Approve Letter for Hamel Volunteer Fire Department Truck Financing 10 Johnson stated that he asked Batty to review the approval and written agreement and 11 Batty has proposed some changes. 12 13 Batty stated that he had the bond counsel for the City review the agreement and she felt 14 that the suggested phrasing could be improved and therefore suggested some proposed 15 language. He explained that the Fire Department is using this tool to obtain tax exempt 16 financing, which is fine, but one requirement is that there is a written contract with the 17 Fire Department and at least one City. He stated that the agreement as amended 18 acknowledges the contract that is in place but that is it. He noted that the bond counsel 19 did attempt to reach the financing party for the Fire Department but did not receive a 20 response. He suggested that the Council approve the amended language as proposed 21 by the bond counsel and if the finance company for the Fire Department has a problem 22 with the changed language the Council can consider that in January. 23 24 Moved by Martin, seconded by Pederson, to approve the acknowledgement for financing 25 and written agreement regarding the Hamel Volunteer Fire Department truck financing 26 as proposed by legal counsel.

He 47 stated that the Planning Commission also had a thorough discussion to recommend 48 some changes to language and recommended unanimous approval to the City Council. 49 He stated that the intent would be to present the plan to the City Council at the January 50 meetings. He reported that the Planning Commission also met the previous night to hold 51 a public hearing on the land use applications for Woodridge Church in regard to their lot Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 3 December 20, 2016 1 combination and building expansion, noting that the Commission recommended 2 unanimous approval of those requests as well. He stated that the Council will consider 3 those requests at their second meeting in January. 4 5 Mitchell referenced the legal agreement between the City and Woodridge Church and 6 asked when that agreement was dated. 7 8 Batty replied that the agreement was reached in 2013 and that settlement established a 9 maximum square footage and number of parking spaces. He stated that from what he 10 has seen, the proposal is within what is allowed under the 2013 agreement. 11 12 VIII. NEW BUSINESS 13 14 A. Ordinance No. 606 Establishing the AutoMotorPlex of Medina Storm Sewer 15 Improvement Tax District — Public Hearing (7:16 p.m.) 16 Johnson noted that this is a housekeeping item, noting that the intent is to ensure that 17 the storm sewer elements are maintained. He explained that if the improvements are 18 not maintained the City would be able to use this taxing authority to fund the necessary 19 improvements. 20 21 Batty stated that this has been done repeatedly, but mostly in a residential development. 22 He noted that it would make sense to follow the same process in this instance as 23 eventually the individual units will have separate ownership. He stated that in the 20 24 years the City has been using this tool, they have yet to have the need to use the tool. 25 26 Mitchell opened the public hearing at 7:19 p.m. 27 28 No comments made. 29 30 Moved by Anderson, seconded by Cousineau, to close the public hearing at 7:20 p.m. 31 Motion passed unanimously. 32 33 Moved by Martin, seconded by Anderson, to adopt Ordinance No. 606 Establishing the 34 AutoMotorPlex of Medina Storm Sewer Improvement Taxing District.

He noted that the preliminary 46 approval was provided by the Council two years ago, and the applicant has now applied 47 for final plat. He reviewed the intent of the final plat, to review the consistency between 48 the preliminary and final plats and ensure the conditions have been met. He stated that 49 the final plat is identical to the preliminary plat. He noted that some conditions will be 50 continued and advised that the applicant has requested an extension to allow one year 51 to record the final plat. He stated that staff supports that request. Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 4 December 20, 2016 1 2 Mitchell asked if there was an issue regarding access with the preliminary plat. 3 4 Finke stated that was discussed because a property has access from both streets. He 5 provided additional details on the shared access point for two of the lots to Hamel Road. 6 7 Cousineau asked if an animal structure is going to be built and whether a variance would 8 be needed. 9 10 Finke provided information on the setbacks that are required for an animal structure 11 compared to the available lot sizes. He stated that the condition was simply placed in 12 the agreement stating that the applicant acknowledges that they are requesting the lot 13 split and know of the requirements for an animal structure and therefore cannot claim 14 practical difficulty in a variance request in the future. 15 16 1. Resolution No. 2016-106 Granting Final Plat Approval for Capital Knoll 17 Moved by Anderson, seconded by Pederson, to adopt Resolution No. 2016-106 18 Granting Final Plat Approval for Capital Knoll, changing Condition Seven to change the 19 allowed timeframe to be extended to 365 days.

Motion passed 4-0 (Pederson recused). 34 35 Pederson rejoined the Council. 36 37 X. CITY ADMINISTRATOR REPORT (7:28 p.m.) 38 39 A. Upcoming Meeting 40 Johnson stated that staff has been in contact with Hennepin County and MnDOT in 41 attempt to setup a public meeting regarding County Roads 116, 19, and 101 and their 42 speed and traffic issues. He stated that a meeting has been set for January 25th at 6:30 43 p.m. at City Hall. 44 45 B. Police Radio Update 46 Johnson stated that Belland attended a meeting at Hennepin County today where police 47 radios were discussed. He noted that there may be a good opportunity to upgrade the 48 radios in 2017, earlier than the scheduled CIP date of 2019. 49 50 Belland stated that it was late notice for the meeting but Motorola provided a 51 presentation where they offered to lower the price of the radios by approximately $900 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 5 December 20, 2016 1 per radio. He noted that Hennepin County has about 8,000 radios on their system. He 2 stated that the end of life for the Medina police radios is fast approaching. He stated that 3 the replacement for the equipment is slated for 2019 in the CIP and noted that the total 4 amount for the replacement would be $93,000. He stated that previously the department 5 leased the equipment through Hennepin County but then the City decided to save funds 6 and purchase the equipment outright. He stated that the department would have the 7 ability to once again lease the equipment from Hennepin County, at a rate of $15,000 8 per year for seven years, which would then be included in the Hennepin County package 9 of services. He reported that there is $146,000 available in the DWI fund and therefore 10 the City could choose to purchase the equipment outright. He stated that the lease 11 option would include the newest model radios with the ability to remotely download 12 software. 13 14 Anderson asked if the equipment would come with training. 15 16 Belland stated that training would be included and the radios would also include 17 encryption. He stated that it sounds as if Hennepin County is going to move forward on 18 this in 2017 and if the other agencies use the encrypted lines, Medina police would not 19 be able to access those encrypted lines. 20 21 Scherer stated that he would accept some of the old radios for use in public works. 22 23 Cousineau asked when the decision would need to be made. 24 25 Belland stated that he received a rough quote and would have until the end of the year 26 to make a decision. 27 28 Cousineau asked if the company would be offering the deal annually. 29 30 Belland stated that this is the first time that he has heard of a deal of this nature. He 31 stated that the company has stated that as long as the department is working with the 32 company it will be allowed to continue to the first Council meeting in January. He noted 33 that the funds used for the purchase or lease would be through the DWI fund and 34 therefore would not be taxpayer money. He stated that the lifespan of the radios would 35 be 20 years and after seven years of the lease the equipment would be paid in full. 36 37 Pederson suggested that the item be run by Finance Director Barnhart to determine if 38 the better option would be to purchase or lease the equipment. He stated that his fear is 39 that Hennepin County would change their equipment again during the course of the 40 lease and therefore perhaps leasing would be better. 41 42 Belland stated that Hennepin County has a large number of radios and therefore this is a 43 big expense for them and there would be no incentive to switching equipment. 44 45 Xl. MAYOR & CITY COUNCIL REPORTS (7:39 p.m.) 46 Martin stated that she and Anderson attended the Public Hearing of the Planning 47 Commission for the review of the Comprehensive Plan and the changes suggested were 48 minimal and therefore the plan will come before the Council in relatively the same 49 manner it was presented from the Steering Committee. She stated that she also 50 attended the opening of the Medina Townhomes, which was a lovely event. She stated Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 6 December 20, 2016 1 that a lot of credit was given to the City for its commitment to the project. She stated that 2 Dominium did a great job of thanking all the partners in the project. 3 4 XII.

