4. Park Commission Comments - Park Commission Appointments
The City Council decided to advertise for the park commission vacancy.
5. Planning Commission Comments - Planning Commission Appointments
John Ferris said that the city advertised for applicants for the planning commission va ncy
and received no applicants. He said the planning and zoning department is re-adverti ing for
that position.
Ann Thies said that maybe the city council should reduce the number of members.
John Ferris said that there were currently nine members.
Ann Thies said that the council should consider reducing the number of members to between 5
and 7.
There was some discussion about the number of members needed on the planning
commission. The city council decided to add this issue to the next city council agenda.
6. Presentations - Audit presentation by Dave Hinnenkamp from Kern, DeWenter, and Viere.
Dave Hinnenkamp reviewed the highlights of the city's financial condition as of the year ending
December 31, 1996. He pointed out that the city's tax rate of 14.58% was one of the lowest in
the State of Minnesota and was a good indicator of the financial stability and strength of the
city. He said that the city's tax capacity and tax rate were rising in unison with one another
which was also a good indicator of a financial stability.
He reviewed the expenditures and revenues for the general fund. He said that charge for
services made up 13.2% of the total revenues for the city. He said this was high in co parison
to other cities, but showed that those using the city's services are paying for the servic s they
receive rather than the services being funded by the general property tax.
Hinnenkamp said that he would go into greater detail on special revenue and debt se ce
funds later. He said that the water fund was very close to meeting its depreciation
expenditure. This meant that the water fund would be able to meet its future obligation for
replacing its infrastructure. However, the sewer fund, after covering depreciation, was till
operating at a deficit. He said that at the finance committee's pre -audit review, they di cussed
revising the depreciation schedule to more accurately reflect the lives of the sewer
infrastructure. This would more than likely extend the lives of the infrastructure and decrease
the expenditure for depreciation.
There was some discussion about what current numbers were being used for deprecia
what the numbers should be.
Phil Zietlow asked Glenn Cook what the life of the sewer and water system should be.
Glenn Cook said that it's variable, but not less than 50 years and not more than 100.
Ann Thies asked when this depreciation schedule would be revised.

Paul Robinson said the depreciation schedule would be addressed as a part of the 1998
budget process.
Jim Johnson said that there were a number of recommendations made by the auditor in the
management letter and wanted to know how the city was going to address these.
John Ferris said that the first recommendation - review costs of capital lease agreements- was
a good recommendation and that the next time the city enters into a lease agreement they
should conduct an analysis of how much the lease costs vs. purchasing the equipment.
The second recommendation concerned coding special assessments. Dave Hinnenkamp said
that this comment was in last year's management letter as well, and that this year a schedule
was laid out of all assessments, but there were a couple of assessments that needed to be
recoded. He said that every year this process has improved.
John Ferris said that the third suggestion was to write off old checks that are outstanding.
Ferris said this would be done as soon as possible.
The fourth issue was accounting for compensated absences. Ferris said this was a new
comment in the management letter. This comment has to do with the personnel policy and
clarifying what date is used for each employees anniversary date. The auditor recommended
that the city create a system to notify each employee of how many sick days and holidays they
have at their anniversary date or at year end so that there is better communication and
accounting for compensated absences.
Dave Hinnenkamp made special mention of two debt service funds that would not be able to
pay off their debt service obligations and will need money from an additional levy or from
another source, such as, the general fund. Fund 302 will be paid off in 1996 and will be about
$50,000 short and fund 303 will probably be about $200,000 to 300,000 short. He said that
there was around $280,000 in deferred assessments yet to be received by the general fund
that could cover a large portion of the shortfall in these two funds.
Dave Hinnenkamp reviewed some of his suggestions and said that overall the city's finances
are in very good shape and thanked the city council for the opportunity to present the audit.
The city council thanked Dave Hinnenkamp for a job well done.
Moved by Phil Zietlow, seconded by Jim Johnson to accept the Audited Financial Statements
as of December 31, 1996. Motion passed unanimously.
In order to accommodate presenters in attendance at the meeting, Mayor Ferris adjusted the
agenda to cover two items under new business.
