Attached is a copy of a signed paper received from the property owner of Lot 6, Block 38, Wychwood.

Jan.27,1978 TO: The City Council of Mound, Mn. and any other appropriate authority, or concerned parties herein. On Jan. 20, 1978 I met with Mr. Robert J Carlson, my neighbor regarding a petition he has filed with the City of Mound petitioning the Council to vacate that portion of the service road between our properties which is presently closed by barricade. This street or alley is known as Cambridge Lane. This street separates Lot 6, Block 38, Wychwood belonging to the undersigned, and Lot 7 and Lot 8 owned and occupied by Mr. Carlson and his wife Genevieve. It is my understanding that the Mound City Council is willing to vacate that portion of the service road involved if my wife and I do not have any objections. That portion of the service road is not needed for access to our property, and we have no objections of any nature to the street being vacated forthwith, if deemed appropriate by the City Council of Mound.

ORDINANCE AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 22.37 OF THE CITY CODE, ESTABLISHING DESIGN STANDARDS AND REQUIREMENTS RELATING TO PUBLIC SITES, OPEN SPACE AND PARK LAND DEDICATION IN THE SUBDI- VISION OF LAND The City of Mound does ordain: follows: Section 22.37 of the City Code is amended to read as Section 22.37. Design Standards, Fublic Sites and Open Space and Park Land Dedication. Subd. 1. Public Sites and Open Spaces. Where a proposed park, play~round, or other p~lic site shown on an adopted Comprehensive Plan or official map is embraced in 'part or in who~e, by a boundary of a proposed subdivision, and such public sites are not dedicated to the City, such ~ublic ground shall be shown as reserved land on the pre- liminary plat to allow the City the opportunity to consider and take action toward acquisition of such ~ublic grounq or park by purchase or other means prior to approval of the final plat. Subd. 2. Park Land Dedication. In every plat, replat, or subdivision of land allowinq development for residential, commercial, industrial or other uses or combination thereof, or in a Planned Development Area, or where a waiver is granted, a reasonable portion of such land, but not less than 10% if the propert~ is to be used for residential, multiple family residential, commercial business or industrial purposes, shall be set aside add dedicated by the tract owner or owners to the general public as open space for park playground purposes, public open space, or storm water holding areas or ponds. Said land shall be ~itable--f~r aforedescribed purposes and the City shall not be recuired to accept land which will not be usable for parks and playgrounds or which would require extensive expenditures on the part of the public to make them usable. The City shall have the option to require cash cohtribution in lieu of setting aside of dedicated land or in requiring a part of the land and the balance of the land value in cash. ~ is hereby determined that where a cash contribution is ~l~lue s~] he $]O,nn0 pcr acre. Any mo~ey so paid. to the City shall be placed in a special fund and used only for-- %he acquisition of land for parks and playgrounds, public open space and storm water holding areas or ponds, or the development of existing park and playground sites or debt retirement in connection with land previously acauired fox parks and playgrounds. Any lands which obtain a waiver of the subdivision reauire- ments, shall be subject to these regulations. Any cash contribution in lieu of land shall be based on 10% for resi- dential, multiple family residential, commercial or industrial uses of the total fair market value of the ]_and being s,ubdi- Vided. J~D_-~ul~ting th~ f~iz m~rket value, d~ed that Said value shall no[ ~xc~d $~0, For purposes of this ordinance, "fair market land value" is defined as the market value of the land within such plat, replat, or subdivision as of the date the plat, replat, or subdivision is presented to th__e City council for preliminary approval, or if no preliminary approval be given or required as of the date so presented for final approval as determined ~y the City.Assessor in the same manner as he determines the market value of land for tax purposes, excluding, in deter_____mi.n.in_g_ such value, all value added to such land by improvements other than utilities, streets, and other public i. mprovements serving such land., but including in such deter- mination the highest and best use to which the land can be put under the zoning districts then e'stablish-ed Or.proposed. This provision shall not apply to the division of platted lots which are being combined with other existing lots to increase lot sizes to conform to the larger sized lots required by the Zoning OrdinaDce. This exception is in ~ecggnition of 'the need to put undersized lots tocether to bring them into conformance with zoning requirements adopted after the original subdivision of properties, many of which predate aq~ zoning ~e_gulations of this City.-- Attest: Mayor City Clerk CITY OF MOUND Mound, Minnesota February 8, 1978 COUNCIL MEMORANDUM NO. 78-45 TO: FROM: SUBJECT: The Honorable Mayor and City Council The City Manager Public Hearing - PDA Ordinance At the Public Hearing for the proposed PDA Ordinance, the discussion was tabled until an ordinance change could be provided for changing the Subdivision Ordinance.

