Motion carried unanimously. CITIZEN FORUM Mayor Peterson asked if there was anyone present to address the Council regarding an issue that is not already on the agenda. Gerard Robeck of5167 Main Avenue NE and Margaret Zehlke of5201 Main Avenue NE brought to the Council's attention there is vacant property between their lots. They understand it is some type of an easement and would like to know what the process is to acquire the property. They have taken the time to maintain the property for now, but would like to make it part of their property. City Attorney Couri informed Mr. Robeck and Ms. Zehlke that the current owner for the piece of property is Mr. Doug Psyk. City Attorney Couri was not aware of what Mr. Psyk's intentions were for the piece of property. Mr. Couri went on to explain there may be some type of a wetland along the side and to the rear of the lots. What the City could do is contact Mr. Psyk notifying him that the abutting property owners are interested in acquiring the property. Ifhe is interested in the proposal, it would require a Public Hearing and a fee to record the easement. 3 CONSENT AGENDA .

It was not on the actual ladder truck, but the 6-foot or higher ladders that are loaded on the fire trucks that required testing. Check number 021904 City Administrator Kruse stated that the reports are at City Hall and will be incorporated in the process when the applicant submits their request to the City for Preliminary Plat, Site and Building Plan review. Check number 021922 City Administrator Kruse informed the Council this is for the advertisement to request for Bids for the STMA Ice Arena.

ALBERT VILLAS - UPDATE City Administrator Kruse reported that on Monday, September 12,2005 the City received 3.75- 5.5 inches of rain. There were larger amounts reported in the St. Michael and Buffalo areas. The area within Albertville that was the main problem was the Albert Villas residential development. There was some minor flooding on Barthel Industrial Drive NE. City staff, Public Works Department, Wastewater Treatment Department, Fire Department and Building Department did an excellent job working creatively with people finding solutions and securing large pumps quickly. I would like to thank the Albertville residents, Boy Scouts and Wright County Reserves for their help, along with the assistance from St. Michael. City Administrator Kruse stated there is some things the City could improve on one being implementing the National Incident Management System (NIMS), which was recently adopted by the City. Other items would be putting together an organization chart of who's in command; identify those in command with safety vests or other means, have a central location on site, work on better ways of communication whether it be via Nextel phones or two-way radios, update the caU list, and put together an on-call list of volunteers to name a few. City Administrator Kruse concluded with the fact that the City should work with Wright County on.implementation of the NIMS, engage the City Engineer to identify cost-effective solutions for additional flood storage and diversion of water throughout the Albert Villas neighborhood, development a comprehensive storm sewer map and city staff review the things learned with each incident, recall what worked and what didn't work, put into place the items that worked and improve on those areas. Mayor Peterson asked if there was anyone in the audience that had something to add to this. Randy Kurtz at 5136 Kahl Avenue NE was glad to hear the City is going to become more proactive regarding the Albert Villas area. The residents liked the quick response they received for help or assistance. The residents feel the City should go after the developer for the problems that appear to keep happening. City Attorney Couri reported that, to the best of the City Engineer's knowledge, when the developer came before the City with this development the system that was designed for the area seemed to be able to handle the water flow. Whether or not what was presented to the City was actually installed or built to design the City cannot tell. Charles Larish at 5295 Kahl Avenue NE suggested the possibility to remove some of the vegetation around the wetland area to allow for more water to flow to the wetlands or dig it out so it could-hold more water. City Engineer Kasma did not know if removing the vegetation would allow the wetland to hold any more water than its present capacity. We also need to take into consideration what the DNR would allow or not allow. 5 Jill Salem at 5193 Kah1 Avenue NE wanted to commend the City on the efforts and quick response regarding the recent to the situation. She brought to the Council and staff's attention with even a small amount of rain the pond rises. It is not the amount of rain, but the constant rainfall that causes the pond or water to rise. . Council advised staff to continue to send notices to the Albert Villas residents to notify them of the status of the progress being made. PURCHASE of MIKE POTTER PROPERTY City Attorney Couri advised Council to have an environmental study completed prior to the purchase to have soil borings taken to check for any toxic waste that may be on the site. City Administrator Kruse suggested that the City Attorney could draw up a purchase agreement contingent on the results of the soil boring tests. MOTION BY Council member Fay, seconded by Council member Vetsch to authorize City staff to proceed with the purchase of the Potter Industrial property described as Lot 14, block 2 to Barthel Industrial Park for $120,000 contingent soil boring being made and the results do not indicate or require significant corrective work. Staffis further authorized at the City's expense to hire Braun Intertec to complete soil borings for evaluation by the City Engineer. If ~oil correction is needed, staff is to bring it back for council direction. Motion carried unanimously. DEPARTMENT BUSINESS WASTEWATERDEPAATMENTUPDATE . Status Uodate City Administrator Kruse reported things are moving along at the Wastewater Treatment Plant. Construction is continuing on the facility and preparation is being made for the expansion of the PW parking lot. BUILDING DEPARTMENT Monthlv Reoort Uodate City Administrator Kruse stated the Building Department is busy issuing permits and doing their best to keep up on inspections. PLANNING DEPARTMENT Minnesota Liillltinl! and Fireolace - Resolution No. 2005-36 City Planner Brixius informed the Council the background of the proposal for the approval for the revised screening and landscaping pian for Minnesota Lighting and Firepiace ioeated on lot 3, block 1, Shoppes at Towne Lakes One. He stated that Minnesota Lighting and Fireplace was in violation of their approved site and building plan due to the placement of the HV AC equipment in the front yard setback. The applicant was directed to pursue approval of a revised landscape and screening plan to address this violation. City Planner Brixius thought staff could handle this administratively, but after seeing the plans and the numerous changes staff did not feel comfortable approving the changes. City Planner Brixius advised the applicant this would . 6 ~ . . . require Planning Commission and City Council approval for the changes to the site and building plan review. City Attorney Couri brought to the City Council's attention this would also require a revised Developer's Agreement to the PUD (Planned Unit Development) for the lot and block. Council had a concern with the side or front yard setback having the patio encroach on the drainage. Council did not approve of the patio to be placed outside in the setback area. MOTION BY Mayor Peterson, seconded by Council member Klecker to approve Resolution No. 2005-36 entitled (Minnesota Lighting and Fireplace) Revised Landscape and Screening of the HV ACequipment only, no patio shall be allowed on the site as amended and on file in the office of the City Clerk. Motion carried unanimously. Hunter's Pass - Final Plat - Resolution No. 2005-37 City Planner Brixius reported that Minnesota Development Agency LLC met with staff on August 30, 2005 to discuss the option of combining lots and shifting property lines. Upon review, staff recommended that any change to the plat occur prior to recording the current final plat. Staff informed the Council this would avoid the vacation of easements, provide clean lot descriptions, and avoid complicated dedication requirements. In review, the lot adjustments do not impact the street alignments, block configuration, or the engineering plans, and reduces the lot count. Staff pointed out that the adjusted lot lines expand the building pads to provide greater flexibility in house location and house size. This amendment must be approved by the City Council. Based on staff review, we recommend that the City Council approve the revised final plat with the following conditions: 1. The City Engineer's review and approval of all drainage and utility easements related to size and location. Block 6 must provide proper easements for the water main to be extended under Mud Lake. 2. The applicant provide a revised listing of building setbacks for the final plat outlining the PUD approved setbacks for each lot in this coved subdivision. 