I wish to again assure you that, as City Manager, I am committed to responsible and ethical budgeting and spending. Because it is my responsibility to stay abreast of the short-term and long-term needs of the City, my recommendations represent a very hands-on level of awareness. You may also be assured that I try hard to be sensitive to your priorities and to the politics. At the August 30, 2005 budget meeting, it is Staff's goal to lead you through some generalized discussion that will allow us to agree on a preliminary budget and proposed levy for 2006, which requires approval at the Sept 13, 2005 City Council meeting. The preliminary proposed levy may then be reduced, but not increased, before finalization. The final budget and levy will be approved at the December 13, 2005 meeting, with budget workshops scheduled in between, as needed. Enclosed are the materials for discussion for the workshop. Also enclosed is an agenda that will be the basis for moving quickly and systematically through the material. Please note that the meeting must end by 9:00 p.m., at the direction of Mayor Meisel. So that quick progress is made at the meeting, you are invited to email, or otherwise direct, your specific questions to me in advance. By doing so, Department Heads may gather the data in time for the meeting, enabling us to better answer your questions and satisfy your concerns. Please try to do so by 10:00 a.m., Wednesday, August 24. Thanks! EXPENDITURES Operations Budget. Please note that the lines in the operating budget are either flat or contain minor upward adjustments. The exception to that are the lines that represent personnel costs, which will be discussed in detail later in this letter and which are viewed by Management as being essential to carrying out the demands placed upon departments resulting from development. It is important the lines representing operations not be reduced by any great measure, since they represent the minimum cost of operating that department in a growing environment. printed on recycled paper Capital Purchases. This year's capital needs have been prioritized by the Supervisors and those that remain are listed among the 2005 Proposed Capital Outlay. The proposed capital budget represents equipment purchases that will enable the development of the departments' fleet management plans, plus other needs. Large equipment in the Public Works divisions and a police car would be funded by lease equipment certificates, which are paid back over five years. Programming. Our charge as City officials is to provide for the health, safety and welfare of the citizens. That generally means provide for the basic needs. Other services beyond that scope can be thought of as enhancements to quality of life and can oftentimes be reduced or eliminated. With that in mind, Council Members are asked to think in terms of "programs" when you think of reducing the budget. You may ask yourself: What programs can be curtailed or eliminated with the least amount of impact? You could consider the following programs for cutback: --designate several parks as natural, eliminating their mowing --review status of green spaces, to determine other possible uses, including sale to the public --increase the time between grass and weed trimming citywide --beach maintenance --beach and park weed spraying --port-a-potties in parks --lifeguards --kid recreation programs --Mound City Days contribution --Music in the Park contribution --contribution in money and in-kind to the Gillespie Center --skate park contribution --garbage pickup downtown --CBD parking program, and the corresponding services --phase out City involvement in redevelopment --weed spraying on sidewalks and roadsides --street sweeping one time per year --striping of crosswalks and parking lots --sidewalk repair --pothole repair --seal coating --snowplowing on weekends (overtime) --snow removal from sidewalks --snowplowing only after 4" accumulation --signage repair, replacement and additions --tree trimming in the ROW --Operation Clean Sweep --Recycling Program --crime prevention activities --SARA incentive projects (Police Dpt) --National Night Out --PD response to car lockouts --PD response to property damage accidents --police programs, such as Triad or others (eliminating an officer) --close City Hall one day per week (10 hour days), reducing utilities --close the cemetery --close the Depot --newsletter --Homestead processing at City Hall --annual employee picnic --memberships, dues and subscriptions Human Resources. Personnel costs will always be the largest expenditure of local government, since we are a service agency and it takes people to provide the services. People needs are on the increase at the City of Mound as the redevelopment unfolds. For many of our residents, the bar has now been raised and along with that, so have their expectation for service levels. See the enclosed 2001 Customer Surveys for their preferences at that time. Salaries & Wages - Salaries and wages in all departments reflect step increases for employees with less than six years' tenure, as required under the City of Mound pay Equity Policy, with any pay equity adjustments. Personnel-related expenses (FICA, PERA, hospital/dental insurance, life/disability insurance, post retirement health care contribution, worker's comp insurance) have been adjusted proportionately. Policy provides that non-union employees, made up of supervisors and administrative staff, receive the largest increase agreed upon by any of the bargaining units. Health Insurance - Health insurance benefits are reflected at an expected 12% increase. Labor Unions - There have been no negotiations with any of the labor unions as of yet for contracts that will be effective 2006 - 2007. The 2006 budget contains an allowance for up to a 3% cost of living increase, as recommended by the Council Personnel Committee. Human Resources Needed -Wages and salaries are also increased by the following, seen as the personnel additions needed to carry out the day-to-day tasks: Accountant (June start) IA Parks Maintenance (April start) Police Department Public Works: Water Division (April start) $39,300 9,675 60,960 38,700 Accountant - The main staffing priority is the trained accountant for the Finance Department. This is a new position and not a replacement for the Finance Director. This person will be charged with carrying out the higher-level accounting functions and will ensure a seamless transition at the retirement of the Finance Director. See memo from Finance Director Gino Businaro. Parks/Docks Maintenance - The second priority is filling out our seasonal position which is currently nine months, to a year-round position. This addition has a minor impact on the 2006 Budget but has a major impact on our ability to stay ahead of the demands in the parks and dock divisions. See memo from Parks Supt Jim Fackler. Police Officer - The third priority is the addition of a police officer. This can be achieved through some creative means and will provide a dual benefit to the community. The need for a Rental Ordinance was one of five top priorities for the City Council. See the memo on City Goals. Collections from property owners could finance the officer that would implement the program and, at