MA TTERS FROM THE FLOOR Gene German, 5925 Eureka Road, stated he was before Council to ask for its support for public use of the SLMPD firing range. He noted he had spoken to the Mayor and others previously regarding this request. He stated there was an increasing demand for access to firing ranges as a result of more individuals obtaining permits to carry firearms. Mr. German stated he was Minnesota Department of Public Safety celiified firearms instructor. He explained there were only two spots available for him to use to conduct this firearms training- one in Robbinsdale and one in Burnsville. He stated not only would it be more convenient to have a local spot to teach, but it would utilize a public building built with taxpayer dollars. Mr. German went on to state using the SLMPD firing range for public uses could proVide an additional source of revenue for the SLMPD. Mr. German stated he was one of approximately 20 individuals the Metropolitan area that had been certified by the American Association of Certified Firearms InstruQtors. He estimated approximately 15,000 - 20,000 firearms permit holders resided in the Metropolitan area. In addition, approximately 1,000 individuals attended firearms training each month. Mr. German asked Council tqs,ltpport Mayor Love, who was thrCity's representative to the SLMPD Coordinating Committee,in. bringing this item forward to the SLMPD Coordinating Committee for review and consideration to approve his request. Mayor Love explained it was the SLMPD Coordinating Committee's current policy to rent the firing range to other law enforcement agencies, but not to individuals or organizations. He stated he would ask this item be placed on iln SLMPD Coordinating Committee agenda. He then asked the Councilmembers if they would like the topicto.be placed on a City Council Work Session agenda for discussion. In response to a question frOlTI. Councilmember Turgeon, Mayor Love stated the decision was the responsibility of the SLMPDCoordinating Committee. He then stated he was very respectful of the "will" of the Council, but noted only the Coordinating Committee could take a formal vote of action regarding this matter. He also stated issues may be identified during a Council Work Session that would be wOlih discussion. Councilmember Turgeon stated it was her understanding the Coordinating Committee had voted against allowing the SLMPD firing range to be used by individuals and organizations, and that she had requested a copy of the minutes of the Coordinating Committee meeting when the vote had taken place to provide her insight into the decision. It had been her understanding there had been a plan to open the firing range for public use. Mayor Love stated the Coordinating Committee, at the beginning of the building process, had discussed renting the firing range to the public, but had never agreed to it. He went on to the state the SLMPD building was not designed to suppOli public access to the firing range, nor had the City of Shorewood's zoning requirements been considered with regard to public use of the firing range. CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING June 12, 2006 Page 3 of 13 Councilmember Turgeon stated she had recollected there had been discussion in 200] of creating something like a "gun club". Therefore, she would prefer Council discuss this item at a City Council Work Session. In response to a question from Mayor Love, Administrator Dawson stated the item could be placed on a July] 0,2006, City Council Work Session agenda. Councilmember Callies questioned if it would be more expeditious for the Council to address it at a City Council Regular meeting, once the necessary background on this topic had been provided. Love stated the Work Session may be better suited for the Council to gain a finer understanding of the issues and concerns associated with the item. Callies supported the item being discussed at a City Council Work Session. 5. REPORTS AND PRESENT A TIONS A. Recognition of Service of Park Commissioner Todd Wagner On behalf of the Council and the residents of Shorewood, Mayor Love thanked former Park Commissioner Todd Wagner for his service as a Park Commissioner and provided him with a plaque of appreciation and recognition. Mr. Wagner thanked the Council and the City for the opportunity. He stated he had learned and great deal as a result of the experience, and he was hopeful he had made a contribution to the City. B. South Lake-Excelsior Chamber of Commerce request for funds for Lake Minnetonka 4th of July Celebration Linda Murrell, Executive Director of the South Lake -. Excelsior Chamber of Commerce, provided an overview of the activities plall1:\ecifor its 2006 Fourth of July celebration. The activities would start with the 30th annual 10k race arid >end with a fireworks display; and there were activities for various age groups scheduled throughout the day. She noted Robert Robinson would sing with the orchestra in the evenll1g. Ms. Murrell asked th~ City of Shorewood for itscpntinued support in funding the celebration. In response to a question from Councilmember Turgeon, Ms. Murrell stated Deephaven, Greenwood, and Excelsior had already committed to supporting the funding effort, and she was addressing the Tonka Bay City Council on June] 3,2006. She also confirmed the contributions from those three cities remained the same as in 2005. Callies moved, Lizee seconded, Approving the Budgeted Contribution Amount of $2,200 for Funding of the 2006 Fpqrtl1.of July Celebration. Councilmember Turgeon stated she would prefer the City contribute an amount equal to what the other cities had contributed. Ms. Murrell stated the amounts the other cities had contributed were relative to the population of the city. Counci Imember Lizee stated she would prefer to contribute the budgeted amount of $2,200. Councilmember Turgeon stated she had requested the 2005 contribution be given directed to South Lake Minnetonka Police Department for its services, and that council had not agreed to do so. CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING June 12,2006 Page 4 of 13 Motion passed 4/1, with Turgeon dissenting. Ms. Murrell explained there was a current fundraising campaign, called the Stars and Stripes. Mayor Love commented this was the last remaining Fourth of July celebration on Lake Minnetonka, and maintaining it required public contributions. C. 2005 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) by Steve McDonald, CPA, and Andrew Berg, CPA Administrator Dawson explained the City of Shorewood's 2005 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) had been reviewed by Steve McDonald of Abdo, Eick & Meyers, and Mr. McDonald would highlight the findings this evening. Mr. McDonald stated there was a "clean" Opll110n on the financial statements and there was one reportable condition identified during the audit. The condition related to segregation of duties handling money transactions: because of the limited size of the. office staff, the City had limited segregation of duties. He explained the reportable condition was not believed to be a material weakness. He commented if a third party were to be involved in some of those duties the condition would be eliminated. He noted there were no instances of non-compliance with Minnesota statutes. He then stated there had been no audit adjustments or corrections of the City's decisions; there had been no major accounting changes; and there had been a minor GASB Statement change that was implemented. Mr. McDonald provided a financial overview of the City's expenditures and revenues. He noted during 2005, the General Fund revenues had exceeded expenditures by $560,958 which resulted in an increased fund balance of slightly under $3.0 million, or 63% of 2006 budgeted expenditures. In addition, the Enterprise Funds (sewer, water, storm water management, recycling and liquor) generally performed positively. The Liquor Funds operating income was approximately $29,445, but the margins were minimal because of operaJirigexpense;;. With regard to tlw .Water FlInd,he explained it was important to maintain the reserve balance of approximat~ly$3.1111il1i()n because approximate $2.8 million in bonds outstanding. With regard to the Sewer Fund. balance, he explained because the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MqES) could impose additional surcharges it would be beneficial for the City to conduct a rate study to ensure. its rates would support the additional operating expenses while maintaining cash reserves. With regard to Debt Service Funds, he stated the 1993 Improvement and Refunding Bonds had been paid in full, and recommended Council approve a transfer of remaining funds in 2006 to close the fund. He noted the Waterford III Tax Increment Bonds had also been paid in full. He commented the City's debt per capita, which was under $1,000 per person, was relatively low compared to other cities his company audits. With regard to Capital Projects Funds, he explained the MSA Construction balance deficit would be eliminated by 2006 year-end; and the 2005 year-end Street Reconstruction Fund balance of approximately $2.2 million was a significant balance relative to the fund balances of the other capital projects. CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING June ]2,2006 Page 5 of]3 Mr. McDonald reviewed the Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement changes for 2006. He explained all cities were required to implement GASB Statements No. 43 and No. 45, and he noted it should be a relatively simple change for the City. He stated GASB Statement No. 44 would need to be implemented in 2007. Mr. McDonald congratulated the City on receiving the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting awarded by the Government Finance Officers Association for its CAFR for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2004. In response to a question from Councilmember Callies, Mr. McDonald explained General Fund reserves for working capital should be between 40 - 50%. He had experiences where cities whose reserves above that range would transfer some of the reserves to a permanent capital fund associated with a capital budget for s specific purpose. It was not recommended to spend down reserves. Administrator Dawson stated during the capital budgeting process Council could consider the transfer of General Fund reserves to the Capital Funds. Director Burton stated Staff was in the process of preparing a fund balance reserve policy. It would address tax reduction strategies and transfer of funds. With regard to the Water Fund, Councilmember Callies questiol1~d what the statement "the cash balance is significant as compared to operating expenses" in the report meant. Mr. McDonald stated it was relative to what the City planned to use the fund for over the next 4 - 5 years. For example, if the City had plans for significant projects the cash balance WOlild assist in buying down the cost of the bonds. Wellens moved, Callies seconded, Accepting the 20Q5 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report (CAFR) and Recommending theCAFR be sent to the State Auditor for review. Motion passed 5/0. Mayor Love thanked City Staff and Mr. McDonald for all efforts utilized in bringing this repOli to fruition. 6. PUBLIC HEARING A. 7:00 P.M...,.., Public Hearing on Proposed Improvements for Watermain Installation as part of(h~ Wedgewo()d Drive, Mallard Lane, Teal Circle Road Reclamation Project This item was discussed after ItemS.B. Mayor Love opened tl1epubIic;l1earing at 7:22 P.M., noting the procedures utilized in a public hearing. Administrator Dawson explained this improvement project was being followed under Minnesota Statute Chapter 429 because special assessment was one way Council wished to consider funding watermain installation improvements. The process of the public hearing provided the property owners the opportunity to provide Council with their perspectives on the improvement project prior to Council taking action on ordering the improvement project and determining what the scope of the project would be. Director Brown stated Kevin Kalewski, a project manager with WSB and Associates, was present this evening to review the three watermain improvement options under consideration as pari of the Wedgewood Drive, Mallard Lane, and Teal Circle road reclamation project. He explained Mr. Kalewski had assisted the City with numerous past projects. CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING June 12,2006 Page 6 of 13 Mr. Kalewski reviewed the three watermain improvement options under consideration. He noted the construction costs included a 10% contingency for construction costs, plus 30% of total construction cost for indirect costs (e.g. administrative costs, advertising costs, assessment, etc.) ONion 1: Option I consisted of extending City water throughout the entire road reclamation project corridor, on Wedgewood Drive, Mallard Lane, and Teal Circle. Nineteen of the 37 properties (approximately 51 %) adjacent to the project had expressed interest in connecting to City water. The estimated total project cost of $315,350 represented a cost of approximately $8,523 per property, based on 37 properties. He noted City Staff was recommending Option 1. Option 2: Option 2 consisted of extending City water to just east of Mallard Lane. Nineteen of the 29 properties adjacent to the project limits (approximately 66%) had expressed interest in connecting to City Water. The estimated total project cost of $234,640 represented a cost of approximately $8,091 per property, based on 29 properties. Option 3: Option 3 consisted of extending City water on a portion of Wedgewood Drive. Seven of the nine properties (approximately 78%) of the properties fronting on Wedgewood Drive, between Smithtown Road and the Hennepin County Regional Rail Authority (HCRRA) Trail, had expressed an interest in connecting to City water. The estimated total project cost of $80,080 represented a cost of approximately $8,898 per property based on 9 properties. Mr. Kalewski explained stubs from the trunk main ""quid be extendedtq the property line. He also explained that under all three of the options, when thepr()p~.rty owner decided to connect to City water they would pay the difference between the actual assessl11etjt:~m.ount and the current connection fee (which is $10,000 for a singl~residential property, $15,000 fora duplex property, and $20,000 for fourplex property). He also noted there had been an informational meeting with the property owners. Mayor Love opened the Public Testimony portion of the Public Hearing at 7:32 P.M. He asked each property owner to keep their remarks to\ess than three minutes. Administrator Dawson stated Sharon Starks, 5420 Wedgewood Drive, had submitted her support for Option 2 via emaiI. Councilmember Wellens clarified Steve Gurney, Acting City Engineer, recommended Option 1 not Option 3 as written in Mr. Gurney's repoli under Item] O.A. Pam Evans, 5460 Wedgewood Drive, stated she did not think affected propeliy owners understood the importance of this PoJb~~9.HYl:lring, because there were 5 property owners that favored the watermain improvement project that ""Fre unable to attend because of conflicts. She then stated she was in support of Option I, rather than doing additional watermain improvement projects for the same area at a future date. Michael Pressman, 5670 Wedgewood Drive, thanked the Council for its deliberation in considering the watermain improvement project. He asked Council to consider a 20-year assessment to lessen the financial burden on the property owners. Marilyn Swanson, 5455 Mallard Lane, stated the majority of duplex owners on Mallard Lane were not in support of the watermain improvement project. Mayor Love closed the Public Testimony pOliion of the Public Hearing at 7:37 P.M. CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING June 12,2006 Page 7 of 13 In response to a question from Councilmember Callies, Director Brown explained Option I included in Options 2 and 3, and Option 1 was recommended by Staff. Brown noted Option 3 was the option that reached the 67% property owner petition level. He also noted a four-fifths vote by the Council was required to extend water, even in the absence of a petition. Director Brown stated the petition percentages included the property located at 5640 Harding Lane, because the property owner had expressed interest in City water. Councilmember Turgeon explained one of the properties on Wedgewood Drive had not been occupied in two years as a result of the property owner's death, and another property had not been occupied since March 2006. She suggested the property that had been vacant for two yel:lrs.should not be included in the percentage. Director Brown explained both of those properties had been appropriately counted as a non- response. Councilmember Lizee stated the property owners had been provided numerous opportunities to respond. Brown explained the property must be considered under the Minnesota Statute 429 process. In response to a question from Councilmember Lizee, Administrator Dawson explained the length of the assessment would be determined by Council at the end of the project; the length of assessments had typically been 15 years. Mayor Love closed the Public Hearing at 7:42 P.M. Without objection from the Council, Mayor Love asked that Item I O.A. be considered next. 7. PARKS None. 8. PLANNING CommissionerG<wley reported<H1tnattersconsiPKred and actions taken at the June 6, 2006, Planning Commissionmeetihg{~$petailedintl1e minutes ofthat meeting). A. Conditional Use Permit -Accessory Space in Excess of 1200 Square Feet Applicant: David Brenke Location: 5980 Cajed Lane Director Nielsen stated David Brenke, who owned the property at 5980 Cajed Lane, had applied for a conditional use permitto construct an attached garage and room addition on his property. The floor area of the new garage would be in excess of 1200 square feet, necessitating a conditional use permit. The property was zoned R-IA, Single-Family Residential and contained 40,983 square feet of area. He then stated the existing house plus the new addition would contain approximately 1462 square feet of floor area on one floor, and the proposed garage would contain an additional 1408 square feet. He noted the new garage would be attached to the south side of the house. Nielsen then reviewed how the applicants proposal complied with the four specific criteria for granting this type of conditional use permit, as specified in Section 1201.03 Subd.2.d(4) of the Shorewood Zoning Code. CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING June 12,2006 Page 8 of 13 1. The total area of accessory space (1408 square feet) did not exceed the total floor area above grade ofthe principal structure (1462 square feet). 2. The total area of accessory space did not exceed ten percent of the minimum lot area for the R-] A zoning district (.10 x. 40,000 square feet = 4000 square feet). 3. The proposed garage complied with the setback requirements of the R] -A zoning district. Removal of the existing garage would eliminate a nonconforming structure. Hardcover on the property would only amount to 13.7 percent. 4. The new garage would be integrated into the architecture of the existing home. As such the roof lines, materials and architectural character of the garage would be consistent with the principle dwelling. Director Nielsen stated the Planning Commission recommended approval of the conditional use permit as requested. Callies moved, Turgeon seconded, Approving RESOLUTION NO. 06-042, "A Resolution Granting a Conditional Use Permit for Additional Accessory Spa.ce to David Brenke, 5980 Cajed Lane." Motion passed 5/0. B. Minor Subdivision Applicant: Location: Anne and Jack Carter 5705/5725 Smithtown Way Director Nielsen stated Anne and Jack Carter had arranged to purchase the properties located at 5705 Smithtown Way and 5725 Smithtown Way. They proposed combining the two lots, and then re- subdividing the combined lot into two lots. He stated the propelty was zoned R-I C, Single-Family Residential, and was currently occupied by a single-family residence and a detached garage. The two proposed lots would contain 20,030 ~quare feet (Parcel A) and 41,725 square feet (Parcels Band C combined). Niels.en noted the CaRers ultimately want to subdivide the 4],725 square-foot lot into two lots, a 2],] square~fQ()l lot (Parcel B) and a 20,576 square-foot lot (Parcel C) and demolish the old house anc/garage, once a new house had been built on the Parcel A. Nielsen thell stated all three of tIle proposed lots would comply with R-l C zoning district requirements. Sanitary sewefwas available to the new lots, noting new services would have to be constructed at such time as someone applied for a building permit. He stated Staff recommended the combination/minor division be approvedsllbject to ~he following: I. The applicants' surveyor should revise the survey to show that Parcels Band C would be at least 100 feet wide at the building line (front setback). 2. The applicants must provide legal descriptions for the proposed lots. One simplified description must be written for Parcels Band C as a single parcel. 3. The applicants must provide legal descriptions and deeds for drainage and utility easements, ]0 feet on each side of each lot line. CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING June 12,2006 Page 9 of 13 4. The applicants would have to request a vacation of the existing drainage and utility easements on the property. It would probably be easiest to simply vacate all the current easements and then dedicate the new ones as specified above. 5. The applicants must provide an up-to-date (within 30 days) title opinion for review by the City Attorney. 6. Items 1-4 must be submitted prior to the request being scheduled for City Council review, but no later than 30 days. 7. Since no additional lots would be created at this time, no additional park dedication or sewer access fees would be required at this time. Upon re-subdivision of Parcels Band C, the applicants would have to pay the park and sewer charges that would be in effect at that time. 8. Since the division itself does not result in the removal of any trees from the property, tree preservation and reforestation can be addressed at the time building permits were applied for. Director Brown stated when the sewer service for Parcel A was installed, a second service should be put in at the same time to avoid cutting into the street twice. Nielsen stated the Planning Commission recommended approval of the combination/minor subdivision subject to Staff recommendations. Lizee moved, Wellens seconded, Directing Staff to Prepar~ a Resolution Approving a Combination / Minor Subdivision for Anne and Jack Carter, 5705/5725 Smithtown Way, Subject to Staff Recommendations. In response to a question from Counc.ilmember Turgeon, Director Nielsen explained the Carters would have to have ownership bfthe properly before they could file the resolution. He noted the resolution would come before Council ata July 10,2006, City Council meeting. Motion passed 5/0. c. Minor Subdivision Applicant: Location: Ann Meldahl 6180 Cathcart Drive Director Nielsen sta~ed Ann MeJdahl, who owned the property at 6180 Cathcart Drive, had changed her mind regarding theprbposed subdivision of her property (per her letter, dated 15 May 2006). He explained the new proposal was the same application she made in October 2005 and, with the exception of the issues related to a conditional use permit, Staffs recommendations remain the same as stated in the 27 October 2005 Staff report. Nielsen then stated the proposed configuration would establish a building site that would front on Cathcart Drive rather than West 62nd Street, and would result in a building pad location with a higher elevation and the drainage pattern being maintained. He noted the subdivision would comply with the requirements of the R-l A, Single-Family Residential zoning district. Nielsen went on to state Staff suggested all the current easements be vacated and then dedicate the new ones as specified for the new configuration of the lots. CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING June 12,2006 Page 10 of 13 Nielsen stated the Planning Commission recommended approving the minor subdivision subject to Staff recommendations 2 6 that were identified in the 27 October 2005 Staff report, noting Staff recommendation 1 had been satisfied. Lizee moved, Wellens seconded, Directing Staff to Prepare a Resolution Approving a Minor Subdivision for Ann Meldahl, 6180 Cathcart Drive, Subject to Staff Recommendations. In response to a question from Councilmember Lizee, Director Nielsen explained the placement of a "sight or scenic" easement over the portion of the northerly lot that would affect any view was a private matter between the Meldahls and the individuals to whom they sold the newptbperty. Motion passed 5/0. 9. GENERAL/NEW BUSINESS A. Hazardous Building Removal Order to Repair or Remove Location: 20965 Forest Drive Director Nielsen stated the City had received a number of complaints relative to the property located at 20965 Forest Drive. Since the time of the first complaint, ownership of the property had changed. The property owner had been sent Notices to Remove for violations of City Code. The Building Official had become increasingly concerned with the physical integrity of the building. When the concerns were brought to the attention of the current owner of the property, he had indicated the building would be demolished in conjunction with the construction of a new house,once the road restrictions were lifted. Todate, nothing had been done.. Nielsen stated Staff nowtecommelld~~the building be condemned, based upon inspections made by the Building Official and the Fire Department. He then reviewed the reasons the building was deemed hazardous. Mayor Love thariked Director Nielsen and Staff for their efforts on the matter. Councilmember Lizee expressed concern with the fact the hazardous building could remain unsecured for ten days following the approval of the order to secure the building for reasons of safety.

CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING June 12,2006 Page II of 13 B. Appeal Notice to Remove and Zoning Violation Notice Appellant: Mary Echols Location: 4960 Suburban Drive Director Nielsen stated Mary Echols, who owned the property located at 4960 Suburban Drive, had received a Notice to Remove dated May 12, 2006. He then stated Ms. Echols had requested a two-week extension to remove the items in violation of the City Code. Nielsen noted the property had been inspected on June 12, 2006, and reported the propeliy had been cleaned up substantially. He went on to state Ms. Echols also requested an additional 60 days in which she would use the building materials stored on the property. Nielsen stated Ms. Echols questioned the zoning violations, stating that one of the structures was a fish house and should be counted as recreational equipment, and she requested a height variance for one of the sheds. He explained the City Code required a conditional use permit to exceed two accessory buildings, and the detached structures were limited to one story and 15 feet height. He stated Ms. Echols expressed a desire for a variance to the 15-foot height r~quirement, and he noted she would have to adhere to the variance procedure to achieve that. Staff recommended Ms. Echols apply for a conditional use permit and a variance as soon as possible, acknowledging it would take time for survey work to be completed before the applications could be started. Mary Echols, 4960 Suburban Drive, questioned the need for a survey. Director Nielsen explained both a conditional use permit and a variance require survey work to determine the location of the buildings on the property. In response to a question from Councilmember Turgeon, Director Nielsen stated Ms. Echols should make an effort to meet the July 5, 2006, date for applying for the C.U.P. and variance. He then stated if the survey work could not be completed by that date, then the applications must be completed no later than August I, 2006. Mayor Love clarified thateither the property had to be brought into compliance or the applications for a C.U.P. and variance mustb~filed no later than August 1,2006. Ms. Echols questioned why a car port was considered a detached structure. In response toaqu~stion fromCouncilmember Callies, Director Nielsen stated Council did not need to take action with reg~(rcl to cleanup of the property as much of the cleanup had been completed. Callies moved, Wellens seconded, Approving an Extension to August 1,2006, for Either the Filing of Applications for a CU.P. to Exceed Two Detached Structures and a Height Variance for a Detached Structure, or the Property to Become Compliant with the Zoning Code, for Mary Echols, 4960 Suburban Drive. Motion passed 5/0. 10. ENGINEERING/PUBLIC WORKS A. Approval of Plans and Specifications, and Ordering Advertisement for Bids for Watermain Installation as Part of Wedgewood Road, Mallard Lane, Teal Circle Road Rehabilitation Project CITY OF SHOREWOOD REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING June 12, 2006 Page 12 of 13 (This item 1 a.A. was discussed after Item 6.A.) Councilmember Wellens stated from his perspective the absence of a response should be considered as opposition; therefore, he would support Option 2 because of its greater percentage of supporting propelty owners and the lower cost to the property owners. Councilmember Callies stated she supported Option I (which she thought was the most responsible option), because it was the Council's responsibility to make decisions based on current and future propeliy owners; and, watermain extensions should be completed in the most cost-effective way possible. Councilmember Turgeon stated she could support either Option I or Option 2, noting she did have some empathy for the duplex propelty owners on Mallard Lane who were not in favor of the watermain extension. She went on to state she would be more comfOliable with supporting Option 2. Councilmember Lizee stated she sUPPolied Option I. She explained it was more efficient to implement the watermain extension in conjunction with the road reclamation, storm water management, drain tiles, etc. project. She suggested if Option 2 or Option 3 were implemented, the road reclamation project should end where the watermain installation ended. Director Brown clarified the Staffs recommendation for the road reclamation project would encompass the entireco.rridor as planned. Mayor Love commented the percent of property owners in suppol"t of the watermain extension was to provide guidance to Council, not to restrictc.::ouncil's decisionstegarding water. He stated it was impOliant to extend the watermainthroughout the road reclamation project corridor. Councilmember Callies stated she thought the four-fifths vote was a requirement of Statute 429, and all the Councilmembers were in favor of some type of assessment. Administrator Dawson clarified the four- fifths vote was also necessqrytodetennine the scope of the project. Callies moved, Lizee seconded, Adopting RESOLUTION NO. 06-043, "A Resolution Ordering Improvement, Approving Plans, Specifications and Estimates and Authorizing Advertisement for Bids for Watermain Installation as Part of Wedgewood Road, Mallard Lane, Teal Circle Road Rehabilitation Project for the Entire Project Corridor (Option 1)." In response to a question from Councilmember Turgeon, Councilmember Wellens stated he would not suppOli Option I because 49% of the property owners were not in support of the watermain extension, again noting he counted the absence of a response as not in support ofthe extension. Councilmember Turgeon com~ented the number of supportive responses in the Mallard Lane area was significant; and she respected Councilmember Lizee's comments with regard to road reclamation. Mayor Love stated Council had a responsibility to consider extending water throughout the entire road reclamation project corridor. He then stated Council also needed to make decisions based on the future of the City. Therefore, he would support Option 1. In response to a question from Councilmember Wellens about the possibility of looping watermain in Wedgewood Drive to another watermain, Director Brown stated cost was the factor in determining not to connect Wedgewood Drive and County Road 19 at this time. The City could initiate looping the watermain at a future date, and most likely at city expense. This route would be most lifely for looping. Motion passed 4/1, with Wellens dissenting.

