MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor and City Council
FR: Steve Russell, Community Development Director
v
DA: April 28, 1994
RE: REVIEW OF REQUEST FOR TIF ASSISTANCE FOR CONSTRUCTION OF
RETAIL CENTER, DICK ZIMMERMAN
Background:
The city has received a request from Dick Zimmerman for TIF assistance to construct a 19,115
square foot commercial center. This development (PUD/94-4) was approved by the city council
on 4-5-94.
A portion of the development site is located in TIF District #3 Arkell (see map). The Erickson
Post station is not and will not generate increment.
The TIF policy states that 2-1/2 years of "pay as you go" increment can be made available for
retail projects. In this case, the assistance would be for development on parcell 0650-2000. The
amount of increment generated from the project would be based on the increase in value of the
site as a result of the development from the current tax base.
If "pay as you go" is provided for the project, the funds would have to be used for eligible TIF
activities (i.e" land write down, site preparation, enhanced landscaping).
Recommendation:
Consideration and decision on TIF request. If assistance is provided, it should be "pay as you
go" assistance for 2-1/2 years.

6. Reduce special assessment and write down land costs.
e
FUNDING APPROACH
The preferred method of providing assistance for private projects is the "pay
as you go" approach and the loan approach. "Pay as you go" does not involve
the issuance of bonds, and thus limits the City's financial exposure in these
uncertain times of State enabling legislation.
The loan approach involves the sale of tax increment bonds, and loaning the
proceeds to the developer which, in turn comes back to the City with interest.
The repayment funds would be placed in a development account to assist with
future development. This lessens the bond risk because there are two income
streams, tax increment and loan payments, that can be used to meet the bond
obligation. Only in special unique situations where there is very significant
benefit to the community, wi 11 "Up front" assi stance be considered. A
combination of assistance techniques may be appropriate in some situations.
\J
. The following TIF allocation criteria will be used as a guideline: (1) .A-
minimum of 50% of all new TIF proc~eds shall be used in the Downtown
Redevelopment District to correct blighted conditions (2) New or expansion of
basic industrial development may receive TIF assistance according to the
Economic Development District requirements (maximum eight years of assistance)
(3) Other commercial office retail or service business may receive two and one
~
half years of "pay as you goll assistance (50% of TIF proceeds for five years)
for land write down or special assessment reductions.
e
PRINCIPLES USED TO REVIEW AND NEGOTIATE TIF DEVELOPMENT CONTRACTS
1. To limit public financial assistance to a project to the minimum amount
necessary and assure the successful accomplishment of the project.
2. To keep the payback period for tax increment bonds and loans to the
shortest term possible.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
~~
Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Diane Deblon, Finance Director
RE:
1994 Payable TIF
April 29, 1994
DATE:
I received the TIF revenue projections from Washington County for the payable
1994 real estate taxes. The TIF revenue for all of the city's TIF districts
(numbers one through five) has decreased from payable 1993 by over
$100,000.00. The decline in the TIF revenue is due to reductions in values and
changes in commercial/industrial tax rates for those properties. In conjunction
with this I have also reviewed the projected bond payments and other pay-as-
you-go tax increment commitments the City has. It appears that there will be
sufficient revenue to cover these commitments with the decreased revenue in
1994. Although there will not be any excess TIF revenue to apply or use
toward any new TIF projects.

The asbestos abatemerrt amount indlcalE<! in the letter of March 12 was for plans and
specifications at an estimated cost of $8,815.00. The asbestos abat"""",t IDOtIitoring and
manageIDent was $30.000 as 1nc\ica1E<! in the letter from Alec Environmental Consultants. dalE<!
May 12, 1993. At the onset of the project. we had considered including the asbestoS aha_t
monitoring with the contractor's costs; therefore, the esfunated construction cost that was given
to the Oty was $240.000 or $190.000 for the aba_I, monitoring and ~t, disposal
of light ballast and mercury vapor Iatnps and an additional $50.000 for asbestos brick removal
and the boile<s. After discuSSing the monitoring and management of the asbestos with both Mr.
Russell and Mr. Dave Magnuson. City Attorney. it was determined that it would serve the Oty's
best Interest to have the monitoring and management 01 the asbestOs removal under the control
of the City rather than the contractor. Therefore, in the ~ schedule. the construction amount
for the asbestos abatement or removal is shoWn as $210.000. and $30.000 is included in the
engineering cost. bringing the total amount of the asbeStos abatement proposal to $38,815 or an
UI1<ieaun in engineering cost of $3.114.06. The pre\in'IinaIY planning segment is an overrun in
engineering of $1,212 because of additional meetings requiring attendancedurinf; the prefuninarY
design- />Jso changes in design requirements from rough drawings and.esfunates- As pointed
out in the letter. we roughly esfunated the plans and specifications on the parking lot cost of
$340.000 at a 9.30/0 fee in accordance with our existing contract; however. since the parking lot
bid was actually $476.756. the fee was reduced to 7.20/0. The portion of the plans that were
allocated to final plans of the originally estimated $31.000 fee was $24,920. WiIh the difference
in the construction cost and SO forth. the final plans overran by $2.561-14. The landscape portion
of the project overran by $1.'722-50 because .of additional requirements in tksign- We also did
not include the electrical engineering for the final plaIlS at $3.010 which is also shown as an
overrun.
e
. The construction services are still estimated since the surfacing. landscaping and lighting of the
project have not been completed as yet and Is not scheduled for completion until the 1st of June.
1994. The estimated construction costs as indicalE<! in theleller of March 12 are shown in the
above schedule and are still estimated at the same .mount at this time. However. we have
e

added $500 for electrical engineering which was not in the original estimate. The total net on
engineering, if the estimated construction services s:emain as shown above, is an overrun of
$5,89158. Howevet, the consttucti.on costs incurred to date have undemm by $193,000. As of
this date, the building demolition cost and the asbestos abatement cost are final; however, the
parking lot again is not scheduled to be completed until June of 1994.
We feel the project was designed, to meet the City's needs by partnering with City staff and
residents in the area, and that we have been able to reduce the construction cost considerably
from. the otiginal esUtl\3.tE'5 by means of partnering and diligent design. We, therefore, ask for
consideration for the $5,891 overrun in engineering costs from the City.
If you have any questions, please call me.

216 North Fourth Street
Stillwater, MN 55082
Dear Klayton:
As you requested, we are writing this letter to provide you with information regarding the
salvage of the boiler doors from the boiler building on the above referenced project.
e
The contract was awarded to J & 0 Enterprises on July 26, 1993, began in September of 1993 and
was completed on December 10, 1993. The specifications Section 02060, Building Demolition,
Part ill, 3.02, Salvage Materials, requires the contractor to remove carefully to avoid damages,
turnover to t~e owner materials indicated for salvage and the other items are to become the
contractor's property. Second section delineating the schedule for salvage materials indicates
items to be salvaged for delivery to the owner's site were the a. building cornerstone, b. coat of
arms above east and west entrances and c. decorative steel doors on existing boilers (2).
Sometime in early December, I reviewed the two boiler doors which were stacked on the old
bituminous parking lot in the lower section and determined that they had been salvaged
satisfactorily and stored on said bituminous parking lot. At that time, the contractor was still
hauling in the sand fill and dozing material around on the demolition site.
e
Apparently, when the City picked up the boiler doors, they had been pushed up on the bank
and appea1"ed to be badly cracked. City public work crews said they had to chain the doors
together to lift them carefully with the loader into the truck to haul them up to the public works
garage.
When McC1"Ossan (subcontractor for Tower Asphalt on the parking lot construction) picked up
the doors to sandblast them in preparation for painting to attach to the retraining wall, they
discovered that they were badly cracked and needed welding.
We sent a letter dated March 23, 1994 to J &t D Enterprises informing them that Mc:Crossan
would require $2,500 to weld the' steel doors for preparation for placement on the wall.
Subsequently, we received a letter in return from J & D Enterprises dated April 7, 1994 stating
that they did not feel that they had damaged the doors,

