MEETING DATE: January 8, 2008
RE: Public Restrooms in 227 N. Main Building
BACKGROUND
Last summer the Planning Commission, Heritage Preservation Commission and City
Council approved the final phase of the Maple Island Dairy redevelopment project.
The approved plans include demolition of the former hardware store and the
construction of a two story building. The ground level would be for commercial
space and the second floor for offices. This phase of the redevelopment is known as
the 227 N. Main Building.
On July 18, 2006 the City Council approved the vacation of a City parking easement
over the surface parking lot that is located next to the former hardware store.
Conditions of approval were:
1. "the developer agrees to meet with the City to discuss the potential of
providing a public restroom"; and
2. Filing of the vacation with the County would occur after the final building
plans were approved.
The minutes of the July 18, 2006 Council meeting state the following:
Councilmember Harycki noted the developer has been very responsive to input
and concerns in downsizing the project. Mr. Harycki did ask whether the
developer would consider inclusion of a public restroom, open during business
hours, in exchange for vacation of the easement. Vem Stefan, representing
Mainstream Development, said if the City were willing to partner with the
developer in providing the restroom facility, they would be willing to consider
that. Councilmember Junker asked Mr. Stefan for his definition of "partnering."
Mr. Stefan said they would be willing to talk about the suggestion. After
discussion, Councilmember Junker included the condition that the developer
').

,
agrees to meet with the City to discuss the potential of providing a public
restroom in his motion for approval of the vacation. Councilmember Polehna said
providing a public bathroom seems like a reasonable compromise for giving up
the parking easement and forgiving the requirement for another 86 parking
spaces.
On September 18, 2007 Mr. Stefan came before the Council to discuss the bathrooms.
The Council explained that they expected a proposal similar to what was provided in
the Stillwater Mills on Main project. This is to say that the restrooms provided for
the building tenants would be made available to the public during business hours.
Also, that there would be no cost to the City.
SPECIFIC PROPOSAL
Mr. Stefan proposes to provide restrooms to the public in the same fashion as is done
at Mills on Main. Details include:
· One restroom for men, one for women
· Restrooms would be located on the ground floor level and be accessible from
Main Street (and from tenant space as well)
· Exact location of restrooms to be determined when tenant space configuration
is known
· Restroom finishes and layout to be substantially similar to that shown in the
attachment
REQUEST
Mr. Stefan would like the City Council to consider and approve his public restroom
proposal.

MAINSTREAM DEVELOPMENT PARTNERSHIP
219 NORTH MAIN STREET
STILLWATER MN 55082
TO: CITY OF STILLWATER
DECEMBER 27, 2007
SUBJECT: 227 NORTH MAIN STREET DEVELOPMENT
ATT: BILL TURNBLAD
As a result of our meeting on December 5, 2007 with City Staff; Bill
Turnblad, Larry Hanson and David Magnason - City Attorney, it was
agreed that Mainstream Development LLC would provide space for two
(2) publicly accessed restrooms in the subject development.
We also determined that the following conditions would be met;
1. The restrooms would be located on the first/main floor,
2. the restrooms would have Main Street access,
3. the restrooms will be as depicted in the attached design
draft, and
4. the restroom finishes and equipment shall be as specified
in the attached design draft.
There remain however, as we discussed, several indeterminate conditions
that will require tenancy consideration$;
1. Exact location of the restrooms will be defined by tenancy
precedence, and
2. final orientation will be determined by mechanical and
economic considerations.
Th!$ proposal supercedes our proposal of September 18, 2007 and is
. intended'to satisfy the City Council's request for an acceptable
. al ternat;i ve.
If yon have any questions, do not hesitate to call.

December 18, 2007
STAFF REPORTS
Fire Chief Glaser provided an update on the Fire Department's response to a Mutual
Aid call to assist in responding to an explosion on the ylh floor of the King Plant.
Police Chief Gannaway provided an update on the motorcycle patrol. He noted the
patrol started at the end of May and ran through the beginning of November. He
provided statistics related to the productivity of the patrol, which he called "outstanding."
He stated the patrol was immensely popular with the community. Chief Gannaway also
provided an update on the commercial vehicle enforcement, which he said was very
successful; he stated inspectors from the State Patrol were very enthusiastic about the
project and hoped to continue the inspections/checkpoints. Councilmember Gag asked
if it would be possible to have the checkpoints conducted more frequently, rather than
once a month; Chief Gannaway said he could check into that possibility. Chief
Gannaway also suggested sending one or two of' fficers to the commercial vehicle
school. Councilmember Polehna suggested wo Washington County to utilize
their scales so the City could do weighing as Harycki noted the intent of the
vehicle inspections was an effort to reduce affic in the neighborhoods
adjacent to the downtown area, as well a g life of the bridge. The Mayor said
related to that effort, there had been talk il"1i;!f~m officer and engineering

City Attorney Magnuson told the Council that he had prepared a memo regarding the
property the City owns in Wisconsin. He noted that in the past the City has paid little
attention to the property, but recently became aware there have been some
encroachments on the property. He said the first step in determining possible actions to
deal with the encroachments was to determine the City's rights in another State,
whether the City has sovereign rights to the property as it would have in this State. Mr.
Magnuson said the Supreme Court in Minnesota and in federal law has determined that
if a State owns property in another State it does not have sovereign rights - it has only
the rights of a private corporation when it comes to dealing with the property. He
suggested the responsible thing to do in dealing with the encroachments would be to
have a survey done of the property to identify areas of encroachments along with an
effort to agree to boundaries if there is a slight variation; he also suggested there could
be an action taken in Wisconsin court to register the boundaries to prevent adverse
taking of the property in the future. He said if the Council wishes to proceed, staff would
obtain estimates for the cost of the survey and any legal action. There was discussion of
Page 2 of 10
City Council Meeting - 07-28 December 18, 2007
the debris on the site; Council member Nyberg asked Mr. Sanders to look into the cost
of cleaning up the site. It was consensus of the Council to proceed with getting the
estimates for a survey, possible legal action and cleanup.

Possible appointments to various boards and commissions
City Clerk Ward noted that a number of terms expire as of the first of the year. Openings
have been advertised in the newspaper and current members asked whether they
desire reappointment. She reviewed the openings and the requests for reappointment.
City Administrator Hansen noted that the Council could go through the new interview
process for each opening or could make reappointments as it desired. There was
discussion about the new interview process, with Councilmember Gag pointing out that
process was established during mid-term vacancies and the Council hasn't yet had to
deal with requests for reappointment. Mayor Harycki suggested that all new applicants
at least deserve an interview and suggested that interviewing current members who
have requested reappointment seems like the fair thing to do - treating all applicants
the same. There was a question as to whether the Council needed to interview
applicants in instances where there is only one applicant for one vacancy.
Council member Milbrandt suggested that since current members seeking
Page 4 of 10
City Council Meeting - 07-28 December 18, 2007
reappointment expect that process will be followed, continue that for this year but let all
boards/commissions know that next year's reappointment process will involve an
interview. There was a brief discussion about term limits.
Motion by Council member Milbrandt, seconded by Councilmember Nyberg, to adopt
Resolution 2007-247, appointments for various City Commissions, with the reappointment of
current members who have requested reappointment, appoint applicants when there is only
one applicant for a vacancy and go through the interview process in instances where there are
multiple applicants for a board opening.

