Mayor's Opening Mayor Hanus provided opening and introductory remarks for the public forum. He stated that the objective of the proposed police contract with Orono is to obtain better service at a lower cost. He also commented that overthe past few years there have been reductions in City Staff by 18% and that We are leaner and doing more with less. B. Mound Interim Chief Dean Mooney, Orono Police Chief Correy Farniok, and Mound Finance Director Catherine Pausche presenting an overview of the results of shared services study, current City financial status, Council directives, and the highlights of a draft contract being proposed by Orono • Interim Police Chief Mooney commented that the police contract proposal is the culmination of about two years of study and consideration between the City, consultants and the neighboring cities of Minnetrista and Orono. The impetus for this effort is the ongoing need to review city services .(at equal. or better levels) at lower costs. This still remains the goal. Underlying this effort is the'need to right size government and city services. These are issues under review by all levels of government. Finance Director Catherine Pausche provided an overview of the financial and budget issues. City will be embarking on the 2013 budget in upcoming week and we have been looking at budget initiatives. Pausche provided information about contributing budget factors: - Mound lost 39 percent of its tax capacity from 2009 -2013 - State, county and other public agencies have diminishing aid; costs are being pushed downward - There have been significant infrastructure improvements since 2000 after years of neglect; infrastructure improvements also need to continue - The cost of pay and benefits has risen past inflation in last 10 years Several cost reductions measures have taken place since 2008: - Full time staff reduced by 18 percent since 2009 - Staff recently absorbed the Dock Administrator position • - Employees accepted a zero percent increase in 2011 -1937- Mound City Councii Minutes —August 16, 2012 Refinanced bonds and minimalized capital expenditures • - Deferral of equipment needs, where possible Flexing of public works shifts to minimize and save overtime - Created insurance task force to create savings on health insurance premiums Pausche commented that increased collaboration with other units of governments is a natural extension of these efforts. It was noted that Mound currently provides similar shared services for fire to adjacent communities. Interim Chief Mooney summarized the Police /Fire Consultant Study and Proposal - Process involved 2 years of study /negotiations - Current positioned vacancies maintained.to allow for consolidation - Potential savings of $200K - Proposed contract will allow us to join with another agency without reducing police department staff - Savings come from economies: of scale - More administrative efficiency - Scheduling flexibility - Program administration maintained - Supervisory coverage - Support services improved - Expanded career development/promo opportunities available in a larger department • Mooney summarized the directives from Mayor and City Council for the police contract proposal Must have significant savings which means 10 percent or more Police services' levels..and programs must be maintained Mound Officers.must be treated fairly in the process Mooney commented that he has never served with a finer group of officers in his professional career and that in the, previous proposal and discussions with Minnetrista there were key elementsfor Mound that could not be achieved. Mooney commented that Orono's proposal would provide police services to the City of Mound that meets the needs and conditions set by Mound. The proposed Orono police contract is for 10 years. The cost to Mound is known for next five years. Proposed contract amount is $1:545M for year 1 and includes a cap. There would be a 2.5% increase for years 2 to 5, and 1 to 5 percent increase for years 6 to 10 that is tied to the Consumer Price Index (CPI). Mooney introduced Orono Police Chief Correy Farniok to the Council, Staff, audience members and provided an overview of Chief Farniok's background and experience. Chief Farniok provided a summary of Orono's proposal including a framework of positions. He commented that the proposal provides for 3 officers on duty 24/7 and for • supervisory coverage 20 hours a day. -1938- Mound City Council Minutes — August 16, 2012 Mooney explained that under Orono's proposal all Mound Officers would be hired by Orono with exception of Officer Sepanet who is filling in for the position formerly held by • John McKinley. Mooney summarized some of the key points of Orono's proposal: - Nearly all officers at current rank and assignment are maintained - Credit for seniority - No probation. Chief mentioned that this was one of the main sticking points with earlier discussions with Minnetrista - Police records system would be integrated and upgraded - Key programs are maintained. He mentioned DTF /SRO /DARE /Crime Free Housing /Police Reserve /Human Resource (ie, Sojourn, etc.) - Mound will be part of the Police Advisory Board Membership - -Mound Fire Department uses a� si nilar,model -- Encourages input for department decisioh,paking - -Gives each contract city 4_.v * in operations and policy (resource allocation, special "events, capital expenditure, etc.) Orono's proposal provides for a police precinct station in Mound. This maintains face to face customer service and is locally based in Mound which has been Mound's practice for years Mooney outlined the anticipated transitional costs related to the proposal: - Equipment transfer (Mound marked and unmarked cars to Orono) - ERU equipment to Orono • - Computers and work station (both in squad cars and building) to Orono - Records conversion - Personnel cost adjustments - Uniform changes - Squad car modifications - Standardizing firearms - Training - Expanded Orono locker room to accommodate Mound officers in Orono locale Mooney stated that transitional costs are estimate not to exceed $80K. Interim Chief Mooney summarized that the partnership with the Orono is an opportunity to maintain or enhance our current high level of Police Service with significant savings to the City of Mound. C. Members of Mound's Police Patrol Union LELS Local No. 266 to provide feedback on the proposed contract for police services provided by the City of • Orono igxN Mound City Council Minutes —August 16, 2012 • Mound Officer Dan Niccum commented that he grew up in Mound and that his mother and grandmother were police matrons in Mound. He started with the Mound PD in the 1980s as a police reserve and wanted to have a career here. He stated that Mound's best option is to go Orono since maintaining the current department doesn't work. Mound Officer Jamie Wittke stated that she has served in the Mound PD since 1999. She commented that Mound's officers have been in limbo for 2 years and that they know ultimately Mound's department will go away. She has supported the Orono police proposal since the start and that Mound will still be here. She also commented that she also supported previous talks with Minnetrista even when her job was in jeopardy. City Manager Kandis Hanson stated that Mound Officer Jamie Wittke will be part of a KARE 11 news story later today. Mound Officer Amy Swanson stated that has been with the Mound Police Department for 21 years. She commented that the last 2 years have been trying and a long frustrating process. She shared that several officers have dedicated their careers to the Mound Police Department and stated it is tough and emotional matter. She.hopes that the decision will involve the citizens of Mound. D. Mayor's comments and invitation to the audience to step forward and provide comments and opinions or ask questions regarding the proposed contract for police services provided by the City of Orono. • Mayor Hanus indicated that we are here to hear from the community and what it has to say about the police service proposal. He commented that the Council does not intend to make a decision tonight. Mayor asked if there were any questions from members of the City Council before starting the public forum portion of the meeting. Ray Salazar asked Chief Famiok about scheduling that was to include 3 officers and 1 sergeant at all times iVas foi Motand or for all cities. Chief Famiok responded that 3 officers would be duty from. 0700 -1500 for Mound /Navarre /Spring Park; from 1500 -0300 4 patrol officers and 1 sergeant would be on duty; from 0300 -0700 3 officers would be on duty. There would be 1 Patrol Officer to be assigned to a shift, as. needed. Jerry Dodds, 6144 Beachwood Road, asked Chief Farniok if 3 officers are for Mound or for Orono's service areas which include Spring Park, Navarre and Minnetonka. Chief Farniok commented that he was referring to the service area. Mooney stated that Mound always has an officer on duty. However, there are always times when that officer provides assistance to others and vise versa. This is a cooperative agreement. Jerry Dodds asked if there are outs if we don't like the contract. Mayor Hanus indicated that there are performance measures in the contract. Bob Boese, 2620 Setter Circle, asked about Orono's current contract for police officers. Chief Farniok responded that Orono currently has two patrol