the same time, respond to crimes committed in rental housing units. See memo from Police Chief Jim Kurtz. water Division - The final priority is the addition of a full-time employee to the water division. This position would be funded by collections from the water fund and does not affect the General Fund Budget. See memo from Public Works Supt Greg Skinner. FUNDS Council. Salaries - Since January 2, 1995, the salary for the Mayor and each Council Member has been $375 and $250 per month. The rates of pay for mayor and council may only be addressed in an election year. You are invited to take a look at the intern's study on council pay, and that for special meetings, in other cities. Codification of the Code - Codification of the City Code was among the top five priorities of the City CounCil at the recent goal setting. Its cost is anticipated to be spread over the 2006 and 2007 Budgets. See the memo on Reaching City of Mound Goals. Promotions. Gillespie Center. The Gillespie Center has requested an appropriation again this year. The cooperative agreement is in effect and seems to be a workable arrangement for the present. Festival. With the restoration of the festival, Management recommends a small annual appropriation. This year we paid for the rental of two tents and provided for the garbage costs. Elections. Recent legislation mandated the upgrade of voting equipment so that it is operable by hearing and visually impaired. HAVA, as it is referred to, will be funded, in part, by the State in the amount of $35,000. Cities are advised to budget for the repair and maintenance of the new systems. That adds $6,000 to our elections budget. Computer. The City's growth includes growing technical assistance needs. For about three years, Geoff Michael has provided IT support on a volunteer basis. If finances allow, we compensate him nominally at the end of the year. With the growing expectations for his services, it would be considerate of him if the City were to budget a stipend for his work, so that he is guaranteed compensation. Management is suggesting $6,000 for 2006. Assessing. The Assessment Agreement with Hennepin County expired on July 31, 2005, at which time the City Council approved an extension for a term of four years. We have evaluated our options for assessing services in the past and Staff is of the opinion that the cost of the services received from the County are reasonable and that the City would incur higher costs if assessments was done in house. The cost for assessing services over the last three years was as follows: Year Cost 2002 78,037 2003 83,269 2004 79,300 2005 83,300 Police Department. The Police Department's capital plan is centered on the scheduled replacement of major equipment. An examination of maintenance expenses over the past three years shows that the older the patrol fleet gets, the more is spent on long-term maintenance, such as transmissions, suspensions and engine overhauls. The goal of the fleet management plan is to retire patrol squads at or near 75,000 miles. To meet this goal, the City must purchase one patrol car a year, with a second squad car being added into the rotation every fourth year. Police Cars - There were two new police vehicles recommended for the Police Department to stay with the fleet replacement plan. Management has cut that back to one in this budget proposal. The purchase of accessories for the new car has been delayed until a future budget. Old equipment will be utilized in the meantime. It is important that this car stays in the budget to prevent a glut of need in upcoming years. This car is proposed to be financed with five-year equipment certificates, along with Public Works and Parks capital purchases. The purchase of' two cars would put the City on track with its fleet rotation plan, Over-Time- See enclosed memo on PD over-time. Fire Department. The foremost concern of the Fire Department is to maintain our current customer base. The three-year agreements with our members will end soon. Significant staff time has been devoted to the creation of a long-term agreement (5-20 years), intended to replace the short-term agreement. The long-term agreement will ensure the stability of the Fire Department Fund. Included in the long-range plan is a plan for trucks and track maintenance that will reduce the cost for all the participating cities over the length of the contract. The smaller member cities that are concerned today about their increasing fire-related costs have been assured that the growing tax in Mound, Minnetrista and Spring Park and our long-range planning efforts will reduce their costs in the long run. Pension - The annual pension contribution has been increased by 3% to help offset the shortfall of funds and 'the unfunded liability caused by floundering investments during recent years. Planning and Inspections. Increased spending in the Inspections Division is due, in part, to the cost of building inspections being performed by Waldron's and Associates. We have learned from experience that the building activity at Mound cannot be managed by one building inspector for two reasons: the volume of activity and the fact that one person cannot bring the multiple disciplines required for comprehensive residential and commercial inspection. We are advised that it would take 2 ½ inspectors to cover the amount of activity taking place in Mound at this time. The $140,000 is much less than the City would expend on salaries and benefits for 2-3 inspectors. City Goals - The other significant costs are among those recently approved City of Mound top five goals. See enclosed memo on Reaching City of Mound Goals. Next-Up Redevelopment and Comprehensive Plan Update are budgeted over the next two years, with the Met Council mandate being to complete the Comp Plan update by 2008. Public Works (Streets~ Parks & Docks). Streets. The most grave needs continue to lie in the Public Works Divisions. While the needs for most other departments are mostly met, PW continues to fall short in its equipment. PW Divisions often fall behind in their capital replacement plans because of the sizable cost of the equipment. Equipment is large and unique and, therefore, costly, making it easy for it to be pushed to the back of the priority list. Sidewalk Snow Blowers - With the new brick sidewalks, the number of new street lights and the maneuvering that staff will encounter, the small track sidewalk snow blowers will make cleaning the walks more efficient. Sanders & Boxes for Plow Trucks - The new plow truck equipment will allow staff to use less sand and salt, use it more effectively and efficiently and add to the longevity of the truck. The cost of one new truck is $130,000 compared to retrofitting the four existing trucks at $130,000. Staff recommends the retrofitting option as the most cost effective at this time. This item was cut in half; there remains a need for twice the equipment. Annual Street Replacement Program - 2003 was the first year of the new Street and Utilities Replacement Program. Under the program, street reconstruction will be completed every 10 years. The support shown by the benefiting property owners (exhibited by lack of resistance) is a good indicator of residents' desire for upgrading the city's streets