Adopted by the Stillwater City Council this 26 day of October, 2010. Ken Harycki, Mayor ATTEST: Diane F. Ward, City Clerk FIRE PROTECTION CONTRACT THIS AGREEMENT, made this day of , 2010, by and between the City of Stillwater, a municipal corporation of Washington County, Minnesota, hereinafter called "City" and the Town of Stillwater, an unincorporated governmental subdivision of the County of Washington, Minnesota, hereinafter called the "Town." WITNESSETH, that the City and the Town agree as follows: ARTICLE I The City agrees that from and after May 1, 2011, and until December 31, 2013, it will upon notification of the existence and location of any fire or rescue call in the Town and upon the request for assistance in the extinguishment, with reasonable dispatch, provide two units of motorized firefighting apparatus, one of which shall be a water transport or rescue unit, suitable for use in the protection of life and property against loss by fire or rescue emergency in rural areas each staffed by an operator capable of utilizing the apparatus and equipment in an efficient manner. Additional personnel and equipment shall be used where necessary and practicable, taking into consideration all of the demands being made upon the City Fire Department. The use of additional personnel of the City Fire Department shall be left to the sole discretion of the City Fire Chief, or duly authorized agent, whose judgment in any particular instance shall be final and conclusive. ARTICLE II The Town agrees to pay the City for the performance of this contract, for the period May 1, 2011 through December 31, 2011, the sum of Seventy -seven Thousand Four Hundred Eleven and no /100th ($77,411.00) Dollars payable by December 31, 2011; for the period January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012, the sum of One Hundred Nineteen Thousand Six Hundred One and no /100ths ($119,601.00) Dollars payable one -half (1/2) by July 1, 2012 and the balance by December 1, 2012; for the period January 1, 2013 through December 31, 2013, the sum of One Hundred Twenty -Three Thousand One Hundred Eighty -nine and no /100ths ($123,189.00) Dollars payable one -half (1/2) by July 1, 2013 and the balance by December 1, 2013. ARTICLE III The operation, management and control of the personnel and equipment provided by City hereunder shall at all times be under the charge and direction of the City Fire Chief, or duly authorized agent. ARTICLE IV City shall maintain general liability insurance for its services and shall include Town as an additional insured for the term of this contract and any extensions thereof. City shall also maintain inland marine, automobile, and property insurance coverages. City shall provide Town proof of such insurance coverages and the additional insured endorsement naming the Town annually by the anniversary date of this contract. 154509 City agrees to defend and indemnify Town against any claims brought or actions filed against Town or any officer, employee, or volunteer of Town for injury to, death of, or damage to the property of any third person or persons, arising from City's performance under this contract for services. Under no circumstances, however, shall City be required to pay on behalf of itself and Town, any amounts in excess of the limits on liability established in Minnesota Statutes Chapter 466 applicable to any one party. The limits of liability for Town and City may not be added together to determine the maximum amount of liability for City. The intent of this subdivision is to impose on City a limited duty to defend and indemnify Town for claims arising out of the performance of this contract subject to the limits of liability under Minnesota Statutes Chapter 466. The purpose of creating this duty to defend and indemnify is to simplify the defense of claims by eliminating conflicts between the parties and to permit liability claims against both parties from a single occurrence to be defended by a single attorney. Nothing herein shall be construed to waive or limit any immunity from, or limitation on, liability available to either party, whether set forth in Minnesota Statutes Chapter 466 or otherwise. This is a service contract. The parties do not intend to undertake or create, and nothing herein shall be construed as creating, a joint powers agreement, joint venture, or joint enterprise between the parties. ARTICLE V Under no circumstances shall the City be obligated to respond to any request for assistance when in the sole discretion of the City Fire Chief, or his duly authorized agent, any one of the following conditions exists: (1) when necessary personnel and equipment are engaged in combating fire within the City or elsewhere; (2) when road or weather conditions are such as to constitute an unusual hazard; and (3) when providing of a response would expose any person or property to unreasonable risk of harm from any release or threatened release of any hazardous substance, pollutant or contaminant, and if while City personnel and equipment are engaged in the performance of this contract, a fire should occur within the corporate limits of the City, the Fire Chief or duly authorized agent, may in his or her sole judgment and discretion withdraw all or a portion of the personnel and equipment from the performance of this contract for the purpose of responding to fire within the City. