Mayor Lizee; Councilmembers Bailey (arrived at 5:05 P.M.), Turgeon, Woodruff and Zerby; Administrator Heck; Planning Director Nielsen; Director of Public Works Brown; and Engineer Landini Absent: None B. Review Agenda Woodruff moved, Turgeon seconded, approving the agenda as presented. Motion passed 4/0. Councilmember Bailey arrived at 5:05 P.M. 2. STREET IMPROVEMENT DISTRICT, DISCUSSION Engineer Landini explained the meeting packet contained a revised resolution seeking statutory authority to implement a street improvement district as well as a revised letter to the City's elected legislators requesting them to author the bill to obtain this authority. This authority would allow the City to collect fees from property owners witbin a district to fund municipal street maintenance, reconstruction and facility upgrades. Currently this option for funding roadway improvements is not available to any city in Minnesota. He stated Council will be asked to take action on this item during its regular meeting following this work session. All Councilmembers were satisfied that the changes to the resolution and letter discussed during the February 2, 2009, Council work session had been made. Mayor Lizee thanked Engineer Landini for his efforts. 3. COMPREHENSIVE PLAN REVIEW Director Nielsen stated Council commented on the Land Use and Natural Resources Chapters of the Comprehensive Plan (Comp Plan) at its February 2, 2009, work session, and Council is being asked to comment on the Transportation and Community Facilities/Services Chapters this evening. He requested they provide substantive comments only. Nielsen explained he received additional comments and suggested changes from Councilmember Woodruff about the Land Use Chapter since the February 2" d work session, and lie wanted Council to review four of them. #Za CITE' OF SHOREWOOD WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES February 23, 2009 Page 2 of 3 The following are the additional changes agreed to for the Land Use Chapter. ➢ Page LU-10, item 7 - Delete "A commercial maintenance code shall be formulated." ➢ Page LU-11, paragraph 2 - Change "Shorewood's lack of a `traditional downtown' and Excelsior's strong identity in that regard further add to the problem." to "Shorewood's lack of a `traditional downtown' adds to the problem." ➢ Page LU- 15, paragraph 3, sentence 3 - Change "To the extent feasible, priority should be given to "To the extent feasible, attention should be given ➢ LU-27, last paragraph - Change the City should update its current zoning regulations to accommodate and encourage senior housing to the City may consider updating its current zoning regulations to accommodate and encourage senior housing ➢ Page LU-28, solar access protection - After discussion there was consensus to leave this as is.

MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR There were no matters from the floor presented this evening. Mayor Lizee noted there were a few students in the audience this evening to observe a Council meeting as part of a school project. 5. REPORTS AND PRESENTATIONS A. Recognition of Service On behalf of the Council and the residents of Shorewood, Mayor Lizee thanked former Planning Commissioner Bruce Gniffke for his almost five years of service as a Planning Commissioner and provided him with a plaque of appreciation and recognition. Mr. Gniffke thanked Council for the opportunity, and stated he has been a resident of the City since 1952. On behalf of the Council and the residents of Shorewood, Mayor Lizee thanked former Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Boardmember Richard Siakel (who was not present this evening) for his year of service as an LMCD Boardmember, noting he was chosen as the LMCD's Representative of the Year at its 2009 Save-the-Lake banquet. She stated he will be sent a plaque of appreciation and recognition. On behalf of the Council and the residents of Shorewood, Mayor Lizee thanked former Park Commissioner Howard Young (who was not present this evening) for his nine years of service as a Park Commissioner. She noted Mr. Young remains very involved ~v Ith the community. She stated he will be sent a plaque of appreciation and recognition. On behalf of the Council and the residents of Shorewood, Mayor Lizee thanked former Park Commissioner Robert Hensley (who was not present this evening) for his over three years of service as a Park Commissioner. She noted Mr. I-lenslcy and his wife are very involved with the community. She stated he will be sent a plaque of appreciation and recognition. B. Report on Council's Role on a Joint Powers Agreement Mayor Lizee stated Attorney Tietjen will highlight her memorandum which provides a brief summary of the legal authority and powers of a joint powers entity; a copy of the memorandum was included in the meeting packet for this meeting. Attorney Tietjen highlighted the main points of her memorandum. She explained Minnesota Statutes provides two or more government entities the authority to enter into intergovernmental agreement to combine resources and efforts to accomplish things the entities could not do alone. The establishment of a true joint powers organization creates a separate legal entity run by a governing board that has certain distinct powers and obligations governed by a Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) between the parties. The joint entity may jointly or cooperatively exercise its powers pursuant to terms outlined in the JPA. The joint entity has the power to own property, receive and expend fluids, enter into contracts, hire employees, and sue or be sued. The governing board acts as an independent governing body, which consists of representatives from the individual members, and it has decision making power for the joint entity consistent with the terms of the JPA. Tietjen then explained there are unique rules related to liability issues and insurance coverage for joint powers entities. Minnesota Statutes was amended such that the joint powers entity is liable for the acts or SHORE OD CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES February 239 2009 Rage 3 of 16 omissions of another participating governmental unit only if it agreed to that in writing. It was also amended such that the individual members and the joint powers entity are considered a single government unit for purposes of determining liability for damages. A single member can not be held liable to the limit under State Statutes. Typically joint powers entities have their own liability insurance coverage. Tietjen explained the cities of Excelsior, Greenwood, Shorewood and Tonka Bay entered into a JPA for the provision of police services in 1998. The South Lake Minnetonka Police Department (SLMPD) JPA establishes a Coordinating Committee as the SLMPD governing body, and the Committee consists of the mayors of the member cities. There are certain obligations the Committee must fulfill and it has other discretionary powers. The individual member cities also have certain rights and obligations under the JPA. These obligations, powers and rights are listed in the memorandum. Tietjen went on to explain there have been four amendments to the SLMPD JPA. Amendments two, three and four deal with how budgeting for police services is handled. The fourth amendment, which is the most recent, was agreed to in 2006 pursuant to a binding arbitration order that was issued to resolve a dispute between the member cities regarding budget issues. This fourth amendment changed the JPA in three ways: 1) it changed the term of the JPA through December 31, 21023, and established specific terms for withdrawal from the JPA; 2) it added a section requiring the parties to follow a certain process for dispute resolution; and, 3) it replaced the budgeting process previsions with a new process for determining the member cities' contributions and for approving the budget. Effective January 1, 2007, the annual operating budget must be approved by all four member,cities. If that does not occur by September 1 of each year, the JPA specifies a process that must be followed to determine the budget. Shorewood's annual contribution was set to 50 percent of the approved operating budget. Mayor Lizee stated the review of how the joint powers organizations operate was very timely. She noted the City is also a member of the Excelsior Fire District (EFD) joint powers organization which consists of the four SLMPD member cities plus the City of Dcephaven. She also noted the EFD was a paid-on-call fire department. She stated there was a recent article written by Lori Sturdevant and published in the Star Tribune which discussed the need to streamline state, county and local governments. It also discussed the importance of local govermmems researching what types of services could be provided through cooperative efforts. In response to a comment from CoLmCllmember Turgeon, Attorney Tietjen clarified the SLMPD Coordinating Committee is the govern ing body for the SLMPD pursuant to the terms of the SLMPD JPA, and it has the decision making authority for the SLMPD. Administrator Heck stated the same applies to EFD joint powers organizations and the EFD Governing Board. 6. PUBLIC HEARING None. 7. PARKS Commissioner Quinlan reported on matters considered and actions taken at the February 10, 2009, Park Commission meeting (as detailed in the minutes of that meeting). He elaborated on the Commission's consideration of South Tonka Little League's request for amendments to the City's Zoning Code that would allow advertising signs at the ball field in Freeman Park. He noted the Commission unanimously recommends that request be denied, and that there is a public hearing slated for the March 3, 2009, Planning Commission meeting. He stated Commissioner Norman was selected as Chair of the Commission and Commissioner Davis was selected as Vice-Chair. SHOREWOOD CITY COUNCIL, REGULAR MEETING MINUTES February 23, 2009 Page 4 of 16 In response to a question from Councilmember Bailey, Commissioner Quinlan explained the Park Commission did not believe the League's reasons justified a change and the City Code strongly discourages bill-board type signage. Quinlan also stated aesthetics were also a concern. He explained that approximately one half of the neighboring communities allow some types of signage in their city parks and the other half does not. He commented the Planning Commission wanted tine Park Commission to discuss this request. Mayor Liz& clarified the Park Commission discussed this item and only made a recommendation. Councilmember Woodruff stated on Thursday morning there is a tour of the City's parks which is the official kick-off of the project to update the City's Park Master Plan. He then stated he attended a recent Park Foundation meeting during which he encouraged the Foundation to have representatives come before Council to discuss Foundation activities and to meet with the Park Commission. A. Accept Quote for Eddy Station Facility Maintenance Mayor Liz6e stated the Park Commission recommends Council approVe, a contract with Koelmen Painting in the amount of $5,560 for services to perform maintenance on the exterior of Eddy Station located in Freeman Park. The facility's exterior is in need of maintenance. 'l`lhe Commission recommends moving this project from the 2010 Park Capital Improvement Progr'a h,(CIP) to the 2009 CIP. The CIP has $3,000 budgeted for this effort. The additional amount of $2,560 can be funded out of Park reserves. Woodruff moved, Zerby seconded, accepting the proposal provided by Koehuen Painting for $5,560 for the Eddy Station Facility Maintenance. Motion passed 510. 8. PLANNING Director Nielsen reported on matters considered and actions taken at the February 17, 2009, Planning Commission meeting (as detailed bi the minutes of that meeting). 9. ENGINEERING/PUBLIC WORKS A. Seeking Statutory Authority to Implement a Street Improvement District Engineer Landini explained the meeting packet for this meeting contained a draft resolution seeking statutory authority to implement a street improvement district as well as a letter to the City's elected legislators requesting them to author the bill to obtain this authority. A street improvement district would allow the city to spread the cost of projects over more properties and over a longer period of time. This financial tool is transparent in that fees collected within a street improvement district would be collected and used for municipal street maintenance, reconstruction and facility upgrades. This tool would also allow the city to perform street maintenance and reconstruction on schedule. Timely maintenance is essential to preserving streets and thereby protecting taxpayer investments. Given the current economy, this preservation is more important than ever. If the City were granted the authority, it would have to hold a public hearing before establishing a district. Landini stated Staff recommends Council approve of the resolution and direct Staff to submit the letter and resolution to Shorewood's elected Legislators. Councilmember Zerby stated currently the City has two options for funding roadway improvements. The property owners along the roadway can be assessed some amount of the cost, or funds from the General Fund can be used for this purpose noting all property owners contribute to the General Fund. The street Director Brown stated if the State Legislature granted the City the authority to set up a street improvement district it does not bind the City to do so. In response to a question from Councilmember Bailey, Administrator Heck stated he did not anticipate the City would incur any cost to make this request other than the possibility that he may have to testify during a committee hearing to consider the request and he considers activities like that part of his job. In response to another question from Bailey, Heck stated the League of Minnesota Cities and Metro Cities would lobby on behalf of cities making this request. Woodruff moved, Turgeon seconded, Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 09-012, "A Resolution Requesting Authority to Establish a Municipal Street Improvement District", and directing Staff to submit the resolution and request letter to Shorewood's elected N: gislators. In response to a question from Councilmember Bailey, Administrator Heck stated because Minnesota cities are losing state aid and the Minnesota Department of Ti-ansportition budget constraints this request may have a better chance of getting approved. Councilmember Woodruff commented the Metro Cities Revenue and Taxation Policy Committee has discussed street improvement districts for the last two years. Motion passed 510. B. Authorize to Advertise a Request for Qualifications for Engineering Services Director Brown stated Staff would like to establish a pool of qualified engineering services consultants to draw upon for implementation of various Capital Improvement Program projects. Staff has provided Council with a brief statement of qualifications which will be modified to include a fee schedule. Council has also been provided with a timetable for soliciting the statements of qualifications from firms and selecting the pool of firms. Zerby moved, Woodruff seconded, directing Staff to collect Statements of Qualifications to use in creating a pool of Engineering Service Consultants. Councilmember Woodruff stated he whole heartedly supported the idea. He questioned if an engineering firm would have to be on the list to be considered for projects, to which Director Brown stated yes. Woodruff stated that should be clarified in the statement of qualifications. Motion passed 510. C. Survey Result from the Smithtown Lane/Ilarding Lane Public Information Meeting Engineer Landini stated Staff conducted a public information meeting on January 27, 2009, to discuss the potential reconstruction of Harding Lane and Smithtown Lane. At the information meeting Staff distributed a survey to use in gathering input about the residents support for reconstructing the roadways and installing municipal water as part of the projects. Out of the 26 property owners adjacent to these roadways, 15 completed the survey. Eighty percent of the property owners who completed and submitted the surveys do not want the roadways reconstructed and 60 percent do not want municipal water service SHOREWO D CI'T'Y COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINU'T'ES February 23, 2009 Page 6 of 16 installed. Many of the residents expressed concern about assessments for water main in the present economic climate. Landini explained the next step in this process would be for Council to direct Staff to obtain the right-of- way required for the Smithtown Lane cul-de-sac, procure a survey for the right-of-way and initiate a feasibility study. He stated if Council did not want to move forward with this next phase in the process Council could chose to hold a public information meeting on the possible reconstruction of Meadowview Road and Nelsine Drive. Those two roadways are next in priority. Landini stated Staff requests direction from Council about how to proceed. Director Brown stated Councilmembers Bailey and Zerby attended the information meeting, and he had asked them to comment on the meeting. One of their critiques was Staff needed to clearly understand and convey that its ultimately Council's decision; not the residents. Yet, it is important for Staff to accurately communicate the residents' comments and make sure they are part of the public record. He commented the Cities of Minnetonka and Plymouth are foregoing a number of projects this year because of their impact on the property owners adjacent to the roadways. Mayor Liz6e asked how many property owners attended the information meeting, to which Engineer Landini responded there were eight and noted seven other property owners also completed the survey. Liz6e stated based on the results 12 out of 26 property owners indicated they' did not want the roadways reconstructed and 9 did not want municipal water installed. She was not sure that was sufficient justification to conclude the majority did not want the projects done. She expressed concern about the lack of response. Councihnember Bailey stated he was not surprised v ith the results. Although Engineer Landini and Director Brown did a great job making the presentation at the meeting, the issue of funding was a concern for the property owners. The property owners want to know if they are going to be assessed for the improvements. Unless the funding' issue is resolved he thought this is the type of response the City would continue to receive. He recommended Council quickly determine how to fund these types of projects. Councilmember Zerby stated the m,o roadways are different. He commented he had asked one property owner if the project did not cost him anything would lie want it and the individual said no because of the inconvenience during construction. He then stated Smithtown Lane was more of a rustic style road, and the anticipated location of the reconstructed road could be different than the current location and result in loss of trees. Harding Lane would be reconstructed in its current footprint, but residents had concern about access and parking during construction. Mayor Liz6e stated it was difficult to know many details about a project until a feasibility study has been done. Councilmember Woodruff stated funds were allocated in the General Fund for the reconstruction of these two roadways in 2009. From his vantage point, these two projects can be started while Council determines how to fund future projects. He requested Staff break out the survey responses by roadway for both reconstruction and installation of water, and that the property owners be identified. He stated that although Council has to be cautious to not be too heavy handed, there are a great number of roadways that are substandard. It is Council's responsibility to make the tough decisions before the City's roadways become a catastrophe. Mayor Liz6e expressed concern that the majority of the residents did not provide the City with feedback. She thought it would be a mistake to reconstruct roadways without considering the utility infrastructure at SHOREWOOD CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES February 23, 2009 Page 7 of 16 the same time; it's prudent for Council to consider the broader picture when considering projects. She thought it would be beneficial to have a break out of the survey respondents by roadway and water installation. Director Brown stated based on experience, the issue of roadway width always surfaces with roadway reconstruction projects. He explained that in the past the City has used the process of pavement reclamation instead of reconstruction in certain situations, although not frequently. The reclamation approach is not as cost effective over the long term; the cost for reclamation is approximately 55 - 60 percent of the cost to reconstruct. He noted the reclamation approached was used on Strawberry Lane about fourteen years ago and it has performed well. Councilmember Turgeon commented there are approximately 12 properties on both Smithtown Lane and Harding Lane and both have cut-de-sacs. She questioned if it would not be better to invest roadway improvement dollars to first improve roadways with higher traffic. Director Brown stated he had discussed this with Turgeon prior to the meeting; the rating for roadways could be adjusted to reflect higher traffic volumes if Council desires. He commented higher-traffic roadways deteriorate faster; therefore, the impact of traffic is indirectly factored into the rating. Councilmember Woodruff stated Council discussed the 20-yc_lr PaWcment Management Plan (PMP) in depth for 2009 and 2010 roadway improvements. He expressed concern that if Council wanted to revisit the City would lose the opportunity for any roadway reconstruction in 2009. He stated he was not as concerned about the money because he thought the 2009 revenue and expense budgets were sound, and these two projects have been budgeted for. He stated to not do these types of projects because of the economy would be wrong because that would put more people out of work. The City has a healthy budget and financial situation to do projects that are needed. Councilmember Turgeon questioned how much impact the residents' input should have in making a decision. Engineer Landini stated going on memory he thought five property owners on Smithtown Lane responded to the survey and of those only one was in favor of reconstructing this road. That would leave ten Harding Lane property owners responding and eight of them were against the reconstruction. He noted he had since received an email from another Harding Lane property owner who was against the reconstruction. In response to a comment from Councilmember Bailey, Director Brown explained asphalt reclamation involves removing asphalt, grinding it up and reapplying. Brown stated Staff recommends the roadways be reconstructed because it is a better investment for the City. Brown explained asphalt reclamation has an approximate 20 year life, while a reconstructed road has an approximate 30 - 35 year life. Also, the reclamation approach does not allow the City the opportunity to correct drainage issues because edge control would not be installed, and safety issues tend not to be corrected. He noted there are a number of drainage issues along Harding Lane. He explained the cost comparison of 55 - 60 percent for reclamation versus reconstruction may be low because reconstruction costs include edge control. He stated that although the reclamation effort for Strawberry Lane has performed well, after 14 years it is starting to show wear and tear. In response to a request from Councilmember Woodruff, Engineer Landini explained Harding Lane has 50 feet of right-of-way, and the proposed generic alignment and cul-de-sac fit within the existing paved surface. Smithtown Lane has 66 feet of right-of-way, but the proposed cul-de-sac for Smithtown Lane will require land procurement. Director Brown noted that a few property owners who attended the public information meeting indicated the right-of-way boundaries displayed for Smithtown Lane were not where they thought they should be. He stated one individual stated he had a survey that was contrary to that. SHOREWOOD CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES February 23, 2009 Page 8 of 16 Staff is concerned that although Hennepin County map shows a 66-foot-wide right-of-way for Smithtown Lane, it may actually be a statutory right-of-way; the City would not have the rights to that right-of-way. The right-of-way on Harding Lane is a platted right-of-way and it appears the City has the necessary right-of-way, noting there could be extra right-of-way needed to resolve drainage issues. This will not be known until further assessment has been done. Councilmember Woodruff recommended the Harding Lane project move forward from an engineering perspective because the City knows that it has the necessary easement to at least reconstruct the roadway. He would like to move forward with Harding Lane because it does not have easement issues like Smithtown Lane does. Councilmember Zerby stated he thought the property owners spoke "loud and clear" that they did not want the road reconstructed, and there are other improvement projects within the City that the budgeted funds could be used for. Because the City has limited funds, he did not think it was appropriate to do a project residents did not want done. Councilmember Bailey questioned if these projects were not done would they drop to the bottom of the priority list. He did not think it is appropriate for the City to revisit them year after year. Councilmember Zerby stated maybe they could be reconsidered in 2010. Bailey strit~d there is a finite amount of dollars for roadway reconstruction, and he suggested the roadways_that residents do not want reconstructed drop to the bottom of the list. Bailey thought it prudent to explain to the residents there are budgeted funds to reconstruct these roadways. Mayor Lizee stated Council has to determine the City's responsibility and the property owners' responsibility. A major issue with a proposed project in 2008 was the City could not acquire the necessary right-of-way. The City cannot delay projects forever. She recollects seeing photographs of serious drainage issues in properties adjacent to Harding Lane during the spring snow melt. She suggested the City move forward with projects where it has the necessary right-of-way. She stated engineering work would identify what other improvements should be considered and determine if additional easements are needed to do the improvements. Because the City has the necessary right-of-way to reconstruct Harding Lane, she recommends the City move forward with the next phase of this project. Administrator Heck commented that there are two Council work sessions scheduled in March to discuss roadway improvement projects,irncluding financing of projects. In response to a question from Mayor Lizee, Engineer Landini stated if Council wanted to consider the next phase of either reconstruction project Staff should be directed to solicit quotes for the construction. Councilmember Woodruff stated the major issue for the reconstruction of Smithtown Lane is the right-of- way for the cul-de-sac. Woodruff moved, Bailey seconded, directing Staff to obtain the right-of-way for the Smithtown Lane cul-de-sac, to procure surveys, and begin the feasibility studies for Harding Lane and Smithtown Lane. Councilmember Woodruff noted the motion was not an authorization to do the project. Councilmember Turgeon stated she wanted to separate the two projects as she did not think the Smithtown Lane project would be done during the summer of 2009. Administrator Heck stated at its February 2, 2009, work session Council discussed the goals for 2009. During the meeting Council requested some changes be made to the projects' descriptions. During that work session Council directed Staff to prioritize the projects and Cou!icil would review them and revise them if