and utilities. The enclosed 2001 Citizen Surveys also reflect the support for an ongoing pavement maintenance program. The Annual Street and Utilities Replacement Programs are financed through bonded debt, 2/3 of which is assessed to the benefiting property owners. That portion for which the City is responsible is captured through tax levy. Parks. In regard to parks, with local governments in financial distress, it is more apparent now than ever that the upgrading of our 30+ parks is going to depend upon creative financing measures. As in the past, I encourage these and other creative ways of fund raising, which can be dedicated to benefiting our park system. Some of these include: --passing an ordinance requiring charitable gambling organizations to dedicate the 10% of contributions to parks. Current donations fall well below the statutory requirement for giving. --soliciting large contributions from Kevin Sorbo for the maintenance and development of his name sake--Sorbo Park --reviewing all of the green spaces to determine their potential for alternative uses --inventorying the tax forfeited parcels and marketing them, with proceeds dedicated to parks --soliciting grants from large corporations, foundations and agencies 'that fund special projects (McKnight, Disney, Target, General Mills, DNR) --engaging the community in parks fund raising, such as in March for Parks --more fully engaging the community in parks maintenance, such as Adopt a Park and spring cleanup programming It should be noted, however, that grant dollars currently not locked in should not be a considered in any budget. Three-Deck Mower -With the additional areas the Parks Department is responsible for maimaining, the 3 deck mower will double the mowing efficiency in areas it will be used. It will also free up a track and trailer for other mowers and people. Pickup - The Parks Division pickup reqUested in this budget has been supplied through the Police Department seizure. A green truck with high miles, but in good shape otherwise, it will serve the purpose for now. POSAC Requests - One means of financing that is available and is proposed in this budget is the expenditure of park dedication funds. The current balance is $104,000, with $38,000 to be expended for this years' play structure. $81,000 is expected to be captured through anticipated development projects in 2005 and 2006, leaving a balance of about $147,000. Regarding the POSAC capital request, Staff recommends the use of Park Dedication Funds to fund park planning and has included the dollars for skate park improvements for consideration in the Recreation Budget. Council members may wish to fund additional items through this means, as requested by POSAC. --3 play structures --20 picnic tables --park plan --park signage --dog bag dispensers --skate park improvement $141,000 $ 10,000 $ 30,000* $ 46,000 $ 2,100 $ 10,000' $239,000 Docks. A special meeting is scheduled that is dedicated to the discussion of the Dock Program. Dock Fund balances just a few years ago were in the range of $250,000. However, projections currently indicate total depletion of the fund in a few years without significant fee adjustments. The ongoing maintenance of Dock Program infrastructure (shorelines and rip rap, stairs, new and replacement multiple slip systems, etc) is essential to the professional operations of this Program. It is Staff's professional recommendation that a review of dock fees and policies is warranted and that dock fees be increased for 2006. Discussion will include the addition of a third fee tier for the multiple dock system being added to Lost Lake. Boat, Motor & Trailer - The Parks department needs a boat to place and maintain swim buoys at beaches, do maintenance on the Lost Lake Channel and transient dock areas by removing debris and floating bogs. They would also use the boat to do inspection of the docks and boats in the City's docks program. We are now inspecting four times per year, as originally intended. It is estimated that inspection efficiency could double with the use of a boat which would free up the inspector for other duties. Recreation & Community Services. Skate Park. The $10,000 proposed will not fully complete the skate park but will help to finish the flooring in the shelter, finish the blacktop areas, finish the half-pipe, and place benches. With the high level of usage, it is staff's opinion the project needs to be completed and the anticipated donations are not sufficient at this time. City Hall Buildings & Services There are two outstanding projects to complete the updating of City Hall. Council Chambers and Conference Room - Replace customer chairs in both rooms to match new d6cor. They are also very heavy for female workers to move/rearrange. Continue to utilize current Council/staff chairs. Replace conference tables in Council Chambers. Again, the weight is too much for female handlers. Newly designed conference tables are on wheels. Planning/Inspections & Public Works/Engineering - Four modular work cubes, which includes rearranging the space for better work efficiencies and facilitate the functions of those who work there. This is especially important with the addition of the Planning/Engineering Tech, who needs more room and flat work space for working on plans. Existing filing cabinets would continue to be utilized. Community Identification Signs - Included in the line item for Professional Services is the cost of design services for community identification signs. Management is suggesting that the design and planning for signs are done in 2006 and the placement of signs take place in 2007. See enclosed quote for services for Community Sign Design. Future budgets need to include seed funds that will build for the long-term care and maintenance of all the buildings for such things as carpeting, paint, repair work, etc., making those projects more financially manageable when they are needed. The Fire Department has been our best example of pm-planning of that type, as is the case with their Truck Replacement Plan. Recvclinff. The Recycling fund'balance has declined considerably over the last few years, after maintaining nice balances.during earlier years. It is proposed to increase the Household Charge by 10%, taking the rate from $2.40/month to $2.75/month. This will help to restore the fund balance to a reasonable level so we are not forced to reduce the services available to Mound's residents. Staff suggests maintaining a $20,000 fund balance, MISCELLANEOUS Conferences and Travd. My practice is as follows: Department Heads may utilize airlines as a means of travel once per year. The exceptions to that are the Fire Department and the Police Department which, due the size of the staff and the training demands, are allowed more flights, on a case by case basis. There may not be international travel unless the cost is offset by some means so that it is equal to that of domestic travel, which is also addressed on a per case basis. REVENUES Levy Limits. The 2005 Legislature did not impose' levy limits for 2006. State Aid. HACA and LGA have both been eliminated for Mound. This change has had a major impact on the City's budget process over the past few years. Creative financing measures have enabled the City of Mound