Chair Dear Commission Members: I would like to place the name of Louise Watson in nomination for the Commission's second annual Human Rights award. Louise will conclude per seconq term on the Commission in June. During her three years as a member, Louise Pas been instrumental in the initial fonnation of the Commission __ _and almo,$.t single-harid,edlY drafted the Hate Crimes Response procedure which was approved by the Stillwater 'City Council in January 1998. ' After receiving the Council's approval, Louise has worked tirelessly to make law enforcement agencies, educators, and the general citizens of Stillwater aware of the procedures and of the role that the Commission can play in the support of anyone who may become a victini of a bias crime or act of harassment. To that end. Louise has arranged successful hrl'ormational meetings with officials of School District 834 and the police department She set up a network of Commission members and concerned citizens to act as contacts in the event a crime occurs and secured the services a volunteer liaison to work directly wi~ victims and law enforcement agencies on behalf of the Human, Rights Conunission. i The Hate Crimes Re~nse procedures which Louise developed have become a model for other Human Rights 'Commissions in the area. Unfortunately. the procedures have already been put intcl action in Stillwater in response to an incident which occurred in April. While we hope that there are rarely occasions when the response team ""ill have to go into action, it is a. wonderful contribution to the COJDIl1uWty to know that the Commission is ther~ for the support of people who are not treated with the respect and equity that the Commission is trying to promote. ...' .. For these reasons, I feel that Louise Watson is very deserving of this year's Human Rights award. : Thank you for consipering this nomination. Sincerely, CD~e~~ Denise E. Carlson . c. of The 51.

This should allow for safe access to both driveways, without prohibitin~on street parking further, 1 . .:.........."".': :::".. .::::ii::::::: .................h. Memorandmn To: Mayor Kimble and City council Members cc: Nile Kriesel From: Chief Larry Dauffenbach Date: 10/20/98 Re: Market Place Car Wash H'f()daY I Met with Jack Krongard and Jeff House of the Market Place car wash. After some delays, both drying systems have finely been soundproofed. The purpose oftlieii:ieeting was to get sound meter readings on the car wash. Onthewest side of the building, the readings were 45-57dba .the maximum aUowed by ordinance is 60 d.b.a. The reading was taken with doors closed, one door cl(j~~dHand both doors opened. On the east side of the wash, there are no doors. The s()lltldreadings were ranging from 57 to 65 d.b.a. with one and two dryers working. The maximum allowed by ordinance is 65d.b.a. They comp(v with the ordinance. The above readings were taken with no traffic present. It should be noted tbat the nonnal traffic on Co Rd 5 gave the meter readings of 71 to 79 d.b.a. 1 . MEMORANDUM ." TO: Mayor and Council FR: City Coordinator RE: Meetings in November DA: October 12, 1998 It ~pears that it will be necessary to meet on November 24th as well as on November 10 . The City will be selling bonds for capital outlay purchases (for 1998 and 1999) and for the costs associated with local improvements constructed during 1998. In order to insure timely receipt of the sale proceeds it will be necessary to award the sale in November. Therefore, at the meeting next Tuesday, staff will be requesting that a special meeting be set for 4:30 P.M. (or later if necessary), Tuesday, November 24th. I realize that some of you may be out of town that week because of the Thanksgiving holiday. However, we will need at least four councilmembers present for the bond sale. Hopefully at least four members can be present. . I will discuss this with you next Tuesday but I wanted to give you some advance notice of our need to meet on November 24th in order that you might plan your schedule accordingly_ Thanks for your understanding. ~4 . ;, . . . MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and Council FR: City Coordinator RE: 1999 budget revisions DA: October 20, 1998 Discussion: On September I, 1998 the Council adopted a proposed budget in the amount of $6,477,80 I. However, at that time, requested expenditures exceeded revenues by about $190,000 and staff was directed to make further revisions to the budget in order to balance the budget. Diane and I have been working on the budget since the aforementioned date and I am proposing that departmental buqgets be set afthe levels indicated on the attached schedule ("A"). The budget would then be balanced-for the General and Special Revenue Funds (which are subject to Truth in Taxation requirements). In regards to the Enterprise Funds, two funds (Sanitary Sewer and Solid Waste) still have deficits. The Council will need to meet at a subsequent date (probably near year-end) to determine how to eliminate the deficits. Obviously, an increase in service charges would be the most appropriate way to fund the deficit. For your information, the rates for both sewer and garbage services have not been changed for about four years now. Also, for your information, the proposed budget and tax levy set by the Council will have a very minimal impact on the City tax rate for 1999. For example, the City tax on a home valued at $150,000 is estimated to be $779.02 for taxes payable in 1999. This is a -1.91 % decrease from 1998. In fact, according to Diane, the City tax rate for a like valued home' decreased by 1.49% in 1997 and increased by only .19% in 1998. Therefore, the City , (Council and staff) has, in my opinion, performed very well over the past three years by , providing quality services without significantly increasing budgets and taXes~ I can discuss this further with at the meeting.

