VEMENT PROGRAM
Director DeJong stated the purpose for this meeting is to discuss the 2012 budgets for the City's four
Enterprise Funds (Water, Sewer, Stormwater Management and Recycling) and the associated 10 -year
Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for each. The meeting packet contains copies of each of those
documents. The Enterprise Funds are solely supported by revenues to the City's business operations. He
noted that at the start of the meeting he distributed copies of a Financial Management Plan (FMP) through
2020 for those four Funds. He stated the budget documents show the actual revenues and expenditures for
2008 — 2010, 2011 budget amounts, 2011 year -to -date actual amounts, 2011 year -end projections, and
2012 preliminary budget amounts. The salary information was determined using 2011 actual amounts for
each of Enterprise oberation as a base.
DeJong asked Council if it had any questions about the Water Fund preliminary budget.
Councilmember Zerby stated the FMPs reflect salaries will increase approximately 25 percent over a ten -
year period. He asked Director DeJong to comment on that. DeJong explained that is based on the salary
and benefit inflation factor of 2 percent beginning in 2012, noting there is a compounding effect in 2013-
2020. That same inflation factor was used for all expenses starting in 2012 and for revenues starting in
2013. The budget projections for 2012 and forward assume the City will do exactly the same things;
baseline services will not change.
In response to a question from Councilmember Woodruff, Director DeJong explained with the exception of
the Recycling budget the Enterprise budgets include an expense line item for depreciation. For financial
reporting the Enterprise Funds have to be run like a business and they are therefore on full accrual
accounting. That means the capital outlay (the cash spent on assets for projects) is not expensed. That
capital expense is depreciated over the expected life of the asset. The FMP does not include a line item for
depreciation. It does include capital outlay.
CITY OF SHOREWOOD WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES
October 10, 2011

Councilmember Woodruff stated the amounts for debt service in the Water Fund are not the same in the
budget and the FMP. For example, the bond principal amount for in the 2012 budget is $295,000 and in
the FMP it's $175,000. Director DeJong stated the amount in the FMP is accurate and he noted he will
correct that.
Director DeJong noted there may be a need to construct a new water treatment plant in 2012 and that is not
reflected in any of the Water operations documents. He stated if the assumption is made to raise the water
utility rates by some inflationary amount there will continue to be a very significant balance in the Water
Fund. The balance would be much greater than what is needed on a cash flow basis. He asked Council how
it wants to manage that. He stated based on the amount of money in the balance he is reluctant to
recommend increasing the rates at this time unless other projects are identified that must be done.
Mayor Liz& suggested leaving the balance alone at least until Council has its discussion about the City's
water connection fee during its November 14 work session. Councilmember Siakel agreed with that.
In response to a comment by Councilmember Zerby, Director Brown explained the water main extension
projects listed in the Water Fund CIP are associated with roadway reconstruction projects proposed for
2012-2015.
In response to a question from Zerby, Director DeJong explained revenues from potential water connection
fees have not been factored into the Water Fund budget or the FMP. Projects can be funded without that
source of revenue. He noted the last few years there' have only been a few people who connected to City
water.
Councilmember Woodruff commented that he is comfortable with applying a 2 percent inflationary factor
for revenues in 2013. He stated he thought a small portion of the salaries are being double counted. They
are in the Enterprise Fund budgets and in the General Fund Budget. Because the amounts are small he
indicated he did not think the buds4ets should be chans4ed.
Councilmember Siakel asked when the water utility rates were last changed. Director DeJong responded in
2009 based on a water study that was done. Administrator Heck stated the rates were adjusted to encourage
water conservation, noting the base water usage rate went down and higher usage rates went up. DeJong
stated it's difficult to determine if water usage went down because of the adjusted rates or if it was because
there was more rain. DeJong then stated at the end of 2011 it should be possible to better assess the impact
of the adjustments in rates. Councilmember Woodruff stated there isn't enough data to make a rate decision
at this time.
Siakel noted there are not a lot of water system related capital improvement projects planned.
Councilmember Woodruff asked Director Brown to comment on the Radio /ISP Communications System
projects planned for 2012 and 2013. Brown stated he should have labeled the project a Superior Control
and Data Acquisition ( SCADA) System. Brown explained there are five lift stations that are on the web
based SCADA System. He stated he is very pleased with that system. He explained that on October 7 1
there were two power outages at the sanitary sewer system lift stations on the islands. In the past Public
Works employees would have had to drive out to the lift stations on the islands to determine what
happened. With the SCADA System they were able to determine it was caused by a power blip without
ever having to leave the Public Works facility. They were able to monitor the water levels from the facility.
The SCADA System probably saved about four hours of time. The plan is to use the SCADA System for
CITY OF SHOREWOOD WORK SESSION MEETING MINUTES
October 10, 2011
Page 3 of 5
the City's water system as well. In 2011 the SCADA System is planned for the water system but it's most
likely it will be completed and invoiced in 2012.
Councilmember Zerby stated he thought the Water Fund budget was prepared well. But, it appears as if
there is some policy woven into the budget. For example, there is not a policy to raise the water utility rate
every year yet 2 percent inflationary factor was included in the budget. Also, there is nothing budgeted for
water connection fees.
Director DeJong stated Staff is open to presenting the budget however Council wants to see it. He then
stated part of the State of Minnesota's problem is its budgets have been assuming an increase in revenues
but no increase in expenditures until it has actually negotiated labor contracts.
Councilmember Zerby stated he would prefer to keep water rates as they are because of the substantial
cash balance in the Water Fund.
Director DeJong noted the consumer price index inflation is about 1.7 percent right now.' The implicit price
deflator (the official inflation factor the State used for levy limits for a number of years) is over 3 percent.
He stated that what ever the project costs are predicted to be they will be wrong. The projections are to give
Council a general idea of what may happen.
With regard to the Sewer budget and CIP Director DeJong stated there isn't much scheduled for
replacement. In years 2012 — 2021 of the CIP $70,000 has been budgeted for Infiltration and Inflow
reduction. The amount is based on the televising that has been done in the past. There are not any capital
projects included in the CIP after 2013. The FMP for the Sewer Fund indicates the cash balance will be
much greater than what is needed on a cash flow basis (about $600,000 is needed for that). Therefore,
some of the Sewer Fund balance (up to $1.4 million) could potentially be used to fund Stormwater
Management projects or other activities.. Starting in 2014 the Stormwater Management Fund will enter into
a deficit state.

bout the possibility of bonding for such projects. The City could
ids and pay for them over time.
Mayor Lizee stated that historically the City has used funds from the Sewer Fund for non -sewer related
projects. Councilmember Woodruff clarified in 2009 $1 million from the Sewer Fund was used to create a
Community Infrastructure Fund. Funds were borrowed, and paid back, from Sewer Fund to purchase the
City -owned residential property.
Councilmember Woodruff stated the City has the financial wherewithal to internally finance stormwater
management projects from the Sewer Fund. There is no need to jockey the stormwater utility rates. He does
not think there is any need to bond for projects at this time. Using internal money is cheaper than bonding.
Director DeJong stated the City has kept the option of bonding open.
Councilmember Zerby stated he is open to using some of the Sewer Fund balance for stormwater
management projects. He then stated Council needs to exercise caution about using too much of the Sewer
Fund because the FMPs for the Sewer Fund and the Stormwater Management Fund show that by 2020 the
combined fund balance of those two funds will only be approximately $700,000. Each year starting in 2013

Page 4 of 5
revenues exceed expenses for both funds. He noted at some point there will need to be a rate increases to
reverse that trend.
Director DeJong stated the additional stormwater utility projects that are planned could result in additional
maintenance demand on the Public Works Department. Some of that maintenance work may have to be
contracted out.
Councilmember Woodruff stated he's comfortable with the numbers in the FMPs knowing funds could be
transferred from the Sewer Fund to the Stormwater Management Fund and both funds would be healthy for
a long time.
Councilmember Siakel asked what the proposed 2013 Valleywood
entail. Director Brown stated that project, like some of the other
associated with roadway reconstruction projects. When the roadw;
structures and ponding facilities are added.
Director DeJong noted the meeting packet contains a document titled
Cost and it includes storm sewer project costs for projects that are
reconstruction projects. The estimates are subject to feasibility rep{
projects.
Councilmember Woodruff stated reconstructing those roadways is j
expensive assumption. It's possible those roadways proposed for recc
and that would result in the costs for the storm sewer improvements
projects being lower.