to escape the impacts suffered by many cities. By looking at the alternatives, we have saved jobs and maintained service levels, along with proceeding with the projects that are putting Mound back on the map. That ability of Staff and Council to be willing to think out of the box has enabled the City of Mound to continue those endeavors. Land Use & Building Permits/Applications. Permit revenue did not meet what was expected, so more conservative projections have been made for 2006, based on the anticipated redevelopment construction and general construction trends. Many costs are being recovered through user fees and pass-throughs to our customers utilizing the Building, Planning and Community Development Divisions. Transfers from the Liquor Store Fund. Based on our analysis of expenses and cash flow needs for the new Liquor Store, it is not possible to transfer dollars from the Liquor Store fund for any purpose during 2006. Our recent extensive capital investment requires that our increasing cash flow stay with the Fund until it exceeds our need for debt payments. This continues to be a setback for the General Fund but will pay off in the future when proceeds are, once again, used to offset taxes. Enterprise Funds (Water, Sewer, & Storm Water). Water Fund. The water enterprise fund is in the most critical condition of the enterprise funds. To recap, Well #6 was removed for the construction of the Public Safety Facility. Well #1, located in Auditor's Road, will be removed in 2006, due to redevelopment. Well #7 needs to be rebuilt in 2006, and threatens to go down before that time. These conditions make availability of adequate volumes of water at risk. This, in turn, puts our ISO rating (fire insurance rating) at risk. A new pump house is currently underway and new Well #8 will be on line in 2005. A new tower will be built and Well #3 reconstructed in 2005-2006. To compound the needs, arsenic levels in Well #7 continue to teeter around the level that may require water treatment. Water division projects have resulted in bonded debt and interest that require a recommended 10% increase in water fees. One-Ton Truck w/Plow and Utility Box -This request for a truck was deleted due to other pressing needs in the division. Its purchase would maintain the division's fleet rotation plan. Sewer Fund. Lift Station Upgrades - The Public Works Department is proposing sanitary sewer lift station upgrades, which also incorporate SCADA, as part of the 2006 Budget. The City has 30 well-aged lift stations. This is the first project of what may become a multi-year program which will include lift station upgrades along with pipe lining to eliminate inflow and infiltration. Mandates from the Metropolitan CoUncil will affect the City in a few years and this budget item and future programs are designed to begin addressing those mandates. Generators - The two generators will provide standby electrical service for the sanitary sewer lift stations. It costs the City $7,500 to have the lift stations pumped following an average storm. The pump companies have been quicker to respond than the time it takes us to find or rent a generator. After two storm events one generator would be paid for and both after four storms. Storm Sewer Fund. There are no projects or other expenditures anticipated, eliminating the need to increase the storm water rates during the coming year. WRAP-UP HRA Levy,. The HRA Levy is shown on a page titled Tax Levy Recap. It shows the progressiOn of the levy over recent years and currently has a balance of about $400,000. These funds, being under the authority of the HRA, are intended for community development purposes, generally speaking. Past HRAs intended it to be used for the construction of municipal parking, when needed. To date, generous grants have been made to the City for the parking deck slated for the Transit District (formerly referred to as the True Value District). However, their use does not allow for the soft costs associated with a capital project. It is recommended that the HRA approve the expenditure of HRA Levy Funds for the soft costs associated with the construction of the parking deck, estimated to amount to $250,000. 'To meet the terms of our agreement with Met Council, we must be under contract for the construction near the first of the year. With that in mind, design must start as soon as possible. It is also Staff's recommendation that the levy for 2006 go to the maximum amount allowable under Statute, or $153,720, to replenish the fund for future community development projects. Cash Balances. Even if the total cash pool appears to be very healthy, Members are reminded that most of the cash has been made available from bond proceeds and its use has been pre-approved and is reserved for various specific projects. Tax Levy, Recap. The 2006 Budget impacts, as proposed, are best depicted on the page titled Tax Levy Recap. The tax levy increase over last years' levy is 25%. When all other forms of revenue are combined with the tax levy, it equates to a 20.85% increase. With credits applied, there is a net levy increase of 22.35%. However, the number on which to focus is the City Property Tax Rate. When factoring in Mound's growing tax base, the actual tax impact felt by property owners is only 5.32%. To apply that percentage increase in a practical manner, see the various property values of homes listed at the bottom of the page, an example being the $200,000 home, which will experience a $40.00 increase in City taxes. I would like to offer one tip as you enter into discussions on this budget. Lines for operations are very in line with what we know to be the actual cost to provide the basic services. To reduce the lines of the operating budget involves the prospect of eliminating or reducing service levels through programs, as was discussed early in this letter. However, the up or down of capital equipment purchases in the public works divisions or for police cars does not significantly change this budget, in that there are revenues from equipment certificates that will correspondingly increase or decrease total revenues. In other words, if you add a police car, revenues will go up because of the expected revenue from the loan we will attain. So, those capital changes in the budget will have little net impact. Summarv of Revenues and Expenditures. The final and most important consideration of the 2006 Budget is reflected on the page titled Summary of Revenues and Expenditures. The last number on that page is the Fund Balance as a Percentage of Expenditures. We have had higher fund balances in the past and, in recent years, expended our fund balance as we leveraged the City back into a healthy physical condition. The goal, as prescribed by the City Auditor, is to restore that fund balance to earlier highs. This budget as proposed represents a 23.50% fund balance and would be considered a healthy amount, trending to even higher balances in the future. CLOSING In closing, these are the Management recommendations for a preliminary budget. However, I recognize that the budget is the prerogative of the City Council. Your candid discussion of the proposed budget is welcome, with the final decisions for funding being yours. Thank you for your kind consideration.