PS-09079 (6/98) MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and Council FR: City Coordinator RE: Part time Police salaries DA: October 15, 1998 Discussion: The part time police officers are requesting a salary increase. Salaries for part time police officers have not been adjusted since 1995. It is becoming increasingly difficult to recruit and retain part time police and I believe part of the problem is the salary paid to the officers. Therefore, I would recommend that the Council adjust the salaries according to the attached schedule This amounts to a 3 % increase for 1998 and a 3% increase for 1999 (Note: the actual $ increase for 1998 would be less than 3% because the salaries would not go into effect until 10/1/98). This item is on the consent agenda. ~~ Recommendation: Council adopt salary as per attached schedule. . . . . RESOLUTION NO 98- APPROVING SALARY SCHEDULE FOR PART TIME POLICE OFFICERS Be it resolved, that the following salary schedule for Part Time Police Officers is hereby approved: Patrol Officer Sergeant Hours Effective Effective Effective Effective Step Worked 10/1/1998 1/1/1999 10/1/1998 1/1/1999 1 0-520 $8.30 8.55 9.05 9.35 2 521-1040 8.85 9.15 9.25 10.00 3 1040-2080 9.45 9.75 10.45 10.76 4 2081-3120 10.65 10.95 11.85 12.20 . 5 over 3120 11.85 12.20 13.00 13 .40 Adopted by the Council this 20th day of October, 1998. MAYOR ATTEST: CITY CLERK . MEMORANDUM . TO: Mayor and Council FR: City Coordinator RE: Administrative Assistant Position DA: October 15, 1998 Discussion: I will be presenting Council with a recommendation for the Administrative Assistant position at the meeting next Tuesday per the attached Resolution No. 98-271( Note: I still need until Monday to verify acceptance of the position by the candidate that I will be recommending to the Council and will "fill in the blank" by Tuesday). The resolution includes the salary schedule that was approved for 1998 for the Administrative Assistant position (previously for Marcy Cordes). I would also request that the holiday, sick leave and vacation schedules for this position be modified to be consistent with the provisions of the labor agreements for other employees. Prior to about 1992, the Policy and Procedures Manual contained provisions for personal benefits (i.e., holidays, sick leave and vacations) for employees who were not covered by labor agreements. In other words, management staff. In about 1992 the Managers became subject to a labor agreement and the manual now covers only two "exempt" employees - the City Coordinator and the Administrative Assistant position. Further, the labor agreements for other employees contains language that is somewhat more favorable (to the employees) than the manual and I believe it would be appropriate to provide the Administrative Assistant the same level of benefits that other city employees now enjoy. .

Cu:rent~y, I am employed as an Assistant Director of the Undergraduate Admissions Department at Hamline Um:r~rsIty. Although, I only recently began this position, I believe the Administrative AssistantlPersonnel Cpordinator pos~tlOn with the City of Stillwater is a great opportunity which is more suited to my skills and abilities, I accepted the posItion at Hamline University due to some political unrest which was occurring within the City ofIsanti, Prior to. working at Hamline University, I was employed as the Assistant City Administrator for the City oflsanti. As the ~~sIst~nt City Administrator, my primary responsibilities included: all aspects of planning and zoning; admmIstenng the City's Planning Commission and Park Board; coordinating and conducting land use public hearings; administering the Joint Powers Board which was formed with two other cities for a shared Building Official; budgeting for th:ee C.ity departments; supervision of the Deputy Clerk, Building Official, and Receptionist; editing and publishing the CIty-wIde newsletter; and handling all aspects ofliability insurance for the City. ~re taking the position with the City of Isanti, I had more than three years of progressive planning experience as a ~er for Dakota County, "Nllnnesota. My work in Dakota County consisted of planning and zoning administration, coordinating public hearings, project management oflong-tenn development plans, and the administration of two county-wide ordinances and a county-wide abatement program. My work in Dakota County was recognized by the National Association of Counties. The Cesspool Abatement Program (a program to upgrade failing septic systems) received a National Association of Counties Achievement Award. I also had the opportunity to work closely with staff from local municipalities, the National Park Service, and the Department of Natural Resources (DNR). The breadth of my responsibilities also involved constant contact with the County Board of Commissioners, Planning Commission, Zoning Board of Adjustment, and the general public, Because of this experience at Dakota County, I am very familiar with the City of Stillwater. My Master of Arts in Public Administration degree was obtained from Hamline University's Graduate Program. Some of my graduate coursework includes: Human Resource Management, Public Policy Analysis, and Public Fiscal Management. My Bachelor of Arts degree was obtained through Hamline University's College of Liberal Arts, My major area of study was Political Science with an emphasis in Public Service and minors in Management and Philosophy, Thank you for your time and consideration, I am available for an interview at your earliest convenience and look forward to hearing from you!

