Dear Dick:
On December 1, 1978 at approximately 1615 hours you were dispatched to the
area of Cooks Bay regarding a person having fallen through the ice on a
snowmobile. At the scene you and the two passerbys, John Geyen and Timothy~
Geyen, located the'victim a considerable distance out onto the lake and sub-
sequently rescued him from the freezing water.
The successful rescue was accomplished by obtaining a small boat on shore and
pushing it across the ice until it became too thin to support your weight.
You then broke the thin ice in front of the boat by kicking and jumping on
it and propelled the boat to the victim by paddling with your hands. UPon
pulling the victim from the water and into the boat, you then paddled back to
shore using your hands.
Your efforts and the efforts of Joh'n and Timothy Geyen were extraordinary in
the performance of this hazardous and most d~fficult water rescue. Undoubtedly
your rescue directly resulted in saving the life of the victim, Mr. Earl Hartin
of Spring Park, Hinn.
I thank and commend you for your effort which went above and beyond any normal
call of duty.
Sincerely,
Charles Johnson
Chief of Police

RE: Beachside Apartments
Dear Mr. Kopp:
The 30-day review period for the environmental assessment work-
sheet (EAW) on the above project ended on January 17, 1979. No
objections to the EAW's determination that an environmental
impact statement (EIS) is needed on the project were received.
Therefore, the decision stands.
Notice of this decision will be published in the EQB Monitor
on January 29, 1979. The Responsible Agency (City of Mound)-will
have 120 days from that date to prepare the Draft Environmental
Impact Statement.
Sincerely,

BEACHSIDE EIS
JANUARY 19, 1979
The purpose of this memorandum is to add'information and recommendation on the
Beachside Apartment environmental review process.
StatuS of Project Proposal
In terms of compliance with local ordinances, the project proposal is
currently under conditional use permit review pending public hearing
and determination by the City Council. The local CUP review process,
in turn, has been held up in conformance with the State of Minnesota
Environmental Policy Act of 1973 calling for the mandatory preparation
of an environmental assessment on residential development construction
within the Lake Minnetonka shoreline area defined by Minnesota Statutes,
Section 105.485, consisting of 50 or more units. Herein, the 54 unit
Beachside proposal dictates a mandatory EA preparation.
By preparing the Beachside Apartment Environmental Assessment, the City
has followed state law in its preparation and submittal onto the
EQB for their processing. Subsequently, your office has been notified
by the EQB that after its 30 day objection filing period, the Environ-
mental Assessment's Finding of need for the preparation of an EIS has
been upheld by EQB. Furthermore, the EQB has ordered the City (acting
as responsible agency) to prepare the EIS on the Beachside Apartment
proposal. A more detailed EQB review process diagram is attached to
this memo.
II. City'Responsibility'and'Recommendations
With the project already going through the first three steps of the EQB
review process, now the City is ordered to prepare the EIS.
a. 'Local'Ordinance'Review -.
It is recommended that any City Council action on the local con-
~ ditional use permit issuance be delayed once again until an adequate
~ clearance is forthcoming from the State EQB.
b."O?de~ing'the'preParation of'the EIS
To conform to state law and EQB mandates, it is recommended the City
order the preparation of a Beachside Apartments EIS. This entire
process involving a 120 day study period and agency review procedure
will take from 230 to 360 days for state clearance. If the study .
is prepared earlier than 120 days and good cooperation at state/local
agencies results, it is conceivable to achieve a shorter time period
than 230 days.
c. Cost of the EIS
By State EQB regulation, if the proposed project in need of EIS
preparation is one million dollars or more in value then the City
may charge back to the private developer the cost of the EIS
preparation, up to 3% of the project cost (i.e., $30,000 on a
million dollar project). Therefore, since the Beachside Apartment
project is valued by the developer at one million dollars on his
City permit application forms, and knowing that a 54 unit apartment
building at today's cost is probably well in excess of $1 million,
it is recommended that the City Council, along with ordering the
EIS preparation, require the developer to furnish some form of se-
curity such'as a letter of credit, etc., to insure proper payment
for work performed by the City on the EIS.
It will take a more detailed appraisal of the project proposal to
clearly estimate a specific cost for the EIS preparation. My past
EIS work has shown that many EIS's are less than 3% of the project
cost, especially on a small site such as the Beachside proposal.
A figure of between $10,000 to $20,000 is not uncommon on a study
of this scope and nature. Working out these details in the
upcoming weeks can take place.
d. Technical Assistance in the EIS Preparation
Along with having the developer pay for the costs of the EIS, the
City will have to seek technical assistance in the study preparation.
It is best that the firm preparing the EIS give a detailed proposal
to the City on the cost of the study, estimated hours of work,
timetable, outcome of study, etc., to insure the City adequately
meets state law.
As we discussed earlier, our firm maintains years of experience in
EIS preparation and would feel comfortable providing the technical
services to. the City in carrying-out the Beachside EIS project,
aside from the limited engineering work tasks.

