Dear Mayor and City Council Members,
At a previous council meeting, I was instructed to develop wording for noise ordinance
signage. There should be slightly abbreviated wording for signs posted on roadways with
higher speed limits to make them easier to read while at the higher speeds. I would
suggest the following wording for most other areas within the city and on city streets:
Stillwater Welcomes You.
Please help us in keeping Stillwater quiet.
All motor vehicles must have mufflers.
Our noise ordinance is enforced.
.
Sincerely,
Captain Craig T. Peterson

funded through a $35,000 fire prevention and safety grant from the Department of
Homeland Security. Free smoke alarms are being distributed, with as many as 2,000 to

City Administrator Hansen asked the Council for approval of a disclosure, indemnity and
hold harmless agreement related to a house that, in the opinion of the City's Public
Works Director, was constructed on low property and could be a risk of flooding due to
the inadequacy of the local storm sewer drain. The certificate of occupancy was
withheld until the issue was resolved as the City did not want to assume any liability, he

said if the home should flood in the future. The City Attorney prepared an indemnie
agreement that provides for the homebuilder to disclose this information to any future
buyers and indemnify the City from all claims. Mr. Hansen said it was his

PUBLIC HEARINGS
Case No. ANN/06-02. This is the date and time for the public hearinq to consider a request
from Scott Junker for an annexation petition for a 2.3 acre parcel of property located at 12764
Boutwell Road in the AP. Aqricultural Preservation District, into the City of Stillwater. Notices
were mailed to affected property owners and published in the Stillwater Gazette on May 5,
2006.
Community Development Director Turnblad noted that both the Planning Commission
and Joint Board have considered the request. The Planning Commission recommended
approval based on Scott Junker's assurance that he would not make application for the
final plat until the Boutwell Road improvements, including sewer and water, reach his
property, sometime in late fall. The Joint Board also approved the request on a 3-1 vote,
he said. Mr. Turnblad said if the Council approves this request, it is staff's
recommendation that it be conditioned upon approval of the final plat before the
annexation actually takes effect.
.
Mayor Kimble opened the public hearing. No comments were received, and the hearing
was closed. Councilmember Milbrandt said this request appears to "fly in the face" of
the Council's previous stance on early annexation requests in this area. Councilmember
Milbrandt said the Council had wanted plans for the extension of Neal Avenue, Boutwell
Road improvements, and improvements to the Manning/Boutwell intersection to be in
the County's budget before annexations would be considered. He noted that other
properties in the area had been in line for consideration of annexation far longer than
Scott Junker's.
Motion by Councilmember Milbrandt to deny the annexation request; motion died for lack of a
second.
Councilmember Harycki noted that annexation is allowed if a parcel abuts City
properties. Mayor Kimble pointed out that the City, during the Orderly Annexation
Agreement proceedings, promised Township residents that they would not be annexed
against their will, but if their property is contiguous and adjacent to the City and they
wish early annexation, the City will not block that request. Councilmember Milbrandt
noted that the Orderly Annexation Agreement does not obligate the City to grant early
annexation requests - it allows such requests to be considered. Councilmember
Milbrandt also suggested that it is the Council's obligation to make sure that the City has
a reliable road system and traffic plan before granting such requests. Councilmember
Polehna called the question.
.
Motion by Councilmember Harycki, seconded by Councilmember Polehna to adopt
Resolution 2006-105, a resolution annexing land to the City of Stillwater Pursuant to the Joint
Resolution of the City and Town of Stillwater as to the Orderly Annexation dated August 16,
1996, conditioned that annexation not take effect until after final plat approval.

City Council Meeting - 06-10
May 16, 2006
Community Development Director Turnblad pointed out that Nos. 2-7 in the Public
Hearing portion of the meeting all related to the Millbrook development. He said some
last minute items had arisen concerning access on Highway 96, as well as trail approval
by the Watershed Districts. Therefore, he said the developer has requested that
consideration be delayed to a later date. Staff has suggested consideration be tabled
until June 20, 2006.
Motion by Councilmember Junker, seconded by Council member Harycki to table the Milbrook
items until June 20,2006.

Case No. ANN/06-03 This is the date and time to hold a public hearino to consider a reauest
from the City of Stillwater for an annexation into the City of Stillwater of a .36 acre parcel of
property located on Boutwell Road 328 feet southeast of the intersection of Neal Avenue for
the purpose of stormwater retention. Notices were mailed to affected property owners and
published in the Stillwater Gazette on May 5. 2006.
Community Development Director Turnblad explained that this is a low-lying parcel that
the Public Works Department would like to improve as a stormwater pond to
accommodate runoff from Boutwell Road as road improvements are being made.
During the public hearing at the Joint Board, he said it was pointed out that piece of
property was dedicated for park purposes. Therefore, it was recommended that as the
City does the Boutwell Road improvements, it provide an area at the parcel for passive
recreation, a bench or similar amenity. He said annexation is recommended with the
condition for the suggested improvement of the parcel.
Mayor Kimble opened the public hearing. No comments were received, and the hearing
was closed.

Community Development Director Turnblad explained that the Public Works .
Department is requesting annexation to get the roadway into the State Aid system so
that segment of the road can be upgraded at a later date using state aid money. The
Joint Board heard the request, held a public hearing, and approved the proposed
annexation, he said.

was closed.

