Since the printing business will occupy space in the new building, both requests will be oonsidered simultaneously. Mr. Jagodzinski is proposing to complete the construction of the frame of a building ar[5 tD oonnect it b~ an existing house which will be remDdeled. The connection will consist of a second floor bridge which will contain leasable space. Upon completion, the structure will contain 4,000 square feet of leasable space which will acco~'~'odate the printing business ar~ uses such as professional offices ar~ possibly a limited amDunt of retail sales. Access to the new building will be from one driveway off Q~erce Bouleva~. The 'driveway mear~ers intD the site ard passes under the bridge connection terminating in a 10-car parking lot in the rear of the structure. T~D parking spaces are located in the front of the building providing a total of 12 spaces. The site plan ir~icates that the drive and the two f/~nt parking stalls will be bituminous surfaced with the paving extending up to the front of the building. The rear portion of the driveway an~ the parking lot area will be surfaced with compacted ..gravel. The total lot area consists of approximately 15,000 square feet, all of which lies within the B-1 z~ne. Planning Oonvaission and Staff Page September 5, 1984 ~: Printing facilities are listed as conditional uses in the B-1 ~ne. J. J. Printing, which will occupy the new building, presently is located in the CBD. They propose to occupy space in the existing house and will relocate within the new 'tDrtion of the structure upon completion. In conducting a site plan review for the Jagodzinski building, the following items have been considered: ZONING REQUIREMENTS: The proposal exceeds the minimum lot area requirements prescribed in the monin9 ordinance amd since it does no-t abut a residential zone, no setbacks are required. The proposed structure does ~x)t exceed the 45-fDot maximum height identified in the ordinance. PARKING: The zoning ordinance identifies parking requirements in ac~rdance with proposed uses. Since the tenant mix of the proposed buildin9 is unknown at this time, some speculation will be required. If the building ~ontains 100 percent office uses, one space per 400 square feet is required %otaling 10 parking stalls. If the building were to contain all retail uses, one space per 150 square feet will be required totaling 27 parking spaces. In reviewing parking requirements, the building' s location within the cen~ business district should be considered. Parking lots amd on-street parking may diminish the need fDr on-site, off-street parking. In cases where the parking requirements of specific uses are not clearly identified in the zoning ordinance, the Planning O0mmission and City Oouncil are requires ~o determine the appropriate number of spaces. The applicant's site plan depicts a parking scheme which maximizes use of the property while preserving a significant amount of green area. It may be possible to add t~D parking stalls to the rear lot, however, such construction would require the installation of a 4 to 6-foot retaining wall. Prior to making a final decision on parking, the Plannin90ommission may want to have the applicant further address anticipated uses during their presentation on Monday night. LANDSCAPING: The landscaping plan calls for the preservation of three large trees in the front of the property and the installation of additional plant material. The trees, ornamental trees, shrubs and foundation plantings specified in the plans should enhance the architectural style of the building. Planning CD~ission ard Staff Page Tl ee September 5, 1984 RECOMMENDATIONS: Staff recommends approval of the corditional use permit fDr J. J. Printirg ard approval of the site plan for the JaGodzinski building subject t~ the fDllowing: The parking stalls ard driveway in front of the building shall be bituminous surfacsd with the rear p~rtion consisting of compacted gravel. The rear parking lot shall be maintained in a dust free c~r~ition. A total of 9 square feet of signage fDr the building will be permitted without a signage variance. Proposed signage exceedinG 9 square feet will require additional review by the Planning Cbu~uission and the City Council. Grading, drainage and utility plans should be subject to the reconmen~ations of the City.~ Engineer. 0 The proposed plans shall be submitted to the Watershed District for review ard appropriate permits. 5.

The issue which prompted the request for guidelines was whether two quotes must be obtained every time the City goes out to purchase something. The answer is no, but an understanding of the entire statute is necessary to deal with all of the issues which arise under the bid statute. The statute in question is the Uniform Municipal Contracting Law, Minn. Stat. Sec. 471.345. Under the contracting statute, contracts must be divided into two categories, those over $15,000, and those under $15,000. For contracts over $15,000, sealed bids are required, and the competitive bidding procedure, with the required publications, must be followed. One exception is contracts for local improvements made under Minn. Stat. Chapter 429,, which must be let to the lowest responsible bidder when the estimated cost of the improvment exceeds $5,000. If the contract is in the $10,000 to $15,000 range, the contract may be made upon sealed bids or by direct negotiation, by obtaining two or more quotations. If the contract is"~10,000 or less, the contract may be made upon quotation or in the open market, in the discretion of the governing body. If the contract is made upon quotation, at least two quotes should be obtained where practicable. The term "in the open market" is not subject to a definition which makes sense. I have talked to the Attorney General about this subdivision of the statue and he agrees that it is near impossible to interpret that section. WURST, PEARSON, HAMiLTON, LARSON & UNDERWOOD Whenever quotations are obtained, they must be kept on file for at least one year. Obviously, there is considerable latitude under the statute for contracts $10,000 or under. Where practicable, get two quotes. Practicable means feasible. It's probably not practicable to get two quotes on a $5 hammer. It is however, practicable to get two quotes on a $5,000 hammer. Jon, I've taken the liberty of preparing a policy resolution. I think this can be a starting point for the Council to determine how they want the purchasing process to work. Please review the resolution and if you agree - transmit to the Council for consideration. If you disagree - give me a call and lets discuss. Very trul~ yours, A. ~Pearson, Attorney at Law CAP:rad Enclosure RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING POLICY FOR CITY PURCHASE WHEREAS, the Minnesota State Legislature has changed Minnesota Statutes 471.345 in each of the three last legislative sessions, and' WHEREAS, M.S.A. 471.345, Subd.5. applies to contracts of less than $10,000 and authorizes the City Council to determine how it wants these purchases handled, and WHEREAS, M.S.A. 412.691 establishes the City Manager as the Chief Purchasing Agent of the City but places a limitation of $1,000 on the purchases without City Council approval, and WHEREAS, the City Council wants to protect the public interest by requiring competitive quotations on all purchases over $1,000 unless it is impossible or impracticable to obtain two quotations. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF MOUND: 1. The City Manager is authorized and directed, pursuant to M.S.A. 412.691, to make all purchases up to $1,000 in the open market. He shall use his discretion on the need for quotations or in shopping the purchases. 2. In all purchases between $~,000 and $10,000, he shall so far as practicable acquire at least two written quotations. 3. Ail purchases between $10,000 and $15,000 may be made either upon sealed bids or by obtaining two or more written quotations and all such quotations shall be kept on file for at least one year. The City Council may determine in individual cases that they want to advertise and obtain competitive bids on these purchases and the City Manager is encouraged to discuss those purchases with the City Council before soliciting bids. 4. Ail contracts exceeding $15,000 shall be advertised for at least 10 days and shall be open to competitive bids based upon uniform specifications. A. THoMAs WURST, P.A. CURTIS A. PEARSON, JOSEPH e.