Councilmember Woodruff stated he likes that the 2012 Recycling Fund budget programs $6,000 in
revenues in City Clean -up Fees. He then stated no revenues are forecast for the remainder of 2011 for that.
Director DeJong stated the Recycling Fund budget show the revenues from and expenses for the City's
clean -up program. The expenses are included in miscellaneous services. It just wasn't extended out.
Director DeJong noted that it costs the City money each year to sponsor the clean -up program. The fees
generated do not cover the cost.
Councilmember Siakel stated it seems to her that if the City has to raise recycling rates it would be
nominal. Director DeJong responded that the City has approximately 2,500 residential recycling accounts.
If the residential recycling rate were raised $0.50 per quarter that $5,000 in additional revenues would go a
long way towards balancing the 2012 Recycling Budget. Siakel stated she used 2,600 accounts and a $2 a
year rate increase should balance the budget, and she thought it makes sense to raise the annual rate by $2.

Councilmember Woodruff stated the City is in the second year of the five -year contract. Therefore, the 2
percent inflation factor should not be applied for contractual services for 2012 — 2014. Administrator Heck
stated he thought there is a small adjustment in the fourth or fifth year of the contract.
Councilmember Zerby stated the Recycling Fund FMP reflects the County Recycling Aid will stay flat.
Director DeJong noted that the Recycling Fund budget does not include anything for organics recycling
should the City decide to offer that service City -wide. Councilmember Woodruff stated if the City decided
to offer that at the end of the pilot program he assumes is will be a breakeven program.
Administrator Heck stated Council needs to discuss if it wants to pursue other options for solid waste
collection. Staff is still gathering data for that.
With regard to the Stormwater Management Fund, Director DeJong noted there is a lot of stormwater
management projects proposed and there is not much funding for them. He explained the FMP for this
Fund reflects it will have a deficit of more than $1.2 million at the end of 2020. The Fund enters into a
deficit state in 2014 and never comes out of it. Earlier in this discussion Council discussed the possibility of
transferring funds from the Sewer Fund into the Stormwater Management Fund. If Council wants to do that
he will adjust the two FMPs to reflect that. He noted that many of the stormwater management projects are
mandated by the National Pollution Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) standards. He also noted this
year the City did a number of projects that were not included in the Stormwater Management Fund CIP.
Those projects needed to be done. That could happen again in future years.,
Director Brown stated Engineer Landim and he are discussing the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency
(MPCA) requirements on electronic record keeping. The MPCA has more than highly recommended
moving to that in its management letter. The CIP doesn't have anything budgeted for that because Staff has
not had the time to evaluate all of the options.

Committee developed a Trail Plan Implementation Report (the Report). The draft of the Report was
forwarded to the Park Commission for review and comment. After that the Planning Commission held a
public hearing on the Report. The Planning Commission has recommended a very small amendment to
the Comprehensive (Comp) Plan that to include the Trail Plan and the Trail Implementation Report

subject to review and comment by the Metropolitan (Met) Council and adjoining cities. A copy of a draft
resolution amending the Comp Plan is included in the meeting packet. If the resolution is adopted the
amended Comp Plan Report will be forwarded to the Met Council and adjoining cities. The Met Council
will have 60 days to comment on the Trail Plan and the Report portion of the amended Comp Plan. He
noted the Trail Capital Improvement Program (CIP) has been taken out of the Report because the costs in
it need to be revised.

Councilmember Woodruff stated the cover memo for the application states the grant will reimburse the
City for 75 percent of the trail construction cost. He asked what the total cost will be. Administrator Heck
responded Staff is using a cost of $25 per linear foot.
Councilmember Zerby suggested changing "9500 linear feet of paved trail from Smithtown Road" to
"9500 linear feet of paved trail along Smithtown Road ". He noted he has been in support of doing this for
18 years.
Zerby moved, Lizee seconded, Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 11 -055 "A Resolution Supporting the

Councilmember Woodruff suggested the resolution be amended to change "from the LRT on County
Road 19, Tonka Bay /Shorewood border to Smithtown Road" to reflect that it should connect to the
existing trail in Tonka Bay.
Councilmember Zerby stated this is another great idea. This connection is the missing link. It will provide
a connection from the LRT Trail to Badger Park, the Shopping Center, the Southshore Community Center
and City Hall.
Zerby moved, Siakel seconded, Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 11 -056 "A Resolution Supporting

D. Amending Chapter 308 of the Shorewood City Code as it Pertains to Transient
Merchants, Solicitors, Peddlers, Canvassers and Garage Sales
Administrator Heck stated the meeting packet contains a copy of a draft amendment to the City Code
Chapter 308 titled Transient Merchants, Solicitors, Peddlers, Canvassers and Garage Sales. He
highlighted some the changes proposed. In the purpose section hawkers were deleted; solicitors and
canvassers were added. In the definition of garage sales and in exclusions for garage, rummage and craft

is denied the City refunds 50 percent of the annual fee paid. Staff proposes dropping the refund provision
and increasing the fee to $100. He noted the City of Excelsior charges a fee of $120 and some of the fees
charged by other surrounding cities range from $75 to $100.
Councilmember Siakel stated she is not in favor of raising the fee to $100. To her it seems it would
penalize those people who are applying for licenses. She then stated if the $50 covers the administrative
costs she prefers that it stay at $50. She suggested Staff put more effort into trying to get others to apply
for licenses. She asked what the rationale is for allowing door -to -door activities to occur from 9:00 A.M.
— 9:00 P.M. She stated 9:00 P.M. seems late to her and she recommended changing that to 7:00 P.M. She
suggested publishing something in the City's newsletter reminding residents to ask solicitors and
canvassers to show a copy of their license.

in Section 308.08. He agreed with keeping the license fee at $50.
There was Council consensus to continue this item to the October 24, 2011, Council meeting
E. Domestic Partner Registry Discussion
Administrator Heck noted that Mayor Lizee had asked him to the research domestic partner registration
topic about a month ago and to put it on a meeting agenda. He stated the City of Hopkins has adopted a
domestic partnership registration ordinance as have a number of other cities in the State of Minnesota. It

applies to same gender or opposite gender couples. He asked Council if it wants Staff to prepare draft
language for this.
Mayor Lizee stated this issue has been talked about in the State for at least 20 years. She noted the first
domestic partner registration was in the City of Minneapolis in 1991. Since then the Cities of Duluth,
Edina, Golden Valley, Maplewood, Minnetonka, Red Wing, Richfield, Robbinsdale, Rochester, St. Louis
Park and St. Paul have also approved domestic partnership registration ordinances. She explained that
during the candidate forum last year that was one of the questions posed to the candidates. There was not
a lot of understanding about it at that time. Since then, there have been more discussions about it in the
City and the surrounding communities. She thought it important for Council to discuss. She asked
Council if there is interest in pursuing this.

