FUBLIC HEARING: AMENDMENT TO ZONING O.RDINANC~ m~ ~ ESTABLISH A PLANNED COMMERCIAL/II~USTRIAL DEVELOPMENT AREA The ~!ty Manager explmined that the preparation of this ordinance amendment was initiated because of the item that follows on the Agenda, a request from Mr.' Fritz Widmer to amend the 5-2 Zoning District to permit mini-storage facilities as a conditional use in the B2 District. The Staff prepared an ordinance setting up a Commercial/Industrial Planned Development Areas within all the B districts rather than ~mending the ordinance t~ include ministorage in the B-2 District because a PDA potentially permits tighter control of such uses compared to simply amending the B2 conditional uses. After discussing the ordinance draft, the Planning Cc~nmission decided to recon~nend that such an ordinance only be valid for the B2 zone and the uses should be restricted only to those now applicable to the B-2 zone with the addition of mini-storage facilities. The question now becomes should the Council amend the ordinance permitting planned commercial facilities (a variety of land uses within a variety of co~%mercial and industrial zones or amend the present 5-2 Zoning District adding mini-storage as a conditional use. The Mayor opened the public hearing and asked for any comments for or against the proposed ordinance amendment for a PDA. Rod MacChartes, owner of property next to Widmers, stated that he is in favor of the mmendment to allow mini-storage. ?ne Mayor closed the public hearing.

The City Planner stated, that the purpose is to provide a method by which parcels of land in the B-2 Zone,' General Business District having unusual building charac- teristics due to subsoil conditions, topographic conditions, elevation of water table, unique environmental considerations, or because of the parcel's unusual shape or location in relationship to lakes, trees or other natural resources requires more unique and controlled platting and development techniques to protect and promote the quality of life in the City. The Council discussed limiting at'PCA to only the B-2 District.

The City ordinance in a B-2 Couneilmember Peterson moved and Peterson seconded the following: ORDINANCE ~454 AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 26.630.3 OF THE CITY CODE PROVIDING FOR MINILSTORAGE FACILITIES 'AS A CONDITIONAL USE Council discussion use; allowing or district. followed on whe{her mini-storage would be the highest not allowing metal buildings and consistency in this The vote was 3 in favor with Charon and'Paulsen' votihg nay.

CITY OF MOUND Mound, Minnesota CASE NO. 83-258 · Planning-Commission Agenda of October 24, 1983: Boar. d of Appeals Case No. 83-258 Location: Woodcrest of Mound, 3rd Addn. Legal Desc.: Lots 1 - 5, Block 1; Lot 4, Block 2; Lots 1 and 2, Block 3; Lot 3, Block 4; all in Woodcrest of Mound 3rd Addition Request: l0 Foot Front Yard Setback Variance Zoning Dist~. R-! Applicant: Schlee Builders, Inc. Russ Fierst 3140 Harbor Lane North Plymouth, MN 55441 Phone: 559-2200 The applicant, Mf~ Fierst, has attached to my comments his explanation for the requested l'Ofoot variance for 9 lots as described. He has provided one set of up-to-date surveys of the lots described in his request with existing and proposed yard grades. He has provided (12) copies of the City approved grading plans for the subdivision,'the plat copies and a signed petition of neighbors' approval to his request. The developer had an approved grading plan with the City which was not adhered to before the property was forfeited back to the financial institutibn. Before for- feiture, Deerwood Drive was installed with utilities. The lots, 1 - 5, Block 1, were undercut and a portion leveled with some of the fill removed' & placed for road purposes and on the south side of the road, Lots 1 and 2, Block 3 and Lot 4, Block 2. In doing so, the developer left a steep hill to the south and filled -' the area to the north with tw° ridges, one at about the 30 foot setback line and on'e at the approximate boundary of the wetland. The foundation area of the pro- posed building site has not been determined to be suitable for placing a structure, as it possibly was not a controlled compaction of the filled foundation area. I would like the Planning Commission to note that Paragraph (2).does state that the .building contractor would like to minimize their soil corrections. Lot 3, Block 4, off of Setter Circle has a large drainage ditch. The ditch was dug as a temporary drainage way for the area until the permanent culvert and catch basins were installed.. Outlot A is drained north by storm sewer to Lake Langdon. The permanent system'is installed and functioning. The temporary drainageway can now be filled and graded. Comments: The main questions before the Commission are: Does the City want to have the building contractor adhere to the original grading plans? Or, does the City want to allow some grading modification, but not grant the variance? And/or, does the City want to modify the grading by granting the variances as requested? Of the lots remaining in the Woodcrest Additions, there are others with similar situations. Recommend: The Staff recommends denial of the request as it is not of good planning practice. However, I would also recommend a modification in the approved grading plan on file with the City for Lots 1-5, Block 1; Lot 4, Block 2; and.Lots 1 and 2, Block 3. The revised grading to be approved by the City Engineer with slope reten- sion plans for any slope greater than 1:3 ratio. Jan Bertrand REALIOR' TELEPHONE 559.-2200 October 5, 1983 City of Mound 5341Maywood Rd. Mound, MN 55364 RE: Lot Variances - 20' set back Lots 1 - 5, Block 1, Woodcrest of Mound 3rd addition Lot 4, Block 2, Woodcrest of Mound 3rd addition LoYs 1 & 2, Block 3, Woodcrest of Mound 3rd addition Lot 3, Block 4, Woodcrest of Mound 3rd addition · Dear City of Mound: I am requesting lot variances on the above mentioned lots for the following reasons: Lots 1 - 5, Block 1 have a large, steep bank on the rear of the property. The land contours were changed from the proposed grading plan, which was approved on the final plat. 'Now, if a 26 x 42 home is placed on those lots, with the current 30' set back, the home is right at the bottom of the steep bank. This in our mind creates future drainage p'roblems. With a 20'set back from the street, we will be able to control that problem. Also, behind Lots 1 & 2, Block 1, is a ponding'area that needs some special attention in keeping'the water out of the future home's basements. By having the 20' set back from the street, we will be far enough from the pond to be able to control the natural drainage to'that pond. Also with the vari- ance, the future homeowner's will be able to have a small area that will be usabl'e. Lots 1 & 2, Block 3, and Lot 4, Block 2 are very steep in the rear yard. Wifh a normal 30' set back, a 26 x 42 home is very close to being in the park area. This is very wet and a lot of soil correction~will be needed. With the. Vari'- ances, we could keep the homes out of the wet areas and minimize out soil corrections. Lot 3, Block 4', has a large drainage ditch in the rear of the lot. When a 26 x 42 is put on the lot, with the normal set backs, the rear of the home is right on the edge of the'ditch and drainage pond. ' A 20' set back would allow us to be]O' from the ditch and ponding easement area. Also, it would help us to properly drain off the water run-off. So with the above mgntioned hardships, we feel that a %0' front set back is well warranted. Thank you. Sincerely, SCHLEE BUILDERS, INC. Eugene G~. Schlee, President Case ~.'83'2'58' Front Y~d"~{~a'ck Variance'-°f'lO feet for Yari66S'ilots ss follows: .Lots 1-5, Block 1; Lot 4, Block 2; Lots 1 & 2, Block 3; Lot 3; Block 4; all in Woodcrest of Mound 3rd Addition. Bud Schlee and Russ Fierst were .present. The applicant is requesting street fron't variances for 9 lots in the Woodcrest 3rd Addition due to drainage, soil and topography problems. Soil borings t been taken in two places and in some areas the topography drops 233 feet. The Building Inspector explained that the origina! grading plan for the · development was no~ adhered to -- what was proposed for the lots to the south of Deerwood was not to cut the hill so drastically or what they'have. The developer came in and cut hill leaving a steep hill to the south (topography drops approximately 23 feet) and then used that to level off for the road and took some of dirt and filled the side north of the road. On the north side of. road toward Outlo~ A, there are 2 ridges now; one is at about the edge of the wetlands vegetation and the other is at where the proposed setback line was. (Deerwood sites) Off of Setter Circle on Lot 3, Block 4, there is a drainage easement marked on the north portion of that to Westedge. A large ditch was dug as a tempo- rary drainage way to back part of lot; now i.a' permanent culvert and'catch bas~'~nstalled to .handle drainage from Outlot A north to Lake Langdon ~nd the temporary ditch is not required. Chairman questioned type of structures'being proposed.fo~ various lots. Fierst thought. Lot 1-5,'Block 1 on Deerwood would Probably be'tuckunders; one on Setter might'be split entry with attached garage, or a rambler;.the houses on north side of Deerwood would probably be split entry. Fierst stated that they are finding out there is a lot of problems with some of the lots; some have drainage problems, some soil problems, some fill. The original developer sold the good lots and the ones that are left have prob. lems. Discuss'[dm cont}nued. Byrnes'suggested that Planning Commission do these in three parts: I). Setter Circle lot, 2) Area south of Deerw0od and 3)'Area north of Deerwood 1) Setter Circle lot - discussed that temporary ditch could be filled; would Still drain'due to elevations. Michael questioned "if you fill Jn ditch, presuming drainage would be okay, you would not. need a variance, would you?" He feels that if we .could save trees and not'have to .give variance, be better off in the long run. Fierst stated trees would be lost anyway with driveway, etc. and variance to keep drainage away from the house would be better. Discussed. Byrnes moved and Jensen seconded a motion to deny a variance on Lot 3, Block 4 (Setter Circle lot). The vote was unanimously in favor of ~he denial. 3) Discussed the lots north of Deerwood with the two ridges i~ them (Lots 1 and 2, Block 3 and Lot 4, Block 2). Lots could have more fill - original proposal was to bring back of property to 941~'~V~ould take a lot more work and soil compaction. Byrnes asked if City Engineer has looked at lots to see about feasibility of filling. Discussed whether fill put in was in a controlled manner. The Building Inspector stated Engineer has been out; the soil borings that were done did not indicate any soil problems at all. Fierst stated that only one house has been built on Deerwood and they feel the whole block should get variances because there would be consistency of house setback lines'-have nice looking street. Lots drop off--whole block should.be pulled forward. Other lots on street were sold by them, but are in worse situation then t~ese lots variances are requested for.. 'Discussed Planning Commission Minutes October 24, 1983 - Page 3 that developer should have been required to have a bond to do grading job rig~t;.developek sold.choice lots and Bank got the problem lots back. Also, covenant was not filed and is unenforceable. Byrhes moved and Jensen seconded a motion to deny variances on Lots 1 and 2, Block'3 and Lot 4, Block 2, Woodcrest 3rd Addition. Discussed. Michael asked "argument for consistency or conformity in neigh- borhood as opposed to vacant land sitting there has no merit--if vote would be Co remain consistent with first one, where are we?" Chairman stated first lot off by itself. The vote on the motion was Byrnes, Jensen and Charon in favor of the denial; Michael and Weiland opposed to the denial. Motion carries 3 to 2. 2) 5 lots in Block .1 - the Building Inspector stated Lot 4 has a 23 foot fall; lots were overcut or undercut,' however you look. at it.. Charon feels there is more of a hardshi.p on these lots - others can be filled; can't do much with a steep slope. Discussed. Anything more than a 3:1 slope has 'to be sodded or seeded. Charon moved and Byrnes seconded a motion.to approve l0 foot variances for Lots~l, 2, 3, 4 and 5, ~lock I, Woodcrest 3rd Addition. The vote was unanimously in favor. Applicant requested that this be considered at the November 1st Council meeting.