In December, 1978, he received preliminary plat approval just after the Beachwood Road improvement. The preliminary approval expired before he submitted a final plat. He is again requesting a plat approval. Site: The site has been recently graded with most of the vegetation removed. It slopes approximately 15 feet from the rear lot lines to Beachwood street grade. Areas of the property are below street grade. Comments: The City Council on December 19, 1978 recommended a park dedication based on a value of land of $16,100 or $230.00 per lot. The lot areas are not shown on the new plat and differ from the December 19, 1978 preliminary plat. A grading plan with soil tests have not been sub- mitted for approval. Street, curb, gutter and utilities were installed at Beachwood Road under City contract and five (5) sewer and water stub- ins were assessed against the seven (7) proposed lots. The locations of the utility stub-ins do not align with the proposed lot lines for some lots. Recommendation: The Staff recommends that a preliminary subdivision be approved conditioned upon: 1. Escrow fund be established to defray engineer, legal and staff time. 2. Park dedication fee of $230.00 per lot be assessed at the time of issuing building permits for each of the 7 lots or re-establish a new value of land. 3. City Engineer approve the grading, utilities, lot areaS, and erosion control plan for the 7 lots and obtain necessary easements. 4. A public hearing be set by the City Council. 5. City Attorney review and approve the Title of the property. 6. Soil reports be submitted for Lots 23, 24, 25 and 27 (Pro- posed lots 5, 6 and 7) minimum. 7. File for fI'~l subdivision approval within one year'or the preliminary approval will be null and void.

With this letter, you are officially put on not~ce that the sidewalk sections in front of your business must be repaired within thirty days from the date of this letter or the City will hire its own contractor to do the necessary work and assess the costs to the owners of the building.

The mailing list for 1985 is being prepared from this end of the season coudt. There are 15 people who have asked to be put 6n the waiting list for 1985 and another 10 who have~a~k&d. for 1985 applications when we sent them out. We plan to revi'se~ application form for ne×t year. All but 5 people have responded, at this date-, [o the .letter requesting photb copies of watercraft licenses. I have checked all dock sites several, times for any boat violations and sent out 78 notices for the same, Results l~are good,.people are cooperating, One boat and one canoe have been impounded and have not been reclaimed~ Many commons users have volunteerd to trim and clean up various areas this year.' The Park Director has then arraoged to haul debris away, most areas are in good shape. We are ~lanning a late fall check of'all areas to see that the docks are removed where needed and that they are piled neatly out of the way..

Nm-SUITE 100 GOLDEN VALLEY, MINNESOTA 55427 (612} 542-1837 August 28, 1982 Mr. Jori Elam City of Mound 5721 Maywood Road Mound, MN 55362 Dear Jon: I was certainly disappointed to r~ceive your letter concerning the council's decision to terminate our relationship. I want to take this opportunity to re-emphasize Just one aspect of our program which, in my opinion, is in Jeopardy because of this decision, and may result in substantial long term costs. In the Workers' Compensation area one of the long term (3-5 year) programs that was instigated was the payment of first-aid work related claims by the city instead of putting them through the insurance mechanism. When they do not go through the insurance mechanism, they do not become a factor in the experience modifier. The current manual premium is approximately $20,000 for the City of Mound. At the time I was introduced to the city, the experience modifier was 1.17. This means the city paid 17% more than the average city or, approximately $6,800 because of the bad Workers' Compensation losses in the past. As I indicated to the council, the city deserves an experience modifier based upon the risks that are within the city of less than .90. This would mean a 27 point reduction from the earlier level of $26,000 plus, or about $12,500 savings. Under normal circtfmstances, it can be expected to save 20-30% off manual premium (the $20,000) based on a 1.00 experience modifier. As I indicated to the council, there is no doubt in my mind that we can bring the experience modifier to a .75 level, but it will take 3-5 years. Reducing it to .75 from 1.17 will show a cost reduction of almost $17,000 per year. I felt that my fee of $h,800 a year was well Justified under those circumstances. I also feel we have shown steady progress towards that goal. The problem with terminating me is that the insurance company will no longer feel comfortable that someone can make a decision with regard to whether or not an injury is compensable under Minnesota State Law. Where I still hold the adjuster's license for the State of Minnesota, the insurance companies are comfortable with the decisions I make. Should a case we pay under first- aid assumption turn sour, months or years later, the insurance company would be willing to pick that case up and not question the validity of the original decision. Mr. Jon Elam August 28, 198~ Page (2) Without my review, the insurance company will insist all claims be handled through their claim department. This will make it difficult, if not impossible, to reach the .75 experience modifier goal. I can appreciate the short term problem you are currently faced with and wish to reiterate that I will work with you through the November election to make certain the insurance company is satisfied with the handling of these cases as well as the inspections. Hopefully, after the elections, we can once again review the situation in light of both the cities short and long term goals and objectives. I thank you for your considerations and co-operation.