He require removal and replacement of a lOOO-foot hedge adjacent to of the hedge had not been included in March 2005 estimates. of the Boulder Bridge Homeowners Association to discuss Brown stated the revised estimated cost for the project was $190,000. The preliminary assessment roll would be approximately $9,235 per acre, based on a 50-50 cost split between the City and the properties with area tributary to the pond. Discussion ensued with regard to who should be responsible for replacing the hedge which was located within a utility easement. ~ CITY OF SHOREWOOD WORK SESSION MEETING June 12, 2006 Page 2 of 4 With regard to the Mary Lake watershed, Brown stated the water levels on Mary Lake had risen close to three houses that were adjacent to the Lake, and one had a building opening that was approximately the same elevation as the overflow elevation of Mary Lake. He explained the recommended option to was to install a new storm sewer system line east down Clover Lane, south on Minnetonka Drive, and southeast down McLain Road. The existing drain tile in the area would be connected to the new storm sewer system; and roadway edge control would also be installed. Brown stated the estimated cost for the project was $445,000. The approximately $4,670 per acre, based on a 50-50 cost split between area. Based on that rate one of the properties would be assessed property would be assessed approximately $14,100. assessment roll would be and the properties in the $20,600 and another would Brown stated the issue at hand was how to fund the projects. could be used based on a 50-50 cost split, noting the test He stated a Chapter 429 assessment process would be determine the exact benefit to the property, noting not exceed the special benefit test (i.e. increase in tax district process "just and equitable". would difficult to amount shall Storm Water Fund which water utility fee was less than the current storm water utility fees to $10 per quarter, revenues $15 per quarter (the same as the Brown went on to state the 10.5 years based on years if the fee were increased to Brown stated Staff would recommend the projects be would require a storm water utility fee neighboring cities'.

Councilmember Callies stated it was her understanding the question in front of Council was whether the drainage projects should be funded by a City-wide storm water utility fee increase or if the individual properties would be charged for 50%, or even 100%, ofthe project costs. Mayor Love stated Council had previously had discussions with regard to specific property owners being assessed for road improvements. He then stated he did not philosophically oppose increasing the storm water utility rate for the entire City. He did have concerns that during wet seasons there may be an influx of property owners wanting drainage issues resolved. He also wanted to ensure there was a mechanism in CITY OF SHOREWOOD WORK SESSION MEETING June 12, 2006 Page 3 of 4 place to reduce/eliminate the fee increase if it appeared unnecessary reserves were being built; yet it was important there were significant reserves available twenty years from now. He noted the change would be a change in policy. Director Brown stated for the City to fund the projects or pay 50% of the project costs would set precedent. Director Nielsen stated Administrator Dawson going to be was asking for the project 50% of the cost. Councilmember Wellens stated the Boulder Bridge Homeowners to be done; therefore, he thought it was appropriate for the property Director Nielsen explained the City's Comprehensive Plan stated ta projects such as the two being discussed. The plan suggested properties, 20% of the cost would be funded out of the funded from the General Fund under the Chapter 444 . cts could be used to pay for be assessed to the affected and 10% would be Councilmember Lizee stated she would prefer a projects rather than use a fee increase or Chapter to fund the Councilmember Callies questioned if a Chapter 444 Attorney Keane stated he thought it Councilmember Callies stated she owners for project costs. in assessing property was extremely difficult. 444 process to be used if the properties were recommend a Chapter 444 process over a the drainage issues be considered on perspective, if the storm water utility rate were political boundaries. If a process of having taxing districts were and would equally benefit, noting the 50-50 cost sharing Attorney Council needed to address was the timeframe for completing the higher projects. Once that was determined there were three alternatives for funding the storm water utility fund; 2) Council could establish a policy to split the cost 50-50 and special Chapter 429 assessments to the property owners; or 3) create a special sub-utility special improvement projects. He went on to question if the Boulder Bridge development had been undersized, noting the development was not that old. He also stated 14 property owners were being asked to fund a project that largely benefited only 4 property owners. Councilmember Wellens stated he would prefer the property owners be charged for part of the improvement costs (either 50% of the costs or in accordance with the comprehensive plan), but he did not support a rate increase to fund the projects. Councilmember Callies stated she would prefer an assessment approach to fund the projects; but a rate increase may also be in order to cover the cost of services provided. She then stated there may be projects where the City should absorb more of the costs because the improvements benefited the City in general. CITY OF SHOREWOOD WORK SESSION MEETING June 12, 2006 Page 4 of 4 Councilmember Turgeon agreed with considering a rate increase. There needed to the necessary funds for drainage projects that were not residential in nature.

