This reduced balance is consistent with the development agreement and is believed to sufficient warranty and performance security. Nafstad noted that the approved site plans include a 4-foot fence along the south and east sides of the restaurant between the parking lot curb and the retaining wall. The fence was included on the site plans to satisfy an engineering requirement that arose due to concern with the close proximity of the parking lot to the wall. With the wall, landscaping and�parking lot in place, the Developer has questioned whether or not the fence is necessary andti "ars & fence will create maintenance issues, particularly related to snow removal and lawne. Nafstad informed the Council, that upon discussing the issues with the 1Deeloper and reviewing the matter in the field, staff also agrees that the fence create;mantenanceff culties, and may take away from the freeway visibility and landscaping ;'staff also agrees that t added pedestrian safety provided by the fence is questionable. Staff believes an acceptable alternative would be an agreement amendment that allows the Developer to postpone construction of the fence indefinitely,„r until the City deems the fence a necessary safety improvement.

BACKGROUND: Upon completion of our 2007 annual audit there was a Finacial performace and accountability recommendation.

FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: There is no financial impact, at this time to adopting these policies. These policies assist to insure there is a source of funds for all uses of funds. That is to say that all capital project will have a source of funding when they are approved. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The Mayor and Council have the authority to approve policies and programs to be in legal compliance of the federal and state laws.

Meeting Date December 15, 2008 City of Albertville Fund Balance/Cash Flow Policy General Fund Balance Policy The City of Albertville recognizes the importance of maintaining an appropriate level of fund balance. Sound fiscal managements of Albertville's general fund operation budget are made more secure by establishing city goals regarding the size and use of the annual general fund balances. This policy provides two goals and measures for determining the appropriate fund balance. The security factor must be met before the dependence factor can be applied. The City of Albertville will strive to meet these goals. 1. Security. Ensure that, at NO time during budget preparation, the amounts remaining in current year end fund balance (defined as the prior year's known fund balance amount less the amount designated for application to the current year budget) be allowed to be less than 35% of the next years planned budget for the General Fund as a minimum. As economic conditions warrant, an amount larger than this shall be maintained. This will be applied to cash flow, revenue reserves and insurance and liability needs, or be available in the time of emergencies. If the current fund balance meets or exceeds the 35% the intent is to maintain that level. If the fund balance level falls below the 35% due to unexpected expenses, a replenishment plan will be developed. 2. Dependence. In building the next year's budget, the percentage of total annual budget financing that can come from fund balances will not exceed 5% of the planned budget. Cash Flow Policy Cash Flow Requirements The amount designated for cash flow reserves shall be 50% of the ensuing year's tax levy. Emergency and Contingency Requirements The amount designated for contingencies and emergencies shall be 2% of the ensuing year's general fund budgeted operating expenditures and shall not be appropriated for budget purposes in the ensuing year M:\Public Data\Policies\fund balance -cash flow policy.doc Agenda Item No. 8.F.3.

December 8, 2008 SUBJECT: 0 FINANCE DEPARTMENT — IDENTITY THEFT PREVENTION PROGRAM RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider the following motion: Motion to approve and implement the Identity Theft Prevention Program. BACKGROUND: In September of 2008 staff was notified of the new Federal "Red Flags Rule". This rule requires local governments to generate and follow a written plan to catch and stop those who attempt to commit fraud by using another person's identity. KEY ISSUES: • Identify red flags for new and existing accounts • Respond appropriately to detected red flags to prevent identity theft POLICY/PRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: It is the City's policy to review and approve policies and programs to be in accordance with regulation of local government. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: There is no financial impact to implementing this program. Staff currently watches for red flags.

