The City Manager introduced a Resolution Accepting Bid and Awarding Contract for Purchase of Reversible Snow Plow. The Director of Public Works explained that the reversible snow plow was not in the 1983 budget but the recent heavy snow storm brought to light the need for heavier equipment. He stated the staff believes it would be advantageous to have a second reversible snow plow for the City and that there are enough funds in the budget to afford the purchase of a second reversible plow due to the low bids received on the tandem truck approved in the 1983 budget. The City Manager explained the funds for the purchase of the reversible snow plow would be from the operating account of the Street Division of the Public Works Department.

The City Manager introduced a Resolution Endorsing Development of Joint Powers Agency to Function as a Watershed Management Organization for the Shingle Creek Watershed. The Director of Public Works explained that state legislation adopted in 1982 requires that some type of Watershed Management Organization be developed for state watersheds. He reviewed the City's options which include organizing a joint powers agreement or having the watershed district organized by Hennepin County and the State of Minnesota. He proceeded to review for Council members his memorandum dated January 7, 1983, regarding establishment of a Watershed Management Organization. He explained that the City of Brooklyn Center lies within two secondary watersheds, one being the Shingle Creek Watershed, and the other the Upper Mississippi River Watershed. He pointed out the two watersheds do not really have much in common and that an ad hoc group consisting primarily of City engineers from the various cities in the watersheds has suggested that the Upper Mississippi River District be exempt from the requirements of the state law. He explained the resolution before the Council this evening is for the purpose of approving the formation of the Shingle Creek Watershed as a joint powers agreement. The City Manager recommended that, since the Director of Public Works has been working on the project, his name could be included in the resolution as the City's representative. The City Council agreed that Mr. Sy Knapp should be the City's representative in the joint powers group. 1 -10 - 8 3 -6- RESOLUTION NO. 83 -9 Member Gene Lhotka introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION ENDORSING DEVELOPMENT OF JOINT POWERS AGENCY TO FUNCTION AS A WATERSHED MANAGEMENT ORGANIZATION FOR THE SHINGLE CREEK WATERSHED The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by member Rich Theis, and upon vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: Dean Nyquist, Gene Lhotka, Celia Scott, Bill Hawes, and Rich Theis; and the following voted against the same: none, whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted. The City Manager sought direction from the Council and inquired whether the staff should work to eliminate the Upper Mississippi River District and if unable to eliminate the district to work to make it part of an existing watershed district. There was a consensus of agreement among Council members to support the City Manager's recommendations with regard to the watershed districts. The City Manager introduced a Resolution Approving Agreement for Professional Services Relating to Development of a Municipal Golf Course. The City Manager stated that, in consideration that the lands located westerly of Lions' Park may possibly be a future site for a municipal golf course, certain permits are required from various state and federal agencies in order to develop the land for that purpose. He stated the resolution before the Council this evening would provide professional services relating to the development of the municipal golf course and would utilize the services of a landscape architect to assist the City staff in preparing the applications for permits from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and other agencies with jurisdiction over the project area, including the Department of Natural Resources and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. Councilmember Theis inquired whether the execution of this agreement would commit the City to a golf course design or whether other types of facilities could be considered for this parcel of land. The City Manager explained that, to the extent the Council wishes to continue the development and fill in the site to raise the land for fairways and tees, the work is oriented towards the development of a golf course, but the land could be used for another type of facility and is not committed to a golf course. RESOLUTION NO. 83 -10 Member Bill Hawes introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION APPROVING AGREEMENT FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES RELATING TO DEVELOPMENT OF A MUNICIPAL GOLF COURSE The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by member Celia Scott, and upon vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: Dean Nyquist, Gene Lhotka, Celia Scott, Bill Hawes, and Rich Theis; and the following voted against the same: none, whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted.

