MN 55110-5108 612490-2000 800325-2055 October 6, 1992 RE: Stillwater, Minnesota City Engineer SEH File No: 92280 Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Stillwater 216 North Fourth Street Stillwater, MN 55082 Dear Mayor and Council Members: The supplier of the three pumps to be installed in the South Main Lift Station, Northwestern Power Equipment Co., Inc. of St. Paul, has requested an extension of time on their contract. The contract required pump delivery to the City of Stillwater in 60 days after the contractor received the shop drawings. The shop drawings were mailed from our office on August 13, 1992. The contractor should have received these shop drawings on August 14 or 15, 1992. This would mean that October 15 or 16 should be the completion date. As of Monday, October 5, the contractor informed the undersigned that the one 6" pump was to be shipped from Fairbanks Morse on October 9 and the two 8" pumps were to be shipped on October 16. Northwestern Equipment Co. said that we should allow at least one week beyond the shipping date for arrival. We should probably also allow a couple of days for delivery from their shop to the City. Since the completion date should have been October 16, 1992, the contractor is requesting a two week extension to October 30. Since the City Public Works Department and the Water Board personnel have just completed the bypass construction in preparation of installing these pumps, and we have not inventoried the existing valves and fittings to completely determine replacement requirements, I do not feel that a two week delay in receiving the pumps will delay the City's present schedule. Therefore, I would recommend that the City Council grant Northwestern Power Equipment Co. Inc. a two week extension on their contract with delivery of the pumps by October 30. We would be pleased to discuss this with you at the Council meeting. If you have an questions, please contact me. lJe~IY'. C(~,.;~- Richard E. Moore, P.E.

They have a walk-out with the backyard abutting a drainage pond and the southerly side abutting a wooded area. A second pond exists just to the north of the pond that the Baileys abut. They have indicated that when they first mov~d into the house, the sump pump never came on. In recent years, the pond elevation has apparently risen and water gets trapped in the wooded area. with the high pond and trapped water, the groundwater elevation rises to the point that the sump pump runs almost continually. The pump runs until the groundwater goes down which can take days. The city crews have been called on various occasions and have pumped the pond down. I had a survey crew take a few shots in the yard and the pond elevations. I also looked at the storm sewer base maps to see where the nearest storm sewer system was located and talked with city crews. The pond elevation of the southerly of the two ponds (the pond which abuts their property) is approximately the same elevation as Eagle Ridge Trail. The northerly of the ponds is 2 feet lower. The wooded area to the south of the house is slightly higher then the pond, but the elevation of the back yard restricts drainage. The yard rises as you head toward Eagle Ridge Trail and the area outside of the city limits to the southwest also continu~s to rise. Old contour maps of the area show the natural outlet to the southeast to an existing pond east of wildwood Lane. The construction of Oak Glen and wildwood Ponds Additions appears to have cut off this natural outlet. The sizing of the ponds was accomplished by others during the development of these two plats. Storm sewers exist on Eagle Ridge Trail approximately 620 feet to the north and 680 feet to the southeast. e SHORT ELL/OD' HENORICKSON INC ST PAUL, MINNESOTA CHIPPEWA FALLS, WISCONSIN ....~..... , Honorable Mayor and City Council city of stillwater April, 7, 1992 Page No. 2 e To provide an overflo~ outlet for this isolated drainage district, one of the two storm sl wer systems would need to be extended. Both of the systems appear 0 have the depth required to serve the area. The storm sewer could be installed behind the curb to save street repair costs. A roug estimate of construction costs would be: 1211 RCP storm Se Manhole Structur s Connect to Ex. cr Restoration (sod~ I , 800 7 1 650 LF EA EA SY 19.00jLF 800.00jEA 300.00jEA 2.00jSY $15,2CX) 5,600 300 1,300 i This estimate does ~ot include engineering and administrative costs. To provide a-~ore detailed cost estimate, the pond would need to be analyzed to determine the elevation required for the outlet anq more qetaileq surveys of the ponq, Eagle Riqge Trail anq the storm sewer systes would be required. There is a ground watet problem and the city crews such continue to work with the Bailey's by pumping as required. This is only a temporary solution. f the Council so directs, we can investigate the problem in greate detail and recommend a permanent solution. Attached is a copy of the storm sewer base map in the area showing the problem area. $22,4OJ e Sincerely: Barry C. Peters, P.E. Attachments BCP jbcp e '"", \ \ ~ -..... ~..... .............

CONTINUATION OF DISCUSSION OF LAND USE REGULATIONS WITH CHARTER COMMISSION The meeting was scheduled to continue discussion of the proposal by the Charter Commission for regulation of City owned land, with a possible referendum on November 3. e Mr. Kriesel presented comments relating to administration of the proposed land regulations which included the definition of "viewshed", "qualified" voter as opposed to "voter" and "natural undeveloped recreational use". Mr. Kriesel further commented on problems involved in implementing the development plan for the Aiple property, the requirement of a 4/5 vote of the Council for selling, leasing, etc, of Community Trust Land, the designation of Common Land if not used within five years and the impact the proposed Charter Amendment would have on the planning process and on short-term and long-term development plans for the City. Community Development Director Russell commented on the impact on the ability of the City Council to direct the future use of City owned land which in effect, freezes City ownership and land use for future generations without regard to changing conditions, attitudes an~ needs. It does not take into consideration existing City land use policy contained in the Comprehensive Plan and specific area plans. Mr. Russell also listed specific concerns regarding Article XVI as it relates to the designation of categories of land. Council requested more time be allowed for discussion of the proposed amendment and to delay rushing into a referendum on the November 3 ballot. Also, all Commissions should be contacted for their input into the discussions. - 1 Stillwater City Council Minutes September 9, 1992 Special Meeting e The Charter Commiss. on stated that Stillwater is a speci al pl ace with lands that should go through an additional process before they would be I sold. !

Scott Keller, Chair an of the Charter Commission, requested a few minutes to discuss the amou t of information received this afternoon with the Charter Commission. nd the meeting was recessed for ten minutes. It was reconvened at 5:45 r.M. The Charter Commisslion agreed that there are some areas of Article XVI, Regulation of City pwned Land, that could use additional study and input. They requested thatl if the Charter Commission agrees to delay putting it on the ballot on No~ember 3, that the Council will assure proper cooperation that the property in the first two categories would not be sold. Discussion f~llowed. Council stated that everyone of these properties would call for a public hearing before they could be sold. The two groups proceede to look for a compromise.

V/92-38 Planning Commission Meeting: August 10, 1992 Project Location: 1107 North Martha Street Comprehensive Plan District: Two Family Zoning District: RB Applicant1s Name: Helen M. Murtha Type of Application: Variance. PROJECT DESCRIPTION: A variance to the front yard setback requirements for a carport (thirty feet required, twenty four feet requested). DISCUSSION: The request is to secure a variance for a carport constructed without a building permit. The carport as it now stands is approximately twenty four feet from Martha Street. The location of the lot line has not been determined. However, even with an easement area as part of the setback area, a vari ance would still be needed. The appl icant does have a single car garage. The carport does not seem to be necessary for security or weather protection. It has a plastic roof with 1 att ice work and wood supports. It does not match in color or architectural features with the home. RECOMMENDATION: Denial. FINDINGS: The proposed variance is not necessary for the reasonable use of the property and driveway.

PLANNING APPLICATION REVIEW CASE NO. V/92-45 Planning Commission Meeting: September 14, 1992 Project Location: 402 South Main Street Zoning District: Central Business District, CBD. Applicant's Name: Sondra Gozzi Type of Application: Variance and Design Review PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Design Review and Variance for the placement of three (3) signs for a business in the rear of a structure at 402 South Main Street. DISCUSSION: The request is to place three (3) signs at the Vittorio's site for a business in the rear of the structure. The total square footage of all three signs will be 24.34 square feet. Two of the signs will face Main Street and one sign will face Nelson Street as shown on the site plan. The business is in the rear of the site so it may be difficult to find without the signage proposed. The Heritage Preservation Commission reviewed the proposal at their meeting of September 10, 1992. Another painted sign on a post was identified as an additional sign. This is located at the top of the Main Street stairs. It was asked to be removed as part of this proposal. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: 1. The temporary Ice Cream Float Banner on Main Street shall be removed. 2. No additional signage is allowed. 3. The white painted sign shall be removed.

DISCUSSION: The request is to construct an addition to an existing garage. The total for the structure with the addition will be 952 square feet which meets the total for accessory structures. The sideyard setback is 3 feet at the location of the present garage. The addition extends the garage south but the property e line extends at a southeast angle. The rearyard setback is 25 feet. he adjacent lots do not have structures near the proposed addition. RECOMMENDATION: Approval.

(North of Stillwater Country Club) Comprehensive Plan District: Residential Zoning District: RA, Single Family Residential Applicant1s Name: George and Kathleen Middleton Type of Application: Variance PROJECT DESCRIPTION: A Variance to front yard setback requirements for construction of a single family residence. DISCUSSION: The request before the Commission is to construct a single family residence on a 1.3 acre site located north of Poplar off the end of North Fourth Street (to find the site, go to the Northeast corner of Stillwater County Club - Poplar and Second Streets, then turn west. Go to Fourth, turn north to right, go to end of paved street). The site has irregular topography and is difficult to access. The building site proposed by the owner is only two feet away from the Fourth Street right-of-way but takes advantage of Fourth Street for road and driveway access. The site plan shows a paved driveway area in the street right-of-way in front of the garage. The driveway off of Fourth Street should be paved to reduce the possibility of erosion and for ease of maintenance. The site is un i que because of its topography, shape and 1 ack of improved access. RECOMMENDATION: Approval. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: 1. A drainage plan shall be submitted with the building permit for Community Development Director1s review. 2. The driveway off of Fourth Street shall be paved and maintained by the property owner. 3. A permit to use North Fourth Street for driveway access shall be obtained from the City before a building permit is issued. 4. The City Council shall review and approve an on-site septic permit before building permits are issued. PLANNING Cm1MISSION RECOt~MENDATION: Approval as conditioned. ,,.