MINNESOTA 5540~ February 3, 1978 TELEPHONE (61;~) 333-054.3 Mr. Len Kopp, City Manager City of Mound 5341 Maywood Road Mound, Minnesota 55364 Re: Amendment of Subdivision Ordinance Dear Len: At the council meeting on January 31, 1978, the Council considered the proposed PDA ordinance. One of the questions which came up related to park dedication of open space. I indicated to the Council that our existing subdivision ordinance did not have a park dedication provision other than 22.37 which is not all that specific. The Council determined that they wanted to adopt a park land ordinance first and then in adopting a PDA ordinance, they would make reference to the subdivision ordinance requiring park dedication. I am enclosing herewith a proposed amendment to Sec. 22.37 which I believe accomplishes the purposes as requested by the Council. I think that upon adoption of this ordinance, the Council can then move forward with the PDA ordinance. The sections of the PDA ordinance which should be amended based on the p%~lic hearing of January 31 are as follows: or". In paragraph 5, delete the words "the reouired lot area 2. Paragraph 7 should be revised to read as follows: "7. Open space and park land dedication or cash in lieu thereof pursuant to the requirements of Sec. 22.37 of the City Code shall be required. The land which is to be set aside as open space shall be clearly indicated on the plan. Provisions for recreational area and for continual maintenance of that area not dedicated and accepted by the City shall be required." LAW OFFICES LEFEVERE, LEFLER, PEARSON. O'BRIEN & DRAWZ Page 2 Mr. Len Kopp, City Manager February 3, 1978 3. Paragraph 10 should be changed in that the reference to Section 26 should be changed to Section 22 which is the subdivision code. I believe with these changes the Coundil may reconsider the ordinances, and if everything meets with their satisfaction, they can move ahead to adopt the two ordinances. A public hearing is not required to amend %he subdivision ordinance. Under Minnesota Statutes Sec. 462.358, subdivision regulations have to be adopted by ordinance and under Subd. 3 the law states, "After a municipality adopts subdivision regulations, copies of the regulations shall be filed with the County Recorder as provided in Sec. 465.321 to 465.324". It is therefore imperative that a copy of our subdivision regulations be recorded with the County Recorder to make them effective. CAP: lh Enclosure Ver{ truly yours, Curtis A.

Mayor Attest: City Clerk Approved by City Council Published in Official Newspaper CITY OF MOUND Mound, Minnesota February 10, 1978 COUNCIL MEMORANDUM NO. 78-49 TO: FROM: SUBJECT: The Honorable Mayor and City Council The City Manager Fees - Conditional Use Permits The Zoning Ordinance establishing Conditional Use Permits for Multiple Dwellings refers to a fee, but established no amount. Attached hereto are copies of surveys made on subdivision and other fees charged by neighboring communities. The Planning Commission has recommended fees for the following: Subdivisions: Minimum Charge $150.00 for each subdivision plus $5.00 for each parcel in the subdivision. Mound's present fee is $75.00 for each subdivision plus $5.00 for each parcel over 10 parcels. This would require an ordinance change in 22.40 Subdivision g. Conditional Use Permits - Multiple Dwellings The Planning Commission recommends a fee of $75.00 plus $5.00 per unit in the Multiple Dwelling Project. The Attorney will have to advise whether this should be an ordinance or resolution. Special Use Permits, PDA, Cluster Development Ordinance 334 in March 1975 changed Section 23.50 to charge $75.00 for Special Use Permits as then covered in the Zoning Ordinance. Since the Cluster Development Special Use Permit as covered in the P.D.A. Ordinance differs from the Special Use Permits formerly referred t~ the Planning Commission recom- mends a fee of $75.00 plus $5.00 for each unit in the Cluster Development. This is the same fee as that recommended for the Multiple Dwelling Conditional Use Permit. ...... I3~o~ard L.

