I have been in the building and development business for 28 years and this proposed Agreement is unprecedented and unfair . Generally, until developers have secured some vested interest in the property such as a preliminary plat, municipalities normally charge application fees and reimbursement of direct expenses the City may incur specifically related to an application such as planning and engineering. Since applications for platting will not be accepted at this time and we have received no formal response as it relates to our concept plans, a contractual agreement of this nature appears premature. Items of annexation or MUSA expansion are normally covered out of general City accounts similar to what transpired \.Vith respect to preparing comprehensive plans, feasibility studies, etc. In this case, the City is not in a position to grant any development type approvals to prospective developers. The fees that are proposed for the utility feasibility study in the amount of $50,000 and AUAR in the amount of $90,000 pertain to the entire Orderly Annexation area.. This includes not only developed land, but proposed lands owned by all participants in the annexation area and should be allocated to the entire annexation area and not to Phase I. If fees are allocated to specific development properties and there is a direct nexus between the cost of those fees and the specific benefiting properties, nonnally letters of credit, certificates of deposit collateral or similar collateral are utilized in lieu of a requested cash deposit Generally, land owners, applicants, and developers should also have a voice in challenging any unnecessary draws that \-vouId be made against such collateral. Please do not construe the above request as a position of umvillingness to pay costs that are directly related to our development requests. It would be helpful if both parties could understand the future plans of the City as it relates to how trunk, area costs, and other related improvements will be paid for. \Ve should both have the same agenda as it relates to moving forward in a timely fashion and pro~iding quality improvements that are paid JAN-21-87 11,46 FROM,PEMTOM LAND COMPANY ID,6128378635 1-fayor) City Countil.

Sincerely) Daniel J. Herbst President DJH/idt PAGE 3/3 r e e . . . ~ AGREEMENT THIS AGREEMENT, made this day of January, 1997, between the City of Stillwater, Washington County, Minnesota, a Home Rule City of the Third Class and Municipal Corporation organized under the laws of Minnesota (City), The Pemtom Land Company, a Minnesota corporation, W~stwood Professional Building, 14180 Highway 5, Eden Prairie, Minnesota 55344 (Pemtom), Charles Cudd, Co., a Minnesota corporation, 1802 Wooddale Drive, Woodbury, Minnesota 55125 (Cudd), James H. Bradshaw, 1310 Hillcrest Drive, Stillwater, Minnesota 55082 (Bradshaw), and Independent School District No. 834, 1875 South Greeley Street, Stillwater Minnesota 55082 (834), collectively, (the Developers) . RECITALS 1. On August 16, 1996, the City entered into an Agreement (Orderly Annexation Agreement) with the Town of Stillwater, Washington County, Minnesota for the Orderly Annexation of portions of the Town of Stillwater to the City. 2. Pursuant to the Orderly Annexation Agreement and on October 4, 1996, Phase I of the property described in the Orderly Annexation Area became part of the City. 3. The Developers have requested that the City conduct planning, engineering and enviromnental studies within the Orderly Annexation Area preparatory to and in anticipation of the extension of municipal utilities into the Orderly Annexation Area and to property owned by the Developers. 4. At the request of the Developers, the City has contracted with the State of Minnesota to study the Long Lake Watershed (Long Lake Study) and to pay one-half of the costs of the study, estimated to be eighteen thousand and no/100 dollars ($18,000.00); the City has authorized Short, Elliott and Hendrickson, Inc., its' consulting engineer, to conduct a feasibility study under Minnesota Statute 1 . . . ~429 to determine whether a project consisting o(the extension of municipal utilities into the Orderly Annexation is feasible (Feas~bility Study) and the estimated costs ofthis feasibility study is fifty thousand and no/lOO dollars ($50,000.00); and the City entered a coritract. with Dahlgren, Shardlow and Uban, Inc., consulting planners, landscape architects, 300 First Avenue North, Suite 210, Minneapolis, ''. . t&. Minnesota 55401, to provide an en~ironmentalstudy of the Orderly Annexation Area under the Alt,ernative Urban Areawide Review Process (AUAR) according to rules ofthe Minnesota Environmental Quality Board (EQB) and the cost of this study is estimated to be ninety thousand and nollOO dollars ($90,000.00). NOW, THEREFORE, BASED UPON THE MUTUAL PROMISES OF THE PARTIES, THEY AGREE AS FOLLOWS: 1. The Developers will pay all costs incurred by themselves or by the City in connection with the Long Lake Study, the Feasibility Study and the AUAR including, but not limited to, any legal, planning, engineering or inspection expenses incurred by the City in connection with these studies (Study Costs) . 2. As security for the payment of these costs, the Developers, upon execution of this Agreement, will provide the City with a cash deposit (Deposit) in the sum of one hundred seventy-three thousand eight hundred and no/lOO dollars ($173,800.00), which is one hundred ten percent (110%) of the estimated cost of these studies. Each Developer will pay a percentage of the total Deposit equal to the ratio that their acreage bears to the total acreage of the Developers. 3. The Developers will pay their share in full by February 1, 1997. If a share is not paid on time, the City may halt all work on any of these studies until all shares are paid in full. Further, the City will draw upon the security on deposit with the City in an amount equal to any invoice submitted to it for study costs. 2 . . . 4. If it should be aetermined, based upon studies done by the City, and in the discretion of the City, that the City actually collects by Agreement or through assessments for local improvements levied under Minnesota Statutes g429 or other means study costs from third parties, the City will, consider providing to the Developers credit against future assessments or hook-up charges to be paid by the Developers pro rata based upon the amount of their deposits. All interest that accrues on any sums on . deposit with the City pursuant to this Agreement will remain property of the City. The City, however, will be under no obligation to give a credit to a Developer because of the uncertainty of future projects and changes in land ownership that may present conflicting claims to any credit. 5. The Developers hereby hold the City and its officers and employees harmless from claims made by itself and third parties for damages sustained or costs incurred resulting from these studies. The Developers also agree to indemnify the City and its officers and employees for all costs, damages, or expenses which the City may payor incur in consequence of any such claims including, reasonable attorney's fees. 6. Nothing in this Agreement or the payment of money to the City by the Developers pursuant to this Agreement will be deemed approval of any development request or approval that might otherwise be needed by the Developers as part of any City development review requirement. 7. The instrument may be executed in counterparts and will become final and binding as one instrument when all of the parties have signed a copy. TERMINATION This Agreement will terminate once payment has been made for all of the studies and any amounts have been reimbursed to the Developers. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have set their hand this _ day of January 1997. CITY OF STILLWATER Jay L. Kimble, Its Mayor 3 . . .

