CONSENT AGENDA A. Approve On-Sale Wine License and Off-Sale Intoxicating Liquor License to Three Rivers Park District at Baker National Golf Course, 2925 Parkview Drive – Three Rivers Park District currently holds a 3.2 malt beverage on-sale and off-sale liquor license at Baker National Golf Course. With the decrease in availability of 3.2 malt beverage products, they have applied to increase their liquor license to sell wine and strong beer. State law and Medina city ordinance allow serving strong beer if an establishment holds a wine license and a 3.2 malt beverage license. All paperwork and fees are in order. Staff recommends approval. No attachments for this item. B. Approve Weed Control Services Agreement with Jenco Property Maintenance – After soliciting quotes for weed control and fertilization, Public Works staff is recommending utilizing city equipment to internally complete the city’s fertilization needs and contract with Jenco Property Maintenance to handle the weed control. Staff recommends approval. See attached memo and agreement. C. Authorize Recruitment and Appointment for Seasonal Public Works Maintenance Technician – Staff is seeking authorization to begin the recruitment process for the seasonal public works maintenance position and appoint the best candidate. This is a budgeted seasonal position to support the public works department with seasonal parks and public works needs. Staff recommends approval. See attached job advertisement and job description. D. Authorize Internal Job Posting for Police Officer Position – The second police officer candidate that we had selected to fill one of the two vacant officer positions did not pass the background process. Staff is requesting City Council authorization to open the position back up to post internally to allow our existing Community Service Officers to apply, interview, and go through the full background/physical/psychological exams process. Staff recommends approval. See attached memo.  2 E. Resolution Accepting Donation from Farmers State Bank of Hamel – Farmers State Bank of Hamel has offered to donate $200 toward the Police Department’s annual bike safety rodeo. Staff recommends approval of the resolution accepting the donation. See attached resolution. VII. PRESENTATION A. Three Rivers Park District – Commissioner Marge Beard will be at the City Council meeting to introduce herself and provide an update on Three Rivers Park District. No attachments for this item. VIII. NEW BUSINESS A. Hackamore Road Project Estimates and Scope of Work – The cities of Medina and Corcoran have received proposals from WSB and Wenck Engineering for engineering design work for the Hackamore Road project, which is a shared project with Corcoran. The RFP was for preparation of “30% design” and “75% design” for the corridor from County Road 101 to County Road 116 and extending through each intersection as necessary to make the improvements align. The work will not result in final plans and specifications, which will be prepared at the appropriate time for each phase of the project. Staff recommends that Medina agree to be responsible for half of the expenses for the 30%/75% design as described in this proposal. See attached memo and proposals. Recommended Motion: Move to approve the proposal from WSB for the 30% and 75% design work for the Hackamore Road Improvements and to equally split the costs of such design work with the City of Corcoran. XI. APPROVAL TO PAY BILLS Recommended Motion: Motion to approve the bills, EFT 005398E-005416E for $66,223.05 and order check numbers 049878-049941 for $124,194.45 and payroll EFT 0510011-0510043 for $54,065.08.

He commented that the department is very lucky to 33 have Mr. Ende, who sets such a high example. 34 35 Moved by Anderson, seconded by DesLauriers, to adopt Resolution No. 2020-08 36 Recognizing Joe Ende for Five Years of Service to the City of Medina. Motion passed 37 unanimously. 38 39 VIII. NEW BUSINESS 40 41 A. Tamarack Drive and Highway 55 Intersection Street Visioning (7:11 p.m.) 42 Stremel stated that this corridor is located on Tamarack Drive from Meander to Highway 43 55 and from Highway 55 to Hamel Road. He stated that this study would provide 44 guidance related to transportation needs, such as right-of-way, utilities and other needs 45 as properties continue to develop. He stated that within the corridor are commercial 46 properties and property owned by the Wayzata School District. He noted that an 47 analysis similar to the Chippewa Road Study will be completed, with more detailed 48 analysis of the Highway 55 signal and a quiet zone review. He stated that more 49 meetings are proposed as well to meet with property owners and other applicable 50 stakeholders. 51 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 3 February 4, 2020 1 DesLauriers commented that it would be unfortunate to add another stoplight on 2 Highway 55. He asked if the four-year projection for the Wayzata School District was an 3 exact timeframe or estimate. 4 5 Stremel replied that was the best guess that the School District could provide but noted 6 that it a vague projection. 7 8 DesLauriers referenced alternative one, task one, related to observing other Wayzata 9 School District locations is a great suggestion to be able to more accurately plan for that 10 type of traffic. He asked if the Wayzata School District property has access onto 11 Highway 55. 12 13 Stremel replied that currently there is a small access. 14 15 Finke clarified that the property actually does not have frontage onto Highway 55. He 16 explained that the purpose of the study is to determine the future needs of the corridor 17 as the properties develop in order to plan and assess appropriately. 18 19 Anderson asked if it would be reasonable to share the cost with current landowners as 20 they will benefit from this work. 21 22 Pederson stated that the City would have to review what has been done in the past. 23 24 Johnson replied that in the past the City pays for this expense up front in order to 25 determine right-of-way needs and estimate future infrastructure costs. 26 27 Finke stated that there would be some complexities with attempting to share the cost for 28 the study. He explained that this method is a way in which the City can avoid having to 29 complete the improvements through a 429 project. 30 31 Batty stated that costs should be tracked in the case that this is a 429 project and then 32 the study could be included as soft costs for the overall project. 33 34 Anderson agreed that the City will be the largest benefactor of this study but noted that 35 other properties will also benefit from this information. 36 37 Barnhart explained how the costs would be tracked. 38 39 Pederson commented that he is glad to see the proactive efforts of staff to ensure the 40 City receives the necessary improvements and can plan accordingly. He recognized 41 that while it would not be ideal to add additional stoplights onto Highway 55, this is the 42 last retail node and that improvement may be necessary for access. 43 44 DesLauriers asked for additional input on whether the alternatives would be included. 45 46 Finke stated that the intention was not to include those alternatives but to do further 47 analysis, if desired, with the study. 48 49 Moved by Anderson, seconded by DesLauriers, to approve proposal for professional 50 planning and engineering services to complete a project development/visioning study for 51 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 4 February 4, 2020 the proposed Tamarack Drive corridor between Meander Road and Hamel Road, the 1 proposal will include tasks one through ten, not including alternates one and two which 2 may be added at a later date with Council approval. Motion passed unanimously. 3 4 IX. CITY ADMINISTRATOR REPORT (7:25 p.m.) 5 Johnson stated that he spoke with Anderson prior to the meeting, as Anderson and 6 Martin attended interviews for Fire Services Consultants. He reported that the City 7 received a fire services grant for $25,000. He reported that Matrix Consulting was the 8 top candidate after the interviews, noting that staff will bring forward that 9 recommendation for action at the next City Council meeting. 10 11 Pederson noted a concern with bringing the action forward that quickly, stating that he 12 feels that it would be fair to have the new Public Safety Director, Jason Nelson, to be 13 able to provide input and be a part of the process. He stated that Hamel Fire will also 14 elect a Chief in March and suggested acting in April. 15 16 Johnson reported that Sergeant Jason Nelson has been a part of the process and 17 included on all the discussions. He stated that the fire services study will help Medina 18 figure out the best way forward and outline options available to the City Council for fire 19 services. 20 21 DesLauriers noted that this item will be on the regular agenda, rather than Consent. He 22 noted that the grant funds will only cover a portion of the cost for the study. 23 24 Barnhart provided additional details on potential financing of the study. The total cost of 25 the fire services study is $42,000. Barnhart informed Council that $25,000 would be 26 paid by the State Fire Marshal’s Grant, $14,000 could be paid for from fire surplus from 27 2019, and the remaining $3,000 could be paid for from reserves or unallocated antenna 28 revenue. 29 30 Anderson stated that he is sympathetic to the comments made by Pederson and the 31 opportunity to perhaps let the dust settle. He noted that Pederson also will not be 32 available for the next Council meeting and feels it important to have all members of the 33 Council present for this next discussion on the study. He therefore suggested that the 34 item be delayed until the March Council meeting. 35 36 Johnson confirmed that the item could be placed on the regular City Council agenda for 37 the first meeting in March. 38 39 Pederson confirmed that he would attend that meeting. 40 41 Moved by Anderson, seconded by DesLauriers, to direct staff to place the fire services 42 study consultant item on the March 4th meeting agenda. Motion passed unanimously. 43 44 X. MAYOR & CITY COUNCIL REPORTS (7:31 p.m.) 45 DesLauriers commented on local events that he attended. 46 47 XI.