UNFINISHED BUSINESS
Possible approval of Amended Report on 2006 Street Improvement Proiect for Street Liqhts
(Proiect 2006-02)
Interim Public Works Director Sanders said a neighborhood meeting had been held with.
residents of the Forest Hills area. One of the items discussed at the meeting was the
proposed streetlights. When the project was initially proposed, the intent was to install
eight streetlights, one at each intersection. At the public hearing, residents indicated a
desire to have more lights. As a result, five additional lights were added. At the
neighborhood meeting, residents indicated approval of the proposal for 13 total
streetlights, he said. Cost of the 13 lights is $61,000. As proposed, the eight lights would
be paid for by the City, with the cost of the additional five lights, $21,500, assessed to
property owners - a $277 assessment per lot.
Councilmember Junker said the neighborhood meeting was very well attended and
there was almost unanimous approval of the lighting plan put together by Mr. Sanders
and his team.
Motion by Council member Junker, seconded by Council member Polehna to adopt Resolution
2006-108, resolution accepting amended report on 2006 Street Improvement Project for Street

crowd management, the contribution level for police and firefighters last year stated "is
estimated at $34,200." This year, the contract language sets the contribution level at
"not to exceed $40,000." Also, a sentence was added making payment due on or before
Dec. 31,2006. In all other regards, with the exception of a couple of minor scrivener's
errors, the contract is the same as the previous agreement. Mr. Hansen said he would
recommend Council approval of the agreement.
.
Dave Eckberg, St. Croix Events/Lumberjack Days Festival Association, was present for
the discussion. Council member Milbrandt asked about a timeframe for having a
complete site plan available for review by the Police and Fire departments. Mr. Eckberg
said he thought a final plan could be completed within the next several weeks. Mr.
Eckberg said the only component to be completed is the location of the Stihl area.
Council member Milbrandt asked if the Stihl area would be outside the fenced-in beer
garden; Mr. Eckberg said it would be inside the fenced-in area. Council member
Milbrandt said it should be outside the beer area as the intent was to provide more
family-oriented activities, and he expressed concern about having kids' log rolling inside
the beer garden area. Councilmember Junker noted the entire north end of Lowell Park
will be fenced in, and as such part of the beer garden, but noted that beer sales will not
be congregated in one location. During discussion, it was noted that Police Chief
Dauffenbach has the authority to set the exact boundaries of the beer sales, according
to the agreement. Council member Milbrandt said he hoped when the final site plan is
submitted, it will have the children's area located as far away from beer sales as
possible. Mr. Eckberg said there is a possibility that the Stihl area may be moved to
south Lowell Park.
Motion by Councilmember Harycki, seconded by Councilmember Polehna to adopt
Resolution 2006-109, approval of 2006 Lumberjack Days Agreement, as well as the City's
$5,000 contribution for fireworks pulled from the Consent Agenda earlier in the meeting.

NEW BUSINESS
Possible approval of special event - Rumble on the Deck - July 13. 2006 - FreiQht House
City Administrator Hansen said this would be the second year of the event. Last year,
the event caused no problems for the City that he was aware of. He said the request
had been reviewed by the Parking Commission, which recommended approval with the
same $300 fee for the use of the parking lot. He noted the event is held in mid-week so
it doesn't conflict with the prime demand for parking. Police Chief Dauffenbach
reiterated that there were no issues with the event last year.
.
Motion by Council member Junker, seconded by Council member Polehna, moved approval of
the requested special event. All in favor.

Possible a roval of feasibilit re ort and callin for hearin
Interim Public Works Director Sanders said the project is related to last summer's algae
bloom at Lake McKusick. As a result of the algae growth, the City commissioned a
study by Bonestroo consultants. The study concluded that because McKusick is a
shallow, urban lake, vigorous plant growth should be expected. The study and
subsequent meeting with neighboring residents concluded the best way to manage the
growth and preserve lake quality is by harvesting of the algae. He said the algae growth
is already occurring this year, with about one-third of the Lake affected. A feasibility
study has been completed, and it is estimated the cost of harvesting the algae would be
about $31,000. That cost assumes full coverage of the Lake, which probably won't be
the case, so the actual cost will likely be lower than the $31,000. The proposed area to
be assessed includes properties adjacent to the Lake and those with a view of the Lake,
he said. Seventy-two properties are included in the proposed assessment area, which
would result in an assessment of $215 per parcel. Mr. Sanders said staff had talked with
the DNR regarding the possible requirement for a boat permit. He said the DNR has
indicated a permit would not be required if certain conditions are met, for example,
limiting the length and width. Also, he said, the DNR has no regulations regarding the
removal of algae, so the City would remove 100 percent of the growth at one time,
rather than doing the removal in stages. The harvesting would be contracted out, h e
said.
Councilmember Milbrandt asked whether the harvesting would have to be done on an .
annual basis. Rich Brasch of Bonestroo said he would not expect the same magnitude
of problem every year as was experienced in 2005. However, he said there will likely be
some amount of filament growth every year. He said it would be important to set
expectations regarding harvesting, that this is a trial approach, so residents don't expect
that this is a permanent approach to be conducted on an annual basis. Council member
Junker asked about the optimal time for doing the harvesting. Mr. Brash said the
harvesting could be done any time between June and August, but he said it would be
good to have the right weather conditions to get as much of the algae on the surface as
possible when the harvesting is done. Councilmember Harycki asked about other City
lakes and said he would like to see an overall approach for dealing with similar
problems on all the lakes. Council member Milbrandt agreed with the need to look at
other options/alternatives, suggesting that the harvesting is a Band-Aid approach.
Motion by Council member Milbrandt, seconded by Councilmember Harycki to adopt
Resolution 2006-110, resolution receiving report and calling hearing on McKusick Lake Water
Quality Management Project (Project 2005-11 ).
Councilmember Polehna said he could not support the expenditure of City money for
harvesting of a lake that has very limited public access and at the same time not look at
the rest of the City and other lakes. Councilmember Harycki said he viewed this project
as an experimental project, but agreed that the City ought to have a comprehensive
plan for other City lakes. Mayor Kimble noted that half of the cost of the project would .
be assessed to benefiting property owners. Mayor Kimble also noted that the action

