Reference Questions 6% Library users 3% December 1999 Circulation- 7,013 items checked out Library users- 3,737 A. Public Services: Adult and Children Internet use has averaged 4-5 per day. Complaints: patrons would Uke more space to study, ( the library can be very noisy), and more regular morning hours. ( We are only open Monday, Wednesday and Saturday in the mornings.) patrons have difficulty getting through to us on the phone, to renew books. (We call all the people who have books on reseve, which can take several hours. ) HOURS CHANGE: In September we changed our hours to dose on Friday at 5 PM, rather than 6 PM. In November all the Jibrarles dosed to allow staff to attend the funeral of former director Mary Heiges. B.Public Contact: CIrculation and reference question statistics continue to Increase. We get many re- quests for help with school projects, Including the accelerated reader test books. Some of our more Interesting questions: Somali customs relating to O1IistmaS, germ theory, cell theory, and evolution for High School sdence papers; school prayer, causes of sexual attraction, alcohol and teens, folk costumes, time lines and chronologies, costs of things in the 1930's, food allergies In children, how to copy- right a song, how to make a working crossbow, literary criticism, Native American tribes, and all sorts of subjects relating to Spanish speaking countries. mEN READ WEEK- in OCtober we had a drawing for teens who came Into the Ubrary, and the Friends of the Library provided the prizes. LAPSlT STORYllMES: These story times for 6-18 month old children were held on four Wednesdays In October, and were very popular. We could use more than one session. C. Community Involvement: Volunteer hours: 82. PROGRAMS: In OCtober we had a program on US savings Bonds; In November we had a popular talk and book signing by author FaIth Sullivan. (author of cape Ann and Empress of One) Both were sponsored by the Friends of the Ubrary. Staff re- deved a lot of praise from those attending the Faith Sullivan program, and they re- quested that we have more programs. Both of the Library book clubs read her books and attended the talk. FALL BOOK SALE: The Friends fall book sale was two days in November, a Friday evening and a Saturday in the Senior Genter. The Invltatlon-<>nly preview on Friday night, with appetizers donated by local restaurants, was well at- tended. D. Collection development: The new reference books make a big difference in how well we can serve the residents of Chanhassen-- our new books on animals, countries, literary criticism, sdence, sdentlsts, history, Native Americans-- continue to be used almost daily. We now have so many new reference books that they are being shelved on the top of the bookcases. Tax forms will no longer fit in the library and will be displayed in the hallwaylIobby. Our on-line databases ( some of whIch are available on a trial basis) have been more and more heavily used. We use the Internet more and more to answer ques- tions; having a staff terminal for the internet Will be a big help. Popular juvenile series are now displayed in spinner racks near the juvenile books, and videocassettes are now stored near the door to the library. The uncataloged paperback racks have been moved, to make room for a new refer- ence desk, and stored shelving was moved out of the staff room, to make room for assembled shelving. E. Staff Now almost the whole time there are two people on duly. Branch Ubrarian was treated for tendonitis. F. Building: The public Is anxious to hear news of the proposed building. cc ~ ~(,4' -- PATROL DIVISION Memo To: Bridle Creek Residents: Mary Minear, Lu Ann Sidney Carver County Environmental: Marcus Zbinden City of Chanhassen: Cindy Kirchoff Holasek Greenhouses: Earl and Sharon Holasek From: Sgt. Dave Potts Date: February 24, 2000 Re: Neighborhood Noise This memo is to clarify, from my perspective, the status of noise complaints made by residents in the Bridle Creek area. I have only recently been brought into this issue, but have spoken with the persons listed above and have tried to evaluate where the issue stands. Residents have a concern about a disturbing noise and what can be done to abate it. The noise occurs frequently for hours and/or days at a time during the colder months of the year, but sporadically, and may not be noticed for several consecutive days. _ Residents have walked and driven around the nearby industrial and business areas. They believe the noise of concern to be coming from Holasek Greenhouses. _ Residents have had contact with the MN Pollution Control Agency. The MPCA referred the complaint to the county and city. _ County Environmental has done some monitoring in the area as scheduling of personnel permits, have not found any excessive levels of noise, but possibly the monitoring did not occur when the noise has been disturbing. _ The City referred the residents to law enforcement to enforce the city ordinances regulating disturbing noises. It is my opinion that noises generated