Magnuson (#66400) Magnuson Law Firm 333 North Main Street Suite 202 P.O. Box 438 Stillwater, MN 55082 612/439-9464 5 -e Memorandum To: Mayor & City Council Marcy Cordes, Administr~ AJiSJ,t, for the City Coordinator - r January 16, 1997 From: Date: Re: United Waste proposal for yard waste disposal Background In December of 1996, United Waste presented City staff with a proposal that the City mandate use of biodegradable paper bags for the disposal of yard waste generated by Stillwater residents. Currently, residents place yard waste in plastic bags for collection. Yard waste disposed of in plastic bags cannot be sent to a registered compost site. Instead, United Waste is disposing of Stillwater yard waste for a fee at Burberl Landscaping in Baytown Township. Apparently, yard waste "contaminated" with plastic is not marketable at any price; as a result, all of the yard waste collected in Stillwater over the last three years is still sitting on Burberl's property. As an alternative, United Waste has proposed that the City switch to a completely biodegradable bag which will allow disposal of Stillwater yard waste in a registered compost site--a solution which should be both environmentally sound and much more economical than the current system. United Waste has agreed to provide the biodegradable bags at no cost to City residents. United Waste has also advised staff that the company anticipates a substantial reduction in their costs if a compo sting system is implemented, and suggests a possible adjustment in the City's rates, to be negotiated after an evaluation of program cost-savings at the end of this year. Since yard waste cannot be accepted for compost unless it is completely free of plastic, the new system can only be successful if the City mandates participation by all city residents. United Waste has been working with surrounding communities to implement similar programs, including Oak Park Heights, which will be holding a first reading of an amendment mandating use of the bags at their next meeting. United Waste staffwill also be available at the January 21 st meeting to respond to any questions. Recommendation That Council direct staff to draft an amendment to the City's solid waste ordinance, requiring Stillwater residents to dispose of all yard waste in biodegradable bags. e . 'J .

In fact, he is the featured presenter for the Conferences for Newly Elected Officials sponsored each year by the League of Minnesota Cities. He sees the city clerks as key to effective performance on the part of the council, manager/administrator (if present) and department heads, and will share his ideas on how to position ourselves as coaches and facilitators. What's more, we'll find out what our newly elected officials are told! As coach and facilitator, our ability to communicate becomes even more critical. Barry Lane provides a fast-paced and humorous look at how our verbal style and non-verbal cues impact our effectiveness. Mike McKinley reminds us that although change is inevitable, our reaction to change is not. This finale session will focus on how we can make faster decisions, worry less and laugh more.

This session will cover what's required and what's effective, as well as specific dos and don'rs. C. Municipal Finance for Clerks Your council is called upon to make a variety of financial decisions that will have impOnaDt consequences for your city. Do they have the information they need? Do you? Learn what fiscal policies should be in place, how to spot fiscal warning signs and avert potential problems, what shouId be considered in financing decisions, as well as the various financing methods, types of debt, and bond financing process. The last hour will be devoted to presentations and in-depth roundtable discussions; choose from one of three specific areas: 1) Creative Financing for Municipal Buildings and Collaborative Building Projects, 2) Utilizing TIF Financing, and 3) Financing Municipal Public Utility Improvements. D. Responding Creatively to Cbanging Times! Weare living in a time of unprecedented social, political and technological change. More and more people are finding that what worked before doesn't seem to work as well today-whether it is the health care system or finding enough money in the city budget to plow 40 inches of snow! In fact, the old concepts, tools and solutions can acwalJ.y be part of the problem! During this interactive session, you'll become familiar with the principles and possibilities of Breakpoint Thinking and explore how it can be applied to your work as city clerk.