Paul, MN 55125 - 612/738-7974 FAX 612/ 738-0698 September 3, 1992 City of stillwater Planning commission City Council I am writing to request Planning Commission and City Council approval on three issues necessary to clear the way for a building permit for a single family dwelling on lots 5 and 6, Block 46, Carli and Schulenburg's Addition to stillwater. The three issues are: 1.) Request for an on site septic system 2.) Permission to use a portion of vacant 4th Street right of way for driveway. 3.) Request zero front lot set back. Attached you will find copies of the Percolation Data Sheet, a plan showing the proposed septic tank and drain field, and a written analysis from Dale Eklin. e Our plan proposes ingress from 4th Street rather than the Schulenburg Park access road. To accomplish this, we will need city approval to use a portion of the vacant 4th Street right of way for a drive. Attached is a plan that reflects the proposed drive in relation to existing road bed and adjacent property lines. The site grade and elevations pose a difficult design challenge in terms of site access. The elevation drops sharply from 4th Street to the east. The optimum building location puts the front edge of the garage within two feet of the lot line. Asthetically this should not pose a community or neighborhood problem, since the existing bituminous road ends 42 feet from our proposed garage; the street is a dead end, and the two existing homes on the west side of the street encroach well within the 30 foot setback requirement. As part of this request, I also ask that we be allowed to remove an abandoned foundation that straddles my western property line, lying half on my property, and half on the 4th Street right of way (see attached plan).

Greeley Suite 102 Stillwater, MN Street 55082 March 25, 1991 Dear Norm, At your request, on March 24, 1991, soil borings and percolation tests were performed at the south ~ of Lot 2, Lots 4, 5 & 6, Carli and Schulenburgs Addition, Stillwater, Minnesota. Soil borings indicate that a three foot separation from the bottom of the drainfield trench to water table is possible. There was a percolation rate of 21 and 30 MPI. Due to the steep slope and wooded site, I am recommending the gravel-less leach bed pipe drainfield system. The 18" wide trenches will disturb less area and keep the erosion down. Cover should be established over the ~ drainfield trenches as soon as possible. Erosion control must be installed .., as soon as the system is completed. Erosion control netting could be used over the disturbed areas. See suggested literature. For a three bedroom home, a 1500 gallon septic tank will be needed. 1200 square feet of drainfield is recommended. The drainfield will consist of eight runs, 18" wide, 24" to 30" deep and approximately 50 feet long. The pipe diameter should be 10". See literature. If the home has more bedrooms, add 250 square feet of drainfield for each additional bedroom. In cases where homes are more than 3000 square feet, the drainfield and tank design may have to be increased in size. See the attached papers for suggested design and boring and percolation logs. DURING CONSTRUCTION IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP ALL TRAFFIC OFF OF THE DRAIN- FIELD AREA SO THE GROUND WILL NOT BECOME COMPACTED. YOU SHOULD FENCE OR FLAG OFF THE TESTED AREA BEFORE ANY EXCAVATION IS DONE ON THE SITE. Low flush toilets and restricted shower heads would cut your water usage down. If a water softener is installed, it can drain directly to the wetlands or a low spot on the lot as this contains no harmful chemicals and it is legal. These recommendations are a very good practice to follow on all septic systems, whether they be mounds or the conventional trench systems. If hot tubs or over sized bath tubs are used, it would be advisable to enlarge the drainfield. e continued......... M.P.CA. Certification #695 - Soil Tester - Site Evaluator - Inspector It is important to maintain your septic system by pumping the septic tank ~periodicallY. The size of the family will determine how often this has ..to be done. If the septic tank is not pumped when needed, sludge can build up and work over into the drainfield and cause the field to stop up. Never hook basement footing drains to your septic system. Always try to conserve on water use. During winter months it is also very important to keep all traffic off of the drainfield area; snowmobiles, skiing, sliding, etc. If snow becomes compacted it could cause your drainfield to freeze up. This report does not mean that you have a permit to install the job. Your local inspector will have to first approve the suggested design and logs. In some cases other agencies may require a permit. Your local authorities should be able to inform you of this. If I can be of any further assistance please feel free to call me.

SUP/92-49 Planning Commission Meeting: September 14, 1992 Project Location: 1709 South Greeley Street Comprehensive Plan District: Business Park Zoning District: Business Park Industrial, BP-I Applicant's Name: Michael Dvorak Type of Application: Special Use Permit PROJECT DESCRIPTION: Request to use existing 10,300 square foot building for gymnastics center. DISCUSSION: The request is to use an existing building for a gymnastic center. The building is located on the east side of Greeley Street at the intersection of Curve Crest Boulevard. The gymnastic center use is not listed as a permitted or specially permitted use so a use determination is necessary. The gymnastic use is a recreational service use. Business, professional, and medical office service uses are allowed in the Business Park Industrial District. A site plan shows the parking lot location. Spaces for 35 cars are shown. 35 spaces equals one space per 300 square feet of building area. This amount of parking should be adequate most of the time unless there are special events. The Parking Ordinance requires that commercial parking facilities shall be improved to certain standards; i.e. paved, drainage, landscape, curbing and lighted. The applicant is requesting that the lots be maintained in a temporary gravel condition for a period of 18 months (summer 1994). At that time they would be improved to City standards. Because of the parking location behind the building, lighting should be installed at this time to make the lots safe for pedestrians. No signs .are requested by the applicant. A wall sign with a maximum of 60 square feet is permitted for the building. RECOMMENDATION: Approval. CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL: 1. The following improvements shall be made before occupancy and use of the building as a gymnastics center. a. The weeds and volunteer vegetation around the building shall be removed. 1 b. The front yard between the building and Greeley Street shall be leveled and seeded or sodded. c. The miscellaneous wood and metal container to the rear of the building shall be removed. d.

The above! improvements shall be reviewed and approved by the Community Development Director before building use as a gymnastic! center. i. The temporary parking lot shall be marked to arrange the parking. 2. A wall sign of 6~ square feet maximum may be installed on the building. 3. By June 30, 1994, final site improvement shall be made to the site or this permit is v~id. Plans for the improvements shall be reviewed and approved by the ~ommunity Development Director before they are made.

Case No. V/92-38 - A Variance to the front yard setback requirements for a carport (30 feet required, 24 feet proposed) at 1107 North Martha Street in the RB, Two Family Residential District. Helen Murtha, owner, presented the request, which was continued from August 10 in order to get more accurate information.

Louwagie Assistant vice President JPL/amr '-' e October 1, 1992 The Honorable Wally Abrahamson 216 North 4th Street Stillwater City Hall Stillwater, MN 55082 Mayor Abrahamson and City Council Members: Finally! . . . After five (5) full years of operating in Stillwater the Minnesota Zephyr is ready to build the dream that was presented to the City Council back in 1987. The Stillwater Depot, Logging and Rail Museum will be located at 601 North Main and will serve as an exciting attraction to all guests of the St. Croix River Valley and also as a beautiful gateway to the city as guests enter from the north. However, we unfortunately have experienced many set backs and delays over the years such as: e 1. 2. 3. 4, Surveys of the property Appraisals from the City and from MINNDOT Legal ramifications Le. title clearance, etc. Washington County Conditional Use Permit; and because of all of the above, but mostly the Conditional Use Permit we were, 5. Unable to secure financing for the depot. In October of 1990 I met with the City Council and at that time agreed that all lease money paid for the use of the land would be deducted from the purchase price leaving a balance of $135,000 payable over 20 years at 10% interest. I assume that because of the difficulties beyond my control that all lease money since October 1990 plus monthly payments (from here on) will be subtracted from the balance until we receive the deed to the property and the contract is signed. I also request that the interest rate be reduced to the current rate. I have been placed on the City Council Agenda of Tuesday, October 6, 1992 to discuss this request and other areas of concern.