F.4. Meeting Date December 15, 2008 City of Albertville Identity Theft Prevention Program L Program Adoption The City of Albertville has developed an Identity Theft Prevention Program pursuant to the Federal Trade Commission's Red Flags Rule ("Rule', which implements Section 114 of the Fair and Accurate Credit Transaction Act of 2003. 16C.F.R. 681.2. This program was developed with oversight and approval of the City Council. After consideration of the size and complexity of the City's operations and account systems, and the nature and scope of the City's activities, the City Council determined that this program is appropriate for the City of Stewartville, and therefore approved this Program on October 28, 2008. II. Program Purpose and Definitions A. Fulfilling requirements of the Red Flags Rule Under the Red Flag Rule, every financial institution and creditor is required to establish an "Identity Theft Prevention Program" tailored to its size, complexity and the nature of its operation. Each program must contain reasonable policies and procedures to: 1. Identify relevant Red Flags for new and existing covered accounts and incorporate those Red Flags into the Program. 2. Detect Red Flags that have been incorporated into the Program. 3. Respond appropriately to any Red Flags that are detected to prevent and mitigate Identity Theft and; 4. Ensure the Program is updated periodically, to reflect changes in risks to customers or to the safety and soundness of the creditor from Identity Theft. B. Red Flags Rule definitions used in the Program The Red Flags Rule defines "Identity Theft" as "fraud committed using the identifying information of another person" and a "Red Flag" as a pattern, practice, or specific activity that indicates the possible existence of Identity Theft. According to the Rule, a municipal utility is a creditor subject to the Rule requirements. The Rule defines creditors "to include finance companies, automobile dealers, mortgage brokers, utility companies, and telecommunication companies. Where non-profit and government entities defer payment for goods or services, they too, are to be considered creditors". All City accounts that are individual water/sewer service accounts held by customers of the City whether residential, commercial or industrial are covered by the Rule. Under the Rule, a "covered account" is: M:\Public Data\Policies\Red Flag Rule.doc Agenda Item No. 8. F.4. Meeting Date December 15, 2008 51 City of Albertville Identity Theft Prevention Program Page 2 of 4 1. Any account the City offers or maintains primarily for personal, family or household purposes, that involves multiple payments or transactions; and 2. Any other account the City offers or maintains for which there is a reasonably foreseeable risk to customers or to the safety and soundness of the City from Identity Theft. "I:dentifying Information" is defined under the Rule as "any name or number that may be used, along or in conjunction with any other information, to identify a specific person, "including: name, address, telephone number, social security number, date of birth, government issued driver's license or identification number, alien registration number, government passport number, employer or taxpayer identification number, computer's Internet Protocol address, or routing code. III. Identification of Red Flags In order to identify relevant Red Flags, the City considers the types of accounts that it offers and maintains, the methods it provides to open its accounts, the methods it provides to access its accounts, and its previous experiences with Identity Theft. The City identifies the following red flags, in each of the listed categories: A. Suspicious Documents/Account Activity Red Flags 1. Documents with information that is not consistent with existing customer information (such as if a person's signature on a check appears forged); 2. A call for change of service that seems to be unusual 3. Payments stop on an otherwise consistently up-to-date account 4. Account used in a way that is not consistent with prior use (example: very high activity). 5. Notice to the City that a customer is not receiving mail sent by the City. 6. Breach in the City's computer system security 7. Unauthorized access to or use of customer account information. B. Alerts from Others 1. Notice to the City from a customer, identity theft victim, law enforcement or other person that it has opened or is maintaining a fraudulent account for a person engaged in Identity Theft. M:\Public Data\Policies\Red Flag Rule.doc Agenda Item No. 8.F.4. Meeting Date December 15, 2008 52 City of Albertville Identity Theft Prevention Program Page 3 of 4 IV. Detecting Red Flag A. New Accounts In order to detect any of the Red Flags identified above associated with the opening of a new account, City personnel will take the following steps to obtain and verify the identity of the person opening the account: 1. Require certain identifying information such as name and residential or business address. B. Existing Accounts In order to detect any of the Red Flags identified above for an existing account, City personnel will take the following steps to monitor transactions with an account: 1. Verify the validity of requests to change billing address; and 2. Verify changes in banking information given for billing and payment purposes — must fill out bank information and sign auto pay form. V. Preventing and Mitigating Identity Theft In the event City personnel detect any identified Red Flags, such personnel shall take one or more of the following steps, depending on the degree of risk posed by the Red Flag: Prevent and Mitigate 1. Stop the service (water turned off) 2. Notify Law Enforcement 3. Notify the Customer 4. Continue to monitor an account for evidence of Identity Theft 5. Contact the customer 6. Close the existing account Protect Customer Identify Information In order to further prevent the likelihood of identity theft occurring with respect to City accounts, the City will take the following steps with respect to its internal operating procedures to protect customer identifying information: M:\Public Data\Policies\Red Flag Rule.doc Agenda Item No. 8.F.4. Meeting Date December 15, 2008 53 City of Albertville Identity Theft Prevention Program Page 4 of 4 1. Ensure complete and secure destruction of paper documents and computer files containing customer information 2. Ensure that office computers are password protected 3. Keep offices clear of papers containing customer information 4. Ensure computer virus protection is up to date 5. Require and keep only the kinds of customer information that are necessary for City purposes. VII. Program Administration A. Oversight Responsibility for developing, implementing and updating this Program lies with the City Clerk and/or Deputy Clerk. City Clerk will be responsible for the Program administration, for ensuring appropriate training of staff on the program, determining which steps of prevention and mitigation should be taken in particular circumstances and considering periodic changes to the Program. B. Staff Training and Reports Utility staff responsible for implementing the Program shall be trained either by or under the direction of the Finance Director in the detection of Red Flags, and the responsive steps to be taken when a Red Flag is detected, staff will provide reports to the City Council on incidents of Identity Theft. D. Specific Program Elements and Confidentiality For the effectiveness of Identity Theft prevention Programs, the Red Flag Rule envisions a degree of confidentiality regarding the Utility's specific practices relating to Identity Theft detection, prevention and mitigation. Therefore, under this Program, knowledge of such specific practices are to be limited to the Albertville City Council and those employees who need to know them for purposes of preventing Identity Theft. Because this Program is to be adopted by a public body and thus publicly available, it would be counterproductive to list these specific practices here. Therefore, only the Program's general red flag detection, implementation and prevention practices are listed in this document.

