ADJOURNMENT CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: December 1, 2015 REGARDING: Bergstein Reuse Committee PREPARED BY: Abbi Jo Wittman, City Planner RELEVANT BACKGOUND In June the Council received a draft reuse study for the Bergstein Warehouse and Shoddy Mill. The study’s assessment of the two structures indicated full rehabilitation of the warehouse would require reconstruction of the second floor support system, installation of new stairs, elevator and HVAC system. As the cost associated with the rehabilitation of the building will be the responsibility of the City, and it was assumed unlikely interior uses would generate enough funding cover the costs associated with the interior rehabilitation and exterior restoration, the Council upheld the recommendations of the HPC and determined the partial rehabilitation should occur. Partial rehabilitation includes the complete restoration of the exterior facades of both buildings, including modifications to openings depending on the final use of the property, as well as interior rehabilitation of the mill and the first floor of the warehouse. Proposed uses identified in the reuse study included basic services for trail users restrooms, snack bar, historic interpretation, community program and exhibit spaces, a National Parks Service visitor contact station as well as a potential bike repair or rental facility. Three primary themes stood out during the study process: take advantage of the riverfront location and proximity…to the trail; focus on recreational/non-motorized activities; and commercial amenities should provide only basic amenities for trail users. The Council also learned certain agencies and organizations were willing to partner with the City on the seasonal operations and programming so the Council determined the City would develop a reuse committee to formulate the business and operations plan for the two structures. SCOPING DOCUMENT Attached the Council will find a Scoping Document for the Reuse Plan Committee. The intent of the Scoping Document is to provide a framework for the Committee and to help guide staff in the development of an operations plan for the structures and site. The primary function of the Bergstein Building’s Reuse committee is to take responsibility for the development of an operation plan for the future use of the Bergstein Warehouse and Shoddy Mill while making specific recommendations for the rehabilitation and interpretation of the buildings. Members of the committee will include: Bergstein Reuse Committee Scoping Document Review (12.01.2015) Page 2 of 2 Stakeholder Agency/Organization Stillwater City Council National Parks Service* Department of Natural Resources* St. Croix River Association Stillwater HPC Stillwater Parks Commission Washington County Historical Society Upper Midwest Jewish Historical Society* ArtReach St. Croix* Stillwater CVB Stillwater Area Chamber of Commerce Independent Business Association Sustainable Stillwater’s Friends of Trails* St. Croix Boat and Packet* At-Large At-Large * Representatives of these organizations were identified during the reuse study process as having an interest and willingness to partner with the City in programming and exhibits. The committee is anticipated to create the plan within six months. During this process the committee will identify:  The specific community programming activities and events that will occur in the buildings.  The physical resources required for each of the specific programming activities.  Clear, concise and accurate recommendations for the interior rehabilitation and exterior restoration needs.  The human resources required for each of the specific programming activities.  The programming and operational commitments of each stakeholder agency/organization including the roles and responsibilities of each partnering agency/organization as well as the City of Stillwater.  Site-specific interpretation theme. While the reuse study identifies this committee as the party responsible for the development of rehabilitation plans, the City has not budgeted the estimated $75,000 necessary for the plans to be developed. Therefore, the committee will explore rehabilitation plan options. It is expected at least one member of the reuse plan committee will continue to serve in an advisory capacity for rehabilitation plan development. COUNCIL DISCUSSION AND ACTION The Council should discuss the Scoping Document and provide direction to staff for modifications and adjustments, as needed. If the Council is comfortable with the Scope of Work and duties of the Committee, staff will bring a Resolution establishing the Reuse Plan Committee for consideration of the Council at their next meeting.   COMMITTEE SCOPING DOCUMENT, PAGE 1 BERGSTEIN REUSE PLAN COMMITTEE SCOPING DOCUMENT A. INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND In June, 2015, the City Council considered draft recommendations for the future reuse and rehabilitation of the Bergstein Warehouse and Shoddy Mill, two National Register listed structures located in Bridgeview Park near the southeastern entrance to the City of Stillwater. The recommendations came about from a year-long reuse study process designed to identify the potential reuse and rehabilitation opportunities of and for the structures. The recommendation to the Council was that the “…the buildings could function in part as a gateway for visitors to Stillwater… a general consensus that restrooms and a picnic area should be included as part of any redevelopment and that vehicle parking should be limited…that any commercial enterprise housed…should not compete with existing local businesses.”  Take advantage of the Riverfront Location and proximity…to the trail;  Focus on recreational/non-motorized activities;  Commercial amenities should provide only basic amenities for trail users. Specifically noted, basic services for trail users, historic interpretation, community program and exhibit spaces, and a National Parks Service visitor contact station could be incorporated into the Warehouse. The Mill could serve as a snack bar, bike repair or rental facility or other trailside amenity. Amenities and day-to-day maintenance would be provided through a low-cost or no-cost lease agreement between the city and a private concessionaire (rentals, snack shop, etc.). The concessionaire would take care of day-to-day maintenance and security and would take the lead in scheduling events. The reuse study acknowledges “…[a]s public buildings, the mill and warehouse have limited potential to generate sufficient revenue to offset the costs of rehabilitation and ongoing operation. If the buildings are to be rehabilitated, the city will probably have to fund the work...