The City Manager introduced a Resolution Approving Geometric Changes at the Intersection of Brooklyn.Boulevard and 56th Avenue. He explained the staff is attempting to get input on the project from the Chamber of Commerce and recommended the Council table consideration of the resolution until the Chamber has provided input into the proposed changes. Mayor Nyquist suggested that the item also be added to the agenda of the Traffic Safety Committee. PUBLIC HEARING ON PROPOSED ASSESSMENT FOR KYLAWN PARK WATER MAIN IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 1982 -06 (WATER MAIN CONSTRUCTION THROUGH KYLAWN PARK TO SERVE TWIN LAKE NORTH APARTMENTS) The City Manager explained that notices of the public hearing had been sent to all affected property owners and that the notice was also published in the official newspaper. Mayor Nyquist opened the meeting for the purpose of a public hearing on proposed assessment for K Y lawn Park Water Main Improvement Project No. 1982 -06.

DISCUSSION ITEMS FRANCE & HIGHWAY 100 STUDY The City Manager stated that he would like to review the proposed study for the France & 100 area with the City Council this evening. He stated that if the City Council has some definite ideas or concerns regarding certain options for the area, he suggested that this be relayed to the consultant. For example, he pointed out that if the Council is opposed to any specific type of development in the area, such as additional apartments, this should be made known to the consultant so that the plans could be developed accordingly. He added that the staff will return to the City Council with a specific proposal for the Council to review. Councilmember Hawes inquired when the current leasor will be moving from the property. The Director of Planning & Inspection stated that the American Canadian Distribution Company is currently operating on the site and that fire code inspections have shown an adequate water supply to the area but other areas still need to be addressed in order to comply with the fire code. He added that City staff will be meeting with the manager of the operation when he returns from vacation and will be discussing the fire inspection report, among other issues. The City Manager pointed out the land in question is currently zoned I -1 and that he would hope the study would provide information to direct and support any change which would be made. Councilmember Theis inquired as to the cost of the study. The City Manager explained. that the study would cost approximately $35,000. Councilmember Theis then asked what benefit the study would have if the developer submitted a plan for an I -use. He added that the study would not be useful in opposing such a development since the land is currently zoned I -l. The City Manager explained that the study could be useful in that special use requirements, and considerations may be brought out in the study, along with information on traffic analysis and pollution of the area. Councilmember Theis inquired how much of the study would be addressing traffic and pollution. The Director of Public Works reviewed the components of one proposal and explained that approximately one -half the time of the entire study would be used to do a basic inventory of the area, including pollution and traffic inventories. He added that one -half of the proposal would be a land use study and one -half would be a traffic study. Councilmember Theis stated that he would like to see the study restricted to a traffic analysis and that he does not see a strong value in the land use aspect of the study. The City Manager stated that the City would hope to know 1 -10 -83 -9- the economics of the area as a result of the study, and that this could help in consideration of future development requests. He added that he would not like to see the economic portion of the study eliminated. Mayor Nyquist stated that he believes the City should have some type of comprehensive plan for the area, in light of the industrial revenue bond philosophy for development. The Director of Planning & Inspection stated the study could give assistance to changing the comprehensive plan. He pointed out that no justification exists currently to down zone the area and that he believes the study could give justification for amending the comprehensive plan. He added the study may indicate the comprehensive j ..:.i: should be amended. C-r.