If my memory is correct, the 1 Minnesota Housing Finance Agency sponsored a program similar to the one you described several years ago. Local builders could, individually or collectively, secure these types of loans if they would guarantee their commitment to the program via a relatively ' high deposit. No local builders made application for those funds. I am not aware of any current programs similar to the one described above. 1 By this letter, I am forwarding your request for information to our local bank--The Chanhassen Bank. Potentially Mr. McShane can 1 provide additional information. Thank you for your inquiry and I am sorry that I was not able to provide more information. 1 Sincerely, i /Ca.: D.J.4„45E5 ) Don Ashworth 1 City Manager DA:k 1 pc: Kevin McShane, President The Chanhassen Bank 600 West 78th Street 1 _ Chanhassen, MN 55317 v.

I am interested in any formation you may have about city-secured low income omeowner loans. I have heard that the City of Golden Valley has made $1 million available to those interested in buying a home in their area, for couples with children and incomes under $30,000 a year. Do you have such a program? Perhaps you know of such a program through your local lenders? Please let us know via mail. Any information or advice ' would be appreciated.

' Being a public servant is often fraught with challenges, crises and pitfalls that would drive most individuals out and into another profession. But the dedication you have shown to the ' citizens of your community and to your peers in the local government profession by your length of service is a reminder to us all that it is for the common good and benefit of the average citizen that we continue in our profession. ' I wish that time and distance were such that I could present your service award to you in person. For those nearing the end of their long and distinguished careers and to those who are still in the prime of theirs, ours is a unique and rewarding profession. We can all be proud I • of the work that is done by each member of the profession. ' Sincerely, (i.uu Bill Hansell Executive Director 1 - �Lx�+.

The program consisted of using the Safe Escape Trailer which was I recently purchased by the Southwest Fire League. During the 3 days we were at the school , we put approximately 500 5th graders through the trailer . I This was a great opportunity :for the two Fire Departments to do a joint Fire Prevention Program, being that half the students live in Chanhassen and half live in the Excelsior , Shorewood, Minnetonka area . II I would especially like to thank Fire Marshal Tom Neudahl , Glen Johnston, Dick Mahaffey, Jim Mahoney, and John Mckee for the time they put forward . All did an exceptional job! I hope that in the future our two Fire Departments can participate in II additional Fire Prevention Programs . Feel free to contact me at any time.

MEMORANDUM TO: Scott Harr , Public Safety Director ' FROM : Mark Litt fin, Fire Marshal '' \" DATE: October 30 , 1991 SUBJ : Recap of Fire Prevention Activities i 1991 was one of the most productive years for Fire Prevention.

John ' s Preschool in Excelsior 10 kids 3 . New Horizon Daycare 50 kids 1 4 . Early Beginnings Daycare 60 kids The program for preschools consisted of "Sesame Street" Big Bird visits the Fire Station, what smoke detectors are for , fireman dress up , Freddie the Fire Truck , and handout material . ' Primary Schools - 1 . St . Huberts 137 - 1st thru 5th Grade 2 . Chanhassen Elementary 640 1st thru 5th Grade Activities included: Use of the Safe Escape Trailer, 911 Training, Crawl Low in Smoke , House of Fire, The Fire Triangle, Freddie the Fire Truck , Stop-Drop-Roll , Tour of the Fire Station, coloring contest for the 4th Grade Class , and a poster contact for 5th grades . Minnetonka Intermediate School 1 This was the first time the Chanhassen Fire Department offered Fire Prevention activities to this school . This year we had approximately 1 510 5th graders go through the Safe Escape Trailer . The Excelsior Fire Department had 4 firefighters assist us all three days we were at the school . In the spring we are planning to have the 6th grade 1 class participate. t0, PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER 1 Scott Harr October 29 , 1991 Page 2 I The Open House on Sunday, October 13 drew an estimated 800 people. Activities included the Safe Escape Trailer , Freddie the Fire Truck , hurst tool demonstration, aerial setup, House of Fire, movies , coloring for kids , and fireman dress up. Participating agencies were Waconia Ridgeview Paramedics , St . Francis Paramedics , and Carver County Sheriff ' s Department . Participation by the Fire Department was exceptional this year . For the school programs during the week, we had approximately 16 firefighters assist . For the Open House, there were 27 firefighters . The number of kids that we were able to reach this year were 1460 preschool through 5th grade , and 800 people for the Open House . To summarize , I feel the children in our daycare centers , schools , and special groups are receiving the most current and up todate fire prevention methods available anywhere in the state . Our mission is to continue if not improve the quality of training and teaching that we can make available . I 1 I 1 1 1 i 1 1 • CITYOF *11:Niel? CHANHASSEN 690 COULTER DRIVE • P.O.