A. Stop Sign Request — Yellowstone / Glencoe Road
Administrator Heck explained that during its May 23, 2011, meeting Council considered a request for the
installation of stop signs at the intersection of Yellowstone Trail and Glencoe Road. Staff recommended
the request be denied based on the results of a traffic study and the current City policy related to the
placement of signs. If there was sight line issues Staff took steps to clear brush, vegetation and tree limbs
CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
October 10, 2011
Page 7 of 12
to improve the sight lines. Council denied the request. Scott Haskins and some of is neighbors have asked
Council to reconsider the request. Staff again recommends Council deny the request for the same reasons.
Engineer Landini stated he provided Council with information on warrants for stop signs. He reviewed
them. The first is for stopping the direction that conflicts the most with established pedestrian crossing
activity or school walking routes. The second is stopping the direction that has obscured vision, dips or
bumps that already require drivers to use lower operating speeds. The third is stopping the direction that
has the longest distance of uninterrupted flow approaching the intersection. The fourth is stopping the
direction that has the best sight distance to conflicting traffic.
Landini reviewed the conditions of which one of them should exist to warrant a stop sign at an
intersection. An intersection of a less important road with a main road where application of the normal
right -of -way rule would not be expected to provide reasonable compliance with the law. A street entering
a through highway or through street. An unsignalized intersection in a signalized area. Other intersections
where high speed, restricted view, and crash records indicate a need for control by the stop sign.
Landini explained for the May 23r meeting Staff pr(

Mayor Lizee stated it is her recollection that during the May 23r discussion it was more of a sight line
issue. Residents complained the visibility wasn't very good. During that meeting Council directed Staff to
mitigate any sight line issues.
Scott Haskins` distributed' a memorandum authored by his neighbor (who lives across the street from him)
Stephanie Sisneros, 23535 Yellowstone Trail He stated 7 — 8 families live in the area he does. When they
moved in they didn't expect vehicles to be traveling 50 — 60 miles per hour. He thanked Engineer Landini
for getting him the traffic report. He stated 800 vehicles per day is a lot. He then stated he hoped the 85
percentile speed record of 28 29 miles per hour is true; that is a reasonable speed. He related that Ms.
Sisneros believes the vehicles are traveling 50 — 60 miles per hour, noting she is at home during the day.
He related he and his neighbors appreciate the City putting the speed buggy out for a while. He stated he
and his neighbors are trying to protect their children. He noted that people walk on the roadway every
day. He stated he believes there is a blind spot in the intersection.
Mr. Haskins noted that both of his children are hearing impaired. He stated if they can't hear a vehicle
coming and the vehicle is traveling at 50 miles per hour it's a lot different than if it is traveling 30 miles
per hour. He noted Ms. Sisneros has a child with autism and the child gets distracted. It's easier for her to
go and get the child if vehicles are traveling slower. He stated the issue for him is safety. He then stated
they are not trying to stop the thoroughfare street, which is what he thinks it is. He commented there is a
four -way stop further east a few blocks on Yellowstone Trail where it turns into Academy Avenue in the
City of Excelsior. That area is also a bus stop as is the area near where he lives. He questioned why there
is a four -way stop at one intersection and not at a similar intersection.
CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
October 10, 2011
Page 8 of 12
Mayor Lizee asked if it's the neighborhood's wish to have a four -way stop sign installed at the
intersection. She explained the traffic study indicates it doesn't satisfy the criteria for need. She noted the
speed buggy can track vehicle speeds even when the speed is not illuminated. She stated speeds are
difficult to judge when a person is standing in their front yard. She then stated in lots of traffic studies
done in City neighborhoods it became evident that it's the local residents who are the speeders because
they know the neighborhood and roads well.
Councilmember Hotvet thanked Mr. Haskins for bringing this up, noting the main concern in the
community is safety. She commented that she has two children and she lives along a drag racing track on
Strawberry Lane. She stated she wants Council to discuss this more. She then stated that it's extremely
important to her to try and address a group of residents' concerns. She went on to state she thought the
residents had just cause to come before Council with their request. Just because the traffic study data says
a stop sign isn't warranted she wants Council to discuss other options.
Councilmember Zerby stated stop signs can be obeyed or not ob

Councilmember Siakel stated this speaks to the need for a trail or something to improve pedestrian safety
along that corridor. She then stated the City has turned similar requests down in the past. The City has
established a process for determining when a sign is deemed to be appropriate and this request doesn't
comply with the City's policy. She expressed her discomfort with approving this request after the City has
denied similar requests. She went on to state she likes the idea of doing something to try and slow vehicle
speeds down, or to meet the residents' needs for children with special needs.
Mr. Haskins agreed with Councilmember Hotvet's description of traffic traveling freakishly fast on
Yellowstone Trail. He stated from his and his neighbors perspectives vehicles travel much faster than 29
miles per hours.
Councilmember Siakel stated drivers should have mutual respect for one another when driving throughout
the City neighborhoods. She then stated she like Councilmember Zerby's idea of putting something in or
near the intersection that will slow traffic down.
Director Brown stated Staff can look into traffic calming solutions to slow traffic down. He then stated he
supports the recommendation to deny the request. He noted the warrants are State warrants. The City can
override them but the City would carry the liability that goes along with that decision. He explained years
ago the City agreed to a request to install a stop sign. It was removed later on because drivers frequently
chose to not stop at it. He stated there is a stop sign in the CUB Foods parking lot at least every 50 feet. If
the signs are not respected people roll past them. He then stated other signs such as hearing impaired
signs may be more effective at slowing traffic down. The City would have to solicit neighborhood
feedback before considering that.
CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING MINUTES
October 10, 2011
Page 9 of 12
Councilmember Woodruff stated when he originally received this request he thought the issue was the
sight line which Engineer Landim has explained is not an issue. Ms. Sisneros doesn't share Landini's
perspective. It does sound like speed is an issue. He commented that he doesn't know how many times he
has sat at the intersection north bound on Lake Linden Drive at Yellowstone Trail and watched drivers
roll past that stop sign. He stated he thought he heard someone say there is an issue with people being
able to cross Yellowstone Trail at Glencoe Road. He suggested consideration be given to stripping the
crosswalk and installing a sign saying you must stop for pedestrians in the crosswalk.
Steve Haskins, 5455 Timber Lane stated he is Scott Haskins' father and therefore spends a fair amount of
time in that neighborhood. He noted in the sight line photographs displayed earlier there is no foliage
because of the time of year they were taken in. When foliage is out it's difficult to see vehicles until you
are half way out into the intersection. He also noted he has almost been hit by another vehicle a number of
times when trying to back out of his son's driveway because of foliage. He suggested Staff check out the
sight lines before the foliage comes down.
Councilmember Woodruff stated a year ago he was told there was

Scott Haskins stated almost all of his neighbors want 'a stop sign installed. He expressed he thought they
would be open to additional ideas as well. He stated he would not have a problem with hearing impaired
related signs. He noted the area has a lot of single family homes in it so there will always be a safety issue
for children because of vehicle traffic.
Councilmember Zerby stated he understood Council to express interest in pursuing alternatives. He noted
that he doesn't think a stop sign will solve the issue. He stated there is a need to modernize Yellowstone
Trail. It has been a thoroughfare since it had yellow painted rock that people followed out to Yellowstone
Park. It has been an expressway for many years. It's time to bring it into compliance with what its use is
today.
Director Brown suggested having the professional traffic engineer with WSB & Associates come before
Council to provide it with his recommendation and to evaluate the sight lines at the intersection. There
was Council consensus to have that done.

Administrator Heck stated Joe Shneider, President of the Christmas Lake Homeowners Association
(HOA), left him a message telling him that the gate fixture has been installed at the Christmas Lake boat
launch but the physical arms have not been installed. He then stated he has been reading comments posted
on the website www.ldofishing.com There is a discussion forum about the controlled access gate at the
launch. There has been some discussion about people potentially wanting to intentionally infest Christmas
Lake with zebra mussels. He noted there is a lot of misinformation about the Christmas Lake pilot
program for controlling the infestation of aquatic invasive species in the Lake. He suggested the City do
what it can to make sure true information is put out there. He went on to state that Director Nielsen,
Councilmember Hotvet, Julie Moore and he have identified the items the City has to do as part of the
GreenSteps program it's participating in. The group developed a work program for that and assigned
responsibilities for tasks identified. He noted he will have a more thorough report for Council during
Council's next meeting.

the LMCD has been a participant in the three -bay milfoil chemical treatment pilot program. In 2011 two
additional bays were treated. Those five bays have not been harvested as much as in the past. She stated
she doesn't think the harvesting program should be stopped totally. She questioned how many harvesters
are actually needed. She stated she does not think the current metrics of acreage and tonnage give an
accurate assessment of the effectiveness of the program.

