Taxpayer Services Department DATE: TO: FROM: SUBJECT: November t4, 2003 Board of Commissioners Sandra Verges, County Administrator Background Information - Proposed Tax Notices (TNT) The proposed tax notices (TNT) must be received after November 10 and mailed by November 22 in 2003. As in past years, the net tax changes vary greatly from city to city, depending on market values, levy, and legislative changes. Constituent questions regarding tax rates and tax calculations can be referred to the tax information line - 612-348-3011. Questions regarding values or homestead classifications can directed to the county assessor - 612-348-3046. CLASS RATES, LIMITED VALUES, AND LEVY LIMITS Again this year, the class rates remained unchanged for most properties: residential and single family non-homestead rates remained at 1% for the first $500,000 and 1.25% for the value over $500,000; commercial rates remained at 1.5% on the first $150,000 and 2.0% on the balance of the market value. Apartment rates decreased from 1.5% to 1.25%. This is the last of three annual decreases legislated in 2001, We are in the third year of a seven-year phase out of the Limited Market Value laws. The limitation on values for pay 2003 was the greater of 10% of the previous year's limited value or 15% of the difference between the current year's full market value and the previous year's limited value. For pay 2004 these numbers change to 12% and 20%, respectively. CONSTANT SPENDING .AND THE "MIDDLE TWO COLUMNS" Legislation passed in 2003 eliminated the constant spending tax calculation and removed the middle two columns ("Increases/Decreases Due to Spending" and "increases/Decreases Due to Other Factors") from the proposed tax notice. SCHOOL DISTRICT LEVIES Changes to School District. certified levies are shown in Appendix D. These changes do not include school referendums that passed November 4, 2003. -793- NOU-24-2003 09:56 HENNEPIN CTY ASSESSOR 612 348 8751 P. 02/0"? SCHOOL DISTRICT REFERENDUMS Eight school districts held referendums on November 4, 2003 for taxes payable in 2004. Those districts are Bloomington, Edina, Elk River, Richfield, Rockford, St. Anthony-New Brighton, Waconia, Wayzata. Details of the referendums can be found in Appendix A. The TNT notices will no...~t include the estimated additional taxes, but the notices will have a boided announcement stating that any approved referendum amounts have not been included in the proposed tax. The final tax bill will include the additional taxes. Cabins and agricultural land are exempt from paying operating school referendums. CITIES There is a great deal of variety in the changes to city levies from 2003 to proposed 2004. While 18 cities have proposed double-digit increases, 1 has proposed no increase at all and 2 are proposing decreases. Appendix C shows the changes in certified levies for each city in Hennepin County. Appendix C also includes the changes to "spending' for the county and each city. "Spending" is defined as the certified levy plus state paid aids, and has been used in the past to calculate the middle two columns on proposed tax notices. The county and 14 cities will have proposed decreases due to "spending" in 2004. The final column on Appendix C shows the projected Market Value Homestead Credit payment that will be withheld by the state from each city and the county. 24 cities will forfeit a portion of this credit in addition to cuts in state paid aids, In effect, this has the same impact as a reduction in the certified levy or state paid aid. When we include this adjustment, the county and 19 cities will have proposed decreases in property taxes plus state paid aids and credits in 2004. CIRCUIT BREAKER/TARGETING The 2001 Property Tax Reform bill contained major changes to the homeowner property tax refund program (circuit breaker). The changes included raising the maximum refund to $1,530 for homeowners; raising the maximum income to $81,600; and revising the income thresholds & percent of tax paid by the taxpayer. For example, if one has an household income of $70,000 and property taxes of $3,000, the refund would be $100; an income of $40,000 and taxes of $2,000, the refund would be ,$497; an income of $20,000 and taxes of $2,000, the refund would be $1,017 or over half of the total tax. - The targeting portion of the program offers relief no matter what the person's income. If their taxes rose more than 12% and at least $100, the state will refund 60% of any amount paid beyond those limits, up to a maximum of $1,000. The Minnesota Department of Revenue administers both the circuit breaker and targeted form of Property Tax Refund. -794- NOV-24-2003 09:S6 HENNEPIN CTY ASSESSOR 612 348 8751 P.03/07 TAX IMPACT ANALYSIS With the tax calculations now complete, the Taxpayer' Services Department is able to analyze the changes in property taxes from payable 2003 to payable 2004. A review of 241,939 single-family properties revealed that unless the proposed levies are decreased, 56% (135,077) of homes will see tax increases of 10% or mom. 22% (52,027) of homes will see decreases this year, compared with only 776 last year. This is in spite of a shift of the tax burden toward residential property that is caused by continuing increases to residential market value along with negligible increases to commemial market value. Appendix B contains the tax increases on a representative single-family property by city, using the predominate school district in each city. if you have any questions about the source of the values used in Appendix B, call Ken Rowe at 596-9124. If you have specific requests or have any other questions, please call Pat O'Connor at 348-4084 or Ken Rowe at 596-9124. c: Richard Johnson Melissa Booth Pat O'Connor -795- NOU-24-2003 09:56 HENNEP IN CTY ASSESSOR 612 348 8751 P. 04x07 ~PEN~IX A SCHOOL DISTRICTS REFERENDUMS Some school districts passed referendums in the November, 2003 general election.

Mound, MN 55364 Dear Ms. Ritter: This letter is to inform you of legislative Changes made by the 2003 Legislature that effect the Local Boards of Appeal and Equalization. These changes provide that by no later than January 1,2006, and each year thereafter, there must be at least one member at each local board meeting who has attended an appeals and equalization course developed or approved by the Commissioner of Revenue. The required course work must have been completed by the designated local board member(s) within the last four years of each annual local board meeting(s). A handbook will be developed by the Commissioner of Revenue, no later than January 1, 2005 and is to detail local board procedures, responsibilities, and requirements. A review of the handbook must be included in the local board course. Details of the course and handbook will be promulgated by the Department.of Revenue at a later date. In addition, the new legislation also requires that the local boards provide proof of compliance with the course attendance, as well as, provide verification that a quorum was present at each of the local board meetings in the prior year. This legislation provides that any city or town that does not provide proof of compliance to the county assessor by December 1,2006, and each year thereafter, is deemed to have transferred its board of appeal powers to the county for the following assessment. This transference of duties to the county is an "alternate review process" (M.S. 274.13 subd. lc.) and shall take place in April or May with "open book" meetings. The open book meetings are where the county assessor shall make available a procedure for reviewing the assessments with the taxpayers. A copy of this 2003 legislation has been attached. M:'C,21~dministrative\Policies and Procedures\Local Board of Appeal and Equalization - 802- Recycled Paper An Equal Opportunity Employer · Page 2 August 19, 2003 In light of these legislative changes, I wanted to remind you that M.$. 274.01 subd. 3 · currently provides for the transference of duties from the local boards to the county assessor. This statute is only available to those cities whose assessment services are performed by the county assessOr.