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto executed this Agreement as of the day and year first above written. TOWN OF STILLWATER Attest: Linda Countryman, Board Chair Kathy Schmoeckel, Clerk CITY OF STILLWATER L Attest: Ken Harycki, Mayor Diane F. Ward, Clerk 154509 October 25, 2010 To Whom it May Concern: FYI I am petitioning to change the City of Stillwater's Construction Noise Ordinance. Since the spring of 2008 my next -door neighbors have been constructing a two -story garage, doing the work themselves, at a distance of 10 feet from the side of my house. They are allowed by law to make construction noise on weekdays from 7am -10pm, and on weekends from 9am -9pm. On most days for nearly two years, my neighbors have been making construction noise during these hours. They are allowed 15 hours a day on weekdays to work, and when I come home from a long day at work I am not able to rest or have any peace in my home because of the noise coming into my house. I will outline below just a handful of incidents that are representative of a MUCH larger problem. My father died in the summer of 2008 and then my neighbor's daughter on the other side of my house was killed just a week later (I was home and was the one who found her body and called 911), and then the following month I lost my business and my entire investment (which constituted my retirement savings). I was anxious, depressed, out of work, and needed rest. But my neighbors were relentless in their pounding from 7am -10pm and I was not able to have any quiet during that time. At that point the construction was in the earlier stages and they were hand - pounding every single nail in both on the frame and the roof of the garage. On Christmas Eve Day 2009 I was awoken at 7am by my neighbor hammering on the side of the garage. I looked out and saw my neighbor Ryan walking back - and - forth with a hammer, pounding on the side of the building simply to make noise -there was no siding and he'd already put up the vapor barrier -he was simply exercising his right directly outside my bedroom window (of which he was well- aware) to be making noise at 7am on a weekday. Since we exchanged words in the past about the noise they are making, Ryan has made special efforts to start early and end late in order to make sure I am affected detrimentally. One day last winter I was awoken by a small tractor/ snowplow they own and found that my, neighbor was plowing a track between their garage and my house. Note: their driveway does not go through that area and there was absolutely no reason to plow it except for the fact that it was the narrow strip of land between our two buildings and again, he knows it is right outside my bedroom window. Over Labor Day 2010 my neighbors rented a bucket on a lift in order to install siding on the top half of the garage. This machine beeps VERY loudly whenever the bucket changes position — either up or down. So for three full days, while I was home because it was a holiday weekend, this beeping permeated my entire house approx. every 10 -15 minutes. I finally wound up turning on my stereo and increased the volume to try and drown it out, but by the time the weekend was over I couldn't wait to leave my home and go to work just to get some peace (which at an elementary school is still quieter than my own home). In July 2010 during the heavy rains I began having water pour into my basement and discovered it was running off my neighbor's new garage roof right onto my property. It continued to flood for several weeks until the city attorney sent them a letter demanding that they remedy the situation. Now they've dug a trench about 6 feet deep along the back and between our two structures. They are working in that trench, and all weekend long I heard their caterpillar running as well as other machinery they are currently using. At this point in the project, they have not even begun finish work on the inside of the structure. I believe it is their intent to have Ryan's mother -in -law live in the upstairs apartment, but it is FYI currently completely unfinished. There is also a large footing for a balcony on the back of the garage that has not been started. And their driveways are not paved yet, either. There is no reason to believe that construction on this building will be completed for months to come. I bought my property in the city of Stillwater with the expectation that I would have peace and quiet in my own home. That has simply not been the case; however, my neighbors have always been technically acting within the law which has left me no recourse. At this point I am literally at my wit's end. An ordinance that benefits one property owner to the clear detriment of their neighbors should not be allowed! The current ordinance allows construction to occur for 15 hours each day during the week, and 12 hours on weekend days. And in our situation, since Ryan does not have a job outside the home, there should be no reason he needs the evening and weekend hours to work. His mother -in -law is there to watch their son Levi, and he could put in 8 -10 good hours without disturbing the peace of everyone around him. Stillwater's construction noise ordinance also does not currently account for hammering noise, or other construction noise caused by non - electric, diesel or gas- powered machines or equipment. The current ordinance does not allow anyone else around the construction to have peace and quiet for any waking hour of any day. My proposal addresses the hammering noise, and it would give residents peace on holidays as well as one day per week. Since God rested on the seventh day, that doesn t seem too much to ask of my neighbors. Here is my proposed change to subparagraph (3) of the Hourly restriction of certain operations ordinance. I pulled some verbiage from other cities' noise ordinances: (3) Construction activities. No person may engage in or permit