4. MATTERS FROM THE FLOOR
George Greenfield, 24715 Yellowstone Trail stated during the November'% 2009, Council meeting he
asked a question that he had been asking City staff for four months. He indicated he has still not received
an answer to his question. He stated he is not an attorney, he does not have access to a law library and he
does not use the internet. Ye he was able to findoiit the answer to his question in one day. From his
vantage point he thought it should 156"Iroubling to the citizens of Shorewood that the City Administrator
and City Attorney don't Have command of the information. The information he was trying to get was
about State Statutes 177 41 :,;1.77.44 which have to do W th the prevailing wage law. What he found out
was that cities in Minnesota are'liable`to fo7lo:W,the prevailing wage law. The only exceptions are if the
cost of protect less then $2,500 where only one kind of trade is involved, or the cost of the project is
less then $`2,-5;000 wheie�tlaere is more then one type of trade involved. Both the Eddy Station project and
the City all landscaping p�ject met the, criteria for the prevailing wage law. He still does not know if
the Crtygtl the prevailing vage or rf Ctt staff knew the law was applicable to the City. He expressed
his strong displeasure with not receiving a "response from the City for such an extended period of time. He
stated when there is no representation with taxation and when there is such a regal attitude to go with it
that spells trouble..,
Mayor Lizee thanked Mr, Greenfield for his comments.
Mr. Greenfield departedAhe meeting.
Administrator Heck stated lie had spoken with Attorney Tietjen about this, but he did not respond to Mr.
Greenfield in a timely manner. Heck explained if a city does a project that is funded by state dollars that
city has to follow the prevailing wage law. If a project is not funded by state dollars it does not have to
follow that law. What confuses the issue is cities may receive local government aide (LGA) and the LGA
is not designated to a specific project. The League of Minnesota Cities has advised and provided the
opinion that when a municipality is doing a project which is funded with general fund dollars it should
follow the state statute if it's receiving LGA. The City doesn't receive any LGA, but is has received

minimal homestead market credit. The Eddy Station project was funded out of the Park Fund and this
fund is funded out of transfers from the General Fund, The City cannot determine if any of the funds in
the General were from state aid. Because the City does not receive any LGA or other state aid those
projects were not subject to the prevailing wage law. For roadway projects where the City does receive
state aid it does follow the law.
Mayor Lizee suggested the City nail Mr. Greenfield a written response on the City's findings regarding
the prevailing wage law.
A. Minnetonka Community Education (MCE) Representative Tad Shaw Report on
MCE Activities
Mayor Lizee stated Tad Shaw, the City's representative on the>M Community Education (MCE)
Advisory Council, was present this evening to give a repotI on MCE" activities.
Mr. Shaw stated he had been the City's representative on the MCE Advisory Council for over 20 years,
noting Ile started in 1980. MCE grew from giving violin lessons and h nning sports programs to the all
encompassing program it is today. MCE provides early childhood family education programs, youth

for new ideas. He commented that from his vantage point MCE has always been a leader in providing
community education services.
Mayor Lizee thanked Mr. Shaw for his services.
B. Andrew Gillett, Hennepin County, Report on Trail Extension from the LRT Trail
Crossing at County Road 19 to the Old Dakota Rail Line in Orono
CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL, MEETING MINUTES
November 23, 2009
Page 4 of 23
Mayor Lizee stated Andrew Gillett, with Hennepin County, was present to give a presentation on the trail
extension from the LRT Trail crossing at County Road 19 to the Old Dakota Rail Line in the City of
Orono. She explained she invited Mr. Gillett to present this to the full Council so Council can
demonstrate its support for such a vision.
Mr. Gillett explained he made this presentation at a joint meeting of the Orono, Shorewood and Tonka
Bay City Councils about a month ago.
The highlights of Mr. Gillett's presentation are as follows. (A copy of the presentation is on file.)
In 2005 the City of Tonka Bay had commissioned a consulting firm to do a feasibility
study within Tonka Bay for a trail along County Road: T9 that would extend from Glen
Road to Echo Bay via Tonka Bay Road and West' Point Road. Tonka Bay did not
implement the feasibility study.
In January 2008 Hennepin County created a program called Hennepin County
Community Works Border Grant Program. in January 2008 Hennepin County received a
joint grant application from the Cities of Orono, Shorewood and TonkaBay to .embark on
a similar study to consider an off - street trail along County Road 19 that would connect
the Minnetonka Regional Trail just north of Smithtown Road with the new Dakota Trail
in Orono. The trail would actually extend to Smithtown Road which is a little south of the
Minnetonka Regional Trail,;
➢ The planning process consistdd;of a Project Advisory, Committee comprised of three
residents from each of the three cities, the Three Rivers Park District, Hennepin County
and the Consulting Team from'LHB; "Inc: & Stonebrooke Engineering, Inc.
➢ The team had met with represeutatives fiom the Mimnellaha Creek Watershed District
(MCWD) early ,on. Tile MCWD `4 not been a major participant as of yet as it wants
more specific information to react to.:
➢ To date there have been four meetings with the Project Advisory Committee, two public
open h'oiuses and the joint meeting of the three Cities' councils.
➢ County Road;",19 is aawo lane roadway,within a 66' right -of -way; it doesn't have any
curb and gutter, the 200 "6,�average daily traffic count was 12,000; the 2030 projected
!6M61, is 15,800; and, "its: functional classification is as an A -Minor Arterial
Expander
Some of t ect chili. p gos would be the placement of utility poles on the east side;
steep slopes, requiring I1; driveways that front the roadway; and, stormwater
management. If County 3Road 19 were to be upgraded there would be an opportunity to
f,
address some of the stormwater management issues. He displayed examples of these
o si;acles.
➢ The design standards for an off - street bikeway are for roadways with: an average daily
traffic �of more then 10,000; a motor vehicle speed of 35 miles- per -hour; and a trail
width of X8 '— 10 feet. For rural sections the minimum separation is 10 feet from the
roadway'." For an urban section its 5 feet.
➢ The design standards for an on- street bikeway are for roadways with an average daily
traffic count of more then 10,000 and a motor vehicle speed of 35 miles -per -hour.
Striping would be a solid 4 inch white Line. For rural sections the bike lane width would
be 8 foot wide paved shoulder. For an urban section it would be a 6 — 8 foot wide paved
shoulder.
➢ He displayed illustrations of an on- street bike lane concept, an off - street trail concept,
and a Community Boulevard Concept.
CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTE
November 23 20
Page 5 of 23
The Hennepin County Transportation Department is responsible for the roadways. When
County Road 19 needs to be rebuilt that department and the department Mr. Gillett works
in would team up to reconstruct a roadway with curb and gutter, and resolve the
stormwater management issues.
The Community Boulevard Concept is preferred for the following reasons. It would serve
the local community as well as link the two regional trails. It would provide for an 8 foot
wide trail on one side of the road and 6 foot wide walk on the other side. It would allow
for better stormwater management. It would benefit from the reconstruction of certain
intersections. It would require complete reconstruction of the roadway, which is not
currently planned or programmed.
On- street bicycle lanes would serve as a good interim option ° until the Community
Boulevard Concept can be implemented. They are a safer option than existing conditions.
Existing shoulders can be striped and enlarged in certain locations to accommodate
bicycle lanes.
The very rough concept level cost estimates are,.approximately: $300,000 for the on-
street concept; $3.8 million for the off - street concept; and, $15.4 million for the
Community Boulevard Concept. The intent is to set forth the vision to strive for.
The next steps are as follows. Obtain a Resolution of Support from the Shorewood City
Council setting a vision (Orono and Tonka Bay have already adopted a similar
resolution). Incorporate the Concept Plan into the Three Rivers Park District planning
document, and the Metropolitan Council Trail &,- Open Space Committee planning
document. Seek funding for the- detailed design plan.
Mr. Gillett stated all he is asking for this evening is for this.Council to adopt a resolution stating the City
supports the Concept Design Plan.

