The original CUP for the Outdoor Learning Center was granted in 1997 which included the main lodge and eight cabins. The CUP was amended in 2010 to include an administrative office building on the site. The Planning Commission reviewed this request at their November 10th meeting and recommended approval subject to the conditions noted in the staff report. See attached report. Recommended Motion: Motion to direct staff to prepare a resolution approving the amended CUP subject to the conditions recommended by the Planning Commission. D. Fire Department Services Contract Notification Letters – Mayor Martin, Council Member Dino DesLauriers, City Attorney Ron Batty and staff have been working on draft letters to three of the four fire departments that provide service to Medina. The letters are requesting amendments to the contracts to allow for a transition to a fire service district/joint powers agreement for fire services and to stop any automatic contract renewals. Mr. Batty has reviewed the contracts and the letters to make sure they comply with the contract language. The Long Lake Fire Contract already has language allowing for the transition to  3 a fire service district/joint powers agreement with a 30-day notice and will not receive a letter. The letters would then be sent to the fire departments on December 31, 2020 if approved by the City Council. Attached are the proposed letters for City Council discussion and direction. See attached letters.

He 20 stated that the group will also discuss the lakeshore park plan and how to gain 21 community input. 22 23 C. Planning Commission 24 Planning Commissioner/Councilmember Elect Robin Reid reported that the Planning 25 Commission met the previous week and held three public hearings. She stated that the 26 first hearing was for the Weston Woods project noting that two written comments were 27 received prior to the meeting in support of the project. She stated a few Commissioners 28 were hesitant to advance the staging but agreed that the benefits outweighed that 29 concern and the Commission recommended unanimous approval. The second hearing 30 was to consider the Holy Name Estates project and highlighted some of the comments 31 expressed during the discussion. She noted that substantial improvements will be made 32 to Pinto Drive and some utilities as part of the project. The Commission ultimately did 33 not have concern with the longer cul-de-sac length and recommended unanimous 34 approval of the request and variance. The third public hearing was to consider an 35 amendment to the Three Rivers Park CUP to add a new building, no public comments 36 were received, and the Commission recommended unanimous approval of the request. 37 38 DesLauriers congratulated Reid on her election win and commented that he looks 39 forward to working with her on the Council. 40 41 VII. PRESENTATIONS 42 43 A. Resolution No. 2020-87 Recognizing Joshua McKinley for Five Years of 44 Service to the City of Medina (7:17 p.m.) 45 Martin read aloud the draft resolution recognizing Joshua McKinley for five years of 46 service to the City of Medina. 47 48 Moved by Pederson, seconded by Albers, to adopt Resolution No. 2020-87 recognizing 49 Joshua McKinley for Five Years of Service to the City of Medina. 50 51 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 3 November 17, 2020 Further discussion: Nelson commented that Josh is a great member of the department 1 and was a CSO more than five years ago before he went to the Buffalo Police 2 Department and then returned when there was a position available in Medina. He 3 commented that Josh does great work with investigations and fills in wherever he is 4 needed. 5 6 Martin commented that Medina is fortunate to have a great Police Department and 7 thanked Josh for his willingness to wear multiple hats in the department. 8 9 A roll call vote was performed: 10 11 Albers aye 12 DesLauriers aye 13 Anderson aye 14 Pederson aye 15 Martin aye 16 17 Motion passed unanimously. 18 19 B. Resolution No. 2020-88 Awarding the Sale of General Obligation Refunding 20 Bonds, Series 2020A, in the Original Aggregate Principal Amount of 21 $5,720,000; Fixing Their Form and Specifications; Directing Their Execution 22 and Delivery; Providing for Their Payment; and Providing for the 23 Redemption of Bonds Refunded Thereby (7:22 p.m.) 24 Martin applauded staff for their ability to continue to find options to save the City money. 25 The bond refunding will save Medina a total of $512,000. 26 27 Johnson thanked Eldridge and Barnhart for their work on the refunding noting that the 28 results were much better than expected. 29 30 Shelly Eldridge, Ehlers, confirmed that the results of the sale were wonderful with five 31 bids received and the results were contained in the sale report sent via email earlier 32 today. She stated that the winning bidder had a true interest cost of .9952, which is less 33 than one percent. She stated that a premium bid was also received which resulted in a 34 reduction of $320,000. She confirmed that there was a reduction to both the debt and 35 the interest rate. She stated that the bidding results were very tight and close which can 36 be attributed to the rating of the City, the size of the debt and the 13-year term. She 37 stated that the majority of the savings the City will see as a result of this action are 38 related to the capital improvement bond for the public works and police facility, which 39 reduces the need for the City to include those interest costs within its levy. 40 41 Martin thanked Eldridge for her work and presentation. 42 43 Johnson also thanked Eldridge and Barnhart noting that the timing was perfect and 44 taxpayer dollars will be saved because of this action. 45 46 Pederson echoed his comments and of thanked staff. 47 48 Anderson stated that as the Council moves forward it is important to maintain a good 49 bond rating which affords the City these opportunities to save money. 50 51 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 4 November 17, 2020 Moved by Martin, seconded by Pederson, to adopt Resolution No. 2020-88 Awarding the 1 Sale of General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2020A, in the Original Aggregate 2 Principal Amount of $5,720,000; Fixing Their Form and Specifications; Directing Their 3 Execution and Delivery; Providing for Their Payment; and Providing for the Redemption 4 of Bonds Refunded Thereby. 5 6 A roll call vote was performed: 7 8 Pederson aye 9 Albers aye 10 Anderson aye 11 DesLauriers aye 12 Martin aye 13 14 Motion passed unanimously. 15 16 VIII. NEW BUSINESS 17 18 A. Holy Name Lake Estates – Preliminary Plat and Variances – Northeast of 19 Pinto Drive, North of Holy Name Lake (7:33 p.m.) 20 Sparks stated that the subject property contains three parcels totaling about 90 acres in 21 size, noting that about 25 acres is under the ordinary high water (OHW) for Holy Name 22 Lake. He stated that the proposal would replat the three lots into six lots ranging in size 23 from 10 to 23 acres. The property is zoned rural residential and is guided as such under 24 the Comprehensive Plan. He stated that the applicant is contesting the soil designation 25 and a variance is being sought for the cul-de-sac length. He stated that a portion of the 26 existing road would also be required to be reconstructed and provided details on the 27 extension of Pinto Drive and the reconstructed portion. He reviewed the rural residential 28 zoning district and shoreland overlay standards. He identified the area that Hennepin 29 County does not count towards suitable soils because of the slope. He explained that 30 the applicant’s surveyor visited the site and identified additional areas that can be 31 included in the suitable soil configuration because the slope is under 12 percent. He 32 stated that many times in rural subdivisions the City prefers to have a private street 33 system but that was not considered in this proposal as the street would serve two 34 existing properties that are not part of the proposed subdivision. He stated that the 35 proposed cul-de-sac length would exceed the maximum allowance and therefore a 36 variance would be required. He noted that the standard of 750 is more urban related 37 and this proposal could be deemed acceptable because there are no other road 38 connections, there would be minimal abilities to further develop in this area, and this 39 would be the most effective approach to provide access to the site. He identified the 40 substandard portion of Pinto Drive that would be reconstructed to meet City standards. 41 He noted that process would require some tree removal and relocation of utilities but 42 only within the right-of-way. He stated that the Park Commission reviewed this request 43 to discuss trail corridor planning within this area and provided an overview on the 44 recommended park dedication. He reviewed the remaining standards that are met by 45 the request. He stated that the cul-de-sac length variance seems justified because of 46 the limited potential future development in this area and limited capacity for development 47 in this area as well as there being no future road connections planned. He noted that 48 the soil contestation also seems appropriate with the additional information provided by 49 the applicant. He reported that the Planning Commission held a public hearing to 50 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 5 November 17, 2020 consider the request at its meeting the previous week and unanimously recommended 1 approval of the request and variance. 2 3 Martin asked for input on the plat in general with discussion then focusing on the cul-de-4 sac variance and soil contestation. She stated that she finds the plat to be fairly well laid 5 out and the requirements of the ordinance met. She stated that she does not fully 6 understand the soils review and the necessity to contest the soil survey as the lots seem 7 to meet the minimum standards. 8 9 Sparks stated that the applicant suspected that there were certain areas on the site 10 where the soils were omitted due to the slope exceeding 12 percent but when those 11 areas were measured the slope was under 12 percent and therefore those areas could 12 be considered as suitable soils for the purpose of calculating minimum lot size. He 13 stated that the Hennepin County soils map is completed on more of a global basis and 14 the specificity of certain areas are lost, therefore the applicant focused on those areas 15 and has proven that in the areas they are contesting. He noted that there may be areas 16 that were counted as suitable by Hennepin County but perhaps exceed the 12 percent 17 slope, which might then cause the lots to shift counterclockwise around the cul-de-sac. 18 He stated that in the past the City has focused on the areas contested and has not 19 looked above the area of review. He stated that in this case the ultimate number of lots 20 would not be changed and therefore the Council could accept the soils contest as such. 21 22 Martin asked if the applicant would need to take the soils contest further or whether it 23 would be made a condition of plat approval. 24 25 Sparks stated that the applicant has completed further investigations on the identified 26 areas, which allows the City to amend its review of the soils on this specific subdivision. 27 He stated that the Hennepin County map would be amended through this process and 28 the applicant has successfully done that in the opinion of staff. 29 30 Martin asked and received confirmation that the City would be the decision maker on 31 whether the Hennepin County map is incorrect. 32 33 Scherer asked if there would be an easement on the entire northern border all the way to 34 the west. 35 36 Sparks stated that this is the drawing the Park Commission reviewed prior to its 37 recommendation and confirmed that would occur. 38 39 Donavan DesMarais, applicant, confirmed that the northern border could continue all the 40 way to the west and along lots one and two as discussed by the Park Commission, 41 which provides the option to go west or south. 42 43 Martin referenced proposed condition seven of the recommendation from the Planning 44 Commission, which speaks to park dedication. She stated that perhaps additional 45 language should be added to include the language “…easements granted for trail 46 purposes will be extended along the north boundary”. 47 48 DesLauriers asked if there was a possibility to extend this road to connect to another 49 roadway. 