construction activities involving pounding hammers or, screaming saws, the use of any kind of electric, diesel or gas - powered machine or other power equipment except at the times specified herein. As used in this section, "construction work" shall include (1) operating construction- related equipment, (2) performing outside construction work, (3) performing outside repair work on buildings, structures or projects and (4) operating a pile driver, power shovel, pneumatic hammer, derrick, power hoist or other construction -type device. (a) Construction times allowed by the Stillwater Noise Ordinance are: Between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on any weekday or between the hours of 10:00 a.m. and 6:00 p.m. on Saturday. Construction activities are prohibited on Sundays and holidays. (b) Revocation of permits; appeal. The director may revoke any permit granted hereunder upon complaints based upon substantial evidence that the construction work causes significant disturbance of the reasonable peaceful enjoyment of the surrounding neighbors in the vicinity of the work site. Any person aggrieved by the granting of a permit or the refusal to grant a permit by the town manager or authorized representative may appeal the decision to the town council who shall hear such appeal at the next regularly scheduled meeting of the town council. I am willing to participate in whatever process is appropriate or take whatever steps necessary to make change happen. Please let me know what I can do.

In preparation for the closing date, city staff has been working on due diligence issues. One issue that has surfaced during the process that merits Council consideration prior to the closing is access. BACKGROUND The future armory site has frontage on two roadways. Along the north property line is Boutwell Road, which is designed as a "Minor Collector ". Along the south property line is County Road 12, which is designed as an "A Minor Expander ". Depending upon what uses ultimately share the property with the armory, either road should have the capacity to carry the traffic generated by the property and continue to function at a satisfactory level of service. ACCESS OPTIONS Two access options exist. They are: 1) Access solely from Boutwell Road; or 2) Access from both County Road 12 and Boutwell Road. Armory Access October 22, 2010 Pa ge 2 of 3 Access solely from County Road 12 would seem to be an option as well. But it is a county road and Washington County has stated they would issue an access permit only if access to Boutwell Road is provided as well. Option 1: Access solely from Boutwell Road One option is to provide access to the armory solely from Boutwell Road. Until such time as a fire station is built on the property, Boutwell Road should serve the site's traffic needs satisfactorily. If a fire station is built on the property, then an access to County Road 12 would also be needed. Access to Boutwell Road would cost the city very little, if anything. Turn lanes may be necessary at a cost of about $80,000, but since the future armory property would include land to the center of Boutwell Road, these costs should be eligible for payment by the National Guard. Option 2: Access from County Road 12 and Boutwell Road The second option is to create access to the armory from County Road 12. If this option is chosen Washington County would require the construction of a public road through the site connecting the county road with Boutwell Road. In addition, turn lanes would be necessary on County Road 12. The turn lanes on County Road 12 are likely to cost about $250,000. This cost would be the city's responsibility. Construction and design costs for the public road through the site will likely be about $450,000. Though, until the fire station is constructed, the road would only need to be paved up to the armory parking lot. This would be about half the length of the new road, and the National Guard would construct and pay for all of this. They would also construct and pay for the road base from the parking lot to the eastern property line in preparation for completing the road when the city builds the fire station. (See attached map.) All stormwater and wetland mitigation needed for the through road would be the responsibility of the National Guard. Therefore, when the fire station is built the road base will be ready to accept surfacing. In today's dollars, this could be about $150,000. Perhaps the only real challenge associated with the County Road 12 access point is that the new public road will have to align with Maryknoll Drive. To do this will require the acquisition of about a quarter of an acre of land from the property owner to the east. (See attached map.) A quarter acre of relatively low lying land will not be extraordinarily expensive, though it is possible that the owners of the property will not be willing to sell it. Consequently, if County Road 12 access is desired when the fire station is built, then a "quick take" eminent domain proceeding may have to be Armory Access October 22, 2010 Page 3 of 3 considered. This type of proceeding establishes the land value through independent appraisals and possession could be completed within 90 days. SUMMARY In summary, the city has two access options. Depending upon what community uses share the armory, either option should provide satisfactory levels of traffic service. Moreover, if Boutwell Road is chosen as the access point, the city should not incur any road costs. Only if County Road 12 is desired for access (either together with future fire station construction or earlier) would the city incur any road costs.