The lot is 50 feet by 145 feet. It would be split equally between Mr. & Mrs. Gibson and Mr. & Mrs. Stewart. The parcels for each, after the division, will be 21,025 square feet and 18,125 square feet respectively. The City Zoning Code requires 10,OO0 square feet of lot area in the R-1 zoning district. Recommend: ! would recommend the division as requested'upon the condition that the equally divided Lot 14 be combined with their existing tax parcels, PID #23-I17-24 31 0026 a. nd 0028 as the division is consistent with the City Code. ~z 1. Case No. 83-257 Lot-Split Division Lot 14, Block 11, The Highlands' William & Muriel Stewart and Joe Gibson were present. The Building Inspector reviewed that the request is to split a tax forfeit lot (Lot 14) evenly between the two'nel, ghbors; 25 feet to each one.. The lot is 50 feet wide by 145 feet.deep. She is recommending the division upon the condition that the new parcels be combined.with the exist'lng t~x parcels of the two'.neigh- bors. The division ~is consistent with the City Code. The Chairman questioned how do we pick up sewer unit charges, etc. It was ex- plained that these are built into the purchase price of a tax forfeit parcel and that unit charges basically don't change unless the use of the property changed; i.e. another division would make a new building site. -if at a future date, the use changed; charges would be then levied. Jensen moved and Michael.seconded a motion to recommend approval and include the condition that when property is divided, it be combined with the adjoin- ing parcels as recommended by the Bullding Inspector.

Pursuant to the Zoning Code, Section 23.403 requires frontage on an improved public right-of-way. Mr. Wang has a private driveway easement to provide access to his property. His 1978 survey indicates a lot width to Wilshlre Blvd. of 20 feet, instead of 40 feet required in the R-2 zoning district. His application, however, does not indicate the ownership of part of Lot 98, Phelps Island Park, 1st Division. The sewer is run on an easement at the north (lakeside) and the waterma~n is run to the south of the property. The owner has to locate underground utilities before placing the foundation. The abutting neighbors have been notified, Recommend: Staff recommends approving the variance request conditioned upon granting the city a 15 to 20 foot easement for future road purposes as per City Engineer's recommendation.

It has been almost a year since mediation became available as an alternative to court for juveniles committing minor offenses in your community. Since that time, seventy cases have been successfully mediated with settlements involving appologies, behavior change and restitution. Follow-up, which is now'complete on the first fifty cases, shows an extraordinarily high level of compliance with mediated agreements. The enclosed brochure describes the program in greater detail. The program was established on the premise that juvenile crime is essentially a community problem. Children do not go far from home to get into trouble. Since those who live and work in the community are the most concerned abouth the problem, we designed the program to promote maximum community involvement. Trained community members serve as mediators and Advisory Board members. Recently the Advisory Board completed its program plan for the coming year. According to that plan, the Community Mediation Center will expand its services to include mediation of a wide range of neighborhood disputes--noisy neighbors, barking dogs, harrassment-- beginning early next year. This expansion plan includes broadening representation on the Advisory Board for increased community participation. As mayor of Mound, we would like to invite you to appoint a Mound resident to the Advisory Board of the Community Mediation Center. The Advisory Board meets monthly and makes planning and development decisions for the program. I would appreciate an opportunity to discuss the program and your appointment to the Advisory Board. Please call me at your earliest convenience. Sincerely, Joline Gitis, Administrator Community Programs Enclosure U CITY Of MOUND MOUND, MINNESOTA 55364 (612) 472-1155 October 14, 1983 TO: CITY COUNCIL FROM: CITY MANAGER Enclosed is an article regarding plant closing strategies which I think is one of the best I've read. After reading it, the strategy that Tonka is following comes clear and it really makes me angry. It's a strategy that put Tonka first, before the community, before its workers and for the short term before its stockholders. The whole story needs to be recorded someday. JE:fc enc. 'Speci ] Report William L. Bate, Jn Canada's good example with' displaced workers Experience shows that joint labor and management. ommittees prevent trauma when plants shut down. In numbers of towns across ~he United States displaced workers are standing in }ob lines, we]fare lines, amd unemployment insurance lin~s. Because many oft. hem received no warning of their plants' .closing down, they and the tow'ns they five in are unprepored for the loss of employ- ment. The emotional and e, conomic shock these workers.and towns suffer is great. Up north in Canada, the 16t of the displaced workeris much better. Bezause bylaw a company has to give advanc~ notice when it closes a plant, 'Canada's Manpower Consultative Ser- vic~ has time to put a remedial plan in motion. In an advisory capacity, the service he]ps the company, union, and workers devise and operate a ioint effort to place workers in other jobs before the gates close. When n~cessary, the sen,ice helps workers move to w,bere iobs are, retrains them, offers them fob search assistance, and sup- plies major benefits such as health insurance during the transition period.

Bob Smit.~ who had been a fire builder in the Seiberling plant outside Akaon before it closed two years ago, told a N. ew York Times reporter o~ some of the side effects o~ plant closings on people in ~ his hometown: "I'd say 80% of the I worked with still aren't ~4ork- guys ing.

Canada provides a model Despite the high degree of suffering that plant closings cause, in almost all major layoffs in th/s country employees are 1.~rgely on their own wken it comes to finding new jobs.' This is not the case across our northern border. In Canada, companies, unions, and\mrkers facing factory closings un c~ll the Manpower Consultative Ser- vice [MCSL part of Employment and Immigration Cznada, for help. The ser- vice works ver, e simpl); effectively, '~'nd The Disston stor): In July !979, Disston Canada decided to close its Aaron, Ontario plant and consoli- date .manutncruring at its Montreal :itc.