in the regular course of business activity are regulated through agencies outside of law enforcement. . Page 1 - Holasek Greenhouses have operated since about 1957. The only noise producing equipment they operate would be a wood burning boiler, installed according to existing restrictions about 1980. The equipment is maintained and inspected regularly. - While the residents believe they have pin-pointed the source to be coming from Holasek's there has been no independent verification of that, or of what piece of equipment is causing the noise. If it actually is Holasek's boiler, the latest theory suggests that during colder periods, the boiler works harder, brings in more wood chips, and brings in more combustion air needed to burn the wood, resulting in more noise being emitted, possibly through the exhaust. Perhaps, under certain atmospheric and weather conditions the sound reverberates in the Bridle Creek area. - Mr. And Mrs. Holasek spent a good amount of time with me and showed me the boiler facility. They welcome efforts to pin-point the source of the noise being complained about. They told me that, while they believe their equipment is well within any noise guidelines, if their equipment is producing noise that disturbs neighbors, they would consider any suggestions to deflect or buffer the noise as a good neighbor gesture. - Whatever the case, I believe both the area residents and the Holaseks want some final determination and resolution. - Sound can be difficult to track. It can be distorted, reflected, affected by atmospheric conditions, etc. I offer the following to assist on this issue: Residents will report the noise to Sheriff's dispatch when the noise is occurring. A deputy will meet the reporting person at their home to objectively evaluate the level or volume of the noise. Deputies do not, and will not use any sound meters, but will evaluate the noise as being reasonable or unreasonable. The deputy will then track the noise to the source and report back to me. I will report back to the persons listed above. - Once the exact source of the noise is determined we can look at options to resolve the issue. Thank you . Page 2 \æ ." ¡> .

CITY ùf l.in"""'''~-·_·· Diana Kasper convened the meeting and following introductions, Lee Meyer of KKE Architects explained the funding for the fields at the present Middle School campus and the proposed sequence of development. Points were made including: · irrigation is critical (it does not do any good to develop new fields if the old or new are not irrigated) · 70 X 110 is minimum size for soccer field · Chaska Tennis Assn. wants to dome four tennis courts which could be a partnership with funding from the Tennis Assn., Chaska Parks and Recreation, and the District. The discussion then moved to the Chaska High School site. Comments included: · High School Soccer will use Chanhassen fields after school until 5:30 PM in the Fall, 2000. · Fields must be irrigated or they will turn brick hard. · To accommodate Youth Soccer, work on fields would need to wait until after July 10th · Work on the fields was budgeted for $180,000 · Low cost/minimal reconstruction would cost $60,000 · High perfonnance fields (sand peat) would cost around $350,000 · Concern about the high use of the fields mean that the low cost/minimal reconstruction would be wasted money and effort · Concern about the seeding and watering being done properly was answered by having John Hopko, turf specialist, supervise the project · Sand peat fields are high maintenance (more watering and more fertilizer) · Well would be needed to offset the cost of city water (cost estimate $45,000) · Fmstrating to taxpayers when the fields at surrounding school districts look so much better. Our use is increasing. There was consensus about holding off doing anything at the site until July 10th and eliminating the path between the fields. Can we change the budget for the site? What is the cost of bleachers? Why the difference between $150,000 and S120,000 It was later explained that the difference of$30,000 is in the design costs, the fencing, etc. Groups indicated that they might be able to fund the bleachers so that the money contributed could go back to fields to get sand peat fields. "Need to do things right". The group felt that the filds need to be of quality this time around or another referendum would not be supported $250,000 -180,000 75,000 needed from fundraising The money for the well might come from capital outlay funds Concern about the funds committed to Chaska High School fields not being used for other purpose if fields would be delayed. Timeline for doing South fields needed with a "drop dead" date for the fundraising. New Middle School Participants will be invited to the Design Team meeting when outdoor facilities are discussed. Legislative Bill "Mighty Kicks" #2733 was described and persons ask to write local legislators (Carol Molnau) and the Governor to support. .... tD tD <n ""' tD tn 0 0 0 0 0 0 c ~ z z c: .. 0 0 :0 ""' Z CD ,. n > e ....