To: From: Subject: Date: Mayor and City Council II. ~ Steve Russell, Community Development Director f ~ Adoption of Aiple Property/Kolliner Park Master Plans October 16, 1998 Background The City Council directed preparation of the Master Plan for the Aiple Property and Kolliner Park March 3, 1998. Since that time, three community workshops and two questionnaires have be used by the City Planning Commission, Parks Board, Historic Preservation Commission and Downtown Parking Commission in developing the recommended Master Plan (see attached resolution). A critical implementation item is the purchase of the railroad land that runs along the inland (west) side of the property. This land is available for purchase and staff recommends the City obtain an appraisal of the land to use in negotiating purchase of the seven-acre site. The Master Plans reflect a low intensity use that makes it possible to enjoy the location on the St. Croix while maintaining and enhancing the natural and historic character of the site. No special Master Park provisions have been made for the possible construction of a new St. Croix bridge although a "C" alternative bridge location would significantly impact the enjoyment of the south end of the park. Enclosed with the plan is a cost estimate for constructing the park plans as proposed. Costs are organized in two phases with the optional elements for a visitor center on shoreline rip-rap. Phase I costs for trail construction site furnishings landscaping and picnic shelter/restroom construction is $853,000. Most of this work would take place on the north (downtown) end of the site with a trail connection to the south end. A second Phase II implementation includes improvements to the remainder of park would cost $1,287,900. This phase should not be implemented until more is known about the bridge construction. There may be opportunities to coordinate park construction with the bridge location and trial access. The optional Aiple Property Park elements include river edge treatment $648,754 and the conversion of the terminal building to a modem visitor's center $1,897,204. Kolliner Park costs are $761,336. The cost of park improvements should not get in the way of park plan adoption. Many sources of local, state and federal funds are available to improve parks in such prominent locations with r. '~ Mayor and City Council Page 2 October 16, 1998 . such wide-user benefit. Recommendation -Approval of Aiple Property Park and Kolliner Park master Plan (resolution) -Direct staff to obtain appraisal of railroad property for possible purchase Attachment Park Master Plans CPC Resolution 98-2 . . .' " .. MEMORANDUM . . TO: Planning Commission and Parks Board FR: Steve Russell, Community Development Director DA: October 7, 1998 RE: Public Hearing on Park Master Plans for Aiple Property and Kolliner Park Background: The lease for the Aiple Property ended this year. In anticipation of the land becoming available to the City , a Master Plan is being developed. The Master Plan was developed with input from a Joint Plan Committee comprised of the Planning Commission, Parks Board, Historic Preservation Commission, Downtown Parking Commission and City Council. Two workshops were held and a questionnaire distributed to the Stillwater community on the future park use of the site. The Plan being presented is the result of the workshops and analysis of site opportunities and constraints, plan committee meetings and meetings with resource group representatives (National Park Service, DNR and Boundary Area Commission). Plan Summary: The attached summary describes the park elements in the Master Plans. Both plans are low intensity with picnic areas, natural plantings, trails, picnic structures and restrooms. A fishing pier and boat storage for small rowboats is provided. The historic significance of the site would be interpreted at selected locations along the walkway. The attached information describes the various park elements and provide a Master Park map. Character sketches of sections of the park are provided to get the flavor of the plan. A visitor center alternative is shown in pictures and sketches for the terminal building. For Kolliner Park a swimming beach and reconstructed bathhouse is shown for that area. At meeting time, cost estimates and phasing of improvements will be presented. Recommendation (Planning Commission and Parks Board): Receive presentation, hear comments from the public, discuss plan and recommend plan for approval to the City Council (October 20, 1998). Attachments " .) The Aiple Property And Kolliner Park SRF No. 0982991 September 22, 1998 . Description of the Master Plan The Aiple Property The Master Plan for the Aiple. Property is designed to maximize pedestrian access to the 20-acre riverfront property, while respecting its unique location and natural river floodplain character. Access is provided from four points: a multipurpose path extends north into downtown adjacent to the existing railroad line; an improved sidewalk connection to an existing public parking lot and to downtown via Main Street; pedestrian and automobile access to trails and parking at the main entry opposite the Oasis service station; and vehicular access to parking from the Sunnyside Marina road. In all cases, access requires crossing property that is currently private. A lO-foot-wide multipurpose trail runs the length of the Aiple Property, connecting the park's features. The trail loops back on itself at the south end, creating a continuous 1.5-mile hike from downtown and back. The 10- foot width of the trail allows for security patrols by police squad . cars. Safety lighting mounted on low poles is discreetly placed along the path. The park includes two new floating docks on the water: a public fishing pier at the south end of the site and a permanent mooring for the Cayuga barge, which would become a viewing deck and interpretive exhibit. The Cayuga, which was donated to the City, would be moved from its current location at the south end to a new location opposite the main entry. Along with the barge would be four slips for visitor boats or a water taxi. Near the barge, the centerpiece of the park is a large lawn area for picnicking and informal recreation. The lawn area is served by two picnic shelters, a restroom and a small parking lot. At the center of the lawn area, an old section of limestone foundation wall could be cleaned up to serve as a backdrop for programmed events such as small concerts, weddings and group meetings. Just south of the picnic area is a woodland garden bisected by wood chip trails that includes a special planting area to attract butterflies. In addition to a fishing pier, the south end of the park will include a new structure that will house equipment for the St. Croix Rowing Club, a public restroom and park maintenance room. An open seating area amongst a shrub and flower bed will provide a location for informal picnicking . \.' . and wildlife watching. After removing a large industrial pier, the natural beach shoreline will be cleaned up and improved to provide the City's only direct access to the water's edge south of Mulberry Point. All along the trail system, points of natural or historical interest are called out with interpretive markers and benches so that school children, residents and visitors alike gain a full appreciation of the natural and historical significance of the park. Kolliner Park The Master Plan for Kolliner Park seeks to return it to its former splendor as a swimming beach with a historic limestone bathhouse. The bathhouse would be located and detailed as close as possible to the original facility (constructed in 1931), while conforming to current design standards. It would include changing rooms, portable toilets, and space for lifeguards. The existing beach, adjacent to the bathhouse, with minimal improvements, would provide safe access to the water for swimmers. A narrow lawn area extends south along the water, providing space for picnicking and informal recreation. At the south end of the lawn is a public fishing pier, connected to the bathhouse area by a paved path. Access to the swimming beach is provided for cars by upgrading an existing entrance road and parking lot for 20 cars. The plan also suggests the possibility of a commercial water taxi mooring, which would provide an exciting means of visiting the beach from downtown . Stillwater or from the park at the Aiple property, while minimizing the impact of cars on the site. North of Highway 64 and the historic lift bridge, the site remains largely unchanged from its current natural state. Although the north end of Kolliner Park was once home to rustic campgrounds, its most valuable use today is as a natural backdrop to the river, as seen from downtown Stillwater. The existing service road is retained. Additional planting along the water's edge is contemplated as a means to enhance the value of the shoreline to birds and to other wildlife. . \. ii " :- CI. l ~ Q os c; = Kolliner Aiple Park Site ParI{ Site en Z en Z ~~ e ~ 0 0 0 0 ~ 0 ~ ~ ~ ~ ~~ ~ 1-3 o 0 :I: :I: :r: :I: < en ~ ~ e Q.. ~ :: ~ en \. \. 10- Foot Paved Path ~ ~ Water Taxi \. \.

CITY OF STILL WATER Jay L. Kimble, Mayor ATTEST: Morli Weldon, Clerk :7'- (, . . . MEMORANDUM October 14, 1998 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Tim Thomsen Parks Director SUBJECT: Pioneer Park Restroom Construction Cost Project 9819 DISCUSSION: The Master Park Plan for Pioneer Park done in 1996 stated that the projected cost to renovate the restrooms would be $105,000. The low bid to renovate the restrooms was $80,000, so we are lower than the projected cost from the original Park Plan. Many items raise the costs in the renovation. It has to be in full compliance with ADA. This means changing and moving inside walls, having handicapped assessable sinks, toilets and hand bars. We also need to run a separate power line just for the restrooms. Power for the restrooms now comes from the band shell underground and it will not be large enough for the new lights. This project also adds a significant roof structure to improvement appearance, lighting and ventilation. The Park and Recreation Board have reviewed these features, and the architectural style closely follows the design proposed in the Master Plan (see attachment). Before I had the working plans completed I had two architectural firms and two contractors look at the existing structure and they all agreed that the footings and existing floors are in great shape (no cracks), and that the City would be better offworking with the existing structure rather than building a new one. If Council wishes to see a new building, the City will see more costs than projected in 1996. According to a contractor to demolish the existing building and footings will be approximately $10,000. To complete a new building will involve an architect drawing new plans (approximately $1200 - $3000), new footings, blocks, plumbing and possibly new sewer and water lines to the street under the new wall and sidewalk which could almost double the price. RECOMMENDATION: With the footings and structure being as sound as they are, it would be my recommendation to renovate the existing building rather than build a new one. ACTION REQUIRED: If Council concurs with the recommendation they should pass a motion adopting Resolution No. 98- _, ACCEPTING BIDS AND AWARDING CONTRACT FOR PIONEER PARK RESTROOM REMODELING (PROJECT 9819).