50 51 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 6 November 17, 2020 Sparks commented that staff reviewed where the road could potentially go. He stated 1 that this area is rural, designated for one unit per acre and it would not be possible to 2 connect to another roadway without subdividing additional parcels that are too small to 3 divide. He stated that there would be no way to connect to another road or cul-de-sac 4 without impacting additional properties. 5 6 Martin asked and received confirmation on the details on Pinto Drive to be improved and 7 extended. She stated that she is comfortable with the cul-de-sac but asked for input 8 from the other members of the Council. 9 10 Pederson stated that the cul-de-sac extension is a concern but if public safety is not 11 concerned, he believed that the upgrade of Pinto would be a nice trade off. 12 13 Scherer provided input noting that this would provide additional space for public works 14 and public safety to navigate and turn around. He stated that he would also want to see 15 a clause that requires the developer to cost share the final overlay lift for the first 300-16 400 feet of the roadway as damage will be done from the construction vehicles. He 17 confirmed that in discussions with the applicant, the applicant has agreed to pay the 50 18 percent assessment which would avoid the residents having to pay the assessment. 19 20 DesMarais confirmed that he discussed that with staff and agrees with that statement. 21 He noted that the forecasted damage may not exist, but he still agrees to split the cost at 22 the rate proposed by the City for that section of up to 400 feet. He stated that he and 23 staff agree with the desired outcome for the road after the development is completed. 24 25 Martin confirmed the consensus of the Council that the developer is correct in its 26 assessment that the Hennepin County soils assessment was incorrect in the areas 27 shaded in orange and it is appropriate that those areas be included in the suitable soils 28 calculation for the purposes of meeting the five-acre minimum standard. She stated that 29 ten conditions were proposed by the Planning Commission and reviewed the 30 suggestions to amend condition seven to clarify the extension of the trail easement and 31 add a condition that the applicant shall pay 50 percent of the cost to improve up to the 32 first 400 feet of Pinto Drive measured from CR 24 to ensure conformity and consistency 33 with the remainder of the improved Pinto Drive. 34 35 Pederson asked if the regional trail has been addressed as it appears that could move 36 forward in the future and just wanted to ensure that the easement provided was 37 sufficient. 38 39 Scherer confirmed that was included and explained that the extension to the west was 40 provided in the case that those properties to the west subdivide, therefore two options 41 are provided. 42 43 DesLauriers stated that it seems excessive that the Diamond Lake regional trail would 44 be proposed to be 25 feet wide and asked for details. 45 46 Scherer replied that the easement would be that large for the purpose of drainage, but 47 the surface of the trail would most likely be ten feet. 48 49 Sparks confirmed that the easement is wider to accommodate the trail and any drainage 50 needs. 51 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 7 November 17, 2020 1 Moved by Martin, seconded by DesLauriers, to direct staff to prepare a resolution of 2 approval subject to the conditions noted in the staff report, the amendment to condition 3 seven and the inclusion of the additional condition related to the improvement of the first 4 400 feet of Pinto Drive as measured from CR 24. 5 6 A roll call vote was performed: 7 8 Anderson aye 9 Albers aye 10 DesLauriers aye 11 Pederson aye 12 Martin aye 13 14 Motion passed unanimously. 15 16 B. Chippewa Road Extension/Weston Woods EAW (8:21 p.m.) 17 Finke stated that the public comment period for this environmental assessment 18 worksheet (EAW) occurred in October and ten comments were received from different 19 agencies. He explained that an EAW is intended to summarize the environmental 20 impacts of a project and solicit input. He stated that ultimately an EAW leads the 21 decision-making body, in this case the Council, to determine whether additional 22 environmental study is necessary through an environmental impact statement (EIS). 23 The criteria are summarized in the staff report, noting that the natural resources expert 24 from WSB is present, as she coordinated the City portion of the EAW. He noted that 25 much of the work was completed by the applicant’s consultant. He stated that the EAW 26 was mandatory because of the wetland impacts anticipated for the extension of 27 Chippewa Road. He stated that a summary of the comments from the agencies 28 received was included in the staff report. He noted that the moderate quality woodland 29 on the site was called out by multiple agencies and was discussed at length during the 30 concept plan review. He noted that the seven acres identified by the City are proposed 31 to be preserved through this development. He stated that the DNR also commented that 32 there are Blanding’s turtles in this area and suggested construction practices. He stated 33 that most of the other comments were more technical related to each of the agencies 34 review practices. He stated that none of the agencies recommended requiring an EIS 35 and therefore staff believes that the existing regulatory practices would provide sufficient 36 review and recommends that an EIS is not necessary. 37 38 Martin commented that this is an excellent compilation of the comments received and 39 the staff responses. She noted that she has no additional comments. 40 41 The Council had no further questions and commended staff for the well-done work. 42 43 Moved by DesLauriers, seconded by Albers, to approve the Response to Comments, 44 Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision. 45 46 A roll call vote was performed: 47 48 Albers aye 49 DesLauriers aye 50 Pederson aye 51 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 8 November 17, 2020 Anderson aye 1 Martin aye 2 3 Motion passed unanimously. 4 5 1. Resolution No. 2020-89 Approving the Response to Comments, 6 Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision for the Chippewa Road 7 Extension and Weston Woods EAW and Making a Negative Declaration 8 of Need for an Environmental Impact Statement 9 Moved by DesLauriers, seconded by Albers, to adopt Resolution No. 2020-89 Approving 10 the Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision for the Chippewa 11 Road Extension and Weston Woods EAW and Making a Negative Declaration of Need 12 for an Environmental Impact Statement. 13 14 A roll call vote was performed: 15 16 Albers aye 17 Anderson aye 18 Pederson aye 19 DesLauriers aye 20 Martin aye 21 22 Motion passed unanimously. 23 24 IX. OLD BUSINESS 25 26 A. US Home Corp (Lennar) – Meadowview Commons – North of Hwy 55, South 27 of Meander Road, West of County Road 116 (8:31 p.m.) 28 Finke stated that this first phase of development would include 42 townhomes along with 29 various outlots. He stated that the purpose of the final plat review is to ensure 30 consistency with preliminary plat and review whether the conditions of preliminary have 31 been met, or will be met, with this final plat. He stated that the final plat is consistent 32 with the preliminary plat, noting that some alignment was changes for the outlots to 33 include the private road and accommodate utilities. He stated that the staff report 34 discusses how the conditions of preliminary plat have or will be met. He called attention 35 to the construction of Tamarack Drive along the western portion of the plat, noting that 36 the proposed resolution for final plat calls for the construction of the northern 500 feet of 37 Tamarack Drive south of Meander. He noted that additional right-of-way would be 38 needed from another property and provided additional details on what could occur if that 39 right-of-way cannot be secured. He stated that the preliminary plat resolution included a 40 condition that allowed the City to secure a petition and waiver to contribute towards 41 additional improvements on Tamarack at Highway 55. He noted that staff does not 42 however recommend a petition and waiver for the improvements at Highway 55. He 43 explained that if the City collects petition and waiver as developments come forward it 44 gives the idea that the City will complete that improvement. He stated that staff believes 45 that perhaps those improvements can be constructed with an adjacent development 46 project and therefore a public improvement project would not be necessary. He stated 47 that in the case that the City needs to complete those improvements as a public 48 improvement project, the City could collect petition and waiver or assessments from 49 properties in the area, therefore that opportunity will still exist. He explained that there 50 are a number of items that could change between now and the time the ultimate project 51 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 9 November 17, 2020 is completed, including the cost, which is why staff does not want to collect petition and 1 waiver at this time. He noted that 45 percent of the anticipated traffic generation will be 2 developed in the future which provides the City with additional opportunities for 3 contributions. 4 5 Martin stated that she received a letter dated November 12, 2020 from the civil engineer 6 of the Cavanaughs, which has been circulated to the Council, noting that the civil 7 engineer is present tonight to address any questions. She commented that much of the 8 content from the letter was addressed through the staff report. 9 10 Pederson commented that a traffic analysis was completed for Meander Road, noting 11 that significant traffic will try to enter from CR 116. He did not believe that assistance 12 would be received from Hennepin County for improving that intersection and commented 13 on the other paths the traffic could take. He stated that he believes that this would be 14 the last opportunity for the City to have a nice retail development on the westerly 15 property and wants to ensure that the road is sufficient to handle the traffic. He asked if 16 the applicant would be paying their share towards the stoplight improvement at Highway 17 55 and whether the applicant would be constructing the full width of roadway for the first 18 500 feet. He used the example of Bridgewater in which the developer was supposed to 19 build the full width of road but because of the recession did not complete that task. 20 21 Finke replied that the conditions within the proposed development agreement would 22 require the construction of the 500 feet of Tamarack. He stated that related to the 23 Highway 55 intersection improvements, the City could not require construction of that 24 improvement because traffic counts do not warrant that improvement. He stated that the 25 alternative would be to require petition and waiver of properties that develop. He noted 26 that although the preliminary plat required a condition as such, staff now recommends 27 against that. 28 29 Pederson stated that he agrees with construction of 500 feet of Tamarack Drive but does 30 not support removing the condition related to petition and waiver. 31 32 Finke stated that the Council can choose to include that condition if it feels appropriate. 33 34 Anderson echoed the comments of Pederson related to the concern of traffic and the 35 desire to require the construction of the northern 500 feet of Tamarack Drive and include 36 the petition and waiver. 37 38 Martin used the example of the Brockton Lane project, which came a number of years 39 after the Enclave project. She stated that part of the City’s cost for that project came 40 from funds received in the Enclave approval process. She asked why this developer 41 would not also be required to contribute to the cost of those future improvements as it 42 will benefit the development and these homes contribute to the necessity of the 43 improvement. 44 45 Batty stated that there have been several court cases that have indicated that it is not a 46 permissible way to pay for public roads, which is why the City has avoided that. He 47 stated that the alternative has been described by staff. He explained that the conclusion 48 was that petition and waiver are of the most value when used immediately. He 49 explained that when improvements are delayed, land uses, and costs can change which 50 are risks to a petition and waiver. 