Ambrose and Babcock arrived ,at 7:05 p.m, PUBLIC COMMENTS- Persons in attendance, subjects not on agenda (5 min.) -807- Il ii i ,I , Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting FebruarY 25, 2004 Page 2 Mr. Randy Boyd, 19960 Minnetonka Blvd., stated that he resided on Carsons Bay and he believed it was the densest bay on Lake Minnetonka. The Lake Minnetonka Boat Density Sub-Committee was established in March 2003 by the Board and he stated that he had closely followed the activity of the Boat Density Sub-Committee. He expressed concern about its progress because he believed it appeared that the current direction of the sub- committee was to eliminate the 1974 policy to allow the pending applications submitted by the City of Deephaven to be approved. In closing, he stated that he believed there was a data practices act violation at the 2/19/04 Boat Density Sub-Committee Meeting because a document was being discussed and it was not available to the general public at that meeting. Nybeck stated that it was not clear to him at the 2/19/04 Boat Density Sub-Committee Meeting whether the document referred to by Boyd was public. He pointed out that he had conferred with LeFevere on this, LeFevere concluded that the document was public, and that it was made aVailable to Boyd on 2/23/04. Skramstad asked Foster if he Would like to update the Board on the progress of the Boat Density Sub-Committee. Foster stated that he discuss this under "Old Business" later in the meeting. CONSENT AGENBA. Consent agenda items identified with a (*) will be approved in one motion unless a Board member requests discussion of any item, in which case the item will be removed from the consent agenda. Foster moved, Babcock seconded to approve the consent agenda as submitted. Items so aPproVed include:'2A, 2004, staff recommends Board approval of 2004 renewal without change applications as outlined 2/19/04 staff memo, and SA, Minutes from the 2/13/04 EWM/Exotics Task Force Meeting. Skramstad.stated that he would like to move agenda items 2B and 2C before the scheduled public hearing if the Board did not object Therewere no objections by the Board. WATER STRUCTURES B. Lisa Ryskamp, staff recommends Board approve a motion to amend the approved doCk length variance bY substituting a revised dock plan to allow for a uniform five foot width for the entire dock' struCture. Skramstad asked for background from Nybeck. Nybeck stated that Lisa Ryskamp had called him recently and informed him that a mistake on the approved dock plan was noticed by the contractor who was constructing the pe~anent dock in Forest Lake. On the previous site plan for the permanent dock that was removed, it had a uniform five foot dock width for the entire structure. On the approved.dock plan, it has a five foot dock Width at the slip struCture; however, it has a three and one half foot dock width at the walkway leading to the slip structure. He believed that this was an honest mistake by Lisa Ryskamp and he recommended the Board approve a motion to amend, the approved dock length variance by substituting a reVised dock plan to allow for a uniform five foot dock width for the entire dock structure. MOTION: Foster moved, Babcock seconded to amend the Ryskamp approved dock length variance by substituting a revised dock plan to allow for a uniform five foot dOCk width for the entire dock structure. -808- Lake Minnetonka'Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 25, 2004 Page 3 Babcock proposed a friendly amendment that would require Lisa Ryskamp to submit an updated site plan to reflect the change in width of the dock structure as proposed in the motion, Foster agreed to the friendly amendment. VOTE: Motion carded unanimously C, James Houg, consideration of draft Findings of Fact and Order for approval of a dock length variance application. Skramstad stated that LeFevere had prepared Findings of Fact and Order for approval of a dock length vadance application as directed by the Board at the 2/11/04 Regular Meeting. He asked the Board if they had comments or were prepared to make a motion. MOTION: Foster moved, Nelson seconded to approve the Findings of Fact and Order for approval of a dock length variance application for James Houg at 4841 Bartlett Blvd. VOTE: Ayes (10), Nayes (1, Babcock); motion carried. PUBLIC HEARING · City of Mound, new multiple dock license application to increase transient Boat Storage Units (BSU's) from 16 to 24 at the north end of the Lost Lake Channel, Skramstad opened the public hearing at 7:16 p.m. and asked for background from Nybeck, Nybeck made the following comments: ° Mr. Jim Fackler, Mound Park Superintendent, has submitted a new multiple dock license application for consideration by the Board to increase the number of transient BSU's from 16 to 24 on the north end of the Lost Lake Channel. The Board approved the 16 transient BSU's in 1997 and dedicated 1,500' of non-continuous shoreline to the Lost Lake Channel project for these transient BSU's. It was unclear to staff how much 929.4' shoreline Mound was dedicating towards to the Lost Lake Channel for the new multiple dock license application. · Pursuant to Lake Minnetonka Conservation Distdct (LMCD) Code, a public hearing was advertised for the 2/11/04 Regular Board Meeting in the 1/27/04 edition of the Lakeshore Weekly News. The public hearing was opened at this meeting; however, staff recommended continuing it to the 2/25/04 Regular Meeting because the applicant had not submitted adequate address labels as required by LMCD Code Section 2.03, subd. 16. The Board approved this recommendation, the applicant has submitted the additional address labels, and these residents were sent a copy of the public hearing notice. · Code Section 2.03 clarifies that there is a need to secure a license from the LMCD to locate, install or maintain a multiple dock or commercial dock on Lake Minnetonka. A multiple dock on Lake Minnetonka is any dock or mooring area constructed or maintained for the construction of five or more restricted watercraft, Because,of this definition, the 16 proposed transient BSU's approved in 1997 required a new multiple dock license and the proposal to increase transient BSU's from 16 to 24 required a new multiple dock license application, with public hearing. -809- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 25, 2004 Page 4 Code Section 2.01 prohibits a person from using any area of the Lake outside an authorized dock use area for docking and storage of watercraft. The proposed dock structure and boat storage would be contained within the maximum length for this site from the 929.4' shoreline, 100'. The proposed dock would meet the required minimum 20' side setback from the westerly side site line and staff believes it would comply with the required 20' side setback from the easterly side site line because this site line appears to be significantly south adjacent to the dredged channel. The applicant should clarify the exact location of this side site line. Code Section 2.03, subd. 16 provides special rules for municipal docks that have a width that exceeds what is allowed by Section 2.12, subd. 12. It allows the Board to grant or deny such applications, subject to conditions, if five conditions are met. These include: 1) The dock must be owned and operated by a city, county or state agency, 2) The dock must be open to the general public subject to reasonable regulations of the owner, 3) No permanent or ovemight storage shall be allowed at the dock, 4) No license shall be granted for a dock extending more than 150' from the shoreline, and 5) No retail sales, other than fuel, shall be permitted on the dock. He pointed out that the boardwalk at the site would exceed six feet in both length and width, which is prohibited by Code. However, this Code provision would allow the Board to consider the application because it meets the five conditions outlined above. Code Section 2.03 allows the Board to utilize a number of subjective criteria in exercising its discretion in granting or denying applications. One subjective criterion that the Board may want to discuss is "Whether the proposed facility is compatible with the LMCB watercraft density classification criteria". This subjective criterion refers to the 1974 Boat Density Policy Statement that is currently be reviewed by the Boat Density Sub-Committee and has established five warning conditions as indices to assist the Board in making a determination whether to make a designation of "Critical". If one of these indices is met by actual use of any area of the Lake, the Executive Director should assign a "Potentially Critical" designation and the Board notified. If two or more indices are met, the area should be designated "Critical" and referred to the Board for remedial action. Staff has applied the five indices to Cooks Bay and he reported that three of them have been met or exceeded. However, he questioned whether the analysis prepared was accurate because he believed that Lost lake Channel was a separate water body from Cooks Bay. The Environmental Quality Board (EQB) requires a mandatory Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) when dock structure and maneuvering space exceed 20,000 square feet. The City of Mound conducted a mandatory EAW for the entire project, including docking, in 1996. The dock structure and maneuvering space for the plan that was included in the mandatory EAW had 27,136 square feet. The proposed site would have an estimated 19,190 square feet of dock structure and maneuvering space square feet and the EQB does not require a second EAW until there is a cumulative expansion of an additional 20,000 square feet from the 1996 site plan. Thus, there is not a need to conduct a mandatory EAW for the new multiple dock license application. Staff believes that the Board could approve the new multiple dock license; however, three things should be clarified. First, the applicant should clarify that the eastedy side site line south of BSU #24 would meet the 20' side setback requirement. Second, the applicant should clarify how much non- continuous 929.4' shoreline is dedicated to the Commons Program, the Lost Lake Channel project, and the six street ends in the Woodland Point Development. Third, the Board should discuss whether to apply the 1974 Boat Density Policy Statement to the application. He entertained questions or comments from the Board. -810- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting FebruarY 25, 2004 Page 5 Babcock questioned why the shoreline dedicated to the Lost Lake Channel project was not included on the new multiple doCk license aPplication. Mr, Bruce Chamberlain, HOisington and KOegler, stated that he was'a planning consultant for the Oity of Mound, The slips that would be included in this project have been factored in with the entire Mound docking program and he reported that there was approximately 34,000' non-continuous shoreline dedicated to the overall program, The BSU's for the entire program do not exceed the 1:50' General Rule overall. Mr. Jim Fackler, Mound Park Superintendent, stated that the amount of shoreline dedicated to the Mound overall.doCking program has been One figure, which includes the Lost Lake Channel project. In recent years, the City of Mound has had separate multiple dock license for both the Commons Program and the Lost Lake Channel project. The City of Mound condUcted an extensive project in 2002 to evaluate the amount of non- continuous shoreline through aerial photography, estimating the shoreline at 36,131'. In 2003, 30,300' of shoreline was used for the Commons Program and Lost Lake Channel multiple dock licenses. If the Board would like Mound to clarify how much shoreline is dedicated for these two licenses and six street ends in the Woodland Point DeVelopment, he stated that he would work with staff to achieve this. Foster asked how many boats the City of Mound has associated with its Commons Docking Program. Fackler stated that this changes for season to season; however, it has not exceeded the 590 BSU's it has been licensed for in recent years. Foster questioned whY the City of Mound has two separate multiple dock liCenses and stated that it might make sense to consolidate the Commons Docki!