Dated: January 3, 2017. Bob Mitchell, Mayor ATTEST: Jodi M. Gallup, City Clerk The motion for the adoption of the foregoing resolution was duly seconded by member and upon vote being taken thereon, the following voted in favor thereof: and the following voted against same: Whereupon said resolution was declared duly passed and adopted. Resolution No. 2017- January 3, 2017 Contract No: A166409 RESIDENTIAL RECYCLING GRANT AGREEMENT This Agreement is between the COUNTY OF HENNEPIN, STATE OF MINNESOTA, A-2300 Government Center, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55487 ("COUNTY"), on behalf of the Hennepin County Environment and Energy Department, 701 Fourth Avenue South, Minneapolis, Minnesota 55415-1600 ("DEPARTMENT") and the CITY OF MEDINA, 2052 County Road 24, Hamel, Minnesota 55340 ("CITY"). The parties agree as follows: 1. TERM AND COST OF THE AGREEMENT This Agreement shall commence upon execution and expire on December 31, 2020, unless cancelled or terminated earlier in accordance with the provisions herein. Annual grant payments shall be calculated as set forth in Section 3. 2. SERVICES TO BE PROVIDED The CITY shall apply for annual grant funds and operate its Recycling Program as more fully described in Attachment A, the Residential Recycling Funding Policy. 3. ALLOCATION OF FUNDS The COUNTY will distribute to Hennepin County municipalities 100% of SCORE funds that the COUNTY receives from the state. SCORE funds will be dedicated to two different purposes: 1) curbside recycling and 2) curbside organics recycling. SCORE funds are based on revenue received by the State of Minnesota from the solid waste management (SWM) tax on garbage services. SCORE funds are subject to change based on the SWM tax revenue received by the state and funds allocated by the legislature. Funds distributed to municipalities for the current calendar year will be based on SCORE funds received by the COUNTY in the state's corresponding fiscal year. Recycling The following formula will be utilized to determine a CITY'S recycling SCORE grant each year. Percent of SCORE funds allocated to curbside recycling: 2017 80% 2018 70% 2019 60% 2020 50% 1 CITY recycling grant calculation: Number of households with curbside recycling in city Total number of households with curbside recycling in county Total SCORE Recycling grant x funds available = amount available for recycling to the city Eligible residential households are defined as single family through eight-plex residential buildings or other residential buildings where each housing unit sets out its own recycling container for curbside collection. The number of eligible households will be determined by counting the number of eligible households on January 1 of each funding year. The CITY will report the number in its application for funding. The COUNTY will make two equal payments to the CITY. One payment will be made after the COUNTY receives the application, which consists of the web -based report and the planning document. A second payment will be made after basic program requirements, education and outreach requirements, and recycling performance have been confirmed and approved. If the CITY meets the COUNTY requirements, both payments will be made during the same calendar year. Funding will be withheld until the CITY meets the requirements of the Residential Recycling Funding Policy. Organics The following formula will be utilized to determine a CITY'S organics recycling SCORE grant each year. Percent of SCORE funds allocated to curbside organics recycling: 2017 20% 2018 30% 2019 40% 2020 50% CITY organics recycling grant calculation: Number of households with curbside organics in city Total number of households with curbside organics in county Total SCORE Organics grant x funds available = amount available for organics to the city 2 If the formula above results in the CITY receiving a grant where the dollar amount per participating household is greater than $25 per year, then a cap will apply. The funding cap per participating household is $25 per year. The most the COUNTY will grant a CITY is $25 per participating household per year. If funds are left over because of the cap, those funds will carry over into the following year's SCORE funds. Eligible residential households are defined as single family through eight-plex residential buildings or other residential buildings where the household is signed up for organics service and the household sets out its own container with organics for curbside collection. The number of eligible households will be determined by counting the number of eligible households on September 1 of each funding year. The CITY will report the number in the application for funding. The COUNTY will make one organics grant payment to the CITY each year. The payment will be made after the COUNTY receives the application and confirms that the CITY meets the requirements of the Residential Recycling Funding Policy. 4. PROFESSIONAL CREDENTIALS INTENTIONALLY OMITTED 5. INDEPENDENT CITY CITY shall select the means, method, and manner of performing the services.

It is the sole responsibility of CITY to determine the need for and to procure additional insurance which may be needed in connection with this Agreement. Upon written request, CITY shall promptly submit copies of insurance policies to COUNTY. CITY shall not commence work until it has obtained required insurance and filed with COUNTY a properly executed Certificate of Insurance establishing compliance.

Policy Description A. Background The Hennepin County Board of Commissioners has determined that curbside collection of recyclables and organics from Hennepin County residents is an effective strategy to reduce reliance on landfills, prevent pollution, conserve natural resources and energy, improve public health, support the economy, and reduce greenhouse gases. Therefore, the county adopted the goals established in State Statute and by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) in its Metropolitan Solid Waste Management Policy Plan and developed a Residential Recycling Funding Policy to help reach a 75% recycling rate by 2030. The county will distribute all Select Committee on Recycling and the Environment (SCORE) funds received from the state to cities for curbside collection of residential recyclables and organics. If cities form a joint powers organization responsible for managing a comprehensive recycling and waste education system for the residents of those cities, the county will distribute recycling and organics grants to that organization. Cities are expected to fulfill the conditions of the policy. B. Term of the Policy Hennepin County is committed to implement this policy and continue distributing all SCORE funds received from the state for the purpose of funding curbside residential recycling and organics programs from January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2020. The county may revise this policy if it determines changes are needed to assure compliance with state law and MPCA goals established for metropolitan counties. In the event that SCORE funds are eliminated from the state budget or significantly reduced, the county will consult with municipalities at that time and develop a subsequent recommendation to the board on continuation of this policy and future funding of curbside recycling and organics programs. C. Grant Agreements Each municipality seeking funding under the terms of the Residential Recycling Funding Policy must enter into a recycling grant agreement with the county for a term concurrent with the expiration of this policy, December 31, 2020. The grant agreement must be accompanied by a resolution authorizing the city to enter into such an agreement. D. Fund Distribution The county will distribute to Hennepin County municipalities 100% of SCORE funds that the county receives from the state. SCORE funds will be dedicated to two different purposes: 1) 1 curbside recycling and 2) curbside organics recycling. SCORE funds are based on revenue received by the State of Minnesota from the solid waste management (SWM) tax on garbage services. SCORE funds are subject to change based on the SWM tax revenue received by the state and funds allocated by the legislature. Funds distributed to municipalities for the current calendar year will be based on SCORE funds received by the county in the state's corresponding fiscal year. II. Recycling A. Allocation of Funds The following formula will be utilized to determine a city's recycling SCORE grant each year. Percent of SCORE funds allocated to curbside recycling: 2017 80% 2018 70% 2019 60% 2020 50% City recycling grant calculation: Number of households with curbside recycling in city Total number of households with curbside recycling in county Total SCORE Recycling grant x Funds available - amount available for recycling to the city Eligible residential households are defined as single family through eight-plex residential buildings or other residential buildings where each housing unit sets out its own recycling container for curbside collection. The number of eligible households will be determined by counting the number of eligible households on January 1 of each funding year. The city will report the number in its application for funding. B. Application for Funding Each municipality must complete an annual grant application by February 15 to receive funding for that year. The application consists of a web -based report and a planning document provided by the county. The web -based report asks for contract, program, tonnage, and financial 2 information. The participation rate for the curbside recycling program must also be included in the web -based report. The municipality must calculate its participation rate during the month of October. The methodology for measuring participation must be provided to the county upon request. The planning document asks for a description of activities the city will implement to increase recycling and make progress toward county objectives. C. Use of Funds The following requirements apply to the use of recycling funds: 1. All grant funds accepted from the county must be used for waste reduction and recycling capital and operating expenses in the year granted. The county will not reimburse any funds in excess of actual expenses. 