7. Review and Preliminary Approval of Trunk Highway(TH) 55 Phase II
Jim Dillman said that in the packet was a map of the phase II expansion of TH 55 into four
lanes.
Jim Johnson asked if the access to TH 55 would be closed west of Reg Pederson's property.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
May 20, 1997
104
Jim Dillman said no it would not be closed until a frontage road was constructed. At that point
the access would be closed.
There was some discussion about the frontage road.
Jim Dillman said that the frontage road would at some point extend from Tamarack to
Arrowhead.
There was some discussion about how property owners, affected by the acquisition, f It about
the proposed closing of accesses to Highway 55 once a frontage road was developed
Jim Grube of Hennepin County said that the right-of-way(ROW) for the expansion to fur lanes
had been reached but that ROW acquisition for a frontage road has not been done. H said
he was not sure how the homeowners would react.
Phil Zietlow said that he wanted to make sure that property owners in the area know what's
going on.
Jim Dillman said that the four lane section of the highway of this issue is pretty cut and dry.
John Ferris asked what action staff wanted from city council this evening.
Jim Dillman said staff would like the city council to pass a resolution giving preliminary approval
to the phase II construction of TH 55.
Jim Grube said once he received preliminary approval he could then go to the state an begin
drafting plans for construction.
Ann Thies asked if the conduit mentioned in the city engineer's letter would be a part of the
final construction drawings.
Jim Grube said that as a part of putting together the final plan that they would come ba k and
seek the public works director's input and the addition of conduit would be part of that
discussion. He said they anticipate opening bids for this project around the first of the ear.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by Phil Zietlow, to approve Resolution 97-13 approvng the
preliminary layout of phase 11 of the TH 55 expansion with the inclusion of the city engi eer's
recommendation for conduit and that the county and city staff work out the final details f the
plan. Motion passed unanimously.
8. Review and Preliminary Approval of Arrowhead Frontage Road
Jim Dillman said there was not a lot of information included on this issue. He said the I st time
this issue was presented to the city council the county was willing to engineer and desi n the
road in exchange for a reduction in the sewer connection fees for the public works facility.
Dillman said there was a misunderstanding in this agreement. He said he thought the unty
was purchasing the property for the frontage road as a part of the acquisition of right -of way
for the TH 55.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
May 20, 1997
105
There was some discussion about where the frontage road would go.
Jim Grube said that they could seek funding from the state for the frontage road, but that the
city would have to offset some of the costs involved in the design and acquisition of the
property.
Phil Zietlow asked how much the acquisition of the property would cost.
Jim Grube said that the appraised value was around $60,000.
Grube said the county was still open to working on the frontage road but that they would need
to figure out how the property would be purchased.
Jim Grube said that he did not want his staff to put time into designing the frontage road until
there was a mutual agreement on purchasing the property.
John Ferris said that we should let this process continue with no further action.
9. Resolution 97-14 Approving Foxberry Farms Fourth Addition Final Plat
Loren Kohnen said that the city council had approved drafting this resolution with one
condition. This condition was how the fire department would fight a fire on two properties that
were more than the recommended distance from fire hydrants.
Kohnen said that Brandon Guest, of the Hamel Fire Department, made two suggestions for
alleviating this problem. One, was to sprinkle the homes, and, the second, was to require a 7
ton driveway 20 feet in width and extension of the hydrant.
Marc Anderson, representative for Lundgren Bros., said that they were willing to use one of
these two recommendations, but that they were not prepared to say which option they would
prefer. He suggested the city council pass the resolution giving Lundgren Bros. the option to
pick one of the two. He said the option including the driveway extension would encroach into
wetlands on the property and, if they were to choose that option, they would have to offset this
with wetland credits from their previous development.
Moved by Ann Thies, seconded by Jim Johnson, to adopt Resolution 97-14 Approving
Foxberry Farms Fourth Addition Final Plat and authorizing the Mayor and Clerk to sign the
resolution once the fire suppression option is determined. Motion passed unanimously.
