. The estimated 24 -hour counts have been shown in parenthesis on each leg of the intersection). Also An alternate resolution which simply requests HCDOT to install a traffic • control signal system at the 51st Avenue intersection is also provided for consideration by the City Council. Member introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION NO. RESOLUTION REQUESTING THE HENNEPIN COUNTY DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION AND THE MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION TO MAKE IMPROVEMENTS TO CSAH 152 (BROOKLYN BOULEVARD) BETWEEN 49TH AVENUE AND T.H. 100 WHEREAS, pursuant to City Council Resolution No. 89 -194 the Hennepin County Department of Transportation ( HCDOT) has reviewed existing conditions and problems relating to CSAH 152 (Brooklyn Boulevard) between 49th Avenue North and T.H. 100 and has reported to the City that: • installation of a traffic control signal system at the intersection of CSAH 152 (Brooklyn Boulevard) with 51st Avenue North is warranted by existing traffic volumes; and that • existing traffic volumes at the intersection of CSAH 152 (Brooklyn Boulevard) with the south ramp terminal at the T.H. 100 interchange do not warrant installation of a traffic control signal system at that intersection; but that o if the existing OFF ramp for northbound traffic at 50th Avenue is closed, as currently proposed by the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MNDOT) in conjunction with their plans for the future upgrading of T.H. 100, then the resulting diversion of traffic to the T.H. 100 /Brooklyn Boulevard interchange would increase the volume of traffic using the intersection of CSAH 152 with the south ramp terminal to a level which would warrant the installation of a traffic control signal system at that intersection. AND WHEREAS, the City Council supports the closing of the ON and OFF ramps for northbound traffic at 50th Avenue, as soon as possible, if a traffic signal system is concurrently installed at the intersection of CSAH 152 (Brooklyn Boulevard) with the south ramp terminal from T.H. 100. AND WHEREAS, the City Council recommends that, if traffic signals are installed at the CSAH 152 /T.H. 100 south ramp terminal intersection, consideration should be given to revising the geometric design of that intersection to include a direct connection from Lilac Drive to that intersection. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, that: 1. HCDOT is hereby requested to proceed with the installation of a traffic control signal system at the CSAH 152 /51st Avenue North intersection as soon as possible, based on a cooperative agreement to be developed for this improvement. RESOLUTION NO. 2. MNDOT is requested to develop plans for closing the ON and OFF ramps for northbound traffic at 50th Avenue North and to proceed with these changes as soon as possible. 3. MNDOT and HCDOT are requested to proceed with installation of a traffic control signal system at the intersection of CSAH 152 with the south ramp terminal for T.H. 100, such installation to be complete before the ramps at 50th Avenue are closed, based on a cooperative agreement to be developed for this improvement; and 4. MNDOT and HCDOT are requested to cooperate with City staff to develop plans for geometric redesign of the CSAH 152 /T.H. 100 south ramp terminal intersection to include a direct connection from Lilac Drive to that intersection.

APPROVAL: Personnel Coordinator Signature,/- title MANAGER'S REVIEW /RECOMMENDATION: No comments to supplement this report _ Comments below /attached SUMMARY EXPLANATION: (supplemental sheets attached At its November 20, 1990, meeting, the park and recreation commission recommended to the city • council that the Arboretum, located north of Kylawn Park in Brooklyn Center, be renamed after the City's former park and recreation director as the "Eugene H. Hagel Arboretum ". Hagel served as director from 1957 until his retirement in 1985. During his years of service, Hagel played an instrumental role in the development of the City's existing park system. If the city council approves of this recommendation, the commission has suggested the City hold a dedication ceremony in the spring of 1991, possibly on Arbor Day. RECOMMENDED CITY COUNCIL ACTION Discuss the park and recreation commission's recommendation to rename the Arboretum as the "Eugene H. Hagel Arboretum" and to dedicate it in the spring of 1991. • pit 51 u l SET NEXT MEETING AGENDA The Recording Secretary said the next meeting is scheduled for December 18, 1990, at 7:30 p.m. There was a motion by Commissioner Peterson to cancel the December meeting. The motion died for lack of a second. Chairperson Sorenson suggested the Twin Lakes' Area Development Proposal and the Twin Lakes' - Summary of Issues list be presented for discussion at the next meeting. OTHER