3. The developer enters into a development agreement that outlines all conditions and . approval ofthe original final plat review. MOTION BY Council member Vetsch, seconded by Council member Berning to approve Resolution No. 2005-37 entitled (Hunter's PasS Final Plat - Findings of Fact) as on file in the office of the City Clerk. Motion carried unanimously. City Hall- Resolution No. 2005-38 - Rezoninl! - CUP/PUD - Consolidation of Lots City Planner Brixius reported the City of Albertville has submitted an application for rezoning, conditional use permit (CUP), planned unit development (PUD), and consolidation of the 7 numerous lots. Staffhas reviewed the plans, which have been submitted by Bonestroo. The Planning Commission met and held a public hearing to consider the City Hall application. . Upon thereview of staff and the public testimony, the Planning Commission recommended that the City Council approve the conditional use permit-planned unit development application with the conditions outlined in the September 8, 2005 planning report and the August 3, 2005 engineer's memo with additional conditions recommended by the Planning Commission. After the Council heard the public testimony regarding the City Hall application, they advised staff to hold off on the installation of the fence until construction has begun and a majority of the project has been completed, at which time staff or Council can address the issue again. City Engineer Kasma asked Mark Forbes, Architect for Bonestroo, which way the water would flow off the site. Mr. Forbes informed the City Engineer a majority of the water would flow out onto Main Avenue NE as there is only a catch basin located on 60th Street NE and would not be able to handle the flow. The parking lot will be higher along 60U1 Street NE to direct the water towards Main Avenue NE. There is a storm sewer system in place along Main Avenue NE that would be better capable of handling the water flow. Council advised the City Engineer to review the site and building layout along with the grading of the lot to ensure the water run off will be properly dispersed. . MOTION BY Council member Vetsch, seconded by Council member Fay to approve Resolution No. 2005-38 entitled (City Hall-Rezoning-CUP/PUD-Consolidation-Findings of Fact) contingent on the City Engineer's review of the site and building layout to meet the grading and drainage of the site, as amended and on file in the office of the City Clerk. Motion carried unanimously. ENGINEERING Bolton and Menk. Inc. Proiect Status Undate City Engineer Kasma briefly reviewed the progress report asking if the Council had any questions or concerns. ~ity Engineer Kasma asked the Council for additional time to study the intersection of 57th Street NE and CR 19 to better understand what the options are to head off any possible traffic impacts the additional commercial development will add. Council asked if any staff members checked out the Otsego Creek area after the rain on September 13,2005. Council reported the last meeting the Otsego Creek Authority was held about two (2) years ago. To the best of the Council's understanding it was Otsego's turn to host - hold the next meeting. Council shared with staff that it doesn't improve anything to have the Otsego Creek members to inspect the creek. It would be better to have city staff qualified to walk the creek to identify any concerns or improvements that could be made. Council is . 8 . . . concerned, as they have heard Otsego has installed a number of culverts within the creek. Council advised staff to check and see if there are indeed culverts installed and if they are possibly blocking the drainage or water flow. City Administrator Kruse stated the City Engineer and himself would meet with Otsego staff to review the status of the Otsego Creek and asked when the next meeting will be held. LEGAL PreliminarY Assessment Roll for Prairie Run City Attorney Couri stated that at the last City Council meeting the Council approved to hold a public hearing to assess Prairie Run. To proceed with the Special Assessment hearing the City Council needs to set the Preliminary Assessment Role. City Attorney Couri has presented to the City Council Resolution No. 2005-41 entitled (Prairie Run Preliminary and Shoppes at Prairie Run Assessment Role). The noticed has been published in the North Crow River news, notices have been sent to each of the property owners to be assessed with an affidavit of mailing. MOTION BY Council member Berning, seconded by Council member Klecker to approve Resolution No. 2005-4 entitled (Prairie Run and Shoppes at Prairie Run Preliminary Assessment Roll). Motion carried unanimously. Ootion to Purchase Wrii!ht County Garai!e City Attorney Couri reported that the County is interesting in selling the Maintenance Facility/Truck Station located the comer ofCSAH 18 and CR 19. The City is working with private parties in an effort to redevelop the Maintenance Facility to facilitate its redevelopment efforts. Council advised staff to have an environmental study completed prior to the purchase with the City absorbing the cost for the study. City Attorney Couri confirmed there is no need for a motion at this time. Staff is looking for input from the Council if this is the direction to go or not to pursue the purchase of the Maintenance Facility site. Council advised staff to proceed with the option to purchase the Wright County garage contingent on the outcome of the environmental study. ADMINISTRATION Written Reoort City Administrator Kruse stated he included in the packet a draft of an agenda for the Workshop to be held on Tuesday, September 20, 2005. City Garai!es on Main Avenue NE and 60th Street NE City Administrator Kruse reported that staff has been trying to get a hold of the purchases of the houses the City sold. 9 Council recommended $50,000 up front from the STMA Arena Board and $50,000 over the course of the next five (5) years. Staff suggested obtaining a written contract from each of the following: the City of St. Michael, STMA Ice Arena Board and the Hockey Association to ensure payment. MOTION BY Mayor Peterson, seconded by Council member Berning to award the Bid to KUE Construction, Inc. for construction oflocker rooms at the STMA Ice Arena at a cost not to exceed $650,322. Motion carried unanimously. Taco Stand Council asked staff about the Taco stand located on DJ's property. Do we allow this within the . City or not? Staff stated they would look into the matter and report back at a future meeting. Noise Problem Council wanted to know what the City could do regarding the noise coming from Major's Bar & Grille. Late in the evening or early in the morning you can hear the patrons revving up their engines or motorcycles. The residents across CR 19 were there prior to the establishment. City Attorney Couri shared that the City really could not do anything about the one establishment. The Council would have to set the rules and guidelines for all of the establishments. The City has set the Public Hearing to discuss the liquor license fees for the October 17, 2005 Council meeting. Notices have been mailed to all establishments; therefore, the Council could address the hours of operation and other noise problems to the establishments at such time. Council advised staff to research the surrounding communities who have adopted the 2:00 a.m. closing. Staff should find out if they have had any problems or concerns and to find out if they would consider retracting the 2:00 a.m. closing. Find out from the State of Minnesota if they are aware of any concerns with other areas throughout the state. . 10 . ADoPT RESOLUTION No. 2005-40 ENTITLED (2005B SERIES BONDS - WWTF EXPANSION) MOTION BY Mayor Peterson, seconded by council member Klecker to approve Resolution No. 2005-40 entitled (2005B Series Bonds - WWTF Expansion) authorizing the sale of Revenue Bonds as file in the office of the City Clerk.