Councilmember Zerby stated this -has been a very interesting project and he was excited to be a part of it.
He heard fioiii,'residents that attended the open houses and from other resident representatives on the
Committee how thel_area has changed significantly over the years. There is significantly more traffic on
County Road 19 then`25 — 30.years ago, and the road is no longer safe for pedestrian use as it was back
then. He thought this ,would be a long needed project that restores pedestrian safety and a sense of
community. He expressed his appreciation for the vision and the planning that has gone into the project to
date. He was impressed by the number of people from various areas that worked together to create a
common vision. The Committee considered a number of options. Committee members road the trail on
bikes. The concept plan is something that would be considered at such time Country Road 19 is
reconstructed, noting that reconstruction is not on any plan as of yet. He expressed 100 percent support
for the vision.
Councilmember Bailey asked if Council voted to support the resolution did it mean the City supported all
elements of the project all the way up to the Community Boulevard Concept.
CITY OF SHOR ,W (D REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING TING MINUTES
November 23, 2009
Page 6 of 23
Mayor Lizee clarified that. 400 feet of the plan is in Shorewood, noting the trail would be approximately
3.5 miles long.
Mr. Gillett stated the Concept Plan is suggesting two alternatives. One is the long -term vision for the
Community Boulevard Concept. The other is the interim option. He read the following excerpt from the
proposed resolution which he thought was the recommendation "Whereas, County Road 19 Trail Concept
Design plan contains a preferred alternate for an off-street multi -use trail and on- street bicycle lanes to
be implemented as an interim measure; Now, therefore be it resolved, by the City Council of Shorewood,
Minnesota: to support the recommendation of the County Road 19 Trail Concept Design plan." There are
features of the plan that would be optional when the design work was actually done. The Committee
wants to know if Shorewood supports the basic vision for creating a trail along County Road 19. The next
phase would be to do survey work and some basic design work. It would answer some of the basic
questions there are today.
Mayor Lizee stated by adopting this resolution showing Shorewood's support the City would be
indicating to the Three Rivers Park District to put a placelholder for this in its long -terry plan.
Mayor Lizee noted that Dale Woodbeck, an elected representative on the Board of Commissioners for
Three Rivers Park District who lives in Shorewood, was present this evening. Commissioner Woodbeck
has been present at most of the meetings held on this project.
Commissioner Woodbeck stated he represents Nhorewood as well as the other South Lake Cities, and the
Cities of Minnetonka, Edina and Richfield. He:ekpIained this possible segment of trail is not reflected in
the Three Rivers Park District's system plan. Adopting the, resolution would help get this trail segment
added to the District's long -term plan as a regional trail.'Jhe resolution `adopted by the Cities of Orono
and Tonka Bay which the Shorewood Council is considering this evening provides the community
support that could be carrieCh forward to the Three Rivers Park District's planning organization to have
them include the trail in -its system'lplan. The District is in the process of updating that plan and that
activity will continue intoLQ.0.
Commissioner Woodbeck expained`there is a of County Road 19 that was recently reconstructed
between Crow -M§si h Park Reserve in the City of Rodgers and near a campground in Baker Park Reserve
in the City of Maple Plaun..Along si&l of that section of County Road 19 there is a road separated trail
that is,fa rly complete with the excepti for, a segment in the City of Loretto. Most of the trails in the
District' east and west. The.District believes it's very important to identify areas to create new trails
that could c6fiDect the existing4ail system. He stated he was aware that the City of Minnetrista has had
some discuss►or about extendin0he Dakota Regional Trail through Minletrista to a proposed trail that
would run from k" ke Minnetotka Regional Park under Highway 7 to Carver Park. Once the District
incorporates this tra4" nto the,bistrict's master plan its plan will be sent to the Parks and Open Space
Commission at the Met*,Iitan Council and ultimately on to the Metropolitan Council to approve and
include in its master plari it's in the plan it can't be discussed as a resource.
Councihnember Bailey asked if adopting the resolution would indicate Shorewood would be supporting a
$300,000 bike trail or a $13 million dollar Community Boulevard Concept.
Commissioner Woodbeck stated from his vantage point this Council is being asked to consider the
concept of having a trail connection from Smithtown Road in Shorewood to the Minnetonka Regional
Trail (this is the section that would reside in Shorewood). He explained the segments of trail that would
reside in Orono and Tonka Bay would create the regional trail. Adopting the resolution would indicate
Shorewood's willingness to have the proposed trail included in the planning calendar. The City would not
ci OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL, MEE't`ING MINUFFES
November 23, 2009
Page 7 of 23
be supporting anything in terms of funds because there is no data available to support. The question is
whether or not it's a good idea to connect the Minnetonka Regional "frail and the Dakota Trail with an
off - street trail next to County Road 19.
Mayor Liz& stated the resolution would indicate the City is supporting an idea; it's not committing funds
or property to anything.
Councilmember Zerby stated at sometime County Road 19 will have to be rebuilt. If the City wants to
have any input on how that roadway is improved from a pedestrian perspective now is the opportunity. He
stated if Councilmembers think the road is fine for pedestrian use the way, it is then they should vote
against the resolution.
In response to a comment from Councilmember Turgeon, Councilmember Bailey stated from his vantage
point his question has not been answered. Bailey asked if Council is supporting installing a bike trail
before County Road 19 is reconstructed or is it supporting a Community Boulevard trail option when
County Road 19 is rebuilt. Councilmember Zerby explained there is no timing in the resolution; the
tinging would be established by the Three Rivers Park District and Hennepin County. "
There was an outburst from Shorewood Resident Larry Opfer who questioned why Council was, from his
perspective, wasting the audience's time on something that would.lnappen twenty years out. He asked the
Council members to stifle themselves. Councilmember Bailey told <L�f. Opfer lie was very rude and owed
the Council an apology. Mr. Opfer continued with his outburst. May izee eventually got Mr. Opfer to
settle down.
Mayor Liz& again reiterated Council was being, asked t6`support an idea. It was not being asked to
commit to anything. This idea has been discussed' for_approximately two years. There have been updates
on this and open houses held to present the ideas to.411he community. The resolution is a simple resolution
of support for an idea. The Cities of,O no and Tonka ,'Bay easily adopted the resolution.
id 19 is alreadiysupposed to be No Parking. If cars were truly
vould,,p be a safe corridor for people that bike on the
)ng mtst''of the talked about stretch of the roadway. She
other than Mr. Gillett's presentation about this idea yet she is
ing a concept plan. She noted she will not vote in favor of
- as not able to attend the joint council meeting held at the
in town. She thought it premature to be asked to adopt the
resolution.
Councilmember Z6 stated theme were two public open houses held to discuss this idea.
Councilmember Woodruff stated lie attended the joint meeting and one of the open houses held prior to
that meeting. He stated'had asked the consultant making the presentation what the projected use of tine
trail would be and the answer lie received was it was hard to tell. He then stated the resolution references
the County Road 19 Trail Concept Design plan. It appears that Council is being asked to support the plan,
and from his vantage point Council is indicating to the Three Rivers Park District that it is willing to
support spending approximately $15.8 million to implement the Community Boulevard option for a
benefit that can't be identified. He thought there were a lot of good qualitative benefits to doing this. He
commented if 5,000 people per year for 20 years were to use the trail then each of them may as well be
handed $150. He indicated it makes no sense to him. He stated he could support a resolution that indicates

