The MPCA is concerned that contaminants may be migrating away from the dump. I have enclosed an access agreement which would grant the MPCA staff authority to enter upon the fo:r:rner dump site to conduct soil borings and obtain soil samples. If you have concerns over the specific locations of soil borings, "We are willing to meet with you on the site to agree on acceptable locations. The MPCA requests that you review, sign, and return one copy of the access agreement. The other copy you may keep for your files.

The agreement is very similar to the agreements we have for the Community Development Director and the Public Safety Director. The benefits, as stated in Appendix A, are the same as those contained in the Fire Association Labor Agreement which Jim would like to retain. Perhaps the most important consideration for the Council is the language contained in Item #5(b). Th~s language basically provides for a return to his former position if the Assistant Chief position doesn't work - either for Jim or the City. The language would allow this at any time down the road. It is a guarantee that Jim would have a position within the department unless, of course, there was a termination due to a disciplinary action. I can discuss this with you further at the meeting on Wednesday, November 1, 1989. 4~ e EMPLOYMENT AGREEMENT This agreement made the _ day of , 19_ by and between the City of Stillwater, a municipal corporation organized and existing under the laws of the state of Minnesota, hereinafter called the EMPLOYER, and James Stevensen, in the County of Washington, state of Minnesota, hereinafter called the EMPLOYEE, witnesseth: 1.

PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT The EMPLOYER recognizes its obligation to the professional development of the ASSISTANT FIRE CHIEF and agrees that the EMPLOYEE shall be given adequate opportunities to develop his skills and abilities as an ASSISTANT FIRE CHIEF, and the EMPLOYEE agrees to participate in professional development activities provided such participation does not consume a disproportionate amount of time and contribute to a failure on the part of the EMPLOYEE to discharge his duties as determined by the Fire Chief.

Larry Buberl to increase salaries for part-time licensed patrol officers. Sgt. Buberl is requesting a $2.00 per hour wage increase. Presently, the part time officers are paid a wage rate as follows: o - 1 year 1 - 2 years After 2 years $7.00 per hour $8.00 per hour $8.84 per hour This wage amounts to about 60 percent of the full-time patrol officer wage rate. This pay relationship is not as favorable as the wage structure for part-time firefighters. The following is acornparison of the pay relationships between f~ll-time vs part-time patrol officers and full-time vs part-time firefighters: POLICE FIRE Full-time Part-time Full-time Part-time Start 11. 59 7.00 (60%) 9.16 *8.00 (87%) 6 mo. - 1 yr. 12.42 7.00 (56%) 9.45 8.00 (85%) 1 yr. - 2 yrs. 13.26 8.00 (60%) 10.40 8.00 (77%) 2 yrs. - 3 yrs. 14.90 8.84 (60%) 10.60 8.00 (75%) After 3 yrs. 16.55 8.84 (53%) 10.88 8.00 (74%) *Purnp Operator/Driver only. firefighters is: The salary schedule for all volunteer Firefighter Pump Operator/Driver Lieutenant Captain Asst. Chief $7.50/hr $8.00/hr $8.00jhr $8.50jhr $9.00/hr As you can see, the part-time firefighter salaries range from 7~percent to 87 percent of the full-time salaries. Whereas the part-time police salaries range from 53 percent to 60 percent of the full-time salaries. For discussion purposes, I am listing a salary schedule that is based on the step salary schedule of full-time patrol officers but also includes what the salaries would be based on differing pay relationships for 1990: e Full Time 60% 65% 70% 75% 80% start 12.05 7.25 7.85 8.45 9.00 9.65 6 mo. - 1 yr. 12.90 7.75 8.40 9.00 9.70 10.35 1 yr. - 2 yrs. 13.75 8.25 9.00 9.65 10.35 11. 00 2 yrs. - 3 yrs. 15.50 9.30 10.10 10.85 11.60 12.40 After 3 yrs. 17.20 10.30 11. 20 12.05 12.90 13.75 After considering several factors, the most important factor being your contention that: 1. The part-time officers perform a significant role in the patrol aspect of our police department; and 2. The present salary schedule is not attractive enough to attract and retain qualified personnel. e I would recommend that we ask the council to consider adopting a salary schedule that would pay part timers a salary that would be 70 percent of the salary schedule of the full timers. This appears to be an attractive schedule. Also note that the salaries do not, at any step, exceed the salaries of a beginning full-time patrol officer. For example, the three year part time salary under the 70 percent column is $12.05 per hour. The salary for a starting full-time officer would also be $12.05 per hour. I would further recommend that regardless of what percent schedule is adopted, that we try to maintain this schedule over time - but not to tie the salary directly to the full-time schedule because historically our contracts have been settled well into the contract year. This would create a retroactive pay situation. I would also recommend that we establish a salary differential for part-time sergeants. This differential should be about 10 percent above the part-time patrol officers salaries. If you concur with this proposal, I will bring it to the council for discussion at the meeting next Wednesday (November 1, 1989). Attachments " /)/~ j/U ,/~ m/. ~,..'--oeS t!t: S ,40<) //t d '"'- e 25 SEP 1989 TO: City Coordinator Nile Kriesel ~ THRU: Chief Of Police David Mawhorter SUBJECT: Request For Hourly Rate Increase As the senioL Part-Time police officer, I am requesting an hourly rate in- crease for all of our part-time officers. The reason are listed below: 1. Our part-time officers have not received a raise since since March 1987. That raise was minimal. 2. It is getting more and more dificult to attract licensed officers. Recent advertisments for qualified officers did not produce anywhere near the results previous advertising had. 3. Maintaining good officers is becoming more and more dificult: two of our six officers currently have applications pending at other departments, a third is out for an indefinate period due to a serious back injury. 4. Most shifts that require a part-time officer are either night or weekend shifts. By the nature of the work, many of these shifts must be filled on short notice. This requires the families involved to change their plans for only a modest compensation. e I believe that our part-time officers act in an ambitious and professional manner which results in favorable impressions toward the department and the City of Stillwater. Due to the minimal raise received in March of 1987 and the current manpower status of the part-time officers, I highly recomend that they receive a $2.00 per hour wage increase begining with the next pay period. This raise would bring us closer to the rates paid by other departments, and would help resolve the situations listed in 1-4 above. Respectfully Submitted: ~7c;/.~f Lart{ L. Buberl Sgt.