The company used. its networks among the loom business community, its suppli. ers, and its customers. The union con- tributed its knowledge of what shops were hiring in the inc~tustr): "/"be job ser- vice had its job orders and area labor market information to draw on. The chairman had knowledge ot and con- tacts with other employers. Over theZ0 years of experi- ence they've had with this approach, the Canadians have found that com- bined efforts like thi~, dSrectly involv- ing the company and the union, who know these workers best, prove far more productive in uncovering jobs than do the impersonal and orca- worked iob service offices." Disston Canada gave work- ~rs paid time off to. go on iob intervie.ws. ' and to talk to interested employers who made visits to see workers on the job. The company also made sum that employees who accepted job offers before theb separation did not lose their severance pay. In his research into the e~fects on both workers and man- agers of a Pit. tsburgh Plate Glass paint plant closing in Detroit back in 1963, E~. Sidney Cobb discovered the impor- ' fence of this last point. Anyone who wants to understand viscerally what a plant shutdown means to the people affected and to learn mote about Cobb's work should teed Alfred S]ote's Termination: The Closing at Baker" P]ant. Cobb found that making sever- anc'e pay conditional on a worker's remaining until a plant closes deters initiative to ~eek a iob be{ot.e the axe falls. The best jobs generally go to those who get into the iob market first?. The committee chairman's iob at the Disston closing was to pre- side at meetings and see that assign- ments were made and carried out, to · engage intensively in job development- and encouzage other members to do so as well, and to keep records of the peo- ple placed. Jack Hemmings wound down the committee when it com- pleted its iob and made a final report specifying what had happened to every laid-off worker. Such detailed reporting offers a refreshing contrast to what happens in the United States. As a gen- era] rule here, no one knows what has happened to the displaced people-not the compan3; not the union, not the employment service, not anyone. Nor. does anyone appear to ca~e enough to find out. In 1980, plant manager C.J. Stone at U.S. SteePs Torrance, Cal~or- nia site made many'efforts to outplace steelworkers when that mill closed, leaving 600 iobless. But management had no idea how eHective its eHorts were. As on~ top manager explained, 'qYe must assume they've gotten when they stop coming to the person- nel office to sign up for supplemental unemplo)unen t benefits:' In Canada, workers can also receive retraining and 50%' of their moving expenses, which apply even to iobs in the same company. The MCS representative comaects workers whose skill~ do not match iob market demands with re~raLrdng programs that the provincial govern~.ent offers. The Canadian' emphasis is on h'elping workers f'md new }obs as expeditiously as possible, not on subsi- dizing extended unemployment. On this side of the border, we depend main]), on unemployment insurance and supplemental unemployment ben- efits. Essential as they are for Lncome maintenance, these programs are sim- ply not designed or adequately funded to cope with the needs of workers and their families hit by plant closings and permanent layoffs. They were meant to tide over workers planning to return to exis:in§iobs after temporary layoffs. · Two oth:r points struck me when o]:serving the Disston experi- ence. First, the advance notice of sev- elal months that provincial law r=.quires gives the commi~te, e.time to implement an effective outplacement program. Second, the MCS program provides a prompt, responsive, uncom- plicated, ~nd voluntary format that pools everyone's, efforts in this direc- tlon and ensures that the limited time available is used well Disston's experience is not. an isolated case. A.L. Cobb, who, with Allan Jacques, oversees the MCS pro- ~'-.m for Employrnent and Immigra- tion Can-~da, spoke in January 1981 to a plant closings seminar cosponsored by :hz U.S. Department of Labor and the ',~rhit~ House. Cobb reported that in 1~0 :]one, 365 company and worker groups signed agreements simJ- ]:r to Disston's and the Stee]workers' that a~fected 200,000 workers. The ~.~cnpower A,diustment Committees ~ sted an average of one year. Two- ::;i~c;s of the workers participating cb~i,".ed almost immediate em- plo)'mcnt. Harvard Business Review Althoug~h the typical closing involves between S00 and 600 employ- ees, the Canadians have had experience with large layoffs as well. A.L. Cobb brought with him to the plant closings seminar a UAW-Ford-MCS team. They reported their experience of using the Manpower Adiustment Committee approach in a maior layoff of 2,000 workers at Ford Canada's OakviBe, Ontario plant in May 1980. Their pro- gram was similar to Disston's except that it set up separate.committees for hourly and salaried employees, which met for the eight months it took to complete their mission. Despite a seri- ous downturn in the economy, of those seeking help, 94% received jobs. The company and the federal and the pro- vincial governments split the $60,000 cost of the program. The diversity of industry in the Hamilton-Toronto labor market area was a big contributor to the committee's success. The'company and the union ~greed on five reasons for starting the program: 1 To give employees assistance in securing alternative employment. 3_ To allay the fears of employ- ees still at work by demonstrating that they could expect positive assistance if fiarther layoffs became neces, saty. 3 To relieve the impact of m~ss unemployment on the community. 4 To pro}ecl a favorable image to the Public by accepting responsibil- ity for assisting employees. 5 To lessen the drain on sup- plemental unemployment benefits. The government gave two reasons for its involvement: 1 To relieve serious Unempl°y- menr in the area. 2 To lessen unemployment insurance costs by providing alterna- tive employment." Other countries' experience. Canada is not alone. Western European countries and Japan all have standard procedures for handling plant closings and permanent layoHs that are light- years ahead of the United States in their concern ~or the affected workers and communities. In 1978, a group o~ us rom the automakers', stee}workers', and machinists' unions, the U.S. De- partment o{ Labor, and the U.S. Depart- merit of Commerce visited Sweden, . Germany, and England to see such programs'LL~sthand. The emphasis in these coun. tries' programs is also on reemploy- ment and. retraining rather than on - ... providing financial support in unem- ployment. The most comprehensive :. outplacement efforts go on in Sweden, where by law a company must give advance notice of a dosing, the amount of time ahead depending on the size of the closing or layoff. With strong com- pany, union, and co~unity support, . the Regional Labor Market Board takes primary responsibility for outplace- ment. Immediately after the company announces the expected clos~g, the board establishes iOb-finding centers at the facility that link up with a n~tion- wide' computerized fob vacancy identi- · fication system. Companies across the court-- try are req~red to list all vacancies with the National Labor Market Board, a government agency largely mn by a joint Iabor-management board of direc- tors. Federal funds for moving and retraining are available, as are indus-. trial development subsidies for We saw h6w all this works. Vikmanshyttan, a small steel-r~king village in central Sweden. In 1976, ' Stora Kopparber~ the only employer'.in Vikmanshyttan, closed its 500-year-old steel mill. The Regional Labor Market Board, the company, the union, and the community leaders a~teed on a plan. Through intensive industrial deve!op- ment efforts, the coalition recruited nine small companies to locate in former mill buildings. One was a small business that was to produce a new product developed by former steelworkers. With assistance from · Labor Market Board subsidies, the companies provided new iobs for Stora% ~*0 workers. The city built roads to serve the new plants. 'i During the transition time, Stora Kopparberg employed the work- ers to rehabilitate the old mill struc- tures for their new users and to rebuild the road system. During the same time, some workers attended a nearby Regional Labor Market Board voca- tional training center to acquire ne, skills, and some worked on loan for ~ while for the forestrf agency. Although the workers were still employed by IContinued on page 12] 12 Store Kopparberg, the 'bor Market Board subsidized 7S% of.their wages tm the to three-year l triod this ~e-saving effort took. ~ Go--any also, ~c law requires · ~aming. ~e~ore h ~n close a pl~t, ~ company and its works co~cil must draw up and a~ee on a "social pl~" ~at spells out a course of action Jot evew affected worker. ~or some, the pl~ may ~volve simple outplacement ~ simfia~ jobs. ~or others;it may m~n rewaining, h may even m~n mov~g to another c~/.

Although it is far less com- prehensive than dither the Swedish or the Ged-Than plan, the Canadian approach should prove more acceptable to Americans. Except for the required advance notice, it is completely volun- taD: It u~es the cooperative labor- management committee approach with which we have extensive experi- ence in this country: It depends far less on government and more on the pri- vate sector, and it is far ]ess costly.' What are the chances of replicating a simple, effective system like Canada's in the United States.~ Through legislation, not good. Plant closing legislation has become a bitter bone of contention in both Congxess and state legislatures. Management . and hbo-, have lined up on opposite sides of the barricades. This develop- ment is a sure precursor to stalemate. Senator Orrin Ha=ch of Utah, chairman of the Senate Committee on Labor and Euman Resources, has introduced a bill on worker readjustment in plant closings - S.2650- that incorporates parts of the Canadian approach, includ- ing an ingenious provision for volun- tm'y advance notice, hut knowledge- able observers give it little chance of · p~ssins. The job Training and Part- nership Act, however, which addresses v par~ of the problem, by authorizing in Ha~'ard Business Review Title III limited funds tot retraining displaced workers, hhs passed and is scheduled to into etfect on October 1. It authorizes limited funds for job- search training, job clubs, and skill training. These are to be administered locally by managemem-dominated pri- vate industry councils, or PICs. So companies and unions desiring to estabhsh joint outplacement commit- tees now have a source of matching bands previously unavailable. It is a new tool to work with, but the initia- tive to use it is still theirs. Legislative aid or the lack of it should not be an excuse, however, ~or progressively minded managements &nd unions not to improve on today's crude, ierry-buih, cut-and-run plant- closing practices. Companies like Dana Corpora tion~ Brown and Williamson, and International Silver offer good examples of how to improve plant dos- · lng. All three participated in the labor Department's january 1981 plant clos- ings se .miner. The unions involved in these cases were the UAW, the Machin- ists, the Bakery and Confectionery Workers, the Rubber Workers, and the Steelworkers. Dana Corporation, one of the nation's leading automotive parts manufacturers, headquartered in Toledo, has come as close to replicating the Canadian model as any U.S.. com- pany. At the seminar a mar/agement- labor team reported on the closing of Dana's Edgerton, Wisconsin factory in 1980. The Da'ne model. With the oil embargo of 1973 and 1974 and the gasoline shortage of 1979, the demand for front axles for vans and trucks evap- orated. Dana decided it had to close the Edgerton plant, a nine-year-old, 900,000-squaredoot facility with .a young productive labor force. In addi- tion to oHering preferential hiring and relocation assistance {which were of little use because 30% of Dana's employees nationwide were then on layoff J, severance pa); supplemental unemployment insurance [though the fund was then just about exhausted}, and extended health insurance [per- quisites all negotiated with the UAWI, Dana developed an outplacement training program and a job search cen- ter. At a previous shutdown at Ecorse, Mic'higan, Dana had used a Detroit consulting firm to handle the closing. At the time several of Dan~'s trainers went through the course as well. At )uly-^u~ust .1983 ., Edgerton, the Dana trainees handled ~e closing themselves through theix "Dana Dni etsit ;°' a ttaininl eente : ~t Dana's Toledo h~dq~e~.

