CITY COUNCIL DISCUSSION OF AGENDA ITEMS AND QUESTIONS Councilmember Lawrence -Anderson requested discussion on Item 8a, An Ordinance Amending Chapter 23 of the City Code of Ordinances Adding Sections 23-2400 through 23-2414 Requiring Licenses for Transient Accommodations. In particular she was wondering if there would be a presentation on this item and asked how background checks on every employee came forward. Mayor Willson stated the State does background checks on everyone. City Manager Curt Boganey stated the City does them for every employee as well. He noted that it is a way to put a manager on notice that they are accountable for the people they hire. He stated if something were to happen they could then review the background check and see if the management did their due diligence. Mayor Willson stated after the first round of licensing is done he thinks they should conduct a follow-up and make sure all hotels are adhering to the new ordinance. Mr. Boganey stated for clarification that the City will only be checking to ensure the hotels did the background checks, they will not be reviewing the reports. Mayor Willson stated that is correct. Councilmember Ryan requested discussion on Item 8b, Improvement Project Nos. 2017-01, 02, 03, 04, and 05, Evergreen Park Area Street, Storm Drainage, Utility, and Trail Improvements.

Councilmember Lawrence -Anderson stated there has been a lot of talk regarding pop up libraries and was wondering if this will be an issue regarding property laws or Ordinances. Mayor Willson stated he thinks there isn't any issue with doing this as long as it isn't a nuisance and they keep them within the setback regulations from the walkways on their own property. Mr. Boganey asked the Council to review the dates available for the Council and Leadership Team Retreat and come to a consensus for a date. He stated Craig Rapp is available starting at 3 p.m. most of the dates. It was the consensus of the Council to have the retreat on January 27th and 28th.

EDWARDS Interim Assistant to the City Manager Reggie Edwards provided background on this item. He stated he is asking the Council to review the list of potential focus group participants and give some direction. Mr. Boganey stated everyone who is on the list will not be able to be in a focus group, so it is important to make sure the Council identifies who they absolutely want to participate in the focus group. Mayor Willson stated he recognizes 95% of the list and thinks they would all be good as they are all heavily involved in the community. He stated he does think they should leave the door open to add additional members from outside the box because it will provide a different perspective than what they will get from those listed on the list. Mayor Willson stated he thinks it is important to expand the list then regardless. Mr. Boganey stated the Council has their own focus group which is why they aren't listed on this list. Councilmember Myszkowski asked if there will be room for interpreters in the focus groups so they can get all members input. Mr. Boganey replied yes, there will be room for interpreters. 11/28/16 -2- DRAFT ADJOURN STUDY SESSION TO INFORMAL OPEN FORUM WITH CITY COUNCIL Mayor Willson recessed the Study Session at 6:44 p.m. RECONVENE STUDY SESSION Councilmember Ryan moved and Councilmember Lawrence -Anderson seconded to reconvene the Study Session at 6:48 p.m. Motion passed unanimously.

Mayor Willson stated he agrees and thinks it would be a good idea to continue to grow social media contact. Mr. Boganey stated they have a week to narrow down the list of names and communicate the date to those chosen. Mayor Willson stated he is concerned it is coming so soon and with 300 people responding to the survey that is a lot of people to look at. He noted he thinks more data will be needed. Mr. Boganey stated they will have that data already. Mayor Willson stated he thinks they can move forward with the list they have then.