The inventory would be used to protect area natural resources and pattern development around those resources. Park or open space dedications could be based on the protection of natural resources as well as the provision of park areas. The information could also be used in a DNR grant request to purchase a portion of the site for open space. The inventory would help implement comprehensive plan natural resource policies and AUAR mitigation requirements. The cost of the inventory could be charged to the phase II development as a part ofproject review. If approved by the Council, the owner of the property will be contacted for permission to prepare the inventory. Recommendation: Approval of natural resource inventory of Phase II expansion area (resolution). Attachment: Proposal for natural resources inventory Phase II expansion area.

("Ecologist"). Project Description . The City will soon annex an area bounded by County Road 15. the Zephr Railroad tracks, Neal Avenue and Boutwell Avenue ("Annexation Area"). The area includes significant natural resources, including tributaries to Brown's Creek, large wetlands, remnant prairies and woodlands. The area also includes existing homes and farm fields. The City adopted the AUAR Mitigation Plan In August. 1997. The plan committed the City to protecting significant natural resources In the Annexation Area, ~nd to minimizing or mitigating impacts to natural resources resulting from development of the area, This natural resources inventory to be conducted by the Ecologist will provide the City with a field Inventory end careful evaluation of the natural communities in the area to be annexed. It will record this Information In meps and data files In a GIS format for the City's future use. It will also provide detailed management recommendations for natural communities and storm water management In the Bfea, to help the City to identify and prioritize future management of resources and open space in the area. Ecologist's Scope of Basic Services Ecologist's natural resources specialists and engineers will complete the following tasks as Basic Services: ". 2335 Wt-Sl Highway 36 · St. Paul, MN 55"3 .612"636-4600 .

Identify and Map Natural Communijlea Based on information and aerial photos used to develop the AUAR, Ecologist will identify and outline the wetland and upland natural community areas in the study ares. It is estimated that five significant natural communities exist in the study area. Boundaries and acreage will be determined for each community. The sites will be clearly identified and labeled on aerial orthophotos. This information will be digitized, and provided to the City in digital and hard copy format with the final report. 2, Field Inventory Ecologist will complete a field inventory of each wetland and upland community identified in Step 1. The folloWing Information will be collected within each area: · Tree species composition · Shrub species composition · Ground cover speCies composition · Aquatic species composition · Wildlife observations, including sightings and indications of habitat quality · Disturbance indicators · Scenic qualities · Other information useful for management recommendations A Field Report will be completed for each community, and the information collected for each community will be provided to the City with the final report. The woodland communities will be inventoried In the Fall, 1998, and again in early Spring, 1999 to identify spring ephemerals and other early~blooming species. 3. Evaluation and Classification When the Field Inventory is completed, the Ecologist wirl classify the natural community areas surveyed based on ecological quality. Ecologist will use the same classification and ecological ranking system used by the ONR's County Biological Survey (CBS). The CBS program is nationally recognized for its work, and for the classification and ecological ranking system it has developed. The ecological ranking system grades each community like a report card, with an "A" being the highest quality and a "0" being the lowest. By using this system to Identify natural areas, the City has a technically sound set of information that can be easily used and interpreted by other natural resource profeSSionals for future planning and management. The ecological "grade~ and reference Information will be included in the GIS data files and described in the final report. " " .

At this point, it appears the basic plans are acceptable to the DNR and Department of Interior with the Lower St. Croix Management Agency Executive Director suggesting that the park areas revert back to a "natural" state. I do. not believe his statement reflects the sentiment of member agencies. The bridge alternative "C" would require City Park land to be constructed. Also, as can be seen in the bridge graphic, the bridge would impact the quality of recreation and open space experience of park users. These impacts and the relationship of the park to the bridge will have to worked out during park plan implementation and future bridge design. Attachments: Letters NPS, LSCMC, MnDNR . .

One Carlson Parkway North, Suite 150 Minneapolis MN 55447-4443 Re: Stillwater Aiple and Kolliner Properties Master Parks Plan Dear :Mr. Larson: . This will confirm our conversation yesterday. The Commission considers planning for these two sites to be premature until more is known about the proposed new four lane bridge and the disposition of the lift bridge. The philosophy of the Wild and Scenic River Act is to promote a "natural" appearance for properties within the boundaries of the Riverway, as viewed from the water. Under the General Management Plan, in effect since 1976, little could be done with either site except to let them revert to a "natural" state. However, the preferred alternative for the new Cooperative Management Plan will allow existing parks to be further improved. This could provide some scope for the Kolliner site, if it is a pre- existing park. Incidentally, you may wish to consult St. Croix County, since it has overlapping jurisdiction. u~ nce W.

The Metro Region has reviewed the infonnation you sent to us on June 25, 1998 regarding the City's proposals to redevelop the Kolliner and Aiple properties. Many ofDNR Waters comments were communicated at the meeting in May. I have asked other DNR disciplines for comments and input and received comments from our Section of Trails and Waterways. They support the public opportunities the plans will provide. Funding assistance could be available for a new boat launch if the site would be operated as free and equal access for all. There may be opposition, however, to constructing a boat launch at this property, depending on the fate of the Mulberry Point access and the results of the Cooperative Planning process that is still underway. Trails and Waterways also supports the installation ofa fishing pier, which likewise could be eligible for funding assistance. The railroad grade would present an excellent trail opportunity to connect Stillwater to the south. Local ~ail grant funding is a good possibility for this project. Scott Kelling, Trails and Waterways, (772-7937) IS eager to discuss opportunities to partner with the city on any of these public recreation projects. I noticed that this version of the options matrix shows the Tour boats moving to the north end of the property under all scenarios, however, on the concept alternatives drawings only option C. Shows relocation of the docks and large parking area. Has this changed from the original presentation? Re-use of the fertilizer building may be dependent on the zoning of that parcel, and whether a conditional use permit could be granted for a change in use. We look forward to another agency meeting on this subject. If yeu have <wy questions, please cont.'l.ct me at 772-7915.