Two important areas"to consider. 1) Gross sales for Augus'~ 1984 were $77,302.22. In August !983 they Were $69,606.22. 'This is an increase of $7,697.00 over August of last year, which is an 11% increase. 2) The customer count for August 1984 was 9,795, where as in Aug- ust,. 1983 the tally was .9,218. We had 577 mom customers, in August, 1984 than we.had in August, 7983. You may ~l~so want to know that in August, 1983 the average customer sale was $7.55. In August, 1984 it was $7.89. We are moving in a positive direction. We are bringing in more people and they are buying in larger quantities. This trend should maintain .' in the near future. As far as long range goals are concerned I perc~.[ve a slight drop in the. pe~ce.ntage Of profits of goods sold. On the other hand the"total profits realized in 1984 should far exceed those received in 1983. Your total profit picture a.t the end of the fiscal year will be larger, regardless if the percentages are down. ~'- ...'

In that letter, Mr. Bruce Wilson reviewed our previous report which had been sent to him and recommended further activities. Those activities, as I interpret them, are listed below. 1) Reconstruct monitor well #1. 2) Resample and analyze all three monitor wells. 3) Determine water elevation at: a) Cooks Bay b) Langdon Lake c) Harrison Bay 4) Conduct a magnetometer survey on the site. 5) Conduct test trenching if high magnetometer readings are obtained. 6) Identify local private and domestic wells. Monitor well ~1 was reconstructed on August 14 and is now'in proper order. The old well #1 was properly abandoned. All three monitor wells were attempted to be sampled on August 17, however our pump failed to operate properly, and that sampling effort had.to be postponed. They are now scheduled to be sampled during the wee~..of September 4. We determined the water elevations of the three bodies of water' requested. During that determination, we re-surveyed the eleva- Environmental Testing and Consulting Services Also serving thru offices in Hibbing. St C oud Rochester, and St. Pau. MN & Bismarck an(~ Wiliiston.

MT E84-040 city of Mound -2- September 4, 1984 tions of the monitoring wells and discovered that the benchmark we had used during our initial installation and elevation survey was incorrect. This was verified by surveying two other bench- marks (fire hydrants east or west of th~ fire hydrant in question). We were given the benchmark elevations by McCombs-Knutson, the engineer for Mound. In an effort to tie in the elevations, we utilized more than one benchmark and disco- vered that the single benchmark originally used closest to the site had an elevation of 935.63 reported, as opposed to 937.63 actual. The corrected water elevations for the specific bodies of water are listed below: Cooks Bay - 929,10 Langdon Lake - 933.03 Harrison Bay - 929.10 The corrected top of pipe elevations and water level elevations are given below. Water Level -Water Level Top of Pipe Elevation Elevation Well Elevation 5-14-84 6-6-84 #1 933.30 929.58 929.32 %2 933.62 929.86 929.47 ~3 936.90 928.82 929.07 The implication of this information is that, based on the corrected elevations, groundwater appears to be flowing towards well #3 in a north-northeasterly direction. We regret any con- fusion that this may have caused. A magnetometer survey was conducted on the site during the week of August 20. A proton magnetometer model GP-81 was utilized. The magnetometer operates on the basis of nuclear magnetic reso- nance and provides an accurate measurement of the total magnetic field intensity. A 25-foot grid pattern was laid out on the site and magnetometer readings were taken at the intersections of the grid. Values were plotted on a maps and contours constructed through areas of similar magnetic intensity. The attached diagram shows the magnetic contours. Each contour represents an interval of 250 gammas. I have also attached a map which shows the areas of high magnetometer readings. The high readings of 59500 gammas are not much higher than the background levels of 58000 gammas. During the conduct of our survey, we encountered a local resident who, upon discovering what we were doing, described the dump during its operation. Apparently there was an entrance off of County Road 15 that came down to the center of the property and uMufl E84-040 City of Mound -3- September 4, 1984 then curved to the east. He indicated that there was a lot of general dumping near the road on the eastern portion of the property. Based on the magnetometer survey, there appears to be three areas on the eastern edge of the property where test trenching could occur. Based on borings conducted near these areas, the trenching should occur to a depth of 10 to 15 feet. Since the magnetometer levels are not very high, it would be appropriate to discuss these results with the MPCA before initiating trenching. It may be that no trenching will be necessary. I understand that the City of Mound has attempted to identify any local private domestic wells and have found that there are no private domestic wells in the vicinity of this property. This summarizes the information to date. The results of the chemical analysis of the groundwater monitoring wall be available in two weeks. This information is submitted in order to report to the MPCA and to make a decision on test trenching. If you should have any questions, please contact me at your convenience.