The combined effectiveness of a truck's high under carriage and the four wheel drive capability meant we could access areas we would not have been able to in a squad car. Additionally, the Community Service truck was perfect in that it Iis equipped with the county radio system and emergency lights. I certainly hope that none of your employees were burdened by not having use of the IIfour wheel drive vehicle while we were using it. Thanks again. 1 Sincerely, ' • - i d'de n -- Sergeant IITo: Don Ashworth, City Manager From: Scott Harr I Don, I can't think of a better example .of how the Public Safety vehicles serve a multitude of purposes, and illustrates why I have recommended that the replacement for the old 2 wheel drive CSO truck (which we have found to I be virtually useless in the winter) be a 4 wheel drive unit. Such vehicles serve an important part of the overall emergency management plan, and this past snow emergency again illustrated the cooperative relationship of the I agencies serving Chanhassen. .e.A I IAffirmative Action/Equal Opportunity Employer rEl • ��� - Jj—[J- JEASYPLACEJ 7 c c �� �a _ ,rte, — r HAss. d\si RECEE V WNK NOV 0 61991 t:IT vt c:tihNt1ASSEN I November 5, 1991 1 Don Ashworth City Manager City of Chanhassen I 690 Coulter Drive Chanhassen, MN 55317 Dear Don: Thank you for your cooperation and help in coming up with the best option for what 1 has been described as a lose/lose situation.

The combined effectiveness of a truck's high under carriage and the four wheel drive capability meant we could access areas we would not have been able to in a squad car. Additionally, the Community Service truck was perfect in that it Iis equipped with the county radio system and emergency lights. I certainly hope that none of your employees were burdened by not having use of the four wheel drive vehicle while we were using it. Thanks again. 1 ISincerely, /ri- ' - - i d'de�n '-- Sergeant IITo: Don Ashworth, City Manager From: Scott Harr II Don, I can't think of a better example of how the Public Safety vehicles serve a multitude of purposes, and illustrates why I have recommended that the replacement for the old 2 wheel drive CSO truck (which we have found to I be virtually useless in the winter) be a 4 wheel drive unit. Such vehicles serve an important part of the overall emergency management plan, and this past snow emergency again illustrated the cooperative relationship of the I agencies serving Chanhassen. -g,..„), .

As promised, I have had the Carver County Sheriff's Department and Chanhassen Public Safety IIprovide a traffic radar survey of the area. Fourteen radar surveys were provided, which resulted in 88 vehicles passing through the area with an average speed being 20. 57 MPH. The highest speed clocked was 311(PH, with the majority of vehicles below the speed limit. 1 Because the results of the radar survey indicated speeds to not be in excess of the speed limit, I have discussed the issue with the City Engineer, and his position is that the speed limits would not I/ cause the Minnesota Department of Transportation to consider lowering the speed limit. And since speed limits are apparently being obeyed, advisory signs are probably not necessary. He reiterated his position of not to inundate the City with signs so II that people do not end up taking for granted the placement of too many advisory signs. II It is our opinion at this point that the continued patrol by the Carver County Sheriff's Department is the most appropriate way to remind people to continue driving the speed limit. By copy of this letter, I . am requesting that the - Sergeant in charge of the II • Chanhassen deputies continue to patrol 'your area. Regarding the issue of -the barricade, I have -consulted with the II Mayor on the history of this issue. 'While 'I was not involved with it at that time, he assured me that a great deal of discussion, including several meetings, went'.into the decision to place those I barricades. I have been advised that because of the meetings that had occurred prior to the barricade being installed, that the decision was to take the action to place the barricade. Mayor Chmiel said that this is not an issue that he sees as appropriate Ito be returned to the City Council at this time. I Is � Or PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER 1 Rick Schutte November 8 , 1991 II Page 2 1 While I am sorry that the results of our surveys do not warrant a reduction in the speed limit or a removal of the barricade at this time, we will maintain an awareness of the issues, and will ask II that the Sheriff's Department continue to patrol the area. If you would like to discuss this further, please feel free to contact me. In light of the results of the survey, I have not put this on the II upcomin Public Safety Commission.

