RE: TIF FUNDS AVAILABLE FOR UTILITY ASSISTANCE
The following is a recap and analysis of TIF funds as of March 31, 1992.
Balance on March 31, 1992
Less commitments and projects
not completed:
Lowell Park Study
Maple Island Parking Lot
L..I. 257 S.A. appeals and
legal expense
M E M O R A N D U M
$307,000
(25,000)
(20,000)
(65,000)
Balance $197,000
It is my recommendation that up to $150,000 of the above balance could be
reserved and made available to properties for the TIF utility assistance program
in conjunction with the Downtown Project, L.I. 257.
Original estimates of the utility assistance program (based on survey responses)
were between $100,000 and $200,000. In addition, it is my understanding that
some properties sustained additional costs that were not reflected in the survey
responses. Therefore, I would also make the following suggestions for the
utility assistance program.
1. Notice be given to all properties making them aware of the program.
2. Set a deadline for accepting application (giving ample time to
respond).
When the application deadline has passed, the City could review the applications
to determine the actual total dollar cost of the program. (It may be necessary
to revise the previously presented assistance schedule if applications exceed
the funding available.)

RE: ASSISTANCE FOR PRIVATE COSTS OF UTILITY CONNECTIONS AND FACADE
IMPROVEMENTS
A Downtown Utility Connection Assistance Program is described below. The
program has two phases. The first, utility connection assistance is to provide
aid in the form of grants to property owners for the immediate cost of utility
connection caused by the 1991 Downtown Improvement Plan. A Second Phase will
provide loan assistance for downtown building facade improvements.
Examples of how the program will work are shown below. The utility program is
for the connection of water, fire service, storm sewer, sanitary sewer or
electrical to the community service system and not up grades to the existing
system needing repair. This will be determined by the description of the work
and follow up inspection by public works or building officials if necessary.
The City installed and paid for fire and sewer services to properties along
Water, Chestnut, Myrtle and Main Streets where the streets were reconstructed.
This cost of the connections for one (1) fire and one (1) sewer service was
approximately $3,000 and would be credited toward City assistance. Below are
examples of how assistance levels would be determined:
Amount*
Utility Cost* % Assistance Assistance
$ 5,000 25% $ 1,250
$10,000 25 %/50% $ 3,750
$15,000 25 %/50 %/75% $ 7,500
$25,000 25 %/50 %/75% $15,000
*Utility costs and assistance amounts would be dependent on whether fire or
sewer connections were installed and paid by the City.
As you can see from the examples, the purpose of the program is to reduce the
cost of connections for the high expense properties. In preconstruction
discussion, it was estimated that high expense connection properties could be
as much as $10,000. The program assistance level was based on questionnaires
received from property owners describing their utility connections and available
TIF funds.
It is estimated that this level of assistance for Phase I Utility Connections
would cost between $100,000 and $200,000. This has been anticipated in the
planning for use of TIF funds. Funds are not currently available to implement
Phase II loan assistance.
Recommendation:
Consideration and approval of Utility Connection Assistance Program.
Owner Cost
$ 3,750
$ 6,250
$ 7,500
$10,000
I. Eligible Participant

I appreciated the opportunity to work with you, Nile Kriesel
and Dave Magnuson this past Saturday during our Team - Building
Workshop. I was impressed by what was accomplished and see a
very optimistic future for working relationships within the
Council and City Government if you continue on the path you set
for yourselves during this session.
A summary report of the workshop is attached (Enclosure 1)
which has copies of the slides that several councilmembers
requested.
You have asked for a proposal to complete the last two
stages of the basic workshop. I would be pleased to do this for
an additional $600.00. We should complete this task in a four -
hour period.
Also attached (Enclosure 2) is a proposal to conduct a
parallel workshop for the City's professional staff. You will
note that the fee of $2550.00 is slightly higher than for the
total of the City Council Workshop, but is predicated on the
additional cost for Myers - Briggs, the additional interview time
for a staff that is considerably larger than the Council and for
the fact that we would plan from the beginning on a 1 -1/2 day
session.
I have not presented a proposal for a final joint session
between the City Council and professional staff. Such a session
would appear to be a necessary and final piece to conclude this
activity and would be a day of combining the two sets of mission
statements, role assignments and goals -- with all of the
attendant advantages we discussed last Saturday. As with our
first workshop, I would custom design the material based on what
I learned from earlier sessions with the Council and professional
staff. I would foresee such a session taking one day and costing
$1200.00
Mayor Wallace Abrahamson
City Councilmembers
March 31, 1992
The fees for these additional services totals $4350.00.
These segments could, if necessary, be conducted separately. If
the Council elects to contract for the entire package, the price
will be reduced to $3950.00.
An invoice for the work completed thus far is attached as
Enclosure 3.

