wm,konut- MACNUSONLAWN404.00M
It is not a healthy thing to have a law on the books that is ignored or enforced in a willy-
nilly fashion. If the votes are present on the Council, we could change our Code by passing an
Ordinance with just two readings. The change could permit sandwich boards of a certain size,
limit those that would obstruct pedestrians and impede views of traffic, and any other regulations
that are not based on squelching speech. This local action however, does not deal with the State
Law that prohibits advertising or other signage on the right of way. (It is interesting that benches
with ads and phone booths are permitted),
The problem is not unique to Stillwater. When streets like Main Street were planed, we
did not have a MnDOT, and all control over the right ofway was vested in the City. We allowed
zero lot line building on Main Street and in most of the Downtown. When MnDOT was created
by the legislature, the law allowed the Commissioner to designate the right of way by Order. So,
when the Order for Stillwater was written, it described just Main Street from Nelson to Laurel.
This order of the Commissioner can he amended. If the desire is to not prohibit, but regulate,
then we could ask MnDOT to amend its Order to exclude the sidewalk area. Then. if the
sidewalk is no longer part of the MnDOT system, the City would have the right to control and
regulate what goes on the sidewalk, According to a source at MnDOT, similar action was
taken for New Prague, Chaska, and Jordan in the West Metro, We stand ready to march if we
get the Order.
Respectfully,

MEMORANDUM
TO: Mayor & Council
FROM: City Administrator Hansen
SUBJECT: Budget — July 15, 2008
DATE: July 10, 2008
Gentlemen:
Attached is a summary sheet of significant line item changes for the departments that will be
presenting at the July 15th workshop. Also attached is the line item budget for your use.
As per your instructions, I have asked Department Heads to only highlight significant items and
they will work off of bullet sheets and talk only of significant items, unless asked further
questions.
As of this date, Sharon and I believe we will be able to submit a balanced budget to you for 2009
that will fall within levy limits and keep taxes generally flat. We are able to do this by taking
advantage of attrition and some of the recommendations of Department Heads.

Louis Jambois, executive director of Metro Cities, gave a Power Point presentation
about the organization's mission, recent accomplishments, and the benefits of
membership. He asked that the Council consider membership in 2009; the City's dues
in 2009 would be $6,226, he stated. Councilmember Gag asked whether the
organization would lobby on behalf of an individual city's specific interests. Mr. Jambois
responded that, for the most part, the organization takes on issues that affect more than
one city, but, he said, it tends to break down into groups of cities. He noted that few
issues affect all the organization's members equally. Councilmember Milbrandt referred
to the organization's legislative policies and spoke of the benefit the City has received
from the efforts of Metro Cities; he hoped when the Council goes through budget
hearings this year, it finds a way to join the organization.
Fire Station Site Discussion
Fire Chief Glaser stated subsequent to direction he received from the Council to
investigate alternative sites for construction of a new fire station, he had looked at a
number of alternate sites including Staples Field, the City parking lot near Owens and
McKusick Road, the area near Brick and Myrtle Street, the Dome site, and Northland
Avenue to Deerpath corridor. After reviewing these alternative sites, he said the most
City Council Meeting July 1, 2008
suitable area for a new station, primarily due to response times, road access and parcel
sizes, appears to be along Myrtle Street between Deerpath and Northland. In the
information packet, it was noted there are several options for locating a site in that
corridor — the Jaycee facility, Northland Park area, or purchase of private property.
Mayor Harycki asked if privately -owned parcels had been considered; Chief Glaser
responded he would be looking for direction from Council in that matter. Mayor Harycki
said he saw this as gathering information for updating the CIP in the budget process.
Councilmember Milbrandt asked about the information regarding the total market value
of properties protected from the existing facility and a proposed facility; Chief Glaser
explained that the figures indicate that the market value of properties that cannot be
reached within 8 minutes from the existing facilities totals $185.5 million; market values
of properties that are over an 8 minutes response time from a new facility would be $5.7
million. Councilmember Milbrandt asked to see a map showing the impact on Northland
Park should a station be located there; Chief Glaser said he had that information and
noted that Northland Park comprises about 20 acres, with the suggested need for a
station of about 3.5 acres. Mayor Harycki suggested the next logical step for the Council
is to evaluate this request in conjunction with the CIP. Councilmember Nyberg
suggested that the answers are clear that if a new fire station is constructed it has to be
in Deerpath-Northland corridor, as indicated in this latest information, and said the
Council needs to make a decision to lay the groundwork and put the plan in motion for
the eventuality of a new fire station. Councilmember Polehna said it should be made
clear that the Council is looking at a general area, not a specific site. Councilmember
Gag asked if there would be clear direction in review of the CIP; City Administrator
Hansen explained that staff prepares a five-year CIP that is updated/revised every year
in the budget process. Mr. Hansen pointed out that the fire station project currently is in
the unfunded category in the CIP, but this is a Council decision. There was discussion
of the estimated cost of the project. Chief Glaser said he could not give a good cost
estimate until a decision is made on a site, whether purchase of private property will be
involved, but noted that in the fire service study done several years ago, the cost was
estimated at $3.5 million; Mr. Hansen said the cost is estimated at $4 million in the CIP.
No action was taken.
STAFF REPORTS
Police Chief Gannaway told the Council he is looking at upgrading the police and fire
training room to serve as an emergency operations center. He said $10,000 had been
budgeted for that project. Some of the budgeted funds have been expended on the
emergency command post, which travels to the site of an emergency; there is still
$6,000 remaining in the budgeted funds. Councilmember Polehna noted that
Washington County is currently upgrading its command center and wondered about the
possibility of a cooperative effort, rather than having two separate command centers in
close proximity. Chief Gannaway responded that the intent in emergency planning is to
build up a redundancy in the event that one facility is not operable due to an emergency
situation. Mayor Harycki stated that in the aftermath of the Hugo tornado he had
received several calls from residents of the South Hill stating that the emergency sirens
weren't heard. Chief Gannaway said that siren has been repaired.

City Council Meeting July 1, 2008
Community Development Director Turnblad told the Council the Veterans Memorial
Committee has asked the Washington County Historical Society for permission to have
the arch from the old high school pass from control of the Historical Society to control of
the Veterans Memorial Committee. The Memorial Committee would like to place the
arch back in its original location to serve as an entry way to the Memorial. The Historical
Society has approved of the plan, he stated. He said if the Council approves of the
request, staff would stipulate that a plan be submitted to the Heritage Preservation
Commission for a recommendation to the Council. Councilmember Polehna said the
City should have some feedback as to where the arch is placed.
Motion by Councilmember Polehna, seconded by Councilmember Gag to direct Community
Development Director Turnblad to work with the Washington County Historical Society and
Veterans Memorial Committee on the possibility of moving the arch to the Veterans Memorial
site, subject to submitting a plan and working with the Heritage Preservation Commission and
neighbors regarding the location.
Councilmember Milbrandt spoke to potential attractive nuisance issues, and Mr.
Turnblad noted there are design issues as well.
Councilmember Polehna amended his motion to give concept approval to the plan to give the
arch to the Veterans Memorial Committee, with the Veterans Committee to come back with a
plan and work with the HPC and neighbors for a final decision by the Council. Councilmember
Gag amended his second. All in favor.
Community Development Director Turnblad noted there was a conflict of interest in the
low bid for the nuisance property contract and told the Council that the contract should
be awarded to the next low bidder. He said the revised contract was on the Consent
Agenda.
Mayor Harycki commended Public Works for stripping of the turn lane by the hospital.
Mayor Harycki also noted that Mn/DOT has moved the bridge project up to 2013 and
may move it up more pending the report on the condition of the lift bridge footings and
gussets. Mayor Harycki also stated he had information regarding traffic calming plans
that he would pass along to Chief Gannaway and Public Works Director Sanders; the
Mayor inquired as to whether staff had received any information about a traffic calming
school that is offered. Mr. Sanders said the classes have not been offered recently by
the University of Wisconsin, the former host for the classes. The Mayor asked staff to
search professional publications for information.
Finance Director Harrison reminded the Council of the upcoming budget -setting
workshops, July 15 from 4:30 to 6 p.m. and July 22 beginning at 4:30 p.m. to about 10
p.m.
City Administrator Hansen stated memos regarding a possible reorganization plan
would be sent to the Council by the end of the week for review prior to the first budget
meeting. He also told the Council that the preliminary budget is proceeding nicely.

City Council Meeting July 1, 2008
Councilmember Milbrandt reminded staff that the Council had indicated it does not want
to go through the departmental budgets line item by line item; Ms. Harrison said she
would eliminate line items and provide a summary by department. City Administrator
Hansen said he fully intends to bring the Council a budget that meets the levy cap and
said he hopes the process will be a little smoother this year.
The meeting was recessed at 5:29 p.m.