Shorewood would support the consideration of a trait when County Road 19 is rebuilt. He is not willing to

directors are cozmparing evaluation criteria to ensure there is some consistency. Soft
measutes (e.g,, °values, attitudes, work ethic, team work, etc.) are being identified for

about how the City Administrator's evaluation should fit in with the rest of the staff's
evaluations.
➢ Pay expectations have to be set. Employees who exceed expectations will receive the
base increase and will be provided additional compensation.
➢ The conditions for not meeting expectations include the following. An employee did not
complete projects or tasks on time or within the guidelines established by the department
manager and employee. An employee did not make improvement on issues identified by
the department manager during informal discussions.
➢ An employee's rating may also be down graded for other reasons. They may exhibit a
poor or negative attitude about the work, other employee's, council, and so forth. They

did not respond to residents and others in a timely manner. They showed general
disrespect for residents, council, or other staff. They did not seek to improve their
knowledge, skills, or abilities. They were reluctant to participate with others in problem
solving, or were perceived as a general road block to change and improvement.
The conditions for an employee meeting expectations include the following. They
completed projects and /or tasks and successfully met the expectations as agreed between
the employee and department manager. They generally have a positive attitude, address
team members directly and professionally when there are issues, participates in
collaborative problern solving, and so forth.
The conditions for an employee exceeding expectations include the following. They
complete the projects and /or tasks assigned and they meet the expectations identified by
the employee and department manager. In addition they are a self starter and motivated,
they seek creative solutions to overcome issues, they seek out opportunities to improve
skills and abilities on their own, the participate in group problem solving, and they are
willing to take measured risks and offer new ideas and. ways of operating.
Employees' performance tie into the City's,1hission statement and goals.
Mayor Liz6e thanked Mr. Fursman.
Councilmember Woodruff stated Mr. Fursrnan's presentation was:"good. He asked how close the City is to
completing the implementation of this performance management system. Mr. Fursman stated the goal is
to wrap this up in December 2009. He explained performance measures have been identified for each
non -union staff member, and the identification soft measures is ahnost,complete. He encouraged staff
to start smaller; it shouldn't do the entire change to this type of system at °'oi ce. He noted the employee's
goals for 2009 were not designed for this type of system.

Landini explained the meeting packet for this evening contains three draft resolutions for Council to
consider. The first resolution is to reconstruct Meadowview Road and a segment of Wild Rose Lane with
a 22- foot -wide driving surface and edge control outside of driving surface sanitary sewer and storm
sewer improvements, and extend watermain. The second resolution is to reconstruct Meadowview Road
with a 22- foot -wide driving surface and edge control outside of driving surface, and make sanitary sewer
and storm sewer improvements; it does not include the extension ofwatermain.. The third resolution is to
reclaim Meadowview Road with a 22- foot -wide driving surface and make samtary,sewer and storm sewer
improvements; it does not include the extension of watermain. Council can also direct Staff to prepare
other resolutions.

that live in that area. HeFptoperty is the lowest on the street. Stormwater flows across her driveway then
over her front lawn and into a drainage ditch. She expressed concern that any change in the roadway
could exacerbate her drainage problem. She stated it would make no sense for her to connect to
watermain on Meadowview Road because the line would have to go across her front yard. She had heard
that four years from now watermain could possibly be installed wider Sunnyvale Lane and connecting to
it there would be a much shorter distance, noting she was not saying she wanted to hook up to watermain.
She thought it makes sense to install watermain when a roadway is reconstructed. She asked if property
owners could be assessed for the installation when they decide to hook up to watermain. She also asked if
property owners would be required to hook up to the water system when watermain is installed, to which
Mayor Lizee responded they would not be required to hook up. Engineer Landini explained that during

identify how to mitigate existing drainage issues and design the improvements in such a way as to not
create new issues.
Mayor Liz6e stated during the public hearing for the Nelsine Drive road improvement project Council
chose to reclaim the roadway rather then reconstruct it. Council asked the property owners to work with
the City on granting the City the necessary easements that would allow the City to mitigate drainage
issues.

Mayor Liz6e stated when the City is contemplating reconstructing a roadway it's the City's duty to
consider all of the elements of the City's infrastructure. Liz6e then listed some considerations she has
regarding City water, noting it has not been totally expanded. They are: the future safety of water; ground
water issues; the depth of the ground water; and the future state of the aquifers. She stated the City needs
to protect its water system and ensure that the City can count on it. She stated it is Council's decision as
to whether or not to expand the water system and stub it out to property owners' lots so it is available

when property owners want access to it. She expressed concern that down the road there will be
additional agency mandates relating to water that the City will have to address.
Mr. Luetgers stated his house was built in 1938 and there have not been any problems to date. He did not
see the benefit to him.
Bonnie Rislund 25785 Wild Rose Lane stated she echoed Mr. Luetgers' comments. She submitted a
petition from some of the property owners along the affected segment of Wild Rose Lane indicating their
opposition to the installation of watermain. The property owners have wells that work fine. During these
tough economic times the expense would be a burden to her. She stated she, has lived in her home for 33
years. She expressed her opposition to the installation of watermain, but She thought the roadway surface
could use new blacktop.
Ron Tholen 25715 Wild Rose Lane stated he thought the condition, of the roadway is not great, but it is
usable. He commented that he has lived in his house for 31 years. He commented Wild Rose Lane has
been patched many times. He did not think the roadway needed to be reconstructed at this time. He noted
that lie spent several thousand dollars on his well just three years ago and he has ud,broblem with his
well. He expressed his opposition to the installation of watermain.
Paul Sadek 25850 Wild Rose Lane stated he has lived in his house since 1953 before there was a
Meadowview Road. Prior to there being a Meadowview Road there was simply an easement road. He
then stated he has gone to great expense to.drill and maintain his well, and to treat the water from the
well. He recently had it tested for arsenic and lead, and the water i§z free of both. He expressed his
opposition to the installation of watermain.
Michael Messina, 25720 Wild Rose Lane expressed his`oppositiori to the installation of watermain. He
stated he was not present to abqut the drainage issues that need to be addressed. He then stated that
every day he reads in t>leirewspapex that the government wants to spend more of his money. He urged
Council to take the property owners comments into consideration when making its decision, commenting
the property owners have no.irtterest In watermain. He expressed his amazement that this has gotten as far
as it has without there being propertyowners' support.
Sue Davis; "5495 Vdll' od Circle � stated she was present this evening to speak for the residents at
25825 Valleywood Lane hoting they are opposed to the installation of watermain. She then stated she did
not think drainage issue Ms. Benka spoke of earlier can be addressed by making the proposed
improvements._ The 25825 property is flooded a lot of the time. She thought the proposed improvements
could exacerbdtd� the stormwate j�roblem on her property as well as some of the other properties. She
stated the average daily traffic count for Meadowview Road is probably six with two of the six being
school buses. She"" ented ' at when she sees a car coming down Meadowview Road she looks
because she knows it doesnTb'elonv_ there.
Darrel Jones, 25775 Vhlle_ywood Lane stated his property is at the bottom of the ditch and all of the
stormwater flows to his property. He commented that the property owners with well water get their water
from the same place as the City's water comes from. He has purification and filter systems designed for
drinking water. Therefore, he did not see the need to install watermain just so he could get the same water
as he is already getting. He expressed support for improving the roadways if they need it. He stated
drainage is a significant issue for him. He has two sump pumps in his house because of the water
saturation in the ground. Trees on his property fall over because of water saturation, noting he took out
eight trees last summer. If the roadways have to be repaired to mitigate the drainage issues then so be it.
He expressed his opposition to installing watermain.