The plat consists of two cul-de-sacs with a total of 27 lots. The final plat is generally consistent with preliminary plats reviewed. The easement between Lots 1 and 2 of Block 3 will need to be increased to 10' each side of the property line to accommodate the storm sewer trunk that runs between these lots. A storm lateral is also proposed between Lots 7 and 8 of Block 3 so the easement should also be enlarged to 20'. The easement along the westerly line of Block 1 (all lots) should be increased to cover the drainage swale proposed to handle runoff from the school area. This larger drainage easement is required to prevent filling of the swale by homeowners. The attached plat shows these two easement requirements. The Grading and Erosion Control Plan is also consistent with previously reviewed plans. A portion of the runoff from the school presently flows southeasterly through Blocks 1 and 2 to the backyard of a new house which fronts on Pine Tree Trail. A shallow plastic sewer system was recently constructed to drain the backyard, as well as the construction of a small berm to redirect the water. Although the grading plan as prepared will substantially reduce the area contributing to runoff (graded to streets and picked up in storm sewers), some additional work should be included to redirect the runoff from the school. The proposed swale along the westerly line of Block 1 should be designed to pick up as much of the school runoff as possible so it can be directed to the existing holding pond, enhanced in Phase 2 construction. A small berm constructed along the easterly line of Block 2 would restrict runoff, from the Highlands Third Addition, from draining into the existing lots to the east under typical rainstorm. It would, however, trap water in the backyards of Block 2 and an outlet pipe would be required. Connection to the existing 12" SHORT ELLIOTT HENDRICKSON INC ST CLOUD, MN CHIPPEWA FALLS, WI MADISON, WI I e e e :& .. Mr. Steve Russell October 6,1992 Page 2 PVC in the backyard of the Pine Tree Trail house may be possible, but easements would be required. The attached grading plan shows the swale along Block 1 that should be enhanced to intercept more of the school runoff. The copy of your review indicated the 6' walkway that was required for connection to the school at the north line of Lot 1, Block 1. To provide safe pedestrian access to the walkway, the City should require that a sidewalk be constructed along the westerly curb of this northerly cul-de-sac. The overall Erosion Control Plan shows the location of silt fences. The plan as shown is adequate for restricting silt from running onto adjacent properties. The site should be seeded immediately following grading operations. We estimate the cost for the erosion control (silt fence, seeding and mulch) at $13,000. Sincerely, Fe- C ~ ~P-l- Barry C. Peters, P.E. BPC/cih e e e ~ MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor and city Council FR: Ann Pung-Terwedo, Planner DA: October 1, 1992 RE: BED AND BREAKFAST ORDINANCE REVIEW Background: As directed by the City Council, the Planning Commission and Subcommittee of Planning Commissioners, Preservation Commissioners and Bed and Breakfast owners have reviewed the Bed and Breakfast Ordinance. The goal of this review was to strengthen the ordinance based on issues some Bed and Breakfast owners had about the preservation of historic homes and the concerns of Stillwater residents about impacts of commercialization of our neighborhoods. The attached memo to the Planning Commission describes issues that the subcommittee discussed which lead to the amendments to the ordinance. The Planning Commission reviewed the amendment to the Bed and Breakfast Ordinance at their regular meeting of September 14, 1992. A few minor wording changes were made at that time. They have recommended its adoption as attached. Staff Recommendation: Approval for first reading of amendment to the Bed and Breakfast Ordinance. e e e r illwater ~ - - ~ ~ -r'\ THE BIRTHPLACE OF MINNESOTA J MEMO TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: PLANNING COMMISSION ANN TERWEDO SEPTEMBER 10, 1992 BED AND BREAKFAST ORDINANCE REVISION BACKGROUND: In July, a letter of concern was sent to the City Council in regards to the existing Bed and Breakfast Ordinance. Concerns dealt with preservation of our large, historic homes, number of guest rooms allowed in Bed and Breakfasts and the residential character of our neighborhoods. Other concerns included types of licenses and present inspections of Bed and Breakfasts. The City Council directed the Planning Commission to review the existing Ordinance for possible revision. The Planning Commission discussed the issue at their July 13, 1992 meeting. They felt that a subcommittee of Planning Commissioners, Heritage Preservation Commission members and Bed and Breakfast owners should go through the Ordinance in detail and come back with some specific recommendations as to changes in the existing Ordinance. DISCUSSION: The group met two times to discuss the Ordinance. The Galena, Illinois Ordinance was used as an example of possible changes which could be incorporated into the present Ordinace. The attached report describes the Ordinance changes and reason for the change. Two factors were brought out during discussions at the meetings which have also been the subject of special use permit public hearings on Bed and Breakfasts. The first is the preservation of large residential structures and appropriate adaptive reuse of such homes. The second is input of Bed and Breakfasts on the residential character of our neighborhoods. Since the Ordinance was drafted in 1988, seven Bed and Breakfasts permits have been issued. If this rate continues, the residential areas may eventually be impacted. The present Ordinance allows Bed and Breakfasts to be located in residential structures over 100 years old that is three blocks from another. This allowance is very broad and is not specific on types of structures. It has been determined that, by establishing a criteria for the size allowable for a Bed and Breakfast, it limits the structures to the larger homes either in need of restoration or are too large to typically maintain as a single family residence. Smaller homes should remain as single family dwellings. This will probably limit the number of Bed and Breakfasts which could be established and limits new Bed and Breakfasts to larger homes. . Ple4se review the attached proposed amendments to the Ordinance. I have included the existing Ordinance for your review. CITY HAll: 216 NORTH FOURTH STillWATER, MINNESOTA 55082 PHONE: 612-439-6121 ~ DESCRIPTION OF ~ AMENDMENTS TO BED AND BREAKFAST ORDINANCE DEFINITION: Bed and Breakfasts. A owner occupied locally designated historic residential structure used as a lodging establishment where a guest room or rooms are rented on a nightly basis and which only breakfast is included as part of the basic compensation. *CHANGE: Manager was deleted from definition. This will allow only owners/occupants of the property to operate the Bed and Breakfasts. PURPOSE: The City of Stillwater recognizes that Bed and Breakfasts are an asset to the community for the preservation of our large! historic homes. It is the intention of the City to limit Bed and Breakfast uses to those larger homes whereby a special use would benefit the City and surrounding area by allowing a appropriate adaptive reuse for such dwellings. Allowing Bed and Breakfasts is in recognition that the expense of owning and maintaining larger historic homes has made them less suitable for single-family dwellings. e It is the intent of the City of Stillwater to limit the number of Bed and Breakfasts in order to maintain the residential character of historic neighborhoods. ADDITION: A purpose is added to the ordinance. It defines the intent of the ordinance to preserving the larger! older homes while maintaining the residential areas of the community. The ordinance supports this purpose. CHANGES TO EXISTING ORDINANCE 3. Bed and Breakfast uses in residential areas shall be located at least nine hundred (900) feet apart (approximately three blocks). CHANGE: This defines the three block limit. 4. No liquor shall be sold on premises. If wine is served! a wine license must be obtained from the City of Stillwater. CHANGE: This requires that a wine license be obtained if wine is served. This is consistent with State law. 8. The maximum of five (5) Bed and Breakfast guest rooms may be established in a residential Bed and Breakfast structure. The following lot and structure size criteria determine the number of guest rooms allowed in a Bed and Breakfast. Maximum Number Number of Maximum Gross Minimum Zoning Guest Rooms Bedrooms House Size Not Lot Size Permitted Including Basement 1-2 3 2!500 - 2!999 10!000 ~ 3 4 3!000 - 3!499 10,000 4 5 3,500 - 4!999 15,000 5 6 5,000 up 20,000 r Overall house size is determined by using the total square footage of habitable living space within the structure. The number of originaf' bedrooms in the structure will dictate how many guest rooms will be allowed. i his shall be reviewed and determined by the Heritage Preservation Commissi, n. In the case of a family with children, the families bedroom use shall be defined before the number of permitted guest rooms are determined. ~ CHANGE: This section will limit the number of homes in the community which qualify as Bed and Br akfasts. It takes into consideration the size of structure and lot size. for determination of the number of rooms allowed. Also, the original number of bedrooms in the home will dictate how many guest rooms will be permitted. This is intended to preserve the original floor plan of the home so homes are not ajHered or stripped of their historic integrity. The Heritage Preservation Commission will review the original floor plan and restoration program. 11. A Bed and Breakfa t establishment shall show proof of City building, fire and planning inspec}ions, proof of operating licenses by Washington County and show shall s~bmit the State sales and use tax number for their business to the comtunity Development Department. CHANGE: Added to this section is planning inspections and submission of a State sales and use taxi number. This will tighten inspections on how the home 4It is bei ng used and/or restored as a Bed and Breakfast. It also makes sure that it is a legitimate busi~ess which pays taxes. I I , e 12. Restoration and/ r additions to a Bed and Breakfast shall meet the Secretary of Inte ior's Standards for Rehabilitation. This shall be reviewed and determ ned by the Heritage Preservation Commission. ADDITION: This is dded to make sure these structures are restored appropriately and that ny additions to the home are done with sensitivity. Preservation is the keylto this section. 13. All Bed and Breakfast Special Use Permits are reviewed annually in November by the Cqmmunity Development Department. A report shall be submitted to Planni~g Commission and City Council. ADDITION: This is adted to the ordinance so the City makes sure that all Bed and Breakfast uses are eing conducted according to the ordinance and other conditions of approval ,hich may be placed on that structure.

The study will build on the contexts development under an earlier CLG grant for a survey and National Register nomination of the downtown area. The study will expand on the earlier survey to identify additonal historic themes for the whole city. The project will be accomplished under the supervision of personnel meeting the Secretary of the Interior's Professional Qualifications Standards for history or architectural history, and will comply with relevant sections of the MN SHPO'S Guidelines for SHPO Architecture/Histor~ proiects of July 1991. The following information will be developed for each identified context: 1. Context definition, including a concise description of the contexts chronological, geographic, and conceptual boundaries (the description of each context's conceptual boundaries should be documented with foodnotes or endnotes); 2. Preliminary listing of property types (including information on expected locational patterns and current conditions); and 3. Preliminary identification and evaluation goals for the contexts.