This is the date and time for a public hearing to consider the 2008 Sidewalk Rehabilitation
Proiect. Notices were mailed to affected property owners and published in the Stillwater
Gazette on June 20, 2008.
Public Works Director reviewed the proposed project which includes 63 properties and
about 4,650 square feet, primarily located on the North Hill and in the downtown area.
He reviewed the criteria for inclusion in the project — tripping hazard, ones that are
severely cracked, heaved, settled or misaligned. Cost is $49,000, with 50 percent of the
cost proposed to be assessed to the property owners, an assessment rate of $5.30 per
square foot. He noted that if approved, the plans and specs would be prepared for
Page 5 of 8
City Council Meeting July 1, 2008
possible contract award on Aug. 5, with construction in August and September and
assessment hearing in September or October.
Mayor Harycki opened the public hearing.
Carol Peterson, 704 Linden St. W., stated there are no cracks in her sidewalk that is in
the project area; there is a slight bit of leveling, she said. She wondered if the sidewalk
would be lifted in some way or taken out. Mr. Sanders responded that the two panels in
question would be removed and replaced with new concrete. Ms. Peterson pointed out
the color of the new section will be different and wondered if there was some way to
lift/shift the sections. Mr. Sanders responded that is not possible.
Robyn Partch, general manager of Northern Vineyards, 223 N. Main St., stated there is
not a single crack in any of the sections in front of Northern Vineyards, none of the
sections are titled, lifted or depressed, and said he saw no reason why the sidewalk
should be replaced. It was agreed to have staff visit the site. Mr. Sanders said staff
would look at the sidewalk and meet with the property owner.
No other comments were received, and the hearing was closed.
Motion by Councilmember Nyberg, seconded by Councilmember Milbrandt to adopt
Resolution 2008-91, ordering improvement and preparation of plans & specifications for the
2008 Sidewalk Rehabilitation Project (Project 2008-05), subject to review of the property at
223 N. Main Street.

COMMUNICATIONS/REQUESTS
Mayor Harycki stated that Council had been asked to address the issue of sandwich
boards in the downtown district in order to provide staff with clear direction as to
whether to proceed with enforcement of signage/sandwich board ordinance. He said the
City had just received a request from the Chamber to postpone enforcement of any
sidewalk signage until October 31, to allow the Chamber to work with the Heritage
Preservation Commission to come up with alternate plan. City Administrator Hansen
explained that Council has visited this issue of sandwich boards several times but that
he and staff remain unclear as to the direction of the majority of Council on the issue,
and before sending out letters with a possible follow-up of administrative fines for
violations, he wanted to make sure that is the Council's clear direction. Councilmember
Polehna said from the last discussion on this issue, his understanding is that it is illegal
to have sandwich board signs under City ordinance and according to state law on
Minnesota highways. Councilmember Polehna also noted this issue has been
discussed with the Chamber, and the Chamber was supposed to come up with a
proposed policy before summer; he said he thought it was time to make a decision.
Councilmember Nyberg questioned how the City could draft an ordinance or policy
Page 6 of 8
City Council Meeting July 1, 2008
allowing sandwich boards on Main Street, a state highway, which the state says is
illegal. Councilmember Gag agreed and felt that a legal opinion is needed, and said he
would not promote the use of sandwich boards if that is in violation of state law.
Councilmember Polehna pointed out that sandwich boards are in violation of the City's
existing ordinance. Mayor Harycki said it was his understanding the Chamber is close to
putting a proposal forth and is bringing the proposal to the HPC. Community
Development Director Turnblad pointed out if an ordinance is involved, it would not go
to the HPC, and it likely would go to the Planning Commission for public hearing. Mayor
Harycki said he would like the HPC to look at the proposal, for its input, and then go to
Planning. Councilmember Milbrandt suggested that until an opinion is received from
City Attorney Magnuson, consideration of any alternate policy is premature. There was
discussion about subjective enforcement. It was noted that when the City receives a
request to hang a banner over Main Street, the City must submit a permit request to
Mn/DOT for approval. Councilmember Nyberg said if the Council agreed that the
existing ordinance shouldn't be enforced, then the ordinance ought to be revoked, but
he said the City can't have a new ordinance (allowing sandwich boards) that is in direct
violation of state law.
Motion by Councilmember Nyberg to revoke the current sign ordinance; motion died for lack of
a second.
Motion by Councilmember Polehna, seconded by Councilmember Gag to continue working
with the Chamber, obtain a legal opinion from City Attorney Magnuson, obtain information from
the Mn/DOT, that the City not proceed with enforcement until the legal opinion is received on
July 15; and then make a final decision. 3-2 (Councilmembers Milbrandt and Nyberg -nay)
COUNCIL REQUEST ITEMS
Councilmember Polehna stated the Human Rights Commission would like to
recommend Eric Anderson, who works with the diversity programs for School District
834, as the recipient of this year's Human Rights Award. He asked that the Council
accept the Human Rights Commission's recommendation.
Motion by Councilmember Polehna, seconded by Councilmember Nyberg to recommend Eric
Anderson as the recipient of the Human Rights Award for 2008. All in favor.
Councilmember Polehna expressed his interest in serving on the GEARS Committee
described earlier in the meeting by Mr. Jambois. Mayor Harycki said he thought his
name had been submitted for consideration, but the City could certainly submit Mr.
Polehna's name as a second nomination.
Councilmember Gag asked about any long-term plans for the old Public Works
building/land by Lily Lake. Mr. Sanders stated there are no long-term plans at this point;
the site currently is used for storage of equipment. City Administrator Hansen said there
had been past discussion on this issue several years ago, and at that time, the Council
Page 7 of 8
City Council Meeting July 1, 2008
decided it did not want to sell any additional City property; he stated that decision is
certainly reviewable by Council at any time.
ADJOURNMENT to executive session for performance review
Motion by Councilmember Gag, seconded by Councilmember Polehna moved to adjourn to
executive session at 7:40 p.m. All in favor.

The Honorable Kenneth Harycki, Mayor
City of Stillwater
214 North Fourth Street
Stillwater, MN 55082
Dear Mayor Harycki and Council:
This year marked the 30th anniversary of the Youth Service Bureau (YSB) serving the St.
Croix Valley area. This milestone was achieved because of the continuous support we have
received from the City of Stillwater. This partnership is both remarkable and humbling. The
City's sustained commitment and confidence has made it possible for the YSB to pursue
and refine effective interventions for at -risk youth. With your support we have been able to
build partnerships with other communities, law enforcement, schools and the courts to better
meet the changing needs of youth and their families. We are asking that you continue this
partnership in 2009 by contributing $37,500 to assist us in improving the lives of young
people.
Again last year the YSB served over 2,000 youth and their parents. There were 407 youth
from Stillwater. Of this group 85% did not get re -involved in the juvenile justice system six
months after completing a program.
As you may recall, last year the Wilder Foundation completed a study to determine the
return on investment for early intervention and prevention programs like the YSB's. Their
findings point out that for these targeted programs over $8 is returned for every dollar
invested. These services are more important today than ever before and underscore the
problems and expense associated with treating juveniles after they have entered the
juvenile justice system. Our core programs continue to be community diversion services.
They are intended to give law enforcement quick access to programs for minor juvenile
offenders who would otherwise be petitioned to court. Community based and immediately
available, we continue to provide a response that is swift and effective. We will also
continue to provide specialized mental health services that help young people and their
families realize their strengths, find worthwhile ways to resolve problems and go forward.
On behalf of our Board of Directors, thank you for your consideration and support in finding
local solutions that are affordable, accessible and effective. I look forward to meeting with
the council to discuss our request in more detail.

2 2007 YSB Annual Report
Director's Letter
The year 2007 marked the
beginning of several new initiatives
as well as a reaffirmation of our core
mission of providing early
intervention alternatives for youth
and their families to realize their
strengths, resolve problems and
create positive futures. To bolster
this mission we launched a renewed
three-year plan to ensure accessible, affordable, respectful
and inclusive programs and services throughout our
community.This past year our primary programs remained
Youth Focused Family Counseling for youth who are at -risk
due to social, emotional or behavior problems and
Community Justice Programs designed to provide an
alternative to court for low-level juvenile offenders.
Working closely with law enforcement, schools and the
court, we served over 2200 youth and their families in
07 from locations in Stillwater, Woodbury, Cottage
ove and River Falls, Wisconsin.
In addition, we initiated
another school -based partnership
with Stillwater Area Schools with
the Chemical Health Prevention
Specialist Program. Our Board of
Directors completed the first year of
a three year matching grant
program with the St Croix Valley
Community Foundation to raise
$50,000 for our Long Term Fund.
We participated in a recent Social
Return on Investment study
YSB 2007 Staff
2007 YSB Annual Report
conducted by the Wilder Research Center in collaboration
with the University of Minnesota. The study concluded
targeted intervention programs like the YSB Awareness
Classes return a savings of over $8 to the community for
every dollar spent. The study was Commissioned by the
Minnesota Youth Intervention Programs Association, of
which the YSB is a member.
As you read this brief review of the past year you will
see a long list of partners who support this important work.
The Board of Directors and staff want to thank each and
every one of our partners for your support and
commitment. We have been able to use innovative and
proven practices that produce positive, measurable results
for over thirty years because so many of you share our
vision of a hopeful future for all young people.