Pavement Manaoement Presentation
Public Works Director Sanders t since 2001, every three years a study of City
stre~ts has been conductesL!,~ ra e s reets according to their condition, which is the
basIs for the 5-year CIP ~ r'!' rovement projects. He provided an overview of the
City street system and esults ased on street ratings in five categories. In the
most recent study, he bout 45 miles of streets were analyzed, with 15 miles
rated excellent, 13 . Ir, and 15 miles poor/worst. He highlighted areas that
will be concentra treet reconstruction projects for the next five years. He
noted that mill-a 'i,rojects may save a street from the need for a total
reconstruction pro r a number of years. He stated that this year $1.4 million is
budgeted for the stre roject, an amount that is increasing 10 percent for the next five
years. Mr. Sanders brought up the possibility of increasing the assessment rate as a
means of doing more street reconstruction; he also noted that the recommendation is
that all streets rated poor/worst be total reconstruction projects. He emphasized that the
current program/budget is not sufficient to keep up with the rate at which streets
deteriorate.
There was discussion about how to get more miles done each year. Several specific
streets, including Orwell Court, were mentioned as in need of reconstruction.
Councilmember Milbrandt noted that at one time the City assessed 100 percent for
street projects. City Attorney Magnuson pointed out the 100 percent assessment policy
was during the time of the sewer separation projects during the 1960s; in the 1970s, he
said, there was a law change which mandated that an actual increase in market value
must be shown to justify the amount of an assessment. Councilmember Milbrandt
suggested that in addition to increasing the budget for street reconstruction projects by
10 percent to reach the $2 million mark, the Council will have to grapple with increasing
Page 6 of 10
City Council Meeting - 07-28 December 18, 2007
the assessment rate from 50-50 to perhaps 70-30 over time. Mayor Harycki asked
about state funding; Mr. Sanders pointed out that the City has borrowed ahead on its
funding for state -aid roads and 2010 will be the first year there will be $300,000 in state
funding available again to do a state-aid road. City Administrator Hansen noted that the
Council had given him direction in the annual goal-setting session to look at the
assessment policy, and he would be developing a set of recommendations on that issue
for the Council's consideration. City Administrator Hansen stated that the (assessment
rate) issue is a politically and emotionally charged one, and probably the worst thing
that could happen would be to change the policy and then have a change in Council
and have the policy change again which would be totally unfair to the residents.
Councilmember Polehna asked whether there is a trail pavement management
program. Mr. Sanders said there is not such a program, but next year the City would be
looking at Long Lake trail.

Public Works Direc viewed possible projects that could be done as part of
the City's Lake M Ian presented by Joe Bischoff, Wenck at the December
3, 2007 meetin .\\Improvements related to Lily Lake and the recommendation
that total phospho e reduced by 150 pounds to meet state standards for Lily Lake.
One of the projects, t ospital ponds that were listed in the Lily Lake Water Quality
plan done in 1999 was to divert the water from Churchill and Churchill/Greeley
intersection to drain into Brick Pond. As part of the overlay project proposed for 2010-
11, Greeley Street it would include diversion of the storm sewer into the hospital ponds.
The Lily Lake parking lot improvements would be done in 2008, with the others
accomplished over the next five years. He also spoke to the recommendations for
monitoring of Lily Lake and Brick Pond and suggested that Brick Pond be added to the
monitoring agreement with Washington Conservation District.
Regarding Lake McKusick, Mr. Sanders noted that Mr. Bischoff, Wenck could not really
identify the source of the phosphorous pollution and the recommendation was to do
more monitoring to identify the source of the phosphorus loading. Mr. Sanders
suggested that the Water Conservation District could also be utilized to do this
monitoring, with a consulting firm hired to do the analysis and make recommendations.
He also referred to the Plan's recommendations regarding infiltration basins in the buffer
area and pointed out the City will have to work with other agencies, including the
Page 7 of 10
City Council Meeting - 07-28 December 18, 2007
Brown's Creek Watershed District, to determine what will be allowed under those
agencies' new regulations.
Mayor Harycki stated that during the presentation by Mr. Bischoff, it was suggested the
first priority should be to do the study/monitoring to determine the source of the pollution
which would identify what projects should be done and that maybe the money for the
Myrtle Street Dump cleanup could be used for that study to determine the source of the
problem. Councilmember Milbrandt noted the City had budgeted for harvesting of the
lake again and according to Mr. Bischoff continuing the harvesting of McKusick was
more of a band aid for McKusick and felt that the harvesting money should be used for
the study rather than harvesting the lake again. Mayor Harycki stated the harvesting
was done until there was a better understanding of what was happening to the lake. He
stated that today there is a better understanding of the problem and that it may be better
to put the weed harvesting money and spend it on the study rather than do something
cosmetic which weed harvesting is. He encourage staff to look at the cost of a study
and see if it can be done for less than $40,000 a en the Council can look for
possible funding sources, including the money for harvesting or roll-over
funds from the dump site cleanup. Mr. Sande ed out the Brown's Creek
Watershed had some money budgeted for t area. Mr. Sanders said he
could have an estimate of the cost for sa ring by mid-January.
Councilmember Nyberg also suggested ssible grant sources. Mayor
Harycki spoke of ways to educate th'abl ing the City newsletter and direct
mailings, regarding shoreline mana s. Councilmember Polehna spoke of
the condition of Long Lake and t us on that lake as well. Mr. Sanders
noted that the Watershed had rojects in the Long Lake watershed and
had taken the lead role in rega ke. Mayor Harycki stated that he was
surprised to learn that McK!J?~ick e's problem doesn't come from Long Lake but from
other sources that have y"feW rmined. Councilmember Polehna said he wanted
the public to be aware City as not forgotten about Long Lake and recognizes
the need to address t ' sell.
City Attorney Mag explained that the Zephyr owner had paid the mortgage owed
the City and the Cou needs to give direction for the Mayor and Clerk to sign the
mortgage satisfaction. Councilmember Milbrandt wondered if it would be possible to
sign the mortgage satisfaction and still maintain first-right-of-refusal on the Zephyr
depot. City Attorney Magnuson stated that the Zephyr owner has asked that the City
forgive the first-right-of-refusal on the depot now that the mortgage has been repaid, but
it would be possible to maintain that right if the Council so desired.
Motion by Councilmember Milbrandt, seconded by Councilmember Polehna to adopt
Resolution 2007-253, authorizing satisfaction of Zephyr mortgage and directing Mr.
Magnuson to retain first-right-of-refusal.