[o]fficials and residents generally seemed willing to support some public investment in the property, but there was also agreement that the rehabilitation should be accomplished as cost effectively as possible, and that an effort should be made to generate some sort of revenue stream or barter arrangement that would reduce ongoing operating and maintenance expenses.” However, “[b]ecause of the buildings’ simplicity and relative lack of character-defining original interior features, no extraordinary measures or artisanal skills will be required to return them to functional condition….substantial reinforcement of the upper level floor system in the Warehouse would be required to return that portion of the building to active use.” Therefore, the Council agreed with the recommendations of the reuse study team and the Heritage   COMMITTEE SCOPING DOCUMENT, PAGE 2 Preservation Commission that partial rehabilitation should occur to the buildings. Partial Rehabilitation would include the full restoration of the exterior of both buildings. The interior of the mill and the lower level of the warehouse would be fully rehabilitated, leaving the interior space of both buildings finished in an open way to allow for maximum flexibility of use. B. PURPOSE AND SCOPE The primary function of the Bergstein Building’s Reuse Committee (the “Committee”) of the Council (the “Council”) of the City of Stillwater (the “City”) is to take responsibility for the development of an operation plan (the “Plan”) for the future use of the Bergstein Warehouse and Shoddy Mill while making specific recommendations for the rehabilitation and interpretation of the buildings. A primary goal of the Council is to adaptively reuse these vacant buildings. Following the anticipated outline, the Committee will identify specific programming and operation commitment, recommend site-specific interpretation, and draft recommendations for interior rehabilitation of the structures. C. COMMITTEE COMPOSITION Membership Committee members are appointed by the Council. The Committee shall be comprised of representatives of the following stakeholder organizations as representatives have indicated their willingness to partner in the future operations and programming on this site. In the event the stakeholder organization would not like to participate in the Committee, the stakeholder may nominate a representative of a different organization for the Council’s consideration or appoint an at-large individual to serve in place of the agency/organization.

The Committee will sunset upon completion of the Plan. While it is anticipated the Committee will be able to make recommendations towards rehabilitation, as well as explore rehabilitation plan development, rehabilitation plan funds have not yet been determined. In the event rehabilitation plans have not been developed, the Committee, or representatives thereof, shall continue to serve in an advisory capacity for the development of rehabilitation plans for the structures.  D. DELIVERABLES The Committee shall develop a Reuse Plan for the two structures. The Reuse Plan will, at a minimum, identify:  The specific community programming activities and events that will occur in the buildings.  The physical resources required for each of the specific programming activities.  Clear, concise and accurate recommendations for the interior rehabilitation and exterior restoration needs.  The human resources required for each of the specific programming activities.  The programming and operational commitments of each stakeholder agency/organization including the roles and responsibilities of each partnering agency/organization as well as the City of Stillwater.  Site-specific interpretation theme. Generally speaking, the Plan shall contain the following: Executive Summary, Building and Site Context, Partnership Profile(s), Challenges and Responses, Goals and Objectives, Services Proposed, Financing and Marketing. Date: November 25, 2015 TO: Mayor and Council FROM: Tom McCarty, City Administrator Diane Ward, City Clerk SUBJECT: Update on Solid Waste & Recycling Contract with Waste Management The City’s current contract with Waste Management expires on December 31, 2015.

Most of the capital outlay requests placed on the Consent Agenda are items that have been included in the City’s adopted budget for that calendar year and the department is now proceeding to acquire the capital item. The question has been raised whether the current procedure for approval of the purchase of capital outlay items is necessary and/or required by city policy. DISCUSSION The City of Stillwater Purchasing Policy provides guidance and outlines the approvals required for City purchases of goods and services (see attached Purchasing Policy). The necessary level of approval authority is dependent upon the dollar value of the services purchased (see Section 3 of the Purchasing Policy). In general, City Council approval is required for services purchases in excess of $50,000. However, Section 1.2 of the Purchasing Policy provides specific guidance relative to budgeted Capital Outlay purchases, essentially requiring City Council approval of all budgeted capital outlay items (computer items with a cost > $500 and all other assets with a cost > $1000). A point for discussion is whether the City could manage its capital outlay purchases in a manner consistent with the purchasing procedure for other services, thereby only requiring City Council approval for purchase of budgeted capital items in excess of $50,000. If so, appropriate amendatory language and protocols for purchase of budgeted capital items would need to be drafted for review and a resolution amending the City of Stillwater Purchasing Policy would be need to be approved by City Council. Staff will proceed based on direction from City Council. CITY OF STILLWATER PURCHASING POLICY 1. POLICY. 1.1 The City of Stillwater budget, as adopted for each year, allocates funds for the purchase of supplies, goods and services , contractual and consulting services, other services and capital outlay items . Requests cannot be made for items outside the budget except under special circumstances. These special circumstances will have to be approved by the City Council upon recommendation of the City Administrator. The Purchasing Agent is the City Administrator. 1.2 All budgeted Capital Outlay purchases must be preapproved by the City Council and related purchase orders shall be signed by the City Administrator. Capital Outlay purchases consist of computer equipment with a cost of more than $500 and all other assets with a cost of $1,000 or more that have a useful life of greater than one ( 1) year. 1.3 All budgeted purchases shall be submitted for review by the City Council and provided in the regular meeting packets . 1.4 Recurring charges such as contractual services (e .g., cleaning services, uniform services, snow plowing services , etc.), telephone, and utility services do not require purchase orders but the invoices for these services must be approved for payment by the appropriate Department Head or designee. 2. DEPARTMENTS AFFECTED: All Departments. 3. PURCHASING PROCEDURE: 3.1 Purchase Requirements: Type of Sealed Purchase Amount of quote Approval Written bid bids Contract order Purchase: required: required by: specifications: required: required: required: Purchases Not Required City Clerk Not Required No No No up to Asst.

