MSA Construction Fund
#7023
Dear Jon:
We will attempt to bring you up to date on where the City is with MSA mon-
ies and what to-look for in the future. As of December 31, 1983, the City
should have $95,462.49 in their construction fund. The tentative apportionment
for 1984 is $141,872.00, of which $34,000 will be earmarked for maintenance,
leaving $107,8972 to be added to the construction fund. Each year the City
must. make their interest and principal payment from these funds for the MSA
Bonds sold in 1981. The following is a schedule of the remaining principal
payments which must be made from the construction fund.
Bond Repayment Schedule
*Principal Only
1984 $35,000
1985 $40,000
1986 $40,000
1987 $50,000
1988 $50,000
*Only principal is paid from the construction fund, interest is p~id from
maintenance funds.
We have estimated what the City can expect to have in their construction
fund through 1988. The following schedule shows the approximate balance in the
construction fund at the end of each year through 1988, if no monies were spend
except for the bond principal payments.
Year
Approximate Construction Fund Balance
1983 $ 95,462.49
1984 168,000.00
1985 236,000.00
1986 306,000.00
1987 368,000.00
1988 433,000.00

The State Aid rules set a maximum which is allowed to accumulate in the
construction fund. This maximum is $300,000.00 or twice the annual allotment
(whichever is greater) as of Sune 30 of the current year, not including the
current year's allotment. I would interpret this to mean the City would not
have to use any of this fund until at least 1987 and possibly 1988.
The one street that could be considered for improvement is Auditors Road.
The State has the first 530 feet east of Commerce designated as one section and
from this point across Lost Lake to Cypress Lane at City Hall as another
section. The dividing point for these two sections is approximately at the
M.T.C. drive. The estimated cost for complete improvements for this first
section, as per MSA estimates, is approximately $67,000.00
The City at this time is .4 of a mile short of their maximum State Aid
designation. The extension of Belmont Lane past the Post Office could probably
be added to the system. HSA monies could then be used for upgrading this sec-
tion along with all of Auditors Road. A rough approximation of the total cost
for Auditors Road and the section of Belmont Lane would be in the neighborhood
of $150,000.00. The previous table showing the approximate construction fund
balance would indicate that the money is available to accomplish this construc-
tion at any time.
We will further address these possibilities, along with the Preliminary En-
gineering RepOrt forthcoming on the Post Office improvements. We would be
available to discuss the NSA system with the Council at any of their upcoming
meetings.

Re: Mound City Hall Roof Leak
Dear Mr. Kleven:
We represent the City of Mound. The City has asked us to assist them in
recovering for damages they have incurred which resulted from defective work performed
by Sander and Company.
The City has advised, us that in July, 1980, Sander and Co. applied a General
Electric silicone roof on the Mound City Hall Building. Sander and Co. and General
Electric Company provided the City with a five year extended guarantee.
On September 15, 1980, Sander and Co. was notified by the City that the roof
was leaking. Leakage occurred again during the week of May 29, 1981, and again
Sander and Co. was notified. Sander indicated they would send someone to look at
the roof.
Leaks continued and a dialogue was established between Sander and Co. and the
City relating to how the leak should be repaired. Sander agreed to recover the roof,
at no charge, in conjunction with a skylight alteration. -
Sander and Co. patched the roof on December 27, 1982.
An inspection was done by Forensic Engineers in August, 1983. The inspection
revealed that the GE silicone roof was applied unevenly, creating several ridges and
valleys which trapped standing water. Contraction cracks occurred in the GE silicone
roof, allowing water penetration. The GE silicone roof did not bond to the skylights,
allowing water to run down the skylight plexiglass, under the GE silicone roof, and
into the building. The inspection showed that the GE silicone roof had striations and
layering, evidence of incomplete bonding. This lack of bonding allowed water seepage.
In addition to the Roofing System Warranty (Warranty No. 2022), Sander and
Co. made express warranties that the GE silicone roofing system would not leak, and
would bond to the plexiglass skylights.
WURST, PEARSON, HAMILTON, LARSON & UNDERWOOD
Mr. Tom Kleven
November 29, 1983
Page 2
Because the GE silicone roofing system was not suited for the use that was
intended, and because the system was not properly applied, the City has incurred
extensive damges. Considerable water damage has occurred on the interior of the
building. As you know, it was necessary to take up the roof you installed, and replace
it.
The total cost to the City of the repair work was $41,268.00.
We would welcome the opportunity to meet with you for the purpose of addressing
an appropriate settlement of our claim. Please consider this a demand or claim by
the City of Mound in the amount of $41,268.00 against Sander and Co. and General
-Electric.
Very. truly yours,

programs of the Employer.

and shall have no authority to make a decision on any
other issue, not so submitted.

sions contrary to, or inconsistent with, or modifying
or raring in any way, the application of laws, rules
or regulations having the force and effect of law.

sentatives and witnesses. If either party desires a
verbatim record of the proceedings, it may cause such
a record to be made, providing it pays for the
record. If both parties desire a verbatim record of
the proceedings, the cost shall be shared

denied at that Step and immediately appeal the grievance
to the next Step. The time limit in each Step may be
extended by mutual agreement of the Employer and the
Union.
Choice of Remedy. If, as a result of the written
Employer response in Step 2, the grievance remains unre-
solved, and if the grievance involves th~ suspension,
demotion or discharge of an employee who has completed
the required probationary period, the grievance may be
appealed either to Step 3 of Article VI or a procedure
such as: Veteran's Preference or Fair Employment. If
appealed to any procedure other than Step 3 of Article
VI, the grievance is not subject to the arbitration
procedure, as provided in Step 3 of Article VI. The
aggrieved employee shall indicate, in writing, which
procedure is to be utilized, Step 3 of Article VI or
another appeal procedure and shall sign a statment to the
effect that the choice of any other hearing precludes the
aggrieved employee from making a subsequent appeal
through Step 3 of Article VI.