2. A municipality or joint powers organization may not charge its residents through property tax, utility fees, or any other method for the portion of its recycling program costs that are funded by county grant funds. 3. Municipalities must establish a separate accounting mechanism, such as a project number, activity number, or fund that will separate recycling revenues and expenditures from other municipal activities, including solid waste and yard waste activities. 4. Recycling and waste reduction activities, revenues, and expenditures are subject to audit. 5. Municipalities that do not contract for curbside recycling services will receive grant funds provided that at least 90% of the grant funds are credited back to residents and the city meets all minimum program requirements. The additional 10% may be used for municipal administrative and promotional expenses. D. City Requirements 1. Materials Accepted At a minimum, the following materials must be collected curbside: • Metal food and beverage cans; • Glass food and beverage containers; • Cardboard boxes; • Newspaper and inserts; • Mail, office and school papers; 3 " Cereal, cracker, pasta, cake mix, shoe, gift, and electronics boxes; " Boxes from toothpaste, medications and other toiletries; " Magazines and catalogs; " Aseptic and gable -topped containers; and " Plastic bottles and containers, #1 Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET, PETE), #2 High Density Polyethylene (HDPE), #4  Low Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and #5  Polypropylene (PP) plastic bottles, except those that previously contained hazardous materials or motor oil. The county may add materials to this list and require municipalities to begin collection within one year of receiving notification from the county. Municipalities will notify the county if materials not found on this list will be collected. 2. Education and Outreach The partnership between the county and municipalities has been highly effective in educating residents and motivating behavior change. In order to continue this partnership and increase these efforts, program activities of municipalities must be coordinated with county and regional efforts. Municipalities must adhere to the following requirements: a. Use county terminology when describing recycling guidelines, including the description of materials accepted and not accepted, preparation guidelines, and promotional materials; b. Use images provided by the county or the Solid Waste Management Coordinating Board (SWMCB) if using images of recyclables; c. Provide recycling information on the city's website, including materials accepted and not accepted, a recycling calendar, and links to county resources; d. Mail a recycling guide to residents each year using a template developed jointly with the county. The county will design and print the guide. If a municipality does not use the template produced by the county, the municipality may develop its own guide at the municipality's expense, but it must be approved by the county. If the municipality relies on the hauler to provide the recycling guide, this guide requires approval by the county. e. Complete two educational activities from a menu of options developed by the county. 4 Any print material that communicates residential recycling guidelines that were not provided by the county template will require county approval. This does not apply to waste reduction and reuse, articles on recycling that do not include guidelines, or social media posts. The county will respond within five business days to any communication piece submitted. 3. Recycling Performance On an annual basis, municipal recycling programs must demonstrate that a reasonable effort has been made to maintain and increase the pounds of recyclables per household collected from their residential recycling programs. If a municipality does not demonstrate measureable progress, a recycling improvement plan must be submitted by the municipality within 90 days of being notified by the county. The recycling improvement plan must be negotiated with the county and specify the efforts that will be undertaken by the municipality to improve its recycling program to yield the results necessary to achieve county objectives. In cooperation with the county, the municipality may be required to participate in waste and recycling sorts to identify recovery levels of various recyclables in its community. Based on the results of the study, the county and municipality will collaborate to increase the recovery of select recyclable materials being discarded in significant quantities. E. Grant Payments The county will make two equal payments to the municipality. One payment will be made after the county receives the application, which consists of the web -based report and the planning document. A second payment will be made after basic program requirements, education and outreach requirements, and recycling performance have been confirmed and approved. If the municipality meets the county requirements, both payments will be made during the same calendar year. Funding will be withheld until the municipality meets the requirements of this policy. III. Organics Recycling A. Allocation of Funds The following formula will be utilized to determine a city's organics recycling SCORE grant each year: 5 Percent of SCORE funds allocated to curbside organics recycling: 2017 20% 2018 30% 2019 40% 2020 50% City organics recycling grant calculation: Number of households with curbside organics in city Total number of households with curbside organics in county Total SCORE Organics grant x funds available for = amount available organics to the city If the formula above results in cities receiving grants where the dollar amount per participating household is greater than $25 per year, then a cap will apply. The funding cap per participating household is $25 per year. The most the county will grant a city is $25 per participating household per year. If funds are left over because of the cap, those funds will carry over into the following year's SCORE funds. Eligible residential households are defined as single family through eight-plex residential buildings or other residential buildings where the household is signed up for organics service and the household sets out its own container with organics for curbside collection. The number of eligible households will be determined by counting the number of eligible households on September 1 of each funding year. The city will report the number in the application for funding. B. Application for Funds Each municipality must complete an annual application provided by the county by September 1 to receive funding. As a part of the application, a city must submit the number of households signed up for and receiving curbside organics service. C. Use of Funds The grant funds may be used for program expenses, including the following: • Discount to new customers • Discount to existing customers • Referral incentives • City contract costs 6 " Education and outreach " Compostable bags " Kitchen containers " Carts Program administration is not an eligible expense. Yard waste expenses are not eligible. If organics are co -collected with other waste, the organics expenses must be tracked separately. If a city passes funds through to a hauler, 100% of those funds must be credited to residents' bills. In addition, the following requirements apply: " All grant funds must be used during the term of the agreement. Funds not spent must be returned to the county. " Funds must be expended on eligible activities per Minnesota State Statute 115A.557. " A municipality or joint powers organization may not charge its residents through property tax, utility fees, or any other method for the portion of its organics program costs that are funded by county grant funds. " Municipalities must account for organics expenditures separately upon request by the county. Expenditures are subject to audit. D. Education and Outreach Requirements The partnership between the county and municipalities has been highly effective in educating residents and motivating behavior change. In order to continue this partnership and increase these efforts, program activities of municipalities must be coordinated with county and regional efforts. The following requirements apply: 1. Use county terminology when describing organics recycling guidelines, including the description of materials accepted and not accepted, preparation guidelines, and promotional materials; 2. Use images provided by the county or the SWMCB if using images of organic materials; 3. Provide organics recycling information on the city's website, including material accepted and not accepted, service options, and links to county resources; 4. Work with the county to develop promotional resources to increase participation. 7 E.