10. APT Antenna Lease Agreement
Ron Batty said that since the agreement was distributed to the council two revisions had been
made. He said that on April 1 the council gave APT approval for a temporary lease to locate
on the city's water tower in Hamel and that after the Nextel antenna was completed APT would
have moved from the water tower site to the Nextel antenna. Now that the tower has been
built, APT is requesting a permanent lease on the Nextel tower. He said APT will be first co -
locator on that tower. Batty said this agreement falls into a typical format as the most recent
lease agreements. It includes a five year term that is renewable and requires a $1,000 a

month in rent. It differs in that they are a co -locator on the Nextel antenna and becau
there have been some complications.
e of that
There was some discussion about this unique situation but there were no additional changes
to the site lease.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by Ann Thies, to authorize execution of the site lease with
APT. Motion passed unanimously.
11. Ordinance Amendment - Land Excavation and Reclamation
Ron Batty said that the city council reviewed this ordinance amendment at the previous council
meeting. At that meeting the city council recommended two changes; one, was the addition of
a clean fill requirement, and the second, was to strengthen the language in the ordinance
regarding damage to the city's roads. Batty said that these two issues were dealt with in the
new version of this ordinance.
Moved by Phil Zietlow, seconded by Jim Johnson to accept these changes to the ordinance
and to pass this amendment. Motion passed unanimously.
12. Resolution 97-15 Authorizing Publication of Land Excavation and Reclamation
Amendments by Title and Summary
Moved by Phil Zietlow, seconded by Ann Thies, to adopt Resolution 97-15 Authorizing
Publication of Land Excavation and Reclamation Amendments by Title and Summary.
Motion passed unanimously.
14. Subdivision and Zoning Ordinance Regarding Individual Sewage Treatment Systems
Ron Batty said there were no changes to this ordinance from the last meeting, but that
council wanted more time to review the ordinance.
Phil Zietlow said he did not want people to be caught by the July 1, 1998 deadline and
recommended that the city council extend this to 1999.
There was general consensus for this change.
the city
There was some discussion about the amount of acreage needed for one septic site a d if two
sites could be located on one contiguous soil area or if you needed to have two separ e
areas of suitable soils.
Ron Batty said that both instances would be acceptable and that the ordinance should e
interpreted that way. He said that if it did not read clearly, the city council could chang this
section.
After some discussion the council decided to leave the language as written.
There was some discussion about whether or not this ordinance would be conflict with
Medina's individual sewage disposal ordinance and if the city council should wait before
passing this ordinance.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
May 20, 1997
107
Ron Batty said that yes, the two ordinances would be out of sync for a time but that they would
still be enforceable.
Phil Zietlow said that changing the requirement in rural residential areas from two acres to five
acres was a significant change to the ordinance. He asked the city attorney if this could be
considered capricious or if it would hold up in court.
Ron Batty said that the city council had the ability to control the septic capacity and density
within the city. The city would not be compelled to have lots as small as possible.
Phil Zietlow said that in the rural industrial area, five acres of contiguous soil seemed small and
suggested that the city council consider increasing this to 10 acres.
There was some discussion on this issue but the consensus of the council was to leave it at
five acres.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by Phil Zietlow to pass this ordinance amendment to the
subdivision and zoning ordinance regarding individual sewage treatment systems changing the
year in which five acres soils would be required in rural residential areas from 1998 to 1999.
Motion passed unanimously.
14. Resolution 97-16 Authorizing Publication of Subdivision and Zoning Ordinance
regarding Individual Sewage Treatment System by Title and Summary
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by Ann Thies to pass Resolution 97-16 Authorizing
Publication of Subdivision and Zoning Ordinance regarding Individual Sewage Treatment
System by Title and Summary. Motion passed unanimously.
15. Approval of Bids for Independence Lift Station #1
John Ferris said that he had looked over the Tri-City Agreement and that the agreement clearly
states that the cities of Independence and Greenfield would pay up to $70,000 adjusted by the
Engineering News Record, around $75,000, and that Medina would pay the rest, which is
around $20,000.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by Ann Thies, to accept the bids for Independence Beach
Lift Station #1. Motion passed unanimously.
16. Water System Expansion Discussion
Glenn Cook used an overhead to explain the three sections of the proposed watermain at the
corner of Highway 55 and 101. He said that the two proposals to either combine sections A
and B or B and C, A being the section running along 55 from Hunter to 101, B - the section
from 55 up to Cherry Hill, and C - the section crossing 55 south from along 101. He described
the costs of the various alternatives.