Gallup, City Clerk 14 MEMORANDUM TO: City Council, through City Administrator Scott Johnson FROM: Steve Scherer, Public Works Director DATE: February 13, 2020 MEETING DATE: February 18, 2020 SUBJECT: Weed Control and Fertilization Proposals Background The City sent out proposals for the 2020 & 2021 Weed Control and Fertilization Services to three companies. The proposal asked for two separate quotes, one for weed control and fertilization like prior years contracts and one for just weed control, where Public Works would complete the fertilization. Public Works is open to evaluating the current scope of services if the contractor has suggestions for changes due to professional experience that would ultimately reduce costs or be more environmentally friendly. The following two proposals were received: WEED CONTROL & FERTILIZATION EARLY SPRING LATE FALL TOTAL Jenco Property Maintenance $17,755 $17,755 $35,510 Adam’s Pest Control $12,959.55 $12,959.55 $25,919.10 The prices above also include the extra service at Hamel Legion Park in the early spring and late fall. WEED CONTROL ONLY EARLY SPRING LATE FALL TOTAL Jenco Property Maintenance $5,817 $5,817 $11,634 Adam’s Pest Control $7,099.30 $7,099.30 $14,198.60 The prices above exclude the extra service at Hamel Legion Park in the early spring and late fall. After receiving the following quotes, Public Works staff is recommending utilizing city equipment to complete the fertilization portion of the contract. The estimated cost of the fertilization will be $5,586 and 30 hours staff time. Jenco Property Maintenance has noted in their memo that they are open to reducing or eliminating the fall weed control if it is agreed upon by the city and the contractor that the change is warranted. The new contract will allow the flexibility to install best management practices into the program and reevaluate the process throughout the next few years. Recommendation Staff recommends accepting the weed control only portion of the quote from the Jenco Property Maintenance.

Belland, Director of Public Safety, Through City Administrator Scott Johnson DATE: February 13, 2020 RE: Officer Hiring Process On February 10th Justin Hanson started his new position with the Medina Police Department. His field training program is scheduled for the next 12 weeks. The second candidate that we had backgrounded did not pass our background process. We have looked at the remaining candidates on the eligibility list and determined that we would like to look at a different process. Sergeant Nelson and I have consulted with City Administrator Johnson and Assistant City Administrator Gallup on moving forward with an internal process. We have two internal employees who will be POST eligible as licensed Peace Officers in the next few months. We would like to hold an internal hiring process which includes interviews, background, physical and psychological exams. In the past, we have had many internal candidates become successful officers for our department. We have the advantage of seeing a work product and knowing their personalities prior to hiring. By doing this, it will slow the hiring process by a couple of months, but I think the wait will be worth it. Action Requested I would ask the City Council to allow us to open an internal hiring process to fill the open peace officer position.

MEMORANDUM TO: City Council, through City Administrator Scott Johnson FROM: Steve Scherer, Public Works Director and Dusty Finke, Planning Director DATE: February 12, 2020 MEETING: February 18,2020 City Council SUBJECT: Hackamore Road Design RFP Background For several years the City of Medina has been working with the City of Corcoran and discussing the future improvements of Hackamore Road. With the recent and future development occurring along the corridor, staff was directed by council to solicit proposals for the design of the future roadway. It is anticipated that the actual construction of Hackamore may occur in phases over a number of years, based upon when adjacent development occurs. Staff believes it is important to have an overall plan formed to help the cities require sufficient rights-of-way and easements and are able to require appropriate improvements by adjacent developers. The City Council included $100,000 for this work in the CIP for 2020. Funds were projected to come from the Road Fund for this work. Future construction is projected to be funded though a combination of road funds, developer contributions and, if necessary, bonding. Corcoran has indicated that it would like to consider improvements near County Road 101 as soon as 2021. The timing and funding of this project will be finalized as we get a better handle on the project during the design work. Proposals The cities sent a Request for Proposal (RFP) to WSB and Wenck, the primary engineering firm for each City. The RFP was for preparation of “30% design” and “75% design” for the entire corridor from County Road 101 to County Road 116 and extending through each intersection as necessary to make the improvements align. The work will not result in final plans and specifications, which will be prepared at the appropriate time for each phase of the project. The 30% design will help evaluate alternatives such as: 1) Two-lane design vs. three-lane (two-lanes with continuous left-turn) design 2) Trail location 3) Stormwater management locations The 75% design will set the table for approvals by relevant agencies (Watershed, Hennepin County). There will be future engineering costs with each phase, but staff believes completing the construction in phases at strategic times in the future will allow the cities to secure necessary right-of-way and easements and reduce the overall costs to the cities. Agenda Item # 8A Page 2 of 2 The proposals from the two firms are attached. Staff has excluded the resumes of the proposed team members and descriptions of the firms. If Council would like this information, please contact staff. The not-to-exceed cost proposals were: • WSB $117,696 • Wenck $154,724 Staff reviewed the proposals and was not able to identify significant differences in the description of the deliverables. WSB has estimated that it will be able to conduct the work in less hours. Because the responses appear similar in scope, staff from both cities are recommending that the proposal by WSB be approved. Staff recommends that Medina agree to be responsible for half of the expenses for the 30%/75% design as described in this proposal. The responsibility for future project costs will need to be discussed and negotiated in a future agreement with Corcoran, which this work will help to inform. Potential Action Move to approve the proposal from WSB for the 30% and 75% design work for the Hackamore Road Improvements and to equally split the costs of such 30% and 75% design work with the City of Corcoran.