VOGEL AND ASSOCIATES HISTORIANS, ARCHAEOLOGISTS, AND PRESERVATION PLANNERS 270 BRIMHALL STREET SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA 55105-2428 4 SEPTEMBER 1992 '" INTRODUCTION e This document represents a proposal for development of historic contexts for the City o~ Stillwater, Minnesota. The City has secured Certified Local Government (C~G) grant funds to finance development of a series of historic contexts as Paft of its overall comprehensive preservation planning process. The project is k:!xpected to be carried out between October 1992 and May 1993. In response I to a request for proposals (RFP) seeking a qualified historic preservation c~ntractor to serve as the City's consultant for this project, Robert C. V og~l & Associates proposes to perform the requested services and prepare t~e requested products as specified in the RFP. Vogel & Associa~es proposes to address the needs expressed by the City of Stillwater in the ~ by achieving the following objectives: (a) Continue t e comprehensive historic preservation planning process in the C ty of Stillwater; (b) Develop a comprehensive set of historic contexts applicable to the historic resources of the City; i (c) For each historic context, identify conceptual, chronological, and geographical bohndaries; develop identification and evaluation goals for the widest pbssible range of historical, architectural, and archaeological rksources; and prepare context-based recommendations regarding propjties which may be eligible for historic site designation; (d) Attend a nimum of three meetings with the Stillwater Heritage Preservation Commission to brief local officials on the proposed context outline, ~eliver an interim progress report, and present the final report; and I e (e) Prepare a report presenting the results of the study that is in compliance wit~ the specifications described in the RFP and guidelines issued by the Seretary of the Interior and the Minnesota Historical Society. Particular attent~on will be paid to the unique heritage of the Stillwater community and to maintaining a balance between history, architecture I history, and archaeoloty. The Stillwater area's historic focus on transportation, lumberfng, agriculture, and government, as well as its characteristic river to~n development and multi-ethnic cultural heritage, make this project close~y related to previous studies carried out by Vogel at Cottage Grove and Chfska, Minnesota, and Fort Madison, Lansing, and McGregor, Iowa. I I e 1 e Vogel & Associates will provide the City of Stillwater with high-quality consulting services delivered in a professional and cost-efficient manner. The present document represents the firm's commitment to the practice of providing the highest possible quality historical, archaeological, architectural history, and preservation planning services. Through the years, Vogel's interdisciplinary approach to local historic preservation planning has proven to be an efficient and effective way to provide cities with historic contexts that are detailed, reliable, and applicable to the widest possible range of historic properties. QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE Robert C. Vogel & Associates is a small multidisciplined firm of historians, archaeologists, architectural historians, and preservation planners serving clients throughout the United States since 1978. The majority of the firm's work is in the area of local government cultural resource management, including historical and archaeological resource surveys, comprehensive planning, and public education. The firm also specializes in basic historical research for largescale cultural resource investigations undertaken by the National Park Service, Army Corps of Engineers, the Minnesota Historical Society, and other government agencies. - Vogel & Associates' president, Robert C. Vogel (M.A., Minnesota), will serve as principal investigator for the Stillwater project. An historical geographer with more than 15 years professional experience in cultural resource management, Mr . Vogel is familiar with all areas of local government historic preservation. He meets the Secretary of the Interior's professional qualifications standards in history, archaeology, and architectural history and has successfully completed more than 100 survey and planning projects. He has also served continuously for the past decade as City Historic Preservation Officer in Cottage Grove, Minnesota, where he manages one of the country's most effective municipal heritage conservation programs and has demonstrated his commitment to local government's role in historic preservation. A copy of his vita is attached to this proposal. The principal investigator will be responsible for overall project management, including scheduling, meeting coordination, and assuring that all products meet the requirements specified by the City. Because of his thorough background and special skills, Mr. Vogel will be involved in all phases of the historic context research and will author the final report. SIMILAR PROJECT EXPERIENCE e Over the years, Robert C. Vogel and his associates have provided historic preservation services for a wide range of cultural resource management projects. The following paragraphs provide brief summaries of 2 selected projects we hive completed that are similar in scope to the Stillwater project. e Cottage Grove Cu1tur~1 Resources Survey i As City Historiq Preservation Officer since 1981, Robert Vogel has conducted historic cOIljtext research and published more than a dozen reports of intensive surveys dpcumenting historic buildings, structures, landscapes, and archaeological sites in the City of Cottage Grove (pop. 24,000). Interdisciplinary projefts conducted over a ten-year period included surveys of pre-1940 houses anq. farm buildings, archaeological surveys of undeveloped lands, g~morphology, vegetation and land use histories, surveys of historic lan~scapes, and publications intended for the general public. I i i Upper Mississippi Ri,er Context Surveys Under contract to the Rock Island District Army Corps of Engineers, Robert Vogel provide1 historical research, historic context overviews, and preservation plannin~ recommendations to major cultural resource investigations on the Upper Mississippi River in Navigation Pools 13, 14, 17, 18, and 21 in Iowa, nl~nois, and Missouri. Cottage Grove compthensive Plan As City Histori~ Preservation Officer, Robert Vogel developed and assembled the Cottag~ Grove Comprehensive Cultural Resource Management Plan, a ~OO-page policy manual and historic context overview which forms of the cer' terpiece of the City's nationally recognized historic preservation program Vogel also drafted the historic preservation element of the City's compreh~nsive land use plan, the first of its kind submitted to the Metropolitan Coupcil for approval. I Fort Madison compr~hensive Plan e Vogel & Assoc.ates developed a comprehensive historic preservation plan for the City of Fo t Madison, Iowa (pop. 14,000). The plan included goals and policies regardin planning, identification, evaluation, registration, and design review activiti[ s; recommendations for linking historic preservation with the community ~conomic development program; a revised historic preservation ordinan1e; and a staged implementation plan. I Allamakee, Clayton, ind Winneshiek County Historic Contexts Vogel was reta~ned as historical archaeologist to research and develop historic context ovelews of three northeast Iowa counties as part of the local I I e 3 e government preservation planning process. River towns included in these contexts include Lansing, McGregor, Guttenberg, Elkader, and Decorah. Lyon County Agriculture Historic Context Vogel was commissioned by the local preservation commission to conduct a survey of the historic farmsteads in this northwest Iowa county. The final products included historic contexts and farmstead inventory presented in the format of the National Register Multiple Property Documentation Form. Center City Historic Context Vogel recently completed an historic context document for this small (pop. 450) central Minnesota community. Contexts covered ten thousand years of human occupation of the Chis ago Lakes area and specifically addressed the town's Swedish heritage. Clermont Historic Context e Vogel & Associates was hired by the heritage preservation commission of Clermont, Iowa (pop. 650), to prepare a community historic context document in the format of the National Register multiple property form. Contexts included brick architecture, flour milling, and hydroelectric development. Architecture! Archaeology Surveys and Historic Contexts Over the years, Vogel and Stanley have provided historical, archaeological, and architectural history services for numerous large- and small-scale cultural resource surveys carried out under the authority of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act and Executive Order 11593. Major historic context and survey projects include surveys of the Highway 163 and U.S. 18/218 corridors in Iowa; historical geographical survey of the Pine Ford Lake Reservoir, Missouri; archaeological survey of lands affected by a flood control project at Chaska, Minnesota; and documentation of numerous residential and commercial buildings, railway stations, farmsteads, airway beacons, and bridges. SCOPE OF SERVICES This section of the proposal briefly discusses Vogel & Associates' conceptual approach to historic preservation and outlines the tasks associated with the development of historic contexts in the City of Stillwater. e 4 The conceptualliPproach to historic preservation utilized by Vogel & Associates is based upon three assumptions. The first premise is that effective local historic preservation is best accomplished through comprehensive planning. This concept holds that historic preservation is public policy that applies the conservation ethic to the delivery of public services. Comprehensive planning is a dynamic process that organizes preservation activities in a logical sequence and integrates preservation policies with other city activities (land us~ planning, zoning, parks, recreation, public works, etc.). The process also assur~s that survey work is carefully planned to meet the city's planning needs, ~ts legal obligations, and interests of its citizens, available funding, andl the nature of its historic resources. I e The second ass4mption is that historic contexts are the cornerstone of the preservation plan~ng process. Historic contexts are an especially useful historic resource man~gement tool because they facilitate survey and evaluation decisions $d provide a helpful means of organizing historical, architectural, and archaeological data. Context development includes compilation of historic;al data, evaluation of documentary sources, definition of local criteria for de~ermining significance of individual historic properties, and generation of property type classification systems. Thus, in addition to providing an organizational framework for survey data, historic contexts serve as a general syn~etic overview of local/regional history which constitute significant c ntributions to knowledge in their own right. They are also useful for public ducation and interpretation. The following list of tentative local historic contexts applicabl~ to the Stillwater area is derived from our work in Cott~ge Grove, Center City, and elsewhere and is, of course, subject to change as n~w local data are obtained: I Precontact Natite Americans (10,000 B.C.-1700s) ! Historic Dakota Indians and Initial European Contact (1650s-1820s) e Early Euro-Am1rican Settlement and Ethnic Diversity (1830s-1890s) ! S1. Croix Triangfe Lumbering (1830s-1890s) Town Planning land Development (1830s-1870s) River, Rail, and I Road Transportation (1850s-1910s) Late-19th Cen ry Agricultural Development/Milling (1850s-1910s) Development 0 Downtown Stillwater (1860s-1940s) e Late-19th Cen ry Industrial Development/Manufacturing (1850s- 1910s) 5 e Residential Neighborhood Development (1850s-1940s) Washington County and State Government (1840s-1900s) Mid-20th Century Urban Growth and Change (1940s-1970s) e Finally, we are committed to an interdisciplinary approach to historic context development. The advantage of the interdisciplinary approach is that it produces a comprehensive, inclusive reconstruction of the major themes in a community's history that reflects the contributions of diverse groups over long spans of time. When researching the historic context of any community, we make every effort to ensure that the full range of pqtential cultural resources are treated adequately. Too often, historic preserVation surveys are focused exclusively on architecture history: because most architectural landmarks were created by and for the economically and culturally elite, the heritage of common people goes largely unrecognized and is not preserved. Ignoring archaeology also places more than 10,000 years of local American Indian history as well as the formative years of Eura- American occupation beyond the scope of community historic preservation efforts. This imbalance can only be corrected through interdisciplinary research involving all of the relevant tools and concepts of the various preservation disciplines, including anthropology, history, geography, landscape architecture, and cultural ecology. The services we propose include development of local historic contexts, survey and documentation of historic properties, and preparation of a final report. Our proposal also includes some tasks not specified in the project scope of work outlined in the RFP. 1. Continue the comprehensive historic preservation planning process in the City of Stillwater. The comprehensive planning process organizes preservation activities in a logical sequence and integrates them with other City planning initiatives. We propose to use historic contexts and survey data to develop goals and priorities for the identification, evaluation, registration, and protection of historic properties. As part of its basic service package, Vogel & Associates will also develop a series of broad policy recommendations to assist City planners in the development of a management framework that will guide policy makers and staff in implementing previously stated preservation goals. e 2. Develop local historic contexts. This centerpiece of the project will consist of an intensive, systematic archival and literature search, including a careful examination of existing historic context information developed for preservation surveys in nearby communities. Research sources will include a wide range of primary and secondary source materials located in local and 6 regional depositories. !In addition to written documents, we will attempt to _. record relevant oral history and will seek out and study pertinent historic _ maps and photographs. This information will be assembled, critically evaluated, and organized by a professional staff well-versed in public history and local heritage conservation planning theory. The inventory generated by previous historic preservation survey will be a valuable planning aid for local government, as well as a useful promotional and educational tool. This project will build upoI\ previous historic context studies undertaken as part of reconnaissance surveYf of Stillwater and environs. 3. Develop histJrical, architectural, and landscape property types associated with historic contexts. Property types link the ideas contained in the historic contexts with actual historic properties documented in Stillwater. We will identify and define a wide range of property types, characterize their geographical and tem~oral distribution, and assess integrity problems. I I 4. Identify arch~eological property types associated with historic contexts and define potential historic archaeological sites. Although few archaeological surveys I of historic period (Le., post-seventeenth century) sites have been carried out ~n the Stillwater area, our experience in other, similar communities shows th~t hitherto unrecorded sites are almost certainly present and some of t~ese may be significant. Background knowledge of Stillwater strongly sug~ests that potential historic archaeological sites might e include mills, brickyarps, pioneer farmsteads, American Indian encampments, schools,1 railroad and steamboat sites, factories, shops, and dwellings. Because pr~historic Indian archaeological sites also represent a unique set of scarce, n4>n-renewable resources that possess cultural significance for citizens of all ethnic backgrounds, as well as scientific research value, our approach tollocal historic contexts and property types also includes prehistoric archaeologJt. The Lake 51. Croix area is in fact one of the oldest human occupied areaslin the region and is well known for the presence of ancient American Indi~ earthworks (Le., burial mounds) and other types of sites. Although relati'1ely few intact archaeological sites have been recorded within the ~till~ater cfty li~its, prehistoric cu1tur~ materials a:e k~o~ to be present m prIvate c~. llectlOns. Because of the time and fundmg lImIts imposed by the scope f work the goal of this phase of the project will be to identify general areas here these resources might be expected to occur. I 5. Develop con~ext-specific goals, information needs, and preservation planning recommend~tions. A prioritized set of goals will be developed to set a "best case" versioh of how properties should be identified, evaluated, registered, and treated I Some goals will address information needs which should be addressed b future research. Preservation planning recommendations will address property specific and program needs and will attempt to integrate th historic contexts within the City's existing cultural e resource management, framework. i 7 e 6. Develop a comprehensive, interdisciplinary strategy for future historic preservation surveys in the City with clearly defined goals, research questions, priorities, and cost estimates. Our final report will include recommendations for further historical, architecture history, and archaeological work as part of the comprehensive preservation planning process. These recommendations will be relevant to the City of Stillwater's planning needs and the relationships between local historic resources and statewide themes, and will include specific study questions, research strategies, and time and cost estimates for doing the work. 7. Attend and facilitate meetings with SHPO and City staff to discuss relevant aspects of project administration, including report scheduling, research design, time lines, and payment schedule. As the City's preservation consultant, we will establish and maintain a close working relationship with the heads of the appropriate state and municipal agencies. 8. Meet with the Heritage Preservation Commission a minimum of three times to present the proposed survey plan, an interim progress report" and present the final report. Vogel & Associates is committed to encouraging public participation in all phases of its historic preservation projects. e 9. Prepare such reports as required by the City. The end product of the survey will be a report serving both technical and informational needs. The inventory will contain an unequivocal statement of the significance of each property surveyed based on established evaluation criteria. Vogel & Associates guarantees that the assigned staff will be available to complete this project in a timely and professional manner, and that all project work will meet or exceed the standards for historic preservation established by the Secretary of the Interior and the Minnesota Historical Society. FINAL PRODUCTS e Final products delivered to the City of Stillwater will be a report designed to serve both technical and informational needs. This document will include an administrative summary, with a detailed discussion of the research design and methods. The bulk of the report will be given over to a fully documented historic context narrative, defining each study unit's historical theme, temporal and geographical boundaries, identification and evaluation goals, linkage to statewide historic contexts, and description of the full range of known and potential property types. The historic context narrative will be followed by preservation planning recommendations and suggestions for future survey work. 8 FEE tit The fee for ourj. ervices is five thousand dollars ($5,000) which represents Vogel & As ociates' best and final offer. We propose to bill the City monthly for actu I services provided. As is our practice, excess billable hours for services not jovered by the project budget will be donated to the City of Stillwater for u e as grant match. BUDGET SUMMARY Compensation f~r staff services is on an hourly basis in accordance with Vogel & AssociatFs' standard hourly fees, which include indirect expenses.