Siakel then stated she supports having a comprehensive aquatic invasive species (AIS) management plan
developed before a decision is made about purchasing the replacement harvester. She reviewed requests
she made to the LMCD Board. She asked that the metrics used to assess the effectiveness of the
harvesting program be reevaluated. She recommended a comprehensive AIS management plan be
developed. She suggested the LMCD evaluate the option of contracting for harvesting services. Because
of the positive results from the chemical treatment she asked how much of the Lake needs to be harvested
for navigation reasons. She questioned what the critical navigation points are in the Lake.
Siakel asked Council to give her some direction. She stated she can not support purchasing another
harvester until a comprehensive AIS management plan has been developed.. She recommended the
harvesting program be reevaluated, noting that has not been done since the program was started.

Resolution Electing To Not Waive Statutory Tort Limits For Liability Insurance
Meeting Date:
October 24, 2011
Prepared by:
Bruce DeJong
Reviewed by:
Brian Heck
Attachment: Resolution
Policy Consideration:
Should the City waive the statutory tort limits, waive the limits and purchase excess liability coverage, or
waive the limits and not purchase excess liability coverage.
Background:
The City Council is required to pass a resolution indicating if they wish to waive or not waive the
monetary limits on municipal tort liability insurance established by Minnesota Statute 466.04. On
January 1, 2008 the statutory liability limits increased from $300,000 to $400,000 per claimant and from
$1,000,000 to $1,200,000 per occurrence.
If the city does not waive the statutory tort limits, an individual claimant would be able to
recover no more than $400,000 on any claim to which the statutory tort limits apply. The total
which all claimants would be able to recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort
limits apply would be limited to $1,200,000. These statutory tort limits would apply regardless
of whether or not the city purchases the optional excess liability coverage.
If the city waives the statutory tort limits and does not purchase excess liability coverage, a
single claimant could potentially recover up to $1,200,000 on a single occurrence. The total
which all claimants would be able to recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory tort
limits apply would also be limited to $1,200,000, regardless of the number of claimants.
If the city waives the statutory tort limits and purchases excess liability coverage, a single
claimant could potentially recover an amount up to the limit of the coverage purchased. The
total which all claimants would be able to recover for a single occurrence to which the statutory
tort limits apply would also be limited to the amount of coverage purchased, regardless of the
number of claimants.
Financial or Budget Considerations
Waiver of the monetary limits will increase the likelihood of larger payouts which will increase insurance
costs.
Mission Statement: The City of Shorewood is committed to providing residents quality public services, a
healthy environment, a variety of attractive amenities, a sustainable tax base, and sound financial
management through effective, efficient, and visionary leadership.
Options:
The City Council may choose to:
1. Accept the staff recommendation and not waive the limits as shown on the attached resolution.
2. Waive the statutory limits and do not purchase excess liability insurance coverage.
3. Waive the statutory limits and purchase excess liability insurance coverage.
Recommendation / Action Requested:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the resolution as submitted by staff.
Next Steps and Timelines:
Staff is proceeding with the regular insurance renewal process for the November 1 renewal date.
Connection to Vision / Mission:
This process contributes to sound financial management through proper insurance coverage.

Title / Subject: Organics Collection Pilot and Grant
Meeting Date: Monday, October 24, 2011
Prepared by: Brian Heck, City Administrator
Reviewed by: Jean Panchyshyn, Deputy City Clerk
Attachments: Resolution Accepting the Grant
Policy Consideration: Should the Council Accept the Grant and Authorize Staff to work with Hennepin
County to initiate the Pilot Project?
Background:
Earlier this year, the council authorized staff to prepare and apply for a grant to begin a pilot project for
the collection of organic material. Staff prepared and submitted the grant. Hennepin County informed
staff a couple of weeks ago that we received the grant award. Staff then worked with the county to
complete the necessary paperwork.
Before the Council this evening is a resolution formally accepting the grant for the project and
committing to moving forward with the pilot project.
The goal of the project is to determine the desire for such a program and if the city should work this
collection option in to an overall solid waste management system. Staff will also track the amount of
material collected to ensure credit toward our waste reduction goals.
Financial or Budget Considerations: The grant will cover part of the cost for the collection and disposal
of the organic material. The participating residents through direct billing by the selected vendor will pick
up the balance of the cost.
Options:
1) Adopt the resolution accepting the grant
2) Do not adopt the resolution accepting the grant
Recommendation / Action Requested: Staff recommends adoption of the resolution.
Next Steps and Timelines: Staff will commence working with Hennepin county November 1, 2011 to get
the program going.
Connection to Vision / Mission: This item ties to providing residents quality public services and a
healthy environment.

Title / Subject: Authorize the Expenditure of Funds, Public Works, Dump Truck and Plow Equipment
Meeting Date: October 24, 2011
Prepared by: Larry Brown

Attachments: CIP Excerpts, Quote
Background / Previous Action
The current Capital Improvement Program (2011 CIP) includes consideration of the purchase
for replacement of one 1988 Ford L8000 single axle dump truck (aka Unit 33) and components.
Attachment 1 is an excerpt taken from the CIP current.
It is noted that this expenditure is noted both in the current CIP, and the proposed CIP for 2012,
yet to be adopted. Staff has been able to extend the life of this vehicle beyond what has been
programmed. Having stated that, this twenty three year old truck has served the city well, and
has reached its practical service life, as it is deteriorating fast.
The purchase of a dump truck, and all of the components, is one of the more complicated
purchases for any city. Since one manufacturer does not manufacture all of the components,
the total finished product is made via several contracts or purchases. Therefore, this agenda
item is seeking authorization for the expenditure for the total vehicle and associated
components. They areas follows:
• Cab and Chassis (net trade in or sale of vehicle)
• Truck Components including dump box, hydraulics, plow, wing plow, sander, and DOT
safety lighting systems
• Radio
Minnesota State Statute allows municipalities to take advantage of the state and county
bidding process that are of record, if the municipality is a member of the Cooperative
Purchasing Venture (CPV). The City of Shorewood is a CPV member, and is allowed to take
advantage of the discounts that the state and county agencies receive due to the volume
discounts.
Mission Statement: The City of Shorewood is committed to providing residents quality public services, a

management through effective, efficient, and visionary leadership. Page 1
Cab and Chassis
Staff has reviewed the State Contract pricing that was recently awarded by the state for both
the cab and chassis and the box and hydraulics portions of the contracts. In discussing the
State Contract pricing with the truck dealers, it was discovered that another vendor has opted
to compete against the State Contract. This is very rare, as the State and other local agencies
are banking on volume pricing that is very rarely lower than other dealers. Having stated that,
staff was able to obtain the two quotes for the truck sought. These are listed in Table 1 below.
Vendor

Amount
River States Freightliner
Freightliner 106V Single Axle

Truck Components
Table 1
As mentioned above, the "truck components" include the remainder of the actual vehicle that
consists of the hydraulic systems, dump box, plow and hitch system, wing plow and DOT safety
lighting systems. The state contract vendor for these items is Crysteel Truck Equipment.
Attachment 4 is the state contract for these items. The subtotal for the truck components is
$64,981.49.
Radio
Staff has obtained a quote for one mobile radio and antenna system for an amount of $510.00.
Total Vehicle Cost

Table 2
Financial or Budget Considerations:
As noted, the current CIP has $142,000. This amount budgeted accounts for a salvage value for
trade in, which has not been obtained or accounted for here. Staff has review the past trade in
values given by dealers, and believes that a better return may be obtained by auction or on
lines sales. Staff's hope is to obtain $10- $12,000 for unit 33. This would bring this vehicle close
to what was budgeted for in the 2011 CIP, and in line with what is to be considered in the 2012
CIP, if ultimately approved by the City Council.
Therefore, as part of this approval, staff would like to also seek approval for the sale of unit 33,
once the new truck has been received, either by trade in to the dealer, auction, or on line sale.
Staff will weigh out the current pricing indicators and proceed with the sale of the vehicle.
Options
1. Approve the expenditure of funds from the Equipment Replacement Fund in the
amount of $156,192.93, and authorize staff to proceed with the sale of the unit 33.
2. Take no action
Staff Recommendation
Staff recommends that the City Council approve a motion for the expenditure of funds
from the Equipment Replacement Fund in the amount of $ 156,192.93 and authorize
staff to proceed with the state contracts and quotes provided with this document.