So being ~ble to go into our old plato utilize ~he se~'ices right there was a big help ~o us." Dana also made an a~es- s~ve job development chore. According to ]er~/Ward, Dan~'s industrial tela- ~ions manager, "We were through ]u]y-A~st 1~88 14 the list of employers in Wisconsin, looking ior all of those that would have machine operations similar to ours. We came up with 2,740 in the state of Wisconshn and another 500 in the four northern counties of Illinois. We mailed letters to 3,250 employers, including a list of all the people, listed by various skills and categories, who. had gone on our job search program. There was a total of 15 pages in that letter. The response was astounding, and the requests were tremendous. It proved again that on~y about 30% of available jobs are listed or advertised. I worked through Job Service em- player committees and invited various employers to go through our plant, to s~ that our worker was more qualified than a guy who's putting a nut or a bolt on:' In add/don, for one year follOWing the factory's closing, Dana maintained an office in the area to assist employees with problems and to handle medical claims~ Under Dana's preferential h/ring program, other Dana plants · hkod a number, of employees. If the employees were qualified to do the work, they were eligible for relocation assistance of up to two months' pay. Dana offered other jobs to 29% of hdgerton's ~alaried employees and to 20% of the hourly winkers; Other companies gave ~obs to 112 former Edgerton employees. This reemploy- ment effort is continuing, l:or example, when a small warehouse opened in Fogelsville, Pennsylvania,. the manager determined that Dana people would fill aI1SS jobs. Workers came ~om not only Edger. ton but also Athens, Geor- gia; Havana, Illinois; Toledo, Ohio; and Readin$ Pottstown, and Berwick, Pennsylvania. A survey of the 250 employ- ees who elected to use the job search program indicated that 86% of the houri), and 95% of the salaried employ- ees found jobs; ~8% of the hourly and 59% o[ the salaried employees rook less :hen six months to find work, the b.qance ]ongen But as the recession deepened, not ali kept their jobs- months after the plant closed, only 63% of the hourly and 88% of the sala- ried workers reported still having work. Other exemplar)' shutdown experiences reported at the January, 1981 plant closing seminar were Brown and Williamson in Louisville wi~h the Harvard Business Review Baker, Confectionery & Tobacco Work- ers and M.achinists~ the international Silver Company with the Steelworkers in Meriden, ConnecticuB Empire- Devroit Steel with the Steelworkers in ~orrsm0uth, Ohio; and Lee Tire Ja Goodyear subsidiary] with the Rubber Workers in Conshohocken, Pennsylva- nia. These companies and unions have demonstrated convincingly that, work- ins togethcz, management and labor can help workers and their families w~ather plant closings and speed the uansition to new iobs. Experience teaches A model program drawing on these experiences should focus prima, r- fly on teemploymem in new jobs, with income support to bridge the gap. It should include the best features of Canada's Manpower Consultative Ser- vice plus the U.S. innovations of sell- directed iob search and job clubs. It shOUld also include half-day briefings by community agencies spelling out for a~ccted families the resources their towns provide, such asunemployment insurance, food stamps, and welfare, and how to obtain them. The best model here is the Illinois AFL-CIO;s program that the AFL-CIO's Human Resources Development Institute in Washington has recently repl,!cated and made available nati6nally. In addition to the financial safety net that exists in the master agreement or that should be negotiated when closing is armounced {continua- tion of hospitalization insurance until reemployment should be high on'this listl, a responsible program should include at least the following nine features: I Advance notice. Because leg- islation to provide advance notice has long been stymied in Congress and numerous state legislatures, workers will probably only hear of their plants' shutdowns as a tesuh of collective bar- gaining or enlightened management practice. I first learned about outra- geously mismanaged shutdowns in the anthracite area of Pennsylvania· My instructor was a ha~d coal mine in Coaldale. l was secretary of labor and industry in Governor George Leader's reform c~binet in thc late 1950s, when' a mine management there announc~ on Friday that the followLug Monday the mine would be closed permanentl~ throwing 2,000 miners out o~ ~obs. We rushed a team in to expedite registra- tion for unemployment insurance and iob search, but the total absence o~ notice made any intelligent effort at planning or programming hopeless. Shortly after that, U.S. Steel closed a captive soft coal mine in Fay- time- to arrange with the company fm office space at the mine'head; to cen- tralize state, ~ompany, and union resources for taking unemployment insurance claims; to prepare job devel opment, counseling, testing, and out- placement programs.- Even today, a generation ' later, companies like our Coaldalc anthracite mine often close with no advance notice. Robert McKersic and Robert Aronson, in their excellent study of three plant closings in New" York State, relate how with no advanc~ notice at all the GAl: Corporation reduced its Binghamton operations b~ ' 1,100 workers in 1977.Not only did a this precipitate action re%miry the traumatic effect on the workers, their~ ' families, and the community; it also left no time for planning and imple- menting an orderly outplacement dfort2 - Recognition of the need fot l planning time is nothing new. In theft' classic 1966 book, Strategies for Dis- placed Workers, George Shulm and Arnold Weber described their experi- ence as third-parw hEpers to the Armour Compan); and the Meat Cut(~ rets' Union, representing thousands ~ workers dislocated by the closing of .aa Armour plants throughout the Mid- west. They concluded that six monthst or preferably a year's advance notice was 'a procedural prerequmte for co~ structive action.

As Canoll T~c, labor relations vice president, explained, "This ~adual phase-om has allowed affected employ ets to make required job transition in a more oracr]); l~ss c~otional]y d~sturb- ins marmon h has provided for a stag- g~red i~)ux of new workers into general ~ob markets and thus reduced ~mmunity unemployment burdens ~d minimi:ed competition between workers who once stood side by side. Senior employees had thc option to l~ve ~c comply ~rlicr ~an ~unio~ employees to enhance thci~ chances of finding sui~blc jobs elsewhere/' 2 Joint labor:management out- placement committees. The 20 years of Canadian ex"perimentation with joint committees provides hundreds of cases that U.£. companies and unions can use as examples for setting up similar joint efforts. In nonunion plants the employees can choose the worker members, and as in the case of Dana at ' Edgerton, the committee can arrange fo," employment service participation. As in Canada, the committee's main .role would be to see that everyone requesting outplacement help got it and that before the plant gates closed as many as possible were placed in acceptable jobs. 3 Job search training. Our model committee would take on an added function that the Canadians haven't tried-job search training. Dana at Edgerton :aught this skill, as have increasing numbers of U.S. manu- facturers, such as Lee Tire at Consho- hocken, Firestone at six of its closed Harvard Business Review plants, General Electric at Ontario, Califom!a, and Crucible at Midland, Pcnn$)'Nania. Man%cmcnt~ unions, and workers agree that such training is generally helpful, although the success rate, of course, heavily depends on the labor market. 4 Job clubs. Close on the heels of going through the job search train- ing, a worker should join a job club. ]ob dubs are an exciting innovation in social engineering that Nathan Azrin, in southern Illinois, Albert Cullen and joseph Fischer in Cambridge, Massa- chusetts, and Charles Hoffman in San Diego have pioneered with backing from the U.S. Labor Department's Work .Incentive Program. Few experiences in life are as isolating as looking for a job. The job club helps combat that isolation. It is a place where workers can put into prac- tice the techniques they have learned in job search training. Working together in small groups, reinforcing each other's efforts, they use the buddy system. The job club should be located in a convenient place and equipped with telephones, desks, industrial directories, Yellow Pages, and want ad sections/tom Sunday papers serving n~arby cities and selected growing labor markets. At its Ontario plant, GE converted the recreation center just . across from the plant gate into a retraining and outplacement center and job club. In Midland, Pennsylvania, workers used the baserrient of the Steel- workers' Union Hall, which Crucible had outfitted with surplus partitions. 5 Aggressive job development. job development works best when the company takes the leading role, as. Dana did in Edgerton and Disston and l:ord did in Ontario. The company has contacts with suppliers through its purchasing department, with custom- ers through its salespeople, and with the business community generalh/. A company simply cannot leave this task to state employment services. They lack the access to other employers that a company has, the), have other clien- teles to serve, and despite almost unprecedented demand io'r their ser- vices, the), are losing staff because of state budget cuts. 6 Skill training. Mos~ al. is- placed workers do not undertake train- ]ul¥-A~agust 19113 · ins in a new skill or occupation. One s;udy of a Midwestern plant closure in the 1960s showed that almost two- thirds ot the wor~er~ lalcl o~I x~,ere ins no effort to obuin retraining, although it was c~t free. ~o~et study in 19~ of British steel plant rev~led that only 20% were taking advanuge of ~etr~n. inS. Participation ~as higher mong the youngir anti alt~dy higher skil!e& ~terest in ~mraining app~red to decline with advancing y~m.' At ~e Do~vet ~oject Wa~e Counw, Michigan in 198~, about 25% of the worke~ laid off in plant closings sought and obuined skill training. E~efience indi~tes ~et~a~ing will prg~de an inswer for only a minohw of the counw's Bis- placed workers. · For that minofi~ there are some resources available now that we have nm had before. In addition to 50% matching ~ds in Title m of the Job Train,s and Developm~t Act, ~;hi~ partici~ting sums wiB some- ho~ have to find money to match, them are ~ovafive tetraimg pr~ ~ams emoting ~ mllective bargain- ~g. The largest is the UAW-Ford Employee Dex, dopment and ~ain~g Pro,am, which provides not only retraining for active employees but' also retracing, joNs~rch, and plaCe- ment assiSunce fo~ laid-off em It is now being used to issist Ford workers laid off in Ford's Milpitas, ifomia and Sheffgeld, Mabama plant Closings.

For almost a yea~ afte~ the Edgerton plant closed, Dana kept ~] skeleton personnel staff to provide counseling, job development, and otbJ assistance to laid-off workers. To fill these roles Gerald Newmin, presiden! of International Silver, recruited Rober~ Treloar, a talented ~alesman ~ IContinued on page 20] :t 2O himself a casualty'of the closing. Tre- ]oar received his training in outplace- ment skills thxough a consulting service. $ Third parties. Most of the companies in our sample got help bom outside consultants. When a shutdown occurs, it is often a first for the com- pany, the union, and the community. Someone who has been through it several times before can be a gre~t help. Managements report that the savings in unemplo)~ent insurance ~xes and suppJemehtary unemployment bene- fits offset th~ casts many times over. When Empire-Detroit Steel closed its sates, the Portsmouth, Ohio CETA, under Dick Bussa, was the cata- lyst for organizing an innovative migration effort. David Brown and Meredith Associates helped Imerna- tional Silver. Lee Tire used Tom Jack- Harvard Business Review son's Career Development Team ~om New York. " 9 Industrial development. The January 1981 co~erees reported little about their efforts to help the com-. munities they lek replace the lost iobs. Dana did report that it had sold its plant to the C~terpilla~ Tractor Com- pany, which planned to employ $00 people by 1983. Because of the reces- sion, plans have been slow to develop. Caterpillar now employs 49 in Edger-. ton; $0 of these new jobs have gone to former Dana workers. With little thought for the effect on the community or former employees, companies leaving a com- munity, usually turn over their redun- dant plants to their corporate indus-. trial real estate people or to an industrial zealtor to dispos& of for 'top dollar. I recall two cases in which state ]uly-A~ffust 1993 and federal agencies intervened to tilt the s. cales in the public interest direc- tion and companies proved coopera- tive. In ] 960, when Ford closed its c' ' Chester, Pennsylvania factory, it h~ two purchase offers. The higher bid was ~rom ~cott Paper, which wanted to use the plant fo~ warehousing, and the Other was bom Reynolds Metals, which wanted to use it for manu- {acturing. · · At the suggestion o{ Gover- nor David L~wmnce, I asked Ford's management i~ there was a~y way thatl it could keep the plant in manufactur- ing because of the lasge number of iol~. that that would create. Ford agreed to · offer Reynolds the opportumty to match the klgher bid, which Keynolds~ promptly took.