51 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 10 November 17, 2020 1 Martin stated that it would appear that either the developer commit to that contribution 2 towards the improvement now or the homeowners would be hit with an assessment 3 later. She stated that she would not want to see residents of the townhomes responsible 4 for the assessment rather than the developer. She asked if the perspective purchasers 5 of the townhomes could be made aware of the potential future improvements and related 6 assessments to ensure that they have been informed. 7 8 Batty commented that there are two improvements to consider, the first being the 9 construction of the northern portion of Tamarack Drive, which Lennar will be required to 10 build that full width of the 500-foot road segment, as long as the necessary right-of-way 11 can be obtained from the other property owner on the west side. He stated that with 12 regard to the stoplight and other intersection improvements, those would be warranted 13 more in the future and therefore a petition and waiver would not be utilized for some 14 time. He stated that the Council was very clear during the numerous meetings related to 15 the Tamarack Drive study that the Council did not want to see the City put funds into the 16 project. He explained that requiring petition and waiver signals that the improvement 17 would be completed as a public improvement project and therefore staff does not 18 support requiring a petition and waiver. 19 20 Pederson stated that Wayzata School District has a property on the south side of 21 Highway 55 and has a projected timeline of three to five years and will need a stoplight. 22 He asked how that property owner would feel when the City tells them that a petition and 23 waiver was not done. He stated that an inflation rate could be added to the petition and 24 waiver. 25 26 Batty stated that the City always includes an inflator in petition and waivers but uses a 27 construction cost index. He explained that while that is a good general estimator, 28 construction costs can change disproportionately. He stated that the improvement may 29 be completed as a public improvement project which would include assessments but 30 there is also the possibility that a developer may be willing to complete a 31 disproportionate amount of work in order to move forward with the project. He noted that 32 requiring a petition and waiver would discourage against the second possibility. 33 34 Anderson commented that Batty did a good job explaining why a petition and waiver was 35 not recommended. 36 37 Albers commented that his questions have been addressed. 38 39 DesLauriers agreed with the comments of Batty. He asked if the road would be large 40 enough to support emergency vehicles if the right-of-way is not obtained from the 41 property owner to the west and Lennar only constructs their half of the road. He also 42 asked if there would be a concern with vehicle stacking on that short segment of road if 43 only half the road is constructed. 44 45 Finke stated that the design would need to be shown in order to make those 46 determinations, noting that it could possibly only be used as a secondary emergency 47 access as there is alternative access to the site. 48 49 DesLauriers asked if there would be an any ideas as to the possible width in that 50 scenario. 51 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 11 November 17, 2020 1 Stremel commented that the proposed segment of Tamarack would be 32 feet wide, 2 therefore if only the east half is constructed that would be 16 feet wide and could suffice 3 for emergency access. He stated that perhaps a temporary two-way segment could be 4 constructed within the Lennar right-of-way. 5 6 Finke confirmed that the temporary road would be very different and would remove other 7 options, noting that the trail area could be used for additional width and the trail could 8 then be constructed in the future with the remainder of the road. 9 10 Batty stated that the development agreement states that Lennar will build the full width of 11 the road as long as the necessary right-of-way is dedicated by the property owner to the 12 west by December 31st. He stated that if the right-of-way is not dedicated, Lennar would 13 only be responsible for construction within the right-of-way that would be dedicated by 14 Lennar. 15 16 Pederson commented that while he respects the position of staff, he disagrees with it 17 because of the safety concerns. He stated that a 16-foot road would only place 18 additional burden on Meander Road. 19 20 Scherer clarified that the road would not be 16 feet wide, as there is additional right-of-21 way proposed for trail that could be used if the right-of-way from the other property 22 owner cannot be obtained. He stated that while it would not be the road envisioned, it 23 could support the temporary use. 24 25 Pederson stated that if the trail is removed to create additional road width, that would 26 create additional safety concerns for pedestrians. 27 28 Anderson stated that he now believes it would be inadvisable to use a petition and 29 waiver as this is not a City road and he would not want this to be a City improvement 30 project. He stated that if the road has to be constructed in a temporary manner, as long 31 as it is safe, he will support that. 32 33 DesLauriers agreed with the comments of Anderson. He stated that after receiving input 34 from staff he does not believe that a petition and waiver would be the best course. He 35 stated that like Pederson, he would prefer the full segment of road be constructed but 36 recognized that without right-of-way from the other property owner, that is something 37 that is out of the control of the City and Lennar. 38 39 Albers echoed the comments of Anderson and DesLauriers and agrees that at this time 40 it would not be in the best interest of the City to pursue a petition and waiver. 41 42 Martin confirmed the consensus of the Council not to include a petition and waiver and 43 provided suggested language for the condition related to the construction of the 500-foot 44 segment of Tamarack Drive to ensure that a safe roadway could be constructed if the 45 necessary right-of-way is not received from the western property owner. 46 47 1. Easement Vacation – Public Hearing Continuation 48 Martin reopened the public hearing. 49 50 No comments made. 51 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 12 November 17, 2020 1 Martin closed the public hearing. 2 3 2. Resolution No. 2020-90 Granting Final Approval of the Meadowview 4 Commons Plat 5 Martin asked if it would be appropriate to add an addition to item 11 requiring that 6 homeowners be made aware of the potential assessment. 7 8 Batty stated that he does not object to the action but commented that he has not seen 9 that in other instances. He stated that the developer could be required to add language 10 to the HOA documents attempting to notify purchasers of the property. 11 12 Albers commented that he would support that. 13 14 Anderson asked for input from Martin as to why she believes that should be done. 15 16 Martin explained that comes from her sense that the developer will not incur the 17 additional costs for the intersection improvements and if that potential cost could be 18 absorbed by the homeowners, that should be advised to buyers. 19 20 Anderson asked why they would potentially put the homeowners at some potential risk 21 rather than making it clear to the developer that they would be responsible to build out 22 the roadway. 23 24 Martin stated that everyone is in agreement that the developer is responsible for building 25 out the segment of Tamarack contiguous to the development. She stated that her 26 statement regarding notice would be for the other future improvements related to the 27 segment and intersection at Highway 55. 28 29 Finke clarified that the City could require the physical construction of whatever portion of 30 the road that can be constructed depending upon right-of-way. He stated that if the 31 right-of-way can be obtained, the developer would be responsible to construct that full 32 500-foot segment of roadway. He stated that if the right-of-way is not provided from the 33 other property owner, the physical construction can only be required on the right-of-way 34 provided by the applicant. He stated that Lennar would not be required to reconstruct 35 the other portion of Tamarack Drive if the other property owner does not provide the 36 right-of-way and explained that portion of the roadway would be constructed along with a 37 future development project that necessitates that portion of the roadway. 38 39 Anderson stated that he does not object to the language proposed by Martin. 40 41 Martin acknowledged that it would be unusual to include this type of language in a HOA 42 document but believed it could be appropriate. 43 44 DesLauriers stated that he agrees it would be transparent, noting that perhaps that 45 language could be added to condition 16 related to HOA documents. 46 47 Pederson stated that he also likes being transparent and would agree to the additional 48 language. 49 50 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 13 November 17, 2020 Moved by Martin, seconded by Albers, to adopt Resolution No. 2020-90 Granting Final 1 Approval of the Meadowview Commons Plat with the conditions noted and amended as 2 follows: condition four should state in the event that the property owner to the west does 3 not contribute the necessary right-of-way by the identified deadline, the applicant shall 4 submit plans to be reviewed by the City Engineer related to the second access to the 5 site which shall be constructed as a full roadway utilizing the road right-of-way and area 6 marked as streetscape/greenspace/trail; and condition 11 shall be amended to include 7 the language that the documents shall include a notice to perspective owners that the 8 full construction of Tamarack to Highway 55 has not been assessed nor budgeted for by 9 the City and any such future road improvements may subject the property to future road 10 assessments. 11 12 Further discussion: Johnson noted that two people have requested to speak on this item. 13 14 Anderson stated that while he respects the requests to speak, he would have thought 15 those requests would have come forward at an earlier time in the discussion, such as 16 when the public hearing was opened. He stated that it is now late in the discussion to 17 receive input. 18 19 Martin noted that the public hearing was related to vacation of easement and did not 20 specifically concern the road improvement topic. 21 22 Pederson commented that he would accept the comments if they were kept brief. He 23 asked that the comments be kept under three minutes. 24 25 Martin agreed with the comments of Pederson and confirmed the consensus of the 26 Council. 27 28 Eric Miller, civil engineer representing the Cavanaughs, stated that he attempted to 29 respect the process and appreciated the allowance to speak. He recognized the 30 evolution of the discussion but noted that even though this is the final plat approval there 31 are still unresolved issues. He referenced the future funding of the roads and referenced 32 the City’s study and the allocation of traffic that can occur to Meander Road until the 33 connection to Highway 55 is provided. He noted that this development would only 34 consume 30 percent of the trips needed to trigger the connection to Highway 55. He 35 stated that the total development is area is 70 acres and this development area is 22 36 acres of that. He stated that as identified, following this development, a four-acre 37 development would be the trigger to fund the remaining construction of Tamarack Drive, 38 which will hinder potential development opportunities. He asked that the Council 39 withhold final approval until those items have been resolved. 40 41 Joe Jablonski, Lennar, appreciated the discussion tonight. He referenced the second 42 proposed change to the resolution related to HOA documents. He stated that while he 43 appreciates the attempt of the Council, the additional language could cause problems 44 because there is not identified dollar figure which could cause hesitation from buyers. 45 He stated that they would not be able to provide clarity as to when that could occur or 46 how much the amount could be. 47 48 Pederson commented that he appreciated the input from staff related to the issue of 49 petition and waiver. He stated that although he still feels differently, he will support the 50 action. 51 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 14 November 17, 2020 1 A roll call vote was performed: 2 3 Pederson aye 4 Anderson aye 5 DesLauriers aye 6 Albers aye 7 Martin aye 8 9 Motion passed unanimously. 10 11 3.