This workshop focuses on how to "make things happen" in an organized, progressive, and timely manner. Topics to be covered include: tips and tidbits for self-management; goals, priorities, and plans; getting help from others. G. Property Tax Primer This session will provide an overview on how the current property tax system works and outlines key issues related to reform. Questions to be addressed include: What is the current classification system and why does it exist? What is the tax capacity rate? What is LGA? How is LGA determined? What are the key issues related to property tax retorm? Participants will be briefed on any current legislative initiatives and their implications. H. Promoting Your City: A Case Study "How does a northern Minnesota town of 1,500 people win a national awanl as an All-America City, beating out Boston, MA, and Bismarck, ND? The folks from Fosston won it with style" (Star Tribune, August 3, 1996). Marching in and singing a town song to the jurors in Fort Worth, Texas, was the culmination of much hard work and many innovative ideas for meeting community needs (plus a talent for promotion!). The Mayor and two other key players will describe what they did and provide tips on how others can take steps to "put their city on the map." I.

You'll get the latest information about affordable hardware and software resources. J. How Cities Are Using Mediation and Alternative Dispute Resolution When a public conflict develops (especially dealing with matters of public policy, development and economics), more and more cities are seeking to resolve disputes outside the courthouse. Mediation and other AD R techniques have been uSed successfully in situations involving neighborhoods, first-time juvenile offender programs, landlord-tenant relationships, multi-party land use, issues between governments in provision of services, etc. This session will review various methods as well as their advantages and disadvantages and share several actual cases. K. Data Practices: The Basics and Beyond There are about 60 categories of government data. Is it surprising, therefore, that even the most experienced clerk has questions from time to time'! Here's a session covering some of the more confusing examples as well as addressing some of the emerging issues related to electronic communications. You're invited to submit a question in advance on the registration form. L. Liquor Licensing: Questions and Answers From application to enforcement, a city clerk faces a number of dilemmas related to background checks, violations, liability and.'

HEMO TO: MAYOR & CITY COUNCIL DIRECTOR ~ p FROM: DIANE DEBLON, FINANCE DATE: JANUARY is, 1997 SUBJECT: SNOWBIRD POLICY Backqround The city council directed staff to inquire and research the policy used by other cities for the treatment of snowbirds (residents that leave during the winter) regarding utility services. Analysis Staff has contacted seven comparable sized cities in the area and found the following policies to be unanimous: 1. Water charges are based on actual winter usage. 2. Sewer charges are based on actual winter water usage. 3. No adjustments are made to sewer. charges for leaving during the winter. 4. If the city bills for garbage (not all do). then a credit is allowed if the resident is gone for more than one month. I Also. some cities allow the water to be turned off at no charge and charge a fee for water turn on. Fees for water turn on were $15.00 to $25.00. Stillwater charges $30.00 for water turn on and contrary to prior information, there is NOT a water turn off charge. Conclusion Based on the information gathered, the City of Still~vater handles the "snowbirds" in a similar manner to other cities for the utility charges. Recommendation Staff recommends no change in policy at this time. e , '( r / q ) , PARKS DEPARTMENT - TIM THOMSEN e PARK UPDATE FOR 1996 AND 1997 Lily Lake Recreation Center - So.

CROIX VALLEY SPORTS COMPLEX The update includes two items. A request for approval for professional services for survey and environmental services and a update/status report on site master planning and the arena design. At meeting time, the architect will present the master plan for the site. The uses indicated in the master plan include two ice sheets (one covered), air structure, field house, public works site and space for a new armory or possible aquatics center. Some design related issues have come up that need input from the council. These areas are project budget as it relates to building size and revenues and facility management (city, contractor, nonprofit or other). Paul Erickson from the Blain National Sports Centre has a lot of experience regarding sports facility management and marketing and has offered to share his experience with the city. It is suggested the council schedule a special meeting on January 28 (preferably) or February 4 (regular meeting - afternoon session) to discuss these issues and provide needed direction for continued complex design work.

MEMORANDUM e TO: Mayor and Council FR: City Coordinator RE: Sports Complex financing update DA: January 16, 1997 I thought it important to provide you with an update on the financing of the sports complex at this time (and in conjunction with the update of the progress of the work associated with the facilities that is being provided to you by Steve Russell). First of all, the Council has entered into agreements with Ankony- Kell, etal, and GWO for architectural and construction management services. Although the architectural services contract does allow some spending safeguards and the CM contract will not kick in until the construction contracts are awarded, there will be costs incurred as we go forward with the project. These costs could, depending on how far we progress, exceed $250,000. The expenditures are presently being paid from General fund revenues. If the project does not go forward then the General fund will not be reimbursed. Second, the financing shortfall for the project, based on the most recent projection is still about $1,000,000. Therefore, the City will have to fund the shortfall with general tax levy revenues or some other source of revenue (i.e., contributions, donations, etc.) to make up the shortfall. The debt service related to financing the shortfall, as previously presented to the Council was about $110, 000 per year. However, Ron Langness has identified a possible revised debt financing structure that could reduce the debt service requirement to about $90,000 per year. In any event there still appears to be a finaricing shortfall. I realize that the Council has been given this information before. However, I still thought it important to let you know that the financing problems still exist. I also thought it important to restate the problem so that those who are working on the facilities design know that there are limited funds available to finance the project and that the costs need to be minimized or reduced but certainly not increased. I can discuss this further with you at the meeting. 4f~ e ~ e e TO: FR: RE: DA: MEMORANDUM Mayor and Council City Coordinator Water Board Commission Appointments January 17, 1997 Discussion: The City has received applications from three residents requesting appointment to the Water Board.