Administrator or Deputy Treasurer Purchases At least three City Council As required As required Construction Yes, except over written based on type of based on projects yes; for certain $50,000 up quotes purchase. the type of commodities construction to $100,000 required purchase at discretion projects; unless special of City signed by circumstances Administrator City are noted . Administrator or Deputy Treasurer Purchases City Clerk City Council Required. Yes Yes Yes, except greater than must for certain $100 ,000 advertise in construction City's legal projects (i.e., newspaper Local Imp .); signed by City Admin. or Deputy Treasurer 3 .2 Bidding Requirements: 3.2.1 When supplies or equipment are competitive in nature, specifications cannot exclude all but one type of equipment or supplies . Proposals and specifications must allow free and full competition. Bidding requirements cannot be avoided by splitting a contract into several contracts, each of which is below the minimum amount requiring sealed bids. For example, the City cannot purchase $30,000 of lumber in several transactions, each involving an expenditure of less than $25,000. However, if materials or work logically fall into two separate contracts because they involve separate transactions, as for the service of contractors specializing in different kinds of work, the City can negotiate the contracts individually without sealed bids if the bids do not exceed the $25,000 minimum. 3.2.2 The City of Stillwater is subject to Minnesota state sales tax. There are a few exceptions to state sales tax such as the purchase of fire trucks or -2- marked police cars, and fire truck repair parts. Bidders should specify whether their bid includes sales tax or not. If an invoice for an approved purchase does not include applicable sales tax a corrected invoice including the appropriate sales tax must be obtained from the vendor. 3.2.3 Sealed bids are required for purchases exceeding $100,000. The bids must be advertised by the City Clerk in the City 's legal newspaper (Notice to Bidders) and publicly opened and approved by Council resolution. In addition to the legal notice, the City must prepare instructions to bidders and general specifications for sealed bids. Attaching a copy of the proposed contract to the instructions to bidders is required . 3.2.4 Bid security in the amount of five percent (5 %) ofthe bid (for sealed bids for purchases over $1 00,000) shall be submitted to the City Clerk. The bid security guarantees that in the event the bidder's offer is accepted, the bidder will enter into a contract in accordance with the proposal. Bid security of the successful bidder will be returned upon execution of the contract documents . Bid securities ofunsuccessful bidders will be returned within a reasonable time period (Minnesota Statute §574.27). Failure of the successful bidder to execute the Contract and furnish applicable bonds within ten ( 1 0) days after receiving written notice of the award shall cause the bid security to be forfeited as liquidated damages to the City. In the event the successful bidder fails to execute the contract, the City Council may award the contract to the next lower competent bidder unless the Council determines that public interest will be better served by accepting a higher bid, or the contract may be re-advertised. 3.2.5 Municipal contracting law requires that bids must be awarded to the lowest responsible bidder. It should be noted that the bidder who submits the lowest bid in dollars is not necessarily the "lowest responsible bidder" and the quoted phrase gives the Council reasonable discretion in choosing among bidders. Responsibility, in bid statutes, means not only financial responsibility but also integrity, skill , and the likelihood that the bidder will perform faithful and satisfactory work. 3 .3 Use of Purchase Order Form: 3.3.1 The Purchase Order form is the document which authorizes the vendor to provide a service or commodity to the City. 3.3.2 The Purchase Order form is to be completed with the name and address of the vendor, the quantity , the description, the cost, sales tax , and the account to be charged. The Department Head submitting the Purchase Order form must ensure that the correct account is listed on the form. Charging a purchase to the wrong account because funds do not exist in another account is not allowed . -3- 3 .3.3 The Original Purchase Order form should be submitted to the Finance Department along with copies of quotes and the original invoice. Additional copies of the original Purchase Order can be distributed to (1) Vendor; (2) Department Head . 3 .3.4 The Invoice form should be distributed as follows: Original: Copy: submit to Finance with initials of Department Head or its designee retained by Department Head 4. APPROVAL OF GOODS /SERVICES AND AUTHORIZATION OF PAYMENT 4.1 Upon receipt of the invoice, Department Heads shall write "Ok to pay" on the invoice, initial same , and submit the invoice to Finance. Note IC-134 forms are required before the City can make final payment for construction contracts with a value exceeding $10,000. 4.2 Finance shall review the invoice for correctness and compliance with the City purchasing policy and include the payment on the list of bills for Council approval in a timely manner and then files the invoice, purchase order and payment (check) accordingly. 4.3 The City Council shall appoint a Deputy Treasurer. The Deputy Treasure shall be authorized to approve and sign purchases in the absence of the City Administrator and shall follow the policy and procedures set forth herein . 4.4 Department Heads shall designate , in writing, employees within their respective departments that are authorized to issue and sign purchase orders, and invoices for the Department. The Department Heads shall be responsible for ensuring that the designated person knows and understands the City's purchasing policy and that the designee acts in accordance with the policy . 5. RECREATION FACILITIES MANAGER 5.1 The Recreation Facilities Manager shall be authorized to make purchases provided that the Manager follows the same procedures as stated above. 