If the CanacLians can, why can't we? q'here is no mystery abou'c what n~eds to be done when plants close: help displaced workers find new jobs. Existing management presenting new products or services, using the same workers with new skills, is one alternative. A new management, pro- ducing thc same product with thc same labor force and skill, is another. Worker ownership is a third. Where the plant carmot be sav6d, a joint labor- management comxnhtee with an cffec- five outsider as chairman and the mission of helping find new jobs {or their displaced workcr~ bc~urc thc fac- tory doors shut is still another. No one model will fit egcry situation, just aS no one shoe will fit every foot. But men of goodwill ~rom both management and ~ion- combining their knowl.edge of people and labor markets-can, in~ spirit of cooperation rather t2~an confrontation° design and implement programs tO fill the fearful, wasteful, and senseless vac- uum that workers face today. From Ontario, CMifornia to Ontario, Canada, from Wisconsin on the Great Lakes to Ahbama on the Gulf of Mexico, there is a wealth of experience to draw on. Concerned pub- lic officials can act as c~talysts, but fl an effective iob is to be done, manage- ments and unions of the plants closing down must take the lead.

July-August 1993 Re[exences ~w dis~bo:~ by ~ ?J~ ~s: What PUBLIC HEARING NOTICE Metropolitan Waste Control Commission Proposed. Maple Plain Interceptor This Hearing is being conducted by the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission to solicit public testimony on the proposed Maple Plain Interceptor which is part of the overall regional wastewater treatment system of the Metropolitan Area. The Maple Plain Interceptor is part of the overall plan prepared under Section 201 of the Federal Water Pollution Control Act as amended. The Hearing will be conducted as follows: Date: Thursday, Time: 7:30 P.M. Place: November 17, 1983 Maple Plain City Hall Maple Plain, MN 55359~ 612-479-1123 This presentation will include dissertations on the technical, environmental, and financial aspects of the proposed plan. DESCRIPTION OF THE MAPLE PLAIN INTERCEPTOR The existin~ wastewater treatment plant ~n Maple Plain has a capacity of 0.22 million gallons/day (mgd) for a present tributary population of about 2,200. Significant rates of clear water enter into the Maple Plain sewer system in the spring during heavy rains and cause the treatment plant to be hydraulically overloaded. The increase in projected growth by year 2020, (650 additional people) plus the estimated flow indicates that a peak hourly flow of 950 gpm must be treated at or conveyed from the Maple Plain plant. The present plant can only treat 560 gpm because of limited raw sewage pump capacity. In addition to the hydraulic overload, there is also concern over phosphorus discharges to the Jennings. Bay portion of Lake Minnetonka. Alternatives were evaluated which would either expand the plant and include phosphorous removal facilities or phase the plant out and eliminate discharge.to the lake. The most cost-effective route has been determined to be phase-out of the Maple Plain Wastewater Treatment Plant by construction of an interceptor sewer to Long Lake. The interceptor sewer would consist of 26,000 feet of 10" forcemain, paralleling U.S. Route 12. The forcemain would terminate at the MWCC Pumping Station located in Long Lake. The estimated cost of this project is $1.448 million (1979 dollars ). Interested persons are invited to present their views and comments in person or in writing at the Hearing. Oral comments may be limited to five (5) minutes. Written statements may be mailed to Jean Bergal, Director, Public Information Office, located at the Commission's address, as noted hereinabove. Arrangements for comments may be made in advance by calling Ms. Bergal at 222-8423, extension 175. The Hearing Record will remain open until November 27, 1983. Copies of the project report(s) will be available for inspecti~on at the following locations from October 14, 1983 to November 17, 1983: (1) Metropolitan Waste Control Commission Public Information Office- 8:00 A.M.-5:00 P.M.

At that time, Mr. Klossner's response was not favorable to improving the present two-lane system. He agreed to submit plans for a four-lane system. We all agreed to review them. This has been accomplished~and it is now time to meet as we originally agreed, and discuss the proposed concept designed within our three cities from Hennepin County ~19 and ~15 west to Mound. Please accept this letter as an invitation to meet with us at our City Council Chambers on Wednesday, November 2, 1983 at 7:00 P.M. I have discussed this with some of you attempting to arrange an earlier meeting, but there appears to be many conflicts during the day and other evenings. I do hope this date is satisfactory, if not, please call me at my office, 473-7358 and I will make other arrange- ments. If I do not hear from you, I will plan on November 2, 1983, as stated.

SUBJECT: Jon Elam Chief Bruce Wold ~,bund Police Reserve DATE.,,Oct°bet, 26 , ,,,~983 Jon, I gave you'a copy of a memo showing you the break down of the hours worked by members of the Police Reserve in the month of September. I would like to br'.~ng your attention to a few of the activities worked: Reserve Squad Patrol - These are hours spent on patrol in the City of ~bund. Reserve Officers augment the patrol schedule when a regular patrol officer is scheduled alone during the hours fr6m 6:00'p.m. to 2:00 a.m. The 92 3/4 hours worked represents the equivalent of 3/5 of a patrol officer during the month.· Riding with Regulars - These hours are spent with regular officers on routine patrol. Reserve officers assist in all phases of patrol work in this capacity. ?hello hours worked provides the police department with 2/3 of an officer over the'month's time. Special Duties;-Grandview School - Grandvim~ School suffers from vandalism, usually on weekends, on a random basis. The school admin- istrati6n requested assistance in hopes of catching the persbn(s) committing the vandalism. The reserve officers spent 54½ hours inside Grandview on Friday, Saturday, and Sunday nights over several weekends, attempting to catch a person in the act. The hours worked failed to turn up any suspects. During the budget hearings, I' emphasized the value of the Reserve Officer program.. The hours donated to the City during September is typical of the hours donated each month throughout the year. The reserve organiza- tion allows the Mound Police to Provide many segments of the population services that would be prohibitively expensive if performed by regular officers working overtime.

This situation has, in part, been created by Iow work volumes and a more competitive marketplace in which construction firms do business. How have contractors managed to do work for fewer dollars when salaries, equipment and fuel costs have all been on the rise? The answer is... not very well. Contractors' bids have been lowered by reducing the return usually due them for the use of their equipment. This return is basically the money needed for equipment replacement. Three successive years in this en- vironment has created a tremendous equipment replacement need for contractors to meet. It isthe opinion of many, that when the work volume increases to a point where contrac-. tors can be more selective about the work they bid on as well as the prices they bid, major cost inbreases will occur. While early project planning has always been important, it may prove to be one of the most significant factors influencing bids in 1984. Early projects will likely continue to enjoy the lower bids which have been common the past three years. If the national economic turn around continues and the related work volume increases, the cost of pro- jects in the mid and latter part of the 1984 construction season ~ in the pa§~. Early project initiation and cautious estimating will be key factors in delermining whether or not a parti- cular project will receive the anti- cipated Iow bids of early spring.

South Hopkins, Minnesota 55343 935-3381 1TY-935--6433 October 19, 1983 To Interested Parties Re: Public Meeting on Siting of Transfer Stations and Solid Waste Processing (RDF) Facilities I would like to invite you to the second of a previously-announced series of m~etings on siting the above kinds of facilities, a part of the resource recovery system being deVeloped by Hennepin County. These meetings do not pertain to siting of combustion facilities, sanitary landfills or hazardous waste treatment facilities. The second meeting, on search areas for transfer stations and processing facilities, will be held Wednesday, November 9, 1983 at 7:30 p.m., at the Golden Valley CityHall, 7800 Golden Valley Road, Golden Valley. Tne first meeting focused on the siting process to be used and general siting criteria. The paper enclosed with this letter, titled "Search Areas for Transfer Station and RDF Processing", describes the search areas which have resulted from application of the siting criteria reviewed at the prior meeting. Also enclosed is a paper, titled "Summary of Site Selection Process and Siting Criteria for Transfer Stations and RDF Processing Facilities", which sunm~rizes the process and siting criteria we are using, which were the subject of the first meeting. The overall site-selection process we are using will identify proposed locations for transfer stations and RDF processing plants. This process will become more specific, leading to future meetings on candidate sites, and finally proposed sites based on an economic evaluation of sites identified through the earlier steps. Although the County is not required to oonduct any meetings on this matter, we want to afford communities and interested and affected parties a number of opportunities for input at the various stages of this process. We expect future meetings to be held on December 7 and early //% January. The exact dates and locations will be established as the process progresses. I ask that representatives of groups limit their con~ents to ten (10) minutes, while individuals limit their ~ts to five (5) minutes. Should you have questions before or after the meetings, contact Mr. Warren Porter, Project Manager, at 935-3381, extension 235. Written comments may be submitted either before or after the meeting, and maybe considered as long as they are received in this office not later than seven calendar days after the meeting.

Podany 6165 Sinclair Road Mound, MN 55364 Dear Ned: This is to summarize the steps we are to take in connection with your swap of land with the City. Since one council member was opposed (at least without further study) to the vacation, it would seem wise .to file a petition for vacation yourself rather than. have the City Council do it on its own Motion. It only takes a majority if there is a petition but it takes 4/5ths votes to pass the vacation if' it's on the Council's own Motion. I feel that you would be the oniy owner of land abutting the portion of the park to be vacated and therefore you would constitute "a majority of the owner's land abutting". It is my opinion that no one else would need to sign the petition. However this matter should be cleared with Curt Pearson to see what his ruling would be. I understand that you're going to obtain a new legal description including a bit more land than you had originally intended so that it would not be necessary at a later time to request a set back variance when you wish to build a garage. It may be that this would make it necessary from the City's point of view to obtain a walking easement along the edge of the property which you would be acquiring. The first necessity is to get a correct legal description from the surveyor. I will proceed to draft a deed to be signed by the fee owner from which you are purchasing and a partial release of the mortgage. We should get started on this because it may take some time and the City will not wish to complete the vacation until they have this deed and mortgage release in escrow. Mr. Ned Podany October 20, 1983 Page Two It is possible that the City would just as soon have a permanent easement rather than the fee title to that part of Lot I which we have promised to give them. Giving them an easement rather than fee title would avoid going through the City's subdivision procedures and also avoid any possible requirement for filing a registered land survey with the Registrar of Titles. Sincerely yours, REED & POND Roger W. Reed RWR:jh ~on Elam Curt Pearson PS: I am sending a copy of this letter to Curt Pearson with the request that he giv~ me and Jon Elam his comments on sufficiency of having a vacation petition signed by you alone and upon the advantages and disadvantages to the City in accepting an easement rather than fee title.

