PUBLIC, HEARING;
VACATION OF PART. OF LAGOON PARK THE HIGHLANDS -
NED PODANY
'Roger Reed, representing Mr. Podany, explained thht this vacation
is being requested to allow Mr. Podany to construct a double
garage meeting the setback requirements of the City and to give
the City an easement~across his property for legal access to
Lagoon Park. He gave some of the background information that
led to asking for a vacation.
The City Manager stated that the Park Commission ~ecommended
approval of the proposed concept of a land exchange in August of
1981, and the present Park Commission reaffirmed this
recommendation in September, 1983.
The Mayor opened the public hearing and asked for any comments
for or against the proposed vacation.
JOHN BILL - 3135 Priest Lane - asked if the access to the
park would be only a walking path. The City
Manager stated that it would only be for foot
· traffic, no trailers or boats, etc.
7
January 17, 1984
Mr. Bill then stated that several years ago he
had inquired about purchasing Lagoon Park so that
it could be maintained by the neighborhood. Mr.
Elam stated that the City cannot sell park
property'and it would have to be a vacation.
Councilmember Jessen read part of Minn.'Statute 412.851 regarding
the prQcedure for vacations.
LEO CLIFFORD - 3185 Priest Lane - objected'to the vacation
and stated that when he was building his home
he offered to fence off the lagoon so
childrens would not fall in and the Council
denied that request.
BOB TOMALKA - 3165 Priest Lane - asked Councilmember Jessen
to reread a portion of the Statute on vacations
dealingwiththe public interest. Councilmem-
bet Jessen .read the following:" ..... No such
vacation shall .be made unless it appears in
the interest of the public to do so after a
hearing preceded by two weeks' published and
posted notice."
Mr. Tomalka then stated that he felt this
vacation would be for Mr. Podany's personal
gain and should not be granted.
The City Attorney stated that the developer dedicated this park
land .to the City and that the City holds it in trust.
JIM BETLACH - 6189 Sinclair - stated that there is no parking
area for the park except on Sinclair and they
already have parking problems so they don't
need more cars trying to find a parking place
for this park.
KAREN PODANY - 6165 Sinclair - stated there is only one dock
in Lagoon Park so that cannot cause great
parking problems.
DUANE LEISINGER - 5917 Ridgewood Road - suggested that the
City. provide an access across the swamp by
using a system similar to the ones used in
the wetlands of Carver Park instead of
vacating part of the park for access.
LEO CLIFFORD - stated he did not want a public walkway
because kids would start using the area at
night and it would cause policing problems.
JIM BETLACH - stated that the dock that was down there the
last two years has created parking problems on
Sinclair and he would like to see the dock
8
eliminated all together.
The Mayor closed the public hearing.
January 17, 1984
The Council discussed the various problems: parking; the dock;
the access. '-"~
Polston moved and Paulsen seconded a m6tion to deny the vacation
of a part of Lagoon Park because the park is a public trust and
it is not in the public interest to vacate. Also it would set a
precedence if the park were vacated. The vote was four in favor
with Counci&member Jessen voting nay. Motion Carried.
PUBLIC HEARING.: DELINQUENT UTILITY BILLS
The Mayor opened the public hearing and asked if anyone on the
delinquent-utility bill list wished to speak to the Council about
their bill. No one replied. The Mayor closed the public
hearing.
Paulsen moved and Peterson seconded the following resolution:
RESOLUTION #8~-11
RESOLUTION 'TO APPROVE THE DELINQUENT
UTILITY BILLS IN THE AMOUNT OF $4,303.45
AND AUTHORIZING THE STAFF TO SHUT-OFF
WATER SERVICE FOR THOSE ACCOUNTS
The vote was unanimously in favor. Motion carried.
1994 CITY INSURANCE. PACKAGE
Insurance Consultant, Bill Husbands, was present and explained
that the reason Earl Bailey was not there wa~ because of an
emergency in his family. He pointed out that the City has
received the following quotations for the 1984 insurance package:
~ HOME IDEAL

TOTAL 75,757 59,979 68,260 58,794
9
January 17, 1984
Mr. Husbands explained that the reason for a bid from Ideal,
Mission and Penco/Hartford is that he had asked Earl to seek bids
from other firms because of the way The Home had treated the City
in the past with regard to claims settlements. He went over the
coverage of each company with the Council.
Councilmember Peters°n asked why the commission for the multiple
company coverage was more. The City Manager reported that there
was alot of time spent by Earl in research to find good
companies. ..
Mr. Husbands recommended the insurance paqkage from Ideal,
Mission and Penco/Hartford at a total price, with commission, of
$58,794.
The City Manager noted that the City had budgeted $105,051 for
· insurance in 1984 and being that the quote has come in at $58,794
it means a savings of $46,000.
Peterson moved and Paulsen seconded"the following resolution:

FOR 198~
The vote was unanimously in favor. Motion carried.
MRS. PAT WEBER REPRESENTING,RUDY BOSCHWITZ' OFFICE

asked what portion of the federal tax dollar comes back to
Minnesota. Mrs. Weber said she would find out and inform him.
Councilmember Charon asked what his position on A.T.&T. was.

Ms.
Ms. Weber then presented Senator Boschwitz' Fair Play Budget and

10
January 17, 1984
from citizens present.
LARRY CONNOLLY - suggested that the Council consider having
the employ.ees who have administrative cars take
them home at night so they can be put in a garage
because just letting them sit out in the cold day
after day can do more damage.
The Council thanked Mr. Connolly for his suggestion.

REVIEW oF CITY MILL RATE
The City Manager went over the preliminary set of 1984 Mill Rates
for Mound and how they break down.

In. our budget proposal we had est~imated Assessed Value at
$64,512,465, a difference of $402,063. I had over estimated that
our basic value would increase more than $82,000 out of $60
million.
One mill equals a total of one tenth of one percent of the total
Assessed Value or a total of $64,110.40.
To figure out the total property taxes 'due in 1984 (before Home-
stead Credit deductions) you multiply $64,110.40 times our mill
rate of 106.847 which equals approximately $6,850,003.90, an
increase of $369,295.24 or 5.7%.
Thus without any increase in values or Homestead Credit, that
would be an increase in taxes in 1984 over 1983. Unfortunately,
with a major restructuring of the Homestead Credit program in
1983, that may not prove to be the case.
PAYMENT OF BILLS
Paulsen moved and Peterson seconded a motion to approve the
payment of the bills as presented on the pre-list in the amount
of $120,145.04, when funds are available. A roll call vote was 4
in favor with Mayor Polston abstaining. Motion carried.

OF THE
CITY COUNCIL
The City CounCil of Mound, Hennepin County, Minnesota, met in
special session on January 24, 1984, at 4:30 P.M. in the Council
Chambers at 5341Maywood Road, in said City. Those present were:

and Gary Paulsen. Councilmember Peterson was absent and excused.
Also present were City Manager Jon Elam and City Clerk Fran
Clark.
Mayor Poiston opened the meeting.
REQUEST FOR CONVEYANCE OF,.,,,,,,,PID ~2q-llY-2q ql 013~
The City Manager explained that there is litigation against the
City for not granting a variance in lot size on Lot 4 and the
Easterly 20 feet of Lot 5, Block 3.6, Wychwood. The City Clerk in
checking on special assessments and taxes on this property
learned from the County that the property has now reverted back
to the State because it was being purchased on a contract and
the taxes were not paid. This is an undersized lot and cannot be
improved because of noncompliance with the City of Mound zoning
code. The City would therefore like to have this land conveyed
to it for park/open space and the Council should pass a
resolution requesting this.
Paulsen moved and Charon seconded the following resolution:

The applicant is requesting to expand their commercial dockage for the

The former owners did have a condition use approval (see attached Resolution

ordinance section 23.413 Docks Serving Commercial Property
Comments
I would suggest that the Planning Commission consider several items:
1. Limit the restaurant owner to the present size and number of boats to
be used for excursion purposes.
2. Consider neighbor comments at the public hearing.
3. Have the applicant comment or address the lighting of the site.
4. No boat launching 'is to be allowed at the site.
5. Possibly, restrict dockage of private boats to the hours that the restaurant
is open, except for the excursion boats of the restaurant owner.

and they are requesting a. Condltlonal.Use permit for:the same dgckage and in
· addition, they. have purchased Lots 22 and 23, Whipple Shores, and wish to put an
"h" shaped, dock on-these lots.as shown 'in the submitted.diagram. There i~ a..'