CROIX FAllS, WISCONSIN 54024-0708 August 26, 1998 K18(SACN) Mr. Steve Russell Community Development Director City of Stillwater 216 North 4th Street Stillwater, Minnesota 55082 Dear Steve: This letter is St. Croix National Scenic Riverway's formal response to the revised alternatives and . preferred alternative recommended by SRF Consulting Group, Inc. on July 14, 1998. I understand that the City of Stillwater approved SRF's recommendation. We contacted Mr. Michael McGarvey of SRF to obtain the most current planning documents. In general, I endorse the concept of Alternative A for the Aiple property with minimum, low impact developments. I agree with public sentiment that trails, native plantings, and perhaps a picnic shelter would be appropriate for the Aiple property. More extensive and costly developments might not be suitable, but it is difficult to be more specific at this conceptual stage of planning. The proposals for Kolliner Park seem too ambitious for the space available and perhaps not in keeping with the "improving the natural enviroIllI1ent of the river." At any rate, site developments at both locations will require approval from various agencies with zoning and permitting responsibilities. Regarding the visitor center, we encourage the city of Stillwater to pursue such a facility if the city deems it to be in their best interests. As I stated at our meeting on July 2 with you and Mr. John Larson of SRF, the National Park Service is not interested in planning, building and operating a facility in the terra building on the Aiple property. From our perspective, visitor centers are very expensive to build and maintain and operate. A visitor center, to be justified, should meet a critical need to provide education and orient visitors to a resource. Often this can be accomplished in less expensive ways. Regarding the Aiple site, visitors are drawn to the downtown area of Stillwater - that is the ideal location for a visitor center. The terra building is not at a location that would draw these visitors. Finally, a 6000 square foot visitor center . \ . . . does not fit the conceptual framework of alternative A:, a facility of this size would require a larger parking lot in my opinion and drive more intensive developments that fit Concept D rather than A I have heard interest expressed in an interagency facility on numerous occasions since my arrival at St. Croix twelve years ago. While people have referred to this facility as a visitor center, it really functions as an office to provide services related to zoning, land use planning, and water surface use. It would be a one-stop location to obtain regulatory information. lbis function does not require a full-blown visitor center housing exlubits, an auditorium, etc. An interagency office could be located in any office building in cities situated along the lower riverway at a much lower cost. Finally, the planning for the Aiple Park and Kolliner Park should be fleXIble enough to accommodate any bridge crossing that might be proposed as a result of the current process to find a solution to the impasse over the St. Croix crossing. Please put me on the mailing list for future documents produced regarding plans for the two parks. If you have any questions, please call me at (715) 483-3284, extension 625. Thank you for your interest in seeking the comments of the National Park Service regarding the master plan for the Aiple Property and Kolliner Park. Sincerely, a~-e. Anthony L.

MEMORANDUM October 15, 1998 TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Tim Moore Engineering Technician SUBJECT: Aiple Lift Station Improvements DISCUSSION: Staff has prepared the plans and specifications for the Aiple Life Station Improvements. In order for this project to be completed before any spring flooding the next step in the process is to advertise for bids. The proposed bid date would be , November 5th with Council review of bids and award at the November 10th meeting. It will take approximately 14 weeks for the delivery of the items necessary for the lift station improvements, which will put us into February. The completion date for this project is March 31, 1999. In October 1997 Klayton requested that Council allow the expenditures for lift station improvements from the 1997 budget into the 1998 budget which will be used for the improvements. Staff recommends that Council approve the plans and specifications, order the improvement and authorize advertisement for bids for the lift station improvements. ACTION REQUIRED: If Council concurs with the recommendation, they should pass a motion adopting Resolution No. 98-_, ORDERING IMPROVEMENT, APPROVING PLANS & SPECIFICATIONS AND ORDERING ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS FOR AIPLE LIFT STATION IMPROVEMENTS (PROJECT 9820) , RESOLUTION NO. 98- ORDERING IMPROVEMENT, APPROVING PLANS & SPECIFICATIONS AND ORDERING ADVERTISEMENT FOR BIDS FOR AIPLE LIFT STATION IMPROVEMENTS (pROJECT 9820) WHEREAS, the City Engineer has prepared plans and specifications for the improvement of Aiple Lift Station and has presented such plans and specifications to the Council for approval; NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF STILL WATER, MINNESOTA: 1. Such improvement is hereby ordered as proposed in the Council resolution adopted October 20, 1998. ' 2. Such plans and specifications are hereby approved. 3. The City Engineer shall prepare and cause to be inserted in The Gazette and in the Construction Bulletin an advertisement for bids upon the making of such improvement under such approved plans and specifications. The advertisement shall be published for one day, shall specify the work to be done, shall state that bids will be received by the City Engineer until 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, November 5, 1998, at which time they will be publicly opened in the Council Chambers of City Hall by the City Clerk and Engineer, will then be tabulated and will be considered by the Council at 7:00 p.m., November 10, 1998, in the Council Chambers. Any bidder whose responsibility is questioned during consideration of the bid will be given an opportunity to address the Council on the issue of responsibility. No bids will be considered unless sealed and filed with the City Engineer and accompanied by a cash deposit, cashier's check, bid bond or certified check payable to the City Engineer for ten (10) percent of the amount of such bid.