Enclosed is some information that came across my desk about Minnesota cities per capita
spending. As you can see Stillwater is one of the lowest per capita spending cities in its size
range. I commend you and the council members for running your city in a frugal manner.
• When budget restraints occur at the state level, as they are now, your city will be able to
withstand the cut backs with no tax increases. Your residents will most certainly appreciate
your ability to run the city on a tight budget.
Please be sure to contact me if I can be of any help. It is my privilege to serve you and the
residents of the City of Stillwater.

Mayor Abrahamson
City Officials
City of Stillwater
Stillwater, MN
Dear Mayor Abrahamson, Members of the Council and Administration:
Thank you for attending and participating in the public discussion, April 6, regarding the use of
property owned by School District 834. You demonstrated that you care and are concerned for the
quality of life in neighborhood. It is good to know that you are advocates for the families, teens,
seniors and children who dearly appreciate the North Hill and the open space of the property
owned by the school district.
As you heard over and over at the public meeting, the Washington School property, as well as
"Lots C" and the lots bordering the ravine, are highly valued as "green space." Now is the time to
preserve open space in the City of Stillwater. Some times it seems as though every space in and
around Stillwater is being developed. Now is the time to take measures to preserve some
wonderful land that has always been open, natural or undeveloped.It is not a lot of space, but it
makes a strong positive impact on the environment.
In the past we may have taken for granted how precious open inner city land was. We thought
that these lots would always be left natural because that just made good sense. Many residents
thought the City was looking out for the neighborhood and that the City owned these lots and that
is why they were safe from being developed. As close neighbors to the downtown historic district
we want to project the quality of life, heritage, prosperity and charm that is Stillwater's - and
preserve open green space for the children and for future generations.
The community is acutely aware that a change in the use of the school property and the loss of the
open lots will impact the neighborhood. In addition - the loss of green space impacts the
environment. It is strongly desired that the open lots and play ground continue to be dedicated for
park purposes and open green space. Communities across Minnesota are working towards
preservation of open space within city borders. Please decide to work to preserve "Lot C ", the
playground and the other lots as open green space.
There is good sense in having green space and play space tucked into a neighborhood located just
blocks from downtown. Visitors drive or stroll along the streets and comment on the quaint
feeling of the neighborhood. Families are attracted to the open green space and seek out homes to
buy in the neighborhood. Children just play and enjoy what has always been there - beautiful
natural lots here and there and a fun playground.
The play ground and the other open lots are an endearing characteristic of the North Hill, and your
efforts to continue this space being dedicated for park purposes and green space would be
appreciated. Your efforts will reflect that the environment is important to the community and local
government.
Thank you for your countless efforts to keep neighborhoods liveable and attractive and the
downtown vitalized and prosperous. Cooperative efforts and thoughtful planning improve life in
our community. Business, residential property and open green space contribute to the heritage and
charm of this beautiful town we call home.

TO: Mayor and City Council
FR: Steve Russell, Community Development Director
DA: April 10, 1992
RE: REQUEST FOR TIF ASSISTANCE FROM RYAN CONSTRUCTION
The City of Stillwater has received a request for TIF assistance from Ryan
Construction to provide for public improvements. (Curve Crest Blvd, Neal Street,
Highway 36 Frontage Road, lift station and intersection improvement at County
Road 5.)
The site is located in the scattered site redevelopment district and the city's
TIF policy would allow for the possible use of TIF funds to assist in extra
ordinary development costs, such as Curve Crest Blvd (MSA) and an area sewer pump
station.
According to the TIF policy, the assistance funding approach would by "pay as
you go" for a maximum of 50 percent of TIF proceeds. (All current TIF funds have
been committed.)
• As outlined in the attached preapplication packet, the development would result
in significant new jobs and added tax base.
The development proposal concept is consistent with the city comprehensive plan,
West Stillwater Business Park Plan and zoning.
The project design details would have to be received through the normal public
hearing planning review process.
Recommendation.
Direct staff to negotiate with the Ryan Construction for TIF assistance
consistent with the City TIF policy.