The proposed Permanent List of Priorities includes all current sites for which the MPCA intends to take action under ERLA. Prior to adoption, the MPCA must solicit public comment on the proposed list for thirty (30) days. The public comment period is being announced in the Sept~nber 3, 1984 State Register. According to MPCA records, you may have an interest in one or more sites proposed for inclusion on the Permanent List of Priorities. Therefore, please find enclosed a copy of the State Register notice on this matter. If you have any comments, please submit them as directed in the enclosed Public Notice. ly, [- ' Site Res Solid and aste Division .GAP/rj Enclosure Phone: 1935 West County Road B2, Roseville, Minnesota 55113-2785 Regional Offices · Duluth/Brainerd/Detroit LakesfMarshall Rochester Equal Opportunity Employer STATE OF MINNESOTA COUNTY OF RAMSEY MINNESOTA POLLUTION CONTROL AGENCY NOTICE OF PERMANENT LIST DF PRIORITIES AMONG RELEASES OR THREATENED RELEASES OF HAZARDOUS SUBSTANCES, POLLUTANTS OR CONTAMINANTS. NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) is publishing for public comment its proposed Permanent List of Priorities among releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants for which the MPCA intends to take removal or remedial action. The statutory basis for and an explanation of the MPCA's proposed Permanent List of Priorities is discussed below. Pursuant to the Environmental Response and Liability Act, Minnesota Laws, 1983, Chapter 115B (ERLA) the MPCA is authorized to take any removal or remedial action which the MPCA deems necessary to protect the public health or welfare or environment whenever there is a release or substantial threat of release from a facility of any pollutant or contaminant which presents an imminent and substantial danger or whenever a hazardous substance is released or there is a threatened release of a hazardous substance from a facilty. ERLA (Section 17, Subd. 13) requires the MPCA to establish prioritization rules and a permanent list of priorities among releases or threatened releases of hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants. The prioritization rules, MPCA Chapter 7044, were effective July 1, 1984. The proposeJ Permanent List of Priorities was developed according to the process set forth in MCAR 7044.0400. Each site listed has been ranked using the modified Hazard Ranking System (HRS) method, as required by MCAR 7044.1000. Each site has also passed the prescreening test of MCAR 7044.1200 for eligibility. The numerical scores generated by the HRS scoring process should not be interpreted as exact number priorities. The scores shown indicate the relative ranking and general classification of sites, but sites with scores within approximately ten points of each other may be considered roughly equivalent in terms of a known or possible public health or environmental threat. The proposed Permanent List of Priorities reflects the "relative risk or danger to public health or welfare or the environment, taking into account to the extent possible the population at risk, the hazardous potential of the hazardous substances at the facilities, the potential for contamination of drinking water supplies, the potential for human contact, the potential for destruction of sensitive ecosystems, the administrative and financial ..capabilities of the agency, and other appropriate factors" (ERLA, Section 17, Subdivision 13). "R~moval" actions are defined in ERLAto include cleanup or removal of released hazardous substances, pollutants or contaminants, actions necessary to monitor, test, analyze and evaluate releases or threatened releases, provision of alternative water supplies, security fencing, temporary evacuation and housing of threatened individuals and emergency assistance. "Remedial" actions, on the other hand, are defined in ERLA to include actions consistent with permanent remedy instead of or in addition to "Removal" actions. Generally, the cleanup of a hazardous waste site involves a three phase program: 1} Remedial Investigation/Feasibility Study - investigation of the extent, magnitude and nature of the release or threatened release, and identification and sel~tion of the most cost effective removal or remedial action(s), and 2) R~nedial Design - detailed design of the selected cost effective removal or remedial action(s), and - 3) Response Action - implementation of removal or remedial action(s}. All proposed PLP sites have been assigned to one or more response action classes as required by MCAR 7044.0300. The proposed PLP is presented by response action class. Each of the four response action classes is defined as follows: CLASS A - Declaredlemergencies. This class includes those sites at which an official emergency has been declared by the MPCA Director pursuant to ERLA. According to MCAR 7044.0200, an "emergency" means that there is an imminent risk of fire or explosion, that a temporary water supply is needed where an advisory has been issued, or that in~nediate adverse human health effects may be anticipated due to direct contact or inhalation, and an advisory has been issued. An "advisory" means a warning by the MPCA Director, Minnesota Deparment of Health, Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, or the Minnesota Department of Agriculture issued to the public concerning a hazardous substance, or pollution or contamination at or near a facility. CLASS B - Long-term monitorin9 and/or operation and maintenance at a site that has undergone 2rev. ious response actions. This class includes those sites where activities are necessary to maintain response action(s) that have previously been completed. Examples include continuing operation of a ground water pump-out system ~t a site, long-term monitoring, and work necessary to maintain the integrity of the site, such as maintaining cover or closure at a site. CLASS C - Other response actions which m~ include the first year costs associated with operation and maintenance at a site. This class includes all sites where remedial ~esign and implementation of response actions (other than Class A or B} such as barrel removals, decontamination, first year ground water pump-out or monitoring, and other activities that..are necessary to effect a permanent remedy or cleanup of the site..This class.also includes the design phase in preparation for a response action, such as designing a ground water pump out system or a barrel removal action. CLASS D - Remedial investigations and feasibility studies (RI/FSi. This class includes all sites which require investigation of the extent, magnitude and nature of the release or threatened release and -3- classification and selection of the most cost effective response action{s). Based upon the above considerations, the proposed Permanent List of PriOrities is offered for public comment. Sources of funds for removal or remedial actions at the sites listed includes federal Superfund (CERCLA), state Superfund (ERLA}, a combination of both federal and state monies, and funding provided by the responsible parties, if any exist. All sites in the four classes are presented in order of the modified HRS Score. Sites that are listed or proposed for listing on the National Priority List (NPL) are so indicated. Cleanup consent orders or_stipulation agreements are noted if such agreements have been executed between the MPCA and the responsible party(les}.