Authority and Purpose for the Bond Issue T~e Bonds are being issued pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 475 and the City Charter. In addition, the Series 1998C Bonds are being issued pursuant to Mihnesota Statutes, Chapter 429. Th'e Series 1998B Bonds are being issued to finance the City's 1998 and 1999 capital projects. Page 5 lists the projects being financed by this issue. , 4. Principal Amount of Offering Th~ Series 1998C Bonds are being issued to finance the assessed portion of six imRrovement projects within the City. Th$ Series 1998B Bonds - $2,500,000 , The Series 1998C Bonds - $665,000 5. Repayment Term The Series 1998B Bonds will mature February 1, 1999 through 2019. The Series 1998C Bonds will mature Fetlruary 1, 2000 through 2009. 6. Term Bonds for Series 1998B We lare providing in Terms of Proposal for the Series 1998B, the option for underwriters to combine multiple maturities into Isingle term bonds, subject to mandatory redemption on the same maturity schedule provided in the Terms of Proposal. The advantage to the underwriter is that it provides a large block of bonds, which is more attractive to certain investors. This in turn 'is a benefit to the City since selling the larger blocks of bonds reduces the risk to . City of Stillwater, Minnesota October 14, 1998 . 7. Sources of Payment and Payment Cycles . 8.

(b) Rebate Requirements the underwriter, allowing them to lower their costs and the interest coupons. Since the bonds are being awarded on a competitive bid basis and awarded on the lowest true interest cost, the City will award the bonds tol the best bid regardless of whether term bQnds were chosen or not. Ttile Series 1998B Bonds are being paid from general ad valorem tax levies. The City made its first levy in 1997 in anticipation o~ this issue. Collection of taxes in 1998 will be used to make the February 1,1999 principal and interest payment. Thereafter, first-half collections of taxes will be used to make each August 1 interest payment and second-half collections of taxes plus surplus first-half collections of taxes will be used to make the subsequent February 1 principal arnd interest payment. Tthe Series 1998C Bonds are being paid from special assessments levied against benefited property. First-half collections of sRecial assessments will be used to make th'e August 1 interest payment and second- h~lf collections of special assessments plus a~y surplus first-half collections will be used to: make the subsequent February 1 p~ncipal and interest payment. For both issues, bonds maturing on or after February 1, 2007 will be callable on February 1, 2006 and any day thereafter at a 'price of par plus accrued interest. The City is currently rated "A2" by Moody's In~estors Service. An application will be m'ade for this issue to ensure continuation of a Moody's'rating. The City does not expect to issue over $10,000,000 in tax exempt obligations in 1998. Therefore, the Bonds are eligible for bank qualification. Issues which are bank- qi!Jalified typically receive slightly lower interest rates than issues which are not bank-qualified The Series 1998B Bonds and the Series 1998C Bonds are subject to the federal arbitrage requirements, which are Page 2 City of Stillwater, Minnesota October 14, 1998 . (c) Bona Fide Debt Service Fund (d) Economic Life . 11. Continuing Disclosure 12. Attachments . d~scribed in the summary package previously provided to the staff. The City expects to meet the spend-down r~quirements, thereby avoiding rebate. Continuous analysis of the funds must be made to assure compliance. The City uhdertakes its own rebate calculations. I The City must maintain a bona fide debt s~rvice fund for each issue or be subject to yield restriction. A bona fide debt service fund is a fund for which there is an equal matching of revenue to debt service expense, with a carry-over permitted equal td th+6e greater of the investment earnings ih the fund during that year or 1/12 of the d~bt service of that year. The Series 1998B Bonds have been structured so as to amortize the bonds over the respective useful lives of the projects b~ing financed as shown on page 6. Tl1erefore, they are within the economic life requirement. i F9r the Series 1998C Bonds, the average m'aturity of 5.59 years is within the eronomic life of the projects being financed by this issue. Tljlese issues are subject to the SEC rules om continuing disclosure. Under the rules neb underwriter may underwrite these issues on offer these bonds in the secondary market unless the City has pledged to p~ovide continuing disclosure of certain events throughout the life of these issues. Cbntinuing disclosure requires the City to p~epare an annual report and submit it to national repositories within a specific time period. The City has elected to provide its o~n continuing disclosure.

City of Stillwater, Minnesota October 14, 1998 I DISCUSSI0N The Series 1998B Bonds The Series 1998B Bonds are being issued pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 475 and the City Charter. Proceeds of this issue are being ~sed to finance the capital outlay needs of City departments listed on page 5. Page 6 shows the debt service schedule for this issue and breaks out the amount of principal being paid for e~ch project or set of projects with the same useful life (Columns 3-8). The issue has been structured to amortize the bonds over the useful life of the projects being financed. Column 13 of that same page shows the 105% overlevy, which is required by State law. The City made a 1997 levy in the amount of $133,710 in anticipation of this issue, which is being collected in 1998. This levy will pay the February 1, 1999 principal and interest payment. Because the levy was made as a debt service levy, it cannot be used to reduce the bond issue size but ~ust be used to pay debt service. The City included in its 1998, pay 1999 budget, $150,0001 for the 1998 capital outlay projects and $175,000 for the 1999 capital outlay projects, for a total 1998 levy of $325,000. The Series 1998B Bonds are structured around these levies. : The Series 1998C Bonds The Series 1998C Bonds are being issued pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapters 429 and 475. Proceeds from this issue are being used to fihance various improvement projects within the City. Special assessments totaling $645,863 were filed with interest accruing from November 15, 1998 and spread over terms of fiv~ and ten years in even annual principal payments. Interest on the unpaid balance is beipg charged at a rate of 7.0%. Pages 7 through 9 show the project assessment income for this issue. The composition of this issue is: Assessments Filed Costs of Issuance Underwriter's Discount $645,863 14,149 4,988 $665,000 Total Issue ! The schedule on page 10 shows the repayment of the Series 1998C Bonds. The assessment income is shown in column 8. Assuming no prepayments or delinquencies, a small surplus is expected in this fund over the life of the Series 1998C Bonds. The collections of special assessments each year should be sufficient to make the August 1 interest payment due in the collection year and subsequent February 1 princip~1 and interest payment coming due in the year of maturity. !