6. EMERGENCY PURCHASES (Pursuant To Resolution 2011-33 Adopted February 15, 2011) 6 .1 During a disaster or emergency the Mayor and /or the City Administrator may enter into contracts or incur obligations necessary to combat the emergency or disaster by protecting the health and safety of persons and property. The City Administrator may forego time -consuming procedures and formalities as it relates to entering into contracts, incurring obligations, employment of temporary workers, rental of equipment and purchasing of supplies and materials. -4- 6.2 Approval of all contracts must be subsequently ratified by the City Council at their next meeting. Appendix "A" -Copy of example Purchase Order form Appendix "B" -Copy of example approved invoice -5- DATE: November 25, 2015 TO: Stillwater City Council FROM: Tom McCarty, City Administrator SUBJECT: City of Stillwater Legislative Agenda BACKGROUND The City Strategic Plan included an action item to “Develop a Legislative Agenda”. While the League of Minnesota Cities (LMC) and the MetroCities organizations both adopt Legislative Policies to guide lobbying efforts at the Capitol during state legislative sessions, the City may have more specific concerns regarding potential state legislation that would impact the City of Stillwater. In addition, there may be individual projects that would benefit from state assistance or unique situations requiring support of the City’s area legislators in order to gain state legislative approval for the project or situation. Once the City’s legislative agenda itemized list is developed, the City will work to schedule a meeting (prior to the next state legislative session commencing Tuesday, March 8, 2016) between City Council, management staff and the area State legislators to discuss the City’s legislative agenda. DISCUSSION Both the LMC and the MetroCities recently adopted 2016 legislative policies that can be accessed at the following links LMC: http://www.lmc.org/page/1/currentpolicies.jsp Metro Cities: http://www.metrocitiesmn.org/vertical/Sites/%7B63D48B3B-FE99-433B-BCDD- 78BBF3D7629D%7D/uploads/2016_Legislative_Policies.pdf In addition, a number of specific legislative items have also been identified by Council Members and staff, including:  Brown’s Creek Park, parking lot construction adjacent to Brown’s Creek Trail  Stillwater Armory (historic) disposition  Aiple property, existing home  Bridgeview Park, bank erosion along new trail  Body cameras, legislation regarding disposition of data  Overhead Power Lines Relocation – Lowell Park  Hwy 95, Entrance Monument and Trailhead Parking (south side of City near Sunnyside Marina)  Downtown Façade program This is a preliminary list of possible legislative agenda items. Council and staff should have ongoing discussions, develop and prioritize a comprehensive list of legislative agenda items, prioritize, then contact the City’s legislators to establish a meeting date in the first 60 days of 2016.

Ayes: Councilmembers Menikheim, Junker, Weidner, Polehna, Mayor Kozlowski Nays: None PUBLIC HEARINGS There were no public hearings. UNFINISHED BUSINESS Resolution challenging 2015 Met Council System Statement Community Development Director Turnblad explained that at the last Council meeting it was clear there was concern about the City’s classification as a suburban community and the implication for density. He conveyed the concern to Met Council staff. The City’s options are to either agree to have a mixed classification for the City, or to include text in the Comprehensive Plan to identify certain neighborhoods as exceptions. The Met Council has not yet provided an answer as to which option they would support. He suggested adopting a resolution challenging the classification, with the understanding that as the two Councils confer, if an agreement is reached, the request for a hearing could be withdrawn. Motion by Councilmember Polehna, seconded by Councilmember Menikheim, to adopt Resolution 2015-203, Resolution requesting a Hearing pursuant to Minnesota Stat. Sec. 473.857. Ayes: Councilmembers Menikheim, Junker, Weidner, Polehna, Mayor Kozlowski Nays: None NEW BUSINESS Consider appeal by Bob and Rachael Bugbee of an administrative interpretation related to a lean -to improvement on their property located at 1427 Lydia Circle Community Development Director Turnblad explained that the applicants are appealing an administrative determination that the 2x4” frame on the property is considered a projection from the garage, and therefore needs to be either removed or reduced in size, so it is projecting no more than 3’ from the house. City Council Meeting November 17, 2015 Page 3 of 5 Councilmember Junker stated it appears that water runs off onto the neighbor’s property. Mr. Turnblad confirmed this. On a question by Councilmember Weidner regarding what the posts sit on, Mr. Bugbee replied that the posts are on 4x4 fence posts and the covering is just a tarp over the joists that come off the garage to keep the firewood dry. It is 9’ from the garage to the property line. He added that a couple years ago, the Building Inspector came and stated it was perfectly acceptable, and that it also would also be acceptable for them to build a carport in that location. In August, the City Engineer and other staff came and confirmed that it was acceptable. He asked what changed between then and now. City Attorney Magnuson explained that this summer, Officer Thorstad brought photos to his office and asked for an opinion. The photos show there are joists attached to posts of the garage. The zoning ordinance defines a structure as: “anything constructed or erected by humans, except for fences or walls that are 18” or less in height.” So this fits the definition of a structure. He went on to say the code states every part of a required yard space shall be open and unobstructed by any building or structure, except for architectural features which may project not more than 3’. He added that he cannot explain why the other interpretations were given, but it is obvious it is a structure and is encroaching into the yard space. Mayor Kozlowski stated it sounds like the City made an error - that is what changed between then and now. Community Development Director Turnblad confirmed that different codes have different definitions. The Building Official defines a structure based on building code, but zoning code sees it as a structure. The error was that one department did