After adjusting for market conditions and equalization for the 2026 assessment, the final ration is 95% which is a result of a 2.53% increase of total City residential value. • Information on the Wright County Sales Study 2026 which is located on their website.

Luedke, City Clerk Agenda Page 8 Mayor and Council Request for Action May 4, 2026 SUBJECT: CONSENT – FINANCE – PAYMENT OF BILLS RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider the following: MOTION TO: Authorize the Monday, May 4, 2026, payment of the claims as presented except the bills specifically pulled, which are passed by separate motion. The claims listing has been provided to Council as a separate document. The claims listing is available for public viewing at City Hall upon request. BACKGROUND: The City processes claims on a semi-monthly basis. The bills are approved through their respective departments and administration and passed onto the City Council for approval. KEY ISSUES: • Account codes starting with 810 are STMA Arena Expenses/Vendors (highlighted) and key issues will be presented in the claims listing document. POLICY/PRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: It is the City’s policy to review and approve payables on a semi-monthly basis. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: City staff have reviewed and recommend approval of payments presented. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The Mayor and Council have the authority to approve all bills pursuant to Minnesota State Law, which requires all bills to be paid in a timely manner, generally within 30 days unless one party determines to dispute the billing. Responsible Person: Tina Lannes, Finance Director Submitted through: Adam Nafstad, City Administrator-PWD Attachment: • List of Claims (under separate cover) Agenda Page 9 Mayor and Council Request for Action May 4, 2026 SUBJECT: CONSENT – CLERK – TALLYING WRITE-IN VOTES FOR LOCAL ELECTIVE OFFICE RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider the following: MOTION TO: Adopt Resolution No. 2026-12 to tally write-in votes for individuals only if the total number of write-in votes for the office is equal to or greater than the lowest number received by a ballot-listed candidate. BACKGROUND: During the 2023 Legislative Session, several changes were made to election administration laws. Minnesota Statute §204B.09, Subd. 3(b) authorizes the governing body of a statutory city to adopt a resolution establishing how write-in votes are counted for local elective office. The statute permits two options: 1)Require a write-in candidate to file a written request with the chief election official no later than the 19th day before the election in order to have their votes individually recorded; or 2)Require that individual write-in votes be recorded only if the total number of write-in votes for the office is equal to or greater than the lowest number of received by a ballot- listed candidate. The current process for counting write-in votes is time consuming and generally does not affect election outcome unless a write-in candidate receives the highest number of votes. City staff recommend adopting a resolution under option two, which would require individual write-in votes to be recorded only if they meet a specified threshold. The City Council must adopt any resolution prior to the opening of candidate filing and once adopted, the resolution will remain in effect until amended or replaced by subsequent resolution. KEY ISSUES: •Minnesota law allows cities to decide how write-in votes are counted in local elections. •The City can choose to only record individual write-in votes if they meet a vote threshold. •Any resolution must be adopted before candidate filing opens and stays in effect until changed. POLICY/PRACTICES CONSIDERATIONS: The Mayor and City Council have the authority to govern the process for write-in votes for local elections. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: There is no financial consideration for this item. Agenda Page 10 Mayor and Council Request for Action – May 4, 2026 Consent – Clerk – Write-In Votes for Local Election Page 2 of 2 Responsible Person: Kris Luedke, City Clerk Submitted Through: Adam Nafstad, City Administrator-PWD Attachments: •Resolution No. 2026-12 Agenda Page 11 CITY OF ALBERTVILLE COUNTY OF WRIGHT STATE OF MINNESOTA RESOLUTION NO. 2026-12 RESOLUTION FOR TALLYING WRITE-IN VOTES FOR LOCAL ELECTIVE OFFICE WHEREAS, Minnesota Statue, Section 204B.09, Subd. 3 allows for governing body of a statutory or home rule charter city to adopt a resolution governing the counting of write-in votes for local elective office; and WHEREAS, the current write-in vote counting process is overly time consuming and unnecessary. It does not result in a change in election results unless a single write-in candidate receives the most votes for an office; and WHEREAS, a City that adopts a resolution must do so before the first day of filing for office. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Albertville Minnesota, as follows: That the City of Albertville hereby requires that write-in votes for an individual candidate will only be individually recorded if the total number of write-in votes for that office is equal to or greater than the fewest number of non-write-in votes for a ballot candidate. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED pursuant to Minnesota Statute 204B09, Subd. 3, this resolution shall remain in effect until a subsequent resolution on the same subject is adopted by the City of Albertville. Adopted by the City Council of the City of Albertville on this 4th day of May 2026. ____________________________ Jillian Hendrickson, Mayor ATTEST: Kristine A.

As independent experts, SLA is focused on the City’s best interest in providing lighting design, lighting and installation specifications, purchasing guidance, construction monitoring, and performance verification for the new lighting system. We are here to save you time, save you money, and mitigate project headaches. SLA will provide the City with cost-saving options while making sure the sports lighting system is designed correctly. Additionally, we provide installation management to ensure the work is done correctly and troubleshoot onsite issues that may arise. After the installation is complete, SLA will verify that the supplier and installer have met the project requirements. Project Planning and Purchasing • Guide the purchasing process for the softball field lighting system to maximize the City’s purchasing power. • Create a “road map” to successfully plan your project and identify the key components (lighting design, lighting supply, and lighting installation). • Provide design criteria, LED lighting specifications, and installation specifications that are designed in the best interest of the City. • Provide independent review and evaluation of submitted light scans to ensure the lighting system meets project specification requirements and City ordinances. • Help the City in awarding contracts to the lighting manufacturer and the installation contractor. Installation Management & Lighting Verification Services • Provide onsite monitoring of the lighting installation to verify that the work is being performed correctly and that the contractor is meeting the project requirements. • Serve as the liaison between the City and the installing contractor to review any construction problems that may occur. Agenda Page 17 Page | 2 EXPERT // PROVEN // PREFERRED • Provide insight and potential solutions in resolving any installation issues. • Test the lighting system to verify that the system has been designed and installed properly. • Provide recommendations if lighting deficiencies are found and work with the contractor to solve any issues. • Confirm that any required corrections or modifications have been made to the lighting system. • Provide a lighting report showing that the lighting system meets the project specification requirements. Total Project Cost: $13,285 Every outdoor sports lighting project is multifaceted and presents a unique set of challenges. For those who don’t regularly work with outdoor lighting, it can be a daunting task, and the risk of project delays and additional costs is substantial. With SLA’s experience and industry leadership, you can be confident that you will have the best working on your behalf.