My World
When my world turned upside
down, the only good part was the
chance to live with Grandma. That
was a special place —full of fun and
attention. It's where 1 felt like the
center of the world.
Imagine my shock when I still had
to get up, go to school, and take care
of everyday responsibilities. Was this
my grandma?
My brothers and I saw a counselor
during that time. We were
encouraged to talk, but it just didn't
seem to make a lot of difference. My
parents were still into drugs.
After my parents got some of
their difficulties handled, my brothers

would like to talk with someone.
She already had someone in mind:
the YSB counselor who first helped
her to see, when my mom was a
teen, that addictions were messing
up our family.
With my YSB counselor, I still
have to do all the work. But he
makes me think. Sometimes he just
makes my head spin.
Yet just the other day, I looked
in the mirror and could honestly
say,"I'm l'm beautiful. I deserve a good
day." Finally, I know I'm so much
more than the daughter of a drug

Getting My Life Together
It was eight o'clock in the
morning and I was skipping school
to get high. I had done this on a
daily basis for two months of my
senior year. I was lazy, not doing my
homework, and feeling really slow.
I brought weed to school and got
pinned for selling it. I was in deep
trouble; more than I never even
thought was possible. I was facing
two felony charges, and was almost
expelled.
The school let me attend The
Youth and Community
Accountability and Prevention
Program (YCAPP) so I could
graduate. I was required to go for
forty-five days and I thought it was a
big joke.
Now after over a month, I have to
say, I might miss this place. I've been
going to treatment, eating healthier,
exercising, and getting all my
schoolwork done.
YCAPP has helped me to clean up
my act and start doing the right thing.
I get to go back and finish a couple
months of my senior year soon, but I
will never forget the downward spiral
of bad decisions I had once made. I
know my life is heading in the right
direction now, and I feel great.

Lessons Learned
I learned some lessons that
will stick with me for a lifetime
while doing my Community
Work Service and attending the
Theft Awareness Program at the
YSB. Community Work
Service gave me a
chance to think about
the decision I made the
night I was ticketed for
theft of services.
I realized I
could've done
things
differently and
maybe even
prevented
the
situation
from
happening.
I now
can see who
I was trying to be
instead of who
I really am. I
learned that just
because my friends
think something is
the thing to do, that
doesn't make it so.
It's okay if my friends
make different
decisions.
I learned that I
should step up and say
something when I don't
agree with my friends. I
need to let them know
where I stand and even
maybe walk away. Maybe
I can make them stop and think
before doing something wrong.
Maybe I can influence them to
do something right.
The Theft Awareness
Program helped me see that
theft is a big problem around
the country. I learned that
the simple ad of one person
actually affects a lot of
people.
The program
helped me deal with
the guilt that was
building up inside.
When I let go of my
guilt, my life became
much easier. Now I can
see that I was quickly
becoming a person I really
don't want to be.
Thank you, Youth
Service Bureau for giving
me the opportunities and
new experiences to see
how just one person can
affect a whole family or
even a community. Also,
thanks for letting me see
who I really want to be in
life: the one who sticks
up for what is right!

Service to Youth
Annette Mullen, left, received the 2007 Service to Youth
Award from Myra Peterson at theYouth Service Bureau Board -
Staff Holiday celebration. For the past six years, Annette
significantly increased the
number of corporate
sponsors for the South
Washington County Garden
Tour.
In 2001, Annette and her
husband Dick agreed to show
their garden as part of the
annual tour. During the tour,
two of her grandchildren set up a lemonade booth and then donated
their proceeds to theYSB. Not to be outdone by the younger crowd,
Mullen took on the assignment to increase sponsorships for the tour.
Under Annette's leadership, the number of sponsors for the
garden tour grew from eight sponsors in 2001 to twenty sponsors
by 2007. The tour now contributes $10,000 a year to support
YSB's youth focused family counseling and community justice
programs.
Planning for the 2008 South Washington County Garden Tour
is now underway. The tour will feature 10-12 local gardens and
ponds, including a visit to the Mullens. Individuals interested in
helping with the garden tour can contact the YSB at 651-458-
5224 for information.
The Very First Spirit of
the Mission Award
During 2007, the YSB established the
Spirit of the Mission Award as a way for staff
to recognize their colleagues who best
exemplify the spirit of the organization. The
award may be presented not more than every
six months.
The very first Spirit of the Mission recipient is Amy McGee, the
Administrative Secretary at the YSB Stillwater Service Center. Amy greets
guests and callers at the Stillwater center, supports the Executive Director
and previously handled insurance matters for all of the YSB service centers.
"Amy truly embodies the ideals of theYSB with her friendly smile, ready
willingness to help others and her constant striving to serve our clients well,"
remarked Executive Director Paul Weiler in bestowing the award.
The Second Spirit of the Mission Award
-o
m

The Fall 2007 Spirit of the Mission
Award was presented to Karen Donovan,
the Administrative Secretary at the
Woodbury YSB Service Center. Karen
always has a friendly welcome for youth
and families at Woodbury, and previously
at Cottage Grove. She also handles
support for the Community Justice
Programs. Prior to her recent retirement
and reduction of hours to just two days a
week, Karen conducted selected
Awareness Classes on Saturday mornings,
for the convenience of families,_
currently assists with the coordination
agency volunteer program.

Larry D. Hansen
City of Stillwater
216 North 4t Street
Stillwater, MN 55082
Dear Mr. Hansen,
Enriching Lives
Greetings to you from the Board and staff of Community Volunteer Service and
Senior Centers! I am writing to share some information with you about Community
Volunteer Service and Senior Centers and to ask for your support.
What is CVS?
Community Volunteer Service and Senior Centers (CVS) is a non-profit organization
that has served the City of Stillwater since 1967. The founders of CVS believed that
community needs could be met by coordinating volunteers. This core belief continues
to be our reason for operating today and all CVS programs and services are designed
to meet critical community needs by engaging volunteers from throughout the county.
Today the mission of CVS is promoting, supporting and encouraging volunteerism
to serve the needs of the community.
What does CVS do?
CVS coordinates six programs and manages two service sites in Washington County.
Our senior centers offer dozens of social, educational, and volunteer activities for the
county's seniors each and every week in both Stillwater and Bayport. Our programs,
all with the spirit of volunteerism at their core, include the Transportation Program,
the Volunteer Center, the Neighborhood Service Exchange, the Medical Reserve
Corps and the seasonal Holiday Bureau. Outcome information for each of these
programs is included in the CVS Stillwater and Washington County statistic sheets.
How does CVS serve my city?
Each year CVS serves thousands of Washington County residents, including residents
who live in Stillwater. The services provided by CVS are both necessary and critical
for the residents who use them whether daily or yearly. I have enclosed information
about the specific services that have been provided to residents in Washington County
throughout 2007.
2300 Orleans St. W. Stillwater, MN 55082
651-439-7434 • www.volunteercvs.org
•
As elected officials with financial and community building responsibilities for your city, we
understand that you face many difficult issues and questions about how to lead your community. It
is our hope, and our sincere belief, that CVS assists you in providing critical services to residents of
your city and that we are improving the quality of life in your community by connecting people to
services and to the power of volunteerism.
But we also believe we can do more. The recent tornado in Hugo represents the power of
volunteerism. And for those cities on the river, the importance of accessing volunteers to sandbag
in the event of flooding is critical. CVS Staff is trained in disaster volunteer management and is
willing to assist cities and townships with volunteer coordination in the event of an emergency. We
are able to do this as one of the 350 Volunteer Centers nation wide and as experts in volunteer
registration, risk management, and coordination. CVS works closely with Washington County's
Emergency Management Department and the Minnesota VOAD (Volunteer Organizations Active in
Disaster) but can provide a close local connection and resource to cities that need volunteers
urgently to respond to a local crisis.
What can my city do to support CVS?
Consider making a financial contribution to CVS. Here are three examples of how far your
financial gift can go at CVS:
• $750 covers the cost of the transportation program for one week while meeting a critical
need in the community by pairing volunteer drivers with people who need transportation to
medical appointments.
• $1,500 provides a month's worth of social programming for seniors who visit one of our two
senior centers. Activities include Bunco, cribbage, pool, oil painting classes, book club,
bridge club, aerobics, and a hot nutritious noon meal.
• $3,500 provides staffing support for the CVS Volunteer Center, the link between people
who want to volunteer and opportunities to serve.
CVS is able to leverage every dollar received by engaging community volunteers to help deliver the
services we provide. In 2007, more than 750 volunteers contributed 13,273 hours of service
through CVS programs alone. This is a value of more than $249,134.
We would like 10 minutes during one of your city council meetings or work sessions to provide a
presentation and discussion about CVS so that you and your residents have the opportunity to both
learn about services and resources that might be helpful to them and can hear about what CVS is
doing from day to day to serve the residents of your city.
For more information about any of the CVS programs or to schedule a presentation please call me at
651-439-7434. CVS is pleased and honored to have provided services to residents of Washington
County for more than 41 years. Your support as we continue to provide those services is greatly
appreciated.
Sincerely,