As stated previJusly, Robert C. Vogel will serve as principal investigator. He will ~e responsible for insuring completion of all phases of the project work. His ladministrative duties will include liaison with City and SHPO officials, particitation in meetings, supervising field survey work, making individual hisforic site recommendations, and writing all progress and final report docWl1\ents. He will also carry out the archival research for the historic contexts, I.rect the architectural history field survey, and develop the historic preservati n planning recommendations. Mr. Vogel meets the professional qualifica .ons standards in history, architecture history, and archaeology establishe by the U. S. Department of the Interior National Park Service. A copy of his vita is attached to this proposal. $5,000.00 e 9 e e e . In addition to these individuals, a research assistant and a cartographer / graphics specialist will be selected for this project. The research assistant will work under the direct supervision of the principal investigator and will be responsible for maintaining investigation records, photocopying, and collecting library materials. The cartographer/graphics specialist will be employed to prepare maps and photographs illustrating the report. If necessary, Vogel & Associates is prepared to provide additional architectural, archaeological, geomorphological, historical, and urban design expertise in the form of subconsultants. Vogel & Associates is prepared to begin work on this project immediately upon notification of award of the contract. Initial project work will include development of a research design and review of previous historic preservation work in Stillwater. In addition, we will meet with City officials and the SHPO to discuss procedures and scheduling. We estimate this start-up phase to be carried out over one month and have budgeted 10 hours of the principal investigator's time for these activities. Archival research and the development of historic contexts will commence upon notification of award of the contract and will be ongoing throughout the first six months. As data accumulate, tentative historic context study units will be formulated, added to, and elaborated as necessary. We plan to utilize the archival and library holdings of the University of Minnesota, the Minnesota Historical Society, and local repositories, and to assess the records available at the city and county offices. Throughout the project, 70 hours of Vogel's time has been allocated to historic context research and development. The 20 hours budgeted for the research assistant will also be utilized at this time. Assembly of the historic contexts and final report, which will have been evolving during the preceding five months, will begin early in March in order to meet the 15 May 1993 deadline for the final report. 30 hours of Vogel's time been budgeted for report writing. The cartographer's 30 hours will also be utilized at this time. The administrative time distribution for the principal investigator is designed to provide a concentration for planning and organization at the beginning of the project, time for meetings, consultations, and preparation of progress reports spread over the course of the survey, and a concentration of time for report preparation and presentation of the final products at the end of the project. A total of 15 hours of Vogel's time has been allocated for administration. 10 r tit e e .. DAVID T. MAGNUSON ATTORNEY AT LAW THE GRAND GARAGE & GALLERY 324 SOUTH MAIN STREET SUITE #260 P.O.

My son, Gregory F. Johnson, was driving my 1985 Toyota Camry en route on Myrtle Street from the Stillwater Library to my residence when the accident occurred. Gregory was east bound on Myrtle Street and in the intersection with 2nd Street when a car traveling south on 2nd Street entered the intersection striking our car on the left side near the rear wheel. Please see attached diagram and the attached traffic accident report (Local Case No. 92-7291) by Stillwater Police Officer, Sgt. Bruce Klosowsky, for details. As stated in the traffic accident report, the temporary stop sign erected on the North West corner was not located there at the time of the accident but was found on the South East corner of the intersection. The absence of the stop sign led the driver of car #2 to believe it was an open intersection and thus was ~ cause of the accident although my son had the right-of -way, was on a through-street and was driving at a speed of 15 to 20 mph. Immediately after the accident Gregory experienced headaches. He was examined by a medical doctor. Subsequent to the accident I filed a claim for 100 per cent of my car repair bill with Western National Insurance Group which is the insurer of car #2 in the accident report. I did not have collision coverage on myToyota (car #1). Western National's response was they would only pay 80 per cent based mainly on the fact that the temporary stop sign was not where it should have been. Because of this negligence, I am wrongfully burdened with a loss of $ 340.16 (20% of the tct::.l cost of towing and repair, $1,700.79). I had consultation with my attorney and he recommended I write a letter to the City of Stillwater requesting reimbursement for my loss because it is the City's responsibility that the stop sign is in its designated location and properly secured. It should be noted that this is the first claim I have entered against the City of Stillwater in the 25 years we have lived at the above address and I am doing it only because I believe I am justified in taking this action. Therefore, please accept this as my request for reimbursement from the City for the amount of $340.16 for my loss. Also, for your information I have enclosed a copy of the check for $1,360.16 which I received from Western Mutual Insurance Co. for the 80 per cent portion and a copy of the invoice for towing and repair from Jerry's Auto Detail & Frame, Inc.