Merritt'Geyen ~xplalned'that they purchase~ Lots :22.and 23, Whipple Shores and
plan to.move the dockage of'their 4.cruise boats over.to'the "h".shaped dock on
that property (5186 Tuxedo).. The. cruise .boats would be docked on reis dock
leavlng'the other dockage, in .front of'5200..and 5218 Piper Road (Lot 1, Block 3,

rant.- They plan.that patrons would board:the cruise boats.from the dock at 5186
Tuxedo Boulevard (Lots 22 and 23, Whlpple'Shores).' They also plan to llght the
dock and put in a walk similar to. the one on the other side of Chester Park.
Reese expressed concern for the neighbo~ on Lot 21 to the east, particularly on
llghting and.nolse. '.Merrltt'Geyen stated thE'land drops down and.the lighting
~ould be shielded from the neighboEs'to'the east by the hill. She 'also commented
that the boats were not very noisy. The. four.cruise boats ~ill be docked inside
the "h"; there is room for.2 on each slde~..Weiland questioned if there is ade-
quate parking on the lot. Mrs.'Geyen-stated they encourage'groups.to come by
bus and at least half do come by bus; also.a good many patrons come by boat.and
they wi1'1 dock on ~he transient docks..
Fred Same explained that he had discussed the dockage with the L.M.C[D. and they
· want to comply with all regulations. 'He mentioned that they plan to have the
cruise boat.runs come in at 9 p.m. or so; so noise from boats and'boat patrons
should not bother the neighbors late at night.
The slgnage was dlscussed;.also the danger of children on the docks while boats
are there. There was much concern for the beach area not being properly kept
clear of boats. It was discussed that in addition to the items of the'fbrmer
use permit, the following be added:
1. The number'of cruise boats be llmited to q.
2. That there'be no dockage on inside of either dock'by beach area -
permanent posts and barrels will be between the docks to keep
boats away from the swimming are~.
3. Allow a sign for the dockage not to exceed 24 square feet.
4. The "h" dock on east to be used only for the 4 commercial boats.
Discussed what precautions should be taken to safeguard children on the docks, etc

STATEMENT OF GEORGE
and DORIS SMYKOLSKI
IN OPPOSITION TO APPLICATION
FOR.CONDITIONAL USE PER~IT
TO: Membe~ of the Nk)und City Cc~ncil
Our names are George and Doris Smykols~ and we reside at 5180 Tuxedo
Boulevard, Mound, Minnesota 5556~. Our lot'is Lot 21 of ~ipple Shores, and
we reside i~nediately to the east of the residential lot~ that w~d serve
We first received official notice of this hearing in the mail and by
our presence at the public hearing, and throuc3h this state~a,~u, wish to
express our opposition to the Council granting this cc~tic~al use permit.
First of all, we have resided at this residemce since 1967. I, George,
am disabled from and have been from Muscular Dystrophy since 1978. It was
first diagnosed in 1971. My c~ly ~ ~s social securit~ disability. Doris
had been employed a total of 28 years at Honeywell, ~ currently works as
an ir~r. Since I, George, am disabled,' I spend all of nea~ly every day
at ou~ residence. I spend many, many hours lookin~ at the lake, both from
our deck, inside the hc~e throu~ a large sliding window door, and in the
warmer seasons, I spend many hours cn our dock. It is the summertime that
I enjoy the most ~hen I can be on the dock. Doris, my wife, also spends
many evening ~ following her.work on the dock, fishing, or just plain
rela~ing. The proposed, docks would be approximately 25-55 feet fr~m where
our dock, with its C~epeau ber~ is located. This particular bemch was an
expensiv~ c~e that really cost more than we could afford. However, because
we spend so rm~h time there we felt it was worth the extra expense. There
is no way that the view could possibly be the same, since the proposed docks
and the boats will extend twice as far out into the lake as ours.
Secondly, the deck that I speak of was built in 1978 at a cost of $5,000.
The only reason that we did this was to maximize the view that we had of the
lake. As part of this, we did install a large, sliding window glass door for
access. This deck was not only difficult and expensive to ccmstrt~fc, but we
neighbors, and to come up with assurances that we ~uld do nothing to inter-
fere or obstruct with the view of any of our neighbors. All totaled, this
process took two to three m~nths, and involved att~ several Council
meetings. We very str~ly feel that this Council should give the same
consideration to protecting our view of the lake as it requi~ed of us when
we added our deck.
Our attorney, John W. Wood, Jr. has als~ reviewed the mSnutes and records
of the Co~%cil concer~ past action on these matters. We note, and have been
informed by him that ~hen the previous conditicnal use permit was granted to
Mr. J. W. Nolan, that the ~il clearly stipulated that:
"There be no further c~tinued expansion of said docks."
Whether the reference to exDansic~ was to only those docks that were the subject
of that permit or not, this is definitely a considerable expansi(m~. N~orin~
these four large cruise boats for as ~uch time as this application calls for
is not at all cc~siste~t with the intent and spirit of that earlier action of
this Council.
We also note that the present application calls for overniuht moorinu of
the boats, which is clearly contrary to c~e of the requirements of the co~diti~
use permit, which limits the time to a maximum of four hours. In additic~, there
will be a 24 square foot sign as opposed to a 6 square foot sign. We question
~hy these requirements appear to have been ,forgotten or waived.
Finally, and althouc3h we have no evidence to present to the Council on
this point, we cannot help but believe that it will be very difficult to sell
our property if we have to inform buyers that four large cruise boats will be
kept riuht alonc3side their dock all surm~r long, each and every s~,,.er. We feel
that if this application is granted, that our property will be devalued, and will
suffer a form of inverse cc~de~ation.
Respectfully Subaitted,

Dear Jan:
We have reviewed the utility as-builts and do not find any City services
located wlthln thls portlon of ExcelsiOr Lane. It appears that thls'
right-of-way is a possible access for the docks located on the channel to the
north. If thls ls the case, we would suggest that the Clty retaln 20 to 25
feet of the 66 foot right-of-way for access purposes, such as a tra11. It does
not appear feasible that a road would ever be constructed in this area because
of the topography. Enclosed is a copy of a portion of Hennepin County's plans
for 125, which shows this area.
If you have any questions, please contact me.
Very truly yours,

CASE NO. 84-302
Case No. 84-302 Proposed vacation of 'Excels'lot Eane between'Wilshlre Boulevard
and Cavan Road '
Daniel Sinner and P. L. Jacobson were present.
"The ~uil.dlng Inspector explained a letter had been sent to-all of the utility
companies relative.to'needing this portion of the street and the only one that
has not responded is Minnegasco. The City Englheer sent a copy of the County's
plans for ~'ilshire (# 125); it shows an area of Grushed rock. There is now
blacktop over the rock. Sinner stated the previous owner of his.property put
in the rock to make more.parking. The Engineer recommends retaining a 20 to
25 foot trail down center of street. The City has docks to north of this at
end of Cavan and acc&ssible from Cavan. .The && foot public rlght-of-~ay is
possible way to the lake and the docks, but Sinner adv'ised that none of the'
neighbors use Excelslor for two reasons: 1) there is no parki.ng on Wilshire
and 2) it is very steep going down Excelsior Lane and also marshy. Weiland
questioned if 'that wasn't just a drainage way. 5inner stated there is curb
.:here and he thought no water runs down from Wilshire.
'Mr. Sinner wants this street vacated for privacy now and in the future wants to
put in a garage. The Buildlng InspectOr advised that this would be considered a
corner lot with front yard setbacks off of Wilshlre and Excelsior which would make
it a hardshl.p to put in a'garage. The vacated street would give more room for a
garage and the setbacks would be for a sldeyard (10 feet) rather than street front
setback(20 feet). The Planning Cbmmission 'discussed the Engineer's recommendation
fo~ a trail, the topography and feasibility of access to dock area from Wilshire
through this property.and whether or not someone's right to walk to. the lake was
being denied.
Reese moved and Byrnes seconded a recon~endat|on to the. City Council to grant
Mr. Sinner's. request for vacating this portion of Excelsior Lane, but reserving
for the City a 20 foot wide trail easement down'the center and ~iying the other
two portions to Mr. 5inner and the.neighbor on the other side of the street.
The vote was Charon and Michael nay, all others voted in favor. Vote 4 to 2.
Motion carried.
The City Council will be asked to set a public hearing at their January 17th meeting;
the public hearing to be held February 14, 1984.

Proposed Street Improvements
#7064
Dear Mayor & Councilmembers:
As requested by the City Council we have completed a feasibility study for
upgrading to City standards the section of private road which is the extension
of Denbigh Road east of Cardiff Lane. The existing driven road loops back to
Wilshire Boulevard and is located .on private property with easements to the
various parcels in this area for access. The city constructed a watermain in
this private road in 1974 but it appears the easements obtained at that time
were strickly for utility purposes. The City would have to obtain the
right-of-way necessary for any street construction.
After a preliminary survey was completed, we do not feel that there is
enough land available to construct a cul-de-sac, Cherefore our cost estimate is
for construction of a thru street from Cardiff Lane to Wilshire Boulevard. Be-
cause of the tight conditions and to be consistant with the 1978 construction
of Denbigh Road to the southwest, we are recommending an 18 foot wide street
including concrete curb and gutter. This construction would require a minimum
20 feet right-of-way with temporary construction easements along both sides.
Due to the grades and the nearness of the existing garages, storm sewer is
also a necessity. We are proposing two catch basins with an outfall line run-
ning to the lake on the lot line between Lots 89 and 90. The concrete curb and
gutter proposed would be the standard design used on previous projects with 3
foot aprons at all driveways.
The estimated construction cost for these improvements is $23,200.00 with
the overall cost of the project estimated at $29;000.00. These estimates do
not include expense which may be incurred in acquiring the right-of-way neces-
sary for construction. Enclosed is break-down of our cost estimates.