The fee in the metropolitan area may not exceed 25 cents per cubic yard. The Hennepin County Board of Cc~missioners, in Resolution No. 84-8-544 adopted on August 16, 1984, declared its intent to impose a 25-cent-per-cubic-yard fee on the disposal of mixed municipal solid waste at solid waste facilities in Hennepin County, beginning January 1, 1985. The 25 cent-per-cubic-yard county fee is in addition to the mandated state fee of 50 cents per cubic yard, and the possible city fee of 15 cents per cubic yard, both of which were authorized by Chapter 644. The law provides that revenues from this fee shall be used only for "landfill abatement purposes or costs of closure, postclosure care and response actions, or for purposes of mitigating and compensating for the local risks, costs, and other adverse effects of facilities." The appropriate ordinance is being prepared and will be submitted to the Hennepin County Board of Ccmmissioners in the near future. It is anticipated that a public hearing purs,~nt to the adoption of the ordinance will be scheduled in October or early November. The county is providing you this information now so you can give it appropriate consideration in your budgeting and financial plans for 1985.

South Hopkins, Minnesota 55343 935-3381 August 29, 1984 Mr. Jon Elan City Manager City of Mound 5341 Maywood Road Mound, MN 55364 Dear Mr. Elan: After meeting with you and Police Chief Len Harrell on August 15, Wayne Matsumoto and I have been following up on several matters which were discussed. First, the new crosswalk which the city painted on County Highway 110 near the Catholic church, south of the advance "Pedestrian Crossing" signs, has now been signed as such and the advance warning sign for northbound traffic relocated south, in advance of this crosswalk. In addition, if it has not already been done, some of the "No parking" signs and posts on ltl10 on the block in~nediately south of #15 Will soon be removed and the signs placed on street light poles. This should make snow removal easier. If this results in too few signs for enforcement, however, we may need to reinstall some like they are now; let us know how well these changes work. We have reviewed your proposal for the yellow flashing light for southbound #110 near 2020 Commerce Blvd. Either a single or double (alternately flashing) flasher assembly is acceptable, at the city's choice, as long as it uses an 8-inch traffic signal head and lens. Installation and maintenance will be by the city. With respect to its placement, we urge that the flasher be placed in advance of the crosswalk, above the advance "Pedestrian Crossings Ahead" sign two street light poles to the north. This location will allow for driver recognition and action before actually entering this crosswalk, as well as call more attention to the fact that there are more crosswalks further to the south. With respect to the "Pedestrian Safety Zone" signs, after considerable deliberation we have concluded that they should resemble Minneapolis' Accident Reduction Zone signs and should have black lettering on a yellow background, and contain this message: "PEDESTRIAN SAFETY ZONE-RIGHTS ENFORCED". The size of the sign would be 42" x 30" and be HENNEPIN COUNTY an equal opportunity ~'mploy~'r erected a short distance in advance of the first pedestrian crossing warning signs on #110 (in both directions) and on westbound #15. Enclosed is a mock-up of the sign. Please review it and let us know if you find it acceptable. No signs will be made until a design is agreed upon. Please get back to us at your earliest convenience.

I understand that the money that your organization collected must be used for chemical control, and I appreciate the offer of help such as watching for vandals, etc. Despite the absence of money explicitly for the study of Halsteds Bay, I have managed to study the bay in some detail, especially after the June 20th copper sulfate treatment (I haVe deployed a raft on the bay, which you may have seen). I believe that the condition of Halsteds Bay is the most important problem to study in all of Lake Minnetonka. I will have fully analyzed my data sometime this fall, and would welcome an opportunity to meet with members of the Halsteds Bay Association to discuss my findings. I am truly studying Halsteds Bay with an inadequate budget, and am very interested in the potential of raising money from the bay association membership explicitly to support more research on the bay -- I doubt whether my limited study this summer will provide definitive information. If I don't find some financial support, I will be even more strapped for funding next summer. My salary is paid by the Gray Freshwater Biological Institute, but it is difficult to get much work done without money for supplies and an assistant. I have written a proposal for funding to the state of Minnesota to study the effects of copper sulfate, but the odds for funding are low. I proposed to study Halsteds Bay, and, having received your letter, indicated that there is support for such a study from the residents on the bay. Please let me know if I can ever meet with members of the Halsteds Bay Association to discuss the condition of the bay. .¥ncerely, -, Edward B.