Mayor Lizee commented that Shorewood is a very wet city and that water always wins. She stated the
goal from an engineering perspective with regard to stormwater is to keep the water away from
properties.
There was a question from the audience asking if the City's goal is to eventually have a City -wide water
system.
Mayor Lizee stated she did not see that as the goal. The City wants to keep its water system safe and
viable, and to keep it viable the system probably does need to expand. That expansion is being considered
as part of road reconstruction projects. She explained the original water system expansion study
conducted many years ago considered the age of wells, the age ofroadways and the conditions of
roadways. She noted the conditions of the City's roadways are updated every, year to determine which
roadways need to be improved first.

install watermain. Mayor Lize stated watermain installation is included in the cost, if watermain is not
already there, because the"," st to nnstall.,it varies by project.
Mayor Lizee closed the Public Testimony portion of the Public Hearing at 9:00 P.M
Council member ` Wpodruff clarified that the installation of watermain is not the main reason for making
the improvements td "these two 'roadways. He stated Meadowview Road has been high on the list of
proposed roadway impovemetit projects for a couple of years. Staff has worked diligently to prepare a
roadway improvement plan which ranks the condition of each City roadway. As part of a roadway
improvement project, the City has the opportunity to fix stormwater management issues and make
sanitary sewer improvements. When a road is reconstructed a new road base and road bed is put in, curb
and gutter is put in, and improvements to the storm sewer and sanitary sewer systems are made. In
previous meetings Council has discussed that Meadowview Road is not suitable for reclamation because
of the base of the roadway, a condition identified in the engineering reports. When a roadway is to be
reconstructed the installation of watermain is considered because it would be the opportune time to do
that from a cost perspective. This evening Council is considering whether or not the installation of
watermain should be considered as part of the detail design. As part of a road reclamation project some

stormwater management improvements can usually be made, but not the level of improvements that
appear to be needed based on resident feedback.
Councilmember Woodruff went on to state should Council direct Staff to prepare the plans and
specifications to include the installation of watermain Council will have +two more opportunities to decide
if it wants to do that; when the project is let for bids and when the project ,is approved. Council is not
making a decision this evening to install watermain. Prior to making that decision Council will discuss
how the installation of watermain should be paid for. He note&that Council clearly understands that it
could potentially ask for design work that may never be used.

Mayor Lizee stated' expanding this project would delay this project. She asked Staff how long it would be
delayed. Engineer Landini stated adding the two roads would delay the project by two months; the bids
would not be opened��ntil hii y 2010. Lizee indicated that would mean construction would be in 2011.
Landini stated it would b, ifficult to construct the four roadways in the fall of 2010.
Councilmember Turgeon stated the City needs to get a right -of -way easement and the City was to have
that information on November 20' Engineer Landini stated lie researched that at Hennepin County. The
City already has a right -of -way easement at 5570 Meadowview Road and a 17 -foot easement for sanitary
sewer. The City does not have a stormwater management easement. Landini indicated the residents are
willing to discuss such an easement, but it must be amenable to both parties.

Councilmember Turgeon asked if Meadowview Road was reclaimed would it address the drainage issues.
Engineer Landini responded the current estimate in the feasibility report covers only the installation of
drain tile. There would be an additional cost to address any other stormwater issues.
Councilmember Bailey stated it was his recollection that Engineer Landini had previously indicated that
reclamation was not an option for Meadowview Road. Landini explained the soils report states there is
approximately 6 inches of bituminous and dirt underneath the roadway; there is no rock or sand. This
roadway has lasted 36 years this way. If this roadway were to be reclaimed maybe similar results could be
achieved, but he had no way of knowing how long the rock and reclaimed road material would last. The
freeze thaw cycle has a definite impact on it. Drain the is proposed as part of a reclamation effort to try
and divert some of the stormwater away from the roadway to minimize that, but the ground water issue
will not be totally solved. Bailey commented he was not sure he cared about that being the current
roadway has lasted 30 years.

Councilmember Bailey stated that he is not going to support the installation of watermain as part of this
project unless Council redefines its financing policy to one where property owners are not charged for the
cost until such time they decide to connect to the water system. He has no issue including the installation

of watermain in this next phase of the project. Mayor Lizde stated she thought there is full agreement of
the Council on that. Council_ is scheduled to discuss the water policy in January 2010.
Councilmember Zerby stated he agreed with Councilmember Bailey's point of view. He then stated he
thought property owners were reacting to something which is not necessarily the viewpoint of the
Council. He expressed he can support including watermain installation in this next phase of the project,
but before he would approve the actual installation Ile wants to have the water policy redefined.
Councilmember Bailey stated lie equated this to punting the decision about installing watermain down the
road for a month or two. He expressed that he will not support assessing for watermain at the time of
installation for this project. From his vantage point, if Council decides. to install watermain property
owners will be charged when they decided to connect to the water system. Councilmember Turgeon
stated that will be the case if that is what Council agrees to.
In response to a continent from Councilmember Turgeon, Engineer > Landini` stated Council would be