Following these concurrent meetings, a draft of the Comprehensive Plan was released for public feedback on the City's website and discussed in the City newsletter and at Celebration Day. Open Houses were also held at the end of October. The Steering Committee met to review the feedback, made final edits to the Plan, and recommended that the Plan be presented to the Planning Commission for a public hearing. The primary change from the August draft of the Plan which was previously reviewed by the Planning Commission was to shift approximately 30 net acres of Low Density Residential to the property immediately west of the Wealshire development, consistent with the concept plan from the Excelsior Group which was reviewed by the Planning Commission in November. An equal amount of acreage was changed from Low Density to Rural Residential to the northeast of Wealshire (east of Mohawk Drive, adjacent to Katrinka Road). The feedback on the draft plan at the Open Houses, from the mySidewalk page and otherwise submitted to the City is attached for reference. After the Open Houses, three additional letters have been received, which are the first attachment to this report, and are intended to be made part of the Public Hearing. As a reminder, the City technically has until the end of 2018 to submit its Comprehensive Plan update to the Metropolitan Council. The City has, to date, made it a goal to submit early. However, that means we certainly have time to continue working on the draft if the Committee wishes to do so. The draft Comprehensive Plan does not yet include sewer and water plans. Because the land use plan has been shifting over the past few months, staff wanted to delay the modeling and other 2020-2040 Comprehensive Plan Page 1 of 5 January 3, 2017 City Council Meeting technical work that goes into these plans until things settle. A high level "implications" summary is provided for the time being. Staff intends to present the full plans, along with feedback from jurisdictions (school districts, watersheds, neighboring cities, state agencies, etc.) after the six month jurisdictional review timeframe is completed. Public Feedback from Open Houses Approximately 50 people attended the open houses. The open houses included opportunities for "dot activities" where people could place a green dot on things they were in favor of and red dots on things they were not in favor of. Staff has transferred these dots to the attached maps. Attendees (and everyone who received the mailer and also the newsletter) were also encouraged to take part in the discussion on mySidewalk or to provide written comments. One person has provided a comment on mySidewalk ("Looks good"). Staff has also attached the written comments received. Steering Committee members were also present at the open houses and discussed the plans with attendees. Staff tried to circle back with members after each Open House to discuss their concerns. The main discussion points touched on by numerous attendees appeared to be: 1) Most attendees appeared to support the reduced residential growth planned. 2) Property owners north of Chippewa Road and west of Mohawk Drive, adjacent to The Wealshire project, urged that their properties be guided for Low Density Residential development, consistent with the current plan (NOTE: Some of this property was added to the Low Density Residential land use by the Steering Committee after the Open Houses). 3) Strong interest in improved pedestrian connectivity across Highway 55. Numerous attendees advocated a pedestrian bridge over Highway 55 or other measures. 4) Concern related to increased traffic along County Road 116. 5) Concern related to potential water tower in the Fields of Medina Park. Summary of Plan Planning Commissioners have been involved throughout the last 15 months with the process and likely recognize the difficulty in succinctly summarizing the Comprehensive Plan. The attached PowerPoint attempts to describe the process and the "big picture" aspects of the Draft plan. Staff intends to present this prior to the Public Hearing. Chapter 1, the Introduction of the Plan, also describes the organization of the Plan. Following is a description and highlights of the Chapters. Vision and Goals The Vision and Community Goals are contained in Chapter 2. The goals speak to maintaining quality of life through protection of natural resources, open space, and rural character. Community Background The Community Background chapter mainly contains demographic information which affects the Plan. Page 3-2 describes the forecasted residential growth in the City, 1100 additional 2020-2040 Comprehensive Plan Page 2 of 5 January 3, 2017 City Council Meeting households between 2020 and 2040. Staff has calculated that the City would need to plan for 951 households under the plan, because approximately 1491ots have already been approved for development. Housing and Neighborhoods The Housing Chapter provides information on the existing housing stock within the City. The Metropolitan Council requirement that the City plan for a minimum of 253 housing units at higher density is also contained within this chapter. Requiring higher density housing is a strategy by the Met Council to support the construction of homes at more affordable price points. Land Use and Growth The Land Use chapter most often comes to mind when someone thinks about the Comprehensive Plan. In addition to guiding growth and development in the City, the chapter also establishes objectives for the land uses. These objectives will provide guidance when the City enacts zoning regulations to implement the Plan. The Land Use plan is contained on Map 5-2 and the Staging Plan on Map 5-3. These plans guide the following amounts of property for development in the next 20 years: • 171 net acres of Low Density Residential (2 units/acre) • 21 net acres Medium Density Residential (5-7 units/acre) • 14 net acres High Density Residential (12-15 units/acre) • 95 net acres Mixed Residential (3.5-4 units/acre; 1 unit/acre required High Density) • 53 net acres Commercial • 257 net acres Business Parks, Trails, and Open Spaces This Chapter describes the existing park, trail, and open space system and planned expansion. Planned expansion includes 3 parks in order to provide an active park within % mile of all new residential development. The plan also includes 22 miles of paved trails (9 exist today) and 11 miles of turf trails. Implementation This Chapter describes actions which the City needs to take in order to be consistent with the Plan. Transportation Plan The transportation plan describes the existing local system but also how the City fits into the broader county and regional networks. No regional transportation capacity expansions are planned for next 20 years on Highway 55 or Highway 12. The plan identifies the need for intersection improvements at various County Roads in the City. The City will work with Hennepin County to incorporate these into their plans. In terms of investments on City streets, the plan identifies the following: • Potential extension of Chippewa Road from Mohawk Drive to Arrowhead Drive. • Improvement to Hackamore Road to add capacity as a result of the Reserve of Medina but also development in communities to the north. 2020-2040 Comprehensive Plan Page 3 of 5 January 3, 2017 City Council Meeting " Improvement to Brockton Lane to add capacity as a result of development in Plymouth and Medina. " Study of the Sioux Drive/Hamel Road intersection to improve safety and operation. Sewer/Water Plans As noted previously, these chapters are not yet completed because substantial modeling and other technical work needs to be completed after the Land Use map is complete. A high-level summary is included in map form. The plans identify the following capital investments necessary in order to support the growth and development identified in the plan. The cost of these improvements would be funded through connection fees upon development: " $3,000,000  New Water Tower (Fields of Medina Park currently prospective location) " $1,600,000  Water Treatment Plant expansion " $450,000  Sanitary Sewer lift station at Willow Drive and Chippewa Road " $200,000  Upsize Sanitary Sewer Pipe at Hunter Drive and Hamel Road " $1,700,000  Water Tower to support Future Development Area near Loretto (after 2040) Surface Water Management Plan The Surface Water Management Plan (SWMP) describes how the City will address and improve stormwater within the community. In addition to establishing objectives how development will treat stormwater, the plan also describes how the City will attempt to address the various mandates placed upon it to improve water quality through Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) allocations. Planning Commission Recommendation The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the Comprehensive Plan at their December 13, 2016 meeting. Three people spoke at the public hearing, and their comments are included in the attached Planning Commission minutes. One speaker spoke in favor of additional development in the area south of Hamel which could energize the Uptown Hamel area, rather than pushing development further west on Highway 55. One speaker had previously provided two letters on behalf of Dellcroft Farms and expanded on their comments. One speaker represented property owners east of Arrowhead Drive and north of Meander, speaking in support of the Plan. Following the public hearing, the Commission discussed all of the chapters of the draft Plan. The Commission discussed the Land Use plan following the comments from the public hearing and the open house and recommending approval as is. The Commission provided a series of recommended changes to the text of the various chapters, none of which staff considered to change the primary policy direction of the document. Following the discussion and the recommended changes, the Planning Commission unanimously recommended approval of the 2020-2040 Comprehensive Plan update. 2020-2040 Comprehensive Plan Page 4 of 5 January 3, 2017 City Council Meeting Potential Action Staff had originally intended to present the Comprehensive Plan at the January 17 Council meeting and announced this intent at the December 13 Public Hearing. As a result, staff recommends that the Council wait to finalize discussion until January 17. In the meantime, the City Council can review the Plan and direct staff to make any changes. After completing its review, the Council can direct staff to route the Plan to affected jurisdictions for their review and comment. The Metropolitan Council requires the City to allow six months for the affected jurisdictions to comment. Staff will collect all comments and present to the City Council this summer for consideration. Only after the jurisdictional review is complete will the City Council be able to approve of the Plan.