CITYSE2.G03-56 e stillwater city council stillwater City Hall 216 North 4th street stillwater, MN 55082 September 27, 1992 TO: Mayor Abrahamson Members of the stillwater city council RE: TRANSIENT LODGING TAX EXEMPTION FOR THE LOWELL INN I have enclosed a copy of information sent to Nile Kriesel relative to a matter for which I will be seeking the support of the stillwater City council. Rather than continue local dialogue on this subject, I have now become convinced it would be in the public interest for the operating company of the Lowell Inn to be permanently excluded from the possibility of additional taxation from a transient "lodging tax." This will require an act by the Minnesota legislature for which City Council support is hereby requested. e In this manner, the conflict and controversey resulting from my steadfast opposition to further taxation of the Lowell Inn operations can be eliminated. The council likely knows of the increasing rancor of local citizens as a result of an awareness that the interests and welfare of established residents and businesses is subtly being subverted and their economic welfare disadvantaged in favor of the interests and welfare of and by new entrants to our community. This may now be a good time for public matters be proposed, decided and acted upon according to new priorities--some of which need to be dedicated to reducing, rather than enhancing or aggravating, the disconnection occurring between the residents and the downtown area and businesses as well as the growing disaffection between downtown businesses serving the same market. Your support in this matter is respectfully requested. Your innkeeper, tit Arthur V. Palmer Family Innkeeping Since 1930 CITYSE2.G02-57 September 29, 1992 Senator Gary W. Laidig 141 State Office Building st. Paul, MN RE: TRANSIENT LODGING TAX EXEMPTION FOR THE LOWELL INN Dear Senator Laidig, The Minnesota State ILegislature responded favorably in 1957 to my request to authoriz~ a special on-sale liquor license to the City of Stillwater specifically for the Lowell Inn. On-sale licenses were severely limitJd in those days. After several years of unsuccessful attemp~'s to purchase an on-sale liquor license, my only recourse was t go on the "offensive" and seek legislative relief which was pr mptly granted. The rest is history! By 1957, the Palmer~ had been innkeepers for nearly three decades. Such licensing was needed to meet the needs of changing times and to assist in boosting the economic prospects of the business so that continued oper~tion for another three decades might be possible. The Lowell Inn cocktail lounge and famed Matterhorn Room were the resul~ of that important 1957 act which has had such a long-term, benefi:ial impact upon our effort to sustain the Lowell Inn's reknow style of innkeeping. Moreover, the reconstruction of t ansient lodging facilities from 1970 to 1980 was funded by these I two new operations. The Lowell Inn woul4 not be what it is tOday--and may not have been able to surviv~ in the full-service country inn market (within which our business is now established and nationally recognized) without such legislation and resulting new revenues. i Now, after a total qf six decades of continuous, successful operation, I must nqw seek legislative assistance of a "defensive" nature. Therefore, II am requesting the preparation and submission of a special bill f r the purpose of exempting the Lowell Inn from any future possibil'ty of the City of Stillwater imposing a "lodging tax" upon ransient lodging establishments. Justification for such legislatio is enclosed along with an example of a proposed resolution to be requested from the City confirming their support of a Lowell Inn, Inc. exemption from MS 469.190. I Your assistance in this matter is hereby respectfully solicited. Sin~~ Arthur V. Palmer Family Innkeeping Since 1930 Enclosures: EXHIBI1S llA" and "B" LAIDIG.

The Lowell Inn is the only full-service, year around hotel operation in the City of stillwater. The Lowell Inn is the only transient lodging establishment in downtown Stillwater. 2. 3. The Lowell Inn real estate is the only transient lodging in the City of stillwater assessed for the downtown infrastucture/utility/street improvement project. The Lowell Inn has, (i) a transient lodging occupancy ratio decline over the past ten years from 66% to the present 50%, (ii) a present average daily rate of $138, (iii) average revenue per available room of $69, and (iv) excessive dependency upon a two-day weekend demand within the special occasion market subsegment. 4. 5. The economic viability of the Lowell Inn has recently been negatively affected by the increase in commercial hospitality as well as the psuedo commercial bed and breakfast lodging accommodations now growing by leaps and in the stillwater area--from the initial 21 rooms provided by the Lowell Inn--to over 160 rooms. 6. Public subsidies provided to the Lowell Inn are limited to $20,000 of tax increment financing (the public sector share of the 1991 joint parking lot improvement project between the Lowell Inn and the City of Stillwater. e 7. The consequences of this sudden and severe over-saturat- ion are multiple and have involved, over time, the erosion of the Lowell Inn lodging market share from 100% to less than 30%. Some erosion has been expected and even helpful in enabling the Lowell Inn to deviate from the civic duty of its early years to provide low-cost commercial lodging. Unfortunately, the low, operating cost commercial B&B operations are able to compete directly against the Lowell Inn's high, commercial tax and assessment operating costs, as a result of their ability to (i) use personal residences for business purposes, within the residential district of the city of Stillwater, and (ii) function as below-market, operating- cost, lodging establishments. 8. Adding to and complicating the economic life of the Lowell Inn is the high cost of the private ownership of downtown real estate and private parking. This is a result of escalating commercial real estate taxation rates, assessments for downtown improvements, and the $80,000 capital investment portion for the Lowell Inn's share of the cooperative parking improvement project with the City (80% private 20% public). B&B operations have a double tax advantage from their residential real estate tax rate being one-third the commercial tax rate plus 30% to 60% of market value (the first $72,000 being taxed at Homestead Rates. e . e EXHIBIT "B" NOW THEREFORE, the city council of the city of stillwattr does hereby resolve its consent and support for a specific statutory exemption for Lowell Inn, Inc., the operating company of the Lowell 1nnr whose offices and transient hotel lodging ope~ations are located in the three-story hotel building at 102 North Second street, stillwater qounty of Washington from MS 469.190. e e LAIDIG.G01- 244 n;1./' ~ ^ /()- J,.-q 1-- ~. .,:)g I jqqr{L e (ij.hJ f'\ I ~ -=-~'(j-Qb-~-LUuL-UL_- - rCl', 6u12J- 9D--=-"Jl,a-J4arLt-acd-~dL_lbrql7~~y) ~ID_~~UcaL_bt . , - ~\La.:bLr:l ~-LL--552).82 / .l~~--~~Ri~_n l-:~e-~~~~:~DO Qn !...- ~~= {o.Il.- --bi ll, 1.jL:t: -h-, i U fud' : c..o~~a..J-i~_O-nrJ o~a-_ _ '; I i . - /frrJ-.

The Land Transportation Committee of the Technical Advisory Committee met last Wednesday, September 30, to discuss the City of Stillwater twenty year urban boundary. e I was at the meeting to present the City's case for using the Comprehensive Plan planning boundary (Highway 96, County Road 15 and Highway 36) as the twenty year growth boundary for Stillwater. The Township had previously sent a letter to the Technical Advisory Committee asking for the boundary to be drawn as determined by the 1990 U.S. Census, which is consistent with the Township intent to preserve the rural character of the Township. (See attached letter.) After considering the letter from the City of Stillwater and Stillwater Township, the Metro Council staff recommended leaving the twenty year growth boundary at the existing City limits, Municipal Urban Service Area (MUSA) boundary. They felt that because there is a dispute between the City of Sti llwater and Stillwater Township, the dispute should be reconciled through the MUSA amendment process rather than by the Transportation Advisory Board. The Technical Advisory Committee of the Transportation Advisory Board will meet tomorrow (October 7, 1992) to consider the recommendation from the Land Transportation Committee. The Technical Advisory Committee will make a recommendation to the Transportation Advisory Board who will in turn make a recommendation to the Metropolitan Council. RECOMMENDATION: I recommend that the Ci ty present thi s case again to the Technical Advisory Committee at tomorrow's meeting.