COUNCIL REQUEST ITEMS
Mayor Harycki informed the Council that the Parks Board has made a recommendation
that the City look into acquiring the Boom Site. Councilmember Nyberg, a member of
the Parks Board, said the Board is always interested in acquiring more parkland, but
more information is needed regarding the Boom Site. Mayor Harycki noted efforts would
be in cooperation with the Township to see how possible acquisition might come about
- whether it is joint acquisition or singular. The Mayor stated the Parks Board was
looking for direction from the Council, and suggested that the Council direct the Parks
Board Chair and Vice Chair form a sub-committee to discuss the matter with two
counterparts in the Township to start moving forward. Councilmember Milbrandt said he
would be in favor of exploring possible acquisition, but would also like input from Public
Works Director Sanders regarding annual maintenance costs.
Motion by Councilmember Nyberg, seconded by Mayor
acquisition of the Boom Site. All in favor.
cki to direct staff to explore the
Mayor Harycki said he was shocked at the linquent sewer bills and
suggested that now when there are aban ies, the City is in a complaint-
driven process regarding such propertie ed concern that should a wave of
foreclosures hit the City, the City not about property neglect issues.
Mayor Harycki suggested directing evelopment Director Turnblad to
explore what other cities are doin t the issue. Councilmember Nyberg said
in his experience, cities genera ns to the property owner and in a
foreclosure situation to the ban ember Polehna suggested that perhaps the
City needs to be a little mO~~,ag Ive about enforcement, more proactive rather than
reactive. Councilmemberof~~" gested the issue was not just with foreclosures,
but property maintenan who e. Mayor Harycki asked Mr. Turnblad to do some
research in the next s 0 s and come back with some ideas on how to deal
with the issue.
Councilmember lifl5inted out that the City has an ordinance that prohibits
sandwich boards I downtown area, but many shops are utilizing sandwich boards.
He proposed directin aff to send a letter to business owners in the historic district
reminding them of the ordinance and informing them the ordinance will be enforced in
the spring. Mayor Harycki said he thought the Chamber was dealing with this issue and
was going to come before the Council with recommendations on signage; he suggested
contacting the Chamber to find out where they are in addressing the problem.
Councilmember Milbrandt said until the Chamber comes forward with a proposal, he
would like to see the ordinance fully enforced. Councilmember Nyberg said while he
thought the ordinance should be enforced, the City should work with shop owners.
Councilmember Gag said he would be willing to revisit the issue.
Councilmember Polehna expressed appreciation for the ice rink at Benson Park.

RESOLUTION 2008-02
RESOLUTION RELATING TO FINANCING OF CERTAIN PROPOSED
PROJECTS TO BE UNDERTAKEN BY THE CITY OF STILLWATER;
ESTABLISHING COMPLIANCE WITH REIMBURSEMENT BOND
REGULATIONS UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE
BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council (the Council) of the City of Stillwater, Minnesota (the
City) as follows:
1. Recitals.
a. The Internal Revenue Service has issued Section 1.103 -18 of the Income Tax
Regulations (the Regulations) dealing with the issuance of bonds, all or a portion
of the proceeds of which are to be used to reimburse the City for project
expenditures made by the City prior to the time for the issuance of the bonds,
b. The Regulations generally require that the City make a prior declaration of its
official intent to reimburse itself for such prior expenditures out of the proceeds of
subsequently issued borrowing, that the borrowing occur and the reimbursement
allocation be made from the proceeds of such borrowing within one year of the
payment of the expenditure or, if longer, within one year of the date the project is
placed in service, and that the expenditure be a capital expenditure.
c. The City desires to comply with requirements of the Regulations with respect to
certain projects hereinafter identified.
2. Official Intent Declaration.
a. The City proposes to undertake the following projects described on Exhibit A
attached hereto.
b, Other than (i) expenditures to be paid or reimbursed from sources other than a
bqrrowing or (ii) expenditures permitted to be reimbursed pursuant to the
transition provision of Section 1.103-18(1)(2) of the Regulations or (iii)
expenditures constituting of preliminary expenditures as defined in Section
1.103-18 (i)(2) of the Regulations, no expenditures for the foregoing projects as
identified on Exhibit A have heretofore been made by the City and no
expenditures will be made by the City until after the date of this Resolution.
c. The City reasonably expects to reimburse the expenditures made for the costs of
the designated projects out of the proceeds of the debt (the Bonds) to be
incurred by the City after the date of payment of all or a portion of the costs. All
reimbursed expenditures shall be capital expenditures as defined in section
1.150-1 (h) of the Regulations
d. This declaration is a declaration of official intent adopted pursuant to Section 1.
103-18 of the Regulations.
3. Budqet Matters. As of the date hereof, there are no City funds reserved, allocated on a long
term basis or otherwise set aside (or reasonably expected to be reserved, allocated on a
long term basis or otherwise set aside) to provide permanent financing for the expenditures
related to the projects other than pursuant to the issuance of the Bond. This resolution,
therefore, is determined to be consistent with the City's budgetary and financial
circumstances as they exist or are reasonably foreseeable on the date hereof, all within the
meaning and content of the Regulations.
4. Filinq. This resolution shall be filed within 30 days of its adoption in the publicly available
official books and records of the City. This resolution shall be available for inspection at the
office of the city clerk at the City Hall (which is the main administrative office of the City)
during the n0rmal business hours of the City on every business day until the date of
issuance of the bonds.
5. Reimburser.1ent Allocations. The City's financial officer shall be responsible for making the
reimbursement allocations" described in the Regulations, being generally the transfer of the
appropriate amount for proceeds of the Bonds to reimburse the source of temporary
financing used by the City to make payment of the prior costs of the projects. Each
allocation shall be evidenced by an entry on the official books and records of the City
maintained for the bonds, shall specifically identify the actual prior expenditure being
reimbursed or, in the case of reimbursement of a fund or account in accordance with
Section 1. 103-18, the fund or account from which the expenditure was paid, and shall be
effective to relieve the proceeds of the bonds from any restriction under the bond resolution

Subject: Purchase of Parking Enforcement Vehicle
For the 2008 Budget, we have identified replacing the primary Parking Enforcement
Vehicle. The Parking Enforcement Officer currently drives a 2000 Chevrolet S-10 pick-
up truck with 69,000 miles. This vehicle has been operated in a high maintenance
manner, constant stops, idling, etc..., and has been pressed into patrol service during
extreme inclement weather incidents. The vehicle is currently out-of-service as the rear
end has gone out.
We are requesting to purchase one (1) Chevrolet Silverado Crew Cab pick-up via the MN
State Contract (#436607) for $23,450. This purchase will come out of the Parking
Revenue Fund and was approved during the September 2007 Downtown Parking
Commission Meeting. We are requesting the Crew Cab because the Parking
Enforcement vehicle can be utilized for police patrol duties during severe inclement
weather, such as heavy snowfall.