Although I believe it is always useful to try to resolve issues thru a mediation process I have some serious reservations about mediating this issue. First of all (as Mayor Kimble eloquently explained at the joint council meeting last Tuesday) there are 70 to 80 agencies/jurisdiction/groups that have been involved in the bridge decision process. Although most of these "players" would probably not have an issue with the design and location question it would only take one or two dissatisfied groups to kill any solution that may be developed in mediation (and design and location is a major issue with NPS and the environmental groups). In other words reaching a consensus would, in my estimation be a formidable task and reaching a unanimous decision would be an impossible task. Second, even if a unanimous decision was achieved it would appear that a new bridge design and location would have to be part of the decision. This would mean that another 4-5 years of work would have to be performed before the bridge would actually be built and who knows what agency or community will corne forward in the future to challenge what has been previously agreed upon (we are where we are at today because some of the "players" have changed their position on the bridge). Recommendation: In summary, I would recommend that the City continue to explore mediation and to continue to meet with the City of Oak Park Heights, but foremost, to proceed with the court action that has already been started (see the motion filed by the City Attorney which accompanies this memorandum). e e e MAGNUSON LAW' FIRM LICENSED IN MINNESOTA AND WISCONSIN.

MOTION City of Stillwater, Washington County, Minnesota, a Home Rule City of the Third Class and political subdivision of the State of Minnesota, moves for leave to intervene as a Defendant in this action in order to assert the Answer against Plaintiffs set forth in the proposed Answer and Cross Claim of Applicant, City of Stillwater, a copy of which is attached. As grounds, Applicant states: 1. That they are parties in interest to a decision by the Defendant, National Park Service (NPS) relating to construction of the proposed St. Croix River Bridge between Oak Park Heights and Stillwater, Minnesota, and Houlton, Wisconsin. The NPS issued a ruling under 97 A of the Federal Wild and Scenic Rivers Act (the Act), declaring that the proposed bridge have an adverse impact on the St. Croix River scenic quality. 2. That the City of Stillwater has a substantial interest in a determination of this Court that the St. Croix River Bridge Project is not a "Water Resources Project" within the meaning of Section 16(b) of the Act. 3. That a disposition of this action in favor of the NPS will impair or impede the City o~ Stillwater's ability to protect the interests of its citizens and the future of the City of Stillwater's historic district, its parkways and parks and its ability to manage unburdenable interstate traffic. The disposition of this action will determine whether the City will be able to manage its future. 4. That the City of Stillwater's interests are not adequately represented by the existing parties. e 2 5. That the City of Stillwater and the State of Minnesota, as Intervenor and the issues raised e by the Complaint and the Answers of the Defendants to the main action, have numerous common questions of law and fact. 6. That permitting the City of Stillwater to intervene will not unduly delay or prejudice the adjudication of the rights of the original parties. Applicant stands ready to proceed to trial on the issue in question at the pleasure of the Court and the convenience of the original parties. 7. This Motion is accompanied by a pleading setting for the reasons for which Intervention is sought, a Memorandum of the Applicant and by a proposed order granting Intervention. As appears from the attached certificate, this Motion to Intervene has been served upon all parties effected by it. WHEREFORE, Applicant prays that it be permitted to intervene as a party Defendant in this case.