Secondary (F.AS.) project 1~1 ated in an area tbat will now be included in the targer metropolitan boundary. Current FHW A ideUnes give the state nexibillty to transfer lunds into the new STP (Surface Transportation proj CU) flexible account. 'The committee concluded the best way to . address the issue was to aet ~surance from MnlDOT and FHW A that the affected projec:ta would .. be funded in thfJ manner ratfer than gerrymander the boundary. Each of the Metropolitan ~ea counties was notified and supplied with detailed maps showing the proposed boundaries. Communities and counties were aiven an opportunity to request chanics. In addition, the US Census r~ed its initial boundaries in the former small urban areas to be abaorbcd into the laracr met~politan boundary. Map l11bows tbe boundary entire lJevcn county metropolitan area. Addition,al maps show only those segments where the original US Census. defined boundary waa altcr~. : The following chanle! to th~ initial U. S. Census..defined boundariea, abown in attached maps where noted. wt:re: I U.s. CENSUS In la~ July, the lJS Census sent revJsed definitions of the initial . boun(iaries affecting four communities. Corcoran was eliminated was a smal~ urban area, and boundary refinements were made in East Bethel (Maf 2), Chasb (Map 3), and Shakopee (Map 4). ISTEA WORKING IncoLrate East Bethel, Chaska, Prior Lake, Shakopee, and Stillwater into GROUP laricr;rbanw:d area boromdary. i ANOKA COUNTY The boundary in Llno Lakes should be extended to include areas covered by t e Council's MUSA line, including the western shore of Marshan Lake .. and secondary area around the CSAH 14 interchange with 1-3SE (Map ... S). CARVER COUNTY The rormer small urban boundary ~ine in Laketown Township should be - deleted, and the bound,ary should extend along County Jtoad 147 (north/south) and approidmately existing 8TH 212 (easVWe&t) to encompass Chaska Township. The revised.c:ensus boundary excluded sfinificant industrial land uses from the original ~ou~daryJ therefore the committee did not accommodate the 1uly US CeriSus,4hanaes to the boundary (Map 3). DAKOTA COUNTY The boundary should extend along sm so in Farmington and include the area in Empire Township west of 5TH 3, south of 197th 5t . W, west of Biscayne Ave. and north of 210th St. W (Map 6). The boundary in Rosemount should also include the area north of csAtt 4% and west or Akron Avenue (~unty Road ?3) (Map ,7). , e . . The entire City of St. Bonifacius should be fn~1~~e;4.. (Map 8) (Hennepin county requested that COrcoran be eXamined f~~ populated areas contiguous with its east .and south borderS.' . Staff ~oUnd nothing warranting inclusion in the boundary at this time). .'. : . RAMSEY COUNTY Concurs with the urbanized area boundary as defined by the US Census. This boundary already excludes a portion of County Rd.I. where a PAS project is acheduled to be let in 1993.,.. " ' HENNEPIN COUNTY SCOTT COUNTY e W ASHINOTON COUNTY e Shakopee requests the southern boundary be extended to include the area of the city north of the Shakopee bypass and two other small areas included in the Shakopec comprehensive plan (Map 4); This request was modified to accommodate the revised census definition of the boundary. The boundary in Prior Lake should be that bou~ded by CSAH 17 on the west; TH 13, 170th St. and 170th 5t; extended on ~1ic south; and CSAH 27 on the east (Map 9). : ,... ':1.1 ' . · . .t"," ':.1, ~..t~' .;"; .: Woodbury requested tbat tbe boundary be dr~Wrtalong Dale Rd. between Tower Drive and Mile Drive and that the eastern boundarY be moved to St. Johns Drive, as extended, from CSAH 18 to t.94. with the southern boundary of the extension to follow CsAH 18 (Map 10)., ", An area of dispute exists with regard to the boundsry.in t~e vicinity of , Stfllwater (Map 11). Under the former highwaY' fundlni program, Stillwater was designated as a small urban area and defined Its west and north boundaries at Manning Ave. and T.H. 96.', This boundary coincided with the City's area of expected development as. defined in its comprehensive plan. Stillwater Township, In response to initial comments on boundary location, asked that the bo.undal)' be drawn as determined by the 1990 US Census. which is consistent with itS lntent to preserve the rural character of the township as contemplated in t~~ ,toWnShip', comprehensive land use plan. Furthermore. thIS boUndary Is more consistent with the current MetropolItan, Urban Service Arca boundary for Stillwater. ' ':; . .... ..:7~~: ~_.u_ }'; 4. The City or Stillwater. appearing at the September 2 TAC meeting and _ subsequently at the September 30 Land Transportation Committee meetinJ, requested the former Stlllwatcr FAU boundary be used which would, ret1ect ill comprehensive plan and would accommodate the expected growth being forecast by the Metropolitan Council tor the City. The Council. in its 1981 approval at the Stillwater comprehcnsive plan, noted that t~e City of Stillwater needed to work out questions regard1ni anne:.~ion with its affected neighbors before such growth could be acconrodatcd. The TAC Land Transportation Committee is recommending in this case tbat thc western and northern boundaries in the vicinity of Stillwater be drawn to coincide with the boundary as sbown in Map II, which reflects the q>uncirs M17SA. The committee acknowlediel that new long-range forec*ts will require reconsideration of tbe MUSA in Stillwater and other areas. I Local communities including Stillwater should first work to establish proper 20-year growth boundaries beCore requesting amendments to the transportadon fundini boundary. The Stillwater boundary should therefore be reoonsidered in the future in the =vent that the urban service area for StUlw*ter is extended. ' lAND In revieWina the proposed change to the Stillwater arca, tbe TRANSPORTATION committee concluded that Oak Park Heights and Bayport, since COMMlTI'EE they ~but Stillwater and are heavily developed, .hould also be . , inclu~ed in the urbanized area.

I understand and appreciate the fact that neither Washington County nor the MetroPolitan Council have influence in the delineation or the boundary that was based upon 1990 census data, However, the intention of the Stillwatev Townshi~ Comprehensive Plen is to maintain the area west of Stillwater, bounded by County Road 15 t as a. rural use area. As di3cussed during the meeting, there appears to be no substantial economiC or planning advantages to acqUiescing to the urbanized area boundary as delineated by the 1990 census data. The items articulated aB being possible advantages involve higher road speeds, roadway clas8itication change5, outdoor advertising and ~oadway improvement fundini. None or these items ae discussed, including funding, accrue advantages to the Townehip. As a result, it would appear that accepting the urbanized area boundary as delineated by 1990 census data may be of ireater potential long"term detriment, with no apparent advantage or future benefit to Stillwater Township. As I mentioned during the course of the meeting, with the recently annexed area in Oak Park Heights and the site or the new Stillwater High School, perhaps the urbanized area line should include those portions of the Stillwater/Oak Park Heights communities. rather th~ Stillwater Township. e At the conclusion of our meeting. it was agreed that letters would be provided to Washington County as the central agency responding to the Metropolitan Council Transpo~tat1on Advisory Committee, ~..

We feel that the ordinance establishing the Parks and Recreation Board empowers us to make decisions regarding who should be issued permits to sell in the parks. Past actions of the City Council indicate to us that we do not have this control. We therefore are asking for clarification of this issue. We would like to continue to be involved in deciding what vendors should be issued permits and our goal is to control the number of vendors in the park. We will track their cooperation and compliance with City regulations and will issue permits based on their performance in previous years. If, however, you determine that we do not have the authority to make these decisions, or if our decisions are not enforced, then we would like to be left out of the process altogether. We will then be able to turn our attentions to other business. We will be awaiting your response so that this issue can finally be resolved. n ohlers C airman Parks and Recreation Board r . e MINUTES STILLWATER PARKS AND RECREATION BOARD MEETING September 22, 1992 MEMBERS PRESENT: Wayne Wohlers, Jim Gannon, Alan Liehr, Rob McGarry, Ken Meister, and Mike polehna MEMBERS ABSENT: Douglas Hartman, Steve Joyce, David Junker, Tom Lillesve, and Roberta Opheim ALSO PRESENT: Tim Thomsen Chairman Wohlers called the meeting to order at 7:10 p.m. APPROVAL OF MINUTES Motion by R.

OLD BUSINESS No old business. ~ MCKUSICK LAKE WALKWAY Kim Gifford attended the meeting to discuss her concerns with the McKusick Lake Walkway. She recently purchased a lot on LeCuyer Drive and is concerned that the walkway will create a problem for her with people crossing her property. Wayne Wohlers stated that plans are for a 400 foot boardwalk to be built over the water, and in that case, the walkway will not affect her property at all. The Board was unable to determine from a map where the walkway would be in relation to her property. Wayne stated that he is willing to go to the property to help determine if the walkway will cause a problem for her. Kim will contact City Coordinator Nile Kriesel to set up a time for the three to look at the property. LILY LAKE BEACH REPORT Bob Bielenberg was absent. no problems this year. complaints.

He then requested $4,000 for a picnic area alongside the beach, but this also was not approved. Ken Meister asked if the Board could help in the budgeting process by writin~' letters to the City Council citing items of concern. Wayne st ted that this would have to be done at the April or May meeting as the Council finalizes the budget in september. ! , Tim reported on the Capital outlay items which were approved for this year: Resurf~cing of the tennis and basketball courts; a new storage buil~ing; lights for Ramsey-Grove rink; new plexiglass for arena; remodeling of player's boxes; paint outside of arena; and resurfacing Lily Lake and Northland parking lots.