Vehicular traffic was forecasted for the Stillwater Retail site located in the northeast quadrant of
Minnesota Trunk Highway •36 and Washington County Road 5 (Stillwater Boulevard N.) using •
• three methodologies. This was done to arrive at the most appropriate number of trips
forecasted to be generated by this development.
The procedures, recommendations and trip generation rates documented in the Institute of
Transportation Engineers 'Trip Generation, 5th Edition" were used. The three methods used to
forecast traffic generated by this retail site are as follows:
I. Apply the ITE Shopping Center trip generation rates to the total gross square footage
proposed to be developed. The ITE definition of a shopping center is an integrated
group. of commercial establishments which is planned, developed, owned and managed
as a unit. This is usually an integrated unit of shops in one building or enclosed around a
mall and can include outparcels and peripheral buildings located on the perimeter.
II. Consider the entire development as Specialty Retail Center. These are generally
small strip shopping centers containing a variety of retail shops specializing
in quality apparel, hard goods, services and small restaurants.
III. Separate the total development into three land use categories - the Target Store,
the stand -alone restaurant, and the remaining development treated as a specialty
retail center.
Traffic from each parcel/land use was not forecast individually and added for the following •.
reasons:
1. There are no established trip generation rates for one of the identified land uses.
2. Adding forecasted traffic from each individual parcel or lot does not reflect
multi- purpose trips to the site. This'would overestimate the trips by, for
example, Counting a person stopping at the lawn and garden, grocery store,

• f. 1 n n :li y rather than 1: -
ut -irb� sti,re had d� .pia::.;' r�.,au: making 4 -�:a r�.,h.,... than 1: trip to.
the site.
The forecasted volumes expressed as Average Daily Traffic (ADT) and pm peak hour (design
hour) volumes for each method is as follows:

The pm peak hour volumes are of greatest interest and use in evaluating traffic impacts both on

Of the three sets of forecasted traffic volumes, it is my opinion that Case III is most
representative of the volumes most representative of the pm peak hour 'traffic that will be
generated by the full development potential of this retail site.

TO: Mayor and Council
FR: City Coordinator
DA: April 14, 1992
RE: MEMORANDUM OF AGREEMENTS FOR POLICE DEPARTMENT
The attached Memorandums came to my attention during a recent mediation session
with Police Local 320. Apparently former Police Chief Mawhorter entered into
an agreement with Local 320 on the appointment and tenure for officers assigned
to the narcotics task force, the Juvenile Officer position and the Investigator
position. I was quite surprised to see the agreements because I had no knowledge
of them. I do not believe the Council had any knowledge of them either.
More importantly, the Chief did not have the authority to enter into or sign an
agreement of this nature. It is my responsibility to negotiate these kind of
agreements and the agreements must be approved by the City Council. Further,
the Mayor is the only person who is authorized to sign these agreements on behalf
of the City.
Therefore, I would recommend that the Council adopt the attached resolution which
reaffirms the responsibility of the City Coordinator, the authority of the City
Council and the Mayor as official signatory. I will then, notify the Union of
your action (which should invalidate the agreements).
Attest:
city clerk
RESOLUTION NO.
INVALIDATING LABOR AGREEMENT
Whereas, the City Coordinator has and continues to be the City's Labor Relations
Representative; and
Whereas, former Police Chief David Mawhorter was not the City's Labor Relations
Representative and did not have authority to sign any employment agreement or
agreements which relate to terms and conditions of employment; and
Whereas, the Mayor of the City of Stillwater is the official signatory of labor
agreements or agreements which relate to the terms and conditions of employment.
Now, therefore, be it resolved that the Memorandum of Agreement signed on
February 12, 1992 between Police Chief Mawhorter and Teamsters Local 320 do not
have any validity in the eyes of the City of Stillwater.
Adopted by Council this 14th day of April 1992.

Mr. Steve Russell,
City of Stillwater,
City Hall,
Stillwater, Minnesota 55082
Dear Steve:
The Minnesota Transportation Museum has made an offer to purchase
the former Bayport Depot from the Stillwater Chamber of Commerce
and is making arrangements to have it moved to another site. Due to
highway load restrictions, it will not be possible to make this move
until approximately May 15. Since the building must be relocated
prior to that date, it is essential that a temporary location be found
to store the depot until the final move can take place.
By this letter the Museum is inquiring if the City of Stillwater
would be willing to provide space to temporarily store the building.
until the highway Ioad restrictions are lifted next month.
Please advise either myself or Mr. Bob Thompson if the City is able
to accommodate this request.
Your help and the City's is sincerely appreciated.
Sincerely,
1 John W. piers,
Chairman