There are a number of methoOs that could be used to access the cost of this
project. For discussion purposes we have calculated the proposed assessment
for each property using the City's current assessment policy which combines
area, footage and unit charges. Attached is a breakdown of this proposed.as-
sessment and a copy of Mound's assessment policy. We have included this policy
mainly because it gives the properties abutting the County Road a deduction
which of course is paid by the remaining properties.
It is the opinion of the Engineer that the proposed improvement is feasible
and can best be accomplished as described herein.
Sincerely,

In I976* the City adopted a atreet improvement assessment policy under
slutish No. 76-77. lme assessment criteria is as follows:
30 percent of the total cost to be assessed based on front footage.
Corner lots shall be calculated to include 811 front footage (front
and sides), All lots shall be deemed to have at least a minimum of &O
front feet.
bo
30 percent of the total cost to be assessed shall be based on the
square footage of the property to be assessed.
40. percent of the total cost to be assessed shall be based on a unit
basis.
Since 1976, the City Council has added the following refinements to this
policy,
Triangle Lots - lots that .form a triangle on two streets are to be as-
sessed for footage on the long side o~ly.
Multiple units other than duplexes are assessed on the basis of 3/4
unit per each residential unit in the building (Example: a 50 unit
apartment is assessed for 37.5 units plus footage plus area).
Lots that front on a County Road and a street improvement will be as-
sessed on the same basis as o~her lots except that the units and
square footage will be reduced by 50 percent.
Area of land formerly commons and now under private o~mership, to be
assessed as part of the private property.
Large parcels (e number of combined lot8) to be assessed'one unit,
plus area and footage. Two separate parcels under the same ownership
viii be assessed two units, plus area and footage if they both have
enough area to qualify as buildable sites under the present zoning.
o
e
Single lots under separate ownership from adjacent property that do
not meet the area requirements for a buildeble site viii be assessed
only area and footage.
Properties abutting alleys t.hat are bituminous surface only, with no
curb and gutter, to be assessed the same as any other property except
the front footage will be reduced by 50I with a minimum of 40 lineal
feet.
Properties which have the garage located across the street from the
house will be assessed on the same basis as other lots except the par-
cel in which the garage is located will not receive a unit charge.

Rroposed Street Improvements
#7064
Dear Mayor and Council Members:
For your consideration, we are submitting an alternate plan for the pro-
posed improvements to Denbigh Road. This alternate would be similar to the
original proposed construction except the street would be a dead-end instead of
looping back to Wilshire Boulevard.
Due to the limited space available, a full cul-de-sac is virtually
impossible. In order to turn around, vehicles would have to back into the pri-
vate driveways. This plan would eliminate the traffic hazard which would exist
at Wilshire Boulevard if Denbigh Road were extended through. We do not like to
see another dead-end street without a cul-de-sac, but his may be a better al-
ternative than the traffic problems at Wilshire Boulevard.
Attached is a cost estimate and the proposed assessments for Alternate A.
Very truly yours,

MINUTES OF THE
MOUND ADVISORY PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING
DECEMBER 12, 1983
Present' were: Chairman Frank Weiland; Commissioners Robert Byrnes, Geoff Michael,
Thomas Reese and Michael Vargo (who arrived'a few minutes late); Building Official
Jan Bertrand and Secretary Marjorie Stutsman. Commissioner Liz Jensen was absent
and excused. Commissioner Stan Mierzejewski was also absent.
Also present were the following interested persons: Mr. and Mrs. Edward Monette,
Lou Beasley, Danny Johnson and William Meyer.
The Chairman opened the meeting at 7:35 p.m. and welcomed those in attendance.
As there was not a quorum present, the Chairman started t'he meeting by interview-
ing William Meyer.
William "Bill'' Meyer explained, he read a notice in the Laker of openings on t
,,~ \
Park and Planning Commissions and called the City Manager. He has lived in Mound
for the past 3½'years just west of Cry. Rd. 44 on Bartlett; lived in Lake area on
Casco Point for 7½ years before moving to present home. He is married and has 3.
'children. He works for Norstan Communications. in Plymout.h; in management, s~les
and marketing--diversified activities with the Company. Does travel to branch
offices in Omaha and Milwaukee; but is fortunate enough'generally to schedule his
own trips so feels he would have no problem attending all the'meetings.
Commissioner Reese explained the commitment needed to be a member of Commission--
having to go out and look at the properties plus meetings require probably 7+ hours
a'month. Commissioner Byrnes asked Meyer what he would like to see for the Lost
Lake area. Meyer stated he hasn't formed any strong opinions; but feels what
happens there in the next five years will dictate how it will look 50 years from
now. Meyer asked" in matters like Lost Lake, how far in future does Commission
look? Do You address how City would look 10 or 20 years down the road?" Meyer
wants to contribute in long range planning as Well as the other requests.
MINUTES
The minutes of-the Planning Commission meeting ~f November 28, 1983 were presented
for consideration. Michael moved and Reese seconded a motion to accept the minutes
as presented. The vote was unanimously in favor.
BOARD OF APPEALS
1. Case No. 83-268 Lot Size Variance, 2919 Holt Lane
Lot 4, Block 6, Minnesota Summer Baptist Assembly
Mr. and Mrs. Edward Monette were present.
The Building Inspector explained that applicant wants to replace a portion
of the foundation. Area he would like to replace with new foundation is 10
feet on the south side of building from new portion to east. New addition
portion is on piers, but ma~n body of house is on crawl space.
Vargo questioned that this application is before' the Commission only because
of the undersized lot.
Vargo moved and Michael seconded a motion to approve the lot size variance
to allow structural repairs. The vote was unanimously in favor.
'P'lanning Commission.Minutes
December 12, 1983 - Page 2
Case No. 83-269 Subdivision (Lot-split), 1932 Shorewood Lane
Lots 8 & 9, Block 2, Shadywood Point
Lou Beasley and Danny Johnson were present.
The Building Inspector explai, ned applicant is requesting to sell 15 feet to
the adjoining neighbor, Danny Johnson. Lot 7 and the 15 feet Mr. Johnson is
buying from Mr. Beasley would give him 9,460.75 square feet of lot area so
that his lot is ~loser to'conforming size (within 10% of the 10,OO0 square
feet required for a building site). There .is a cabin on Lot 7 which Mr. John-
son plans to tear down and build a new house. The remaining portion of Lot
8 and 9 has a boat house which would have a zero foot sideyard setback. The
required setbacks for accessory building are 4 foot sideyard, 4 foot to rear
lot line and the setback requirement from the mean high water elevation for
accessory building floor has to.be 3 feet aboYe flood elevation; but there
is gravel in building and no floor. Building is in good condition.
Mr. Beasley stated he plans.to build a garage in the future and at that time,
he would be willing to take down boathouse. Needs it for storage now.
Discussed that replacing summer cabin with year around house is commendable.
Also discussed briefly that the off-street parking area would be worked out.
Byrnes moved and Vargo seconded a motion to.recommend, that the subdivision
be approved with the stipulation that if any structural changes or additions
be made to Lot 8 except the NWly 15 feet and Lot 9, Block 2, Shadywood Point,
it would come back to the Planning Commission and further that the required
off-street parking be provided. The vote was unanimously in favor.
REPORTS
The Building Inspector reported on the Counci.l's actions on the following items:
1) Harold Kutzner's Lot-split/subdivision, 2) Lowell Zitzloff'.s Variance for
Accessory Building Provisions, (l and 2 Approved), 3) Vacating a part of Lagoon
Park--public hearing set for January 17, 1984 and 4) Schlee Builders' Variance
request for Lots in Woodcrest 3rd Addition (Denied), 5) Fee schedule has been
increased for planning and zoning applications.
Various signs and sign requests were discussed briefly.