INTRODUCTION I This Annual Report of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District provides a summary of the major activities of the Board of Managers during 1990 . Any person wishing additional information is encouraged to contact any individual Manager. II. THE MANAGERS AND MEETING INFORMATION _ I As of December 1990, the Managers of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District were as follows : I Robert D. Erickson 2470 Cedar Point Drive Term Expires Wayzata, MN 55391 March 8, 1993 I Thomas Maple, Jr. 19685 Lakeview Avenue Term Expires Excelsior, MN 55331 March 8, 1991 Clarkson W. Lindley 15500 Wayzata Boulevard Term Expires Wayzata, MN 55391 March 8, 1992 C. Woodrow Love P. 0. Box 524 Term Expires Excelsior, MN 55331 March 8, 1992 Richard R. Miller 5340 Hollywood Road Term Expires I Edina, MN 55436 March 8, 1991 James R. Spensley 5117 Chicago Avenue Term Expires Minneapolis, MN 55417 March 8, 1993 John E. Thomas 6326 Smithtown Road Term Expires Excelsior, MN 55331 March 8 , 1992 The officers for 1990 were: James R. Spensley President I C. Woodrow Love Vice President John E. Thomas Secretary _ Clarkson W. Lindley Treasurer During 1990, twelve regular meetings were held by the Managers on the third Thursday of every month at 7:30 p.m. In order to make the meetings of the Managers more accessible to all residents of the District, the Managers met in odd-numbered months at the St . Louis Park City Hall, and in even-numbered months at the Wayzata City Hall . The Board held two special meetings, in January and March. The Managers provided copies of minutes of all meetings and reports to interested citizens and to public officials throughout the District. Copies of the 1989 Annual report were filed with the Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources, the Department of Natural Resources, the Boards of County Commissioners of Hennepin I I and Carver Counties, and with State Senators and Representatives from the area within the District . During 1990, the Managers continued to work with other organizations concerned with water resource issues . The Managers exchanged information with other governmental units affected by the programs and policies of the District, and honored requests to attend meetings of municipal, county, and state officials, as well ' as meetings of interested citizens. Manager Love served as the liaison to the Lake Minnetonka ' Conservation District, the Eurasian Water Milfoil Task Force, and the Board of Managers heard reports from the Executive Director of the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District concerning this problem weed, and other issues concerning Lake Minnetonka . The Board participated in the activities of the Metropolitan Area section of the Minnesota Association of Watershed Districts, and in the deliberations of the annual state-wide meeting of the Association. Managers Maple and Spensley represented the District in respect to these activities . To expedite the District ' s work, standing committees were ' established in the following areas: Complaints and Violations, Finance, Rules and Policies, and Plans and Programs . Meetings of the committees were scheduled on an "as necessary" basis with the Complaints and Violations Committee meetings scheduled monthly. ' III. PERMIT APPLICATIONS The District acted on 178 permit applications during 1990. Each application received a detailed review to determine compliance with the District rules . Applications included, among other things, projects involving : dredging, shoreline erosion protection, stream and lake crossings, wetland and floodplain alteration, and ' stormwater management plans for site development, and after-the-fact sand blanket permits . Prior to Board action on an application, District staff spent considerable effort working with city staff and/or the applicant to bring some of the proposed projects into ' compliance with District rules . A summary of the permits reviewed by the Board in 1990 is attached to this report as Appendix A, showing the project location and type of application received. ' All permits issued by the District require compliance with applicable municipal ordinances and, if the permit involves docking on Lake Minnetonka, the applicable ordinances of the Lake Minnetonka I Conservation District (LMCD) . In addition, permits issued by the Watershed District require compliance with applicable rules of the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources . ' The Board of Managers also took action as necessary on complaints, permit violations, and activities which had been undertaken without a required District permit . The Board ordered -2- '1 restoration as required and took action to collect outstanding Rule I J fees . IV. HYDROLOGIC DATA COLLECTION I During 1990, the District continued its Hydrologic Data Collection Program. This is a comprehensive program, which, along with data from other agencies, has formed a long-term data bank for use in managing the water resources of the District, particularly Lake Minnetonka and the Minneapolis City lakes . The data is available through the STORET system, a data bank maintained by the MPCA and made available to various agencies . There were no major changes in the water quality of Lake Minnetonka during 1990 . Stream quality in the District also remained essentially unchanged from the prior year. V. HEADWATERS DAM AND CONTROL STRUCTURE (GRAY'S BAY) I AND LAKE MINNETONKA ELEVATIONS/MINNEHAHA CREEK FLOWS During 1989, the District operated the Headwaters Control I Structure at Gray' s Bay under the management policy and operational plan as reapproved by the Department of Natural Resources in March 1986 . The District ' s application to renew the permit for the control structure remained pending before the DNR in 1990 . Lake levels in Lake Minnetonka remained low during 1990 . Lake Minnetonka reached its highest elevation on August 3 , 1990 recorded at 927.43 feet . Due to the low lake level, no discharge from the Headwaters Control Structure occurred. The Managers continued to rely heavily on the municipalities I along Minnehaha Creek to record creek elevations and flows and report the data to the District. The District prepared monthly summaries of this data during the open water season