BEACHSIDE APARTMENT PROJECT
JANUARY 29, 1979
From directiOn given'by the Mound City Council and your office, the following
represents a recommended program proposal for the City to follow in adequately
preparing to meet the EQB mandate in preparing an EIS for the Beachside Apart-
ment Proposal.
A. Agreement With Projec.~. Sponsor
Consistent with the EQB 1977 rules and regulations, Chapter 15, Section
3.041, require the project sponsor to enter into agreement with the City
for the developer to fully compensate the City for expenditures incurred
in the preparation of the Beachside EIS. Moreover, it is recommended the
developer deposit with the City a cash payment equal to the EIS prepara-
tion cost estimate prior to the City commencing on the project work.
B. EIS Program Tasks, Cost, and Timetable
1. Tasks - preparing the EIS to meet EQB requirements - a program with three
major elements:
a. drafting the EIS - the actual stUdy document preparation is the key
ta'sk Which involves analyzing the site's physical environment, making
judgements as to the proposed project's adverse affects on the environ-
ment, and recommending ways, if needed, to mitigate potential adverse
environmental affects of construction.
b. additional technical assistance - it is estimated that a limited amount
of professional engineer'ing assistance is needed to supplement the
planner's efforts in Order to accurately analyze and discuss eigineer-
ing solutions to potential adverse environmental affects (i.e., drain-
age, diking, ponding, etc., of runoff).
c. mee~iEgs - while the study part of the program is most time consuming,
the multitude of meetings necessary to perform a successful EIS are
demanding. It is estimated that the initial meetings with the staffs
of EQB, DNR, Watershed District, Corps, MPCA, and developer will rep-
resent approximately 7-10, along with up to another dozen or so meet-
ings in the review process to final draft EIS.
2. Cost - the estimated cost of preparing and administering the Beachside
EIS for the planner is $7,050 in parts:
a. drafting study and document (208 hrs. 0 $25)
(research, writing, typing, mapping, graphics)
b. Meetings (20 at 3 hrs. 0 $25)
c. Printing (50 xerox copies of 50-75 report in B/W)

COUNCIL MEMORANDUM NO. 79-42
SUBJECT: Prosecuting Attorney-
The Council has requested a report on the money paid the Prosecuting
Attorney and has requested the Attorney appear at a Council meeting so
the new members would have a chance to meet him.
Mr. Piepkorn will be at the February 6th Council meeting. Piepkorn was
hired in February and really didn't get into full work until March,
therefore, the calculations start with March and go through December.
Inasmuch as the pay is a flat fee plus an hourly pay fee for all work
over the minimum, some look should be taken to see if the work load has
increased. Attached is a report showing the police activities that the
Prosecutor derives his work from, and as well as best can be determined,
which cases went to Court.
The number of tickets issued by the Police increased in all categories
except for open bottle and it was down one.
Court activities - not guilty pleas increased, while guilty pleas de-
creased. The not guilty pleas increases the amount of court work.
Also, the number of bad checks we have sought attorney's help on in-
creased in 1978 as well as ordinance tags.
There is no good way that we can compare the amount of work an attorney
is required to do during the month except what his bills cover.
Also, we know that when we change attorneys, other attorneys always seem
to "try" the new man to see what they can get by him.