~g Program and..the Lost Lake Channel project under one license. Babcock stated that he believed the choice of whether,to have one or two multip!e dock licenses should be left tO'the Ci~,' of'Mound becaUSe they a~'eqU~i~"i~2914 shoreline to proceed eitherway. However, he stated that h'e'WoUld concur~'with the recb'm~end~ti~i~ of~.staff that the amount of non-continuous 929.4' shOreline shOi. ild be clarified to what facili'tYit is dedicated towards. This. should be noted on the..site plan to ensure that docking and boat stot'ag.e'cbmi~!~ With mi~'i~jm ~eibaCk.requiremenis from the side site lines. Foster stated that he WSUld prefer to have the citY of Mound submit a document that highlights the total amoUnt of non-contin'%~_~ Sh0r(~line through~dt i~Ound'. Bab(~Ock stated that m'aln'~aining tWO separate, multiple dock licenses could give Mound some flexibilitY because Of the uniqueness' of the Commons DScki~g Program. Nybeck stated that the primary purpose to require Mound to clarify the shoreline they are dedicating towards the Lost Lake Channel project the Commons Docking Program, and the s x street ~nds at W0odland Point Development was to'enSure that the total a~oU'~t oi i~°n~°ntinuous 9~9.14i shorel r~i~. Was not be ng doub e counted, Babcock suggested that the applicant CoUld continue to dedicate 1,500' of non-continuos shoreline to the Lost. Lake Channel project. -811- I IL I ,~, Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 25, 2004 Page 6 Mr. Vic Potter, 5452 Bartlett Bivd., expressed his support for the new multiple dock license application because he believed the additional transient docks would benefit the downtown redevelopment. However, he lived near the Lost Lake Channel project and he expressed concern about wakes because of increased boat traffic. The entrance to the channel is already signed "Minimum Wake" and he encouraged additional signage or buoys. There being no further comments, Skramstad closed the public hearing at 7:39 p.m. Babcock stated that although he was normally opposed to placing marinas in wetland areas, he was supportive of the proposed plan because the City of Mound has gone through an extensive revieW process and it would provide for transient docks to reduce activity density on the Lake during peak periods. Foster stated that he concurred with the comments of Babcock. MOTION: Foster moved, Burma seconded to approve the City of Mound (Lost Lake Channel)new multiple dock license application for the 2004 season, subject to the applicant continuing to dedicate 1,500' of non-continuous 929.4' shoreline to the project. VOTE: Motion carried unanimously. LAKE USE & RECREATION A. Tony Brough, review and discussion of 2004 Hennepin County Lake Improvement Program. Skramstad introduced Tony Brough from Hennepin County and welcomed him on behalf of the Board. He asked Brough to provide an overview of the 2004 Hennepin County Lake Improvement Program. Brough stated that he oversees the Lake Improvement Program that Hennepin County started in 1972. The Lake Improvement Program involves utilizing navigational buoys, maintaining major boating channels, removing special hazards to navigation, and the management of Hennepin County public accesses and fishing sites. He provided an overview of the 33 Hennepin County maintained channels as determined in 1972 by the Hennepin County Board. The primary purpose for this meeting was to discuss buoys for 2004, adding that Lt. Jeff Storms and Mike Brandt were also in attendance. The pdmary funding source for the buoy program is Hennepin County taxpayers and efforts have been made to make it cost effective. This is the second consecutive winter where the work has been reviewed and changes are being proposed for the 2004 boating season. If the changes proposed for 2004 were implemented, there would be approximately 529 buoys on Lake Minnetonka. This compares to 442 buoys in 1993, 341 in 1983, and 354 in 1974. He recommended a number of changes for the 2004 season and he solicited input from the Board. These changes include: Maxwell Bay near the DNR public access- The change would occur immediately east of Boy Scout Bridge and the recommendation was to remove the set of channel markers adjacent to the MN DNR floating fishing dock, remove the point buoy, and install two Channel markers at the old point buoy location. Brough stated that was concerned that some boaters are unclear on which of the point buoy to navigate and the installation of the channel markers should make this clearer and would also -812- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 25, 2004 Page 7 eliminate one buoy. The Board concurred with this recommendation. Forest Lake at the north end of the bay- The recommendation was to remove the single point buoy near Wildhurst Trail. The current landowners have placed a dock over the shallow areas and the water depth is four feet or deeper within 150' of the dock when the Lake level is at 928.0. The Board concurred with this recommendation. Crystal Bay at the Point near the Lafayette Golf Course. The recommendation was to remove the single point buoy because the water depth appears to be four feet or deeper 100' from shore when the Lake level is at 928.0. Brough stated tha! it probably does not need to be at this location; however, the Sheriff's Water Patrol utilizes it for enforcement purposes. Thus, the recommendation has changed to leave it after consulting with Lt. Storms. The Board discussed the recommendation briefly and they concurred that it should not be removed. However, there were a number of Board members who expressed an interest in moving it slightly towards the west near the point so that it was visible from boats traveling both directions. Brough and Lt. Storms agreed with this change for the 2004 boating season. Browns Bay at the northwest corner of the bay- The recommendation was to remove one point buoy and danger buoy, and move one danger buoy and one set of channel buoys. If, after field inspection, there appears to be too much distance between the channel marker, an additional set of channel markers could be installed. This should make the channel area more clear while removing up to two buoys. The Board concurred with this recommendation. 'Gideon Bay at the northwest corner of the bay- The recommendation was to remove the single point buoy because the water depths gradually change in this area without any defined point from the shore. The bottom in this area is mostly silt and he understood that this point buoy was first installed in 2000 to encourage water skiers to avoid milfoil areas and is not a navigational hazard. The Board concurred with this recommendation. Grays Bay near the DNR public access- The recommendation was to add a single point buoy to the east of the public access to avoid the shallow area and direct boaters to the boating channel. The docks for the municipal marina have reduced been significantly in length from Grays Bay Marina and this has left a larger gap from the channel markers to the dock. The Board concurred with this recommendation. · Lower Lake South near Fergusons Point- The recommendation was to remove one point buoy north of the point and add one point to an existing array of three that already exist at Fergusons -813- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 25, 2004 Point, Page 8 The Board concurred with this recommendation. Carsons Bay near the Deephaven public access. The recommendation was to remove a single point buoy and install sWim buoys in its place that cOuld be permitted through the Sheriff's Water Patrol temporary structure permit process. This point buoy was originally installed to keep boats away from a resident's dock and is not considered a navigational hazard. He also suggested that the Board might want to discuss consolidating the two slow buoys into one at the south end of Carsons Bay. The Board discussed this recommendation and the consensus was to remove the point buoy near the pUblic access and relocate one ofthe two sloW buoys proposed to be removed in the place of the point buoy. A number of Board members stated that this was a problematic area because of the traffic that exits to Carsons Bay from the public acceSs. The Board also suggested that a sign at the public access would be beneficial to notify the public that CarsOns Bay was '"Quiet Waters". Brough stated that he would agree with the Changes proposed by the Board, provided an updated drawing was forwarded to him on the exact location of the buoy changes Big Island at Cruisers Cove. The recommendation was made by the Sheriff's Water Patrol and a ,,m_0difie ,d' Plan ,,w, as approved by the LMCD. Four north-sCuth "no-agchoring, lanes, one east-west no,anchoring ~.,a, ne; and three slOW' buOYs will be installed for a total of 71 buOys. The east-west will be the :,smaller 9 'd'ia~eter bUoys an~~ Will be inStalled/re~oved/cieaned direCti~ bY LMCD and Hennepin' County staff. The Board discussed the proposed layout and whether the north-south' lane fUrthest to the west was necessary. The consensus of the Board was to install the p an for 2004 as proposed and revisit it after the 2004 boating season. Nybeck stated that the 9" diameter buOyS'would be placed' On o. rder in the near future and would be available'for the 2004 season. He pointed out that no fUnding WOUld: be ava ab e [rOm the MN DNR for these: bUoys. Carmans Bay at the Pheasant Lawn private