Currently the three new Probationary Paid-On-Call Firefighters are using both primary and secondary turn-out gear that was not specifically sized for them. The quote for three sets of gear is $13,173 and is funded through the Fire Department capital budget and has a service-life of 10-years. Staff is recommending approval of the purchase of 3 sets of turnout gear for the Fire Department. KEY ISSUES: • The Fire Department Board of Officers has reviewed the purchase and is recommending Council action. • The $13,173 purchase is funded through the Fire Department capital budget. POLICY CONSIDERATIONS: It is City policy for the Council to review and approve all capital purchases and investments. FINANCIAL CONSIDERATIONS: The cost associated with the turn out gear is funded by the Fire Department capital plan. LEGAL CONSIDERATIONS: The City has the authority to purchase equipment under the State of Minnesota contract or by quotes.

Sincerely, Steven Knight, PhD Partner 816-500-7481 sknight@fitchassoc.com 2026 Shared Services Study 4 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 31 Table of Contents PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH 6 SCOPE OF WORK AND METHODOLOGY 10 How the Firm is Organized to Provide the Required Services 15 Team Qualifications, Expertise, and Experience 16 Tasks and Responsibilities 20 PROJECT SCHEDULE 21 FEE PROPOSAL 23 QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE 25 Firm Background Information 25 References 34 2026 Shared Services Study 5 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 32 PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH Fitch & Associates understands that the Cities of Albertville, Hanover, and St. Michael are jointly seeking an experienced, independent consultant to evaluate the benefits, risks, and long-term implications of joining together three municipal fire agencies into a more formal shared services or consolidated model. Each City is facing growth pressures from development, and changing community risk profiles that will increase fire protection service demand. At the same time, the Departments may be experiencing increasing staffing pressures driven by paid-on-call recruitment and retention challenges, while also needing to plan for facilities, apparatus, and other capital assets in a way that is sustainable well into the future. The Cities are equal partners in this study and are looking for alternatives to the status quo that provide optimal service levels across the service area, with an equitable distribution of resources and costs. Fitch & Associates views this feasibility study as an opportunity to objectively examine the full range of alternatives—from continuation of existing service models with enhanced coordination, through various shared services configurations, up to full consolidation, including Fire District or Joint Powers Agreement structures. Our role is to provide data-driven, unbiased analysis that clearly presents advantages, disadvantages, opportunities, and risks for each option, including governance and organizational structures, asset allocation, staffing models, cost allocation, and the legal requirements associated with forming, combining, or dissolving entities such as Relief Associations. We recognize the Cities’ specific interest in understanding tax rate implications, potential offsets to current city tax rates under a new district, and the short-, mid-, and long-range financial impacts of any consolidated or merged entity. Our overall objective is to deliver a comprehensive, best-practice fire service evaluation that combines Community Risk Assessment and Standards of Cover analysis, organizational and financial feasibility analysis, and governance and legal planning specific to Minnesota fire districts and joint powers entities. Consistent with the RFP, our work will be aligned with CPSE/CFAI Standards of Cover methodologies, NFPA standards, and Minnesota statutory requirements. We will begin with a detailed examination of each agency and community—including demographics, growth history and projections, governance, staffing models, facilities and apparatus, budgets, and mutual aid relationships—so that each City’s unique context is clearly documented prior to evaluating shared service scenarios. Fitch & Associates will then conduct a structured community risk and service demand analysis, using historical, current, and predicted calls for service, land use and zoning data, demographics, GIS, and growth projections to identify predictable and high-risk occupancies, response challenges, and service demand patterns by geography and time. We will develop a risk-based matrix that links 2026 Shared Services Study 6 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 33 staffing levels, apparatus and deployment needs, time and performance objectives, future station locations, station response boundaries, and personnel assignment to stations. This will be complemented by a system performance and deployment analysis that includes response time performance (call processing, turnout, travel, and total response), distribution, concentration, reliability, and capacity studies, as well as evaluation of mutual and automatic aid effectiveness and identification of service gaps and redundancies. Using these findings, we will build and compare multiple shared services and consolidation options that reflect the Cities’ priorities and concerns. For each option, Fitch & Associates will describe governance structures, organizational structures, staffing needs and options (including shared personnel), fire code and inspection administration, asset and liability allocation, service level variations by zone, and phasing options. We will review existing contracts for fire services provided to neighboring jurisdictions and assess their capacity for continuation or modification under different scenarios. Our financial analysis will provide five-year revenue and expense projections for various service level scenarios, evaluate funding mechanisms and tax impacts, and test alternative cost-allocation models based on population, assessed value, service demand, or hybrid approaches, while highlighting both potential cost savings and transition costs. Fitch & Associates will maintain high availability and responsiveness to the Departments and Cities throughout the project. A dedicated project manager will serve as the primary point of contact, coordinate data requests, and ensure timely responses to questions and additional information needs. We will structure our work plan to minimize administrative burden on Fire Department and City staff, using clear data request lists, scheduled check-in meetings, and draft review periods aligned with the project timeline outlined in the RFP. Our approach explicitly acknowledges that stakeholder interests may differ; we will engage elected officials, department leadership, line personnel, and other stakeholders to understand their perspectives and will present options in a way that clearly articulates tradeoffs without advocating for a single predetermined outcome. From a technical standpoint, Fitch & Associates will apply robust statistical and analytical methodologies to ensure that all findings and recommendations are evidence-based. We anticipate using the Cities’ CAD and RMS data, budget and financial records, GIS layers, land use and zoning information, growth projections, mutual aid and contract information, and other operational and planning data identified in the RFP as primary data sources. These data will be analyzed using accepted quantitative methods for incident pattern analysis, response time and reliability analysis, and cost modeling, coupled with qualitative insights from site visits and stakeholder interviews. The result will be a set of clear, grounded, and implementable recommendations that provide the Cities of Albertville, Hanover, and St. Michael with a defensible basis for decisions about shared fire services now and into the future. 