City Administrator Kruse stated that according to Paul Donna, Vice President of Partner Northland Securities, the City of Albertville needs to adopt a resolution authorizing the issuance and sale of bonds to finance the City Hall Project. The projected cost for construction of the City Hall is estimated at $3,700,000. Council asked if there were reserves set aside for financial support for the construction of the City Hall. Council wanted to make sure that we are doing this and allocating the funds appropriately. Council would like to make some goals as to where the funds are going.

"!~~~ ALBERTVILLE CITY COUNCIL 1-94 Project Workshop Minutes September 20, 2005 Albertville City Hall 7:00 PM PRESENT: Mayor Donald Peterson, Council members LeRoy Berning, John Vetsch, Ron Klecker and Tom Fay, City Engineer Mark Kasma, Assistant City Engineer John Huseby, City Attorney Mike Couri, Northland Securities-Financial Advisor Paul Donna, Finance Director Tina Lannes, MnDOT Representative Terry Humbert, Wright Council Engineer Wayne Fingalson, and City Administrator Larry Kruse. The goal of the workshop was to gain council consensus on the vision for the future ofI-94 Access at CSAH 19 and CSAH 37 interchanges. A number of interchange alternatives have been considered and the options have been narrowed to 3 viable alternatives that MNDOT and FHW A would agree with. Option 3 was selected by the council as the vision for Albertville, Option 3 is a full C-D road concept that would provide full high speed access to both CSAH 19 and CSAH 37 in both directions on 1-94. Due to the high cost of this option and the current lack of outside funding sources the council has opted for a phasing plan that would deal with immediate and near term traffic needs. This would allow the council to pursue other funding options and reserve funds for future improvements as the City of Albertville grows. An extensive interactive discussion and calculation of assessments and tax levy impacts was held. The cost of Option 3 is estimated at $20 million, if the city were to pay for these on their own the debt burden on the city would be significant and probably equal an amount not acceptable to the average Albertville resident and business. 1-94 PROJECT UPDATE 1. Jaimison Sloboden from SEH presented the three interchange options that FHW A and MnDOT concurred with as long-term viable solutions. These options include: . Option "3" Option 3 is a full Collector-Distributor (C-D) Road System that would provide the highest speed service to both CSAH 37 and CSAH 19 interchanges in both directions. The estimated cost for this interchange is $20 million. . Option "2b" Option 2b is a partial C-D Road System that would provide direct high-speed service to the CSAH 19 interchange; the CSAH 37 interchange would have 1-94 access from 1-94 west by going through the CSAH 19 signals. The estimated cost for this option is $17 million. . Option "B" Option B is a full interchange with direct access to 1-94 at CSAH 19 and a half interchange at CSAH 37 (west ramps closed). The estimated cost for this option is $7 million. 13 Option "3" Full CD Option "2b" Full CD at CR 37 Option "B" Futl19 1/2 CR 37 . $20M $17M $7M 2. The no-build option was presented and discussed to reinforce the need for changing the access configuration of the Albertville Interchanges. The primary failure point would be the intersection of CSAH 19 and CSAH 37. This is due to the greatest demand occurring at CSAH 19 to and from 1-94 east. The turning traffic that would occur at the CSAH 19/CSAH 37 intersections would result in the need to expand CSAH 19 to an 8-lane Road and CSAH 37 would need to be a 5-lane road, the right..of-way impacts would be ( , significant to adjacent properties. The No-build option assumed that N~tr AvertJe was not in place. The traffic demand on the CSAH 37 west ramps was 3,900 vehicles on each ramp or 7,800 total two-way traffic. 3. The Build options were presented from an ADT perspective; traffic is more balanced on the local road system. The build ADT's included an access at Naber Avenue. The traffic demand on CSAH 37 west ramps in Option 2b was 2,000 vehicles on each ramp or 4,000 total two-way traffic. In option B, the demand for CSAH 37 from west 1-94 is served by . traffic existing on CSAH 19 and and either turning north to 70th Street or south to CSAH 37. Detailed operations modeling indicated that Option B would operate in 2030. 4. In all build scenarios the 1-94 bridges over CSAH 19 would need to be replaced to accommodate the needed turn lanes for a full interchange at CSAH 19. A phasing discussion was held; it may be possible to construct Option "B" as the interim project and work towards Option 3 as funding becomes available. ENGINEER PEER REVIEW John Huseby of Bolton and Menk, Inc. provided a memo discussing the peer review of SEH's work to date. The issues he discussed included: 1. Interstate Access Request (IAR) Process. He discussed the Interstate Access Request Process and indicated that the Freeway Study Report prepared by SEH was not an actual IAR it did address the 8 policy items required in IAR. 2. Review and Comment of SED Report. a. Purpose and Need b. Report Summaries (graphic and Text) c. Peak Hour Traffic d. Technical Review of Model 3. Other Comments . 