A Letter from the President and Executive Director
February 2008
The year 2007 marked our 40th year of service to the community! The mission our
founders set out to fulfill, that coordinated volunteers can have an impact in meeting
the needs of the community, is still relevant today. This report is a milestone in the
life of Community Volunteer Service and Senior Centers. As we celebrate 40 years of
service, we invite you to enjoy the highlights, successes, and happy moments from
our service in 2007 and our first 40 years.
The Board of Directors, Staff and Volunteers of CVS have worked hard to fulfill
today's mission of promoting, supporting, and encouraging volunteerism to serve the
needs of the community. Through direct and indirect service we impact issues of
poverty, volunteer management, and senior involvement and isolation. We sustain
volunteerism by connecting people and enriching lives.
Our six programs and services generated more than 13,200 volunteer hours from 750
different volunteers. Our 11 dedicated staff people have worked tirelessly to ensure
that each person who requests a service from CVS, whether it's for a ride, tax
assistance, or information about senior housing, is treated with respect and given an
accurate and relevant response. Finally, these efforts could not continue without the
support of our donors and volunteers who increase our capacity to fulfill our mission
with their generosity, trust, and commitment.
The 2007 Annual Report captures a few of the stories about real people's lives that
have been touched by a program or service offered here at Community Volunteer
Service and Senior Centers. We are fortunate to be part of so many people's stories
during the year and we think that you will feel inspired by reading them.
For 40 years CVS has been a gathering place for volunteers, a grassroots response to
community needs, a good neighbor, and an organization committed to fostering
connections in people's lives. We are privileged to be at this point in our history and
ask you to help us reflect on 40 years of service to the community by sharing the
following stories with your friends and families. Thank you for celebrating this
milestone with us.

Stillwater Senior Center
The Senior Center has many wonderful people who participate in programs, attend
classes, and volunteer. Two of these volunteers, Vern and Edie Hophan, are quite a
team!
Edie is an "on -call" volunteer who often assists as a front -desk receptionist. As a
member of the Senior Center Vision Team she partakes in a group that meets
throughout the year to share ideas and suggestions for programming. She is eager
to assist with preparations or to take down special events and also is a participant
in several Senior Center programs. Vern, who gives a cheerful "V for Volunteer"
sign, is art exceptional volunteer and activity participant. Vern is the guy to call
when the faucets are dripping and the lights are flickering. He's an enthusiastic
handyman, always ready to lend a helping hand. Like his wife, Vern is eager to
share his time as a consultant on special projects, as well as a hands-on helper -
never too busy to be of assistance. Both Edie and Vern, contribute to rnaldng CVS
programs successful by being eager to learn and willing to try new things. In turn,
the Senior Centers provide opportunities to Vern and Edie to use their skills, stay
active in their community, and have a feeling of accomplishment by giving much
needed support to our programs.
Vern and Edie are just two great examples of what the term "active seniors" is all
about, being role models to their peers and to those of us nearing our senior years.
We are proud and fortunate to have so many "active seniors."

Bayport Senior Center
The Bayport Senior Center is known for fun activities and
intergenerational programming. Each year, Bayport
Senior Center staff and seniors work with teacher Laurel
Avery and the 41h graders from Andersen School, In the
fall we have an afternoon of Senior Profiles in which the
students visit the Center and ask the seniors various
questions about their history. Many of the seniors have
gone to Bayport School (now Andersen) and they are
very proud of the school. I asked one girl to select three
people she thought went to Andersen School. What an
actress she was. She paced the floor, looked at everyone,
rubbed her jaw, and then pointed her finger at P'nuts
Bell, "I know you, you are P'nuts Bell, you went to Bayport
School, and you know a lot about Bayport history. My
sister told me to look for you because you are a good
story teller." That afternoon, a small group of 6th grade
students came over from the school to say "hello." They
wanted to check on their old buddies. P'nuts has said,
"Every time those kids come, I learn something new".

Irina McCracken
"Helping people when
they need it gives me a
great feeling. I like to
bring the positive side of
my character and help other
people realize how
beautiful this life can be if
you just don't lose hope."
Volunteer Center
Irina McCracken joined the Volunteer Center in August 2007. She volunteers
every Thursday. Irina is originally from the Ukraine and has lived in the state of
Minnesota since moving to the United States six years ago. Irina has a degree in
Economics from Ukraine. She is currently pursuing her degree in Accounting and
is the Mother of a twelve year old daughter.
"Volunteering is a new experience for me. It is a time of educational growth. Every
day spent working at Community Volunteer Service and Senior Centers gives me
more confidence and enriches my life simply by offering little improvements for
others. Helping people when they need it gives me a great feeling. I like to bring
the positive side of my character and help other people to realize how beautiful this
life can be if you just don't lose hope.
I definitely can say that volunteering through the Volunteer Center has helped me
to recognize new talents and draw on previous experiences. I have met friendly
and warm people here. The environment is welcoming. Volunteering has brought
a lot of positive experiences into my life. My self esteem improved and I am a
better parent to my daughter. My daughter is happier. I am glad to have met the
people at Community Volunteer Service and am proud to be a volunteer!"

Holiday Bureau
Each year CVS hears very poignant stories from people who apply for
assistance through Holiday Bureau. Many families and individuals would not
have a happy holiday without the generosity of sponsors who "adopt" them
through the program. Others in the community donate gifts and financial
support to CVS, so we in turn can provide gifts to those who do not have
direct sponsors. Several of those receiving gifts wrote touching thank you
notes, some of which are quoted here.
"Thank you for the gift cards to Target. I was able to buy diapers, supplies
and a small gift for my son. Your good work and generosity are greatly
appreciated."
-- From a newly single mom with a toddler who called
C.VS sobbing, not knowing how she was going to provide
for her child.
"I thank you for giving my children a Merry
Christmas. If you all weren't working so hard our
family wouldn't be blessed. Thank you very
much."

Neighborhood Service Exchange
Linda Facklam and Evelyn Vincent live on the same street in Oakdale.
They are friends as well as members of the Neighborhood Service
Exchange. Linda is the Chairperson of the NSE and
joined the program in 1998. She recruited
Evelyn, who joined the NSE in 2001. Linda
helps Evelyn with transportation to medical
appointments, shopping and to NSE
Gatherings at the CVS office. Evelyn clips
coupons for Linda and shares her homemade
jelly, too. They call each other to "see how
things are going." They are supportive of
one another. Over the years, they have
talked to other neighbors and friends about
the NSE and shared their NSE experiences.
They enjoy the Gatherings and special
events, and the chance to reconnect with
other NSE members and meet new people.
Linda and Evelyn are wonderful examples of
the way the NSE connects members in the
community and the importance of giving and
receiving services.

Medical Reserve Corps
In 2004, CVS began a partnership with Washington County to train medical personnel
who could respond to a public health emergency. Since then, MRC members have as-
sisted with flood relief, hurricane relief, the I35 bridge collapse, and other incidents like
the following story from MRC member Trish Grover:
"The MRC Mass Dispensing Exercise experience has helped me in many ways and most
certainly right now while in Uganda. I am in the process of organizing and developing a
pediatric diabetic program here in Mulago. They do things very differently than we do
and I can not stress enough that the training I received I have put to use here.
Patients come to the Mulago clinic from miles away. Most have walked for many days just
to attend the clinic. It was unorganized and inefficient to say the least. With only one doc-
tor, nurse and one table to see all the patients it can get very chaotic. I realized halfway
through the first clinic that I needed to take over the organizational aspects. I set up points
of contact for the triage nurse, a nurse to take the Blood Glucose, the Doctor and then to
me for the diabetic education. I borrowed another table and set the flow for the clinic.
Although I thought it went very slowly, I was told that it went very quickly because of the
way it was set up....which of course I had copied from the MRC exercise.
All said and done, I believe that when the time comes for the activation of the Washington
County Unit I believe we will be ready and more prepared than if we had not had the
training with the hands-on experience".

COMMUNITY VOLUNTEER SERVICE AND SENIOR CENTERS
Larry Peterson of Marine on St. Croix has been a volunteer driver with the CVS
Transportation program for many years. In his own words, here is what the
experience means to him:
"Over the past seventeen years I have known many people, learned their
life stories and have exchanged some of my own with them. When I total
up the miles, I say I'm on my sixth trip around the world helping those
who can't get to appointments on their own. Here are some examples of
clients I have driven: They don't own an automobile or are beyond the
ability to have a license, mothers with children in car seats, the
handicapped in some way, partially blind or hearing impaired persons.
One of my goals is to see that any veteran that needs to get to the VA
Hospital in Minneapolis gets to keep his or her appointment. Veterans
coming back from Iraq, Bosnia, Afghanistan or Kuwait may need these
services. I feel there will be a great need for volunteer drivers in the
future. These persons may have many physical or psychological needs
because of the experiences they have gone through."