Unfortunately, the commission does not see a way in which to expedite the 2nd phase of the Stone Creek playground. As you know, the expansion is scheduled for 2003 at a $20,000 level. The commission reviewed your letter at their February 22 meeting. Upon conclusion of the discussion that evening, Chair Lash requested that I notify you of their finding. Commissioner Mike Howe, who I understand is your neighbor, would also be happy to discuss the realities of the commission's budget constraints with you. Again, thank you for your letter.

Fran Bradley (R-Rochester). Under the bill, bleachers less than 55 inches would be exempt, the compliance date would be moved to August 1, 2001, and existing bleachers with 9-inch or less gaps would be grancffathered. Under current law, bleachers less than 30 inches are exempt and all bleachers must conform to the 4-inch gap standard by Jan. 1, 2001. The House committee action may be for naught. The Senate Govern- ment Operations Committee late last night defeated a similar bill offered by Sen. Deanna Wiener (DFL-Eagan) on a 5-4 vote. We'll have to see i1 the Senate bill can be reincarnated, or " another bill becomes a vehicle 10r further action. Transportation funding On Thursday, the Senate Trans- pOl1ation Committee considered a delete-all amendment to a bill offered by Sen. Carol Flynn (DFL- Minneapolis) that would modity 1unding for transportation and transit. The proposal would reduce license tab fees, replace lost revenue with sales tax from motor vehicle sales, create a multi-modal 1und with additional motor vehicle sales tax receipts, and dedicate the sales tax on motor vehicles to the multi-modaI1und. The Flynn proposal on tab fee reductions Is less aggressive than the govemor's proposal to limit license 1ees to $75 per vehicle. The governor's proposal would require the dedication 01 54 per- cent of the sales tax on motor vehicles to maintain the Highway User Tax Distribution Fund. The balance of the sales tax on motor vehicles would be dedicated to a multi-modaI1und. The Flynn proposal would maintain the 1unding 10r the Highway User Tax Distribution Fund through a 25 percent dedication, and make an additional $300 million per year available to fund transpol1ation and transit projects across the state through the multi-modaI1und. The debate is 1ar 1rom being resolved. The House has yet to solidify Its transpol1ation funding strategy. There are bills in the House that loosely resemble the governor's proposal. And a bill was introduced yesterday that would speed up current projects by trans1erring nearly $400 million 1rom the general1und and $77 million 1rom the trunk highway 1und to the Dept. 01 Transportation 10r state road construction projects. House budget resolution The House Ways and Means Committee adopted a budget resolution yesterday that estab- lishes spending targets for the 1inance committees. The committee with the largest authorization is transportation 1inance, with $350 million to allocate for transportation projects. The next highest commit- tee is K-12 education 1inance Wilh $28 million. These targels do not include lax cuts, which Ihe lax committee may pass, or capital projects 10 be paid through Slale bonds. The Senale will sel its own bUdgel largets soon. D"ferences will have to be resolved between House and Senale leaders as Ihe omnibus spending bills move into confer- ence commlnee.