14 . . . WRIGHT COUNTY COMMENTS - WAYNE FINGALSON Wayne Fingalson, County listened to the presentations and agreed the cost of 1-94 Improvements is significant for a small City. Fingalson stated the County will be hosting a Transportation meeting soon and Albertville is invited to make a presentation to the County on CSAH 19 and 1- 94 improvements to see if they can be prioritized into the County's five year plan. Fingalson said the County is financially challenged with a lot of transportation demands. The County Board has for the first time considered bonding rather than pay as you go. Fingalson thanked the Council for their work on the North East Wright County Transportation Study and their efforts to resolve transportation issues. TINKLENBERG GROUP UPDATE - DAN KROM Dan Krom, of the Tinklenberg Group gave an update on funding stating the City has been awarded $800,000 in Federal Funds and they are working with Congress on additional appropriations. Regardless of the outcome of the phasing, Mr. Kromsees the need to continue lobbying efforts to obtain additional funds. MR. Krom fielded several questions on the federal outlook on funds. FINANCIAL ADVISOR COMMENTS - PAUL DONNA Financial Advisor Paul Donna reviewed the fiscal impact to the City for projects ranging from $7 million to $20 million. Donna shared an interactive worksheet with the council, which showed the levy impact with various assessment assumptions. Donna stated the 1-94 project is a huge project for a small city and stressed that it is important for the City to develop a financial plan which preserves the City's bond rating. MnDOT COMMENTS- TERRY HUMBERT Mr. Humbert stated they are agreeable to Option B, Option 2b and Option 3, and that the Option 2b and Option 3 could be phased north and south. Humbert explained that the State would participate some in replacement of bridges with the amount based on the depreciated value of the asset. Humbert stated that the Kadler Interchange was not on anyone's radar for the next one or two decades, as there is a significant amount of local street improvements that would need to be constructed south in St. Michael and north into Otsego, and possibly including a Mississippi River bridge crossing. CITY ADMINISTRATOR KRUSE'S COMMENTS City Administrator Kruse stated he too understands and supports the council's goal to maintain full access at both CSAH 19 and CSAH 37. Kruse stated he has felt uncomfortable with project costs when it topped the $10 million dollar amount, and is very concerned about the fiscal impact of what may be an even larger project. Kruse remains optimistic about the City's ability to gamer additional outside funds but cautioned the City Council that it must be willing to levy and fund the ultimate project, less any assistance the City might receive. Kruse emphasized that if the City has to pay for the majority of a $20 million dollar projects, the fiscal impact for a small city like Albertville would be huge. COUNCIL VIEWS Mayor Peterson polled each council member to hear the council's preference and concerns of each option. Mayor Peterson, Council member Fay and Klecker all stated they understand and 15 .. support the desire for the larger more expensive project, however find it necessary to phase it in - in such a way that it is affordable. All three favored seeking the Federal Access Approval for . Option B, Option 2b and Option 3, with the latter two being able to be split into two separate phases (north and south). Council member Berning favored the more expensive $20 million dollar project (Option 3), with the ability to split the project north and south and hoped to garner a significant amount of additional funding from the City of Otsego, County, State and Federal Government. Council member Vetsch favored none of the above and spoke in favor of a Kadler interchange. All of the Council agreed Albertville should meet with the City of Otsego to make sure we hear their concerns and offer them the opportunity to help build the more extensive project thus achieving their goals to maintain full access at CSAH 37. The meeting ended with the consensus for S.E.H. to pursue a Federal Access Request for a what ultimately may be a full collector distributor road (Option 3), with initial phasing to include the shifting of the westerly ramps on CSAH 37 to the east side of CSAH 19 (Option B). The Council noted that if adequate funds become available from other partners including assessments from local developed commercial property, undeveloped commercial property, and financial participation from the City ofOtsego, Wright County, State of Minnesota and Federal Transportation Administration the Council's willingness to consider building towards the full CD system (Option 3) in affordable increments. .

Mr. Kasma wants to get valley cutter out of drive aisle. Nothing but trouble with plowing around these. 2. Before Mr. Kasma told Jeff McDowell to not let much water out to 60th Street NE. Now he wants to pull high point into the SE comer of building sidewalk and let more water out to 60th Street NE. Make a crown down the middle to let water run both ways. Recommends not adding curb on north side of existing City Hall- maybe next summer. . 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10. 11. . Mr. Kasma wants to eliminate the opening between peninsula and sidewalk. Does not believe it will stay clean during the winter. Mr. Kasma wants to move the catch basin into the middle of the parking. Let water come to middle from the south and north. The catch basin in street is 4 ~ ft. deep. Mr. Kasma. understands that they may only get the new catch basin to be 3 ~ ft. deep. It's all they have to work with. Does not want plows to catch on gutter valleys. Believes that the asphalt will move around and eventually rise or fall making the design to fail. We discussed dividing the handicap parking at the new City Hall with 2 stalls at the east entry and 2 at the west entry. I explained that this change has been addressed. If Jeff McDowell is not getting the slopes he's wanting, he can take the grade up a hair by the west entrance of the New City Hall. Mr. Kasma wants B618 curb around the circle drive. Eliminate surmountable curb at perimeter. Adam from Bolton and Menk will summarize comments and fax it tomorrow. Mr. Forbes to give to Jeff McDowell. 17 Larry has called Xcel about putting power line underground. No response back. Mr. Kasma will call his contact Dave Pearson at Xcel. Larry wants to put power line underground from 60th to the south side of the tracks. LeRoy suggested that power go underground all the way to 57th Street NE. Xcel is not going to pay for it. Larry is thinking in the future going to ornamental streetlights. There are 2 power poles with lights currently. One near the old City Hall and the other is south of the New City Hall. Mr. Kasma suggested putting conduit in now for running the power under the sidewalk. 16.