2026 Shared Services Study 7 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 34 PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND INTERACTION WITH CITIES AND DEPARTMENTS Our project management is a disciplined and structured process. Key activities are clearly outlined and logically organized to produce specific deliverables within the defined period of time. We will review our progress against the work plan on a regular basis to ensure that we are progressing according to plan. Any deviations will be flagged immediately, and appropriate action taken, through discussion with you, to address issues. As designed, this project will be transparent and highly collaborative. It is essential to the FITCH team that the key stakeholders have sufficient opportunity for input and guidance throughout the project. This proposal is assuming a kick-off meeting with the Cities’ and Departments’ leadership. As proposed, the FITCH team will conduct a minimum of three onsite visits including a formal presentation of the findings and at least one public input meeting, for each agency (if desired). At a minimum, the FITCH team will meet with elected officials, fire department administration, and identified key stakeholders. We make every effort to respond to communications within the same day, but if unable to do so, we will return communications with 24 hours. All of these activities and control measures ensure that we complete projects on time and within budget. SERVICE AVAILABILITY FITCH does not allow our consultants to work more than three projects at a time. In addition, if the projects are large or complex, we may limit the consultants’ commitments accordingly. As a client centric and high-engagement consulting firm, we ensure that the resources and personnel dedicated to the project have ample time and availability to accomplish all goals and tasks as designed. Additionally, as a client centric firm, we routinely work outside of “traditional” working hours to accommodate differences in time zones, public engagement and publicly noticed meetings, as well as travel. In other words, we will accommodate the schedules that best meet our clients’ needs. PROJECT OBJECTIVITY AND NEUTRALITY The FITCH team has broad-based expertise that naturally blends the competing demands for efficiency and system design in an objective and neutral manner. By design, the firm utilizes a data and research-based foundation, coupled with inner rater reliability procedures, that controls for the naturally occurring biases. Our firm has extensive experience in high-performance system design and efficiency in the use of human and physical resources. Finally, FITCH brings nearly 150 years of direct fire/EMS service system leadership and management experience to this project that serves to balance the “do more with less” movement with realistic and highly implementable solutions for long- term sustainability while maintaining high quality services. 2026 Shared Services Study 8 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 35 AREAS OF CONCERN AND VARIABLE STAKEHOLDER INTERESTS As a high-engagement and transparent consultancy, there are times that the various stakeholder groups may have competing interests. FITCH has extensive experience navigating the political and stakeholder environments to find implementable solutions. We spend considerable effort attempting to ensure and/or create commonality of purpose within these consultancies. Finally, as discussed previously, the advantage of utilizing an objective data-driven process serves to establish a common understanding and discussion around the “facts” first and education and transparent discussions may serve to limit the variability of interests. There is not a specific area of concern, but rather a typical observation for project planning and timelines. As a data-driven process, the timeline doesn’t materially begin until the FITCH team receives usable data that was requested at contract execution. In other words, any delays that may arise are typically due to the delay in receiving the necessary raw data to begin. 2026 Shared Services Study 9 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 36 SCOPE OF WORK AND METHODOLOGY Scope Item #1. Project Initiation & Data Collection Our team will begin with a structured project initiation phase designed to establish clear expectations, communication pathways, and accountability among all three Cities and their Fire Departments. We will convene a joint kickoff meeting with representatives from Albertville, Hanover, and St. Michael, including Fire Chiefs, City Administrators, Finance staff, and other key stakeholders as identified by the Cities. This session will confirm project objectives, refine success measures, validate the proposed work plan and schedule, and clarify roles and decision-making protocols for the duration of the study. Following the kickoff, we will prepare a detailed project work plan and communication framework that identifies milestones, deliverables, primary contacts, preferred communication methods, and meeting cadence. The work plan will be updated as needed throughout the project to reflect emerging issues, policy direction, or additional questions from elected officials and staff. We will maintain ongoing communication via email, virtual meetings, and periodic in-person sessions to ensure the Cities remain fully informed and engaged at each step. Data collection will utilize a structured request list tailored to the three Departments, including but not limited to: incident-level response data (at least five years where available), staffing rosters and schedules, organizational charts, budget and financial data, capital plans, GIS layers, land use and zoning data, comprehensive plans, mutual/automatic aid agreements, and fire prevention/inspection records. We will work with designated liaisons in each City to coordinate secure transfer of data and to minimize staff workload, using existing reports where possible. Our team will conduct site visits to all fire stations, administrative offices, and relevant facilities to assess condition, functionality, location, and operational workflows. During these visits, we will observe apparatus deployment, training spaces, storage, response routes, and constraints related to growth or redevelopment. We will also conduct structured stakeholder interviews and/or focus groups, including line firefighters, officers, labor representatives (if applicable), city management, elected officials, dispatch/communications personnel, and neighboring agencies as appropriate. These qualitative inputs will complement the quantitative analysis and ensure the feasibility study reflects both operational realities and community expectations. Scope Item #2. Baseline Community and Fire Department Evaluations We will prepare individual baseline evaluations for each community and each Fire Department to clearly describe “where we are today” before examining shared service options. For each City (Albertville, Hanover, and St. Michael), we will summarize population, demographics, land area, and growth trends, using available census data, local development information, and comprehensive plans. This will include a concise narrative of each community’s growth history, development patterns (residential, commercial, industrial), and projected build-out or expansion areas that influence fire and EMS demand. 