John Ferris asked which option Glenn Cook recommended.
Glenn Cook said that crossing TH 55 was a better option.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
May 20, 1997
108
Ann Thies asked why this would be a better improvement.
There was some discussion on this option.
On of the drawbacks of the TH 55 option was that the city would have to pay a larger portion of
the assessment.
Jim Dillman said that he felt crossing TH 55 was a better option since the water line currently
serving Cherry Hill was 25 feet below the ground and in poor soils that put the system Linder a
lot of fatigue. He said there has been some rotting and breaking occurring in this sect on of
the pipe and he was concerned that if there was a break in this section there would be no way
to serve Cherry Hill with water. Therefore, crossing TH 55 would provide a meaningful option
for emergencies.
Phil Zietlow asked if there was money available from trunk connection fees.
Paul Robinson said yes there was that there was money both the 501 and 502 funds t at were
to become general capital improvement funds for water and sewer. He said there was at least
$180,000 available.
There was some discussion about the costs involved.
Jim Johnson asked how the homes along Highway 101 would be assessed.
Glenn Cook described the typical assessment procedure. He said the city council cou d
reduce the assessment for per foot on properties that were zoned residential and incre se the
assessment for those properties that were zoned commercial.
Phil Zietlow said that they were just looking to make the assessments fair.
John Ferris asked what the city council should do at this point.
Ron Batty said that the city council could order a public hearing and he could prepare a
resolution to select the option that the city council would like to pursue.
The consensus of the city council was that option that included B and C, the option putting the
pipe underneath Highway 55 and up 101 to Cherry Hill, was the preferred option.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by Phil Zietlow to direct the city attorney to set up a ublic
hearing notifying those who will be assessed for the watermain extension project to loo the
Cherry Hill water main and provide water to the corner of 55 and 101. Motion passed
unanimously.
There was some discussion about when the public hearing would take place.
Ron Batty said that they would have to determine a date that it would either happen in the
second meeting in June or the first meeting in July.

17. Final Approval of Officer Hiring
Rick Rabenort said that Scott Kroger had passed all of the requirements for being an officer
and he recommended that the city council approve hiring Scott Kroger with a start date of June
2.
Moved by Phil Zietlow, seconded by Ann Thies to approve hiring Scott Kroger. Motion
passed unanimously.
18. Reject Bids for City Hall Addition
Phil Zietlow said that before the city council rejects the bids he would like to discuss an
additional alternative. He said that the low bid for the building was $282,000 and that this
number was still higher than their target number even with a plan that was scaled down version
of the original plan. He said that he, with the help of an architect friend and John Hamilton, put
together an alternative plan that addresses all of the concerns of the original addition but
would cost a lot less.
Zietlow said that one of his concerns with the original plan was that it made the community
room smaller. He said that in five to ten years the community room may have more demands
on it and may need to be bigger not smaller. He said the main difference in his revised plan
was that there was no expansion of the building except the addition of a 28' x 28' garage and
a 10' x 10' lobby area.
There was some discussion about the details of the plan.
Ann Thies asked how long would this addition last.
Phil Zietlow said that was difficult to determine but this alternative meets all of the same
requirements as the previous addition plan. He said he would like to bid out the garage and
lobby addition but that the city would be the general contractor and hire out for all of the
remaining work such as the wiring, heating, painting, and carpeting. This way he believed the
city could save some money. Zietlow asked the city attorney if that would be possible.
Ron Batty said that it would be possible as long as they are not avoiding the bidding
requirements by doing it this way.
Moved by Phil Zietlow, seconded by Jim Johnson, to reject the city hall bids. Motion passed
unanimously.
Phil Zietlow said that he would like to be able to use a different architect to design the revised
police department plans. He recommended using the architect who came in second from the
original architect bidding process.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by Ann Thies, to authorize the police department to hire an
architect on an hourly basis at $75/hour. Motion passed unanimously.

20. COPS Grant
Rick Rabenort said that he had recently received a letter regarding the COPS grant. He said
the letter basically stated that the city needed to use the money or they would lose th7 money.