LAKE USE COMMITTEE: Bauman reported that the Lake Use Committee
reviewed the after-the-fact Special Event Permit application for
a boat show-at ChaskaMarina, reviewed the necessity of permits
for boat shows at marinas, and recommended the application for
approval.
The committee reviewed with the representatives .of county maintenance
and the Water Patrol the placement during 1983 of Quiet Water signs,
QW buoys, and the navigation buoys:
The 1983-1984 buoy program was discussed, with the county
advising that navigation buoys are ordinarily placed in 8 feet
of water, which may affect the location and distance from shore,
depending on Lake level. There is ordinarily 10 feet of chain
on each of these buoys, and occasionally, if water is low,_a
buoy may be placed in 6 feet of water.
2. Some buoys were not placed this year because of high water,
such as at the south side of Crystal Bay and at other locations.
Channel markers were eliminated on the north end of Browns Bay
and Pelican Channel because these channels have filled to the
extent that they do not have a safe operating depth.
4. The number of buoys placed varies with the Lake level.
The county will check the possibility of using aluminum buoys
rather than plastic buoys, in order to cut down on damage and
vandalism.

"Recruiting Volunteers by Discovery and Invitation" is the topic
of the workshop to be held Wednesday, December 7 from 1:00 - 3:00
p.m. at St. George's Episcopal Church, 5225 Minnetonka Blvd., St.
Louis Park. Sponsored by the Hennepin County Transportation Coordi-
nation Program and the Greater Minneapolis Council of Churches
Chore and Home-delivered Meals Projects, the workshop will be
presented by Jean Trumbauer Wieczorek, trainer and consultant, and
Kathy Larson, Northeast Dinner B~ll ~ordinator. For more informa-
tion and to register, call 870-3660.
The Metropolitan Transit Commission (MTC) has requested funds from
thD. Urban Mass Transit Administration to purchase up to 20 lift-
equipped busses. The accessible busses will be integrated within
the mainline service on an experimental basis, tentatively in
early 1985. For more information, contact Judy Hollander, Director
of Special Services, 221-0939.
Metro Mobility is in the process of implementing a computerized
system called CADMS - Computer Aided Dispatch & Management System.
According to David Naiditch, Metro Mobility Manager, files are
being organized on everyone certified to use the Metro Mobility
system. Information on file will include certification number, age,
type of disability, trips taken, etc. When requesting a ride,
individuals will be able to give their certification number only,
and all other information can be retrieved immediately. CADMS
will also enable Metro Mobility to obtain statistics such as age of
ridership and trips taken most frequently. Ultimately, CADMS will
result in smoother and more accurate processing of rider information.
The listinq "Transportation Services for Senior Citizens in Hennepin
County," last revised in July, 1983, will not be revised in January
1984 as intended. Instead, an addendum listing the additions and
changes in transportation services will be developed and s~nt'to
those who have requested listings in the past. The distribution
of this addendum is planned for January.
The Hennepin County Transportation Coordination Program staff is
currently evaluating its objectives for use in planning for the
1984/85 program year and applying for continuous Title IIIB funds.
The Transportation Coordination Program staff would appreciate any
comments on the program's activities to date from those organiza-
tions and individuals interested in senior transportation in
Hennepin County. Please feel free to contact Gary Kelsey or
Kathy Farris at 827-1721.

status of the airport consistent with
state law. The Council had earlier
recommended the airport be upgraded to
"intermediate" status. The plan says
facilities provided at the airport be
consistent with those at other regional
minor airports.
The plan reco--~ends additional r~nway
construction, improved instrumentation
and a control tower. The Council also
recommended the Metropolitan Airports
Com~mission consider irmtituting an
aircraft noise ordinance at the airport.
Transportation -- The Council
adopted revised guidelines to allocate
f~nds to purchase metropolitan high~y
rights of way. The guidelines are to
help implement a 1982 state law
authorizing the Council to levy a tax,
with proceeds of about $1 million
annually, to acquire metropolitan hiDhway
ri~ts of way threatened by imminent
development.
The Council recommended that 10
suburban paratransit programs (primarily
for elderly and handicapped people) be
provided funds from the Minnesota
Dep~-tment of Transportation (P.n/DOT) to
held pay for the estimated $1.2 million
in 198~ operating expenses. However, the
Council also recommended that M~/DOT
establish an evaluation process for such
programs.

Comorehensive Plans -- The Co~unci!
said t~e Ham Lake comprehensive plan
conforms with most plans for regional
gro~h and development. However, the
Council urged the city to adopt a rural
density of one unit per 10 acres, rather
t~mn the two-and-one-half-acre lot size
currently specified in the plan.
Bankln$ Practices --The Council
decided to have its Management Committee
perform a general review of the Council's
banking practices, including a look at
any potential conflicts of interest..