officers for contracted cities. Mr. Boese asked about the number of additional square miles added for Mound. City Manager Hanson . responded that the additional area is approximately three square miles. -1940- Mound City Council Minutes — August 16, 2012 Council member Gesch asked Mooney about an earlier slide that was shown as part of Staff's presentation which showed 20 supervisory hours and where Mound currently is at. Mooney • stated there are about 16 supervisory hours, however this doesn't account for their days off. He stated that the proposed Orono contract would "up" the current levels. John McKinley, 5948 Hillcrest Road, stated that he has the utmost of respect for the Orono Police Chief and for Orono's police officers. He talked about the service levels needed for the police department and stated that no one can guarantee that there will be an officer in Mound and it's possible for no officer to be here. He stated that this plan falls short of maintaining current levels. There are also many people on both sides of this issue many of which are not here this evening. He commented that this is much too important of an issue not to put to a vote to the citizens of Mound. Mayor Hanus commented that the contract states that, Orono must provide the same level of services that we currently have. Mr. McKinley stated that the Orono proposed contract doesn't state what the current level of service is in Mound: Nick Stoiaken, 4948 Bartlett Boulevard, asked if we have to get rid of the,police department. Mayor Hanus responded we don't have to eliminate the department however, in order to keep it, we would have to raise taxes. Mr. Stoiaken asked" if the problem was the high . salaries of our employees. Stoiaken stated that the City's salary for its employees is causing Mound to lose its police department. Mayor Hanus commented that employee salaries are not part of this agenda item. Stoiaken asked when his information could be presented. Staff indicated this item could be discussed as part of the City's 2013 budget discussions. Stoiaken asked for a specific date and Finance Director Pausche indicated that Aug. 28 would be the date and that he could present information as part of the three minute public comment period. • Peter Meyer, 5748 Sunset Road, stated he would like to have his Police Department accountable to his City Council members. He feels strong local government is the keystone, the foundation of our community's freedom. He has nothing against Orono's police department, but if it costs him a few more dollars, his freedom is much more important. He thinks we need to look at more than justthe dollar costs. Hanes statedlhat the Council doesn't have control of the Police Department, but most control is by state statute. John Evans, 2025 Arbor Lane, stated that consolidation from an economic standpoint makes sense and thinks we should give it a shot. Spring Park Mayor Sarah Reinhardt stated that City Manager Hanson invited her to attend the meeting to share their experiences having Orono provide police services to their City. Mayor Reinhardt stated Spring Park has been with Orono for years and their officers and staff are community minded and professional. Orono is very responsive to their needs and Spring Park is proud to call them their police department. It was noted that Orono has excellent response time. She also mentioned that they tend to erase the community service boundaries and understand that Orono is in the area. She stated that Police Commission meetings are quarterly and that Chief Farniok is always available and very responsive. Don Jerde, 2521 Lakewood Lane, stated that the Council has given a lot of thought to the situation especially with regard to the cost. He questioned if we have asked ourselves "what if this doesn't work and what would be the cost to reinstate the police department." He also stated that there has been talk about moving City Hall to the Public Safety building and if this is • -1941- Mound City Council Minutes —August 16, 2012 the case it would be virtually impossible to reinstate the police department in the future. He • believes keeping our police department is needed. Jeff Andersen, 2206 Commerce Boulevard, asked if the bottom line was saving money. Mayor Hanus stated his statement was accurate but also mentioned maintaining service. Mr. Andersen stated that if saving $200K was the impetus, why are we then not listening to citizens who want to help the City save money. He commented that the individual who previously wanted to talk about salaries should be allowed to speak as it was about alternatives to save money and that all ideas should be discussed. Mayor stated he is duty bound to maintain the focus of the meeting. If other discussions and topics are also to be included, we will not get anywhere. John Hubler, 5448 Breezy Road, stated that have been a lot changes in Mound and that they have been good. The police department existed for 83 years. He has been a Mound resident for 28 years. He has supported police department budget increases and decreases. He stated that information that was prepared and disseminated:by Mound management and staff is slanted. Hubler wanted to know about the responsd' "time; also about'actual cost of the future years. He stated we cannot control overhead costs. Hubler suggested looking at some new ideas and examples. We could eliminate one salary of $92K and not replace the chief. Also could consider creating a new Public Safety Officer. position. He also suggested hiring an unbiased auditor and also suggested having a few community volunteers to audit future City department reports. Hubler commented that are some talented baby boomers in our community who are retired and could help the Council. He asked if the citizens are going to be allowed to vote on the police department contract. He suggested taking the pressure off the Council and put the question on a ballot. He asked what is next, the Mound Fire Department or outsourcing • of City staff. Dave Osmek asked about the creation of a Public Safety Officer position that would merge the positions of the Police Chief and Fire Chief and whether you would be able to find a person with those credentials Hubler indicated that there are such positions and that the City may have to pay more, however, the credentials maybe would allow for a higher salary. Osmek asked for examples and asked they be provided, if available. Hubler stated he would provide the information and also commented that he is interested in discussions about salary/budget. Hubler asked Mooney if all officers agree with the proposal and if they have 100 percent support. Mooney, that Mound officers are free to express their opinion for their benefit. Finance Department Director Pausche stated that with the current proposal we are sharing a police chief and commented that there are benefits of economics of scale and opportunities for our officers. She stated we need to give this a chance to work and requested the community remain open. Our work is not done beyond the police department discussions for budgeting purposes. Pension, health care, and union negotiations continue to be unknown variables. Mr. McKinley stated that once the police department is gone, the streets and public works departments will be next. The City has seven department heads. City Manager Hanson stated that there is not nor has there been a plan to outsource public works. However, the City has previously have looked at sharing storage space. Mayor Hanus talked about some of the incentives programs offered in recent years to try to encourage individuals at the top to retire early in order to save money as well as continuing our • efforts to do more with less. -1942- Mound City Council Minutes — August 16, 2012 Mayor Hanus called a recess at 8:50 p.m. to allow for tape change, and reconvened the meeting at 9:08 p.m. • Amy Swanson, who is an officer with the Mound Police Department, summarized what she heard tonight which is the citizens would like an opportunity to vote and the decision should be left to them. She stated she has deep respect for Orono and its Police Department, however, the citizens should be heard. Mayor Hanus stated that Orono's intent is to divide their area into precincts so as to provide high levels of service which was confirmed by Chief Farniok. Richard Hawks — 2636 Setter Circle, stated he has lived in Mound for 38 years. He asked what is the hurry to do this and why have the citizens been kept in the dark? He stated that we are going to spend $2.5M to save $200K and that he would he,willing to contribute $50 a month in taxes to keep the police department. The Mound Police Department is a winning department and always has been. Hanus talked about the savings with the proposal. The present PD costs $1.8M . Orono would be paid $1.5M with the proposed contract. Mayor Hanus responded to Hawks' question about why hurry to do this. Hanus commented that we have been talking about this for 2 years. One of the reasons about moving now and getting it in the 2013 budget is that if we don't we will have to round r out our PD which'will require additional money. Also, once the department is rounded out, it is not favorable for contract discussions. City Manager Kandis Hanson indicated all along it was her preference to have communication along the way, however, it needed to be amenable