City of Shorewood Council Meeting Item Regular Meeting
Title / Subject: Energy Audit of Public Facilities
Meeting Date: Monday, October 24, 2011
Prepared by: Brian Heck, City Administrator
Reviewed by: Julie Moore, Communications /Solid Waste Coordinator
Attachments: None
Policy Consideration: Should the city conduct energy audits on our public facilities?
Background:
In June of this year, the council adopted a resolution to participate in the state's GreenStep Cities
program administered by the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. As part of this program, there are
several best practices the city is to work toward achieving and under each best practice are several
specific action items to complete in order to satisfy the best practice.
One of the required action items is to conduct an energy audit of public facilities. Staff contacted Xcel
Energy about conducting an audit. The cost is $200.00 per building. Xcel will perform the audit and
provide a report of recommendations of improvements to consider that will result in lower energy
consumption.
Having the audits completed satisfies one part of a required best practice under the GreenStep program
and will provide staff and council with necessary information regarding recommended improvements
and estimated costs so the improvements can be worked into building maintenance schedules and
properly budgeted.
Staff identified the City Hall, Public Works garage, and Community Center as buildings for the audits.
Financial or Budget Considerations: The audit cost is $600.00 and the Public Facilities budget would
cover the expense. Additional funds may be needed to complete identified improvements.
Options:
1) Approve the expenditure for the energy audit
2) Do not approve moving forward with the energy audit.
Recommendation / Action Requested: Staff recommends moving forward with the energy audit
process.
Next Steps and Timelines: Staff will contact the company and coordinate the timing for the energy
audit and present the council with the findings and preliminary plan of action.
Connection to Vision / Mission: This item ties to providing a health environment and sound financial
management.
Mission Statement: The City of Shorewood is committed to providing residents quality public services, a
healthy environment, a variety of attractive amenities, a sustainable tax base, and sound financial
management through effective, efficient, and visionary leadership. Page 1

City of Shorewood Council Me Item Regular Meeting
Title / Subject: Danser— Appeal for Extension of Deadline to Correct Rental Housing Violation
Meeting Date: 24 October 2011
Prepared by: Brad Nielsen
Reviewed by:
Attachments: Appellant's Letter, dated 9 October 2011
Policy Consideration: Should Eric Danser be granted additional time to comply with an order to
discontinue an illegal property rental?
Background: When our office became aware that Mr. Eric Danser has been renting out an unlawful
rental unit on his property at 21640 Lilac Lane, he was sent a notice directing him to correct the
violation by 14 October or face an administrative enforcement action. Mr. Danser, in his letter, has
asked for additional time to comply in order for his current renter to find alternative housing.
Financial or Budget Considerations: Staff time associated with inspection and enforcement of rental
housing and zoning regulations.
Options: Grant additional time as requested, or demand immediate compliance.
Recommendation / Action Requested: Based on the idea that we are out to seek compliance versus
punishment, staff recommends that Mr. Danser be given until 30 November to discontinue the rental of
the illegal unit. Since the renter may be in the unit until then, we recommend that Mr. Danser be given
an additional 1S days to remove the kitchen, including appliances, sink and cabinetry from the space
above his garage. Failure to comply with either deadline should result in an administrative penalty.
Next Steps and Timelines: See suggested deadlines above.
Connection to Vision / Mission: Code enforcement contributes to a healthy environment and
sustainable tax base.
Mission Statement: The City of Shorewood is committed to providing residents quality public services, a
healthy environment, a variety of attractive amenities, a sustainable tax base, and sound financial

Re: Alleged Zoning Violation Notice from Mr. Nielsen dated SepY 15, 2011 . concerning
rental of space above my garage at 21640 Lilac Ln., Shorewood, MN 55331.
Dear Mr. Nielsen and City Council Members,
I have been renting living quarters located above my garage to a woman for the last few months. I met
with Mr. Nielsen on the afternoon of Oct. 6 and learned that, since the space includes a small kitchen
area, renting this space out to a non - family member is a zoning violation in the City of Shorewood. In
order to achieve confonnity with city zoning requirements, the kitchen area must be removed. I agreed
to remove the kitchen area. I said that I would need to give the present renter a 30 -day notice to move
out of the rental space, unless she agreed to live there with no cooking facilities. After speaking with
her about the changes that must take place, she gave it serious thought for the last few days. This
Sunday afternoon she told me she no longer wants to live there. She is understandably upset, and when
I gave her the 30 -day notice to vacate, she claimed that she actually has until the 30"' of November to
vacate, saying that a Minnesota rental rule would back her up.
I don't know exactly what to do in this situation, except to appeal to you for an extension of time until
November 30 of this year to let her find another place to move into. At that time I will remove the
cooking facilities from the upstairs of my garage. If she finds a place sooner than this date I will keep
Mr. Nielsen informed of the situation. If you have further questions my phone number is 952 -474-

B. Minnehaha Watershed District
MCWD — Minnehaha Creek Watershed District Planner James Wisker, accompanied by
Education Manager Leslie Yetka, gave an extensive overview of the departments and mission of
the MCWD.
Governed by appointed officials and guided by its own Comprehensive Plan and the State
Agency, Board of Water & Soil Resources, the MCWD serves over 29 communities, the upper
watershed of Minnehaha Creek is fed by the dam at Gray's Bay which, in essence, all drain to one
point, the Mississippi River.
The Mission of the MCWD is broken down into 7 areas:
1) Land Conservation & Restoration
easements to protect water quality
2) Education & Communication to K- l
3) Hydrodata — water quality monitorin,
4) Regulatory — rules regarding erosion
with willing donors to create conservation
olicy makers
plains, stormwater, and
development
5) Grants — opportunities for partnerships
6) Planning — guides everything
7) Projects /Operations & Maintenance
`grading' system used by the MCWD to rate the bays on Lake
Wiskers explained that the MCWD uses a standard of measure for phosphorous using many
underlying metrics to measure clarity. While it is a detailed, but limited tool, he said there are
many intricacies to the process.
Wiskers gave several examples of capital projects and partnerships, pointing out that their 10 year
comprehensive plan can be changed to meet the needs of various projects.
The Urban Creek Corridor Initiative ; because wetlands slow down the water flow and seepage, a
creek, once straightened for development, can be redirected to its former `natural wavy' state to
slow flow.
Wiskers stated that, oftentimes, cities or people come to the MCWD with big ideas to partner
with them, or even smaller ideas in some cases for grants. For instance, the low impact
development grant program is available for shoreline /streambank restoration for Freeman Park