2026 Shared Services Study 10 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 37 For each Fire Department, we will evaluate governance and organizational structure, including reporting relationships, administrative support, and the role of elected officials in policy and budgeting. We will document current staffing models (career, paid-on-call, combination), duty schedules, minimum staffing practices, recruitment and retention patterns, and the operational implications of current staffing arrangements. The analysis will specifically recognize that all three Departments are currently non-union, with a mix of combination and paid-on-call configurations, and differing relief/retirement structures. We will describe current fire code adoption, enforcement practices, and fire inspection programs in each City, including how fire prevention, public education, plan review, and occupancy inspections are organized and staffed. Facilities, apparatus, and capital assets will be inventoried and assessed for condition, capacity, and ability to support current and projected service demands. This will include a Facility Space Needs Analysis of existing fire stations, evaluating operational functionality, apparatus bay capacity, support spaces, training areas, and potential for future expansion or consolidation. We will review EMS delivery roles, fire suppression capabilities, technical rescue and specialty response, training programs, and communications/dispatch arrangements. City and Department budget structures will be analyzed, including funding sources, cost centers, major cost drivers, and any existing cost-sharing or contract arrangements (e.g., coverage to portions of Otsego, Corcoran, Greenfield, Rockford Township). Mutual aid and interagency response resources will be described to provide context on regional capacity and existing cooperative relationships. Scope Item #3. Community Risk & Service Demand Analysis Building on the baseline profiles, we will conduct a community risk and service demand analysis using nationally recognized Community Risk Assessment and Standards of Cover methodologies. We will review calls for service from a historical, current, and projected perspective, using incident- level data to identify trends in volume, incident types, demand by geography, and time of day/week/ year. This will include an assessment of both emergency and non-emergency responses, such as public assists, alarms, and special services, to capture the full workload profile for each Department. We will integrate land use, zoning, demographic data, and growth projections to identify current and emerging risk areas, including high-density residential, commercial corridors, industrial zones, critical infrastructure, and transportation routes. GIS will be used to map incident locations, land-use categories, and development patterns to visualize risk concentrations and service demands across the combined geography of the three Cities. Within this framework, we will identify predictable and high-risk occupancies—such as assembly occupancies, schools, healthcare and long-term care facilities, large commercial/industrial sites, and special hazards—that drive specialized response requirements. We will assess response challenges associated with topography, transportation networks, border areas, and contract coverage territories. Using these inputs, we will develop a risk-based matrix that explicitly links risk categories to staffing levels, apparatus configurations, deployment strategies, and time and performance objectives. The 2026 Shared Services Study 11 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 38 matrix will support evaluation of current and potential future station locations, station response boundaries, and personnel assignments to stations under both existing and shared service models. This risk-based framework will serve as the foundation for evaluating service level options, including variations by zone in any potential shared service or consolidated system. The risk assessment process and variables considered will be anchored on the literature, CFAI, NFPA, and other best practices. Scope Project #4. System Performance & Deployment Analysis We will perform a detailed system performance analysis focusing on response times, deployment, and system reliability across the three Departments. Using incident data and available CAD time stamps, we will measure call processing, turnout, travel, and total response times, comparing performance to locally adopted goals, CFAI, NFPA, and best practice guidelines where appropriate, and risk-based objectives developed in the prior task. We will evaluate current response models for each Department by dispatch type, including the number and type of units dispatched, staffing per unit, and any tiered response or modified response protocols. Based on industry best practices, we will identify opportunities to streamline response models to reduce unnecessary call volume and unit utilization—such as low-acuity EMS response alternatives or refined alarm assignments—while maintaining or improving patient outcomes and public safety. Distribution, concentration, reliability, and capacity studies will be conducted using GIS and statistical analysis. Distribution analysis will focus on the spatial placement of stations and apparatus relative to incident locations; concentration will assess the ability to assemble effective response forces within time objectives for higher-risk incidents; reliability will examine unit availability and simultaneous incident impacts; and capacity analysis will identify peak demand periods and system stress points. We will assess the effectiveness of mutual aid and automatic aid arrangements, including frequency of use, travel times, and contributions to overall system resiliency. The analysis will highlight service gaps (areas or time periods with extended response times or insufficient effective response force) and redundancies (overlapping coverage or duplicative resources) both within and across the three Cities. These findings will directly inform the design and evaluation of shared service and consolidation options. Scope Item #5. Shared Services & Consolidation Options Using the baseline, risk, and performance findings, we will develop and analyze a continuum of shared services and consolidation options tailored to the needs of Albertville, Hanover, and St. Michael. At a minimum, these will include: (1) status quo with enhanced coordination, (2) functional/ shared services in targeted areas such as administration, training, prevention, and EMS, (3) deeper operational consolidation of resources and deployment, and (4) legal unification through a joint powers entity or fire district formation consistent with Minnesota statutes. 