e
After receiving the letter, I had a telephone conversation with 1 &. D Enterprises in Duluth. They
stated that they had a subcontractor dozing the fill material onto the demolition site, and it
appears that it is possible that he pushed the doors up on the bank on the lower level with the
dozer and damaged them at that time. Some of this conjecture is on our part;' however, the
evidence seems to substantiate the possibility J &. D damaged the doors before the City removed
.... them"frot\"l...the site to. safekeeping at the public works garage. . -- -- --'---~~',,:,,'.
Therefore, we are recommending that the City withhold $2,500 for rehabilitation of the boiler
doors from J &. D's final payment application which you will receive under separate cover.
If you have any questions, please contact me at 490-2016.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Stu Glaser, Civil Defense Director
RE:
Area Warning Systems
DATE:
April 28, 1994
Since my appointment as Civil Defense Director, I have been reviewing the
placement and operation of the sirens used for severe weather and for natural
disaster. At present, there are three (3) sirens that are not operating. One
siren located at Lily lake Elementary did not work last Tuesday when the sirens
were activated for the Tornado Warning. This siren was working when tested
on Wednesday, April 6th. However, the circuitry of the siren was apparently
affected by a lightening strike after April 6 (note: the sirens are tested on the
1st Wednesday of each month).
Two other sirens, one at William and Aspen St. and one at 4th and Poplar
Streets have apparently been disconnected from the activation system since
August 1993 (not sure why). However, these sirens will be repaired and should
be operable by this weekend as will be the siren at Lily Lake.
In regards to the sirens at William/ Aspen and 4th/Poplar, I will be coming to the
meeting of May 17th with a proposal to replace these sirens with a new siren
located on Moore Street, which is adjacent to the Stillwater Country Club. This
new siren (which will cost about $13,000) will provide the same coverage as the
two sirens now do and will obviously be more reliable. I will provide you with
a map showing siren coverage and more information on the new siren at the
meeting on the 17th.

Re: Pille Hill Estates, Preliminary Plat
MedIa Project No. 94-009
Dear Mr. Russell:
\Ve have made additions to the preliminary grading plan to reflect comments raised in your
memorandum of April 7, 1994.
On-site ponding has been added to meet the city's requirement that the 2-year, 10-year and
lOO-year storm water runoff rates from the site do not exceed the predevelopment rates.
House pad elevations have been added to show how drainage will be handled after houses
are constructed.
The cul-de-sac has been designed with an eight percent grade to match as closely as possible
the existing grades. A 40 foot vertical curve is at the intersection with Boutwell Road. This
will provide a landing area of 20 feet, beginning at the existing pavement, with an average
grade of 1.65 percent. If the landing is considered to start ten feet back from the existing
pavement, an average grade of 3.75 percent will exist. This should provide an adequate
landing area for vehicles to walt before turning.
Enclosed are 10 full size prints and five reductions of the Preliminary Grading Plan along
with calculations related to the ponding and street geometry. If you have any further
questions please give me a call at 533-7595.

PLANNING APPLICATION REVIEW
Case No. SUB/94-22
Planning Commission Date: April 11, 1994
Project Location: 1524 West Myrtle Street
Zoning District: RA, Single Family Residential
Applicant's Name: Richard Huelsmann
Type of Application: Preliminary Plat
Project Description
Subdivision of a 5.02 acre parcel into 9 lots ranging in size from 12,506 to 33,915 square feet.
Discussion
The request is to subdivide a 5-acre site with an existing residence into 9 lots. The existing residence will be
located on the largest lot, 33,915 square feet. The site is located in the RA, single family residential district. A
pond separates the site from the JC Ballfield (owned by the School District). Single family residents boarder the site
to the east and north and Myrtle Street fronts the site to the south, An existing driveway provides access to the site.
This driveway will be abandoned and new street constructed providing access to the nine lots,
A portion of County Road 12 right of way is being vacated by the county and is shown as a part of the subdivision.
The subdivision plan has been referred to the city utility deparbnents and Washington County Public Works for
review and comment. No comments have been reviewed as of this writing,
The grading plan shows the removal ofa high area on the site and filing a low area (not a wetland). Many of the
circle trees on the front east portion of the site are kept. The access road end is located approximately 40 feet from
the pond. Fifty feet separation is required. No drainage management plans were submitted, but will be required
before fmal plat approval. The proposed plans show the stonnwater is directed directly to the pond without
presettlement.
The proposed subdivision is consistent with the zoning requirements regarding lot areas and size.
Tree replanting at the rate of 10 trees per net developable acre is required as part of the fmal construction plans,
The proposal shows the dedication of the pond as the park dedication requirement. The pond does not qualify for
dedication, The park and recreation commission reviewed the subdivision and feel a 7 percent in lieu park fee is
appropriate for the subdivision.
Findings
As conditioned, the project is consistent with the zoning and subdivision ordinances.

City Charter Commission prepared and recommended to the City Council the adoption
of the following amendment to the City Charter:
"CITY OWNED LAND"
16.01 All land now or hereafter owned by the City of Stillwater that:
1. Is within Minnesota or Wisconsin that borders on the st. Croix River
shall not be sold, leased, disposed of, developed or have its
character substantially changed or altered unless done in compliance
with this chapter; or,

RE: PARKS AND RECREATION COMMISSION AND PLANNING COMMISSION
RESPONSE TO ADDITION OF LAND OFF OF GREEN TWIG WAY TO
MCKUSICK LAKE PARK/OPEN SPACE AREA
Background:
The city council received a petition from area residents regarding a Green Twig Way park at their
meeting of March 15, 1994. At that meeting, the council referred it to the parks and recreation
commission and planning commission for comment.
Comments:
The planning commission reviewed the items at their meeting of April 11, 1994, and felt that the
land was appropriate for a open space natural area park with trails but not for a typical
neighborhood park with play areas. They also felt some development of the site, one lot adjacent
to Green Twig Way, may be consistent with the natural area park use. (The minutes of CPC of
4-11-94 meeting are attached,)
The parks and recreation commission reviewed the petition at their meeting of April 25, 1994
and reaffirmed their interest in the land being maintained in a condition consistent with their
plans for a walkway around McKusick Lake. (Minutes of January 24, 1994, are attached.)
Recommendation:
No action required, The parks and recreation commission and planning commission felt the site
was consistent with a open space parks use,

Motion by Glenna Bealka, seconded by Dorothy Foster to approve the special use permit with one
condition. Carried 5-0.
OTHER BUSINESS
Discussion of request for acquiring parkland - The Commission discussed a petition from
Green Twig Way property owners asking the City to purchase property for park/open space, The
subdivision of the property was recently requested and denied. Following discussion, the
Commission agreed that one home on the property would be acceptable. Mr. Russell stated that
this would reduce the cost to the City and still preserve the sensitive part of the site. The property
owner would not need approval for only one house. The park fees from the two subdivisions
which were approved at this meeting could be used to purchase the property.
Motion by Don Valsvik, seconded by Kirk Roetman to recommend to the City Council that a
portion or all of the property be purchase for open space, with development of only one lot, with
park dedication funds to be used for the purchase. Carried 5-0.
Consideration of request for a regulation to protect views and vistas.
John Kraemer presented a request to amend the building code to allow for protection of views and _
vistas, The Commission discussed this request and determined that it would be difficult to define -
a view, and also difficult to determine who owns a view. The Commission will keep the request
in mind as it updates the Comprehensive Plan,
ADJOURNMENT
Motion by Don Valsvik, seconded by Glenna Bealka to adjourn the meeting at 9:15 p.m. Carried.