Mayor and Council Communication December 8, 2008 SUBJECT: 0 FINANCE DEPARTMENT — ANNUAL AUDIT SERVICES AGREEMENT RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and City Council consider the following motion: Motion: to approve the Kern, DeWenter, & Viere, Ltd. (KDV) to complete the 2008 annual audit services agreement in the amount of $25,900. BACKGROUND: KDV has provided the annual audit services for the City of Albertville dating back to pre-2001. KDV provides experienced auditors in the local government realm. The Annual Audit for 2007 was completed by KDV for $24,775. The 2007 had a federal single audit component at a cost of $3,000 due to federal monies for I-94; therefore the total for the 2007 audit was $27,775. Since the City of Albertville did not spend any federal funds for I-94 this year we do not need a federal single audit for 2008. The proposal for auditing the City of Albertville 2008 financial statements by KDV is $25,900. KEY ISSUES: • Last year, staff received quotes for services from two firms and KDV's rate was competitive. • With a number of changes encountered in recent years, staff s recommendation is to continue the relationship with KDV at this time. POLICY/PRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: It is the City's policy to evaluate and consider contracts on a case by case basis, seeking the best value for the City. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: The city budgeted $31,000 for audit/accounting fees and spent $25,386.11 for 2008; there is a 3% increase for the 2009 budget for audit/accounting fees. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The Mayor and Council have the authority to approve agreements that the City enters into pursuant to Minnesota State Law.

Meeting Date December 15, 2008 lbertvillc Mayor and Council Communication December 8, 2008 SUBJECT: FINANCE DEPARTMENT — PERSONNEL POLICY RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider the following motion: Motion to approve the updates to the Personal Policy. BACKGROUND: The City of Albertville approved and updated the personnel policy on December 18, 2006. The attached document outlines a number of changes that updates the current policy to reflect changes approved by the City Council such as the 10 hour work day, increase in Health Care Saving Plan and adds a computer use policy. One fairly significant change is eliminating the pro-rata accrual of vacation and sick leave for permanent part time workers. Currently, this does not affect any employees. Other changes are considered fairly minor in nature. KEY ISSUES: • Update the reference sections • Update to reflect the 1% match for Post Retirement Health Care Savings Plan • Update hours of work, and holidays • Adds a Computer/Technology section • Eliminates pro-rata accrual of vacation and sick leave for permanent part time employees. POLICY/PRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: It is the City's policy to review and approve policies as they deem necessary. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: There is no financial impact, at this time, to implementing this program. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The Mayor and Council have the authority to. approve policies and programs to be in legal compliance of the federal and state laws.

BACKGROUND: Historically, the Albertville City Council has set the next year's City Observed Holidays in December of the current year.