not ask the other if they agreed with all the definitions. Mr. Bugbee agreed it is a structure, but stated he did not see how all the City staff could have made the mistake. He reiterated that the building inspector looked at it after it was built and stated he could have a carport there. Councilmember Junker remarked that he has a problem with running joists out from the garage right up to the property line, tying it into the fence posts and putting a tarp over it; it looks unappealing. Mayor Kozlowski stated he agrees that it is a structure, and the 10’ setback should apply. Councilmember Weidner pointed out that if the applicant had gone through the permitting process before it was constructed, he may have had a different answer from staff. Discussion of Veterans Memorial Expansion Community Development Director Turnblad explained the issue: the Veterans Memorial Board is hoping to increase the size of the memorial grounds to create more area for pavers. The expansion would result in the loss of 10 parking spaces in Municipal Lot 19. The south side of Municipal Lot 18 immediately to the north has six parallel parking spots. If the lot were expanded to allow 90° angled parking here, the lot would have about eight more spaces. This would compensate for eight to ten of the ten spaces lost in Lot 19, but would require the construction of some retaining wall. The Memorial Board would like this area to be considered proof of parking to mitigate the spaces lost to expansion of the memorial. The Memorial Board is hoping that if the parking spaces are actually needed in the future, the City would pay for constructing the proof City Council Meeting November 17, 2015 Page 4 of 5 of parking spaces. Since Cub Foods has moved many of their staff out of the office building in Stillwater, the number of parking spaces currently available far exceeds the office parking needs. Councilmember Weidner asked why the City would not replace the lost parking spaces immediately, and Mr. Turnblad replied that lots 18, 19 and 20, plus the Cub lot have a total of 213 spaces available. The City has an agreement with SuperValu that there will be 210 spaces available. The reason why proof of parking is being suggested as an alternative to replacing the lost parking spaces immediately, is that the Cub building now is half vacant. Parking spaces are required based on actual building use. Today the number is 210, but that could change based on future use of the building. Councilmember Menikheim noted he does not remember seeing those lots filled in the last 5-8 years; he feels a few parking spaces are not going to make that much difference. Councilmember Weidner stated he would like to know the cost of reconfiguring the parking spaces in the north lot. Mayor Kozlowski remarked he does not want to violate any agreements with Cub. He asked if the agreement to provide parking spaces runs with the property forever. Mr. Turnblad informed the Council that Brian Larson has spoken with several folks at SuperValu, and reported that because they are actively marketing that vacant space, they do not want to give up spaces that could potentially be needed. They would prefer the number of available spaces not drop below 210. City Attorney Magnuson provided background on the City’s agreement with SuperValu. Councilmember Junker asked how many more pavers the expansion of the Memorial would generate, and Brian Larson, architect representing the Veterans Memorial Board and original designer of the Memorial, reported that currently there are 1,314 pavers with space for about 30 more. So at the current rate, space for pavers will run out in 2017. If the Memorial site can be expanded, it would allow an additional 520 pavers, which would fulfill paver requests for about 25 more years. He noted the expansion would better delineate the Memorial from the parking lot areas and reduce potential conflicts between uses of the lot. He added that Cub staff made it clear they had no objections to the expansion as long as they do not lose net parking spaces. Depending on the building’s ultimate use, the spaces may or may not be needed. The idea of having a proof of parking, so that the spaces could be built when needed, is a good solution. Councilmember Menikheim asked if the expansion would preclude the Farmer’s Market from being there. Mr. Larson confirmed it would not. Councilmember Polehna commented that the Farmer’s Market should be included in the conversation before the Council acts. Councilmember Weidner stated he feels if 10 spots are lost, they should be replaced right away. If the City cannot afford it, the expansion should not go forward, because the City has to live up to its agreement with SuperValu to provide 210 spaces continually. Councilmember Junker suggested getting a cost estimate for adding seven to 14 spaces, since the total of 213 is already three over the required number. Mr. Larson noted that the fewer number of spaces along that edge of the north lot, the less retaining wall would be needed; most of the area would not need a retaining wall, it’s just a matter of moving the curb and there is some expense there. City Council Meeting November 17, 2015 Page 5 of 5 Councilmember Polehna stated he is not opposed to granting the expansion if the cost of the parking spaces can be covered. Councilmember Weidner pointed out that the Veterans Memorial is asking the City to spend money it does not have right now. He would like them to use more imagination in looking at whether fewer spaces could be taken. Mr. Larson responded that the Veterans Memorial is trying to extend the timeline for these pavers to a reasonable distance in the future to eliminate the need for another expansion. Court Melin, chair of the Veterans Memorial Board, informed the Council that once there is some sort of approval from the City, they will seek funding for the expansion. Possible approval of resolution adopting City Strategic Plan City Administrator McCarty reviewed the major goals developed in drafting the Strategic Plan. He requested formal approval of the plan. Councilmember Menikheim stated he felt the mission statement needs updating. Motion by Councilmember Menikheim, seconded by Councilmember Junker, to adopt Resolution 2015-204, adopting City of Stillwater 2015-2020 Strategic Plan.