- cilmember Scott commented that a land use study exists for the area now and that ti study serves no purpose. She added that she believes the conditions in the area are essentially the same as were present during the original land use study and that she also believes the consultant did not address the traffic aspect of the study satisfactorily. The City Manager er stated that this situation could be avoided in a future study, if more specific instructions are given to the consultant and are contained in the contract. He added that he believes the request for proposals in these types of studies is much improved from years ago. Councilmember Scott stated that she would want this study to benefit the citizens of Brooklyn Center and not simply a potential developer of the property. The City Manager stated that he would like to bring back a work program and contract for the Council to consider so that the can make a better assessment of the project. Y P J 3 A question was raised by Councilmember Hawes regarding a possible situation where the consultant's plan may recommend a Cl or C2 zoning and the current owner propose an I -1 development. The City Attorney commented that down zoning is based on the economic effect on property and many conclusions could be reached about the use of the property. He explained a judge would decide if down zoning would, in fact, deny the owner of the use of the property. Councilmember Hawes then commented that he does not believe government should pay for a study of pollution in the area but that he believes the owner of the property should pay for this aspect of the study. The Director of Public Works indicated that the pollution portion of the study would be a collection of existing studies currently being done by the owner and other agencies and would not involve original research. The City Manager explained that he would return to the Council with a specific proposal for a study of the area. CONSIDERATION OF COLLECTIVE BARGAINING AGREEMENT WITH L.E.L.S. LOCAL NO. 82 The City Manager reviewed for Council members the contract agreement worked out between the City and the Law Enforcement Labor Services, Local No. 82. He explained the police department contract agreement was resolved at approximately 4:45 p.m. this afternoon. He added that he would request that the Council authorized the Mayor and the City Manager to enter into a contract agreement with Local No. 82 and to authorize the changes contained in the contract agreement. I 1 -10 -83 -10- There was a motion by Councilmember Lhotka and seconded by Councilmember Scott to approve the amendments to the collective bargaining agreement between the City of i Brooklyn Center and Law Enforcement Labor Services, Local No. 82, as negotiated by the City Manager, and to direct the Mayor and City Manager to enter into a collective bargaining agreement between the City of Brooklyn Center and Law Enforce - ment Labor Services, Local No. 82. Voting; in favor: Mayor Nyquist, Councilmembers Lhotka, Scott, Hawes, and Theis. Voting against: none. The motion passed x 1 unanimously. SINGLE FAMILY MORTGAGE REVENUE BOND PROGR F Councilmember Lhotka commented that he was deeply disappointed that none of the City's local banks participated in the City's single family mortgage revenue bond program. He added that he would like a letter to go out to the banks and the Chamber of Commerce expressing disappointment in their lack of participation in the program. Mayor Nyquist recognized Mr. Phil Cohen, who stated to the Council that all the banks in the area had an opportunity to participate in the program and at the last minute the banks dropped out. He added that he believes the letter and inquiry is appropriate. Mayor Nyquist added that he agrees and that the letter should relay the Council's deep disappointment. There was a general consensus among Council members to agree to send a letter to the banks and Chamber of Commerce relaying the Council's disappointment in the banks' lack of participation.

CITY OF 6301 SHINGLE CREEK PARKWAY BYROOK ROOKLYN CENTER, MINNESOTA 55430 YN TELEPHONE 561 -5440 EMERGENCY- POLICE -FIRE T 561 -5720 ENGINEER'S REPORT IMPROVEMENT PROJECT NO. 1983 -02 PROJECT DESCRIPTION: 63rd Avenue North Water Main Improvement Project No. 1983 -02 Installation of 16 inch water main in 63rd Avenue from Beard Avenue to Brooklyn Boulevard (T.H. 152) DISCUSSION: The proposed improvement is offered for review and consideration by the City Council in conjunction with its review of a Minnesota Department of Transportation (MN /DOT) proposal to resurface T.H. 152 (Brooklyn Boulevard) in 1983. The project consists of the installation of 16 inch water main from the 63rd Avenue -Beard Avenue intersection to T.H. 152 (Brooklyn Boulevard), the final segment of amajor east -west water transmission main within the City. Completion of the system will result in increased water transmission capacity to the westerly half of the City and allow for a more efficient use of the elevated storage system. SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS: Main construction in 63rd