The law authotizes focal governments to pelition Ihe state for amendmem or repeal 01 a state agency rule if the rule Is unreasonable or if a less costly method of achieving the purpose of the rule is found. The bill, carried by Rep. Sherry Broecker (A-Vadnais Heights), will extend the sunset to July 31, 2006. Business subsidies bills H.F. 3057, imroduced by Rep. Dan McElroy (R-Burnsville), and the companion bill S.F. 2893, Imro- duced by Sen. John Hottinger (DFL-Mankalo). received hearings in the House and Senate this week. The two versions comain some considerable differences. The House bill still increases the $25,000 threshold to $100,000. The Senate bill contains new requirements communities must adopt prior to awarding any new business subsidies, and require- mems dealing with time limits for the goals that must be idemified In the sUbsidy agreemem. Provisions that appeared in the otiginal version of the Senate bill, including a relocation impact study require- mem, additional relocation report- Ing requirements, and certain details regarding the specific wage floor requirement, are no longer Included. The House bill was re-referred to the tax committee and the Senate bill was sent directly to the floor. We expect the two bills to be reconciled In conference commit- tee. Look for more details in the next Cirles Bullerln. County plat review SF 702 (Vickerman) was pasSed by the Senate Transportation Comminee to the Senate floor yesterday. The House Transporta- tion Committee will hear H.F. 672 (Kuisle) today and it will likely be referred to Ihe Local Government Comminee. Unlike the original version, this bill does NOT require county approval ¡or city plats. This bill: · Clarifies the comment period for cities, towns and county plats. · Requires counties to develop guidelines for their use when reviewing plats abuning county roads. · Does NOT allow county approval of city or town plats. · Does NOT imerfere with approval timelines. With this amendment, the League of Minnesota Cities and the Asso- ciation of Metropolitan Municipali- ties no longer oppose this bill.

Currently, there are only two places that dogs can be off leash but still within their owners control; on a public water body or on private property. Dogs are allowed on leash on city street right-of-ways and city trails. Currently, Carver County allows leashed pets anywhere within the boundaries of Minnewashta Regional Park. Pets on or off leash are restricted from city parks with the exception of walking leashed pets on trails within park boundaries. Carver County Parks Director Marty Walsh is considering the development of a fenced "off leash" exercise area at Minnewashta Regional Park; however, the park's current master plan does not include such a facility. Overall the city receives many more complaints about dog problems than complaints about the lack of rights for dogs and their owners. The Park and Recreation Commission has reviewed the policy of restricting dogs from city parks on a couple of occasions over the past 10 years. In all instances, the ordinance has been upheld. If you have any questions or comments regarding this topic, please contact me. s~~ Todd Hoffman Park and Recreation Director c: Scott Botcher, City Manager Mayor and City Council Park and Recreation Commission BOB MARTINKA U.S. Census 2000 Recruiter / Carver County 6650 Powers Blvd. Chanhassen, MN 55317 (612) 474-1103 Cell Phone (612) 816-4621 E-Mail: martinka@ix.netcom.com March I, 2000 TO: Mayor Nancy Mancino Mark Engel Linda Jansen Steve Labatt Mark Senn RE: U.S. Census 2000 ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Thank you for your attention during the February 14th meeting of the City Council to the brief comments made by Mr. Ivan Schultz regarding the status of U.S. Census 2000 in the Chanhassen area. I have since been assigned responsibility for this part of Carver County. The response to our various initiatives to employ the number of census takers essential to the Chanhassen area must be substantially improved if we are to achieve the goal set for our community. Assistance from and the participation by civic, business, church and social groups will be essential if we are identify and attract a good work force for this 4-6 week activity. We remain in contact with these sectors. I expect there are just so many more options available to our local and area residents and other activity competing for their attention.....making the part-time income not as attractive as in the more rural cities and towns of Carver County where response is somewhat larger. Minnesota reports that for every individual counted or not counted, there can be up to a $2,500 differentiual in support to an area. Assuming there is quite a range of impact for various areas, it still appears that communiuties have a major vested interest, especially in a growing and changing demographic environment. We are asking assistance of each city and township in form of sending a letter to former or recent Election Judges encouraging their application for Census enumerator positions. I have met with Office Manager Karen Engelhardt <egarding this assistance, provided her with a draft letter and necessary materials, and she was most c,\operative in taking this under consideration. , Individual referrals to orosoective 'census-takers from members of the council and from all citv emplovees are most welcome and mav made either to me at 474-1103 or simply suggest thev give me or the Census Bureau (445-0202) a call. Our appreciation to the City for space that continues to be provided for our weekly information and job application sessions.