channel- A slgw buoy was installed in 1998 at the inlet of a non-County maintained channel. In~1998, the LMCD~ approved a motion for the installation of one slow buoy, not to exceed 100' from the shore, at this location. It.was determined that Hennepin County Would install, remove,' and'cleab' th~buoy annually and thai the h°meowners associati°n~would pay for all associate~:cOstSI He.Suggesied that a swm bU~ that~requires a permit from the Sl'ieriff'S Water Patrol mightbe more appropriate than a slow buoy, However, he and Lt. Storms concur that a slow buoy niigh[~ be appropriate if the homeowners agreed to place and remove the buoy each boating season; A payment schedule has been established and he recommended revisiting this slow buoy. Babcock ~tated that when the Board reviewed the sl°W bbOy be'lng discussed in 1998, Hennepin -814- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 25, 2004 Page9 County had budget constraints to pay for the buoy in question. This was further Complicated by the fact that the buoy to be installed was at an entrance to a private channel rather than a public channel. The neighbor immed'iately adjacent to this channel in 1998 testified about the concerns that he had, especially with its close proximity to the Narrows Channel, and he agreed to pay Hennepin County for the Placement of this buoy. One problem was that the resident did not pay for the buoy for the 2003 season. Mr. Jim Zimmerman, 2745 Shadywood Road, stated that he had not been inVOiced on the pdvate buoy the past couple boating seasons. He indicated that he was the property owner who petitioned the Board for the slow buoy in 1998. Channel markers were installed and paid by Hennepin until the mid'1980'S at this channel entrance. He believed that this buoy was consistent with other locations on the Lake, including RobinsonS Bay, Gideon Bay, and near the gas dock at Howards Point Marina. He stated that the traffic in this private channel was very heavy, especially with fisherman. He had public safety concems in1998 and the slOW buoY has greatly improVed the situation. He expressed concern that this was the only buoy installed on the Lake that was being paid for privately, adding that he had recently made payment to the LMcD for the 2003 season. The Board discussed the slow-wake buoy at this pdvate channel and whether it wOuld be more appropriate to continue to have Hennepin County oversee the installation or to allow.the homeowners association to install it thbmselves. The consensus was to maintain the same arrangement agreed to in 1998 to :have Hennepin County oversee the installation and removal. Hennepin County stated that they would agree to continue the arrangement.agreed to in 1998. The Board requested that the homeowners association make a'timely payment forthe buoy arrangement as agreed tO in"1998! The Board discussedthe need ti3 establish a process With Hennepin County for similar requests in the.futurei '~ Grays Bay at the channel leading to Libbs Lake. The reCommendation was to re~/iew and discuss removing the slOw wake buoy at the channel inlet and move channel markers to 150' from the shore. The Board concurred with this recommendation. Areas to be investigated during the 2004 season- There was limited= discussion of a map identifying areas to be reviewed and documented during the 2004 seaSOn for possib e. changes in the future. It Was noted that some of these area~ t6 be.~V ewed ~ere prey Ous!y rased by Mr Zimmerman in his comments. Additional areas not covered in this map may be investigated upon receiving comments. Brough concluded by stating that he woUld'be n~titying tt~e affected residents at the locations referenced above about the changes proposed for 2004. These rec0~menda[ions cOuld change if navigational hazards are brought to his attention that he was not currently aware of. Skramstad thanked Brough, Lt. Storms, and Brandt on behalf of the Board for their participation in the discussion of thiS agenda item. B. Ordinance Amendment, first reading of an ordinance relating to the sale of alcoholic beverages on Lake -815- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting ~'ebruary 25, 2004 Minnetonka; amen~ling LMCD Code Sections 5.02 and 5.22. Page t0 Skramstad asked for comments on the draft ordinance amendment or a motion to approve it. Nybeck stated that the Board bdefly discussed at the 2/11/04 Regular Meeting the limitations of 14 intoxicating liquor licenses for charter boats in 2003 and the possibility that number could be expanded if an applicant submitted a request for a restaurant. At this meeting, the consensus of the Board was to further discuss the possibility of increasing the number of intoxicating liquor licenses for charter boats above the 14 available and to direct LeFevere to prepare an ordinance restricting the number of intoxicating liquor licenses in the meantime and possibly to limit the number of wine license and non- intoxicating malt liquor license to an undetermined number. In accordance with this direction, LeFevere has prepared a draft ordinance amendment for consideration by the Board. Harper updated the BOard on the number of liquor licenses issued by the Board in 2003. 14 charter boats had intoxicating liquor licenses, 13 charter boats had both wine and non-intoxicating malt liquor licenses, and one charter boat only a non-intoXicating malt liquor license. Of the 14 charter boats that did not have am intoxicating liquor license, 13 of them have consumption and display permits issued by the State of Minnesota. Babcock stated that he would prefer to maintain the number of intoxicating liquor licenses at 14 and explore the concept of inCreas ng this number by invo v ng the member cities that have ports of call. MOTION: BabcQck moved, Foster seconded to approve first, readings, waive second and third readings, and adopt the ordinance amendment as amended, inserting "28" under subd, 5 for on- sale Wine licenses and inserting "28" under subd. 2 for on-sa e beer licenses, VOTE: Motion carried unanimously. D. Additional Business. There was no additional business. WATER STRUCTUREs D, Thomas and Janet TallaksOn, cons derati°n of draft Findings of Fact and Order for approval of a dock 'length and adjusted dock use area vadanCe apPiication. Maple Hills Association, consideration of: 1) draft Findings of Fact and Order for approval of a dock length and adjusted dock use area variance application, and 2) approval of a new multiple dock license application for the 2004 season. Skramstad asked for backgrOund from Nybeck. NYbeck recommended that these agenda items be combined because the applications are tied together. He pointed out that LeFevere prepared Findings of Fact and Order for approval of the TatlakSon and Maple Hills Association variance applications as directed by the Board at the 2/11/04 Regular Meeting. -816- Lake Minnetonka Conservatioh District Regular Board Meeting February 25, 2004 '~ ~ Page 11 MOTION: Foster moved, Nelson seconded to: 1) approve the Findings of Fact and Order for approval of the Tallakson dock length and adjusted dock use area variance application, 2) approve the Findings of Fact and Order for approval of the Maple Hills Association dock length and adjusted dock use area variance application, and 3) approve the Maple Hills Association new multiple dock license application for the 2004 season. Skramstad stated that there was an e-mail in the handout folders from Board member Van Hercke and copies were made available to the public. Van Hercke expressed concerns about Carsons Bay being a critically dense bay, that the 1:50' General Rule was not adequate to protect excessive dock structure over the wetlands area, and that the Maple Hill Association applications were for an outlot situation. Babcock stated that he opposed the Maple Hills Association applications, especially the variance application, because it takes the 1:50' General Rule for storage purposes and automatically extends it out well beyond the 100' length restriction for dock use areas. For variance applications that extend well out beyond length restrictions for dock use areas, the Board has not commonly allowed for maximum boat storage density allowed by Code and has generally restricted this. When he reviews these types of applications, especially for variance from Code, he applies two basic questions. First, does the proposed project make the Lake a better or a worse place. 'He believed the Maple Hills Association vadance application would make it a worse case because a. significant number of boats would be added to a shallow bay. He stated that he did not generally support madnas in wetland areas. Second, would the general public benefit result from the increased development, citing density as one key aspect. For the proposed project, he did not believe it would provide public benefit because the increased dock would be limited to a select number of individuals. Foster stated that he made the motion because the parties would be entitled to a similar number of boats from individually platted tots and because the back bay has become more accessible with added clearance under the recently constructed bridge. He believed there are a limited number of boats in the back bay and that the land transfer would result in adding shoreline to Burton Park. He reminded the Board that these property owners have dparian rights, although they are not defined, and that the 1:50' General Rule was the most restrictive standard outlined in the Code. He did not believe the seasonal docks would impact the wetland area and that installation of seasonal docks over wetlands was generally supported by the MN DNR over dredging. Nelson stated that he seconded the motion because he was also supportive of wetland areas and he believed the parties involved were a model of cooperation of how this could be done at other sites in the future. Scanlon stated that he would support the motion because the pristine area, including wetlands, would be somewhat protected because of the limited bridge clearance. Babcock stated that the proposal to place one dock over the wetland area would be consistent with what the Board has approved in the past. However, he believed that the number of boats proposed at the Maple Hills Association would much more dense than approved by the Board at this length into the Lake in the past. He estimated that there was 250' of usable surface area at the edge of the cattails rather than the 435' of shoreline dedicated towards the Maple Hills Association applications. Because of this, -817- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 25, 2004 Page 12 he stated that four or five boats at this dock might be more reasonable, Halvorson stated that she did not support the motion because the proposal was excessive for what should be done in a wetland area. Valdesuso