Park Commissioner Davis asked, if Council had ally questions about the matters considered and actions
taken at the November - :10;:2009, Patk,Comniission meeting (as detailed in the minutes of that meeting).
She commented she answered ome questions asked of her by some of the Councilmembers earlier in the
day. David stated the Commission has asked to receive a treasurer's report every month under the agenda
item for reports , She stated the Commission was quite surprised to find out it had approximately $380,000
in the Parks CIP" (capital impr6 nent program). The Commission was also surprised to find out it had
only spent $16,000'of the $148,000 in the 2009 Parks CIP.
Councilmember Turgeon stated she had a question about the agenda item related to 2010 guidelines for
the community garden which consists of 10 plots. She asked if the Park Commission discussed what tine
startup costs will be to get the community garden going. Commissioner Davis stated the Commission has
never received an accounting of how much the community demonstration garden cost because it was
buried in the Public Works budget. But, the Commission has heard via the grapevine about the amount of
trouble that went into keeping the bins full and keeping the spray away from the gardens. This concerned
the entire Commission. She indicated the Commission had been led to believe the gardeners would be self
sufficient. The Commission wanted to ensure going forward that there were clear guidelines so that Public
Works staff would not have to take care of it again. The main issue for the gardeners is the availability of
water. There needs to be a rain barrel at each of the 10 plots for 2010 and the gardeners are expecting the
City to provide them. She commented she was not aware of any other public entity that provides water for

the cost that the City is going to provide it for. The Commission agreed to have Parks and Recreation
provide the fencing in order to maintain some aesthetic control over how it looks. The Commission
recommended $5,200 for that purpose. She thought the community garden is a wonderful amenity to offer
the community and the location is excellent.
Councilmember Zerby stated the Parks CIP is based on rough estimates. He recommended that the Park
Commission exercise caution so as not to assume it should spend any funds that are not needed for a
particular project on something else. He stated be appreciates when Commissioners are frugal when it
comes to seeking authorization to spend funds in the Parks CIP. If a project identified in the CIP is later
deemed to be not necessary then the City should not spend the money. He recommended the focus should
be project oriented not budget oriented.

explained the conditional use permit for the Shorewood Yacht Club (SYC) states the City will monitor
activity, primarily complaints, at the SYC. The City has not received any comments or complaints from
the area residents or the South Lake Minnetonka Police Department this year or last year. Last year the

Nielsen explained in all three applications the applicant proposes to mount three panel type antennas and
three "backhaul" antennas as well as place a small array of ground equipment on each site. On Site 1 the
antennas will be mounted on the stem of the water tower, and the ground equipment will be located
between the two equipment shelters on the site. On Site 2 the antennas will be mounted on the stem of the
water tower. The ground equipment will be located on the east side of the, base of the water tower. An
existing easement precludes locating the facilities on the south or west side of the tower where it would be
less visible. The applicant has proposed to plant a double row of Black Hills Spry ice trees on the east side
of the driveway to the site to mitigate the visibility issue. The trees will screen some of the other
equipment there as well. Staff recommends the trees should be a m'inimun of six feet in height and they
should be planted no later than 1 June 2010. A condition. of approval is the applicant must submit a letter
of credit extending to June 30, 2010, for one and one-half times the bid price for the plantings. On Site 3
the equipment will be located on an existing monopole. The ground equipment will be located within an
existing equipment compound at the base of the existing monopole. Nielsen displayed the site
configurations for each of the three locations noting where the antennas and ground equipment will be
located. Site 3 is dependant on the applicant obtaining a long -term lease for that site.
Nielsen then explained that the City Code regpires hiitial and ongoing monitoring of FCC radiation
emission requirements. The City's standard lease, agreements between 'telecommunications carriers and
the City provide for annual monitoring and, if necessary; testing. The City uses Owl Engineering for such
work.
2. The applicant`` must enter Tinto the City's lease agreement including provisions for annual
monitoring.
3. The,applicant:zrList submit a bid for landscaping on Site 2. The City should require a
letter of credit or cash escrow for one and one -half times the amount of the bid and
at least 30 June 2011.
Nielsen stated Staff is seeking Council's direction to prepare resolutions approving the conditional use
permits and the two accompanying lease agreements for the two public sites for Council's consideration
during its next regular meeting.
Nielsen stated Christopher Coughlin was present to answer any questions Council may have.
In response to a comment from Councihnember Turgeon, Mr. Coughlin stated Clearwire provides a
wireless 4G (fourth generation) broadband service.

Councihnember Zerby asked if Clearwire is still 51 percent owned by Sprint, to which Mr. Coughlin
replied it is.
Councihnember Zerby asked what would happen to the equipment if Clearwire should ever go out of
business. He stated there had been an instance where a carrier went out of business and left its equipment
on the tower. Director Nielsen stated the current lease agreements state carriers are responsible lot
removing equipment. Nielsen explained if a carrier goes out of business the cost to remove the equipment
would have to come out of the lease payments they have made. Director Burton stated for the carrier that
went out of business the City had money in escrow that helped to pay for the removal of the equipment.
Councilmember Zerby stated as long as the removal of the equipment is addressed in the lease agreement
he is in favor of bring other wireless broadband carriers to the market in order ,to, give residents a choice.
Councihnember Woodruff stated it's his understanding that Clea
offer 1.5 megabits per second speed. He was not aware of any oth,
then stated that in order for the City to approve the C,T7.P. for

B. Community Garden Plot and Guidelines R enewZ
This was removed from the consent agenda at Councilmember Turgeon's
Councilmember Turgeon stated she thought asking for approval of the community garden plot pilot
project guidelines for 2010 was premature. She did not think the Council had a very, clear understanding
of what occurred at the demonstration garden in 2009. She asked if the City was , ,responsible for
purchasing the ten rain barrels and topsoil, She also asked what the City's responsibilities are with regard
to the community garden plot. She wanted to be provided with more of an income and expense type
analysis. She stated the City will receive $30 each for nine of the plots. It's estimated that the fencing
around the garden could cost as much as $5,200. There is $7,500 budgeted for the drinking fountain. She
questioned if that was basically for the garc�ener�, and wondered rf recovered the entire cost. She stated
she did not think this was a core service the Crty� uJd provide this'year. She wanted to be provided a
better business plan. She thought there needed to be a better understanding of who is responsible for what
at the garden,
Mayor Lizee stated this proposal discusses having ten plots in , the garden with one of them for the
demonstration garden, noting there have been dozens of people asking when the City will have
community garden plots: he thought asking for a business plan for the community garden was too much.
She thought the guidelines were good:,- She noted that the 'City has discussed bringing water to the South
Shore Skate Park since it was built,, There are ways to.provide water to the gardeners.
Lizee moved, Zertiy seconded, approving the guidelines and registration form for the 2010
community garden protect
Councilmernbi;r Zerby stated he, houghtrlhe basics of a business plan were included in the Staff report.
The income is;,, ,' minimum for 'nine plots. There is a not -to- exceed cost of $5,200 for the fencing and
signage. There s di estimated cost of $7,500 for a water fountain. Engineer Landini stated the City has
the rain barrels in stack., Zerby noted there was a demonstration project in 2009. He also noted a drinking
fountain has been desired for'the Skate Park for a long time. He stated he considered using it for the
community garden a bomis. The fence was questionable to him, but he was confident a good solution will
be found.
Councilmember Turgeon stated she wanted to know how much Public Works time will be spent on the
garden. She commented that Council has been told what didn't work from the gardeners' perspectives in
2009, but it doesn't know what did work.
Councilmember Woodruff stated unfortunately he will have to vote against the motion. He supports the
need for a drinking fountain because there've been requests for it for a long time. He does not support the
community garden at a cost of $5,200 for ten plots. He thought the City may as well hand people money

and tell them to go to CUB to buy their groceries. He stated it makes no sense to spend $520 per plot. He
indicated if the cost for the fencing was removed he could possibly support tine project.
Councilmember Bailey stated if he approved the community garden plot guidelines and registration form
he did not think he was committing to spending $5,200 for fencing and $7,500 for a drinking fountain.
Mayor Liz& stated Council is not approving any funds. Liz& explained the Council Action Form states
the Parks CIP for 2010 includes $5,200 for signage and fencing the community garden and $7,500 for the
drinking fountain at the South Shore Community Park. Bailey stated the $5,200 for a fence concerns him
slightly. He stated he is in support of the guidelines.
Motion passed 3/2 with Turgeon and Woodruff dissenting.
C. Approving the Purchase on One Tot Lot Piece for Each of the Five Parks Renewal