December 10, 2008 SUBJECT: 0 PLANNING - ORDINANCE AMENDING VARIOUS FEES RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and City Council consider passing the following motion: Motion to approve Ordinance No. 2008-01.0 an Ordinance Amending Section 100.10 (Fees, Charges, and Expenses) of the Zoning Ordinance (Appendix A) of the 2005 Albertville Municipal City Code to Establish Fees, Charges, and Expenses by way of a Zoning Ordinance. BACKGROUND: In 2008, City Staff expressed that many of the development and zoning applications had inadequate cash escrows to cover consulting fees. Usually the escrow amount was just enough to cover the planning consultant, but not the attorney or engineer. Applicants were then faced with additional billings beyond the escrow, which were not planned for in their project budgets. Having a more accurate escrow enables applicants to better plan for the actual cost the City will charge. Multiple Applications: Applicants often times have multiple applications such as variance, conditional use permit or zoning change. Each of these requires different processes and staff time. Staff clarified that it is important to charge for each application. Adjustable Escrows: An applicant is required to pay a non-refundable base fee and escrow deposit to be charged against the time and expenses necessary to process the request. As of now, Albertville's escrow deposits are set at a flat rate. For example, any conditional use permit application requires a base fee of $300, along with an escrow deposit of $1,500. It is evident, however, that some projects are larger and much more complex than others. Therefore, some municipalities choose to establish their escrow deposits based on the size, or complexity, of the project. For example, the City of Monticello has established the following fees/escrows for commercial conditional use permits based on the size of the site: $200 Base Fee plus Escrow Deposit o£ $2,000 for a site of less than 4 acres $6,000 for a site of 4-10 acres $10,000 for a site of more than 10 acres Staff is recommending the following escrow deposits be established for conditional use permit applications in the City of Albertville: $300 Base Fee* plus Escrow Deposit of: M:\Public Data\Requests for Council Actions (RCA)\2008\12 15 2008 Planning Modifying fee schedule RCA.doc Agenda Item No. 8.1.1 .

Administrative Permits. At the November 5, 2008 City Council meeting, a motion was passed to direct staff to review and prepare an Ordinance that would amend the 2005 Albertville Municipal City Code to include language regarding an Administrative Permit for accessory buildings that would have the same restrictions as a Conditional Use Permit. (Accessory buildings will be discussed in more detail later in the agenda). Currently, the Zoning Ordinance states that certain site plans may be classified as minor projects and may be administratively approved by the zoning administrator in lieu of the Planning Commission review and City Council approval, if they meet the specified criteria in the Ordinance (1500.4). In addition, proposed minor structural additions or proposed minor site expansions or modifications involving ten percent or less of the total existing floor or site area, which meet specified criteria, may also be approved by the zoning administrator in lieu of the Planning Commission review and City Council approval (I500.6.A). The proposal is to establish an Administrative Permit process for accessory buildings that would require the same conditions and restrictions as a conditional use permit, but would be reviewed by staff in lieu of the Planning Commission and City Council, and a fee of $500 would be required. KEY ISSUES: • Multiple applications require more work than a single application and the fees need to be set such that they reflect the cost to process the application. • Adjustable escrows scale the size of the escrow to the size of the project. Larger developments normally require larger escrows. • Administrative permits provide a mechanism for approval at a lower cost and should be more expedient while achieving the City's expectations and requirements. • Administrative permits, while being expedient, do lack the opportunity for the Planning Commission and City Council to get involved. POLICY/PRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: In accordance with State Law, public notice was published and a public hearing held by the Planning Commission and they are recommending the City Council amend this section of the code. M:\Public Data\Requests for Council Actions (RCA)\2008\12 15 2008 Planning Modifying fee schedule RCA.doc Agenda Item No. 8.I.1.. Meeting Date December 15, 2008 Mayor and Council Communication — December 10, 2008 Planning — Zoning Ordinance Amendment Page 3 of 3 FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: There are not significant financial issues related to this amendment. In the past the escrows were underfunded, but ultimately the applicants paid the application fees and consultants time. Having a scalable escrow based on the size of the development will hopefully do a better job of matching the escrow and resultant cost. The Administrative Permit will streamline both the process and the cost for the City and applicant. LEGAL ISSUES: In accordance with Council procedures, the Mayor and Council have the authority to amend Ordinances which requires a majority vote of the City Council and becomes effective upon publication.

