STAFF REPORTS
1. Finance Director Deblon reported Washington County has provided the City with "very preliminary"
numbers for payable 1998 taxes and they are subject to change. Due to the elimination of the
preferred rate limit of one parcel for the C/I parcels, the State has extended the September 1 deadline
for the County to complete valuations to October 1; therefore, the County will not have revised
numbers prior to the City's September 15 certification deadline. Because an accurate projection is not
possible without hard numbers from the County, she recommended the Council set the levy at the 5%
increase (as discussed at budget workshops). The Council can always reduce the tax levy at the Truth
in Taxation hearing, but they can't raise the tax levy.
Finance Director Deblon also reported that she and the City Attorney had met and reviewed the
proposals received for Bond Counsel Requests for Proposals (RFP's). The following firms submitted
proposals: Best & Flanagan; Dorsey & Whitney; Faegre & Benson; Kennedy & Graven & Leonard;
and Street & Deinard. She asked if Council would like to individually review the proposals prior to
having a staff recommendation for Council at the September 16 meeting.
Finance Director Deblon next discussed the financing of the City share of the following projects: L.I.
321, Hazel Street; L.I. 328, 1997 Streets; and L.I. 331, Croixwood Boulevard. She recommeded a
permanent transfer of $756,000 from the capital project fund #550 to finance the City share ofL.I.
321, L.I. 328, and L.I. 331, and an advance of$83,510 from the same fund to be reimbursed when
bonds are sold in 1998. She also recommended approving the IRS reimbursement resolution for L.I.
. 331.

Motion by Councilmember Zoller, seconded by Councilmember Cummings approving permanent
transfer of $756,000 from the capital project fund #550 to finance the City share ofL.I. 321, L.I. 328,
and L.I. 331, and an advance of $83,510 from the same fund to be reimbursed when bonds are sold in
1998. All in favor.
.
Councilmember Thole arrived at 4:43 p.m.
Finance Director Deblon also reported Washington County has submitted the fmal billing for the
reconstruction of McKusick Road and Neal Avenue (Agreement with County made in 1992) The
County is requesting an additional $34,704.67 because project estimate was too low. She stated there
is approximately $16,000 left in this project fund. The final County billing is for $34,704.67, leaving
$18,704 unfunded. She recommended transferring the $18,704 from the capital project fund #550
should Council approve paying the additional cost.
Motion by Councilmember Zoller, seconded by Councilmember Bealka authorizing transfer of $18,704
from the capital project fund #550 for the reconstruction of McKusick Road and Neal Avenue fmal
payment to Washington County.

2. Captain Bell was available to answer questions regarding the memo included in Council packet from
CSO Jacobson regarding the monitoring of noise levels as follow-up on complaints of excessive
noise caused by the Market Car Wash at 1732 Market Drive, PD Pappys at 422 Mulberry Street, E.,
and the Andiamo boats on the St. Croix River. A decimeter was borrowed from the Minnesota
Pollution Control Agency and the MPCA assisted in interpreting the results.
The complainant regarding the Andiamo Boats stated it was not a regular problem; the boats
sometimes have bands that are loud. CSO Jacobson was unable to monitor because there is no set
schedule when the excessive noise occurs. The monitored levels of the car wash fell below the
daytime limits for noise. No cars used the carwash in the evening, so she was unable to monitor
night levels. However, traffic alone exceeded the night limit of 50 decibels.
CSO Jacobson monitored PD Pappy's from Pioneer Park. The noise levels ranged from 52-76
decibels. She monitored after 10 p.m., which has a L50 standard of 50 decibels. Based on the band
down time readings and the playing readings, the band exceeded the limit.
Council suggested the Police Department consider purchasing a decimeter. Jurisdiction of activities
on waterways was discussed.
3. Parks & Recreation Director Thomsen reported the City advertised for bids and only one bid was
received for the Lily Lake Arena roof repair (Durand Builders Service, Inc.). He requested approval to
hire Matt Carlson as a temporary laborer. He stated the installation of picnic shelters at Ramsey Park
was included in the budget. (Action on consent agenda)

4. Civil Engineer Sanders reported the bids were received for the Fourth St. Ravine project. However,
bids came in $40,000 over engineering estimates. The project will be scaled down to more closely
meet the estimates. M.l Raleigh Truckin', Inc. was the low bidder. He also updated Council on the
striping of city streets.
OTHER BUSINESS
1. Mainstream Development Partnership: Request for assistance for Maple Island market/grocery store
project.
Community Development Director Russell reviewed the Phase II plans for the reuse of the south
portion of the Maple Island plant building. This phase includes a 20,000 sq. ft. grocery store on the
Main Street level and a second level of 20,000 sq. ft. of office space.
Mainstream Development Partnership is requesting the City improve the existing gravel lot east of
the building and reconfigure the public Maple Island lot to provide a pedestrian connection between
Main Street and Lowell Park (eliminates 13 parking spaces). The parking requirement for the
proposal is 167 spaces; 117 are provided in the gravel lot area. There would be some complimentery
parking use of the office use and other downtown uses during the peak downtown demand Friday
evening through Sunday. He stated the parking lot plan is consistent with the Lowell Park Plan and
the purpose of the land purchase from the railroad.
.
Community Development Director Russell explained it is envisioned the tax increment generated by
the project would be used to improve the Water Street parking lot. In order to determine the TIF
revenues generated by the project and costs of the parking lot, plans would need to be prepared and a
project value established. A parking use agreement would have to be worked out with the grocery
store.
He reported the reuse plan is being reviewed for planning permits by the Downtown Parking
Commission, Heritage Preservation Commission and Planning Commission.
Community Development Director Russell stated Vern Stefan and Tim Stefan, Mainstream
Development Partnership; Joel Ahlstrom, Riverside Market (retailer); and Ron Klehr, Store
Development Manager for Nash Finch Company (wholesaler) were in attendance to speak to the
project.
Vern Stefan presented background information on Phase I and requests for assistance for Phase II.
Tim Stefan, architect for the project, provided proposed Phase II building design elements.
Joel Ahlstrom explained the store will be designed for convenience of the shopper and concern for
excellent service to the customer.
.
Community Development Director Russell recommended Council review the Phase II developers
plan and direct staff to prepare parking lot plan/cost estimates and estimate of resulting TIF revenues.