The Council is concerned that with increased recreational activity over the past several years a dangerous conflict is occurring on svmmer weekends particularly. The Council took~further action requesting that other Lake area communities, including the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District and Hennepin County Sheriff's Water Patrol, also support their request to restrict seaplane activity. The specific request is to prohibit seaplane operations altogether on Saturdays, Sundays and national legal holidays between June 1 and Sep- tember 15 on Lake Minnetonka. At present the rules only prohibit operations on Lake Minnetonka from 11:00 A.M. to 6:00 P.M. on those days. The rules also permit a holder of a Private or Personal-Use Seaplane Base License to land and takeoff during those times if operating from his base on the Lake. In addition, the Wayzata City Council will be considering its own ordinance prohibiting the permanent mooring of sea- planes within its harbor limits on Wayzata Bay to further restrict potential activity generated by Wayzata residents. Support in this action would be appreciated. As a suggestion, if you agree on the need to prohibit seaplane activity on the Lake altogether during the summer, I've included the letter sent to Commissioner Braun on the subject. A similar request by your City Council would add a valuable measure of support toward rules revisions. Yours very truly, David L. Bangasser City Manager DLB/j~ Eno.

The managers discussed the adequacy of the clearance in question and it. was the sense of the board that the proposed 3.5 feet of clearance above the 200 cfs surface level would be adequate for passage. The board also discussed the need for an easement across the property to provide portage to canoeists. Mr. Taylor expressed concern regarding providing an easement, noting that he feared that it would become a trail easement across the property and not simply used for portage. September 15, 198.3 Page 8 Following substantial review and discussion by the board, it was moved by Andre, seconded by Carroll, that the owner's concept plan submitted and reviewed by the board on September 15, 1983, was an acceptable bridge design and that it be accepted by the board.