Dated October 20 I 1998 BY ORDER OF THE CITY COUNCIL Isl Morli Weldon Clerk . - iv- . EXHIBIT A 1998 AND 1999 CAPITAL PROJECTS . . A-I . . . HARMONY RESPECT DIGNITY October 2, 1998 Dear City Council: Over the past year or more,the Stillwater Human Rights Commission has developed a City Hate Crime Response Plan, to meet local and state human rights needs and responsibilities. That plan was approved by the City Council in January 1998. Since then the core Hate Crime Response Network has begun to develop. The core Network is comprised of Human Rights Commission members, the Commission's volunteer liaison with the City Police Department (Gary Campbell), and the Police Department staff. This core of Hate Crime Response Network volunteers agreed last spring to draft a postcard that could be used to inform a victim of bias abuse or hate crime that a Network of city staff and volunteers are ready to lend assistance. The postcard has now been produced and is enclosed. Please look over this card, and note the instructions on it. If you see an incident or someone comes to you complaining, please give them this card, instruct them to notify the police to investigate the incident and also to contact Gary or Louise for guidance on the matter. The City Police Chief may also be using this postcard to instruct the victim of an alleged incident to call Louise or Gary for support services. A basic plan outline is attached. If you have questions, please attend the October 28 workshop at the Stillwater City Hall at 6:00 pm. At this workshop we will also discuss the need for a Hate Crime Task Force. The workshop will be followed by the monthly Human Rights Commission meeting at 7:00 pm. Hate Crime Task Force A Task Force can serve to identify and coordinate the roles of various entities pertinent to hate crime incidents. While the Police Department is in charge of the criminal investigation, other entities may be needed to serve either party of the case. Having a plan, postcards and volunteers is not enough, especially since Human Rights Commissioners have only 2-year appointments. A Task Force would allow professionals to work with volunteers to build a long-lasting program. A Task Force can also serve a broader geographic area, with representatives from interested cities and townships, within the School District 834 area. The Winona Hate Crime Task Force is a model we will study 'at the October 28 workshop. The Stilhvater Human Rights Commission would be interested in hearing your ideas on who should be a part of the Hate Crime Task Force.Thank you for your assistance. m~~ Louise Watson Hate Crime Response Network Human Rights Commissioner cc: Dave Magnuson Stillwater Human Rights Commission' Stillwater City Hall' 216 North Fourth Street.

Daily News - Saturday, May 31,19971 \Alinona/regian Il New task force ~eekingmembers By Kim Seidel Winona Daily News Larry Lee Imows firsthand the pain hate crimes cause. . A gay male, Lee said he has re- ceived harassing telephone calls and his home and car have been vandalized. In 1994, Lee said he and his partner were living together, along with his three children; one of his children was physically at- tacked by another youth. . Within two years, Lee said his children decided to live with their mou\er in Wabasha because they were concerned for their safety in Winona. Lee didn't want to keep quiet about these crimes. He joined the Winona Human Rights Commission, which is now fonning the Hate Climes Task Force. Lee and another commis- sioner, Tom Parlin, are co-chairs of the task force. Parlin said he has not encoun- tered hate crimes like Lee has, pointing out that he is a hetero- sexual, white male who is mar- lied with a child. "I haven't experienced disClim- inatlon," Parlin said. "I have a concern what is socially just I . What is a hate crime? "'. ," " : ' .:: ' . In Minnesota, certain crimes are called hate crimes when tl\ey are committed against a person or group because of race, color, religion, gender, sexual orientation, age, disability or national ori- gin of the victim. Crimes that can be classified as hate crimes are criminal assault, trespass, damage to property, harassment or stalking. Hate crimes are based on fear, misw\derstand- ing or dislike of a certain group of people. Hate crimes reported in Winona: . 1994 - Hmong car damaged. . 1995 - Cross burning, . 199G - Graffiti; High school student relatIon- ship, white vs. black; black vs. Hmong fight; as- sault, white vs. Hispanic. What to do if )'OU are a victim: If you have been physically il'\iured, seek medi- cal attention first Regardless of whether you have been il'\iured, report the crime to your local police department wanted to make a difference." TI\e Hate Crimes Task Force received approval for its mission in January from the Winona City Council. Currently, the organiza- tion is seeking four to six volun- teer members. If you are a good listener, be- lieve in social justice and live within the city of Winona, you may be a candidate for the task force. Basically, the task force will provide support for victims of hate crimes. Victims will be re- ferred to the group by the Winona Police Department. "The police depmtment doesn't get the chance to offer a lot of support for the victims of hate 'crimes," said Dave Belz, adminis- trative officer at the Winona Po- lice Deprotment. "A lot of times, the \;ctin1S are left on the side- lines." Belz is senring as a liaison be- tween the task force and the WPD. The. Hate Crimes Task Force wUl maintain a community sys- tem to directly respond to the needs of the victims. All referrals will be kept confidential. Another important function of the task force will be to educate and increase awareness for resi- dents about hate crimes. "They don't Imow it's going on because nobody tells them," Par- lin said. Lee and Parlin hope to have new members selected by the end of the summer. A task force member will listen to the victim and assess whether they need any additional servic- es. "Personally, I think the most important thing we'll do is listen," Lee said. "We are going to provide a lis- tening presence," Parlin said.

