5.4. - 5.11. SR 03-25-1996'ity of iver Items 5.4. - 5.11. MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Pat Klaers, City Ad~tr~0r DATE: March 25, 1996 [~J SUBJECT: Administration Items The activity level around City Hall has been very high and, to be truthful, there hasn't been a great deal of time available to do detailed memos on the administration items for the 3/25/96 meeting. Accordingly, this memo on the administration agenda items will be brief and most of the background on the items will be presented verbally at the meeting. 5.4. Ice Arena/Mighty Ducks Grant (Round Two) Per action of the City Council on 3/11/96, the city is on schedule to receive ice arena bids in mid-to-late April (see attachment). Information has been received from the Sports Commission regarding the second round of the Mighty Ducks Grant program (see attachments). Funds at this time have not officially been approved for the second round of the grant program, but this is expected to take place in the very near future. Accordingly, grant applications are due April 5, 1996. The Elk River Grant application will be the same as before with a cover letter explaining the changes in the project to reduce the overall cost of the arena. It is appropriate for the City Council to approve a motion authorizing the resubmission of the Mighty Ducks Grant application for the arena project as amended. 5.5. Cass Property Update The Cass property purchase has been completed. The city now owns 115 acres in the southwest corner of 165th Avenue and Jarvis Street. As previously reviewed by the Council, this property will be used for recreation fields, sludge land (which will later be used for recreation 13065 Orono Parkway · P.O. Box 490 · Elk River, MN 55330 · (612) 441-7420 · Fax: (612) 441-7425 Agenda Memo Page 2 March 25, 1996 fields in fifteen years), and the balance of the property (eastern portion) will be subdivided and marketed for about six (6) home sites. The development of the recreation fields is slowly moving through the Park and Recreation Commission and the funding of these fields is a major issue that will need to be discussed by the Commission and Council at an upcoming joint meeting. The Commission has been trying to obtain commitments from the youth organizations to help finance the development of these fields, but progress has been slow in this regard. Regarding the residential properties for future lots, staff is requesting Council approval to have the city engineer do the survey work and plat under the direction of the city planner. In this manner, the City Council will see a subdivision proposal some time this summer for some city property to be developed as six (6) single family sites. This area is in the 21/2 acre zone of the city which is not scheduled to have sewer and water. 5.6. Administration Personnel- Clerical Staff Adiustments The work load is getting heavier in all the administration departments and more assignments and work are being passed on to the clerical staff for processing. The request which follows is not a "knee jerk" reaction to not having the economic development coordinator on staff and having more work fall on my desk. The work load has been increasing for some time and some clerical adjustments have been discussed for over a year. It is recommended that Administrative Secretary Alice Heinecke have her title adjusted to more accurately reflect the work that she has been doing. The new title recommended is Executive Secretary and the pay range will go from Grade 8 to Grade 10. Additionally, it is recommended that her pay step of G plus $.35 be adjusted from Grade 8 to Grade 10. This Executive Secretary position, pay range, and ranking was identified in the comparable worth plan that the Council approved last year. Another clerical adjustment that is needed is to change the status of Joni Pearson as a part time office service worker to a full time office service worker. Joni is an outstanding worker and her services are needed in the administration area to help with the clerical work load for the finance, economic development, administration, street/park, fire, WWTS, and the "anything else that gets left on our desk" Agenda Memo Page 3 March 25, 1996 departments. There is no change being requested in the pay grade or hourly pay for Joni. Both of these changes would be effective Tuesday, March 26, 1996. 5. 7. City/County 3/19 Joint Meeting It is appropriate to review our discussions with the County Board that took place on 3/19/96. A number of topics should receive some discussion by the City Council including: County Road 1 improvements, County Road 12 improvements, a review of the Steering Committee's recommendation on the transportation plan, the city street next to the County Administration building, and the city's position on the Fair relocation (or not). 