May 7, 1984 Mr. Dan Hules 9840 Lyndale Avenue So. Bloomington, MN 55420 Dear Mr. Hules, This is to confirm our recent telephone conversation regarding the pro- posed research to be conducted by the Freshwater Biological Institute in conjunction with the treatment of copper sulfate on Halsted Bay, Lake Minnetonka. We have read and met with the Institute regarding the proposed research. We find that the study is reasonable and could possibly add to our knowledge of plankton algae treatments with copper sulfate in lake. However, we cannot comment on whether the Halsteds Bay Association should pay for the study. That is a decision the officers of the association will have to make. As for our part, the Department of Natural Resources will issue a permit to treat Halsteds Bay whether the research will be done or not. We will also cooperate with the Institute and Association in technical assistance when requested. We would request, however, a copy of the completed report when, and if, the research is completed. If you have any further questions or need assistance, please feel free to contact me. S~-rc-t~r e 1 y yours, ~ " ogist David B.

We are permitted by the DNR for three sprayings this year. We would need approximately.$400.O0 more for another spraying. -SUgARY- Some complaints were received concerning June 20, 1984 spraying, to the effect that the water was not clean. ~e had 20 days of rain previous to the spraying which were constantly washing soil into the bay. This is a major source of muddy water. Our objective is to eliminate algae from forming and rotting during months of June, July, Aug., and Sept. Currently, it is my belief the program is working. "Need your comments." Estimated cost for 1985-86 program would be $2000.00 per sprayin~ for six sprayings. Total cost of $12,000.00 divided by 94 equals $130.00 per family or $65.00 per year for clean water. This amount per family could be lowered if more people contribute. Please see the attached letter and report from UofM Freshwater Biol. graduate student Mr. Ed Swain. This money would have to be collected as a separate collection as there is no guarantee that he will be able to shed some light on the algae problem I personally hope he can. A long term solution is needed. Mr. Swain has made a decision to write his doctorate as a UofM student on the Halsteads Bay problem regardless of whether or not he receives help from the Halsteads Bay Assoc. or the Freshwater Inst. If you would like to help, please make a separate check for that contribution.. Page We currently need $25.00 each family for a third spraying. Money left over will be used for 1985-86 pro~ram. If you can send $130.00 plus $25.00 for a total of $155.00, no more collections would be necessary for approximately 24 months. If you have any questions, please call me at 472-6719 (Hope you don't all call on the smme night) We will need people to help with 1985-86 fund drive in early spring 1985.

The Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Metropolitan Council and Department of Energy & Economic Development (DEED) presented a request for funding to the Legislative Commission on Minnesota Resources (LCMR). This Commission is a joint committee of the house and senate and funds new and innovative projects. The request was to fund Metro Council to acquire Deering Island and study the Big Island issue, DEED to provide grants to local governments for fishing piers, upgrading accesses, etc., and DNR to establish two accesses on the south and west shores at sites to be determined later and one fishing pier on the north side of the lake. Even though LCMR funding requests are far beyond their funding capability, there is a possibility the Minnetonka project could receive some funds. If not, our goal is to explore all other avenues of funding to assure at least some special funding to begin implementation of the task force report. Sincerel._y, /~ / MICHAEL T.

The Board reached its decision after 'a year-long information gathering process which included a demographic study, 11 service provider meetings, 2 community informational meetings and a survey of area providers, munici- pal managers 'and consumers of County programs. The culmination of this effort was a June 19 community public hearing at the Minnetonka City Hall where the findings and proposed prior- ities were presented.' At that time, the public was invited to make oral or written comments on human service program priorities for the West Hennepin area. The majority of comments this year supported the priorities as proposed, especially in relation to child care, respite care, chemitA'l dependency prevention programs, Develop- ~ntal Achievement Centers, Work !hievement Centers, transportation, counseling and development of a suburban mental health treatment center. Commenters requesting alterations in the tentative priorities suggested: a higher priority for community programs for the mentally handicapped; defunding domestic abuse programs; more funding for teen outreach; and funding and funding for client advocates to work with agencies. In drawing up the final priorities, the Board gave special consideration to the survey on human service needs which was conducted in mid-June. The survey indicated high need areas to be employment, child care, family violence pro~rams (particularly for children), abuse' programs for youth, emergency services in-home services for elderly and handicapped individuals, respite care, counseling, crisis intervention, and residential' treatment facilities for mentally ill and mentally handicapped citizens. The final funding priorities for human service programs in the West Hennepin area are: 11. Mental Health Crisis Intervention 2. Emergency Social Services 3. Child Care 4. Counseling 5. Employment, Training & Counseling 6. In-Home Services for Elderly and Disabled 7. Family Violence Programs 8. Chemical Dependency Early Inter- Continued on next Daae Priorities, continued vention and Prevention 9. Child Protection 10. Mental Health Residential Treatment · il. Transportation 12. Developmental Achievement Centers/ Work Achievement Centers 13. Information and Referral 14. Respite Care 15. Community Programs for the Mentally'Handicapped In all, over forty county-funded services were considered in formulating the recommended priorities. West Hennepin Human Services Planning Board will be attending the Hennepin County budget hearings held in Sep- tember. In particular, the Community Social Services budget will be monitored to insure that West Hennepin priorities are part of the budget package passed by the County Board on October 9, for 1985 funding. Because of our awareness of these needs and the lack of an agency or organization which speaks for thc poor in our communities, we have supported the development of a Community Action Agency for suburban and rural Hennepin County. The purpose of a Community Action Agency (C.A.A.) is to focus all available resources to help the poor become self-suffi- cient. About $275,000 of" additional funds will be available from local State funds. In our laBt newsletter, we indicated that the Hennepin County Board was considering the development of a Community Action Agency. On · June 5, 1984 the Hennepin County Board passed a resolution initiating a process to create a private, non-profit C.A.A. West Hennepin Human Services Planning Board, Northwest Hennepin Human Services Council, and South Hennepin Human Services Council developed a plan for a structure which was presented by County staff at public hearings in Crystal and Hopkins in July. 150 people attended the~e hearing? and were in support of the C.A.A. West Hennepin Human Services Planning Board supports the private, non-profit model because it provides the greatest participation of low-income citizens, COMMUNITY ACTION AGENCY TO BE DESIGNATED West Hennepin Human Services Planning Board has been concerned about the needs of low-income people who live in Hennepin County for many years. Our experience has shown that the needs of the poor in our area are.-' very different. For example, geographic-" isolation and lack of reliable transpor- tation may keep a poor, elderly woman from shopping at a grocery store with lower prices, from applying for fuel assistance, and from socializ- ing with her friends over a hot nutri- tious meal. Poor residents in more sparsely populated areas may be more reluctant to come forward for assistance local officials, and community-based organizations; has been shown to be the most effective model 'of providing services and programs; would be able, through the strong community partici- pation, to build on already available services and prevent duplicati¢ and fragmentation; and would be les. likely to have conflict in the decision- making process because of its less~ complicated structure.