C O M February 10, 2020 Mr. Dusty Finke Mr. Kevin Mattson City Planning Director Public Works Director City of Medina City of Corcoran 2052 County Rd 24 8200 County Rd 116 Medina, MN 55340 Corcoran, MN 55340 Re: City of Medina & City of Corcoran – Hackamore Road Improvement Project Proposal to Provide Engineering Services for 30% & 75% Design Services Dear Mr. Finke and Mr. Mattson: On behalf of WSB, we are pleased to present this proposal to provide professional engineering services to the cites of Medina and Corcoran. Specifically, our services will include the completion of both the 30% and 75% design for the Hackamore Road Street Improvement Project as described in the RFP. WSB has the staff and experience to complete all of the proposed services inhouse. The following letter proposal represents our entire understanding of the project scope and level of engineering services requested. WSB’s experience working for the City of Medina and our history of working with project stakeholders along similar project corridors in the area makes WSB the ideal candidate to complete the Hackamore Road Improvement Project. WSB has successfully assisted the City of Medina in implementing public infrastructure projects for many years and project team members have led multiple projects that have required coordination with the City of Plymouth, MnDOT, and Hennepin County. We will support Medina and Corcoran in their efforts to coordinate project completion at all levels. PROJECT UNDERSTANDING The City of Corcoran and the City of Medina agree that Hackamore Road reconstruction is warranted and requires detailed design/engineering services. The Cities are requesting engineering design services that include both 30% and 75% levels of completion. The project will include the development of two design alternatives for the roadway, trail, and intersection control up to 30% at which time the Cities will decide to proceed with one of the alternatives for the 75% design which will include stormwater management elements, and refined road/trail design. Based on the information provided, the Cities are currently planning to phase construction with the easterly half proceeding first. The proposed project consists of reconstructing Hackamore Road generally from CSAH 101 to CSAH 116 including both county intersections, approaches in each direction, and the following: • The easterly extent will include that portion of CR 47 as it enters the City of Plymouth for turn lane or other approach modifications. • The project will also extend west of CSAH 116 to the intersection of Medina Lake Drive and Hackamore Road. This portion will include the relocation of the trail if the roadway is expanded in this location. • The proposed trail location is on the north side of Hackamore Road and extends beyond street right-of-way in some locations. • No watermain or sanitary sewer reconstruction or extension will be included with this scope of work. City of Corcoran & City of Medina – Hackamore Road Improvement Project – Proposal for 30% & 75% Engineering Design Services February 10, 2020 Page 2 • The decision to assess property owners will be made after the 75% design is complete and so a feasibility study is not included with this scope of work. The proposed geometric layout and design should include the following: • Rural roadway section. • Two geometric alternatives designed to a 30% level for both a three-lane design with a dedicated middle right/left turn lane and a two-lane design with dedicated left turns at a minimum of two intersections. • Include an evaluation of State Aid geometric standards, solve the vertical curve issue on the east end of the project limits, and identify geometric variances due to existing utilities or other impacts. • Consider the need for left and right turn lanes on Hackamore Road at CSAH 116 and CR 101 as well as impacts to Hackamore Road if Hennepin County constructs the north/south turn lanes off CR 116 and 101. • Evaluate the ideal road footprint based on the existing right of way and utility relocation costs. • The proposed trail on the north side of Hackamore Road will be 8-feet in width and utilize ditch drainage. To the greatest extent possible the trail alignment should avoid utilities, wetlands, and minimize property impacts. Work Items Completed to Date Based on the information provided in the RFP, WSB understands the following items have been completed and will be provided upon authorization to proceed: • Soil borings and a geotechnical evaluation. • A wetland delineation and report. • A partial topographic survey and AutoCAD base-mapping for the areas that include data for the areas in between CR 116 and CR 101, but generally limited to the existing ROW. The survey also does not include the intersections of Hackamore/101, Hackamore/116, and the road corridor west of CR 116. • The preliminary 3-lane layout and linework in AutoCAD format. As requested in the RFP, the proposed scope of engineering services detailed in this proposal will include the following in summary: 30% Design • 30% level of design and cost estimating for the road, trail, and intersection control at both County signal locations. • Traffic analysis with roadway configuration recommendations. • Topographic survey for remaining areas and base-map updates in an AutoCAD format. • Public involvement including one community engagement activity and one City Council meeting with each of the cities (total of two meetings). • Project meetings with the staff of both Cities (simultaneous) including one for a kick-off and one every other week (total of six meetings). • Two large stakeholder meetings that include Hennepin County, Plymouth, Medina, and Corcoran. • Pre-application meeting with the watershed. • Utility coordination meeting and on-site meeting, if necessary. • Road/trail design and stormwater management memoranda. 75% Design • 75% level of design and cost estimating for the road, trail, stormwater management, and both County signal locations. • Provide a set of 75% level plans. • One City Council meeting with each of the cities (total of two meetings) City of Corcoran & City of Medina – Hackamore Road Improvement Project – Proposal for 30% & 75% Engineering Design Services February 10, 2020 Page 3 • Project meetings with the staff of both Cities (simultaneous) every other week (total of four meetings). • Additional pre-application meetings with relevant agencies, if needed. • Road and trail memoranda. SCOPE OF SERVICES FOR TASK 1 (30% DESIGN) The following is a list of deliverables needed to complete the engineering and design components of the project at a 30% level of design. Upon authorization of the proposal, we will begin immediately by gathering private utility data, conducting a topographic survey, reviewing public/private utility record drawings, and other available information. The information gathered will be used as a basis for the design efforts detailed in this proposal. Project management is a key component included in each task as proposed. Within each task and deliverable, project coordination and communication with the cities, residents, other project stakeholders, and the project team will be critical for success. Active project management and utilization of project controls will allow for open lines of communication and routine updates on project issues, as well as keeping the project on schedule and within budget. Deliverable No. 1 (Engineering Plans & Cost Estimate) 30% Geometric Layout & Plan Development This task includes a 30% geometric layout and design based upon staff input and general engineering judgment. The preliminary layout in CAD format will be a representation of preliminary horizontal alignments with potential construction limits shown along with possible construction conflicts of the proposed improvements. We will work together with City staff members during the preliminary design task to determine the most cost-effective means and methods of designing and constructing the proposed street, trail, and storm sewer improvements. Team communication is essential during this phase to develop a clear understanding and expectations of the scope of work the ensure the final design phase can be completed efficiently and effectively. Our team includes staff with industry leading experience in roadway geometrics and State Aid design criteria. Their expertise will be utilized to develop the roadway and trial layouts. Based on the results of the traffic analysis, WSB will prepare a preliminary intersection control/signal design plan. This will include preparation of a preliminary geometric layout of each intersection showing the existing conditions and proposed changes to the intersection components. These layouts will be used to determine the estimated improvement costs, utility conflicts and relocations, and will be the basis for the final design plans. WSB understands that no sanitary sewer is planned within Hackamore Road, and that the City of Corcoran will consider constructing watermain along the north side of Hackamore Road but is not included with this scope of work. 30% Cost Estimating WSB will prepare preliminary project cost estimates (both alternatives) for the proposed street, trail, intersection control (signal) improvements, stormwater management components, and associated overhead allotments. Project financing will come from both the City of Corcoran and the City of Medina, but at this time no decision has been made as to whether State Aid funding will be utilized. City of Corcoran & City of Medina – Hackamore Road Improvement Project – Proposal for 30% & 75% Engineering Design Services February 10, 2020 Page 4 Miscellaneous Tasks Included with Deliverable No. 1 Private Utility & GSOC Coordination This task will include the coordination of utility markings for the topographic survey, a separate Gopher