2026 Shared Services Study 12 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 39 For each option, we will outline governance structures, including composition and authority of any joint board, reporting relationships to City Councils, and recommended decision-making processes. Staffing needs and options will be described, including configurations for shared personnel, duty schedules, command staff, and support roles, as well as potential labor considerations should the workforce structure evolve in the future. We will evaluate options for fire code and fire inspection administration under shared or consolidated models, including potential centralized prevention staff, inspection schedules, and consistency in code adoption and enforcement across jurisdictions. The process, legal requirements, and practical considerations for combining or dissolving the three Relief Associations (including differing current structures such as PERA SVF and local Relief Associations) will be described in coordination with legal and pension subject-matter expertise. Asset and liability allocation concepts will be developed for facilities, land, apparatus, equipment, and existing financial obligations under each consolidation scenario. Service level changes by zone will be clearly described, showing where service could improve, remain stable, or require specific mitigation under each option. For every scenario, we will present advantages, disadvantages, and implementation risks, along with the implications for existing contracts for fire services to neighboring jurisdictions and the capacity to continue or modify those contracts. Phasing strategies will be outlined so that the Cities may consider incremental progression from lower-intensity collaboration to deeper consolidation over time. Scope Item #6. Financial Analysis & Cost Allocation We will prepare multi-scenario financial models to evaluate the fiscal implications of each shared services and consolidation option over at least a five-year horizon. For each scenario, we will develop revenue and expenditure projections that reflect anticipated staffing, operating, and capital costs, as well as transition expenses and potential efficiencies. Funding mechanisms and tax impacts will be evaluated under both continued municipal structures and any proposed joint powers or fire district arrangements, consistent with Minnesota requirements for tax levy authority and cost sharing. This will include illustrative tax rate implications and potential offsets to current city tax rates where fire services are shifted to a shared entity. We will identify and describe candidate budgeting and cost allocation methodologies, such as formulas based on population, assessed value, incident volume or service demand, call time, or hybrid models combining multiple factors. For each method, we will highlight its strengths, limitations, and practical implications for perceived equity among the partners. The analysis will identify areas of potential cost savings (e.g., reduced duplication, shared administration or training, coordinated capital planning) as well as one-time and ongoing transition costs (e.g., legal, branding, facility modifications, technology integration). Short-, mid-, and long-range financial impacts on each partner will be clearly summarized, providing decision-makers with a transparent understanding of cost allocation options, funding alternatives, and affordability over time. 2026 Shared Services Study 13 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 40 Scope Item #7. Recommendations & Implementation Planning Drawing on the preceding analyses, we will develop clear and prioritized recommendations organized into short-, mid-, and long-term horizons. Recommendations will be specific, actionable, and aligned with the Cities’ risk profiles, growth trajectories, staffing realities, and financial capacities. For each recommendation, we will identify required policy actions by City Councils, Fire Department leadership, and, if applicable, a future joint powers board or fire district governing body. We will outline practical implementation timelines and sequencing for each preferred option, including prerequisite actions, critical dependencies, and logical phases of implementation. Where appropriate, we will provide decision “off-ramps” or checkpoints so the Cities can pause, reassess, or adjust the depth of collaboration based on experience and fiscal conditions. The study will explicitly identify risks, benefits, and tradeoffs associated with each recommended option, including impacts on service levels, staffing, community perception, and long-term financial sustainability. We will incorporate response modeling related to best practices for deployment and call type across the shared service area, illustrating how resource configurations affect response performance and risk coverage. Finally, we will describe an implementation process for potential future growth of shared services, including options to extend shared service or district participation to neighboring municipalities and to structure contract coverage arrangements in a way that is equitable and scalable. This forward-looking component will help ensure that any shared services model adopted today can adapt to regional growth and future partnerships. Scope Item #8. Reporting & Presentations At the conclusion of our analyses, we will prepare a comprehensive draft summary report that includes an executive summary, methodology overview, baseline findings, risk and performance analysis, shared service and consolidation options, financial modeling results, and recommendations with implementation plans. The report will be written in clear, non-technical language suitable for elected officials and the public, while still providing the analytical depth needed for professional review. Supplemental technical reports will be provided for reference: •Comprehensive Quantitative Data Report •Comprehensive GIS Analyses •Community Risk Assessment We will submit the draft report for review by City and Department staff, incorporating feedback, corrections, and clarifications into a final report suitable for public release and long-term reference. The final document will include narrative, figures, maps, and tables that clearly convey key findings and options. 2026 Shared Services Study 14 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 41 Our team will provide formal presentations of the study results to the three City Councils, joint work sessions, and other stakeholder groups as requested. Presentations will be tailored to the audience —policy-focused for elected officials, operational and technical detail for Fire Department staff, and accessible explanations for community or partner agency meetings. We will also remain available to respond to follow-up questions and to support staff in communicating key messages about the study and its recommendations. It is assumed that council presentations and other meetings can be coordinated within the same week. Additional reasonable and customary travel and expenses may be required if multiple timeframes are required for the public reporting. How the Firm is Organized to Provide the Required Services The firm is organized to achieve the required services as outlined in the preliminary scope of services. At a high-level the firm has a deep bench of personnel that can assist in a myriad of areas of expertise as projects may run into very specific details. For example, we have Certified Public Accountants (CPAs), city managers, county managers, combination and/or volunteer fire experience, metro-sized agency representatives, independent and dependent fire district representatives, leadership/coaching, just culture concepts, and ground and air ambulance experience. In addition, we provide management services for agencies across the country and have the unique ability to apply real world solutions that we know will work because we are using the same analytics and decision matrices. In other words, our recommendations are not theoretical, as we practice what we preach! For this scope of work, the proposed team is organized by areas of expertise. 2026 Shared Services Study 15 Fitch & Associates, LLC Steven Knight, PhD Project Manager David Johnsen, MBA CRA/SOC Team Lead Dave Dauer CRA/SOC Dan Gorton, MS CRA/SOC Teresa Johnson, PhD Quantitative Oversight Brian McGrath GIS Analyst Agenda Page 42 Team Qualifications, Expertise, and Experience Qualifications of the FITCH Team FITCH’s specific strengths for this project are centered in the ability to objectively conduct research, manage multiple project priorities and blend both expert and local resources while building support for the outcome(s).