BACKGROUND: David Pattberg, of Woodside Communities of MN, Inc. and Developer of Karston Cove 3rd Addition has requested an extension to the completion dates specified in the development contract for Karston Cove 3rd Addition. The Development Agreement requires all municipal and on -and off -site improvements be complete by October 31", 2008, unless otherwise approved by the City. To date, the majority of the municipal and on -and off -site improvements within the 64th Street right-of-way and on the north half of the plat have been completed. Work remaining on 64th Street primarily consists of sidewalk construction and boulevard restoration and the work remaining on the north half of the plat primarily consists of installing the final lift of pavement on the private streets. No improvements have occurred on the south side 641h Street. To ensure completion of the improvements and requirements of the development contract, the City holds a letter of credit in the amount of $460,000. This surety will be retained until all obligations of the contract are met. Given the state of the area economy and how it has adversely impacted the residential housing market, development of the south half of Karston Cove 3rd is not anticipated in the near term. Upon review of the outstanding contract requirements and acknowledging today's housing market, it is recommend that the Karston Cove 3rd Addition Development Agreement be amended to extend the completion of the municipal and on -and off -site improvements until October 31, 2010, with the following conditions: The Developer renews the Letter of Credit to the satisfaction of the City Attorney. The Developer completes the paving and any necessary repair to the private streets north of 64t Street by July 31, 2009 and to the satisfaction of the City Engineer. Developer signs the amendment.

These fees will take effect January 1 of the following year. In 2007, the re -roofing fees were based on the value of the job. In 2008, the Council set the re- roofing fee at a flat $100. After evaluating the amount of work and time that goes into processing a job, staff recommended a $25 increase in the fee. KEY ISSUES: • Staff identified that two inspections and processing the permit costs more than $100. 9 Insurance typically pays for the permit when roof damage is a result of hail or storm damage. POLICY/PRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: Staff annually monitors fees to determine if the fee reflects the cost to perform the work or service. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: This change will bring in a modest amount of new revenue, which is minor in comparison to the operational cost of the department but more reflective of the inspection and processing costs. LEGAL ISSUES: In accordance with Council procedures, the Mayor and Council possess the authority to amend the ordinance.

Title 9; Chapter 5; Section 5; Subsection C of the 2005 Albertville Municipal City Code is hereby amended to read as follows: 9-5-5: USER FEES; BILLS FOR SERVICE: C. Payment of Bills; Delinquencies: Payments shall be made in accordance with the billing not later than the fifteenth (151h) day of the following month. A ten percent (10%) late charge will be charged if bills are not paid by the due date, subject to a minimum charge in an amount duly established by the council by resolution from time to time.

If such fee is not paid within sixty (60) days after due, the said unpaid fee, plus late charges, may be certified to the county auditor with the taxes against such property and shall be collected with other taxes on such property. The fee shall be deemed a charge against the owner, lessee and occupant of the property served.

December 8, 2008 SUBJECT: 0 LEGAL - ORDINANCE AMENDMENT RELATING TO PUBLIC NUISANCES RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and City Council consider passing the following motion: Motion to approve Ordinance No. 2008-01.3 entitled an Ordinance Requiring Doors and Windows be closed if an Establishment Selling Alcoholic Beverages is Playing Live Music. BACKGROUND: In 2008 the City experienced a number of complaints about doors and windows open in alcohol establishments emitting loud noise and music. The intent of this ordinance is to try and control the amount of noise coming out of establishments that might bother the neighbors. KEY ISSUES: • Patrons need to go in and out of the doors, so having this ordinance will not stop all of the noise problems. • Establishments open the window during hot weather and may require them to have improved air conditioning system. • Since 2007, when the indoor smoking ban went into effect, some establishments have propped the doors open so they can listen to the music and have a smoke outside. POLICY/PRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: It is the practice for the Council to discuss problems like this and for staff to present Ordinance amendments to rectify their concerns. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: There are no financial considerations as it relates to approval of the Ordinance. LEGAL ISSUES: In accordance with Council procedures, the Mayor and Council have the authority to amend Ordinances which requires a majority vote of the City Council and becomes effective upon publication.