Except as admitted or qualified, denies each and every allegation contained in the Complaint. 2. Admits the allegations in paragraphs 1, 5, 7, 22, 25, 26, 27, 28, and 30 of the Complaint. 3. Adopts the allegations and responses and affirmative defenses of the State of Minnesota, by Commissioner James Denn, Minnesota Department of Transportation and realleges each allegation as if fully set forth in this answer. CROSS CLAIM OF THE CITY OF STILLWATER, WASIDNGTON COUNTY, MINNESOTA, AGAINST DEFENDANT ROGER KENNEDY, DIRECTOR OF THE NATIONAL PARK SERVICE 1. This Cross Claim is brought against Roger Kennedy, Director of the National Park Service, United States Department of the Interior, in his official capacity (NPS). 2. For its Cross Claim against NPS, the City of Stillwater states and alleges as follows: e 2 FACTS e 3. That on December 23, 1996, the NPS determined that the proposed new crossing of the St. Croix River at Stillwater (the Project) is located on a segment of the river established under the Wild and Scenic River Act (the Act) (Public Law 90-542, as amended; 16 U.S.c. 1271 et seq.), and; 4. On December 23, 1996, NPS determined that the Project was a water resources project . since it was a project that would affect the free-flowing characteristics of The St. Croix River. Free- flowing is defined in Section 16(b) of the Act as: "the term free-flowing as applied to any river or section of a river means existing or flowing in a natural condition without impoundment, diversion, straightening, rip- rapping, or other modifications of the water way", and; 5. That based upon a Section 7(a) Evaluation conducted by the NPS on behalf of the Department of the Interior that the project would have a direct and adverse effect on the scenic and recreational values for which the river was established, and; 6. On or about December 23, 1996, Midwest Field Director of NPS, William W. Schenk issued the Letter of Determination and requested that no Federal permits be issued for the Project. 7. That in order for the Project to be built, it will require a Section 404 permit from the u.s. Army Corps of Engineers for drainage and fill work in the river, approval from the United States Coast Guard to place a fixed bridge over a navigable waterway and Federal funding from the Federal Highway Administration. 8. That based upon the Section 7(a) determination made by NPS, the Federal permits and. assistance described in paragraph 7 are being withheld. 9. That the Letter of Determination issued by NPS on or about December 23, 1996, constitutes Final Agency Action. 3 e e COUNT I. VIOLATION OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE ACT, 5 U.S.C. g553-339, 701-706) ARBITRARY DETERMINATION THAT NPS HAS AUTHORITY IN THE LOWER 25 MILES OF THE LOWER ST. CROIX RIVER SEGMENT OF 10. The Administrative Procedure Act (APA) 5 V.S.C. g553-559, 701-706 provides for Judicial Review of Final Agency Action. 11. That Public Law 92-560 enacted on October 25, 1972, by the 92nd Congress as Senate file 1928 (the Act) added to the Wild and Scenic River System of the United States that part of the St. Croix River between the dam near Taylors Falls and its confluence with the Mississippi River. 12. The Act provided, however, that a master plan be adopted within one (1) year that would, among other things, "provide for State administration of the lower 25 miles of the Lower St. Croix River Segment (the area between a line drawn on the North boundary of the City of Stillwater to its confluence with the Mississippi River." 13. That the bridge crossing that is at issue in this litigation is within the area designated by Congress to be managed by the State. 14. That the Act also provides in pan that "nothing in this chapter (16 S 1286) shall effect existing rights of any State including the right of access with respect to the deeds of streams, tributaries or rivers (or segments thereof) located in a National Wild Scenic or Recreational River." 15. That by Public Law No. 740 adopted by the 70th Congress of the United States as H.R.. 13502 the States of Minnesota and Wisconsin were given authority over a bridge crossing at or near Stillwater as follows: e "Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That in order to facilitate interstate commerce, improve the postal service, and provide for military and other purposes, the State of Minnesota and the State of Wisconsin be and are hereby authorized to construct, maintain and operate a free highway bridge and approaches thereto across the Saint Croix River at a point suitable to the interests of navigation, at or near Stillwater, Minnesota, in 4 accordance with the provisions of an Act emit led "An Act to regulate the construction of bridges over navigable waters," approved March 23, 1906. . SEe. 2. There is hereby conferred upon the State of Minnesota and the State of Wisconsin all such rights and powers to emer upon lands to acquire, condemn, occupy, possess, and use real estate and Qther property needed for the location, construction, operation, and maintenance of sllch bridge and its approaches as are possessed by railroad corporations for railroad purposes or by bridge corporations for bridge purposes in the State in which such real estate or other property is situated, upon making just compensation therefor, to be ascertained and paid according to the laws of such State, and the proceedings therefor shall be the same as in the condemnation or expropriation of property for public purposes in such State. SEC. 3. The right to alter, amend, or repeal this Act is hereby expressly reserved. Approved, February 13, 1929." e 16. That the authority to construct, maintain and operate contemplates construction and reconstruction and includes authority and jurisdiction over the existing bridge as well as its replacement. 17. That NPS has no authority over the bridge crossing at Stillwater under the Act or otherwise. COu~T II. VIOLA TION OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURE ACT - ARBITRARY DETERMINATION THAT THE PROJECT WOULD HAVE A DIRECT AND ADVERSE IMPACT ON THE VALUE FOR WHICH THE RIVER WAS ESTABLISHED. 18. Allegations 1 through 19 are realleged as if set forth verbatim. 19. Section l.(b) of the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act, Public Law 90-542 states: "It is hereby declared to be the policy of the United States that certain selected rivers of the Nation which, with their immediate envirorunents, possess outstandingly remarkable scenic, recreational, geologic, fish and wildlife, historic, cultural, or other similar values, shall be preserved in free-flowing condition, and that they and their immediate environments shall be protected for the benefit and enjoyment of present and future generations. " 20. The Act, in Section 1O.(a), goes on to state: "Each component of the national wild and scenic river system shall be administered in such a manner as to protect and enhance the values which cause it to be included in said system, insofar as is consistent herewith, limiting other uses that do not substantially interfere with public use and enjoymem of these values. In such administration primary emphasis shall be given to protecting its aesthetic, scenic, historic, archaeologic, and scientific features. Management plans for any such component may establish varving 5 e e degrees of intensitv for protection and develooment, based on the' special attributes of the area. (emphasis added)" 21. The Act in Section 2.(b) goes on to state: "Every wild, scenic or recreational river in its free-flowing condition or upon restoration to this condition, shall be considered eligible for inclusion in the national wild and scenic rivers system and, if included, shall be classified, designated, and administered as one of the following: (1) Wild river areas-- Those rivers or sections of rivers that are free of impoundments and generally inaccessible except by trail with watersheds or shorelines essentially primitive and waters unpolluted. These represent vestiges of primitive America. (2) Scenic river areas-- Those rivers or sections of rivers that are free of impoundments, with shorelines or watershed still largely primitive and shorelines largely undeveloped, but accessible in places by roads. (3) Recreational river areas-- Those rivers or sections of rivers that are readily accessible by road or railroad, that may have some development along their shorelines, and that may have undergone some impoundment or diversion in the past. " 22. That prior to passage of Public Law 92-560 the Bureau of Outdoor Recreation (B.O.R.) prepared the report "Scenic River Study of the Lower St. Croix" dated July 1972 and revised October 1972 and February 1973. This comprehensive plan refines and revises the Plan Section and River Classification of that study as suggested in Public Law 92-560, as amended by Public Law 93-621, approved January 4, 1975. 23. That based upon the B.O.R. study, the Final Master Plan for the Lower St. Croix dated February, 1976 classified the following zone for the area in which the building project is proposed: "Recreational Classification Zone. This zone extends from the Chisago-Washington county line in Minnesota, projected across the river in Wisconsin, downstream to the confluence of the St. Croix River with the Mississippi River. This 41.7-mile segment includes William O'Brien State Park, the Sc. Croix Islands Wildlife Area, the Boomsite Wayside, St. Croix Islands Recreation Area, Afton State Park, and Kinnickinnic State Park. It includes the incorporated communities of Marine-on-Sc. Croix, Stillwater, Oak Park Heights, Bayport, North Hudson, Hudson, Lakeland, Lakeland Shores, Lake St. Croix Beach, Sc. Marys Point, Afton, and Prescott. In addition to the incorporated communities, numerous seasonal and year-round residences are found clustered within this reach. There are three highway and four railroad crossings located here. Even with this amount of development, the recreational segment retains outstanding natural and recreational values that have qualified this area for inclusion in the National Wild and Scenic River System." Final Master Plan - February 1976, page 28, Lower Sc. Croix. e 6 24. That in concluding that the Bridge Project would have an adverse impact on scenic value e that NPS applied the standard that would apply to "Scenic River Areas" a proper standard for areas classified designated and administered as Scenic River Areas, and not for recreational areas. COlJ~l III. VIOLATION OF THE ADMINISTRATIVE PROCEDURES ACT, ARBITRARY DETERMINATION THAT THE PROJECT IS A "WATER RESOURCES PROJECT" WITHIN THE MEANING OF THE ACT. 25. Realleges all paragraphs as if set forth verbatim. 26. That the term "Water Resources Project" is defined in Section 16.(b) of the Act as: "the term free-flowing as applied to any river or section of a river means existing or flowing in natural condition without impoundment, diversion, straightening, rip-rapping, or other modifications of the waterway." 27. That a bridge will not impound or divert the river and is therefore not a "Water Resource Project" within the meaning of the Act. C01JNT IV. VIOLATION OF THE ADMINISTRATION PROCEDURE ACT - UNTIMELY AND ARBITRARY DETERMINATION THAT THE PROJECT WOULD HAVE A DIRECT AND ADVERSE IMPACT ON THE VALUES FOR WHICH THE RIVER WAS ESTABLISHED 28. Realleges paragraphs 1 through 27 as if set forth verbatim. 29. The NPS has been aware of this project for over 20 years. They first became aware o~ this project in 1974 when the regional office of the NPS issued a draft Environmental Impact Statement (DEIS) for the Lower St. Croix National Scenic Riverway. At that time both the Federal Highway Administration (FHW A) and the Wisconsin Department of Transportation (WISDOT) in comments to the DEIS advised the NPS of the proposed relocation or reconstruction of the bridge over the St. Croix in the vicinity of Stillwater. In response to these comments, in the final Environmental Impact Statement 7 e e e (FEIS), the NPS responded to the WISDOT comments by stating "Section 13(g) of the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act provides the necessary flexibility to satisfy future transportation needs". The Park Service further requested that they be involved in all planning of the proposed reconstruction or relocation of this river crossing at the earliest conceptual planning stages of the Project. 30. Consistent with this request C'fnd in compliance with the directives of the Council on Environmental Quality, Federal Section 4f requirements and other applicable federal and state law, MnDOT and WISDOT contacted all federal and state agencies with resources in the St. Croix River corridor including the NPS, the Federal Historic Preservation Office, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, and invited them to participate in the environmental review and planning process for this Project. 31. During the course of the ten year environmental review process for this Project MnDOT, time and again, asked the NPS to document its position on whether the proposed Project would constitute a water resource project within the meaning of the Wild and Scenic River Act. As early as 1988 the National Park Service advised MnDOT that, consistent with the DOl's Solicitor General opinion, a bridge was not a water resource project. 32. While, the National Park Service expressed concerns regarding the transportation needs for this Project, throughout the course of the planning process, the NPS, as a cooperating agency, at no time ever advised either the FHW A, MnDOT, or WISDOT that the proposed bridge was a water resource project and would require a Section 7 detennination. Indeed, representatives of the NPS made verbal representations to MnDOT that they preferred the southern corridor for the new location which location. was ultimately adopted. 33. Both the DEIS and the FEIS for this Project were reviewed by regional and local NPS personnel. None of the comment letters provided by the NPS on either the FEIS or DEIS stated that the NPS considered this Project to be a water resource project. The FEIS for this Project was signed in March 1995 and a federal record of decision was issued shortly thereafter. 8 34. In reliance on the FEIS and record of decision approved by the federal government as e well as the National Park Service's position regarding the status of this Project MnDOT together with WISDOT, in the Spring of 1995, commenced work on this Project. To date the two agencies have spent in excess of $14 million on this Project. In addition, the State of Minnesota has acquired numerous properties necessary for the bridge and bridge approach. MnDOT has displaced 70 families from properties which it acquired for construction of this project. MnDOT has expended state funds to relocate .mussels in the vicinity of the Project in anticipation of a Spring 1997 construction date. 35. That by participating in the Envirorunental Review for more than ten (10) years without making a 7(a) determination and allowing the project to proceed that NPS was arbitrary. COUNT V. IRREPARABLE HARM 36. The new bridge is necessary to reduce traffic congestion in historic downtown Stillwater and on the existing Stillwater-to-Wisconsin lift bridge, and to improve traffic safety and air quality in Stillwater and surrounding areas. The existing two-lane lift bridge over the St. Croix connecting downtown Stillwater with the Houlton, Wisconsin area is 61 years old and currently carries an average of 15,000 vehicles per day. Projections show that by the year 2014 a bridge between Stillwater and Houlton would need to carry nearly 30,000 vehicles per day, exceeding traffic capacity of the existing bridge. 37. From 1980 to 1990, nearly 1,700 traffic accidents and 24 fatalities occurred on the. roadway from Oak Park Heights through Stillwater and across the existing bridge. A new four-lane crossing, it is estimated, would reduce the accident rate for that roadway by 50 percent. Persistent and severe traffic congestion caused by delays on the existing bridge has resulted in air quality concerns in the Stillwater area. The new bridge will help relieve traffic congestion in Stillwater, thus significantly reducing congestion-related air pollution. 9 e e 38. That this action is a necessary attempt to limit the additional expense and delay that could result from the NPS's decision. MnDOT estimates the delay caused by the NPS has already added approximately $2-3 million to the cost of the project, if 1999 remains the target year for opening the new bridge. If the current delay continues, however, the MnDOT is unable to advertise the bridge construction contract by mid February 1997, the opportunity to begin construction in 1997 will be lost, the 1999 target will be attainable and yet-to-be-determined additional expenses will be incurred. 39. That unless the NPS 7(a) determination is declared unlawful, the harm to the City will be irreparable and result in continual loss of property and life. 40. That loss of the proposed bridge threatens imminent and irreparable harm to the City and to its citizens. The City's interests can only be protected by a declaration that the NPS's 7(a) determination was unlawful and that NPS be enjoined from preventing the issuance of any federal permits, licenses or assistance and that MnDOT be allowed to proceed with plans for, and construction of, the proposed bridge. The City has no adequate remedy at law. PRAYER FOR RELIEF WHEREFORE, Applicant prays for the following relief: A. That the Plaintiff's Complaint be dismissed with prejudice and on the merits. B. A declaration of this Court that the DOl and NPS have violated the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act, and the Administrative Procedure Act by preventing the construction of the proposed bridge; C. A declaration that the other Federal Defendants have acted to minimize harm to the Riverway as required by Section 4(t) of the Transportation Act and that the plans are in compliance with the Transportation Act; D. A declaration that MnDOT and the Federal Defendants have administered the Riverway in a manner that will protect and enhance the reasons for which the St. Croix was designated as a wild . and scenic river as required by the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act; that the DOl and NPS have wrongfully e 10 required and conducted a Section 7(a) determination under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act since the e construction of the bridge is not a "Water Resources Project" and the bridge will not have a direct and adverse effect on the values for which the river was established; the Defendants DOl and NPS be ordered to grant an easement to Defendant FHW A across the Riverway without unreasonable conditions precedent; that the construction of the proposed bridge is consistent with the policy against proliferation of transportation corridors under the Wild and Scenic Rivers Act; E. Preliminary and permanent injunctive relief enjoining the DOl and NPS interfering with and construction of the proposed bridge; F. An order that the Defendant, City of Stillwater, recover from the DOl and NPS their costs, including reasonable attorneys' fees, incurred in connection with this action, as provided for under the Equal Access of Justice Act, 28 U.S.C. g2412(d), and other applicable law. G. For such other and further relief as to the Court deems just. Dated: January 14, 1997 MAGNUSON LAW FIRM David T. Magnuson (#66400) Stillwater City ~ttorney 333 North Malh Street Suite 202 P.O.