The Firm, and our only office location, is located in Platte City, Missouri, a suburb of Kansas City. Our physical mailing address is: Fitch & Associates, LLC 2901 Williamsburg Terrace, Suite G PO Box 170 Platte City, Missouri 64079 Telephone: (816) 431-2600 Facsimile: (816) 431-2653 Fitch & Associates Federal Employer Identification Number (EIN) is 43-1780744. Throughout its 40-year history, FITCH has earned credibility by implementing innovative customized solutions in both the public safety and healthcare arenas. The Firm has consulted with nearly 1,500 communities in all 50 U.S. states and in 12 countries. Projects have ranged from objective reviews, analysis and system design issues, communications system design, productivity, and enhancement studies to detailed operational, financial, and transition management services including standards of covers, strategic planning, and consolidation studies. In addition to its four partners, FITCH has full-time Senior Associates, research and support staff members. The firm currently employs approximately 44 personnel. However, all partners and consultants live in their locations of preference and/or employment (i.e., Fire Chief) and are not required to work at the firm’s office or live in the Kansas City area. These combined resources provide expertise on matters as diverse as organizational psychology, accounting, economics, healthcare administration, public information and education, marketing research, emergency medicine, fire service administration, law enforcement, safety management and “Just Culture” concepts. The firm has not defaulted in the performance of any agreements or projects during the last five years. Similarly, FITCH has not been involved in any litigations nor has it filed for bankruptcy in its 40-year history. 2026 Shared Services Study 25 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 52 Figure 1: Fitch Client Locations Finally, with respect to environmental conservation and sustainable living, FITCH utilizes electric vehicles in all travel when possible and has reduced the utilization of paper in delivering executive summary style reports and digital products. In addition, when appropriate, and in agreement with our clients, our team utilizes virtual meeting spaces to cut down on carbon demands of air-travel. In addition to the intuitive strengths derived from leadership in the emergency services field and more than 40 years of consulting, FITCH also offers specific expertise gained from multiple projects that required similar expertise to the one proposed. FITCH has evaluated numerous communities’ needs and provided leadership in a variety of projects that involved collaboration by many different agencies to find implementable solutions. We have an ability to keep focused on the final result while keeping the planning process moving. One of the greatest values that our firm provides is developing implementable solutions. This is accomplished through sufficient client and stakeholder engagement to create a robust understanding of the political, fiscal, and operational environments that exist within the unique environments of our clients. Therefore, we are able to partner with our clients in developing options that pass the common sense test and have sufficient commonality of understanding and purpose to be fully implemented with the utmost transparency. FITCH’s experience is demonstrated by detailed descriptions of several projects. 2026 Shared Services Study 26 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 53 EL DORADO COUNTY FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT, CA In 2023, Fitch & Associates partnered with the El Dorado County Fire Protection District partnering with Diamond Springs-El Dorado Fire Protection District to conduct an annexation/consolidation and feasibility study for the agencies. The reorganization and joint annexation sought to combine the two fire districts into one larger one. The new organization would combine staff, facilities, governing bodies, and spheres of influence (SOI) of each district into one. The reorganization would annex the service area and SOI of Diamond Springs-El Dorado Fire Protection District into El Dorado County Fire Protection District. At the same time, the annexation would dissolve the Diamond Springs-El Dorado Fire Protection District. This report addressed topics related to the joint annexation and is written to support the evaluation and decision making for staff and board’s of directors for both agencies. The report is designed to guide the agencies in the annexation application process with El Dorado County Local Area Formation Commission (LAFCO). Government codes, specifically sections 56425, 56430, and 56653 addressing spheres of influence, financial ability to provide sustainable services, shared or future facilities, and the plan for providing services were completed. To date, the agencies are continuing with the annexation processes. This project demonstrates the understanding of shared-services and consolidation efforts. ENCINITAS, SOLANO BEACH, AND DEL MAR, CA In 2022, FITCH completed a Standards of Cover for the three combined agencies of Encinitas, Solano Beach, and Del Mar. This evaluation included a high-level administrative capacity study. Subsequently, we completed focused studies such as round-about studies, specific peak-unit placement studies, and wildland evacuation modeling. More recently in 2024, we completed a cooperative management audit to evaluate the efficiency and effectiveness of the shared administrative agreement between the three agencies. The agencies were provided with three primary alternatives supported by seven key recommendations. The strategic options were to continue with the agreement, but with comprehensive modifications to the contract, scope of services, and cost-sharing formulae. Second, was to expand the agreement to incorporate all fire protection and prevention services into one organization led by the current fire management team (Encinitas). Finally, was the option to cancel the agreement and its $719,685 2026 Shared Services Study 27 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 54 annual revenue (FY23/24) and return the Encinitas Fire Management staff to only serving the City of Encinitas. Del Mar and Solano Beach would establish and fund their fire management teams, operations, and support staff. This project demonstrates the ability to complete assessments and objectively provide recommendations in an environment of competing stakeholder interests and within joint agreements. CITY OF FORT WORTH, TX In 2024, FITCH was hired to evaluate the provision of Emergency Medical Services (EMS) within the greater Fort Worth metro-area. For approximately 30 years, EMS services were provided by a local authority created by a joint-agreement between the City of Fort Worth and 13 other municipalities within the metroplex. Ultimately, the assessment found opportunities for improvement and FITCH evaluated the feasibility, costs, and legal implications of the City of Fort Worth assuming all responsibilities for EMS. This process was completed with the dissolution of the MedStar EMS system and all 13 agencies entering into inter-local agreements with the City of Fort Worth for EMS services through a collaborative cost sharing methodology. The new Fort Worth EMS system will transition fully on July 1, 2025. This project demonstrates the political acumen to navigate a multi-stakeholder and highly-politicized environment to garner implementable solutions in real time. CITY OF VANCOUVER, WA The City of Vancouver, WA, engaged with our firm to conduct an EMS Assessment of their system. Historically, the EMS was provided by a private contractor that was competitively bid but held by Clark County. The unincorporated areas outside of the City of Vancouver are more suburban and rural. The City of Vancouver had questions regarding the service expectations and performance since the overwhelming majority of incidents were within the municipal boundaries. After FITCH’s analyses and facilitation, the County agreed to transfer the contract to the City of Vancouver so that the City could have greater oversight and control over the desired service levels. The City and County continue to work collaboratively to ensure that the unincorporated county citizens continue to receive quality services as well. 2026 Shared Services Study 28 Fitch & Associates, LLC Agenda Page 55 The City of Vancouver has hired our firm to complete a Standards of Cover and two additional projects to evaluate the EMS contract compliance. This project demonstrates the political acumen to use an objective data-driven approach to navigate multiple government stakeholders and find implementable solutions that has proven politically and fiscally sustainable.