BUSINESS Chairperson Sorenson asked if a sign had been posted at Lion's Park prohibiting the use of the ball fields by older kids, and the Director of Recreation said a sign should be posted by spring. Chairperson Sorenson asked if there was any information on the Palmer Lake Trail improvements as related to the 69th Avenue North improvement project and trail system. The Director of Recreation had no additional information. SHINGLE CREEK AND PALMER LAKE CLEANUP The Director of Recreation said Commissioner Pollock has met with Kay Lasman, and the two of them are working on a plan for a clean- up project of the Shingle Creek /Palmer Lake area. OTHER BUSINESS (Cont'd.) Councilmember Pedlar suggested the deterioration of existing park equipment and new standards for such equipment be discussed by the Commission, and Chairperson Sorenson said this is a good idea for a future meeting. After some discussion, there was a motion by Commissioner Peterson and seconded by Commissioner Shinneck to recommend to the City Council to name the arboretum after former Park and Recreation Director Gene Hagel. The arboretum would be called the Eugene H. Hagel Arboretum. The motion passed. The Director of Recreation suggested a dedication of the arboretum could be done in the spring, and Commissioner Peterson suggested the dedication occur on Arbor Day. The Director of Recreation suggested having a Eugene H. Hagel Day designated by the governor. The Director of Recreation said he has started a preliminary investigation of installing a waterslide in the Community Center. He suggested something is needed to boost attendance at the Center. Chairperson Sorenson inquired about the liabilities of a waterslide, and Councilmember Pedlar suggested there would be a great deal of liability for such a feature. Commissioner Shinneck commented about the litigious society we live in. Councilmember Pedlar suggested since the swimming pool is not getting a great deal of use that as an incentive to employees, free memberships should be provided to them. He said Hennepin County used to offer health club memberships to its employees.

The original request was generated by the school's parent teacher organization (PTO) for a creative play area, running track, and fitness station course. The Anoka - Hennepin school district has agreed to match any funds raised by the PTO. (The total project cost is estimated at $45,000, and the PTO has already raised some of the needed monies.) Attached is the memorandum and a diagram of the proposal presented by the PTO to the park and recreation commission. City staff is recommending that prior to the city council making a specific dollar commitment, the city manager and city staff should review the park area and work with school officials and the PTO to determine what equipment is most suitable for this park. Should the City commit to a joint effort, financing could be made available through the City's Capital Improvement Fund. RECOMMENDED CITY COUNCIL ACTION: Refer the Evergreen Park Elementary School playground additions proposal to the city manager for review and cooperative work with Anoka - Hennepin school district officials and Evergreen Park Elementary School PTO to determine the playground needs in the Evergreen Park area. November 20, 1990 City of Brooklyn Center Park and Recreation Department 6301 Shingle Creek Parkway Brooklyn Center, MN ATTENTION: Board Members RE: Funding for Playground Additions Evergreen Park Elementary School 7020 Dupont Avenue North Brooklyn Center, MN Dear Board Members: The Evergreen Park Elementary School needs your HELP. We are planning on adding a new CREATIVE PLAY AREA, RUNNING TACK AND FITNESS STATION COURSE to our school grounds. The reasons for our requesting help from the City are the following: 1. The school is in Brooklyn Center and is located in a highly residential area. 2. Over 60% of the students at Evergreen Park live in Brooklyn Center. . 3. This equipment will be available for use by Brooklyn Center residents after school hours, during weekends, holidays and summer Vacation. Based on tt =.e above reasons, we feel that requesting help with the funding of our playground additions is justified. We believe the costs for these additions will be as follows: Creative Play Area approximately $35,000 Running Track approximately $7,000 Fitness Station Course approximately $3,000 The Anoka - Hennepin School District will match any funds we raise. This means the school must raise half of the amount needed. A response to our request would be very much appreciated by the end of this year because the work is being planned for the Spring /Summer of 1991< We are hoping that your response will be favorable not only for the health and happiness of the children who attend Evergreen Park Elementary School, but also for the residents of Brooklyn Center.