Housing Review Guidelines of the Metropolitan Council' (Insert on Page 116, left-hand column, of the Housing Guide.) In reviewing a local plan, the Council will take into consideration the following factors: At least 60 percent of the subsidized housing included in the plan shall 5e for families, after the elderly proposal is included. o If the community has an adopted Housing Assistance Plan (HAP), the HAP goals for subsidized housing shall reflect the. goals included in the local plan. The local plan shall take into consideration the Allocation Plan numerical goal for the community and shall not, as a general guideline, exceed the numerical goal by more than 100 percent in the case of First and Second Priority and Freestanding Com- munities., nor by more than 50 percent for Third Priority Communities. In establishing the revised numerical goal, the plan shall take into account actual and anticipated subsidy resources available to the Area, and shall indicate the specific federal or state subsidy programs that will. be used to meet the goal for family units. The plan shall contain information regarding the availability of eithe~ (a) an adequate supply of land appropriately zoned for multi-family new construction, or (b) an adequate supply of rental units that qualify for rent assistance for families. The plan shall also include information regarding developer or public housing agency~interest in providing the needed family units. HOUSING 114 H/7/77 Projects within the Rural Service Area: 1. Does the project meet housing review criteria? If no, the project is in conflict. If yes,-the following should be considered. 2. is the proiect located within the Commercial Agriculture Regions? If yes, the project is in conflict. If no, the project lies within the General Rural Use Regions and the following should be considered. 3. Does the project when fut'ly developed, result in fewer than 40 housing units or platted lots within the section where located? if no, the project is in .conflict. If yes, the following should be considered. 4. Does the community have an adequate on- site disposal ordinance ~s defined by the Met. ropolitan Council? If no, the project, is in conflict. If yes, the following should be considered. 5. Does the community have an adopted plan, consistent with Development Framework and with previous Council review comments, which d~ignates the area where the proiect is proposed as a rural service area and is the project consistent with that plan? Does the community have zoning and subdivision ordinances and a capi~ai program for the pro- vision of services and is the project consistent with these? If yes, the project is not in conflict with Council plans and policy. if no, the following should be considered. 6. In the absence of an adopted comprehensive pian reviewed by the Council, can the project, clearly be considered orderly and appropriate development for the area? If no, the project is in conflict. If yes, the follawing should be considered. 7. Will all affected units of government including school boards, counties, and municipalities certify and document by official action that they will provide adequate services to the development, assume responsibility for any pollution problems or demands for additional servic_-s generated by the development, and certify that the area where the project is to be located will be designated for rural use? If no, the project is in conflict. if yes, the project is not in conflict with Council plans and policies. GUIDELINES FOR RANKING SUBSID/ZED HO USING PROPOSALS The Housing Guide contains a number of policies which relate to federally subsidized housing. Guide- lines are needed to clarify, the relative weight and rank of these policies in recommending subsidized projects for funding. Under federal and state regulation, the Council reviews only "New Con- struct[on" proposals and does not review Section 8 "Existing Housing" proposals; therefore, unless' there are changes in regulations, these guidelines will apply only to New Cons~ruction proposals. in the past in reviewing appliCants for federal and state funding, a large number of the developments were 'proposed on sit~ with generally high levels · of ser,zic~s. Therefore, a ranking syszem based on Council policies and plans was developed to pro- vide an orderly and fair means of m.~king recom- mendations for funding from among the well- serviced proposals. It should be emphasized that subsidized h~using developrnent~, like ether housing proposals, mu~ meet the review criteria detailed in the General Housing Review Guidelines ar~I the Guidelines for Accessibility of Services and Facilities. In addition to these standards, required of all housing developments, subsidized housing proposals must be consistent with the Council's Subsidized Housing Allocation Plan priorities and numerical goals. Subsidized housing proposals will also be carefully examined to determine whether they would result in a concentration of lower-income housing in a single area or neighborhood; further iconcentrations of lower-income housing as the result of subsidized new construction will not be acceptable. Factors in funding priority Assuming that the subsidized housing proposals satisfy these review ~andards, the acceptable pro- HOUSING 115 H/7/77 posals will be ranked and recommended for prior- ity in funding as follows; Developments with units containing three or more bedrooms. The Council will give immed!ate top priority to any housing development which is pro- posed to include at least 20 percent of its units as subsidized family units containing three or more bedrooms. For such projects, the Council will set aside its normal priority area classifications and numerical goals and recommend highest priorities, except in the case of Minneapolis and St. Paul, which mu~t accommodate all projects within their estab- · lished numerical allocation. The proj~-=,ct must, of course, meet normal