SUBJECT: Authorize Advertisement for
1 ton Truck Purchase
DISCUSSION:
The 1997 budget includes 530,000 for the purchase of a 1 ton truck for Public
Works. This truck will be outfitted to do cul-de-sac snowplowing and sanding. The
estimated price of the price exceeds $25,000 which requires the City to request formal
bids or purchase off the state contract. In this case, the state contract does not appear to
have a truck that will suit our needs.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that Council give staff authority to commence advertisement
for a new truck.
.
ACTION REQUIRED:
If Council concurs with the recommendation, Council should pass a motion
authorizing the advertisement for bids for a 1 ton plow truck for Public Works.

The current hydraulic jack has failed and inspection has indicated that the cost to repair this jack is in excess
of $1 ,000. A new jack is estimated to cost no more than $2,000.00. The existing jack is 20-25 years old
and does not appear to be worth $1,000 to attempt to repair this old jack.

Re: Janitorial Services for City Hall
Background
In June of this year, staff received proposals from several cleaning services for the expanded City
Hall complex. Since February, the building janitorial services have been performed by a part-
time, temporary employee. The services of part-time staff were sufficient in the old building,
however, now that the construction and re-modeling is substantially complete, they have been
unable to maintain and adequately clean what is now a considerably larger building.
During this process, staff have evaluated the benefits of retaining a professional cleaning service,
versus the option of hiring a another permanent full-time employee to perform the work. While
many cities use permanent staff to perform this work, more than half have opted for professional
cleaning services. A full time employee may be able to take on additional duties that a cleaning .
service would not ordinairly handle. However, by contracting the work out, the City will be able
to avoid additional equipment costs, in addition to the cost of employee benefits, and worker's
compensation costs and liability. Since professional cleaning companies In fact, there are areas
in the new building that are not being cleaned at all.
always schedule two people to clean buildings this size, we should also be able to maintain a
cleaner building than we could with just one employee.
Therefore, staff recommends that Council approve the attached agreement with RC. Cleaning.
We have put together a nine month agreement as a "trial period" for contract services, at a total
cost of $30,341.48. At the end of this period, staff will revisit the issue of whether a service or a
full-time employee would best suit the cleaning and maintenance needs of City Hall.
Recommendation
Council approval of the attached Janitorial Services Agreement, between the City of Stillwater
and H.C. Cleaning, for the period from October 1, 1997 through June 30, 1998, for a total of
$30,341.48.

MEMORANDUM

Mayor and Council
FROM:
City Coordinator
SUBJECT:
Skateboarding
DATE:
September 12, 1997
Discussion:
As you will recall the Capital Outlay budget for 1998 includes $8000 for skateboarding. It is
anticipated that the money would be used to blacktop some area(s) and to purchase some equipment.
Staff will be meeting or corresponding with ISD 834 officials over the next few months to try to
. establish sites for skateboarding.
I bring this up at this time because some of our youth were using the the parking lot located at
McKusick Lake Road and Owens Street parking lot (across the street from Gannon's) for a
skateboard facility. However, the activity was stopped (after about 3-4 weeks of "looking the other
way") on the advise of the City's Loss Risk Control specialist. The specialist said that the City's
liability was at risk if we allowed the use of homemade equipment and/or did not properly supervise
the activity. It is unfortunate that this had to be done but staff was concerned about the risk.
I have had three phone calls from parents or citizens who are disappointed that the activity was
stopped. Especially since the youth appeared to be acting responsibly and the parking lot was a
better alternative for skateboarding than say the downtown area or on certain streets. I have told the
people what we will be working on and that hopefully we will find a solution to the problem for next
year. I also told them that I would be discussing this with you at the meeting Tuesday.
I can expand on this more fully at the meeting Tuesday.

SUBJECT: Skateboarding at Laurel and Owens
Street parking lot.
DATE: September 3, 1997
I have been advised by the City's Loss Risk Control specialist that the City should not allow the
skateboarding at the Laurel and Owens Street parking lot to continue. Please have one of your
officers meet with the skateboarders to let them know that we are sorry but the equipment must be
removed.
For your information, the City will be meeting with ISD 834 officials over the next few months to
determine if a facility or facilities can be developed for the skateboarders. Hopefully we will be able
to come up with something that will provide the young people with a way to let them enjoy their
sport.

Stillwater, MN 55082
Dear Mr. Kriesel,
I'm writing about skateboarding in the City of Stillwater. My wife, Lonnie
Lovness has spoken to you on the subject and we appreciate your answering our
questions about the parking lot near Gannon's. We are both business owners in
Stillwater and have a keen interest the city's future.
Our 14-year-old son is an avid skateboarder and enjoys the opportunity to
occasionally skate with his friends in a private yard or driveway, or at the lot on
OWens and McCusick Road. We discourage him and his friends from skating on public
sidewalks and streets, but the reality is that there are a limited number of private
areas that have enough space for the activity.
We realize that in allowing use of public areas for skateboarding there are
liability issues that can be daunting. Even so, it would seem that if the kids have
no designated public place to skate, they'll do it where it might create problems
for others. Perhaps the City Council should consider development of an area where
skaters can do their thing, similar to the lot near Gannon's. Whether the area would
have ramps and structures is not as important as just having a place to skate.
I hope the Council will consider this need and begin an evaluation and
information-gathering process. The enclosed material may be helpful, and if we can
assist in any other way please let us know.
Sincerely,
\\~