RENTAL REHABILITATION DEMONSTRATION PROgrAM
The Rental Rehabilitation Demonstration program is offered by HUD to
help local governments develop the capacity and experience to administer
streamlined, cost-effective rental property rehabilitation programs as
part of their overall community development and revitalization
strategies; and to prepare eligible grantees to assume responsibility
for the administration of the Rental Rehabilitation Program provided for
in the Housing and Urban-Rural Recovery Act of 1983. It is not a
separate program and has no funds associated with it other than what
participants voluntarily use; usually CDBG funds.
The Demonstration is not a permanent program but rather a self-limited
one. It gives participants a chance to design and operate rental
rehabilitation programs. Participants have the chance to develop
capacity and management skills, so that once regulations for the new
program are published during FY 1984. they can move quickly to implement
their new programs. HUD is interested in promoting the rehabilitation
of rental properties which require moderate amounts of rehabilitation
using minimum levels of public subsidies.
Each participating unit of government must budget public funds within
their control to leverage private rehabilitation financing. The prin-
cipal use of public funds is to subsidize the cost of private rehabili-
tation financing to the level required to make a project feasible at
market rents. The funds made available for any structure should not
exceed fifty percent of the costs necessary to rehabilitate that
structure. HUD will provide Public Housing Agencies (PHAs) operating in
participating units of general local government with special allocations
of Section 8 Existing Housing certificates to be used as part of the
Demonstration. Section 8 certificates, to the extent available, will be
provided to participants at a ratio of one certificate for each $5.000
in public subsidy funds committed to the bemonstration.
Although each applicant is promised flexibility in program designj it is
required that:
One or more areas of participation are definedJ Appropriate
areas are those where there is a need for rehabilitation of
rental residential properties principally occupied, or to be
occupied; by lower income tenants; where the rental housing
market is reasonably stable; and where, after rehabilitation,
"street rents", including utilities; will generally be afford-
able to low-and moderate-income renters and are within Section
8 Existing Housing Fair Market Rents for the area, ("Street
rents" means the highest rent. including utilities; that the
owner can reasonably expect to receive for the unit in a given
location and at a particular point in time from an unassisted
tenant.)
A property selected for rehab must contain one or more rental
units, whether owned by an absentee investor or an owner
occupant~ In addition; for properties to be considered eligible
for assistance they must; before rehabilitation, be substandard
(i,e.; not meet the Section 8 Housing Quality. Standards or a
locally determined standard) and require a minimum expenditure of
$1.000 per unit to correct substandard conditions.
· The property must be owned by private, for-profit owners.
· After rehabilitation, all properties assisted must, at a minimum;
meet the Section 8 Existing Housing Quality Standards.
· A written relocation/tenant assistance policy be developed.
· Compliance with Affirmative Fair Marketing requirements is
demonstrated.
All. projects must be structured so that operating costs[ debt
service and reasonable profit can be supported by the street
rents[ Public funds should be the minimum required to make
projects financially feasible[ The appropriate subsidy to
achieve program object~ves is some form of reduction of the
privately-financed cost of rehabilitating'the projectJ The
amount and type of subsidy will depend upon the program design
and upon the economics of the rental rehabilitation market for
the area. Examples of possible public rehabilitation financing
mechanisms are: {a) a direct front'end capital grant or a
deferred payment loan or (b) an interest-rate buy-down of a
private rehabilitation loan. The credit analysis and subsidy
determination for all projects must separate the rental subsidy
to lower income tenants administrativelyj financially and
conceptually from the subsidy for property rehabilitation~
No rent restrictionsj rent controlsj restrictions on return on
investment, or other policies which prevent an owner from
maximizing returnj and Which are different than those applicable
to structures being rehabilitated without assistance are to be
imposed.
Each Demonstration program encourage th~ delegation of
appropriate responsibilities to the private sector and utilize
streamlined processing procedures.
All participating property owners are made aware that they cannot
rely upon future public assistance for projects that subsequently
develop financial difficulties.
The property owner shall not discriminate against tenants on the
basis of their receipt of~ or eligibility for, housing
assistance.
Localities participating in the program must comply with all
applicable CDBG and Section 8 Existing Housing regulations and
policies.'
Local units of government applYing for the first time to be participants
in the program must submit an application'to HUD by February 21~ 1984
consisting of:
· Standard application for Federal Assistance Form 424~
A two-page narrative on why a rental rehabilitation program is
needed and why the Demonstration is particularly appropriate to
address these needs. The narrative should also state the
objectives of the applicant and expected accomplishments as a
result of participation.
A preliminary selection of one or more areas for the
Demonstration, with a discussion of why the area/s is/are
appropriate.
A brief description of the organizational framework for
implementing the Demonstration~ including the administrative and
managerial relationship between the administering agency and the
Public Housing Agency~
A Statement by the Chief Executive Officer certifying the
willingness .of the locality to comply with the program design
requirements and indicating the proposed amount of CDBG or other
funding which the applicant intends to commit, and when these
funds will be available. (The PHA also must certify its
willingness to cooperate with the agency in program
administration.)

Job #120-11294
Soil Exploration Company is pleased to respond to your
request to conduct a geotechnical exploration.'program and
hazardous waste evaluation at the Lost Lake dump site. This
proposal outlines the scope of our services and provides a
cost estimate for the work.
Description of Project
We understand the site is being considered for development.
Preliminary plans call for two, five-story condominium
buildings and associated one-story construction including
entrance areas and garage structures.
The site occupies approximately five acres and we understand
was used for disposal of construction debris. Because of
potential hazardous waste that may have been disposed of on
this site, it has been placed on the Minnesota Pollution
Control Agency list of possible hazardous waste disposal
sites. This site is referred to as HN-012 in the MPCA closed
dump file.

Antici.pated' Subsurface Conditi'ons"
Soil Exploration Company has put down soil test bo'rings in the area of
the existing service station. These borings indicated an extremely
variable soil profile. Typically, the soil profile consists of about
10' of fill underlain by a few feet of swamp deposits, in.turn
underlain by interlayered fine alluvium, mixed alluvium and coarse
alluvium, underlain by sandy clay and clayey sand glacial till. The
glacial till. soils also contain layers of interbedded coarse alluvial
silty sand..An exception to the generalized soil profile is indicated
in one of the thr.ee previous soil test borings. This boring
encountered about 9 1/2' of fill underlain by probable fill or mixed
alluvium to a depth of about 44' below grade. The probable fill or
mixed alluvial soils consist of a mixture of clayey sand, sandy clay,
silty clay and silty sand. These soils are extremely soft and have a
relatively low shear strength, based on the-penetration resistance (N
value). ..
We anticipate that soil conditions on this site will also include a
layer of fill at the surface, underlain by swamp deposits and soft
alluvial soils, in turn underlain by glacial till. It is quite
probable the depth of fill and swamp deposits will be greater in the-
proposed building area than were ehcountered in the area of the
existing service sta. tion.
Purpose of Study
The purpose of our study will be to 'determine whether any hazardous
waste may exist on the site and also explore th6' general subsurface
conditions to provide opinions and recommendations for support of the
proposed buildings and lower floor slabs, along with providing
recommendations for on grade parking and roadway areas.
Scope of Services
Our scope of services will include test borings, laboratory soil tests
(including E.P. toxicity leach tests and flashpoint tests) and a
geotechnical engineering analysis. Factual data and recommendations
will be included in the report to you. Specifically, our proposed
scope of work is as follows:
Explore the subsurface soil and ground w~ter conditions on the
site by means of eight standard penetration test borings taken
to depths varying from about 60' to 100' below existing grade.
We estimate a total of about 640 lineal feet of boring. The
City of Mound
January 26, 1984
Page Three
estimated boring depths' and' suggested locations are indicated on
the attached sketch.
Observe the samples for visual contamination and test
for volatile organics using a portable photo-ionizer.'. For
any samples that indicate total concentrations of volatile
organics greater than 20 parts per million, an analysis for
flashpoint will be performed on up to six samples. Also, six
E.P. toxicity leach tests will be performed.
e
Recommend possible foundation types for the proposed buildings.
Based on our preliminary review, it appears at this time
that a pile foundation will likely be required.
4. Provide recommendations for support of lower floor slabs.
Recommend grading procedures in on-grade parking and roadway
areas and estimate potential settlement that may occur due
to underlying compressible soils.
Fees
Our fees for these services will be charged on the basis of our current
schedule of fees, a copy of which is attached. For the scope of work
discussed' above, we estimate the cost would be in the range of $9,600
to $11,300. We further estimate about $2,500 to $3,000 of the above
figure would be realized due to the necessary' testing and analysis for
potential hazardous waste. Borings to a depth of about 40' would be
required both for detection of potential hazardous material and also
for foundation analysis. We estimate the cost of this field work and
preparation of the factual data would cost approximately $3,500 to
$4,000 of the above total. The remaining cost would be incurred due to
the additional boring depth and geotechnical analysis for the proposed
buildings and paved areas.
Conditions
If different subsurface conditions than those anticipated are
encountered, which we feel would warrant additional work beyond the
scope described above, we would propose to perform .such work at
additional cost. If this situation arises, we would discuss the
additional work with you and receive your written approval before
proceeding. The attached three pages entitled "General Conditions of
Geotechnical Agreement" are part of this proposal.

Performance Schedule
Weather permitting, we should be able to begin field work on this
project in about one week after, receivin§ the signed contract from you.
We expect about seven days will be required to complete the field
portion of our work. We further estimate that the final report could
be completed about two weeks after completion of our field work.