5.8. MSA System The city has less than a mile to add to its MSA system. Mileage being added to the map ensures that the city will receive its maximum annual MSA funds. The street designations can change provided funds have not been spent on improvements to that section of the street. Attached for your review is some material from the city engineer on adding mileage to our MSA system. It is being recommended that we add a future road connection between County Road 12 and 173rd/175th (the Snake Trail) east of Highway 169. A complete map of the city MSA system will be available on Monday. 5.9. Riverview Heights Sewer and Water Information The City Council received an update on the general opinions of the residents that attended the Riverview Heights sewer and water informational meeting. However, during that Council update, a request was made for more specific information on the actual cost of the improvements for this neighborhood. The city engineer has included this information in the packet. 5.10. Rip Rap Grant Application Attached for your consideration is the rip rap grant application that the city annually submits. We actually receive funds about every third year, but sometimes you can get lucky and can receive the funds more frequently. It is recommended that we submit the grant application again in 1996 for the third phase of the rip rap project which would go from the Dare funeral home area further to the southwest. Agenda Memo March 25, 1996 Page 4 5.11. Last year the HRA provided the matching funds for this project. If the Council is going to ask the HRA to provide the match for this application, then this request should formally be made and processed to the HRA. The Council should always be aware that this request may not be approved and that it may have to identify city funds for the local match (or half the match if the HRA splits this expense with the city). Meeting Schedule A number of meetings should be set up for the near future. These meetings include: City Council/Planning Commission; City Council/Park and Recreation Commission; City Council/Utilities Commission; City Council- Consideration of the Master Park and Recreation Plan; City Council - CIP Worksession (finance and plan overview). s:XcouncilX325agmm.doc 03-22-96 IO'2?AM ROM 339 6?60 TO 4417 25 PO02 / ITEM 5.4. .ADVERTIS£MENT FOR BID,~ PUBLIC BIDDING NOTICE ADDITION TO THE ELK RIVER ICE ARENA Bids Open :2:00 PM CDST, 23 April 1996 Elk~Rivcr City Hall.

(MIGHTY DUCI~) Enclosed you will find a copy of the new Request for Proposal (RFP) for the potential next round of grants. - ' This RFP was publish.ed in the March 4 issue of the "State Register". The RFP is contingent upon positive action by the 1996 Legislature. At the time of this mailing, it remains uncertain.. · what the legislature will determine. Assuming there is a program and in order to assist communities who are ready to' construct in 1996, we have established an April 5, 1996 deadline. The Minnesota Amateur ~ports · Commission (MA. SC) may act as early as April 22, 1996 on some applicants. Correspondingly, we have an October 5, 1996 deadline for those communities interested in constructing in 1997. The MASC would act as early as December 16, 1996 on those respective applicants.. Please note that the new RFP significantly simplifies the format'required for renovation grants. · Also, to the extent possible and practical, the MASC will again use congressional districts as a general guideline to award grants to achieve geographic equity.

Mary Eberley suggested that some discussion be given to how growth can be slowed. Steve Ach explained that when the urban service boundary is established, growth management practices may be implemented such as restricted minimum lot sizes, to control growth. He noted that there are residents in the northern area currently in the 10 acre minimum lot size zoning who want it reduced to 2-1/2 acres. He explained with the current zoning, the population saturation coul~ be 40,000. * Dave Anderson expressed his concern regarding the high traffic counts projected for the proposed roadway. He stated that he has spoken with Mn/DOT officials, the Sherburne County Highway Engineer, the District A.P.O. He explained that the Mn/DOT supports the practice that external-external traffic use their system and not minor arterials within a city or rural area. Dave indicated that the Distdct A.P.O. appeared to be shocked by the proposed traffic projections for Highway 169 and Highway 10. He sated that he cannot support the need for the corridor for the reason that it does not serve the citizens of Elk River. ARNE ENGSTROM MOVED THAT THE NEED FOR AN EAST/WEST CORRIDOR AND ITS ALIGNMENT BE STUDIED BY A JOINT COMMrI'i'EE CONSISTING OF REPRESENTATIVES OF THE CITY OF ELK RIVER, SHERBURNE COUNTY, BIG LAKE TOWNSHIP, ANOKA COUNTY, WRIGHT COUNTY AND THE CITY OF OTSEGO; AND THAT THE DISTRICT APO AND MN/DOT BE INVITED TO PARTICIPATE AS NEEDED. ALSO, THAT TWO (2) CITIZEN REPRESENTATIVES AND A PARK AND RECREATION COMMISSION MEMBER BE INCLUDED ON THE COMMII'i'EE. DICK HINKLE SECONDED THE MOTION. Steering Committee Minutes April 6, 1996 Page 8 Discussion followed regarding the motion. Mary Eberley suggested that more than two citizens could serve on the committee. Dave Anderson suggested the citizens meet and select individuals to serve on the committee.