necessary at a subsequent meeting. The meeting packet for this meeting contains the revised descriptions as well a prioritized timeline chart. He asked Council for feedback on the priorities. Councilmember Woodruff requested Staff prepare a cross reference system between the project descriptions and the timeline chart. He stated he had difficulty matching up the items on the timeline chart and the projects' descriptions. Administrator Heck stated the pro'jects' descriptions and the timeline chart are organized by department. Councilmember Woodruff suggested the Vine Hill Road and Highway 7 study project be a higher priority than the Sign Inventory Project under Public Works. Administrator Heck clarified the projects and timeline actually are more of a work program. This is not how he would like to have the goals and priorities for 2010 developed. Councilmember Woodruff stated lie wanted Staff to get started on the projects. Councilmember Zerby stated he did not disagree with any of the projects or the timeline. He thought they were great. B. Recycling Program Discussion Administrator Heck stated Councilmember Zerby expressed interest in having the City's recycling program reviewed to determine how to increase the amount of recyclable material collected and improve the recycling process. He then stated Zerby had indicated he was very impressed with Eden Prairie's single-sort system. Heck explained the meeting packet for this evening contained the City's contract with the current recycling services provider (Veolia), a memorandum outlining the details of the City's current recycling program, some information about organics recycling, and an executive surmnary of the City of Roseville's recycling pilot program conducted in 2004. The current contract with Veolia contains an option to extend the contract for 24 months and if the City chooses to do so it must notify Veolia of that decision by June 30, 2009. Veolia then has one month to determine if it wants to agree to the extension. If it does, the City and Veolia have until September 1, 2009, to finalize the agreement. He asked Zerby to comment on this topic. SHOREWOOD CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES February 23, 2009 Page 10 of 16 Councilmember Zerby stated the information he had been provided in early January 2009 about the City's recycling program and how the current recycling service provider was selected was from 2006. During its January 12, 2009 meeting, Council requested Staff assemble more current information about recycling options for Council discussion. The information from Roseville's pilot program was even older than the information for the City. He questioned if the Planning Commission or possibly the Park Commission should be involved in this effort. He stated Council has to decide if it wants to have a single-sort or dual- sort recycling system and the frequency of collections (weekly or bi-weekly). Although he had no specific supporting data to back this, he thought it may be possible to move to a bi-weekly single-sort system for approximately the same cost as the current weekly dual-sort system. He asked Council how it would like to proceed with this. Should it move forward at a committee level? Should a request for proposal (RFP) process be initiated based on simple cost structure? He stated based on his own experience and discussions with residents he strongly thought the current recycling program could be improved. Mayor Liz6e stated there are a number of companies that provide recycling services. Based on articles she has read in various newspaper publications there are number of variations that can be considered. One of the criterions that should be considered is what volume of recycled material collected is actually recycled. There are some companies that offer rewards programs for residents based on the volume they recycle. Hennepin County has a great program with an expansive list of opportunities. She suggested Council have a County representative present information about the Cou11ty's program, and that a concerted effort be made to solicit public input about recycling. Councilmember Turgeon stated the recycling system selected comes down to cost. There may be some issues if the frequency of recycling changes to+e clifferent than waste pickup, noting the City does not have just one City-wide refuse hauler. She suggested organics recycling discussions be done separately. Administrator Heck stated in order to be able to (let financial numbers for various options an RFP process should be completed. If that is what Council wants, it should direct Staff to do so. Councilmember Woodruff thought it is prudent to go through an RFP process. He commented that for the last recycling services RFP process a matrix of various options was prepared. He suggested that be done again. He requested Staff revicwthe City's current contract with Veolia and assess where Veolia has or has not satisfied the requirements of the contract. Councilmember Zerby stated that based on the minutes of a January 27, 2007, Council work session there appeared to have been a lot of worthwhile information researched and provided. There had been a group of cities that had collectively evaluated various recycling options and determined it was not feasible for all of them to use the same provider. Administrator Heck stated he has located the study and recommendations of that group. There was consensus to have Staff prepare an RFP. Councilmember Zerby stated the contact specifies Veolia provide the City with monthly reports on recycling volumes, noting he has never seen those reports. Mayor Liz& stated she wants Hennepin County to make a presentation to Council. C. Technology Committee Report and Recommendations Administrator Heck stated the Technology Committee held its first meeting on February 5, 2009, during which it reviewed and discussed the three proposals for telephone and data services. The Committee SHOREWOOD CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES February 239 2009 Page 11 of 16 recommends the City work with Warner Connect to provide a telephone infrastructure for City Hall and Public Works (the phone system will be hosted at Warner Connect), to provide off-site data storage and disaster recovery for the City's data systems, host the City's website, and provide internet service. Over time it may be possible to migrate the City's network servers off-site to a hosted system at Warner Connect. Warner Connect will develop a communications system using internet protocol telephones (VOIP). The system will interconnect City Hall and Public Works by using one T-1 line to City Hall and another to Public Works. Staff will have direct dial lines, voice mail, unified messaging, and other features. He commented Warner Connect worked with the City of Plymouth to revamp its entire telephone and data infrastructure, and Plymouth city staff spoke very highly of the work Warner Connect performed. Administrator Heck explained the cost for implementation is approximated at $17,000. Monthly fees are estimated to be $2,800; current fees for phones, internet, and data support are approximately $2,000 per month. Councilmember Zerby, a member of the Technology Committee, stated he was very impressed with Warner Connect representatives. He thought it would reduce some demand on Staff for things such as data backups and administering phones in the event of problems. Ile explained Warner Connect will be able to solve problems remotely because much of the technology will be located off-site at Warner Connect. Zerby moved, Woodruff seconded, approving the City work with Warner Connect to provide the telephone infrastructure for City Hall and Public Works in accordance with its proposal, and to provide off-site data storage and disaster recovery for the City's data systems. Motion passed 5/0. Administrator Heck stated the City currently has some employees that have mobile communications devices which are either paid for or reimbursed by the City. The Technology Committee thought it was prudent for the City to have a mobile communications policy so it drafted such a policy for Council's consideration. The Committee recommends approval of the policy. The policy states that for those individuals who are identified as needing to have a mobile communications device, the City will either provide the device or reimburse the employee for using their personal device for business purposes. In response to a question from COLUlcilmember Bailey, Administrator Heck stated he would be responsible for determining which employees need such a device. Bailey moved, Liz& seconded, adopting the City of Shorewood Mobile Communications Policy. Motion passed 510. D. Southshore Center Update Administrator Heck requested this item, which was originally scheduled to be discussed as Item 11.A.2 under Staff and Council reports, be discussed under General/New Business because it warranted more discussion than just an update. Administrator Heck explained the Friends of tile Southshore Community Center have dissolved and will not be managing the operations of the Center effective March 1, 2009. Therefore there is no need to continue to work on an amended lease agreement with the Friends, or to continue down the current path of amendments to the Cooperative Agreement between the five rnember cities. He stated the Southshore Center funding group met on February 20`x' to discuss what some of the immediate needs for keeping the Center operational are, while the five member cities determine the long-term future of the Center. He commented Councilmember Turgeon attended the meeting. SHOREWOOD CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES February 23, 2009 Page 12 of 16 Heck stated Council has been provided with a copy of a letter dated February 11"' from Tom Anderson, President of the Friends Board, informing the Cities of Deephaven, Excelsior, Greenwood, Shorewood and Tonka Bay of the dissolution of the Friends and outlining the situation. Council has also been provided with a copy of a memorandum he wrote to the other member cities' Managers or Administrators outlining the concerns that need to be addressed in order to keep the Center operational for the short term. There is a need for: a fiscal agent, a day-to-day contact person, and a rental agent; contact to be made with existing renters and users of the Center as well as future renters; contact to be made with Minnetonka Community Education (MCE); and, identifying the cost to operate the Center and funding for the operations. There are questions about the legality of existing rental agreements for use of the Center. Heck then stated during the February 20`x' meeting of the Southshore Center Funding Group there appeared to be general consensus that Shorewood could serve as the fiscal agent in the interim. There is approximately $1150 in Friends prepaid rent that must be transferred, and there are checks to deposit and bills to pay. Councilmember Turgeon stated during the Southshore Center Funding Group meeting, Excelsior and Greenwood representatives indicated they wanted the costs for the long-term care and maintenance of the facility to be split on an ad-valorem basis, not the proposed equal dinnilg by all member cities. There was disappointment expressed about the Friends decision to dissolve as some perceived the member cities had been working hard to reach agreement on lease and Cooperative Agreement amendments. All member cities must consider how much money they want to invest iii keeping the Center operational and in maintaining the facility. During the meeting someone asked whether or not the member cities would be willing to sell the facility if a buyer came forward, and the consensus around the table was yes. Mayor Lizee stated she was not able to attend the February 20`x' n;cctin~~, but she has attended other meetings of the group and the topic of selling the facility was never discussed. The Center is a community facility. Turgeon clarified the question asked was whether or not the cities would be willing to sell the facility; there was not any direct expressed interest in pursuing the sale of it. Councilmember Woodruff stated he was confused. The letter from Mr. Anderson is dated February 11`x' Based on his understanding of the Friend's lease agreement there is a 30-day termination notice clause. Therefore, he concluded the friends were in default. He questioned if the member cities should send the Friends a letter stating they arc in default. He stated he thought there is a 10-day cure period in the lease. Councilmember Turgeon stated during the February 20"' meeting, the group indicated the Friends should be sent a letter accepting the Friends termination of the lease. Attorney Tietjen explained the lease agreement states the lease agreement may be terminated upon the occurrence of one of two events; one is the insolvency or dissolution of the tenant (the Friends) and the other is the decision to terminate agreed to by two-thirds of the member cities. The lease stipulates written notice shall be provided to each of the cities and to the tenant 30 days in advance of effective date of termination. Councilmember Woodruff stated he wanted a default letter sent to the Friends to establish the rights of the cities. He then stated he was disturbed that Mr. Anderson's letter was written on February 11`x' and delivered on February 12`x', yet the Southshore Center Funding Group did not meet until February 20"'-. He was astounded by the lack of responsiveness. He questioned where the funding for operations will come from, and who will be responsible for what. Mayor Lizee noted income is received for the use of the Center; the Friends had projected there would be enough income to operate the Center in 2010. Woodruff stated he had not been provided with an income statement from the Friends or a business plan for the Center. SHOREWOOD CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES February 23, 2009 Page 13 of 16 Councilmember Turgeon stated all of the rental agreements the Friends entered into are now void, including the rental agreement with the newly established South Shore Senior Partners (SSSP). Mayor Liz& stated it is incumbent on the five cities who own the facility to step up and do something. She faults the cities for taking such a long time to reach agreement on the amendment to the lease agreement with the Friends, and for the controversy over the amendment to the Cooperative Agreement which resulted in delaying approval of the lease amendment. She stated all parties resulted in the delay of getting the amendments approved. She stated the cities need to get together and determine what actions must be taken to keep the Center operational until the cities make a decision about the long-term future of the Center. Councilmember Woodruff stated that when Mr. Anderson came before Council in December 2008 regarding the proposed lease amendment, he asked Mr. Anderson why there was a sense of urgency with the amendment as there was a lease in effect. It was his understanding that as a result of the amendment the cities would be made responsible for some of the Center's maintenance expenses, and those expenses for 2009 would have been funded by a $15,000 donation from the Friends. He asked Mr. Anderson if there was money needed from the five cities for operating the Center in 2009, to which Mr. Anderson responded no. Woodruff stated at that time lie did not understand what the sense of urgency was if the only issue was who would write the checks for facility maintenance between then and when the lease amendment was approved. He stated the situation has changed and the. $15,000 contribution from the Friends will not be made. Councilmember Woodruff requested the cities be provided with a business plan, the costs to the cities, pro forma budgets, a revenue plan, and recommendations for who is responsible for doing what in the short term. He questioned why the Friends couldn't financially make it if there is sufficient revenue from Center rentals to operate the Center. He stated he did not object to keeping the Center operational for a month while some of these things are resolved, but he wanted to know who will fiord the expenses. He then stated it is his understanding that the. Friends wrote a rental agreement for the facility with the SSSP for eight hours a day five days a week for some amount of money. He expressed concern the agreement is not valid as the Friends don't exist, vet SSSI' is tinder the impression it will take occupancy on March I". Councilmember Bailey stated he agreed with Councilmember Woodruff, and he thought this has turned into a financial fiasco. The Live cities do not have a business partner to rely on for funding the Center's operations. It appears that responsibility will become the cities; he does not think this should be the default position. If the cities are to become responsible for budgeting for operational expenses, then the cities should be explicitly discussing this. He questioned SSSP's ability to be a reliable operation. He recommended the cities quickly initiate discussion with SSSP, and if an agreement cannot be reached between the cities and SSSP then the cities may have to consider the possibility of shuttering the facility until some acceptable financial alternatives are presented to the cities. He suggested two parallel paths be pursued: one to find an acceptable tenant that is a financially viable organization and the other is consideration of putting the facility up for sale if a tenant cannot be found. Councilmember Turgeon stated the rent from the Center's anchor tenants is not great. The Historical Society pays $250 a month in rent, the Church pays $600 a month in rent (this rental agreement is through March 2009 only) for use every Sunday, and it is her understanding the rent for SSSP is $600 per month for its use of the facility from 8:00 A.M. - 4:30 P.M. Monday - Friday. The revenues from the anchor tenants will not cover the Center's expenses. Councilmember Zerby stated he had an issue with how the facility and property were being addressed when he was first seated on Council. From his vantage point it appeared the Center was being treated as if it was a shopping center and people were trying to find tenants to fill it. The City is not in the rental SHOREWOOD CITE' COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES February 23, 2009 Page 14 of 16 business. It's in the people business; it has to represent its residents and provide them with amenities they pay taxes for. The facility is located in a horrible location for a retail tenant. He stated the facility was specifically built to allow the cities to provide services to their seniors and residents. He was not surprised by the Friends actions based on the confrontational approach the Council had taken with the Friends. This situation was on a path of destruction in January 2009 when Council would not approve the lease amendment. He thought it was shameful the way Council treats the City's residents and seniors. In response to a question from Mayor Lizee, Administrator Heck stated he did not think the Southshore Center funding group had scheduled its next meeting. Heck explained during the group's last meeting it was decided that the City would set up a separate bank account for Center related activities and the City would serve as the fiscal agent for at least the interim. The group has to determine the monthly operating costs for the Center and discuss MCE's plans for the use of the Center, as well as consider fixture rental commitments the Friends made. Attorney Tietjen stated the lease agreement stipulates any subleasing on the part of the Friends requires prior written consent of the landlord. With respect to the recent rental agreement with SSSP, unless there was written consent from the cities the agreement would not be in compliance with the terms of the lease. Prior sublease agreements entered into that have been in effect for some time and with which there has been no objection have some credibility; they have already been performed and payment has been received. She suggested Council remain aware of this stipulation with the most recent agreement with SSSP and future rental agreements. Councilmember Woodruff stated he was not that concerned about the costs to operate the Center during March 2009. He wanted to know the City's liability for the long-term (one year) operating costs. He wants a business plan to be prepared in the next 30 dm's. I Ic doesn't want the City to entirely pay operating expenses long-term; he can accept it for one month if need be. He commented the City does not have any partners in keeping the Center open for March. Mayor Lizee suggested Administrator Fleck contact the other members of the Southshore Center funding group and schedule another meeting, and Nor. Anderson and some former members of the Friends should also be invited. Councilmember Turoeon suggested Mr. Anderson and former Friends members should not be invited to attend this meeting; this meeting would be for the cities' managers and administrators. In response to a question from Councilmember Woodruff, Attorney Tietjen stated if Council agrees with her assessment that the documents did not comply with the lease stipulation that subleasing requires the written consent of the landlord, then SSSP should be put on notice of that. Woodruff stated lie was not suggesting the cities should lock the door on SSSP as the terms of an agreement have been identified. Shorewood cannot act on this alone; the other cities must also take action. Tietjen agreed the other cities must be involved; she was only suggesting that SSSP be put on notice that the City does not think the rental agreement is binding. In response to a comment from Mayor Lizee, Tietjen stated she would work with Administrator Heck and the other cities' administrators on preparing a letter. Tietjen suggested she be involved in the discussions with the managers and administrators. There was ensuing discussion about insurance responsibilities for the structure and liability insurance. There was consensus to have Administrator Heck have a letter to SSSP saying the City did not think the rental agreement is valid, and to pursue drafting a one month rental agreement for the other member cities to review. SHOREWOOD CITY COUNCIL, REGULAR MEETING MINUTES February 23, 2069 Page 15 of 16 11. STAFF AND COUNCIL PORTS A. Administrator and Staff 1. City Hall Construction Update Administrator Heck provided an update on the City Hall renovation project. The project is moving along well. The interior is being painted. After discussion Xcel agreed the electrical box can be placed inside of the building. The project appears to be ten days ahead of schedule and under budget. 2. Southshore Center Update This was discussed as item 10.D. Other Staff Reports Director Brown stated there was a water main break at Chestnut Terra`cc the previous week, and the water tower at Old Market Road is in operation. Antennas will be installed on the tower shortly. B. Mayor and City Council In response to a question from Councilmember Woodruff, Administrator Heck stated he was working on finding a broker to sell the City-owned house. k Councilmember Woodruff stated at its March 11, 2009, meeting the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District is going to consider a request from Bayside Grille Catering for a law change that would allow Bayside Grille Catering to sell on sale alcoholic beverages on the ice; its valid on sale license for its facility is not valid for sale off of its property. He asked if Council wanted to provide him with input about this request. Councilmember Zerby stated he could support the request as long as there is a stipulation of a maximum distance from land. Councilmember Woodruff suggested Council consider giving Administrator Heck direction to prepare a list of projects that could possibly be funded with Federal stimulus money. Mayor Liz& cautioned that when lists are presented based on Council input that it should be very clear it's the Council's recommendation and not the Mayor's recommendation. Woodruff stated the list could possibly the Capital Improvement Program. Councilmember Zerby suggested one be a nice place for senior citizens. Councilmember Bailey stated the Investment Committee held its first meeting on February 18, 2009. The conclusion was the City's investments were solid. There was agreement to develop an enhanced asset report, research the various fees the City is paying for management of various investments, and to prepare a request for proposal for banking services. He noted the City is not disappointed with the services it receives from Beacon Bank. Administrator Heck stated there was a special South Lake Minnetonka Police Department (SLMPD) Coordinating Committee meeting held on February 18, 2009, to ratify the contract agreement reached with the SLMPD labor union. A three percent salary increase was approved for union personnel, and the employer's contribution to health insurance was increase to $885 (the increase was a little more than the negotiating committee wanted but much less than what the union wanted). A three percent salary increase was also approved for non-union personnel. SHOREWOOD CITY COUNCIL REGULAR MEETING MINUTES February 23, 2009 Page 16 of 16 12.