The purpose of this letter is to address each item listed in the complaint. As some of you on the council mayor may not know, I have been mired in a construction nightmare begimling in June, 2005 and continuing to this day. The contractor I had originally hired for my project caused many delays to the project planning and engineering and subsequently took off to Florida with my $35,000 without intent to retum. and finish the job. The project was supposed to be completed by the fall of2005. As a result, all of the contents from rny fonner garage have been stored in my house, detached garage, a storage vehicle and yard since it's demolition. It couldn't just disappear with my garage. Connnurucation with the DepartnAent of Labor and Industry as well as the Minnesota atton-xey general has started a process to resolve the issue with tills contractor. I have since hired a new contractor to complete the project. Any correspondence the council needs on this matter will happily be supplied as needed. The items in dispute aJ:e as follows: . GMC Van Lic# YU 62409. This is the storage vehicle I m.entioned which contains my garage doors, tracks, mounting hardware, and many m.iscellaneous garage tools and accessories. The registration was not renewed, as the vehicle physically cannot move because ofthe excavated soil from the construction. The only way to get it out would be to drive it over a neighbor's property and I would rather not tear up their yard as a result. I would like to ask that it remain until the contents can be removed and put in the new garage. I can an.d will get ClUTent registration on the vehicle as defined by city code. Exhibit B Jun. 9. 2006 12:02PM Nislevo Corporal ion No. 1756 P. 3 . Ford Bronco Lic# HGB637. This vehicle has been rernoved and is no longer an issue. . Car-No License. This is a modified specialty vehicle used for parades and similar activities. It has always been stored in the fanner garage and was only supposed to be outside for a short time while the new garage was to be constructed. It has no roof so it cannot be outside but I was forced to do so and cover it with a tarp. In had a garage for it right now, it would be in it. I ask the cOUJJcil to allow it to retnain outside for no longer than 90 days} the tin:t.e allotted for completion o[1he garage. III LP Tanks aDd heaters. I assume by "heaters" it is meant the large bumers used for outdoor coohing for special events. These items were stored in the fonner garage and a place will be found for them within the storage VfUl III Foam Panel. Left by the previous contractor when he brought some construction materials last summer. I asslillled it to be part of the insulating fOffilS to be used in construction but after consulting the new contractor, I realize he waS just dumping garbage on my property. It will be disposed of. III Sink. This was a utility tub used in the fonner garage that I save for re-use. I will try to find a spot for it within the storage van otherwise it will be disposed of and I'll just have to buy a new one. . Pails. I'm not sme which pails are being referred to unless they are the ones within the aforementioned sink. Whatever pails I discover shall be disposed of. . Pallets. Construction materials can:t.e in on these. I thought they were considered part of the construction debris and allowed while holding a valid pennit. They will be removed upon completion o[1he project as they are needed for reuse. . Skid Steer Sweeper. This is one of the pieces of equipment left on my property frmn the previous contractor. As the issue Wit11 this contractor has yet to be resolved, I have been instructed by the Department of Labor and IJ:J,dustry to secure the unit until such time as it is decided by COUli order or other mutually agreed solution that it has been abandoned to rn,y care_ It should not be removed from the property pending the outcmne of any litigation. I have moved the unit to be as out of sight as possible. . Timbers. Conshllction debris related to demolition of original structure. They will be reused as possible and anything left over will be disposed of. . Well tank. Definitely junk. It will be disposed of. . Tires. These new tires were awaiting mounting on my motor home. That has since been completed. III Window/wood frame. I'm assuming this is referring to a homemade sandblaster unit that was in the former garage. The unit was too big to fit in the house, detached garage or storage van. I ask the council to allow it to stay outside until completion of the new garage. I will try to find a spot for it more out of sight and cover it. . Pipes. I'm assuming this is refen'ing to parts of the support structure needed to suppOli the IeF walls that will be erected in the new construction. These are also part of what the original contractor left on my property for construction of the new garage. They will be gone upon com.pletion of the project.

This project has now been completed. This project has been party to several delays, necessary design changes, and weather. As such, the period of construction was extended from nine months to approximately eighteen months. Many unknowns and issues had to be addressed, that was cause for major revisions to the design documents and construction. Other delays in accepting this project has been the perpetual and ongoing negotiations between City Staff and the General Contractor regarding changes to the contract, and what the contractor perceived as delays and added costs to the project. Initial change order requests by the contractor were in the range of $30,000 +/- in addition to the original contract amount of $215,306.00. Staff has spent a considerable time with the change order request, and has negotiated the total change order for the project, to an amount of $17,877.60 (refer to Attachment 1). This represents an 8.3 percent change to the contract. This is less than the 10 percent contingency programmed for the project. Therefore, Staff is recommending that Change Order 1 be accepted, and final payment for the project be issued, pending receipt of tax and withholding documents.

Basically, they are requiring sweeping twice a year on said streets and then no mowing for the "buffer" adjacent to the ditch that runs through the project. While they would like to require a buffer along the entire ditch, they can't require this on private property. However, they do want the areas under City control, in this case the area within City right-of-way to be maintained as a buffer. This area is almost entirely trees, so it is not anticipated that this will cause any problems with the City's normal operations. In the past, the MCWD required that Declarations be recorded with the County, but that is no longer the case. We will be working with the MCWD to develop a "Blanket" agreement that we can use for similar projects in the future. Recommendation Staff is recommending that the City Council approve the attached Declaration and submit it to MCWD as required as a condition of the pending permit for the Wedgewood Drive, Mallard Lane, and Teal Circle Road Reclamation and Watermain Improvement Project. ,..,.. ~ . PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER .... DECLARATION THIS DECLARATION ("Declaration") is made this _day of_, 2006, by the City of Shorewood, Minnesota, ("Declarant").

(the "Property") and no one other than Declarant, has any right, title or interest in the Property; and WHEREAS, the Property constitutes the entirety of the public right of way to which Minnehaha Creek Watershed District Permit # 06-088 applies; and WHEREAS, Declarant desires to subject the Property to certain conditions and restrictions imposed by the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District as a condition to issuance of their Permit # 06-088 for the mutual benefit of the owners of the Property. NOW, THEREFORE, Declarant makes this Declaration and hereby declares that this Declaration shall constitute convenants to run with the Property in perpetuity, and further declares that the Property shall be owned, used, occupied, and conveyed subject to the convenants, restrictions, easements, charges and liens set forth in this Declaration, all of which shall be binding on all persons owning or acquiring any right, title or interest in the Property, and their heirs, successors, personal representatives, and assigns. 1. Wetland Buffer. The wetland buffer, measuring 1445.00 square feet in surface area surrounding the wetlands as delineated on the site plan for the Property attached hereto and incorporated herein as Attachment A-I, shall be maintained by Declarant in perpetuity free from mowing or other vegetative disturbance, fertilizer application, yard or other waste disposal, the placement of structures or any other alteration that impedes the function of the buffer in protecting the quality of water in the wetland or buffering flows into the wetland. 2. Street Sweeping. All streets and public ways within the Property as illustrated herein as Attachment A-2, shall be swept at least twice each year, in the spring following snowmelt and in the fall after leaf fall. 3.

Attachment 1 is a picture of the SE Area Water Tower depicting the installation. As the ownership of cellular sites has been dynamic, this cellular site is no exception. The current tenant operating the approved facility is Cingular Wireless. The agreement that governs this installation allows the tenant to make certain modifications to the site and to swap out the antennas, on an as needed basis. Certainly, they must meet the conditions of the original Conditional Use Permit (CUP). Cingular Wireless, has proposed changes to the interior cable runs inside the water tower, and minor changes to the antennas at the top of the tower that are consistent with the original CUP. Staff has requested that KLM Engineering provide the technical inspections and welding certifications for this installation. Under the lease agreement executed with Cingular Wireless, the City shall be compensated for any and all costs that are directly attributable to the Lessee's improvements. KLM's proposal has been included as Attachment 2 to this memorandum. As a secondary note to this item, current standards for water towers and the mounting of antennas on top of water towers, dictate that a higher railing with three horizontal guardrails be installed on the top of the tower. Careful examination of Attachment 1 depicts the current railing which only has two rows of horizontal railings. ,..,.. t' . PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER ..,., Mayor and City Council Accept KLM Proposal June 22, 2006 Page 2 of 2 After meeting with the representatives of Cingular Wireless, staff proposed that the contractors for Cingular Wireless change the railing to meet current standards. Costs for the change out would be split evenly between the City and Cingular Wireless. It is worth noting that the City would have incurred 100 percent of the costs, if the tower were being rehabilitated. Having stated this, the item under consideration for this memorandum is the proposal provided by KLM, Engineering. The tenant will reimburse all costs incurred by the City. Recommendation Staff is recommending that the attached proposal submitted by KLM Engineering be accepted. KLM ENGINEERING; INC. P.O.

PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER ..,., Mayor and City Council Proposal Safe Assure Consultants June 22, 2006 Page 2 of 2 Safe Assure also includes, as part of the proposed fee, an automated Material Data Safety Sheet program. OSHA mandates that every material that an employee comes in contact with must have a Material Data Safety Sheet (MSDS) that outlines health risks, protective equipment to be utilized, and chemical reaction data. Attachment 2 is a sample of an MSDS sheet. This mandate, not only applies to chemicals, but to everyday items such as bolts, wood, and asphalt. The job of keeping MSDS sheets current for every product that is received is an ominous task, at best. Thus, the costs of the safety services on addition to the MSDS service is of great value. Recommendation Staff is recommending approval of the proposal provided by Safe Assure Consultants for safety services in the amount of $2,470.00. CITY OF SBOBEWOOD ~m '~m~~/~~~!m~~!