Subject: Squad Car Purchase
For the 2008 Budget Capital Improvement Plan, $100,000 was budgeted to purchase
three (3) new patrol vehicles. This is part of our scheduled rotation of marked patrol
vehicles to keep down maintenance and replacement costs, as the marked squads are
driven on a round-the-clock schedule, often in the emergency mode or idling while
stationary, which reduces the useful life of the vehicle.
The department requests to purchase two (2) Dodge Chargers (the police package),
available from the MN State Contract (#438516) for $23,194. We also are requesting to
purchase one (1) Chevrolet Tahoe available from MN State Contract ($27,301, with
Special Services Package, $29,471). The Tahoe will replace our Ford Expedition
(scheduled rotation), as we try to keep one four-wheel drive in the squad car fleet for
emergency weather conditions. Total purchase amount for the marked patrol vehicles is
$75,859.

Subject: Unmarked Police Vehicle Purchase
For the 2008 Budget Capital Improvement Plan, $54,000 was budgeted to purchase two
unmarked police vehicles. These vehicles will replace the 2000 Chevrolet Malibu and
the 1999 GMC (a forfeited vehicle utilized for police service). Both vehicles have
become maintenance intensive. Unmarked police vehicles, while not used to the extent
of marked patrol vehicles, are driven by investigative/administrative staff and are driven
constantly, sometimes in the emergency mode, and often will idle for long periods of
time at crime scenes and surveillance situations.
The department requests to purchase one (1) GMC Arcadia, available off the State ofMN
contract (contract #438556) for $24,758.55, and one (1) Ford Edge. The Ford Edge is not
available on state contract, but three bids (see attached) were taken at a reduced price (a
state contract equivalent), with the lowest bid coming from Roseville Midway Ford for
$23,512. Total purchase amount for unmarked police vehicles is $48,270.

Re: Proposal for Land Surveying Services.
Thank you for the opportunity to provide this proposal for surveying services on the City of
Stillwater Municipal Parking Ramp to be constructed to the north and west of the Lowell Inn in
downtown Stillwater, Minnesota,
SURVEY EXTENTS: The requested boundary and topographic survey will be bounded by Myrtle
Street on the south, 400 feet north of Myrtle Street on the north, Third Street on the west and 2nd
Street on the east. The extents of the survey will cover to the face of the building on the
opposite side of the streets.
SURVEY PUR{'OSE: We understand that the purpose of this survey is to provide an electronic
basemap with 1 foot contour for use in LSA Design master plans and construction documents.
SURVEY SCOPE: The scope of Land Surveying services that I am to provide will include:
. Boundary Survey - Cornerstone Land Surveying, Inc. will review the property legal
descriptions, and locate or set survey monuments on the property boundary (monuments
around the area immediately adjacent to the survey extents listed above. Title
commitments or owners and encumbrances reports and corresponding documents are
necessary to verify all right of way, boundary and easement information and to show
them on the surveys.
. Topographic Survey - topographic survey with a 1- foot contour interval of the area
described above will include:
o Existing buildings, roads. walkways, pavement, concrete, paths and gravel.
o Utility, power /light pole, transformers and boxes.
o Stonn/sanitary sewer manholes, pipe, size (if visible) with the direction of flow.
(See note regarding underground utilities.

IIV.JJ7V I. J
o Ditch and culvert locations and spot elevations.
o Water main (per records and as-built plans), and visible wells, hydrants and gate
valve locations. (See note regarding underground utilities.
o Surface features and landscaped areas and additional improvements as necessary.
SURVEY SCHED!JlE: We understand the design timeline for this project is relatively short. We will
commence field topographic services within 2 days of authorization to proceed. Field work will
be completed within 1 week thereafter. The final drawing will be available within 2 weeks of
notice to proceed.
PROJECT DEUVERABlES: The final products delivered to LSA Design will be an electronic basemap
created in Autocad 2004 format. Said drawing wiH consist of Iinework and point data consistent
with Master Planning and/or Construction Document development. All contours will be created
as polylines per lSA Design request. Digital drawings, plot files and pen styles or pdf format
files will be provide at any scale or sheet size to include within your plan set.
PROJEg CONCERNS:
1) Weather Conditions: Given the amount of snow currently existing, we will expect the
parking lots will be sufficiently clear of piles and newly accumulated snows for accurate
locations and elevations to be obtained, If significant snowfall occurs during the field
survey period, delays may be encountered. If snow piles are not able to be removed,
electronic data from previous work on this site will be used with approval from Larson
Engineering. Piles will be noted and data differentiated if prior survey data is used.
2) Utility Locations: We will contact Gopher State One Call, for underground utility
locations. In addition to field location of visible structures. we will use utility plan and
as-built data provided to us, to depict the location of the underground utility lines.
Utilities draw per as-built plans will be graphic in nature and should not be considered an
absolute location. We will use all resources available and due diligence to locate as many
utilities as possible, but may be unable to located underground utilities which are
unmarked.
REIMBURSABLE EXPENSES: Reimbursable expenses (i.e. county fees, city fees, attorney's fees,
Title Company fees, plat checking fees, document fees, meetings, plotting, etc.), are not
included in this estimate.