and made the summaries available to interested municipalities and citizens . The assistance of each of the municipalities is invaluable to the District in making the necessary operational adjustments to accomplish the management objectives of the Headwaters Control Structure. VI. OTHER DISTRICT PROJECTS AND CONCERNS 1 . Lake Minnetonka Conservation District Management Plan. I The Board actively participated in the efforts of the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District (LMCD) to develop a Comprehensive Management Plan. The Board reviewed and provided comments to the LMCD Management Plan. The proposed LMCD Management Plan includes recommended changes in the composition of the LMCD Board, and funding for LMCD projects and activities from member organizations, -3- ' increased enforcement and protection of water quality and public safety enforcement issues on the Lake. Manager Love continued to serve as the District 's liaison to the LMCD. • 11 2 . Augmentation Wells . The District continued its opposition to the use of augmentation wells to increase the level of Lake Minnetonka. The proposals to use augmentation wells involve pumping groundwater into the Lake. While maintaining a posture of proceeding cautiously, the Board remained open to citizen input. From January through April the Board held monthly policy meetings to receive citizen input and discuss ongoing proposals and requests to use augmentation wells . The proponents, principally marina owners, stressed the impact low water levels in Lake Minnetonka were having on recreational use of the Lake, residential and commercial property tax values, and the overall property tax base. The Board continued to stress its ' principal responsibility is to protect the Lake and aquifer from potential harm. 3 . Dredging Level Limitations . The Board considered and discussed participation in a proposed Interagency Agreement between the District, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) , and the Lake Minnetonka Conservation District . The Interagency Agreement proposes to establish a dredging standards for all dredging on Lake Minnetonka . Proponents of a standardized dredging level advocate its adoption in order to establish criteria against which each signator can evaluate permit applications . Some members of the Board supported standardization in principle, while others remained opposed. Members of the Board who are opposed to a standardized dredging level believed a standardized depth contradicts the concept of requiring an applicant to demonstrate that the proposed dredging demonstrates a minimal impact solution. 4 . 509 Stormwater Management Plans . ' The District continued to pursue approval of its 509. Stormwater Management Plan. In 1990 the District submitted its 509 Plan to the Metropolitan Council, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (PCA) , DNR, and the Department of Health for review and comment . During 1990, the Metropolitan Council, PCA and DNR completed their review and . provided the District with comments . The Board of Water and Soil Resources has not completed its review. Concurrent with pursuing approval of its 509 Plan, the District worked with Hennepin and Carver Counties towards agreement on a Capital Improvement Program Financing Agreement (CIPFA) . Approval of the CIPFA would provide a process for financing capital improvements to allow work on various watershed projects and establish a process for County Board review of fund and levies each year as the 509 plan is updated. -4- 5 . Stormwater Management Plans . The District continued its efforts to work with municipalities to develop and submit stormwater water management plans to the II District for approval . Manager Spensley met ' with several municipalities in an effort to encourage support and efforts for developing stormwater management plans . The District currently has plans from the cities of Wayzata, Hopkins, Spring Lake Park and St . Louis Park under review. 6 . Dredging Licenses . I In 1989 the Board of Managers enacted a rule requiring dredging contractors to obtain licenses from the District prior to dredging II in the beds, banks or shores of protected waters or wetlands within the District . License applicants are required to be bonded and to meet minimum insurance requirements . During 1990, six (6) dredging contractors received licenses from the District . 7 . Other. The District continued Phase I of a monitoring program begun in II 1989 to abate non-point source pollution of Long Lake. The District began this project in cooperation with the Cities of Orono and Long Lake, Hennepin County, and other interested parties, pursuant to a Clean Water Partnership Grant from the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency. Phase I of the project will be completed in 1991 . VII . 1991 BUDGET As required by law, the Managers held a duly noticed public hearing on September 20, 1990, concerning the proposed budgets for the District ' s Administrative Fund, Management Planning Fund, Water Maintenance and Repair Fund, and Survey and Data Acquisition Fund. 11 Following the public hearing, the Managers adopted the 1991 , budgets for these funds and certified tax levies to Hennepin and Carver counties for collection. - VIII. FINANCIAL RECORDS The financial records of the District are kept by a certified I public accountant. All financial transactions are recorded in the minutes of the District ' s meetings . , The Treasurer of the District maintained separate records for the following four funds in 1990: (1) The Administrative Fund; (2) The Management Planning Fund; (3) The Water Maintenance and Repair I Fund; and (4) The Survey and Data Acquisition Fund. Records for each of these funds include the dates and amounts of all expenditures, the names of individuals receiving payment, and the II purposes for which payment is made. 1 -5- The official depository for the District is the Way±ata State Bank in Wayzata, Minnesota . The 1990 financial statements of the District were audited by a Certified Public Accountant . A copy of the audit is - filed with the State Auditor for the State of Minnesota upon completion. A copy of the Treasurer' s report for calendar year 1990 is attached as Appendix B. Respectfully submitted, ' James R.