I am enclosing a memo to Senator Oliver and Representative Workman from Ron Batty discussing this issue. As [ find it to be a fairly clear and weil written memo regarding this issue.

MEMORANDUM TO: Senator Ed Oliver and Representative Tom Workman FROM: Ron Batty, Chanhassen EDA Attorney DATE: February 15,2000 RE: Amendment to Tax Increment Financing Act Weare proposing an amendment of general application to the tax incre.hent financing act for the purpose of clarifying the durational limits of economic development TIF districts. With respect to all other types of TIF districts, state law describes the durationallimit as a specified number of years after receipt of the first increment. Another provision of the TIF statute allows an authority to retain all increment payable in the final calen(\ar year of the district. The one exception to the rule is with regard to economic development TIF districts. Current law specifies the durational limit as nine years after receipt of the first increment or II years from the date of approval of the tax increment financing plan, whichever occurs 1Ïrst. This dual method of calculating duration is confusing and often results in the authority receiving one fewer year of increment than it had anticipated. The proposed amendment, a copy of which is attached. would correct the problem by making the method for calculating the duration of economic development districts consistent with that applied to all other TIF districts. The limit would be set at nine years after receipt of the !ïrst increment for all districts for which certi!ïcation was requested after May 31, 1993 and eight years after receipt of the first increment for all economic development districts for which certitìcation was made before June I, 1993. This ditIerence reflects a 1993 change in the statute which extended by one year the duration of newly established economic development districts. The amendment would be effective prospectively and retroactively for open districts. The amendment would apply to all districts for which certitìcation was requested after May I, 2000, the presumed effective date of the statute. The amendment would also be effective for all districts established after July 31, 1979, but before May I, 2000, which had not yet reached the maximum duration as expressed in the amendment and for districts established between those dates and for which the authority had received increment from the county after the durational limit calculated from the date of approval of ::he plan but within the durational limits if the amendment had been in effect at the time the district was requested for certitìcation. Essentially, the amendment is retroactive with regard to dislricts which have not yet been decertified and for districts which have been caught in the inconsistency between the two methods of calculating duration. The circumstance which the amendment is designed to correct is illustrated by a probIem in which Chanhassen currently finds itself. Chanhassen established an economic development TIF district in 1988. At that time, the law limited such districts to 10 years from the date of approval of the plan or 8 years after receipt of the first increment. Chanhassen received its !ïrst increment 1991. Under that portion of the durational rule, it should have been able to receive increment RHB·176174,:1 CH 130-69 through the end of 1999. However, the district was created in March of 1988. Application of the ten year rule means that the district should terminate in March, 1998. Because March is earlier in the year than the date of receipt of even first half tax payments from the county, the authority should not have received any increment in 1998. Nonetheless, Carver county paid increment to the authority through 1998. Chanhassen spent the money, relying on the county to be administering the district's duration. Chanhassen has now been cited for a violation by the Office of State Auditor (OSA) and is being ordered to repay $711,000. The dual ways of computing durationallimits for economic development districts have been a problem for numerous cities in the state. The legislation, while beneficial to Chanhassen, will also be helpful to all cities similarly situated. I have discussed this matter with Bill Connors, the director of the tax increment financing division of the OSA. Mr. Connors has stated that his office will not oppose this legislation. RHB-J7617-h-l CHI30-69 SUBURBAN TRANSIT ASSOCIATION LEGISLATIVE REPORT REPORT 2000-3 FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 2000 LEGISLATORS PURSUE BONDING AUTHORIZATION FOR METRO TRANSIT Representative Ron Abrams (R-Minnetonka) and Senator Sandy Pappas (DFL-St. Paul) have introduced bills that would increase the bonding authority