Possible approval of Roval Oaks final plat
Community Development Director Bill Turnblad explained the project, located on
Greeley Street at Curve Crest, would involve an eight-building, 20-lot subdivision, he
said the final plat is consistent with the preliminary plat approved several months earlier,
and final approval is recommended with the nine conditions and development
agreement.
Council member Junker asked whether this included the stop light at the Greeley/Curve
Crest intersection. Mr. Turnblad responded that this approval is for the final plat only.
Interim Public Works Director Sanders responded that the main access to the site is at
the controlled intersection, so access into and out of the property should not be a
problem.
Motion by Council member Polehna, seconded by Councilmember Harycki to adopt
Resolution 2006-111, approving a final plat and development agreement for property located
at 1749 South Greeley said plat to be known as Stillwater Town Office (Royal Oaks).

COMMUNICATIONS AND REQUESTS
Richard Huelsmann and Bill Hickey of the Stillwater Public Library Board of Trustees
were present to discuss the issue of the possible addition of steps/trail connection to the
library construction/renovation project. City Administrator Hansen reported that the
estimated cost has come down to about $164,000, with some contingency costs that
mayor may not be used, so the cost might be even lower. Mr. Hickey said since the last
discussion on this issue, the proposal has been revised to change the retaining wall
from poured-in-place concrete to a modular block product. The steps themselves, he
said, would still have to be poured-in-place concrete. The use of modular block will
necessitate two additional retaining walls, but also enhance the ability for landscaping,
he said. The iron railing would match the railing on the terrace. Mr. Hickey noted the
estimate includes $7,800 in contingency, which they are pretty confident won't be
expended. Mr. Huelsmann noted that some adjustments in the north retaining wall had
also been made to accommodate concerns of a neighboring property owner. There was
discussion about the amount of the bid. Mr. Huelsmann and Mayor Kimble spoke of the
challenges and constraints presented by the site that add to the cost.

TO:

FROM:
RE:
Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Stillwater and the AFSCME
(Local 517) Bargaining Unit
Back2:round
The attached Memorandum of Understanding has been negotiated with the AFSCME unit to
establish language applicable to the promotion of John Nobles, Asst. Building Inspector to
Building Inspector.
The City Charter does allow the City Administrator to promote staff without approval from City
Council. However, because this is an amendment to a previous Labor Agreement, it is coming
before the Council, as all contracts need Council approval.
Recommendation
Staff recommends the City Council adopt the attached resolution approving the Memorandum of
Understanding.
RESOLUTION NO. 2006 - 117
APPROVING MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING
BETWEEN THE CITY OF STILLWATER AND
LOCAL 517 COUNCIL NO.5 OF THE
AMERICAN FEDERATION OF
STATE, COUNTY AND MUNICIPAL EMPLOYEES, AFL-CIO
BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Stillwater, Minnesota that the
attached Memorandum of Understanding between the City of Stillwater and Local 517
Council 5 of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, AFL-
CIG in regard to the application of the AFSCME Labor Agreement (January 1, 2004 -
December 31, 2006), Article 11.6 to John Nobles' promotion to Building Inspector.
Adopted by the City Council this 6th day of June 2006.

MEMORANDUM
OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN
THE CITY OF STILLWATER,
AMERICAN FEDERATION OF STATE, COUNTY AND MUNICIPAL EMPLOYEES,
AFL-CIO, COUNCIL NO.5, LOCAL 517
AND BARGAINING UNIT MEMBER JOHN NOBLES.
SUBJECT: APPLICATION OF AFSCME LABOR AGREEMENT(January 1,
2004 - December 31, 2006), ARTICLE 11.6 TO JOHN NOBLES'
PROMOTION TO BUILDING INSPECTOR
APPLICABILITY: The provisions of this Agreement apply only to John Nobles and his
promotion to the Building Inspector classification.
WHEREAS: Article 11.6 of the 2004 - 2006 Labor Agreement states, "In the
event an employee is promoted to a higher classification, the
employees compensation shall be increased by 5% to the next
highest step of the higher classification;
AND WHEREAS: A promotion of John Nobles from the 3-year Step of Assistant
Building Inspector ($3,673/month) to the 6-month Step
($3,848/month) of Building Inspector is less than the 5% set forth in
Article 11.6, by the minimal amount of $8.65/month;
STATEMENT OF UNDERSTANDING:
Given the above, the Union, John Nobles and the City agree that
the $8.65/month shortage does not require step placement on the
1-year Step for Building Inspector.
Rather, the $8.65/month shall be added to the 6-month Step
amount for just this instance for Mr. Noble's promotion. Therefore,
Mr.. Nobles shall be paid $3,856.65/month rather than
$3,848/month for the 6-month Step.
Mr. Noble's promotion to the Building Inspection classification shall
be effective as of May 1, 2006, and he shall serve a probationary
period of 12 months.
On November 1, 2006, after having served six months in the
classification of Building Inspector, Mr. Nobles will be paid at the 1-
year Step ($4,074/month) in accordance with the Labor Agreement.

