Loss Control Service
Proposal
Bill Hinderks
Public Sector Services
St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company
December 1999
This proposal provides guidelines and options for your organization to successfully identify, evaluate and cantrollass
exposures. The recommendations and proposed actions are guidelines and do not reflect underwriting standards established
by The St. Paul. The implementation or completion of these loss control options does not constitute an undertaking to warrant
that the Client's loss control program is appropriate or complete.
It is not our intention that this proposal, or our suggestions, cover the requirements of any safety act. or any other act or
regulation, or to imply or infer there are not other hazards and exposures in existence. The maintenance of safe premises,
operations and equipment, and the avokfance of unsafe conditions and practices is the responsibility of the Insured/CHent.
¥
St. Paul Fire and Marine Insurance Company is pleased to present you with this
Loss Control Services proposal to assist you with the systematic reduction of .
exposures in order to reduce loss related expenses and enhance delivery of
services to your citizens. To recap the loss control support provided by Public
Sector Services, the proposal includes a summary of the loss control services
delivered during the current policy period.
The Loss Control Proposal is based on historical losses experienced by your entity,
observations and services provided thus far by The St. Paul, "best practices" for
governmental entities as advocated by the Public Risk Management Association
(PRIMA), and is also based on recommendations of the National Recreation &
Parks Association (NRPA) and the American Public Works Association (APWA).
We hope that you will once again select The St. Paul as your insurance carrier and
take advantage of our value added Loss Control services. Your St. Paul Loss
Control Representative, Bill Hinderks, will work with you in taking advantage of your
opportunities for improvement by tailoring an assistance plan that supports your loss
control and risk management goals.

A weekly legislative update from the League of Minnesota Cities
Number 15
May 19, 2000
New Ulm Mayor Dies
We were saddened today to
learn that Bert SChapenkahm,
mayor of New Ulm since 1994,
died on Thursday. Bert was
one of those genuinely nIce
people who cared deeply about
his community and thoroughly
enjoyed being mayor. He will be
missed by many throughout
Minnesota.
SelVices are tentatively set for
11 a.m., Monday, May 21 at St.
Paul's Evangelical Lutheran
Church in New Ulm. Visitation is
tentatively scheduled for 4-9
p.m. Sunday and 7:30-8:30
a.m. that day and then at the
church until the service.
Session ends
The 2000 legislative session
officially came to an end on Thurs-
day morning as the House ad-
journed at 5:30 a.m. The final
legislative day was nearly a repeat
of the all-night session held last
Tuesday. Together, the 1999 and
2000 sessions became the longest
biennial session in state history.
Although the day was most notable
for the debate over a compromise
in the profiles of learning, several
other pieces of legislation that will
impact municipal operations were
approVed and sent to the governor.
Legislature overrides
governor's vetoes
On the last day of session, the
Legislature voted to override four
of the governor's line-item vetoes.
The votes resuscitated $1.5 million
for multicultural development
grams for the cities of Pelican
Rapids and St. James, $135,000
for an organ donor vehicle, $1 mil-
lion for the Lanesboro Center for
the Arts, and $3 million for the
Guthrie Theater in Minneapolis. A
vote in the House to save $30,000
for grants for drug-detecting dogs
was not successful.
other 11nal day action
On the final day, the House and
Senate passed several bills of
interest to City officials. The county
plat review bill and the public
finance bill were approved and sent
to the governor.
The plat review bill essentially
clarifies the process for city, town,
and county plats to be reviewed by
the county and state. It directs
counties to promulgate guidelines
for ingress and egress and rlght-of-
way onto county roads. In the event
there are insurmountable disagree-
ments between the city or town and
county over a particular plat's
access to county roads, the city or
town must meet with the county to
discuss the plat and the implica-
tions the plat will have on the
transportation system. The out-
come of the conversation is not
binding on the final plat approval
by the city or town.
The public finance bill contains
language authorizing the cities of
Minnetonka and Shorewood to opt
out of the metropolitan transit
service. Also included are provi-
sions related to the sale of bonds
to finance the costs of constructing,
enlarging or improving airports or
other air navigational facilities, an
extension of the special service
district law, greater authority to
issue variable-rate bonds, and
special assessment authority for
Internet access improvements.
The public finance bill also includes
a program that will guarantee
payment of certain county debt
obligations. With the state's back-
ing, a county will be able to issue
debt at a reduced interest rate.
However, the state backing comes
with state strings attached.
This provision is modeled on a law
that currently applies to certain
school district qebt. The county
program is administered by the
state public facilities authority
(PFA) and the commissioner of
finance and used to finance correc-
tional faCilities, law enforcement
facilities, social services or human
services facilities, solid waste
facilities, courthouses, administra-
tive buildings, roads, and bridges.
The county will have to enter into a
qualified agreement with the state
public facilities authority, and if
default occurs the county could
have their state aid payments
garnished or be required to in-
crease their property tax levy.
Legislative review sessions
The League IGR staff will be
conducting three legislative session
review sessions next week. We will
also be holding a review session
at the annual conference in St.
Cloud on Wednesday, June 14,
3:15- 4:45 p.m. Space is still
available in Benson and S1. Paul;
contact Mary Diedrich or Donyelle
Mikacevich at the League to
register.
For more lnformatlon on city leglslatlve Is~es, contact any member of the Leag~e of Minnesota Cltles Intergot1emmental Re/al.lons team.