provided to the Metropolitan Council during the 1999 Legislative Session. Last year, the Metropolitan Council requested $52 million in bonding authority to fund capital improvement projects for transit services. The Legislature authorized only $36 million, leaving Metro Transit with no option except to cut some projects that had been previously approved for funding. To eliminate that deficit, House File 3530/Senate File 2935 would increase the 1999 authorization by $16 million, fulfilling the full request as submitted last year. Neither bill has received a committee hearing - House File 3530 awaits action in the House Local Government and Metropolitan Affairs Committee, while Senate File 2935 has been referred to the Transportation Committee. The STA plans to strongly support passage of this legislation, and we will keep you informed as the bills progress through the legislative process. Representative Carol Molnau (R-Chaska) and Senator Dean Johnson (DFL-Willmar) have introduced nearly identical legislation, with the only difference being that their legislation includes a general fund appropriation of $3.7 million to Metro Transit and $1 million to the Minnesota Department of Transportation for grants to public transit systems for building transit facilities and hubs. House File 3559/Senate File 3306 have also not yet received any legislative action. ':";;"i':,~Y";,~ The STA L~ls1.tlve Reøort Is prepared by Thomas J. Poul.nd hnnlfet' J.

SENATOR DICK DAY INTRODUCES "FREEDOM TO DRIVE" AGENDA Senator Dick Day (R-Owatonna) has introduced a number of bills that, taken together, represent one of his primary legislative pursuits for the 2000 Legislative Session - the Freedom to Drive Agenda (the Agenda). Senator Day's initiative includes a resumption of his assault on ramp meters and high-occupancy vehicle (HOV) lanes; a transportation-funding package; a prohibition on left-lane driving for purposes other than passing; and a bill to increase the speed limit on a portion of Interstate 35E through S1. Paul. On February 16, a hearing was held to consider his various proposals. Senate File 2480 would place a moratorium on the use of ramp meters this October. During the break, the effects turning off ramp meters would have on traffic flow and safety. Senate File 2480 was amended and approved by the Senate Transportation Committee on February 16. It now heads to the Transportation Budget Division for consideration. Senate File 2481 would open the HOV lanes on Interstates 35W and 394 to general traffic and the dedicated center lane on 1-394 would be opened to east- bound traffic during the morning rush hour and to west-bound traffic in the evening. Senate File 2481 has been referred to the Transportation Budget Division where it awaits action. You might recall that Senator Day pursued both of those proposals last session, but was defeated following testimony by MNDoT, the STA and other transportation groups. The STA will again oppose passage of these bills as they remove important incentives for transit users. Senate File 2482, the speed limit increase legislation, has already been disposed of by the Transportation Committee. At the February 16 hearing, officials from Minnesota Department ofTransportation (DOT) testified against increasing the speed limit on 1-35E through S1. Paul from 45 miles per hour to 55 miles per hour. DOT explained to the Committee that they feel boùnd by a federal court order not to raise the speed limit at this location (sometimes called a ·practice freeway· by disdainful legislators). The court order was part of a settlement reached in the 1980s between DOT and area residents opposed to the freeway. Following testimony and debate, the Committee voted against approval of Senate File 2482. Senate File 2483 is Senator Day's transportation funding proposal. He would reduce vehicle registration taxes from the current fonnula ($10 added to 1.25 percent of a vehicle's base value) to $10 plus one percent of the base value. Senator Day's bill would require the dedication of 50 percent of tab fees to the general fund and 50 percent to the highway user tax distribution fund. Finally, he is proposing a constitutional amendment that would dedicate 50 percent of the motor vehicle excise tax to the highway user tax distribution fund. This legislation was scheduled for a hearing on February 16, but no action was taken at that time. Instead, Senate File 2483 was referred to the Transportation Budget Division. 