CITY ADMINISTRATOR REPORT (9:43 p.m.) 44 Nelson provided a brief update on recent liquor license violations of two businesses 45 conducted on October 28th. He stated that these are first offenses for both businesses 46 which typically result in a $500 fine and/or ten-day suspension of the liquor license. He 47 asked that the Council accept the $500 fine and stay the ten-day suspension of the 48 liquor license for 12 months so long as there are no additional violations. 49 50 Medina City Council Meeting Minutes 15 November 17, 2020 The Council confirmed consensus with the recommendation of Nelson to impose the 1 $500 fine and stay the ten-day license suspension for a period of 12 months as long as 2 there are no additional violations. 3 4 Johnson stated that Albers had brought forward an idea for an ordinance against 5 protests on private residences or property, like what was enacted in Lino Lakes. He 6 asked for direction from the Council on whether to investigate the issue. 7 8 Anderson agreed that he would strongly support that idea. 9 10 The Council confirmed consensus with directing staff to research that topic. 11 12 XI.

Return completed form to your underwriter or email to pstech@lmc.org. The decision to waive or not waive the statutory tort limits must be made annually by the member’s governing body, in consultation with its attorney if necessary. Members who obtain liability coverage from LMCIT must decide whether to waive the statutory tort liability limits to the extent of the coverage purchased. The decision has the following effects: •If the member does not waive the statutory tort limits, an individual claimant could recover no more than $500,000 on any claim to which the statutory tort limits apply. The total all claimants could recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort limits apply would be limited to $1,500,000. These statutory tort limits would apply regardless of whether the member purchases the optional LMCIT excess liability coverage. •If the member waives the statutory tort limits and does not purchase excess liability coverage, a single claimant could recover up to $2,000,000 for a single occurrence (under the waive option, the tort cap liability limits are only waived to the extent of the member’s liability coverage limits, and the LMCIT per occurrence limit is $2,000,000). The total all claimants could recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort limits apply would also be limited to $2,000,000, regardless of the number of claimants. •If the member waives the statutory tort limits and purchases excess liability coverage, a single claimant could potentially recover an amount up to the limit of the coverage purchased. The total all claimants could recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort limits apply would also be limited to the amount of coverage purchased, regardless of the number of claimants. Claims to which the statutory municipal tort limits do not apply are not affected by this decision.

Johnson City Administrator City of Medina 2052 County Road 24 Medina, MN 55340 RE: 2021 Legal Rates Dear Scott: Kennedy & Graven’s 2021 rates for Medina’s legal work will remain unchanged from this year’s rates, as you requested. As always, it has been a pleasure to work with the city council and city staff during the past year. I am proud to have been the Medina city attorney for the past 34 years and look forward to a successful 2021. Very truly yours, Ronald H. Batty Medina City Attorney RHB:ktb Agenda Item # 5B Agenda Item # 5C November 12th, 2020 To Whom It May Concern: I am writing to you, in reference to the Continuing Education Program (5.80) that the City of Medina offers to any current full time employees, who are in good standing and who have been with the City for at least one year. I know that the Medina Police Department currently offers leadership positions, and that when new positions, or vacated positions arise, there would be an opportunity for me to serve the department in such a role. I believe that it is critical for me to pursue additional education, as to serve better in these positions should I be selected when the opportunity presents itself. I am wishing to continue my education, in the capacity of a Masters of Public Administration graduate degree program through Metropolitan State University. This would begin in January of 2021, and is a 40 credit program, encompassed by 10 mandated courses which are as follows: • Practical Research for Public Administration and Non-profit Management • Public Administration Foundations • Leading Public Service Organizations • Economic Reasoning for Public Administrators and Nonprofit Managers • Strategic Human Resources Management: Public and Nonprofit • Information Management, Evaluation, and Public Accountability • Public Ethics and the Common Good • Public Policy Analysis • Public Finance • Capstone in Community Oriented Management • Electives (4 credits) I believe that pursuing this education would be pivotal to my career, and to succeeding in a leadership role within the City of Medina, specifically within the Police Department, when the opportunity arises. Sincerely, Andrew J.