In order to provide this convenience, the City uses the document imaging program implemented last year, and a software program called Weblink. After much discussion with the City's computer consultant (Techies Outsourced IT), staff has concluded that it is desirable to provide this information via a separate, additional computer server. The reason for not using the City's primary computer server for web accessible purposes are concerns about security breaches, hackers, and general mayhem, any of which have the potential of crippling our operations. To that end, Techies has provided a quote for the additional server in the amount of approximately $2,300 (including tax and shipping). The server installation date is scheduled for July 12 and the software provider and computer consultant are available then, provided the hardware is received. The server specifications are compatible with the City's current standards. Funds are available for this purchase in the Public Facilities/Office Equipment Fund. Action Requested Staff requests Council authorization for expenditure of funds in the amount of approximately $2,300 for purchase of an additional server for the Weblink use, as proposed by the City's computer consultant. ,..,.. t' .

Roll Call Present: Chair Davis, Commissioners Young and Westerlund; City Engineer Brown, later met by Commissioners Moonen and Norman. Absent: Commissioner Hensley and City Council liaison. PARK TOUR 1. EUREKA ROAD & SMITHTOWN ROAD TRAIL The Commissions was met by Three Rivers Park District Planning Manager, Jonathon Vlaming, who explained the impending trail kiosk program proposed along all trails. Identified as the Lake Minnetonka LRT Regional Trail, Vlaming stated that the trail would be marked every 2 miles by an informational kiosk containing two panels. One of the panels would contain an aerial photo map showing trails and directional signs, while the other panel would provide a trail system map, safety tips, and contain points of interest. In addition to the kiosks, Vlaming noted that 10' tall directional street signs would be posted every mile designating points of interest. Vlaming indicated that the kiosk panels would be made of aluminum sheeting with a vinyl application and photos that could be easily replaced as updated. Young asked about bike safety and passing. Vlaming stated that the park district hopes to start a bike safety education campaign by the end of the summer. Brown pointed out that the police department has requested that signs be posted at Smithtown and County Road 19 informing pedestrians that the cross traffic does not stop, as this is not an official designated crosswalk. He asked Vlaming if there was an opportunity for the District to participate in a link from the LRT in Tonka Bay to the shopping center at Smithtown and County Road 19. Vlaming stated that the connector trails are the responsibility of the local municipalities, though funding is sometimes available through the county. Moonen arrived at 6:20 p.m. Vlaming noted that the kiosks should be completed by August 1st and that the anti-graffiti surfaces should help deter maintenance issues. In addition, daily patrols monitoring the trails should alleviate some vandalism issues. .1ft 71} PARK COMMISSION MINUTES TUESDA Y, JUNE 13,2006 PAGE 5 OF 5 2. SKATE PARK Brown pointed out that the public works staff was replacing the old sheeting now and that the sides would be replaced with an all black covering as well. Since the quality between the two manufacturers is so significant, Brown stated that the City may ask the new contractor if they would replace the older wood rails with the metal ones they provide. He noted that the average life span of the equipment is typically 5 years. Brown asked the Commissioners whether they had any additional visions for the park. Nonnan an-ived at 6:30 p.m. Westerlund stated that it would be nice to have an interpretive kiosk placed at the site to explain the history of the location. In addition, a water fountain would be appropriate. NOlman suggested additional seating for parents to watch their children other than in their vehicles. Young asked why the water fountain, mentioned in the past, has not been possible. Brown stated that, while vandalism is always an issue, there was never water available for the site until the recent water extension. With the recent extension, Brown pointed out that the City does have the ability to provide a fountain at this location. He indicated that he would investigate where the $1,000 annual donation from the American Legion has been going and see if it could be used to install a fountain. Westerlund suggested the City consider installing a fence along the Highway as a safety precaution. 3. MANOR PARK Brown reported that the public works staff had been trying to keep a buffer oflong grass near the shoreline of the pond to deter geese, until the most recent mowing in which they mowed to close to the shore. With regard to the tennis courts, Brown reported that the quotes to repair them have come in at roughly $30,000. He indicated that he would continue to determine which method to pursue, repair, rip up, or overlay. The Commission admired the recent garden planted around the maple tree and reviewed the proposed tree donation locations for the park. Adjustments to the tree locations were made slightly so as not to interfere with the activities of the park. eRR Consultant Anderson gave a brief overview of the sports use at Manor Park. Anderson pointed out that the ball field and lacrosse fields almost overlap, but noted both organizations have been sensitive to the others needs. She explained that if the athletes using the ball field were any older, there would be additional safety issues to consider. Anderson pointed out that due to the requirement that Badger Park rest this year and the ongoing conditions of that field, lacrosse was unable to use the facility this year. She suggested that the Commission make considerations to Badger this year so as to avoid a PARK COMMISSION MINUTES TUESDA Y, JUNE 13,2006 PAGE SOFS similar situation next year. She commented that it is unfortunate that a beautiful and sizable field should be sitting empty while users compete for space elsewhere. Chair Davis suggested the Commission should not deny a request and donation opportunity to reforest its parks and asked about the pond planting project. Westerlund suggested the City recognize the Babcock's for their donation. Brown indicated that WSB was drawing up an RFP for the pond planting project, as staff has not had the ability to do so. He agreed that the City should recognize the donation and noted that the policy does not address this. 4. SIL VERWOOD Brown reported that staff had found a web product that can be staked down to aid in erosion control around the slide. He stated that WSB is looking into it for the City for installation in the fall. Brown stated that they chose to keep the grass on the sliding hill longer to deter erosion there as well. Young noted that the tennis practice board had been painted and asked about the surface. Brown stated that, while the board had been painted, the practice surface had not been seal coated last year and that it would be this year. Westerlund questioned the hard sand surface at the base of the slide. Brown stated that the sand is dug out 2 - 3 times a year with the addition of sand as needed. 5. BADGER PARK Brown stated that lights and drainage continue to be major problems at the parle He indicated that new lighting and the installation of tile lines under the field soil would help tremendously with field conditions. He pointed out the addition of a small parking area. Westerlund strongly recommended the City make those things happen. She stated that she would support getting it done for sure as soon as possible. Young asked when the field could be reintegrated into use. Brown pointed out that the field would be used for football this fall and with new tile the field could be used again in the spring. Again, he pointed out that the current light system is inadequate at best, and dangerous at the least, since the light mounts themselves are unsafe. He indicated that 1-2 new banks of lights for the area should be adequate, but they are expensive. He indicated that they were putting together a study to detennine what lighting contracting should be done. Westerlund asked if the City could get the lighting issue resolved by the fall. PARK COMMISSION MINUTES TUESDA Y, JUNE 13, 2006 PAGE50F5 t:., Brown stated that 'yes' the lights could be done by fall. Neighbor and Park user interjected that the lights are oftentimes on at odd times. Brown stated that the City sets the lights to go on at 4:30 pm before he leaves for the day to ensure that they come on at all, as they are unreliable. He stated that while the city has put money into a timing system and electrical controls, the lights themselves continue to be the Issue. Young asked when the Commission could make the call to get this completed. Chair Davis stated that she would like to see this parks needs move to the top of the list. The Park Tour adjourned to the regular Park Commission Meeting at 7:45 p.m. 1. CONVENE PARK COMMISSION MEETING Review Agenda Item 6B, New Business, a Watershed update was added to the agenda.

Report on City Council Meeting of June 12, 2006 Brown reported that the City Council focused on the public hearing on the Wedgewood watermain topic and voted 4/1 to approve the watermain extension the entire length. In addition, Brown stated that the homesite across from the Three River Trail area will be subdivided into three parcels. Chair Davis stated that this old homestead is truly a treasure and that was sorry to see it go. , I, PARK COMMISSION MINUTES TUESDA Y, JUNE 13,2006 PAGE 50FS 5. DISCUSS PARK TOURS The Commission agreed that the immediate needs included lighting and tile options for Badger. Chair Davis urged staff to create a laundry list of other priorities that the Commission could discuss and make recommendations for at its next meeting. 6. CONSIDERATION OF SHELTER AT FREEMAN PARK FOR SOUTH TONKA LITTLE LEAGUE Brown explained that a new larger shed to store equipment in has been donated to the STLL and they wish to replace the existing shed with this and are locating a spot which meets setbacks. He suggested the Commission make a recommendation to help staff with the placement of the shed. Westerlund moved, Moonen seconded, to recommend approval of the request for the auxiliary equipment shed, subject to staff recommendations and removal of the existing shed. Motion passed 5/0. B. WATERSHED NEW BUSINESS UPDATE As an infonnational update, Westerlund stated that an RFP has been sent out for interpretive signs to be posted throughout the watershed. This would include three signs within Gideon Glen, one Wetland Sign, a Big Woods designation sign, and Nurp Pond sign. She indicated that at some point, the Commission may be asked to review the proposed signs prior to installation. 7. LIAISON FOR JUNE 26 CITY COUNCIL MEETING Since the Commission would be meeting earlier with the Council, the Commissioners could stay if necessary. 8.

Dawson, City Administrator Ai June 22, 2006 V Decision on Arbitration To Fund SLMPD Operations On June 15,2006, the Arbitration Panel for funding operations of the SLMPD issued the clarification of its Order. The 60-day clock for any member city to serve notice of withdrawal from the joint powers agreement (JPA) at the end of2007 began on that date. Consequently, any member city needs to serve such notice by August 15. The panel clarified its order that the allocation for operations only beginning with the SLMPD's 2007 budget is as follows: Excelsior 27% Greenwood 8% Shorewood 50% Tonka Bay 15% This allocation would remain in place through 2011. Beginning 2012, the allocation would be tweaked every five years based on the change within relationships for each the equally-weighted formula factors: tax capacity, population, and ICRs (incident complaint reports) per city. The impact on Shorewood of this decision going forward starts at approximately $62,000. In the Fourth Amendment to the JP A, the cities agreed that the base figure changes in their 2007 contributions was the amount that had been recommended by the Coordinating Committee for 2006: $1,556,100. The City is not subject to levy limits in 2007. City Council Action: The City Council may wish to comment on the Order. It should discuss this matter and identify what process, if any, it wishes to follow in consideration of approval of the Order or of serving notice of withdrawal from the JP A. As the arbitration is binding, the only avenue not to accept it is to withdraw. If the Council took no action, it would be deemed as approval of the Order. ,..,..