Scott Renne, MAl, Washington County Assessor -~ S ,.j< I From: Subject: 1990 Local Boards of Review e The Washington County Assessor's Office is currently establishing a schedule for 1990 Boards of Review. Most Boards will take two meetings, the primary meeting where property owners will express their concerns to the Board, and a reconvened meeting a week or so after the primary meeting, which will allow the assessors time to analyze the concerns and make a recommendation to the Local Board. The second meeting is generally when official actions are taken. By Law the second meeting must be within twenty days of the first meeting. In 1989 we would frequently have the second meeting prior to a regularly scheduled council meeting. If you want a specific date for your first and second Board of Review meetings, please contact our office. If we do not hear from you by November 9th, we will make a schedule based on last year's schedule and accommodating our office staff and local assessors. e The 1989 Legislature in both the regular and special session made several changes to the property tax system. We are currently develop1ng a presentation to outline these changes. I would like to meet with the city councils/township boards in a work session atmosphere to make a brief presentation covering: - a brief explanation of Minnesota's property tax system - changes made by the 1989 Legislature - changes made in the 1990 assessment for the jurisdiction - suggested procedure at 1990 Local Board of Review The presentation would last about fifteen minutes, excluding questions. If your council/board is interested, please call me to set up a convenient time. If you have any questions or need a copy of last year's Board of Review schedule, please call me at 779-5136 or Judy Ellis at 779-5465.

The event is on November 18, 1989, so they requested the banner to be hung approximately one week before the event or November 11. The banner will be removed on Nov. 20. The funds generated by this event are used for charitable purposes, so the $40.00 fee does not apply. They received permission to hang a banner last year and will abide by the usual rules.

Scheel Dlstrlet 5 e e e " MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and city Council ?~ FR: Diane Deblon, Finance Director DA: October 27, 1989 RE: 1990 BUDGET Background The 1990 Budget has basically been on "hold" status, awaiting the outcome of the Special Legislative Session. The results are now in, with the bottom line being a cut in LGA state aid to Stillwater in the amount of $361,581. This cut in state aid has been offset by a corresponding increase in the "overall levy limit" for the City. This cut in LGA to cities is being transferred to the school districts as additional state aid for education. The school districts increase in state aid is offset by a corresponding decrease in their levy limit. This increased city levy and decreased school district levy should have a net impact of -0- for individual property taxes. Analysis Attached is a comparison schedule of tax levies for the city for 1989 and 1990. As you can see from the schedule, the total increase in the city levy is projected at 16.5%. The largest dollar increase ($361,581) is due to the cut in LGA state aid. The second largest dollar increase is for the library budget ($101,324). The general operating fund dollar increase is at $27,014 and debt service levies have decreased by $18,713. Conclusion The state has set a deadline of November 15 for certification of proposed 1990 levies to the county. There are several other items that need to be addressed in conjunction with the 1990 budget. These are: capital outlay, parking fund budget and sewer fund budget. Revised capital outlay worksheets and revenue/expenditure worksheets will also be handed out at the November 1 workshop. Please bring your budget books.