MEMO
To: Nancy Mancino~þ~e; Mary Meuwissen; Cindy Monn
From: Bey stolferah~
Date: May 19, 2000
Subject: Telephone survey results
Last night, Skip Bresin, president of KV Systems COrporation, presented to the School Board the
results of the telephone survey his company developed for District 112. The survey was designed
to give the Board some indication of the values residents have In siting the middle school.
Specifically, we wondered which calTied the higher value with residents. ..siting the school in a
particUlar city in spite of higher cost or choosing a site within the dollar amount approved through
the referendum.
I have enclosed a copy of Skip's report. The last page of the report is actually a copy of the
survey itself.
It is interesting to note that more than 90% of respondents strongly agreed or agreed that "the
school district and cities should combine financial resources when possible to aeate facilities that
benefit students and the community.· I believe this is a mandate to continue our efforts to
collaborate in the interests of all students, residents and taxpayers.
The other clear result is the expectation that the District hold money from the referendum for
future school sites. Results showed that 73.3% believe that should happen. Agreement was quite
resounding In each of your communities: Chanhassen - 67,6% agreed that some money should
be set aside for future sRes: Chaska - 73.4% agreed: Victoria - 89.8% agreed; Carver - 100%
agreed,
Questions designed to reveal opinion on city sile versus lower land cost were less conclusive.
Answers to question 4 (Building schools in different cities that make up the school district is more
Important than the cost of /and.) showed that 50,9 percent disagreed; 41.7 agreed. In question 8,
(Placing new schools in cities other than Chaska should be a priority of the School Board) 46.1 %
disagreed; 45.2% agreed. In question 9, (It Is Important that e\lelY city h/J\Ie a schoof building,)
49_1 % disagreed; 45.2% agreed.
Question 10, however, did Indicate a preference for frugality when siting schools (When the
School Board is faced with two choices in locating a fI9W school, it should take the less expensive
choìce_) 51.1% agreed; 38_6% disagreed,
The School Board Will be using this data as one piece of information as it makes its decision on
where to site the 9th grade center at its Thursday, May 25 meeting, All of you are welcome to
attend. The meeting begins at 7:00 p.m. in the Board Room at the District 112 Education Center.

SCHOOL DISTRICT # 112 RANDOM SAMPLE COMMUNITY SURVEY
1. How long have you lived in school district #1121
2. Do you have any school age children attending school in district 112?
3. Do you have any pre-school children living at homc?
NOW I'D LIKE TO EXPLAIN AN ISSUE FACING THE SCHOOL BOARD
The School Board wants to purchase landfor the construction of a new 9'" grade middle
school approved by the last referendum. They planned to purchase a site in the City of
Chanhassen and also purchase other sites in the district for fumre building needs. Since the
referendum passed land costS in Chanhassen høve doubled, making it impossible to buy a site
in Chanhassen and also buy landfor future building sites.
The School Board is left with two choices: One - buy landfor the new middle school in
Chanhassen only or Two - buy less expensive land in Chaska for the middle school next to
the current high school and purchase land for future building sites.
PLEASE TELL ME IF YOU STRONGLY AGREE, AGREE, DISAGREE OR STRONGLY
DISAGREE WITH TIIE FOLLOWING STATEMENTS: <ACCEPT DON'T KNOW, BUT
DON'T OFFER AS A CHOICE)
4. Building schools in the different cities that make up the school district is more important than
the cost ofilie land.
5. The school district and cities should combine financial resources when possible to create
facilities that benefit students and the community,
! 6. The School Board should put aside some of the money approved in the last referendum to
purchase future school sites,
7. It is reasonable to spend all of the referendum dollars designated for current and future
school building sites on land for the 9th grade middle school in Chanhassen,
8. P1aci¡¡g new schools in cities other than Chaska should be a priority of the School Board.
9. It is important that every city have a school building.
10. When the school board is faced with two choices in locating a new school, it should take the
less expensive choice,
EarNer IIlis year the School Board decided to build the next elementJlry school on a site
donated to the school districtfree of charge by the City of ChasktJ. The School Board also
purchased land for a future elementJlry school in the City of Victoria.
THE SCHOOL BOARD WOULD LIKE TO KNOW IF YOU STRONGLY AGREE, AGREE,
DISAGREE OR STRONGLY DISAGREE WITH .,.
11. its decision to build a new elementary building in Chaska.
12. Why do you feel that way?