Avenue will be restricted to an area within the street, north of its centerline. As a result, the north half of the street will be reconstructed (existing curb and gutter will not be removed in this project) to a cross section identical to the existing structure. In order to conceal the evidence of street reconstruction, a thin bituminous overlay of 63rd Avenue between T.H. 152 and Beard Avenue is proposed. Installation of the proposed main within and adjacent to T.H. 152 must be completed under conditions which minimize traffic congestion, yet remain cost effective. In consideration of the above, the staff has reviewed two alternate routes: Option No. l - Main installation in 63rd Avenue between Beard Avenue and T.H. 152 Option No. 2 - Main installation in 63rd Avenue west from Beard Avenue to the City's west fire station, then south along the station's east sideyard driveway and west to T.H. 152, passing between the fire station and the City's Well No. 2. (See attached location map) "'71ce 55i cer&i tq Va se �Y ENGINEER'S REPORT 1983 -02 PAGE 2 While the t f approximately $5 600 less than estimated cos o Option No. 1 is app o y , Option No. 2, several factors make it a less desireable choice: 1. Construction at 63rd Avenue - T.H. 152 intersection necessitates partial closure of the intersection. 2. Construction at 63rd Avenue - T.H. 152 intersection necessitates disruption of the traffic signal system. 3. Water main connection at T.H. 152 necessitates major water main "shut down" along T.H. 152. Option No. 2 also affects the area with the following impacts: 1. Traffic flow within the fire station - liquor store site is restricted during construction. 2. Access to the beauty shop at 3501 63rd Avenue is restricted. 3. Water main connection at T.H. 152 necessitates minor water main "shut down" along T.H. 152. However, staff considers these impacts to be substantially less disruptive than those noted above for Option No. 1. Accordingly, we consider Option No. 2 to be the preferred alternate and our cost estimates are based on this alternate. Special consideration of water main construction within T.H. 152 right of way is necessary because the main must be extended from the east boulevard to an existing main in the southbound lanes of T.H. 152. Current MN /DOT policy prohibits the placement of underground utilities by the open trench method (except at points of connection). Therefore, it will be necessary to auger the main under the roadway. Such construction methods will assure continued unrestricted traffic movement in the northbound lanes and will necessitate restriction of southbound traffic to one lane during main connection only. , It is recommended that construction be completed prior to the bituminous cold- milling /resurfacing project proposed by MN /DOT. Such timing will provide for the uniform finish of the roadway, concealing all evidence of excavation. FUNDING CONSIDERATIONS: Since construction of the transmission water main is necessary to improve system capacity in the City, it is proposed that all costs related to the installation be borne by the Public Utilities Fund. A summary of the estimated costs follows: t. ENGINEERS'S REPORT 1983 -02 PAGE 3 Construction Cost $ 121,100 Contingencies (20% of Construction Cost) 24,220 SUBTOTAL CONSTRUCTION COST $ 145,320 Engineering Cost (9% of Construction Subtotal) 13,080 Administrative Cost (1% of Construction Subtotal) 1,450 TOTAL ESTIMATED COST $ 159,850 The proposed improvement project, as described in this report, is feasible under the conditions outlined and at the costs estimated.

A traffic jam of cars crossing two lanes of traffic in order to be in the left -hand lane and make a U -turn at the 57th Ave. intersection and go south 2. Heavy use of the service road located just East of Brooklyn Boulevard (running past Farrell's) which is not normally for through traffic by cars going to the S5th Ave. intersection lights in order to turn south, AND WHEREAS it would be an inconvenience for people banking, shop- ping and eating in that area to have the south -bound access removed, AND WHEREAS the entire justification for removing the south -bound traffic has not been fully documented, AND WHEREAS the slip ramp at that interesection allowing traffic unto the service road on the western side of Brooklyn Blvd. seems to be part of the perceived safety problem, AND WHEREAS the best solution to a safety problem at that inter= section may be traffic lights, THEREFORE BE IT RECOMMENDED ''That the Economic Development Committee of the Brooklyn Center Chamber of Commerce recommend that the slip ramp at S6th AVe. be closed and if and when further change to the intersection is nec- essary, that a study be made of installing traffic signals."