$1,000 per tot lot piece of equipment for each of ihefive parks.on. She questioned if it included
installation. Councilmember Zerby stated the Council Action. Form states the equipment will be installed
in the spring of 2010 by the company. Councilmember Woodruff stated this should be tabled until
Council is provided with the supporting quote.

Councilmember Zerby noted NICE doesn't pay for space. Therefore, he is not interested in what
improvements NICE wants to have made to the building. He expressed concern about the need for the
shelter to also serve as a warming house when no decision has been about there being a suitable skating
surface. He thought this item is premature and more information is needed.
Councilmember Turgeon stated the recommendation includes having more space for indoor recreation.
It's her recollection that Park Commission minutes indicated Staff could help out with the design of the
shelter.

($18,000.00) per year. The first installment of Base Rent will be paid by

Index for All Urban Consumers, All Cities, All Items (1984 = 100)
(the CPI), as published by the United States Department of Labor
Statistics, or if such index shall be discontinued, the successor
index, or if there shall be no successor index, such comparable
index as mutually agreed upon by the parties hereto. To determine
the amlual increase in Base Rent under this paragraph, the
annualized Base Rent for the previous calendar year shall be
multiplied by a percentage figure, computed from a fraction, the
numerator of which shall be the CPI for the third quarter of the
preceding year and the denominator of which shall be the CPI for
the corresponding quarter one year earlier. Such fraction shall be
converted to a percentage equivalent, and shall be multiplied by
the previous year's Base Rent. City shall be responsible for
calculating all annual increases in Base Rent and for
communicating the same to Lessee by December 1 St of each year.
4.) ADDITIONAL RENT. Lessee shall pay all taxes, charges, costs and expenses that are

would adversely affect the status of the Premises with respect to the Lessee's proposed use
thereof. In addition, before obtaining a building permit, Lessee shall cause to be performed and
pay the reasonable cost of. (i) a radio frequency interference study performed by an
independent, qualified communications engineer selected by the City, showing that Lessee's use
contemplated herein will not interfere with any existing communications facilities upon the

structural engineer selected by the City, showing that the Tower is able to support the
Equipment, without prejudice to the City's use thereof (the "Structural Stability Study "). If the
3
Interference Study reveals that there is a potential. for interference that cannot be reasonably
remedied by the Lessee, or the Structural Stability Study reveals that the structure is unable to
safely bear the weight of the Equipment, neither of such findings shall constitute a default by
either party hereto, but Lessee shall have the right to terminate this Agreement in accordance

Department Date
9 WO
The city currently has six standard and one ADA voting booth available at each Election polling location,
with the exception of the Island which only needs two standard booths, and Precinct 3 (the largest
precinct) which has seven standard booths. During the morning and late afternoon/ evening hours, the
polling sites are most busy, so the more voting booths available, the less waiting time residents will have
for an open voting booth.
It was recently confirmed from Hennepin County that the city will not be billed for the AutoMARK assisted
voting equipment maintenance for 2009, as Election Systems & Software (the AutoMARK vendor), verified
that payments for the AutoMARK maintenance made to date carried us through mid -2009. Therefore, the
2009 Election Budget has an approximate $900 balance in the Equipment maintenance line. This request is
to use that balance to purchase four voting booths now, as the 2010 Election Equipment Budget was cut
from $1200 to $600, and the price of the voting booths may go up in 2010.
The following is the pricing received from two vendors that sell voting booths:
American Made Election Equipment (AMEE) $195 each, includes shipping
Election Systems & Software (ES &S) $245 each, does not include shipping
All of the voting booths that we currently use were purchased from ES &S. Last year, several cities
purchased voting booths from AMEE (see attached), and they were pleased not only with the price, but
also the quality of the product, which is a similar style as the ES &S voting booth. The soft curtain booth
is recommended; it not only looks nice, but it is lighter weight and made of a commercial grade material
that will not be punctured. Both the AMEE soft curtain and hard curtain booths cost $195 each.
Options
1. Authorize expenditure of funds for the purchase of four AMEE voting booths for a total of $780,
with funds in the Election equipment maintenance budget.
Do not approve the request
Staff Recommendation
Authorize expenditure of funds for the purchase of four AMEE voting booths for a total of $780, with
funds in the Election equipment maintenance budget.

Staffing recommendations were presented to the Council at the December 7, 2009 work session. During
that session, I went over the recommendations regarding reporting structure, duties assigned to various
departments, and a redeployment strategy for staff.
Attached is the memorandum presented at that meeting along with the new Organizational Chart.

Re:
Operational Changes
In the past year I have had the opportunity to further observe how staff operates and how
things function. I made recommendations on shuffling a few things around last year including
the elimination of a position. The Council accepted and approved these recommendations and
they were implemented at the start of 2009.
Several of the alterations have worked out well and I reported this assessment to the Council at
the September 14, 2009 council meeting.
What follows are additional recommendations for consideration regarding the operational and
organizational structure for the City.
Organizational Chart / Structure Change
The current organizational chart and reporting scheme has the City Engineer reporting to the
Public Works Director. I am recommending that the City Engineer report directly to the City
Administrator. There are several reasons for this recommendation. The main reason for this
is to give the City Engineer the opportunity to expand and develop his skills and knowledge in
managing road and storm water projects. Secondarily, the position is treated as a department
head level position. Department heads report to the Administrator so having the City
Engineer report to the Administrator fits that model. Thirdly, having the City Engineer report
to the administrator takes some of the pressure off of Larry. In looking at the information that
led to the creation of the position, one of the main factors was to relive some of Larry's work
load. While there has been a bit of improvement in this area, I believe greater improvement
can be achieved so Larry has more time to focus on the long range, big picture issues facing
the City and its infrasti ucture needs.
I consulted with Lamy and James on this recommended alteration and there were no major
concerns raised.
My vision is for Fames to take tlae leadership role in the planning and III-IDIenientation of road
and storm. water improvement projects, to allow him the authority to use contract engineering
services for field work, surveys, and technical work in association with road and storm - water
projects,
Larry and I will be kept appraised of project progress through regular meetings with James.
0 3
Attached is a revised and updated Organizational Chart.
Operational Changes
Administration
For several years the administration of human resources activities (labor relations, contract
admii benefits administration, workers compensation, etc.) has been part of the
Finance department. Risk management e.g. the city's property and casualty insurance, OSAH
compliance, legal claims, etc, have also been part of this department.
I am recorm moving these major functions out of the Final Department and include
them as part of Administration. First and foremost, these are two areas where I have
considerable knowledge and expertise and I have discovered over the past several months that
the City has erred in the application, administration, and implementation of the urlion contract
and blurred the line between union and non-union employees. To date, the errors have been to
the benefit of the uriion members so claims the city violated the Mii Public Employee's
Labor Relations Act (MPELRA) have not been made. I fully understand the desire and goal
of equity regarding teens and conditions of employment and want to ensure the City continues
to strive toward that end, however, we must do so in a manner that is consistent and compliant
with MPELRA.
Risk management and safety applies to more than just the Public Works staff. Larry has been
doing a fine job of keeping this department up to speed. We are lacking the same level of
concern and compliance with the rest of the City. Legal claims against the city are another
area where there appears to be some level of disjointedness as each department may keep
information and / or files on the san claim. This is most notable in the Ron Johnson situation
where Larry, Brad, and Administration all had files on these cases. Some was duplicated;
some was not. In dealing with legal claims, it is best to have one department that handles the
file and correspondence with legal Counsel, in most cases for city's our size, this is the
responsibility of Administration.
Finally, having these areas under Administration conforms to the current policy manual as it
relates to personnel; this structure is what I an used to and it is how f choose to organize the
organization.
What this means to the employees is that any issues regarding personnel, administration of the
tD
union contract or policy and procedures, compensation, and employee benefits, will be
directed to the Administrator. Finance will be advised and consulted, as will the benefits
committee and Finance will still process payroll. Employees, who wish to change