Internal accounting controls require a high level of supervision, and reasonable separation of duties. In addition, orderly continuation of the financial function is vital to the operation of the City. Employees, customers, vendors, and residents depend heavily upon the Finance Department for their financial dealings with the City of Mound, be it payment for services provided to the City or by the City. For the last ten to fifteen years, we have operated with one person for each function. Currently no members of the staff, with the exception of the Finance Director, are college trained in accounting. At the same time, not only the work load, but also complexities to that work load, has increased by leaps and bounds. We need to make sure that the transition from now to the near future retirement of the Finance Director does not cause a disruption of city operations with costly consequences. I am recommending that the City hire a trained Accountant to learn all the technical aspects of the present Finance Director's duties and be made responsible for the day to day activity. When the Finance Director retires, we will then be in a position to replace him without any major departmental disruption, and we will be able to allot the months of time necessary to find the right person to provide the financial leadership required by the City. printed on recycled paper CITY OF MOUND DATE: TO: FROM: SUB J: MEMORANDUM August 15, 2005 r/~ Kandis Hanson, City Manage Jim Fackler, Park Superintend~ [3 Full-time Maintenance Position In the 2006 Parks Budget I have requested that the current nine-month seasonal maintenance position be increased to a regular full-time position, based on the need for additional man-hours. 5341 MAYWOOD ROAD MOUND, MN 55364-1687 PH: (952)'472-0600 FAX: (952) 472.--0620 WEEI: www. cityofnhOUnd:com The changes that are taking place in the new downtown, combined with the growing park system, have brought about additional responsibilities. The Parks Division has the addition of the Skate Park, Public Safety Facility grounds and the Lost Lake Greenway, with parks now exceeding 30 in total. Parks staff is now required to have the ability to take on new tasks like irrigation systems and dock and trail upkeep. There also has been renewed interest in City Festivals and other special events. These all place the burden of making sure that the cities facilities surrounding the event are in a best possible maintained condition, prior, during and after the event. The growth in grounds maintenance brings on the need for equipment such as trucks, tractors, mowers and related tools, which also need to be maintained. In an attempt to stay even with daily needed maintenance, the Parks Division needs this additional assistance. Thank you for your consideration. [pfintedonrecy~edpaper 9 MEMORANDUM To: City Manager Kandis Hanson From: Police Chief Jim Kurtz Date: August 4, 2005 ,S.u,b..j .ec.t~ 2006 staffing request I am requesting consideration for the funding of an additional patrol officer in 2006. The Mound Police Department has become the busiest police agency in the Lake Area and as a result I believe our current staffing is compromising service and officer safety. I have attached Lake Area Police Agency comparison reports on staffing, Part I Crimes, and crime rates. It should be noted that the comparisons reports are based on 2003 statistics because the state has not published 2004 statistics. I have also attached our 2004 Year-End statistics and our 2000-2004. Annual Initial Report Comparison. A crime rate is determined by calculating the number of crimes (Part I & Part II) per .year per thousand people in a population.

At a goal setting retreat this summer, this became the third priority for Council and 8taft. A licensing and inspection program would: · increase city property values · increase rental demand · decrease general calls for police service at rental property · improve the quality of life in neighborhoods that have rental property · reduce criminal activity in rental property I would like to propose that the Mound Police Department take responsibility for the inspection and licensing of rental property through a Crime Free and Rental Housing Inspection Program. The program would be based on a proactive enforcement model evolving around: Crime Prevention - Safety / Health Code inspections - Licensing. The purpose of the program is to hold landlords and tenants responsible for maintaining housing and behavior standards. The Mound Police Department has an officer trained as a Crime-Free Multi-Housing officer and Crime Prevention Specialist. His skills coupled with training in building and fire code enforcement would be a great asset to the department in handling and investigating rental properties with habitual problems and the program would be almost entirely 'paid for by licensing fees. A licensed police officer conducting code enforcement is a progressive approach to rental housing control that has many residual benefits to the city and the police department. I would like to formally present these benefits to you in a presentation for your consideration. Fees collected from land owners would finance the rental program. Those dollars become the revenue that makes possible the hiring of an additional officer for the Police Department. printed on recycled paper 19 MEMO DATE: TO: FROM: RE: August 11, 2005 Kandis Hanson, City Manager Greg Skinner, Public Works Supt Short staffing in water department As you know, we have only two water department employees. The new positions would help with time off and sick time situations. As it is now I have to pull from the sewer or street departments to cover for this. Location of utilities takes up great amount of our time from April- mid-November. We average 58 locates per week. That's 11.6 per day. These take anywhere from 10 minutes to 30 minutes each. Meter reading takes us 6 days to complete. We are installing the MXU Radio equipment now and when we complete this it will reduce the amount of time needed to read meters but this will take some time to complete. Our underground utility (standpipe and gate valve) repair work has suffered. We need to get started with our gate valve exercising program stated. With only two employees this cannot be started. We flush fire hydrants twice a year. Maintenance is as-needed now. We need to have flow data for every hydrant and color coded for fire department. This new position would also give help with snow removal. This just a brief outline and will discuss in greater detail, if needed.

Although the federal minimum wage for most employees remains $5.15 per hour, an employer is generally required to follow the law that is of greatest benefit to the employee. 9. Pipeline safety All cities with water and sewer facilities are directly affected by new pipeline safety rules that went into effect June 13, 2005. The rules promulgated by the Minnesota Office of Pipeline Safety impose a significant new duty on cities to provide information about the location of private water and sewer laterals located within public rights-of-way. Cities should consider associated costs when budgeting for 2006.