BACKGROUND: At the December 1, 2008 City Council meeting, the Council approved a change in the developer's agreement to allow the letter of credit to be reduced as to the individual lot landscaping provided the developer's agreement is amended to require the individual lot owners to post an escrow securing the installation of required landscaping. The Council also agreed to allow the fence to be installed at such time as the Council requires. This amendment implements what the Council has already approved. KEY ISSUES: The developer's agreement is amended to: • Reduce the landscaping portion of the letter of credit to $58,000, covering the restaurant landscaping and the perimeter landscaping only. • Require the individual lot owners to post an escrow for the landscaping on their lot prior to receiving a building permit. • Allows the developer to delay installing the fence until the Council requires or until the developer desires to install it. POLICY/PRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: This agreement implements the policy decisions already made by the City Council.

Letter of Credit. Paragraph 4A of the Developer's Agreement is modified to read as follows: "Developer will provide the City with an irrevocable letter of credit (or other surety as approved by the City Attorney) as security that the obligations of the Developer under this contract shall be performed.

M:\Public Data\Agreements\2008 Amendment to Albertville Marketplace Dev Agree 2.doc Agenda Item No. 8.K.4. Meeting Date December 15, 2008 95 2. Landscaping. Paragraph 1 J of the Developer's Agreement is modified to read as follows: "Trees, shrubs, berms and screening are to be planted and installed as shown on the landscape plan attached as Exhibit D. Developer shall install landscaping marked "perimeter" and "restaurant" and "street corridor" on Exhibit D by October 31, 2008, The Developer shall guarantee that all new trees shall survive for two full years from the time the planting has been completed or will be replaced at the expense of the Developer. The remaining Landscaping on Exhibit D shall be installed by Lot Owners on a lot -by -lot basis as buildings are constructed on each lot. Each lot owner will be required to post a cash escrow with the City prior to the issuance of a building permit for such lot. The escrow shall cover the estimated cost to purchase and install landscaping for that lot and the escrow shall remain with the City for the full two year guarantee period." 3. Site Plan. Paragraph I of the Developer's Agreement is modified to read as follows: Developer shall develop Said Plat consistent with the site plan attached as Exhibit C. No building and site construction which otherwise complies with the Site Plan attached as Exhibit C shall be required to receive separate site and building plan approvals from the Planning Commission and City Council. In addition, no separate building plan approval is needed from the City Council for any building plan where the building size has been reduced by not more than 10% of the square footage shown on Exhibit C and otherwise complies with the Site Plan shown on Exhibit C. However, this requirement shall not relieve the applicant from obtaining all necessary building plan approvals required by the City's building code. Any changes to the building configuration, increases in building size, decrease in building size greater than 10%, change in parking configuration, curb locations, drive lanes or traffic flow shall require the requisite building and/or site approval from the City Council, and may, depending upon the scope of the change, be required to be referred back to the City's planning commission for additional public hearing proceedings. Developer may delay installing the fence shown on the Site Plan until 60 days after the earlier of such time as 1) the City Council specifically requires such fence to be installed, or 2) the Developer determines that such fence should be installed. 4. Exhibit Modification. Exhibit D of the Developer's Agreement shall be replaced by the Exhibit D attached to this Addendum. 5. Developer's Agreement.

Meeting Date December 15, 2008 4. 1Lm To: Larry Kruse, City Administrator; Albertville City Council From: Mike Couri Date: December 9, 2008 Re: Attorney Report Below is an update of the projects our office has been working on for the City. • Highway 19 South Improvement. Trial on the Psyk appeal is scheduled to begin on Monday, December 15th, unless we get bumped to a later date by another trial with a higher priority. The trial will likely take 1 to 2 days and should be fairly straight forward. Although Judge Mottl will have 90 days after the end of trial to issue a ruling, I would expect a decision within 60 days or so. Leuer's appeal is scheduled for trial on April 2nd • XCEL and Wright Hennepin Franchise Agreement I have gone back and forth with the Xcel representatives on the language of the franchise agreement to arrive at the proposed agreement that is on this meeting's agenda. I have also sent this agreement to Wright Hennepin for their review, but do not know if I will have Wright Hennepin's comments by the Council meeting. Both agreements are the same so that neither company has a competitive advantage over the other. The agreements are for a term of 20 years, like the ones that preceded them. • Albertville Marketplace. The second amended developer's agreement is finished and has just been sent to the developer's attorney for review. I have put it on the Council's agenda as its terms are consistent with those requested by the Developer and already approved in concept by the Council at the last meeting.