SEH Memorandum TO: Larry Kruse Albertville City Administrator" FROM: Robert Moberg, PE Project Manager DATE: September 26, 2005 RE: Albertville, MN Cedar Creek South 5th Addition Release of Letter of Credit SEH No. A-ALBEV0213.00 . I have reviewed the request made by Woodside Communities (dated September 19,2005) to have the Letter of Credit released for the subject project. The current amount of the Letter of Credit is $14,825. The curb repair work that was identified previously has been completed.

TO: FROM: DATE: City Council Tim Guimont September 28, 2005 Public Works - Parks Update RE: Street Maintenance Department The City has had several complaints on gravel driveways that spill gravel onto the sidewalk and streets. It is somewhat of a maintenance issue with having to clean the sidewalks, streets and storm sewers. Majority of the gravel driveways are located on Main Avenue NE, with some on 50th Street and a few others scattered around in the older part of Albertville. To the best of the PW Department there are about sixteen (16) driveways that have gravel driveways. The City Park and Lions Shelter have a gravel parking lot, which is another area to consider Storm Sewer Department The City has a storm water pipe, which is failing along 57th Street NE just east of Main Avenue NE. Part or the entire pipe, which crosses 57th Street NE, will have to be replaced and both catch basins require repair. Adam Nafstad, Bolton & Menk, Inc. and Tim Guimont met with Metropolitan Underground, a local contractor, who has repaired storm sewer and catch basins in the past and do excellent work. It is difficult to acquire an exact quote because we are unsure of the entire scope of work to be completed. Metropolitan Underground gave us an estimated quote of $6,958.09, as a worse case scenario to repair and replace everything. Recommendation Motion to approve Metropolitan Underground to repair and replace the storm sewer and catch basins along 57th Street NE east of Main Avenue NE at a cost not to exceed $6,958.09 before winter to avoid dealing with the frost. TG:bmm 37 . . . TO: FROM: DATE: City Council Tina L. Lannes September 28, 2005 Utility Billing Update RE: The City of Albertville in the past has just certified delinquent water bills to taxes instead of proactively collecting them. To collect the delinquent utility bills the City of Albertville has, in the ordinance, that service can be disconnected for non-payment. The City of Albertville, by doing so, can collect the monies owed in a reasonable time frame rather than waiting over a year for collection with property taxes. On September 16, 2005 staff sent out 163 disconnection notices for non-payment on accounts to be paid in full by September 23,2005 otherwise disconnection would apply. Disconnection of Services was scheduled for Thursday September 29,2005. Staff tagged doors with notices of shut off due to non-payment for 68 accounts on Tuesday September 27,2005. Of the 163 the total dollars outstanding was over $51,000 and as of September 28,2005 all but 34 accounts have either paid or set up a payment plan with $10,800 outstanding. 39 . . .

Revenues and Expenditures should be at approximately 75%. REVENUES The City of Albertville is currently at 55.9% of its annual budgeted revenue for the General Fund, which is normal due to the fact the City of Albertville doesn't receive 2nd half of the tax settlements until December. EXPENSES The City of Albertville is currently at 52.0% of its annual budgeted expenses in the General Fund. VARIANCES Tax Settlement is received in December Police and Fire Aid first half is usually received until fall last quarter Lease revenue is mostly the agreements for payment on the reader board sign Administrative fees journal entry done in December for second half of the year Fire Protection second half due December Interest is allocated annually by a journal entry to allocate from investments Assessor expenses increased, Engineering increased due to the city having two engineering firms during the transition period. 43 31010 32100 32110 32120 321M 32210 32:NO 33CJ'I 33405 ~ 33422: 33GO a4DGO 3410'1 34CiCi t 34CiI!IO 341M 34107 34302: :M78O :MIOOO 38210 ..1.00 ..1300 "1~ ..1..10 ..1 !!DO ..1_ 411800 411700 ..1800 ..1910 ..UIIiIIO 42000 42110 42~ 42700 Gtoo 01i1O G200 45000 .-.00 .oIHOO ~1?~~_t,!i_ll~ 2005 Council UpcIa" OENERALFUND 0......1 Fbftd """'u.: :H05 2005 A.....-I ~ "',SD2 28.3117 '..7aa 3114 2,G117 G? .223 40D - .