.PLANNING AND ZONING AN PRO "ECTIVE INS ECTIOAT
For the past few years, the level of activity in these two departments has decreased. The
decrease is most noticeable in the Planning and Zoning area and it is becoming increasingly
difficult to justify the level of staffing allocated to this activity. See the attached graphs
showing zoning applications, permit revenue, and building inspections.
I believe there are a few areas that could use additional attention or resources allocated. The
city has a recently remodeled City Mall, has several park buildings and the public works
garage as well as assumed the operational responsibility for the SouthShore Center. In the
past, these facilities have seen a lack of general proactive maintenance and that has resulted in
undue deterioration and added maintenance costs. To provide more proactive prevention and
coordination for all ouir facilities, I am recommending allocating a portion of Joe Pazandak's
time to this activity. I aln unsure how much time will be allocated to this activity in 2010. We
will track the time and make adjustments as necessary.
The plaiming department has 1.2 FTE planning assistants and a full -time director. As
mentioned above, this level of staffing is difficult to maintain based on the current level of
activity and I don't expect a significant rise in activity in the firturre. I am recommending
Pamela's time be devoted to website activities and assistance at the front counter as needed.
Pamela continues to improve the website and now that the city is managing the SouthShore
Center operations, more of her time is needed to re -brand the SouthShore Center website and
information.
Pattie has been involved in Geographical Information Systems (GIS) mapping for the past few
years and can be an asset to James in preparing and producing maps and related materials for
engineering. There were a few mapping projects that were started by not finished and Pattie
can use her talents and skills in this area working with James. I am reeonunending some of
her time be reallocated toward supporting this activity and this should free up some time for
James to focus on the project management side of things.
Overall I would like to see Planning and Zoning down to about 1.5 or 1.6 FTE.
PARKS, RECREA TION AND SOUTHSHORE CENTER
2010 is going to be a big year for parks and recreation as the Park Commission has
recommended an aggressive capital improvement prograin as well as continuation of some
popular new activities. Response From Commission members thus far are positive in terms of
the contractual arrangement the City has with Community Rec. Resources. The responses
point to better information being provided as well as being timelier in the production of
information. There were a few comments about process, specifically in regard to the CIP that
was recommended.
Our current arrangement calls for up to 23 hours of time for park and recreation related work
from Commtunity Rec. Resources. We also have .65 FTE allocated to this activity as well. In
9 Page 3
addition to coordinating floe completion of the C1P for the parks and ensurin;.g the smooth
continuation of progamn - inu _g, the City will be the operating the SouthShore Center via
contract with CRR, The agreement with CR provides 17 hours of service to oversee the
marketing, rentals, and general operations. The highest and best use of contract time is
generating °avenue tun °ough increased rentals, additional programs, and partnerships. To
provide additional resources toward the SouthShore Center, I am proposing to allocated
additional staff time, mainly Twila, to support SouthShore Center activities as well as
continuing to support parks and recreational activities.
I will also devote more time at least at the begirming of the year, toward parks, recreation and
the operation of the SouthShore Center. Julie and Pamela will also have a bit of their time
included in the SouthShore and Parks to help with marketing and promotions.
PUBLIC WORICS AND ENTERPRISE OPERA TIONS
The City continues to push forward with an aggressive street reconstruction and maintenance
program as well as pursuing more activity and work in storm water in terms of maintenance
and inspections. To meet the need in this area, additional resources may be needed and one
way to provide additional resources is through the use of seasonal workers. We will monitor
staff allocations more closely in 2010 and will evaluate the possible need for seasonal type
employees for 2011.
At this point, my overall goal is to keep current employees whole in terms of hours of work
and I am attempting to accomplish this through reallocation of time to areas where there is a
demonstrated need. I want to avoid, if at all possible, the reduction in hours or the elimination
of positions; however, such actions may be necessary as we move forward. My preference,
should the reduction in hours or positions need to be considered in 2011 or beyond, is to first
examine contractual relationships and see if contracted services are better or more efficiently
provided by current staff.

Significant Business of the LMCC
December 14, 2009
Report to Shorewood City Council
Patrick J. Hodapp
LMCC Executive Committee / Vice Chair
A check of approximately $61 K has been received from Mediacom for the audit
findings discussed in my last report. Mediacom may attempt to recover
approximately $43K of this amount through a temporary surcharge on customers'
bills in early 2010. If Mediacom moves forward in this direction, the LMCC will
likely solicit additional advice from our legal counsel on how we may be able to
prevent this from occurring.
o Under the guidance of the Personnel Committee, the LMCC has engaged with the
Altura Consulting Group to help review and make improvements as required in
the following areas as they pertain to staff.
1) Job description / employee evaluation and review process
2) Salary review and market comparison
3) Employee benefits review and market comparison
Shorewood staff may be receiving a questionnaire as part of this process. We
would appreciate whatever input you are able to provide.
The FTTP Committee remains active and the LMCC continues to explore the
possibility of overbuilding a government owned fiber infrastructure. The
Committee has invited consultants and bond professionals to the December 15"'
2009 Executive Committee meeting. There may be an opportunity for the LMCC
to take an additional step in this direction by performing a second more detailed
study on what it would take to undertake such an endeavor.
Over the next few months, the LMCC will take a hard look at the timeline and
process for franchise renewal. The current franchise agreement expires in 2013.
Understanding this timeline and the process for renewal is important as we look to
achieve some level of competition in broadband data access. Competition could
possibly come from a government owned fiber infrastructure or the entrance of a
competitive overbuilder. Efforts will begin soon to see if the LMCC is able to
generate any interest from additional providers who may wish to provide service
to the LMCC area.