to both parties. Contract information was • included in both the Laker and Lakeshore Weekly and included interviews. A Q&A was prepared by administrative and management staff and was included in the recent edition of the City Contact. The purpose of the Q&A was to provide available information and respond to questions that we were hearing. Mayor Hanus clarified that we were providing information that was correct and that projects are rolled out when they are developed. Shirley Hawks, 2636 Setter Circle; stated that we -have to pay to incarcerate prisoners which we always have done. The Mound Police: Department is a 24/7 department. We are always on duty which attributes to budget and mope staff. It was mentioned that you are not looking at public works however the parks department was discussed a few years ago. Osmek commented that mowing responsibilities including part time parks department personnel, was discussed a few years ago. Ms. Hawks further commented that she has full respect for the Orono Police Department. If Mound Police Department and Orono starts patrol in 2012, it will be hiring ten PD Staff. However, one employee is not included at all. Mound is a city with a substantial business district, 3 banks, and is an island. In 2011 over 19,000 calls for service were done. She also provided some additional service statistics from 2011. She stated her position has not been mentioned after 35 years in the Mound PD and that she has not been approached by the City Manager. She also mentioned several of the duties of the Mound Police Department and administrative staff. Her position was completely overlooked. Kandis Hanson commented that you cannot make announcements before information is available and that Mooney has visited with Ms. Hawks. Ms. Hawks stated that she is not fit in • this equation and also mentioned PERA. Mooney added that there have been discussions -1943- Mound City Council Minutes — August 16, 2012 about possible scenarios but that he was not in any position to make promises or commitments. • He stated that we are here tonight to try and resolve the ambiguities for the Mound Police Department personnel. Nancy Swanson, 4941 Gumwood Road. Ms. Anderson would prefer to keep our department and has great respect for Chief Farniok and the Orono department. She asked if it is time to consolidate with another City. She listened to earlier comments from Finance Director Pausche and asked if this going to be enough to keep this City going for the duration of the PD contract proposal. If we are that bad off, this is a temporary fix and we need to look at the whole picture. She asked if we should wait a year and look at consolidation. Mayor stated we are not in dire straits. We are doing what we have been doing which is operating better, doing more and for less cost. Again, we are not in dire straits and talked about why we want to do it this year. If we don't, we will have to make the police department whole and it makes it much more difficult to do. It was discussed that these discussions will continue which is what we have been doing over the past two years. City Manager Hanson mentioned that she has prepared a statement and believes this is the appropriate time to present it. The prepared statement "The Right Sizing of Mound" was read by Hanson. John McKinley asked about an earlier comment from Mayor Hanus about assignment of officers. Chief Farniok stated that the service boundaries are a work in progress and for the • majority of the time there will be two cars in the "southern area" which includes Navarre, Spring Park, Minnetonka Beach and Mound. John Hubler stated he wished we had options and. complimented City Manager Hanson about how the Public Safety Building project was layed out years ago which included options. She commented -that employees are'' ot allowed to speak freely which is not fair. He asked Mooney if Staff was included 'in the process. City Manager Hanson stated that we provide correct information to our staff so it can be disseminated. However, rurhor dissemination is discouraged. Kris Williams, 5944 Hillscrest Road, stated that when her father couldn't breathe, she called 911 and the police arrived within 2 -3 minutes. She had a similar experience with an emergency call for her mother. The public comment /forum portion of the meeting was closed at 9:46. E. Review /Discussion by Mound City Council Members on the proposed Contract for Police Services by the City of Orono, with any further direction to be provided to staff. Mayor Hanus asked for questions from the Council. Council member Salazar asked about page 1876 in the agenda packet about finding funding . referenced in the contract. Chief Farniok stated that both departments would have a member in the task force for funding. -1944- Mound City Council Minutes —August 16, 2012 Council member Osmek stated he had skeptism with the Minnetrista proposal and has healthy • level with the Orono proposal as well. He also stated that salaries would be part of future discussions. Osmek requested some additional information and suggested a Gantt chart that shows the Orono and Mound Department for a typical time period and also what the proposal would do . He agreed with John McKinley's comments that Mound's current performance standards need to be clarified, especially for severability clauses and provisions in the contract. These performance measures need to be included and needs to be clear. Osmek stated that as part of the preliminary budget we could project a "full compliment" and can always go down from there. He asked about a referendum; and whether it can be included as part of the November general election. The question needs," eedsto be asked. Osmek also commented that he wanted everyone to know that we are; not' 'Stockton, California and that Mound is not going bankrupt. He further commented thOMoupd received a favorable bond rating for its recent bond refinance. This is an effort to look at an opportunity for service at a lower cost. Mayor Hanus commented that he does not believe there is time to get it on, the ballot and that it would be good to know. He stated that the City is in good condition and referenced the annual audit report which includes comments about sound financial information, sound management and encouraged people to read it. He stated that we can raise taxes and that ''maintaining current tax levels is hard. Osmek stated that he does not want a referendum on a special election and if this is not able to be done this fall, it is not an option. He asked If we were to wait until after the election and could be voted by the citizens, if we would be able to meet the contract obligations. Chief • Mooney stated this was not likely. Council member Gesch stated that we have a great police department who would be a part of the Orono police department. She stated that they won't be any different than who they are now and that they will still be award winning'officers. It was stated by many people that both the Orono Chief and Police Department are excellent. Council member Salazar stated that he was not on committee and that he is here to listen to the service proposal discussion as - well. He stated that there is a lot of emotion here tonight as expected and anticipated and that his job as Council member is to take out the emotion and look at it from a business perspective; what is best for the City. He stated that he has been in Mound for 20 years and wants what is best for our town both now and the future. This proposal provides advancement opportunities for our officers and officer retention and maintains good officers. He stated that he feels this is a good option, however, more time is needed to evaluate where we are going for 2013. He stated a referendum would be good if there is time, which there may not be. Mayor Hanus stated that what is being proposed is not new or exclusive to Mound. He also wanted to clarify that his job as Mayor is to maintain the meeting and keep it on topic. He extended his regrets to the individual who spoke earlier and wanted to discuss employee salary information and that the individual will have the opportunity to be heard at a future Council meeting, which is probably Aug. 28 • -1945- Mound City Council Minutes —August 16, 2012 Nancy Swanson indicated that she was someone concerned that it was just stated that we are . not in dire straits and if that is the case, we should have been adequately funding the police department and also stated that she was concerned about officer well being. 7.

Staff is recommending approval of 3 minor amendments to City Code Chapter 119 (signage) to extend the timelines for temporary banners from 15 days to 30 days and from 10 days to 30 days for portable signs; also to allow for administrative approval for portable sign placement on public property.

U As the Council is aware, often we often receive requests to extend these time periods especially for special events such as the OLL Incredible Festival, the MFD Fish Fry, the Spirit of the Lakes Festival, etc. Staff's position is that extending the time periods for temporary • signage to 30 days and allowing for administrative approval of portable signs on public property will reduce the number of special requests for temporary signage.

Staff recommends approval subject to any comments from the City Council and Staff. • -1949- CITY OF MOUND .