Also present were City Council Liaison Jerry Pedlar, Director of Recreation Arnie Mavis, and Recording Secretary Geralyn Barone. Commissioners Pollock and Mead were excused from this evening's meeting. APPROVAL OF MINUTES - OCTOBER 16, 1990 There was a motion by Commissioner Russell and seconded by Commissioner Shinneck to approve the minutes of the October 16, 1990, park and recreation commission meeting as submitted. The motion passed. REQUEST FROM EVERGREEN PARK ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PTO David Helfinsteine, Keith Carlson, and Gary Mattson of Evergreen Park Elementary School Parent Teacher Organization (PTO) introduced themselves to the Commission as representatives of the playground committee from the PTO. They reviewed a written request asking the City to assist in financing a new creative play area, running track, and fitness station course on the Evergreen Park Elementary School grounds. Helfinsteine said the school district is willing to match funds raised by the PTO, so the PTO is trying to raise 50 percent of the costs. He noted the committee feels by enhancing the school grounds, the whole area around it will benefit. Chairperson Sorenson asked what the arrangement between the City and Garden City School was in the park development there. The Director of Recreation said City crews assisted in the installation of playground equipment. Commissioner Russell pointed out the Lion's Club donated $3,500 to the Garden City School for playground equipment. Carlson said the cost cited for the creative play area is for equipment only, and it is expected that volunteers will provide the labor to install the equipment. Commissioner Russell asked if any handicapped equipment will be installed, and Carlson said approximately one -third of the creative play equipment will be handicapped accessible. 11 -20 -90 1 D _ a U The Director of Recreation asked about the size of the running track, and Carlson said it will be 440 yards. The Director of Recreation inquired as to the type of material that would be used for the track, and Carlson said it is expected to be an aggregate limestone. He noted half of the cost will be for excavation, and the remaining cost will be for the track itself. He noted it would be necessary to expand onto City property to install the running track where desired. Mattson said the PTO is planning to complete this project by spring so the equipment can be used in the summer of 1991. Carlson noted the track would not be needed until the next school year starting the fall of 1991. The Director of Recreation noted that it may be difficult to fund the project in 1991. Councilmember Pedlar noted the City's proposed budget has already been presented by the City Manager to the City Council. He noted it has been a very difficult year for working on the budget. The Recording Secretary asked what the actual request is of the City. Carlson said the PTO is requesting a maximum of $15,000, although any amount of assistance, including labor, would be accepted. Chairperson Sorenson asked if there is anything in the budget to improve Evergreen Park, and the Director of Recreation said there is nothing planned at this time. Councilmember Pedlar said he can bring this proposal forward to the City Council on behalf of the Commission. Chairperson Sorenson said he is in favor of projects like this, particularly when the groups involved raise part of the money themselves. There was a motion by Commissioner Shinneck and seconded by Commissioner Russell to recommend to the City Council that $15,000 be committed to the Evergreen Park Elementary School playground additions in 1991 plus the provision of any assistance by City personnel in providing labor for the project. The motion passed. Councilmember Pedlar said he will forward this information on to the City Council and the City Manager. AMP 1989 COMMUNITY SURVEY RESULTS The Commission had before it excerpts from the residential survey done for the City of Brooklyn Center in May 1989 by Decision Resources, Ltd. Chairperson Sorenson referred to page 103 and asked what SD #11 refers to. The Recording Secretary said that is School District Number 11, better known as Anoka - Hennepin School District. Chairperson Sorenson referenced page 105 and asked what the definition of a senior citizen is. He said depending on the definition, he has a concern that the age group of 55 to 64 year olds were those most opposed to the construction of a senior citizen drop -in center. Chairperson Sorenson referenced page 109 and pointed out some discrepancies between the acceptable level of a property tax increase, where it appears that both $25 and $30 would be acceptable levels. 11 -20 -90 2 Licenses to be approved by the City Council on December 3, 1990: / AMUSEMENT DEVICE - VENDOR ( jj Mark John Haider 3630 Admiral Lane Chef of Police CHRISTMAS TREE SALES LOT 1 Warners True Value Hardware 2105 57th Ave. N. / %.✓ ,'' "� %y City Clerk CIGARETTE (OVER THE COUNTER) Brooklyn Center Service "76" 6245 Brooklyn Blvd. Country Club Market 5715 Morgan Ave. N.