The Council also said use of the fiscal disparities law to finance the convention center is inconsistent with the law. The Coun- cil communicated its commenta to the ~ate agency that has site selection responsibility. Housing-The Metropolitan Council reviewed Anoka County's application for a 1984 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG), and because the application information was brief and not site-specific, urged the county to review the proposal in light of local comprehensive plans. The Council also recommended: the Ham Lake project application to be rejected until the federal Department of Housing and Urban Development receives Council certification of the project's nsistency with regional plans; the Bethel project applica- ~n be rejected until the city prepares a comprehensive plan; d that future CDBG funds be targeted for affordr, ble housing in Circle Pines, Andover, Anoka, Blaine and Hilltop. Water Quality-The Council requested the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency to modify the terms of its permits governing combined sewer discharges. The modifications requested establish a firm date--Sept. 15, 1985-by which the Council will modify its policy plan, and a date-June 30, 1986--by which implementation of the new plan will begin. Ambulance License-The Council recommended approval of an applib, ation by Biomedical Research Associates, Inc. to modify its storewide advanced life support transportation service. The language of the license will delete the word "cardiac" to allow more flexibility in the use of equipment and the scope of patients 5iomedical can se.~e.

Airport~--The Council appointed the state commissioner 'of transportation as the Council's agent with the Federal Aviation Administration for the purpose of carrying out the periodic update of the region's airports policy plan. Shorewood-The Council reviewed an amendment to the Shorewood Comprehensive Plan which calls for changing a 44-acre tract from Iow-density to a residential Planned Unit Development. The Council recommended that the 85 housing units to be added be timed to receive sewer services after 3provements to the Lake Virginia pumping station are ~leted. The Council also recommended *,hat Shorewood submit a plan amendment covering the proposed Trivesco housing and commercial development east of Christmas Lake. The recom- mendation also asked Shorewood to submit a comprehensive sewer plan amendment for the development to the Metrcpoii- tan Waste Control Commission. Health--The Council decided to co-sponsor a regional "Health Vote," a non-partisan information campaign to be launched with the aid of news media, elected officials, and health, business and labor groups. During the campaign, residents will be asked to join in a poll concerning heaith care issues. Sponsoring or~anizations are expected to initiate actions based on the survey results. PUBLIC HEARINGS, PUBLIC MEETINGS Budget-The Council will hold a punic hearing Sept. i0, 5 p.m., in the Council offices on its proposed 1985 work program and budget. Estimated expenditures for 1S85 are $11.6 million, 0.4 percent lower than the 1984 budget. The work program includes developing a "Metropolitan Frame- work" that analyzes factional trends and their effect on delivering public, services in :he future, continuing work in solid waste management emphasizing waste recycling, and studying the impac~ of widening interstate Hwy. 35W from Minneapolis to its southern suburbs. The schedule calls for final action by the Council Sept. :27. For a copy of the draft, call 291-6464. Parks-The Council set a public hearing for 4 p.m.,Sept. 17, to hear public comments on a proposed amendment to the Regional Recreation Open Space System Plan. The amend- ment would transfer S300,000 for land acquisition at Bryant Lake Regional Park, Hennepin CounW, to the Minneapolis Park Board for renovating the Lake Harriet bandsheti and surrounding area. At the same hearing, t,Se Council will hear comments on a plan amendment designating publicly owned land on Big Island in Lake Minne~onka as a regional park.