State One Call request for utility maps, and coordination with specific utility companies that may have conflicts with the proposed street and storm sewer installations. If potholing in the field is necessary to determine the elevation of specific utility lines, WSB will coordinate this effort, but the City will be responsible for contracting with a company or providing staff that can complete this work. WSB will hold a formal utility coordination meeting with the affected utility providers and any necessary meetings in the field to discuss specific impacts, if needed. Topographic Survey & Base-Mapping Updates A design level topographic survey will be completed for the remaining project areas detailed in the RFP to identify surficial information/landmarks, existing grades, property corners/lines, and public/private utility locations. It is our understanding that an extensive topographic survey was completed in 2019 up to and including the road right of way, which will be provided to WSB upon authorization to proceed (not provided with RFP). We are assuming that the topography files have sufficient control; a review of the survey control and quality of data in the AutoCAD drawing will be completed to determine what additional topographic survey needs may be required beyond the scope of work described in this proposal and information provided in the RFP. The final AutoCAD base-mapping information will not constitute an official boundary survey, but a high-quality survey grade right-of-way/parcel map will be created using available plat maps and existing field survey shots that can be used for easement acquisition. The cost of document fees for official plats or easement has not been included with this proposal. The overall task will include obtaining record plan information from the Cities on the location and potential conflicts with other utilities, finalizing an AutoCAD base map for the purposes of preliminary/final design, notification of private utility companies within the project corridor, and any other related information for the area that may impact design or future construction. The scope of surveying services does not include the preparation of temporary/permanent easement parcel sketches, legal descriptions, or field staking of easements for the properties where the proposed improvements may be located. Right of way or easement acquisition services have also not been included with this scope of work. Preliminary Stormwater Management Design WSB will design the storm sewer system and required stormwater best management practices (BMPs) for the proposed Hackamore Road improvements in accordance with both city and Elm Creek Watershed Management Commission’s (ECWMC’s) design requirements. The services within this task include preliminary stormwater modelling, preliminary stormwater BMP design, and coordination with the appropriate governing authorities as needed. The proposed BMP’s will require permitting through the Elm Creek Watershed Management Commission. One pre- application meeting with ECWMC has been included with the scope of work. Environmental Review A review of the environmental components of the project will also be performed to determine the extent of anticipated impacts with respect to wetlands and floodplains, if applicable. WSB will initiate discussion with the ECWMC to discuss permitting requirements for these impacts. Our team has extensive experience working with the various regulatory agencies on linear projects and this experience will streamline the permitting process. Traffic Analysis To assist the Cities in the decision-making process, a traffic analysis will be completed within the Hackamore corridor and adjacent roadways as necessary. The work will include the following: City of Corcoran & City of Medina – Hackamore Road Improvement Project – Proposal for 30% & 75% Engineering Design Services February 10, 2020 Page 5 Background Data / Existing Conditions: Available traffic data will be collected from the City of Medina, City of Corcoran, Hennepin County and other impacted agencies. This data will include, but is not limited to: • Existing and historic traffic volume data. • Current crash history. • Proposed and anticipated area development plans. • Other available studies. It is assumed that existing traffic volume data will be used as the baseline to conduct the traffic analysis, and that no additional traffic counts would be required. The existing turning movement counts will be developed based on the available data or estimated traffic based on the current development in the area. Traffic Forecasts: Projected 2040 ADT and turning movement counts will be developed based on the current City (Medina and Corcoran) and Hennepin County Transportation Plans. The projected traffic at each specific intersection will be based on traffic generation for the proposed development and/or anticipated land use in the area, the historical traffic count trends for the area, or other assumptions that can be assembled from available data. Traffic Operations Analysis: A traffic analysis will be completed, evaluating the existing and projected traffic operations for the Hackamore Road corridor, including the five primary intersections of CSAH 116 (Pinto Drive), Hackamore Circle, Hunter Road, Bergamot Drive/Steeple Chase Road and CSAH 101. The traffic operations will be evaluated using Synchro/SimTraffic software for the signal and stop sign analysis. Output from Synchro is transferred to SimTraffic, a micro-simulation computer modeling software that simulates each individual vehicle’s characteristics and driver behavior in response to traffic volumes, intersection configuration, and signal operations. The model simulates drivers’ behaviors and responses to surrounding traffic flow as well as different vehicle types and speeds. Its outputs estimated vehicle delay and queue lengths at each intersection being analyzed. The capacity and level of service analysis will be conducted for the existing 2020 and projected 2040 traffic conditions. The analysis will document the corridor level of service, intersection level of service, any operational deficiencies, and recommendations for intersection control and lane configuration improvements (addition of left and/or right turn lanes) at each intersection. The results of the Traffic Analysis will be included in the project memorandum prepared for the 30% design phase. The preparation of an official intersection control evaluation (ICE) report and/or roundabout justification analyses for the intersection(s) has not been included. Public Engagement & Stakeholder Involvement WSB will hold project meetings with the Cities and other stakeholders throughout the design process to ensure the final product meets the intended need. The meetings will include one kick-off meeting with both City staff members upon authorization of the proposal, six progress/design meetings with both Cities (simultaneously) approximately every two weeks, two City Council meetings (one with each city), one community engagement activity with affected residents or other stakeholders, and two stakeholder meetings that include Hennepin County, the City of Plymouth, as well as the Cities of Medina and Corcoran. WSB will provide the necessary graphics, maps, and presentation materials to be used at the public engagement activity and project meetings. We will work with the City staff members to develop and mail the required notices for project meetings, and prepare any necessary resolutions for City Council meetings, if needed. WSB can provide a formatted notice to be sent to property owners or other stakeholders, but the City will mail the notices using City stationary. City of Corcoran & City of Medina – Hackamore Road Improvement Project – Proposal for 30% & 75% Engineering Design Services February 10, 2020 Page 6 WSB also has visualization software that can transform traditional mapping into an intuitive user experience. Here is one example of the capabilities we can provide: https://bit.ly/2RVBlxJ. If the Cities would like to use this for public or stakeholder engagement, we can provide this service upgrade for a very reasonable cost. Deliverable No. 2 (Road Memorandum) WSB will prepare a memorandum that incorporates the design alternatives, a discussion of project challenges, quantities/costs, and various figures that describe the following: • Alignment modifications and justifications. • Road wetland impact plan. • Potential changes for traffic signals or other intersection control, if necessary. • Road stormwater management concept footprints. • Utility locations and potential relocations needs. • State Aid design compliance and those items that may not be compliant. • Identify deficiencies such as private utility locations, clear zones, and other critical geometric elements (i.e. vertical curves) that may affect the design or construction of the project. • Road “parcel impact plan” for wetlands, stormwater, utility relocates, showing each individual parcel impacted. • Traffic analysis findings. Deliverable No. 3 (Trail Memorandum) WSB will prepare a memorandum for the proposed trail improvements, with similar components as the Road Memorandum in Deliverable No. 2 but will exclude any State Aid design compliance. The final version of both reports will incorporate any comments received from City staff members and include a presentation of the report to the appropriate City Councils. SCOPE OF SERVICES FOR TASK 2 (75% DESIGN) The following is a list of deliverables needed to complete the engineering and design components of the project at a 75% level of design. As noted in Task 1, project management is a key component included in each task as proposed. Final plans and specifications will be prepared for the project. Specific work included with this task will be development of final project