RE: COMPREHENSIVE PLAN ALTERNATIVES FOR PHASE II STUDY
At the city council/planning commission workshops of March 7th, direction was given for the
development ofthree growth alternatives for the City of Stillwater as listed below:
1. Complete expansion and development of city planning area as required to accommodate
forecast growth.
II, Partial expansion of city boundary to those areas where vacant developable lands are
located,
III,
No growth alternative - expansion of city boUndary for commercial/industrial
development only (along Highway 36) but no major residential expansion.
Councilman Kimble indicated at a recent comprehensive plan update meeting that he thought
another growth alternative that reflected no growth of city boundary was being considered. It is
suggested that if the council would like this no growth alternative to be a part of phase II update,
it be added at this time. This would give the council information of the impact of no growth on
the city.

The City planning area outside the City contains 600 - 700 acres of vacant land that if annexed,
could accommodate future City growth. These vacant lands along with vacant land within the
existing City will be considered in developing the future land use plan alternative during Phase II
plan preparation,
e
from the comments received at the January 31 public meeting, it was suggested that a no growth
alternative be considered. This alternative would freeze the City boundary with minor exceptions
and limit growth to the infill of existing City vacant land.
Three land use alternatives as listed below are proposed for Phase II Study,
I. Complete expansion and development of City planning area as required to accommodate
forecast gro\\ih,
II. Partial expansion of City boundary to those areas where vacant developable lands are
located.
III. No Gro\vth Alternative - expansion of City boundary for commercial/industrial
development only (along H\vy 36), but no major residential expansion,
The City Council and Planning Commission should review the plan alternatives regarding the
growih issues to make sure they represent the reasonable City growih options.

Recommendations
Re\iew and comment on Phase I Report, meeting results and comments, and Phase II alternatives.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor and City Council
FR: Steve Russell, Commuuity Development Director fL/
DA: April 28, 1994
RE: REPORT ON BENEFITS TO CITY OF 1 PERCENT SALES TAX
The Council has previously decided to put a 1 percent city-wide sales tax on the November
ballot. It is suggested that the Council consider having a report prepared detailing the benefits
to city residents of such a tax. To this end, it is recommended that the Council appoint a member
to work with the city staffto develop a report outline describing the projects that could result
from funds generated from the tax.
Recommendation
Appoint council member to work with staff on preparing an outline and method of preparing 1
percent tax project report.

MEMORANDUM
TO:
Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Klayton Eckles, City Engineer
RE:
Update on Environmental Studies
DATE:
May 2, 1994
In the Council packet I included a memo in which I recommended Council award
a contract to Atec Environmental Consulting Services for work at 203 N. Main
Street. After further review of the proposals and after further consultations
with the PCA, I recommend we award the consulting service work to Concept
Environmental Services Incorporated. The reasoning for this change is that the
Concept Environmental Services proposal does include all the work necessary to
complete the study of the site. During my earlier investigations of the bid
forms, it appeared that Concept Environmental Services had not included all the
necessary work. Analyzing their bid form now, it is apparent that based on
their proposal Concept Environmental Services could complete all of the necessary
consulting and contractor services work for $7,686.00. The Atec bid for the
same work was $12,800.00.
e
Concept Environmental has done work for the City in the past. They did the
asbestos removal studies on the Jr. High demolition project. Given that this is
not a complicated study as environmental services go, I recommend we award this
particular environmental study to Concept Environmental Services for an amount
not exceed $7,686.00.
Another environmental study that we are currently addressing is the study of
the North Third Street dumping site. This particular environmental problem as
more complicated due to the nature of the contaminants, which are municipal
waste such as refrigerators, tires, and other unknown substances mixed with
concrete and soil. The location of this dumping site is also difficult, because
it is located along the bluff line in an old ravine that has been filled in.
SEH, MSA, and Atec presented proposals for this project. SEH bid $4,500.00
to perform a Phase II investigation based on using geo-probe analysis. MSA
presented a proposal estimated at $6,480.00, which included drilling, soil
borings, and taking soil samples. Atec had the highest Phase II environmental
assessment at $11,811.00. The Atec method was based on taking trench samples
by use of a backhoe.
e
In this case, although the Atec method is the most expensive method proposed,
I recommend Atec be selected for this operation. Atec produced the most
thorough investigation in preparing their proposal and from discussions with the
PCA, their method appears to be the most probable to succeed. Also, one
advantage of their method would be that any contamination that is encountered
as part of their testing would be removed.
--
e
e
Given the complexity of this environmental issue, it is my oplmon that the Atec
proposal has the best chance of succeeding without additional cost overruns and
may address most or all of the contamination at the time of the testing.
Therefore, I would recommend that Atec be chosen as the consultant to provide
the environmental services for the North Third dump site at cost not to exceed
$11,811. 00.

RE:
Selection of Consultants for Environmental Studies
DATE:
April 29, 1994
The parking lot a 203 - 205 N. Main is a site of potential petroleum contamination from
the old Kilty gas station. This problem was discovered when SEH was doing studies
for the 76 gas station. SEH discovered a high level of petroleum products below
ground on the parking lot at 203 N. Main.
I received proposals for consulting services from four different consultants. Since this
project will be eligible for petro fund reimbursement, the petro fund bid forms were
used to obtain bids. Due to the complicated nature of the petro fund bid form,
interpreting the bids is somewhat difficult. There are two basic parts to the bid form,
one for consultant services, and one for contractor services. The consultant services
are for the engineering, while the contractor services are for the drilling and lab
work. I obtained quotes from Atec Engineering Consulting Services, Myers Stuart and
Associates, SEH, and Concept Environmental Services. The bids received were as
follows:
FIRM NAME
PHASE II BID AMOUNT
Atec
MSA
SEH
Concept Environmental
$3,005.00
$5,520.00
$5,265.00
$3,760.00
It can be seen that Atec is the low bidder for the Phase II consultant work. In
addition to bidding on the Phase II work, Atec also provided an estimate for work that
they anticipate the PCA will require. They also provided a bid for the contractor
work which would include the lab work and the drilling. The total Atec bid is for an
amount not to exceed $12,800.00.
Atec has done a number of environmental studies throughout the City. The reports
they have done have consistently been of high quality. Also, their proposal is up
front, so I do not anticipate any hidden costs due to additional peA regulation.
I recommend Council award the subsurface remedial investigation of 203 N. Main Street
to Atec Environmental Consulting Services for an amount not to exceed $12,800.00.

$4,800,000 General Obligation Tax Increment Bonds, Series 1994C
$170,000 General Obligation Capital Outlay Bonds, Series 1994D
We respectfully request your consideration of our recommendations for the issuance of the
above-named issues, We will address each of these issues separately and then those items
common to all three will be discussed at the end of the recommendations,
e
$1,485,000 General Obligation Improvement Bonds, Series 1994B
The Improvement Bonds are being issued pursuant to the City Charter and Minnesota Statutes,
Chapters 429 and 475. Proceeds of the Improvement Bonds will finance seven improvement
projects in the City. Attached as Appendix I is a ,listing of the projects and the amount of
assessments to be filed against benefited properties for each project. A tax levy is also
expected to support a portion of four of the projects.
We understand MSA funds on hand, totaling $226,307, will be used to reduce the bonding for
the Mulberry Street Project (L.1. 300), water utility funds totaling $11,680 will be used to reduce
the bonding for the Sherburne Street Project, and an additional $38,258 of excess MSA funds
on hand will be applied to further reduce the total size of this issue,
The assessments, which are expected to be filed on or about November 15, 1994, will be
spread in even annual principal installments with interest on the unpaid balance charged at a
rate of approximately 1.5% above the rate received on the bonds. The Southeast Sewer
Project assessments will be spread over 15 years, and the assessments for all of the other
projects will be spread over a 10-year term, Attached as Appendix II is a schedule of the
..