City' of Mound Goals at the City of Mound were. established, As indicated in the 2005 Strategic Planning Keport by Ekters and Associates, the next step is allotting the resources to carry out the goal. s. It is Management's recormuendation that the top five goals become the focus over the next 1-2 years, and that the resources of time, money and information be dedicated to them. Staff is recommending Council Member approval to move forward with the assessment stage of these first five priorities. 1. City Code, At flue Goal Setting Retreat, re-cOdification of the City Code was deemed the top priority'. CodificationWould include reorganization and update of the existing C~ty Code m~d would most likely be undertaken by a consultant retained by the City who specializes in this type of work. Typically the process can take up to and may exceed a year, depending on. the status of the existing ordinances. Preliminary estimates for the project i's $8,000 to $12,000 and could possibly be budgeted over a 2-year period. Public Works and Parks Building At the Goal Setting Retreat the Public WOrks.& Parks building was ranked as the #2 priority. The existing buildings do not provide for adequate storage, repair facilities, salt storage and 'personnel needs for the 'City. The buildings do not meet the OSHA standards or building codes. The Public Works building was last updated in 1988 and parts of the building are 50 and 60 years 01d. The Park building on the Island is 68 years old. t 25 The first phase of the process is to update.~e Needs Assessment Study. The City would select an architect with a background.in Parks & Public Work facilities who would then study the City's needs and report on what improvements and construction is recommended to meet. Cu~r~nt and futm'e' needs. It is anticipated the study would be completed in 4-6 months. After the needs study is completed the' City Council would review the assessment and determine if tiiey Wish to proceed with a public process with the focus being on public acceptance of a new building and its location. The public process could take 6 months depending on the reSPonse of the public and the complexity of the project. Should the project receive a favorable response' from the'public, a project. could be bid for construction to begin in 2007. 3. Rental Property Code The addition of a Rental Property Code was the third priOrity at the Goal Setting Retreat. Due to increase demand for inspections by Police, Fire and Building inspections associated with rental.units from 'tenants and/or landlords, the need for costs currently incurred by the C~ty. These Costs are not being recouped for complaint related and public safety issues. AdditionallY, ,it is important.'to note . that the City has a significant amount of rental housing stock some of Wkich is not being maintained and we are seeing more units being converted to "rental" for' inves~nent purposes. City of Mound building officials, Waldron and Associates, is welt-experienced in tt:ds type of code enforcement and is meeting with staff On July 22 to discuss their proposal for a policy. Council members will consider the policy at an upcoming meeting.. NeXt-Up Redevelopment The pla~u~hg and implementation stages of the MOund Harbor Renaissance Redevelopment are virtually behind staff, The next step is plan~iug for the next redevelopment locations, which was' the fourth priority at the Goal Setting~tg,~ Retreat. /- The preparation of a master plan in cooperation with Westonka School's for the Shirley Hills and Grandview Middle School sites may be needed in light cfa possible referendum to undertake a "new" campus style plan'at the school site which would turn these.two parcels 'into possible r~development sites. Preliminm3z estimate for the project is $15,000 for the master plan and $30,000 to $40,000 if a public process is included in the process. 2 2008 'Comprehensive Plan Update update, pursuant to state statute, the City will need to update comp plan by 2008. The last update Of the plan was in 1999-2000. It' is esfima'~ed Ghat the project Will take 6-12 months and will cost approximately.S35,000 if done by a consultant but less if specific parts are prepared by Staff. If furore possible redevelopment sites (i.e., Balboa and/or Shorelh~e Plaza site) are h~cluded in the 2008 update, an additional $20,000 would be needed. The comprehensive plan could be budgeted over a 2-year period. 27 CODE lOl 121 131 134 135 151 2oo 2o2 21o 212 218 30o 3o5 321 322 331 361 4o0 404 43o 431 433 434 435 438 5oo CITY MANAGER/CITY CLERK SALARIES, REG.

Last year the Center served 2,270 local area seniors offering a wide variety of programs assisting residents of your community to remain as independent and active as possible. Most Center participants are over 75. For many the Center serves as the principal point of access to needed services and information. Activities ;include health screenings, physical exercise classes, counseling groups, daily noon meals and meals-on-wheels, tax and energy assistance, recreational groups, a wide range of cultural and educational activities and transportation. The transportation service allows those people who no longer drive to continue to grocery shop on their own and to do personal errands without having to depend on others. We are requesting $6,000 for staffing and program costs (in addition to any funds provided directly to the Gillespie Center used for operation of the facility) from the City of Mound for budget year 2006. The City will agree the Center Program is a valuable asset to the citizens of our community and deserving of your continued support.

Box 378 Winona, Minnesota 55987-0378 Dear Mayor Miller: Thank you for the assistance of your staff in providing your City's audit and other requested information to this office. We have completed our review of your City's 2003 audit and related documents. We understand that your City is issuing administrative penalties for traffic offenses. Following an,yopinion from the Minnesota Attorney General's Office, we believe that local administrative traffic tickets are not in compliance with Minnesota law. I am providing you with my office's statement of position on that issue. Unless there is a change in the law, we see this as a legal compliance issue. Please tell us when you have come into compliance with the law, and what amount your City owes to the State for the fines you have collected under yoUr administrative penalty program. We look forward to reviewing your 2004 audit, next year. please contact my office. Patricia Anderson State Auditor Cc~ Ms. Mary Burrichter, Finance Director · 'Deloitte & Touche, Minneapolis, City Auditor If you have any questions, ~X2/x Recycled paper with a minimum of 46 15% post,Consumer waste An Equal Opportunity Employer MEMORANDUM ro~ Kandis Hanson, City Manager From: Jim Kurtz, Police Chief Date: August 24, 2005 .S,u.bie. c.t~ 2006 budget- overtime request I have requested $52,000 in overtime for the Police Department's 2006 Operating Budget. While this represents a 7.22% increase from our 2005 "requested" budget, it is less than 1% increase from our "actual" 2005 Operating Budget. There are several very compelling reasons for me to make this request to the City Council. The first and most important reason is that the Mound Police Department has become the busiest police department in the lake area and the department that handles the most serious incidents. As one lake area officer put it, "we know we can always count on Mound for hot calls". Part I crimes are the most serious crimes and almost always occur on the weekends and almost always require officers to stay late, come in early, call-out investigators, and attend court. In 2005, we had the Stein burglary incident, Delmore homicide, and the Island shooting, all of which resulted in large overtime expenses. The good news is we made immediate arrests on all of those incidents, keeping overtime to a minimum. If we hadn't made immediate arrests our overtime expenses could have doubled or tn'~led. The second compelling reason for the increase in overtime is the size of our department gives us little flexibility to cover patrol shifts when there are injuries, illnesses, vacations, and training. In past two years, we have had five and four officers out respectfully for extended periods of time due to injuries, maternity/paternity, and administrative leave. In 2006, it is very likely that we could have three officers out on maternity and paternity leave. Lastly, staffing plays a significant role in quality of service and officer safety. I no longer allow one officer to cover an entire middle or dog shift alone. We are simply too busy and we are dealing with too many people who are violent and/or abusing alcohol and drugs. I would like the Council to know I am very conscious of overtime and pay close attention to its use. I recognize we have difficult budget times and that all of us have to be watchful of expenses.