DATE: January 3, 2008
TO: Mayor and City Council
REQUEST: 1) Rezone Lakeview Hospital site from RA & RB to PA
2) Amend Zoning Ordinance to permit Hospitals in P A District
rather than allowing only by Special Use Permit
HEARING DATE: January 8, 2007
,--
PREP ARED BY: Bill Turnblad, Community Development Director l. ( ,
BACKGROUND
The Lakeview Hospital is giving thought to future facility needs. As part of its .
planning process the hospital is considering whether the Churchill Street site could
physically support expansion and whether such expansion would be acceptable to the
City.
Currently the hospital site is zoned residentially and any expansion requires a Special
Use Permit (SUP). This includes a complete public hearing and public review process.
In order to give some certainty to the vagaries of the public review process, the hospital
has requested: 1) a rezoning of the property to P A, Public Administration (which is an
institutional classification), and 2) an ordinance amendment to permit a hospital in a P A
zone without a SUP,
The effect of approving the requests would be that as long as a building addition or
other site improvements meet all of the land use massing and performance standards of
the P A district, a building permit could be issued without a public review process.
SPECIFIC REQUEST
Lakeview Hospital has requested:
1) Approval of the first reading of a rezoning of the hospital site property
from RA, Single Family Residential and RB, Two-Family Residential to
P A, Public Administration; and
2) Approval of the first reading of an amendment to the Zoning
Ordinance which would change the hospital use from a "specially
Lakeview Hospital
January 3,2008
Page 2
permitted" use in the P A, Public Administration Zoning District to a
"permitted" use.
ANAL YSIS
The goal of the hospital is to be allowed to make improvements to the facility without
the need for the public hearing process. A rezoning from residential to institutional will
not by itself accomplish that goal. Hospitals are currently allowed only by Special Use
Permit (SUP) in the P A zoning district. Therefore, if the rezoning is approved without
an ordinance amendment, the hospital would still be required to receive a SUP.
When reviewing a rezoning and code amendment request, the City Code establishes
three review criteria} These criteria are that the proposal is to: 1) further the" general
community welfare"; 2) be in accordance with "good zoning practice"; and 3) be in
conformance with the Comprehensive Plan.
General community welfare
To determine whether the first standard is met requires balancing the value of a
hospital located within a community against the impact of an institutional facility
upon the immediate neighborhood.
The community as a whole would consider having a hospital located fairly
centrally to be an asset. Whether this asset to the whole community offsets the
impact felt by the immediate host neighborhood is open to debate. If the
potential impact to the host neighborhood is potentially great, maintaining some
sort of public review could be beneficial.
Conformance with Comp Plan
The city's 1995 Comprehensive Plan offers no insight into this specific land use
case. The only institutional uses addressed in the plan are city government and
city infrastructure. Hospitals, schools and other important institutional uses are
not addressed.
Good zoning practice
What do other cities do? To gauge what is acceptable in other cities, the
following table was compiled.

· Just over half of the cities allow a hospital in at least one zoning district
without a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) or SUP.
· A majority of surveyed cities only allow hospitals without a CUP or
SUP in business districts.
· No city other than Stillwater allows hospitals in a residential zoning
district. Though, Oak Park Heights allows a hospital in their rather
unique hybrid zoning district called the "residential/business
transitional district".
SUMMARY
· Judging by the surveyed cities, it appears that having a hospital on property
zoned non-residential is standard practice. Following that practice it would be
acceptable to rezone the Lakeview Hospital site from residential to a non-
residential district. However, there is no clear standard when it comes to
whether the hospital use ought to be allowed by CUP jSUP or whether it ought
to be outright permitted.
· The proposal is not contrary to the city's comprehensive plan.
· Whether the request is deemed to be in furtherance of the general community
welfare is a subjective decision that the City Council will have to make as it
considers the request.
ALTERNATIVES
Lakeview Hospital
January 3,2008
Page 4
There are a number of possible alternatives.
1. Approve the request. This would include approval of the first reading of the
rezoning to P A as well as the first reading of the ordinance amendment
allowing hospitals in the P A district as a permitted use rather than a specially
permitted use.
2. Approve the request in part. This alternative has tWo forms.
a. Approve the first reading of the rezoning to P A. But, rather than approve
an amendment to allow a hospital as an outright permitted use, approve
an amendment that would allow hospitals with a Planned Unit
Development (PUD) permit.
b. Approve the first reading of the rezoning to P A. But, rather than approve
an amendment to allow a hospital as an outright permitted use, approve
an amendment that would allow hospitals with a Conditional Use Permit
(CUP) .
3. Deny the request.
4. Table the request.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff believes some form of public hearing and public review is appropriate. Though, requiring
a special use permit public hearing for every project may not be necessary. Therefore, staff
favors Alternative 2b.
Both Alternative 2a and 2b provide for neighborhood input and review through a public
hearing process. But unlike the Special Use Permit approach, the PUD and CUP review could
grant approval of a long range master facilities plan. As long as site improvements are
consistent with the approved master plan, no additional public review would be required. This
provides the hospital with more certainty since a SUP review and public hearing would be
needed for each site improvement. At the same time, the neighborhood has a chance to review
and comment on the initial master plan. If the hospital wants to change the master plan, it
would have to come back for a public hearing.
If this alternative is selected by the City Council, the hospital would prepare its master plan
within the next year or so and make application for a CUP. A condition of approval would be
that the master site plan would have to be followed.
The PUD permit approach would be similar to the CUP approach. But the PUD permit was
designed for multiple building projects with shared open space. So there are standards such as
increased setbacks from perimeter lot lines, a requirement to dedicate land to the City for
recreation or park purposes, etc. These standards do not fit the hospital project well.
Therefore, staff prefers the CUP of Alternative 2b.

New York, New York, which will act as securities depository of the Bonds. Individual
purchases of the Bonds may be made in the principal amount of $5,000 or any multiple thereof

DTC will be the responsibility of DTC; transfer of principal and interest payments to beneficial
owners by participants will be the responsibility of such participants and other nominees of
beneficial owners. The purchaser, as a condition of delivery of the Bonds, will be required to
deposit the Bonds with DTC.

credit and power to levy direct general ad valorem taxes, The proceeds will be used to finance
2008 capital outlay needs of various City departments.

of the Bonds, Proposals shall be accompanied by a Good Faith Deposit ("Deposit") in the form
of a certified or cashier's check or a Financial Surety Bond in the amount of $14,450, payable to
the order of the City. If a check is used, it must accompany the proposal. If a Financial Surety
Bond is used, it must be from an insurance company licensed to issue such a bond in the State of
Minnesota, and preapproved by the City. Such bond must be submitted to Springsted
Incorporated prior to the opening of the proposals. The Financial Surety Bond must identify
each underwriter whose Deposit is guaranteed by such Financial Surety Bond. If the Bonds are
awarded to an underwriter using a Financial Surety Bond, then that purchaser is required to
submit its Deposit to Springsted Incorporated in the form of a certified or cashier's check or wire
transfer as instructed by Springsted Incorporated not later than 3:30 P.M., Central Time, on the
next business day following the award. If such Deposit is not received by that time, the
Financial Surety Bond may be drawn by the City to satisfy the Deposit requirement. The
Deposit received from the purchaser, the amount of which will be deducted at settlement, will be
deposited by the City and no interest will accrue to the purchaser. In the event the purchaser
fails to comply with the accepted proposal, said amount will be retained by the City, No
proposal can be withdrawn or amended after the time set for receiving proposals unless the
meeting of the City scheduled for award of the Bonds is adjourned, recessed, or continued to
another date without award of the Bonds having been made. Rates shall be in integral multiples
of 5/1 00 or 1/8 of I %. Rates must be in level or ascending order. Bonds of the same maturity

matters relating to the receipt of proposals and award of the Bonds, (ii) reject all proposals
without cause, and (iii) reject any proposal that the City determines to have failed to comply with
the terms herein.