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL of the City of Brooklyn Center, Minnesota, that it approves of a plan for geometric changes to said intersection which will require all Westbound traffic on 56th Avenue North to turn right into the Northbound lanes of Brooklyn Boulevard, thereby prohibiting said traffic from making a left turn to the Southbound lanes of Brooklyn Boulevard.

TO: Gerald G. Splinter, City Manager FROM: Sy Knapp Director of Public Works �. DATE: December 2, 1982 RE: Minnesota Department of Transportation Plans For Cold Milling and Resurfacing T.H. 152 (Brooklyn Boulevard) from T.H. 100 to 68th Avenue North MN /DOT recently submitted a set of preliminary plans for a "Safety Improvement" of Brooklyn Boulevard from T.N. 100 to 68th Avenue North. This improvement consists of "cold milling" (i.e. - grinding off) approximately 1 3/4 inches from the existing bituminous surface, then resurfacing the roadway with the same thickness of a new mixture. The primary purpose of this project is to improve the skid resistance of the roadway, while also improving its rideability. Accordingly, it is eligible for Federal Safety funding. While MN /DOT is not required to obtain municipal approval of this project, it is submitted to the City Council for information and discussion. Following are my observations and comments regarding this proposed project: MN /DOT proposes to do the work without closing the street to traffic, although obviously it would require restricting traffic in the immediate work areas. - The entire project would take about 4 weeks. - Because the plan provides for resurfacing the through lanes only, I have suggested to MN /DOT that, if the project is accomplished, the plan be amended to include resurfacing of turn lanes, crossovers and intersection approaches so as to "complete the job ". - Our staff is currently reviewing the question of whether any utility improvements should be made by the City prior to the resurfacing project. In particular, we are reviewing the possible installation of a 16 inch water main connection at 63rd Avenue North as recommended by our water system master plan. I have suggested that MN /D0T review the geometries of the 56th Avenue intersection, particularly relating to confusion resulting from the "slip ramp" from southbound traffic to the-west service - It is noted that MN /DOT plans to "turn back" all of Brooklyn Boulevard to Hennepin Counter within the next year or so. Before Hennepin County accepts this turnback, they may require some improvements, Accordingly, I have requested MN /DOT to coordinate this project with Hennepin - County, so that the current project isn't followed by a second construc tion project within the same area within a year or two.

M ;& C No. 83 -2 January 20, 1983 FROM THE OFFICE OF THE CITY MANAGER CITY OF BROOKLYN CENTER Subject: Retirement Incentive Program To the Honorable Mayor and City Council: The following is a report on the feasibility of using some type of retirement incentive program to accomplish staff reduction through attrition rather than layoffs. To attract or encourage retirement the incentive provided, to be effective, must meet a perceived need of those qualifying for retirement. In discussing this question with some of our employees who would be eligible for such a program the item most mentioned which was of concern to them was "the cost and availability of health insurance" for themselves and their spouse. Most appeared to be concerned about the cost and availability of insurance during the time between their retirement and when they or their spouse became eligible for Medicare at age 65. If a program addressed this area it could be attractive. For a program to address the City's needs it would have to accomplish staff reductions on a cost effective basis. In other words the cost of the program should not exceed the savings. Because any program must legally be made available to all City employees, there may be employees retiring under this program from positions for which the City would have to rehire. However, there are other positions whose duties could be merged with or divided among other positions, and as a result the vacancy would not be filled. To assure the economic viability of a program, the City Council would have to have provisions to carefully control the filling of a position vacated under this program. Further, this program would have to be attractive enough to those qualifying to induce them to retire, as legally the program must be voluntary. We have reviewed various retirement incentive programs in the private sector and some in the public sector. The private sector plans generally involve various combinations of moving up the age of retirement, increasing the retirement benefits, contributing to insurance costs after retirement and severance payments. Because the State Legislature controls our retirement programs, only the latter two options are available