This Memorandum of Agreement is based upon the unique
circumstances of the present case and shall not constitute a
precedent with respect to any other claim, grievance or dispute
arising between the City and the Union or any member of the
bargaining unit covered by the collective bargaining agreement
between the City and the Union.
SAVINGS:
All other terms of the Labor Agreement shall be in full force and
effect.

RATE PLAN
The following Monthly and Nonrecurring Rates ("Rates") for Service reflect the Rates currently in effect in the Tariff. Custom
understands the actual Rates will be the Rates in effect in the Tariff on the first date of installation of Service, or for existing Service,
the date the service order is completed by Owest. Customer will also pay Owest all applicable taxes, usual and customary surcharges,
and all government imposed fees and charges that relate to the Service or installation rendered hereunder, excluding the Private Line
Surcharge, if Customer qualifies, and if that box is appropriately checked on this Acknowledgment.
Total Monthly Rate: $244.90 as of 05/19/2006 Total Nonrecurring Rate: $0.00 as of 05/19/2006
Customer has selected a Pricing Plan ("Plan") which protects the Monthly Recurring Rate from Owest initiated Rate increases for thirty
six months ("Plan Term"). Customer understands that if Customer disconnects Service, in whole or in part, prior to the completion of
the Plan Term, the Tariffs termination liability charges may apply. If Customer: (a) cancels an order for Service prior to the date
Service is available for use; or (b) is unable to accept Service within 30 business days after the original service date, the Tariffs
cancellation charges may apply.
Customer has chosen a Plan based on a specific term commitment and as such understands the rates provided herein are based
upon Customer completing an entire Plan Term for the subject Service; therefore, ANY ADDITIONS TO SERVICE WILL REOUIRE A
NEW ACKNOWLEDGMENT FORM DESIGNATING THE APPLICABLE PLAN TERM.
Any dispute arising out of, or relating to, this Acknowledgment will be settled by arbitration to be conducted in accordance with the
Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services ("JAMS") Comprehensive Arbitration Rules. The Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. Sections
1-16, not state law, will govern the arbitrability disputes. The Acknowledgment will otherwise be governed by the laws of the state
where Service is provided, without regard to its choice of law principles; provided however, that Service may also be subject to the
Communications Act of 1934, as amended. The costs of the arbitration, including the arbitrator's fees, will be shared equally by the
parties; provided, however, that each party will bear the cost of preparing and presenting its own claims and/or defenses (including its
own attorneys' fees). The venue for arbitration will be designated by the party not initiating the action with the exception of any billing
collection disputes, which will be conducted in a location in Denver, Colorado. The venue location designated must be in a
metropolitan area in which JAMS offers its dispute resolution services. A single arbitrator engaged in the practice of law, who is
knowledgeable about the subject matter of the Acknowledgment, will conduct the arbitration. The arbitrator is bound to apply and
enforce the terms of the Acknowledgement. The arbitrator's decision will be final, binding, and enforceable in a court of competent
jurisdiction. If a party is required to enforce compliance with this Section (including nonpayment of an award), then the non-complying
party must reimburse all of the costs and expenses incurred by the party seeking such enforcement (including reasonable attorneys'
fees).

We are working with three homeowners (listed below) who are opening up their gardens
four our annual St. Croix Garden Tour. We do not have written documentation oftheir
permission, but plans for the tour have been well-established through countless meetings
and preparations.
.
As for signs, our primary signs will be placed on the property of the homeowners, with
their permission. We plan to place the remaining directional signs on public sidewalk
grass strips and median accesses where possible. If there is a need for signs to be placed
on private property, we will ask verbal permission of the homeowner where applicable.
Stillwater homeowners involved in St. Croix Garden Tour:
Garden #4: Mary & David Ruch:
Garden #5: Paulette & Larry Lappi -
Garden #6: Meg Capra Bader & Thomas Bader -
Thanks for your attention. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Board of Water Commissioners
of the City of Stillwater
Stillwater, Minnesota
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Board of Water Commissioners, a
component unit of the City of Stillwater, as of and for the years ended December 31,2005 and 2004, as
listed in the table of contents. These basic financial statements are the responsibility of the
Commission's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these basic financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with U.S. generally accepted auditing standards. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above, present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Board of Water Commissioners, a component unit of the City of Stillwater as of
December 31,2005 and 2004, and the results of operations and its cash flows for the years then ended
in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The management's discussion and analysis as listed in the table of contents is not a required part of the
basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by U.S. generally accepted
accounting standards. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of
inquiries of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required
supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it.
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements taken as a
whole. The supplementary schedules of operating expenses as listed in the table of contents as
supplementary information are presented for purposes of additional analysis and are not a required part
of the basic financial statements. Such information has been subjected to the auditing procedures
applied in the audit of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated, in all material
respects, in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

additions in the Boutwell Road and Liberty in 2005 and North Hill and Settler Glen during fiscal year
2004. The additions consist of water mains, hydrants, valves and other apparatus. During fiscal year
2004, a new 8" water main was installed which runs north on Highway 95 from Elm Street to the railroad
bridge in the Dutchtown area of Stillwater. The new water main replaced an existing 6" water main at a
cost of approximately $205,000.
Siqnificant Transactions
Fiscal year 2005 was very comparable in the amount of water pumped. During fiscal 2005, .
approximately 723,991,000 gallons were pumped compared to 721,131,000 pumped during fiscal 2004.
There were no rate changes during fiscal year 2005.