may be one avenue that the city could pursue. In the case of homeowners, stormwater BMP's
can be tapped for small scale individual improvements.
Low impact development projects have been done in both Wayzata and Excelsior. Wiskers urged
the Commission to come to the MCWD if they want cost effective projects that can make a big
difference in the watershed. He suggested the City provide the MCWD with a `vision' to help
determine how the creek runs thru the park at Freeman, determine the drainage area, map out the
topography, and figure out whether there is a water quality problem or streambank project.
Every City is looking for a project, Wiskers stated that the MCWD will provide you all the data it
has, which in turn will give your staff ammunition to put together a proposal for MCWD
consideration and evaluation — he commented that the `squeaky wheel gets the grease'. He
suggested the Commission give consideration to the items Anderson had mentioned, the creek,
Freeman Park parking lot using rain gardens, permeable pavers /porous pavers or concrete, similar
to Mound. Once the city has a proposal, the MCWD will sit down to look at your CIP, as well as
its own, and evaluate how it could partner.
Chair Quinlan suggested the Commission meet with the MCWD regarding both the Freeman and
Badger Parking lots.
Wiskers pointed out that, whenever a city

the Commission to discuss.
C. Parks Foundation — Bill Keeler
Bill Keeler, of the Park Foundation, gave a historical perspective on the origination of the
Shorewood Park Commission, acquisition of park land, and Park foundation history. He shared a
page from the first park meeting minutes of 1975 and mentioned the numerous individuals who
laid out the original plans for the City of Shorewood.
Keeler pointed out that the Foundation needs a goal in order to raise money. Although a small
group of individuals, the foundation members are educating the public about the organization and
encouraging folks to donate, deed estates, etc to their 501c3 organization as a tax incentive. He
stated that, if the Park Commission comes to them with a project, the Foundation will fundraiser
for it, as they've done for Arctic Fever and Girabaldi Plaza.

Anderson pointed out that the Park Commission would be evaluating the 2012 Work Program at
their next meeting, as well as, the long term CIP for consideration.
Chair Quinlan asked if staff had pulled together estimates for the TKDA plans at Badger Park.
Anderson stated that they had not done so in fact, she reminded the Commission that Badger
Park planning was slated for review during 2012, that this would take time, and that staff would
appreciate a list of priorities to begin the extensive compilation of the various elements of the
TKDA plans.
Chair Quinlan stated that the Commission directed staff to begin compiling estimates for all of the
TKDA design elements at their previous meeting. Once presented, he noted that the Commission
would then identify their priorities based on the estimates.
Heck encouraged the Commission to consider their priorities in anticipation of the long term CIP.
Zerby asked about vandalism to a sign at Freeman Park, staff was unaware of any vandalism but
would follow -up.
Robb asked about the exposed `conduit' leading from Badger Park warming house to the ground.
Anderson stated that Public Works staff and building Inspector Pazandak were working on those
details.

E. Quarterly Expenditure Report
DeJong presented the Quarterly Expenditure Report for comment, explaining that the
Commission will need to consider what sort of annual infusion of funds from the Council would
be necessary going forward to accomplish park priorities. Although Grants are not addressed in
the long term CIP, DeJong cautioned assuming these to be accessible.
Robb stated that there are some things that the Commission just simply can't accomplish without
the influx of grant dollars, a catch 22. These items are priorities, but if the funds partners are not
available they cannot be done.
Heck stated that the key take away from the Finance items is that a funding disparity exists and
becomes obvious within a few years. The Park Commission will need to really analyze their
priorities. He implored them to work on or even move out, some of the priorities so that staff can
go after the relevant grants. Once the key really important priorities are identified, then staff, the
Commission and Council can leverage funds to get these dollar numbers and complete the
projects.
Chair Quinlan reiterated that he would like to proceed with the TKDA vision, and wants staff to
pull together the best estimates they can so that the Commission can take these numbers to re-
prioritize at that point.
Anderson pointed out that partnerships for grants exist, such as USTA and the Hennepin County
Sport Grant, but the deadlines for these vary, and at this point would be next fall.
Heck encouraged the Commission to commit to a project and let staff contact them like USTA.
Edmondson stated that he felt the Commission had been working really hard over the past few
years to prioritize the CIP.
F. Grant
Anderson shared the list of all grants being submitted for within the City, not just for Parks.
Noting that the Organic Waste Pilot Program grant was just awarded to the City in the amount of
$16,500 for a residential program.

RE: McDonald, Michael —Minor Subdivision/Combination
FILE NO. 405(11.11)
BACKGROUND
Mr. Michael McDonald owns the property at 4695 Lagoon Drive (see Site Location map —
Exhibit A, attached). Some time ago he discovered that the legal description of his property does
not include the southwesterly 30 feet of the yard that he has maintained over the years (see
Exhibit B, attached). The property in question is part of a very odd parcel of property that is
owned by a consortium of land owners on Enchanted Drive (approximately five families). This
parcel (also shown on Exhibit A) consists of land that borders the lagoon adjoining Mr.
McDonald's property and a small island in the middle of the lagoon. Mr. McDonald has
arranged to purchase the subject 30 feet for combination with his property.
All of the property in question is located in the R -1 C /S, Single - Family Residential /Shoreland
zoning district. Mr. McDonald's property contains 36,062 square feet of area. The portion of
land he proposes to buy (2505 square feet) would increase the area to 38,567 square feet. The
property owned by the consortium of families is not buildable.
ANALYSIS/RECOMMENDATION
The proposed subdivision /combination (lot line rearrangement) is a good solution to a
Problematic title problem. The subject parcel does not relate physically to the consortium
property, and it makes sense for it to be combined with the McDonald property.

Re: McDonald Subdivision/Combination
28 September 2011
It is worth noting that Tom Geng, Planning Commission Chair, is one of the owners of the parcel
to be conveyed. He intends to recuse himself from voting on this matter.
The proposed division/combination does not create any new lot, and does not adversely affect the
buildability of either property (in fact, the McDonald property is enhanced), there is no
requirement, for park dedication fees or sewer access charges. Approval of the application is
recommended, subject to the division/combination being recorded within 30 days of the
Council's approval

Meeting Date: Monday, October 24, 2011
Prepared by: Brian Heck, City Administrator
Reviewed by: Jean Panchyshyn, Deputy Clerk; Tim Keane, City Attorney
Attachments: Ordinance Amending Chapter 308
Policy Consideration: Should the Council amend the solicitation ordinance?
Background: Staff reviewed the city's licensing and permits ordinances and identified the ordinances the
council should consider amending. The city's solicitation ordinance was one staff identified. Staff
brought suggested amendments to the October 10 meeting. Council referred it back to staff for
additional revision.
Suggested amendments are as follows:
Section 308.01 we deleted "Hawkers" and inserted "solicitor" and "canvassers."
Section 308.02 we added "Community Centers" and "schools" to the garage sale definition.
Section 308.04 Subdivision 3(a)(d)(g) "Community Centers" and "schools" were added as exempt from
obtaining a license under the garage sale exemption.
Section 308.04 we added subdivision 4 "Other" that exempts route delivery e.g. grocery stores, kids
selling for school activities or fund raisers, and the girl /boy scouts.
Section 308.05 subdivision 3 we changed "solicitation" to "canvassing."
Section 308.05 subdivision 4 we deleted "from outside the South Lake Minnetonka Public Safety
Department area" and inserted "background." Leaving the limitation of the SLMPD area opens the door
for anyone or any organization in the four city area to canvas without obtaining a license or undergoing
a background review.
Section 308.06 Subdivision 2(g) we are requiring the applicant to submit a photograph or, if they do not
have one, we will take their photo.
Section 308.08 we deleted "Annual" and inserted "...length of time noted on the application, not to
exceed the..." We deleted the last sentence of this section pertaining to refunding 50% of the license
fee.
Section 308.11 Subdivision 6, we amended the hours of operation from 9:00 a.m. — 9:00 p.m. to 9:00
a.m. — 8:00 p.m.
The license fee remains $50.00 unless exempted from the fee as in the case of canvasers.