He said that the city applied for a COPS grant for one full time officer and four part time
officers. This money could be used for additional officers but could not be used to replace
existing officers. The city would receive the most grant money in the first year and then the
amount would be reduced each year up to the fourth year where the city would have to pay
the entire cost of the officer.
John Ferris said that last year they studied the cost of adding an officer and the amount of
additional coverage the city would receive. He said he believed the city would need another
officer in that time and felt that using this grant would be a good way of adding an additional
officer.
Phil Zietlow said that he would rather get the force to full strength, hire the part time CSO and
see, if that point, it looked like the city needed additional coverage.
There was a long discussion about these two issues, whether or not the city needed an
additional officer, or whether it was better to wait and see if there was a demonstrated need for
an additional officer.
Ann Thies was concerned that the city would not be able to hire another officer in time to make
a possible deadline for this grant.
There were several questions about whether the grant could be extended, when they ‘ivould
need to hire an officer by, and if they could accept the grant but not use the money for a period
of time.
The consensus of the city council was to have the police chief look into these issues and bring
this issue back to the city council.
21. Hiring a Community Service Officer
Rick Rabenort said that initially the city council budgeted for one part time CSO at 25 ours a
week at $9.50 an hour. He said that according to the city's personnel policy, if an officer or
person works over 24 hours in a week, they would be required to receive paid benefits He
suggested that the city council hire two CSO's for 13 to 14 hour per week at $8.50 and hour.
He said this would provide the department more options and the city would not be req ired to
pay for benefits.
Rick said that he had two excellent candidates and would like to be able to hire these
candidates to fill this position.
Moved by Phil Zietlow, seconded by Ann Thies, to hire two part time CSO's for a total • f 28
hours a week at $8.50 an hour. Motion passed unanimously.

22. Long Lake Fire Department Capital Purchase Request
Phil Zietlow said that Long Lake Fire Department would like the city to pay for a portion of an
equipment purchase for the fire department. He said that Medina's share of this purchase
would be 8.25%. He said that the City of Orono is driving the purchase of this capital
equipment and that their share of this purchase would be 71%.
Zietlow said that Long Lake Fire Department did an excellent job of preparing the information
for this purchase. He said that Orono would like them to go ahead and plan on purchasing two
of these trucks and round the amount to $100,000. Zietlow said that he would rather the city
approve the purchase of the first truck and wait to approve the purchase of the second truck.
He recommended that the city council approve $3,795 for the initial vehicle purchase and
requested that the Long Lake Fire Department create a second request when they need
money for the second truck.
Moved by Phil Zietlow, seconded by Jim Johnson to approve $3, 795 for the Long Lake Fire
Department's Capital Purchase. Motion passed unanimously.
23. Annual Park Tour
Jim Dillman said that on May 21 the park commission will be touring the city parks and invited
those who would like to attend to show up at city hall at 6:00 p.m.
24. Annual Contribution for Parks from Bonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik
The city council thanked the city's engineering firm for their contribution of $200 towards the
city park fund.
25. Name of the Hamel Legion Park
Jim Johnson said that the name used in the original contract was wrong. In that contract the
park's name "Hamel Memorial Park " but since the entire park was not memorialized, it was not
possible to name it a memorial park. The legion had intended that the park be named the
"Hamel Legion Park".
Enclosed were a number of documents from Gerald Dykhoff to help explain where some of
these misunderstandings took place.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by John Ferris to name the Hamel Legion Park as such.
Motion passed unanimously.
26. Membership in the Suburban Rate Authority
Jim Johnson said that the cost for membership in the Suburban Rate Authority was
approximately $400 per year. He said he would like the city council to join the SRA for an
additional year. He said that they take care of a number of right of way issues, and utility rate
issues, and that the city gets more than $400 in value back from this membership.
Medina City Council Meeting Minutes
May 20, 1997

Phil Zietlow said that he believed that a lot of people were fighting these same battles and
believed this was a duplication of effort.
Ann Thies also considered parts of the SRA's efforts to be duplication, but believed that there
were some issues that they took care of that were not in the jurisdiction of others.
Moved by Jim Johnson, seconded by Ann Thies to approve $400 to join the Suburban
Authority for a one year trial membership.