The site is located east of County Road 19, north of West Laketowne Drive, and east of Linwood Drive. The development plan proposes five buildings with a mix of restaurants, commercial, and retail space. The site area is 7.3 acres. In order to proceed with the development, the following development applications will need to be approved: 1) Preliminary Plat / Planned Unit Development. A CUP/PUD is necessary due to multiple commercial uses and shared accesses throughout the site. 2) Final Plat. 3) Site and Building Plan Review. Below is a review of the submitted plans dated August 1,2005. Attached for reference: Exhibit A: Exhibit B: Exhibit C: Exhibit D: Overall Site Plan Pedestrian and Truck Circulation Plan Landscaping Plan City Engineer's Comments 45 ISSUES ANALYSIS . Conceptual Review. The plan will be processed as a PUD with a base zoning ofB-2A. The proposed multi-tenant retail use is permitted within the B-2A District. The proposed plan will include five lots and one outlot. The lots are intended to be accessed via a private drive system that will run north-south via West Laketowne Drive in the south, 68th Street NE in the north. An eastern access is located along Linwood Drive. The development of the Shoppes of Towne Lakes Phase II is intended to be an extension of the development plan which occurred during Phase I. The overall site includes a mix of restaurants, retail and commercial. During Phase I, the City sought that in exchange for the bank located in the northwestern portion of the site, plans for Phase II would require two restaurants. In review of the concept plan, we offer the following comments: Site Design. There are five lots and one outlot associated with the site area. The B-2A District requires the following minimum setbacks: Front yard: Side yard: Rear yard: 35 feet 10 feet or 35 feet when abutting an R District or adjacent to a public street 20 feet or 35 feet when abutting an R District or adjacent public street The applicant is seeking flexibility from the B-2A setback requirements of the Ordinance. The proposed site plan illustrates a 25- foot setback off of County Road 19 and a 20- foot setback off . of all other public and private streets. These reduced setbacks are consistent with approvals given in the Phase I PUD. The buildings of Lot C, Lot D and Lot F are located within 10, 16 and 20 feet of the private drive, respectively. Our office would recommend that buildings be setback a minimum of 20 feet from the private drive to ensure that the streetscape treatments, traffic visibility and uniform setbacks are upheld. Lots. Many of the lots within the site area are irregularly shaped. As a condition of approval, the applicant will be required to plat the lots to meet the lot requirements of the Ordinance as irregularly shaped lots will be prohibited. Below is a table of the proposed lot sizes within the development. ,--_.-.-------- ..,..---- B-2A Requirements Lot A LotB LotC LotE LotF Lot Area 1 acre 1.38 acres 1.11 acres 1.22 acres .52 acres .88 acres Lot 150 feet 220 feet 255 feet 280 feet 240 feet 180 feet Width According to the Ordinance, the maximum site coverage allowed is 80%. The maximum coverage of the site will be calculated using the total site area. The maximum site coverage is approximately 78%. Because of the area of Outlot A, the site appears to meet the maximum lot requirement however, a more detailed calculation will occur during the preliminary plat stage. . 46 . . . Outlot A. This lot is intended to be a pond for Phase II and Phase III. The outlot was expanded to accommodate the treatment of these two areas. The City Engineer should comment on the stormwater capacity for both phases as well as issues related to easements and maintenance. Additionally, the City Engineer should comment on additional right-of-way needed for a left- turn / right-turn lane on West Laketowne Drive. Lot B. This lot is located in the northeastern portion of the site. The total site area is 44,421 square feet. A 4,000 square foot restaurant is proposed in this location. The building's locatiQn will take advantage of County Road 19 exposure. A drive-through is proposed in the northern portion of the site. Access to the restaurant will occur via the private drive. At the time of preliminary plat, the developer will be required to demonstrate that the site has sufficient room for stacking space as 120 feet will be required. Staff also recommends that the drive-through be a minimum of 18 feet in width (the applicant is proposing 15 feet) to accommodate a service and escape lane. The drive lane must be setback a minimum of 15 feet from the property line. Lot C. A 10,000 square foot commercial and retail building is proposed for Lot C. As a condition of approval, the developer should revise the plan to show a minimum 20 foot setback off of the private drive. The access point should align with Lot B to ensure access ease within the site. Because of the location nearest to residential uses in the east, as a condition of approval, the building's design should be of a higher standard. Lot D. An 8,000 square foot restaurant and retail building is proposed for Lot D. The building's location will take advantage of County Road 19 exposure. The building should be setback a minimum of20 feet off the private drive to ensure a uniform setback within the site area. Lot E. A 5,000 square foot commercial and retail building is proposed for Lot E. The access point should align with Lot D to ensure access ease within the site. Because of the location nearest to residential uses in the east, as a condition of approval, the building's design should be of a higher standard. Lot F. A 5,000 square foot commercial and retail building is proposed within this lot. As a condition of approval, the building should be setback a minimum of 20 feet from the private drive. Because of the location nearest to residential uses in the east, as a condition of approval, the building's design should be of a higher standard. Parking. Below is a review of the parking requirements proposed for the site. .. LotB LotC LotD LotE LotF Proposed 70 stalls 50 stalls 135 stalls 28 stalls 28 stalls Required 75 stalls 45 stalls 150 stalls 23 stalls 23 stalls Difference -5 stalls +5 -15 stalls +5 +5 Parking calculations are based upon restaurants having 2/3 seating area and 1/3 kitchen spaces. Retail and commercial building calculations are based upon the building's square footage 47 __ J divided by 200. A 10% building reduction was also calculated for each building. Based upon these calculations, the site is under parked by five parking stalls. The Planning Commission and . City Council should direct the applicant regarding the need for additional parking if there is a concern about being below the minimum parking requirements. A detailed parking calculation will occur as building plans are submitted for review during the preliminary plat stage. The City has allowed reductions in parking provided that it can be demonstrated that the anticipated parking demand will not impede or disrupt pedestrian or vehicle traffic throughout the total site area. In this case, the developer has prepared comprehensive pedestrian and traffic plans within the site area. To assist in the overall flow of traffic throughout the site, access points for the individual lots should align to provide full intersections along the private drives where applicable. The 28 foot private drive width is acceptable, provided there is no parking allowed on any of the streets. The applicant will be required to provided no-parking signage for these areas. _ The applicant will be required to submit shared access and parking agreements that will run . - ~across all lots to allow for common use of parking in the event of overflow parking need. All parking must be setback a minimum of 15 feet from the property line. The drive aisle of Lot B should be revised to accommodate this setback. Traffic Circulation and Loading. The applicant has identified a pedestrian and truck circulation plan. The overall traffic circulation plan is catered to an automobile development. While the pedestrian plan is acceptable as a means of moving people within individual