A duplicate original will be sent to each of you by regular mail today. Sincerely, GILBERT MEDIATION CENTER, LTD. Ja~::~ Enclosure cc: Marianne D. Short, Esq. Hon. Peter J. Lindberg In the Matter of The Arbitration of the Allocation of Operating Costs of Providing Police Services to the Member Cities of the South Lake Minnetonka Police Department FINDINGS OF FACT AND ORDER Pursuant to the Revised-Binding Arbitration Proposal of the Member Cities, dated December 5, 2005, the above-captioned matter was submitted to binding arbitration before "a mutually-acceptable panel of three arbitrators who are retired judges or justices."] The City of Excelsior was represented by Kevin P. Staunton; the City of Greenwood was represented by Mark W. Kelly; the City of Shorewood was represented by Timothy K. Keane; the City of Tonka Bay was represented by James G. Penberthy. The Arbitration hearing was held on May 4, 2006, at the Minnetonka City Hall. Based on the arguments, briefs, stipulated record and other submissions,2 the Panel makes the following: FINDINGS OF FACT 1. The Member Cities (Excelsior, Greenwood, Shorewood and Tonka Bay) of the South Lake Minnetonka Police Department are located on the south shore of Lake Minnetonka in Western Hennepin County as illustrated by the map found at Exhibit 19 of the Stipulated Record (all references to exhibits are to the parties' Stipulated Record). The unanimously agreed upon Arbitration Panel consists of: retired Minnesota Supreme Court Justice James H. Gilbert, retired Minnesota Court of Appeals Judge Marianne D. Short and retired Hennepin County District Court Judge Peter J. Lindberg. 2 The parties stipulated to a record consisting of a Statement of Stipulated Facts and Exhibits 1-19 (185 pages of text, graphs and charts), 10 video tapes of "Issues Group" meetings which occurred from March 2 through May 26, 2005. In addition, counsel for each Member City submitted approximately 20- page briefs and 5-page reply briefs with proposed findings of fact 2. Relevant comparable data for the Member Cities, taken from Exhibits 3, 5, 6 and 7, is listed below. Year Data Excelsior Greenwood Shorewood Tonka Bay (2004) Net Population 2,400 residents 800 residents 7,625 residents 1,600 residents (2005) Total Initial 2049 369 3,308 702 Complaint 31.9% 5.7% 51.5% 10.9% Repolt (IRe) and percentage (2006) Net land 396 acres 199.8 acres 3,337 acres 557 acres (2006) Net tax levy $1,003,770 $525,010 $4,190,395 $771,572 (2006) Net tax capacity $3,334,776 $2,447,073 $14,477,835 $4,609,014 and percentage 14% 10.1% 57.3% 18.5% (2006) Share of SLMPD budget as % of General Fund 24% 20..6% 15.3% 24.6% 3. The Member Cities are signatories to a joint powers agreement ("JP A") authorized by Minn. Stat. ~ 471.59. The JPA recognizes the cities as independent government units, and provides efficiency and financial savings to the Member Cities who could not afford individually to operate a fourteen member police officer department. The original JP A was executed in 1973. The JP A, dated January 1, 1998, has been amended four times (Exhibit 2). The Fourth Amendment, approved by each of the Member Cities in 2006, has not been executed yet. 4. Under the JP A, the Member Cities have created ajoint police force called the South Lake Minnetonka Police Department (SLMPD). The Member Cities agree that: (1) the SLMPD provides high quality professional police service that benefit each Member City and the citizens they serve; (2) the JP A provides each Member City with efficiency and financial savings while recognizing that the cities are independent 2 governmental units; and (3) the JP A specifically acknowledges each Member City's autonomy, uniqueness and requirements for local control. 5. The SLMPD currently employs 14 authorized full time police officers, who serve the SLMPD population of 12,425 citizens (Exhibit 10 at page 51). These facts equate to approximately one officer per 880 residents, or a 1.13 rate of officers per thousand residents (Exhibit 10 at page 51). In the Twin Cities metropolitan area, police staffing averages 1.1 to 1.4 officers per every thousand of population (Exhibit 11 at page 54). This information provides police departments with a standardized method for determining staffing levels (Exhibit 1 at page 5, paragraph 10). 6. The JP A also provides, among other things, a mechanism for allotting each Member City's share of the operating costs for the joint police force. For example, in 1973, costs of operating the department were allocated based on property value and each city paid the same share of the department's operating costs as its respective share of the total property value in the four-city area. That formula, in 1973, resulted in Excelsior paying 34.17% of the operating costs, Greenwood 8.17%, Shorewood 42.84%, and Tonka Bay 14.82% (Exhibit 13 at page 67). 7. Since 1973, each Member City has grown and developed. The total SLMPD operating budget has increased from $289,000 (Exhibit 14 at page 74) to $1,961,259 (Exhibit 12 at page 60) which includes the police facility debt service. Population and demand also have changed over time (Exhibit 5). The parties have amended the JP A to reflect these changes. 8. In 1978, the Member Cities modified the property value approach to cost allocation to include factors designed to measure demand. Under this formula, 60% of 3 the operating costs continued to be allocated based on assessed property value and 40% were based on demand. The demand portion of the formula was made up of population (20%), road miles (10%), and density components (10%). Density was defined as population divided by number of land acres. The demand portion of the new formula did not include calls. 9. In 1983, the Member Cities adopted a fixed percentages approach which resulted in these allocations: Excelsior 28%; Greenwood 9%; Shorewood 45%; and Tonka Bay 18% (Exhibit 13 at page 67). From 1988 to 1991, a formula plus demand was utilized (Exhibit 13 at page 67). 10. In 1992, the formula was modified to reflect call demand, rather than population, road miles, and density. "Call Demand" referred to the number of hours spent by officers while on duty in an individual city, or on matters originating out of an individual city (Exhibit 13 at page 67). In 1995, the formula allocated costs entirely based on Call Demand, and resulted in these percentages: Excelsior 31.40%; Greenwood 8.10%; Shorewood 43.90%; and Tonka Bay 16.60% (Exhibit 13 at page 67). 11. In 2000, the Member Cities repealed the use of demand in allocating costs of operating the department and adopted a fixed formula that required the cities to pay these percentages: Excelsior 29.5%; Greenwood 8.5%; Shorewood 46%; and Tonka Bay 16% (Exhibit 1 at page 2; cf. Exhibit 13 at page 67). 12. In 2002, in conjunction with an agreement by the Member Cities to finance and construct a new facility to house the police department, the JP A termination date was extended from 2007 to the date (expected to be 2023) on which the construction 4 debt is retired. The SLMPD facility was constructed in January 2004, the department moved to the new facility located in Shorewood (Exhibit 1 at page 3). 13. The debt service payments on the police facility are shared by the Member Cities. The 2006 debt service was $444,208,00 and debt service percentages for each Member City are as follows: Excelsior 14%; Greenwood 10.01 %; Shorewood 57.3%; and Tonka Bay 18.5% (Exhibit 12 at page 60). The existence of this building contributes to the long term viability of the jointly operated police department and the continuing relationship among the Member Cities. 14. On February 13,2002, the Member Cities agreed that the planning, financing and construction of the new SLMPD Police Station would be paid annually on an ad valorum basis. Each member approved the terms of the leasing arrangement, the construction contract and financing (Exhibit 2 at page 22). As set out by the parties in the Fourth Amendment to the Joint Powers Agreement (Exhibit 2, but separately submitted) paragraph: 1. SECTION 1. Section 8, subdivision 1 of the Agreement is hereby deleted and replaced with thefollowing: A. Term of Agreement and Withdrawal. This Agreement shall take effect January I, 1998 and continue through December 31,2023. ii. WITHDRA WL d. Any withdrawing Party shall continue paying the same portion of the ongoing payment the SLMP D makes to retire the debt incurred in 2002 to finance construction of the police building as required by theformula in effect at the time of written notice ofwithdrawal. A withdrawing Party shall have an ownership 5 interest in the building commensurate with the percentage its debt retirement payments (both before and after withdrawal) are of the total debt retirement payments made by the SLMPD. The ownership interest shall not include a right of use or occupation but shall entitle the Party to its pro rata share of any revenue generated through the lease, sale or other conveyance of the building. A withdrawing Party's payments on the debt shall end upon retirement of the debt or upon addition ofa new Party to this Agreement. 15. In 2005, the Member Cities disagreed on the allocation of annual dollar contribution to the operating budget of the SLMPD, thus the Member Cities entered into a Binding Arbitration Proposal which included the following provision: Binding Arbitration. The Member Cities agree to submit the issue of the allocation of the operating costs of providing police services to a mutually acceptable panel of three arbitrators who are retiredjudges orjustices. In the event that the Member Cities cannot agree on an arbitration panel by January 15, 2006, Excelsior shall select one arbitrator, the other cities shall select another and the two selected arbitrators shall select a third. The panel shall have the authority to use any criteria it sees fit to determine an equitable allocation of costs among the four member cities provided that the ultimate cost allocation decided upon by the panel may not be based entirely upon tax capacity (ad valorum) or demand. The panel's cost allocation shall assume that each member city shall receive full and completed police service and that all police services delivered within the SLMP Djurisdiction shall be included with the total cost of providing police services The panel shall be selected by February 1, 2006 and it shall issue its award by July 1, 2006. The Member Cities shall share the cost of the arbitration process in the same manner as described in the dispute resolution provision above. The funding allocation in the arbitration award shall be implemented beginning on January 1, 2007. 16. Each Member City receives full and complete police services, delivered within the SLMPD jurisdiction, which are included within the total cost of providing police services (Revised-Binding Arbitration Proposal at page 4). These services include 6 policing and patrolling parking meters, charter boat docks and the 20 acre Commons Park area located within the City of Excelsior. Excelsior contracts separately with the SLMPD for park patrol of these areas and the services associated with those activities are included within the ICRs (Exhibit 1 at page 4). Excelsior also retains approximately $15,000 generated annually from parking meter fines and $33,580 from charter boat dock and operating licenses (Exhibit 3 at page 30). 17. The governing body of the SLMPD consists of one committee member from each of the cities with an equal voice in the affairs of the committee. Under the IP A, the Police Chief has been designated with full and complete authority over all personnel matters and employees of the department, including sworn and un-sworn officers and employees (Exhibit 2 at page 14). Although there are differences in population among the Member Cities, each of the individual cities has received substantial benefits from belonging to the SLMPD which have provided their citizens appropriate availability, depth and quality coverage that has assured each Member City and their citizens full and complete police services. 18. The 2006 SLMPD total budget is $1,961,259. This total includes operating budget contributions of $1,517,051 and police facility debt service of $444,208 (Exhibit 12 at page 60). 19. This Arbitration involves reviewing a number of complex legal, economic, administrative and public safety issues that this panel has taken into account along with all of the criteria and data submitted. 7 NOW, THEREFORE, based on the findings herein, and the Member Cities' arguments, briefs, stipulated record, and other submissions, the Panel issues the following: ORDER 1. The Allocation for funding the SLMPD, other than for Excelsior's separately contracted services for park patrol of its Commons area and for dockmaster services associated with its public docks, shall be set taking into consideration the Member Cities' tax capacity, demand,3 population,4 and other equitable allocations of costs. Use of those criteria result in allocations as follows: Excelsior 27%; Greenwood 8%; Shorewood 50%; Tonka Bay 15%. 2. The funding percentages shall be reviewed and adjusted, if necessary, in five year increments from the date of this Order, due to changes in the five year average of tax capacity, ICRs or population of the Member Cities. The first adjustment to each Member Cities' dollar allocation toward the payment of law enforcement costs shall be based on a comparison of20ll data with the Member Cities' 2005 ICRs, Tax Capacity and 2004 Population contained in the Stipulated Record (Exhibit 3 at page 28, Exhibit 5 and Exhibit 7 at page 42). Thereafter, the comparison of the tax capacity, ICRs and population will be made for each subsequent five year period with the data from the Demand refers to ICRs which generally indicate any occasion when there is a complaint or request for service (Exhibit 1 at paragraph 7). 4 As determined by Metropolitan Council Website - "Population by Community" Research & Statistics or agreed upon equivalent (Exhibit 5 at page 34). 8 immediately preceding five year period. Each factor shall be assigned a weight of 33Y:J% and the net difference, if any, shall be utilized to adjust the continuing payment allocations in paragraph 1 above. 3. Each Member City shall fund the SLMPD the full amount of the allocation pursuant to the terms of the JPA and this Order. Dated: fR(L( D0 BY THE PANEL: J~l~ ~em~. ~....:...~.S~- Man nne D.