Public Hearing — City of Medina Comprehensive Plan — Decennial Update Finke stated that he would attempt to cover the highlights as there is a lot of detail and the Commission has reviewed most of the document in previous meetings. He stated that the process to update the plan was started one year ago, and reviewed the purpose of the Comprehensive Plan. He noted that there have been eight community meetings throughout the process to obtain input from the community in addition to the work of the Steering Committee, Planning Commission and the use of the online forum. He explained how the guides from the Metropolitan Council are used, noting that there was a reduction to the Met Council system statements and the City therefore was able to reduce their plans for development appropriately. He reviewed the vision statement which was used to develop the community goals and specific objectives within the plan. He explained that growth is planned in conjunction with infrastructure to ensure that the growth does not outpace the infrastructure within the City. He stated that one major change to the plan was the reduction in planned residential development compared to the previous plan in order to meet the minimum requirements of the Met Council. He noted that there was also some delay for the development of residential properties. He identified an area that had previously been planned for commercial but is now proposed to be planned as high density residential. He highlighted the specific areas within the City that have a changed proposed land use as a result of the updating of the plan. He suggested that discussion focus on the properties with proposed land use changes from what exists today. He displayed the staging and growth map which identifies when properties could be developed under the Comprehensive Plan. He noted that the business and commercial properties are not staged for development and could be developed as requests are received. He noted that the parks and trails chapter of the plan is highly impacted by the land use map. He noted that the implementation chapter addresses the things the City would need to do in order to come into line with the Comprehensive Plan, noting that once adopted the City has nine months to be in compliance with the plan. He noted that there are relatively low needs in terms of the sanitary sewer and identified the needs related to water. He provided highlights of the transportation chapter of the plan, noting that the City does not have control over the County and State roadways and reviewing proposed improvements. Albers asked if the Met Council has provided a transit plan for any cities outside of the light rail. Finke stated that although the Met Council does provide plans for some cities, they have not provided anything for Medina. He explained that Medina is at a disadvantage as some neighboring communities provide their own independent systems. He stated that if the City were interested it would make most sense to work with one of the neighboring communities to expand their transit system. He stated that this is the formal public hearing for the draft plan, although there have been many opportunities to provide feedback prior to tonight. He explained the submittal process that would be followed moving forward, which includes allowances for the necessary comment periods. Chairperson Reid opened the public hearing at 7:38 p.m. Greg Hoglund, 19220 Hackamore Road, stated that he also owns several properties in Medina. He stated that he lives next to a major development being done by Lennar in Corcoran and noted some plans for future development from Lennar that is in both cities and is expected in 2017. Finke stated that he was unsure that would occur in 2017 but acknowledged that the development would take place in the next few years. Mr. Hoglund referenced the staging plan, noting that he is a big fan of Medina and specifically Hamel which is an unbelievably hidden gem and asset of the community He stated that his 1 Excerpt of DRAFT Planning Commission Meeting Minutes from Tuesday, December 13, 2016 concern is that everything is being pushed along Highway 55 and he has not seen anything much being done in Hamel. He stated that there are some forces outside of the City and asked that the City think about spreading things out a bit to ensure Hamel does not get lost in the planning effort. Andy Jacobson, representing Dellcroft Farms, acknowledged that they are a bit late with their participation in the plan as their concern came with the AutoMotorPlex. He stated that they will find themselves across the road from a site with 63 percent site coverage. He stated that the concern is with the transition between residential and commercial. He asked that the City consider the 20.5 eastern most acres of the Dellcroft Farms property to be guided to low density residential to help create some transition between the AutoMotorPlex and rural residential, similar to what was done near the Wealshire property. Tim Whiten, representing five property owners east of Arrowhead Drive, stated that throughout this process their properties have been changed from medium to low density with delayed staging. He stated that the property owners accept the changes but just want to ensure that the guiding is not changed further. Chairperson V. Reid closed the public hearing at 7:50 p.m. Chairperson V. Reid noted that there have been many discussions prior to tonight's meeting and noted that while changes can be made there would need to be a balance to ensure that the desired outcome is still reached. She suggested that grammatical changes be provided to staff outside of the meeting. She noted on page 13, objective three, and noted that the Steering Committee discussed this item and confirmed the consensus of the Commission that the guidelines be developed. She noted that the guidelines would be developed through a special committee in the future. Finke stated that there is a lot of detail within the plan and noted that there are some pretty significant changes to the land use within Hamel. He noted that within the existing plan there is a requirement for seven to 45 units per acre across the Uptown Hamel land use. He stated that within the draft plan a fair amount of flexibility was provided lowering the minimum density and maximum density to range of four to 15 units per acre, with flexibility to go up to 20 units per acre with special conditions. He noted that is a significant change that would still allow for fairly dense residential development but also provide flexibility to create a smaller development. Murrin agreed that the lower density would be more appropriate. R. Reid stated that perhaps a task force should be created for Uptown Hamel as there have been a number of applications that have come forward that have not come to fruition. Albers noted that one of the applications was trying to gain additional funding. Finke provided additional clarification on the mixed -use land use which is a relatively low density housing land use, between 3.4 to four unit per acre. He explained the requirement that one third to one quarter of the units be a higher density housing product, such as an apartment building or tight townhome, while the remainder of the site could be single family development. He stated that land use helps the City achieve the minimum of 253 higher density housing units without identifying a specific property for a higher density land use. Chairperson V. Reid noted that months have been spent on the proposed land uses and asked for the input of the Commission. 2 Excerpt of DRAFT Planning Commission Meeting Minutes from Tuesday, December 13, 2016 White commented that the Steering Committee has done a great job on the land use as designated and noted that if any changes were made, there would need to be changes made in another area to balance the totals. She confirmed the consensus of the Commission to accept the land use section as proposed. Chairperson V. Reid referenced a letter that was received in regard to affordable housing from Housing Justice, which expressed concerns. R. Reid noted that the letter was dated December 1 st, although the latest version of the plan was dated December 6th Finke replied that the plan did not change significantly before or after the letter. He stated that within the system statements from the Met Council, which guides cities, there are minimum requirements that are laid out explicitly. He stated that the minimum requirement is that the allocation of expected affordable housing be identified for the next 20 years and that the City plans for that within the land use and the programs that could be used. He stated that staff believes that the minimum requirements have been met. Barry stated that it appears the letter wants more put into the plan although that is not required. He did not see a value in changing the plan to be more specific to meet the concerns of the letter. R. Reid noted that there are no developers proposing to construct this type of housing in Medina and therefore the City can respond to requests that come in but would not need to be more explicit with details. Murrin stated that she talked to Finke earlier about the letter, noting that the organization is more geared for advocacy. She stated that the City has met the requirements of the Met Council and therefore does not have to meet the requests of the letter. Rengel stated that she believes the plan has an adequate balance of land uses and affordable housing. Albers noted that the City planned accordingly to identify where affordable housing would be a good fit based on the available transportation. Kathy Martin, Chair of the Steering Committee, stated that the City does not have a legal obligation to subsidize affordable housing. She stated that while some on the Committee did not support additional workforce housing, others believe that workforce housing provides a benefit to the community. She hoped that in the next few years there would be leadership in the City to help bring that into fruition and provide more workforce housing to the City. Barry referenced 4.3, noting that AMI is addressed in two sections and asked the percentages that are reflected and which AMI is used in the calculations. Finke replied that the AMI should correspond to the table and noted that he would make the necessary changes. He noted that additional information was added to the school districts as the school district has an impact on growth pressures and vice versa. Finke noted that the Park Commission took the lead on the park and trail chapter. Chairperson V. Reid stated that she is happy to see the hoped parks designation and referenced the 10 acre Fields of Medina park that she believed was going to be larger and provide a connection to Foxberry. 