CONVENE CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION 5735 COUNTRY CLUB ROAD SOUTIISIIO E CENTER 5:30 P.M. Mayor Lizee called the meeting to order at 5:31 P.M. A. Roll Call Present. Mayor Lizee; Councihnembers Bailey, Turgeon (arrived 5:35 P.M.); Administrator Heck; Planning Director Nielsen; Director of Public Works Brown; and Engineer Landini Absent: None B. Review Agenda Woodruff moved, Bailey seconded, approving the agenda as presented. Motion passed 4/0. 2. 20 YEAR ROAD PLAN Director Brown stated the City has 46.54 miles of roadways, and of that 8.59 miles are part of the Minnesota State Aid (MSA) roadway system. He explained the<City uses the PASER system to evaluate and rate the City's roadways. The evaluator assigns a number from 1 to 10 for each roadway; a new or newly constructed roadway is rated 10 and a completely deteriorated roadway is rated 1. This evening's meeting packet contains a list of all of the City's roadways and their ratings for 2005, 2006 and 2008. The 20-year Pavement Management Plan ((AMP) reflects roadways with a 2008 rating of less than 5, which equates to approximately 8.5 miles of roadway, which are targeted for reconstruction over the next 20 years. Staff used an automated process to estimate the costs for this efforts and it's approximated to be $35.2 million. Brown explained reconstruction and maintenance of MSA roadways are theoretically funded through the MSA program. The City's MSA Fund has been encumbered because of the County Road 19 project. He stated Engineer Landini has estimated the Fund will have over $400,000 in it at 2009 year-end. Landini stated there will be approximately $363,000 available for roadway reconstruction and approximately $61,500 for roadway maintenance in the Fund at year end. Brown then explained that over the years Staff has drafted two, if not three, roadway assessment policies. To date, Council has chosen not to fund reconstruction with assessments. Council has preferred that the City's Local Roadway Fund (LRF), which funds local roadway maintenance and reconstruction, be funded through the general tax levy. The practice had been to transfer $400,000 - $500,000 from the General Fund in the past; the transfer amount was increased in 2008 and an increase is allocated for 2009. There is approximately $1.5 million in the LRF. The most recent cost estimate to reconstruct a roadway is approximately $1 million. The City's bonding consultant indicated the City's current debt limit is approximately $41 million. If Council were to choose bonding as a method for financing reconstruction, the bonding consultant has estimated that for every $1 million dollars bonded the City's debt service would be $91,000 a year over a 15-year period at 3.65 percent. Using a debt service amount of $91,000 and the cost of $1 million to reconstruct one mile of roadway, $400,000 could pay the debt service for approximately $4.3 million in roadway reconstruction per year. #Zc CITY OF SI OREWOOD WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES March 2, 2009 Page 2 of 6 Councilmember Woodruff commented if the City borrowed $4.3 million the City would be "tapped out" for fifteen years. Councilmember Bailey stated the approximate $35 million cost to reconstruct the roadways rated less than 5 over 20 years amounts to approximately $1.5 million per year. Basically one-half of $1.5 million is being funded with equity. He then stated he thought the amount was manageable, noting the cost for reconstructing Vine Hill Road would be quite substantial. From his vantage point, he thought the City has a sustainable number without having to bond for road reconstruction. Director Brown commented the City of Minnetonka does not have the resources to reconstruct Vine Hill Road; therefore, Minnetonka is seeking an estimate to mill and overlay it. In response to a comment from Councilmember Woodruff, Engineer Landini stated a newly constructed or reconstructed roadway should be seal coated the first time within one to two years after construction, and then the roadway would fall into the once-every-five-year cycle for seal coating. Councilmember Woodruff stated he recently viewed a League of Minnesota Cities' webinar about how the Federal stimulus program will affect Minnesota cities. He thought there were two items discussed that are pertinent to the City. For tax-exempt bank qualified bonds, the exception for small issuers is raised to $30 million from $10 million for 2009 and 2010. There is $502 million for Minnesota in pass- through grants for highways and bridges. Of that $345 million is allocated toMnDOT and $155 million will be sub-allocated to local units of government. All of these funds must be spent on the federal aid system. The local portion of funds will be distributed by the MnDOT State Aid for Local Transportation Division (SALT) and selected by the Metropolitan Council. He questioned if there is any possibility the City could be recipient of any of the local funds. Director Brown stated he and Administrator Heck attended a Metropolitan Area Managers meeting during which the Commissioner of Transportation was asked if it would be likely that cities would receive any of these funds, and the Commissioner said no. He explained the Federal Aid program is administered similar to the MSA program, but the Federal program's requirements are more stringent. He commented the City deals with SALT to manage its MSA funds. He stated he was uncertain if SALT would only serve as a conduit for the flu%v, of funds, or if it would apply its requirements to funding requests. In response toa question from Councilmember Woodruff, Brown explained the list of highway and bridge projects is actually an old list that had been prepared. Therefore, the City does not have any projects on the list. Brown stated he was unsure if any local community safety improvement projects will be considered for stimulus funding. If they are the City will try for funds. Councilmember Woodruff stated Minnesota will receive $60 million for sanitary sewer and storm water projects. One half of funds will be used for grants and will be administered under the existing Public Facilities Program. It is his understanding there is already a list of projects for these finds, and he questioned if the City had any projects on the list. Director Brown stated the City was locked out of those funds. There was ensuing discussion about the roadway ratings; the up and down rating fluctuations for the three years identified due to deterioration and maintenance improvements ; and whether or not there will be additional roadways that will be rated less than five during the 20-year PMP cycle. The bottom line is as the City moves through the 20-year plan, additional roads will likely deteriorate to the point where they will be rated less than five; roadway ratings will likely drop as roadways deteriorate over time. Staff thought the estimate to complete the 20-year PMP could likely be closer to $40 million dollars once additional roadways are factored in. To date, Staff has not had the time to try an incorporate the ever changing level of deterioration into the 20 year PMP, noting the deterioration rate should be considered over a 4 - 6 year period. CITY OF SHOREW O WORD SESSION MEETING MINUTES March 2, 2009 Page 3 of 6 Mayor Lizde stated some nearby communities do have roadway assessment policies. She suggested Staff research their programs and determine why they are or are not successful. She then stated as part of living in a civil society one should be able to assume there will be paved roads that will be maintained. It's up to Council to determine how to fund roadway reconstruction and reclamation. In response to a comment from Councilmember Bailey about Harding Lane, Director Brown explained Staff has a number of hydrologic concerns about the ground under Harding Lane. Some years the area is dry and other years there is a substantial amount of water. It's difficult to predict rapid deterioration because of unknown water factors. In response to a comment from Councilmember Turgeon, Director Brown stated it was more important to consider the rate of deterioration with respect to financing than in determining the exact order of reconstruction priority. Councilmember Woodruff questioned if the reclamation approach should be considered for low-traffic roads (e.g., Shady Island Road) and cud-de-sac roads (e.g., Echo Road). Director Brown stated it may be beneficial for Council to consider reconstruction of some roads and reclamation of others; he thought reclamation would be sufficient for certain roadways. Brown commented there is approximately $204,000 budgeted or seal coating of roadways and another approximately $163,000 budgeted for overlays in 2009; these costs are in addition to reclamation or reconstruction costs. Director Brown explained Strawberry Lane was reclaimed in 1995. Along with the reclamation some edge drain improvements were made at that time. Strawberry Lane has recently begun to show signs of distress. He stated he and Engineer Landini think a reclaimed road has an approximate 15-year service life, and the service life of a reconstructed is 30 - 35 years. Engineer Landini explained he determined the approximated per-square-yard costs to reclaim Strawberry Lane and factored 5 percent per year inflation and used this amount to calculate the cost to reclaim rather than reconstruct roadways. If Amlee Road, Manitou Lane and Glen Road had been reclaimed in 2008 the cost would have been approximately $480,000 and the approximate cost to reclaim Harding Lane and Smithtown Lane in 2009 is $300,000. Ile noted reclamation would not solve any foundation issues. In response to a question from Councilmember Bailey, Director Brown explained the cost to reclaim Harding Lane is about 35 percent of the cost to reconstruct. Councilmember Bailey stated based on what Staff has presented, reclamation costs are approximately one-third the cost of reconstruction, and last almost half as long. He questioned why he would ever reconstruct a roadway. Director Brown explained reclamation does not solve drainage or safety concerns, and edge control would not be installed. Mayor Lizde questioned if utility infrastructure improvements could be done as part of a reclamation effort. Director Brown explained that could occur if an expanded reclamation approach was used. With a pure reclamation effort the contractor mills the asphalt and immediately puts it back down. With the Strawberry Lane reclamation approach the contractor milled the asphalt, took it to a holding location where it was stockpiled, did the drain tile work, and then brought the milled asphalt back and applied it. There was additional cost to do this. This expanded reclamation process was more cumbersome because the contractor had to find an area to stockpile the milled asphalt and it may not be possible to keep residents' access to their properties open. This process would allow for utility improvements to be considered. In response to a question from Councilmember Turgeon, Director Brown explained if the pure reclamation approach was used for the Amlee Road / Manitou Lane / Glen Road project the contractor CITY OF SHOREW D WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES March 2, 2009 Page of 6 would have milled the asphalt and re-applied it at the same time, and cars could have been driven on the roads the same day. The contractor would then have installed drain the along the edges. This drain the was for the roadway only; it would not solve any drainage issues. The contractor would pack the roadway and let it sit for 2 - 3 weeks before overlaying it. Mayor Lizee suggested Staff identify roadways that could be reasonable candidates for reclamation. She noted the City is a very wet city with many drainage issues, and there are relatively new Federal and State mandates that must be implemented for managing storm water. She did not think it would be prudent to reconstruct or reclaim a road without attempting to resolve drainage concerns; they would just shorten the service life of the roadway surface. Director Brown commented that Engineer Landini spends a significant amount of time staying abreast of watershed district regulations. He stated if a roadway was fully reconstructed the City may consider installing edge control, and it would likely install some form of Natural Urban Runoff Program pond. It's likely this would not happen with a reclamation effort. Engineer Landini stated if the roadway was reconstructed within the same footprint the City would probably not have to get a permit from the watershed district. Councilmember Woodruff suggested Staff identify criteria to use in determining if a roadway would be better suited for reclamation or reconstruction. He stated he did not think the City had many serious drainage concerns. Engineer Landini stated there have been 64 drainage concerns identified in the City, and the PUP does not consider drainage concerns. Director Brown stated reclamation works best for roadways without edge control, noting Harding Lane has edge control. Mayor Lizee stated it would not make sense to her for the City to reconstruct or reclaim a roadway without considering the utilities, extending water main, fixing drainage concerns and burying power lines. These things should be should be considered on a roadway by roadway basis. Director Brown noted water main can be installed as part of an expanded reclamation effort, and the City cannot consider burying any more power lines Director Brown stated Staff will identify a set of criteria (including drainage issues, water main installation, traffic, etc.) for evaluating roadways for either reconstruction or reclamation and prepare a decision tree for each of the roadways identified in the 20-year PMP. Councilmember Bailey stated based on discussions it appears Smithtown Lane may be a candidate for reclamation while Harding Lane may be a good candidate for reconstruction. Director Brown stated Bailey's assessment was very good. Mayor Lizee stated previous Councils have discussed the possibility of adopting a roadway assessment policy, but to no avail. She requested Staff research roadway assessment policies nearby communities have and report back to Council on the findings. Councilmember Turgeon stated Councils have discussed the difficulty in being able to prove the value- added to a property because of a reconstructed or reclaimed road. She suggested Council decide if it wants to assess property owners for roadway improvements. Councilmember Woodruff stated he had difficulty with the concept of assigning arbitrary boundaries for determining what property owners would pay for roadway improvements. He wanted to see examples of assessment policies that worked. He then stated there are two and one-half funding alternatives for roadway improvements - assessments, bonding and street improvement districts (one-half of an alternative). Councilmember Zerby commented with the bonding alternative all property owners pay. CITY OF SHOREWOOD WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES March 2, 2009 Page 5 of 6 Administrator Heck clarified there are four funding alternatives - the general tax levy, bonding, special property assessments on properties abutting the roadway for some portion of the cost, and possibly street improvement districts. Council could use a combination of alternatives, noting if the City creates a street improvement district approach it could not assess the abutting properties. The City could levy for a portion of the cost, bond for a portion of the cost and pay for the debt service on the bond out of a street improvement district where property owners pay the same amount. The issue for Council to decide what funding method(s) it wants to use. Councilmember Woodruff stated in almost every case he thought the City would have to issue some bonds to pay the contractor who performed the work. The residents pay for the debt service through a special assessment a separate line item will appear on their property tax statement. If improvements are paid through the general tax levy, the residents will not see a separate line item. With street improvement districts the residents would see on special line item on their utility bills. Administrator Heck clarified for special assessments a special assessment district is not created. Properties abutting the roadway are assessed for the improvements. If a City-wide street improvement district is created, all property owners will pay the same amount over some period of time. The first few years of street improvements could be funded through bonding and after a while the payments on the utility bills would have accrued to the point where the City may no longer have to bond for improvements. Director Brown explained some communities had implemented assessment policies based on a specific roadway width; assessments were not based on the width of a road. Some cities have assessed by frontage to the roadway and others per property. He stated Council has to decide if it wants to assess property owners in this economic climate. Mayor Lizee again requested Staff research other communities' assessment policies to determine what did and did not work. She asked each Councilmember what their thoughts on special assessments were. Councilmember Turgeon stated she would not consider assessing for roadway improvements. Councilmember Woodruff, stated he was not pomfortable with the assessment process, but he would like Staff to research other comnnmitics' assessment policies. He has a philosophical issue with abutting property owners funding improvements on roadways that many residents drive on. Water assessments are specific to benefiting property owners; roadway improvements are not. Councilmember Bailey stated he would like to have more information about special assessment policies, and he did not have a strong problem with special assessments. Councilmember Zerby stated he would like more information on what bordering communities are doing. He generally would prefer that roadway improvements be funded out of the General Fund, but there may be times when property owners requested specific improvements to a roadway. If the City mandates when a roadway will be reconstructed or reclaimed then the property owners at large should pay for that improvement. Director Brown stated Staff can prepare financial examples of how different finding alternatives would work for two City roads. Councilmember Bailey stated he can't imagine the City using special assessments for all of a roadway's improvement. Councilmember Woodruff stated assessments must be based on a price per foot. Director Nielsen stated the first assessment policy the City considered was based on the City paying one- third of the cost, and residents on each of the two sides of the road paying one-third. The City would also CITY OF SHOREWOOD WORD SESSION MEETING MINUTES March 2, 2009 Page 6 of 6 pay for any frontage against wetlands. Collector streets were also addressed in the policy. The policy was comprehensive. Director Brown again stated Staff will identify a set of criteria (including drainage issues, water main installation, traffic, etc.) for evaluating roadways for reconstruction or reclamation and prepare a decision tree for each of the roadways identified in the 20-year PMP for the next work session. Staff will also provide examples for different funding alternatives for two roadways. In response to a comment from Councihnember Bailey, Director Brown stated Staff is continuing with the next steps in the process for the improvements to Harding Lane and Smithtown Lane per Council's direction. In response to a comment from Councihnember Zerby, Administrator Heck asked how much credence Council wants to give to property owners' reluctance for improvements. Councilmember Turgeon stated if a roadway is to be reclaimed within its existing footprint she did not think the public should have much input. Mayor Liz6e stated property owners want to be provided with a 20-year roadway improvement plan. She suggested the 20-year PMP be reviewed as part of the Comprehensive Plan Planning Districts review sessions with residents. She stated Council has to decide if and wheii a roadway should be improved, but whether it is reclaimed or reconstructed can be affected by rights-of-way issues and drainage concerns. Councilmember Turgeon stated if improvements are going to be paid for out of the General Fund, then the only question property owners have to answer is if they want water main installed. Mayor Liz6e recapped what Staff is expected to prepare for the work session on March 16`x'. They will assemble various assessment policies for neighboring communities, they will prepare decision trees for each roadway identified in the 20-year PMP v~hich determines what method of improvements will be made, and they will prepare two examples of the impact of the four funding alternatives. Councilmember Turgeon suggested assessment policies for cities similar to Shorewood only be considered. 3. OTHER There was no other business for discussion this evening. 4.