This is an ongoing process and requires ongoing compliance. The law requires that female classes not be paid consistently below male classes of "comparable value." Comparable value is the job evaluation rating or points assigned to a job class and the focus of this booklet. Establishing job evaluation ratings is the first step in the pay equity process. It is important to remember that comparable value or a job evaluation rating does not include seniority or performance; rather it is an evaluation of job content. Job content is measured by the skill, effort responsibility and working conditions required of the job class. In addition, job evaluation should not be interpreted strictly as a rigid "pay for points" system where each point is worth "x" dollars. Pay equity can be achieved and requirements of the law met even though some jobs with same points do not receive exactly the same pay. The second part of the pay equity process is pay analysis and more information is available on this and compliance requirements at www.mmb.state.mn.us The State Job Match System of job evaluation is intended as a straightforward, simple tool to help local governments effectively analyze the jobs in their jurisdictions by matching up job • descriptions with descriptions for state jobs that have already been rated. Once the descriptions have been matched, a rating or "job points" can be assigned to the local government job. Job evaluation is not an exact science and if done well, will involve thorough discussion and unbiased decisions. Job analysis must be completed before pay analysis is done. I. Description of the Job Match System & Website Job match is a simple, inexpensive way to assign points to jobs in your jurisdiction by matching them to descriptions of state jobs found in this booklet. To make it easier, this booklet is divided into 17 job categories. In each category there are groupings of jobs. Within each group the state titles are listed from lowest to highest ranking. There are five columns on each page as follows: • Column 1: Titles of jobs typically found in local government. Note: PES Benchmark refers to a "Public Employment Survey" done by the state's job evaluation consultant, Hay and Associates. • Column 2: Titles of jobs found in state government. • Column 3: Job evaluation points assigned to state jobs using the Hay and Associates method of rating jobs. • Column 4: The range of points for the job that is listed. • Column 5: Overview and brief job description. • -1964- If you cannot find a match in this booklet, check our web site. There are approximately 1800 job descriptions and point ratings for state jobs on the Minnesota Management & • Budget's (MMB's) web site at www.mmb.state.rnn.us You can view job descriptions and classification at hgp: / /www.mmb.state.mn.us /staff -hr /class - specs You can find corresponding Hay point ratings at http://www.mmb.state.mn.us/hay-ratings II. The Basics of Job Evaluation Although the job match method is simpler than many other job evaluation systems, the same basic principles apply: • You are evaluating job classes, not individuals who hold the job. As you review the list for a possible match, ask yourself how the job would be described if the current employee(s) in the class were all gone tomorrow and you needed to hire someone new. • You must be as objective as possible. Don't "work backwards" by first determining how much you think classes should be paid and then finding job matches which will fit this category. Guard against sources of bias by having more than one person review job matches and/or by establishing an employee committee to discuss evaluations. • The more employees are involved in the process of evaluating jobs, the more likely they are to understand and accept the system you use. III. How To Use The Job Match List • Step 1. Decide who will review jobs for possible matches. This can be done by an individual or by a committee including employees, elected officials and other interested persons. You can guard against bias by having more than one person involved in the job match process. Step 2. Gather information about job classes in your jurisdiction. This information can come from reading position descriptions, interviewing employees, interviewing supervisors, or from sending a questionnaire to employees and/or supervisors. You may want to have employees and supervisors review and revise job descriptions before beginning the job match process. Step 3. List all classes in your jurisdiction. Next to each job class begin to identify matches between jobs in your jurisdiction and jobs described in the booklet. Your jobs will probably fall into three categories: A. Jobs that Match or Nearly Match: This category will probably account for about 90 percent of the jobs in your jurisdiction. If the job in your jurisdiction matches closely with the state job write the state title and the standard point rating next to the local title. • -1965- B. Slotted Jobs: • Although there is no direct match for some jobs, it is often possible to determine where the job fits in the overall hierarchy. Review the jobs which may have already been matched on your worksheet. You may be able to identify jobs which are at the same level as the one you're trying to find a match for and give it the same number of points. If you can't find a job at the same level, you may be able to determine that it fits between two jobs you have already matched. For example, you may have a job which you feel fits between a job with 200 points and another job with 250 points. You could assign a point value then somewhere between 200 and 250. C. Multi- Function Jobs: Your job matches with more than one of the jobs on the job match list. If duties outside of the description comprise only about 5% or less of the job, do not consider the job a multi - function job. Instead, match it with the primary function of the job. There are two methods to assign jobs that are multi - functional. The following is an example of a multifunction job and two methods to evaluate that job. Example: Equipment Operator: Possible matches on the list Highway Maint. Supervisor — 213 pts. Transportation Associate — 156 pts. Method 1: Match with the Highest Rated Job In this case the highest rated job is the Highway Maintenance Supervisor with 213 • points. The rationale for this is that your job requires the employee to have the skill, effort, responsibility and working conditions of the higher rated job, even though this fob is only part of the employee's duties. This option is most appropriate when the employee performs the higher -rated job more than half of the time. Method 2: Pro -rate the Points According to Time Spent In this case you would evaluate the amount of time spent on each of the job functions and then multiply that percentage of time spent by the number of points assigned to each function. Highway Maintenance Supervisor - 50% of time. 213 x 50% = 106.5 pts. Transportation Associate - 50% of time. 156 x 50% = 78 pts. Total = 185 pts. This method should not be used for only occasional work in one of the jobs and it becomes less valid if it is used to match a single job with more than two or three state jobs. Also, it would not be valid to add together total original points. For example, you would not add 213 pts. + 156 pts. and assign 369 points for the equipment operator position. When all the jobs have been matched, review the overall ranking of jobs and the points assigned to each job to make sure it makes sense in the context of your organization. • IV. Definitions: Types of Supervision Supervision: Use of the word "supervision" indicates a greater amount of control is • p p g exercised over positions in that class than for positions in a class using the word "direction" in the definition. Supervision levels are differentiated by the specificity and application to the technical and administrative details of work assignments. Three standard levels of supervision are used: Immediate supervision means an employee in the class works under close supervision where the work assignments are well - detailed and well - prescribed by the superior. It does not necessarily mean that the individuals are in close physical proximity to one another. Little opportunity exists to exercise personal initiative, discretion or judgment. The employee is held responsible only for the accurate and proper application of the steps of the well - established work process. • General supervision means an employee in this class is under fairly close supervision administratively, but the worker is given some latitude technically. The assignments and objectives are prescribed, but the methods are not typically reviewed or controlled while the work is in progress. The employee is expected to take the initiative in solving most problems of detail, except those which are new or unusually complex in nature. Limited supervision provides considerable freedom from both technical and administrative oversight while the work is in progress. In addition to the previously mentioned conditions of general supervision, the employee has: freedom from control • over the sequence of assignments, a substantial degree of responsibility for determining what shall be done next, and a substantial degree of independence in planning and organizing the employee's own work.

Employers are refilling positions cut during the recession, adding new ones, and making replacement hires to address attrition and turnover. Preparing for Growth: Putting the Right Pieces in Place Demand is climbing for financial analysts who can help their organizations formu- late expansion strategies while continuing to monitor costs. Companies also are filling core operational accounting positions in areas such as accounts payable, accounts receivable and collections in reaction to a higher volume of business, The market for skilled talent is tightening, however, and firms are finding it more difficult to locate professionals who meet all their requirements. In some specialties, top performers are receiving multiple offers and counteroffers. Recruiting challenges may become more pronounced, resulting in lost productivity and additional burden on existing staff. Already, the hiring cycle is growing longer, as reflected in a Robert Half survey of chief financial officers (CFOs). 1 c ?' t 5 f sk 3e Ya 'rtt + ` A `. �' it . # 4 . :°n€ .Yr �.�«. 4 1 0 .'