Dear Leonard:
At the request of the Spring Park'Council and a member of your
Council this is an inquiry on the status of Spring Park's request
for possible interconnection of the two cities' water lines.
Perhaps these points of information may clear up concerns that
were expressed by members o£ your Council.
1. This interconnection would be on an emergency basis
only. Our present wells are more than adequate to
serve our domestic demand and there is no intention
to buy water for this purpose. Also, Spring Park is
considering installation of a new well to supplement
our present supply.
2. Spring Park presently has an interconnection with the'
City of Orono which could be drawn on in an emergency
in either Spring Park or Mound. This valve has been opened
on severaloccasions, for the benefit of both Orono and
Spring Park.
3. One of the primary purposes of this interconnection is
that the Mound Fire Chief, Gene Garvais, has strongly
recommended that this be completed as soon as possible
for the benefit of both cities.
Originally, the thought was for interconnection at the Seton
Bridge, but in light of the proposed new bridge on CSAH 125,
perhaps that area might be more feasible..
These suggestions are merely areas for discussion and the
Spring Park Council would be happy-to discuss these items with
the Mound Council whenever time could be arranged.
May we here from you at your earliest convenience.

Juvenile Problems in the area of downtown Mound
For the past several years young people loitering in the downtown area, primarily
the public parking lot north of the Mound Medical Clinic, have generated numerous
complaints from businessmen and passersby regarding indiscriminate vandalism and
unruly and intimidating conduct. The clinic parking lot is an on-going gathering
place for youth, most of whom are juveniles. The criminal conduct of these people
has resulted in thousands of dollars in damage. For example, during 1978 alone
the clinic building suffered over $6,000 in damage and the Super Valu store suffer-
ed over $23,000 in damage in a fire, which, although classified as arson, is an
outstanding example of the indiscriminate vandalism done by some of these young
people. This coupled with other acts of vandalism, disorderly conduct and litter-
ing makes this area an inordinantly big problem. Certainly not all people loiter-
ing in the area are involved, but the security created by the numbers of people
hanging out in the area seems to incourage antisocial and destructive behavior by
many.
It is very difficult to enforce the many violations that occur in the area which
include not only mentioned above, but many traffic violations such as careless
driving and speeding and other violations such as consuming and possession of
alcohol and the use, possession, and sale of narcotics. When police officers are
in the immediate area the crowds generally disperse, but as soon as the police
officer leaves, even for a short time, the problems reoccur. Enforcement of the
violations that occur generally require a police officer to observe the violation
to make an arrest. Violations witnessed by citizens are often unsatisfactory
because the citizen can only identify the group and not a specific individual that
may have committed a violation. Further, complaining citizens and businessmen may
then be subjected to further harassment. To cope with the problem we have assigned
police officers to hidden surveillance of the area on many occasions to identify
violators. As a result many arrests have been made, but this approach is impract-
ical because it requires two officers over lengthy periods of time, and we do not
have sufficient personnel to assign them in this manner on an on-going basis.
It is my opinion that the police department, city, and the school district have made
sufficient efforts to provide alternatives and recreation for young people. It is
not necessary for the youths to just "hang out" downtown. The school and the city
spend large sums of money on athletic, social, and other programs for young people.
The police department and the city provide the Free B youth center and sponsor an
Explorer scouting program.
Further, it is my opinion public agencies cannot continually provide all special
service, social, and athletic programs as the only answer. The parents of youth
must be responsible for their children's behavior and be accountable for knowing
the whereabouts and activities of their children. If parents are held, at least
in part, accountable for their children's behavior I believe the ongoing problems
that have been demonstrated in the downtown area will decrease.
For these reasons I recommend that the Mound city ordinance be amended to provide
the police department with an enforceable law to control the criminal conduct of
· these young people and secondly to place in jepordy the parents of those young
people that allow this behavior.
I want to make it clear that the antisocial and criminal behavior being demonstrated
in the downtown area is by a relatively small number of youth. Most young people
are no problem whatsoever and they have healthy activities to take up their free
time.
It is recommended that Mound city ordinance chapter 51, section 51.02 "Lurking and
Loitering" be amended to read as follows.
Lurking, lounging, loitering, or being concealed in, upon, or near~
~the public streets, highways, roads, alleys, parks, playgrounds, side-
walks or other public grounds, and public buildings, places of amuse-
ment, entertainment or refreshment, vacant lots, parking lots, or other
unsupervised places or any property, whether public or private, not his
own,
(1) when such conduct results in the making of any noise, riot, dis-
turbance or improper diversion, to the annoyance or disturbance of
another, or
(2) when such conduct tends reasonably to or is likely to arouse alarm,
anger, fear, or resentment in another, or
(3) When such conduct is with intent to do any mischief or to commit
any crime or unlawful act, or.
(4) When such persons shall'collect in groups or crowds in, 'upon, or
near any street, sidewalk or public place in said city so as to
obstruct public travel or movement thereof.
(5) Further, it is unlawful for any adult, parent, or guardian to know-
ingly or negligently permit their juvenile child to violate this
ordinance. The second violations by a juvenile of this ordinance
shall be prima facie evidence that the adult, parent, or guardian
knowingly or negligently permitted the juvenile to violate this
ordinance.