stated that he was supportive of the proposed motion. Nybeck stated that the site immediately to the west of the Maple Hills Association, Jay and Susan Goetz,. has an approved dock length variance. However, the dock installed does not appear to be consistent with the approved variance order and he questioned whether the Board would like to piggyback approval of the current dock length at the Goetz site to provide them relief for the Maple Hills Association adjusted dock use area. LeFevere stated that he would be concemed about piggybacking the Goetz dock length with the Maple Hills Association because affected neighbors of the Goetzs have not been properly notified. Harper stated that he had received a telephone call from a realtor who had a client interested in purchasing a property in the immediate area that has an approved variance. The realtor questioned if there were any reStrictionS at the property and Harper stated that he came across a memorandum that was made part of the Findings of Fact and Order for that property. This memorandum addressed the concerns of the Board at that time regarding dockS and boat Storage oVer the wetlands and vegetation in the area. LeFevere stated that a couple of variances were granted in the immediate area in 1991 and 1992 for dock length variances. The Board at that time had some concem about the wetlands.and the possible impact that dock length variances could cause environmental harm, to the wetland area, Because of this concern, the Board informed the residents that fUrther research regarding wetlands .and dock length variance might be Studied by the Board ih the future. These residents were informed that there could be additional regulations adopted in the future that might require them to reduce.the length of the docks approved. He qUestioned whether the Board would like this memorandum included with the Tallakson and Maple Hills Association variance order if approved. Foster stated that he was on the Board at the time referred to by LeFevere and he believed the memorandum was appropriate at that time. Since then, the MN DNR has advocated that hand ddven seasonal.doCks over wetlands are strongly preferred to dredging into wetland areas for docking purposes. Because of this, he believed that the memorandum referred to by LeFevere was a moot point. LeFevere stated that the dichotomy in this MN DNR position is to install a seasonal dock over wetlands or to dredge into them. It may be preferred tO'build doCkS over wetiands rather than to dredge into them for docking purposes. However, that leaves questions about how many docks should be constructed over Wetlands, how long should theSe docks be restriCted to, and should there be other environmental contrOls in place. Babcock stated that he did not want to make a deCiSion on protect ng wet ands from docks and boats based on MN DNR Policy. He indicated that he believed: the MN D~R would be more effective if they -818- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 25, 2004 Page 13 would take a firmer position on these questions because he did not believe their policy would necessarily work on Lake Minnetonka. He believed that there are a number of similar wetland questions in this area when it is compared to tributary ordinance that restricts traffic to electric motors. He suggested that the Board should prioritize preserving existing wetland areas because the "Save the Lake" committee has promoted shoreline restoration for a number of years. Foster stated that he believed the primary distinction between the tributary ordinance and various wetland areas around the Lake is the flow of water in the creeks that carries phosphorous. Prop dredging in shallow water near the proposed wetland area does not have flowing water and would have considerably less environmental impacts. VOTE: Ayes (5; Foster, Nelson, Scanlon, Skramstad, and Valdesuso), Nayes (6); motion failed. MOTION: Babcock moved, Burma seconded to direct the attorney to prepare Findings of Fact and Order for denial of the Tallakson and Maple Hills Association variance applications. VOTE: Ayes (7), Nayes (4; Foster, Nelson, Scanlon, and ValdesuSO); motion carried. F. Additional Business. There was no additional business. '3. FINANCIAL A, Audit of vouchers (2/16/04 - 2/29/04), Knudsen reviewed the audit of vouchers, for the pedod of 2/16/04 - 2/29/04, noting that an amended voucher sheet was included inJhe handout folders, He pointed out that this vouChers sheet included check #14676, dated 2/t9/04, to..Bayview Event Center in the amount of $2~340.29 for the 2004 "Save the Lake" Recognition .Banquet Dinner. He recommended approval of the audit of vouchers as amended, adding check #14676.

Additional Business. 4. ADMINISTRATION A. Discussion of draft LMCD Personnel Policy. Skramstad stated that he had worked with retired Board member Craig Nelson and Nybeck on the draft personnel policy. He proposed two changes to the draft policy under Section 25 under Policy Statement. In the third sentence, he recommended inserting the word "by" between the words "provided" and "Minnesotah.. In the fourth sentence., he recommended eliminating the word "offices" at the end of the sentence and inserting the word "office" in its. place. A copy of a spreadsheet that provided a comparison -819- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 25, 2004 Page 14 of the proposed policy with the existing LMCD personnel policy and the personnel policies of a few member cities was included in the packet. He asked for comments or he entertained a motion to adopt the draft LMCD personnel policy with the two changes he recommended. Babcock stated that he would like to ensure that the carryovers proposed in the draft policy are recognized as liabilities and they should be accounted for in the annual budget process. MOTION: Babcock moved, Knudsen seconded to adopt the draft LMCD personnel policy with the two changes recommended by Skramstad. VOTE: Motion carried unanimously. B. Additional Business. There was no additional business. EWM/EXOTICS TASK FORCE B. 2/13/04 EWM/Exotics Task Force Meeting Report. Suerth stated that he had three discussion items from the 2/13/04 Task Force meeting to bring to the Board's attention. First, the Task Force has agreed to begin holding meetings every two months rather than monthly, with the next EWM/Exotics Task Force Meeting scheduled for 4/9/04. Second, he believed that the 2004 zebra mussel inspection program was under control and would be significantly improved compared to the 2002 and 2003 pilot projects. A meeting has occurred with the MN DNR and they have agreed to cover inspection from mid May through mid September at five selected public accesses on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays during peak times in 2004. A contract is currently being prepared by the MN DNR and will be reviewed by the Board at an upcoming Regular Meeting. Third, he stated that there was a need to begin the process to investigate whether a more comprehensive program was feasible for 2005 and the Task Force discussed the need to establish a power point presentation to present to interested parties, including the member cities. He expresSed concern about how a more comprehensive zebra mussel program could be funded for 2005. He stated that he would like to continue to move the program forward because he would rather fail at a program targeted to prevent the infestation of zebra mussels rather than surrender by doing nothing. He concluded by stating that he would be meeting with Board member Nelson and Nybeck to discuss possible concepts for a more comprehensive program on Lake Minnetonka. Halvorson stated that she understood the MN DNR was going to announce their plans for Lake Ossawinnamakee near Brainerd for the upcoming summer. She believed it would be beneficial to better understand what the MN DNR has planned for the Brainerd area because she believed it could have an indirect impact on Lake Minnetonka. C. Additional'Business, Babcock stated that he had seen a program entitled "Lake Minnetonka's Future" on public television that included a round table discussion of experts including John Barren and other water quality experts. The program included discussing the lawn products on freshwater resources, new legislation on the use of -820- Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 25, 2004 Page t5 phosphorous, and how everyone's actions can affect water quality. He Stated that he believed the program was educational and well done. He recommended staff getting a copy of it so that it could be viewed by interested Board members prior to the 3/10/04 Regular Meeting. 6. SAVE THE LAKE Babcock stated that the Board should consider appointing a new Chair for the "Save.the Lake" Advisory Committee because the current Chair, Lili McMillan, has retired from the Board. He stated that he would be agreeable to serve as the intedm Chair for the "Save the Lake Advisory Committee" while the Board seeks a permanent replacement. 7. EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR REPORT Nybeck made four comments to the Board. First, updated Board rosters were included in the packet for informational purposes. Second, he stated that he was working with Lt. Storms on the possibility of LMCD streamlining its special event permit process with the Sheriff's Water Patrol. Third, he stated that he would be meeting with a representative from the 4M fund through the League of Minnesota Cities on possibly reinvesting the LMCD's funds. He pointed out that he would update the Board on this at the 3/10/04 Regular Meeting. Fourth, he stated that he was meeting with an interested party who has expressed interest in buying one of the two remaining 1989 UMI harvesters. He pointed out that he would bdng an offer forward for the Board to consider if this interested party makes an offer. 8. OLD BUSINESS Foster updated the Board on two items. First, he stated that he had been working on the pending Miles Canning variance application with the applicant and the abutting neighbors. He pointed out that he believed a compromise had been reached with the applicant and the abutting neighbors, the compromise was currently being updated on the survey work by the applicant, and that it would be brought for consideration by the Board in the near future. Second, the Lake Uinnetonka Boat Density Sub-Committee has had two recent meetings and the question raised by Mr. Boyd earlier in the meeting regarding releasing the document has been resolved after consultation with LeFevere. He believed progress was being made and that an update would be presented to the entire Board either at the 3/10/04 or 3/24/04 Regular Board Meetings. Babcock stated that he was an active member of the Boat Density Sub-Committee and it was not established to make changes to existing policy to allow the Board to consider the pending Deephaven applications on St. Louis Bay. He stated that he believed the 1974 Boat Density Policy Statement had merits and was a usable policy, although it needs substantial updates. Nybeck clarified that the establishment of the Lake Minnetonka Boat Density Sub-Committee predated the applications submitted by the City of Deephaven that are pending. Skramstad stated that he and Nybeck had a meeting scheduled for 2/11/04 with representatives from Howards Point Marina On the possibility of them submitting a revised application for a reduced number of "off- lake" storage spaces from the previous application that was denied. He indicated that he would update the Board in the future on this meeting with Howards Point Marina. -821 - Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Regular Board Meeting February 25, 2004 9, NEW BUSINESS There was no new business. 