Humphrey III, Attorney General, State of Minnesota by Sherry A. Enzler, Assistant Attorney General, 1100 NCL Tower, 445 Minnesota Street, S1. Paul, Minnesota 55101. MEMORANDUM Rule 24(a) refers to "Intervention of Right" and requires that an applicant be permitted to intervene if the applicant satisfies the tests of Rule 24(a). Intervention is of right if a United States statute grants an absolute right to intervene or if the applicant claims an interest relating to the property or transaction that is the subject of the action and the applicant is so situated that the disposition of the action as a practical matter may impair or impede the applicant's ability to protect that interest, unless the applicant's interest is adequately represented by existing parties. Wright, Miller & Kane, Federal Practice and Procedure: Civil 2d SS1902 and 1906. The City of Stillwater has an unique interest in the outcome of this litigation. If the NPS were successful in stopping the construction of the bridge, the City will suffer unique harm since it is the largest city and is the urban center of the area. The City has faced increased traffic congestion since the late 1960's when the first major study was made to examine replacement river crossing locations in the area. The future of the City is directly related to removing interstate traffic from its historical downtown streets. Further, the local environmental help that the City realizes from the new crossing in addition to traffic include, better air quality of less everyday use, reduced traffic noise and less vibrations from truck traffic that now is accelerating the degradations of the Historical District in the downtown. These interests are not represented by any of the parties to these proceedings. Rule 24(b) refers to "Permissive Intervention" and states conditions under which an applicant may be permitted to intervene. An applicant who does not meet the test of Rule 24(a) may be permitted to intervene under Rule 24(b)(2) if the applicant's claim or defense and the main action have a question of e e e law or fact in common. Wright, Miller & Kane, Federal Practice and Procedure: Civil 2d SS 1902 and 1910-1913. , The common question of law and fact that is shared by all parties is whether the bridge crossing is a "Water Resource Project" as defined by the National Wild and Scenic River Act and whether the NPS was arbitrary in concluding that recreational resource valued in the designation of the river was adversely impaired. Because the distinction between the two types of intervention is not clear, the City relies alternatively on both subdivision (a) and subdivision (b) and prays that its application for intervention be granted.