A new place for skateboards in Newport?
By Bob Ottviano
support from Councilman Dennis
McCoy, they are asking the city
administration to evaluate a short
list of prospective sites.
At the top of that list is Hunter
Park, off Van Zandt Avenue, just
south of the Farewell Street off-
ramp from the Newport Bridge.
On Victory Day, the three coun-
cil members kicked alternatives
around at an informal meeting at
Sardella's RestauranL Skate-
boards lined up against the wall
behind them, six teenage boys sat
at the bar, nursing Cokes, letting
the adults do most of the talking"
Sid Abbruzzi spoke for the
skateboard set. Abbruzzi is the co-
owner of Water Brothers Surf and
Skate on Memorial Boulevard,
arguably the largest skateboard
dealer on Aquidneck Island.
P l:frotti Park is out, but
Hunter Park !!lay soon be
in as a playground for
skatebuarders 1ll Newpurt.
At last nIght's meeting, held af-
ter presstlme, the Newport City
., Councll was expected to order
that signs be posted at Perrotti
l'ar\\ restricting the use of skate.
boards. Council action followed a
written complaint from Newport
retailer David Leys that skate-
boarders had "taken over" the
wa terfron t park, making it unsafe
for pedestrians"
But even as the signs are going
up, council members Richard
Sardella and James Baccari are
leading a push to build a skate-
board park on city property With
)1:
The young people in attendance
were a small sample of those who
had an imerest in the matter,
Abbruzzi said. "I could have put
300 skateboarders in this room,"
he saitL "Everyone agrees that
skateboarders have to have a
place to skate""
Abbruzzi wasn't sure that the
Easton's Beach parking lot was
that place. Responding to a sug-
gestion made by both Baccari and
Sardella last week, Abbruzzi felt
that the area was overexposed to
the elements" He added that other
summertime activities might "get
in the way" of skaters.
The rear corner of Newport Jai
Alai's parking lot on Admiral
Kalbfus Road was Abbruzzi's
choice. "It's in the middle of no-
where, where it's not going to
bother anyone," he said. Sardella
disagreed, saying that plans for a
10-screen cineplex in that lot al-
most certainly ruled out any other
uses.
Regardless of location,
Abbruzzi said a skate park
wouldn't take up much turf: a
space of 75 yards by 75 yards, or
"half the size of a double tennis
court, could accommodate all the
kids (who want to skateboard) in
Newport," he said.
Liability is a potential stum-
bling block. In past years, similar
proposals for creating a skate-
board park in Newport foundered
when the dty's insurer, Interlocal
Risk Management Trust, warned
against the threat of lawsuits
from injured skaters.
McCoy said the city administra-
tion would be asked to reevaluate
questions of liability" He also
noted that other states have laws
that limit their exposure to legal
action"
California may suon be one of
those states" The California stare
senate is now considering a bill
that would add skateboarding to
a list of hazardous recreational
~lctivities such as basketball and
hand-gliding"
"Being on this list protects lo-
cal governments against legal ac-
tion," Miki Vuckovich said"
Vuckovich is managing editor of
Transworld, based in Oceanside,
Calif, one of the largest skate-
boarding magazines in North
America"
That protection only applies to
injureu parties who are 14 or
ulder, Vuckovich saitL Parents or
guardians of younger skaters
could still sue, he admitted"
But in his experience, they
don't: He said that California has
more than 50 skateboard parks,
public and private, most uf which
were built within the last fil"e
years. During that time, there
hasn't been a single lawsuit stem-
ming from a skateboarding injury,
he said" -

. but recess from 6 - 8 p.m.; or

Re: Purchase of equipment and software for Local Area Network
Background
As directed by Council at the July 15, 1997 meeting, staff has completed the bidding process for
the purchase of the workstations, servers, communications equipment, and software needed to
complete the installation of the City's local area network (LAN).
The bids for the equipment were as follows:
Bidder
Workstations Servers
Comm Equip Software
Total
Ultimate Data $39,995
$28,930
$8,729
$6,140
$83,795
Comark Int'l
$35,224
$39,733
$6,957
$6,553
$87,467
Consultant's Estimate
$78,663
Due in part to the low level of bidder participation in the process, the bids received exceeded the
estimated total provided to Council and staffby our consultants in July. However, both bids
were basically in conformance with or below state contract prices, with the exception of their
prices for the additional workstations required for the LAN. As an alternative, we have solicited
a quote for the same workstations from Gateway, Inc. (recommended as one of the best p.c.
"brands" by Imagineering), of $22,282.00, excluding sales tax.
City Attorney Magnuson has advised staff that the purchase of the Gateway workstations outside
of the bidding process will not violate the Uniform Contracting Laws--the original bid
specifications included provisions for the rejection of a bid in total or in part, and the total cost of
the Gateway equipment is beneath the $25,000 ceiling established by the statutes.
Conclusion
By accepting the low bidder's quote (with the rejection of the low bidder's workstation pricing in
favor of the Gateway equipment), the equipment and software purchases for the City Hall LAN
l
J
total $66,082, excluding tax, which is well under Imagineerings original estimate. As an update
to information provided to Council in July, staff anticipates the costs of the initial network '.
implementation to be as follows:
Servers, Comm. Equip.
Workstations, Software
$70,377 (including tax)
Upgrade and Connectivity
of the AS400
$4,000 - $6,000
Consulting, Installation
$30,000 - $32,000
Staff Training
$6.000 - $8.000
$110,377 - $116,377
Recommendation
Staff recommends that (1) Council receive the bids and award the contract for LAN equipment
and software to Ultimate Data, Inc., rejecting their bid for computer workstations, and accepting
the remainder, for a total of $43,800.00 plus tax, and (2) Council approve the purchase of
10 computer workstations from Gateway, Inc., for a total of $22,282.00 plus tax.
.
Note: The City Coordinator will provide information to Council on the budgeting for the LAN
during the Tuesday meeting.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council rp
FROM: Diane Deblon, Finance Director
DATE: September 12, 1997
SUBJECT: Bond Counsel
BACKGROUND
Staff has previously sent out request for proposals for bond counsel services to eight legal firms.
We received a response from five of those firms.
. ANALYSIS
All of the proposals received were reviewed and evaluated as to the firm's experience. From the
information provided in the proposals, Dorsey & Whitney acted as bond counsel for 462
Minnesota bond issues during 1994 thru 1996. While all of the firms have experience with bond
issuance, no other firm came close to the volume of bond issuance that Dorsey & Whitney have.
In regards to fees and pricing, most firms structured their fees with a minimum of $2,000 and
increasing with the size of the bond issue. Dorsey & Whitney also suggested a maximum fee of
$4500 regardless of issuance size. (None of the other firms had a maximum.) And all the firms
charge additionally for out-of-pocket expenses.
CONCLUSION
The city has considerable experience working with the Dorsey & Whitney firm and staff has
always been extremely satisfied with their responsive and professional service. Further, the
RFP's support the selection of the firm due to their high level of experience as bond counsel both
in Minnesota and nationally.
RECOMMENDATION
. Staff is recommending the City Council appoint the firm of Dorsey & Whitney as the city's bond
counsel.