projected assessment income based on these assumptions, The projected income stream
does not take into consideration any delinquencies or prepayments,
Attached as Appendix III is the recommended maturity schedule for the Improvement Bonds.
The assessment income generated in Appendix II is shown in Column 8 of Appendix III. The
Southeast Sewer Project special assessment income shown in the final five years of the
program would only allow for a trailer of $30,000 to $40,000 of bond principal maturing in the
years 2006 through 2010, We are recommending that those small principal payments be
added to the 2005 maturity, shortening the length of the issue. This larger payment can be
made from prepayments or it can be refinanced prior to the maturity date, We have provided
for a call feature on this issue which allows the City to prepay the 2004 and 2005 maturities as
early as February 1, 2003, and any date thereafter, at par,
The portion of the issue being supported by tax levies is expected to require annual levies
averaging approximately $57,000, as shown in Column 9. Based on the City's current net tax
capacity, the average tax levy is equivalent to a tax capacity rate of approximately 0:742%.
Appendix VI, attached, provides a sampling of the tax impact for this levy on various residential,
commercial/industrial and apartment properties,
To the extent other funds (such as assessment prepayments or proceeds of a refinancing) are
available, the tax levy indicated in the final year of this program will be reduced or eliminated.
$4,800,000 General Obligation Tax Increment Bonds, Series 1994C
The Tax Increment Bonds are being issued pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapters 469 and
475, and the City Charter, Proceeds of this issue will be used to finance public improvements
within Tax Increment Financing District No, 4, relating to the Marketplace development for
Target and Cub Foods.
The City has entered into assessment agreements with the County and the developers that the
improvements will have a minimum value of $7,890,600 ($4,331,310 for the Target portion and
$3,559,290 for the Cub Foods portion), Based on current tax rates and assessment rates, this
is expected to produce annual tax increment income of approximately $462,656 beginning with
collections in 1996, which will be adequate to support $4,8 million of Tax Increment Bonds,
The composition of this issue is as follows:
, Project Costs
Capitalized Interest (through 2-1-96)
Allowance for Discount Bidding
Costs of Issuance
$4,267,184
443,960

Less: Estimated Investment Earnings
Total Tax Increment Bonds
This project is in a redevelopment district which was formed on December 6, 1986 and has a
25-year life from the time the first increment was received. The County has verified that the first
increment was levied in 1987 and collected in 1988, so the final year of increment collection will
be in 2012 (levy year 2011). Appendix IV is the recommended repayment schedule for this
issue, with the final maturity on February 1, 2013, corresponding to the final receipt of
increment from the district.

e
The issue has been structured to provide for even annual debt service payments which are
expected to average approximately $459,420 (Column 8). The mandatory 5% overlevy
(Column 9) results in a small tax levy requirement as shown in Column 11. However, to the
extent the City has, additional revenues on hand sufficient to meet the 105% requirement, an
overlevy will not be required.
The development will be fully valued as of January 2, 1995, so the first receipt of increment will
be in 1996, Capitalized interest in the amount of $443,960 has been included in the issue to
cover the interest payments due through February 1, 1996, Thereafter, each levy of tax
increment will be in an amount sufficient to cover the August 1 semiannual interest payment
due in the collection year and the subsequent February 1 principal and interest payment.
We recommend the Tax Increment Bonds maturing in the years 2004 through 2013 be callable
as early as February 1, 2003, and any date thereafter, at a price of par. This will give the City
the flexibility to refinance the issue in the future if circumstances so warrant.
$170,000 General Obligation Capital Outlay Bonds, Series 19940
These bonds are being issued pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 475 and the City
Charter, Proceeds will be used to finance capital outlay purchases for various City
departments, The composition of the issue is as follows:

Attached as Appendix V is the recommended maturity schedule for this issue, The issue has
been structured to provide for even annual payments over a 10-year term. The average annual
debt service requirement is estimated to be approximately $24,229, including the statutorily
required 5% overlevy. Based on the City's current net tax capacity, the average levy is
equivalent to a tax capacity rate of approximately 0,316%, Appendix VI includes a sampling of
the estimated annual tax impact for this issue on various residential, commercial/industrial and
apartment properties.
The first levy for this issue will be made in 1994, payable in 1995, and will be in an amount
sufficient to cover the first interest payment, due February 1, 1995, as well as the
August 1, 1995 interest payment and the February 1, 1996 principal and interest payment.
Since first-half collections of this levy will not be received until after the February 1, 1995
interest payment, the City can use other available City funds to make the payment and then
reimburse those funds after receipt of the tax collections. Thereafter, each levy will be in an
amount sufficient to cover the August 1 semiannual interest payment due in the collection year
and the subsequent February 1 principal and interest payment.

e
City of Stillwater, Minnesota
April 27, 1994
Due to the short maturity schedule for this issue, we recommend that the Capital Outlay Bonds
be noncallable. A short call feature would hinder the marketability of the issue,
Common to AlIls$ues
Credit Ratings
We recommend an application be made to Moody's Investors Service for credit ratings on these
issues. We will provide Moody's with the information needed to conduct their analysis, The
rating fees have been pro-rated in the costs of issuance for each issue.
Federal Arbitrage/Rebate
These issues are subject to federal arbitrage regulations. Generally speaking, all arbitrage
profits (the yield difference between the earnings on the investment of proceeds and the yield
on the obligations) must be rebated to the U.S, Treasury. There are some exemptions to the
rebate requirement, which include:
(i) A small issuer exemption if the obligations are for governmental purposes and
the issuer reasonably expects to issue not more than $5,000,000 of tax-exempt
obligations during the calendar year,
(ii) A 6-month exemption if all of the proceeds are expended within 6 months of
issuance.
e
(iii)
An 18-month expenditure test if at least 15% of proceeds are expended within 6
months, 60% within 12 months and 100% within 18 months.
(iv) A 2-year expenditure test if at least 75% of the proceeds of the issue are used
for construction and if 10% is expended within 6 months, 45% within 12 months,
75% within 18 months and 100% within 2 years. If it is reasonably required that
a retainage be maintained to enforce the completion of a contract, up to 5% of
the proceeds may be retained for an additional 12 months.
Please note that exemptions (ii), (iii) and (iv) are based on a test of absolute requirements
which include the additional income earned from the reinvestment of proceeds,
The City should be able to meet the requirements of items (iii) or (iv) for the Improvement and
Tax Increment Bonds. The Capital Outlay Bonds cannot meet the requirements of item (iv)
since proceeds are not being used for construction, However, the Capital Outlay Bonds may be
eligible for exemption under items (ii) or (iii), If there is some question about meeting the
exemption requirements for any of the issues, then the City can elect to either rebate the
arbitrage earnings on the unexpended portion, or pay a penalty with respect to the close of
each 6-month period after the date the obligations are issued equal to 1,5% of the amount by
which unexpended proceeds exceed the percentages allowed during each period. The penalty
is effectively 3% per year and is computed on any excess unexpended proceeds until the
obligations are no longer outstanding.
Because current investment rates are lower than the expected rate on the bonds, we
recommend the City elect to rebate any arbitrage profits rather than elect the penalty.
__ A 1993 change in the arbitrage regulations will require special attention be paid to the
accumulation and investment of monies in the debt service fund for each issue, Investments of
funds which exceed a bona fide fund level will have to be restricted to the yield of the bonds.
Page 4
e
e
City of Stillwater, Minnesota
April 27, 1994
A bona fide debt service fund is defined as a fund which is used to achieve a proper matching
of revenues with principal and interest payments within each bond year and is depleted at least
once each bond year except for a reasonable carryover amount which may not exceed the
greater of:
1. The earnings on the fund for the preceding bond year; or
2. One-twelfth of the principal and interest payments on the issue for the
immediately preceding bond year,
Any earnings from the City's bona fide debt service fund are exempt from rebate,
Amounts in a debt service fund in excess of the amount of a bona fide debt service fund are
restricted to an investment rate equal to or less than the bond yield and may be invested in
market rate obligations, if their yield is at or below the bond yield; in specially restricted State
and Local Government Series (SLGS) issued by the U.S. Treasury; or in eligible tax-exempt
obligations.
A debt service fund can lose its bona fide status when the issuer accumulates excess
investment earnings. It is important to monitor the funds to assure compliance with the new
regulations.
Economic Life of Financed Proiects
The 1993 "final" arbitrage regulations brought all tax-exempt issues into the calculation of
"economic life." Previously, this requirement was only for private activity bonds. The intent of
this requirement is that the U.S. Treasury does not want tax-exempt debt outstanding longer
than is necessary, thus creating more tax-exempt obligations in the marketplace than are
needed. The general safe harbor for assuring that the issues comply with the regulations is if
the average maturity of the bonds does not exceed 120% of the economic life of the financed
projects, The Improvement Bonds and the Tax Increment Bonds are being issued for
infrastructure improvements which, under the Treasury guidelines, have an economic life of 20
years, The average maturity of the Improvement Bonds and the Tax Increment Bonds is 6.7
years and 11,9 years, respectively, so those two issues are in compliance with this regulation.
In regard to the Capital Outlay Bonds, the projects being financed have economic lives of 6 to
10 years and the average maturity of the bonds is 5,68 years, so this issue is also in
compliance with the regulations.
Bank Qualification
In 1986 tax provisions enacted by the U.S, Treasury reduced the ability of banks and other
financial institutions to use tax-exempt interest as an offset against other interest expense. This
made tax-exempt obligations less attractive to these financial institutions since they did not get
the full benefit of the tax exemption. There is an exclusion from 'this provision for issuers who
will not sell more than $10,000,000 of tax-exempt obligations in a calendar year. It is our
understanding the City will not issue in excess of $10,000,000 of tax-exempt obligations in
1994. Therefore, these issues can be designated "bank qualified." Typically, bank qualified
issues receive rates lower than issues which are not bank qualified, We have taken this into
consideration in our interest rate estimates.
Federal Reimbursement Regulations
e; The U.S. Treasury has enacted reimbursement regulations to regulate issuers who wish to
issue tax-exempt obligations to recover costs of prior expenditures. The reimbursement
regulations require that if the issuer proposes to reimburse itself for expenses they paid prior to
Page 5
e
fit
e
City of Stillwater, Minnesota
April 27, 1994
the receipt of proceeds, it must have made a declaration of that intent within 60 days of the
actual payment of the expense, There are exemptions for architectural and engineering fees
and miscellaneous start-up costs. It is our understanding the City is aware of these regulations
and will take whatever action is necessary to comply with the federal reimbursement regulations
in regard to these issues.
Bond Sale Procedures
Proposals will be received on Tuesday, June 7, 1994, at 11 :00 A.M, in the offices of Springsted
Incorporated, at which time they will be verified and checked for accuracy, A representative of
Springsted will then present our recommendations as to the acceptability of proposals received
to the City Council at its meeting that evening at 7:00 P,M. Proceeds are expected to be
available in early July.