documents, stormwater management and permitting, construction plans, and specifications/contacts for bidding. Deliverable No. 1 (Engineering Plans & Cost Estimate) 75% Geometric Layout & Plan Development We will work together with City staff during the final design task to determine any further cost saving means and methods of designing and constructing the proposed street, trail, and storm sewer. The final design and plans will detail the improvements of the one final alternative, including the pavement section, centerline elevations for curb replacement, removals and restoration, erosion/sediment control, plan/profiles for storm sewer improvements, signing/striping plans, cross sections at each 0+50 station interval, and a SWPPP narrative. WSB will also refine signal design plans as needed with the 75% plan development. This will include preparation of a preliminary geometric layout of each intersection showing the existing conditions and proposed changes to the location of poles and mast arms, vehicle detection systems, pedestrian pushbutton and indications, pedestrian curb ramps and landings, source of power locations, and City of Corcoran & City of Medina – Hackamore Road Improvement Project – Proposal for 30% & 75% Engineering Design Services February 10, 2020 Page 7 interconnect system locations. These layouts will be used to determine the estimated improvement costs, utility conflicts and relocations, and will be the basis for the final design plans. The 75% plans will not be prepared to strict State Aid standards but will be prepared in a way that accommodates a relatively smooth conversion, if needed, during final design. Temporary traffic control, standard details, lighting, landscaping, or preparation of other plans not listed have not been included with the scope of services. The preparation of technical specifications or other contract documents are not included with this scope of work. 75% Cost Estimating WSB will prepare project cost estimates for the one final alternative including the proposed street, trail, intersection control (signal) improvements, stormwater management components, and associated overhead allotments. Stormwater Management Design & Permitting WSB will provide design services for the storm sewer system and BMPs for the proposed Hackamore Road improvements in accordance with the City and ECWMC’s design requirements. The services within this task include stormwater modelling, stormwater BMP design, and coordination with the appropriate governing authorities as needed. The proposed pond design and location will be determined, and the appropriate permitting documents will be prepared for submittal to the Elm Creek Watershed Management Commission. ECWMC Stormwater Management Requirements for the project are as follows: • A stormwater management plan is required for any land development that disturbs more than one acre of land. • Linear projects that create one acre or more of new impervious must meet all commission requirements for the net new impervious surface. • Runoff rates for proposed conditions must not increase from existing conditions for the 2- year, 10-year and 100-year critical storm events. • Stormwater runoff volume must be infiltrated in the amount equivalent to 1.1” of runoff from new impervious surface. It is assumed that infiltration will not be feasible based on prevalence of clay soils within Medina. Biofiltration Volume credit towards compliance may be achieved by various options outlined in the ECWMC rules and standards. • No net increase in total phosphorus (TP) or total suspended solids (TSS). This task does include the preparation of the erosion/sediment control plan sheets but does not include the written narrative of a Stormwater Pollution Prevention Plan (SWPPP). This is typically incorporated into the plans after 75% plans are developed. Miscellaneous Tasks Included with Deliverable No. 1 Stakeholder Involvement WSB will hold project meetings with the Cities and other stakeholders throughout the design process to ensure the final product meets the intended need. The meetings will include four progress/design meetings with both Cities (simultaneously) approximately every two weeks and two city council meetings (one with each city). If needed, additional pre-application meetings will be held with relevant agencies. WSB will provide the necessary graphics, maps, and presentation materials to be used at the public engagement activity and project meetings. We will work with the city staff members to develop and mail the required notices for project meetings, and prepare any necessary resolutions for City Council meetings, if needed. WSB can provide a formatted notice to be sent to property owners or other stakeholders, but the City will mail the notices using City stationary. City of Corcoran & City of Medina – Hackamore Road Improvement Project – Proposal for 30% & 75% Engineering Design Services February 10, 2020 Page 8 WSB has excellent working relationships with the regulatory agencies and plans early and frequent communication in order to keep the permitting process on schedule. At least one in-person meeting with the affected agencies (ECWMC and USACE) will be held to review the project and impact applications. Coordination of wetland mitigation and related permit preparation/submittals is not included with this scope of work. Deliverable No. 2 (Memorandums) Road/Trail Memorandum WSB will prepare a final memorandum that incorporates the 75% design alternative, a discussion of project challenges, quantities/costs, and any necessary figures, similar to the information in Task 2. An analysis of potential assessments for the project has not been included with this scope of services, but the report could be used as the basis for a feasibility study if either City decides to proceed with the MN Chapter 429 special assessment process at a later date. Stormwater Management Memorandum WSB will prepare a memorandum for the proposed stormwater management improvements, incorporating the elements needed for permitting with the ECWMC (approximately 75% level of design). The ECWMC permit application will also be completed, but any associated fees for submittal are not included with this scope of work. It is assumed that preparation of the hydraulic report for submittal to State Aid will be completed during the final design phase of this project (pending the decision to complete the project to State Aid Standards) therefore, this service has not been included with this scope of work. The final version of both reports will incorporate any comments received from City staff members and include a presentation of the report to the appropriate City Councils. Quality Control Within all tasks of this project, WSB will implement plan review and quality assurance/quality control procedures and protocols for the proposed design and plans. This will provide the client with a high level of plan/document quality and future constructability. City of Corcoran & City of Medina – Hackamore Road Improvement Project – Proposal for 30% & 75% Engineering Design Services February 10, 2020 Page 9 OPTIONAL SERVICES NOT INCLUDED Additional Traffic Counts In order to provide a more accurate traffic analysis, updated traffic volume data would be collected for the Hackamore Road corridor including directional average daily traffic (ADT) counts and peak hour turning movement counts at the intersections of: • Hackamore Rd at CSAH 116 (Pinto Dr) • Hackamore Rd at Hackamore Cir • Hackamore Rd at Hunter Rd • Hackamore Rd at Bergamot Dr/Steeple Chase Rd • Hackamore Rd at CSAH 101 The updated volumes will be used as the baseline for the existing and projected 2040 traffic analysis. The additional cost to perform this work is $2,994. Wetland Impact Permitting WSB will prepare permit applications and obtain permits from the following agencies, as needed: • Elm Creek Watershed Management Commission • Wetland Conservation Act (City of Medina and City of Corcoran) • US Army Corps of Engineers • Board of Water and Soil Resources (for Local Road Wetland Replacement Program, if applicable) WSB reviewed the DNR Public Waters Inventory maps and no DNR Public Waters or Watercourses are located within the project corridor. No DNR Public Waters permits are anticipated for this project. Permits will be needed for construction dewatering, if applicable, but will be the responsibility of the construction contractor to obtain. To prepare the applications, WSB will develop a purpose and need, evaluate project alternatives, and create impact exhibits. If the project qualifies for the BWSR Local Road Wetland Replacement Program, WSB will develop the information for that approval as well. If the project impacts do not qualify, WSB will identify wetland banks that meet the siting criteria for WCA and the USACE Section 404 permit. Upon approval of permits, WSB will review permit conditions and inform the city of any conditions prior to construction. The additional cost to perform this work is $4,908. Right-Of-Way Acquisition/Coordination Our right of way group has extensive experience acquiring right of way for cities, counties, MnDOT and outstate DOT’s as well. These acquisitions were completed on a variety of types of properties including residential, commercial, industrial, agricultural and recreational land. We can also assist both Cities with the preparation of temporary/permanent easement parcel sketches, legal descriptions, or field staking of easements for the properties where the proposed improvements may be located. Our approach on all our projects is to treat the owners respectfully, listen to their concerns and work to address them, if possible, without compromising the needs and integrity of the project schedule. A determination of the scope of this work can be determined once the affected parcels are identified.