By: John Gannaway, Chief of Police ATTEST: Diane F. Ward, City Clerk 3 City Council DATE: November 23, 2015 TOPIC: Establishment of Trail Plan Committee MEMO FROM: Bill Turnblad, Community Development Director BACKGROUND At the November 3, 2015 City Council meeting, Council discussed a recommendation from the recently adopted Trails Master Plan to form a Trail Advisory Committee. Section 7 of the plan states: This committee could be a new group, incorporated into the work of an existing commission or subcommittee of an existing commission, such as the Parks and Recreation, Traffic or the Planning Commission, as determined by the City Council at their discretion. A special committee given goals, guidelines, parameters and restrictions could implement priorities consistent with recommendations of the Plan. The Trail Master Plan shows the system in general terms. The committee would need to refine the system looking at intersections, trail locations, specific trail widths and details of coordination within and through parks. In addition, the committee can review financing alternatives and assist with grant writing, events and education. The Council discussion lead to a consensus that: 1) a Trail Advisory Committee should be established; 2) it will be a sub-group of the Park Commission; 3) its purpose will be to advise the Park Commission on implementation of the Trails Master Plan; 4) membership will include (though no discussion limited it to these members) a Park Commissioner, a representative from the Friends of Stillwater Trails organization, a High School Student, and several residents. DISCUSSION There was no definitive discussion on several items that were included in the staff report on November 3rd. Staff will assume for purposes of completing the first draft of a resolution establishing the committee, that the recommendations on those items are acceptable to the Council. Specifically, those undiscussed recommendations are: 1. Staff recommends giving the committee a 3 year life cycle. It could be extended after that, if desirable. 2. Membership a. Resident of Stillwater Trail Plan Committee Page 2 of 2 b. Have experience in trail development, or experience with organizations that rely heavily on trails, or have a combination of experiences and background that would be useful to trail plan implementation c. Will be appointed to the committee by the City Council 3. Organization a. The Park Commission member of the committee will chair the committee b. A secretary should be elected from amongst the committee membership i. Minutes are not necessary ii. Meeting agendas will be developed by the chair and secretary in consultation with City staff. iii. Advice and recommendations to the Park Commission should be in written form from the secretary. They will be forwarded to City staff for inclusion on Park Commission agendas. c. The chair of the committee will keep the Park Commission updated regularly on work of the committee. 4. Meeting schedule a. Generally speaking, quarterly meetings should be scheduled by the secretary. b. Perhaps while the group is in its formative stage, the first three months or so, meetings could be monthly. 5. Work plan and staffing a. Since it is likely that the work of the committee will be to: 1) pro-actively monitor and recommend ways to implement the Trail Plan goals, and 2) review plans by Public Works as street projects are occurring; the committee will likely be jointly staffed when needed by the Engineering and Planning Divisions as agenda items necessitate. COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED Review the attached resolution establishing the Trail Plan Committee. If changes are desired, direct staff to do so. If it is acceptable, adopt it as is. Also, if the Council wishes to change the name of the Park Commission to the Park & Trail Commission, please direct staff to amend the applicable documents and bring them back for formal approval. bt A RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING TRAIL ADVISORY COMMITTEE WHEREAS, the City Council adopted the Stillwater Trails Master Plan on September 15, 2015; and WHEREAS, Section 7 of the Trails Master Plan recommends establishing a Trail Advisory Committee to assist the City with recommendations to implement the plan; and WHEREAS, on November 3, 2015 the City Council directed the Community Development Director to draft a resolution establishing a Trail Advisory Committee. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Stillwater hereby establishes a Trail Advisory Committee, which is to conduct business according to the following rules: 1. Position in City Organization Chart a. The Committee will function as a committee to the Park Commission. 2. Purpose of the Committee a. The purpose of the Committee is to advise the Park Commission on implementation of the Trails Master Plan. 3. Committee membership a. The Committee will be comprised of seven members.

Committee members will be appointed by the City Council. c. Term limits do not apply. 4. Duration of the Committee a. The Committee is authorized through December 31, 2018. However, the Council may at its discretion extend this another 3 years. 5. Organization a. The Park Commission member will serve as the chair the Committee. b. A secretary will be elected from amongst the committee membership i. Committee meeting minutes are not necessary. ii. Meeting agendas will be developed by the chair and secretary in consultation with City staff. iii. Advice and recommendations developed for the Park Commission will be in written form from the secretary. They will be forwarded to City staff for inclusion on Park Commission agendas. c. The chair of the Committee will keep the Park Commission updated regularly on work of the committee. d. Meeting schedule i. Generally speaking, quarterly meetings should be scheduled by the secretary. ii. While the group is in its formative stage, the first three months or so, meetings could be more frequent than quarterly. 