10. ADJOURNMENT There being no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 10:11 p.m. Page 16 Tom Skramstad, Chair Jose Valdesuso, Secretary -822- -FridayFax- Supplemental budget released Thursday the governor released his plan to address the budget deficit and fund a handful of new initiatives. His supplemental budget eliminates the $160 million forecasted general fund deficit through a mix of spending reductions, revenue adjustments and one-time transfers from other funds. A weekly legislative update from the League of Minnesota Cities March 5, 2004 Page 1 and credit loss. Because of these tight levy limits, and because city officials are responsibly looking at other ways to balance their budgets, the total city property tax increase of $90 million is only $20 million higher than it was in 2001 and 2003, the last two years in which there were no aid or credit reductions to cities. Property taxes for all local governments are up 6.2 percent or $283 million over 2003 levels statewide lie did not recommend further cuts to local government aid programs, but proposed reductions and adjustments in areas such as education programs and health and human services provider reimbursements. He also proposed a 3 % reduction in state agency operating budgets for all agencies. ARMR bills heard next week Two bills sponsored by a coalition of businesses known as the Alliance for Reasonable Municipal Regulation (ARMR) are scheduled for a hearings in House and Senate committees next week. He is proposing spending $62 million on new initiatives and emergency items, including spending for several programs that would benefit cities in the areas of public safety and economic development. Expect both bodies to hold hearings on the budget recommendations over the next few weeks. See next week's Bulletin for more information. To download the governor's full supplemental budget, visit the Dept. Finance's website at www.finance.state.mn.us. Final city levies down $10 million from preliminaries Final city certified 2004 property tax levies are 7.9 percent, or $90 million higher than 2003 certified levies. This represents a $10 million reduction from the preliminary 2004 levies set last September. Cities' LGA and MVHC reimbursement were reduced $170 million for 2004. Cities over 2,500 population were only allowed to increase their levies by 60 cents for every dollar of 2004 aid I-IF 2103 (Nelson, C., R-Rochester) would impose numerous restrictions on municipal building and development fees and land dedications. As introduced, the bill would require cities to demonstrate a "direct and essential nexus" between development fees and land dedications and a specific need created by a project. It would also prohibit a city from conditioning the approval of a development or subdivision on an agreement to waive the right to later challenge the validity of a fee or dedication. The bill was tabled in a previous meeting of the House Local Government committee when testimony revealed problems with aspects of the bill. The League and other city organizations have been working with the author and proponents of this proposal to moderate the bill. I-IF 2103 will be heard in the House Local Government committee on Wednesday, March 10th at 2:30 p.m. in room 200, State Office Building.

This legislation would require cities to pay property owners' attorney fees in an eminent domain proceeding if the final damage award exceeds the condemning authority's original offer by 20 percent or more. It would also require cities prove that property taken through condemnation serves a "primarily public purpose." The League is concerned that this proposal will delay public projects and increase acquisition costs by creating a disincentive for property owners to settle. We are also concerned that the public purpose provision could have devastating consequences for local redevelopment, economic development and housing initiatives. HF 1901 will be heard in the House Local Government committee at 2:30 p.m. in room 200, State Office Building. SF 2037 is scheduled for a hearing in the Senate Judiciary committee at 12:30 p.m. in room 112, State Capitol. Homeowners' protection bill advances in House Next week the House Local Government committee will vote on legislation that addresses moisture intrusion and other problems in newly constructed homes. HF 1801 (Klinzing, R- Woodbury), also known as the Homeowners' Protection Act, requires additional building code enforcement reporting, requires pre-license education and continuing education for building contractors, provides public education for homeowners, and provides a pre-litigation dispute process and attorney fees for certain homeowners who prevail in court. Section 2 of the bill requires municipalities to provide detailed accounting of staff time devoted March 5, 2004 Page 2 to building code administration and enforcement in their annual construction and development fee reports. The bill would also require municipalities to explain surplus construction and development fees. If fees collected in a calendar year by a municipality exceed the expenses for which the fees were collected, then the municipality must: 1) describe its plan to reduce future fee revenue; 2) describe its plan to increase the quality or quantity of activities related to the fee; or 3) explain why it does not expect the surplus to be repeated in future years. The Local Government committee will hear I-IF 1801 on Wednesday, March 10 at 2:30 p.m. in room 200, State Office Building. The Senate has not scheduled a hearing on the companion bill, SF 2248 (Scheid, DFL-Brooklyn Park). Annexation action alert I-IF 2738 (P. Nelson, R-Lindstrom) was introduced this week. It is a bill that makes sweeping changes to annexation law, including requiring that all annexations of any size must be Orderly Annexations, which essentially gives townships complete veto authority over any annexation. It also completely removes individual property owners rights to have their property annexed unless the township agrees to it. It further requires all annexations to be approved by the county board as being consistent with the county comprehensive plan. This is very troubling piece of legislation and may be pushed for fast action next week. City officials who are concerned about this bill are strongly encouraged to contact the office of Rep. Dempsey, the chair of the Local Government and Metropolitan Affairs committee, to ask to be made aware of any scheduled hearing on annexation and to be given time to testify on their concerns if the bill is scheduled.

There are major meth bills traveling through the House and Senate committees in the form of HF 1989 (Fuller, R-Bemidji)/SF 1580 (Rosen, R- Fairmont). The bills deal with a number of issues surrounding the creation and abuse of the drug methamphetamine, commonly referred to as meth. An amendment has been brought forward to pre- erupt cities and counties from passing more restrictive ordinances regarding the sale of pre- cursor drugs. These pre-cursor drugs are items such as Sudafed and other cold-tablet like medicines that are used to make or "cook" meth. The pre-emptive language has been added to the Senate bill, but the League and AMC were able to defeat the measure in House Judiciary Committee. Has your city passed an ordinance regulating the sale of such products? If so, please contact Jenn O'Rourke (ph: 651.281.1261, fax: 651.215.4119, or email jorourke(~.lrnnc, org). If it is not, but its something you are discussing at the council or staff level, we'd like to know more. Many counties are acting to pass their own ordinances dealing with the other negative aspects of meth, such as cleanup of sites--but League would like to know more about what cities are up to on this issue. Legislation update Here is a quick update on just a few of the bills LMC IGR staff are tracking this week. HF 898 (Thissen, DFL-Mpls) allows inverse condemnation claims to be made against local governments under certain circumstances where a private vendor has been prohibited from providing a good or service that they previously provided. This bill is aimed at ending organized March 5, 2004 Page 3 garbage collection, but is worded broadly and will affect other areas. The bill was passed to the House floor by the Local Government and Metropolitan Affairs committee on a close vote, but may now be heading back to the Environment and Natural Resources committee for debate on the solid waste policy implications of the bill. HF 2005 (McNamara, R-Hasting) removes the sunset date on the ban on phosphorous in lawn fertilizer. It also extends the ban statewide. The bill was passed to the floor of the House with very little debate and was supported by LMC. SF 2224 (Sams, DFL-Staples) supplies $25 million of bonding authority for use by cities who are required to improve wastewater treatment facilities because of pollutant load reduction requirements under a TMDL. It also requires the state to provide a 50% cost share grant to cities who have those requirements. It was heard and laid aside for possible inclusion in the bonding recommendations of the Senate Agriculture, Environment, and Natural Resources Finance committee. Deadlines, schmedlines After not being able to negotiate on bill deadlines, the House went ahead and set their own first deadline for hearings of bills by March 12. Their very aggressive timeline has resulted in lots of long meetings into the evening in order to hear members' bills. While the Senate has also had full agendas for their hearings, the committee load has not quite matched the pace in the House. LMC staff just confirmed with Senate leadership that they have not set deadlines yet. House finance committees are putting together their bonding recommendations and many of these compilations will be before the full Capital Investment committee, chaired by Rep. Krinkie (R-Shoreview), on Thursday afternoon.