Background: Section 2.07 of the City Charter requires that the City Council shall fix the salary of all employees of the City. Generally speaking, the City employs three different sets of employees, union, non-union and city manager. Union employees encompass the vast majority of public works and police department employees. Salaries and wages for these employees are established through the collective bargaining process. We are settled with LELS Local 82 (police officers) for 2017. We are in negotiations with police supervisors and public works. The action before you relates to the wages and salaries of the eighty-three (83) non-union full-time employees working for the City. These at -will employees have no contract and rely upon the actions of the City Council through policy to assure reasonable working conditions, salaries and wages that are competitive in the market place. The proposed budget provides for a two percent general wage increase. It also provides for scheduled performance based step increases for employees below the range maximum. I am recommending approval of the pay plan with a 2% general wage increase for 2017. Budget Issues: The proposed budget will support a 2% pay plan adjustment and scheduled performance step increases provided by the resolution. Mission: Ensniing an attractive, clean, safe, inclusive community that enhances the duality of life for all people and preserves the public trust Member introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: RESOLUTION NO. RESOLUTION SETTING SALARIES FOR CALENDAR YEAR 2017 WHEREAS, Section 2.07 of the City Charter for the City of Brooklyn Center requires that the City Council shall fix the salary of all officers and employees of the City; and WHEREAS, the 1984 Pay Equity Act as adopted and amended by the Legislature requires every political subdivision of the State of Minnesota to establish "equitable compensation relationships" between its employees; and WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed the 2017 Full-time Employee Pay Plan; and WHEREAS, an individual employee's movement through their respective pay schedule reflects a progression in corresponding levels or improved job performance; and NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Brooklyn Center that it hereby sets wages, salaries for the calendar year 2017 by adoption of the attached Pay Plan and allows the City Manager to set appropriate increases to the part-time schedule consistent with other employee groups, which the City Manager shall be authorized to pay. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Manager may reclassify, adjust, add and/or delete position(s) to pay grades in the Pay Plan(s) but is limited to authorizing increases due to Pay Equity Act compliance and by the Annual Budget constraints adopted by the City Council; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the 2017 Full-time Pay Plan is approved and adopted because it is in general an equitable pay plan for City Employees; however, parts of the Pay Plan are approved and adopted solely for the purpose of compliance with the mandates of Minnesota Statutes, Section 471.999; that adoption of the Pay Plan shall create no vested rights, terms or conditions of employment or entitlement to any given level of compensation for any employee or group of employees; that the Pay Plan shall be subject to continuing review and reconsideration and may be amended from time to time by the City Council; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Manager be authorized to employ full and part-time and/or temporary employees as may be necessary, and to establish competitive rates of pay for such help consistent with the 2017 budget appropriations and to make interim appointments to fill vacant positions whenever a position is vacant because a regular employee is on leave of absence, vacation leave, sick leave, or is absent for any other reason, and to establish rates of pay for such appointments consistent with the 2017 budget appropriations; and RESOLUTION NO. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that authorized wage adjustments, not to exceed the maximums contained herein, shall become effective January 1, 2017. Date ATTEST: City Clerk Mayor The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by member and upon vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: and the following voted against the same: whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted. pay plan resolution 2017 City of Brooklyn Center 2017 Pay Plan Employees 2017 City of Brooklyn Center Regular Full -Time Positions } x 4 - v, y7?o5�t�on , ..

City Council Agenda Item No. 6e DATE: December 6, 2016 TO: Curt Boganey, City Manager FROM: Steve Lillehaug, Director of Public Works/City Engineer �� d SUBJECT: Resolution Authorizing Execution of Professional Service Agreements with Qualifying Consulting Engineering Firms for 2017, 2018 and 2019 Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council consider approval of the consultant pool to assist staff in areas where special expertise is required or when the workload is such that it cannot be accommodated in a timely fashion by in-house staff. This consultant pool would exist for a three- year period and would be drawn upon on a project basis to enter into professional services agreements for the needed services. Background: Consulting services for architectural, engineering, scientific or other professional training are typically obtained on an individual project basis as needed by obtaining bids from several consultants. In an effort to streamline the process and to assist municipal staff in obtaining consulting services in areas where special expertise is required or when workload is such that it cannot be accommodated in a timely fashion by in-house staff, a pre -approved consulting pool selection process and list are being provided for consideration. Staff solicited Statements of Qualifications (SOQs) from qualifying firms and in reviewing the qualifications, the philosophy is to establish a pool of firms whose combined and overlapping areas of expertise and abilities will allow staff to draw upon their services in the most cost- effective manner possible without becoming overly dependent on any one firm. While some firms are obviously specialists in a specific field of practice, we will attempt to retain firms whose secondary areas of expertise can serve as backup in the event that a primary firm has a conflict of interest, or is unable to undertake a project for whatever reason. The City received SOQs from 25 firms. For the 2017 through 2019 period, the 23 firms listed in the attached resolution are being recommended for approval for this three-year period. These firms were selected after a thorough review of all SOQs. All firms have the technical expertise and capacity to assist in delivering the City's projects. Thirteen of these firms are currently under contract with the City and staff is satisfied with their quality of performance and level of service. Three of the 23 firms are certified Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE). Overall, staff feels that this combination of consulting firms represents sufficient expertise to accommodate the recurring engineering, architectural, planning and design needs of the City in an efficient and cost-effective manner. ]Mission: Ensuring an attractive, clean, safe, inclusive conununi{v that enhances the qualify of life for all people and preserves the public trust Budget Issues: There are no budget issues to consider. Individual professional service agreements would be negotiated on a project by project basis to develop a scope, using the fee schedules that were provided by each firm and approved as part of this process. It is planned that each firm will update its fee schedule annually for consideration and approval by the City.