If the Bonds qualify for issuance of any policy of municipal bond insurance or commitment
therefor at the option of the underwriter, the purchase of any such insurance policy or the
issuance of any such commitment shall be at the sole option and expense of the purchaser of the
Bonds. Any increased costs of issuance of the Bonds resulting from such purchase of insurance
shall be paid by the purchaser, except that, if the City has requested and received a rating on the
Bonds from a rating agency, the City will pay that rating fee. Any other rating agency fees shall
be the responsibility of the purchaser.
Failure of the municipal bond insurer to issue the policy after Bonds have been awarded to the
purchaser shall not constitute cause for failure or refusal by the purchaser to accept delivery on
the Bonds.
CUSIP NUMBERS
If the Bonds qualify for assignment of CUSIP numbers such numbers will be printed on the
Bonds, but neither the failure to print such numbers on any Bond nor any error with respect
thereto will constitute cause for failure or refusal by the purchaser to accept delivery of the
Bonds. The CUSIP Service Bureau charge for the assignment of CUSIP identification numbers
shall be paid by the purchaser.

or equivalent, funds that shall be received at the offices of the City or its designee not later than
12:00 Noon, Central Time. Unless compliance with the terms of payment for the Bonds has
been made impossible by action of the City, or its agents, the purchaser shall be liable to the City
for any loss suffered by the City by reason of the purchaser's non-compliance with said terms for
payment.
2121180vl
A-4
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
On the date of actual issuance and delivery of the Bonds, the City will execute and deliver a
Continuing Disclosure Undertaking (the "Undertaking") whereunder the City will covenant for
the benefit of the owners of the Bonds to provide certain financial and other information about
the City and notices of certain occurrences to information repositories as specified in and
required by SEC Rule 15c2-12(b)( 5).
OFFICIAL STATEMENT
The City has authorized the preparation of an Official Statement containing pertinent information
relative to the Bonds, and said Official Statement will serve as a nearly final Official Statement
within the meaning of Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. For copies of
the Official Statement or for any additional information prior to sale, any prospective purchaser
is referred to the Financial Advisor to the City, Springsted Incorporated, 380 Jackson Street,
Suite 300, Saint Paul, Minnesota 55101, telephone (651) 223 3000.

maturity dates, principal amounts and interest rates of the Bonds, together with any other
information required by law, shall constitute a "Final Official Statement" of the City with respect
to the Bonds, as that term is defined in Rule 15c2-12. By awarding the Bonds to any underwriter
or underwriting syndicate submitting a proposal therefor, the City agrees that, no more than
seven business days after the date of such award, it shall provide without cost to the senior
managing underwriter of the syndicate to which the Bonds are awarded 60 copies of the Official
Statement and the addendum or addenda described above. The City designates the senior
managing underwriter of the syndicate to which the Bonds are awarded as its agent for purposes
of distributing copies of the Final Official Statement to each Participating Underwriter. Any
underwriter delivering a proposal with respect to the Bonds agrees thereby that if its proposal is
accepted by the City (i) it shall accept such designation and (ii) it shall enter into a contractual
relationship with all Participating Underwriters of the Bonds for purposes of assuring the receipt
by each such Participating Underwriter of the Final Official Statement.

RECOMMENDATIONS
Re: Recommendations for the Issuance of $1,445,000* General Obligation Capital Outlay Bonds, Series 2008A
(the "Bonds' or the "Issue')
We respectfully request your consideration of our recommendations for the above-named Issue. Bond proceeds will
be used to finance the 2008 capital outlay needs of various City departments.
We recommend the following for the Bonds:
1.
Action Requested
To establish the date and time of receiving bids and
establish the terms and conditions of the offering.
2.
Sale Date and Time
Tuesday, February 5.2008 at 10:00 A.M. with award
by the City Council at 7:00 P,M. the same day.
3.
Method of Sale
The Bonds will be sold using a competitive bidding
process. In the interest of obtaining as many bids as
possible, we have included a provision in the attached
Terms of Proposal for underwriters to submit their bid
electronically through the electronic bidding platform of
PARITY@. In addition, physical bids (by phone or fax)
will be accepted at the offices of Springsted.
PARITY@currently is subject to an injunction that may
affect the City's ability to utilize their services on day of
sale. See Discussion section for further explanation.
4.
Authority for the Issue
The Bonds are being issued pursuant to Minnesota
Statutes, Chapter 475 and the City Charter.
5.
Principal Amount of the Offering
$1,445,000*
*Included in the Terms of Proposal for the-Bonds is a
provision that permits the City to increase or reduce
the principal amount of the Bonds in any of the
maturities. This allows for any necessary adjustments
required based on final interest rates to meet the City's
first year levy constraint.
6.
Repayment Term
The Bonds will mature annually February 1. 2009
through 2016. Interest will be payable semi-annually
each February 1 and August 1, commencing
August 1, 2008.
*Preliminary; subject to change