Water Maintenance &'Repair Fund/Creek Clean Up The engineer reported that approximately 1,500 feet of creek shore in the City of Minnetonka and 3,000 feet of creek shore in the City of St. Louis Park were cleaned, debris removed and trees trimmed by the Tree Trust. Cascade Lane/City of Edina The engineer advised the board that he had reviewed survey data and bridge plans for the Highway 100 bridge. The engineer advised the managers that his investigation showed that the Highway 100 bridge may have been constructed to provide the cross-sectional area called for by the bridge plans. The engineer estimated the cost of removal of grout and sediment within the highway right-of-way at approximately $18,.500 and indicated his preliminary judgment that such modification of the bridge opening could reduce water surface elevations by approximately one and one-half inches at flows of 200 cfs. The board directed the engineer to meet with the City of Edina to further review the matter. Galpin Lake Petition/City of Excelsior The engineer reviewed the status of work undertaken by the district in response to the petition of the City of Excelsior for Galpin Lake drainage improvements. The board reviewed a memorandum from the engineer dated August 9, 1983, setting forth the history of the petition and identifying the repair work to which the district had previously contributed under the Water Maintenance & Repair Fund. The engineer advised the board that the city previously requested that the district forgive the investigative costs incurred by the district in response to the petition and that in response to September 15, 198.3 Page 16 that request, the district had indicated that in light of the fact that the amount actually spent on repair of the system"was substantially less than the allocation, the district would be willing to forgive an amount equal to the difference between the actual cost and the allocated amount, but had not been presented with reasons just.ifying forgiveness of the remainder. Subsequently, the City of Excelsior adopted a resolution requesting the petition be withdrawn on the condition that the C~ty not be required to pay the costs resulting from the petition. The engineer indicated that no further communication has been received'.from the City of Excelsior regarding this matter and that it was clear that no additional work would be undertaken sinc~ the repair work has caused the system to function properly. Following discussion and review by the board in which the board 'noted that the city, as petitioner, had agreed to pay all costs of investigation up to $5,000 in the event the project was not ordered, it was moved by Andre. seconded by Carroll, that the petition be dismissed based on the fact that the repair work called for as a result of the initial engineering investigation had adequately restored the system and that no further improvement in the vicinity was warranted at the the present time; that the district bill the City of Excelsior for the district's costs of investigation in response to the petition with a credit against this amount equal to the sum allocated to the City for Galp~n Lake drainage repair work 'from the Water Maintenance ~ Repair Fund but not spent in Connection with the project. Upon vote the motion carried. Lake Zumbra/Sunny Lake Outlet Investigation The engineer distributed and reviewed w(th the board'a memorandum dated August 1, 1983, investigating and reviewing the existing outlet system for Lake Zumbra and Sunny Lake within the Carver Park Reserve owned by the Hennepin County Park Reserve District. The investigation was undertaken at the request of the Hennepin County Park Reserve District and authorized by the Board of Managers July 21, 1983. The engineer reviewed discharge hydrographs prepared as a part of his investigation and reviewed his conclusions with the managers. Following discussion and review, the board received the recommendations of the engineer and authorized that the memorandum and the conclusions be forwarded to the Hennepin County Park Reserve District and further that the Homeowners' Association on Sunny Lake also be provided with a copy of the engineer's conclusions. September 15, 1983 Page 17 Continuation of Regular Meeting There being no further business to come before the Board of Managers, Chairman Cochran, at 11:35 p.m., declared the meeting continued to 5:00 p.m. on September 29, 1983, at the Wayzata City Hall. Continuation Meeting The continuation of the regular meeting of September 15, 1983, was called to order by Chairman Cochran at 5:05 p.m. on September 29, 1983, at the Wayzata City Hall, Wayzata, Minnesota, pursuant to 'notice announced at the regular meeting of September 15, 1983, and mailed notice of September 19, 1983. Managers Present: Cochran, Lehman and Andre Managers Absent: Thomas and Carroll Staff: Panzer and Macomber Also present was Mayor Marvin Johnson, City of Independence. Upper Watershed Storage and Retention Project/Painter Creek Subwatershed CP-5 Chairman Cochran stated that the purpose of the continuation meeting was to consider the record of the public hearing, including any comments received during the period provided by the board for re-opening of the record for written comments, to review the staff analysis submitted to the board dated ~eptember 28, 1983, to consider proposed findings of fact with respect to the project and to act either to order or not order the petitioned project. Chairman Cochran stated that copies of the staff memoranda, minutes of the public hearing of August 25, 1983, and proposed findings were available for any person wishing to review them. The managers first reviewed the minutes of the public hearing of August 25, 1983. Following review, it was moved by Andre, seconded by Cochran, that the minutes be approved with the addition on page 1, first paragraph, 5th line, to add the phrase "on Thursday, August 25, 1983." Upon vote the motion carried. September 15, 1983 Chairman Cochran then called for comments from any persons present at the meeting who wished to address the board .regarding the record of the project. None were noted. Chairman Cochran noted receipt of a memorandum from the engineer dated September 28, 1983, providing the staff's analysis of written comments and hearing testimony submitted regarding Painter Creek/CP-5. Chairman Cochran also noted receipt of a supplement to the engineer's report dated September 28, 1983. Chairman Cochran stated that copies of these two staff documents were available in the meeting room for any person wishing to review them. Chairman Cochran then called upon the engineer to review ~ staff analysis of written comments. The engineer summarized conclusions reached in his written memorandum: (a) The engineer recommended Zhat the improvements suggested by the Water Resources Board in its letter of June 29, 1983, are not practical in Lake Katrina, South Katrina Marsh or Painter Marsh and not be added to the project. (b) The engineer reviewed the elements of his report regarding the overall benefits of the project as those related to the comments submitted by the Metropolitan Council August 9, 1983. (c) The engineer reviewed the comments submitted by the Department of Natural Resources requesting"a fish migration barrier. The engineer explained..that he had met with the DNR personnel following the hearing to attempt to determine whether a fish migration barrier was necessary and, if so, what the design criteria for such a barrier would be. The engineer reviewed alternate designs and alternate locations. The engineer reported on the regults of his investigation. The engineer recommended that the engineering report be supplemented to add a fish migration barrier at Painter Creek Drive at Painter Creek. The engineer also noted that based on the size of the project, p~epara~ion of a mandatory environmental assessment worksheet is not required. The engineer then reviewed the public testimony that re.~uested additional responses from the engineer. September 15, 1983 Page 19 (a) With respect to the request of Mayor Marvin Johnson that additional channel maintenance be provided, the engineer recommended that this work not be included in the project because it is. not necessary to the functioning of project CP-5, would resUlt'in local benefits only, would not be appropriate for district-wide financing and could be undertaken under alternate funding mechanisms. (b) The engineer reviewed a letter from Gilman Sorenson dated September 20, 1983, requesting additional dredging of a defined waterway between Ingerson Road and Painter Creek. The engineer similarly recommended that it not be added to'the project 'for the above reasons. (c) The engineer reviewed written comments received from At)by and Glenn Rye dated September 9 and September 27, 1983. The engineer advised the board that no adverse environmental consequences of the project have been identified and that these are discussed at Appendix H of the engineer's report. The engineer also stated that it was the intent of the district to negotiate easement acquisition with affected property owners and to compensate such owners for any property rights necessary to construct and maintain the project. The engineer then reviewed his supplement to the engineering report'dated September 28, 1983. The engineer advised the board that the amended report recommended the addition of a project No. 7, a fish migration barrier, under Painter Creek Drive in the City of Minnetrista for the reasons set forth in the staff memorandum analyzing written comments. The engineer reviewed the preliminary design criteria provided by the DNR and the cost estimates contained in the supplement to the engineering report. The engineer then reviewed project costs. With the addition of the fish migration barrier, the engineer advised the managers that the total estimated construction cost was $239,936 (1982 dollars). The engineer then reviewed paragraph E on page 4 of the supplementary report. The engineer stated that the costs in line item 4 had been brought current through September 27, 1983, to incorporate all costs through the close of the hearing record. The managers reviewed the various methods of allocation of the costs incurred prior to the adoption of the Painter Creek Work Plan on December 11, 1980. · . J September 15, l~B3 Page 20 It was noted that the pre-Painter Creek Work Plan studies produced data useable and used in the Painter Creek Work Plan a_nd that it would be appropriate to include such costs as a part of the total project costs. Following discussion and review by the board, it was moved by Andre, seconded by Lehman, to accept the supplement to the engineer's report of September 28, 1983, adopting Method 1 as set forth on page 4 of the supplemental engineering report. Upon vote the motion carried. It was noted that transposition of numbers appeared in line item 6 on page 4 and that the figure "$239,963" should read "$239,936." It was then moved by Andre, seconded by Lehman, that on page 4 of the September 28, 1983, engineering report, line item 6 be amended to delete the figure "$239,963" .and insert in lieu thereof "$239,936," and that item 9, total estimated project costs, be reduced to reflect the adjustment in line item 6 and that, as amended, the supplement to the engineer's report dated September 28, 1983, be approved and accepted. Upon vote the motion carried. The board then reviewed proposed Findings of Fact, Conclusions and Order regarding the Painter Creek Project which Chairman Coch~an noted were available for review by the public. Following review of the Findings, Conclusions and proposed Order, it was moved by Lehman, seconded by Andre, that the proposed Findings of Fact, Conclusions and Order as submitted to the board be amended to insert the figure "$239,936" in paragraph 65 of the Findings and paragraph 7 of the Conclusions .and to insert the figure "$487,085" in paragraph 67 of the Findings, paragraphs 8 and 9 of the Conclusions and paragraph 3 of the Order, and that, as amended, the Findings of Fact, Conclusions and Order be approved and adopted by the board in the form attached to and hereby made a part of these minutes. Upon vote the motion carried. Continuation of Public Hearinq on 1984 Budqe~ Chairman Cochran then declared the public hearing on the district's 1984 budget to be re-opened at 5:45 p.m. Chairman Cochran stated that this public hearing on the budget was a continuation of the public hearing held at the September 15, 1983, meeting of the Board of Managers and that the purpose of the continuation was to consider a proposed budget for Painter Creek Project CP-5. Chairman Cochran stated that the September 15, 1983 Page 21 proposed budget for the project was contained in the engineer's report and that copies were available for review. The managers noted that the engineer's report dated October, 1982, revised May 3, 1983, expressed construction costs and easement acquisition costs in 1982 dollars and that for consistency, 1982 dollars had been carried over into the supplement of September 28, 1983. The managers also noted that the engineer had calculated an adjustment of the total estimated project cost to reflect 1984 costs for use in considering a tax levy resolution, but that the individual line item for construction and easement acquisition would also. require adjustment.to reflect these costs in 1984 dollars, because the actual tax levy would be made for the project and contracts would be let in 1984. Following discussion and review, it was moved by Andre, seconded by Cochran, that the following budget be adopted for Upper Watershed Storage and Retention Project/Painter Creek Subwatershed CP-5, with individual line items shown below to be adjusted to reflect 1984 dollars, provided that the total estimated project cost of $487,085 (1984 dollars) shown below shall not change: UPPER WATERSHED STORAGE AND RETENTION PROJECT/ PAINTER CREEK SUBWATERSHED CP-5 PROJECT BUDGET Project No. 1 3 Project Name Lake Katrina Outlet Control Structure South Katrina Marsh Channel 24,535 Improvements South Katrina Outlet Control Structure Painter Marsh Channel Improvements 62,245 Painter Outlet Control Structure 27,616 Pond 937 Outlet Control Structure 20,430 Fish Migration Barrier 18,850 Cost $ 24,000 11,250 Sep=ember 15, 1983 Contingencies - 10% Engineering - 12% Legal and Administrative - 5% Costs of Upper watershed Study Prior to December. 11, 1983 18,893 22,671 9,446 51,087 Painter Creek Watershed Study Costs through September 27, 1983 59,963 Estimated Easement Acquisition Costs CP-5 (i982 Dollars) 89,050 Total Estimated Pro~ect Cost (1982 Dollars) $440,036 TOTAL ESTIMATED PROJECT COST (1984 Dollars) $487,085 Upon vote the motion carried. Following adoption of the foregoing budget for Project CP-5, manager Lehman moved the following resolution and moved its adoption, seconded by Andre: RESOLUTION OF THE MINNEHAHA CREEK WATERSHED DISTRICT LEVYING A TAX PURSUANT TO MINNESOTA 'STATUTES SECTION 112.61, SUBD. 3, FOR THE PAYMENT OF THE UPPER WATERSHED STORAGE AND RETENTION PROJECT 'PAINTER CREEK SUBWATERSHED CP-5 Manager Lehman offered the following resolution and moved its adoption, seconded by Andre. WHEREAS, the Board of Managers of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District has authorized and ordered the undertaking of the Upper Watershed Storage and Retention Project/Painter Creek Subwatershed CP-5, upon receipt of a petition and following notice and public hearings, all as required by law; and WHEREAS, Minnesota Statutes ~!12.61, subd. 3, authorizes the District to levy a tax, in addition to the annual levy for the administrative fund of the District, to pay the costs of the basic water management features of improvement projects initiated by petition of a municipality; and September 15, 1983 Page 23 WHEREAS, all notices and hearings as required by law have been given and held; NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved that a mill rate sufficient to produce $487,085, but not to exceed one-third (1/3) of a mill, be levied upon all taxable property in the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District, No. 3, Hennepin and Carver Counties, State of Minnesota, for the year 1984 for the purpose of raising funds to be used by the managers to pay the costs of the Upper Watershed Storage and Retention Project/Painter Creek Subwatershed CP-5 and that said levy shall be in addition to the annual administrative levy authorized by Minnesota Statutes ~112.61, subd. 3. The question was on the adoption of the resolution and there were 3 yeas and 0 nays as follows: ANDRE Yea CARROLL Absent COCHRAN Yea LEHMAN Yea THOMAS Absent The chairman declared the resolution adopted. Chairman Cochran then declared the public hearing on the district's 1984 budget closed at 5:55 p.m. Other CP-5 Matters Chairman Cochran called for discussion of additional items with respect to the Painter Creek Project. The engineer requested direction from the board as to the timetable for securing aerial photography of the project area. Alternatives were discussed by the board. Chairman Cochran called for any other business to be brought before the regular meeting of the Board of Managers. Noting none, Chairman Cochran declared the regular meeting adjourned at 6:25 p.m. Respectfully submitted, 0685o Albert L. Lehman, Acting Secretary LABOR MARKET CONDITIONS Vol. 7 No. l0 October 1983 Developments from a Month Ago In several respects, Twin Cities area labor force trends diverged from typical July to August changes in past years and from month to month patterns during 1983. Since the first quarter of 1983, economic growth has been gaining momentum while the labor forc6 was expanding at a much slower than usual rate due to extremely poor job market condi- tions. In the first seven months of 1983, the Twin Cities area labor force had in- creased by only 2.1 percent compared to an average of 3.3 percent over the past thir- teen'years. However, there was an upsurge in labor force expansion in August, caused possibly by rising expectations among discouraged workers of successfully finding a job now that the economy is improving. The number of employed individuals increased at a faster than average rate while the number of unemployed fell only slightly. Since Unemployment Insurance claims data shows a rather healthy decrease between July and August, it appears that larger numbers of new and reentrants to the labor force ay be starting to put additional pressure on the labor market. Nationally, the labor rce participation rate, the percentage of the working age population which is either working or looking for work, has risen from 64.0 percent in March to 64.7 in August. Consequently, while the economy is expected to continue to grow at a rate which will create demand for new jobs, the number of unemployed may not fall as rapidly as in re- cent months because of faster labor force expansion.

The unemployment rate is lower than a year ago in all metropolitan area counties except Wright, where it is higher, and Hennepin, where it is the same as last year. The num- ber of job openings received in August at Job Service offices of the Minnesota Depart- ment of Economic Security was up by 45 percent from a year ago. To .put this positive news into perspective, however, one must compare this year's figures to prerecession years in addition to last year when job market conditions were still deteriorating. Openings recei'ved this August were about 83 percent of the average number received in August Over the past eight years. In many occupational categories, this percentage was far less. For*example, the number of benchmark (assembly and repair) jobs re- ceived in August was only about one-fourth of the eight year average. Professional, clerical, and mach'ine trades jobs were between sixty and seventy percent of the eight year average. Service, transportation, packaging and material handling occupational job'openings were near or exceeded the eight year average. Perc~t Un~oy~nt R~%e$ Percent UnemD~oyed (Not Seasonally ~d3ulted) U~e~p~oyed 1982 19~3 Three Month Outlook The three month period between August and November is typically characterized by sea- sonal employment expansion in educational services and the retail trade sector. Un- employment tends to rise slightly while the unemployment rate is generally stable. Given the outlook for national economic growth, one would anticipate continued im- provement in the employment and unemployment picture, although at a more gradual pace than during the second and third quarters. CHARACTERISTICS OF PERSO)~S CLAIMING UNEMPLOY ,IENT INSURANCE 'number o~ unemployment insurance mants decreased by 1,342 from July. The' 7.7 percent monthly decrease com- pared favorably wi th a past five year average decrease of 4.2 percent. Almost half of the monthly decrease occurred in the durable goods manufacturing industry alone, especially in the nonelectrical machinery sector. Construction and trade also had large decreases from July, with 232 and 315 fewer claims, re- spectively. Compared to a year ago, claims in the regular program are' down by 14,276. While this represents a substantial de- crease, it must be noted that this August there were 'an additional 6,903 claimants in extended benefit programs. The comparable figure for August, 1982, was ll. The manufacturing and service industries accounted for almost two- thirds of the yearly decrease, wi th 5,934 and 2,675 fewer claims, respec- tively. Manufacturing sectors showing improvement were the primary and cated metals industries. Industry Occupational Attachn~nt MINNEAPDLIS-S~.