Introduction
Training is an important aspect in the public safety disciplines of police and fire. Developing and
maintaining skills is vital to this area of public service. In recent years, meeting requirements and
departmental needs for training has become increasingly difficult due to the lack of adequate and
available training facilities in the Washington County vicinity.
New developments in public safety training systems have improved the training available to police officers
and fire fighters through the use of computer simulations. These systems require staff to assess a
situation similar to one they may encounter on the job, make a decision and act on that decision. This
type of training provides the student with realistic situations in a controlled environment and immediate
feedback from the instructor. The system can then be reset for the next student. The benefits of
improved training include increased public safety, decreased risk to public safety personnel and
decreased potential for lawsuits. .
With these issues in mind, the Public Safety Training Facility Committee proposes a cooperative venture
to build a Public Safety Training Facility to serve Washington County public safety departments.
Training Needs
Police
· Classroom, defensive tactics, firearms, traffic stop simulations and tear gas exposure .
· Firearms training should include shooting for accuracy and shooting with a decision-making
component
Fire
· Classroom and hands-on training (fire suppression, smoke orientation, water rescue, hazardous
materials drills and use of equipment such as ladders, hoses and connections)
SWAT
· Classroom and hands-on training (repelling, defensive tactics, tactical team movement, incident
simulations and firearms training)
\ Other
\ Training is also needed for management, emergency medical services and K-9 units
\
Current Training Arrangements
· Currently each department conducts its own training and has its own instructors and equipment
· Locating training facilities in the Washington County vicinity is becoming increasingly difficult
· As a result, training public safety staff requires significant overtime and travel costs
· Many departments are providing less training than they feel is necessary because facilities are not
available
· Other communities in the metro areas are facing the same problems
Police
· Greatest challenge is in locating fire arms training facilities .
· Current facilities in the Washington County vicinity are at maximum capacity
Zoning restrictions at outdoor ranges limit the frequency, time of use and type of weapons permitted
· Low light shooting is more difficult to accomplish at outdoor ranges
· Liability of errant rounds leaving the range area could be significant
,
-
.
Fire
· Fire departments are facing many of the same issues as police departments, particularly the lack of
adequate trai~ing facilities
· Few fire towers are ayailable in the Washington County vicinity
· Few abandoned buildings are available for use in training exercises and are increasingly costly to use
· Vehicle drivers must train at distant driving ranges or use local parking lots during evening hours
SWAT
· Training facilities currently being used by SWAT teams do not allow for tactical team movement,
shooting while in motion or use of high-powered fire arms
Options for Meeting Training Needs
Option One: Build a Joint Public Safety Training Facility
This option involves building a joint training facility for police officers and fire fighters which is similar
to the facility being planned for construction in Edina. The facility would:
· Offer state-of-the-art training for police officers and fire fighters in indoor and outdoor training areas
· Include common areas and areas designed to meet the specific training needs of each discipline
· Be suitable for holding hazardous materials drills, training SWAT teams, K-9 units, EMS and drivers
of public safety vehicles
· Best be able to meet the mandated training requirements and specific training needs of police and
fire departments in Washington County
· Provide realistic training scenarios through the use of computer simulations
. Advantages to building a joint training facility include:
· Availability (24 hours)
· Convenience (located within Washington County)
· Custom design
· Potential for other uses of the facility
· Improved training of public safety personnel
· Ability to hold interdepartmental and interdisciplinary training exercises
· Potential to create county-wide training standards
· Potential to strengthen relationships between departments
· Enhancement of cross-jurisdictional response
· Single site required
· Cost savings to departments
· Decreased duplication across departments
· Rental revenue will support maintenance costs
· Decreased potential for lawsuits
Disadvantages to building a joint training facility include the following:
· Significant up-front capital costs
· Locating a site for the facility may be difficult
.