Department: Planning Council sleeting: 12/14/09 Item number:
From: Brad Nielsen, Planning Director
•� + ,, u�' :.I
From the meeting last Monday, staff has researched in -house training for Planning Commission
members (and Council if they desire). It appears that John Shardlow will have some availability
in late January or February. He asks that we work through the Government Training Service
(GTS) to make the arrangements. GTS staff has been tied up with training sessions in St. Paul
this week, but has estimated the cost of the training to be approximately $1000 for a four -hour
session and $1200 -$2000 for a six to eight -hour session. Using the information from 2009 GTS
sessions, an eight -hour session (e.g. Basics of Planning and Zoning or Beyond the Basics...)
would cost $125 per head. If six members attended, that would be $750 per session. The last
time we offered the in -house training, we tailored a session to suit our needs and invited
surrounding cities to participate for only the cost of lunch. The sessions were well received and
if agreeable, Shorewood could probably recoup some of the cost of the training by charging a
nominal fee (say $35 -50) for outside participants.
Options
Staff feels the longer customized session would obtain the most value. The bad news is, travel,
conferences and schools has been cut way back for 2010, not leaving enough money to cover
the expense. The good news is, the 2009 budget was underspent (mainly because staff did not
attend the national conference this year) and could cover the cost. If agreeable, the Council
could authorize the Finance Department to issue a check this year for not to exceed $2000. As
an alternative, the underspent money from 09 would go into the general fund and if the
training is provided in 10, the amount would show up as over budget for that year.
Staff Recommendation
If the Council is agreeable to the in -house training, it should direct staff to either draft a check not to
exceed $2000 to GTS, or go on record as being aware that the 2010 budget will be over spent in this
area. Depending on the decision, staff will begin working with the Planning Commission to develop a
training session that suits our needs.
Council Action:
Each year in December, the City Council considers salary and benefit contribution adjustments for non-
union staff to take effect January 1.
Attached is a detailed memorandum outlining the recommendations provided below.
Recommendation
1. Hold all wages and salaries at the current 2009 level and provide no increases to non -union staff.
2. Provide each employee $825 per month toward benefits.
3. Allow employees who choose the Health Savings Account plan to use any premium savings toward
the deductible up to $2,500.
4. Adopt the changes to the Personnel Policy Manual as it relates to Compensation so that it is
consistent with the performance based compensation plan.
5. Adopt the recommended salary schedule for 2010.
Council Action:
MEMORANDUM
• '.
11111111111111111 11111
In December of each year, the Council establishes the rate that compensation will increase and also the
amount the City will contribute toward employer provided benefits (life, dental, short and long term
disability, and health). In past years, the Council provided increases as an across the board adjustment
to all wages generally based on the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the Minneapolis /St. Paul
Metropolitan Statistical Area and on a survey of other similarly sized municipalities. According to the
Bureau of Labor Statistics, the CPI was down 1.5% for the first half of 2009. The most recent information
shows an annual decrease of .2% in the CPI (seasonally unadjusted number). The expectation is for the
CPI to remain relatively flat and end the year at close to 0% or a .1- .2% rise when adjusted.
Additionally, the overall economy continues to lag and uncertainty about the recovery will continue to
restrict the City's ability to finance operations including wages and benefits.
The premium for the City's health insurance will increase in 2010 by about 15% for the co -pay plan and
about 20% for the Health Savings Account Plan. Additionally, Medica is eliminating the current $15
dollar co -pay plan and replacing it with a $25.00 co -pay. Dental rates are also increasing modestly for
non -union staff. Union staff have dental provided through their Union and the cost for this program has
not increased. Finally, we are looking at alternative providers for Life, short term and long term
disability with the hope rates will decline or remain stable.
WAGES
The Council adopted a new program and method of compensation for 2010 based completely on an
employee's performance. This new program does not provide for a general increase to employees with
a potential for additional compensation based on performance. The budget for 2010 included $24,000
for performance adjustments. This allocation was removed from the budget. Furthermore, the fire
board held fire fighter and staff compensation at 0% for 2010, the SLMPD board and negotiating
committee are attempting to hold the 2010 contract to a 0 %, and the Council is offering the union staff
0% in 2010.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended staff hold wages for staff at the 2009 level for 2010 and the Council adopt the
Recommended 2010 salary table attached. This chart removes the "steps ".
POLICY MANUAL AMENDMENTS
It is recommended the Council adopt the attached policy manual changes related to compensation to
become effective January 1, 2010.
BENEFIT CONTRIBUTION
The current contribution toward employee benefits is $777. Any amount over this base contribution is
paid by the employee. The City currently provides and mandates coverage for life, short and long term
disability. Optional coverage is dental and health.
The City currently offers two health insurance options — a traditional co -pay plan and a health savings
account plan (HSA). The majority of employees select the co -pay plan. This plan provides 100%
coverage for most services after payment of $25.00 co -pay by the employee. This plan is also more
expensive on a monthly premium basis for the employee. The HSA plan has a lower monthly premium,
but the employee is responsible to cover the first $2,500 in charges for service. When this deductible is
met, the plan covers 100% of most services. Both plans cover preventative visits, including regular
screenings and well child checks at 100% and those on the HSA also receive services at the negotiated
rate.
Employee's can put money into their HSA account without paying taxes and use the funds to pay
medical claims also without tax implications. The money in the HSA account is the employee's money
and carries from year to year and goes with the employee if they obtain employment elsewhere or
retire.
RECOMMENDATION
it is recommended that the City Council authorize a flat dollar amount of $825 per month per employee
to be used to cover premium costs for life, short and long term disability, and dental. Dollars remaining
after these premiums are paid will be used toward the employee's health insurance premium. In order
to encourage employees to consider the health savings account option, it is recommended that staff
that elects to enrol in the HSA plan keep the savings to them and the City in an amount equal to the
single deductible of $2,500. For example, an employee's total cost for all coverage with the HSA is $612
per month will get $208 added to their HSA account by the City, thus the total contribution for this
employee is $820. Conversely, if an employee's monthly cost is $956 per month, the City will contribute
the full $825 and the employee will pay $131 out of pocket for their benefits.

6.0 COMPENSAT
6.01. Wage Administration Plan
The salary structure of the City of Shorewood is based upon the following:
1) Competitive wages for the labor market
2) Compliance with the Minnesota Pay Equity Act (also known as the "Comparable North
Act "), to insure equitable compensation relationships among positions within the City
3) Providing incentive and recognizing good performance
4) Providing appropriate flexibility in administration
1. Classification and Compensation Plan
A classification and compensation plan was adopted in July 2006. It identified the job points for
each position and established the pay relationships among them. Data from a survey of other
cities' salary ranges established the market for each position's compensation. By combining the
internal relationships and external salary ranges, pay ranges were established for each City
position.
The compensation system is a "pay band" system. A salary range is established for each
position, with the beginning of the range at 76% of the top of the pay range (also referred to as
the "market" pay). I --

t�
The City Council and Staff have been working on establishing goals and objectives for 2010 since early