lots, the . overall lot layout isolates adjoining buildings and discourages pedestrian movement between buildings without first crossing parking lots or streets. The applicant has provided sidewalks and crosswalks as part of the overall plan, however. The overall truck circulation plan is acceptable and loading areas are identified within the site plan. Because of the limited amount of space for loading as well as the need for parking, loading hours will be limited to early morning or non-peak business hours to mitigate traffic and parking space issues. The applicant shall be required to provide a narrative to the City indicating the anticipated hours of loading operations for the site. Lighting. The applicant will be required to submit a photometric plan as part of the overall application. The lighting scheme should duplicate that of the Shoppes of Towne Lakes Phase I. The photometric plan must meet the requirements of the Albertville Zoning Ordinance. According to Section 1000.10 of the Zoning Ordinance, any light or combination of lights, which cast light on a public street, shall not exceed one (1) foot candle (meter reading) as measured from the centerline of said street. The applicant will be required to submit details regarding all lighting fixtures, including pole height for all fixtures as part of approval of the site and building plan review. The pole fixtures and lighting fixtures should be provided for review and approval of the City. . 48 . Landscaping. The applicant has submitted a preliminary landscaping plan for review. The plan includes a mix of deciduous trees, evergreens, shrubs, and perennial flowers. The overall site is well landscaped, however, additional landscaping should occur at the periphery of Outlot A. Larger plantings should replace the spirea around the loading and trash enclosure areas. Staff would also recommend that the applicant follow the same planting design from Phase I. This must include intensifying the plantings along private drives while maintaining site lines into the various buildings. It should also include plantings at the periphery of the site adjacent to the residential uses to the east. All landscaped areas will be irrigated. All areas not covered with shrubs or trees will be sodded. The revised landscaping plan and related species will be reviewed during the preliminary plat stage. Grading, Drainage and Utility Plan. The applicant will be required to submit a grading, drainage, and utility plan for review. Those plans are subject to the review and approval of the City Engineer. . Building Design. No specific building plans have been proposed as part of the concept plan. As part of PUD approval however, the applicant will be required to provide for higher architectural designs within each building. The City discussed the need for higher degrees of brick and stone during Phase I. The buildings of Phase II should be of the highest quality, using a combination of stone and brick throughout each building. The applicant will be required to submit PUD architectural standards during the preliminary plat stage. The same architectural standards will also be required for all monument signage within the site. At the time of preliminary plat, the applicant will be required to submit color building elevations for the review and approval of the Planning Commission. The Planning Commission should comment on the acceptability of the exterior treatments and colors. All air condition units and mechanical equipment shall be stored on the roof of all buildings and must be properly screened. Ifhipped or cross-hipped roofs are proposed, the applicant will be required to identify the heating and air conditioning units within the site. Additional screening of these areas will be required. Trash Enclosures. Trash enclosures are located outside of each building. As a condition of approval, exterior finishes of the trash enclosure shall be compatible with the exterior architectural features of the principal building. Additional screening will be required around each enclosure. Outdoor Display. No outdoor display will be allowed within the site. Snow Removal. Because of the level of impervious surface within the site area, snow storage and snow removal will be an issue. As a condition of approval, the applicant must submit a detailed snow storage plan. Snow storage may not impede the traffic circulation plan or reduce the overall parking stall count within the site. . Fire Protection. The overall plan shall be subject to the review and approval of the City. 49 Signage. The applicant has identified three monument signs located at each entrance and a . pylon sign located along County Road 19. The monument sign located off of 68th Street and west of Linwood Drive must be setback a minimum of 10 feet from the property line. A separate comprehensive sign plan will be required as part of the overall site. Detailed information related to sign size, lighting, and additional locations within the site shall be submitted and reviewed as a separate application. CONCLUSION The purpose of the concept plan is to allow for discussion between staff, City Officials, and the applicant. Approval of the Concept Plan does not constitute development rights for the site. A separate public hearing will be required during the preliminary plat stage. Our office finds the Concept Plan for Shoppes of Towne Lakes Phase II acceptable. The overall plan includes a mix of retail, commercial, and restaurants within the Towne Lakes area. Additionally, the applicant is proposing a comprehensive landscaping plan that is similar with previous plans within this area. In order to proceed with the development plan, the applicant will be required to submit an application for the following: 1) Preliminary Plat I Planned Unit Development. A PUD is necessary due to multiple commercial uses and shared accesses throughout the site. 2) Final Plat. . 3) Site and Building Plan Review. Based upon the submitted concept plan, our office would recommend the following: A. Lots. Setbacks, and Site Area 1. As a condition of approval, the applicant will be required to plat the lots to meet the minimum lot requirements of the Ordinance, as irregularly shaped lots will be prohibited. 2. All buildings must be setback a minimum of 20 feet from public and private streets to ensure street and streetscape treatments, traffic visibility and uniform setbacks are upheld. 3. At the time of preliminary plat, the developer will be required to demonstrate that Lot B has sufficient room for stacking space. Staff would also recommend that the drive-through be a minimum of 18 feet in width to accommodate higher demands of traffic, loading, and snow-storage. 4. No outdoor display areas shall be allowed. . 50 . . . B. Grading and Drainage 1. The City Engineer should comment on the stormwater capacity of Outlot A for both phases as well as issues related to easements and maintenance. c. Streets 1. To assist in the overall flow of traffic throughout the site, access points for the individual lots should align to provide full intersections along the private drives where applicable. 2.

Box 9 Albertville, MN 55301 RE: Proposed Engineering Services ~ County Ditch 9 Storm Water Report Albertville, Minnesota Dear Mr.~Kruse: This report will study the County Ditch 9 Watershed. This Watershed is identified in Figure No. 3 in S.E.H.'s report dated June 2004 (see attached). In the future the City may desire to prepare a Surface Water Management Plan (SWMP) that would cover the entire City. This study will be written such that the information provided can be easily inserted into a future SWMP. Attached is Bolton & Menk's project scope of work and proposed fees. We have seperated our proposed scope of services into six (6) tasks. A description of each task and the associated fee is included. All work will be completed on an hourly basis with a not-to-exceed the total fee of $53,150. We will begin work immediately upon notice to proceed. Thank you for the continued opportunity to present this proposal for engineering services in Albertville. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to call. Sincerely, BOLTON & MENK, INC. .