The specific employees in the entity who have the authority and responsibility for carrying out these duties are: 1) the Responsible Authority (RA); 2) the Designee (one or more); and 3) the Data Practices Compliance Official (DPCO) The RA is the person who ultimately is responsible for the collection, use, and dissemination of all entity data, and for all of the entity's data practices decisions. The RA must also make sure the entity complies with all of the requirements of the Act and the Rules. In a City, the governing body must appoint a city employee as the RA. In the past, the City Administrator/ Clerk has been appointed as the RA. The RA then designates the Designee(s) and the DPCO.

BATE: March 5, 2009 RE: Storm Water Pollution Prevention Program Plan (S WPPP) Amendment As part of the Federal Clean Water Act, the City of Shorewood is required to obtain a National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit. This permit was originally obtained in March, 2003. Recently the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency requested an amendment to our SWPPP to document the review of discharges to impaired waters. Attached is the template the MPCA submitted with staff edits. Please review and provide comments before the meeting so staff can bring a final amendment and resolution to the March 9, 2009, City Council meeting for adoption. COUNCIL ACTION Staff recommends Council adopt the amendment to the Storm Water Pollution Prevention Plan by approving the attached resolution. 41% PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER _i rid MS4 Nan- e: Permit Condition: Unique BMP Identification Number: , ry Sheet City of Shorewood IV.D Section 303(d) listings IV.D - 1 BMP 'Pine: Impaired Waters Review Process BMP Description: Shorewood will review annually all discharges from our MS4 system to impaired waters, as defined by the current USEPA approved 303(d) list. In this review, Shorewood will: • Identify the impaired waters that are likely to be impacted by the MS4's stonnwater discharge. ■ Use a combination of storm sewer maps and field surveys to identify all potential stonnwater discharges to impaired waters • Delineate the watershed area(s) that contribute to the above discharge(s) • Evaluate the hydrology, land use and other characteristics of the watershed area(s) that may impact the impaired water as a result of a stormwater discharge from our MS4 Based on the review above, we will determine if any changes to the existing stonnwater system or BMPs are needed to minimize the impact of discharges from our MS4to the impaired water(s). If such modifications are deemed necessary, Shorewood will modify our SWPPP and submit those modifications to the MPCA with the current year's annual report. In our review, we will consider timing and long and short term costs. All assumptions, reasoning, and justification used to reach a conclusion on whether or not SWPPP revisions are necessary will be documented in the decision making process and records of this determination kept along with all records associated with the MS4 permit. A narrative summary of this review will then be prepared, and identify any associated SWPPP revisions that were made. Measurable Goals: • Establish a baseline of information- determine what processes are in place and what has already been accomplished that will help meet these permit conditions • Prepare a written inventory of all impaired waters within the jurisdictional boundaries of the MS4, as well as those outside these boundaries likely to have an impact as a result of receiving stormwater discharge from the MS4; compile as much detail about the stormwater discharges they receive from the MS4 as is available • Prepare a map that includes all impaired waters that the MS4 discharge may impact, all MS4 discharge points that may impact these water(s), and delineated watershed(s) that may contribute to the impairment • Complete for records a written overview of the conclusions reached through this review, including the decision making process used to determine what SWPPP revisions may be needed ■ Prepare a projected schedule and timeline to incorporate any necessary changes into the SWPPP wq-strm4-60 Updated 7/02/07 Timeline/Ir ientation Schedule: June 30, ann- - Ily: Identify what steps, if any, have already been taken by Shorewood to meet the requirements of' section IV.D. of the MS4 General Permit. June 30, annually: Identify impaired waters receiving likely impacts from stormwater discharges from MS4 and locate discharges .June 30, annually: Delineate watersheds contributing runoff to impaired waters .Tune 30, annually: Develop a Map of discharges June 30, annually: Complete an Evaluation of hydrology, land use, etc. June 30, annually: Include in Annual Report to MPCA the overview of the impaired waters review and any changes to the SWPPP that have been deemed necessary through this review process. Specific Components and Notes: This process is to be reassessed annually over the course of the permit cycle. As new 303(d) lists with additional impaired waters listed are published in the future, Shorewood will review changes to the list and conduct the necessary review of additional listed waters likely to be impacted by the MS4's stormwater discharges. When an USEPA approved TMDL is finalized, Shorewood intends to fully comply, to the maximum extent practical, with all limits and requirements set forth in the TMDL in accordance with the schedule(s) outlined in the TMDL and the MS4 Permit.