Short Dorsey & Whitney 50 South Sixth Street Minneapolis, Minnesota 55402 Re: The Arbitration of the Allocation of Operating Costs of Providing Police Services to the Member Cities of the South Lake Minnetonka Police Department Dear Ms. Short and Messrs. Gilbert and Lindberg: I am writing on behalf of the SLMPD Member City Attorneys to seek clarification of the June 1,2006 Findings of Fact and Order issued in the above-referenced matter. We seek clarification of two portions of the Order. First, do the percentage figures in paragraph 1 apply to what were referred to in paragraph 18 of the Findings as the SLMPD "operating budget contributions" (which do not include the police facility debt service), or the SLMPD "total budget"? Second, do the funding formula adjustments in paragraph 2 result in a shift, beginning in 2012, to a formula based purely on the tax capacity, population, and ICR statistics, or are the 2011 tax capacity, population, and ICR statistics merely used to adjust the formula set out in paragraph 1 of the Order to the extent they differ from the 2005 tax capacity and ICR statistics and the 2004 population statistics? The clarification of this issue might be helped by an example that calculates the change in each city's share of the budget based on a hypothetical set of statistics. Bon. James H. Gilbert Hon.

Dawson, City Administrator/li\ June 22, 2006 (L!) Approval of Compensation Plan The City contracted with Labor Relations Associates, Inc., to prepare a compensation and classification study, with the goals of: . Updating position descriptions, to provide a uniform base for any changes; . Developing information and recommendations for any revisions to the City's levels of pay (external labor market) and pay structure (internal relationships for compliance with the Minnesota Pay Equity); and . Changing the City's rigid tenure-based step system for salaries with a system that is designed to reward performance and provide flexibility for salaries at time of hire. This process has been lengthy in coming before the City Council, as it has had extensive involvement and multiple reviews by employees and supervisors. Council reviewed the draft of the report at work sessions on April 24 and May 22, and at the latter work session indicated a preference to implement the new compensation plan with one or two adjustments (July 1,2006, and January 1,2007, as identified in Appendix D of the final report,) to bring all position incumbents with at least five years' experience to the market wage. In the future, adjustments may be made to exceed the market wage (to a maximum of 10 percent) based on meritorious performance documented in performance reviews presented to and approved by the City Administrator. The Compensation Schedule encompasses the City's non-union employees. Compensation for the City's public works maintenance employees, who are organized and represented by the American Federation of State, County, and Municipal Employees (AFSCME), is set through a labor agreement. The salary structure for the non-union employees takes into account the wages for union employees for purposes of the Pay Equity Act.