HANSON, CITY MANAGF~~/<~' SUBJECT: 2006 FIRE CONTRACT BUDGET PROPOSAL Enclosed is the 2006 Fire Contract Budget Proposal. It follows the same format and approach as used since 1982, with the exception that we are now using market value instead of assessed value. Capital outlay for 2006 consists of a two MSA self contained breathing units with masks, an extraction blower fan - gasoline powered, and a lap top computer for the first response vehicle. Although we are not proposing the purchase of a r~ew vehicle in 2006, we are continuing to set aside monies ($42,000), in the Fire Truck Repair Account as we have since 1991. Keeping this mount in the budget will assist in plmming for future purchases of major firefighting equipment. As in past years, we have reviewed the mmual increase for the Fire Relief Association. As you may recall, from 1982 until 1992, we have been collecting a 10% annual increase for this purpose. In the 1991 budget, we reduced the annual increase to 4%. In the 1992 budget, we again included a 4% increase. For 1993, a 7% increase for the fire pensmn contribution was approved. For 1994, a 4% increase in the contribution was approved. For 1995, we had a 4% increase in the contribution and an additional 2% in the contribution to address the unfunded liability issue that had been discussed within the actuarial report that the Fire Department had prepared as of 12/31/94. The Department requested a pension benefit increase in 1995 but we asked for an actuarial as of 12/31/95. That was completed in the spring of 1996 which indicated that an increase of $35 or a monthly benefit of $460 would be affordable without may increases in contributions from the cities in the fire district. The Department's request was approved by the Mound City Council effective July 1, 1996. Additional actuarial were performed as of 12/31/97 and as of 12/31/99 which indicate that current investments are' doing very well and that the unfunded liability issue is still a concern as we look at printed on recycled paper 49 the future of the fund and that based upon those actuarial, the unfunded liability amount should be "zeroed out" by December 31, 2009. On August 25, 1998 the Mound City Council passed a resolution approving an increase in monthly pension benefit for the.Fire Relief Association to $510 effective September 1, 1998. For 2001, the contribution from the cities towards the Fire Relief Association was set at a 4% increase over the 2000 contribution. Firefighter's hourly wages, which are paid on call, have been disbursed at $7.00 per hour for 2001, an increase of 50 cents from prior years. Effective January 1, 2001, the Mound City Council approved the Fire Department Relief Association's request to an increase in pension benefits to $585.00 per month. For 2002, 2003, and 2004 the contributions from the cities towards the Fire Relief Association was set at a 3 % increase over the 2001,2002, and 2003 contributions. FOr the year 2005 an additional 2.5% increase in pension contribution was approved. After receiving recommendations from the MFD Fire Commission on July 20, 2005, we feel that an additional 3.0% increase in pension contribution for the year 2006 is a justifiable validation of the skills which these volunteers bring to the service of the Fire Department. The extended leadership of a fire chief and the fire inspection needs are being addressed through a full time fire chief position and a full time secretary. We have budgeted $107,220 for these positions in 2006. The Fire Department Volunteers are very proud of their equipment and of the service which they provide. The Cities of Mound, Minnetrista, Spring Park, Minnetonka Beach, and Shorewood are proud of having such a dedicated group of individuals who volunteer their time for the safety of all the citizens in the fire service area. Firefighting continues to be complicated and more sophisticated in many respects. More and more time is required of firefighters now than ever before. Being able to provide excellent equipment, training opportunities and financial incentives to attract and keep ftrefighters around for 20+ years is critically important to the future of the Mound Fire Department. The Department is at a full complement of 40 firefighters who take their firefighting job very seriously. They do receive the full support of the entire fire district and we are very proud of what they do to protect the residents from fn'e and other safety related hazards. Please review this information and the proposed budget and contact Greg Pederson, Fire Chief, at 952-472-5533 or myself at 952-472-0609, if you have any questions.

I contacted the public works superintendent for the city and he indicated they would require us to purchase a computer dispensing system to accurately control and allocate costs for the fuels to each city. This system would cost $12, 000 to 15,000 ........................... to__purchase and install. This cost alone would make a 'oj~_n_t O_lD__e__~r. aji_o_n~0re costl_y. In__a_ddj'd_9_~ .................. the cost of driving a large truck or piece of equipment to Minnetrista to fill would also lose money in additional time and buming of fuel. I also investigated the option of portable fueling stations which can be leased from local fuel distributing companies such as Mayer Distributing who happens to service Minnetrista. Mr. Mayer indicated that bulk purchasing cannot be used as a justification for cost savings. He felt very strongly that only personnel time, driving distance and emergency fuel access could be used to support the use of their services. Cleady the convenient location of SA is an important factor as it is within two blocks of PW and Public Safety buildings. On the day I discussed this option with him their bulk rate for us would have been $2.29.9 per gallon when the same day SA was at $2.34.9. The City saves $.03 per gallon through our super saver program with SA so the actual difference was only $.02 per gallon. If the distributor were to happen to deliver your fuel on a day pdces were higher, you pay whatever the price is and it is not negotiable. I also discussed these alternative with other City PVV and Maintenance personnel and they indicated that for a smaller city such as Mound we are better served with the existing program. If we were a large community then bulk purchasing and tank ownership could be justified. Recommendation Based on my research, I recommend that the City continue with its current program with SA and continue to monitor cost saving programs that might be offered. 63 CODE 101 102 103 121 131 134 135 140 151 2OO 202 _ 208 210 212 218 220 221 223 232 300 3O5 321 322 328 351 361 381 PARKS 101-45200 2003 2004 2005 2006 ACTUAL ACTUAL APPROVED REQUESTED SALARIES, REG. 97,451 125,735 145,320 195~ 480 OVERTIME, REG. 175 632 10,000 10,000 SALARIES, TEMP. 25,650 19,189 26.070 31,990 FICA/PERA 17,794 20,084 25,430 33,580 HOSP./DENTAL 11,385 17,444 23,180 32.290 LIFE IN S./DISABILITY 532 714 760 1,010 POST RETIREMENT 635 1,159 5,790 7,810 UNEMPLOYMENT 820 0 1,000 3,500 WORKER'S COMP.