Credit Rating Comments
10. Federal Treasury Regulations Concerning Tax-
Exempt Obligations
(a) Bank Qualification
(b) Arbitrage Compliance
The Bonds will be general obligations of the City
secured by its full faith and credit and taxing power.
The Bonds will be repaid with ad valorem property
taxes.
The City first levied in 2007 for collection in 2008 in the
amount of $220,000 in anticipation of this Issue.
Beginning with the 2007 tax levy, each year's tax levy
collection will be used to make the interest payment
due on August 1 during the year of collection and the
principal and interest payment due February 1 of the
following year.
Due to their short duration, the Bonds will not be
subject to payment in advance of their stated maturity
dates.
An application will be made to Moody's Investors
Service for a rating on the Bonds. The City's general
obligation debt is currently rated "Aa3".
Under Federal Tax Law, financial institutions cannot
deduct from income for federal income tax purposes,
expense that is allocable to carrying and acquiring tax-
exempt bonds. There is an exemption to this for "bank
qualified" bonds, which can be so designated if the
issuer does not issue more than $10 million of tax-
exempt bonds in a calendar year. Issues that are
bank qualified generally receive lower interest rates
than issues that are not bank qualified. Since the City
does not expect to issue more than $10 million of tax-
exempt bonds in 2007, this Issue is designated as
bank qualified.
All tax-exempt issues are subject to the federal
arbitrage and rebate requirements, which require all
excess earnings created by the financing to be rebated
to the U.S. Treasury. The requirements generally
Page 2
City of Stillwater, Minnesota
December 27, 2007
(i) Rebate
(ii) Yield Restriction
(d) Economic Ufe
(e) Federal Reimbursement Regulations
11, Continuing Disclosure
cover two categories: bond proceeds and debt service
funds. There are exemptions from rebate in both of
these categories.
There is a "small issuer" exemption from rebate for a
City that issues $5 million or less in a calendar year.
Since the City does not expect to issue more than
$5 million in tax-exempt obligations in 2008, this Issue
is exempt from rebate.
The City must maintain a bona fide debt service fund
for the Bonds or be subject to yield restriction. The
City must maintain a bona fide debt service fund for
the Bonds or be subject to yield restriction, Yield
restriction requires restricting the investment retum in
the debt service fund to the yield on the Bonds. A
bona fide debt service fund is a fund for which there is
an equal matching of revenue to debt service expense,
with the fund spent down each year to a carry over
permitted equal to the greater of the investment
earnings in the fund during the prior year or 1/12 the
debt service of the prior year.
The average life of the Bonds cannot exceed 120% of
the economic life of the projects to be financed,
The capital outlay needs being financed by the Bonds
range in economic life from 3 to 20 years. The
average life ofthe Bonds is 4.670 years; therefore the
Bonds are within the economic life requirements.
Federal reimbursement regulations require the City to
make a declaration, within 60 days of the actual
payment, of its intent to reimburse itself from expenses
paid prior to the receipt of bond proceeds. It is our
understanding the City has taken whatever actions are
necessary to comply with the federal reimbursement
regulations in regards to the Bonds.
The Bonds are subject to continuing disclosure
requirements set forth by the Securities and Exchange
Commission. The SEC rules require the underwriter of
the Bonds to provide an annual update of certain
Official Statement information and report any material
events to bond holders. The purchaser therefore
requires the City to commit to providing such
Page 3
City of Stillwater, Minnesota
December 27,2007
information under a continuing disclosure agreement
or "undertaking". If the City does not enter into such
an agreement prior to the offering of the debt,
underwriters will not offer a bid to purchase the Bonds.
This Issue is subject to the SEC's continuing
disclosure requirements. The SEC rules require the
City to undertake an annual update of its Official
Statement information and report any material events
to the national repositories. The City has elected to
provide its own continuing disclosure.

DISCUSSION
Proceeds of the Bonds will finance the 2008 capital outlay needs of various City departments, The City has provided
a list of the assets' costs by department as shown on pages 6 through 8. The sources and uses of funds for the
Bonds are shown on page 9.
The principal repayment structure for the Bonds is shown on page 10, Each year's collection of taxes will be used to
make the August 1 interest payment in the year of collection and the February 1 principal and interest payment in the
following year. In consultation with City staff, the principal due in the first year has been structured around the City's
2007 levy in the amount of $220,000 with level debt service payments thereafter. We have included a provision in the
Terms of Proposal to allow for any adjustments to the maturity schedule necessary to match the first year's debt
service to the levy. The ten-year repayment term is consistent with both the City's overall strategy for repayment of
this type of debt and federal regulations on the actual lives of the assets. Page 9 contains the following information:
· Columns 1 through 6 show the year the tax levy is made, the principal payment dates, the annual principal
payments, estimated interest rates and projected total principal and interest payments, given the current
market environment.
· Column 7 shows the 105% overlevy which is required by State statutes and serves as a protection to
bondholders and the City in the event of delinquencies in the collection of taxes.
Electronic Bidding
The City has elected to use the PARITY@ software and system provided by i-Deal LLC to enable the electronic
receipt of proposals from prospective underwriters. It is used by underwriters who use a complementary i-Deal
software system in preparing their proposals to facilitate submittal of those proposals. Use of this system, in
particular the use of a web browser means of delivery, has been the subject of third party patent infringement claims
Page 4
City of Stillwater, Minnesota
December 27,2007
by one of i-Deal's competitors. In mid-2007, a court injunction was granted that prohibited i-Deal's use of the subject
means of delivery. i-Deal has made modifications to its method of accessing electronic proposals to address the
injunction. The modified access software has been installed on Springsted computers.
In addition, i-Deal has agreed to indemnify Springsted and our clients who use the PARITY@ bidding system, holding
each harmless in the event any claims are asserted relating to the proper use of its modified system. A copy of the
indemnification letter has been provided to the Ctty and to City's bond counsel for their review. Currently, a provision
has been made in the Terms of Proposal to receive bids using the modified PARITY@ system. If the City Council
instructs Springsted not to use PARITY@, the PARITY@ provisions will be removed from the Terms of Proposal and
bids will only be received by Sealed Bidding.
Springsted is pleased to again be of service to the City of Stillwater.
Respectfully submitted,