Meeting Date December 15, 2008 Mayor and Council Communication — December 9, 2008 Legal — City Attorney's Report Page 2 of 3 • City Hall Plat. Bridget recorded the final plat last week. • Prairie Run. I still have not heard from Gold Key's attorney with a plan for addressing the private street maintenance. I will continue to try to reach him. • TIF Districts. I have left messages with Albert Barthel and Bertha Fehn (I spoke to Bertha again this week) to try to get some documentation of the TIF eligible costs incurred in the construction of the Barthel Bus Garage. I hope to have an answer soon as to whether any of the paperwork has been saved. • Towne Lakes 6th Addition. Hennen's attorney has served the City with a declaratory judgment action similar to the Hunters Pass/S.J. Louis litigation. Hennen is asking the City to draw on the letter of credit and pay Hennen in the event the court rules that the City has the authority to do so. I have been in contact with Alliance Bank (the letter of credit issuer) and expect them to oppose Hennen's request. I would like to have a closed session with the City Council in January to discuss the City's options and the Council's preference as to how the City should respond in the litigation. In the meantime, I have been working with Alliance Bank's attorney to have the bank reissue its letter of credit before it expires. • Hunter's Pass. The Court has issued an order authorizing the City to pay S.J. Louis from the letter of credit funds according to the terms of the settlement agreement. A check for $120,000 to S.J. Louis is on this agenda for approval. Once this is paid to S.J. Louis, the City will make no further payments until all work originally slated to be completed by the Developer is finished. At that time, any remaining funds will be paid to S.J. Louis. • Towne Lakes Water Bill. The agreement to have Scherer Brothers pay the $19,000 in water bills in exchange for the City releasing Scherer Brothers remaining 5 lots from financial liability has been reviewed by Scherer Brothers' attorney. She has requested clarifications in the agreement. While a draft of this agreement has been prepared, I have not had time to finalize it and send it to her for review. I will likely get to this after the Psyk trial. M:\Public Data\City Council\Council Packet information\2008\12-15-08\12 15 2008 8-J- Attorney Report 14, December 9, 2008.doc Agenda Item No. 8.K.4.

A draft of the developer's agreement was sent to Niemeyer on October 2nd for his review. I received his comments back on December 3rd. The comments are extensive, and will likely take a week or two to work through and resolve. This item will come to the City Council for approval in January along with the sewer and water trunk ordinances which will accompany the agreement. • Downtown Plat. The plat is currently being reviewed by the Wright County Surveyor. Once approved, we will obtain signatures and submit it to the County for recording before year's end. • LaBeaux Station. The LaBeaux Station developer's agreement was just returned to me yesterday. I expect to record it shortly. • Parkside Commercial. I will be sending the revised Developer's Agreement to the Developer for signature shortly. • Hoey Silln Relocation Compensation. I have briefly looked at the Federal Highway Administration's interpretation of its landlord/tenant relocation rules as they relate to Hoey, but have not completed my review of this issue. I am also trying to contact Gerhardt Knechtl to determine whether the relocation compensation paid to Mr. Knechtl was made available to Hoey. I will bring this issue back to the Council at a January meeting once I have sufficient information to determine a course of action.

FYCC — BALLFIELD/OUTSIDE ICE CHARGES Council Member Vetsch and I will be meeting on December 161h with St. Michael and FYCC to discuss if the Cities should initiate a charge for youth use of facilities. It is our understanding that the City Council may be interested in a small charge for facilities if both cities charge similar amounts. Charges will likely be less than the actual cost to provide the facilities. DOWNTOWN LAND TRADE The plat is being reviewed by the County and hopefully a closing will be scheduled by year-end. FIRE DEPARTMENT BUDGET-OTSEGO MEETING Council Member Wagner and I met with St. Michael regarding their desire to terminate the City's contract with St. Michael. Currently St. Michaelis proposed to pay Albertville an estimated $24,000 in 2009. If a change must be made, Albertville requested due notice and suggested they honor the 2009 contract amount. ALBERTVILLE/ST. MICHAEL JOINT MEETING A joint meeting is tentatively been set for Wednesday, December 17th at 6:00 p.m. to discuss the following items: 1. Fire Contract: 2.

I-94 INTERCHANGE APPROVAL Mark Dierling reported that the MNDOT District Engineer signed our Layout approval and it is going to MNDOT Central Office for a final signature.