The amount of the bid to perform the work was $378,000. The East Water Tower Rehabilitation Project has been completed. Despite staff's efforts to "beat the cold weather" and cooler temperatures in the fall, by specifying a "cold weather coating system," the interior of the tank initially failed to cure. Temperatures in the fall of the year had dropped lower than what had been experienced over the past few years. Therefore, the epoxy coating system was not curing properly. Failure to have the tower on line was causing severe operational issues with the water treatment process. Therefore, staff directed the contractor to set up temporary heat in the "bowl" of the tower. Propane tanks were delivered to the site, and very large torpedo heaters were installed interior to the tank. While the general contractor met the schedule that they had originally planned for the rehabilitation of the tower, they realized the consequences of having this tower off line due to the curing issues. As a good will effort, the contractor offered to split the rental price of the heaters, and stated that they would not add any profit or mark up to the propane fuel used. Staff directed the contractor to proceed, on this basis. The contractor performed that work at an added cost to the City of $4,951.13. This represents a 1.3 percent increase to the contract. If approved, funds for this will be taken from the bond proceeds that were issued for the project. Since the project has been completed, staff is also recommending that the project be accepted by the City, pending receipt of the tax withholding forms and final documentation. Recommendation Staff is recommending approval of the resolution that approves Change Order 1 to the Southeast Water Tower, in the amount of $4,951.13 and that the final improvement be accepted by the City. 4 N PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER CITY F SHOREWOOD RESOLUTION NO. 09- A RESOLUTION APPROVING CHANGE ORDER I FORT E S.E.