5.4 In the event Client fails to pay SEC within sixty (60) days following invoice
date, SEC may consider the default a total breach of this agreement and all
duties of SEC under this agreement terminated.
SECTION 6: OWNERSHIP OF DOCUMENTS
6.1 All documents prepareed by SEC as instruments of service will remain the
property of SEC.
6.2 Client agrees that all reports and other work furnished to the Client or his
agents, which are not paid for, will be returned upon demand and will not
be used by the Client for any purpose.
G-12~ (&/83)
6.3 SEC will retain all pertinent records relating to services performed for a period
of (3) years after the report is seot; during that time, the records will be made
available to the C/ient during SEC's normal business hours.
SECTION 7: DISPUTES
7.1 If SEC institutes suit against the Client to enforce any part of this agreement,
then all litigation expenses or collection expenses, including a~torneys' fees,
will be paid to the prevailing party.
7.2 If the Client institutes a suit against SEC which is dismissed or for which ver-
dict is rendered for SEC, Client will pay SEC for all costs of defense, including
attorneys' fees, expert witness' fees, and court costs.
SECTION g: STANDARD OF CARE
8.1 SEC will perform consistent with that level of care and skill ordinarily exer-
cised by members of the profession currently practicin8 under similar con-
ditions. No other warranty, express or implied, is made.
8.2 SEC will be responsible for its data, interpretations and recommendations,
but will not be responsible for interpretation by others.
SECTION 9: LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
9.1 SEC's liability to the Client and all contractors and subcontractors on the
project, for damages due to professional negli8ence, negligence or breach
of any other obligation to Client or others, will he limited to an amount not
to exceed $50,000 or the SEC fee, whichever is 8rearer. In the event Client
does not wish to limit SEC's liability, SEC will waive this limitation on writ-
ten notice from the Client received within 10 days after this agreement is
fully executed or before the work is commenced, whichever is earlier, and
Client will pay additional consideration equal to 10% of the total fee as a
charge for a Waiver of Limitation on Liability. This charge is not a charge
for insurance but is an increase in consideration for the greater risk involved
where work is performed with no limitation of liability.
9.2 Client will notify any contractor or subcontractor who performs work in con-
nection with any work done by SEC of the limitation of liability for design
defects, errors, omissions or professional negligence, and to require as a con-
dition precedent to their performin8 their work, a like indemnity and limita-
tion of liability on their part as against SEC. In the event the Client fails to

quirement shall be made to apply continuously and not be limited to nor-
mal working hours, and the Client further agrees to defend, indemnify and
hold SEC harmless from any and all liability, real or alleged, in connection
with the performance of work on this project, except liability arisin8 from
the sole negligence of SEC.
SECTION 10: INSURANCE
10.1 SEC will carry workers compensation insurance and public liability and pro-
party damage insurance policies which SEC considers adequate. Certificates
of insurance will be provided to Client upon request. Within the limits and
conditions of the insurance, SEC agrees to indemnify Client against any loss.
SEC will not be responsible for liability beyond the limits and conditions of
the insurance. SEC will not be responsib)e for any loss or liability arising from
negligence by Client or by other consultants employed by Client.

E. APPENDIX (SPECIALIZED FIELD SERVICES)
1. in-Situ Testing
ln-si~u testing, as diffeten~ted from laboratory testing, is the esting of soil or
rock in ils ~atuml environment. TI~ test equipment is brought to the field, rather
Ihan removing small samples and transporting ~ to t~e inb0rato~. ~ ests
aft conducted by engineers, geologists, or trained secbnicism, dependin~ on
specific lest and project conditions.
a, Va~e Sbe~r (ASTM:D2S73). The vane shear test is used to determine shear
atftngth of cohesive and/or organic soils at various depths in a drilled hole.
Torque is applied through a geared drive with proving ring readout. Charges

d. Pile Asudyzer (Cnse-Goble Method)~ The Case-Cmble method is used
city of piles. The analysis is accomplished using a field computer to which
data is fed directly from force and acceleration transducers mounted on the
pile. The equipment is operated in the field by a two-mau engineering cftw.
Charges aft based on n daily rate for rental of special equipment plus aw
plicable rates and expenses under regular fee schedule for two engineer-
operators, vehicle, and expenses.
Oumed on a Pro. iec~ Basis
e. Double Ring inrdtrome~er (ASTM:D3385). Our equl .pi.tent includes Iwo
sizes of mariotte lubes for automatic siphoning and accurate measuring of
water. The lest determines infilu'ation rates into the ground surface and is
I~rticulariy useful in evaluating spray irrigation waste disposal sites. The test
requires a two-man crew. normally an engineer and technician. Charges are
based on the following per test rate for rental of special equipment plus ap-
plicable rates and expenses under ftguiar fee schedule for the ~vo-man crew.
vehicle, and for data recluctinn in the office.
Rental of Equipment-per Test $40,00
f. Bore Hole Permeability. The bore hole permeability lest measures permeabili-
ty of specific strata below the earth's surface. We have designed special equip-
meat to make measuftments using bo~ constant head and falling head tests.
Pftssuft testing using packers is also performed. The tests are conducted in
a drilled hole and may require an engineer in the field. Charges aft based
on the following per day rental of special equipment plus applicable rates and
expenses for a drill rig and operators, test operator, and data reduction in
the offiee.
Rental of Equipment-Per Day $60.00
Geophysical surveying is the m of delineating ~c p~ysical char;ctetistics of the
eerth's mb,surface. The ~sults sought aft u~ally more general in scope than with

a. ~ Sm'veybL Seismic ~m~-ying inV°lvcs measuring thc vcloci~ of
seismic waves through subsurface strata.' These measurements are us~ to
in~..~i changes in substrata density, beth laterally and venlcally. T~ survey
requires a geologist and technician or two geologists depending on com-
plexity. Charges aft ha.so:l on the following daily rate for rental of special
equipment plus applicable rates and expenses under ftgular fee schedule for
test operators (geologist team), vehicle, and data reduction in the office.
Rental of Equipment-Per Day $60.00
b. ~ Resistivity Sm'vey~. Resistivity surveying involves measuring
linc electrical resistivity of soil and rock. These measurements aft used to
delineate boundaries between materials with contrasting electrical propeflies
and for corrosivity and electrical system grounding studies. The survey is
performed by one individual, or a ~ of two requiring either Ihe skill and
knowledge of a geologist or technician depending on complexity. Charges
are hased on the following daily ftntal of special equipment plus applicable
rates and expenses under ftguinr fee schedule for lest operator(s) (geologists
Rental of Equipment-Per Day $60.00
3. lr~e!d Instrumentation and Monitoring
The earth always ftslx~nds Io the forces imposed by construction or by nature
itself. The response can be movcmem (strain) or change in stress patterns o~
physical properties. Field instrumentation and moniloring is designed to meusuft
Ibese changes, wbetber they are cra. atari by man's construction or by the forces
of mmre.
a. indinomeler. The inclinometer measufts the change in vertical alignmem
of a casing (tube) placed in a drilled hole. Thc change can be measured at
any sele,~ed depth or cle~s, as often as is necesse~, over an unlimited time
frame, as long as tbe casing is nm destroyed. M~surements arc made by
au engineer or technician. Charges are based on the following ftntal of special
inclinometer equipment plus applicable rates and cxpensus under regular fee
schedule for purchase of casings, drill rig and operators, engineer or techni-
cian to lake readings, vehicle, and data reduction in the of Fz'e.

h4zximum Per Month $640.00
Transducer. Changes in the pore pressure, soil pftssuft or seulement of the
soil can be detee~d by special sensors placed on the surface prior to placing
earth fills. Poft pressuft and settlement transducers can also be placed in
drill holes. Readings are taken as oran us necessary over as long a period
as requited, provided the installed equipment is nol destroyed. Readings are
taken by an engineer or technician. Charges aft based on the following daily
rates for rental of special reading equipment plus applicable rates and ex-
penses under regular fee schedule for purchase of installed sensors, drill rig
and operators (if necessary), engineer or technician to take readings, and data

Legislative
onference
Because the legislative session convenes later this
year {March 6), the 1984 LMC Legislative Con-
ference will take place on Tuesday and Wednesday,
March 13 and 14, 1984.
lhe LMC Board of Directors voted to hold a
two-day conference, because many city officials
felt the conference covered too much material for
a one-day session and wanted more time for
program and policy adoption.
Registration will begin at 11 a.m. on Tuesday,
March 13. lhe program will kick off with a
luncheon speaker and panel discussion of pension
policies with Gus Dunhow, Commissioner of
Finance; Senator Donald Moe; and Representative
John Sarna. The afternoon session will include
LMC legislative policy adoption when cities can
vote on LMC policies and priorities; a detailed
review of the present and future process for-
adopting an LGA policy; and Ask the Lobbyist, a
workshop where city officials can ask questions of
LMC legislative lobbyists.
That evening LMC will host the annual reception
for city officials and state legislators.
Wednesday's program will start early with a
continental breakfast and an address from
Governor Rudy Perpich (invited).
lhe following session will deal with comparable
worth {equal pay for comparable work) for local
government employees. Proposals before the
Legislature could mandate pay equity for city
employees who have comparable jobs. LMC
supports comparable worth. But, other factors
such as merit systems, veterans preference, and
binding arbitration also lead to pay inequities.
Mandating comparable worth for cities Without
addressing the other issues could lead to escalating
personnel costs. Although we aren't sure whether
the Legislature will act on comparable worth
during the 1984 session, it will be a controversial
issue that will affect all cities in the years to come.
The morning session will also feature a legislative
priority briefing, where LMC lobbyists will outline
top-priority city issues for the 1984 session.
The conference will conclude with a Lobbying
Day on the Hill. LMC encourages you to make an
appointment now
your area legislators.