Charter Commission Sept. 21, 1998 FYI Present: Tim Old, chairperson Kathy Czar, Chuck Donnelly, Steve Keister, Robert Kimbrel, Howard Lieberman and Mary Ruch Absent: Nance Purcell, and Don Valsvik Others: Katie O'Brien, Stillwater Gazette Mr. Old c~lled the meeting to order at 7 p.m. He welcomed guests Lindsey Berger and Ross Minnichsoffer, students from Stillwater Area High School American government and politics class. ; Approval of minutes: Ms. Ruch, seconded by Ms. Czar, moved approval of the minutes of July 20, 1998; Mr. Donnelly noted a correction to one reference to Ms. Ruch's name. Minutes as corrected 'rere unanimously approved. Conflict ofInterest update: Mr. Old reported that the City Council held the second reading of the provision on July 21. Mr. Keister saiCl he would like the Commission to revisit the issue in a few years, as he thought the provision ):vas weak in enforcement and watered down in that it exempted city employees. Ms. Czar noteq that the City Council was to adopt an enforcement mechanism by ordinance within 60 days after adoption of the Conflict of Interest amendment. Mr. Old will follow up on whether that has belen done. , Update on:ArticIe 507 - Publication of council proceedings Mr. Old "'{as to have discussed this issue further with City Clerk Modi Weldon. However, Ms. Weldon was busy with election duties, so Mr. Old asked that the matter be continued until the October meeting. Mr. Keister, seconded by Ms. Ruch, moved to continue the item until the October meeting; all in favor. A brief di'scussion ensued. Members were in consensus that Mr. Old should convey that the . Commission is concerned that not meeting the Charter's publication deadline may preclude citizen reqourse to Council action and to convey the Charter's position that is would be OK to publish minutes in unsigned, summary fonn in order to get the information out to the public in a timely fashion. Review of Guide of Charter Commissions Each merrtber commented on their thoughts after reviewing the Guide. All thought it was a very worthwhile and valuable resource. Some of the discussion centered on the implications for the upcoming city manager project, specifical~y the need to "sell" the project, which members felt they had not done a very good job of in the past. Mr. Kimbrel suggested assigning members to act as liaisons with individual City Council members. Ms. Ruch and Ms. Czar are putting together previously gained information . about the city manager proposal; it is hoped this can be worked through in three meetings beginning with the October meeting. Mr. Donnelly stated he would like to see some type of mission statement for the Commission to work from. Mr. Lieberman suggested that could be done is some form of "preamble" to the Charter. New business · Ms. Czar raised the issue of the Charter's current disclosure requirement for election contributions, 4.05. The current amount in the city Charter is $500; the state has changed its individual contribution limit to $300. She said she would like to see the Charter Commission recommend that the city's disclosure limit be changed to $100, although she noted that action may be too late for this year's election. After discussion, members were in agreement that the provision should be changed; it was the consensus to address the matter after the November 1998 elections. . There was discussion regarding attendance requirements for members. Mr. Old noted there is language in the state statute that missing three meeting may be reason to request a member's resignation. Mr. Keister volunteered to call Mr. Valsvik regarding attendance. · Mr. Keister asked whether the Commission's annual budget was sufficient for the city manager project or whether additional funding might be necessary. Ms. Ruch said she did not anticipate the need for any additional funds. Mr. Keister volunteered to check into the Commission's budget status. . Old business: · Aiple property: Mr. Lieberman and Ms. Czar are working on a draft of language regarding the Aiple property and the Charter requirements for disposition of city-owned land. Ms.Czar, seconded by Mr. Lieberman, moved to have that language ready for the October meeting; all in favor. · It was noted that Ms. Purcell had a history of Commission activities that she was going to provide for members. Mr. Old will follow up on that for distribution at the October meeting. Mr. Kimbrel, seconded by Ms. Czar, moved to adjourn at 8:50 p.m.; all in favor.

APPRO~AL OF MINUTES MOTION [by Gary Talbot to approve the minutes of 8/19198, seconded by Sharon Ridgway.' MOTION CARRIED.:, . , " .' . ' .. i OLD B6sINESS 1. Microphones - Steve reported that nobody had reserved microphones for the Lumberjack parade. Jerry commented that the parade has been shown 7 times a week since July and that common sense says it's. time to stop showing it. Steve said he'd look into it. 2. Editing Equipment - Steve indicated that the deck which had been re-installed broke down an hour later. There are 2 decks in for repair and the Access Center has one which has been loaned from Alpha Video. Steve said that some of the equipment is expected back by Thursday (Oct. 8), and with the loaner that both edit suites should be functioning again. Steve will report back as to whether any of the editing equipment is no longer able to be repaired. NEW BUSINESS 1. MediaOne Company Report - Steve reported that Internet service is starting to be available. The cable company is trying to figure out how they can get, the service across the river to Western Wisconsin. He said that currently the service is one-way; with outgoing information going over phone lines and incoming information coming over the cable lines at high speed. Once the system has been rebuilt the service will 9/30/98 Commission Meeting - Page 2 . be two-way. There will be a rate increase effective October 1st. Gary commented that we just had a rate increase and indicated that he plans to challenge this rate increase at the next Commission meeting. There was discussion about the issue of programs being played over and over and it was pointed out that it's not only the Lumberjack Days parade (and there were 2 versions of it) but that there is supposedly a 3 month cycle that Roy puts programs on and that this seems to be a long period of time to see programs repEj,atedly. Karen commented that new programming should supercede old programming for air time, and that producers should have equal opportunity for air time. Steve will check on the issue of number of times programs are being played. Gary commented on a report that the cable company sent to the Commission regarding revenues generated by our Cities individually and that the percentages coincide very closely with the subscriber counts. The percentages he quoted were: Stillwater 68%; Oak Park Heights 18%; Bayport 11%, Stillwater Township 1% and Bay town Township 1 %. These numbers would reflect pretty closely the breakdown of subscribers and franchise fees generated by each entity. . 2. Access Center Report - was received. Editing equipment was discussed. 3. Corporation Report Karen reported that they did a program of a meeting regarding the St. Croix River Crossing. It was again stressed that all producers should be treated equally as far as channel time. Also that Valley Access Community programming represents a number of producers, not just one, so they are finding that their current time slot isn't really enough anymore. It was reported that the Corporation did give Don the grant for the Lumberjack Parade. The Corporation has changed their meeting nights to having some on Tuesdays and some on Wednesdays, to accomodate people's schedules, and Commission members are encouraged to come to a meeting sometime. Karen thanked Art Edhlund for meeting with the people who are with the new sports facility. Karen stated that grant requests must be made in person at a Corporation board meeting. The students in the audience had questions about making programs and about the grants and this was explained to them. . . . . 9/30/98 Commission Meeting - Page 3 The City of Stillwater, through Dave Magnuson, has asked that the Commission include in our franchise negotiations the hooking up of I-Net seNice to the new sports complex. The City had mentioned it earlier in NeedsAssessment information butitis not listed specifically in the proposal at this time. The Commission plans to include this and Kathy will let the cable attorneys and Dave Magnuson know. 4. Cable Commission Business a. Budget Report - Some figures are together; not ready to report. b.