Approved By: Medina City Council Date: December 20, 2005; Amended: November 19, 2013 and September 5, 2017 Member ________ introduced the following resolution and moved its adoption: CITY OF MEDINA RESOLUTION 2020-__ RESOLUTION APPROVING A PRELIMINARY PLAT FOR A SUBDIVISION TO BE KNOWN AS “HOLY NAME LAKE ESTATES” WHEREAS, the city of Medina (the “City”) is a municipal corporation, organized and existing under the laws of Minnesota; and WHEREAS, Donavon DesMarais (the “Applicant”) has made an application for a subdivision of land (the “Property”) legally described as: That part of the Northwest Quarter of the Northwest Quarter of Section 24, Township 118, Range 23, Hennepin County, Minnesota, lying East of the West 674.41 feet thereof. and The South 60.00 feet of the East 644.41 feet of the West 674.41 feet of the Northwest Quarter of the Northwest Quarter of Section 24, Township 118, Range 23, Hennepin County, Minnesota. and The East 5/16ths of the South Half of the Northwest Quarter of Section 24, Township 118, Range 23, Hennepin County, Minnesota, except road. and The Northeast Quarter of the Northwest Quarter of Section 24, Township 118, Range 23, Hennepin County, Minnesota. WHEREAS, the Property is three separate parcels totaling approximately 90 acres in size; and WHEREAS, the Property is zoned RR, Rural Residential; and WHEREAS, the Applicant is proposing to develop the property into six separate lots intended as single family residential properties consistent with the Rural Residential zoning district standards; and WHEREAS, the City’s subdivision ordinance states in Section 820.29 Subd. 2 (g) that cul- de-sacs shall not exceed 750 feet in length; and Agenda Item # 5D WHEREAS, the proposed subdivision includes an extension of an existing dead-end roadway that would result in a cul-de-sac length of about 3,500 feet and so, as part of the preliminary plat application, the Applicant also seeks a variance under the City’s subdivision ordinance to allow a cul-de-sac that exceeds 750 feet in length; and WHEREAS, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed public hearing on November 10, 2020 and, following said public hearing, recommended approval of the subdivision and variance with conditions; and WHEREAS, the City Council reviewed the proposed preliminary plat and the Planning Commission’s recommendation of approval on November 17, 2020; and WHEREAS, the City Council makes the following findings of fact in regards to the preliminary plat based on the requirements of the subdivision ordinance: a. The proposed preliminary plat is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan and is not premature for consideration. b. The subdivision is appropriate for the physical conditions on the site including the topography, storm water, natural resources, and soils. c. The density proposed is consistent with the intent of the City of Medina Comprehensive Plan and the lots proposed are consistent with the standards of the Rural Residential Zoning District. d. The proposed subdivision will not cause substantial environmental damage. e. The proposed subdivision is not likely to be injurious to public health. f. The proposed subdivision and its improvements will not conflict with public or private streets, easements, or rights-of-way. WHEREAS, the City Council makes the following findings of fact in regards to the variance related to the cul-de-sac length requirements in Section 820.29 Subd. 2 (g): a. The proposed cul-de-sac is the extension of an existing street with no planned future connections. b. There are no other exiting streets that are available to be connected to this Property. Because of these particular physical surroundings, a particular and unusual hardship would result if the strict letter of the City’s subdivision ordinance were carried out. c. The condition is unique to the parcels of land for which the variance is sought and are not common to other properties within the City. d. The particular and unusual hardship is related to the requirements of these regulations and has not been created by any persons presently or formerly having an interest in the parcel of land. e. The granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the public welfare or injurious to other land or improvements in the neighborhood in which the parcel of land is located. NOW, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of Medina, Minnesota hereby approves the preliminary plat together with the aforementioned variance for the subdivision to be named “Holy Name Lake Estates” with the following conditions to be fulfilled prior to the consideration of the final plat: 1. The Applicant shall enter into a development agreement with the City, which shall include the conditions described below as well as all other requirements by City ordinance or policy. 2. All easement legal descriptions shall be provided to the City Attorney. 3. An upland buffer conservation easement and planting plans shall be provided around the wetlands.

Trail easements shall be 25 feet in width and include corridors along the north property line of Lot 1 outside of wetland areas; along the north property line of Lot 2 in the western portion of the lot; between Lots 1 and 2; and along Pinto Drive west of Lot 2, all in accordance with City requirements. 9. Drainage and utility easements adjacent to trail easements shall be increased in size to accommodate the standard drainage and utility area outside of the trail easement. 10. The grading plan shall be modified to include an area for future trail construction within easements and the right-of-way. 11. The Applicant shall pay for 50% for the pavement overlay of the approximately 450 feet of Pinto Drive north of County Road 24 and reconstruct the remainder of the existing road to the northern terminus to meet City standards. 12. The Applicant shall pay to the City a fee in an amount sufficient to reimburse the City for the cost of reviewing the preliminary plat and other associated documents. 13. The application for final plat shall be submitted to the City within 180 days of preliminary approval or the preliminary plat shall be considered void, unless a written request for time extension is submitted by the applicant and approved by the City Council.

MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and City Council Members FROM: Erin Barnhart, Finance Director DATE: November 22, 2020 SUBJ: 2021 Final Budget This 2021 budget reflects the Council’s property tax levy and budget discussions throughout 2020. When approved, this budget will be the basis for the final 2021 property tax levy to be certified to Hennepin County in December 2020. The County will then use the certified property tax levy for final 2021 property tax calculations. General Fund - see attachment A The General Fund is the primary operating fund for the governmental operations of the City. Activities enabled by General Fund planning include police protection and community support, fire prevention and suppression, planning and zoning, street maintenance and repair, parks and recreation, sanitation and waste removal, as well as engineering, legal and general administrative functions. Over the course of 2020, staff and city council discussed several goals for the 2021 budget, which included; keeping a flat tax rate (22.492%), maintaining/lowering expenses and spacing out projects if possible. In response to the economic uncertainties brought on by COVID-19, each department, along with consultants were asked to try and maintain a flat budget moving into 2021. There are several areas with increases: • Property/Liability Insurance • Health Insurance • Hennepin County Technology Services (Assessor Software) • New Police Mandates Health insurance renewals for 2021 increased 5.3%. The preliminary budget estimated a 10% increase. The 2021 final budget includes the reduced amount, a decrease of $30,000. Property Tax Levy – see attachments A-E The property tax levy allocates 81% to the general fund for general operations of the City. Debt service comprises 10% and capital levies (Municipal Park and Equipment) comprise 9%. Calculations from Hennepin County estimate a 4.3% market value increase and a 5.2% tax capacity increase for pay 2021. The market value increase, due primarily to development growth in 2019 (46 new single-family homes, Medina Sr. Living and Auto Motor Plex), and a capital levy decrease provides $297,348 (attachment A, line 1) of additional tax revenue while maintaining a flat tax rate. Proposals for use of the tax revenue attributed to growth include; Agenda Item # 7A 2 general fund increases bullet pointed above, Staff COLA and the remainder of $178,734 (attachment A, line 36) being allocated to reserves. Proposed 2021 tax rate: 22.492%; 0% increase from 2020. Pre-existing debt service levies have decreased by $67,260. Capital levies for the Municipal Park Fund and Equipment Fund have no increase. The overall total levy increase for 2021 amounts to $230,088.