During the committee discussions, the bill was amended by Senator Julianne Ortman to remove provisions that would have provided the courts the discretion to award attorney's fees when a final award exceeds the acquiring entities offer by more than 20 percent. The attorney's award provisions had already been scaled back in an earlier author's amendment to limit attorney's fees to a maximum of $2,000 for cases involving most residential property. The bill continues to place a more rigorous burden of proof on the governmental entity before property can be acquired. Under the bill, the acquiring entity would have to "prove by a preponderance of the evidence that the taking is reasonably necessary, the taking is authorized by law and is for a public purpose." The public purpose clause raises questions about whether property acquired for economic development or redevelopment would be permissible under this statute change. The League testified in opposition to the bill based upon concerns that the changes to eminent domain statutes would unnecessarily increase the cost for the acquisition of property and that the narrower test for "public purpose" would potentially make economic development and redevelopment projects extremely difficult. Many of these projects typically involve assembling property through acquisition and the subsequently transferring the property to a private entity for redevelopment. March 12, 2004 Page 1 The Senate bill was passed and referred to the State and Local Government committee. In the House on March 9th, HF 1901 was amended in the Local Government committee to allow the award of attorney fees to a landowner in an eminent domain proceeding if the final .judgment or award exceeds by 20 percent or more the last written offer made by the condemning authority before filing a petition. The amendment also established a heightened standard of proof for takings transferred to a private entity. Under the new language, the acquiring authority must prove by preponderance of the evidence that the proposed taking is reasonably necessary and authorized by law, and is for a public, not private, purpose. Tom Scott, an attorney with Campbell Knutson who provides legal services to several cities, testified on behalf of the League. He told committee members that removing local deference and adopting a new standard for proving public purpose would severely hamper city redevelopment and economic development efforts. The League also expressed concerns that this legislation would provide a disincentive to property owners to settle which would delay transportation projects and reduce available transportation resources as cities pay more in acquisition costs and attorney fees. HF 1901, as amended, was referred to the House Transportation Finance committee. Wine bill on the shelf until next year?

The committee took testimony from two proponents and then asked it be rereferred to the Liquor subcommittee of the Commerce committee. A weekly legislative update from the League of Minnesota Cities March 12, 2004 Page 2 not going on drivers' records and about a lack of uniformity in ticketing between jurisdictions. The author acknowledged at that time that she did not have the favorable votes to pass it out and to the next committee, or the Senate floor. With that, the committee finished discussion of SF 914 and the opponents did not testify against the bill. Those testifying in favor were the MN Grape Growers Association and AFL- CIO. The League of MN Cities, the Municipal Beverage Association, and many others were listed on the committee's public agenda set to testify against. Although the bill appeared to have some bipartisan support from the cOmmittee, it was tabled after Representative Jerry Dempsey (R- Red Wing), the committee chair, said he was uncomfortable passing the bill. Since the bill did not pass out of committee by the House's first deadline of today, the bill is unlikely to move forward in the House. League staff will monitor Senate agendas for a possible hearing in that body next week. The Senate companion to HF 2253 is SF 1951 (Fischbach, R-Paynesville). The Liquor subcommittee is not expected to take up the issue this year; the vote to kill it there has an even wider margin than the full Commerce committee. Like anything, it could come back somewhere, sometime and become part of another bill--but both sides seem to admit it is not likely to happen. Administrative fine bill tabled A bill that would give cities explicit authority to issue administrative tickets for speeding violations under ten miles per hour was laid over in the House Local Government and Metropolitan Affairs committee on Wednesday. HF 2253 (Samuelson, R-New Brighton) would give cities specific authority to do what many are already doing. The bill, initiated by the Minnesota Chiefs of Police Association, was discussed at length. City officials endorsed the bill, saying it keeps low-level violations out of clogged court systems while correcting illegal driving behaviors. Opponents, including some legislators, raised concerns about the violations Pension Commission declines to reign in continued health insurance eligibility for public safety officers The Legislative Commission on Pensions and Retirement this week considered an amendment to the omnibus pension bill, HF 1086 (Smith, R-Mound), that would narrow eligibility for continued health benefits for public safety officers injured in the line of duty and dependents of officers killed in the line of duty. The language in the amendment, which has also been introduced as HF 2966 (Krinkie, R- Shoreview), would provide the benefit only when the injury or death occurs while a job- related hazardous duty is being performed. The amendment came up just before midnight at the end of a five-hour hearing. It received little discussion and was defeated on a narrow voice vote. The League is seeking the change to Minnesota Statutes 299A. 465 because use of the fund has grown beyond the purpose for which it was For more information on city legislal[ve issues, contact any m~mber of the League of Minnesota elites Intergovernmenlal R¢lali0ns learn. 651.281.1200 or 800.925.1122 -828- Xar 1Z Z804 17:31:11 Via Fax -> %Z4720GZ8 A~minis~rator Pa~e 003'§f 803 F 'd yF - ri a ax- A weekly legislative uprlatefrorn the League of Minnesota Cities created. Proponents of the original law testified the benefit was needed for extreme situations resulting from activities that make public safety work unique. But many of the claims made under the statute have been for injuries suffered during non-hazardous duty. For example, some claimants have been injured while engaging in on-the-job fitness training or office duties. The number of eligible claimants is multiplying and causing a serious deficiency in the fund created to provide this benefit. Since 1997, when M.S. 299A.465 was enacted, the Department of Public Safety (DPS) was obligated to reimburse cities for the full amount of the cost of continuing health benefits to public safety officers injured in the line of duty and for families of officers killed while on the job. Last year, due to increases in number of claimants, the fund used to compensate cities for these costs fell far short of the needed resources. Instead of increasing the fund, the Legislature amended the law to pro-rate reimbursements to cities based on the amount available and the number of eligible applicants. The 2003 law came at a significant and unanticipated cost to cities. The League and other employer groups worked unsuccessfully throughout the summer to negotiate a compromise with employee group representatives. The League is pursuing HF 2966 in order to protect the fund for applicants that make claims consistent with the law's intent and to limit unanticipated costs for cities. League staff will work with Representative Krinkie to find another opportunity in the 2004 session to address this issue. March 12, 2004 Page 3 Local Sales Tax Bills to be considered Next Tuesday at 9 a.m., the Senate Tax committee will hear several bills that would authorize specific and general sales taxes. The bills include SF 774 (Senator Mark Ourada, R- Buffalo) which would authorize a sales tax for the city of Clearwater, SF 961 (Senator Becky Lourey, DFL-Kerrick) which would authorize a sales tax for the city of Cloquet and S.F. 2618 (Senator Shells Kiscaden, I-Rochester) which would generally authorize local option sales taxes by ordinance for cities over 10,000 population. The Kiscaden bill would allow cities of the first class to impose a one-half percent sales tax by ordinance, except the city of Duluth could impose up to a 1 percent sales tax. There are no restrictions on how these tax revenues could be used. Second and third class cities could impose by ordinance sales taxes of one-half percent with the proceeds dedicated to specific capitol improvements including regional convention centers, civic centers, regional airports, libraries, public safety equipment, road or bridge or railroad improvements and flood control. The sales tax could be challenged by the citizens through a reverse referendum process. Resolution to reauthorize Transportation Equity Act The LMC has posted a resolution in support of reauthorization of the Transportation Equity Act for city councils to consider.

Sincerely yours, Standard & Poor's Ratings Services a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc. By: Steven I. Murphy-~ Managing Director cf enclosure -831 - I ,I, , II Publication date: 20-Jari-2004 Reprinted from RafingsDirect Summary: Mound, MN Credit Analysts: Winnte B Fong, Boston (1) 617-371-0316; James Wiemken, Chicago (1) 312-233-7005 Rationale Standard & Poor's Ratings Services raised its rating on Mound, Minn.'s GO bonds to 'A+' from 'A' based on the city's continued strong financial performance with minimal capital needs. The outlook is stable. Additional rating factors include: · Strong growth in the market value of the property tax base, · Above-average wealth, · Consistently Iow rates of countywide unemployment, and · Low debt burden. Given the city's nearly built-out nature, its limited growth potential tempers these factors. Mound, with a population of 9,435, is a suburban and residential community about 20 miles west of the Minneapolis-St. Paul MSA in Hennepin County. The city', which is nearly built out, occupies about 4.5 square miles of land. Mound's residents have easy access to employment opportunities in the broad economies of the Minneapolis-St. Paul region. Mound's average per capita wealth, which has been growing dudng the past decade, is currently at 147% and 159% of state and national averages, respectively. Hennepin County's unemployment rate, currently 4%, has consistently remained below state and national averages since 1990. The city has a moderately sized property tax base as measured by its current market value of $625 million, or $66,110 per capita. Market value has grown an average of 8.2% annually for the past five years. Much of this growth is attributable to the redevelopment of both commercial and residential sites. The tax base is not concentrated, and the 10 leading taxpayers account for just 8.6% of total assessed value. Mound has maintained a historically strong financial profile. Fiscal 2002 ended with a nearly $1.9 million unreserved general fund balance, or 57% of expenditures. Fund percents ranged from 37%-58% over the past six years. The city also posted a net operating surplus, after transfers, of $316,000. Property tax revenue provided 62% of total fiscal 2002 revenues of $3.9 million. Preliminary fiscal 2003 numbers indicate an increase in the general fund balance to $2.281 million, which is a 23% increase from the prior year's levels. Overall net debt burden is moderate due to the city's share of county debt. Overall net debt is $1,690 per capita but a Iow 2.6% of true value. Direct debt, which does not include overlapping debt, is also Iow at $709 per capita and 1% of market valuation. Outlook The stable outlook reflects the expectation of continued strength in the city's financial management, coupled with steady growth in its tax base.