ATTEST: December 12, 2016 Date City Clerk Mayor The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by member and upon vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: and the following voted against the same: whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted. City Council Agenda Item No. 8a COUNCIL ITEM MEMORANDiTM DATE: December 12, 2016 TO: Curt Boganey, City Manag� FROM: Nathan Reinhardt, Finance Director SiJBTECT: Ordinance Amending Chapter 4 —Public Utility and Service Districts Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council, following consideration of this item under Second Reading and after Public Hearing, adopt the Ordinance Amending Chapter 4 —Public Utility and Service Districts. BacKground: On November 14, 2016 City Council approved the 1�` reading of the Ordinance Amending Chapter 4 —Public Utility and Service Districts. As required by current City ordinance, utility customers are charged a water meter purchase fee at a price established in the public utilities rate schedule. For residential customers, this water meter purchase fee is cun-ently $52.00. When a customer sells the property, the public utilities division repurchases the meter at the price which the customer had purchased the meter. When a new account is opened we charge a $52.00 meter purchase fee on the customer's first utility bill. If the meter is damaged, this fee will not be refunded. If another meter is damaged the customer is required to purchase another meter for an additional $52.00. In the past two years, 76 meters in total were replaced. Damaged meters were most frequently caused by freezing temperatures inside the property owners home, however there were also some meters stripped from vacant homes for their brass value. The CiTy replaces and will continue to replace water meters found to be worn or defective at no cost to the property owner. Although this is considered a fee, its impact is very similaz to charging a deposit. The City only retains the meter purchase fee in the instance that a mater is damaged and replaced or a balance remains unpaid when the account is closed. A deposit, unlike a fee, would require interest to be calculated on the deposit and returned to the customer when the account is closed. Since the meter is being purchased back by the City, the City never receives a true reimbursement for the actual cost of the meter. The current process has a few administrative challenges. When a property closes and the owner has lived in the property for a number of years, it can be difficult to determine whether or not the meter purchase fee was originally paid. In the instance of rental properties (residential and business leases), it can also be difficult to determine if the tenant or the landlord paid the meter purchase fee. We also run into a situation, where if an owner never pays a utility bill, we. don't receive a meter purchase fee for that customer. If customers sell their properties and moves out of the City, it can be very dif£cult to locate the customers and refund the water meter purchase Mfsslon: 6nsnrfirg me rsfnrrcHve, c/ersn, sem, tnc/rts/vr rnnrmuu)ry flea! cnhmmrs fh¢ 4rsn/try jflt for rs!/ people mrd preserves the pubflc frust M 11 ��:.. fee. This results in a large quantity of undeliverable mail being received back by the utility billing department and additional attempts to locate the individuals. With the proposed ordinance change the City would apply a meter charge for new meters or replacement of damaged meters only, as opposed to all utility customers. The fee would be non- refundable. In a separate council action setting the public utility rates for 2017, City staff will be proposing a $99 meter charge to replace the current meter purchase fee of $52. The meter charge would recover just under half the current cost ($214) of a residential meter. Customers who have previously paid the meter purchase fee will still receive this meter purchase fee back when they sell the property. Water meters larger than 3/4" will receive a meter charge of actual cost plus $2.00. Additional wording changes in the ordinance are also proposed to reflect the change in the process of meter readings, which was previously done by the property owner through returning a postal card to remote meter readings, completed by public utilities staff. The item was first read on November 14, 2016 and published in the official newspaper on November 24, 2016. Budget Issues: The ordinance change will eliminate the sale and buy back of water meters on utility accounts and replace it with a charge for new or replacement of damaged water meters. The City will continue to replace meters found worn or defective at no cost to the property owner.