to us. Brooklyn Center has an existing severance plan which upon leaving the City,after five years of employment an employee is eligible for a lump sum payment amounting to one - third of their unused sick leave. We propose no change in this policy. In the area of contributing to the insurance costs of employees after retirement, we believe there is an opportunity to develop a program which will encourage retirement of qualifying employees and meet the 'needs of the City of Brooklyn Center. Attached is a resolution which I reccnTnend for your approval. It establishes a retirement incentive program in which there is an open enrollment period which closes on July 1, 1983. It provides for a dollar contribution (maximum $15,000) equivalent to the City's current contribution to health insurance until an employee and /or their spouse reaches age 65. Resignations submitted must be effective on or before December 31, 1985. By structuring the program in this manner we would know prior to the Council's consideration of the 1984 and 1985 Budgets the number of positions which will be ; vacated by retirement. This information would be invaluable in planning necessary staff reductions and meet legal requirements. We estimate a maximum of 11 employees would be eligible to retire under this program. Nine of these employees are funded by the General Fund. We estimate that not more than five would sign up for the program. If five employees retire under this program and, on a worst case basis, all five qualified for the full $15,000 payment, the cost to Brooklyn Center would be $75,000. The savings to the 1984 Budget and subsequent Budgets could be as much as $155,000, if none of these positions were filled (an average salary and benefit cost was used to compute this figure). We know that all qualified employees are not eligible for the maximum benefit. We also know if certain key positions become vacant, we would have to do some rehiring but the cost of this program even in a worst case scenario would be covered by savings over a one to two year period. We believe this program could help in achieving the Council's goal of accomplishing necessary staff reductions through attrition on a cost effective basis This would be done through encouraging employees already eligible for retirement to retire and create vacancies needed to reduce our staff cost in light of shrinking revenues.

These organizations were selected by the Minnesota Office on Volunteer Services (MOVS) to be hosts. Our goal is to involve community leaders from business, labor, religious institutions, the volunteer community, elected officials and municipal groups to form a nucleus of people equipped with tools to carry out further action in the community. We need your input to strengthen and improve existing networks and resources within com- munities.. At the same time, we hope to identify umet needs and discover new ways to meet them. This con - ference will be presented by MOVS and will cover topics such as needs assessment, prioritizing needs, volunteer program management and coalition building. The conference will be on February 10th, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., with registration at 8:30 a.m. It will be held at Prudential Headquarters, 3701 Wayzata Boulevard, Minneapolis, Minnesota. The facilities are donated by Prudential so the registration fee will be under $5.00 /continued/ %OU"humrsl ACTION v CQS� Uhurn n C O O R DIN A T E D B Y VOLUNTEERS w C. EdWatt,on and SNwc a.

VOLUNTEER FOR MINNESOTA will help our state and local communities to deal effectively with the dilemma of meeting the increased demands for services with decreasing financial resources. At the same time, it will provide a model for government units across our nation. BACKGROUND INFORMATION In the Fa o 1, as little doubt remained that Minnesota was facing revenue shortages that far exceeded any estimates, a small group of leaders from the Minnesota Office on Volunteer Services - met to discuss constructive alternatives for assisting state, regional, and local levels of government to increase their effeci.ve utilization of volunteers in the planning for and delivery of services and programs. The planning for the project has been accomplished by a fifty member planning committee. Its membership includes repre- sentatives from state and local government, non - profit agencies, civic and religious organizations, labor and business, media, and the academic and volunteer communities. Leadership and staff support have been provided by the Minnesota Office on Volunteer Services of the Department of Administration. As planning progressed, the focus of the project began to expand. It became evident that the effective use of volunteers was only one answer to the escalating problems in areas of service and programs. Some very basic investigation was needed by communities as to whether existing services were meeting current needs and in the most efficient