2 . Senate File 2484 would prohibit driving in the left-hand lane unless overtaking slower vehicles. Mark Rask, author of American Autobahn, testified on behalf of the bill. Mr. Rask said the bill eases stress for all drivers, as slow and fast moving vehicles work together. To illustrate how traffic would flow under such a policy, Mr. Rask showed video footage of the German Autobahn, a comparison that some Senators felt was inappropriate as there is little similarity between the rural Autobahn highway and Minnesota's urban freeways. Senate File 2484 was approved by the Committee and referred to the Transportation Budget Division. At this time, no House companion bills have been introduced for Senator Day's legislation. We will continue to monitor and update you on the progress of the Freedom to Drive Agenda. HOUSE REPUBLICANS CONTINUE ASSAULT ON LRT House Republicans, calling light rail transit (LRT) a "boondoggle," recently announced plans to repeal the nearly $100 million in bonding that has been authorized during the past two years. Last year, LRT funding was included in a bill that provided tax cuts and other funding initiatives as a compromise between the governor and legislators. House Republicans have never been overly supportive of LRT, and they recently expressed frustration with the cost of building the Hiawatha Corridor, and with the projected benefit-cost return of $0.42 for every $1.00 spent. Instead of LRT, the Republican caucus has announced that they will pursue more cost-effective alternatives such as dedicated busways. While Republicans might gamer enough votes to pass the repeal in the House, prospects of such legislation passing the Senate are much more slim, as the Democratic majority supports LRT. Furthermore, as LRT is one of Governor Ventura's favorite projects, it is unlikely that he would sign a bill calling for its repeal. No specific legislation has been introduced yet, but we will let you know when it is. GOVERNOR VENTURA'S TRANSIT INITIATIVE INTRODUCED House File 2891/Senate File 2678, authored by Representative Carol Molnau (R- Chaska) and Senator Carol Flynn (DFL-Minneapolis) is Governor Ventura's transportation and transit proposal for this session. This legislation creates a multimodal transportation fund, to which 46 percent of the motor vehicle excise tax revenue would be dedicated and utilized as follows: (1) twenty-five percent for appropriation to the metropolitan council for transit capital, operating, and associated development purposes; and 3 , (2) seventy-five percent of the revenue would be available for appropriation to the Commissioner of Transportation for statewide surface transportation purposes including, but not limited to, highways, transit capital and service expansion needs outside the metropolitan area, commuter rail capital and operating expenses, right-of-way presèrvation, grants to local units of government for comprehensive planning related to transportation investments, and other transit capital and highway purposes. This fund would supplement, not replace, existing transit and transportation revenues. For expenditures of funds from the transit account, the Metropolitan Council shall give priority to transit service expansion and transit capital projects that: (1) are consistent with the regional master transit plan and the transit capital improvement program; (2) support other public investments in infrastructure, housing, schools, and other public services; (3) encourage development that includes a mix of housing, retail, office, and open space in a pedestrian-friendly environment; and (4) respond to the needs of growing communities that actively foster transit- oriented development and work with transit providers in developing solutions to mobility needs in their localities. . As discussed in previous issues of the Legislative Update, the 54· percent dedication would require passage of a constitutional amendment by the electorate while the 46 percent dedication is statutory, a proposition that concerns some legislators. This legislation also provides for a stable and predictable bonding authorization for the Metropolitan Council. If House File 2891/Senate File 2678 becomes law, the Metropolitan Council will have an annual increase in bonding authority based upon the previous year's authority adjusted for inflation using the United States Department of Labor's Bureau of Labor Statistics Minneapolis-St. Paul Consumer Price Index for All Urban Consumers (CPI-U) for the previous taxes payable year. The annual inflationary increase will be capped at three percent. The STA is on record strongly supporting this provision. We will keep you up to date as the entire bill moves through the 2000 Legislature. 