SUBJECT: Consulting Service
Council Memorandum No. 79-30 discussed with the Council the possibility of
getting a consultant to look at the operation of the Police Department.
The Council asked for a background check on the proposed consultant along
with another price. We checked with the Cities of Brooklyn Park, Robbins-
dale and Oakdale in this area and they were all more than satisfied with
his services.
A call was made to the City of Beloit, Wisconsin, where the consultant was
on the Police Department for many years. In discussion with the City Manag-
er's Secretary, we found that they were satisfied with his services and that
he left their employ of his own volition.
With regard to price for the service, a discussion was had with the Public
Administration. Service in Chicago and I was informed that their cost for a
similar study would run $5,000 to $7,500.
If the City Council is interested in an in-depth look at the department, the
$3,000 cost seems a good buy.

The City Council requested that we get some quotations on the cost
of having an engineering firm study the water and sewer rates and
also the possibility of taking a look at the operating procedures.
We have received three quotations which are: (Copies of the proposals
submitted by these firms are attached.)
Black & Veatch proposes $6,000 each for Water and Sewer Rates and
$3,000 each for studying the Water and Sewer Operation. $18,000.
Total.
Kirkham, Michael and Associates propose $5,000 each for Water and
Sewer Rates and a cost lower than $10,000, if both studies are made
at the same time. It should be noted that the cost could exceed
the price quoted with City Council approval. They quote $7,000.
plus out-of-pocket expenses for the sewer and water operation study.
Total $17,000.
Hickok and Associates quote a total of $8,000 for the sewer and
water rate study including the operation study. Should the Council
want only the rate study for water and sewer, that cost would be
$5,850.
It is recommended the quotation of Hickok and Associates be accepted.

$ 6,000
Wastewater Rate Study
$ 6,000
Water Operations Study
(Organization)
$ 3,000
Wastewater Operations Study
(Organization) $ 3,000
Total for All Four Studies
if Performed Concurrently
$ 15,000
The scope of the work would include: the review of historical operations;
a five year projection of future operations; a cost of service study by
customer classifications; design of cost of service rate schedules;
review of the overall operations and organization.

Re: Rate Study Proposal
Dear Leonard:
In accordance with your request we are pleased to present a proposal
for conducting a study on water and sewer rates for the City of
Mound.
As indicated to you verbally, rate studies are rather tedious tasks
and unfortunately tend to be rather expensive. We are, however,
pleased that you contacted our firm and sincerely appreciate your
continued interest in E. A. Hickok and Associates.
We are prepared to provide the necessary personnel to prepare a water
and sewer rate study and include a cost of service study. It is our
opinion that the cost of service portion of the rate study i~ essen-
tial in determining exactly where money is being spent (fixed costs)
and where improvements in operating expenses may be improved. In
addition, the cost of service study provides the necessary data to
properly prepare budgets in the ensuing years.
We propose to provide the necessary personnel to perform the water
and sewer rate study, including a cost of service study, for the sum
of Eight Thousand Dollars ($8,000.00). Our services would include
preparation of a report and presentation to the council upon comple-
tion. Twelve copies of the report would be furnished to the City.
If you have any questions and/or comments, please feel free to
contact me at 473-4224.
Sincerely,
E. A. HICKOK AND ASSOCIATES

Attached is a copy of a letter from the Police Chief about the possi-

It appears the next step is a cost study. Since such a study would
not be a commitment on the part of the City, it is recommended we
join in the study.