review criteria, such as being adequately provided with necessary services, having no negative environmental impact, and not constituting an excessive concentration of Iow-income families. How- ever, providud Council review criteria are satisfied, housing developments which will include subsidized three-or-mor~bedroom units for families will receive the Council's top prioriW for funding. Priority area and numerical goals according to the Council's Subsidized Housing Allocation Plan. Proposals are ordered according to the prior- ity of'the community in which they are pro- posed. The Allocation Plan is the single most important guiding principle for Council decision-making on subsidized housing, with the exception noted above aimed at s~imu- lating constru~ion of housing for Iow-income families. Proposals within the MUSA will be ranked according to their priority designation. Pro-. posals within the Freestanding Growth Centers will be ranked according to the level of services within the Freestanding Growth Centers with competing proposals. The community numerical goals for each of the proposed project~ will also be examined to ensure that the proposals will not be incon- sistent with the Council Allocation Plan. The Allocation Plan established that numerfca{ goals are best viewed as minimums for first and second-priority suburban communities within the MUSA and as maximums for the center cities and Freestanding Growth Centers. Third-priority suburban communities will be encouraged not to exceed their designated Allocation Plan goals, although proposals above the goals would not be rejected only on that basis. A~er proposals are grouped by priority areas, the following criteria wilt be used to rank within priority areas. Family Housing. As previously noted, developments which will contain at least 20 percent of their units with three or more bedrooms will receive immedi- ate top priodty regardless of Allocation Plan priority area or numerical goals. Family housing which will serve smaller families or contain less than 20 percent larger units will receive priority within the normal constraint~ of the Allocation Plan. For example, among competing proposals withirr a given priority area, the developments proposed fbr family housing would take priority over those pro- posed for elderly. In reviewing competing family housing pro- posals, the Council will §ire highest priority to proposals which are ec. onomically int~- grated and which propose to subsidize no more than 20 percent of their family units. Family proposals containing more than 20 per~nt sub- sidized unir~ will be carefully examined to ensure that the project will not contribute to concentr~'th~g lower-income per~ons in a single area (~.',~ ;~eighborhood. Joint Fami{y/Elderly Proposals. Proposals which combine family and elderly units in the same development or building will be given priority over all elderly propo- sals. Such projects will be examined to ensure that the site and building designs are condu- cive to a good living environment for both th.~ family and elderly tenants. Elderly housing developments, which if ap~cved, vv~uld be located in communities with at le~; 60 percent existing or planned ~mily subsidi?:?d housing. Among elderly proposals, developments to approved must be located in communities HOUSING! 116 H/7/77 with at least 60 percent of their total sub- sidized housing existing or planned for families after the elderly proposal is included. Family subsidized units can include both hous- ing which the community already has as well as units which the community plans to pro- vide in the next three years. The plan for provision of units would have to be adopted by the Iocat city council. The following illustrates how this would work. If a devel- oper proposes a 40-unit elderly development, it can receive priority if the community has 60 family units, either existing or definitely planned. This priority is consistent witch the Councii's intent to encourage family housing by giving priority to an elderly project when a community has a clear intent to meet its family needs. The outline below illus~rat~ how this list of prior- ities would rank various project=. -This rankin~ system seems to work well and represent Council policies, with the excerption that in order to meet ~he 60 percent family goal the Council may need to give priority to ail-family proposals regardless of their Allocation Plan priority. If there were a large number of elderly proposals meeting the priority criteria in high-priority communities, it might be that there would be insufficient funding to fund family units in a third-priority community._ If this were the c~se in any funding cycle, the Council would set aside priority area criteria to m~t the 60 percent family goal. Order of funding priorities for subsidized housing Large Family Subsidized housing At least 20 percent of units having three or more bedrooms (highest priority). First-Priority Communities: 1. Family project 20 percent or less subsidized 2. Family project over 20 percent subsidized 3. Joint family/elderly proposal 4. Elderly project proposed in communities that have at least 60 percent existing or planned subsidiz~ family units Second-Priority Communities: 1. Family project 20 percent or less subsidized 2. Family project over 20 Percent subsidized 3. · Joint family/elderly proposal 4. Elderly project proposad in communities that have at least 60 percent existing or planned subsidized family units Third-Priority Communities: 1. Family project 20 percent or less subsidized 2. Family project over 20 percent subsidized 3. Joint family/elderly proposal 4. Elderly project proposed in communities that have at least 60 percent existing or planned subsidized family units . ln-conflic~ recommendations In addition to the guidelines for e~ablishing pri- ority, there are a number of Counci! policies which could resuJt in an "in-conflict" recommendation being §iron. The "inconflict" r~ommendation means essentially that the Council is recommend- lng against funding to the Department of Housing and Urban Development or the State Housing Financ~ Agency. This r~ommendation could be given for the following reasons: Inadequacies of the site or level of services, negative environmental impact, etc. These reasons are historically the major rea- son for A-95 in-conflict recommendations. More details on these criteria are found in the Housing Project Review Guidelines. Proposal exceeds the communi~ numerical goals of the Allocation Plan. This would occur when proposals are submit- ted which exceed the community's allocated number of units according to the Council's Allocation Plan. This would most likely be a problem with proposals in the center cities and third-priority communities, where the numerical goals are viewed as maximums. According to Council policy, first, and second- priority suburban communities may exceed HOUSING 117 H/7/77 the Allocation Plan's numerical goals. Cur- rent proposals would be added to other approved funding in the community, includ- ing Section 8 Existing Housing programs as well as New Construct/on programs, and any other federal or state subsidy programs to deter- mine the total number of subsidized units a community has received. Proposals would provide elderly subsidized housing in a community which has not provided or does not have plans for providing at least 60 percent family 'units. Council policy states that communities should provide subsidized family and elderly units. The Council has approved elderly projects in communities only with the provision that the community is providing or has definite plans to provide at least 60 percent family housing. The only exception to this would be if units were to be totally lost to the Area because no other recommended proiects could be found economically feasible to HUD or MHFA. Proposal is to be located in the Rural Service Area. Council policies designate that subsidized 'housing should be located either within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area or within the 14 Freestanding Growth Centers. Pro- posels located in other than these locations will be found in confti~.' Proposal would further the concentration of Iow-income persons. Proposals will not be approved if they would increase the concentration of lower-income persons in a single neighborhood or area. For example, completely subsidized family pro- jects in predominately lower-income center city neighborhoods are unlikely to be recom- mended for funding by the Council. On the other hand, a completely subsidized family development in a generally middle-income suburban community may not, in the Council's judgment, constitute a concentration of lower-income persons in an area or neighbor- hood. In summary, subsidiz~l housing pro- posals will be examined carefully to ensure that they will not unduly concentrate Iow- income persons either within the project, or within the area where they are to be located. Freestanding growth centers 'Freestanding Growth Centers are treated as a separate category. Fourteen percent of units will be available to these communities. The free- standing c. anters will compete again~ each other for the available funding rather than a§ainst the urban communities within the MUSA. Proposals within the Freestanding Growth Centers will be ranked according to the level Of services within the Freestanding Growth Canters with competin.e. proposals. HOUSING PLAN REVIEW GUIDELINES GUIDELINES FOR REVIEW OF HOUSING COMPONENTS OF COMPREHENSIVE PLANS The Council is required to review and cornme~t on all local and county comprehensive plans. The Metropolitan Land Planning Act specifies that a comprehensive plan must "include a housing element containing standards, plans and program.- for providing adequate housing opportunities to meet existing and proje~ed local and regional housing needs, including but not limited to th.- use. of official controls and land-use planning to pro- mote the availability of land for the devstopm:?.n~. of Iow-and-moderate-income housing." The law further specifies that the plan must contain a. housing implementation program to ~r,"/out th~ above objectives, it is clear that the legislation intends for comprehensive plans to contain housing elements which specifically deal with lower-income housing concerns. Distinction between urban and rural plans Experience in reviewing the housing components of comprehensive plans has indicated that distinc~ tions need to be made as to what is required in terms of a housing plan from urban and rural communities. Rural communitibs, according to Council policy, do not have an obligation to pro- vide increased low-and-moderate.income sub- sidized housing, while urban communities (those within the MUSA) clearly do have such responsi- bilities, in addition, urban communities are planning for growth while, according to Develop,. ment Framework policies,.rural communities 4' 7 GEORGE S.

As you may know, the MTC did not construct shelters during 1977. Therefore, those sites briginally proposed for construction in 1977 have been given first priority for the 1978 program. Potential shelter sites originally anticipated for construc- tion in 1978 will now be considered as part of future shelter projects. Attached to this letter is an Exhibit B which shows shelter sites which are being considered for'construction in your City, but which cannot now be considered for construction as part of our 1978 program. Subject to future funding considerations, we will be preparing for later projects which may allow for inclusion of these sites. If there are any additional locations which you would like the MTC to consider for future shelter installations, please contact us by April 1, 1978. If you wish to discuss the 1978 shelter program or require any additional information, please do not hesitate to call. Sincerely, Laurence R.