,
,
Option Two: Build a Joint Public Safety Training Facility Incrementally
This alternative proposes development, in phases, of the same facility described under Option One. .
The facility would:
· Offer state-of-the-art training for police officers and fire fighters in indoor and outdoor training areas
· Eventually include common areas and areas designed to meet the specific training needs of each
discipline
· Eventually be suitable for holding hazardous materials drills, training SWAT teams, K-9 units,
EMS and drivers of public safety vehicles
· Eventually be able to meet the mandated training requirements and specific training needs of
police and fire departments in Washington County
· Provide realistic training scenarios through the use of computer simulations
Advantages to incrementally building a joint training facility include the following:
· Availability (24 hours) *
· Convenience (located within Washington County) *
· Custom design
· Potential for other uses *
· Space for the postponed portion of the facility will have been set aside
· Improved training of public safety personnel *
· Ability to hold interdepartmental training exercises *
· Potential to create county-wide training standards *
· Potential to strengthen relationships between departments *
· Enhancement of cross-jurisdictional response *
· Single site required
· Lower initial cost than required for Option One .
· Cost savings to departments *
· Decreased duplication across departments *
· Rental revenue will support maintenance costs *
· Decreased potential for lawsuits *
(* These items will provide only limited benefits until the training facility has been completed)
Disadvantages to incrementally building a joint training facility include:
· Significant up-front capital costs
· Increased planning costs
· Increased building costs
· Locating a site for the facility may be difficult
· Potential for scheduling conflicts due to smaller initial size
· Until the facility is completed, the training needs of one discipline will not be met
· Potential for the facility not to be completed
Option Three: Build Separate Facilities for Police and Fire Training
This alternative proposes development of a training facility for police departments in one location and fire
departments in another. Each training facility would be similar to the facility described under Option One,
with duplication of areas such as parking, classroom, officers, lockers and showers which would be
included in both facilities. These facilities would:
· Offer state-of-the-art training for police officers and fire fighters in indoor and outdoor training areas
· Include areas designed to meet the specific training needs of police and fire departments
· Be suitable for holding hazardous materials drills, training SWAT teams, K-9 units, EMS and drivers .
of public safety vehicles
Be able to meet the mandated training requirements and specific training needs of police and fire
departments in Washington County
· Provide realistic training scenarios through the use of computer simulations

Advantages to building separate facilities for police and fire training include the following:
· Availability (24 hours) *
· Convenience (located within Washington County) *
· Custom design
· Potential for other uses *
· Improved training of public safety personnel *
· Ability to hold interdepartmental and interdisciplinary training exercises *
· Potential to create county-wide training standards *
· Potential to strengthen relationships between departments *
· Enhancement of cross-jurisdictional response *
· May be easier to site two smaller facilities rather than a single large facility
· Lower initial cost than required for Option One
· Cost savings to departments *
· Decreased duplication across departments *
· Rental revenue will support maintenance costs *
· Decreased potential for lawsuits *
(* These items will provide only limited benefits until both training facilities have been completed)
Disadvantages to building separate training facilities include:
· Significant up-front capital costs
· Increased planning costs
· Increased building costs
· Locating sites for the facilities may be difficult
· Until both facilities are completed, the training needs of one discipline will not be met
· Potential for both facilities not to be completed
Option Four. Pursue Options for a Regional Training Facility
This option involves partnering with neighboring communities to build a regional public safety training
facility. Some discussion has taken place regarding development of an east metro regional law
enforcement training facility. This facility would:
· Offer state-of-the-art training for law enforcement officers
· 8e able to meet mandated police training requirements
· Provide realistic training scenarios through the use of computer simulations
Advantages to building a regional training facility include the following:
· Availability (24 hours) *
· Custom design *
· Improved training of police officers *
· Ability to hold interdepartmental training exercises *
· Potential to create training standards *
· Potential to strengthen relationships between departments *
· Enhancement of cross-jurisdictional response *
· Lower initial cost due to a lower cost share for Washington County communities
· Cost savings to departments *
· Decreased duplication across departments *
· Rental revenue will support maintenance costs *
· Decreased potential for lawsuits *
. (* Most items will provide only limited benefits as the needs for fire fighter training will not be met under
this proposal)
4
\
,
Disadvantages to building a regional training facility include:
· Significant up-front capital costs
· Increased maintenance and life span costs
· Locating a site for the facility may be difficult
· Limited control over design of the facility
· Limited control over operation of the facility
· Training needs of fire fighters will not be met
· Potential for scheduling conflicts due to larger number of users
· Less convenient if the facility is located outside Washington County
· Larger staff will be needed to run a facility this size
.
Option Five: Private Development of a Public Safety Training Facility
This option proposes development of a public safety training facility by investors in the private sector. The
facility would be owned by the developer and rented to a Washington County joint-powers organization on
a long-term basis. Any of the facilities described in Options One through Four could be built under this
alternative.
The advantage to development of a public safety training facility by private investors is:
· No up-front costs
Additional advantages also apply, depending on which type of facility is built.
Disadvantages to private sector development of a public safety training facility include:
· Limited control over design
· Limited control over facility
· Lease renewal will be at the discretion of the developer
Additional disadvantages also apply I depending on which type of facility is built.
.
Option Six: Continue Current Training Arrangements
Option Six involves continuing current training arrangements. Public safety representatives have
indicated that this option is not adequate to meet either mandated training requirements or the
individual training needs of departments in Washington County.
Advantages to continuing current training arrangements include:
· No up front or maintenance costs
· No responsibility for maintenance of a facility
· Will not have to locate a site for a facility
Disadvantages to continuing current training arrangement include:
· Training needs will not be met
· Decline in available training sites is expected to continue
· Decline in opportunities to participate in training is expected to continue
· Inability to meet training mandates
· Limited control over use of Sheriff's outdoor firing range
· No control over use of others' ranges
· Lead contamination at outdoor ranges may contribute to the pollution of soil and groundwater
· Liability for the safety of staff and the public will increase if adequate training is not provided
· Inadequate training may increase the potential for lawsuits

MEMORANDUM
TO: mayor and Council
FROM: City Coordinator
SUBJECT: 1997 - 98 Lily Lake Arena
management agreement
DATE: September 12, 1997
Discussion:
Attached is the proposed ice arena management agreement between the City of Stillwater and St.
Croix Boat and Packet Co for the 1997-98 season. The agreement is the same as last year including
the rental fees of $12,000 as requested by Richard Anderson. According to Mr. Anderson the
operations incurred a $2000 - $3000 loss last year (financial statements for the 1996-97 season will
be presented to the City by St. Croix Boat and Packet sometime in October). I believe St. Croix
Boat and Packet Co. has performed very well over the past three years and would highly recommend
that the agreement be renewed.
Recommendation:
Council approve Lily Lake Arena management agreement with St. Croix Boat and Packet.