3 Excerpt of DRAFT Planning Commission Meeting Minutes from Tuesday, December 13, 2016 Finke noted that if that is a continued objective it should be called out and noted that perhaps the Park Commission should review that. Chairperson V. Reid noted that technically you would have to drive and if connectivity is a goal, there should be a trail connection for walkers. White stated that she believed that the Park Commission was waiting for another parcel to develop before expanding that park. She stated that there was some concern from residents of Foxberry that did not want to be connected. She acknowledged that now that the park is developed opinions may have changed. Finke stated that would be a good discussion point as if more land is desired in that area, that should be called out in the plan. Chairperson V. Reid noted that there were also comments regarding connection to Bridgewater. She confirmed the consensus of the Commission to recommend that the additional comments be added in regard to the Fields of Medina Park. Murrin referenced the moving of Highway 101 North and asked what would happen to the existing 101 and whether Peony would connect back up to 101. Finke replied that Peony would merge further north. He stated that the City is opposing that plan from the County. Murrin asked the advantage to keeping it the way it is now. She asked the odds of Medina winning the opposition. Finke replied that the County maintains the roadway and noted that the City did win the opposition in the previous attempt. Chairperson V. Reid referenced language regarding bicycle transportation and asked what would be considered regional destinations. Finke provided examples of major employment centers, schools and parks. Chairperson V. Reid asked for more information on the non -motorized transportation plan. Finke explained that the plan makes more sense when you zoom out as it is a regional plan that provides connections, such as Baker Park, and a broader system in the neighboring communities. He stated that the region has not identified assets to the north and east. He explained that the City would certainly have its own trails in those areas but those would not necessarily connect directly to the regional plan. He provided additional options for transit, noting that although not identified in the plan, the City could work with Plymouth to opt into their transit service. He noted that an additional taxing line item would be included for the transportation system. Kathy Martin noted that there was a survey done of residents and was surprised at the number of residents opposed public transit within the City. She stated that the Commission should be mindful of that opposition if they choose to recommend adding such statement. Chairperson V. Reid provided an example of a handicap resident that is not able to get bus service through Metro Mobility as the City is not a member. She believed that might be an option to explore for senior and handicap bus service. She stated that perhaps a statement be added that the City will explore options for seniors and disabled transportation options. 4 Excerpt of DRAFT Planning Commission Meeting Minutes from Tuesday, December 13, 2016 White asked if the Comprehensive Plan would be the right place for that statement or whether staff should just look at options. It was the consensus of the Commission to amend the statement included in the transportation plan to add a comment regarding transportation for the disabled and seniors. Motion by White, seconded by Albers, to recommend approval the draft Comprehensive Plan as amended. Motion carries unanimously. 5 17 November 2016 CITY OF MEDINA PLANNING COMMISSION 20152 County Road 24 Medina, MN 55340 STEERING COMMIII'I E 20152 County Road 24 Medina, MN 55340 RE: Del!croft Farms, 1722 Hamel Rd., Medina, Minnesota Dear Planning Commission and Steering Committee Members: ON Andrew N. .Jacobson Direct Dial: (612) 672-8333 Direct Fax: (612) 642-8333 andy.jacobson@masion.com As you know our firm represents Dellcroft Farms, LLC ("Dellcroft Farms"). Dellcroft Farms owns approximately 65.88 acres of land north of Hamel Road and west of Arrowhead Drive (the "North Parcel") in Medina. The North Parcel is currently zoned rural residential. As part of the pending revisions to the Comprehensive Plan, Dellcroft Farms believes the Planning Commission should consider guiding the North Parcel (or an appropriate portion of the North Parcel adjacent to Arrowhead Drive) from the current rural residential designation to low density residential (R-1). Leaving the North Parcel zoned as rural residential when it is set between business and industrial zoning to the north and east creates an abrupt transition in the zoning districts. Dellcroft Farms believes that low density residential (R-I) makes more sense for the zoning transition from the adjacent industrial/business zoned areas. Furthermore, considering that the parcel immediately east of Dellcroft Farms across Arrowhead Drive will have approximately 63% hardcover after development is complete, guiding this portion of Dellcroft Farms for low density residential (R-1), would create a more logical and appropriate transition for the abutting zoning districts along Arrowhead Drive and provide insulation between the areas zoned industrial/business and those zoned rural residential. Finally, Dellcroft Farms' concern with the abrupt transition of zoning are similar to the concerns the Excelsior Group made to the Planning Commission on November 9, 2016 in connection with the development of the Wealshire Group's memory care facility on property adjacent to the Excelsior Group's land. Specifically, Delleroft Farms is concerned that the abrupt transition from business and industrial use with dense hardcover on the neighboring property will decrease the value of the North Parcel if it is not allowed to develop its property for low density residential use. Dellcroft Farms appreciates your consideration of its concerns. cc: Thomas Borman, Dellcroft Farms Jeanne Corwin, Dellcroft Farms Mayor Bob Mitchell Dusty Finke, City Planner Sincerely,.

Jacobson Direct Dial: (612) 672-8333 Direct Fax: (612) 642-8333 andyjacobson@masion.com As you know our firm represents Dellcroft Farms, LLC ("Dellcroft Farms"). Dellcroft Farms owns approximately 65.88 acres of land north of Hamel Road and west of Arrowhead Drive (the "North Parcel") in Medina along with approximately 90 acres of land directly south of the North Parcel on the other side of Hamel Road (the "South Parcel"). The North Parcel and South Parcel are each currently zoned rural residential. We request that, in connection with the pending revisions to the Comprehensive Plan, the Planning Commission change the guiding applicable to the easterly 20.5 acres of the North Parcel to low density residential (R-1) in order to create a buffer between the proposed AutoMotorPlex project and the rural residential zoning district. Attached are maps that illustrate the two parcels along with the proposed area for guiding the modification. Please note that Dellcroft Farms is not requesting any change to the guiding of any other portion of the North Parcel or South Parcel. With what appears to be the imminent approval of the AutoMotorPlex project, there will be an abrupt transition of zoning on Hamel Road from business park to rural residential. Dellcroft Farms' concerns with the transition zoning are similar to the concerns the Excelsior Group has in connection with the development of the Wealshire Group's memory care facility on property adjacent to the Excelsior Group's land. Transition zoning makes sense in both contexts in order to create a gradual transition from densely zoned business/industrial use to low density residential use. Furthermore, the applicable portion of the North Parcel will provide for easy extension of the M.U.S.A. utilities, as those utilities service the parcels directly to the north and east of the North Parcel. Leaving the easterly portion of the North Parcel zoned as rural residential when it is set between business and industrial zoning to the north and east creates an abrupt transition in the zoning districts and reduces the value of Dellcroft Farms' property. Dellcroft Farms believes that low density residential (R-1) is both fair and makes more sense for a zoning transition from R-1 to the adjacent industriaUbusiness zoned areas. Note that the AutoMotorPlex parcel will have approximately 63% hardcover after development is complete. While we appreciate the landscape screening that has been added to the project, because of the topography of the site and lack of berms, the efficacy of the proposed landscape screening will be limited. 4835-7262-9309.2 MASLON LLP CITY OF MEDINA PLANNING COMMISSION 7 December 2016 Page 2 We acknowledge that we are requesting changes to the guiding of a portion of the North Parcel late in the Comprehensive PIan update process. However, note that we would have requested these changes earlier had we known about the proposed AutoMotorPlex project. Dellcroft Farms' request for the reguiding are a direct result of the dramatic change along Arrowhead Drive that will result from the AutoMotorPlex project.