BudQetary HiQhliQhts
The Commission adopts an annual Operating Budget. Because of its enterprise nature, the budgets are
not operated as statutory budgets. The budget results are reviewed monthly and are used as a financial
management tool.
A summary of the 2005 and 2004 Budget Analysis is presented in Table A-3.
Table A-3
Condensed Budget Analysis
2005 2004
Bud~et Actual Budget Actual
Operating Revenues $ 1,113,200 $ 993,351 $ 1,168,000 $ 964,527

Total Change in Net Assets $ 174.300 $ 237.862 $ 278.000 $ 1.252.916
. Fiscal year 2005 operating revenues were less than expected mainly due to higher levels of rain
received during the summer months than anticipated which resulted in less pumping. Other income was
significantly higher than budgeted. The Commission received $76,448 in developer contributed
watermain extensions which are included other revenue in the financial statements. Fiscal year 2004
operating expenses were lower than expected mainly due to no significant repairs that were needed.

The Commission made capital asset additions to utility plant in the amounts of $256,476 and
$1,459,921 in fiscal years 2005 and 2004, respectively. Depreciation expense was $348,880 and
$336,319 in fiscal years 2005 and 2004, respectively.
The Commission did not issue any new long-term debt during fiscal years 2005 or 2004. Payments were
made in fiscal years 2005 and 2004 in the amount of $90,000 on the current portion of principal due on
existing long-term debt. All outstanding long-term debt is issued on behalf of the Commission by the
Stillwater City Council and is backed by a pledge of net revenues of the Commission.
Other Financial Information, Next Year's BudQet and Rates
The Board of Water Commissioners has determined that there will be a change in rates for fiscal year
2006. Additionally, the Board is in the preliminary stages of planning the drilling of a new well which
started in fiscal year 2005 and be completed in 2006. Cost estimates could run as high as $1,000,000
depending on extent of construction related to the well.

BOARD OF WATER COMMISSIONERS
A COMPONENT UNIT OF THE CITY OF STILLWATER
NOTES TO THE BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED DECEMBER 31,2005 AND 2004
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Or~anization and Operation
The Board of Water Commissioners is a component unit of the City of Stillwater, created and
prescribed by the City Charter. The purpose of the Commission is to account for the
distribution of water services to the residents of the City. The City Council appoints members
of the Commission and maintains annual budgetary controls over commission-delegated
financial activities. The financial statements presented here are also included in the basic
financial statements of the City of Stillwater.
The accounting policies of the Board of Water Commissioners conform to U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.
Financial Reportin~ Entity
The Commission's basic financial statements include all funds, departments, agencies,
boards, commissions, and other organizations over which Commission officials exercise
oversight responsibility.
Component units are legally separate entities for which the Commission (primary
government) is financially accountable, or for which the exclusion of the component unit
would render the financial statements of the primary government misleading. The criteria
used to determine if the primary government is financially accountable for a component unit
include whether or not the primary government appoints the voting majority of the potential
component unit's governing body, is able to impose its will on the potential component unit,
is in a relationship of financial benefit or burden with the potential component unit, or is
fiscally depended upon by the potential component unit.
Based on these criteria, there are no organizations considered to be component units of the
Commission.
Measurement Focus and Basis of Accountin~
The accrual basis of accounting is used by the Commission. Under this method, revenues
are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when the related fund liability is
incurred. The Commission applies only those applicable pronouncements of the Financial
Accounting Standards Board issued on or before November 30, 1989 in accounting and
reporting for its proprietary operations.
The financial statements of the Commission have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) as applied
to governmental units. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the
accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financials
reporting principles. The GASB has issued a codification of governmental accounting and
financial reporting standards. This codification and subsequent GASB pronouncements are
recognized as U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for state and local governments
that have implemented GASB Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements - and
Management's Discussion and Analysis - for State and Local Governments. This financial
report has been prepared in conformity with GASB Statement No. 34.

NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Utility Plant. Property. and Equipment
Utility plant, property, and equipment are recorded at cost, or in the case of contributions, at
fair market value at the time received. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line
method over the assets' estimated useful lives, ranging from five to fifty years.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash equivalents are defined as short-
term, highly liquid investments that are both:
A. Readily convertible to known amounts of cash, or
B. So near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because of
changes in interest rates.
The Commission's policy considers cash equivalents to be those that meet the above criteria
and have original maturities of three months or less.
Cash and cash equivalents consist of checking and savings accounts and cash on hand.
.
Accounts Receivable
It is management's judgment that losses from uncollectible customer receivables, if any, will
be immaterial; therefore, no allowance for doubtful accounts is reflected in the financial
statements. All accounts receivable are uncollateralized.
Inventories
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first-in, first-out method) or market.
Net Assets
Net assets represent the difference between assets and liabilities in the financial statements.
Net assets invested in capital assets, net of related debt consists of capital assets, net of
accumulation depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balance of any long-term debt used
to build or acquire the capital assets. Net assets are reported as restricted in the financial
statement when there are limitations imposed on their use through external restrictions
imposed by creditors, grantors, laws or regulations of other governments.

PENSION PLANS
PUBLIC EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT ASSOCIA TlON
Plan Description
All full-time and certain part-time employees of the Commission are covered by defined
benefit pension plans administered by the Public Employees Retirement Association of
Minnesota (PERA). PERA administers the Public Employees Retirement Fund (PERF) which
is a cost-sharing, multiple-employer retirement plan. This plan is established and
administered in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 353 and 356.