4 \ LEGISLATION OF INTEREST House File 3521 was introduced on February 16. This legislation, authored by Representative Tom Hackbarth (R-Cedar), would appropriate funding to the Metropolitan Council for express bus service between Anoka and downtown Minneapolis. House File 3521 would also provide for building a park and ride at the intersection of Highway 65 and Anoka County Highway 22. This legislation does not yet specify the amount of the appropriation. There is not yet a Senate companion bill for House File 3521. House File 3664 was introduced on February 17 by Representative Dan Larson (DFL- Bloomington). This legislation would forbid MNDoT from artificially increasing waiting periods on ramps or to encourage, influence, or force the traveling public to use alternative routes or alternative modes of transportation. This legislation is in response to complaints about increased traffic by residents in neighborhoods near freeway access points. A Senate companion bill has not been introduced for this legislation at this time. Senator Keith Langseth (DFL-Glyndon) has introduced Senate File 2283, a bill that would provide $3.7 million to the Metropolitan Council for transit services during fiscal year 2001. The STA plans to support this legislation, which has not yet received a hearing in the Transportation Committee. It also appears that Governor Ventura will be willing to support this deficiency appropriation. Representative Peg Larsen (R-Lakeland) has again introduced legislation to abolish or change the structure of the Metropolitan Council. House File 3489 would abolish the Metropolitan Council as a separate entity and transfer its duties to various existing state agencies. House File 3529 would provide legislators with greater control over the actions and policies of the Metropolitan Council by making it a state agency. This is the third session during which Representative Larsen will pursue abolition of the Metropolitan Council. She is opposed to the Metropolitan Council in large part due to her belief that it is unresponsive to legislators and operates with too much autonomy. 5 , .. Office of the Superintendent Beverly A.

Current mission and vision documents for District 112 were created about 10 years ago. Revised Mission and Vision Statement drafts were presented for feedback: DISTRICT 112'S MISSION (purpose) To educate and inspire all learners to achieve their potential throughout life VISION District 112 envisions our entire community engaged in support of learners. Together, we strive to motivate learners who attain higher levels of achievement and exemplify our Community Values of citizenship, human worth and dignity, respect for others, environmentalism, integrity, responsibility, generosity, and learning. Mixed role groups reacted to the following questions: Is it memorable, inspiring, and easily shared? What questions of understanding do you want to raise? Responses were very mixed. Seemingly, the only consensus rrom conference participants was that the proposed Mission and Vision need more work. WHAT ARE THE CRITICAL ISSUES WE FACE? Small role-alike groups identified the most important issues District 112 needs to address to achieve its vision and mission. From among a total of 48 issues, each conference participant was asked to vote on the top five. Major themes identified through this process include: · Adequate funding/wise use of resources (e.g. facilities, start time, ) · Attract, develop and retain quality staff and inspirational/visionary leaders · Curriculum alignment and accountability · Trust and cohesiveness of the district community · Equity of programs between buildings · Rapid change and growth · Focus on individual achievement · Willingness and desire to risk and change · Remaining the educational option of choice · Developing a shared vision and plan for the future · Safe and respectful learning environments · System accountability and measurement of results 3 HOW SHOULD WE PLAN TOGETHER?

I got these numbers from a report generated in Court Administration and given to me by Carol Renn. As in 1998, I broke it down by city and township and by month. The numbers reflect the cities share and our share. Per Carol Renn, the breakdown of fine revenue is as follows, the state gets 20% off the top of the total amount. The cities then get one third and the county gets two thirds of the amount. Of the amount going to the county, our office gets one half and the county gets one ha1f. As in 1998 I am unable to get the figures court administration gave me to match the number reflected in the Revenues and Expenditures Report. This could be that all figures are not in when . the Revenue report was generated. In any event if you look on page three of the printout titled Fine Revenue 1999, you will see the breakdown by city and by month. You will also see total fine revenue for 1999. I have also included a copy of the Fine Revenue for 1999 and page three from Ihe Fine Revenue 1998 report for comparison. The Revenues and Expenditures Report is generated by the county and I print it off the FPreport option.