This 2021 budget reflects the Council’s property tax levy and budget discussions throughout 2020. When approved, this budget will be the basis for the final 2021 property tax levy to be certified to Hennepin County in December 2020. The County will then use the certified property tax levy for final 2021 property tax calculations. Medina’s population as of the 2010 census was 4,892 residents living in a total of 1,702 housing units. 2021 population is estimated to be 6,930, based on mathematical estimations of Medina’s fire districts. Total taxable market value increased 4.4% from $1.808 billion in 2020 to $1.887 billion in 2021. Adjusted net tax capacity increased 5.1% from $19.5 million in 2020 to $20.5 million in 2021. The budget proposes a General Fund property tax levy increase of $297,348 for 2021, which maintains a flat tax rate of 22.492% from 2020-2021. The levy increase is primarily due to new growth and tax base expansion. Pre-existing debt service levies have decreased by $67,260. Capital levies for the Municipal Park Fund and Equipment Fund have no increase. The overall total levy increase for 2021 amounts to $230,088. Property Tax Levy: 2020 2021 Change General Fund $3,434,452 $3,731,800 $297,348 Capital Equipment 312,500 312,500 0 Municipal Park Fund 112,000 112,000 0 Road Improvement Debt Service 152,753 119,651 (33,102) Building Debt Service 381,066 346,908 (34,158) Total Levy $4,392,771 $4,622,859 $230,088 The General Fund Budget reflects the revenues and expenditures developed from the City’s service needs, trend analysis, the annual goal setting session, joint work sessions with the City Council and Staff, and City Council discussions. The expenditure levels are focused on maintaining the City’s current level of services and to address capital, maintenance, or special project needs. Page 2 of 89 GENERAL FUND REVENUES: The total budgeted revenue for 2021 is $5,082,380 compared to the 2020 budget of $4,807,124. As has been true in the past, these revenue estimates are based on conservative assumptions. With the proposed general operating levy increase, property tax collections in the General Fund are projected to increase from $3,434,452 in 2020 to $3,731,800 in 2021. As in prior years, the City continues to receive the largest portion of the General Fund revenue from the property tax. In 2021, the tax levy will provide approximately 73.0% of the City’s total General Fund revenues. Licenses and Permits are estimated to remain steady. The budget is conservative regarding building permit activity to account for slowing growth in the future. A large portion of building permit surplus can be offset by building inspection liability that is not booked until year-end. Budgeted transfers to the General Fund from the Water, Sewer, and Storm Water funds have increased from $220,784 in 2020 to $227,409 based on a 1% water increase, 1% sewer increase and a 3% storm water increase. GENERAL FUND EXPENDITURES: General Fund expenditures are budgeted to increase from $4,807,123 in 2020 to $5,082,380 in 2021, of this increase $178,734 is a transfer to the reserve fund. General government expenditures are budgeted to increase $10,150 or 0.8%, largely due to staff wages and building contracts services (utilities and maintenance). Public safety expenditures are budgeted to increase $100,513 or 4.0%, due to fire services, staff wages, addition of part-time staff and building inspections. Parks and recreation expenditures are budgeted to decrease $6,767 or 2.9%. Public works expenditures are budgeted to decrease by $7,508 or 1.0%. Capital replacement acquisitions will continue to be transacted through other funding sources or reserves on an as needed or emergency basis only. Personnel costs represent 59% of the General Fund Budget. A 1% cost of living adjustment (COLA) plus an additional 1% July 1, 2021 and defined pay grade step (step) increases are included in the 2021 budget for qualifying employees. OTHER FUND BUDGETS In addition to the City’s General Fund Budget and proposed property tax levy, the City also has several other Special Revenue, Capital Projects, Debt Service, and Enterprise fund budgets. While a profile and proposed budget of each fund is included in this budget document, a summary of each fund’s key changes should be noted to understand the impact on meeting future City service needs. Community Event Fund: The City has depended on donations to fund the fireworks display at the annual Medina Celebration Day event. Conduit bond revenue in the amount of $15,500 was received in 2019 to be spread over five years. Additional donations will again be needed in 2021 to fund a fireworks contract for the event. To assist in the event funding, a $4,000 transfer in from the General Fund is budgeted for 2021. Page 3 of 89 Municipal Park Fund: Park equipment has an asset/depreciation life between 10 and 40 years. Past practice for park equipment replacement needs have been funded from the General Fund or Park Dedication Fund if classified as a capital improvement. The past need for park replacement has not been great because the parks were new or newer. As the parks and park equipment within the City of Medina approach asset life, there will be an increased need for replacement. The funds within the Park Dedication Fund will not be enough to maintain a practice of funding replacements or improvements. The 2040 Comprehensive Plan shows between $13.8 and $27.4 million in new parks and trails development over the next 20 years. The Park Dedication Fund’s revenue source is 100% dependent on development and developers and needs to set aside for future use. There have been past years and will be again when no revenue comes in for Park Dedication. Thus, the reason there is importance in establishing a constant revenue source for the Municipal Park Fund to handle replacements, which will be ongoing while there are parks in use. Water Utility: The City’s 2018 Water Rate Analysis demonstrated the need for a 1% rate increase in user rates and no current increase in the trunk connection fees. Sewer Utility: The City’s 2018 Sewer Rate Analysis includes a 1% rate increase in user rates and a decrease in trunk connection fees because of the addition of an area charge for the Willow TH 55 lift station . Storm Water Utility: A 3% increase in the Storm Water Utility rate has been included in the 2021 budget. The storm water utility revenue supports administrative costs for annual reporting, pond maintenance, etc. and will be used as matching funds for capital project completion. The CIP for storm water projects is large and completion of the projects is highly contingent on receiving grant or cooperative funding from other agencies and partners. The remaining portions of this document provide greater detail on individual fund sources and uses budgets. Supplemental information can be obtained from the Finance Department. FINAL COMMENTS This budget has been prepared based on the direction given by the City Council to date and the best estimates of staff of the available revenues and the expenditures required to reasonably maintain core levels of services without significantly compromising quality of life for Medina taxpayers. Respectfully Submitted, Erin Barnhart Finance Director Page 4 of 89 THIS PAGE LEFT BLANK INTENTIONALLY Page 5 of 89 General Fund The General Fund is the primary operating fund for the governmental operations of the City.

This includes all revenues from property taxes to recreation charges for activities. The primary breakdowns for revenues in the General Fund are:  Taxes  Special Assessments  Licenses and Permits  Intergovernmental Revenues  Charges for Services  Fines and Forfeitures  Miscellaneous Revenues REVENUE DETAILS Property Taxes $ 3,731,800 These are the General Fund property taxes charged to all taxable properties in the City of Medina based on the tax capacity of each property. The 2021 budget is 5.7% greater than the 2020 budget. Property Taxes make up about 73% of the total revenues and other sources collected to provide General Fund services. Licenses and Permits $ 391,269 These are charges for items that state statutes have granted authority to issue and the fee amounts are generally authorized on an annual basis within the City’s fee schedule. The City estimates these amounts conservatively as these amounts can vary considerably from year to year. Types of fees included are liquor and cigarette licenses, and building, plumbing, and hunting permits. Charges for Services $ 141,254 Cities may receive revenues for services provided. The main sources of revenue are from public safety services and community room rentals. Other charges include election filing fees, sales of maps and copies, and assessment searches. These three revenue sources, property taxes, licenses and permits, and charges for services, together make up approximately 84% of the City’s general operating revenues and other sources. The balance comes from fines and forfeitures, intergovernmental activity, antenna rent, and operating transfers.

This was also a presidential election and required more staffing.  In 2014 two part-time election judges were hired to administer absentee voting.  2015 was a non-election year. Shift staffing was not necessary.  2016 one full-time election judge was hired to administer absentee voting along with staff. Presidential election and no excuse absentee voting implemented. Additional election judges for office help will be needed for future presidential elections.  2017 was a non-election year.  In 2018, two full-time election judges were hired to assist in absentee voting.  In 2020, two primary elections and one general election were held. All elections had absentee voting and required election judges at City Hall.

The utility billing operation prepares and sends out utility bills, receives meter readings and administers the collections and assessment for nonpayment. Agreements with the cities of Maple Plain and Orono are also in place to provide water to separate developments within the City of Medina. OVERVIEW Operating revenues are budgeted to increase $193,546, primarily due to new growth in the city. A 1% charge for services rate increase supported by the 2018 Water Rate Analysis. Operating expenses (excluding transfers) are budgeted to increase $44,870 (includes CIP). Transfers out to the General Fund for operating costs were reviewed in 2018 and show a budgeted increase of approximately 3%. In 2012, the City issued $6.1 million of 2012A G.O. Capital Improvement Plan Bonds to fund the 2012 purchase and improvement of the building at 600 Clydesdale Trail for use as the Medina public works/police facility. The Water Fund will be transferring amounts equal to 9% of the debt service payments on the CIP bonds through February 1, 2034. Additionally, in 2012, the City recharacterized $1.4 million of the remaining outstanding 2007A G.O. Water Revenue bonds. The debt was removed from the Water Fund as revenue bonds and was correspondingly reestablished as CIP bonds to assist in the financing of improvements of the building at 600 Clydesdale Trail for use as the Medina public works/police facility. The Water Fund will be transferring amounts equal to 9% of the debt service payments on the recharacterized bonds (since refinanced by the 2013A G.O. Refunding Bonds) through February 1, 2023.