We hope to educate the candidates and thereby achieve more understanding by them of these important issues as well as garner their support once elected. To that end, AMM staff has developed position papers on the Local Government Trust Fund dedicated two cent sales tax, Local Government Aid (LGA) and Homestead Credit Aid (HACA), Transportation Funding, and Metropolitan Governance. Each position discussion is followed by a couple of generic questions. The AMM would like you to use these papers within your community to educate and elicit responses from your legislative candidates. You are encouraged to use your own questions based on your own circumstances as impacted by the issues or use those provided. But please attempt to get your candidates on record supporting the AMM position, if possible. Finally, if you do get responses, either written or verbal from various candidates, the AMM staff would appreciate having that information for their records, even if it is of a non-supportive nature. Please contact Nicole, Roger or Vern at 490-3301 if you have any questions. To pass on results of your efforts we would appreciate hard copy by mail or Fax at 490-0072. Thank you. , /(\o.} St.? 2. \3 \::1'"'" 3490 lexington avenue north, st. paul, minnesota 55126 (612) 490-3301 A. LOCAL GOVERNMENT TRUST FUND e For the past 3 or 4 years, Local Government Aid (LGA) has been under fire by either the Legislature or the Governor. cities up to this year have lost a significant amount of LGA plus some Homestead and Agricultural Credit Aid (HACA) in those cities not receiving LGA. Current LGA is $279 million, down from around $400 million 1989. The total of all aids for cities in 1992 including LGA, equalization aid, disparity reduction aid and HACA is $486.2 million or about 45% of the 1992 city revenue base (ie, general operating budget plus bonded debt). Minnesota is one of the few states that does not allow cities the option of a second source of tax revenue to augment property tax for local services. Minnesota has chosen to restrict cities to about 16% of the overall property tax revenue plus state aid derived from sales tax. Analysis of Federal census bureau and Minnesota state auditor data shows cities in Minnesota as a group spend at about the national average per capita rate. This suggests that Minnesota cities as part of the snow belt are fairly frugal and have at hand, counting levy plus aid, about the right amount of total revenue resources. The Governor, in the April 29, 1992, Fargo Forum was quoted as saying that Minnesota cities should not receive state aid and that he will continue his fight to eliminate those aids. However, he did not indicate a replacement source but implied that spending should be reduced. LGA equals 30% of all city spending. e Finally, it appears that the administration and many legislators either do not understand the importance of services provided by cities or do not care. It is hard to compare education or needy single parent families to pot holes but cities are much more than pot holes. cities provide first line public safety; police, fire, ambulance, and emergency medical assistance. cities repair streets and plow snow. cities provide water and sewer. cities provide parks, recreation, and open space. Although not essential, these services are very important in a state that supports one of the largest per capita state parks system in the nation. without good ci ty services, the other governmental agencies might have difficulty operating. The Local Government Trust Fund (LGTF) initiated in 1991 and supported in 1992 provided a strong framework to protect the 2 cents sales tax, 1.5 levied by the state and .5 levied by local government, for city jcounty property tax relief. Al though revenue dedication is disliked by most legislators, the fact that part of the LGTF was locally initiated and that raiding the trust fund would be looked at as breaking a promise for property tax relief, helped enormously to keep LGA from being cut in 1992 and 1993. Therefore: THE AMM STRONGLY SUPPORTS THE CONTINUATION OF THE LOCAL GOVERNMENT e -1- . , . . TRUST FUND AS A DEDICATED CITY/COUNTY PROPERTY TAX RELIEF PROGRAM FUNDED BY TWO CENTS OF THE SALES TAX. e IF DEDICATION CANNOT BE ACCOMPLISHED STATUTORILY THEN THE AMM WOULD SUPPORT A CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT. QUESTION 1: DO YOU SUPPORT THE DEDICATION OF 1.5 PLUS .5 CENTS SALES TAX TO THE LGTF FOR CITY/COUNTY PROPERTY TAX RELIEF? QUESTION 2: WOUU> YOU SUPPORT A CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT TO GU~EE THIS RELIEF FOR THE PEOPLE? i B. LGA/HACA - SALES TAX Included withini the LGTF are the two major city property tax relief programs pf HACA and LGA. As a replacement for Homestead Credit the HACA ~oney was off limits this last session politically since no one, governor nor legislators,. wanted to be branded as 'doing away' with Homestead Credit. However, except for the LGTF connection, LGA has no such protection. HACA basically provides property tax relief across the board to local units to compensate for lower class rates on primarily homestead property. LGA on the other hand has traditionally been used to correct inequities in tax rates, ove~burden needs, lack of property wealth, etc. Although the ove~all distribution of HACA and LGA can be argued as ~ to appropriatnes~ and/or equality the need for this or an equal _ amount of revenu~ to augment the property tax is essential. I I THE AMM STRONGLY ISUPPORTS A CONTINUED PROGRAM WITH GROWTH OF HACA AND LGA TO AUGMEwr THE PROPERTY TAX REVENUE FOR CITY SERVICES AND TO HELP PROVIDE A! BASIC LEVEL FOR BASIC SERVICES WHERE NEEDED. USE OF SALES SALES TAX AND QUESTION 3: T~ REVENUE IS CONSISTENT WITH THE INITIATION OF LG PROGRAMS IN THE LATE 1960'S. YOU SUPPORT CONTINUATION OF THE HACA AND LGA PROGRAMS WITH REASONABLE GROWTH FOR CITIES? QUESTION 4: oq YOU SUPPORT USE OF SALES TAX DISTRIBUTED TO ALL C1TIES TO HELP AUGMENT THE PROPERTY TAX? -2- e ~ ..> C. TRANSPORTATION FUNDING e The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MNDOT) released a five year (1992-1996) highways building program that is estimated to cost $400.0 million annually. In addition to the highway program, MNDOT, through the state general fund provides $40.0 million annually in transit subsidies. Both highway and transit funding levels are well below recommended levels. The Transportation study Board suggested a $800.0 million annual highway construction program while annual needs for the transit subsidy exceed $50.0 million. The existing transit subsidy program does not address total transit needs. The current program is for operating subsidies and there are little or no funds for transit development, construction or expansion. The use of the highway user fund proceeds is governed by the state constitution which limits expenditures to highways. Transit cannot be assisted with highway user fund proceeds. - The primary state funding source for transit has been the general fund and the motor vehicle excise tax (MVET). In recent years the MVET, however, has been used primarily for the state general fund. To continue the highway program and meet the growing transit needs, additional funding is required. In 1992, the Senate passed legislation that included a $.05 gasoline tax ($22.0 million/.01 cent) and a sales tax on auto repair services. The gas tax would raise $110.0 million annually and will be used for highways while the services tax will generate $60.0 million and be used for transi t. The Governor also proposed a highway-transit package. His package would raise $66.0 million for highways (.03 gas tax) and $54.0 million for transit. The transit funds would be obtained from a 2% sales tax on gasoline. The House, however, did not pass a transportation funding program. Transportation funding will be a major 1993 legislative issue. MNDOT is in the process of preparing a 1993 funding recommendation that not only continues the construction program but also supports transit and provides the local match for the federal highway demonstration proj ect. Interest groups such as the Minnesota Transportation Alliance (MTA) are also developing proposals. The MTA is advocating the continued use of MVET for transportation while a similar position is supported by the Association of Minnesota Counties. For the 1993 Session, several funding options will be reviewed. Among them are: 1. broadening the highway user fund to permit transit funding and or to alter current funding distributions. The highway user fund currently distributes 62% of available funds to the state highway system, 29% to county highways and 9% to city highways. e -3- " 4 ) All cities having a population of 5,000 or more receive .. funds for their municipal state aid (MSA) streets. .. Approximately 70% of the city MSA funds are distributed to metropolitan cities whereas less than 20% of the county CSA funds go to metro counties. An option would be to reduce the distribution to one or more of the recipients and dedicate the available portion to transit. other possible options are to broaden the eligible use of the ,user fund to transit but only fund transit from a portion of the proceeds of any new fax adopted in 1993 and subsequent years. constitutiohally dedicate the motor vehicle excise tax (MVET) for ~ighways and transit. 2. 3. implement new revenue resources not governed by the highway user fund for transit. Such taxes include but are not I imi ted to i a sales tax on gasol ine or a tax on motor vehicle rep~irs (service tax). I THE AMM SUPPORTS ~ COMBINED STRATEGY OF GAS TAX INCREASES TO KEEP PACE WITH HIGHW Y MAINTENANCE AND CONSTRUCTION NEEDS AND A DEDICATED MVET OR. OTHER TAX SOURCE FOR TRANSIT FUNDING EXPANSION. IF THE LEGISLATURE CANNOT ASSURE STATUTORY DEDICATION OF SOME FUNDING MECHANI~M, THEN A CONSTITUTIONAL SOLUTION SHOULD BE IMPLEMENTED. I~I ADDITION THE AMM WOULD SUPPORT AN ADDITIONAL PAYROLL, SALES, qR TRANSPORTATION RELATED TAX IN THE METRO AREA FOR UNIQUE AND ADDITIONAL TRANSPORTATION NEEDS. e QUESTION 5: DO ,YOU SUPPORT A STATEWIDE INCREASED TAX OR USE OF MVlT FOR TRANSIT? WO~LD YOU SUPPORT PERMANENT DEDICATION, EVEN COfNSTITUTIONAL DEDICATION TO ENSURE ITS AVAILABILITY? i I , QUESTION 6: -4- e "It. or D. METROPOLITAN GOVERNANCE e The Metropolitan Council is at a crossroads after 25 years of providing planning and development guidance to the seven-county region. Some critics say the council is too intrusive in the affairs of local units of government, others that it is too aloof in its handling of regional affairs. The diversity and political fragmentation in the metropolitan area result in the need for a regional service delivery system to provide specific services or portions of services in the most efficient and effective way possible to meet the needs of the residents. This diversity also means planning on a metropolitan basis must be done in cooperation with local government. The primary purpose of a metropolitan system of governance -- such as the Metropolitan Council and its Agencies -- should be to facilitate the coordinated planning and development of the .metropolitan area. Such a system also should provide region wide services when they are beyond the capabilities of local units of . government to provide either singly or jointly, as long as the service isn't duplicated by a local unit of government. Finally, metropolitan governance should provide. region wide planning as necessary, with the cooperation of affected local government units and to fulfill other specific responsibilities as delegated by federal or state governments. e The Metropolitan Council was formed to address specific problems, but it had a broader focus. Its mission was to serve the metropolitan area. Over time it became involved in a variety of issues that helped the Twin cities metro area grow and expand in an orderly fashion. Over the years, however, the Council has become perceived as being more politicized. It has become an enforcer of rules and regulations, backing off from its role of envisioning opportunities or challenges that face the region, and responding to those opportunities or challenges. As the Twin cities area moves toward the 21st Century, it will face situations where a number of choices is possible. The Metropolitan Council must be able to take a leadership role in shepherding the area through those choices. It also must be able to promote the area as one entity, not separate communi ties, on matters of truly regional concern. THE AMM IS CONSIDERING THESE METROPOLITAN GOVERNANCE ISSUES AND BELIEVES THAT THE METROPOLITAN COUNCIL MAY NEED ADDITIONAL AUTHORITY TO COMPLETE SOME OF THESE TASKS. ONE WAY TO GIVE THE COUNCIL THE NEEDED AUTHORITY AND CREDIBILITY WOULD BE TO HAVE COUNCIL MEMBERS ELECTED BY THE PEOPLE, RATHER THAN APPOINTED BY THE GOVERNOR.

Does the State of Minnesota take any of the local property tax dollars? 6. Does the assessor set the value he/she wants on a property without reason?