COUNTY DITCH 9 FLOOD STUDY SCOPE OF WORK We have separated our proposed scope of services into six (6) tasks. The tasks and subtasks are presented in the following paragraphs: TASK 1 - KICK OFF MEETING Subtask 1.1 - Bolton & Menk proposes to meet with City staff to discuss data collection and surveying needs, preliminary design considerations, staff input on storm damage and strategies for public involvement (including the gathering of information on private property) .............................................................$400 TASK 2 - OBTAIN TOPOGRAPHICAL DATA Subtask 2.1 - Secure all existing model information available .................................$1,250 Bolton & Menk will gather all available existing information related to the storm sewer system, record drawings,. past studies and other available information to ensure that the existing and proposed models consider all data available and design alternatives previously proposed. Bolton & Menk has researched the available information and found that the City has already paid for 2-foot contour mapping. This information will be extremely helpful in reviewing the internal watershed boundaries and flood storage capacities of the existing ponds. We have also spoken to the City of St. Michael and they are willing to share 2-foot contour mapping of their City. As you know, a large subwatershed exists in St. Michael directly west of the Albert Villas Subdivision. Subtask 2.2 - Collect field survey data of critical low floor elevations, culvert inverts, road low point cross-sections, County Ditch 9 cross-sections, and verify wetland contours and normal pond elevations. ... ........................................ ...........................$15,000 In rt:gard to contours, 2-fooi atrial contour mapping is typically accurate to within 1 foot of the actual elevations. Also, aerial contour mapping in the vicinity of wetlands has been even less accurate. Bolton & Menk will perform additional surveys to augment the available data and verify the accuracy of the ultimate hydrologic modeling. The survey collection includes critical culvert inverts, road low point cross-sections, County Ditch 9 cross-sections, wetland contours and normal pond elevations. Critical floor elevations will also be surveyed so that our models can determine the impact 61 of the various proposed improvements on the probability of flooding key properties known to be impacted by the recent rainfalls. For purposes of this . proposal, the number of basement floor elevations has been limited to approximately 20 homes. The surveys performed here include only the key areas of hydrologic concern and potential construction locations. The detail will not be sufficient for preparing final construction plans. Subtask 2.3 - Bolton & Menk will conduct a field review with City staff. This task will be completed once all maps and field data has been obtained. ......... ..... ... ...... ..................................................... ......$1,100 TASK 3 - HYDRAULIC MODELING Subtask 3.1 - Model existing watershed conditions .................................................$15,200 The Hydro CAD software program will be used to model the existing watershed. Included in this task will be calibration of the model relative to field observations by City staff. Subtask 3.2 - XPSWMM model review ......................................................................$3,100 The existing model previously prepared as a result of the 2003 flood event will be reviewed and compared to the Hydro CAD model for accuracy. This subtask will be performed simultaneously with Subtask 3.1 to ensure efficiency in the modeling process. . Subtask 3.3 - Model alternative design solutions .......................................................$7,100 Evaluate multiple design solutions as determined in the preliminary staff and field review meetings using the Hydro CAD model to develop improvements capable of handling the design storm event. TASK 4 - FORMULATE PROBABLE COSTS OF ALTERNATIVES Subtask 4.1 - Opinions of Probable cost will be prepared for each alternative developed ....... ..................... ... ...... ............... ............................................$4,500 Probable costs will be prepared for all design solutions. TASK 5 - MEET WITH CITY STAFF TO DISCUSS RECOMMENDED AL TERNA TIVES Subtask 5.1 - Bolton & Menk will meet with City staff to discuss recommended alternatives and the pros and cons of each design .................................$400 . 62 e . . TASK 6 - PREPARE STORM WATER STUDY REPORT ...........................................$5,100 Subtask 6.1 - Bolton & Menk will prepare a fmal study report that will include a narrative of the background of the study, the various alternatives considered, the design details, assumptions, modeling data, figures depicting the existing and proposed conditions, the fmal alternatives presented and recommendations.

Don Peterson, Mayor ArrEST TO: Bridget Miller, City Clerk 69 . To: Mayor and City Council From: Dan Krom, Tinklenberg Group Date: September 2005 Subject: Albertville- 1-94 Interchange Project Federal Funding Update Authorization Funding The federal transportation authorization legislation (SAFETEA_LU) signed into law last month identified $800,000 in High Priority Project (HPP) for the 1-94 interchange project in Albertville. The funding will be available during the remaining five years of the authorization period. Mn/DOT will be the agency that distributes the funds for these projects. Since HPP funds "reprioritize" MN/DOT projects identified in the State Transportation Investment Plan (STIP), they have not made the decision on which projects will receive their funding and the time frame. In the past, Mn/DOT has "advanced" the funds for projects that are ready to proceed early during the authorization period and back filled from those that are ready during the final years of the act Mn/DOT is expected to identify how the funding wilt be distributed by this November. The Tinklenberg Group will continue to monitor information from Mn/DOT and develop the plan to access the funding (Le., STIP amendment, process forms and address project funding issues, etc.,) during the remainder of 2005. . FFY'06 Annual transportation Appropriations The City submitted an appropriations request for $1.5 million for FFY'06. This funding would be in addition to the $800,000 in HPP funds already identified. The annual transportation legislation was passed out of the House Transportation Appropriations Committee in August and is at least a few weeks away from being considered by the Senate. Typically the House and Senate do not identify specific projects in their versions of the bill. When the legislation goes to a House-Senate Conference Committee projects are identified. We continue to work with our congressional offices on securing an appropriations for the project. With only two of twelve regular appropriations bills so far enacted into law, a "Continuing Resolution" (CR) will be necessary in order to maintain government funding beyond the Oct. 1 beginning of the new fiscal year. The House is expected to adopt a CR that will keep agencies running through November 18. In recent years a series of CRs have been necessary well into the next calendar year. Identifying and communicating the future funding requests with elected officials is essential to increasing the federal share of the project and reduce the financial impact on the city and local residents. The Tinklenberg Group will work with City staff in developing a strategy for ongoing funding requests in preparation for the next appropriations cycle that begins early next year. . Ongoing Communication Activities In addition to tracking funding issues, the Tinklenberg Group will assist the City in communications with elected officials related to the status of the project. A summary of project activities, the staging plan approved by the City Council, concurrence with the staging approach are among the issues that will be part of an update we will prepare for state and federal elected officials. The materials will be available to be included on the City's web site, City newsletter or any other citywide communication outlet. At the direction of the City, we will work with staff to 71 plan a dialogue with local business interests, developers and neighboring communitie related to the project. These activities wm begin at the direction of the City and will be com leted by . the end of December. 72 . . . ;J~ ! ~ ;J~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ..4-P 7 .~/~7.u' ~.. ~~ ~ ---~ -.. ~._~--- A...... ~u ~~ ~ R~ ........mm ~....~ --'---- ..... ..... --_ . - . .._ .... __ _'._ . _u_ ~__ _._ _ ~ ~ q ~ ..~._ !()- :?-o~.. .--: --.