bond in the State of Minnesota, and preapproved by the City, Such bond must be submitted to
Springsted Incorporated prior to the opening of the proposals. The Financial Surety Bond must
identify each underwriter whose Deposit is guaranteed by such Financial Surety Bond. If the

comply with the accepted proposal, said amount will be retained by the City. No proposal can

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

insurance shall be paid by the purchaser, except that, if the City has requested and received a
rating on the Bonds from a rating agency, the City will pay that rating fee, Any other rating
agency fees shall be the responsibility of the purchaser.

Dear Mayor Hooley:
e
Stillwater Area Economic Development Corporation respectfully requests the City
of Stillwater renew funding of SAEDC for 1994. In 1993 SAEDC received $4,500
of funding from the City of Stillwater. SAEDC used the funds to support the
following efforts:
1. Economic Development Coordination - SAEDC held three workshops to
coordinate economic development goals and objectives between the various
member communities (Stillwater, Oak Park Heights, Bayport, Stillwater
Township, Bay Township and Grant Township). Through the meetings we
have increased awareness and involvement of the local governments in the
economic development process.
2. Business Retention and Expansion Survey - SAEDC worked with the
University of Minnesota and the Minnesota Extension Service to complete a
business retention survey. The recommendations and strategies developed in
response to the survey are being implemented to retain area businesses.
3. SAEDC has developed an industrial sites map identifying various industrial
locations available. We have used this vehicle to demonstrate industrial sites
available for existing or potential new area business.
e
4. SAEDC has worked directly with area Red Flag (business planning to move)
businesses to retain them in the area. SAEDC is currently involved in
relocating 3 of these businesses.
-
5. SAEDC actively supported proposals by Cub Foods and Andersen Windows
to expand in the area. SAEDC's efforts to gather letters to the editor of local
papers and participation in public meetings provided a balance to those
opposed to economic development or expansion in the area.
SAEDC's role in coordinating and encouraging economic development in the area
has increased over the past year. Our goals are aimed at meeting both the needs of
local business as well as home owners in our area. SAEDC efforts to accomplish
these goals are based upon understanding diverse opinions and planning ahead to
balance conflicting interest in the most effective manner. Stillwater's support of
SAEDC will help maintain this grass roots organization promoting the local area
and economic development within it. I ask you continue funding SAEDC so that
1993's progress can be carried into 1994.
Sincerely,
/~ (J~

Re:
Peddlers License Requests
David Rochlin has requested a one-day Peddlers Permit to sell
Glow Necklaces in and around the City Parks on July 4, 1994. He
will employ 6-10 Stillwater area residents to sell the neclaces.
The Parks and Recreation Board approved his request at their
April 25, 1994, meeting. Mr. Rochlin was granted a similar
permit to sell Glow Necklaces during the July 31, 1993,
Sesquicentennial Celebration.
Marjorie Cromie has requested a one-year Peddlers Permit to sell
jewelry, lamps, olive oil, and textiles.
The Parks and Recreation Board has denied her request to sell
within the City Parks. She had a similar permit to sell in
1993, with the Parks and Recreation Boards' determination that
the restricted park area included all exits, entrances, and
roads therein, including the Levee Road and parking lot
adjacent to the park. She has requested Council permission to
sell in or around the parks.

Dear Mayor Hooley:
As our cities and populations continue to grow, transportation becomes more of a
consideration. To enhance awareness for commuting and its effects, the Metropolitan
Transit Commission and its Minnesota Rideshare division work with other transportation
agencies to sponsor "B-BOP Day" in Minnesota.
B-BOP Day, May 19, is an annual event that challenges individuals to abandon the single
passenger vehicle. "B-BOP" stands for Bike, Bus or Pool. These commuting alternatives
are part of a system called Transportation Demand Management (TDM) that encourages
people to adjust their travel behavior to make more efficient use of transportation
facilities and services,
I invite your city to take the lead in highlighting commuting option by hosting a B-BOP
event at City Hall and recruiting local employers to also become involved, I believe that
through these events, employees will become interested in TDM and employers will
partner with MTC/Minnesota Rideshare to develop other commuting programs.
You are also invited to find out more about TDM programs on Tuesday, May 17. Aboard
the Padelford Riverboats, we will hold the 1994 Ride Choice Work Session and Awards
Presentation, These awards honor those who have made notable efforts in providing
innovative commuter transportation programs. During the Work Session, a panel of
employers with successful TDM programs will discuss how they got their programs
started and what the results have been,
I am enthusiastic about working with you and your staff to implement programs that will
benefit your city's residents. I will contact you in the coming week to arrange a time
when we can meet to discuss this partnership and your participation in B-BOP Day 1994.