The workshop will be: WHEN: Tuesday, January 28, 1997: 1-4:30 p.m. & 7-9 p.m. Wednesday, January 29, 1997: 1-5 p.m. & 7-9 p.m. Thursday, January 30, 1997: 1-5:30 p.m. WHERE: Phipps Center for the Arts, River Room 109 Locust Street; Hudson, Wisconsin In addition, we have scheduled an Open House for the Task Force to present the results of it's work on the draft alternatives to others who are interested but unable to attend the workshop. The Open House will be on Thursday evening, January 30, 1997: 7-9 p.m., at the Phipps Center, River Room. The agenda for the workshop is enclosed. A workbook outlining material that will be discussed at the workshop has been distributed to the Lower St. Croix Planning Task Force and others who have indicated they plan to attend the workshop. If you'd like a copy of this material, please notify Kate Hanson, 612-439-7122. The workbook describes "working" alternatives that have been developed by a small group of task force members in preparation for the workshop. We emphasize that these are rough, working alternatives intended to serve as a starting point for the Task Force's discussions on January 28-30. They represent the first attempt to assemble information from past workshops and meetings into alternatives; we'll be improving on this "first cut" at the workshop to produce the draft alternatives. The descriptions of alternatives in the workbook will be out of date after January 28. -e We expect a good turnout of Task Force members and other interested individuals at the workshop, with representation of a wide variety of viewpoints on how the Lower St. Croix National Scenic Riverway should be managed in the future. (please see reverse) After the January workshop, the Task Force will distribute a newsletter summarizing the workshop and outlining the draft management alternatives. Through the newsletter, we will be asking for comments, and we will revise the draft alternatives accordingly. Also after the workshop, the planning coordinator, Task Force chairman, and others who have been involved in development of the draft alternatives will be available to make presentations. e If you're interested in attending the workshop; have suggestions on how we can communicate with local governments, riverway communities and others at this important stage of Lower St. Croix National Scenic Riverway planning; or have questions, please contact Kate Hanson (612-439-7122) or Clarence Malick (71 5- 386-7010). Note: Notes from the January 9 Task Force meeting will be distributed at the Alternatives Workshop. The topic of that meeting was workshop preparation.