July15,2005 Mr. Carlton Moore Public Works Director City of Mound 5341 Maywood Road Mound, MN 55364-1627 RE: Design Services for Community Identification Signs Dear Carlton: HKGi is pleased to submit the following proposal to. assist the City of Mound in .the development of design ideas for signage related to the entries to the City. Our objective is to develop a range of unique ideas that build upon the inherent qualities of Mound and relate strongly to the materials palette currently being implemented at the CSAH 15 streetscape and the Greenway. This letter contains a preliminary scope of work and budget for our services. This approach can be modified at your request to better meet your objectives. Work Scope Based on our current understanding of your needs, HKGi proposes to undertake the following tasks: 1. Visit the three likely sign sites to better understand the conditions present that may impact the scale and design of the future signs. Site photos will be developed to summarize the existing site conditions, including particular attention to significant site features and peripheral 'land uses adjacent to the subject parcels. 2. Develop a series of design ideas in elevation and sketch form for preliminary review with City staff. 3. Review the initial design drawings and revise/refine as needed based on staff input. 4. Develop a preliminary cost estimate for up to 3 chosen alternatives to better aid the City in budgeting decisions. 5. Meet again with staff to review the revised/refined designs and related cost estimates. 6. Develop a summary document including color graphics and related costs for distribution to City staff. 8ntr. y S~n Study ~t~ 2 Estimated Costs The estimated cost of services for tl~s project is approximately $2,500 to $3,500, depending on the number of alternative design options that are determined by staff to be carried forward to estimating of costs. To better convey our relevant design experience, we have also attached a variety of other community identification related design projects completed by HKGi. We look forward to our continuing role in the evolution of Mound and appreciate this opportunity to present this proposal for our services for this important community project. Feel free to contact me with any additional questions or suggestions related to our process. Sincerely, Hoisington Koegler Group Inc.

As local policy- , Water · Sewer The Enterprise Fund approach is expaning, "no new tax" pledges, the ability to maintain certain service levels requires exploring both · traditional and new user fees, where service benefits go to specific ~arties. While this route has attracted media attention, user fees are appropriate if properly cost and benefit justified. One area that can be traditional and yet creative, is the revenue generating ability .of municipal enterprise funds. As new budget cycles approach, it may be time to review the historical activity in your enterprise funds, as well as consider any new service areas you may wish to explore. Our Management Consulting Service (MCS) team works with clients in cost recovery rate and fee setting for existing enterprise funds, as well as financial feasibility analyses for proposed enterprise funds. · Recreation: Golf Courses; Communit~ Centers; Ice Arenas To newer activities in: · Storm Water · Street lighting · Right-of-Way Management Some questions to consider when reviewing existing Enterprise Fu~ds include: · Are rates and charges'set at a level that will fund future operations, anticipated capital expenditures, provide for cash flow requirements and fund any reserve requirements? · Do the rates and charges equitably distribute the costs of providing the services among the various classes of customers? · What major capital items will be necessary in the near future for which we should be preparing? , Are our enterprise funds reimbursing the general fund for the services provided to them by general fund departments? of local residents. For example, the cities of Chaska and Moorhead, Minnesota, through their Public Utilities, are taking ".Smart Communities'" one step further by forming Internet Service Provider Utilities.

TWangy-four City of Mound Executive Summary January, 2002 percent pointed to "The Laker" newspaper. Seven percent each wanted to use the "grapevine" or the "Internet." Smaller numbers mentioned cable television and meetings or personal involvement in city activities. A solid eighty-four percent regularly received and read "The City Contact" newsletter. In fact, a very strong eighty-two percent of the residents receiving and reading the newsletter read either "all of it" or "most of it.' And, seventy-eight percent rated the format of the newsletter as either "excellent" or "good." In examining electronic media, sixty-nine percent of the households in the sample subscribed to cable television. Conclusions: At this time, there was an unusually large amount of dissatisfacti_on~nd unrest with_the state of affairs in the City of Mound. Criticism of the quality of life was~_~usually high, i~n addition to concerns about the direction of the communiw. Redevelopment of the Downtown Area, with an emphasis on the attraction of more businesses and retail ormormnities~ was a concern for a majority of residents: Perceptions of the Mayor and City Council polarized the population, with almost as many respondents rating them positively as negatively. And, in spite of generally solid city service ratings and a limited amount of hostility about tax levels, a large portion of the population was opposed to property tax increases for any purpose. As discussions begin about the need to reconfigure City Hall, the vast majority of residents gave the current facility high marks. The only aspect of the facility which evidenced even a moderate amount of criticism was the amount of privacy to discuss problems or issues with City personnel; even on this aspect, though, less than one-in-five were critical, and almost seventy percent expressed satisfaction. Residents, at this time, were just not well informed about the need for any changes. o Only one referendum proposal was supported by a majority of residents: a replacement . Fire Department facility to house fire suppression equipment, hazardous material disposal equipment, training facilities, and office space for all services and personnel. Even so, a large thirty-three percent expressed opposition, just under the level which precludes a potentially successful voting effort. Every other proposal tested did not have the support of a majority of residents and, in fact, accrued at least forty percent opposition. In any case, regardless of the proposal placed before the electorate, a tax increase on the median valued residence in the city must not exceed $35.60; and should be somewhat under that amount, if at all possible.

MN 55364-1687 PH: (952) 472-0600 FAX: (952) 472-0620 WEB: www.cityofmound.com MEMO DATE: TO: FROM: RE: August 23, 2005 Mayor and Council Kandis Hanson, City Manager Gino Businaro, Finance Director/Treasurer Interest Rate on Special Assessments We need your guidance on the interest rate that the City of Mound should charge for the Special Assessments that will be certified to Hennepin County in November of this year for 2006. Until November 2001 the rate that the City used has been 8.00%. It has been the standard rate for many years. In November of 2002 we started using the rate of 6.00%, given the exceptional Iow prime rate set by the Federal Reserve Bank. In late 2004 and in 2005 the prime rate has been changed numerous times. The present prime rate is 6.50% and economists forecast that the prime rate will be 7.50% in early 2006. Given that the lending rate is 2 to 4 percent higher'than the prime rate and given the increasing trend in the market, administration recommends that the interest rate on Special Assessments be set back to the traditional level of 8.00%. City residents who are assessed will always have the option of prepaying their assessments if they consider the interest rate being too high. Your guidance at this time will facilitate the process of implementing the statutory requirements which we must follow as we are preparing for the 2006 sPecial assessments that will be certified to the county in NOvember of this year. printed on recycled paper 113