COMPLAINT I City of Chanhassen, Defendant. 1 Plaintiff, for her complaint against Defendant above-named, states and alleges that: t 1 . Plaintiff is a female resident of Minnesota living in Shorewood, Hennepin County, and has been so at all relevant times . 2 . Defendant City of Chanhassen is incorporated in the State I of Minnesota, Carver County, with offices at 690 Coulter Drive, Chanhassen, Minnesota. 3 . Plaintiff ' s employment with Defendant began on June 6, 1988, and she was terminated on April 26, 1991 . 4 . In February 1991 , Plaintiff timely filed with the Minnesota Department of Human Rights (MDHR) a sworn signed charge of Discrimination concerning her work •situation at Defendant City of Chanhassen. 5 . After review by the MDHR and under the authority granted ' by Minn. Stat. 363 . 06, Subd. 4(7) , the MDHR dismissed the charge. Plaintiff received notice of the dismissal on September 18, 1991 , by letter postmarked September 17, 1991 . I I 1 6. Plaintiff brings this civil action in District Court pursuant to Minn. Stat. 363 . 14, Subd. 1 (b) ( 1 ) and Minnesota Rules of Civil Procedure. COUNT I. (Discrimination Employment Based on Sex) Plaintiff realleges those facts asserted in Paragraphs 1 through 6 as though fully set forth herein, and further states and ' alleges that: 7 . Throughout her employment with Defendant, Plaintiff ' performed her duties in a professional, competent and responsible manner. 8 . Plaintiff was employed as a Community Service Officer. Defendant employed one other Community Service Officer who is a ' male. 1 9 . During the course of her employment and particularly subsequent to June 1990, Plaintiff was continuously subjected to differential treatment because of her sex. 10 . Defendant provided to male CSO with footwear paid for by ' the Defendant yet rejected Plaintiff' s request for similar ' treatment. 11 . Defendant provided its male CSO with superior equipment ' while rejecting Plaintiff's requests in a belittling manner. 12 . The male CSO was given preferential treatment regarding ' his vacation requests . ' 13 . Plaintiff was denied training which was essential to the performance of her job. This training was provided to the male ' CSO. 2 14. Defendant unjustly disciplined Plaintiff for what it i considered gross insubordination. The incident resulting in the disciplinary action occurred at a time when plaintiff was not on duty or on call. However, the male CSO was scheduled to be on call, but was not available because he was on an unapproved vacation. The male CSO was not disciplined. 1 15. As an immediate and direct result of Defendant's said actions and failures to act, Plaintiff has been and continues to ' be damaged and suffer losses including, but not limited to, emotional distress, mental anguish, pain and suffering, lost opportunity and wages, as well as attorney fees and costs. , COUNT II. (Retaliation for Filing Charge with MDHR) , Plaintiff realleges those facts asserted in Paragraphs 1 through 15 as though fully set forth herein, and further states and alleges that: 16. Defendant terminated Plaintiff's employment on or about ' April 26, 1991 . The termination was clearly in retaliation for Plaintiff ' s filing a sex discrimination complaint with the MDHR in February 1991 . ' 17 . As a direct result of the illegal and improper conduct alleged above, Plaintiff has been and continues to be damaged and suffer losses including, but not limited to, emotional distress, mental anguish, pain and suffering, and lost wages and benefits for which Plaintiff demands damages as set forth below. ' WHEREFORE, Plaintiff prays that this Court grant her the following relief against Defendant. ' 3 ' FIRST CAUSE OF ACTION Ii .. Compensatory damages in an amount in excess of Fifty Thousand and No/100 ($50, 000. 00) Dollars. }SECOND CAUSE OF ACTION 1 .