(2) The newly incorporated SPHNS, Inc and its relation- ship to the 3oint Powers organization. Re No. 1 above: A copy of a report prepared at the request of the 3oint Powers Board of Directors is enclosed. It outlines the services of SPHNS, Inc; it identifies those which are Community Health Services subsidized and those which are provided your resi- dents by virtue of City Council action. Re No. 2 above: SPHNS, Inc. is an entity unto itself, independent, at this time, of the Joint Powers organization. It is for this reason that we are oommunioating direotly with municipalities. We can fully appreciate that with changes in Community Health Services subsidized programs and creation of the Joint Powers organization there may be need for clarification. We hope this communique will serve that purpose. Please feel free to call if you have any questions. We would also ask you to please call us if you know of, or hear of, any person/family who could benefit from any of the services described in the enclosed material. su.~q3, orted by t~ funds from municipalities of suburban henneoin county & the united way ~F~PAP~D FO~ JO~t BOJ3,D OF DIRECTORS , January ~ ~, 1978 8700 west 36th street west 2011 55426 December 13, 1977 st. louis park, minnesota telephone 933°2445 Legislation enacted in 1951 transferred authority and responsibility for providing public health nursing services from the county to local units of government electing to participate in a nursing district. %~is legislation was the forerunner of joint powers agreements. The statutes, under which SPtlNS has been operating, define classifications of Nursing Committee or Board membership and limit such membership to 9 persons. The joint powers agreement provides for considerably more input and involvement by municipalities entering into such agreement than does the current authority-- SPHNS endorses the broader base of authority and responsibility. SPHNS was the first nursing agency in Minnesota to receive certification as a provider of Medicare home health services. The capability of SPHNS to deliver public health nursing sez~ices has been demonstrated throughout its many years of operation. In this current year of Community Health Service programs, it exceeded service expectations of the initial allocation and has been granted additional funds. The additional funds were available to SPHNS because of under utilization in other areas. An appropriate mix of practitioners allows for a matching of skills of the care giver to the needs of patients. S_PH~S currently employs: Professional Staff: 10 full time, state certified, public health nurses 2 part time.',, state certified, public health nurses for child health clinic program and health consultation to day care centers 7 full time licensed practical nurses 1 part time physical therapist consultant 1 part time intake nurse, public health prepared, responsible for intake, coordination of the aide program and tuberculosis control activities sun~oortec] bv tax fur~ from municioalities of suburban hennec~in county a the united v~a? ~' Aide Staff: Office Staff: (full time) full time nursing supervisor with a Masters degree in public health executive director, also M.P.H. prepared full time home health aides accountant/office manager bookkeeper/secretary billing and statistical clerk clerk typists Service personnel are organized in teams or groups according to. geographic area. This allows for more equitable distribution of case load, earlier response to referrals and better coverage during absences of the primary care giver. In the followin~ outline of services, effort has been made to briefly describe SPHN$ programs within the three broa~ areas of public health nursing provided. for in the 1978 Community HealthServices Plan. Asterisks identify Community Health Service subsidized programs. HOME HEALTt{ SERVICES *a) Nq?~ing Car~: medically delegated fuuctions, examples of which are injections, dressing changes, physiological functioning measures, irrigations, rehabilitation programs, etc. *b) .H_ome Heal.th- Aide ca~: personal care (bathing, skin, hair and nail care),.ambulation assistance, food preparation and light house- keeping, tasks. NOTE: It is anticipated that a United Way allocation to SPHNS, in the amount of $57,258, will cover the cost of aide services to families of limited financial resources. c) .~ysical. Th~M~pM Co~%ta~ion.for fullest utilization of nursing skills in patient rehabilitation. Contractual arrangements with ~Curative Services provide for in-home physical~ occupational and speech therapy and coordination with nursing service to Medicare beneficiaries, Information and referral service is provided in behalf of all other patients and attending physicians. 'd) .Tp~ch~s-.Couasel.in~{: Persons with a diagnosed disease/disability who require no physical care are often in need of teaching counsel- ing and/or assessment and monitoring of physical status, medication regime, special dietary needs or activity tolerance in order to improve or maintain current levels of health. II. III. COMMUNITY NURSING SERVICES *a) Health Promotion: Preventive health services to essentially well persons include assessment, teaching and counseling regarding maternal and child care practices, normal growth and development, nutrition, signs and symptoms of illness and preventive measures to reduce the incident of illness and family stress. b) Da% Care Center and Group Home Health Consultation{,' to improve skills of day care center staff and group home parents in identi- fying health problems in children or in identifying children at high risk of inadequate physical, social and emotional growth and development; to improve knowledge and utilization of community resources for management of problems; c) Senior Citizen High Rise Hea%th ~.ro~rams.: incorporates teaching- counseling and health promotion in a one to one relationshiP or group setting; blood pressure screening programs with referral and follow up as indicated. . DISEASE PREVENTION AND CONTROL SERVICES a) Chil~ Health Clinic: Physical examinations, diagnostic tests, immunizations and health counseling for children thru the age of 5 years. Financial eligibility, criteria are utilized for enroll- me~t in the clinic program. Immunization Clinics: for protection against diphtheria, whooping cough, tetanus, measles, german measles, polio and mumps. c) Tuberculosis Control: All newly diagnosed cases of tuberculosis are reported to SPHNS for contact investigation in effort to locate the source case and possible transmission of the disease to others. The telephone may be utilized in control efforts to the extent such is deemed practical and "safe". Written and verbal interchange is maintained between the Minnesota Department of Health, Hennepin County Chest Clinic, private physicians and SPHNS for a coordinated tuber- culosis control program. b) COST OF COMMUNITY HEALTh'SERVICE PROGRAMS *Home Nursing Care Blue Cross, Medicare fiscal intermediary, calcula- (page 2, I a) tion of SPHNS per visit cost during 1976 is $30. Utilizing Medicare accepted methodology, SPHNS calculation of nursing care visit costs for the period January - June, 1977 is.