RE: Dial-A-Ride Fare Increase
Dear Mayors & Councilmembers,
Southwest Metro Transit will raise fares on Dial-A-Ride, our door-to-door service in
Chanhassen, Chaska, and Eden Prairie, to $2.50 effective June 5, 2000, It is always difficult to
raise fares because it affects the transit dependent residents the most; however, the Commission
and I believe it is the right decision based on the costs to operate the system. We look at raising
fares as the last resort when trying to make our system more efficient.
In the past year, the cost efficiency of Dial-A-Ride has improved. We are up to nearly 4.5 rides
per hour, a good number for this type of service, and we have reduced our overall subsidy per
passenger to roughly $10 - a number that at one time was nearly $17 . We have also enacted
strict policies to people who abuse the system thus opening up service for good cust(~mers.
While we have reduced the overall costs of Dial- A-Ride and improved service, there is a need for
customers to bear more of the actual costs for service. Dial-A-Ride is a premium service, much
like a cab, and we feel it is necessary to raise the fares.
Please note that while we plan to raise fares we are not turning our back on those individuals
under difficult financial hardships. Reduced/rree fare cards will be available at social service
agencies in Eden Prairie (i.e. PROP, FamiLink, & SHAPE) and we are working with social
service agencies in Carver County to minimize the affects of the fare increase.
As always, you can contact me with your questions and concerns. My number is 952-974-3101.
Thank you for your ongoing support of public transit.
Sincerely,
SOUTHWEST METRO

From:
Wayne Sames, Local Grants Section
Subject: 2000 Grant Application Round
The 2000 legislative session has ended and no additional funds were appropriated for either the
Outdoor Recreation Grant or Natural and Scenic Area Grant programs. Accordingly, we have
decided to hold this year's applications for those programs over until òext spring, when we hop_e
to receive additional funding.
Thank you for taking the time to submit an application. Based on the results of this year's
application round, the need for grant assistance for local park and open space projects remains
great. There are over $10.6 million in grant requests for Outdoor Recreation Grants alone. We
will certainly convey this information to the Legislative Commission on Minnesota Resources
(LCMR) as it begins the process <:if developing recommendations to the Legislature.
If you submitted an application this year you will not need to resubmit next year, unless you wish
to make changes. This year's applications will simply be added to whatever new applications are
received next year. For information or guidance regarding your application please contact the
Loca! Grant Manager assigned to your ccunty (see the list on the bllck of this page). If you intend
to complete your project this year, or wish to withdraw your application rrom consideration,
please let us know,
In regard to funding prospects for next year, the LCMR indicated in its Request for Proposals that
it intends to recommend at least $8.5 million for the Local Grants Initiatives programs, including
the Outdoor Recreation and Natural and Scenic Area programs. Our Local Initiative Grants
proposal to the LCMR totals $11. 3 million, with $4 million requested for the Outdoor
Recreation Grant program and $2 million for Natural and Scenic Areas. In addition, it appears
likely that Congress will authorize additional funding for the Land and Water Conservation Fund
this faiL This would provide additional funding for Outdoor Recreation Grant projects.