The CIP includes a long-term financing plan that allows the City to allocate funds for these projects based on assigned priorities. The five-years within the CIP provides the City with an opportunity to evaluate project priorities annually and to adjust the timing, scope and cost of projects as new information becomes available. The information contained in this plan represents an estimate of improvement costs based on present knowledge and expected conditions. A capital improvement is defined as a major non-recurring expenditure related to the City’s physical facilities and grounds. The CIP also distinguishes between projects contained in the City’s operating budgets and capital improvement projects financed through the City’s capital funds and public utility funds. The CIP is predicated on the goals and policies established by the City Council, including general development, redevelopment, and maintenance policies that are part of the City’s Comprehensive Plan. A primary objective of the CIP is to identify projects that further these goals and policies in a manner consistent with funding opportunities and in coordination with other improvement projects. (The CIP will be compiled and presented separately.)

NORTHWEST ASSOCIATED CONSULTANTS, INC. __________________________________________________________________ 4150 Olson Memorial Highway, Ste. 320, Golden Valley, MN 55422 Telephone: 763.957.1100 Website: www.nacplanning.com PLANNING REPORT TO: Medina City Council FROM: Nate Sparks DATE: November 20, 2020 MEETING DATE: December 1, 2020 RE: Baker Park – Outdoor Learning Center – Shower Building/Infirmary CITY FILE: LR-20-281 Review Deadline Application Received: October 9, 2020 Conditional Use Permit Review Deadline: February 7, 2021 BACKGROUND Three Rivers Park District has made an application for a Conditional Use Permit Amendment to add a 1,900 square foot shower and infirmary building at the Outdoor Learning Center property located at 4001 County Road 24. The site received a CUP for the Outdoor Learning Center which included the main lodge and eight cabins in 1997. The CUP was amended in 2010 to include and administrative office building on the site. The CUP is attached for reference. PROJECT SITE The site is located south of County Road 24 and east of Baker Park Road (County Road 19). As stated above, the site includes cabins, a lodge, sanitary facilities, an administrative office, and a maintenance shed. The parcel is 291 acres in size with a vast majority of the site being part nature preservation. The property is zoned PS, Public/Semi-Public. It is guided for a Park, Recreation, and Open Space use in the Comprehensive Plan. The property also lies within the Shoreland District, as it is riparian to Lake Katrina. Agenda Item # 7C PROJECT DESCRIPTION The applicant is seeking to add the 1,900 square foot building to the existing campus. It is to be located south of the cabins and north of the maintenance building. The location of the building and aerial photo is shown on the attached “Site Context” map. The building is intended to be used for an “infirmary” for anyone who may become sick or injured while staying on-site, shower rooms for those using the cabins, laundry facilities, and storage. It is intended to serve the users of the facility and not intended to expand its capacity. The architecture of the building is intended to match the cabins with log siding. The roof will be metal. They intend to place a limited amount of solar panels on the roof. The facility will be linked to the cabin area via ADA accessible pathways. A retaining wall will be used to accommodate the building area and access drive. The access drive will link the site to the maintenance shed. APPLICATION REVIEW Section 826.71 of the Zoning Ordinance states that “outdoor recreational and open space uses operated by a governmental agency or conservation group” is permitted as a conditional use within the PS District. Therefore, this accessory structure would require an amendment to the existing conditional use permit to be included on the premises. Structure Setbacks The PS District has setback requirements of 50 feet to the front and 30 feet to the sides and rear. The Shoreland Ordinance requires a 150 foot setback to the ordinary high water mark of a natural environment lake for any structure or a septic system. The building is located central to a 291 acre parcel. It is well over 1000 feet to the front and side lot lines and over 600 feet to Lake Katrina. Lighting The lighting proposed is limited and is not near a property line. It is generally consistent with the City’s lighting ordinance. Exterior Finish The building is intended to have a log cabin look to match the existing structures on site. This conforms to the City’s building material ordinance. Landscaping / Tree Preservation The applicant proposes to remove 15 trees to allow for the construction of the building. The tree preservation ordinance would permit 5% of trees on the site to be removed. To remove 15 trees without replacement, a site would need to have 300 trees. In this case, there are substantially more trees on the site. The Park District indicates that the trees proposed for removal are of lower quality. Disturbed areas are intended to be replaced with natural landscaping to match the area. A raingarden with appropriate plantings is proposed. Wetlands The proposed building is over 150 feet from the nearest wetland. The applicant is proposing a 75-foot buffer around the portion of the wetland downhill from the proposed construction. This area is heavily wooded, so no planting will be required. However, the buffer will be formalized. Parking The use of the building is intended for existing staff and the users of the site. No additional staff will be assigned to this building therefore the building will not increase parking demand. The parking area will remain at the administrative office building. Overflow parking areas are available at the maintenance shed. Utilities The site has existing septic systems which serve the existing structures. The applicant proposes a new septic system to serve this structure. Staff recommends requiring a detailed septic plan to be provided. With the amount of land available, Staff believes finding a location for an adequate septic system will not be an issue. Solar Equipment The applicant stated that they intend to add solar panels to the roof. Section 828.09 of the Zoning Ordinance has requirements for solar panels including a 70% roof coverage limitation and pitch requirements. Such panels will need to meet these code requirements. CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT REVIEW Conditional uses may be approved by the City, provided the use meets the review criteria found in Section 825.39 of the Zoning Ordinance: 1. That the conditional use will not be injurious to the use and enjoyment of other property in the immediate vicinity for the purposes already permitted, nor substantially diminish and impair property values within the immediate vicinity. 2. That the establishment of the conditional use will not impede the normal and orderly development of surrounding vacant property for uses predominant in the area. 3. That adequate utilities, access roads, drainage and other necessary facilities have been or are being provided. 4. That adequate measures have been or will be taken to provide sufficient off-street parking and loading space to serve the proposed use. 5. That adequate measures have been or will be taken to prevent or control offensive odor, fumes, dust, noise and vibration, so that none of these will constitute a nuisance, and to control lighted signs and other lights in such a manner that no disturbance to neighboring properties will result. 6. The use, in the opinion of the City Council, is reasonably related to the overall needs of the City and to the existing land use. 7. The use is consistent with the purposes of the zoning code and the purposes of the zoning district in which the applicant intends to locate the proposed use. 8. The use is not in conflict with the policies plan of the City. 9. The use will not cause traffic hazard or congestion. 10. Existing businesses nearby will not be adversely affected by intrusion of noise, glare or general unsightliness. Because the proposed building is accessory and will not substantially increase the level of activity, traffic, or other factors, Staff believes these findings can be made. STAFF RECOMMENDATION The proposed structure will serve existing visitors and staff. The building is not near any setbacks and will not have any impacts on adjacent properties. Staff recommends approval of the request. PLANNING COMMISSION RECOMMENDATION The Planning Commission recommended approval of the request with the listed conditions. The first two conditions were included on previous approvals and are on-going requirements, while the remainder are relevant to the current project: 1. The Applicant shall maintain “No Parking” signs around the circular drive area in locations approved by the Fire Marshal. 2. The Applicant shall provide coordinated overflow parking at the Turkey Barn (maintenance shed), located south of the office building, during larger events at the lodge. 3. Construction shall generally adhere to the plans provided. 4. A septic plan shall be provided. 5. A wetland buffer shall be provided for the wetland near the site. 6. Roof mounted solar panels shall meet City zoning requirements at the time of permit application. 7. All comments of the City Engineer shall be addressed. 8. The Applicant shall obtain required Minnehaha Creek Watershed District approvals. 9. The Applicant shall pay to the City a fee in an amount sufficient to reimburse the City for the cost of reviewing the preliminary plat, construction plans, and other relevant documents. POTENTIAL ACTION If, following review, the Council concurs that the application meets the CUP criteria noted above, the following action could be made: Motion to direct staff to prepare a resolution approving the amended CUP subject to the conditions recommended by the Planning Commission.