ALBERT’S CHURCH SITE PLAN REVIEW RECOMMENDATION: It is respectfully requested that the Mayor and Council consider Site Plan Review for St. Albert’s Church, at 11400 57th Street Northeast. MOTION TO: Adopt Resolution No. 2026-13 approving the site plan for St. Albert’s Church with conditions. BACKGROUND: The Planning Commission reviewed the site plan at their April 14, 2026, meeting. The Planning Commission discussed the parking lot alternatives, the building materials and elevations, and the landscaping. The applicant clarified that the alternatives detailed in the plans regarding parking and loading would both be implemented if possible. The Planning Commission supported Option 1 for the expansion if the parking lot but would be in favor of Option 2 in addition to Option 1. The applicant stated there was difficulty in acquiring shrubs that meet the standards established in the City Code. The Planning Commission recognized the issue and recommended amending the standards in the code and including a condition that the shrubs on the property meet the City Code, as it may be amended. The Planning Commission recommends approval of the applications citing consistency with the City’s Comprehensive Plan, zoning codes, and economic development goals, with the amendment previously noted. The outstanding issues within the application and site plan are addressed with the conditions. KEY ISSUES: •Proposal will construct an approximately 2,800 sq. ft. addition to the existing structure. •Site improvements including a sidewalk along the eastern side of the site, stormwater and drainage improvements, removing two access along 57th Street NE, additional landscaping, and additional parking stalls. •The applicant proposes 120 parking stalls (Option 1), where the code requires 113. The applicant has also proposed a possible alteration to the eastern side of the building (Option 2) which would result in a net loss of two stalls. Parking would meet the requirements of the code provided Option 1 is completed. •The applicant detailed concerns regarding the size measures used for shrubs in the City Code. Staff had previously flagged this as a future code change. The Planning Commission recommends the applicant to comply with a future code change. •The City Engineer has provided a letter with comments dated April 28, 2026.

Agenda Page 70 Planning Commission Request for Recommendation April 14, 2026 ACTION REQUESTED The Planning Commission is asked to make a recommendation to the City Council on the proposed Site Plan for St. Albert’s Church at 11400 57th Street NE (PID 101500012127). BACKGROUND Peter Lacey, ATSR, has made a Site Plan Review application on behalf of St. Albert’s Church for an addition and parking lot expansion to the existing church at the property owned by the Church of St. Albert’s located at 11400 57th Street NE. The Planning Commission is responsible for reviewing and making a recommendation to City Council on the Site Plan Review. The property is located along 57th Street Northeast between Lander Avenue Northeast to the east and the Albertville Fire Station to the west. The lot for the church is 110,460 square feet or 2.536 acres. A church is considered a “religious institution” for the purposes of the zoning ordinance and is a permitted use in the P/I district. REVIEW Site Plan Review Proposed Conditions The project is an expansion to the existing church on site. The existing drop-off drive aisle facing 57th Street will be removed to accommodate the expansion, and an alternative plan proposes a new drop-off point to the eastern parking lot. The site has five accesses off public roads to the south and east, and one private access to the Albertville Fire Station on the western property line. A sidewalk is proposed along the eastern side of the site, connecting with the existing sidewalk at the southwest corner of the site and creating potential future access to the north. TO: Chair Buhrmann and Members of the Planning Commission FROM: Madison Richard, AICP, Consultant Planner Jenni Faulkner, Consultant Planner AGENDA ITEM: Site Plan Review for St. Albert’s Church at 11400 57th Street NE (PID 101500012127) Agenda Page 71 Planning Commission Request for Recommendation – April 14, 2026 Planning – St. Albert’s Church Site Plan Review Page 2 of 5 Dimensional Standards Standard Requirement Proposed Meets Req. Maximum Height 35 ft. ~26 ft. Meets Lot width 100 ft. 263 ft. Meets Lot area 1 acre 2.5 acres Meets Front yard setback 35 ft. 101.4 ft. Meets Side yard setback 20 ft. 89.2 ft. Meets Side yard (major street) setback 35 ft. 35.51 ft. Meets Rear yard setback 25 ft. 129.3 ft. Meets Parking lot setback from street 15 ft. 15 ft. Meets Structure coverage maximum 40% 12.63% Meets The front of a lot shall be the boundary abutting a public right of way having the least width. This lot is considered a corner lot, with the front of the lot as Lander Avenue Northeast. The City Code determines the eastern lot line to be the front lot line, the north and south lot lines to be the side lot lines, and the west lot line to be the rear lot line. As 57th Street Northeast is a major street, the side yard setback along the southern lot line shall be 35 feet (same as the front yard). Drainage System The applicant has submitted a grading and drainage plan. Stormwater management is proposed throughout the existing parking lots to the east and west of the proposed addition, and south of the addition will be directed towards 57th Street NE. Grading and drainage plans have been provided for City Engineer review. A condition requiring approval by City Engineer is included. Erosion and Sediment Control The applicant has submitted the existing erosion and sediment control plan, which has been provided for City Engineer review. The applicant shall submit an updated erosion and sediment control plan, by request of the City Engineer, if necessary. A condition requiring approval by City Engineer is included. Access and Circulation The site has three public access points along the eastern property line from Lander Avenue NE and two public access point along the southern property line from 57th Street NE. The drop over road along 57th Street NE is proposed to be removed, leaving only one access point along 57th Street NE to the existing parking lot. Additionally, shared private access is proposed for the site through an internal private street that connects the western parking lot to the Albertville Fire Station. The applicant is proposing to add a sidewalk along the eastern property line, connecting to the sidewalk on the southeast corner of the site, improving pedestrian circulation throughout the site. The applicant has not provided circulation plans indicating how emergency vehicles can accommodate maneuvering on-site, which shall be submitted by request of the City Engineer, if necessary. Agenda Page 72 Planning Commission Request for Recommendation – April 14, 2026 Planning – St. Albert’s Church Site Plan Review Page 3 of 5 Landscaping The proposed landscaping generally meets the requirements of the Zoning Ordinance. Open areas are proposed to be planted with seed or sod. Per City Code, a minimum of sixteen (16) ornamental trees or shrubs are required per street side, meaning this site requires a minimum of 32 ornamental trees or shrubs on site. The existing site has 22 trees over the property and 10 shrubs along the