Utilization of Mound School District Building Space for the
Police Department
On January 23, 1979 I met with Don Brandenburg, Gary Mayer, and Wayne Smith,
representatives of the Mound School District, for the purpose of touring the
school facility at Lynwood and Commerce and for discussion on the possibility
of the police department leasing space on the basement level of the school
(the current district offices). The school board has authorized evacuation
of the older portion of the Mound school building and the northern most pods
of the new section of this facility effective the 1979-80 school year.
School staff has recommended to the school board not to sell this property
but rather to retain ownership for anticipated enrollment increases in the
1990's. It is their plan to move the central administration offices to the
northern pods and to lease space on all three floors of the older building
to non-profit or government organizations.
In the past there has been discussion of the need for adequate facilities for
police department use. It is my opinion the space available at the school may
be suitable but to accurately determine the feasibility and cost effectiveness
of using this space should be studied further if it is agreed by the council
and yourself that the need exists.
At this time there are no exact cost.figures available, however I was told the
lease would be strictly on a cost basis. It would be necessary to negotiate
with the school district to arrive at a firm cost. Among the considerations
to be considered or negotiated would be their base for determining actual cost
and if their cost included such things as maintenance and upkeep, utilities, and
remodeling or capital improvements that may be necessary to the building.
It is my recommendation we completely study the feasibility of utilizing this
space and enter into discussions with the school district to determine exact
costs. When the feasibility and costs are determined there would then be
3Z2.
sufficient information to access the cost effectiveness of such a move.
Respectful ly,
Chief of Police

Gentlemen:
A situation has arisen with respect to these two
files which we would like to call to your attention. While
we do not think there is an 'insoluble problem, you should
know what has occurred.
On July 6, 1978, we were asked to represent Aetna
in the Perron case. In that case the City of Mound has been
sued by one of its employees who worked in a municipal liquor
store for malicious prosecution arising out of the claimed
sale of liquor to a minor. Aetna refused to defend the City
because of a limitation in its policy, and the City served a
third-party complaint against Aetna. There has been no other
activity on the file.

AND
Miller vs. Huesman vs...Cit. Y of Mound
January 30, 1979
Page 2
In Miller, the City is a co-defendant in an action
arising out of flood damage to a house which occurred in
mid-1978. We were asked by Aetna to appear for the City in
that case and have served an answer on its behalf.
There appear to be no facts common to both cases
and it does not appear that any information we may obtain
from the City in the Miller case will have any bearing on
the Perron case, or vice versa. However, because we represent
the City in Miller and we represent Aetna in its defense
against the ~ity's claim in Perron, we want to ensure there is
not even an appearance of impropriety.
In accordance with the Code of Professional Respon-
sibility, especially Ethical Considerations 4-5, 5-16 and 5-17
and Disciplinary Rule 5-105, we are describing this situation
to you. We do not believe we are representing differing
interests in these two cases, and thus we do not recommend
that either of you retain other counsel. The sole purpose
of this letter is to acquaint you with our involvement in
both cases.

requests that the County undertake a complete traffic study on CSAHs 15 & 110
in the Mound Central Business District (CBD).
Please be advised that our Traffic Division has just received copies of all
the accident reports within this described area from Police Chief Johnson

traffic volume counts will be necessary at various locations within the CBD
to supplement the accident data. It is estimated that the full investigat-~:)n

Dear Leonard:
The telephone line connected to the warning siren in Mound was
throughly checked January 12, 1979. We could not find any
trouble with the line or the associated central, office connection.
On January 16, 1979 we changed the existing line to a new line
which you asked to be done. If the city has any further problem
with the siren, please have someone report it to our repair
department at 472-8877.
It is our understanding that the City of Mound is working with
Lehn Electric, Anoka, Minnesota to install a special "selective
controller" for the siren. We would like to meet with a rep-
resen:tative from the City of Mound and Lehn Electric as soon as
possible to discuss the operation of your "selective controller"
for the siren.
Sincerely, ~ . .