COPYRIGHT © HENNEPIN COUNTY 2016 ifiJc Housing Justice Center Public Interest Legal Advocates December 1, 2016 Scott Johnson, City Administrator Dusty Finke, City Planner Debra Peterson, Associate Planner City of Medina 2052 County Road 24 Medina, MN 55340 RE : Medina Comprehensive Plan/Affordable Housing Element Dear Mr. Johnson, Mr. Finke, and Ms. Peterson: The Housing Justice Center (HJC) is a public interest law firm dedicated to preserving and expanding the supply of affordable housing. As local governments around the metro area update their comprehensive plans for 2018, we are monitoring these efforts, to ensure that local governments adopt housing policies in their comprehensive plans that fully comply with statutory requirements and lead to increased affordable housing production. As a part of our advocacy, we have been following Medina's progress on its comprehensive plan update, which we understand could be ready for jurisdictional review by January 2017. We have specifically reviewed your draft of "Chapter 4: Housing and Neighborhoods" and wanted to draw your attention to concerns our organization has about Medina's affordable housing implementation program. As the City notes in Chapter 4, Medina is growing and is committed to providing opportunities for a diversity of housing at a range of costs to support residents at all stages of their lives. We are pleased to see the City making this commitment but the City's track record on affordable housing and the perfunctory nature of its draft housing implementation plan call this commitment into question. As the plan itself reveals, the City has made little progress in constructing new affordable housing. From 2010-2015, Medina issued no building permits for multifamily housing units. (Ch.4, pg. 1). According to current Met Council data, Medina has a need for 506 new affordable units between 2011 and 2020. At this point, halfway through that ten year period, Medina has produced 26 affordable units, which is 5% of its need when it should be at the 50% mark to be on schedule. These figures demonstrate that Medina's present approach to affordable housing production is not working. Unless the City adopts more effective approaches to affordable housing production in its 570 Asbury Street, Suite 104 • Saint Paul, MN 55104 • tel: 651.642.0102 • fax: 651.642.0051 Dedicated to expanding and preserving the supply of affordable housing in Minnesota and nationwide comprehensive plan, Medina will fall even further behind during the next decade, when Medina will have a need for an additional 253 affordable units for 2021-2030. The cty's experience with Medina Woods Townhomes also suggests room for improvement on how the city approaches affordable housing. As you know, the City Council withdrew its support from Dominium's original proposal in the face of strong community opposition, forcing Dominium to return with an altered proposal. That community opposition was largely based upon fears around property values and crime, concerns which evidence has largely discredited. The altered proposal was reduced to 26 units in order to not require a rezoning, and could no longer count on a waiver of sewer and water connection fees by the city. Those two factors, plus the resulting increased construction costs and architectural fees due to redesign, drove up project costs dramatically. Minnesota Housing calculated that project costs per unit had increased by $85,919 as a result of the Cty's actions. This substantially increased the drain on state and federal housing resources, reducing the funding available to produce additional affordable units elsewhere in the region. The city's housing element of its comprehensive plan is an opportunity to ensure this unfortunate result does not repeat itself. We would urge the city to review and incorporate strategies from other cities that have successfully overcome community opposition, for example the City of Carver. Our biggest concern is with the City's discussion of Affordable Housing programs, starting on p. 4-6. When the draft chapter does address how a program may be used, it simply states the City "should develop" a policy; for example; the chapter states that Medina "should develop" a tax abatement policy, a tax increment financing policy, and a fee waiver or reduction policy. This is not a plan; it is a document saying there should be a plan. We were part of a working advisory group that drafted the regional Housing Policy Plan. One of the problems the group sought to address was the tendency toward vague and noncommittal housing implementation plans. Too often cities included language in their past plans indicating they would consider certain policies, and nothing more. In our review of subsequent action on those plans, the most common pattern was that such policy ideas remained on the shelf, never to be considered again. Changing this pattern of vagueness and inaction became a major theme of the Housing Policy Plan. According to the Plan, guiding land at higher densities alone is insufficient to meet the existing or projected needs for affordable housing. Complete implementation programs must identify a community's `public programs, fiscal devices, and other specific actions to be undertaken in states sequence.' (Minn. Stat. § 473.859, Subd. 4) to meet housing needs as stated in statute, and clearly and directly link which tools will be used, and in what circumstances, to explicitly address the needs previously identified. 570 Asbury Street, Suite 104 • Saint Paul, MN 55104 • tel: 651.642.0102 • fax: 651.642.0051 Dedicated to expanding and preserving the supply of affordable housing in Minnesota and nationwide The Met Council has elaborated on this further in the Local Planning Handbook for cities. In the section on "Housing : Linking Tools to Needs", the Council emphasizes the importance of considering any and every tool at a city's disposal to address the community's housing needs. The handbook then sets out a table as an example. Rather than simply stating that the city should consider a particular tool, the table repeatedly indicates "we will explore" tool XYZ and then sets a time deadline for documenting and completing decisions on the tool in question. Medina's plan should follow this format. Of course the City may need to engage in further analysis and discussion with respect to some of the policy tools or investments under consideration; the point is to commit to completing that work and doing so by a particular date. Furthermore, in addition to this limited review of the cited affordable housing production programs, several of the recognized tools and resources to address housing needs, which are listed in the Metropolitan Council's local planning handbook, go unaddressed in Medina's housing chapter. If the city has intentionally rejected those other tools, the Plan should say why; if not, the Plan should address them. Medina's draft affordable housing implementation program, which begins on page six of its draft housing chapter, does not state the affordable housing programs in which the City presently participates and what programs the City will use to meets its 2021-2030 allocation of affordable housing need. For example, the draft chapter states that "The City already partners in a number of the programs in order to support affordable housing." (Ch. 4, pg. 6). However, the chapter does not list what these programs are. The chapter does say that Hennepin County participates in several of the listed programs (for example, Community Development Block Grants, HOME Funds, Neighborhood Stabilization Program), but Medina's individual relationship with these programs and Hennepin County's administration of them is omitted. Does Medina have a history with these programs? How will the City work with Hennepin County to administer these programs locally in order to build new affordable housing units? These questions are unanswered in the City's draft housing chapter. Even as simple a commitment as stating the city will actively seek out and solicit affordable housing developers would be a constructive action to take. The city's Housing Chapter also addresses the city's obligation to guide land for higher density residential development by identifying three sites that would be zoned so as to allow for meeting the city's need allocation of 253 units. The minimum number of units planned for those three sites totals 273 units, which means 93% of those units would have to be affordable. Unless the city envisions at least 93% of housing units on those sites being affordable, it would appear the city should be planning for a greater number of total units on those sites, with correspondingly higher minimum densities. (Housing Policy Plan, pg. 113). In its present form, Medina's draft housing chapter does not meet the statutory and Council standard for an adequate implementation plan. Without a more detailed analysis of the recognized tools and resources to address housing needs, Medina's housing chapter will be found inadequate and, more importantly, the chapter will not provide city staff, elected officials, residents, and other interested parties with a blueprint for how Medina will meet its 253- unit allocation of affordable housing need for 2021-2030. 570 Asbury Street, Suite 104 • Saint Paul, MN 55104 • tel: 651.642.0102 • fax: 651.642.0051 Dedicated to expanding and preserving the supply of affordable housing in Minnesota and nationwide Housing Justice Center is committed to ensuring that all metro cities adopt robust affordable housing implementation plans designed to produce new affordable housing units and meet their share of affordable housing need.