1. Approve amendments to Chapter 308 as presented;
2. Suggest additional amendments and approve Chapter 308;

MEETING TYPE
City of Shorewood Council Meeting Item Regular Meeting
Title / Subject: Draft Ordinance on Domestic Partnership Registry
Meeting Date: Monday, October 24, 2011
Prepared by: Brian Heck, City Administrator
Reviewed by: Jean Panchyshyn, Deputy City Clerk; Tim Keane, City Attorney
Attachments: Draft Ordinance
Policy Consideration: Should the City of Shorewood consider an ordinance providing a domestic
partner registry?
Background: The City Council directed staff to develop a draft ordinance creating a Domestic Partner
Registry at the October 10, 2011 meeting.
Staff reviewed draft ordinances from Maplewood, Red Wing, and Hopkins as well as adopted ordinances
from Edina, Golden Valley, and St. Louis Park. Staff also contacted the League of Minnesota Cities to see
if a model ordinance on the issue existed. Staff did not see many differences in the ordinances and
assembled the attached draft from the ordinances reviewed.
The ordinance provides for committed couples, regardless of gender mix, to register their relationship
and receive a document of registration including the documentation necessary to register, what the
registration provides and does not provide, the process to amend the registration, and a method of
terminating the registration.
Staff suggests a reasonable fee to apply, amend, terminate the registration, and a fee to obtain
additional certified copies of the registration document. Staff proposes the fee to apply, amend, or
terminate the registration be $35.00 and the fee to obtain additional certified copies at $2.00. The fee
varies from $25.00 to $50.00.
Recommendation: staff recommends Council review the draft and take any public input and direct staff
to bring back the ordinance for formal adoption at the November 14 meeting.
Next Steps and Timelines: Staff will prepare the ordinance for formal adoption based on comments and
suggestions by Council.
Connection to Vision / Mission:
Mission Statement: The City of Shorewood is committed to providing residents quality public services, a
healthy environment, a variety of attractive amenities, a sustainable tax base, and sound financial
management through effective, efficient, and visionary leadership. Page 1

Earlier this week, Shoreview became the lucky thirteenth Minnesota city to approve an ordinance
permitting domestic partners, whether same -sex or different -sex, to register for a fee and receive a
document certifying their registration. One other city may vote on an ordinance later in September,
and yet another may do so by the end of the year, potentially bringing the total to fifteen.
But given the fact that the legal impact of a municipal domestic - partner registry is very limited in
comparison to the impact of a State -level law conferring legal status on same -sex couples, some
people reasonably ask: who cares about these local ordinances?
The conversations that have played out in these thirteen cities are local echoes of a much larger
conversation about how, or indeed whether, to incorporate same -sex couples into the fabric of
society. This is a debate that is underway in cities, states, and nations around the world, and
increasingly, the outcome is movement in the direction of full inclusion, and full legal equality.
While some states, for example New Jersey, Wisconsin, or Nevada, opt for legal statuses that fall
short of full equality— represented by marriage —the direction of change is absolutely unmistakable.
We know that in Minnesota, the 2011 Legislature made a high priority of placing a proposed
constitutional amendment on the 2012 ballot to define marriage as 'one man, one woman " —a higher
priority than even keeping the State operating by passing a budget that had a chance of enactment.
In the next fourteen months or so, we will engage our friends, family, and neighbors in an
unprecedented conversation about same -sex couples and LGBT people in general. And on
November 6, 2012, when people go to voting booths statewide and are asked to vote on whether or
not their LGBT neighbors are full citizens, hundreds of thousands, if not more than a million,
Minnesotans will stand by us and reject this profoundly misguided effort.
On November 7, 2012, we will open our newspapers or browsers to see whether enough
Minnesotans stood with us to succeed. But whatever the outcome of that vote (and the many other
important decisions we will make that day), know this: the conversation about how to legally
recognize same -sex couples will continue. The only difference the vote will make is to determine
whether marriage equality is achievable in the relative short term, or not.
If the amendment succeeds, marriage is off the table —for the time being —and the discussion in
2013 will move toward the creation of some other status, akin to what exists in several other states
and countries, often known as either "civil unions" or "domestic partnerships." And if the amendment
fails, which many polls suggest is quite possible, then the marriage conversation simply continues.
When that discussion picks up again in 2013, at least thirteen communities throughout the state —
big -city, suburban, and greater- Minnesota communities, homes to over a million Minnesotans —will
have already blazed the trail forward. They will have shown, in whatever limited way is available to
them, that treating same- and different -sex couples equally under the law is not only possible, but
desirable.
Already, civic leaders, business people, and clergy have spoken out about how supporting families
strengthens communities, and supported these local ordinances as small but useful steps in that
direction. Change at the State level often is preceded by change at the local level; these cities will
lead the state forward toward full equality.
The future is unfolding, one community at a time.
What are municipal domestic- partner registration ordinances?
In 1991, the City of Minneapolis created Minnesota's first municipal domestic -
partner registration ordinance. Since then, other cities have followed suit: Duluth
(2009), St. Paul (2009), Edina (2010), and Rochester (2010). These ordinances
allow a couple, whether same -sex or different -sex, to register as domestic
partners for a nominal fee (usually $20 -$25) and receive a certificate that verifies
their registration.
Municipal domestic- partner registrations serve purposes beyond
symbolism.
Undeniably, under Minnesota law, local governments are very restricted In terms
of the rights or privileges they could attach to a domestic- partner registration. In
particular, local governments in Minnesota may not offer their employees'
domestic partners health coverage akin to that provided to employees' spouses.
(Other employment benefits, e.g., bereavement leave, may be offered.) A
registration ordinance provides unmarried couples who attest that they satisfy the
City's definition of a domestic partnership" the ability to secure government
documentation that a relationship exists. That documentation function
strengthens couples' ability to secure benefits or protections from businesses,
hospitals, or other entities which can rely on a registration certificate for their
paperwork needs.
Municipal domestic - partner registration ordinances impose no costs on
local businesses.
None of the domestic- partner ordinances passed in Minnesota requires any
private business or other entity to pay to provide financial benefits of any kind to
couples who register. Much of the conversation about domestic partnerships
relates to health benefits; under Federal law, in most cases no city or state can
require that private employers provide any particular health benefits to their
employees. A domestic - partner registration ordinance, however, can make it
easier for those businesses who would like to provide these or other benefits but
who don want to create their own, internal registration processes.
Passing a municipal domestic- partner registration ordinance imposes
no costs on a City itself.
The cost of preparing forms for couples to use for registration is more than offset
by the registration fee couples are charged. Passing a domestic - partner
registration ordinance does not require a City to provide any particular benefits to
its employees' domestic partners, though naturally a City may choose to do so,
other than dependent health coverage.
Municipal domestic - partner registration ordinances can help attract
businesses and residents.
There is no evidence that in twenty years' experience, businesses or residents
have left, or declined to move to, Minneapolis due to its domestic - partner
registration ordinance. In OutFront Minnesota's experience, local leaders
express support for such ordinances because they believe they enhance their
city's reputation as welcoming to all families and communities, and that this is
conducive to welcoming new businesses and residents.
Municipal domestic - partner registries do not affect places of worship.
A municipal domestic- partner registration ordinance is entirely a function of civil
government and has no effect on places of worship. Should a place of worship
choose to conduct a ceremony for domestic partners, they are of course free and
welcome to do so, but no government entity may require that a place of worship
recognize or act on a domestic - partner registration.
Municipal domestic - partner registries do not violate state law.
While Minnesota law currently restricts marriage to different -sex couples, state
law also allows local governments to register domestic partners. Each of the
domestic- partner registration ordinances in Minnesota provides for recognition of
registrations from other cities, as well as domestic partnerships, civil unions, and
even marriages from other jurisdictions — as municipal domestic partnerships,
and nothing more. Domestic - partnership registration ordinances do not create or
limit rights or obligations in such areas as inheritance, adoption, child custody,
separation, or related areas governed solely by State law.
ORDINANCE NUMBER XXX -2011
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE SHOREWOOD CITY CODE

xxx.01 Purpose
The City of Shorewood authorizes and establishes a voluntary program for the registration of domestic

certificates may be used as evidence of the existence or termination of a domestic partnership.
XXX.04 Amendments. The city clerk will accept amendments for filing from persons who have domestic
partnership registrations on file with the city, except for amendments that change the identity of the
partners, unless said amendment is accompanied by documentation from the district court approving a