Our "brand-new" monthly pot-
luck dinner night will take the
shape of a "dinner theater" or
rather a "theater dinner". Drop
off your goodies at 2:45 and then
travel the long 150 feet to the
theater to see "Exit the Body" by
the Indianhead Players. We will
have dinner about 5:00 and play a
little cards later...if you have
time. Cost is $1.50 and a smile.
Reservations must be made by Fri-
day Feb. 10th.
This month's travel trip will in-
clude a dinner at Bishop's Buffet
(on your own). We will travel via
film to Scotland. Join the group
for a really nice inexpensive even-
ing'with your friends. COst will
be $3.50 for the ticket and trans-
portation.
Are you looking for an escape
from the winter blahs? Why not
join the senior Rovers on their
trek to Sunny Florida. Your Man
Tours leaves Sunday, February 26th
for 14 days. Call the Center for
reservations.
We ~ave limited our activities for
the month because we have undertaken
a fund-raising activity of the most
enormous variety. We will need all
the help we can find for this pro-
ject. As you are aware, we will need
to be self-supporting as a Center by
1986 and also need to raise money to
r~place our trusty "Merry Oldsmobile?
B,- doing a bigger fund raiser, we hope
to not have to do so many little ones.

Mr. & Mrs. Case are really
Cases! And this is only a thumb-
nail sketch of their lives. To
really know this couple, one should
visit with them; to have them
share their expericnces, one will
be all the richer for it. They
can be seen every.day at the Nutri-
tion Center sharing their lunch
with the other diners.
Antoinette, as her husband
fondly calls her,. was born in
Mpls. May 10, 1892; Toni's ele-
mentary years were spent in several
North Mpls. schools. High School
was intercepted while she cared
for her three younger sisters.
To do this, she worked at the Wash-
burn Crosby mills, seeing the
girls through high school. It
was then that Toni was able to at-
such schools as the U. of
icago, the Congregational The--
logical Seminary-and the U. of M.
She specialized in Business Law
and publishing.
Life began for Clyde Sept.
25, 1897 in Omaha. After H.S.
graduation, he enrolled in the U.
of Chicago, majoring in Mathematics.
The Congregational Theological Sem-
inary attracted his attention and
after spending time there, Clyde
Clyde, with a twinkle in his
eyes, related the story about get-
ting the marriage license. With
the formalities finished, the
e].erk "wished me good luck" but
Toni wistfully added, "He didn't
wish ME good luck." That was
just before they were married on
Sept. 17, !924.
To that union a girl and two
boys were born. The daughter,
Mrs. Earl Vol~¢anent lives on
Cook's Bay while one of the boys
lives in Calif., the other in
Princeton, N.J. Nine grand-
children and five great-grand-
children complete their happiness.
Toni proudly insists that
her hobby is her husband; to that
Clyde insists it's her cooking.
She has a deep interest in paint-
ing, writing, both poetry and
prose and of course reading,
especially scientific magazines.
Toni is really a jack-of-all-
trades; even to building a house.
Clyde, on the other hand
loves plants of all descriptions.
He grows many different kinds
usually giving them away. From
a large jade plant transported
from Calif., many plants were
pastored two congregational churches; utilized in that mannar as well
he and the parishioners, however,
did not think alike so the parting
of the ways led him to a Chemical
Su.pply Company.
While attending the U. of
Chicago our two friends met, later
to become man and wife. Toni
had to eat her words, "I'll never
marry a man younger than myself".
Toni had been employed to super-
as cultivating types of tomatoes.
At one time, Clyde was an active
member in the Begonia Club that
extended from Burnsville to
Elk River. An avid reader, too,
Clyde has kept up with all the
new trends; however, his failing
eyesight has hindered him somewhat
Despite it he makes regular
treks into the Mpls. library to
supply his ever inquiring mind.

varied and interesting. She and
Clyde had mutual interests, both
andcaring girls, for the Scout troops, boys ,' ~?
A ~±,§h i±§bt o~ their ~oiden
years in 1972 was a triP to
Europe which, included East and
West Berlin, Amsterdam, Paris and
London. "And I was 80 years old,"
Toni relates. One needs to con-
verse with the two Seniors to re-
ceive a true picture of the ~. '
real'lesson in kistory-making.
Today, Toni maintains her
membership in the League of Women
Vot'ers, takes an active part in the
Mound Park Commission, as well as
the'Mound Historical Society.
These two inquiring minds are
still searching---perhaps their
questions may be answered one day.
"... If you can meet with tri-
umph and disaster and treat those
two impostors just the same" as
Rudyard Kipling so aptly put it,
you then can add the last line of
"If " and, which is more-you'll

(and daughter)! That sums up
the life story of the Cases.

WHAT IS A SENIOR?
Westonka Seniors, God bless you all!
You are the salt of the earth
And the pie in the sky!
You have been tried and tested---
Have known life's highs and lows
You have equated-the balance system---
Found it wanting; found it true.
Brought the picture frame of life
To one full of thrills and chills;
For which one, in retrospect,
Can offer to another quality companionship?
As you delve into the recesses of your mind
Your life mirrors the rainbow
Or storm clouds of your days.
Yours to do with what you wish
Try new ventures---
Improve the old---
Spread happiness to one and all---
Are the stepping stones of your life
Turned into boulders of satisfaction
Or of discontent?
The decision is yours!

Efforts to increase the current maximum federal income tax deduction
of nine cents per mile for volunteer mileage are being made through
the support'of a state Volunteer Mileage Bill to be p~t before'the
legislature in March. The Hennepin County Transportation Coordination
Program is supporting passage of the bill and encourages other organi-
zations to participate and lend their support. Involvement could
range from a letter of support to testifying at the hearing. If you
or your agency would like to get~nV0~ved, contact the program office
at 827-17-21.
The Hennepin County TransportatiOn CO-Ordination Program has completed
the Vehicle Inventory Project in which information was gathered from
oVe'r 100 area churches and 20 corportations. The type of data gathered
'includes number and types of vehciles owned, when vehciles were used,
and if the church/corporation was receptive to sharing vehicles. Some
insights were ascertained as to whether the church/corporation may be
willing to loan their vehicles for special transportation when not in
use. However, no organization was approached for the purpose of ini-
tiating a future committment; only vehicle data was gathered.
This vehicle information is now available and can be obtained by
contacting the program office. The Transportation Coordination Pro-
gram staff is also available to assist in contacting a church or cor-
poration and/or in developing a vehicle agreement.
The 10 Purchase of Service Ride Programs funded throuqh the Transporta-
tion Coordination Program have begun the annual review process leading
to refunding for the 1984/85 program year (July 1, 1984 to June 30,
1985). A subcommittee of the program advisory council will review all
applications for continued funding. As part of this process any
comments regarding.these programs should be made to transportation
program staff at 827-1721.
Gary Kelse¥, director of the Transportation Coordination Program, has
been elected to represent the Metro Mobility Advisory Task Force on
the Metro Mobility Management Policy Committee. This committee sets
Metro Mobility policy and determines the direction of the program.
The addendum to the July 1983 "Transportation:Services for Senior
Citizens in. Hennepin County" was sent out this month to all persons
who had previously received the listing. If you did not receive the
addendum, or wish to obtain one and/or the July 1983 listing, please
contact Kathy Farris at 827-1721. Listings and addendums are available
free of charge, however donations are appreciated to help cover
printing aqd mailing costs. Plans are for an updated version of the
listing in July, 1984.

RECENT COUNCIL ACTIONS (Dec. 274an. 13)
· ' .Racetraclo--A Metropolitan Council review of potential
horseracing track sites has found no basis for rejecting any of
the proposed sites as far as'regional plans are concerned. The
Council said the review does not commit the Council at this
time to any improvements or changes in regional sewers,
airports, parks or transportation facilities. The review was
· sent to the Minnesota Racing Commission. Under ~tate law,
~he commission picks the site.
Lakeville has withdrawn its proposal, leaving seven cities in
contention for the track.'An eighth proposal, from Hastings, is
expected within The next two months.
The Council also forwarded its comments on environmental
assessment worksheets prepared by Shakopee and Blaine con-
cerning proposed racetracks back to those ci~ies. The Council
said the cities should analyze the impact of .surface water
runoff. The Council also asked the cities to reexamine the
tracks' traffic impacts and Blaine was asked to clarify opera-
tJonal interactions between its proposed track and the
Anoka County-Blaine airport.
Waste Disposal-the Council said it Would take whatever
legal action is necessary to obtain access to a candidate sludge
ash disposal site for testing in Carver County. Site property
owners in that county have consistently resisted Council
efforts to gain access to their land,
The on-site testing, which includes soil borings, is part of an
environmental impact statement the Council is preparing on
three candidate sludge ash landfill Sites in Carver and Dakota
Counties. State law requires the Council ~o provide at least one
site for the disposal of sludge ash, which results from the
burning of sewage sludge at sewage treatment plants.
Transportation-The Council issued a request for proposals
to American and international companies to come forward
with proposals to build a self-supporting, fast, climate-
controlled transit connection between the Minneapolis and'
St. Paul downtown skyway systems. Such a link would help
integrate the two downtowns' 20 million square feet of
commercial, office and residential space. Proposals should be
submitted To the Council by March 30, 1984.
Sewers-The Council said plans by the Metropolitan Waste
Control Commission to build a new East Minneapolis inter-
ceptor-a 10-foot diameter, six-mile long deep tunnel sewer--
are consistent with Council plans. The cost of the project is
estimated at $49 million, to be spent This year and next.
The new sewer will provide additional capacity for north
suburban communities of Minneapolis and significantly reduce
the number of wet weather overflows of raw sewage into the
Mississippi River. The interceptor will run from near Marshall
Av. and Mississippi River Blvd. in St. Paul to Marshall St. and
22nd Av. NE. in Minneapolis. It's the biggest and most
expensive sewer interceptor The commission has ever built.
Older People-The Council adopted a plan for a service
delivery system for older people*in Anoka County. The plan is
cee for
-older people~n ~'he county. The Council ha~ adopted similar
plans for Ramsay, Dakota and Hennepin Counties. The
Council decided to ,work on a plan for Scott County next.
Parks--the Council approved a boundary amendment
to Lake Byllesby Regional Park in Dakota County to include
a 67-acre parcel, acquired at a cost of :$150,000. It also
approved a development grant increase of $200,000, for a
new total of $350,000° part of which is earmarked to repair
a dam in the park.
The Council approved a proposal by the.Metropolitan
Parks and Open Space Commission to sponsor a design
contest to select a logo for regional parks and park reserves.
The contest and new logo are intended to increase public
awareness of regional parks.
PUBLIC HEARINGS, PUBLIC MEETINGS
Housing-The Council will hold a public meeting Feb. 9 at

housing goals and policy issues of the housing chapter of the

to land disposal. The recommendation now goes to the MPCA
for its approval.