The contract from Orono reflects standardized language and dispute resolution procedures that exist in other contract for services between cities. It has been reviewed by the City attorneys, Shared Service Committee Members, and the council members of both communities. The Mound Council is asked to vote on the contract at the August 23` meeting for all of the reasons laid out in the press release as well as the implications for the 2013 preliminary budget and levy that will be approved at the September 11 meeting. At the August 16 Public Forum, Staff was requested to provide further information on response times and shift coverage. It should be noted that we are adding our 10 officers for a total combined department of 27 sworn officers. Our coverage and response resources can only get better. Please see the attached memo from Interim Police Chief Dean Mooney on the subject. Staff acknowledges the recent opposition to this contract and does not believe this reflects the sentiments of the broader community. The July Mound "City Contact" Newsletter was mailed to every home and two pages were devoted to the subject of contracting for police services. Ample press coverage has been given on the topic since 2011. Little or no feedback was received except from the individuals who have written to the editor and have appeared at the workshops and public forum. It is the City's obligation to deliver services as efficiently and cost effectively as possible. Our officers have clearly stated that the uncertainty is worse than the actual decision and we know we would have difficulty replacing them if they were to move on to other opportunities. In that event, the costs of hiring, recruiting, equipping and training new officers would be expensive, and qualified officers would be hesitant to join a department whose future is so uncertain. Now is the time to focus on the benefits of this contract, for which there are many, and the need to bring decisive closure to the issue. Staff appreciates the energy and thought the Council has put into this decision and asks that you let us know in advance of Tuesday if there is any other information that needs to be provided. • is • -1995- FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE • Kandis Hanson City Manager 952 - 240 -5244 August 21, 2012 A public forum was held on the proposed contract for police services with the City of Orono on Thursday, August 16 The City Council will vote on whether or not to approve the Contract for Law Enforcement Services by the City of Orono at the Tuesday, August 28 City Council meeting. The City Council has been evaluating its options for public safety services since early 2011. On October 29, 2011, the Council received the recommendations of Emergency Services Consulting International, who performed a feasibility study for shared or cooperative law enforcement services between the cities of Mound, Minnetrista and St. Bonifacius. That study concluded a consolidated police department would be better because a larger department allows for more scheduling flexibility, supervisory coverage, and better operational, investigative, and administrative capabilities. Mound recognized it will be able to attain the same or enhanced coverage while saving money. Discussions with Minnetrista followed and Minnetrista presented Mound the framework for a contract for police services. The Mound Council held special workshops to discuss the proposal on April 11 and May i which included public input. The Council determined three requirements that had to be met to • proceed with discussions: • The savings for Mound must be 10 %+ or an average of $200,000 annually (i.e., a compelling savings) to consider contracting for services with another department • The police service levels and programs must be maintained • Mound officers must be treated fairly in the process When Minnetrista and Mound failed to reach agreement on some of these requirements, negotiations were suspended and the public was notified via a joint press release issued on June 12, 2012. Mound followed with another press release on June 18, 2012, to clarify some issues and state that the City of Mound will continue to evaluate its options for policing. The press release also stated the City recognizes the need to bring closure to this issue and set the course for the department for the next decade and beyond. According to City Manager Kandis Hanson, "Much was learned from our discussions with Minnetrista and this will aid in a more expedient decision in the near future." Mound approached the City of Orono in June about the possibility of a contract for police services. Progress was made and hurdles were quickly overcome to bring forward an agreement that met the three requirements stated above. In addition, other barriers were worked out with the union members. When a viable agreement looked plausible, the Mound Study Committee embarked on a communication • plan which included a two -page Question and Answer insert in the Mound "City Contact" newsletter that was mailed to residents on July 23, 2012. In addition, a press release was issued on August 6th -1996- inviting the residents to a Public Forum on the police contract for services proposed by Orono that was scheduled to take place August 16` All of this information is available on the City's website at • www.cityofmound.com The public forum on August 16` lasted more than three hours. A Power Point presentation by the Interim Police Chief, Dean Mooney, assisted by Finance Director Catherine Pausche and Orono Police Chief Correy Farniok, summarized the background of this study, including the reasons for the need for cost savings and the highlights of Orono's proposed contract for police services. The entire meeting may be viewed on the Lake Minnetonka Communications Commission website (www.lmcc - tv.org). Two Mound police officers spoke in support of the change; a third spoke supportively but suggested that the public weigh in on a decision. The Mayor of Spring Park, Sarah Reinhardt, gave testimony of her satisfaction with the level of police services provided by the Orono Police Department. Current and former police department employees spoke, as well 11 members of the public. Although some of the speakers requested, and the Council discussed, a possible public referendum on the contract, the Police Study Committee is recommending the Mound City Council proceed with a vote on the contract for police services with the City of Orono based on the following reasons: • Attendees praised the quality and professionalism of Chief Correy Farniok and the Orono Police Department. • • The three main requirements of the Mound City Council have been met by Orono. • Delaying this action will increase the level of uncertainty for the police officers, possibly motivating them to seek employment elsewhere. It would be very difficult to fill open positions in this environment. • Orono is not interested in a protracted decision as that creates uncertainty for their officers. • Mound's contracts with the patrol officers and police supervisor's unions expire December 31. • The Police Chief and Lieutenant positions are currently vacant. Interim Police Chief Dean Mooney's commitment ends at one year. It takes up to six months to hire a full -time chief. • The unions have reached the agreements necessary under the proposal. Mound officers stand to get a wage increase, have more promotional opportunities, and a higher level of street supervision under the contract for services. • Contract for services succeed if they are executed in an environment of mutual trust and partnership. • Failure to approve the proposed contract will significantly increase taxes needed to restore and sustain law enforcement services in Mound. Decisions of this magnitude will always bring about public debate. How to provide for public safety at a sustainable cost is a debate going on all across the country. Potential savings in other services provided by the City have and will continue to be explored. Ironically, the savings from a contract for police r� 6�10IN services are primarily derived from sharing the salary of a Police Chief and Lieutenant with Orono, in i s other words, Police Department "management salaries," which are the focus of some of the public. Circumstances beyond anyone's control (i.e., an international financial crisis) caused Mound's tax base to erode by 40% between 2009 and 2013, which will result in the Mound tax rate to surpass 50% in 2013. Even so, the City's bond rating remained at AA Stable because, to quote Standard and Pool's Credit Analyst: "Mound's economic indicators remain very strong, in our view, despite recent declines in the tax -base valuation." In addition, the report stated: "The stable outlook reflects our expectation that the city will maintain balanced operations and very strong reserves." The City of Mound Council and management are committed to seize all possible opportunities to deliver services as economically and efficiently as possible, without compromising quality. Residents can expect continued initiatives to reinvent the way the City delivers services to ensure Mound continues to grow and prosper in the next century of our City's history. • • • MEMORANDUM Date: August 23, 2012 To: Mayor and Council From: Dean Mooney, Interim Police Chief Subject: Police Response Times At the August 16 meeting, the Council requested additional information on comparative response times for Priority 1 (Emergency) calls in Mound vs. Orono. In 2011, Orono Police averaged 5.7 minutes and Mound Averaged 4.1 minutes response time for Priority 1 Calls. It is important to point out that Orono has a response area of 26 square miles and the City of Mound is 3 square miles which explains the difference. The proposed policing plan will add 10 Officers to the combined department, while adding only 3 square miles to the response area. This disproportionate addition of officers to the • new response area of 29 square miles will allow for better zone distribution of police squads, which will maintain the excellent response times in the Mound area, while improving response times for the department as a whole (see Police Zone map). When coverage is down to 3 cars, each zone will have a Squad assigned. As coverage increases to 4 -5 cars, the additional cars will be available to assist in any zone where additional help is needed. It should also be noted that the Mound Police Station will be maintained as a base of operations for the Mound zone car in the new zone configuration. This will allow Mound to maintain the relative advantage of service and response times we currently experience. I would point out that response times will vary due to factors such as traffic density, weather and road conditions, street reconstruction, and dispatching procedures. Finally, I would caution the Council not to consider response time as the supreme indicator of police service. Having police officers well led, trained, equipped and motivated will be the ultimate determiner of police service. This is clearly the case with the Mound and Orono Police Departments. While no one would argue that response times are not significant, it is clear the current response times of both departments are excellent, and are comparable to those of surrounding jurisdictions. • -1999- � §� .