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and Council
FROM: City Coordinator
SUBJECT: City share of costs for treatment of
Lily lake
DATE: September 12, 1997
Discussion:
For the past three years the City has paid about 60% of the costs for weed/algae treatment of Lily
Lake. The rationale for City participation is that Lily Lake is a recreational lake and is available to
the public and not just adjacent property owners. The costs (City share) have been about $1200 per
year. The homeowners are requesting that the City also participate in the cost of this years treatment.
The requested amount is 60% of $2013.48 or $1208.09.
In the past the City has paid the total bill and has collected the homeowners share from the
homeowners. The request for this year is to have the City pay only its share of the costs and the
homeowners would pay the bill. I agree with this concept because it eliminates the need to confirm
payment of the individual homeowners share.
Recommendation:
Council consider participating in treatment costs for Lily Lake in the amount of$1208.09.

COMMENTS ON THE FORMATION OF BROWNS CREEK WATERSHED
DISTRICT
The City of Stillwater has a number of comments on the proposed creation of a
watershed district for the Browns Creek drainage area. As everyone is certainly aware,
Browns Creek has had a number of difficulties over the past year concerning
management. The City of Stillwater is of the opinion that it is of vital importance
someone take the leadership in managing this watershed. Stillwater was generally in
favor of Washington County taking this leadership role for a number of reasons.
Washington County already represented some of the planning issues for the townships in
Browns Creek. Members of the watershed have representation at the County Board level.
The County SWCD representatives that were managing Browns Creek issues were
familiar with those issues. And finally, the County had financial mechanisms available to
instigate improvements and necessary studies.
The proposal to create a watershed district has merit in that it too will accomplish
some of the things that Washington County could accomplish in the present situation.
However, there are a number of problems which we see as follows.
1. Browns Creek Watershed District would be among the smallest districts in the State
of Minnesota. The small size, coupled with the relatively high overhead cost of
running a watershed district will lead to excessive tax rates for this service. Also a
district of this size, although it has unique problems and difficulties, will be
challenged in meeting these issue without having competent, highly-skilled staff or
hiring such. Stillwater is concerned that this district will be too small and recommend
the concept the combining this with another district or another WMO be further
explored.
.
2. Residents in the City of Stillwater will pay a disproportionate cost for the operation
and maintenance of the watershed district. The City of Stillwater will have a very
small proportion of the total land area in the watershed, probably less than 25%. In
contrast, well over 50% ofthe total tax base of the watershed will reside in Stillwater.
Also over 50% of the population ofthe watershed will be Stillwater residents. Given
that the City of Stillwater, over the years, through its engineering department and
consulting services, has dealt with most of the water problems within City boundaries
and most of the issues which will probably face the proposed watershed district will
come from outside the City of Stillwater. This will lead to a situation where the City
of Stillwater will in a sense subsidizing the rural areas to complete storm water
management plans and fix water quality and quantity problems which lie out ofthe
city boundaries. If a district is created, it would be imperative that the cost of studies
and improvements for any area or problem be charged directly to those directly
.
,
,
.
.
.
.
.
benefit from the improvements, through special taxing districts, assessments or other
methods.
3. Because representatives on the watershed district would not be elected, but appointed,
it is a concern that Stillwater residents that lie within the district would not be
adequately represented. Given the points raised above, Stillwater would not support a
district unless representation were based on relative tax base and/or population. If the
board were to contain five people it would be expected that three come from the City
of Stillwater.
4. In the past two years the City of Stillwater has completed significant studies and
analysis of drainage systems in and around Stillwater. Studies such as the Long Lake
and the AUAR trout stream mitigation plan have been completed largely because the
WMO was unable to provide any guidance, leadership or assistance. The results of
these studies will benefit not only Stillwater, but other communities which are a part
of the Browns Creek Watershed. Ifa watershed district were to be created, we
anticipate that these efforts would be recognized and the district would take a
leadership role in implementation.
These points bring out the fact that there are some serious questions about how a
relatively small district, such as this, would operate, support itself, and integrate itself into
the existing situation. It seems that much could be gained if the County would take a
strong active leadership role as the overseer of the watershed until such time as a superior
solution could be developed. If a district does form, it will be important that the district
become active quickly and begin dealing with some of the many issues that face this
watershed. For Stillwater it will important that the points raised above be addressed as
well.

FROM:
SUBJECT: Main Street Steps Railing Repair
Project 9727
DISCUSSION:
The contractor has completed the Main Street Steps repair project. In repairing
the steps the new steps were poured over the old steps, raising the elevation of the steps
by three inches. This has rendered the existing obsolete, therefore the existing railing
must be raised up 3-6 inches in order to provide the proper safety height.
Staff has received preliminary estimtates for the cost of completing the cutting
and welding necessary to complete these repairs and appears the cost will not exceed
$4,000.
The budget for the Main Street steps was $20,000. The City has spend $20,000 to
date on this proj ect. Therefore, the railing repair will exceed our budget, but these repairs
are mandatory.
It is anticipated to provide a quotation for this work Tuesday evening.