Box 490 Elk River, MN 55330 RE: DESIGNATION OF MUNICIPAL STATE AID ROUTES Dear Mr. Klaers: We have finished the update of the Municipal State Aid system and find that the City has approximately six-tenths of a mile of undesignated MSA route. Last year, there was approximately half of this amount; therefore, no designation of new MSA routes was made in 1995. Previous to that, in 1994, we deleted some routes and added 201st Avenue, 193rd Avenue, and a south frontage road in the Western Area. These roads reflected components of the draft transportation plan. Six-tenths of a mile does not allow a major addition to the City's MSA system. However, with the revoking of a current MSA route, perhaps one of the small segments located in the downtown area such as Lowell or Evans Avenue south of Main Street, we could designate the proposed route from County Road 12 (181st Avenue) south to 175th Avenue. In the future, as more mileage becomes available, we could complete the route from 175th Avenue down to 171st, and out to TH 10. As you are aware, we have previously sent a letter to Mike Tardy, District 3 State Aid Engineer, indicating that the City would be considering this addition to the system. He has made a review of this preliminary request and has indicated that he finds it acceptable. I have enclosed a copy of the 1995 Municipal State Aid Street System map on which I have indicated where this addition would be. I will be in attendance at Monday evening's meeting should you or any of the Council members have questions regarding this issue. Sincerely, MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS Terry J. Maurer, P.E.

RE: RIVERVIEW HEIGHTS COST ESTIMATE Dear Mr. Klaers: CIVIL ENGINEERING~ ENVIRONMENTAL MUNICIPAL PLANNING SOLID WASTE STRUCTURAL SURVEYING TRAFFIC TRANSPORTATION As directed by the City Council, we have made a more detailed estimate of the costs for providing City utilities and new streets in the Riverview Heights development. We have estimated the total cost of the project to be slightly more than $1.5 million. This would include sewer extended down from the County Administration Building where it is currently located, water looped through the development, storm drainage as required, and new streets including concrete curb and gutter. To the total construction costs we have added a 5 % contingency and the normal 28 % City overhead. To get to a total assessment per lot of between $12,000 and $12,500, we have assumed the City would fund the cost of sanitary sewer from where it is located to County Road 30. We have also assumed that the City would pay for trunk oversizing of the watermain and approximately half of the street construction costs. Based on these assumptions and the contingency and normal overhead discussed earlier, the City's cost would be approximately $450,000. The following table gives a breakdown of these costs: ELECTRICAL/MECHANICAL ENGINEERING: HVAC POWER DISTRIBUTION SCADA SYSTEM CONTROLS OFFICES IN: Item Riverview Assessment City Cost Sanitary Sewer $250,000 $71,500 Water $183,000 $4,500 Storm Sewer $120,000 -0- Streets $260,000 $260,000 Total Construction Costs $813,000 $336,000 Contingency (5 %) $40,700 $16,800 $227,600 $94,100 City Overhead (28%) TOTAL PROJECT COST $1,081,300 $446,900 MINNEAPOLIS PRIOR LAKE ST. PAUL WASECA An Equal Opportunity Employer Mr. Pat Klaers March 22, 1996 Page Two As you can see from these estimated costs, the City is assumed to be carrying a fairly large burden of the project cost. I do not believe there is much additional room for the City to contribute any more dollars to bring the assessment on a per lot basis any lower. If you have any questions regarding this analysis, please call. Sincerely, MSA, CONSULTING ENGINEERS Ter~ry j~. au~~ er,~p.