Theisen, P.E. Director /County Engineer Wayne H. Sandberg, P.E. Deputy Director /Assistant County Engineer RE: Development of an Armory Site along County State Aid (CSAH) 12 and proposed City Street access at intersection of CSAH 12 and Maryknoll Drive, Dear Shawn: We would like to thank you and Mike Pogge for meeting with our Public Works staff regarding the Boutwell area and the siting of a new Armory along CSAH 12. We understand that the city is negotiating the purchase of a 15 acre site on the north side of CSAH 12 between Boutwell Avenue and CSAH 15. The property is currently in the annexation area in Stillwater Township. This area has long been the topic of long -range land use and transportation planning and is subject to the orderly annexation agreement between Stillwater and Stillwater Township. Based on past development patterns and roadway development within the area, access to the Armory site has many challenges and the future uses of the site will impact the transportation network. Improvements will be necessary to both the local and county roadway systems in order to address access to this site as well as future roadway connections and traffic patterns in this area. In 2004, the Boutwell Transportation Study addressed roadway connections from CSAH 12 to Boutwell Avenue. The study identified specific challenges that would need to be addressed to safely provide additional access to CSAH 12. Issues pertinent to the Armory Site include: Opposite Maryknoll Drive, intersection sightlines are restricted here due to the vertical grades — access if provided would require modifications to CSAH 12 to improve sight distances to minimum safety standards. Between Maryknoll Drive and Northland Avenue, there is restricted sight distance to the east and inadequate spacing to construct turn lanes. Access anywhere in this location — offset from both Maryknoll and Northland — would not meet the County's access spacing guidelines and should not be considered. Opposite Northland Avenue, there is adequate sight distance and spacing to construct turn lanes for access. The 2004 study and an additional study of the Eagle Ridge Trail / Interlachen Trail intersection presented to the City in 2009 recommends a restriction or closure of the current Boutwell Avenue intersection with CSAH 12 in order to allow the construction of left turn lanes as a safety improvement at the Eagle Ridge Trail intersection. 11660 Myeron Road North, Stillwater, Minnesota 55082 -9573 Phone: 651- 430 -4300 • Fax: 651 - 430 -4350 - TTY: 651 -430 -6246 www.co.washington.mn.us Equal Employment Opportunity / Affirmative Action Letter to City of Stllwater Armory Site — Access to CSAH 12 & Maryknoll Drive Page 2 of 2 On September 27 2010 — you and Mike presented an option to the County for consideration of an access to the Armory Site — to be located as a "4'" leg" to the existing CSAH 12 and Maryknoll intersection. Based on the recommendations of the previous studies and the discussions in our meeting on September 27' the County would note the following requirements regarding access to CSAH 12 & Maryknoll in this area: 1. Dead end or Armory only access to the site would not be approved. Any new access in this area must be in the form of a public through street, providing convenient passage between the CSAH 12 / Maryknoll Drive intersection and existing Boutwell Road. 2. Creation of this new connection does not negate the need for future adequate collector street systems as this area redevelops, including a future through street northward from the Northland Ave intersection. 3. Any approval of new access at the Maryknoll Drive intersection would be contingent on the construction of left and right turn lanes and modifications to CSAH 12 to provide adequate sight distances, to Washington County standards. As with any new development, construction costs related to this access, including turn lanes on CSAH 12, would be the responsibility of the permit applicant. 4. The County is interested in tying any improvements at the Maryknoll Drive intersection to safety improvements previously discussed at the Eagle Ridge Trail and Boutwell Road intersections, including the addition of turn lanes, closure of the Boutwell Road intersection, and improved trail connections. Washington County could be a cost sharing partner in these improvements. As the City of Stillwater pursues development of this site for an Armory, the county encourages that recommendations of the Boutwell Transportation study and the 2009 Eagle Ridge Trail intersection study be taken into consideration. The county also recommends that a more detailed Transportation Impact Study (TIS) of this area be conducted since the future land uses in this area will be more intense than the current residential land uses. The county looks forward to working with the city on this project and will assist the city in defining future roadway networks, roadway improvements, trail connections, and costs for improvements /cost participation.