We have received the aerial survey information from Three Rivers Park District (see Exhibit A) and the report from Metro Bowhunters Resource Base (see Exhibit B). The aerial survey was done in early February. The number of deer counted on that particular day was 64, distributed as shown on the map. The 2008 survey had shown 74 deer and the first survey that was flown (2007) had shown 121 deer. It must be remembered that these surveys are "snapshots" taken on a single day. MBRB reported after the 2007 program that they had taken 26 deer over four weekends. For 2008 they removed another 23 deer, again over four weekends. Once again, the program went off without incident. We did, however, have more correspondence this year from people in opposition to the program. It should be noted that staff took any number of calls from people, for and against the program. In all cases we advised people to submit their connrrents in writing. Our policy is to not convey voice messages or conversations. The written comments are attached to this report for your review. Page three of the MBRB report contains several suggestions relative to a 2009 management program. Staff is looking for direction from the Council at this time. To the extent that it makes a difference, we spend approximately $1200 per year on this effort, of which about $700 is spent on the aerial survey. The rest covers printing and postage. Most of the staff time associated with the program has been done outside of normal working hours. PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER . , Memorandum Re: Deer Management Program 2005 Summary 5 March 2009 MBRB, in particular its president - BobWhiting, should be commended for conducting another successful deer removal effort and for their extreme professionalism. These folks are a tribute to their sport! The Public Works Department and the South Lake Mirn7etonka Police Department should also be thanked for their cooperation and assistance in the program. If you have any questions relative to this matter, please do not hesitate to contact me prior to Monday night's meeting.

The objectives of the deer removal effort were to remove as marry deer as possible within the geographic boundaries of the hunt area and within the timelines and rules prescribed by the hunt. A further objective was to determine if archery could be a safe, efficient and economical alternative method of deer control. DESCRIPTION OF AREA (See attached map) METHODS Selections of Archers - All archers were selected from the MBRB. A random drawing was conducted from the MBRB Sharpshooter qualified members indicating an interest in participating. A total of 24 archers were selected to participate. Procedures - An on-site orientation was conducted to familiarize the archers with the rules and regulations, property boundaries, contact information with the Shorewood Police Dept, emergency procedures and other requirements. Archers were provided with Shorewood City parking passes, hunt permits, and naps. Hunt rules and safety procedures were discussed in detail. (See attached hunt rules) RESULTS Exhibit B A total of 23 deer were removed during the effort (Refer to table 1). There were a total of 24 different archers that participated in two teams of 12 each in eight days of hunting activity. Hunting was conducted in the mornings and evenings during hunt days and stands were put up on Fridays (no hunting on Fridays). A total of approximately 40 hours of actual team hunting effort were spent conducting the activity. The rules of the deer removal effort were set up to be very conservative (shot distance, number of days available for hunting, limited area available for hunting). TABLE 1.

Except for a few instances of coordinating/notification of deer searches, there were no issues requiring contact with the Shorewood Police. MBRB received positive feedback from residents that we encountered. Coordination of weekly hunt results was completed each week with representatives of the City. There were no accidents during the hunt. There were three deer that were hit and not recovered. MBRB determined that two of these were superficial hits. All of arrows were recovered during searches for the deer. One doe could not be located in a large cattail marsh. MBRB could not locate it even after extensive searching. Rain complicated the searching which was curtailed due to inclement weather resulting in loss of sign. One of the hunt coordinators went back and looked throughout the area several times over the next week but the deer could not be located. Approximately three weeks latter MBRB was called by a lady who said there was a dead deer in her back yard. She indicated that she had called the City several times. When notified, MBRB immediately inspected the deer and removed it. The cause of the deer's demise could not be determined, as the carcass had been eaten by coyotes; but since the location was adjacent to the cattail marsh where the doe was lost, an assn tnption was made that it could be the salve deer. Two deer were not recovered during night searches. These were found the following morning; however both of these had been eaten by coyotes. Either sex hunting worked well. A total of 3 adult bucks were taken along with 20 antlerless deer. MBRB observed generally fewer deer in 2008 however there appeared to still be concentrations of deer in certain areas. Several of the deer removed during the hunt were donated to the food self. It appears from the recent deer- surveys conducted by the City, that the deer removal activities by MBRB are having the desired result of lowering the deer population levels. ?°-2 Based on the experience ofMBRB it usually takes about 3 to 4 years to achieve deer population goals with archery. However if the City of Shorewood determines that the deer population has already reached a level of social acceptability, then MBRB recommends two alternatives for the City to consider. The first is to consider changing to a maintenance level of hunting activity which would involve less hunting effort in order to maintain the current deer levels. An example of this used by MBRB in other areas and initially involves reducing hunting effort by one half. The effort can then be adjusted each year to meet desired goals. The second alternative is to curtail deer removal activities and wait until the deer population level increases again to levels of social unacceptability. In an urban environment without natural predators, it is likely that the deer population levels would recover to pre-removal levels within 1-2 years. The rapid population increase is the result of both local deer reproduction and migration of deer from surrounding overpopulated areas. Depending on landowner preference, MBRB has used both of these deer maintenance alternatives to good effect. As always, MBRB reconnmends that the City consult with the Minnesota DNR if there are questions about management of urban deer populations. RECOMMENDATIONS The following recommendations are designed to increase effectiveness if deer removal activities are conducted again using MBRB. 1. Start the fall hunt in late September- early October time frame when there is still leaves on trees to provide cover. . 2. Conduct 2-4 hunts with about 3 weeks separating each effort. 3. Either sex deer hunting worked well in 2008 and should be continued. 4. At least 30 days notice would be necessary for MBRB to provide hunters and conduct an orientation meeting if a fall 2009 hunt is desired. 5. Consider expanding hunt to other available areas in the City. MBRB saw many deer outside of our hunt boundaries. MBRB believes that there are still concentrations of deer in certain areas. Some landowners asked us to come to their property to remove deer. We declined and told them to contact the City. 6. Better advance information to nearby property owners should be considered.