He reviewed the original approval and structures that have received approval since that time. He stated that the subject parcel is 291 acres in size and zoned public/semi-public. He stated that because this is a conditional use, an amendment would be needed for improvements and/or additional structures. He displayed an aerial photograph and identified the existing structures, noting that the new building would be located south of the office and cabins and north of the maintenance shed. He stated that the new building would be designed to match the cabins on the property and would be about 1,900 square feet. He stated that it would include showers, an infirmary area, along with storage and laundry. He stated that the building would not increase the capacity of the site. He noted that tree replacement would not be required as the tree removal would be minimal and within the limitations of Code. He provided details on the proposed solar panels and established wetland buffer area that would be protected from construction. He stated that staff recommends approval subject to the conditions noted in the staff report. Jason Zemke, Three Rivers Park District, provided background information on the development on this site noting that a shower building was originally contemplated but the buildings were constructed in phases. He noted that the infirmary space is a State requirement, and they are looking forward to better serving the users of this site. He noted that previously there were bussing campers to the campground for showers and this would be a much more efficient feature. Nielsen commented that she has stayed in the cabins at the site and the showers would be a nice addition. Reid opened the public hearing at 8:48 p.m. No comments. Reid closed the public hearing at 8:49 p.m. Galzki commented that he camped at Baker Park as a child and having the shower building close to the campsite was a benefit. He stated that this will be an improvement to the site. Piper echoed the comments of support. Grajczyk agreed that this will be a nice addition to that area of the park. Couri stated that she has also stayed at this site and showers will be a welcome amenity. Popp stated that he likes the inclusion of the sustainable design elements.

Address: 4001 County Road 24, Medina MN 55359 (PID#2011823210004) Existing site is approximately 291 acres in size. The site is used for outdoor educational learning activities. The new 1,9005f shower and infirmary building will be used by day -time campers and night-time campers all year round. Approximately 20 employees will be on site during the summer. The current zoning is PS Public/Semi-Public zoning district. Outdoor recreational uses operated by government agency in the current zoning district requires a conditional use permit. The proposed building addition would expand the existing conditional use for this site. The 1,9005f single story building will have the following rooms: three accessible shower rooms, one assisted use bathroom/shower room, four shower rooms, three accessible restrooms, one regular restroom, infirmary room, laundry room, mechanical room, and maintenance storage area. Building will have accessible paths leading up to the main doors into the building. Covered porch will also surround the main entries of the building. Lights will be installed on the building and will be consistent to other buildings on the site. The single story building will be approximately 22 feet tall. The exterior walls will be cladded with log siding and have exposed glulam beams to match the architecture of other cabins on the site. The building will have a metal standing seam roof. The project is being funded with State Funds and is required to meet State B3 Sustainable Guidelines. A number of sustainable design elements are being proposed to meet these guidelines. For example: solar panels on the roof, clear story windows for natural light and rain gardens around the building. The building will be constructed of Structural Insulated Panels offering a high insolation factor. High Efficiency I-aVAC Equipment and LED Lighting for MEP strategies. The building will utilize many recycled and low carbon materials in meeting these Goals. The B3 Project Page can be found on the Minnesota B3 Project Website. Existing grades on site will require retaining walls to be used to help minimize disturbed areas while meeting ADA Guidelines to the building through the site. In coordination with TRPD Forestry Staff some low quality trees, less desirable trees will need to be removed to allow for the building placement. Three Rivers Park District will provide and install landscaping at disturbed areas and will be consistent with the nature of the site. Rain gardens will also have plants that are compatible with soil conditions and sun exposure. New well and septic system will be installed. Propane tank will also be installed for heating the building. New electrical service will be required to the building. The access road from the Maintenance Building will be widened to allow for Fire Department Truck access to this end of the site and building location. The new shower, restroom and infirmary building is required for TRPD to efficiently operate camp activities and functions. The proposed project will help the current outdoor educational learning center for many years into the future. Thank you for your consideration in expanding the existing conditional use on this property.

The Medina City Council has directed that the City advance toward the fire service district/JPA model based on the 2020 Matrix Study. This approach will allow regional sharing of equipment and personnel resources under the governance of a board of representative elected officials, the sharing of costs among solid financial partners (surrounding cities) and permit us to safeguard the continued delivery of effective emergency services to the residents of Medina and its neighbors in a time when recruiting , training and retaining volunteer firefighters has become more challenging. Given the direction from the Medina City Council, the City does not want the contract with your department to renew automatically when it expires on December 31, 2022. Accordingly, pursuant to Section 20 of the Amended and Restated Contract for Fire Protection dated January 1, 2018 between your fire department and the City of Medina, this letter constitutes Medina’s two year written notice that the contract is terminated, effective December 31, 2022. Consistent with the letter sent to your attention on October 7, 2020, we propose that the contract be amended to include the following to promote a regional fire services approach: 1. That we amend the agreement between Medina and your department to provide that termination without cause can occur upon one-year’s advance notice and that the contract will automatically renew (unless terminated per the provision below) for successive one-year periods. 2. That we amend the contract to include a mutual agreement clause to permit transition, upon thirty-days advance agreement, to a joint powers agreement and/or a future fire services taxing jurisdiction. I will contact you shortly to discuss the next steps.

TO: City Council FROM: Jason Nelson, Director of Public Safety, Through City Administrator Scott Johnson DATE: November 23, 2020 RE: Department Updates Last week Administrative Assistant Klaers, Sergeant Boecker and I spent two days reviewing our policy and procedure manual. This is something that is usually done every other year from front to back. We had not updated the manual for the past two and a half years as Chief Belland wanted me to determine how policies were dictated after I was promoted. There are mandatory policies from the Police Officers Standards Training (POST) Board that are reviewed annually and changed as case law or legislative direction merits. The new policy manual will be rolled out to the staff on December 15, 2020. This is no small undertaking as it is very labor intensive to ensure all the federal, state, and local court decisions are taken into account along with legislative decisions. It has been a very busy two weeks on the COVID front. With the spike in COVID cases across Minnesota, we at the police department have not been immune to it. Several officers have been tested and quarantined due to exposers. As you can imagine, this affects not only the officers that are being asked to quarantine, but also their partners as they are required to work more hours. We continue to utilize the disinfectant equipment that has been purchased to get our squads, squad room and entire police department as clean as possible. To date, we as a Lakes Area Emergency Group are as close to activating our lakes area emergency staffing plan as we ever have been. All area departments have been impacted and we are monitoring staffing levels daily. I reached out to our fire departments. Most indicate that COVID is also impacting their agencies but not to the level where there are any concerns about service interruptions. They too are meeting and talking with their mutual aid partners on a regular basis. Sergeant Boecker is on vacation currently and it is well deserved. Sergeant Boecker has been doing a fantastic job since his promotion managing the patrol officers and keeping up with all his administrative duties. He has been a big addition to the management team. Last week Officer McGill put together our annual cold weather / night qualification firearms shoot at the Delano Range. In the past, this has been something where we all get together after for dinner but because of COVID we were not able to do that part of the teambuilding this year. MEMORANDUM I continue to get positive praise from community members about our police officers. The past two weeks I have received emails, faxes and phone calls about officers and their performance. It is always nice to receive the positive feedback as I believe that our officers go above and beyond even in difficult times, which is what we all strive to do. Investigations: Officers responded to a theft in progress at Target. Upon arrival, two suspects were apprehended and will be charged with theft. I executed a search warrant on the suspect’s vehicle and located numerous stolen items from Target. Suspects have been stealing from the business over the last few weeks. Suspects will be charged via formal complaint. Investigating another theft from Target. I have been able to positively identify one of the suspects involved. Making attempts to identify the second suspect. Completed a background investigation for a new reserve officer applicant. There are currently (11) cases assigned to investigation. MEMORANDUM TO: City Council, through City Administrator Scott Johnson FROM: Steve Scherer, Public Works Director DATE: November 20, 2020 MEETING: December 1, 2020 SUBJECT: Public Works Update STREETS • The streets are in good “winter” condition after our final grade. As is usual, the approach of colder temperatures and frost will move the streets around and some will become rough. • The signpost at Walnut and Cedar was recently hit, so the sign was reset. WATER/SEWER/STORMWATER • Public Works repaired a damaged hydrant at Loram after a forklift backed into it. • As mentioned previously, the new 2020-2025 MS-4 Stormwater Permit is available. I will review the permit with engineering and include Lisa DeMars to assist in the development of our maintenance policy. We had the first of what we are sure will be many conference calls to begin completion of the thirty-two-page application. • The carp gate on Ardmore Creek is scheduled for installation on Monday, November 23rd. The project is expected to take a couple of days. PARKS/TRAILS • The tunnel under the R/R crossing at Highway 12 and Baker Park Road is complete. We received our first complaint regarding graffiti and cars driving through the tunnel. I am looking into who owns responsibility for the tunnel as it was a Three Rivers project on City and R/R right of way. Medina will need to replace a portion of the trail which was badly damaged when the tunnel was built and the sewer line was moved. • Public Works will flood the skating rink and make snow when conditions are right. • Public Works responded to a graffiti complaint at the Hamel Community Center.