This presents an overview of the study, including the methodology used to develop new job descriptions, a classification system, a compensation plan and the implementation plan for a new compensation program. Also contained are the job descriptions developed as part of this Study. This Study represents a thorough and comprehensive review of all aspects of the City's classification and compensation system. The recommendations offered in this Study will increase the market competitiveness of the City's compensation program and provide increased internal equity among City positions. Implementation of these recommendations will help the City attract new employees and assist in retaining current employees needed to meet the City's service demands. Labor Relations Associates, Inc. expresses it's thanks to the City staff who completed Position Description Questionnaires. We also express our gratitude to you and the City's Management team for providing direction and feedback through the closing phases of the Study. Labor Relations Associates, Inc. appreciates the privilege of serving the City of Shorewood and hope that we may be of assistance to you in the future. Respectfully submitted, }lnn }lntonsen Ann Antonsen Consultant 1. Introduction The City of Shorewood, Minnesota, retained Labor Relations Associates, Inc. to conduct a Compensation Study in late 2004. The City's existing classification and compensation program was established many years ago. As a general rule, most organizations conduct new classification and compensation studies every five to seven years ensuring their ability to hire and retain qualified employees and that internal pay relationships are equitable. The City identified several objectives for this study, which included: . Evaluating the existing classification and compensation system . Developing a classification and compensation system that addresses internal equity and external market competitiveness . Developing administrative guidelines for implementation and ongoing maintenance . to provide a pay-for-performance structure to replace the current rigid tenure-based step system . to ensure that any changes in the compensation system would comply with the Minnesota Pay Equity Act This final report represents the culmination of the Compensation Study. It reflects significant City staff involvement, including their participation and attendance at orientation meetings, completion and submission of Position Description Questionnaires, and review of the job descriptions developed by Labor Relations Associates, Inc. by employees, department heads and City administration staff. New job descriptions include a brief description of the position, the essential functions performed, education and experience requirements, language and mathematical abilities, other knowledge, skills, and abilities, required licenses, certificates and registrations, and physical demands and working conditions in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act. Upon completion of the updated job descriptions each position was evaluated utilizing the HAY job evaluation system. The HAY system was developed approximately 40 years ago and is a system that is utilized world wide both in the public and private sectors. The HAY system is also the system used by the State of Minnesota. A comprehensive salary survey was also conducted as part of this Study. All City positions were included in the survey. Survey participants were selected based on geographic location, organizational structure, socio- economic conditions, and other relevant characteristics such as those organizations with which you compete for employees. Fifteen municipalities, listed below, were asked to participate in the survey: . City of Little Canada . City of Arden Hills . City of Mound . City of Waconia . City of Hugo . City of St. Anthony Village . City of Orono . City of Lake Elmo . City of Spring Lake Park . City of Rogers . City of Victoria . City ofWayzata . City of Deephaven . City of Watertown Only the cities of Rogers and Watertown did not participate in the survey; providing an excellent response rate of thirteen of the fifteen identified communities. Survey respondents were asked to provide information on only those City of Shorewood positions which they considered to be comparable to positions in their organizations. Therefore, survey respondents did not provide data for every position surveyed. During the course of the study, other communities were added for certain positions in order to collect more comprehensive data. For the position of Director of Public Works, the communities of White Bear Lake, Chanhassen, Columbia Heights and Hopkins were added. The cities of Chanhassen and Hopkins were included in the survey for the position of Finance Director. For the position of City Engineer the cities of Hopkins, Prior Lake and Savage were included. 2. Methodology Labor Relations Associates, Inc. used the following methodology to develop a compensation system for the City of Shorewood: 1. Meetings were held with the City Administrator to a establish a working relationship, review of current policies and practices relating to the City's existing pay practices, and obtaining available data on the programs and materials currently in use. These meetings also provided an opportunity to discuss the City's goals in adopting a compensation system for City employees. 2. An employee orientation meeting was conducted explaining the study process and to answer questions from employees. This meeting also provided an opportunity for employees to voice concerns and have input into the study. 3. All employees received Position Description Questionnaires (PDQ's) and instructions. All employees were encouraged to participate in the study by using the PDQ to describe their job duties and responsibilities. Each employee's supervisor reviewed the completed form for accuracy and completeness and provided any additional information they felt was relevant to the position. City employees were requested to complete the entire form ensuring information was available to develop new and updated job descriptions which would also meet the federal requirements under the Americans with Disabilities Act. 4. Each PDQ was reviewed and preliminary job descriptions were prepared. The preliminary job descriptions were submitted to the City for review and comment. Finalized job descriptions were then prepared incorporating any requested changes, additions and deletions. 5. Upon completion of the job descriptions, positions were then evaluated utilizing the HA Y Management Consultants job evaluation system. Factors that Hay utilizes in evaluating positions are: Know How, Problem Solving (Mental Effort) Accountability and Working Conditions. A more comprehensive description is attached as Appendix A. 6. Salary data for each position was collected. Survey recipients were asked to provide the minimum, maximum and actual salaries for each position. Information was also gathered on years to maximum, number of steps if utilized, information regarding longevity, merit or performance pay, FLSA status, and any additional compensation. 7. Using the salary data supplied by comparable government organizations and the results of the HA Y job evaluation system, a new wage schedule was created for each non-union position. 8. Guidelines for implementation and ongoing administration of the compensation program were developed. These guidelines provide for annual adjustments to the salary schedule ensuring that the City's pay scale stays current with changing economic and market conditions. The guidelines also provide for annual salary adjustments based on employee performance that meets or exceeds job expectations. 3. FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS Developing a classification system and compensation program involves the analysis of substantial quantities of data collected from employees, supervisors, comparable employers and the City. We have evaluated the City's existing compensation program based on our analysis of the study data and the survey results. Using this information, we have developed a compensation program for the City of Shorewood which is described below. a. Evaluation of the Current Compensation Program Discussions with City personnel and a review of current compensation data indicates that employees of the City of Shorewood are under-compensated in relation to other comparable organizations. Other findings indicate a wage problem demonstrated by: . Concerns about the potential for employee turnover because employees choose to leave the City to take higher paying jobs with other employers . City departments experiencing difficulty hiring new personnel . City job classes with comparable responsibilities requiring comparable education and experience that are assigned to different pay ranges b. Pay Philosophy A pay philosophy guides the design of a compensation system and answers key questions regarding pay strategy. It generally takes a comprehensive, long term focus and explains the compensation program's goals and how the program supports the employer's long-range strategic goals. Without a pay philosophy, compensation decisions tend to be viewed from a short-term tactical standpoint apart from the organization's overall goals. Market competitiveness and internal equity are among the most important areas addressed in a pay philosophy. An organization's desired market position involves defining the market and identifYing where the organization wants to be positioned within that market. Market position should balance what it takes to attract new employees and to retain skilled employees (in other words, eliminating higher pay as the reason employees leave the organization) with the organization's financial resources. Internal equity expresses an organization's desire to provide comparable pay to job classes with comparable duties and responsibilities. In consultation with the City's Management Team, a pay philosophy was developed that establishes a compensation program based on individual employee performance as a key feature of this pay philosophy. Therefore, we have emphasized references to performance in the pay philosophy discussion. As part of this Study, it is recommended that the City consider these concepts in the adoption of a formal pay philosophy: . Providing fair and equitable rates of pay to employees . Defining the City's market area . Developing a system that establishes a "market rate" for each position and states the minimum wage and maximum rates that the City will pay individuals within a job class . Establishing rates of pay that allow the City to compete successfully for new employees within its market area . develop a system that can reward continuously above-average performance by paying employees above market-rate wages . Establishing a market position that is fiscally responsible with public resources . Ensuring that pay rates for existing employees are based on individual performance that meets or exceeds expectations and reflects changing economic conditions . Developing a pay system that allows employees to progress through the pay range as long as their performance consistently meets expectations . Developing pay administration policies and procedures that ensure their consistent application between departments . Ensuring that the compensation program is understandable to employees, managers, the City Council, and the public c. Defining and Evaluating Positions City employees completed individual Position Description Questionnaires (PDQ's). Supervisors reviewed the PDQ's and provided infonnation for each position. Employees and supervisors both responded to questions regarding working conditions and the physical requirements of each job in compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA). Based on this data, new job descriptions were developed for each position. Job descriptions were distributed to City employees and their supervisors for review and comment. With the completion of the job descriptions, we utilized the HAY Management Consultants job evaluation system, to review and rate each City position. The factors considered in determining the relative value of classifications are: Know- How . Problem Solving (Mental Effort) . Accountability Working Conditions A listing of the job evaluation points can be found in Appendix B. d. Developing A Salary Schedule The process of developing a salary schedule draws substantially from market data. This data is obtained by conducting a survey of other comparable employers within the City's defined market. Respondents are asked to provide information about the structure oftheir pay plans, the minimum, maximum and actual salary rates of positions, years to maximum, number of steps, and information on additional compensation if relevant. Survey Results. The salary survey included a series of questions designed to obtain information on a variety of pay practices. All respondents provided information on their pay plans. A salary survey was conducted using data from comparable employers in the region. The survey included all positions in the City. A general summary of survey results appears in Appendix C. For some positions we did not receive a sufficient number of responses to use the data in the Study or those received were inconsistent with other information provided. A review of the survey information indicates that the majority of City positions, 13 out of 20 surveyed, are paid significantly below comparable organizations. Designing the Salary Schedule. The recommended pay plan was designed by establishing a compensation schedule with a minimum, a market rate and a maximum salary rate. The minimum wage rate is 76% of the market rate and the maximum is 110% of the market rate. The market rate of each pay grade generally corresponds with the market rate identified by the salary survey. Because the pay plan was developed using 2005 data, the proposed minimum, market and maximum rates were increased by 3 percent consistent with metropolitan area market increases. The recommended 2006 compensation plan for City of Shorewood non- union employees can be found in Appendix D of this report. This recommended compensation plan is in compliance with the Minnesota Local Government Pay Equity Act. Based on knowledge of the City's operations, it is recommended that an open range plan be maintained. Maintaining an open range salary schedule that consists of minimum, market and maximum pay rates provides the City with the flexibility to compensate employees based on their individual performance. This pay plan will also serve as an important tool for aligning individual performance with organizational goals adopted by the City Council. Therefore, an established performance evaluation system is generally considered a prerequisite for successful implementation of an open range pay system. The City of Shorewood currently has in place a comprehensive performance evaluation system. An established performance evaluation includes ongoing training of the system ensuring that supervisors in all departments consistently apply performance standards. When compensation is based on performance, employees look for assurance that managers will honestly evaluate performance and not inflate ratings in order to obtain a higher salary for particular employees. Generally, such systems provide for a review by the City Administrator's Office to provide a mechanism that helps managers apply performance standards consistently for all employees. When pay is based on performance, the evaluation system often provides for reviews at six or 12 month intervals, so employees know how supervisors view their performance and have the opportunity to improve performance and their prospect for a pay increase. Employees who have satisfactory or better performance evaluations should expect annual wage increases above the normal economic of cost of living adjustment. 4. Implementing the Recommended Salary Plan a. Implementation To estimate implementation costs, we used employee salaries which became effective on July 1, 2005 supplied by the City for all departments, and making the following assumptions: . Recommended compensation program will be effective for the City's non-union employees January 1, 2006. . Implementation will begin to address both internal equity and marketability with other employers. There are several positions which are currently compensated significantly below comparable positions, some by as much as 29%. These positions will require a more substantial wage increase to address their comparability with other employers. In order to address these inequities it is recommended that the City make market wage adjustments for employees who have been in their positions for 5 years or longer. These market adjustments will be done in two phases, with 50% of the adjustment taking place on July 1,2006 and 50% of the adjustment on January 1,2007. The cost of this two phase adjustment is shown in Appendix D b. Ongoing Administration After initial implementation is achieved, the City will need to develop administration procedures that provide for annual salary adjustments based on market and economic conditions and adjustments that recognize individual performance. Employee Adjustments. Employees will move through the wage schedule based on performance factors. An employee hired at the minimum wage rate who maintains satisfactory performance will move from the minimum to the market wage rate in approximately 5 years. Those with above satisfactory performance will move through the wage schedule in a shorter time frame. Employees who maintain above satisfactory performance will move beyond the market rate in the wage schedule. Base adjustments. In 2007 and subsequent years it will be necessary for the City to adjust the salary schedules and grades based on cost of living and other factors such as recruitment. The City can establish a guideline for determining annual base adjustments. For example, the City could base it's adjustment on the Consumer Price Index (CPI). The City could also contact comparable jurisdictions to find out what percentage adjustment they are making to their pay scales as a second level of verification ofthe pay range adjustment. This would also ensure that the City maintains marketability among comparable regional organizations. If the CPI for example, is 2.5, a 2.5 percent increase would be applied to the wage rates of each pay grade. In addition, all employees with performance that meets or exceeds job expectations would receive the 2.5 percent increase applied to their base salary. By making this base adjustment to all employee salaries, the City ensures that employees will not fall behind the market. Performance adjustments. All non-union employee's progression through the pay grade is based on individual performance. Supervisors can recognize an employee's contribution to department and organizational goals through performance adjustments. With the ability to recommend performance adjustments, supervisors will have an important role in linking pay and performance. Performance adjustments will be determined based on the employee's annual performance review. The increase will be applied to the employee's base salary effective on the anniversary of his or appointment date to the current position. Appendix A COMPONENTS OF JOB EV ALUA TION In measuring the "size" of jobs, job evaluation assumes fully acceptable performance by jobholders. Job content information, as documented in job descriptions is evaluated in terms of four factors. These factors are: Know-How: The sum total of every kind of skill, however acquired, necessary for acceptable job performance. This includes: . The depth and breadth of work procedures and vocational/technical/professional knowledge and skills required of the job. . The managerial breadth of skills that are required for integrating and harmonizing different organizational units or functions. . The human relations skills required to directly interact on a person-to-person basis with others in order to produce the desired results. Problem Solving: The original "self-starting" thinking required by the job for analyzing, evaluating, creating, reasoning, arriving at and making conclusions. This includes: . The organizational and procedural parameters that guide or circumscribe the focus of thinking and freedom to think on the job. . The variety, uniqueness, and complexity of problems faced by the job. Accountability: The responsibility for action and for the consequences thereof; the measured effect of the job on end results. This includes: . The autonomy or discretion that ajob has in taking action and the personal or procedural controls that ajob follows. . The magnitude or impact that the job has on the organization; what the job works with (or on) and its overall cost/benefits to the organization. . The role the job has on impacting end results; whether the job has primary or shared responsibility for committing the organization to action or a contributory or ancillary role in supporting such action. Working Conditions: The conditions under which work must be done. This includes: . Physical Effort: Work requiring physical exertion. . Environment: Exposure to objectionable or noxious conditions. . Hazards: Exposure to factors involving risks of accident, personal injury, or personal health. The following are not considered in evaluation jobs: . The quality of your job performance . Your length of service . Your formal education or degree (unless ajob requirement) . How the job was evaluated in the past . The current rate of pay for the job . Marketability with other employers Appendix 8 CITY OF SHOREWOOD HAY JOB EVALUATION POINTS Job Classification City Administrator Director of Public Works Finance Director Planning Director City Engineer Director of Liquor Operations Deputy Clerk/Administrative Assistant Building Official Engineering Technician Assistant Planner Light Equipment Operator-Utilities-Lead Senior Accountant Assistant Liquor Store Manager Light Equipment Operator-Shop Technician Receptionist/Admin.