Below these are outlined. * I still haven't found what the goals and objectives are for this program or a "detailed report". How do you know when enough is enough? I feel this should be spelled out and made public record. That might help me understand why we need this program again this year. From what I read in the July 28th, Council Work Session a packet was to be distributed at the August 1 Ith council meeting was this done. I didn't see that in the minutes. * From last year, you said in the Shoreport dated October 11,2007 that the MBRB set its expectations at just 10 deer. As you know, 26 were taken. You also said that one anterless deer had to be taken before shooting a buck. In your notes from the July 28,2008, meeting you said that last year anterless deer were not allowed to be taken. Something here just doesn't add up. This year any sex can be taken. A good set of goals and objectives are needed!! "You also said at the July 28, 2008 meeting that there were "no accidents or incidents". But in the September Shoreport you mentioned "generally positive feedback" was received. To me, using the word "generally", would indicate there were some incidents. *As I said before, I received the deer population data from the Three Rivers Park District and the deer count this year was 74 compared to 112 last year. Because I don't kazow for sure what the sex of the 26 taken last year (based on my previous statement above), my guess is we will have a population well below 40 after this year. That is not acceptable to me!! "Because of all the flaws and misrepresentation I see in this program, I would like you to take the necessary action to reduce the number of hunting days this year from 8 to 4. Since you are the person from City Hall responsible for this program, you should be able to do that. Thanks again for reading my concerns and I look forward again to your feedback.

I read your e-mail the Sunday you sent it, but failed to follow up on Monday morning. All correspondence (for or against) Shorewood's Deer Management Program is forwarded to the City Council. The Council uses this input to determine whether or not to continue the program from year to year. With respect to your request, I reported late last year that the first year's program resulted in the removal of 26 deer. In July of this year, I reported to the Council the recommendations from Bob Whiting, President of Metro Bowhunters Resource Board (MBRB) relative to the 08' program, if there was to be one. I have enclosed an excerpt of the minutes from the 28 July 08 Council Work Session for your review. As you are already aware, the Council agreed to continue the program for this year.

Nielson Planning Director City of Shorewood 3/5/2009 Page 3 of 3 Hello Mr. Nielson Having recently received the September 2008, issue of "The Shoreport", I am upset again to see on the front page the article on deer management. Having been opposed to this last year, and I voiced that concern to the Mayor at one of her Saturday coffee get together's,=2 01 was thoroughly disappointed and disgusted to see this scheduled for another year. Here are my thoughts and concerns: * I live in Shorewood for the outdoors, the woods, wildlife and rural environment it provides, yet close enough to the "city" for those benefits too. People who move here need to understand that Shorewood is not the "city" and a deer may eat your hostas, a woodchuck may get under your deck, a racoon may tear up your yard. There are ways of controlling those things without killing the wildlife. I have lived in Shorewood for close to 20 years and the amount of wildlife I've seen is more than I can count on both hands. That's the way it is when you live in a wooded rural area. Leave the animals alone!! * I talked to the Three Rivers Park District on the aerial counts they have done. In 2007, they counted 112 deer in Shorewood. In 2008, they counted 74 deer. I read where last year 26 deer were removed by the archers. So, if the same thing happens this year, next years count would be close to 50. Is that what we want? Not this resident!! * I have never found anything written or published as to what the goals are for this activity. A city this size, I believe about seven square miles, a deer population of 74 is not excessive. Is all we want to do is just get rid of all the deer? Are we just catering to people who don't like wildlife and are complaining? The statement in the Shoreport about "generally" positive feedback to me means that I must not be the only one not pleased with this activity. And what facts did the city council use to "determine that the program should be continued"? * I would like to see the detailed report that you were to provide to the City Council as stated in the December 10, 2007 meeting minutes. I couldn't find it in the meeting minutes I went through. Would appreciate if you could forward it to me or advise as to where it is on the web site. * Finally, if this deer management activity must take place, I would like the number of days reduced from 8 to 4. This way maybe we can keep some deer in Shorewood. Thanks for listening to my concerns and I look forward to your feedback. OA Regards, Tom. Psssst...Have you heard the news?

However, If I were to kill EVERY creature that causes some damage to my home and my gardens there would be nothing left. For instance: 1. Let's kill ALL the woodpeckers because they SOMETIMES peck on my house, and my neighbors. 2. Let's kill ALL the birds in general because the leave bird poop on my steps and deck, I can't enjoy my deck if there is poop on it I would I have to take soap and water to wash it off, and my valuable time.$$ 3. Let's kill ALL the squirrels because they can get into my bird feeders and eat my expensive bird seed. That won't matter. We won't have any birds because we've killed them all. Worse yet they COULD get into the house and start living in my attic and cause an economic hardship. 4. Let's kill ALL the rabbits because they are just as destructive , sometimes more than our deer. If we kill all of them the birds of prey and, coyotes will die off since they are a food source for them. So that will be a 3fer. Laura, I know that you may be the go between for these kinks of issues. And I'm sure you get my point!!! Living in harmony w/ nature and the beauty God has placed before us is a MUCH better alternative. I moved to this area because I enjoy having the deer and their friends frequent my yard. It is an amazing sight to be walking on the trail in the evening and have God's creatures grace my presence. THESE ARE GIFTS!! THESE SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN FOR GRANTED! SO IF THE DEER ARE CAUSING FINANCIAL RUIN FOR SOME RESIDENTS, well as Jacque says, let them move to downtown and enjoy the cityscapes. Fair warning, they may still see a deer. Killing "things" because they don't do as we say do is not the best approach. It is sad for the human race. DON'T like it, KILL it.

My address is 22530 Murray Street, which is in a relatively secluded portion of the city where we have occasional deer. My home is located on more than an acre as are most of my neighbors. Why not have a public vote on the issue? If 90% of the citizens were against the idea, and 100/o volunteered their property for the deer killings, the 100/o would surly be enough to kill all of the deer in the city. Therefore, the selfish minority would prevail. Shorewood is a relatively affluent community, therefore I have a hard time believing that the deer who are eatting the rich people's hosta are causing an economic hardship to the community... If these people don't like living among deer and nature, perhaps they should move to a condo in downtown Minneapolis where they would feel more comfortable. Once again, this is a situation revolving around the all-mightly dollar and mankind's utter selfishness and disregard for the world we live in. How sad for us all.

Depending on where you live, which is not identified in your email, you will get differing opinions regarding this issue. The Council heard comments from many people within our community expressing their desire that something be done to reduce the ever increasing number of deer in the area and the damage they were causing. To address some of your comments Liability: The contract with Metro Bow Hunters is very detailed in the scope of insurance and liability requirements. Sharp Shooter: Only those within the organization who meet the sharp shooter qualifications can participate. If memory serves me correctly they must hit a 1 inch mark from 20 feet. Their services are free to the City. More information is available on their website. As previously mentioned, Shorewood began this program last year. There were enough people interested that we had to create a waiting list as we could not accommodate the number of requests. We have more than enough requests at this time to accommodate the 4 weekends currently scheduled. I understand the sensitivity of the matter, and appreciate your expressing your thoughts with me.

How disappointing that would be. As a member of a family of proud hunters, wildlife career managers, biologists, mayor, and frustrated gardeners and property owners, I have seen many sides of the issues. As a family, we also have had to contend with lyme disease, a vehicle being totaled by hitting a deer and losing a loved one in a hunt. We are not confused. At what point do you recognize all life must not be subordinated to a ridiculous, narrow vision of Utopia? Lovely flower beds and well shaped trees and shrubs are not the sign of a well lived life. Life is for sharing, not for greedy taking. If the city emphasizes how it looks and how much it CONTROLS, over how it treasures its inhabitants, ALL inhabitants, we are lost. You have missed the point of why life is beautiful in Shorewood. Please do not trouble to send me a form reply. It only reinforces the mindlessness of your position. I dare you to enlarge your vision of the good life by reducing your need to control it, kill it, eliminate it. Psssst...Have you heard the news?

The original design calls for a "Shadowbox" style sign mounted on the stone arch near the entrance. When the Council discussed the letter style, they also discussed the need for this sign and the possibility of having a monument type sign instead. CURRENT STATUS The project is a few weeks from completion and the contractor and architect will be off the job so the Council needs to decide if it wants the original concept sign installed. The concept for the original sign is attached. Should the Council choose to move forward with the original plan, we recommend the same letter style used on the water towers and letter head. The architect estimated the potential credit for not installing the sign is around $1,500. He also estimated the cost for a monument sign that conforms to the look of City Hall to be around $5,000. OPTIONS 1. Have the sign installed as planned in original concept 2. Reject the sign and plan monument type sign as part of landscaping 3. Install the sign as planned and have a monument type sign installed with the landscaping plan PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER i r I s ~m__._~ i Y i~ 3 _ # ..1 E } ~ Pi(( 2 ~u CYO.