This proposal is in alignment with the proposal format as outlined in the RFQ issued by the Cities in an email dated January 29th, 2020. Wenck Associates, Inc. (Wenck) is very familiar with the corridor and with linear transportation project in this area. Wenck has completed 11 transportation projects in Corcoran since 2013 (see Attachment 1: Recent Project Figure). For Hackamore Road specifically, Wenck has conducted two feasibility studies for large developments that involved traffic counts and analysis, two EAWs, and associated stormwater analysis for subwatersheds that either drain north into Corcoran from Medina (west of Steeple Chase Road) or drain from Corcoran into Medina (east of Steeple Chase Road). Specific Hackamore tasks already completed by Wenck include concept layouts, surveying, and wetland delineations along the corridor. Costs are presented in detail, and no expenses are typically charged to City-led projects in Corcoran (no travel time and no mileage) since Wenck is a local firm. Should you have questions or need clarification of any items presented in the attached proposal, please do not hesitate to contact Kent Torve at ktorve@wenck.com or 612.209.7919.

ATTACHMENT 3: PROJECT UNDERSTANDING AND APPROACH PROJECT UNDERSTANDING & APPROACH 1 Project Components This Project Understanding and Approach describes the necessary tasks, level of effort, and budget to complete 30% and 75% design documents for the purpose of designing the Hackamore Road Project. The following features will make up the design components of the project. A detailed Budget is provided in Attachment 4 to this proposal and Key Project Members and an Organizational Chart is provided in Attachment 5. Road Hackamore Road is the westerly extension of County Road 47 (in Plymouth) and extends west of CSAH 116. The majority of roadway to be reconstructed is within the CR 101 and CSAH 116 boundaries, along with both County intersections, tapers as necessary to align intersection approaches, and potential north/south turn lane design as determined by the County. West of CSAH 116 the project ends at Medina Lake Drive, and east of CR 101 the design would end on CR 47 with taper/intersection alignment. Trail A trail will run parallel to the newly constructed Hackamore Road. The trail will likely be located along the north side of the roadway and require additional ROW or easement. The trail is currently thought to be incorporated with a rural cross section but will be reviewed to determine if a grade separated trail adjacent to the roadway is a beneficial alternative, for selected portions of the trail, or its entirety. Signals Analysis of existing layout, salvageable portions, and up to 75% design of any signal modifications at both County intersections are included in the scope. Traffic Analysis Traffic counts will be made in accordance with the scope, and analyzed along with forecasts for Reserve of Medina for analysis on left turns, right turns and stacking at the intersections of CSAH 116 and CR 101. Comparison will also be made to County requirements and other guidance available. Stormwater Stormwater management is increasing in complexity for linear projects and will affect the project area for required treatment of impervious. The necessary management methods, locations, and areas will be addressed. Exclusions Notable exclusions from this scope include wetland permitting, CH 429 process (if any), City water and sewer, design work beyond 75%, construction administration and management. As noted above only one design is assumed to be advanced beyond the 30% design phase. PROJECT SCOPE 2 TASK 1—30% ROAD AND TRAIL DESIGN SCOPE Wenck’s Project Approach is based on the tasks identified in the RFP with slight modifications as noted. 1.0 Project Meetings Coordination with the several groups including residents, small utilities, Hennepin County, and neighboring communities, etc. are critical to a successful project in this complex location. This task includes group meetings as identified in RFP Task 1, and the order would be as follows: • Kickoff meeting with City staff • Group meeting No. 1 • Small utility meeting As the 30% design is nearly complete the meetings that will be conducted include: • City staff • Group meeting No. 2 • Community engagement open house • Council meetings • Pre-application meeting with the Elm Creek Watershed Other City staff meetings can be held at cities request. However the compressed schedule of being at a 75% design by July (assuming a March award and kickoff) suggests that the meetings identified in the list above would be sufficient. 1.1 Traffic Study Collecting background traffic data will be important to be used in comparing two roadway layouts developed at the 30% stage as well as when reviewing intersection layouts. The following tasks will be conducted as part of the traffic study. • Collect current volume data. We will collect weekday a.m. and p.m. peak period turn movement volumes at the following intersections: • CR 116/Hackamore Road • Hackamore Road/Hunter Road • Hackamore Road/Steeple Chase Lane • CSAH 101/Hackamore Road • Develop traffic forecasts. We will develop weekday a.m. and p.m. peak hour trip generation estimates and traffic volumes to account for future development in the area. • Complete traffic analysis. The traffic analyses will focus on the need for left turn lanes on Hackamore Road. The traffic forecasts will be used in discussions with the Cities for selecting a design at the completion of the 30% phase. PROJECT SCOPE 3 • Prepare technical memo. We will prepare a technical memo that documents the traffic analyses and results. We will share the draft with team members for review and comment. We will update the report as necessary to respond to comments and then submit our report in finished form. 1.2 30% Traffic Signal Design Once the traffic study is completed, Wenck will then be able to develop 30% designs on the traffic signal systems. Included in this work is; • Obtain pertinent background information. Items that we need and will obtain include information for the existing traffic signal components and the proposed intersection layouts in AutoCAD format. • 30% Traffic signal design. This task is to prepare the preliminary layout for the traffic signal. The following specific tasks will be performed: • Review the existing signal plan information • Review proposed intersection layouts • Determine placement locations for new traffic signal equipment • Discuss draft signal layout with City and County staff • Develop preliminary construction cost estimate 1.3 30% Roadway Design The 30% design includes the analysis of a three lane continuous road and a two lane roadway with turn lanes at designated locations. The two lane design has left hand turns at: • Reserve of Medina (future); • Steeple Chase Lane; and • Potential others based on traffic analysis. The purpose of the 30% design and cost estimate is to allow the cities to make a determination on final design prior to entering into a joint city agreement. State Aid geometrics will be reviewed and presented for vertical curves, utility variances, etc. Wenck recognizes that State Aid funds are not being utilized, however State Aid design criteria will be reviewed and used as a guide for the 30% design phase. In summary, the roadway layouts will be reviewed to take into account the current Right of Way, geometric constraints, utility conflicts and wetland impacts. This design set will be prepared for the purpose of developing an accurate set of plans from which issues identified during the 30% phase of the project can be processed. From this, both cities will have a more detailed design to review with their staff’s and council’s and provide any input on before the 75% design phase. Survey information was completed previously for the project however, Wenck has assumed that additional topographic information will be needed to fully complete the scope. Wenck assumes that any ROE’s necessary to perform topographic survey will be coordinated by the city and will be obtained prior to initiating survey so it can be completed in one round. Deliverable No. 1 - Engineering Plans and Cost Estimates The road design effort for the two alternatives will include: • Review of existing information such as Ravinia Feasibility Study and EAW, Wessel area Feasibility Study and EAW, Hackamore preliminary concept plan, wetland delineation, and historical drainage problems along the corridor; PROJECT SCOPE 4 • Topographic survey and utility locates; • Two lane layout with select left turn lanes; • Three lane layout; • Trail on north side; • Traffic counts and analysis; • Signal analysis and 30% layout. Signal