MINNESOTA
Minnesota has made great strides in
environmental protection and there's a
lot more we can do. To protect our air
quality we must change the way we
commute. By taking just one vehicle off
the roadways, we'll eliminate 13,500
pounds of harmful emissions from the
air this year. And it will help to reduce
the 35 million gallons of gasoline that
are wasted each year in traffic
congestion. Will that vehicle be yours?
YOUR COMPANY
When you promote B-
BOPing, your company
will be recognized as

STILLWATER BOOK CENTER
April 13, 1994
Dear Bookseller:
We are in the process of establishing a Book Center in Downtown Stillwater and are
interested in knowing whether you would like to be a participant.
As you know, Book Centers bring a number of Booksellers together into one retail space
and are very successful on both the East and West coasts. Since Stillwater already is
known as a good book town, we believe this Center will draw large numbers of
additional book buyers and generate considerable public interest.
A large retail space consisting of two, attached, very well maintained historic buildings
is available directly across from the St. Croix Antiquarian Booksellers on Main Street.
They are well lit, air-conditioned, attractive, and include 7 private parking spaces. We
have secured the right of first refusal on these buildings.
We will be doing some remodeling and contracting for considerable signage, but most,
if not all, of this will be complete by our target opening date of June 1st, which is the
beginning of the tourist season.
Accompanying this letter you will find a floor plan and photo of the buildings. The
plan has been divided into 26 sections that are available to be leased. Many of these
sections are in the 100 sq. ft. range, which will easily accommodate over 2000 books.
More or less space is available.
The Center will be open 66 hours each week, including Sundays and most Holidays.
Because of the large space and the number of people who visit Stillwater, it will be
staffed by two people and require a full-time, salaried Manager. We are pleased that
Charles Perry, who has managed a large University bookstore, can take this managerial
position.
A phone, charge card machine, business cards, and Yellow Page display / advertising
are all provided. A computerized cash register will give a detailed record of your sales.
Everything associated with the buildings, including repairs, maintenance, insurance (on
the building, not your books), bookkeeping, property taxes, etc. is also included in your
monthly payment.
Stillwater rent is notoriously high, and adding in labor, taxes, utilities, remodeling, etc.
the charge per square foot comes to $3.85. Thus 100 sq. ft. = $385/mo. This would be
your total cost. There will be no commission charges on your sales.
e
e
e
,
If you are interested in joining this Center, we ask that you complete the enclosed
application and return it no later than April 25th. Spaces will be filled on a first-come,
first-serve basis. We will require a one-year lease, with the first month due May 1, and
the last month's rent (of the lease) due June 1. Thereafter, rent is due on the 1st of each
month and your last month is paid in advance. (This corresponds to our requirement in
renting the entire building.) You will be paid for your sales on the 1st and 15th of each
month, and will have access to a daily log of your sales at all times.
In consulting with other owners of Book Centers about policies and procedures, the
following are the most prominent:
*Booksellers must provide their own shelving, glass cases, and displays. Keys for
locked cases can be kept at the central desk. All shelving must be clean and in good
condition. Shelves are limited to 8' high.
*Booksellers are required to work (or to pay for someone else to work) at the center for
one day (8 hours) each month per unit rented. Scheduling of this work will be
arranged by Manager.
*Stock for sale should be primarily used or out-of-print hardcover books. Book related
merchandise and services, such as bookbinding, prints, and maps are also desirable.
*Spaces must be kept clean and books neatly arranged. Daily workers and our own
employees will straighten books on an on-going basis.
*The Center is not liable for theft of or damage to books, but will make every effort to
provide security and prevent shoplifting.
* Access to the building by Booksellers is restricted to shop hours.
Of course, all of this will be formalized in your lease agreement but, for now, we have
tried to provide you with as much information as possible. Since Book Centers in other
parts of the country have long waiting lists, we urge you to respond quickly to this
proposal.
The Stillwater Book Center will be well-managed and professional, We believe it will
be a great opportunity for every bookseller who chooses to participate.
Thank you for giving this your serious attention. We are available to answer any
questions you might have at the following numbers: Thomas Loome (612) 430-1092
(evenings: 430-0306); Gary Goodman (612) 439-1408.

Guide to floor plan for Stillwater Book Center:
1. There are 26 spaces available for rent, these lettered "A" through "Z".
2. The owners of the Book Center are open to proposals from individual book sellers to
rent two or more contiguous spaces.
3. The floor plan is not to scale, but nonetheless gives a good sense of the spaces
available, and of their relationship to the exits and to the central check-out area.
4. Square footage (circled) is given for each space. Since the plan is not to precise scale,
some spaces may look larger or smaller than they actually are. For example, space
"Q" (115 square feet) appears smaller than space "s" (100 square feet). Go therefore
by the square footage as given, not by appearances.
5. The square footage is fairly accurate but can only be measured more precisely after
the present tenants vacate at the end of May. At that time exact measurements can
be taken which will bear slightly on our rental fee. For example, space "A", listed as
100 square feet, may turn out to be only 98 square feet; space "L", listed as 235
square feet, may turn out to be 238 feet.
6. We are leasing only the carpeted areas of the Book Center. TIled areas are the public
areas. If therefore you inspect the premises during April or May, note that the
present configuration of tiled or public areas is what determines the available of
spaces to rent to booksellers. It also accounts for the peculiar or irregular shapes of
several of the spaces we are offering for lease. What we are trying to do is to keep
the tiled spaces entirely free (and hence not leasing these for bookcases, display
cases, tables, etc.)
A note on parking:
The Book Center is unusual, certainly for Stillwater, in having fourteen (14)
parking spaces all within 10 feet of the building. There are two spots on Main Street, in
front of the building (one of these marked handicapped) and five additional spots on
Water Street, in back of the building (one of which is marked handicapped).
In addition, however, we have seven private parking spaces reserved for staff
and customers of the Book Center. One of these, that closest to the rear entrance, will
be held for loading and unloading. Access to the shop is exceptionally easy; there are
no stairs to maneuver.

First Ward Neighbors
for a Better Stillwater
May 2, 1994
Mayor Hooley
Councilmember Funke
Councilmember Kimble
Councilmember Cummings
Councilmember Bodlovick
I am writing this letter at the request of our First Ward Neighbors organization.
We have been invited by Mayor Hooley to present candidates from the First Ward.
Our group met on May 1, and two members of our group expressed an interest in
filling the unexpired term of Councilmember Funke after his resignation. Based on
knowledge of these people, we can recommend both of these people to the City
Council as qualified and interested in Stillwater and Ward 1 issues.
Their names are Corey Mohan, 1112 S. 2nd St.; and Bruce Brillhart, 319 W. Pine St.
We are committed to a fair and open process for the selection of our next
councilmember. Therefore, we ask that the council commit to selecting someone
from the First Ward, and that the person selected commit to not seeking election in
the fall as an incumbent. We feel that an election in November to an open seat will
attract candidates who might otherwise not wish to run against an incumbent. This
will allow the First Ward to elect their own representative for the first time.
First Ward Neighbors has organized a candidate's forum. All people interested in
the council position will be invited answer questions. The meeting is scheduled for
7:00 PM on Thursday May 5 in Stillwater City Council Chambers. All First Ward
residents will be invited to attend this very important and informative meeting.
Sincerely,
~

Your Honor Mayor and Council,
I would like to express my interest in filling the vacancy for the ward 1 council
seat. I intend to run for this seat in the 1994 election.
I have lived in Stillwater since 1967 and I currently reside at 419 South Second
Street. I am a 1981 graduate of Stillwater Senior High School and attended the
University of Wisconson- River Falls, majoring in Economics and Business Admin-
istration.
As a young person just starting a family and also as someone who makes his
living as a local merchant (N orthem Vineyards Winery). I feel I can bring to the
council some views and ideas that have not been represented.
My goals would be to make the City of Stillwater and Ward 1 the best place
possible to live. work. and raise a family. I also would like to help bring about a
better relationship between the council. the citizens of Stillwater. and the local bus-
ness people and develop a cooperative spirit of Community.