Bless the Badge will be presented by Jim Kurtz. 6:45 is check in with the program starting at 7-8:30. Community Statement: We talked about the latest draft of the community statement. One person had a problem with being a roll model when she already smokes and finds it difficult to quit. We looked at other wording for the sentence. We decided to wait until all the surveys from the student conferences are returned and look at them in whole. Although we want the community to adopt the statement, we don't want to water down the message. Everyone took time to fill out a survey and took copies to hand out to their constituents. PROJECT PRESENTATIONS Gwenn Spence covered the school readiness project that started late in the school year. They researched best practices to add two, half time teachers to work with kindergarten and first graders in both elementary schools. The program has helped identify kids that need more help and special education services. One 4th grader that had moved from several schools was given the extra assistance to catch up to the correct grade level. The LCTS funding covers a portion of the salary and some of the supplies. Gwenn also covered Primary Project which got a bumpy start in the Westonka school district. It is going good now and we are very happy with Sandy Cook, our child associate. The first twelve week program served early childhood sites and the second twelve week program, just starting, will serve K and 1 st grade. Kim Heiar covered the youth center drop-in at Grandview middle school. Surveys are being tabulated that asks 5th graders if they feel more connected to school. 12 of the "regular" kids have done pre-tests and will do post-tests later. It is a safe place for after school play. They are finding that the kids that really need to be there are using the site. These are the kids that are not involved in other, coordinated after school activities. Having the kids pay to attend is not working very well. About 10 of the participants are using the after school activity bus. JeanAnn Thayer, Grandview counselor, sends kids to the program if they need "connections". JeanAnn Thayer covered the Kindness Retreat. This is the 7th year of the retreat for 5th graders. The kids make commitments related to kindness and remember the commitment for years after. The counselors often remind them of the commitment if things act up. The guidance and counseling staff find good connections with the 5th grade Kindness Retreat, the 8th grade Respect Retreat and the 12th grade Senior Retreat, all done by Youth Frontiers. They would like to add a 10th grade event and a parent component would fit in well with the -836- 3/19/2004 Page 4 of 4 collaborative agenda. JeanAnn also spoke about the summer school that was funded last year. Targeted services funding was cut so they did a smaller version of summer school for kids that failed a core class. A few of the kids were targeted because it would be a good place for them to be in the summer months. The school ran 4 days a week for 6 weeks. There is an academic focus but some team building exercises on Thursdays. Going along with summer school, JeanAnn discussed scholarships for the summer school bus. About 15-20 riders from the middle school needed assistance with transportation. The next WHCC meeting is March 24th. We will be voting on the budget at that meeting. Motion to adjourn. Motion passed. -837- 3/19/2004 CITY OF MOUND BUDGET EXPENDITURi:: RI:PORT Feb. 2004 16.67% Feb. 2004 YTD PERCENT BUDGE~T EXPENSE EXPENSE VARIANC_ E EXPENDED GENERAL FUND Council 72,850 2,907 5,194 67,656 7.13% Promotions 3,750 3,750 3,750 0 100.00% City Manager/Clerk 276,900 20,423 33,502 243,398 12.10% Elections 13,460 118 1,014 12,446 7.53% Finance 234,070 15,921 26,883 207,187 11.49% Assessing 79,300 0 0 79,300 0.00% Legal 135,580 5,429 5,429 130,151 4.00% City Hall Building & Srvcs 124,270 24,716 27,081 97,189 21.79% Computer 29,900 5 2,438 27,462 8.15% Police 1,301,340 107,288 193,706 1,107,634 14.89% Emergency Prepardeness 7,130 157 811 6,319 11.37% Planning/Inspections 367,880 45,577 58,568 309,312 15.92% Streets 701,130 92,307 112,576 588,554 16.06% Parks 351,820 21,563 57,057 294,763 16.22% Cemetery 9,610 (24) (24) 9,634 -0.25% Transfers 256,690 0 21,391 235,299 8.33% Cable TV 50,000 0 0 50,000 0.00% Contingencies 60,440 478 478 59,962 0.79% GENERAL FUND TOTAL 4 076 120 340,615 549.854 3,526,266 13.49% Area Fire Service Fund 638,140 26,676 41,790 596,350 6.55% Dock Fund 143,150 6,703 15,670 127,480 10.95% Capital Projects 0 28,777 28,777 (28,777) TIF 1-2 0 24,571 23,706 (23,706) Water Fund 687,240 57,252 72,224 615,016 10.51% Sewer Fu nd 1,201,940 74,637 164,457 1,037,483 13.68% Liquor Fund 559,800 62,663 80,629 479,171 14.40% Recycling Fund 167,680 9,323 19,210 148,470 11.46% Storm Water Utility 96,870 17,648 19,308 77,562 19.93% Exp-02 03/17~2004 Gino -838- GENERAL FUND Taxes Business Licenses Non-Business Licenses/Permits Intergovernmental Charges for Services Court Fines Franchise Fees Street Lighting Fee Charges to Other Dpts Other Revenue TOTAL REVENUE FIRE FUND DOCK FUND MOUND HRA WATER FUND SEWER FUND LIQUOR FUND RECYCLING FUND STORM WATER UTILITY CITY OF MOUND BUDGET REVENUE REPORT Feb. 2004 Feb. 2004 YTD BUDGET REVENUE REVENUE 2,222,510 0 0 9,150 0 1,800 273,500 9,186 18,539 368,200 0 0 257,050 6,618 11,038 100,000 0 9,788 352,000 99,707 78,413 75,000 8,727 17,833 14,000 (250) (250) 38,600 5_ 60 VARIANCE (2,222,510) (7,350) (254,961) (368,200) (246,012) (90,212) (273,587) (57,167) (14,250) (38.540) 16.67% PERCENT RECEIVED 0.00% 19.67% 6.78% 0.00% 4.29% 9.79% 22.28% -1.79% 0.16% 3,710.010 ~ 137.221 (3.572.789} 3.70% (577,818) (11,253) 178 (652,054) (1,001,597) (2,091,453) (121,217) (99,011) 674,140 5,130 96,322 115,900 77,770 104,647 0 0 178 700,000 21,189 47,946 1,202,000 103,684 200,403 2,400,000 114,972 308,547 137,400 8,278 16,183 120,500 10,847 21,489 14.29% 90.29% ERR 6.85% 16.67% 12.86% 11.78% 17.83% 0311712004 rev01 Gino -839- General Fund $1,751,863 CDBG 1,114 Area Fire Protection Services 158,104 Dock 242,049 G.O.

The waiver of platting and the release of the tax combination may be approved if it is determined to be in compliance with all City codes. The Council may impose conditions to the waiver and shall require the payment of any deferred or forgiven special assessments that have been avoided by a tax combination. The waiver may be granted without public hearings or without referral to the Planning Commission. Nothing herein shall preclude the staff or Council from referring the matter to the Planning Commission if it is determined that their advise will be helpful in determining if the request meets the City's planning and zoning objectives. If the application for a waiver of platting requests or requires any variances from any City Code requirement, the waiver application shall be processed in accordance with Subsection 330.170 of the City Code and the request shall be referred to the Planning Commission and processed as any other variance request under this subdivision code. (ORD. 79-t996 - 8-27-96) Subdivision Exemption.

The Council may, at its option, refer such questions to the Planning Commission for recommendation before action. (ORD 02-2003, 6/8/03) 330.15 General Procedure.