design will be discussed in the group meeting and also coordinated directly with the County; and • Cost estimates for the layouts and alternatives as detailed. Deliverable No. 2 - Road Memorandum A joint city project requires additional distribution of information (as compared to a project within a city limits where staff, engineering, residents and Council are within one municipality) along with supporting documents for each municipality to make a decision on the final roadway layout. Therefore the memorandum will present the items listed in the RFP with text to describe the various design decisions, challenges and possible solutions. A draft Table of Contents would consist of: • Background/Introduction • Existing conditions, drainage, utilities, signal conditions, and wetlands • Alternative 1 and Alternative 2 Design summaries • Impact comparisons • State Aid geometric review • Public Input Summary • Neighboring community and Hennepin County summary • Property impacts (draft) • Stormwater needs and impacts (draft) • Traffic analysis and other turn lane guidance • Cost estimate and assumptions • Appendices of supporting information. This deliverable will be significant in detail and allow the two cities to review and move forward towards a final agreement on road layout and cost. Deliverable No. 3 – Trail Memorandum A standalone memorandum for the trail corridor along the north side of Hackamore will be also distributed. The RFP lists the same items as the Road Memorandum except will exclude several items not specific to the trail discussion including State Aid, traffic analysis, signals, public input summary and adjacent City and County comments. As with the Road Memorandum the document will be sufficient in detail to allow the cities to move towards an agreement. PROJECT PAUSE After the 30% deliverable are distributed there will be a slight project pause as the cities review the alternates and move towards an agreement. However with 75% plans required by July, it can be noted that the 75% schedule could be delayed based on city discussions and timelines. PROJECT SCOPE 5 TASK 2 — 75% ROAD AND TRAIL DESIGN WITH STORMWATER Wenck’s Project Approach is based on the tasks identified in the RFP. At this phase of the project, Wenck assumes that the two cities have come to a formalized agreement and selected one of the two roadway approaches (three lane vs two lane with select turn lanes) from which to proceed with 75% drawing documents. 2.0 Project Meetings Coordination for the project is more “internal” within the cities and between the cities at this portion of the project. The design has been selected, and the councils will be updated and other agencies will be kept up-to-date on the project during a pre- application meeting. The following meetings are included in this scope of work: • City meetings • Project team meetings (assumed 3 team meetings with representatives of each city present) • One meeting with relevant agencies for permitting and approvals. 2.1 Signal Design This task is to prepare draft plan sheets for the traffic signal. The following specific tasks will be performed: • Review the City and County comments on the preliminary layout • Update the layout • Initiate draft signal design plan sheets • Discuss updated signal layout with City and County staff • Develop updated construction cost estimate 2.2 Roadway Design Wenck will develop a stormwater design which meets applicable regulatory requirements for the project. This design will address runoff from the roadway, including trails and intersections. Included in this work will be review of any wetland impacts associated with project layout. Stormwater calculations will be completed to a stage that is sufficient for watershed and WCA permitting. The roadway plans will include the following sheets: • Title Sheet • Typical Sections • Existing Conditions • Removals • Site Plans • Plan and Profiles • Stormwater Plans • Erosion Control/Site Stabilization Plans • Signage and Striping Plans • Cross Sections PROJECT SCOPE 6 Standard details, temporary traffic control plans, and a SWPPP NPDES narrative are not included in this scope of work. Deliverable No. 1 - Engineering Plans and Cost Estimates The road design effort for this task will include: • Selected 75% plans for the design o Wenck assumes for this phase plans will be sufficient to accurately represent project design and will include all components which would be expected for property acquisition and utility relocates typical of a linear plan set. • Signal design/layout (final design at the construction document phase) • Stormwater analysis, modeling, and property impacts o Stormwater analysis will be sufficient for project permitting • Wetland final impact plan and sufficient detail for WCA permitting • Cost estimates Deliverable No. 2 - Memorandum Summary memorandum will include final design layout, some discussion of the selection of the road alternative, and more detailed discussion on wetlands and stormwater. Wenck will provide the stormwater narrative as an Appendix with a summary in the text, this Appendix can be used as a standalone document for the stormwater permit application (with slight modifications as 100% plans are developed).

The plat proposes to increase the size of the main lot and decrease the size of the outlot to the north. The Planning Commission held a public hearing at the December 10 meeting and recommended approval. The City Council reviewed at the January 7 meeting and directed staff to prepare documents. Staff is in discussions with OSI about improvements to Arrowhead Drive and will present approval documents when complete. B) Adam’s Pest Control Site Plan Review, Pre Plat, Rezoning – Jan-Har, LLP (dba Adam’s Pest Control) has requested various approvals for development of a 35,000 s.f. office building, restaurant, and 13,000 s.f. warehouse/repair shop north of Highway 55, west of Willow Drive (PIDs 04-118-23-21-0001 and 04-118-23-24-0001). The Planning Commission held a public hearing at the November 12 meeting and recommended approval. The City Council reviewed on December 3 and directed staff to prepare documents for approval. Staff has been working with the adjacent property owner to secure right-of-way for the frontage road to Willow Drive. Approval documents will be presented after discussions are complete. C) Mark of Excellence Comp Plan Amendment, PUD Concept Plan – east of Mohawk Drive, north of Highway 55 – Mark Smith (Mark of Excellence Homes) has requested a Comp Plan Amendment and PUD Concept Plan for development of 76 twinhomes, 41 single- family, and 32 townhomes on the Roy and Cavanaugh properties. The Planning Commission held a public hearing at the October 8 meeting. A number of residents provided written comment and one spoke in opposition of the amendment. Following the hearing, the Planning Commission voted 4-2 to recommend denial of the Comprehensive Plan Amendment. The Council reviewed and tabled the request at the November 6 meeting to allow for a neighborhood meeting, which was held on January 20. The applicant has indicated March 4 as the tentative date to return to the City Council. D) Roehl Preliminary Plat – 1735 Medina Road – The Estate of Robert Roehl has requested a preliminary plat to subdivide 28 acres into two lots. The application is currently incomplete and will be scheduled for a hearing when necessary information is submitted. E) Cates Ranch Comp Plan Amendment and Rezoning – 2575 and 2590 Cates Ranch Drive – Robert Atkinson has requested a change of the future land use from Future Development Area to Business, a staging plan amendment to 2020, and a rezoning to Business Park. Staff is conducting a preliminary review. F) Johnson ADU CUP, Hamel Brewery, St. Peter and Paul Cemetery – The City Council has adopted resolutions approving these projects, and staff is assisting the applicants with the conditions of approval in order to complete the projects. G) Hamel Haven subdivisions – These subdivisions have received final approval. Staff is working with the applicants on the conditions of approval before the plats are recorded. Planning Department Update Page 2 of 2 February 18, 2020 City Council Meeting Other Projects A) Tamarack Drive study – Council directed staff to proceed with the Tamarack Drive study at their February 4 meeting. WSB hosted a kick-off meeting and is beginning to set up meetings with relevant agencies. Staff if reaching out to meet with property owners. Staff is aiming for early April for a public engagement activity. B) Hackamore Road Preliminary Design – staff has received proposals from WSB and Wenck for the design work for Hackamore. WSB is the lowest cost proposal, and