CVS Honors
VI RUSSELL AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN VOLUNTEER LEADERSHIP
The Vi Russell Award for Excellence in Volunteer Leadership has been given since
1994 to individuals who have demonstrated excellence in volunteer leadership by
leading, inspiring, and organizing volunteers to engage in meeting local community
needs. The Award is named after Ms. Vi Russell who served as the first Executive
Director of Cortununity Volunteer Service. Throughout a long period of time in the
1970's and 1980's, Vi acted as an advocate and leader for the state of Minnesota in the
field of volunteerism.
Bill Funari dedicated 39 years as a Volunteer Coordinator, the last seven with the
Washington County District Court during which time he recruited, trained, supervised
and recognized volunteers to assist court customers in navigating the courthouse and
the court system.
According to Bill's supervisor Wayne Minske, one of the results of Bill's efforts in
coordinating and inspiring volunteers, was that the work done at the Washington
County Courthouse became more efficient. "Because of Bill's leadership, volunteers greet customers with a
smiling face in what can be an anxious setting. Without Bill, the Court Volunteer program would not exist."
Even now after retirement, Bill is finding ways to stay connected to the program he founded. "Bill retired from
the Court and his Volunteer Coordinator position in December 2006. He couldn't stay away very long, returning
as a Conciliations Court Mediator as soon as he could."
COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT AWARDS SPOTLIGHT OUTSTANDING VOLUNTEERS

The Community Involvement Awards event spotlights individuals who are active citizens and volunteers in

Marine communities. Sherrill's nominator, Dana Ahlness, the Guardian Ad Litem Program

County, pets included!"

her nomination remarks Kirn wrote, "Mary exemplifies the hind of service that is
the bedrock for communities - steady, conscientious and committed to
organizations for long periods of time." Lisa Gacek, the Volunteer Coordinator

reliable and rarely misses her shift on Saturdays. She is very friendly,
welcoming, and cheerful."

The Outstanding Youth Award recognizes a young person under the age of 18 for his or
her volunteer service with an organization or project that helps to meet the needs of the

her volunteer efforts at several organizations. Briana currently volunteers as a Sunday
School Assistant Teacher with her church, is a Leader in Training for the City of
Woodbury's Summer Childcare program, a respite childcare provider for a family in
crisis, and coordinates volunteer promotions for the Volunteer Center program at
Community Volunteer Service, Briana is also active in her School's Key Club and
National Honor Society. Her father, Keith Gruenewald wrote about Briana in his

role model for other young citizens. By consistently exhibiting her strong work ethic
and compassion, she has proven her commitment to the welfare and well-being of
others."

Outstanding Group Volunteer: Cottage Grove Peace Keeping Circle
The Outstanding Group Award recognizes a group of volunteers for their commendable
volunteer service to the community. This year's recipients are the volunteers of the
Cottage Grove Peacekeeping Circle. According to the group's Circle Keeper and Trainer,
Kay Longtin, "The circle is a Restorative Practice called Sentencing Circles that customizes
the penalty or sentence to heal the harm to victims of Domestic Assault and to offer
offenders support to change their behavior." The group works in partnership with the
Criminal Justice system, the Cottage Grove prosecutor, and Tubman Family Alliance. A
group of volunteers meets with the offender twice a month for approximately three months
and ends with the Sentencing Circle. After sentencing, the same circle meets for 12-24
months to offer more support for changed behavior and to build new relationships with
community members. Currently, 11 volunteers participate in six different circles.

Subj: Stillwater Traffic Issues - Manning Avenue Construction

Councilman Polehna -
At your request, we have reviewed some of the traffic issues in the Liberty and Legends neighborhoods
associated with the Manning Avenue reconstruction project. We wanted to provide a brief update of the
improvements that we will be implementing.
We are going to be replacing the existing "Access to Local Businesses" signs on our County roadways
with new signs saying "Liberty Village Businesses". The new signs will have larger text and arrows to
provide better visibility and guidance for motorists trying to get to the businesses. The signs will be
installed at the following existing locations:
- westbound County Road 12 east of Rutherford Road
- eastbound County Road 12 west of Rutherford Road
- southbound Manning Avenue north of County Road 12
We will also be installing a new sign on southbound Rutherford Road at the roundabout to help direct
traffic to use New England Place (past the Liberty House) to get to the businesses. This sign should
help prevent motorists trying to get to the businesses from travelling south on Rutherford Road through
the neighborhood.
Regarding the traffic speed concerns in both the Liberty and Legends neighborhoods, we are working
with the Stillwater Police Department to set up a temporary Driver Feedback Sign (the sign that
displays "Your Speed Is XX") to help reduce any speeding that is occurring.
We will continue to monitor the area for any traffic changes, safety concerns, and other items that come
up. Please let us know if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Nik

Board of Water Commissioners
of the City of Stillwater
Stillwater, Minnesota
We have audited the financial statements of Board of Water Commissioners, component unit of the City of
Stillwater, Minnesota, for the year ended December 31, 2007, and have issued our report thereon dated March 28,
2008. Professional standards require that we provide you with the following information related to our audit.
Our Responsibility under U.S. Generally Accepted Auditing Standards
As stated in our engagement letter dated September 10, 2007, our responsibility, as described by professional
standards, is to express opinions about whether the financial statements prepared by management with your
oversight are fairly presented, in all material respects, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting
principles. Our audit of the financial statements does not relieve you or management of your responsibilities.
1. Our responsibility is to plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable, but not absolute, assurance that
the financial statements are free of material misstatement.
2. As part of our audit, we considered the internal control of Stillwater Board of Water Commissioners.
Such considerations were solely for the purpose of determining our audit procedures and not to provide
any assurance concerning such internal control.
We are responsible for communicating significant matters related to the audit that are, in our professional
judgment, relevant to your responsibilities in overseeing the financial reporting process. However, we are
not required to design procedures specifically to identify such matters.
Other Information in Documents Containing Audited Financial Statements
Our audit opinion, the audited financial statements, and the notes to financial statements should only be used in
their entirety. Inclusion of the audited financial statements in a client prepared document, such as an annual
report, should be done only with our prior approval and review of the document. Our responsibility for other
information in documents containing the entity's financial statements and report does not extend beyond the
financial information identified in the report. We do not have an obligation to perform any procedures to
corroborate other information contained in such documents.
Planned Scope and Timing of the Audit
We performed the audit according to the planned scope and timing previously communicated to you in our
meeting about planning matters on February 19, 2008.
Significant Audit Findings
Qualitative Aspects of Accounting Practices
Management is responsible for the selection and use of appropriate accounting policies. In accordance with the
terms of our engagement letter, we will advise management about the appropriateness of accounting policies and
their application. The significant accounting policies used by Stillwater Board of Water Commissioners are
described in Note 1 to the financial statements. No new accounting policies were adopted and the application of
existing policies was not changed during 2007.

We noted no transactions entered into by the Governmental Unit during the year for which there is a lack of
authoritative guidance or consensus. There are no significant transactions that have been recognized in the
financial statements in a different period than when the transaction occurred.
Accounting estimates are an integral part of the fmancial statements prepared by management and are based on
management's knowledge and experience about past and current events and assumptions about future events.
Certain accounting estimates are particularly sensitive because of their significance to the financial statements and
because of the possibility that future events affecting them may differ significantly from those expected. The most
sensitive estimate affecting the financial statements was:
Management's estimate of the useful lives of capital assets is based on authoritative guidance and past
experience. We evaluated the key factors and assumptions used to develop this estimate in determining that it
is reasonable in relation to the financial statements taken as a whole.
Difficulties Encountered in Performing the Audit
We encountered no significant difficulties in dealing with management in performing and completing our audit.
Corrected and Uncorrected Misstatements
Professional standards require us to accumulate all known and likely misstatements identified during the audit,
other than those that are trivial, and communicate them to the appropriate level of management. Management has
corrected all such misstatements. In addition, none of the misstatement detected as a result of audit procedures
and corrected by management were material, either individually or in the aggregate, to the financial statements
taken as a whole. Management did not identify and we did not notify them of any uncorrected financial statement
misstatements.
Disagreements with Management
For purposes of this letter, professional standards define a disagreement with management as a financial
accounting, reporting, or auditing matter, whether or not resolved to our satisfaction, that could be significant to
the financial statements or the auditors' report. We are pleased to report that no such disagreements arose during
the course of our audit.
Management Representations
We have requested certain representations from management that are included in the management representation
letter dated March 28, 2008.
Management Consultations with Other Independent Accountants
In some cases, management may decide to consult with other accountants about auditing and accounting matters,
similar to obtaining a "second opinion" on certain situations. If a consultation involves application of an
accounting principle to the Governmental Unit's financial statements or a determination of the type of auditors'
opinion that may be expressed on those statements, our professional standards require the consulting accountant
to check with us to determine that the consultant has all the relevant facts. To our knowledge, there were no such
consultations with other accountants.