September, 1984 STATE OF MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE Telephone: Dear Sir or Madam: As part of the Tax Amnesty Bill passed by the 1984 Minnesota Legislature, the Commissioner of Revenue was given the authority to provide business tax clearances prior to the reissuance of any required licenses. The Department of Revenue believes that it is extremely important for you to be aware of the new law and the requirements of business tax clearance. The enclosed notice briefly explains these two items. If you have any further questions, please feel free to contact the undersigned. Thank you in advance for your cooperation. Sincerely, Karen B. Swanberg, Tax Examiner ~ Minnesota Department of Revenue Special Enforcement Unit P. O. Box 64451 St. Paul, MN 55164 (612) 297-3995 KBS:Pcci Enclosures AN EQUAL OPPORTUNITY EMPLOYER September, 1984 STATE OF MINNESOTA DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE NOTICE Telephone: The 1984 Minnesota Legislature passed a very significant bill of particular interest to Minnesota businesses in general. The new l~w provides a period of tax amnesty--from August 1 through October 31, 1984--to Minnesota individuals and businesses with a delinquency in their state tax obligations as of February 1st of this year. This law is primarily designed, to help those many businesses in Minnesota who, due to the recent economic recession, were unable to keep up with their state tax obligations. For those businesses who fail to take advantage of amnesty, the bill also provided a major new enforcement measure that centers on business licenses. The Commissioner of Revenue is now authorized to stop the issuance or renewal of any business license issued by the state, county, or municipality for busi- nesses that have a state sales or withholding tax liability in excess of $1000. The Commissioner of Revenue is responsible for notifying the licensing author- ity if an applicant has a tax delinquency. The licensing authority shall then deny the issuance or renewal of the license until the Commissioner issues a tax clearance certificate. The Commissioner of Revenue will be responsible for handling all disputes, appeals, and negotiations resulting from a license denial. This clearance program will begin November l, 1984-at the conclusion of amnesty.

The stable June to July level was somewhat atypical as the 14-year. average change in the jobless rate between these two months is -0.2 of a percentage point. Generally there is a seasonal contraction in the size of the local labor force in July as education services employment declines significantly with the end of the school year. The number of unemployed typically falls by a faster rate than the labor force contraction resulting in a decrease in the unemployment rate. However, this July the number of unemployed dropped by only 1.7 percent, significantly slower than the 14-year average decrease of 6.0 percent. The slower rate of decline is probably due to the lingering affects of the labor dispute involving Twin Cities area nurses and 15 private hospitals and an apparently temporary increase in layoffs in the manufacturing sector, particularly in the transpontation equipment industry. this point in time, it does not appear that there will be a deterioration in labor conditions in the near future. The August figures are expected to follow along typical seasonal trends with the unemployment rate dropping slightly.

EMPLOYMENT AND EARNINGS CONDITIONS The number of nonagricultural wage and salary jobs decreased slightly in July due to seasonal cutbacks in private a(~m) public education services and a t~oraryI shutdown in the transporta- tion equipment manufacturing industry. After accounting for this temporary shutdown, and adjusting for seasonal factors there was little change in the number of manufacturing jobs between June and July. This was one of the few times in the past 18 months in which manufacturing employment has not posted a noticeable increase. The service sector experienced substan- tial growth on a seasonally-adjusted basis. However, most of this was due to the partial call back of nurses and hospital support staff after the settle- ment of the labor management dispute in early July. The trade sector registered a strong monthly gain in terms of employment. Typically, employment in retail trade establishments slumps in July. Over fourteen years for which esti- ar~ available, retail trade em- ployment has dropped by an average of 1.6 percent between June and July. Through the first six months of 1984, retail sales in the Twin Cities area are 15.5 percent greater than a year ago. Nationally, retail sales for the first six months of the year are run- ning 12.5 percent ahead of last year's pace.

' Denotes seasonally-adjusted data. THE JOB MARKET Job prospects in financial services are rapidly changing due to deregulation creatin a more competitive environment among firms in this sector of the economy. One of thei. responses has been the cost containment practice of replacing the manual processing of information with sophisticated capital equipment. Our previous issue cited evidence of the impact of automated systems in a shift in job growth to industries with smaller, less clerical-based staffs. This month's focus is on the trends for particular occupa- tions under a continuation of this scenario. Experts who study the.effects of widespread automation on employment agree that the need for professional and technical workers will increase while many of those perform- !ng routine clerical or managerial tasks will become unnecessary. Plentiful opportuni- 'ties are available for highly skilled producers, users and-~epairers of'the new techno- logies, as well as for sales and service workers who are minimally affected by office automation. There will also be continued demand for managerial and clerical staff who work with the public, while the number of those dealing strictly with data decreases. Besides choosing a particular occupation, it is to a job seeker's advantage to develop skills and attain experience in interfacing with both people and automated information systems. In financial services, employment prospects vary between the short and long term. Those currently seeking a lasting position are advised to consider both future growth and the present labor supply/demand situation. The accompanying chart lists ten large local occupations in financial services that meet both criteria. Secretary Janitor/Cleaner Securities Sales Insurance Rater Switchboard Operator Receptionist Guard Customer Service Clerk Credit Analyst/Collector Systems Analyst All of the above have a lower than average number of Twin Cities Metro Job Service ap- plicants per opening and an above average projected national growth rate to 1995. It is instructive to note which occupations do not make the list. At the present time there are few applicants per opening in many occupations that are projected to experi- ence stable or declining employment, including accounting clerk, file clerk, typist and keypunch operator. These jobs tend to be routine, low-paying and have rapid em- ployee tuF'nover. Because of this high replacement demand, work is relatively easy to o~tain in these areas. They are also more prone to elimination through installation of machines with word processing, funds transfer, c~eck processing and data base capa- bilities. Many companies hope to reduce staff by promotion or attrition rather than resorting to layoffs. Nonetheless, job security in these occupations is questionable. On the'other hand, many "fast growing" occupations attract and keep a large number of .peoPle. New entrants may find fierce competition for these positions. Accordingly, slight surpluses of accountants, computen programmers, EDP operators, real estate sales- persons, claims adjusters and entry-level managers have surfaced recently.