SUBJECT: Hazel Street Ravine Storm Sewer Restoration
Project 9610
DISCUSSION:
All of the grading and storm sewer work has been completed on the Hazel Street
Ravine Storm Sewer Restoration project. What remains is cleanup and restoration. On
this project, the City is essentially acting as the general contractor. There will be a
number of expenditures necessary to complete the restoration work. Some of the items
include: purchase of topsoil, spreading of topsoil, spreading and mulching seed mixture,
spreading erosion mats, and installing replac~ment trees.
It is estimated that each of these activities will have an expenditure between
$1,000 - $2,000. Staff, over the next few weeks, will be obtaining quotes from
contractors for the work in question. In order to keep this project on track, staffis
requesting that Council give staff the authority to complete these activities without
having to return to Council to review each bid for each item.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends that Council authorize staff to obtain quotes and complete the
cleanup and restoration work at a cost not to exceed $15,000.
ACTION REQUIRED:
If Council concurs with the recommendation, they should pass a motion
authorizing the obtaining of quotes for the cleanup and restoration work at a cost not to
exceed $15,000 for the cleanup and restoration work.

Dear Mayor Kimble and members of the City Council:
Some six months ago the Minnesota Department of Transportation assured our
City that they would be properly maintaining Stillwater's Historic Lift Bridge and
to that end were putting together a working group to study it's maintenance needs
and a schedule for implementing the work necessary to prevent further
deterioration of this historic landmark.
.
Their bridge report indicates that the group has met and concluded that a
maintenance schedule which includes (among other things) redecking, structural
steel work and repainting was necessary.
A specific schedule for these needed repairs was not included in the report. As this
is an issue that is of great interest not only to many of the citizens living in Stillwater
and the St. Croix River Valley but also to all those in our Nation who are interested
in keeping and preserving structures of significant historic importance, the
maintenance schedule for needed repair work would be of interest to aU.
If you would request a copy of the maintenance schedule for work on the Historic
Lift Bridge from the Minnesota Department of Transportation, it would be greatly
appreciated.
Very Sincerely,
~/

Re: Request for "Stillwater National Historic District" signing on 194, TH95 & TH36
Dear -r~. Kimble,
The letters I received from Roger Tomten, Sunny DeYoung, and yourself raised the question of
signing for national historic districts. I understand how important Stillwater is historically and
how these signs would provide more visibility to potential visitors. A good deal of research and
consideration went into this before a decision could be made that best serves motorists. I am
sorry to tell you that the decision was negative.
.
Although MnlDOT signs to qualified Museums and historic sites from the nearest trunk highway,
all previous requests for historic district signing have been denied. MnlDOT does not install
historic related signing on interstates.
There are many historic districts in Minnesota (28 in the Metro area alone). The boundaries of
these districts are large and variable. All buildings within a district are not historic. It is felt that
historic district signs would be ambiguous to motorists.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I consulted with Mr. David Nystuen,
Director ofField Programs for the Minnesota Historical Society (phone 296-5460), regarding this
request. He also welcomes questions or comments.

For the past 20 months, a broad-based Planning Task Force has been working toward a new
"Lower St. Croix National Scenic Riverway Cooperative Management Plan" which will ultimately
replace the "1976 Master Plan".
Thus far, the Task Force has been identifying and describing a range of alternative approaches
and options to the various issues involved and eventually will be faced with the daunting task of
choosing among them, and recommending a specific plan.
The current focus of the Task Force is on proposals for management structure, including the
role (if any) of local government in management and enforcement. Next, we will consider Land Use
Controls (Zoning), and after that, water surface controls and enforcement. It should be obvious that
in these areas, the new plan will profoundly affect our cities, not only as regulators, but also as
riparian owners of municipal property that we actively manage ourselves.
As some of you know, I have lived most of my life within sight and hearing of the beautiful
St. Croix, spending as much as possible of my spare time on it or in it, and have spent more years
that I like to admit as a local elected official. At most Task Force meetings, I am the only person
present, who addresses the issues of riparian cities. I would sincerely appreciate participation,
questions andlor comments from any of my colleagues along the St. Croix, on either side. I look
forward to hearing from you.

DATE:

This is to remind you that our next Task Force meetings are:
Thursday, September 11
and
Thursday, September 25
Both meetings will be from 7-9 p.m. at the Phipps Center for the Arts in Hudson, Wis.
Both meetings are scheduled ,to- primarily address a single topic-land use controls .
(zoning).
The 1976 Master Plan recommended state zoning guidelines for the two land-use
districts developed under that plan (urban and rural). What we're trying to put together
are potential recommended zoning guidelines for each of the seven potential land-use
districts we're now working with (river town, small town historic, small town, rural
residential, park, natural, and minimafly disturbed). We've then drafted a potential
description of how those zoning guidelines would appear for each of the three major
land management alternatives considered for the future of the Lower St. Croix.
The result is a bit complicated and may take a little time to evaluate. In addition, land-
use control issues tend to be controversial. For those reasons, we've decided we're
probably going to need two Task Force meetings to work through our discussion. (We
didn't quite finish our discussion of management structure at the Aug. 21 Task Force
meeting, so need to complete that at the beginning of the Sept. 11 meeting.)
Looking ahead: Our two meetings in October (Oct. 16 and 30) will be devoted to water
surface use controls. We have several meaty and very interesting meetings coming up!
We hope to see many of you there!