OFFICE OF THE SECRETARY OF THE TREASURY
WASHINGTON, D.C. 20226
January 9, 1984
REF: 5132-P
Dear Chief Executive:
As I am ~ure you know, President Reagan recently signed legislation re-
authorizing the Revenue Sharing Program for three years at the same funding
level ($4.6 billion each year). The first of four quarterly payments is being
distributed today for Entitlement Period 15 (EP15), which began on October 1,
1983, and will end on September 30, 1984. Revenue Sharing payments are always
made on the fifth working day following the end of the quarter to which they
apply.
Your payment has been made directly to a designated bank or other finan-
cial institution if you have so authorized. Otherwise, your government's pay-
ment is in the form of a check mailed .separately from this letter.
Entitlement Period 15 Amount
Because payments for EP15 were not authorized until the last day of Novem-
ber, insufficient time was available to advise you of the amount of.your total
entitlement for Period 15 prior to this payment. In nearly every case, the
amount of this payment is one-quarter of the total entitlement you can expect
to receive for EP15.
"Recipient Account Statement" forms will be distributed to all governments
in late January. These forms will include information about' the data used to
calculate your government's allocation, any a~Justments from prior periods,
and your EP15 entitlement amount. Should you have any questions after re-
viewing the form, please write or call the Intergovernmental Relations Division
at (202) 634-5200 for assistance.
EP15 Payment Schedule
The remaining scheduled payments for EP15 will be made on April 6, July 9,
and October 5, 1984. Prompt submission, when requested, of required forms,
audit reports, publication affidavits, and other information necessary to
verify the compliance of your government with the requirements of the Act and
the regulations, will ensure that your government,s payments are not delayed.
Correct Mailin~ Address
The Office of Revenue Sharing maintains one address in its files for each
of the 39,000 recipient governments. It is important that it be the current
mailing address. Whenever a change of officials takes place causing a change
in the o~ficial mailing address, this Office should be provided advance notice
of' the new address so that quarterly checks, ORS reports, and other communica-
tions can be sent.to the proper location. Please notify this Office in writing
of any change of address for your government.
2
The Amendments of 1983
The Congress approved the "Local Government Fiscal Assistance Amendments
of 1983" in November. The bill was signed by President Reagan on November 30,
1983. This legislation authorizes continued Kevenue Sharing payments to local
governments for three years, ending September 30, 1986. Payments to State
governments are no longer authorized.
The following summary of key provisions of the Amendments of 1983 ia for
your information, This summary is DOt a substitute fora copy of the amended
Act and revised regulations, which are currently being prepared and will be
available next summer,
"Local Government Entitlements. The Amendments of 1983 do not change the
formula prov%sions by which Revenue Sharing allocations are determined for all
recipient governments.
· Proposed-Use Hearing Eliminated. Recipient governments no longer are
required to advertise and conduct a public meeting at which citizens might sug-
gest possible uses for Revenue Sharing fdhds. Each recipient ~overnment must
continue to hold at least one Revenue Sharing budget hearing before adoption of
a budget.
o Audit Requirement Changed. Governments receiving more than $100,000
in Revenue Sharing funds in a fiscal year are required to have an annual inde-
pendent audit of all financial statements, in accordance with generally
accepted government auditing standards issued by the Comptroller General of
the United States. This requirement applies to the fiscal years of recipient
governments beginning on or after October 1, 1983.
The audit requirement for governments receiving at least $25,000 and no
more than $100,000 in Revenue Sharing funds iq each of three consecutive fiscal
years is not changed. Such governments must ~ave an independent audit of
their financial statements for one of those fiscal years at least once every
third year in accordance with generally accepted government auditing standards
issued by the Comptroller General of the United States.
o Economic Dislocation. A new section has been added to the Act requiring
disregard of any decline in the adjusted taxes of any government ~whose alloca-
tion is reduced substantially as a result of a specific economic dislocation.
Governments experiencing declines in EP15 allocations from their EP14 allocations
of 20 percent or more as a result of a drop in FY1982 adjusted taxes will be
contacted by the Office of Revenue Sharing during 1984 to provide documentation
that a local economic dislocation was responsible for the reduced Revenue
Sharing allocation. Preliminary analysis of available data suggests that only
a few, relatively small governments are likel~ to benefit from this provision.
Generally speaking, the Revenue Sharing Program continues in essentially
the same form for local governments. Some provisions in the Amendments of
1983 will apply only to a few recipients. These provisions will be communi-
cated directly to governments to which they apply.
3
Handicapped Discrimination Regulations Finalized,
On October 17, 1983, the Office of Revenue Sharing published in the Federal
Register final regulations relating to prohibited discrimination against
handicapped persons. These rules, which were previously in interim form, were
issued as a result of a Federal Court ruling in the case of .~aralyzed veterans
of America v. William French Smith et al., Civil Action No. CV 79-1979 WPG
(C.D.Calif. 1983).
General regulations prohibiting discrimination against handicapped persons
have been in effect since April 6, 1977. The regulations issued on October
17, 1983 are identical to those in. effect since August 14, 1981, with the
exception of the administrative requirements. The final administrative require-
ments include.the following important dates:
January 17~ 1984.
Governments receiving Revenue Sharing payments ex-
ceeding $25,000 annually must provide initial notice
to the public og the government's policy on discrimi-
nation against handicapped persons and designate an
employee or office to be responsible for coordiuation
of efforts to comply with regulations.
October 17, 1984. Governments receiving more than $25,000 annually
must adopt a grievance procedure.
October 17~ 1984.
All recipients must complete a self-evaluation of
all programs and activities, policies, and practices
to identify areas .of noncompliance; make nonstructural
changes for accessibility; and prepare a transition
plan if structural changes are needed.
October 17, 1986.
All recipients must complete structural changes for
accessibility, except with respect to transportation
systems for which a special timetable for action/has
been set by the Department of Transportation.
Your government will receive additional information about it% resp°nsibi-
lities under these regulations. If you have questions, please write or call
at (202) 634-5200.
During the coming year, we will be providing you with any changes, new
procedures, new regulations, and other pertinent details about the Revenue
Sharing Program. Please share these communications with others in your govern-
ment so that as many persons as possible have this important information.

TO: Officials of Local Governmental Units Having Territory in the Minnehaha
Creek Watershed District and other Interested Persons
On January 6, 1984 the Minnesota Water Resources Board (Board) increased the
size of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District Board of Managers to seven members.
A copy of the Board's decision is enclosed.
The Board would like to point out again the Changes Chapter 509, Laws of 1982,
made to procedures for appointing managers to metropolitan watershed districts. If
cities and towns having territory within the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District
submit the names of at least three qualified nominees to the county board at least sixty
days in advance of the expiration date of the term of office of a district manager, the
county must appoint one of those nominees. The cities and towns may submit nominees
individually or jointly. If nominees ate not .submitted sixty days in advance of the
expiration of the term, the county commissioners may appoint any eligible individual
residing in the District.
The statutory qualifications for a watershed district manager are defined at
Minnesota Statutes 1982, Section 112.42, Subd. 3. A manager must be a voting resident
of the District. A manager cannot be a public officer of the county, state, or federal
government. However, a soil and water conservation district supervisor may be
appointed as a manager.