way possible; whether resources both financial and human were beinq most effectively used; and whether in some instances the sharing of services between the public and private sectors would .produce greater results. Today, the VOLUNTEER FOR MINNESOTA Project offers an innovative no ative plan for increasing citizen and i pr v .ate sector involvements and strengthening existing service networks. It stresses the building of community coalitions, assessing needs and placing them into priorities, exploring existing and new resources to meet those designated needs including identifying appropriate roles for volunteers, and recruiting, training, and placing volunteers. VOLUNTEER FOR MINNESOTA will help communities qet the ' maximum advantaae from citizen involvements without sacrificing local control or supplanting paid staff. Implementation of the project began with a Kick -Off Conference on September 30, 1982. Over 300 a_articivants from more than 95 communities attended to learn how they could become involved in VOLUNTEER FOR MINNESOTA. As a result oil the conference, a number of communities applied to receive pilot VOLUNTEER FOR MINNESOTA training. Of those, seven communities were selected to receive the pilot training. They are: Olivia, Breckenridge, Little Falls, Worthington, Whittier Alliance in Minneapolis Brooklyn Center, and Wright County. These communities will receive pilot training between December 11, 1982, and January 15, 1983. In addition, nine suburbs from northwestern Hennepin County will receive the pilot trainin in 'February. Those communities participating in the pilot training will be provided with a one day, intensive training session for community leaders on the topics of coalition building, needs assessment and setting priorities, explorinq optional resources, and an overview of volunteer program management. Additionally, a follow -up in -depth training session on volunteer program development and management will be available. Following the pilot trainings, the manual and training plan will be evaluated and revised, if needed. Then, in the Spring of 1963, the VOLUNTEER FOR MINNESOTA project will expand to at least 50 Minnesota communities. The same services will be available to those communities, except that the training will be provided on a regional basis rather than within individual communities.

HANAUER, of White Bear Lake, who has a telephone number of 429 -5305. Mr. HANAUER advised MONTEEN that he does in fact carry the insurance on the Town Taxi Corporation, and that Town Taxi's insurance coverage exceeds the minimum limitations as prescribed by Minnesota law. HANAUER advised MONTEEN that he would be forwarding a certificate of insurability and insurance coverage, to the City of Brooklyn Center, concerning Town Taxi, with tommorrow's mail. Investigator MONTEEN also contacted the St. Louis Park Police Department and spoke to Officer Donald VOSS. VOSS advised that in licensing taxi cabs the Citv of St. Louis Park does an inspection of each vehicle, includi.n a 23 point equipment check -list, which not only deals with the safety factors of the vehicle and the metering of the vehicle, but, includes the appearance of the vehicle and its interior compartments. As well, the City of St. Louis Park runs a driver's license check on each cab operator and a check with the Hennepin County Warrant Office on the name of each operator. According to VOSS cabs which are licensed in St. Louis Park are certified on a semi- annual basis, and cabs which are certified outside Page 2 the City of St. Louis Park are done on an annual basis. VOSS advised me that the cabs in question had been certified in November and December of 1982. In each case the above entitled vehicles, at the time of inspection, were certified to be in good operating condition with reasonable exterior appearance and a clean nice appearing interior, with the exceptions noted on cab numbers 126,132, 136, 139, 141 and 142. These items have been repaired to the specifications of St. Louis Park's City Ordinance. Officer VOSS had prepared an envelope containing the Inspection Certificates of the cab in question, for the Brooklyn Center Police Department, and had given them to Steven A. HARVEY, President of Town Taxi Corporation. HARVEY was to deliver these inspection certificates to the Brooklyn Center Police Department, and we may expect them shortly. The Town Taxi Corporation had made application for a license to operate the above - listed vehicles within the City of Brooklyn Center, and is in the process of submitting copies of the taxi cab inspection forms prepared by the St. Louis Park Police Department as well as a certificate of insurance on their vehicles. It would appear that the vehicles are in good operating condition and of acceptable appearance with proper calibration. Investigator MONTEEN can find no reason to deny the license to the Town Taxi Corporation based on the investigation as conducted. A.