Splinter, City Manager DATE: November 30, 1990 SUBJECT: Two Additional Discussion Items for December 3, 1990, Council Meeting I would like to add two discussion items to your agenda: (1) support of James Krautkremer for a seat on the Metropolitan Council, and (2) discussion regarding the process for filling the council seat vacancy on January 1, 1991, with the election of Councilmember Paulson as Mayor. Attached is a copy of a resume of Mr. Krautkremer's credentials. He has asked whether the Brooklyn Center City Council would consider endorsing him for appointment to the Metropolitan Council. Mr. Krautkremer has been very active in Metro affairs and Metro Council advisory committees for many years as Mayor of Brooklyn Park. The Council should start discussing the process for filling the January 1, 1991, vacancy. Monday evening I will have copies of the process the Council used for filling the last vacancy. At minimum, the Council should consider approving the portion of the process which sets the application procedure and recruitment publicity. enc. JAMES J.

The Director of Planning and Inspection pointed out the special use permit provision was addressed in a past memo. He stated noise problems are difficult to address because there are school buses and garbage trucks traveling through -the neighborhood which are just as noisy as these other vehicles. The City Manager stated staff is frustrated because they cannot find a way to deal with what the Council is asking. He added he does not believe the Council wishes to put the City in a position of defending itself. Councilmember Pedlar stated he did not understand what the City would be accomplishing by going ahead with this ordinance. He stated he did not believe the City would be addressing the actual problem and inquired who the City is protecting by enforcement of this ordinance. Councilmember Paulson stated he still believes something could be worked out with regard to a special use permit. He noted the City Attorney stated he also felt some type of language could be worked out to address the issue. The City Manager stated he did not mean to imply it was impossible to implement a special use permit for these vehicles but rather staff did not recommend this process. He noted it would undoubtedly create problems down the road and open the Council to a wide variety of legal issues. Councilmember Pedlar stated he still has a number of questions which he needs answers to before he would be comfortable in allowing enforcement of this ordinance. The City Manager stated the ordinance is to become effective on June 1, 1989. He noted if the Council so wished, staff could start enforcement by sending notices to those people we have received complaints on and allow them "x" days in which to comply. He stated if anyone were to call inquiring why we are not starting stronger in enforcement, staff would have to explain that the Council may be reconsidering this issue and strict enforcement of the ordinance will not occur until the issue is reconsidered. He added he strongly encourages the Council to resolve this problem in some way. The City Attorney stated it is important the Council give staff some type of direction in this issue. He noted it is going to be difficult to draft an ordinance unless staff knows exactly what the Council does or does not want. SELECTION OF COUNCILMEMBER Mayor Nyquist stated because of the resignation of Councilmember Lhotka, the Council should appoint a person to fill the Council vacancy. He noted under the Charter the Council is allowed 30 days in which to appoint a person to fill the vacancy. He noted he has outlined a process which he is suggesting the Council use for appointment to the Council vacancy. He noted he would like to see a unanimous vote, although that restriction cannot be imposed because the City Charter states a majority vote. He briefly reviewed the - process for selection and inquired if the Council had any questions or comments. Councilmember Scott stated she felt the process outlined by the Mayor was acceptable, and she would suggest ten ballots being the maximum ballots to be taken. Councilmember Pedlar concurred with Councilmember Scott's comments. Councilmember Paulson inquired if the application from Mark Ellis would be included with the other candidates. Mayor Nyquist stated he hesitated to add 5/22/89 -12- this application because it was received after the deadline, and there may have been other people who wanted to apply but did not because it was past the* deadline. Councilmember Paulson stated Mr. Ellis contacted him on the day of the deadline, and he in turn tried to contact the Mayor and City Manager but was unable to reach either of them. Mayor Nyquist stated he recalled receiving a message that Councilmember Paulson had called for him that evening. There was a motion by Councilmember Paulson and seconded by Councilmember Scott to include Mark Ellis as an applicant for the position of Councilmember. The motion passed unanimously. There was a motion by Councilmember Scott and seconded by Councilmember Pedlar to officially adopt the procedure as set forth in the memorandum dated May 22, 1989, from the