NOTE 8 PENSION PLAN (CONTINUED)
Plan Description (continued)
PERF members belong to either the Coordinated Plan or the Basic Plan. Coordinated Plan
members are covered by Social Security and Basic Plan members are not. All new members
must participate in the Coordinated Plan.
PERA provides retirement benefits as well as disability benefits to members, and benefits to
survivors upon death of eligible members. Benefits are established by State Statute, and
vest after three years of credited service. The retirement benefits are based on a member's
highest average salary for any five successive years of allowable service, age, and years of
credit at termination of service.
Two methods are used to compute benefits for PERF's Coordinated and Basic Plan
members. The retiring member receives the higher of step-rate benefit accrual formula
(Method 1) or a level accrual formula (Method 2). Under Method 1, the annuity accrual rate
for a Basic Plan member is 2.2 percent of average salary for each of the first 10 years of
service and 2.7 percent for each year thereafter. For a Coordinated Plan member, the
annuity accrual rate is 1.2 percent of average salary for each of the first 10 years and 1.7
percent for each successive year. Under Method 2, the annuity accrual rate is 2.7 percent of
average salary for Basic Plan members and 1.7 percent for Coordinated Plan members for
each year of service.
.
There are different types of annuities available to members upon retirement. A single-life
annuity is a lifetime annuity that ceases upon the death of the retiree and no survivor annuity
is payable. There are also various types of joint and survivor annuity options available which
will be payable over joint lives. Members may also leave their contributions in the fund upon
termination of public service in order to qualify for a deferred annuity at retirement age.
Refunds of contributions are available at any time to members who leave public service, but
before retirement benefits begin.

The benefit provisions stated in the previous paragraphs of this section are current
provisions and apply to active plan participants. Vested, terminated employees who are
entitled to benefits but are not receiving them yet are bound by the provisions in effect at the
time they last terminated their public service.

Fundin~ Policy
Minnesota Statutes Chapter 353 sets the rates for employer and employee contributions.
These statutes are established and amended by the state legislature. The Commission
makes annual contributions to the pension plans equal to the amount required by state
statutes. PERF Basic Plan members and Coordinated Plan members are required to
contribute 9.10% and 5.10% respectively, of their annual covered salary. The Commission is
required to contribute the following percentages of annual covered payroll: 11.78% for Basic
Plan PERF members, and 5.53% for Coordinated Plan PERF members. The Commission's
contributions to the Public Employees Retirement Fund for the years ending December 31,
2005, 2004, and 2003 were $17,044, $17,303, and $17,008, respectively, equal to the
contractually required contributions for each year as set by state statute.
RISK MANAGEMENT
The Commission is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, or
destruction of assets; error or omissions; injuries to employees or natural disasters for which
the Commission carries commercial insurance. There have been no significant reductions in
insurance coverage from the prior year. Settlement amounts have not exceeded insurance
coverage for the current year or the three prior years.

REPORT ON MINNESOTA LEGAL COMPLIANCE
Board of Water Commissioners
of the City of Stillwater
Stillwater, Minnesota
We have audited the financial statements of the Board of Water Commissioners, a component unit of
the City of Stillwater, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2005, and have issued our report
thereon dated February 8, 2006.
We conducted our audit in accordance with U.S. generally accepted auditing standards and the
provisions of the Minnesota Legal Compliance Audit Guide for Local Government, promulgated by the
State Auditor pursuant to Minnesota Statute 6.65. Accordingly, the audit included such tests of the
accounting records and such other accounting procedures as we considered necessary in the
circumstances.
The Minnesota Legal Compliance Audit Guide for Local Government covers seven main categories of
compliance to be tested: contracting and bidding, deposits and investments, conflicts of interest, public
indebtedness, claims and disbursements, miscellaneous provisions, and tax increment districts. Our
study included all of the listed categories, except tax increment districts since no tax increment districts
have been established by the Board of Water Commissioners.
The results of our tests indicate that for the items tested the Board of Water Commissioners complied
with the material terms and conditions of the applicable legal provisions.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the members of the Board of Water
Commissioners, management and the office of the Minnesota State Auditor and is not intended to be
and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Members of the Board of Water Commissioners
of the City of Stillwater
Stillwater, Minnesota
We have audited the financial statements of Board of Water Commissioners of the City of Stillwater for
the year ended December 31, 2005, and have issued our report thereon dated February 8, 2006.
Professional standards require that we provide you with the following information related to our audit.
Our Responsibility under U.S. Generally Accepted Auditing Standards
As stated in our engagement letter dated December 3, 2004, our responsibility, as described by
professional standards, is to plan and perform our audit to obtain reasonable, but not absolute,
assurance that the financial statements are free of material misstatement and are fairly presented in
accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. Because an audit is designed to
provide reasonable, but not absolute assurance and because we did not perform a detailed
examination of all transactions, there is a risk that material misstatements may exist and not be
detected by us.
As part of our audit, we considered the internal control of the Board of Water Commissioners of the
City of Stillwater. Such considerations were solely for the purpose of determining our audit procedures
and not to provide any assurance concerning such internal control.
Other Information in Documents Containing Audited Financial Statements
Our audit opinion, the audited financial statements, and the notes to financial statements should only
be used in their entirety. Inclusion of the audited financial statements in a client prepared document,
such as an annual report, should be done only with our prior approval and review of the document.
Significant Accounting Policies
Management has the responsibility for selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. In
accordance with the terms of our engagement letter, we will advise management about the
appropriateness of accounting policies and their application. The significant accounting policies used
by the Board of Water Commissioners of the City of Stillwater are described in Note 1 to the financial
statements. No new accounting policies were adopted and the application of existing policies was not
changed during 2005. We noted no transactions entered into by the Board of Water Commissioners of
the City of Stillwater during the year that were both significant and unusual, and of which, under
professional standards, we are required to inform you, or transactions for which there is a lack of
authoritative guidance or consensus.