will be presented to the Council for approval on February 18. C) Residential Garage Requirements – staff met with a developer considering a townhome project in the City. The developer noted that the City requires each townhome to have a 440 square foot garage, which they indicated did not seem common, and would not be marketable. Staff has collected information and recommended a reduction in the size requirement for townhomes. The Planning Commission held a public hearing and discussed on February 11. The Commission voted 4-3 to recommend approval of the ordinance reducing the minimum size and making other changes. Three Commissioners did not support the reduction in garage size. Staff intends to present the ordinance at the March 4 Council meeting. D) Planning Commission Orientation – staff met with new Planning Commissioner Ron Grajcyk for orientation. We look forward to working with Ron! E) Inclusionary Housing presentation – I attended a presentation from staff from Bloomington and St. Louis Park related to their Inclusionary Housing requirements. The cities require developers to provide some amount of affordable units (7-10% of units) in certain development scenarios (especially when city financing or Comp Plan Amendments are involved). TO: City Council FROM: Edgar J. Belland, Director of Public Safety, Through City Administrator Scott Johnson DATE: February 13, 2020 RE: Police Department Updates Officer Justin Hanson Joins Medina Police Justin Hanson joined the Medina Police Department on February 10, 2020. He will be backfilling the officer position for the officer that is promoted to the Sergeant’s position. Fire Grant I was notified by the Fire Marshal’s Office that they will have the signature documents for the City to sign in the next two weeks. I informed them that it will be on the March 4th council agenda for approval. Cloquet Fire Area District Trip On February 10th we took a field trip to the Cloquet Fire Department to learn about their fire district. The information we received was worth the trip. Ten years ago, the City of Cloquet stated they could not continue the fire model they were using; they needed to change the system to continue to supply the quality of service to their city. They brought in a consultant and started discussions on a fire district. It started out with two departments, and today they have five departments and cover over 240 square miles. Please see the meeting notes we put out last Tuesday. We feel that the district should be an option for our consultant to look at as we move forward. Patrol Activities: For the dates of January 29 to February 11, 2020 our officers issued 81 citations and 123 warnings for various traffic infractions. There was a total of 3 traffic accidents, 9 medicals, 5 alarms and 1 DWI. On 01-29, Officers Scharf and Hall responded to a domestic situation being reported at the police department. It was learned that the victim and his mother had come to the police department to report that a juvenile male had been assaulted by his father after a disagreement. It was found that the juvenile male had been choked by his father during a disagreement over what the kid was wearing to a work function. The father was subsequently arrested and booked into Hennepin County Jail. MEMORANDUM On 02-02, Officer Boecker took a harassment report. It was reported that unknown persons were opening Instagram accounts pretending to be the juvenile victim and then sending inappropriate things to others. This has occurred 4 different times since December of 2019. Information was obtained and forwarded to investigations for follow up. On 02-04, Officer Boecker responded to a slumper call. The caller reported that there was a male that appeared to be passed out behind the wheel near County Road 24 and Hollybush. Officer Boecker did locate the vehicle and its driver who was found to be under the influence of narcotics. A search of the vehicle revealed heroin and other narcotic paraphernalia. The male was turned over to the West Metro Drug Task Force. On 02-04, Officer Boecker took a theft of mail report. The reporting party stated that she had been contacted by the Brooklyn Park Police Department in regard to mail that had been located during one of their arrests. It is believed that the victim had her mail stolen from her mailbox. The case is being investigated by Brooklyn Park Police Department. On 02-05, Officer Scharf was requested to assist Corcoran Police with an unwanted person. It was found that an ex-boyfriend had forced his way into a residence. Officers located the subject inside the residence and Officer Scharf had to assist with taking the male into custody. Officer Scharf did pull out his handgun and point at the subject due to the situation. I did review the gun camera video and it was excellent audio and video. The gun cameras are a welcomed tool to the police department. On 02-09, Officer Scharf, the Orono and West Hennepin Public Safety Police Departments were dispatched to a driving complaint on Hwy 12. Caller stated that a car was driving all over the road and running into snowbanks. The vehicle was located, and the driver was believed to be under the influence of narcotics. He was evaluated by Officer Scharf who is a certified Drug Recognition Evaluator. A search warrant was applied for and granted for the driver’s blood. The driver was booked and released pending the blood results. Investigations: Recently received a CODIS MATCH (DNA hit) on some evidence from a commercial burglary that occurred in August of 2019. The DNA comes back to an individual with an extensive criminal history. I will be drafting a search warrant to confirm the suspects DNA matches the DNA that was found on the evidence. Investigation is ongoing. I have identified the suspect who used stolen credit cards from a residential burglary. The suspect is known to several law enforcement agencies in the East Metro. I will be submitting my case to the Hennepin County Attorney’s office for charging. Investigating harassing communications via Instagram. I have sent an administrative subpoena to Instagram to obtain information on the owner of the account. There are currently 10 cases assigned to Investigations. MEMORANDUM TO: City Council, through City Administrator Scott Johnson FROM: Steve Scherer, Public Works Director DATE: February 13, 2020 MEETING: February 18, 2020 SUBJECT: Public Works Update STREETS • Staff has been working with the City of Corcoran soliciting RFPs for the design phase of the reconstruction of Hackamore Road. With a substantial amount of development and right of way needs, it is important to identify the street and trail corridor. The RFPs are in your packet along with the recommendation of acceptance for the proposal. • The streets are shifting around with the frost moving down. This is a temporary inconvenience and the roadways will return to normal as they thaw. • We had a substantial snowfall in the past two weeks along with a few minor events. Our salt supply is stocked and hopefully the remainder of the snowfall season won’t pose many obstacles as we move towards spring. • Public Works is being proactive with seasonal spring road restrictions by sending reminders to as many builders as possible prior to the actual postings. We have created the map and posted it on the website as we have already started to receive inquiries about which roads will have weight limits. WATER/SEWER/STORMWATER • Public Works, along with Burschville Construction, repaired a leaky sewer service along HWY 55. The service was in a raingarden and was a substantial leak. • Public Works is gathering quotes to replace the chlorine gas with bleach for both the Morningside and Independence Beach water systems. Bleach is a slightly more expensive disinfectant but is a lot safer for the operator and the general public, especially if there is a leak. PARKS/TRAILS • The sliding hills and skating rinks are being used a lot this year with the reasonable temperatures and the abundance of snow. • We received two quotes for weed control and fertilization. There were two options in the bid, one was to keep the current scope of services, which includes extra sprayings at Hamel Legion Park, and the other was Public Works to do the fertilization and contract only the weed control. We are making a recommendation in this packet to accept Jenco’s quote for just the weed control portion and we will reevaluate the whole process in 2022 when the contract expires. PERSONNEL • Public Works will be asking for approval to advertise again for a part time seasonal maintenance person in this packet. • The fulltime Public Works Maintenance Technician posting closes February 24th.