Background: .
I have held several jobs in the Twin Cities area as an electrical engineer and technology manager
for such fIrms as Honeywell, Medtronic, Cardiac Pacemakers, and Univac. For the past 6 years I
have been involved in entrepenurial start up companies, and am presently CEO of RBC Inc. of

of Sixth and Pine.
Community Involvement:
I am actively involved in the Stillwater community and the First Ward neighborhood. I am a

My interest in this position is limited only to the remaining term of offIce and I will not seek
election to the position in the fall. While I may not have a long history in Stillwater, I believe my
experiences and knowledge may bring fresh ideas and new perspectives. I have a knowledge of
the issues the city currently faces and have attended many Council and Planning Commission
meetings in the last two years. I wish to represent all that is good in Stillwater and act in the best
interest of the citizens of Stillwater and the First Ward.

Dear Mayor Hooley and Stillwater City Council:
Knowledge, dedication and experience are the reasons I feel I would be a good
candidate for the position of Ward 1 Councilperson. My name is Brent Peterson
and I own a home and live at 502 West Churchill Street. I am a 1982 graduate of
Stillwater High School and received my B.A. from Mankato State University. I
am married, have a two year old daughter, and am expecting our second child in
August.
e
My knowledge of Stillwater's past and present are extensive. I recently published
my first book entitled Stillwater: A Photographic History 1843 - 1993.
My dedication has always made me strive for the very best results in any area I am
challenged with. Thus, if appointed as Ward 1 Councilperson, I would strive to
put to use my strengths for the betterment of the present and future of our city.
I have experience working with a variety of city based committees. Currently, I
am involved as a member of the Historic Courthouse Advisory Committee,
Historic Preservation Committee, Vice President of the River Town Restoration
Society, life time member of the Washington County Historical Society, and a
member of the Stillwater Country Club. My involvement with these organizations
has made me a good representative of the city of Stillwater and I believe that I am
qualified to apply for the position of Ward 1 Councilperson.

Re: Stillwater City Council Vacancy
Dear Mayor Hooley, Members of the Stillwater City Council, Nile Kriesel:
Please accept this correspondence as notice of my extreme
willingness and interest to serve on the Stillwater City Council,
filling that position recently vacated by the resignation of Gary
Funke, effective May 11, 1994. As you may be aware, I have been a
resident of the City of Stillwater since 1966 and hold the
interest and needs of the City of Stillwater and its residents
close to my heart.
I am presently a resident and reside within Ward 1, Mr. Funke's e
ward. My practice as an attorney within the City of Stillwater
has led me to develop a keen interest in fair administration of
justice and municipal affairs. I believe my practice and
experience has unquestionably afforded me the ability to
understand the issues that come before the Council and to address
them in a fair manner that will best serve the City and its
residents.
I submit this correspondence to you with the hopes that I may be
favorably considered for the appointment to fill the vacancy of
Stillwater Councilperson created by the resignation of Mr. Funke.
If you need any additional information or would like to speak with
me at any time, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Honorable Mayor
city of stillwater, Minnesota

Stillwater, Minnesota
Mayor Hooley:
with regard to the resignation of Councilmember Gary Funke, from
Ward I, and the article in the stillwater Gazette, Wednesday
April 27, 1994 seeking application for the soon to .p, vacant
position, I hereby submit my name as a candidate for the
remaining term of Ward 1 councilmember for the city of
stillwater.
e
As a life long resident of the City of Stillwater, a homeowner on
Broadway street for 17 years, with a family that uses City
services and a registered Civil Engineer, I believe that I could
bring dedication and experience to Stillwater, city Council.
e
I have worked for the Minnesota Department of Transportation for
the past 22 years. My major focus of experience has been in the
area of highway and bridge construction. Some of the projects
that I have been associated with, include the Project Engineer in
charge of the construction of the st. Paul High bridge, 35E
parkway from st. Paul south to the river, work in the city of
Hastings and Mendota, and the final completion of the Lake Street
bridge. I have occupied the position as the state Concrete
Engineer and have provided technical expertise at various
seminars within Minnesota and nationally. Presently, I am the
Metro Division Operation Engineer, with responsibilities over
4000 lane miles of highways within the metropolitan area. I
supervise over 500 highway maintenance workers for the snow
plowing and maintenance of these highways.
In the my present position as Maintenance Operations Engineer I
work with a operating budget of over 32 million dollars plus a
equipment budget of over 2 million dollars for the purchase of
cars to various maintenance trucks including the 15 to 20 large
snowplow vehicles we annually purchase.
I have lived over 40 years in the City, I am a past councilmember
and trustee of st Mary's church, and have been active in valley
athletics as participant and as a youth coach. I have had the
opportunity to use many of the services of the city and have
watched the proceedings of the city.
Presently it seems the Council needs stability and a fresh
outlook in it's direction. I would bring no preconceived notions
to the council, but would work for the best interest of the city.
e
I therefore, submit this letter of interest to fill out the term
of Ward 1 councilmember for the city of stillwater.

Dear Mr. Schirman:
The City of Stillwater has been living with congestion on Highways 95 and 36 in the downtown
area for many years. The City, in cooperation with Mn/DOT, has instituted a number of
improvements in order to handle the ever increasing traffic volumes. The City has removed
parking on both sides of Chestnut Street from Main Stt'eet to the river, on the west side of Main
Street from north of Olive Street to just south of Commercial Street and on the east side of Main
Street near the Chestnut Street intersection. Turns have been prohibited; signs installed and
other modifications made to maintain traffic flow. The City has also seen increasing traffic on
its local street system in residential neighborhoods as motorists attempt to beat the backup
occurring on the Trunk Highways. .
Traffic volumes on the bridge over the St. Croix River have grown significantly. In 1962, the
volume was less than 5;000 vehicles per day. In 1970, the volwne had grown to 8;000 and to
11;000 in 1980. In 1990, the volum.e was 15,000 vehicles per day, or 3 times what it was 30 years
ago.
The City has continued to look for other options to continue to maintain traffic flow in the face
of ever increasing volumes. One of the major concerns is the tremendous impact a single semi-
trailer truck has on traffic in the downtown area. Truck traffic desiring to turn from northbound
Main Street (Highway 36) east onto Chestnut Street to reach the river bridge has a very difficult
time because of the traffic volumes and narrowness of the roadway. A single truck must turn
from the left lane and sometimes encroach on the centerline of Main Street in order to make the
right turn onto Chestnut Street and not encroach into the westbound lane of traffic. At the same
time; there are vehicles attempting to pass the truck on the right resulting all to often in
acddents. The reverse move is a similar difficult procedure in that trucks generally must
straddle the westbound lane lines in order to track the trailer through the intersection without
encroaching on the Highway 36 centerline.
Highway 36 north from its junction with Highway 95 and across the St. Croix River is on the
Minnesota Twin Trailer Network. It was placed there in the 19705 presumably to provide
continuity with routes in Wisconsin. Since that time, traffic volumes on the river bridge have
doubled, congestion in downtown Stillwater has inaeased significantly and some of the
"..
Mr. Darrell Schierman
April 28, 1994
Page 2
e
improvements made to handle the higher traffic volumes actually work to the detriment of
turning trucks.
A preliminary study of downtown Stillwater tl,"uck accidents by Mn/OOT for the years 1989 to
1993 show 34 truck accidents. Seventeen involve trucks turning at the Chestnut Street
intersection.
Observations of the downtown area have repeatedly shown that a single truck can tie up traffic
for one Or sometimes even two or three signal cycles as it attempts to maneuver through the
intersection. A conservative estimate is that a single semi-trailer truck has the average impact
of approximately 20 passenger vehicles in the downtown area.
For these reasons, the City of Stillwater requests that the Minnesota Department of
Transportation remove Highway 36 from Highway 95 north to downtown Stillwater and to the
St. Croix River Bridge from the Twin Trailer Route. The request is made specifically for the
following reasons:
.
The accident rate for heavy commercial vehicles at the intersection of Chestnut
Street and Main Street significantly exceeds the accident rate for commercial
vehicles throughout Minnesota and probably is higher than m.any other
intersections in the State.
e
. The route through town is restricted to a single lane with either a right turn or
a left turn lane posted at the Main and Chestnut Street intersections. Trucks must
leave the lane to make the turn.
. Trucks often encroach into the oncoming traffic lanes to make the turn through
the intersection.
. The peak hour volume to capacity ratio at the intersection of Main Street and
Chestnut Street is significantly higher than .7.
.. There are no known twin trailer terminals in the downtown Stillwater ate a or in
the area of Wisconsin immediately west of the St. Croix River.
. Alternate routes are readily available including Interstate 694 and 94 to the
Hudson bridge, Highway 95 through Bayport to the Hudson bridge, Highway 65
in Wisconsin from Interstate 94 to New Richmond and Highway 35 through
Hudson to Somerset.
For these reasons, we feel that the twin trailer route should be removed as soon as possible from
Highway 36 in the downtown Stillwater area. e