Accounting Estimates
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the financial statements prepared by management and are
based on management's knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions
about future events. Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their
significance to the financial statements and because of the possibility that future events affecting them
may differ significantly from those expected. Significant estimates in the financial statements for the
year ended December 31, 2005, include depreciation, which is based upon estimated useful lives of
depreciable assets, the collectible amount of customer accounts receivable, and the dollar value of
developer contributed assets. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop the
estimate in determining that it is reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.
Audit Adjustments
For purposes of this letter, professional standards define an audit adjustment as a proposed correction
of the financial statements that, in our judgment, may not have been detected except through our
auditing procedures. An audit adjustment mayor may not indicate matters that could have a significant
effect on the Board of Water Commissioners of the City of Stillwater's financial reporting process (that
is, cause future financial statements to be materially misstated). In our judgment, none of the
adjustments we proposed, whether recorded or unrecorded by the Board of Water Commissioners of
the City of Stillwater, either individually or in the aggregate, indicate matters that could have a
significant effect on the Organization's financial reporting process.
.
Management did not identify and we did not notify them of any uncorrected financial statement
misstatements.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, professional standards define a disagreement with management as a
matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, concerning a financial accounting, reporting, or
auditing matter that could be significant to the financial statements or the auditor's report. We are
pleased to report that no such disagreements arose during the course of our audit.
Consultations with Other Independent Accountants
In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and
accounting matters, similar to obtaining a "second opinion" on certain situations. If a consultation
involves application of an accounting principle to the governmental unit's financial statements or a
determination of the type of auditor's opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our
professional standards require the consulting accountant to check with us to determine that the
consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge, there were no such consultations with other
accountants.
.
Issues Discussed Prior to Retention of Independent Auditors
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and
auditing standards, with management each year prior to retention as the Board of Water
Commissioners of the City of Stillwater's auditors. However, these discussions occurred in the normal
course of our professional relationship and our responses were not a condition to our retention.

of the City of Stillwater
Stillwater, Minnesota
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of the Board of Water
Commissioners of the City of Stillwater for the year ended December 31, 2005, we considered
its internal control in order to determine our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing
our opinion on the financial statements and not to provide assurance on the internal control.
However, we noted certain matters involving internal control and its operation that we consider
to be reportable conditions under standards established by the American Institute of Certified
Public Accountants. Reportable conditions involve matters coming to our attention relating to
significant deficiencies in the design or operation of the internal control that, in our judgment,
could adversely affect the Board of Water Commissioner's ability to initiate, record, process,
and report financial data consistent. with the assertions of management in the financial
statements.
REPORTABLE CONDITIONS
Seqreqation of Duties
In any system of accounting control, one primary goal is adequate segregation of duties. The
Secretary/Manager is basically responsible for all areas of the accounting cycles; therefore, an
adequate segregation of duties and responsibilities is not present. The basic premise of proper
segregation of duties is that no one person should have access to both physical assets and the
related accounting records, or to all phases of a transaction.
Due to the Commission's limited number of office personnel, segregation of the accounting
functions that is necessary to ensure adequate internal accounting control may not be possible.
This is not unusual in an operation the size of the Commission; however, the Board of Water
Commissioners should constantly be aware of this condition and realize that the concentration
of duties and responsibilities in a limited number of individuals is not desirable from an
accounting point of view. This area should be reviewed periodically and consideration given to
improving the segregation of duties. In making this review, it is most important to consider the
benefit derived as weighed against the cost of the improvements.
A material weakness is a reportable condition in which the design or operation of one or more
of the internal control components does not reduce to a relatively low level the risk that errors or
fraud in amounts that would be material in relation to the financial statements being audited
may occur and not be detected within a timely period by employees in the normal course of
performing their assigned functions.
Our consideration of internal control would not necessarily disclose all matters in internal control
that might be reportable conditions and, accordingly, would not necessarily disclose all
reportable conditions that are also considered to be material weaknesses as defined above.
However, the reportable condition described above is believed to be a material weakness.