It is my understanding our properties have been designated for Medium Density since 2006 with 2016 staging - a designation made by the council at a time when Bridgewater first opened. Our request is consistent with city objectives and market demands for Lower Density housing in our area and we are amenable to the delayed staging of 2020 or earlier. Dusty, our properties are no longer situated in a Rural Residential environment. We are literally being surrounded by residential, Business and Commercial development that depreciates both our Rural Residential lifestyle and our property value. During one council meeting you referenced Rural Residential residents complaining about no longer having the same quality of life when surrounded by developments. We won't speak for others however I will tell you what we have experienced. My wife and I acquired 12.3 acres in 1993, installed septic and a well and have maintained a private road at our own expense when we obviously could have purchased a more substantial house on a 1/3 acre lot had we chosen a neighborhood lifestyle. Currently, our entire western property line has a blacktop path with strangers walking through what used to be our yard, the western property line also borders a proposed Business Development Staged 2018. We used to see stars to the north, occasionally we could see the northern lights. Now the majority of our northern property line adjoins the rear of the Bridgewater development. Ambient light shows through from OSI to our southwest, yard and house lights show to our southeast. Recently, we found a used needle and syringe in the landscaping on our side of the path (no more getting the mail without shoes on) and I was called a F_ING A_HOLE for asking someone to stop driving his 4-wheeler on our property - property that is posted as Private Drive/No Trespassing in 3 locations. Please share this with other members of the Council.

Vgbra P¢tgrson fIssociatg Planngr City of Medina From: Vicki Rahn [mailto:vrassbachrahn@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, October 28, 2016 9:21 AM To: Debra Peterson Subject: 2040 Comprehensive Plan Open House Hi Debra, Per our discussion, I am sending a quick note regarding County Road 116. I live in Foxberry Farms and have been concerned about the 55 mph speed limit that is currently posted. Sometimes I along with other neighbors feel like we are taking a huge risk driving in and out of our neighborhood with drivers coming from the North on Co Rd 116 in the evening and heading South on Co Rd 116 in the morning. 1. There is a passing lane heading North, however people somehow feel inconvenienced moving over or try to get as close to possible to a non-moving vehicle trying to turn left in to our neighborhood - this has become an epidemic. 2. Vehicles on Co Rd 116 tend to block our entrances in the morning rush hour so we can not get out of our neighborhood. (This has become less of a problem with the 21eft turn lanes onto Hwy 55 East). I feel a solution would be to adjust the speed limit from 55 mph + to 35 mph between Hwy 55 and Hackamore Road. (This area has a high number of residents trying to get on to and off of Co Rd 116) I shouldn't feel like I am taking my life in my own hands most or the time I try to get back in my own neighborhood with the distracted, inattentive drivers behind me going 55 mph+. Thank You For Your Consideration.

Belland DATE: December 29, 2016 RE: Department Updates WMDT Update On December 22nd we held our year end meeting with the West Metro Drug Taskforce at our office. The taskforce continues to be very busy. The focus is still the local cases affecting our local schools and communities. The investigators continue to do a great job but the cases never seem to slow. We have made several arrests in the last month involving suspects selling drugs in our schools. We continue to battle the heroin epidemic in our area. The meth issue continues to be a problem with several large seizures occurring in the last two months. We have seen several forfeitures clear the courts in the last month. The board approved a reimbursement of $20,000 per agent to the cities in February of 2017. In January I will have the summary of the year end numbers for 2016. Hennepin County Radio I had no luck with Motorola trying to get the same deal as they offered Hennepin County. Erin calculated the finance cost on the lease purchase plan through Hennepin County; the finance cost would be $11,458 over the seven years; this is on top of the cost of the radios. John Gunderson, Hennepin Radio Project Manager, does not expect the deal with Motorola to go forward until the second quarter of 2017. Officer Gregory with our department, who is our radio rep on the Radio SOP Committee, informed me that at the last Radio SOP meeting it was reported that the new Motorola APX radios, the type we are looking at purchasing, are having technical problems. My recommendation is to maintain the current radios and evaluate the offer later in 2017. I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Patrol by Sergeant Jason Nelson - On vacation Investigations by Investigator David Hall On December 16, 2016, a business in the Hamel area reported that 12 tires and rims were stolen from vehicles in their lot overnight. At this time there is no suspect information or evidence for further investigation. On December 17, 2016, an individual in Loretto reported a theft of a motor vehicle from outside a business. The vehicle was unlocked and the keys were in it. The vehicle has been entered as stolen and some suspicious circumstances surrounding the incident are being investigated. On December 21, 2016, a complaint of a threat by phone call was reported. The complainant provided a statement and phone number. The suspect has been identified and spoken to by phone. Case to be forwarded to the Hennepin County Attorney's Office should the complainant wish to proceed. On December 21, 2016, a credit card fraud was reported at a business in the Hamel area. Video surveillance was obtained and the suspect has been identified. Further follow up to be completed. There are a total of 10 open investigations. MEMORANDUM TO: City Council, through City Administrator Scott Johnson FROM: Steve Scherer, Public Works Director DATE: December 27, 2016 MEETING: January 3, 2017 SUBJECT: Public Works Update STREETS • More snow and some added ice for fun. Public works was out twice over the Christmas Holiday weekend. I don't believe there is anything more challenging, and at the same time nerve racking, than driving a 50,000+ truck on ice. Over Christmas we had two ice events, both in the early morning hours. I am happy to say all vehicles and personnel returned in one piece. Santa was late for some, but he did eventually show up. • The road conditions currently are in good shape. There are some spots of ice, but nothing critical. WATER/SEWER/STORMWATER • The final pay request for the Well #8 pump house project is in the packet. The project went well and is now complete. • The bids for the water tower have been sent out, and we will be opening them up in late January. • There have been two utility meetings in relation to the 116/55 project. There are a lot of utilities located in that area and some careful planning is being done to try to avoid any interruptions for our businesses in the project area. PARKS/TRAILS • Hamel Legion Park is busier than I have ever seen it. The ice is good and there is snow on the hill for the kids to use while on Christmas vacation this week. • With winter activities there is always a risk of someone falling or slipping on ice or snow in our parks, trails, or skating rinks. Public works does what it can to reduce these events. The recent ice storms have iced up a lot of areas on the trails. PW will do its best to reduce the risk by applying some sand to the worst areas. MISCELLANEOUS • I will be out of town from January 11th through the 15th • It's been a great year for PW. A lot has been accomplished and we are looking for another big year in 2017.