Other Audit Findings or Issues
We generally discuss a variety of matters, including the application of accounting principles and auditing
standards, with management each year priorto retention as the Commission's auditors. However, these
discussions occurred in the normal course of our professional relationship and our responses were not a condition
to our retention.
This information is intended solely for the use of the Members of the Board of Water Commissioners and
management and is not intended to be and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Board of Water Commissioners

Stillwater, Minnesota
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements of the Board of Water Commissioners as of and
for the year ended December 31, 2007, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United
States of America, we considered the Commission's internal control over financial reporting (internal control) as
a basis for designing our auditing procedures for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial
statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the Commission's internal
control. Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the Commission's internal control.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the preceding paragraph and would
not necessarily identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be significant deficiencies or material
weaknesses. However, as discussed below, we noted certain deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be
significant deficiencies and other deficiencies that we consider to be material weaknesses.
Statement on Auditing Standards 112 (SAS 112), Communicating Internal Control Matters Identified in an Audit,
states that "a control deficiency exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or
employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent or detect misstatements on a
timely basis." The standard further states, "a significant deficiency is a control deficiency, or combination of
control deficiencies, that adversely affects the entity's ability to initiate, authorize, record, process, or report
financial data reliably in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles such that there is more than a
remote likelihood that a misstatement of the entity's financial statements that is more than inconsequential will
not be prevented or detected by the entity's internal control."
SAS 112 further states that, "a material weakness is a significant deficiency, or combination of significant
deficiencies, that results in more than a remote likelihood that a material misstatement of the financial statements
will not be prevented or detected by the entity's internal control." Pursuant to the guidance provided in SAS 112,
we believe that the following deficiencies constitute material weaknesses:
Limited Segregation of Duties
Due to the Commission's limited number of office personnel, segregation of the accounting functions that is
necessary to ensure adequate internal accounting control may not be possible. This is not unusual in an operation
the size of the Commission; however, the Board of Commissioners should constantly be aware of this condition
and realize that the concentration of duties and responsibilities in a limited number of individuals is not desirable
from an accounting point of view. This area should be reviewed periodically and consideration given to
improving the segregation of duties. In making this review, it is most important to consider the benefit derived as
weighed against the cost of the improvements.
Management feels it is currently not economically feasible for the Commission to hire additional staff in order to
adequately segregate all incompatible duties. Therefore, the Board of Water Commissioners needs to be
sufficiently involved in the oversight process and controls and responsibilities should be reviewed periodically.

Material Audit Adjustments - Internal Control over the Financial Reporting Process
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls, including monitoring, and for the
fair presentation in the financial statements in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
Management is responsible for the accuracy and completeness of all financial records and related information.
Their responsibilities include adjusting the financial statements to correct material misstatements.
As part of the audit, we proposed the following journal entries:
• Adjust interest receivable to actual.
• Adjust amount due from the City.
• Reclassify money market funds from investments to cash.
• Adjust inventory, prepaid expense, and accounts receivable to actual.
• Adjust accrued wages, sick and vacation accruals, and longevity accruals to actual.
• Entry to amortize bond issue costs.
• Adjust special assessments to actual.
• Record capital contributions, depreciation expense, and capital asset activity.
• Reclassify deferred revenue from accounts receivable.
• Correct posting directly to net assets.
These entries relate to internal controls over the year-end close-out process. The absence of a complete control
procedure or process in this area is considered a material weakness because the potential exists that a material
misstatement of the financial statements could occur and not be prevented or detected by the Commission's
internal control processes.
Oversight of the Financial Reporting Process
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining internal controls and for the fair presentation of the
financial position, results of operations, cash flows, and disclosures in the financial statements, in conformity with
U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The Board of Water Commissioners does not have a
system of internal controls that would enable management to conclude the fmancial statements and related
disclosures are complete and presented in accordance with GAAP. As such, management requested us to prepare
a draft of the financial statements, including the related footnote disclosures. The outsourcing of these services is
not unusual in organizations of your size and is a result of management's cost benefit decision to rely on our
accounting expertise rather than incurring this internal resource cost.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT
Board of Water Commissioners
of the City of Stillwater
Stillwater, Minnesota
We have audited the accompanying financial statements of the Board of Water Commissioners, a
component unit of the City of Stillwater, as of and for the years ended December 31, 2007 and 2006, as
listed in the table of contents. These basic financial statements are the responsibility of the
Commission's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these basic financial
statements based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with U.S. generally accepted auditing standards. Those
standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the
financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis,
evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above, present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Board of Water Commissioners, a component unit of the City of Stillwater as of
December 31, 2007 and 2006, and the results of operations and its cash flows for the years then ended
in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
The management's discussion and analysis as listed in the table of contents is not a required part of the
basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by U.S. generally accepted
accounting standards. We have applied certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of
inquiries of management regarding the methods of measurement and presentation of the required
supplementary information. However, we did not audit the information and express no opinion on it.

significant additions in the Phase III Utilities project, Neal Ave, 1st and 2nd Editions of Millbrook. The
related additions consist of water mains, hydrants, valves and other apparatus.
Significant Transactions
Fiscal year 2007 was drier than normal and resulted in the pumping 845,879,000 gallons which is

Fiscal year 2007 operating revenue was higher than 2006 due to new development as well as an
increase in the gallons used overage rate. The Commission does not budget for capital contributions
but received $999,829 in contributed water main extensions from the City of Stillwater. Fiscal year 2007
operating expenses were lower than expected due to the fact that construction of well 12 was not
started.
Capital Asset and Long -Term Debt Activity
The Commission made capital asset additions to utility plant, property and equipment in the amounts of
$1,094,555 and $570,264 in fiscal years 2007 and 2006, respectively. Depreciation expense was
$374,336 and $355,222 in fiscal years 2007 and 2006, respectively.
The Commission did not issue any new Tong -term debt during fiscal years 2007 or 2006. Payments were
made in fiscal years 2007 or 2006 in the amount of $90,000 on the current portion of principal due on
existing Tong -term debt. All outstanding long-term debt is issued on behalf of the Commission by the
Stillwater City Council and is backed by a pledge of net revenues of the Commission.
Other Financial Information, Next Year's Budget and Rates
The Board of Water Commissioners continues the process of identifying a site and drilling a new well
which started in fiscal year 2006 and expected to be completed in 2009. Cost estimates could run as
high as $1,000,000 depending on extent of construction related to the well. A test well was drilled in
2008 and the results of the test pumping are not available at this time.

NOTES TO BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
DECEMBER 31, 2007 AND 2006
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Organization and Operation
The Board of Water Commissioners (the Commission) is a component unit of the City of
Stillwater, Minnesota, created and prescribed by the City Charter. The purpose of the
Commission is to account for the distribution of water services to the residents of the City.
The City Council appoints members of the Commission and maintains annual budgetary
controls over commission -delegated financial activities. The financial statements presented
here are also included in the basic financial statements of the City of Stillwater.
The accounting policies of the Board of Water Commissioners conform to U.S. generally
accepted accounting principles.
Financial Reporting Entity
The Commission's basic financial statements include all funds, departments, agencies,
boards, commissions, and other organizations over which Commission officials exercise
oversight responsibility.
Component units are legally separate entities for which the Commission (primary
government) is financially accountable, or for which the exclusion of the component unit
would render the financial statements of the Primary Government misleading. The criteria
used to determine if the Primary Govemment is financially accountable for a component unit
include whether or not the Primary Government appoints the voting majority of the potential
component unit's governing body, is able to impose its will on the potential component unit,
is in a relationship of financial benefit or burden with the potential component unit, or is
fiscally depended upon by the potential component unit.
Based on these criteria, there are no organizations considered to be component units of the
Commission.
Measurement Focus and Basis of Accounting
The accrual basis of accounting is used by the Commission. Under this method, revenues
are recorded when earned and expenses are recorded when the related fund liability is
incurred. The Commission applies only those applicable pronouncements of the Financial
Accounting Standards Board issued on or before November 30, 1989 in accounting and
reporting for its proprietary operations.
The financial statements of the Commission have been prepared in conformity with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP) as applied
to governmental units. The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) is the
accepted standard setting body for establishing governmental accounting and financials
reporting principles. The GASB has issued a codification of governmental accounting and
financial reporting standards. This codification and subsequent GASB pronouncements are
recognized as U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for state and local governments
that have implemented GASB Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements — and
Management's Discussion and Analysis — for State and Local Govemments. This financial
report has been prepared in conformity with GASB Statement No. 34.

DECEMBER 31, 2007 AND 2006
NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (CONTINUED)
Utility Plant, Property, and Equipment
Utility plant, property, and equipment are recorded at cost, or in the case of contributions, at
fair market value at the time received. Depreciation is calculated using the straight-line
method over the assets' estimated useful lives, ranging from five to fifty years.
Cash and Cash Equivalents
For the purposes of the Statement of Cash Flows, cash equivalents are defined as short-
term, highly liquid investments that are both:
A. Readily convertible to known amounts of cash, or
B. So near their maturity that they present insignificant risk of changes in value because
of changes in interest rates.
The Commission's policy considers cash equivalents to be those that meet the above criteria
and have original maturities of three months or Tess.
Cash and cash equivalents consist of checking and savings accounts and cash on hand.
Accounts Receivable
It is management's judgment that losses from uncollectible customer receivables, if any, will
be immaterial; therefore, no allowance for doubtful accounts is reflected in the financial
statements. All accounts receivable are uncollateralized.
Inventories
Inventory is stated at the lower of cost (first -in, first -out method) or market.
Net Assets
Net assets represent the difference between assets and liabilities in the financial statements.
Net assets invested in capital assets, net of related debt consists of capital assets, net of
accumulation depreciation, reduced by the outstanding balance of any Tong -term debt used
to build or acquire the capital assets. Net assets are reported as restricted in the financial
statement when there are limitations imposed on their use through external restrictions
imposed by creditors, grantors, laws or regulations of other governments.