With the recession that followed, available tax increment is currently not sufficient to provide for the debt service on the bonds, nor will it be for the uncertain future (see page 2 for an explanation of "TIF. ") In 2009, the HRA and the City of Mound entered into an agreement to authorize an interfund loan in order to allow the City to use funds other than available tax increment to make the required payments on the bonds. The available tax increment continues to fall short as redevelopment has stagnated and land values have declined in the Lost Lake District. Therefore, in addition to the amount the City of Mound is levying to make principal and • interest payments on the 2009D bonds, we are proposing to set -up an interfund loan using Villa Dock revenues to also contribute to the debt service. This loan would be subordinate to the debt levy interfund loan, but in the event that available tax increment is sufficient, amounts would be repaid to the Dock Fund Escrow Account in order to help fund future dredging of Lost Lake. We are proposing to increase the Villa Dock Fees from the current $800 per slip plus $348 escrow fee (Total $1,148), to a total of $2,500 for 26' slips and $2,700 for 30' slips. The $348 will continue to be contributed to the escrow accounts as well as a portion to pay for the LMCD fee, insurance and water /electric provided to the slips. We approximate $75,000 will be available after these expenses to be used to partially fund the interfund loan to pay debt service. We feel this is an appropriate source of funds as these docks would not exist but for the funding of the dredge and dump site clean-up. We believe these rates are still competitive with comparable slips in the area and anticipate all docks will be rented, although perhaps some going to non -Mound residents. The 2013 budget for docks reflects a break -even budget and a copy is attached for the DCC's review. We request the DCC recommend the City Council implement the interfund loan using excess Villa Dock revenue to help fund the debt service on the 2009D bonds. • -2009- • Tax Increment Financing, or TIF, is a public financing method that is used for subsidizing redevelopment, infrastructure, and other community- improvement projects. TIF is a method to use future gains in taxes to subsidize current improvements, which are projected to create the conditions for said gains. The completion of a public project often results in an increase in the value of surrounding real estate, which generates additional tax revenue. Sales -tax revenue may also increase, and jobs may be added, although these factors and their multipliers usually do not influence the structure of TIF. When an increase in site value and private investment generates an increase in tax revenues, it is the "tax increment." Tax Increment Financing dedicates tax increments within a certain defined district to finance the debt that is issued to pay for the project. TIF is often designed to channel funding toward improvements in distressed, underdeveloped, or underutilized parts of a jurisdiction where development might otherwise not occur. TIF creates funding for public or private projects by borrowing against the future increase in these property -tax revenues The Mound Harbor Renaissance TIF District was created in 2005 and encompasses the Lost Lake District (Phase I), the Auditor's Road District (Phase II) and the Langdon District (Phase III). The tax capacity at the time was $65,205, which becomes the frozen base. Anything over that for the life of the district is distributed to the City. The county, school district and special • taxing districts forgo their share in exchange for higher tax values when the district expires. The district "expires" or decertifies in 2031. Any tax increment that is received between now and 2031 can be used to pay -off the bonds and payback the interfund loans. It is anticipated that the Dock Fund may not be paid back until the end of the TIF district, if at all. If redevelopment continues to lag, we may lose out on potential tax increment. Improvements need to occur within the first 10 years of the district to be eligible tax increment.

The Lake Minnetonka Communications Commission has asked the City of Mound to become a full member of their commission as is the case with the other cities serviced by the LMCC. The LMCC holds the cable franchise agreements with Mediacom for all of the other cities, whereas Mound holds their own, collects the fees and pays a portion to the LMCC. The LMCC provides all of the services a member city would receive to Mound, including television production resources, taping /televising/streaming of city council meetings, and programming that promotes Mound and the entire area. • As a compromise in light of the economic challenges Mound is facing, the LMCC has requested that in addition to a 5% increase over the amount budgeted for cable TV services in 2012, they • would like us to increase the Public, Education and Government (PEG) access fee from the current $.84 per month to $1.21 per month and pass on the entire amount to the LMCC.

Mound, MN 55364 INDEPENDENCE Hear Mayor Hanus and Mound Council, LONG LAKE LMCC Chair, Doug Franchot, recently spoke with Catherine Pausche concerning the Mound usage agreement for the community television- studio with the LMCC. LORETTO The Local Programming Facilities Agreement was entered into in April of 2000. MAPLE PLAIN Since that time a number of things have changed. The LMCC raised its PEG fee from • $.50 cents to $.85 cents some years ago and did not request a similar increase from MEDINA Mound. According to the agreement a per subscriber formula was agreed to so that Mound was contributing all of their PEG fee and a portion of their franchise fee due to MINNETONKA the fact that Mound's PEG fee was $.84 cents at that time. Also, since then we have BEACH added streaming and agenda parsing, services which were not available in 2000. This was a considerable expenditure. The LMCC, at the Full Commission Meeting of MINNETRISTA August 21 voted to increase the LMCC PEG fee to $1.20. ORONO Chair Franchot had discussed with Catherine Pausche the consideration by Mound to raise the Mound PEG fee from $.84 cents to $1.21 to bring Mounds contribution more ST. BONIFACIUS into parity with the contributions by LMCC subscribers. This could be accomplished as an amendment to the 2000 agreement. Ms. Pausche informed us that this request would SHOREWOOD be included on Mound's 8/28/2012 agenda. A representative of the LMCC will be present at that meeting. SPRING PARK The LMCC would be interested at some future date in reviewing the Local Programming Facilities Agreement with our respective attorneys to determine what may need to be TONKA BAY updated. VICTORIA S' erely, WOODLAND ally enecke LMCC Executive Director -2016- Date: August 23, 2012 MEMORANDUM To: City Mayor and City Council From: Kandis Hanson, City Manager Catherine Pausche, Finance Director/Treasurer Subject: 2013 Preliminary Budget Assumptions Staff will present a recommended preliminary budget and levy for 2013 on September 11, 2012. The following facts will necessitate an increase to the General Fund Levy in 2013: • The 2011 and 2012 budgets did not factor in a general wage increase, and with the recent arbitration decision to grant 1% as of 7/1/11 and 1% as of 1/1/12, wages and corresponding benefits will rise. • The City budgeted a use of reserves in 2012 of $149K and needs to return to break even budgeting as the fund balance approaches the 20% unassigned target set by the Council. • • Assumptions were made for the 2012 budget in order to mitigate the effects of the new Market Value Homestead Exclusion program that resulted in an increase in taxes for a • portion of the tax base. We increased our tax capture assumption from 82% to 87% and do not anticipate being favorable in tax receipts as has occurred in the past. Staff is recommending a 3% increase to the General Fund levy for 2013. Even with the increase, the need to find additional savings will be necessary. In order to present a balanced preliminary budget, Staff would like the Council to approve of the following budget assumptions: • $50,000 in revenue will be budgeted for the transfer of liquor store profits to the General Fund to defray general property tax increases • Only the transfer for the Mound portion of the Area Fire Services fund will be budgeted in expenses. The Seal Coat program will only be funded with the $60K of MSA funding for 2013. • The remaining amount needed in order to produce a break -even budget will be budgeted in Revenue as equipment certificates for an amount not to exceed the amount of vehicles and equipment budgeted. It is Staff's intention that we will continue to find savings in order to reduce reliance on equipment certificates and allow for surplus funds to increase funding for the seal coat program. Staff requests the Council provide feedback on these initial budget assumptions. • -2017- • MEMORANDUM Date: August 23, 2012 To: City Mayor and City Council From: Kandis Hanson, City Manager Catherine Pausche, Finance Director/Treasurer Subject: RFP for Prosecution Services The Staff would like to do a targeted Request for Proposal for prosecution services for firms that currently serve Hennepin County cities.