RE: RIP-RAP GRANT APPLICATION FOR WORK ALONG MISSISSIPPI RIVER Dear Mr. Klaers' CIVIL ENGINEERING: ENVIRONMENTAL MUNICIPAL PLANNING SOUD WASTE STRUCTURAL SURVEYING TRAFFIC TRANSPORTATION ELECTRICAL/MECHANICAL ENGINEERING: HVAC POWER DISTRIBUTION SCADA SYSTEM CONTROLS As you know, we have received grants totaling nearly $45,000 from the Sherburne County Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD) for placement of rip-rap along the Mississippi River in the downtown area. This work has significantly eliminated erosion problems in the area and is a cost-effective measure that should last many years. It is time again to apply for 1996 funds. Discussions with Mr. Bill Bronder at the SWCD indicate they have $150,000 available in 1996, which will be used to provide 50% funding for approved projects. The attached application requests $25,000 from the SWCD. As in 1991 and 1994, the City must be willing to match the grant with $25,000. It would be appropriate for this grant application to be discussed and approved at an upcoming City Council meeting. Should the application be approved, please sign and date two copies of the application in the places we have marked, and return them to me. As with past grant applications, there are no guarantees that ours will be selected, but we believe we have a good chance. Please contact me if you have any questions.

(attach an eligibility checklist) Project Name 1996 Mississippi River Bank E~osion Elk River, Minnesota Description of the problem: (include photographs of the project site) Rip rap is currently located approximately 600 feet west of the Elk River Bridge over the Mississippi River. Erosion continues to occur where the existing rip rap ends. We are requesting funding assistance to further mitigate these erosion problems. Project Objectives: (l) (2) (3) To control existing erosion problems along the Mississippi River and protect the river bank. To allow further City planning to continue for a boardwalk and park along the Mississippi River, as shown by attached map. Description of Measures Planned: (if pot the least cost control method(s), explain; if a continuation of a previously funded SLR project, explain) This project would be a continuation of previous'ly funded SLR Project: in May 1991 and May 1994. These projects allowed placement of rip rap from the Elk River Bridge to the west. This application would allow extension of this rip rap further to the west. Rip rap is the most cost effective solution to the problem. Project Timetable: (Include a projected completion date) Upon approval of the SLR application, the City would seek bids from private contractors. We would plan to construct the improvement as soon as possible following bids, at a time when the water level is low. The 1991 and 1994 projects were const~-~cted in the winter.-' Itemized Projects Costs: (Include engineering costs if applicable) 2/86 Funding and Sources: Federal share State share Local share Total 5O 5O %. or $ %. or $.. 25 , 000 . 00 ~, or $,25,000.00 $ 50,000.00 source S0UKCe, SLR proqram source,City Briefly Answer the Following Questions: (a) Does the proposed solution provide a long term remedy (cause of the problem is corrected), or is just the effect of the problem being corrected? (b) What is the extent of on-site and/or off-site damages? (Use quantifiable terms such as the cost to clean out road ditches or tons of soil loss occurring). {c) Is the problem causing area under-the control of the applicant? (d} Identify public benefits resulting from the completed project? (a) The placement Or rip rap would provide a long term solution to areas with current erosion problems. Erosion has steadily continued nortk of the projects completed in 1991 and 1994. (b) The bank is severly eroded with a number of dead trees and holes in the riverbank. Floating debris covers the area of erosion during peak flows of the River. We would estimate a tremendous amount of soil is carried into the River, but it is difficult to put a quanti- fiable estimate on the problem. (c) The land adjacent to the River is owned by the City of Elk River. (d) We would see at least two public benefits from completion of this project. The first benefit would be to save~the riverbank and minimize erosion polluting the Mississippi River. The~second, long term benefit of saving the riverbank is to allow the City to plan construction of a boardwalk and park along the Mississippi River.