NOTE 6 COMPENSATED ABSENCES
The Commission records a Tong -term liability for employee compensated absences
consisting of vested sick pay and a current liability consisting of vested vacation and
longevity. Employees earn vacation in arrears and may carry over five vacation days and one
hundred sick days. Longevity is a calculation based on the number of years of service and
the current rate of pay. It accrues monthly and is paid out on December 1 for the year ending
November 30 of the same year. Employees are compensated for sick days in excess of one
hundred days at year-end and for all vested sick days, vacation days, and longevity upon
termination.
As of December 31, 2007 and 2006, vested vacation pay benefits payable were $22,672 and
$21,619, respectively, and vested longevity pay benefits payable were $909 and $748,

NOTE 8 PENSION PLANS
PUBLIC EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT ASSOCIATION
Plan Description
All full-time and certain part-time employees of the Commission are covered by defined
benefit pension plans administered by the Public Employees Retirement Association of
Minnesota (PERA). PERA administers the Public Employees Retirement Fund (PERF) which
is a cost -sharing, multiple -employer retirement plan. This plan is established and
administered in accordance with Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 353 and 356.
PERF members belong to either the Coordinated Plan or the Basic Plan. Coordinated Plan
members are covered by Social Security and Basic Plan members are not. All new members
must participate in the Coordinated Plan.
PERA provides retirement benefits as well as disability benefits to members, and benefits to
survivors upon death of eligible members. Benefits are established by state statute, and vest
after three years of credited service. The defined retirement benefits are based on a
member's highest average salary for any five successive years of allowable service, age,
and years of credit at termination of service.

NOTE 8 PENSION PLAN (CONTINUED)
PUBLIC EMPLOYEES RETIREMENT ASSOCIATION (CONTINUED)
Plan Description (Continued)
Two methods are used to compute benefits for PERF's Coordinated and Basic Plan
members. The retiring member receives the higher of step -rate benefit accrual formula
(Method 1) or a level accrual formula (Method 2). Under Method 1, the annuity accrual rate
for a Basic Plan member is 2.2% of average salary for each of the first 10 years of service
and 2.7% for each remaining year. The annuity accrual rate for a Coordinated Plan member
is 1.2% of average salary for each of the first 10 years and 1.7% for each remaining year.
Under Method 2, the annuity accrual rate is 2.7% of average salary for Basic Plan members
and 1.7% for Coordinated Plan members for each year of service. For PERF members hired
prior to July 1, 1989 whose annuity is calculated using Method 1, a full annuity is available
when age plus years of service equal 90. Normal retirement age is 65 for Basic and
Coordinated members hired prior to July 1, 1989. Normal retirement age is the age for
unreduced Social Security benefits capped at 66 for Coordinated members hired on or after
July 1, 1989. A reduced retirement annuity is also available to eligible members seeking
early retirement.
There are different types of annuities available to members upon retirement. A single -life
annuity is a lifetime annuity that ceases upon the death of the retiree and no survivor annuity
is payable. There are also various types of joint and survivor annuity options available which
will be payable over joint lives. Members may also leave their contributions in the fund upon
termination of public service in order to qualify for a deferred annuity at retirement age.
Refunds of contributions are available at any time to members who leave public service, but
before retirement benefits begin.
The benefit provisions stated in the previous paragraphs of this section are current
provisions and apply to active plan participants. Vested, terminated employees who are
entitled to benefits but are not receiving them yet are bound by the provisions in effect at the
time they last terminated their public service.
PERA issues a publicly available financial report that includes financial statements and
required supplementary information for PERF. That report may be obtained on the internet at
www.mnpera.org, by writing to PERA at 60 Empire Drive #200, St. Paul, Minnesota 55103-
2088 or by calling (651) 296-7460 or 1-800-652-9026.

Funding Policy
Minnesota Statutes Chapter 353 sets the rates for employer and employee contributions.
These statutes are established and amended by the state legislature. The Commission
makes annual contributions to the pension plans equal to the amount required by state
statutes. PERF Basic Plan members and Coordinated Plan members are required to
contribute 9.10% and 5.75%, respectively, of their annual covered salary in 2007.
Contribution rates in the Coordinated Plan will increase in 2008 to 6.00%. The Commission
was required to contribute the following percentages of annual covered payroll: 11.78% for
Basic Plan PERF members, and 6.25% for Coordinated Plan PERF members. Employer
contribution rates for the Coordinated Plan will increase to 6.50%, effective January 1, 2008.
The Commission's contributions to the Public Employees Retirement Fund for the years
ending December 31, 2007, 2006, and 2005 were $20,688, $18,194, and $17,044,
respectively. The Commission's contributions were equal to the contractually required
contributions for each year as set by state statute.
NOTE 9 RISK MANAGEMENT
The Commission is exposed to various risks of loss related to torts; theft of, damage to, or
destruction of assets; error or omissions; injuries to employees or natural disasters for which
the Commission carries commercial insurance. There have been no significant reductions in
insurance coverage from the prior year. Settlement amounts have not exceeded insurance
coverage for the current year or the three prior years.

REPORT ON MINNESOTA LEGAL COMPLIANCE
Board of Water Commissioners
of the City of Stillwater
Stillwater, Minnesota
We have audited the financial statements of the Board of Water Commissioners, a component unit of
the City of Stillwater, as of and for the year ended December 31, 2007, and have issued our report
thereon dated March 28, 2008.
We conducted our audit in accordance with U.S. generally accepted auditing standards and the
provisions of the Minnesota Legal Compliance Audit Guide for Local Government, promulgated by the
State Auditor pursuant to Minnesota Statute 6.65. Accordingly, the audit included such tests of the
accounting records and such other accounting procedures as we considered necessary in the
circumstances.
The Minnesota Legal Compliance Audit Guide for Local Government covers seven main categories of
compliance to be tested: contracting and bidding, deposits and investments, conflicts of interest, public
indebtedness, claims and disbursements, miscellaneous provisions, and tax increment districts. Our
study included all of the listed categories, except tax increment districts since no tax increment districts
have been established by the Board of Water Commissioners.
The results of our tests indicate that, with respect to the items tested, the Board of Water
Commissioners complied with the material terms and conditions of the applicable legal royi`os.
This report is intended solely for the information and use of the members of the Board of Water
Commissioners, management and the office of the Minnesota State Auditor and is not intended to be
and should not be used by anyone other than these specified parties.

Memo
To: Mayor & City Council
From: Diane F. Ward, City Clerk
Date: 7/15/08
Subject: Meeting Dates
As a result of National Night Out and the Primary and General Elections the following
meetings will need to be rescheduled:
Tuesday, August 5, 2008 — National Night Out
As a result of discussions at the August 7, 2007 meeting, it was determined that
Council would like to attend "National Night Out" activities and passed a motion to
hold the 1st meeting in August on the 2na Tuesday in August 2008 (August 12t). I
would like to confirm that Council still wishes to have their meeting on August 12in or
choose a different date.
Tuesday, November 4, 2008 — General Election
November 4th is the General Election, it is suggested that the last Tuesday, October
28 be considered as your 1st meeting of November. The following Tuesday,
November 11 is Veterans Day and no public business can be conducted on a
national holiday.
Canvassing of Election Results
As a result of the Primary and General Elections, a special meeting must occur within
seven (7) days of the election as the Council is the Canvassing Board for the
municipal portion of the election. It is my suggestion that the canvassing board meet
on:
• Thursday, September 11 at 8:00 a.m. (if there is a Municipal Primary — I will
know by meeting time if there is a municipal primary)
• Thursday, November 6 at 8:00 a.m.
1
City Council Meeting — 07-17 August 7, 2007
meeting. The Council can meet on that date, but not between the hours of 6 and 8 p.m.
She asked that the Council consider changing the Nov. 6 meeting to either Oct. 30 or
Nov. 13.
Motion by Councilmember Nyberg, seconded by Councilmember Polehna to move the
November 6, 2007 meeting to Tuesday, October 30. It was noted Oct. 30 was the fifth
Tuesday of the month, so there would be a two -week break between meetings. All in
favor.
City Clerk Ward also asked if the Council wanted to change future first meetings in
August to another night so Councilmembers can be involved in National Night Out
events.
Motion by Councilmember Polehna, seconded by Councilmember Gag to hold the first
meeting in August on the second Tuesday in August, rather than the first Tuesday. All
in favor.
Public Works Director Sanders provided an update on the Eagle Ridge project, noting
that if the weather holds, curb and gutter and paving for the entire street should be
completed by the end of the second week in August and that sidewalk construction will
begin after that. Mr. Sanders stated MnDOT has a rehabilitation project planned for the
Highway 36 Bridge over Highway 95, which also has a low rating, to be completed yet
this summer. Mr. Sanders also pointed out that pruning of roots along the Long Lake
trail would encompass the entire trail, 6,000 feet, rather than 600 feet, as indicated in
the Consent Agenda item.
City Administrator Hansen asked if the Council wished to be involved in all requests for
street closures for small events or whether staff could exercise some discretion
regarding approvals. It was consensus to allow staff to use discretion for small events.
Mayor Harycki stated Jennifer Severson, Greater Stillwater Chamber of Commerce, had
inquired about the possibility of Stillwater hosting another car show in conjunction with
Summer Tuesdays. Councilmember Milbrandt suggested in future moving the car show
to another location to help promote other businesses as well as the downtown. The
consensus was to allow staff to review the proposal should the Chamber succeed in
arranging for another car show yet this summer.
CONSENT AGENDA*
Motion by Councilmember Gag, seconded by Councilmember Milbrandt to approve the
Consent Agenda with the correction to Item No. 9, root pruning of 6,000 feet, noted by Public
Works Director Sanders. Councilmember Polehna suggested that the request for the St. Croix
Harvest Festival should go before the Park Board, however due to the time involved, it was
agreed to approve the Harvest Festival request at this time, but indicated future requests
should go before the Park & Recreation Commission before coming to the Council.

