Johnson noted that under the contract there is language regarding insurance relating to
the resolution put in place by the City Council in July 2011. He provided information on
the insurance cap and estimated cost.
Mitchell commented that in 2016 there was work done on yardsticks for budget and
expenses, noting the indexes that the City is using. He stated that it was noticed that the
annual increases for some items were exceeding those indexes. He stated that he
would like additional review of raises rather than simply issuing annual COLA increases.
He stated that there has now been two years of insurance under the new carrier and
therefore a comparison can be made during 2018. He noted that a similar review would
be done in 2018 for the wage increases.
Moved by Pederson, seconded by Martin, to approve the police labor agreement
between Law Enforcement Labor Services, Inc. (Local #36) and the City of Medina.
Motion passed unanimously.
VI. COMMENTS (7:06 p.m.)
A. Comments from Citizens on Items not on the Agenda
There were none.
B. Park Commission
Scherer reported that the Park Commission will meet on December 20th and may talk
about the Mark of Excellence proposal. He stated that Public Works will begin flooding
the skating rinks. He stated that they also hope to begin preparing the sledding hill.
C. Planning Commission
Finke reported that the Planning Commission will meet the following week to hold three
hearings. He stated that the Mark of Excellence Concept Plan, both north and south,
has been updated and will be reviewed. He stated that the Commission will also
consider an ordinance regarding the keeping of chickens and bees on smaller Tots and a
request from Hennepin County Emergency Management Department to construct a
fabric structure within their storage yard.
VII. NEW BUSINESS
A. 2018 Budget (7:08 p.m.)
1. Budget and Tax Lew Presentation — Public Comment
Barnhart stated that there has been over six months of preparation for the budget, as
well as the departments tracking their expenses throughout the year. She stated that
there is a 3 percent levy increase to the general fund, which will equate to a total of 2.5
percent increase to the levy. She provided information on the general fund and specific
line item increases. She reviewed proposed changes to personnel and personnel costs.
She provided additional information on the health insurance costs and noted that in 2018
staff will continue to watch the numbers and ensure that the cap is not exceeded that
was set in 2011. She provided a pie graph displaying the expenditures for the general
fund, broken down by department/function. She provided information on the tax rate and
market value, noting that the City will have a 5.7 percent increase in the market rate
which is attributed to new construction from 2016 and increased market values in
existing home values. She stated that estimated tax capacity will increase by 6 percent
from 2017. She explained the ratio that each organization receives from property taxes,

Martin stated that part of the rural nature of the City is that there is less density to spread
the costs across, which can equate to a higher cost to provide the first-rate services
desired.
Barnhart noted that per capita information is released with the annual audit and noted
that staff is in the process of updating that information to ensure that the figures are
correct.
Martin thanked Mr. Dickerson for providing his input.
Mitchell stated that additional clarity should be included for the special revenue sources.
He referenced the debt service funds and bond issues, noting that it would help to know
the beginning amount for each fund.
Barnhart stated that she took note and will include the beginning amount and total
amount owed in addition to what will be owed for the year itself.
Martin commended staff, noting that this reflects a very cooperative staff.
Dickerson asked how close the City was to the proposed budget for 2017.
Barnhart stated that it appears the City will have a slight surplus from 2017 and will
come in under budget. She stated that the last three years the City has also come in
under budget because of the increased growth and building permit fees.
Mitchell stated that the Council has reviewed the CIP several times and there were no
additional comments.
2. Resolution No. 2017-98 Approvinq 2018 Final Tax Lew
Moved by Martin, seconded by Anderson, to adopt Resolution No. 2017-98 Approving
the 2018 Final Tax Levy. Motion passed unanimously.
3. Resolution No. 2017-99 Approvinq 2018 Final Budget
Moved by Martin, seconded by Pederson, to adopt Resolution No. 2017-99 Approving
the 2018 Final Budget. Motion passed unanimously.
B. David and Katherine Crosby — 2402 Hamel Road and PID 10-118-23-33-0002
— Lot Combination and Amended Conditional Use Permit (7:38 p.m.)
Finke stated that the Council approved the CUP earlier this year and the property owner
is now proposing to add the 33 acres adjacent to the east that they have purchased. He
noted that the original lot exceeding the requirements and therefore this additional land
will continue to increase the total land amount.
David Crosby stated that they are longtime property owners and their daughter will be
adding to the tradition by building her home on the property as well.
Moved by Anderson, seconded by Pederson, to direct staff to prepare a resolution
approving the lot combination for David and Katherine Crosby of property at 2402 Hamel
Road and immediately to the east. Motion passed unanimously.

their facilities within the public right-of-way. He stated that the most recent statutory
changes added small wireless facilities as allowed users within the right-of-way. He
stated that the City would have limited discretion as to the use of the right-of-way and
existing poles, if the small wireless facility falls within the size limitations. He stated that
the City must adopt the ordinance before the end of the year or permits will remain
unregulated and we cannot charge rent.
Pederson asked the City's responsibility for damage to equipment.
Finke replied that it would be no different than any other right-of-way user.
Batty stated that it would be difficult for a snowplow to hit the equipment. He stated that
they would be another right-of-way user and the liability would exist dependent on the
circumstances.
Martin stated that there is language specifying that the companies must carry adequate
insurance.
Finke stated that there are two ordinances, the right-of-way ordinance and the zoning
ordinance that would require a Conditional Use Permit in instances when a new pole is
being constructed within a zoning district that allows single-family housing.
Martin commented that staff continues to do a great job crafting ordinances. She stated
that she does have a few comments on which she desires clarity, including the language
regarding abandonment, degradation, the definition of certain terms, and the
requirement for right-of-way users to register.
Finke clarified that all right-of-way users are required to register, although the City may
not have a registration program.
Martin suggested creating a period of time within which a right-of-way user must register,
if not already registered. She provided additional questions and comments regarding
the requirements for insurance and self-insurance. She provided additional grammatical
suggestions. She stated that perhaps City staff should take another run at the
ordinances and it could come back on the Consent Agenda for the next meeting.
Mitchell confirmed the consensus of the Council that they do desire to have these
ordinances. He suggested that this move along with staff working with Martin to polish
up the details.
Batty stated that there are a few attorneys in his office that are very familiar with this
language and topic. He stated that it is complicated and some of the statutory language
is not the best. He agreed that staff could review the language and clean up the
language to the extent that they can and bring the ordinances forward on the Consent
Agenda at the next meeting in December.
Pederson asked how the City would determine the leases and track the leases and
insurance that could be reviewed annually. He stated that perhaps the system would be
similar to how letters of credit are tracked.