RESOLUfION REQUESTING REMOVAL OF TWIN TRAILER ROUI'E
FROM HIGHWAY 36 IN STILLWATER
BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of Stillwater that the City requests removal
of Highway 36 from the south junction of Highway 95 to the St. Croix River from the Minnesota
Twin Trailer Network System. The removal Is justified by the following facts:

2. The heavy commercial vehicles must leave turn lanes in order to turn at the intersection
of Main Street and Chestnut Street.
3. Trucks often encroach into oncoming traffic lanes to make tm:ns through the City.
4. Traffic congestion is magnified significantly whenever truck traffic makes the turn at the
Main Street and Chestnut Street intersection.
5- There are no known twin trailer terminals in the downtown Stillwater area.
6. Alternate routes for twin trailer trucks are readily available.

Dear Mr. Kriesel,
The River Valley Arts Council is looking to establish a permanent art center
in Stillwater. As we continue to study the many aspects of this undertaking, we look
forward to discussing this project with you.
In 1990, the S1. Croix Arts Task Force was formed as a result of an initiative
by then Governor Rudy Perpich. Flowing from the recommendations of that Task
Force, the River Valley Arts Council (RV AC) was formed with one of its goals to
investigate a St. Croix Valley Center for the Arts in Stillwater. The arts center could,
among other things, offer performance, exhibition, classroom, film screening, studio
and meeting space for people of all ages in eastern Washington County.
After months of review, RV AC has determined that the National Guard Ar-
mory on Chestnut Street, being vacated in 1995, would provide an excellent facility
from which to serve the expanding cultural needs of this area.
The S1. Croix Valley has a rich history dating back many decades of support-
ing the arts and artists. Today there is a growing appeal locally for the arts to have a
greater presence at the center of our community and civic lives. We are very inter-
ested in your thoughts on this and hope you will be able to take a few minutes to
share them with a R V AC board member who will be calling you soon.
Thank you for your consideration of this matter and your support of the River
Valley Arts Council.

Chairman Fontaine stated that he does not see a hardship in this case, as the garage could be built
closer to the house, and this would be an opportunity to bring the structure into compliance.

that this should be provided before the City Council meeting.

over the Benson's property. There will be a turn-around by the gym to accommodate community
access.

driveway. There is a 60 ft easement along his property for busses. Mr. Parker responded that

emergencies.

Deborah Walsh presented the application. There is one condition of approval which the applicant
agrees to.
Motion by Glenna Bealka, seconded by Dorothy Foster to approve the special use permit with one
condition. Carried 5-0.
OTHER BUSINESS
Discussion of reQuest for acquiring parkland - The Commission discussed a petition from
Green Twig Way property owners asking the City to purchase property for park/open space. The
subdivision of the property was recently requested and denied. Following discussion, the
Commission agreed that one home on the property would be acceptable. Mr. Russell stated that
this would reduce the cost to the City and still preserve the sensitive part of the site. The property
owner would not need approval for only one house. The park fees from the two subdivisions
which were approved at this meeting could be used to purchase the property.
Motion by Don Valsvik, seconded by Kirk Roetman to recommend to the City Council that a
portion or all of the property be purchase for open space, with development of only one lot, with
park dedication funds to be used for the purchase. Carried 5-0.
Consideration of request for a regulation to nrotect views and vistas.
John Kraemer presented a request to amend the building code to allow for protection of views and
vistas. The Commission discussed this request and determined that it would be difficult to define
a view, and also difficult to determine who owns a view. The Commission will keep the request
in mind as it updates the Comprehensive Plan.
ADJOURNMENT
Motion by Don Valsvik, seconded by Glenna Bealka to adjourn the meeting at 9:15 p.m. Carried.
The next Comprehensive Plan Update meeting will be held on Monday, May 2, 1994.

Dear Mayor or other City Official:
The Washington Center for Internships and Academic Seminars in cooperation with
the National League of Cities is pleased to present the academic seminar, Leadership
for America's Cities, to be held for one week at the NLC's Annual Congress of
Cities, December 1994. The goals of the program are to identify future municipal
leaders among today's college students, introduce them to the leadership issues that
influence city and town governments, and encourage them to become more actively
involved in related professional fields.
With the support of mayors, city council members and state municipal leagues, we
will be able to select the top 100 college students in the country who will gain
professionally from exposure to the people, organizations, and policy issues that
influence municipal governments today. We ask that you and others in your city
or town nominate your best candidates for these leadership fellowships and to
assist the chosen candidates with the necessary support to attend the seminar.
This is one of the best opportunities to identify college students in your area who
may seek a career in municipal government. Since all nominees will be recognized
in some way, your nominee(s) will bring credit to your city or town and demonstrate
the leadership potential that exists in your community.
Thank you for your interest in this exciting new program. For additional
information, contact Laura Hudson, Director of Academic Seminars at 1-800-486-
8921 or through her e-mail, LauraH@TWC.EDU.
Sincerely,
~~.~

Minneapolis, Minnesota
T he future of this nation lies in the hands of
our rising leaders. An ideal way to develop future lead-
ers is to introduce them to professionals who attempt to
tackle these issues at the front lines. Leadership for
America's Cities is designed to recognize the wealth of
potential municipal leaders of America and encourage
their increasing involvement in community issues.
This exceptional program has been designed by The
Washington Center for Internships and Academic Semi-
nars and the National League of Cities to create optimal
learning opportunities for some of the nation's most
promising college students.
'.
T mnsportation. Crime. Education. Electric Power.
Taxes. Water Trc:llment. Waste Disposal. Federal Mandates.
HealUI Care. NAffA. These words define some of the many im-
portant issues that affect America's cities and towns. Municipal-
ities working in concert with each other and with state and na-
tional authorities have the power and vision to rethink, refonn,
and rebuild the structure of America. Will our communities be
prepared to provide the leadership necessary to grapple with
these issues and seek solutions as our nation heads into the
21 st century?
Using the 1994 National League of Cities annual Congress of
Cities meeting in Minne'dpolis as a framework for learning,
these sllldenl~, to be called Leadership Fellows, will become
more knowledgeable about the issues and better prepared to
gain the leadership skills relevant to a fulllre career in public
service.
In December, these NLC Leadership Fellows \vill attend a
one-week academic seminar held in conjunction with the an-
nual NLC Congress of Cities meeting. The program is designed
to introduce college sllldents to professional and policy-related
issues facing municipal governments today and in the future. A
highlight will be a chance for the students to interact at a pro-
fessional level \\ith municipal leaders in order to gain a better
understanding of current issues facing our nation's towns and
cities.
Lelu(ershil) for America's Cities is a premier academic
program that will help college sllldents interested in a public
service career get on the fasttmck toward achieving their pro-
fessional goals. With the support of their city officials and stale
municipal leagues, Leadership Fellows will be introduced to the
penple, organizations, and issues of importance to those who
aspire to careers in municipal government.