6. Staffing e. Since it is likely that the work of the committee will be to: 1) pro-actively monitor and recommend ways to implement the Master Trails Plan goals, and 2) review plans by Public Works as part of street projects; the committee will be jointly staffed when needed by the Engineering and Planning Divisions as agenda items necessitate. Enacted by the City Council of the City of Stillwater, Minnesota this 1st day of December, 2015. CITY OF STILLWATER Ted Kozlowski, Mayor ATTEST: Diane F. Ward, Clerk RESOLUTION ADOPTING FINDINGS OF FACT, CONCLUSIONS AND ORDER RELATED TO AN APPEAL OF ADMINISTRATIVE INTERPRETATION BY ROBERT & RACHEL BUGBEE, LOCATED AT 1427 LYDIA CIRCLE CASE NO. 2015-38 BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of Stillwater, Minnesota that the Finding of Fact, Conclusions and Order related to an appeal of Administrative Interpretation by Robert & Rachel Bugbee located at 1427 Lydia Circle, attached as an Exhibit, as on file with the City Clerk, is hereby approved and authorizes the Mayor and City Clerk to sign the said Findings of Fact, Conclusions and Order. Adopted by the Stillwater City Council this 1st day of December, 2015 Ted Kozlowski, Mayor ATTEST: ___________________________________________________ Diane F. Ward, City Clerk STATE OF MINNESOTA CITY OF STILLWATER COUNTY OF WASHINGTON BEFORE THE CITY COUNCIL In Re: Robert & Rachel Bugbee 1427 Lydia Circle FINDINGS OF FACT Appeal of Administrative Interpretation CONCLUSIONS AND ORDER Case No. 2015-38 The City Council convened a Hearing for Case No. 2015-38 at 7:30 p.m. November 17, 2015 at the Council Chambers in City Hall. The purpose of the Hearing was to consider an appeal request from Robert and Rachel Bugbee related to a Zoning Code interpretation made by Bill Turnblad, City of Stillwater Community Development Director. The interpretation relates to the question whether a 2x4 tarp covered framed lean-to shed is a structure that must meet the required side yard setback for the property. If the lean-to shed is considered a structure by Zoning Code, then it must be removed to be compliant with side yard setback requirements. Community Development Director Turnblad interprets the lean-to shed by Zoning Code definitions to be a structure. The Bugbees have appealed that interpretation. At the Hearing the City Council considered the oral report of the Community Developer Director; testimony by the Bugbees; the Staff Report dated November 17, 2015 by Abbi Wittman, City Planner; and the Planning file prepared by City Staff for the Application. NOW, THEREFORE, based upon the documents that have been made a part of the file, upon the testimony of all those who offered it, and upon all the documents and proceedings therein, the City Council makes the following: - 2 - FINDINGS OF FACT 1. The subject property is located at 1427 Lydia Circle, Stillwater, Washington County, Minnesota. 2. The property is zoned RA (Two-Family Residential District). 3. City Code Chapter 31-305 (b)(1) requires structures in the RA Zoning District to maintain a 10 foot setback from the side lot line. 4. City Code Chapter 31-101 (156) defines structure as “anything constructed or erected by humans except for fences …” 5. The tarp covered 2x4 framed lean-to shed in question is clearly “constructed or erected” and is therefore a structure by definition. 6. As a structure, the lean-to shed must have a 10 foot setback from the property’s side lot line. 7. The lean-to structure fills space between the garage, which has an approximately 10 foot setback, and the side yard fence, which is located approximately on the side lot line. Therefore, for all practical purposes, the entirety of the lean-to structure encroaches into the required 10 foot side setback area. CONCLUSION OF LAW 1. That this matter was properly before the City Council pursuant to the procedure set forth in the City Code. 2.

Adopted on a vote of ___________ by the City Council this 1st day of December, 2015. CITY OF STILLWATER Ted Kozlowski, Mayor ATTEST: Diane F. Ward, Clerk City Council DATE: November 23, 2015 SUBJECT: Status of 2105 System Statement hearing request MEMO FROM: Bill Turnblad, Community Development Director BACKGROUND At its November 17, 2015 meeting the City Council adopted Resolution 2015-203 formally disagreeing with the 2015 System Statement. Subsequent to submitting the resolution to the Metropolitan Council, I have had several conversations and an in-person meeting with Ryan Garcia, who is the Metropolitan Council staff member working with communities in our area. Mr. Garcia then met with his immediate supervisor, LisaBeth Barajas (manager of the Local Planning Assistance department of the Metropolitan Council). The result of the sequence has been a letter (attached) from Ms. Barajas recognizing receipt of the City’s Resolution. The letter also explains that the Met Council accepts the City’s position that the Minar and McKusick Road North neighborhoods will not be included in the 5 unit per acre aggregate calculation for new development and redevelopment projects. DISCUSSION Ms. Barajas recognizes that both of these neighborhoods are already developed. From that standpoint alone, the 5 units per acre aggregate density will not apply. But she goes on further to clarify that unless the City specifically targets these neighborhoods for redevelopment in the 2018 Comp Plan update, they would not be considered “redevelopment” by Met Council. And again, the 5 units per acre would not apply. She also explains that a lot split is not considered “redevelopment”. And, what if the City wants to extend sewer into either of these two neighborhoods? Would that garner the designation of “redevelopment”? As long as the current 2008 Comp Plan classification of LDR (LDR Low Density Residential) is not changed in the 2018 Comp Plan, and “lot splits” do not exceed the currently guided LDR density (2.2 to 4.4 units/acre), then it would not be considered “redevelopment”. System Statement Page 2 of 2 COUNCIL ACTION REQUESTED Please consider the Met Council response and decide whether to: 1) Accept the 2015 System Statement and recall the Resolution submitted for a hearing; 2) Request further consideration or possibly a presentation by Met Council staff; 3) Find the Met Council response unacceptable and request a hearing date; or 4) Table for further discussion. bt attachments: Resolution 2015-203 Barajas letter RESOLUTION NO. 2015-203 CITY OF STILLWATER WASHINGTON COUNTY, MINNESOTA RESOLUTION REQUESTING A HEARING PURSUANT TO MINNESOTA STAT. SEC. 473.857 WHEREAS, the City Council has examined the System Statement issued to the City of Stillwater by the Metropolitan Council on September 17, 2015, pursuant to Thrive MSP 2040; and WHEREAS, the System Statement is in error and MN Stat. Sec. 473.857 allows the City the opportunity to request a hearing to resolve differences regarding elements that are believed to be erroneous. NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that a Hearing is requested on the grounds set for in the description of the disagreement together with the specified proposed amendments to the System Statement as set for the in the attached Exhibit A. Enacted by the Stillwater City Council this 17th day ofNovember, 2015. CITY OF STILLWATER Ted Kozlowski, Mayor ATTEST: Resolution 2015-203 Exhibit A Thrive MSP 2014 identifies the City of Stillwater with the community designation of Suburban. Suburban communities experienced continued growth and expansion during the 1980s and early 1990s, and typically have automobile-oriented development patterns at significantly lower densities than in previous eras. The timing of growth and expansion associated with the Suburban community designation may be accurate for a portion of western Stillwater. But, it is inaccurate for both the historic eastern