In his State of the State Address, Governor Arne Carlson suggested a $20 million appro- priation for snow removal and flood emergency response. Senator Dean Johnson (R- Willmar) and Representative Steve Wenzel (DFL-Brainerd) have already introduced legisla~ tion that would do just that. The Wenzel bill, HF 100, will be heard Tuesday in the House Local Government committee. Wenzel's bill would appropriate $25 million for snow removal and distribute the money to local governments that have exceeded their budgets for snow removal. Distribution would be based on miles of roads, population, and of course, the amount of snow. Cities would have to request funding and would have to provide relevant information. The Johnson bill (SF 87) would appropriate the money first to the Department of Transporta- tion and then to counties with instructions to apportion the funds as necessary to cities and towns. While Minnesota has already qualified for federal funding, information from the Division of Emergency Management snow removal surveys will still be needed. The information could help determine distribution of federal funds and could also be used with the state appropriations. Please return your survey to the league as soon as possible. TIF seminar set Vol. 2, No, 2 January 17, 1997 MTA legislation in the offing? LMC model ordinance available soon Despite proposed legislation by Representative Loren Jennings that would offer a positive starting point on a rights of way debate, the Minnesota Telephone Asso- cic:ltfon (MT A) will reportedly introduce legislation identical to the laws currently in effect in Colorado. The Colorado law greatly restricts the ability of local governments adequately manage their local rights of way. The League is working on draft legislation that would clarify the city position on management of the right of way and compensa~ tion for the use, It's expected that hearings will be scheduled on this issue very soon, Watch the Cities Bulletin and FridayFax for more information. Model ordinance nears completion In addition, the League has been working closely with the City Engineers Association of Minne- sota (CEAM) in developing a model ordinance that could be used in cities across the state. The model ordinance will be finalized in the next two weeks, and will be unveiled at the CEAM conference January 30. The League will provide cities with a copy of the ordinance, and an explanation of what it all means around that time. On the recommendation of the League's Tax Increment Financing (TIF) task force. an educational seminar on TIF is scheduled for January 29. New legislators and legislators who serve on committees dealing with TIF have been invited. The seminar will provide lawmakers with a basic understanding of how TIF works, highlight successful uses of TIF, respond to questions, and dispel some of the myths. If you think your legislators would be interested in this seminar. please encourage them to attend. Contact Andrea Atherton at (612) _281-1258 for more information. ., "The Basics of TIF: An Educational Seminar for Legislators" is sponsored by the League of Minnesota Cities, Coalition of Greater Minnesota Cities, Minnesota Association of Small Cities, and Associa- tion of Metropolitan Municipalities.