The manufacturing sec- tor showed stronger than average growth between July and August, even after the short- term auto worker layoff.is taken into consideration. Job increases were registered in all but two of the manufacturing industries but especially in the nonelectrical ma- chinery industry. The construction industry continued to add jobs in August, although the number of jobs in general contract construction remained unchanged. Trade jobs expanded more'rapidly than the average of the past thirteen years with the opening of the City Center in Minneapolis accounting for approximately 70 new retail shops and restaurants. In addition, there are several new service establishments located in t~e Center. Developments from a Year Ago For the first time since September 1981, total wage and salary employment in the Twin Cities area surpassed the comparable year ago figures. While the employment level was about 25,000 below what it was in August, 1981, the rate of recovery in employment over the past nine months since the recession ended nationally has been more rapid than comparable periods following the previous three recessions. Recovery has been much faster than in previous recessions in construction, manufacturing, and trade. In August, the number of construction jobs were above the year ago level for the first time since April, lg80; trade jobs surpassed the year ago level for the first time since October, 1981; and manufacturing jobs exceeded the year ago level for the first time' since December, 1981. Three-Month Outlook Nationally, indicators, show the economy growing in the third quarter at a slower rate than during the booming first half of 1983. I Howe~er, the recovery is still at a rate healthy enough to increase employment. The job outlook in the Twin Cities is expected to continue to improve between the third and fourth quarters. Manufacturing employ- ment is forecasted to remain stable or increase slightly. While construction employ- ment is expected to experience a smaller than usual seasonal drop, higher interest rates may have already curtailed new building activity for the rest of 1983.

Source: Currer. t [n~l(?n~,.r,t ,~tatistics ~'rogram (Fi~_ure~ rounded to nearest hundred) The Job Market The medical services industry has displayed rapid growth in the past decade and is expected.to continue to grow in the future. This brief article will attempt to give some historical employment trends,' compare staffing requirements in the various types of health care facilities, and discuss some of the trends which are likely to have a significant impact on the rate of employment growth in the medical services industry in the future. As the graph below shows, total health services employment in the Minneapolis-St. Paul metropolitan area showed steady growth from 1972 to 1981 when it began to level off. Factors which were responsible for the growth were greater health consciousness by the general public, rising incomes, and increased insurance coverage. When the health services industry is dissected into three major components, one can see definite dif- ferences in employment trends between hospital and nursing homes, which are inpatient facilities, and other medical services including outpatient facilities, such as HMO clinics, medical and dental laboratories, and offices of physicians, dentists, and health practitioners. Emp 1 oymen t {Thousands 80 7O 4O 30 2O lO Trends in Private Hedical Services Employment, Iqinneapolis-St. Paul SMSA 1972 - 1983 Total Private Health Services Hospitals Other Health Services /__ ----~Nursing Homes 72 73 74 75 76 77 78 79 80 81 82 83 Employment in private hospitals has increased by 28.3 percent between 1972 and 1983. Employment has stabilized at about 31,000 over the past three years. As the length of stay and number of patient days in hospitals has dropped, a surplus of beds has devel- oped and hospitals have merged, closed, or changed the nature of their services. The severe 1981-82 recession has also impacted on the demand for health care as some peo- ple have had to postpone health care because of the loss of a job and health insurance coverage. Employment in nursing homes and other medical services has increased by over 95 percent since 1972. The employment trend in nursing homes has mirrored that of hospitals while employment in other medical services has showed steady growth since the mid-1970's. The following table shoves staffin9 patterns by major occupational groups in the three types of medical services.

Detailed occupational employment estimates in the medical services i~dustry are avail- able in the 1980 and 1981 Occupational Employment Statistics publications. significant trends are likely to have a major impact on the demand for health care ervices in the future. The first is demographic while the second is financial in nature. The demand for medical'services is expected to increase in the future because of the increasing number of older people who generally require medical services more frequently. According to projections made by the State iDemographer's Office, the total population of the seven county Minneapolis-St. Paul area is expected to increase by 12.4 percent between 1980 and 2000. The population of the 75 years and oldet is projected to increase by46.9 percent in the same 20 year period. A second significant trend underway already is controlling the cost of health care. Controlling the rising cost of inpatient care through developing alternative outpa- tient services has already had an impact on employment as was demonstrated in the graph. Home health care services are an alternative to nursing homes for many elder- ly people. A second example is the shifting of diagnostic tests and simple surgery from hospitals to outpatient clinics. Phased changes in the Medicare payment system over the next four years are expected to have a significant impact on the way hospi- tals operate in the future. There is likely to be more specialization by hospitals, more sharing of expensive equipment, and greater incentive to reduce surplus beds in order for hospitals to minimize their costs. In general, these trends point to a more streamlined system of inpatient care with employment growth in outpatient medical services.

Compensation cost increases for private industry (1.2 percent) and State and local government workers (0.5 percent) in the March-June period this year were similar to last Year. A comparison of compensation cost changes for the 12-month period ending June 1983 with a 12-month period ending June 1982 shows a significant slowdown. Com- pensation cost increases dropped more for State and local government workers (7.1 per- cent from.9.3 percent last year) than for private industry workers (6.3 percent from 7.2 pencent). The drop in compensation~cost increases for-State and local government workers occurred in both the wage and benefit cost components. For private industry workers, the slowdown was caused only by dampened wage and salary increases.

The plan also calls for supporting "informal" sources of help such as families and friends who provide most services to older people· The Council will use the plan for policy direction in issues of health, housing and aging and in its review of grant applica- tions for housing and related health and social services for older persons. Metrodome-The Council set the Minneapolis hotel-motel liquor tax requirement at $2.2 million for 1984, to help ser- vice the debt on SB5 million in bonds sold to build the Metro- dome. Minneapolis will translate the requirement into a two percent tax on lodging and on-sale liquor, a reduction from the three percent tax currently in effect. Cable TV-The Council decided to apply to the Minnesota Cable Communications Board for designation as the agency to ersee a regional cable channel. The Council's application for appointment of a regional board to manage and oper- ate the channel under policy direction from the Council, and ensures access to the channel by a variety of groups and organizations. Economic Development--Council Chair Gerald Isaacs decided to postpone work on an economic development program he had proposed for the Metropolitan Council, partly because of resistance from some smaller cities in the Region. Under the program, the CoUncil would have issued industrial revenue bonds and set up a federal "503" program for real e~tate loans to small businesses in cities outside Minneapolis and St. Paul. However, the Council will continue to develop its economic policies (see public hearing informa- tion below). Health--The Council approved revisions to a certificate~f- need proposal from Health Resources, Inc. and St. John's Hospital to build a 130-bed general acute hospital in Maple- wood. The revisions require the hospital to complete its relocation by December 1993 and to apply for a new certifi- cate of need when the hospital wants a second CT scanner, a computer-assisted x-ray machine. Housing-The Council said that a request for $7.6 million in federal moFtgage insurance to build a 189-unit apartment complex at Lexington Ay. and Wagon Wheel Rd. in Mendota Heights is consistent with Council policies. The Council r.,commended federal approval, provided that: Mendota Heights amend its comprehensive plan to show sewer service will be available to the apartments; prospective tenants receive 'nformation about anticipated aircraft noise; and the apart- ants be built to limit interior noise from aircraft. Transportation-~'he COuncil approved the Transportation Advisory Board's allocation of Federal Aid Urban (FAU) funds to complete the following projects: - Reconstruction in 1984 of Washington Av. S. from 5th Ay. to Interstate Hwy. 3BW (SI.3 million}; - Widening of roadways on Penn Av. and 66th Sts. in 1984 (S537,000); - Widening of University Ay. from Egret Blvd. to Hwy. 12 in 1985 ($409,000); -- Continuation and expansion of Minnesota Rideshare in 1983 ($150,000); and - Rehabilitation of Metropolitan Transit Commission buses in 1984 ($1.1 million). The Council also deleted The FAU lundin9 share of the reconstruction of the intersection of Hwy. 13 and the Mendota Bridge in Dakota County due to insufficient funds from other sources. The action will not jeopardize the project's future funding. Parks-The Council amended a development grant contract with Carver County for Lake Minnewashta Regional Park, adding $141 BOO for a new total of $249,000. Projects include completing a swimming beach and building an additional picnic area, hiking and ski-tour trails and a second boat launch. Comprehensive Plans--The Council said the comprehensive plan of Shorewood, He'nnepin County, is consistent with regional plans for growth and development. PUBLIC HEARINGS, PUBLIC MEETINGS Hertn~"pin County Solid-Wast~ Sites--The Council will hold two public meetings to discuss three potential solid-waste land- fill sites in Hennepin £ounty.

PERPICH REPLACES A-95 REVIEW President Reagan abolished the federal A-95 review process but invited governors to replace it with review systems of their own. In September, Gov. Perpich assigned the Metropolitan Council to continue its review for the Seven~,ounty Area of applications for federal grants and loans. The number of federal funding programs subject to Council review has been greatly reduced. A list of the 87 programs will be published over the next few issues of the Review and can be obtained by calling the Communications Department at 291-6464. MINNESOTA RACING COMMISSION Over the next few months, the Council will be helping the Minnesota Racing Commission in the commission's selection of a racetrack site in the Metropolitan Area. The next two commission meetings will be held on OCT. 26 and Nov. 9, both at the United Labor Center, Room 216,312 Central Ay., Minneapolis. Look for a listing of future commission meetings in the "Coming Meetings" section of the Review.