U2 MEETING TYPE
City of Shorewood Council Meeting Item Regular Meeting
Title / Subject:
Carver County Fiber Ring
Meeting Date:
Monday, October 24, 2011
Prepared by:
Brian Heck, City Administrator
Reviewed by:
Bruce DeJong; Jean Panchyshyn
Attachments: Installation Quotes
Policy Consideration: Should the City continue to pursue connection to the Carver County Fiber Ring
Background: Staff began discussing the possibility of connecting City Hall, the SSCC, Public Works, and
potentially the Public Safety buildings to the Carver County Open Fiber Ring. The process involves laying
conduit and a 24 pair fiber cable to all the buildings and then to a splice point along Highway 7. The fiber
would then replace the city's T -1 at City Hall, the T -1 and cable modem at Public Works, the commercial
phone line and cable modem at the SSCC, and if public safety is included, their multiple T -1 lines.
The council directed staff to gather more information on costs for the installation and maintenance of
the system. Staff met with MP Nexlevel, a fiber installation company, and walked through each of the
buildings so MP could prepare installation quotes. Staff also met with the design consultant who works
with Carver County and the Minnetonka School District to discuss possible public /private partnerships
for private use.
The estimated cost to install a 24 pair cable to all four locations is $80,570.00. Splicing into the Carver
ring is an additional $1,800 for a total estimate of $82,370.
In looking at the quotes, staff thinks there might be a way to reduce the cost to run fiber from city hall
to the SSCC. The route identified runs along the creek and football field to the building. Staff feels there
might be a more direct route.
In talking with the design consultant about private use of the system, he indicated in most cases, we
would want to consider a 48 or 96 pair cable. Staff continues to work with the consultant and another
company on this possible arrangement.
The last thing we addressed was ongoing maintenance. Essentially the maintenance for the system is
conducting locates and repairs if the cable is cut. Thus, there is little maintenance cost if our staff can
perform locates. If the cable is cut, we use MP Nexlevel or some such company on a time and materials
basis to repair the cable.
Based on current costs, the city would see approximately $12,000 per year in current phone and
communications related charges. Based on this, our ROI is just over 8 years. However, this does not
include potential savings for being in the 511 building and that lowers the cost for connecting to a
backend provider and we do not have these estimates as of yet. We also don't know what, if any,
additional revenue the city could see from a public /private program. Finally, we don't know if the public

management through effective, efficient, and visionary leadership. Page 1
safety building is interested in connecting and if so, what the overall reduction in cost will be for the
elimination of their T -1 lines.
In looking at the possible advantages of moving forward, staff identified the following:
1) The connection speed would increase from 1.5mb to as much as 100mb.
2) The city would have a direct connect into the 511 building. Connecting at this location, which is
where almost all communications terminate, lowers the city's cost and opens up additional
cross connect options.
3) The Carver Ring provides additional redundancy in case of possible interruption through
connection to Scott County. Scott County is connected to McLeod County.
4) There is the potential for the city to migrate to different hosts for voice, data, web pages, and
internet.
5) As the need increases, the city can utilize more capacity without significant cost by lighting up
additional strands of fiber.
6) The Community Center becomes integrated with the city's phone and data system allowing for
staff to office from the center as well as better data integration and phone coverage.
7) There is the possibility to include the public safety facility on the network lowering the
communication costs related to telephone and data for police and fire.
8) Potential to enter into a public private partnership to bring access to fiber to Smithtown
Crossing or businesses in Excelsior.
Financial or Budget Considerations: The cost to install the fiber backbone and equipment to light up
strands is around $82,000. Staff estimates backend hosting services will be less than currently paid due
to facility location at the 511 building.
Recommendation / Action Requested: Staff is looking for additional direction from Council regarding
proceeding with the project including funding source.
Next Steps and Timelines: If the Council directs staff to continue to move forward on this project, staff
will include it in the 2012 CIP and work with the installer to build -out the identified segments of the
system.
Connection to Vision / Mission: This item connects to the city's mission of attractive amenities and
effective leadership.

From: Bruce DeJong, Finance Director
Re: September, 2011 Monthly Budget Report
The 2011 General Fund budget continues to look reasonably good. At 86.5% of non - property
tax revenues, we compare well to the previous three years. Actual revenues are about $45,000
lower than last year at this point. Overall expenditures are at 65% which is higher than last year
at this point and the three year average.
REVENUES
• We have received the first half property taxes collected through May 15 from Hennepin
County.
• License and permit revenues are up about $23,000 over last year. Staff believes this is a
sustainable increase in activity from the levels of the past couple of years which is
reflected in the 2012 budget.
• Intergovernmental revenues are typical for this point with the first half of the MSA funds
in from the state.
• Charges for services are running just under last year's level, but are on track to make
budget.
• Fines and forfeitures are lower than last year so this item may come in under budget for
the year.
• Miscellaneous revenue looks to be on track for the year. .
EXPENDITURES
• Council — looks slightly better than previous years' averages.
• General Government — looks high because of support services.
• Elections — should be well under budget based on salary allocations.
• Finance - over in both supplies and support services, but some expenses may be allocated
to other departments.
• Municipal Buildings — high because the LMCIT liability insurance costs were paid early
in the year. Materials and supplies cover copier and Laserfiche software maintenance,
but some Warner Connect charges were miscoded and need to be reclassified as support
and services which will bring materials and supplies back below budget.
• Police and Fire are tracking closely with previous years.
• Public Works - over because more wages have been coded to this department based on
actual time spent. As shown in the budget analysis this will not cause a major problem
over the course of the year.
• Snow and Ice - over because of all the snow received this winter. There is still a chance
that the overall budget will not be exceeded if snow fall this fall and early winter is
average or below.
• Sanitation and Waste Control — over because more weed spraying in the parks was
needed this year.
Please contact me or Mr. Heck if you have any questions.

MEMORANDUM
Date: October 24, 2011
To: Mayor Lizee
Council Members
From: Bruce DeJong, Finance Director
Re: September, 2011 Quarterly Investment Report
The City's cash reserves have been invested in both cash flow type of investments to meet
ongoing expenditure needs and longer -term securities with higher returns than money market
funds. It is important to remember our investment priorities in order of concern:
1. Safety — preservation of principal;
2. Liquidity — having funds available when needed to pay expenses;
3. Yield — earning market rates of return for the amount of principal risk we are willing to
accept.
With the investments that the City currently holds, and with our philosophy of holding
investments to maturity, we are exposed to minimal risk of principal loss. The only expected
change is when investments are marked to market and gains or losses are recognized at year end.
In order to decide what time frames should be targeted for various investments, a cash flow
projection has been prepared. Over the past three years, the city has only had three months
where cash flow is positive — June, July, and December. Those months are when we receive tax
settlements. The rest of the months, need about $500,000 on average to cover operating costs.
This means that the City should have a mix of callable and non - callable investments with both
short-term cash flow needs being met and longer maturities targeting major cash needs over the
investment horizon.
The current investment climate has not changed throughout the year unless to decline slightly.
We are still occasionally finding investments in the four year and under time frame that return
over 1.0 %. I am slowly finding investments to meet cash flow needs for the rest of the year in
our targeted months.
We have a significant amount of funds held in cash and money market while we keep looking for
investments with a reasonable yield. With wire transfer fees, it doesn't make sense to move
money frequently because the fees may be higher than the interest we can earn. This has brought
us to keep funds in money market funds at the brokers while we search for suitable investments.
Staff aims to invest these funds to increase the overall portfolio returns, while maintain
flexibility to cover ongoing expenditures as projected using a cash flow estimate.
Please contact me or Mr. Heck if you have any questions.