Woodbury -2032- *=Affiliated Member Updated: 3115112 Approved Minutes CITY OF MINNETONKA BEACH • Dakota Trail Town Hall Meeting Minutes Monday June 11, 2012 Mayor Anderson called the Town Hall Meeting to order at 6:07 p.m. Present: Mayor Anderson, Council Members; Bartel, Kroll, Ferguson, and Treasurer Skalla. Absent: Council Member Mike Taylor Staff Present: City Administrator Griffin, Public Works Director Young, and City Clerk Tiegs- Roussell Guests: Three Rivers Park District Representatives Boe Carlson and Hugo McPhee. City of Orono Police Chief Cory Farniok. Residents: Jodi Schwendimann, Patty Rezabek, Serene Warren, Betsy Taylor, Amy Melin, Tom Schriefer, Joe Pagano, Nick Pagano, Mary McCarten, Jaci Lindstrom. Mayor Anderson began the meeting with introductions of Three Rivers Park District (TRPD) Representative Boe Carlson and TRPD Director of Public Safety Hugo McPhee along with Orono Police Chief Cory Farniok. Mayor Anderson addressed residents stating the trail has been in use for the past three years. She invited them to share their thoughts and concerns regarding their experiences with the Dakota Trail. TRPD Representative Carlson addressed Minnetonka Beach Residents by stating the importance of the trail and that it has become very popular. The trail usage continues to increase from the projected 70,000 • visits to the current 400,000 visits annually. As the trail continues to be developed further west it will come closer to the McLeod County border when two 6 -mile segments are completed over the next couple of years. Parking continues to be a challenge and TRPD is making an effort to add parking spaces for trail users. A cost share project is in the works between the City of Mound, TRPD, and Hennepin County addressing a crossing issue on County Road 15 to realign and make changes for safety improvements at the crossing. Vegetation control, pet issues, refuse, and policing continue to be part of the trail management. Public Safety Director McPhee of TRPD told residents that currently 8 -10 hours of patrol time is scheduled for the Dakota Trail daily during the summer months. On the problem crossings i.e. Shoreline Drive, County Road 19, and Orchard Road a squad watches the area. In 2008, 14 park contacts; 2009, 26 park contacts; 2010, 44 contacts and; 2011, 38 contacts with trail users. These contacts were to warn and educate trail users and currently for 2012 there have been 4 contacts. Stop signs on the trail are not obeyed and citations are issued for reckless riding. The stop signs are not enforceable so more time is spent at County Road intersections to issue warnings and citations. Orono Police Chief Farniok stated they concentrate on the crossings due to difficulty enforcing the driveway stop signs due to difficulty in following bicyclists on the trail. The Tour de Cure Race held the first weekend in June was poorly organized. Minnetonka Beach did not approve the permit for use of the trail but riders still used the trail due to poor communication from the organizer to participants stating the expectations. There is conflict at times among the multi -users which include the cyclists, walkers, and runners. Resident Patty Rezabek: • Dakota Trail Town Hall Meeting Minutes Jun(-2033-.2 Approved Minutes • • Is disappointed because there are safety incidents that are not documented, so there is not a true picture of what is actually happening on the trail. • Have limited trail usage because of exchanges with the fast bicyclists. They have an attitude of entitlement and are not respectful to the walking users. • There have been injuries and due to that, does not use the trail as much. • The buckthorn removal efforts late winter and early spring were good; however, there are concerns along the Arcola Lane area before the bridge. The removal has opened steep embankments and sharp tree trunks from the buckthorn removal and possible erosion along that embankment. The area is not safe. Mayor Anderson relayed Resident Pam Schultz: • There is an urgent need to slow down the bikers. She would rather her children play on the street because it is safer than riding on the trail due to the high speed of the bikers. Resident Jodi Schwendimann: • Resident Schwendimann would like consideration given to an actual stoplight that pedestrians activate to safely cross County Road 15 at Lafayette Road. She would like to have something put in the City Capital Improvement Program. • Mayor Anderson responded that the Civic Committee has put a stoplight in their CIP. Mayor referenced the young girl that was killed walking her bicycle on Hwy 101 this past month and feels it relates to the situation here in Minnetonka Beach. This incident illustrates the dangers of crossing County Road 15 and the need for something to be done for the safety of our residents. • TRPD Representative Carlson stated the bridge did not materialize, the tunnel was given some support by TRPD, but Hennepin County needs to participate in the discussion and there must be qualifying criteria to warrant a stoplight. Minnetonka Beach needs to initiate by sending a letter of request to Hennepin County. Orono Chief of Police Farniok stated that due to the curving of the road in that location there is not a long enough site line. This is an issue for the County to agree with the installation of a stoplight. Resident Mike Bloom • Has a love /hate relationship with the trail and at the same time it is a wonderful amenity that he uses daily. • The noise from living next to the trail is irritating, each morning he wakes up to the pound of running feet, talking, etc. which is very disappointing when a resident cannot open windows or keep drapes open. The trail has impacted resident lives negatively and he would rather have a railroad track. • In the past three years there has been little progress towards the big issues. • There is the same number of police but the trail user numbers are five times the expectations and the resources committed made to the City of Minnetonka Beach have not been supported appropriately. • The TRPD Police Officers on the trail have not been good stewards or lead by example. Mr. Bloom routinely observes the TRPD Officers blow through drive -way stop signs. The TRPD employees on the trail do not move over for people nor do they pick up obvious debris. • Employees could be helping clean the trail and be more involved. He has never heard the statement that the stop signs are largely unenforceable. • Administrative tickets can be issued but when challenged they are difficult to prosecute in court. • There is not enough enforcement and education must be done. • Mr. Bloom stated that the signage on the trail just on Northview Road alone has 20 signs and • further on there are another 15 signs which is overload. Dakota Trail Town Hall Meeting Minutes Jun - 2034 -12 Approved Minutes • TRPD removed trees but some trees removed were healthy and should be replaced. Also there • are trees that were planted by TRPD that are dead and need to be replaced as well. Resident Mary McCarten • TRPD Representative Carlson has met with Resident McCarten many times and the last correspondence was the end of September 2011 and there is still no resolution to the issues. • Resident John Breon has written a letter with concerns to TRPD as well. • The complaint and concerns are that the trail is evolving not as the TRPD presented to the residents in the beginning as a great way to meet neighbors and socialize. • Resident McCarten' cleaning lady's vehicle was hit by bicyclist who did not want to go to the hospital so she gave him a ride home. • Tickets should be issued even if they are not enforceable to give trail users a reason to pause and consider their actions. • Rumble strips are an option to slow down the bicyclists. • Try something instead of nothing to make the trail more livable and user friendly for the residents. • Resident McCarten wants more analysis of the issues then implement solutions. TRPD Representative Carlson spoke about rumble strips and stated they are not effective because over time trail users become accustomed to them and ride around them. Areas where there are many driveway stop signs, some bicyclist move to the roadway to avoid them. TRPD Representative Carlson attended a conference and there are some best practices discussed but did not address the driveway issues. Mayor Anderson stated that talking and reiterating issues to Three Rivers Park District Staff has brought no resolution to any of the trail complaints. TRPD Representative Carlson responded that more • information on the trail system is being distributed. Mayor inquired as to