southern building elevation and is proposing to remove 4 trees for the expansion to the eastern parking lot and the entirety of the shrubs. The applicant will be protecting the two existing trees south of the building and is proposing to plant a landscaped edge with shrubs along the southern building addition. In total, the applicant is proposing 38 shrubs to be planted on site. Shrubs sizes are provided based on the container size where the code requires shrubs to be between 18 to 24 or 24 to 30 inches depending on the type. A condition of approval has been added for all shrubs to meet these requirements. In total, the site will have 18 trees and 38 shrubs on the property, which meets the minimum number of planting requirements. Lighting Lighting requirements of the Zoning Ordinance are generally met. The applicant has not submitted lighting or photometric plans for lights on the proposed addition. A condition is included that a lighting plan shall be submitted along with the building permit that meets the standards of the ordinance. Parking, Loading, Stacking, and Snow Storage The site currently has 111 parking stalls, 42 spaces in the western parking lot and 69 in the eastern parking lot, where the City Code requires 113 stalls (1 space for each 4 seats of the main assembly hall). Per the Church’s website, the church “can seat 450 people in the nave and about 100 in the narthex”. The parking requirement is based on seats within the main assembly hall, so an increase in the size of the narthex does not increase the required number of parking spaces on site. Additionally, there are approximately 14 on-street parking spaces located along 57th Street NE and Lander Avenue NE. The applicant is proposing three additional parking spaces in the western parking lot where the previous drop-off drive aisle was located and has proposed two alternative parking arrangements for the eastern parking lot, as outlined below: Option 1 – Eastern Parking Lot Expansion to the North The applicant is proposing to expand the eastern parking lot to the north, with an additional 6 spaces, totaling 75 spaces in the eastern lot. Combined with the 45 stalls in the western lot, this option would total 120 spaces on the site. The existing parking lot meets all setback standards for parking. However, this option has a section proposed in the most northeastern corner that appears to be outside of the property lines. Staff have added a condition that the applicant revise the expansion to remain inside all property lines. Agenda Page 73 Planning Commission Request for Recommendation – April 14, 2026 Planning – St. Albert’s Church Site Plan Review Page 4 of 5 Option 2 – Building Canopy & Drop-Off The applicant is proposing to re-configure the eastern parking lot with an added building canopy and drop-off lane to the east of the proposed addition. This configuration would remove 2 spaces in the eastern lot. Combined with the 45 stalls in the western lot, this option would total 109 spaces on the site. If the applicant pursues this option, the additional 4 stalls needed to meet the required number of spaces would be supplemented with off- street parking. Building Materials Buildings in all zoning districts shall maintain a high standard of architectural and aesthetic compatibility with surrounding properties. Exterior building finishes shall consist of materials comparable in grade and quality to the following brick, natural stone, cast in place concrete or precast concrete panels, wood, curtain wall panels of steel, fiberglass and aluminum, vinyl, etc., as well as other materials determined to be acceptable by the city council. The existing building appears to be composed of almost entirely stone with some windows and stuccos interspersed. The proposed structure has a total of 50.2% of the addition finished with metal panel and 36.6% finished with pre-cast concrete and pre-cast stone veneer. Glass is proposed to cover 13.2% of the proposed addition. The proposed addition includes an optional new drop-off turn-around comprised of wood and minor pre-cast concrete and stone accents. The proposed addition is distinctly different than the existing church, as they do not feature the same primary architectural materials; however, the stone veneer is consistent as material on both, and the addition will extend a flat roof from the existing entrance as well as re-face the entrance with metal panels. The Planning Commission should discuss whether the architecture and aesthetic of the addition and existing structure are compatible. Signs The P/I zoning district allows one freestanding sign per site, and two signs per building walls fronting on a public street right of way. There is currently a freestanding sign on the site, located within the landscaped area inside the drop of loop. The proposed plans for the addition do not include any signage on the site. If the freestanding signage is removed and new signage is proposed, the sign will require a building permit and shall comply with all signage requirements for the P/I zoning district. Compliance with Comprehensive Plan The proposed use must comply with the Albertville Comprehensive Plan. The property is shown Agenda Page 74 Planning Commission Request for Recommendation – April 14, 2026 Planning – St. Albert’s Church Site Plan Review Page 5 of 5 on the Proposed Land Use Plan as half Parks/Open Space and half Public/Semi-Public. Public Facilities Goal 1 in the Albertville Vision/Comprehensive Plan is to ensure public facilities are designed and constructed to address the City’s long range needs, facilitate development, and contribute to the quality of life in Albertville. MOTION TO: Recommend approval of the site plan for St. Albert’s Church with the following conditions of approval: 1. The location and layout of structures and facilities on the lot shall be substantially consistent with the plans submitted to the city and reviewed with this request with the exception of where revisions are required with this approval. 2. Before a building permit may be issued the following is required: a. A site circulation showing emergency vehicle access shall be submitted. b. Landscaping plans shall be revised to show deciduous and evergreen shrubs between 24 - 30 inches and spreading evergreens shrubs between 18 - 24 inches at potted/bare root planting. c. The site plans shall be updated to show all increases to impervious surfaces are kept within the property lines. d. The grading, drainage, and final site plans shall be subject to the review and approval of the City Engineer. e. The utility plan shall be subject to the review and approval of the City Engineer. f. The erosion and sediment control plan shall be subject to the review and approval of the City Engineer. 3. No lighting is approved with this request and any future lighting on the site shall be consistent with the standards within the current ordinances. 4. No signs are approved with this request and any future signage on the site shall be consistent with the standards within the current ordinances. 5. The applicant shall secure any and all applicable and necessary permits required from local, state, and federal entities prior to work on the site. 6. The applicant shall pay all fees and escrow costs related to the application. Attachments: A. Location Map B. St. Albert’s Church Application C. St. Albert’s Church Application Materials D.