Mayor and to place the maximum number of ballots at ten. The motion passed unanimously. Y Mayor Nyquist stated he felt it was important to discuss the criteria the Council felt was necessary for the appointment of a person to the vacancy. He noted he felt experience is very important for filling this vacancy. He noted Phil Cohen is a former Mayor and Councilmember of the City of Brooklyn Center and is well suited to this position. He added he felt politics should be left out of the City Council proceedings. Councilmember Pedlar stated he felt the individual which is appointed to fill this vacancy should not run as an incumbent in the next election. Mayor Nyquist stated the Council cannot legally restrict the individual from running as an �. incumbent. Councilmember Paulson stated he felt the Council should look at the enthusiasm, 4 knowledge, and strengths which each applicant can bring to the Council. Councilmember Scott stated she is pleased that the Council has four candidates to choose from. She noted although there is no way the Council can legally require them not to run as an incumbent in the next election, Phil Cohen has stated he would not run for re- election but would be most honored to fill the vacancy. Councilmember Pedlar stated on the basis that the Council cannot legally restrict this person from running for the next election, he would be in favor of a special election. He noted this would give the choice back to the voters. He added he felt by allowing this person to run as an incumbent in the next election, he would be getting a head start on anyone else interested in the Council seat. Mayor Nyquist stated the first step in the process would be to hold a preliminary, unofficial roll call vote in which each member indicates their first and second choice. He noted the first choice would be allocated two points and the second choice one point. He stated the applicants with the fewest number of votes would be dropped from any further consideration. Mayor Nyquist asked each Councilmember to indicate their first and second choice. 1 _ 5/22/89 -13- Councilmember Pedlar - Phil Cohen (2) Barb Jensen (1) Councilmember Scott - Phil Cohen (2) Barb Jensen (1) Mayor Nyquist - Phil Cohen (2) Barb Jensen (1) Councilmember Paulson - Barb Jensen (2) Phil Cohen (1) Mayor Nyquist stated Phil Cohen received seven points and Barb Jensen received five points. It was noted Mark Ellis and Bob Hock would be dropped from any further consideration. Mayor Nyquist stated the next step in the process would be for each member to indicate their first choice. He noted if there is a unanimous consensus the Council would then proceed with the resolution appointing a person to the Council vacancy. He noted if there is a majority vote a second ballot would be taken to give the dissenting vote the opportunity to change or abstain. Mayor Nyquist asked each member to indicate their first choice. Councilmember Paulson - Phil Cohen Mayor Nyquist - Phil Cohen Councilmember Scott - Phil Cohen Councilmember Pedlar - Phil Cohen Mayor Nyquist stated it appears Phil Cohen is to be appointed as Councilmember on the City Council of the City of Brooklyn Center. RESOLUTION NO 89 -103 Member Celia Scott introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION MAKING AN APPOINTMENT TO FILL THE VACANCY ON THE COUNCIL CREATED BY THE RESIGNATION OF COUNCILMEMBER GENE LHOTKA The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by member Jerry Pedlar, and the motion passed unanimously. ADJOURNMENT There was a motion by Councilmember Scott and seconded by Councilmember Pedlar to adjourn the meeting. The motion passed unanimously. The Brooklyn Center City Council adjourned at 10:10 p.m. City Clerk Ma 5/22/89 -14- MEMORANDUM TO: City Council FROM: Dean A. Nyquist, Mayor DATE: May 22, 1989 SUBJECT: Appointment - Council Vacancy We have the issue of appointment of a person to fill the council vacancy. We need to do it at the May 22nd council meeting (or a special council meeting) in order to accomplish it within the 30 day time limit. I would hope that we can get a unanimous vote. I'm, therefore, suggesting that we adopt a process before taking the official vote on the resolution. I would hope that we can get a unanimous vote; although, I'm not sure that we can require that in view of our charter which requires only a majority. I'm therefore suggesting the following procedure: 1. Council members discuss appointment criteria and the three applicants. 2. Preliminary unofficial roll. call vote in which we indicate our first and :second choice. First choice will be allocated 2 points and the second choice 1 point. The applicant with the fewest number of votes would be dropped from further consideration. The next unofficial ballot will involve a vote on the remaining 2 applicants. 1. If there is a unanimous consensus, proceed to adopting resolution. 2. If there is a majority (3 -1) take a third ballot to give the dissenting vote the opportunity to change or abstain. 3. Proceed to adopting resolution. 4. If there is a 2 -2 tie under item 2, then subsequent ballots will be taken to obtain a majority or unanimous vote. A maximum of ballots will be taken.