$33. *Home Health Aide Care (page 2, I b) Blue Cross calculation of cost per aide yisit during calender 1976 is $14. Because of the nature of aide service¢ SPHNS charges for services on an hourly basis~ fractionalizing charges for services in excess of one hour. Costs based on January - June~ 1977, activity were $10 per hour. *Health Promotion (page ~, II a) visit costs during the period January through June, 1977 were $20 per visit. As per Blue Cross reports, SPHNS visit costs for the home care services rank among the lowest within the metropolitan area. Although no similar data are available for costs comparisons in the area of health promotion visits, one may assume the favorable comparison to carry over into that and other areas of service as well. COST OF SUPPLEMENTAL PROGRAMS (page 2, I c, d: page 3, II b,c: page 3, III a,b,c) The cost of such services is, to some extent, dependent upon the size of the pop- . ulation base upon which a capitation rate is applied. 1978 cost of these services to our current membership with a population of 269,570, is estimated to be 35¢ per capita. N EWStETTER 10711 T.G. EVENSEN & ASSOCIATES, INC. Municipal Finance Consultants First National Bank Building Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402 612/338-3535 Temporary Financing: A Short-Term Program Any public entity may, on occasion, face financial needs to which temporary financing offers the most appropriate solution. By way of definition, temporary financing is composed of two basic types: "Cash Flow" and "Construction Financing". Cash Flow financing is designed to pay operations and maintenance where costs are incurred more rapidly than designated funds are received. Construction Financing allows capital expenditures pending receipts of grants/aids, future assessments, or revenues, whereby the exact amount of permanent financing will not be known until close to the construction completion date. Issuers which may require temporary financing include School Districts, Cities, Special Districts, and Counties to fund operational requirements prior to receipt of taxes and aids, or to fund municipal utility improvement projects where grants/aids, and definitive financing will not be apportioned until the system is nearly operational. This financing vehicle can be considered in planning for housing, transportation, redevelopment and urban renewal as well. Each state has special authorization requirements and restrictions concerning temporary financing. Basic to sound financial principles is the fundamental premise that the entity possess sufficient sources of revenue to repay the debt obligations at maturity, including revenue derived from permanent financing when required. Although temporary financing serves an appropriate function, it cannot be used as a substitute for proper financial planning. T.G. Evensen & Associates, Inc., a firm long established in comprehensive, fiscal planning, can be of valuable assistance to your community in solving your temporary financing needs. Financial planning at project inception may substantially reduce cash flow deficiency. Whether your temporary financing is accomplished through negotiated or public bidding, you can rest assured that the result of an Evensen handled plan is thorough and to the community's own best interest. Feel free to contact us to discuss this, and other financial options~ specific to your community needs. I.N'I'E~T RATES AND BOND Yl~r,r~S Short-term interest rotes remained fairly level in early December. Holding its own in 1977 against a record volume of $44,91%798,916, the municipal market still promises attractive rates for issuers of municipal bonds. Although the softening of the market in ;lanuary has caused the Bond Buyer's 20-Bond Index to drift to 5.7~% at mid-month, indicating slightly higher borrowing costs, the graph above demonstrates that reinvestment potential is also rising.

We will get a $1,342.50 grant from the National Highway Safety Training Act. 3e Transcriber and Recorders (1 transcriber, 6 portable recorders, 1 telephone hookup line and 30 cassette tapes) Dictaphone Corporation $1,937.42 Wahl and Wahl Corp. 1,854.15 The Police Chief recommends the Dictaphone bid because: We thor- oughly tested all of the equipment of both manufacturers and found that the Linear Equipment to be unacceptable for the following reasons: The transcriber does not have automatic electronic cueing, which is a necessary feature utilized by our secretaries for com- pleting "hot" reports (those needing immediate transcribing) in a timely manner. Secondly, the controls on the dictaphone are more workable and accessable for the secretaries to utilize. Thirdly, the dictaphone is solid state and less likely to have breakdowns. The Linear portable recorders are unacceptable because they do not properly erase prior conversations on the tapes, thereby increasing chances of errors on reports. Further, the controls on the Linear cause skips or blank, space in the tapes when they are shut off and on. The Dictaphone equipment has excellent controls and demonstra- ted none of the problems of the Linear. It is requested and highly recommended that we accept the bid of Dictaphone Corp., even though COUNCIL MEMORANDUM NO. 78-38 SUBJECT: Bids - Police Equipment February 6, 1978 - Page 2 it is $83.47 higher than the Wahl and Wahl bid. 4.