Drinking Water Update Work Session Agenda Item No. 1 DATE: December 12, 2016 TO: Curt Boganey, City Mana FROM: Jesse Anderson, Deputy Director of Building and Community Standards/HRA Specialist SUBJECT: CDBG Funding Process Recommendation: At a recent budget meeting it was requested that a work session item be added to discuss the CDBG funding process and guidelines. It is recommended that the City Council consider providing direction to staff regarding the process for CDBG public service agency application and consideration. Background: CDBG Overview Funding is provided by the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to help with community development activities that benefit low and moderate income persons. Hennepin County funding serves suburban cities with the exception of Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Minnetonka and Plymouth who receive CDBG funds directly from HUD. Brooklyn Center is considered a Direct Allocation City and is a sub -recipient of the funds through Hennepin County. Applications for suburban Hennepin County's Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) are submitted by cities to the County, with the exception of public service agencies seeking funding to serve the Consolidated Pool. Activities eligible for funding include ® Preserving and creating multifamily rental housing ® Preserving and creating single-family homeownership ® Supporting agencies that provide public education and outreach services for job training, homelessness prevention, fair housing, financial literacy, emergency assistance, domestic abuse shelter and counseling, senior centers, senior services, at -risk youth counseling, youth activities and transportation services ® Improved community facilities and infrastructure ® Neighborhood revitalization Brooklyn Center Process 1. December the city will receive information from Hennepin County regarding the anticipated CDBG funding allocation. 2. 1" Council Meeting in January the City Council Calls for a Public Hearing for the 1" Council Meeting in February. 3. January applications for Public Service Agencies are advertised on the city website Mission: Ensuring a: attractive, clean, safe, inclusive community that enhances the quality of life for all people andpreserves the public trust 4. End of January Application for Public Service Agencies are submitted. 5. 1St Council Meeting in February the public hearing is held for the CDBG funding. At that time the City Council provides a recommendation to staff. 6. 2nd Council Meeting in February a resolution is presented for Council Consideration. 7. Last Monday if February full allocation documentation required to be submitted to Hennepin County. Public Participation ® The City holds a public hearing in February as required by Hennepin County Citizen . Participation plan. Hennepin County holds public hearing after the City Council approval and approves the following years action plan. Hennepin County also creates a 5 year consolidated plan that includes the County Priority needs and goals. The 5 year consolidated plan is a process that involves citizen input through meetings, surveys, and public hearings. CDBG Statutory and Administrative Requirements Federal CDBG Statutory Requirements The federal authorizing statute for the CDBG program requires that each funded CDBG activity meet one of three national objectives: 1. Benefiting low income persons 2. Preventing or eliminating slums and/or blight 3. Meeting urgent community needs. The federal law also specifies that each recipient receiving funds must insure at least 70 percent of the CDBG expenditures during the program year be used for activities benefiting low and/or very low income persons. Each city must meet this requirement at the local level. If a city chooses to allocate CDBG funds to eligible public service activities, the amount is limited to a maximum of 15% of CDBG funding. A city is not obligated to provide any funding to public service agencies. Hennepin County Administrative Requirements for Public Service Activities Pursuant to federal program requirements, each city receiving a CDBG allocation from the Urban Hennepin County CDBG program is limited to a 15% cap on public service projects if the city chooses to allocate funds to public service agencies. Other guidance provided by Hennepin County for the disbursement of CDBG funds follows: ® The City has the flexibility to use up to 15 percent of their CDBG allocation to fund eligible, priority public services. Any public services not previously funded must be new Mission: Ensuring an attractive, clean, safe, inclusive eomunrmity that enhances the anality of life for all people andpreserves the public trust services or a substantial increase in a service. The CDBG funds are not intended to replace other funds. Each Public Service activity should have a budget of at least $7,500. If funds are committed by other cities to carry out a single activity of mutual interest, this limit may not apply. CEAP, H.O.M.E. Program (Senior Community Services), Avenues for Homeless Youth, and HOMELine are considered multi -city activities or county -wide activities at this time. ® CDBG activities must address a high priority need according to the County's Consolidated Plan. The current priority needs are: o Preserve and Create Multifamily Rental Opportunities o Preserve and Create Single Family Homeownership Opportunities o Create Housing Opportunities for Homeless Populations o Promote Education, Outreach, and Services o Support Neighborhood Revitalization o Stimulate Economic Development *Cities funding activities that are not high priorities under the consolidated plan must explain why the project is needed in their city. Policy Issues: Does the City Council prefer to continue with the current process or modify the process? Should City Staff continue to solicit for public service agencies applications? What process or policy should we use to select the agencies that receive funding? Strategic Priorities: ® Resident Economic Stability ® Targeted Redevelopment • Enhanced Community Image ® Inclusive Community Engagement ® Strengthened and Empowered Youth Mission: Ensuring an attractive, clean, safe, inclusive conununity that enhances the quality of life for all people mrd preserves the public trust The cities that don't qualify for at least $85,000 in "direct allocation" pass- through fiinding are instead grouped into the Consolidated CDBG Rinds for projects in those areas are awarded through an RFP process managed by the Hennepin County.