where the policing is during the heavy traffic times, because there is no sense in patrolling if not during heavy traffic times on the trail to see what is happening. Three Rivers Park Representative Carlson suggested a meeting with Zoning Administrator Krier, City Administrator Griffin, other experts from Hennepin County and Three Rivers Park District to collaborate on the trail and crossing issues. Council Member Kroll had requested a patrol officer schedule some time ago and has not received it. She would like the schedule, to determine time of day, minutes per day and week the TRPD Patrol is on the trail. TRPD Police Officer Hugo stated that the trail is patrolled in rotating shifts so an exact schedule is difficult to provide. Council Member Kroll wants the situation to be bettered monitored and asked if other cities are crying out for more patrol as much as Minnetonka Beach residents. TRPD Representative Carlson stated that reporting to Council during the summer months is more than TRPD does for other communities. Council Member Ferguson suggests aggressive speed tables which causes bicyclists to slow down. The City of Naples uses them successfully. TRPD Representative Carlson stated speed tables cannot be used by driveways. Council Member Ferguson stated a solution must be found. Resident Joe Pagano • Resident Pagano stated that the pedestrians and family bicyclist get along well but its "Tour de France" bicyclists that zip through at high speeds causing pause for trail enforcement. • What can we do to slow the high speed bicyclists down because they are not showing courtesy to the other users. • Has consideration been given to limiting the access of the high speed bicyclist to certain times of the day? • Consider speed limits and enforce them. • Dakota Trail Town Hall Meeting Minutes Jun_203532 Approved Minutes • TRPD Representative Carlson has posted on bike sites discouraging bikers from using the Dakota Trail but it does not work. Another suggestion was to put a bike trail marker on County Road 51 to route around Minnetonka Beach. Orono Police Chief Farniok stated that County Road 51 is not a good alternative due to the narrow shoulder width. Mr. Bloom stated mass bikers can stay off the trail. Currently the communities on the trail are working together to create a uniform event permit application for trail use. Cities need to join together and deny usage when appropriate then forward those applications on to the Three Rivers Park District. The bicyclists search websites for 100 mile rides and the Dakota Trail provides a portion of that trail. Mayor Anderson would like enforceable speed limits. Resident Tom Schreifer: • Likes the trail and thinks it is a good thing. Mayor Anderson thanked all attendees for their input and the discussion. Mayor Anderson closed the Town Hall Meeting saying that most residents love the trail but there are some serious concerns regarding the driveway crossing, speed, and safety issues. All attendees of tonight's meeting will receive a copy of the minutes. Mayor Anderson requested that the TRPD Patrol schedule be sent to Council for review. A meeting will be scheduled between Council and Three Rivers Park District to hear their solutions to the trail issues and what will be implemented.

Your contribution is greatly appreciated. The Lake Minnetonka Association, representing the collective voices of lakeshore owners and businesses, helps to keep Lake Minnetonka clean and safe. Unless we advocate for our collective interests, Lake Minnetonka will soon be overrun with Asian carp, hydrilla, spiny waterflea - and many more obnoxious and damaging exotic species. It is too late for zebra mussel! We may also claim successes. The milfoil control demonstration project, now in its fifth year, has successfully controlled Eurasian watermilfoil throughout the treated bays while also protecting native plants and water quality. We now must now advocate to make this program available throughout the lake and with more government funding. We have focused our efforts on new laws, funding and policies to keep other invasive plants, animals and viruses out of our lake. We have worked with Minnesota Waters and other partners and have seen improved laws and increased funding. We have much more work to do as wie remain too exposed. The Lake Minnetonka Association is recognized as a credible information resource and an advocate. We have regular Guest Columns in the Lakeshore Weekly News and 'Lake Minnetonka Association Presents' program on the local access channel. As a result of our standing, we are often consulted for information and advice. Please help us spread the word and broaden our support. Many Lakeshore owners are not yet members - ask your neighbors to join and support our worthy cause. Please visit our web site (www.LMAssociation.org) to keep informed about the Lake Minnetonka Association. Please call Dick Osgood at 952 - 470 -4449 if you have any questions or concerns. Thank you.

STANEK HENNEPIN COUNTY SHERIFF August 21, 2012 Mayor Mark Hanus 5341 Maywood Road Mound, MN 55364 City Administrator Kandis Hanson 5341 Maywood Road Mound, MN 55364 Dear Mayor Hanus & City Administrator Hanson: As one of thirty -six Hennepin County cities that receive dispatch service from the Sheriff's Office, I am writing to update you on developments of the county board led Regional Emergency Communications Integration Study Workgroup. On Wednesday, August 8, Hennepin County administrator Richard Johnson convened the • second meeting of this workgroup, which consists of the independent PSAPs (public safety answering points) in our county. (I sent you a letter in January of this year summarizing the first meeting.) The agenda for this meeting was to review a consultant study on consolidation and/or integration and discuss next steps. The consensus of the workgroup was that there was very little interest in consolidation of facilities, but there is interest in ensuring technology integration. The Sheriff's Office supports integration of technology across PSAPs as it allows for greater information sharing and ability to assist as needed. It also standardizes and puts into practice common protocols and policies. At the meeting, there was also discussion about the current payment structure that does not recognize the difference between dependent and independent agencies. In response, the county commissioners that serve on this workgroup (Commissioner Peter McLaughlin and Commissioner Jeff Johnson) reported that the policy discussion of whether to review and reevaluate the current funding structure will begin at a board briefing tentatively scheduled for September 13, 9:30 a.m. in the county board room. As an agency that currently receives dispatch service from the county at no charge, I thought you might be interested in attending this meeting. I outlined the below in my January letter to you, but I believe it warrants repeating. As . you may know, the decision whether or not to charge a fee to cities for dispatch service is -2041- a policy decision to be made by the county board, with advice from the Sheriff, as • outlined in MN Statute 383B.255, which I have included for your reference below: MN Statute 38313.255 Subd. 2. Policy and operations. The public safety communications system shall be under the direction of the sheriff. Public safety communications policies may be established by the board of county commissioners. Subd. 3. Extension of services; charges. Public safety communications services may be extended to any statutory or home rule charter city within the county, and to any adjoining county or statutory or home rule charter city in an adjoining county, upon the written request of its governing body to the Hennepin County board. All the communications equipment used in connection with the extended service shall, unless otherwise provided by the Hennepin County board, be owned, maintained, and serviced by Hennepin County. The board with the advice of the sheriff may establish a charge for extended public safety communications services pursuant to section 383B.118. In discussions with the county board, I have made it clear that I do not support a fee for dispatch service; however, the decision on whether to charge cities for dispatch service moving forward will be made by the county board. I encourage your attendance at this September 13 board briefing. If you have any questions about the above information or would like to confirm the meeting time on September 13, please feel free to contact Sandra Westerman on my staff, • Director of Intergovernmental Relations, at 612.543.0694, or call me directly anytime.