The Bonds will be issued by means of a book entry system with no physical distribution of
Bonds made to the public. The Bonds will be issued in fully registered form and one Bond,
representing the aggregate principal amount of the Bonds maturing in each year, will be
registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee of The Depository Trust Company ("DTC"),
New York, New York, which will act as securities depository of the Bonds. Individual purchases
of the Bonds may be made in the principal amount of $5,000 or any multiple thereof of a single
maturity through book entries made on the books and records of DTC and its participants.
Principal and interest are payable by the registrar to DTC or its nominee as registered owner of
the Bonds. Transfer of principal and interest payments to participants of DTC will be the
responsibility of DTC; transfer of principal and interest payments to beneficial owners by
participants will be the responsibility of such participants and other nominees of beneficial
owners. The purchaser, as a condition of delivery of the Bonds, will be required to deposit the
Bonds with DTC.
REGISTRAR
The City will name the registrar, which shall be subject to applicable SEC regulations. The City
will pay for the services of the registrar.
OPTIONAL REDEMPTION
The Bonds will not be subject to payment in advance of their respective stated maturity dates.
SECURITY AND PURPOSE
The Bonds will be general obligations of the City for which the City will pledge its full faith and
credit and power to levy direct general ad valorem taxes. The proceeds will be used to finance
2008 capital outlay needs of various City departments.
Page 12
TYPE OF PROPOSALS
Proposals shall be for not less than $1,434,885 and accrued interest on the total principal
amount of the Bonds. Proposals shall be accompanied by a Good Faith Deposit ("Deposit") in
the form of a certified or cashier's check or a Financial Surety Bond in the amount of $14,450,
payable to the order of the City. If a check is used, it must accompany the proposal. If a
Financial Surety Bond is used, it must be from an insurance company licensed to issue such a
bond in the State of Minnesota, and preapproved by the City. Such bond must be submitted to
Springsted Incorporated prior to the opening of the proposals. The Financial Surety Bond must
identify each underwriter whose Deposit is guaranteed by such Financial Surety Bond. If the
Bonds are awarded to an underwriter using a Financial Surety Bond, then that purchaser is
required to submit its Deposit to Springsted Incorporated in the form of a certified or cashier's
check or wire transfer as instructed by Springsted Incorporated not later than 3:30 P.M., Central
Time, on the next business day following the award. If such Deposit is not received by that
time, the Financial Surety Bond may be drawn by the City to satisfy the Deposit requirement.
The Deposit received from the purchaser, the amount of which will be deducted at settlement,
will be deposited by the City and no interest will accrue to the purchaser. In the event the
purchaser fails to comply with the accepted proposal, said amount will be retained by the City.
No proposal can be withdrawn or amended after the time set for receiving proposals unless the
meeting of the City scheduled for award of the Bonds is adjourned, recessed, or continued to
another date without award of the Bonds having been made. Rates shall be in integral multiples
of 5/100 or 1/8 of 1%. Rates must be in level or ascending order. Bonds of the same maturity
shall bear a single rate from the date of the Bonds to the date of maturity. No conditional
proposals will be accepted.
AWARD
The Bonds will be awarded on the basis of the lowest interest rate to be determined on a true
interest cost (TIC) basis. The City's computation of the interest rate of each proposal, in
accordance with customary practice, will be controlling.
The City will reserve the right to: (i) waive non-substantive informalities of any proposal or of
matters relating to the receipt of proposals and award of the Bonds, (ii) reject all proposals
without cause, and (iii) reject any proposal that the City determines to have failed to comply with
the terms herein.
BOND INSURANCE AT PURCHASER'S OPTION
If the Bonds qualify for issuance of any policy of municipal bond insurance or commitment
therefor at the option of the underwriter, the purchase of any such insurance policy or the
issuance of any such commitment shall be at the sole option and expense of the purchaser of
the Bonds. Any increased costs of issuance of the Bonds resulting from such purchase of
insurance shall be paid by the purchaser, except that, if the City has requested and received a
rating on the Bonds from a rating agency, the City will pay that rating fee. Any other rating
agency fees shall be the responsibility of the purchaser.
Failure of the municipal bond insurer to issue the policy after Bonds have been awarded.to the
purchaser shall not constitute cause for failure or refusal by the purchaser to accept delivery on
the Bonds.
CUSIP NUMBERS
If the Bonds qualify for assignment of CUSIP numbers such numbers will be printed on the
Bonds, but neither the failure to print such numbers on any Bondnor any error with respect
thereto will constitute cause for failure or refusal by the purchaser to accept delivery of the
Bonds. The CUSIP Service Bureau charge for the assignment of CUSIP identification numbers
shall be paid by the purchaser.
Page 13
SETTLEMENT
Within 40 days following the date of their award, the Bonds will be delivered without cost to the
purchaser through DTC in New York, New York. Delivery will be subject to receipt by the
purchaser of an approving legal opinion of Briggs and Morgan, Professional Association, of
Saint Paul and Minneapolis, Minnesota, and of customary closing papers, including a no-
litigation certificate. On the date of settlement, payment for the Bonds shall be made in federal,
or equivalent, funds that shall be received at the offices of the City or its designee not later than
12:00 Noon, Central Time. Unless compliance with the terms of payment for the Bonds has
been made impossible by action of the City, or its agents, the purchaser shall be liable to the
City for any loss suffered by the City by reason of the purchaser's non-compliance with said
terms for payment.
CONTINUING DISCLOSURE
On the date of actual issuance and delivery of the Bonds, the City will execute and deliver a
Continuing Disclosure Undertaking (the "Undertaking") whereunder the City will covenant for the
benefit of the owners of the Bonds to provide certain financial and other information about the
City and notices of certain occurrences to information repositories as specified in and required
by SEC Rule 15c2-12(b)(5).
OFFICIAL STATEMENT
The City has authorized the preparation of an Official Statement containing pertinent information
relative to the Bonds, and said Official Statement will serve as a nearly final Official Statement
within the meaning of Rule 15c2-12 of the Securities and Exchange Commission. For copies of
the Official Statement or for any additional information prior to sale, any prospective purchaser
is referred to the Financial Advisor to the City, Springsted Incorporated, 380 Jackson Street,
Suite 300, Saint Paul, Minnesota 55101, telephone (651) 223-3000.
The Official Statement, when further supplemented by an addendum or addenda specifying the
maturity dates, principal amounts and interest rates of the Bonds, together with any other
information required by law, shall constitute a "Final Official Statement" of the City with respect
to the Bonds, as that term is defined in Rule 15c2-12. By awarding the Bonds to any
underwriter or underwriting syndicate submitting a proposal therefor, the City agrees that, no
more than seven business days after the date of such award, it shall provide without cost to the
senior managing underwriter of the syndicate to which the Bonds are awarded 60 copies of the
Official Statement and the addendum or addenda described above. The City designates the
senior managing underwriter of the syndicate to which the Bonds are awarded as its agent for
purposes of distributing copies of the Final Official Statement to each Participating Underwriter.
Any underwriter delivering a proposal with respect to the Bonds agrees thereby that if its
proposal is accepted by the City (i) it shall accept such designation and (ii) it shall enter into a
contractual relationship with all Participating Underwriters of the Bonds for purposes of assuring
the receipt by each such Participating Underwriter of the Final Official Statement.

The findings below identify sanitary risks that may impact water quality, inform the water supply owner of
applicable responsibilities, and/or provide guidance related to water system operation and maintenance.
!Water Source
The Third Street Station Source (Well 1 )' has many features that make it vulnerable to contamination.
The following are recommendations the Board should consider implementing to keep this a safe source of
water:
- Samples for bacteria and nitrates should be taken on a routine basis to show that there are no
contaminant sources affecting the water quality. Bacteria samples are taken quarterly.
- The holding basins before the pump should be cleaned and disinfected on an annual basis.
- Completion of the Wellhead Protection Plan, which includes determining the 10 year zone of capture for
the spring, should be made a priority.
- The constructed well casings west of the pump station should be inspected at least monthly to assure no
leakage of a contaminant into the well.
- All of this information should be documented to prove that the source is being maintained as a safe and
reliable source of water for the city.

RE: Snow Plowing Complaint at
2263 Orwell Court North
Dear Mayor and Council Members,
Usually I am writing to you with laudatory comments about your staff that
does dedicated work for the City of Stillwater.
But with the snow storm and subsequent snow plowing by some assigned
person that did plow Orwell Court North during the December 22_23rd
period, I was faced with remnants of the broken asphalt and dirt pushed up
on my driveway and area.
I fully realize that this is, indeed, still part of the City property. But at 69
years of age, I had a dickens of a time getting part of YOUR roadway out of
my snow blower and driveway. I even had markers put up to help guide
him.
Could the gentleman PLEASE slow down, for goodness sake?
Thank you for hearing me out.
Sincerely,
~