Medical Oxygen and Equipment Co. - 5 Robertshaw oxygen units 1,686.00 (This bid also includes the retesting and filling of four existing tanks now owned by city, a service not included in the Hillcrest Safety bid.) This equipment is budgeted for 1978. It will be used in place of old outdated inefficient units. The old oxygen units average over ten years old and are now effective only for inhalation of pure oxygen, which is often not advisable in emergency situations, further, the pure oxygen can only be administered with an outdated mask. The new units are used as resuscitators (used in conjunction with CPR), have variable flow inhalator function and as an aspirator. In addition, the new units are equipped with a selection of masks. They also will double the amounC of oxygen carried in each of the squads. It is recommended that we accept the Medical Oxygen and Equipment Co. bid. Traffic Radar Equipment - 1978 budgeted purchase Bid: Kustom Signal Co. - 2 KRll traffic radar units with trade in of TR6 radar unit - Less National Highway Safety Training Act grant refund for above equipment - Total City Cost $5,070.00 -1,342.50 $3,727.50 This is the only acceptable bid as no other manufacturer supplies this equipment with the below listed necessary features built into the unit. In researching needed features for traffic radar, it was determined it should be on K-band because it is a less crowded frequency, very efficient, and unlikely to Mr. Kopp Feb. 3, 1978 Page Two be picked up by most "fuzz-busters". Secondly, the unit should have a manual signal lock up for a fail-safe method of defeating the "fuzz-buster". Thirdly, the unit should be solid state circuitry. Fourth, the unit should be adaptable to add on equipment such as automatic traffic counters and cameras. Fifth, it should be automatic and. contain capability of fail-safe internal calibration. Sixth, it should be capable of computing speed and distance to miles per hour. The Kustom Signal equipment is the only manufacturer that provides these features. This unit has been tested by the Minn. Highway Patrol and found it to be excellent equipment. It is now in use by the Minn. Highway Patrol. Further, it has been tested and has met the specifications of the Wisconsin, North Dakota, and New York State Police and is being used by each. 3. Transcriber and portable recorders - 1978 budgeted purchase Bids: 1. Dictaphone Corp. - 1 transcriber, 6 portable recorders, 1 telephone hookup line and 30 cassette tapes - 2. Wahl and Wahl Corp. - 1 Linear transcriber, 6 portable recorders, 1 telephone hookup line and 30 cassette tapes - $1,937.62 1,854.15 It is requested and highly recommended that we accept the bid of Dictaphone Corp., even though it is $83.47 higher than the Wahl and Wahl bid. We thoroughly tested a~l of the equipment of both manufacturers and found that the Linear Equipment to be unacceptable for the following reasons: The transcriber does not have automatic electronic cueing, which is a necessary feature utilized by our secre- taries for completing "hot" reports (those needing immediate transcribing) in a timely manner. Secondly, the controls on the dictaphone~are more workable and accessable for the secretaries to utilize. Thirdly, the dictaphone is solid state and less likely to have breakdowns. The Linear portable recorders are unacceptable because they do not properly erase prior conversations on the tapes, thereby increasing chances of errors on reports. Further, the controls on the Linear cause skips or blank space in the tapes when they are shut off and on.

The breathalyzer now being used by the department was purchased in 1969. In 1977 it was submitted to the Bureau of Criminal Apprehension for repairs. Eldon Eugstead, Head of the Dept. of Breathalyzers at BCA, recommended that the present machine be used no longer as the primary testing machine for the dept., but rather be set aside as a backup due to the frequency of malfunctions and the age of the. machine. The above listed bids are for the Smith and Wesson Simulator which is the only state authorized breathalyzer machine as it is the only machine that is acceptable as evidence in court.

Dear Mr. Levin: In response to the City's request, we are estimating the traffic volume generated by the 58 dwelling units to be 400 trips per day. If access is provided to both Bartlett Boulevard (County Road 125) and Maywood Road, we expect approx.imately half of the trips to use each access. In the event that the only access is to Bartlett Boulevard, we foresee no capacity problems resulting. .The intersection of the new street and Bartlett Boulevard should experience no additional problems with the added traffic volumes. No additional problems are expected at the inter- section of Commerce Boulevard and Bartlett Boulevard. ~w~e can be of furthe? assistance, please cal'l c~vne ~a~sumo~o, v.k.