neighborhoods of the City and for the western rural residential neighborhoods that were fully developed in Stillwater Township and annexed into the City of Stillwater January 1, 2015. Suburban communities are expected to plan for forecasted population and household growth at average densities of at least 5 units per acre for new development and redevelopment. While this density may be reasonable for portions of the City, it is not reasonable for the rural residential neighborhoods. Some accommodation needs to be made in the aggregated density calculations, especially for the existing rural residential neighborhoods in the City. November 23, 2015 Bill Turnblad, Community Development Director City of Stillwater 216 Fourth Street North Stillwater, MN 55082 RE: 2015 System Statement Dear Mr. Turnblad: Thank you for delivering an e-mail copy of City of Stillwater Resolution No. 2015-203, requesting a system statement hearing, and for meeting with Ryan Garcia on November 20, 2015, to discuss the City's concerns as related to the system statement. As was discussed, we believe that we can avoid a formal hearing on this matter with a bit of clarification of the contents of the System Statement and related Metropolitan Council policy. Specifically, the resolution and your conversations with Mr. Garcia indicate that the City's reasons for disagreement are that the "Suburban" community designation is inappropriate because existing neighborhoods that were fully developed in Stillwater Township and annexed into the City of Stillwater January 1, 2015-including the "Minar Neighborhood" and the "McKusick Road North Neighborhood" - do not meet a density level of 5 units per acre. As the City undertakes the process of updating its comprehensive plan, these neighborhoods-as weli as any and ail existing/developed neighborhoods that the community does not specifically identify for redevelopment via the comprehensive plan - are not expected to be calculated as the community measures its planned average net density. Adopted Metropolitan Council policy (see pages 116-117 of THRIVE MSP 2040, in particular) explains that density expectations apply specifically to areas planned by each individual community for ~ growth, development, and redevelopment. In the Metropolitan Council's perspective, the neighborhoods of concern are not new growth or development areas, and, unless the City of Stillwater proposes otherwise, are not expected to be redevelopment areas. Thus, per Council Policy, we would not expect the City to consider these neighborhoods in its planned average net density. Please note the following, as further clarification of how these neighborhoods will be considered by the Metropolitan Council with the City's Comprehensive Plan Update: • The Metropolitan Council approved the City's 2030 Comprehensive Plan, which included a City- defined future land use category of "Low Density Residential," for these and several other areas in the City with a density range well below 5 units per acre, although the City's overall density expectation was a minimum of 5 units per acre. If the City's Update identifies these areas in exactly the same or a very similar manner, the Council's approval of the Plan would be treated in exactly the same manner, all other things being equal. • A minor lot split (i.e. subdividing a 5-acre lot into two 2.5-acre lots) would not be considered "redevelopment" for purposes of density calculations. METROPOLITAN COUNCIL • Metropolitan Council policy (see page 117 of THRIVE MSP 2040) recognizes that not all development will meet the overall minimum density expectations, while other developments may exceed that overall minimum density. This acknowledgement affords communities with the flexibility to determine which areas are best suited for a range of densities-some of which may fall below the "average minimum" and some of which may exceed the "average minimum." Although the areas in question are not new development or redevelopment, this policy should serve to clarify that the Council values and encourages a range of local density and neighborhood characteristics identified by the community to best represent their unique qualities, strengths , and desires . Again, thank you and your colleagues and local policy makers for taking the time to consider the 2015 System Statement, to reach out with your concerns, and above all for being excellent partners in making our region a thriving one . It is our hope that this letter clarifies the Metropolitan Council's intention and position with respect to the System Statement, application of our regional density policies, and addresses the City of Stillwater's concerns in th is matter. We look forward to further discussion as the City progresses through its comprehensive plan update process , and remain available at your request to discuss this and other matters as they present themselves . Please do not hesitate to contact Ryan Garcia at 651-602-1832, if you have any other questions or would like to discuss further. CC : Harry Melander, Metropolitan Council Member-District 12 Ryan Garcia, Sector Representative N:\CommDev\LPA\Communities\Stil/water\Sy stem Statements\2015\2015 Stillwater SS Response Letter.docx Memorandum To: Mayor and City Council From: Shawn Sanders, Director of Public Works Date: November 23, 2015 Re: MS4 Ordinance Revisions- Illicit Discharge DISCUSSION While working on the City’s Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) General Permit MS4 update, the City’s consultant, WSB, reviewed the City of Stillwater’s ordinances and identified areas that have deficiencies in the area of Minimum Control Measure (MCM) III, which deals with Illicit Discharge Detection & Elimination according to the new requirements MS4 General Permit. Illicit discharge is generally defined as any non-storm water drains into the City’s storm sewer system. In order to bring the City’s ordinances into compliance with the new requirements of the MS4 General Permit, revisions to the City’s Ordinances are necessary in Chapter 29, Sewers, and Chapter 38, Nuisances. These changes are summarized below, with the actual changes on the following pages.  Incorporate clear definitions for illicit discharge, illicit connection, non-stormwater discharge, etc.  Outline exemptions to the illicit discharge prohibition.  Describe authority for the City to access facilities for illicit discharge inspections and to sample for illicit discharges.  Describe authority for the City to conduct enforcement to stop an illicit discharge and require corrective actions RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that council consider and approve the first reading of the revision to Ordinance 29 and 38 of the City code. The second reading will take place at the December 15th meeting. ACTION REQUIRED If Council concurs with the recommendation they should pass a motion approving the 1st reading of the ordinace.