In the Matter of Restructuring the Board of
Managers of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed
District (bi.S. Section 112.~2, Subd. 3a)
FINDINGS OF FACT,
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW,
AND ORDER
Section 16 of Chapter 509, Laws of 1982, directed the Minnesota Water Resources
Board (Board) to restructure the boards of managers of the ten metropolitan watershed
districts. When Chapter 509 was enacted, each metropolitan watershed district had a
five-member board of managers. Restructuring would allow the Board to designate up
to four new manager positions on each metropolitan watershed district board. Section
16 further directed the Board to request recommendations from the districts and all
the affected local governmental units~ and stated that "Additional managers, if any,
shall be appointed by the county designated by the Board, to terms designated by the
Board, at the time of and in the manner provided for the next regular appointment of
successors to managers of the district."
Having requested recommendations from the M{nnehaha Creek Watershed District
(District) and all of the affected local governmental units; and having fully considered
all of the recommendations received; the Board makes the following FINDINGS OF
FACT, CONCLUSIONS OF LAW, AND ORDER:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The District was established by Board Order dated lqarch 9, 1967. The establishment
Order directed that the District would be governed by a five-member board of managers.
The District includes portions of Carver and Hennepin Counties. The area of the
District is approximately 18~ square miles distributed among the counties as follows:
Carver - 29 square miles; and Hennepin - 155 square miles. The establishment Order
distributed the power to appoint District managers as follows: Carver - one manager;
and Hennepin - four managers.
2. The District includes territory in two counties, 27 cities, and three to,,,'nships.
3. On April 12, 1983 the Board mailed letters to the chief official of the District and each.
affected county, city, and township. requesting their recommendations on whether the size
of the board of managers should be increased, and if so, the number of managers preferred.
~. On August 12, 1983 the Board reviewed all the recommendations received. The District;
the Cities Of Greenwood, Minnetrista, Tonka. Bay,' and V/ayzata; and the Mayor of l~linnetonka
recommended the size of the board should remain at five managers~ State Representative
Sally Olsen and Elaine McGaughey, both residents of St. Louis Park, recommended the.
size of the board should be increased to nine managers. The Board decided to conduct a
public meeting to give interested part,es an opportunity to provide input on the issue
directly to the Board.
5. On Octobel'.7, 1983 the Board mailed Notice to the chief administrator of the District
and all affected local governmental units of a public meeting on November 3, 1983 for
the purpose of receiving direct input. The Notice encouraged written input from those
unable to attend the meeting. The Notice was published in the State Register and in
local newspapers.
6. The Board conducted a public meeting on the issue on November 3, 1983 beiinning at
1:30 p.m. in Conference Room A of the Capitol Square Building, 550 Cedar Street,
St. Paul, Minnesota. Board members present were Duane Ekman, Ronald Stevens,
Georgia'Holmes, and Glenn Kinneberg. Also present were Catharine Haukedahl, Special
Assistant Attorney General; and Mol Sinn, the Board's Executive Director. Board staff
SUmmarized the written recommendations received in response to the April 12, 1983
request for input. Four additional recommendations to maintain a five-member board were
received in response to the October 7, 1983 Notice from the Cities of Deephaven,
Excelsior, Minnetonka Beach, and Orono. Three additional'recommendations to increase
the size of the board were received from the Cities of Edina and St. Louis Park, and the
Creekside Chapter, Izaak Y/alton League.
7. The follo,~ing people were present on November 3, 1983 to provide input on the issue:
David Cochran, District President; Chet Harrison, St. Louis Park City Engineer;
Barbara Gudmundson, Minneapolis resident and former.-District manager; Shirley Taylor,
Edina resident and member of the District's advisory committee; and ]o Ellen Hurt,
Orono resident and Medina Zoning and Planning Administrator. David Cochran summarized
the contents of a written statement he submitted to the Board on behalf of the District.
He believed the five-member board had an excellent record of responsiveness and
-2-
cooperation with local units and citizens. He emphasized that a fundamental principle of
the Watershed Act ~,,as to manage water on a total watershed basis, not on the basis of
political boundaries or parochial- interests. Chet Harrison believed nine managers would
be preferable, given the size and responsibilities of the District, and would provide
broader-based input into District decisions. He requested the Board to allow an additional
30 days for submission of further written input on the issue. Barbara Gudmundson believed
four additional managers would lend diversity to the board and provide for broader repre-
sentation of various District interests. She believed the communities downstream of
Gray's Bay Dam were under-represented, based on population and tax base. Shirley
Taylor believed a larger board would better meet the needs of District residents. ]o
Ellen Hurt recommended the number of managers should not be increased.
The Board agreed to accept further written input on the issue through December 2,
1983.
8. After the public meeting, additional written recommendations to leave the number of
managers at five were received from E.F. Robb, Ir., HennepinCounty Commissioner;'
Lawrence Kelley, St. Louis Park resident and former District manager; Donald Ringham,
Minneapolis resident and former District manager; ]ames Russell, Minneapolis resident
and former District manager; and Staie Representative Gerald Knickerbocker. Additional
recommendations to increase the size of the board to nine managers were received from
State Representative Phyllis McQuaid, A1 I senberg, George MacDonald, and Thomas
Murphy, all St. Louis Park residents. A letter also was received from Donald Fraser,
Mayor of Minneapolis, supporting an increase in the'number of managers.
9. The main arguments made in favor of maintaining a five-member board were that:
The District has a good record of responsiveness and
cooperation with cities and citizens;
Current managers are well-distributed geographically;
A larger board would result in more parochialism, make
decision-making more difficult, create higher administrative
costs, and would not provide each affected community with
direct representation; and
A majority of the local governmental units do not support
an increase.
10. The main arguments made in favor of expanding the board of managers ~,,ere that:
The current five-member board favors the interests of
the communities bordering Lake Minnetonka;
Communities bordering Minnehaha Creek are under-
represented and the concerns of citizens interested in
creek values have not been adequately addressed by the
District;
--3--
The District contains the largest population of any watershed
district in the state; and
The intent of the legislation requiring restructuring was
to address the issues of responsiveness and geographical
representation that are of serious concern to many
residents of the District.
11. There is strong concern in the District that the current five-member board does not
provide adequate representation for the broad range of interests in the District. There
is a perception among a number of residents that an expanded board would be more
responsive .and better able to equitably balance the various interests in the District
when making decisions on water management issues.
12. An increase in the number of managers would provide for broader representation on
the board; would provide an ·opportunity to address the issue of geographical distribution
of managers; 'and would help resolve certain local concerns, that if left unresolved, could
hinder effective water management in the District.
13. The addition of two managers would be adequate to provide for broader representation
and improved geographical distribution of managers.
1~. The power to appoint both new managers should be given to Hennepin County because
1) it contains approximately 8~% of the area of the District and about 99% of the population
and tax base; and 2) the concern expressed over the issues of representation and geographic
distribution of managers came solely from Hennepin County communities and residents.
CONCLUSIONS OF LAW
15. The Board has the authority to increase the number of managers of the District from
five up to a maximum of nine under Minnesota Statutes 1982, Section 112.&2, Subd. 3a.
16. An increase in the number of managers of the District to seven would be in the public
welfare and public interest, and would allow the District to better serve the purposes for
which it was established.

17. The number of managers of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District shall be increased
to seven.
18. The two additional managers shall be appointed by the Hennepin County Board of

Dear Mayor Polston:
In October of 1982 and January of 1983, search warrants were executed
by the Minnesota Crime Bureau in Mound, Minnesota, during the investi-
gation of Marjorie Caldwel! Hagen. During both of those warrants,
personne! from the Mound Police Department assisted the Crime Bureau
in the successfu! gathering of evidence necessary for prosecution.
I want to take this opportunity to convey our sincere appreciation
for this cooperation and the professionalism exhibited by your officers
during the execution of those warrants. I specifically wanted to
thank Detective Bill Hudson for his work with Agents Shannon and Perron
throughout the Hagen investigation.

The Bond Buyer's lndex of yields on 20-year g. o. bonds dropped from 10.04% on December 16th to
9.60% on January lB. lhis remarkable improvement may be the result of curbs on massive marketings
of private purpose, tax exempt bonds. The known tax exempt market, which for many years only
financed public public purposes, grew from'S35.6 billion in lglO to over $125 billion in lg82, and
uncounted billions of private purpose tax exempt financings show in none of the statistics. In 1960
the total tax exempt volume was less than SB billion. The volume of tax exempt offerings has grown
at an exponential rate threatening to swamp the market and it has caused much higher interest
rates.
Some lament any federal intrusion on the power to exempt private borrowings from federal taxation,
but a reduced volume will lower both the extremely high tax exempt interest rates and conventional
(taxable) rates. So it might well be that the limits will be a greater benefit to business and
housing than tax exemption itself.
Some in the underwriting fraternity are concerned that this loss will adversely affect their
business, as though tax exemption is the sole reason for their being. It ought to be apparent,
however, that businesses, including the housing industry, will need financing with or without tax
exemption.
In September we sent a special notice of our computer capability to analyze the ne__t cost of any tax
levy for Minnesota home and farm owners, deducting state paid credits and income adj. usted property
tax refunds. We have had a significant number of assignments to run these numbers, and to good
effect. Therefore, we enclose another copy of that notice to keep this capability before you. If
you do not have this analysis, you cannot fully inform taxpayers of the true net cost of such
proposals. This knowledge does significantly improve voter understanding and approvals.
We have now completed a number of tax and aid anticipation financings using the risk free reverse
repo (U. S. Government obligations) investment vehicle which enhances yields (or reduces borrowing
costs) by about $10,000 for each $1 million borrowed and invested. If your consultant is not using
it, you are losing money, whatever the consultant's fee.
If fact, there is a grave risk in. seeking the lowest paid consultant. One does not seek out the
cheapest surgeon or lawyer to handle an important case. You employ them on the basis of
qualifications and the results expected. This should also be true of a financial advisor charged
with executing a large and complex financing.
With warmest personal regards, we are
Very t~uly yours,~