Subject: Minnesota Sesquicentennial - Capital for a Day at the State Fair!
Auto forwarded by a Rule
Hello -
I'm with the Minnesota Sesquicentennial Commission and writing in regards to
the Capital for a Day program. Way back when, the Commission hosted a
contest looking for 5 cities to represent the 5 different natural regions in
Minnesota. Stillwater was voted the runner-up for the Deciduous Forest
region.
This year at the Minnesota State Fair, the Sesquicentennial Commission is
hosting 12 days of special sesquicentennial events. We are hoping to
include each of the 5 runner-up towns for the Capital for a Day program.
The state fair has a parade every afternoon and it would be great. if
Stillwater would join us in the parade on August 24th.
Also - in the Sesquicentennial Big Top Tent we would have a table available
for representatives from the city to hand out information and help promote
the town.
Again, it would be great if you could join us! The parade would be your
afternoon to really show off your town - anything goes, a school marching
band, pageant winners, classics cars...
Unfortunately, our timeline is growing short and in order to get each town
registered in the parade for the right day, I would need to hear back from
you soon. Please feel free to contact me on my cell phone (307-620-5980) or
by e-mail. I would be happy to provide additional information.
Thanks again and I look forward to hearing from you soon!

STILLWATER TOWN BOARD MEETING
Town Hall 7:00 P.M.
PRESENT: Chairperson David Johnson, Supervisors Jim Hiniker, Jim Doriott,
Sheila -Marie Untiedt, Clerk Pat Bantli, Deputy Clerk Kathy Schmoeckel,
Treasurer Carol Collins, Attorney Sam Edmunds, Engineer Paul Pearson
and Park Manager Rick Jacobson.
1. AGENDA - M/S/P Hiniker/Untiedt moved to adopt the agenda as amended.
(4 ayes)
2. MINUTES - M/S/P Hiniker/Doriott moved to approve the 6/12/08 Stillwater town
board meeting minutes as written. (4 ayes)
3. TREASURER -
a. Claims were reviewed and checks #18721 through #18729 were approved for
payment.
b. The IRS has increased the mileage allowance to 58.5 cents per mile.
M/S/P Untiedt/Hiniker moved that the standard mileage reimbursement for
Stillwater Township be the IRS rate. (4 ayes)
c. Escrows -
• Bruette CUP - The amount owing him is $243.50, but Treasurer Carol Collins
does not believe he paid an application fee. We initiated the review process
and therefore there would be no fee. We will pay him the balance.
• Bluffs of St. Croix (Axdahl) - There was discussion of the difference between
the $1,000 cash deposit and the $19,000 escrow. Paul Pearson explained
that the cash deposit was to cover any immediate expenditures that may
arise (such as erosion control) and the escrow is forTownship expenses in
the construction phase.
d. Crosswinds Community Church - The Crosswinds escrow was to remain at
$2,000. They paid the amount due according to the $2,000 escrow as they are
soon to be finished with the planning phase. This escrow will be closed out at
that time and a new escrow account will be started when the building phase
starts which is anticipated to be about 2 years.
e. City of Stillwater - We have received a check from them for the orderly
annexation. Carol Collins has requested a schedule from them.
f. Palmer/Lambert Vacation - Gloria Sell did not recall how the Lambert files were
mislabeled as Palmer and the correct total fees were not assigned to Lambert.
M/S/P Untiedt/Hiniker Board moved to write off the Palmer/Lambert amount
of $1,757.22. (4 ayes)
4. ATTORNEY -
Crosswinds CommunityChurch - The applicant was present. They had received a
final copy of the conditions of the CUP and they had a concern regarding item #16
on lighting which they regard as too burdensome. They have checked with other
churches in the area and they do not have such restrictions in lighting. Attorney
Sam Edmunds explained that the reason this was put in was an enforcement issue.
Stillwater Town Board Mtg. — 6/26/08 Page 2
M/S/P Untiedt/Doriott moved to revert to the original language regarding
item #16 (lighting) and the CUP should be for a "place of worship" rather than
specifically "Crosswinds Community Church". (4 ayes)
5. ENGINEER -
a. Otta Seal - With respect to snowplowing, Paul Pearson had checked with four
Counties and they responded that they treat the Otta Seal surface as a gravel
roadway. With respect to maintenance costs for patching the Counties said it
was minimal. The product should be applied to a very stable roadway. He was
told that road salt does not cause damage and they are not aware of risk to the
environment with this product. He had a map highlighting the Minnesota
counties where Otta Seal has been used and also specific maps of roads near
Cannon Falls and near Elba where this has been used. Apparently there are
no problems with typical traffic, but heavy construction traffic may be an issue.
There was discussion of trying this on a road with some traffic and where the
neighbors would be receptive, such as 90th Street in front of the Town Hall.
The Engineer would need to verify the gravel depths on the road.
M/S/P Hiniker/Doriott moved to put out for bid the Otta Sealing of 90th Street.
(4 ayes)
b. Raleigh's 2008 Maintenance Work - Paul Pearson had checked with Raleigh
about any extra work outside of the budget and is waiting to receive the
information.
c. Otchipwe Trail Warranty Work - They do not see any maintenance work
required. Midwest Asphalt Company has not been paid for the work they did.
There was discussion of providing the extra escrow funds on this development
to Midwest Asphalt even though there is no obligation to do so.
M/S/P Hiniker/Untiedt moved to release the escrow for Otchipwe Trails minus
township expenses to Midwest Asphalt. (4 ayes)
d. Slusher Mailbox - The Slushers have resided here since 1994 and erected their
mailbox in October of 1994. They had asked for the date that our snowplow
policy was initiated which was June 25, 1998. Attorney Sam Edmunds explained
that a basis to require them to remove their mailbox can be if it is within the
right of way. The Attorney will contact the Slushers to explain that our
recommendation is that they remove their mailbox because it is in the right of
way, but if they choose to leave it, they accept all liability and if it is damaged
by a snow plow, it will not be replaced by the township.
(Jim Hiniker left.)
e. Xcel Prolect - M/S/P Untiedt/Doriott moved to approve Xcel Project #252307.
(3 ayes)
6. VIKINGSTAD PROPERTY - Baiers Heeren was present to discuss Brad Orn's
purchase of this property. He had a packet with maps and deed of this property and
adjacent properties. They are looking for possible ways to make this a conforming lot.
They are waiting to hear from Dennis O'Donnell and will forward his response to Soren
Mattick. If they get the okay from Washington County, they should make application.

7. PARK COMMITTEE -
a. Jim Doriott, Paul Pearson and other agency representatives had looked at Little
Carnelian Park to determine the possibility of erecting a boundary. Boulders
were not feasible. We can put up a sign that says "Park Boundary" and the
neighbors can put up sign saying "No Trespassing."
b. Jim Doriott obtained 3 trees from Lowes which have been planted. He will try
to find more trees.
8. METRPOLITAN COUNCIL MEETING - Sheila -Marie Untiedt reported on the recent
meeting with Peter Bell of Metropolitan Council that she had attended.

that were not anticipated and also ask what their budget is for the year.

vacation? Carol Collins will check with Gloria Sell as to what her recollection

has been checking the surface to make sure it is fine and he felt it was in good
condition. He will report further at the end of the month.

ii) Brad and Becky Orns - They are interested in a building lot on North Twin Lake
and they are looking for direction. The lot is nonconforming for road access.
The County has taxed this as a buildable lot and has a tax identity number. His
driveway would need to be on a Township easement. Mr. Orns will check to see
what is the status of 92nd Street and look into the transfer of the adjacent
property in 2004.

i) Mayfield Culvert - A new culvert had been put in as an emergency action. They
need to check the elevations and get the okay from the regulatory agencies.

of the comparative maintenance costs. The Otta Seal is less costly than
Stillwater Town Board Meeting — 6/12/08 Page 3
gravel road maintenance and bituminous pavement. He cited some Counties
that have used this product. Other issues to consider are: How does snow
plowing affect it, public education, are there issues with the application, and
what about salting in the winter. He will do more investigation and report back
at the next meeting. There was discussion of targeting a township road to do
as a test this year.
iii) Manning Avenue Construction - Tower Asphalt has been awarded the bid.