Applicant's Signature: Title: Date: Received by: Date: Time: Pace 3 of Work Session Agenda Item No. 2 DATE: December 12, 2016 TO: Curt Boganey, City Mana95?73 FROM: Reggie Edwards, Interim Assistant to the City Manager SUBJECT: Brooklyn Center 2017 City Survey — Topical Focus Areas Recommendation: It is recommended that the City Council review the topical areas of focus fiom the 2012 City Survey and provide direction to staff regarding any new topical areas of focus that may need to be explored in the 2017 City Survey. Background: In November, 2016 the City entered into an agreement with The Morris Leatherman Company to conduct the 2017 City Survey. The City previously conducted city-wide surveys in the years 2008 and 2012. The intent of the City is to survey, analyze the results, and address the feedback provided by city residents on a wide range of community issues (i.e. Quality of Life and Residential Demographics) and city services (i.e., Economic Redevelopment and Parks and Recreation). The survey is scheduled to be completed by early March. The Consultant shall conduct a telephone survey of 400 randomly selected households in the City. A sample of 400 residents would provide results projectable to the entire city adult population within ± 5.0 percent in 95 out of 100 cases. The sample is also of sufficient size to permit the city to be divided into a maximum of four categories for more detailed analysis, such as age, mobility, home ownership, location of residence, presence of children, and other demographic characteristics. The steps in the process moving forward include: • Review of topical areas by departments • Identification of any new topical areas • Review of final topical areas by City Council • Review of old questions and assessment of questions that may no longer be relevant • Development of questions for new topical areas if needed • Finalize survey tool • Test survey tool • Conduct survey • Present findings to City Staff Leadership and Council (early March) In preparing the survey tool for implementation staff is requesting the Council direction regarding the need to add any additional major topical areas to the survey for example: Mission: Ensuring an attractive, clear, safe, inchisive community that enhances the quality of life for all people and preserves the public trust ® Strengthened and empowered youth ® Inclusive community engagement ® Resident economic stability Attached for your review are the topical areas explored during our last survey (2012) as prepared by the Consultant and a copy of the 151 survey questions for that survey. The 2017 City Survey will focus on much of the same (but, relevant) topical areas as covered in the previous surveys (2008 and 2012). By consistently reviewing the same topical areas over time the City may be better able to conduct comparisons with other cities that have utilized this survey tool, identity trends over time, and make appropriate service adjustments. If there is a topical area that is no longer relevant then we will stop exploring or surveying that topical area. Policy Issues: Staff request that the Council: 1. Review of the topical areas of focus from the 2012 City Survey 2. Provide direction to staff regarding new topical areas of focus that may need to be explored in the 2017 City Survey Strategic Priorities: ® Citizen Engagement Mission: Ensuring an attractive, clean, safe, inclusive community that enhances the quality of life for all people and preserves the public trust City of Brooklyn Center 2012 City Survey Topic Areas and Example Questions • Quality of life and Community Identity o How would you rate the quality of life — excellent, good only fair or poor? o How would you rate the strength of community identity and sense of neighborliness — excellent, good, only fair or poor?