A stray, wild cat found it's way to our house during the blizzard. We were able to capture it and place it in our workshop, which is located in our basement. After 5 days of feeding the cat' and trying to get near it, it was apparent to me that this cat was too wild to keep captive. I called for animal control assistance. Within 15 minutes, CSO Rob Nordland appeared at my home. - He is a pleasant, service-oriented gentleman. I am happy that he caught the cat so easily and secured it in a cage. ' He also spent time talking to my son, Elliott, who had his heart set on keeping the cat. He explained that the cat would never become a good pet and that made Elliott feel better. , Thank you again for the excellent service. I wanted to let you know what a great job Mr. Nordland did and what a great PR representative for the city of Chanhassen, he is. • Sincerely yours, ' 41A64 MA.

BACKGROUND 1 In our continuing efforts to provide responsive, quality and humane 1 animal control services to the cities that we provide animal control services for , the issue of how to most effectively deal with wild animals has continued to be somewhat of a problem. We have continued II to be confronted with the issue of whether we will interfere with wild animals in their own habitat , while remaining responsive to the needs of our citizens . Because these situations continue to come to our 1 attention , I believe a policy decision must be made. ANALYSIS 1 The tension that exists when dealing with wild animal control is found in attempting to balance requests from citizens and keeping nature in 111 harmony. This balance occasionally is difficult to achieve. There has never been an issue as to whether we would respond if a wild I animal is posing a legitimate threat to people or property. We have never had a problem with trapping or killing animals in •these situations . However , the problem comes when 1 people request that we respond to their request to act even though no threat to their safety or their property exists . The best example I can give are the number of II raccoon calls we receive. I feel comfortable in stating that, almost always , the problem does not lie with the raccoons. Rather, people have created a food source for the animals, and the animals I ' CSOs Animal Control Contract Cities October 23 , 1991 Page 2 understandably are taking advantage of it . One citizen trapped raccoons in her garage , insisting that our animal control officers go into the garage to catch them. After we did so several times , we explained to her that a solution might he to keep the garage door closed . She insisted that she had to keep the door open so that "kitty could get in at the food and drink that was always left in the garage" . On another situation, a citizen left generous amounts of bird feed out that would fall onto the deck, which the raccoons found most attractive. Our. experience has been that in almost every situation i v animals (with the exception of when an animal has been injuredgoriis ' sick) public education is the answer , not killing the animal for the convenience of the complainant . (Not only is it unlawful for us to transport , for example , raccoons , but it is our understanding that in excess of 80°6 of transported raccoons die because they are so ' territorial they will continue to roam until they find home again or die . ) Our Community Service Officers will have a substantial amount of literature, and be available to provide information to residents . ' Unfortunately, some people have been reluctant to accept this advice from our animal control officers, placing the CSOs in a difficult position, thus the need for a procedure directive. ' CONCLUSION ' Therefore, this memo will conclude with such a policy, and is being made with the recognition that one of the most attractive aspects of living in our communities is the presence of nature, including wildlife . It is the policy of Chanhassen Public Safety that we shall not interfere with wildlife unless the animal is posing a threat to property or the safety of people. Complaints about the presence of wild animals that appear to be generated from the presence of food or other attractions on the property that can be remedied by the people ' without undue inconvenience, shall be dealt with through public education. Furthermore, Chanhassen Public Safety shall not transport or destroy wild animals unless , again, the threat to property or safety exist . 1 I Ate` _Ce--4"' Cc CITY O N - .. .: 1 :,-,A,,_. _ ,iri-171- Aim, ' ' Nv--,, 1,---;,, \-1 ,!..-...i„, it fr,„..4,___I _, \ -147-.4074,,__,. -ci _,..,... ._ 1.::s._ CHANHASSEN fi90 COULTER DRIVE •• P.O.