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor, City Council and Staff
FROM: David T. Magnuson, Stillwater City Attorney ~ V
DATE: September 16, 1997
SUBJECT: Burlington Northern/Santa Fe Railroad Temporary Occupancy Permit
It has been necessary for the City to negotiate with Burlington Northern/Santa Fe for the Right of
Entry to remove the sand pile stored between the Desch Building and the Yacht Club for use in
the Mulberry Point Overburdening Project. After negotiations with the Railroad and the Corps,
an Occupancy Permit has been drafted that now needs the approval of the City.
I attach a copy of the Permit for the Council's consideration. The Permit itself will be changed
to correct the spelling of Corps and to provide in paragraph 7 that any property left on the
premises may be removed by the Railroad at the Permitee's expense and not the Corps. A final
form of this document will be prepared and circulated but, in principal, the attached document is
adequate for the City Council's consideration and approval. In addition to the responsibilities
contained in the Permit, it will be necessary to pay five hundred and no/l 00 dollars ($500.00) to
Burlington Northern/Santa Fe for a permit fee.~ In view of the need to make ready for the project,
we would recommend approval.

Minnesota cities have attempted to
conduct redevelopment of blighted
and contaminate areas. Is the
" current set of available programs
sufficient to do the job? In light of tax
reform does tax increment financing
need to be supplemented? Is
. abatement a.redevelopment tool?
What has been accomplished in the
last 20 years and what are the
challenges for .the next decade? A
panel of city and private sector
representatives will attempt to
answer these questions and discuss
what may be needed to continue the
redevelopment of our cities.

EXPLANATION OF PROGRAM
::-:--::J _~;e ::i
The Washington County Capital Improvement Program (C.I.P.) is a comprehensive schedule of
special project and equipment needs. This plan reflects the county's 'long-range physical
development policies and priorities. The projects programmed for funding are based on urgency
and the ability to finance.
The C.I.P. is for a five-year period, and is updated annually. It sets forth the schedule, timing,
estimated cost, sources of funding to pay for the improvement, and specific details of, each
capital improvement project. The first year conforms to the proposed operating budget., Each
year, this program is updated and extended one year to reflect changing conditions,
circumstances and needs.
The plan covers nonrecurring expenditures over $1000 in five categories:'public facilities;
highway construction and right-of-way acquisition; parks and land acquisition; requipment,
furnishings and information servi~es; and special projects/technology. The plan includes projects
that extend into or begin in any of the years in the 5-year planning cycle. Projects included in
this C.I.P . have the following characteristics: '
)1'
1. Projects over $1000.
2. Lease-Purchase Agreements (LPA).
3. Have an expected useful life of :five years or more.
The following describes the information listed in the following tables.

- Fmancin~ the Proeram
In 1989, Washington County sold $24.8 million worth of bonds to finance various highway and .
building projects. The status of these funds and the projects funded to date are in Tables 1 - 4.
Funding needs above this amount will be met using a variety of meth04s.hThe.lDajor..:fipCiI!cing
methods in Washington County are reviewed below. When dollars are available; funds are spent
in the following order: federal,. state;' county and local.' ' . :. ' ,
,~~r.- ';-;',' ,,: '.T:
->,-.
_4'~:
General Fund Revenues are a consolidation of the many taxes, licenses, permits, and service
charges that the county is allowed to levy by state statute. The county draws its operating or
. current expenditures for each year from this fund. Some capital improvement projects are also
financed from this fund. .., ,',
General ObIi~ation Bonds are notes for borrowed monies which' a county may . acquire by
attaching a separate tax to county residents tax bills in order to pay back a loan over a number
of years.
Revenue Bonds are notes for borrowed monies which are attained on the anticipation that there
will be sufficient revenue generated by the project to be fmanced to payoff the loan ,with
interest.
MetroDolitan. State and Federal Grants-in-Aid are monies supplied by the Metropolitan
Council, and state and federal governments for certain local projects when they meet goals which
are of national, state or regional importance. These funds may range from as small as a 10% .
contribution to a 100% cost grant.
2
'.
..
.
.
Special Fundin~ is any of a number of specific taxes or local contributions that supply money
for a specific project or operation. An example of such a fund would be a public benefit tax for
construction of roads and drainage ditches. . This tax',would be considered a special assessment
tax. '
Lease/Purchase Aueement is used when the county levies for the debt service of another
governmental unit. Bonds are sold by a city or the Housing Redevelopment Authority to fund
various capital projects. The county uses an annual appropriation to generate income to make
the lease/purchase payments. This anriual appropriation is outside the county's levY limit.
Unfunded are projects that the county would like to pursue but a specific funding source has
not been identified.

PrQject Description:
Washington and Ramsey Counties have begun discussions with MN/DOT on the
turnback of TH 120 from the east ramp of 1-494 to 1-94. This turnback would include
funding through the State Trunk Highway Turnback Account for reconstruction of the
Valley Creek Road interchange, Valley Creek Road improvements, Traffic Signal
installation at Valley Creek Road and Century Avenue, and improveme~ts to Century
A venue. This project is being programmed so that if agreement on turnback conditions
is made, the project can progress in a timel~manner.

PARKS DEVEInPMENT AND LAND ACQUISIDON
Need for and Demand for Improvement -
On July 29, 1986, the Washington County Board of Commissioners adopted th~
Washington County Recreation/Open Space System Plan. The system plan analyzed the
county to determine acquisition and development needs for recreation' and openspaee sites.
As the implementing agency for the Metropolitan Council, the CountY'receives acquisition
and development dollars from the Council. Before receiving funding from the Council,
the county is required to have an approved master plan' for each park site. Each master
plan identifies land acquisition and development needs. All projects' recommended for the
CIP have involved public review at a public hearing, and review and approval by the
waShington County Park and Open Space Commission and the Washington County Board
of Commissioners. Based upon Metropolitan Council estimates, WashingtOn County park
use has grown eight-fold in the last five years. Also, user studies have helped todetermine
public' needs ..and demands ~ for park~. development.;::Without:oontiIlueC1 development,
existing facilities could not meet public demand. Overcrowdirig lJf existirig facilities will
have a negative impact on the resource and reduce personal opportunities.