APPLICANT: Chicago Dogs
REQUEST: Permission to Provide Concessions
For Adult Softball League Games
LOCATION: Lilly Lake Park
MEETING DATE: June 6, 2006
REVIEWERS: Police Chief, Fire Chief, Public Works Supervisor
Parks & Recreation Board
. PREPARED BY: Bill Turnblad, Community Development Director
.
Background
Mr. Bruce Chesin of Chicago Dogs has submitted a request to be permitted to sell
concessions from one of his company's trailers at Lilly Lake Park. A picture of the
trailer is included in the attached memo. If granted permission to do so, Mr. Chesin
would bring the trailer to Lilly Lake Park and set it up for each event. After the event
he would clean up the site and drive the trailer away.
Notes
· City Code Section 41-4, Subd. 14(8) states that peddlers and transient merchants
are not allowed to operate within a City Park except by permit from the Parks &
Recreation Board.
· At their May 22, 2006 meeting, the Parks & Recreation Board considered Mr.
Chesin's request. On a 6-1 vote the board granted permission on a trial basis for
this year only, with two conditions. 1) Mr. Chesin must arrange with the Public
Works Department to pay for electricity used by the concession stand. 2) The
Police Chief should review the proposal. The board stated that the trial basis
sales of concessions would be allowed in Lilly Park this year during league
games only. Moreover the board made it clear that it is not interested in
Chicago Dogs
June 2, 2006
Page 2
allowing private concession sales in parks where there are no league ball games
being played. If the concession sales runs well and does not generate complaints
this year, the board would reconsider permission for next year at Lilly Lake Park.
· The Police Chief has reviewed the proposal and finds it acceptable.
Staff Recommendation
Since the private sale of concessions in public parks is a policy decision with fairly
broad implications, staff felt it prudent to bring the discussion to the City Council as
well as the Parks Board. Staff recommends that the City Council consider the request
and either affirm or overturn the Parks Board decision to grant Chicago Dogs approval
to sell concessions at Lilly Lake Park this year.

REQUEST:
Permission to Provide Concessions

lOCATION:

MEETING DATE:
May 22, 2006
PREPARED BY:
Bill Tumblad, Community Development Director
Background
Mr, Bruce Chesin of Chicago Dogs has submitted a request to be permitted to sell
concessions from one of his company's trailers at Lilly Lake Park. If granted permission
to do so, Mr. Chesin would bring the trailer to Lilly Lake Park and set it up for each
event. After the event he would clean up the site and drive the trailer back.
Analysis
City Code Section 41-4, Subd. 1 defines the proposal as "transient" merchandising. A
transient merchant needs to be licensed by the City Clerk. In addition, Subd. 14,(8) states
that peddlers and transient merchants are not allowed to operate within a City Park
except by permit from the Parks & Recreation Board.
Board members should consider at least the following issues when determining whether
to grant the requested permission:
· Has the City allowed similar requests in the past?
· Will there be any other concessions sold at Lilly Lake Park for adult softball
events?
· Is there an appropriate location for the trailer? One that does not interfere with
parking or traffic circulation? One that has electricity available? Is potable water
required?
Chicago Dogs
May 18, 2006
Page 2
· Should concession sales at Lilly Lake Park be restricted to the existing concessions
stand?
· What is the last date of the season that the concession trailer would be permitted
in the park?
Alternatives
The Parks & Recreation Board has several options:
1. Approve the permit as requested with whatever conditions the Board believes
are needed.
2, Deny the requested permit. A denial should be based upon specifically stated
findings of fact.
3. Table the request for more information.

Freight House - Rumble on the Deck
At the May 16th meeting, Council approved the special event - Rumble on the Deck
for the Freight House. It has been requested that they be allowed to fence in the
area that they will be using to allow the consumption of alcohol. I have talked with
Chief Dauffenbach and he does not foresee a problem allowing it if the area is fenced
off. The Freight House can not sell in the parking lot because their liquor license is
only for their premises. A temporary liquor permit (1-4 day) is only available to non-
profit organizations.
As with the Bikers In Need event, a consumption permit ($35.00) should be required
along with the Freight House continuing to work with the Police Department.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is the recommendation that the request be approved contingent upon a Permit to
Consume being issued and Freight House working with the Police Department
relating to this event.
ACTION REQUIRED:
Consider the request and provide staff with direction.

From: Ed Cain, LAI
Subject: Legislative Report: Stillwater Issues
1. Stage 3 Flood Control Federal Appropriation-$2 million
2. State Matching Fund-$250,OOO
3. Stillwater Armory on the DOD FDYP
Federal Issues: The Congress took our problem seriously when the Corps redirected
the $2 million appropriated for Stillwater to other projects. They passed legislation requiring
the Corps to get Congressional approval before funds are transferred between projects.
The Corps is now attempting to get back some of our funds, and, as a result of the new
Law, have to first get the approval of the Appropriations Committees first. They were
having trouble doing this, so I ask them to include the transfer back to Stillwater in the new
Appropriations Bill. Working with Representative Kennedy, we were able to get this done
in the House Bill
I will be back in Washington on June 5-7, to work on our $2 million appropriation request for
this year. I should have some information about the status of our request by the end of
next week. These funds will be used for the construction of Stage 3, currently scheduled for
the Spring of 2007. The St. Paul Corps office gets a D~ for communication on our project. I
will get a meeting set up with soon to get an update on their work. I believe it would be
good if any Council Members could attend. The design, plans, and specifications for the
project should be near completion.
State Request for Matching Funds: Mr. Hansen and I worked with Clayton to
complete and submit an application for $250,000 for the State match for the $2 million
Federal funds requested. These funds will be administered through the "Flood Mitigation
Grants Program" (FMG) by the DNA. The Bonding Conference Committee of the
Legislature increased the funds for FMG to $25 million this year, higher than both the House
and the Senate bill amount. Their will be ample funds available for Stillwater Stage 3 as
soon as Congress passed the Federal appropriation.
Stillwater Armory Status: After several years of work, the Stillwater Armory Project has
finally been included in the Department of Defense "Future Development Years Plan" know
as FDYP (pronounced Fidip.) While the current timing for the DoD~FDYP is scheduled for
FY 2011, the Nation Guard Headquarters made it clear that Congress can move the project
timing up just as long as we are on the future construction list. This is a very important step
for us, and we'll now begin to get it in line for construction in the 2007 budget year.