TO: Dale Gregory, Fire Chief Sgt. Julie Boden Bob Zydowsky, CSO 1 FROM: Scott Harr, Public Safety Director DATE: November 7, 1991 1 SUBJ: Response Policy Review First, thanks to all of you for meeting with me on 10/31/91 to generally discuss the issue of response policy. I think one of the most noteworthy aspects of thetteeting was the respect that each agency or division has developed for one another, and rather than discuss issues of "territorialism" , the issues of importance were how to best get the job done working as a group. To provide a basic overview -of this brainstorming session, the consensus was that everyone is pleased with the general response to emergencies. Since the issue that brought us together was whether there are too many units responding to calls, this is where the discussion generally focused. - 1 Everyone agreed that the combination of the number of contract hours, current CSO staffing/availability, myself being available, the State Patrol °working out of Chanhassen City Hall, and more available daytime , fire department fire responders all make for better staffed responses--`than ie -tier fore The consensus was that it is nice -to have two trainedvolice/CSOs4that;.are. on the street respond immediately; to then have the fire department;-rescue squad assume the responsibilities they can upon their ax+tiyal; and, for the paramedics to take over,,their duties._upon=.arrivs(.,�. In turn, each of these agencies should:beeWware 'that it i,s important to leave the scene as soon as i if determined they are no longer needed. e 1 As a result of this meeting, I will be advising qualified CSOs that if there is only one County squad available, that they are to respond to emergencies, and are then to check with the police officer in charge at the scene and the fireground officer as to when they can clear the scene at the earliest point. While it is i t� PRINTED ON RECYCLED PAPER 1 1 1 not necessarily the responsibility of the police or fireground officer to dismiss the CSOs, they may certainly clear them if they are not needed. Otherwise, it will be the responsibility of the CSO to make the inquiry and to clear. As a point for discussion, we evaluated the recent call in front of 11 the Minnetonka Intermediate School on Hwy 41, south of Hwy 7, which was dispatched as a car/semi head-on. The consensus was that each responder was providing an important part in the management of the 1 scene, with each party clearing at the earliest possibility. Chief Gregory mentioned that he was clearing fire units as he determined that they were not needed. I would suggest that we each continue to monitor situations, and feel free to bring up concerns. I am going to further suggest that we meet periodically to continue our evaluation process. cc: Don Ashworth, City Manager Richard Wing, Councilmember 1 1 I i I i 1 J •+ 1 I i ti METROPOLITAN COUNCIL 41=1 AIM Mean Park Centre, 230 East Fifth Street, St Paul, MN 55101-1634 612 291-6359 FAX 612 291-6550 TTY 612 291-0904 I RECEIVED October 29, 1991 OCT 3 01991 1 CITY OF CHANHASSEN Paul Krauss, City Planner City of Chanhassen 690 Coulter Dr. Chanhassen N 55317 Dear M ss: ' I want to thank you for meeting with Council staff to discuss possible activities for the Council in promoting more effective service delivery at the local level.