Dear Mr. Botcher:
CITY OF (;MI~HASSEN
I'm very happy to provide you with this year's NSP Emergency Communications Packet.
As you may be aware, I send this packet to you each year with the most current
procedures that give emergency personnel like you direct access to the NSP Control
Center, One of the key tools contained in this packet is NSP's dedicated and
proprietary phone number for emergency personnel. Through this number, you can
access the NSP control center to report emergency situations and receive estimated
time of arrival of our crews.
What's new?
NSP Public Safety Brochure and Fax Sheet
This year we have added our gas emergency number and general public information
numbers to the brochure, so you have all phone information at your fingertips.
Please remember that these phone numbers are proprietary and for
specific use by emergency personnel for emergency purposes.
The fax sheet is provided for use with faxing non-critical requests. Please feel free to
make copies of this sheet.
Laminated Business Cards
Because you let us know you need them, we've added laminated business cards to the
packet this year,
NSP Restoration Guidelines Brochure
rve included a copy of our Restoration Guidelines brochure in your packet this year.
This brochure explains NSP's restoration process, which is particularly helpful
information when power outages occur over a wide area, Oftentimes, it's helpful for the
public to understand that NSP gives top priority to any situation concerning live downed
wires or hazards to public safety, and then we repair the largest power lines, affecting
the greatest number of customers, first.
As your Community Relations Manager, I am your point of contact for status information
following severe storms, so please don't hesitate to call me. In addition, please forward
the information in this packet to the appropriate people on your staff and discard any old
emergency numbers for NSP. Thank you very much,
Sincerely,
Community Relations Manager

Restoration Guidelines
NSP has established an efficient
restoration process for restoring
power after an outage occurs, The
restoration process is based on the
electric delivery system's
components (see "NSP Electric
Delivery System" on back) with the
goal of rcstoring powcr to the
greatest number of pcople the fastest
Power plants send encrgy to
substations through high-voltage
tr;u1smis"jon liTH'S.
Major power lincs, callcd fl'l'dl'rs,
extend from the substations and
carry enough pO\\·cr to serve
thousands of customers.
From thcsc fccdcrs, NSP C\tcnds
pO\\·cr lincs call cd taps. Thc tap lincs

serve residential neighborhoods and
businesses, and carry enough
electricity to serve between 40 and
several hundred customers.
A sl'rvÌl'e wire extends from the taps
and carries electricity to individual
homcs and businesses.
Once the feeders and taps are
restored, electricity can flow to a
home or business, assuming the
scrvice wire is intact
Major lines must be repaired first,
before electricity will flow Jo
customer's homes or businesses.
By working on the largest lines first,
crews can restore service to
customers as rapidly as possible.

Press Release

Time: 1500 hours

Please put this article in the paper during the week of May 27, 2000

Sheriff Olson is concerned about Carver County higher percentages of alcohol related
traffic crashes, Does our youth have easy access to alcohol? Are we accepting, as the
nonn, underage driniking?
Each year, around prom and graduation time, several Minnesota youths are injured or
killed in traffic crashes directly related to these celebrations. In 1998 nearly 26,000
Minnesota teenage drivers were involved in traffic crashes, 8,000 of those drivers were
injured or killed,
Nearly 1,500 teenage drivers were involved in traffic crashes, in Minnesota, in 1998, after
they had been drinking. Additionally 2,850 teenager drivers in Minnesota were arrested
for having a blood alcohol concentration over the legal limit of .1 0 HAC.
Sheriff Olson is very concerned that Carver County has had a higher percentage of fatal
and personal injury alcohol related accidents when compared to the metro area and the
State of Minnesota, Contrary to popular belief, surveys show that underage drinkers, in
Carver County, obtain most of their alcohol from family and friends, If you drink and then
drive, chances are that you will be involved in a motor vehicle crash.
Besides the alcohol problem, teenagers use their seatbelts less than any other age group.
Only 16 of the 89 teenagers killed, in Minnesota in 1998, were wearing their seatbelts _
that's only 18%,
Teenagers are smart citizens, "Some of the teenagers think that a traffic crash or accident
will not happen to them," says Sheriff Bud Olson, "We know difTerently, we need the
help of our young people to take their safety seriously".
CARVER COUNTY 1.S. Fax:612-361-1582 May 26 '00 9:29 P,02/02
Sheriff Olson says "As parents, we can limit the ability of our youth to obtain alcohol.
Lets continue to protect them by limiting their access to alcohol and encouraging them to
make smart lifestyle choices".
Sheriff Bud Olson, Chaska Police Chief, Scott Knight, and funding fi:om the Minnesota
Safe & Sober Campaign will provide officers to work extra hours over the next several
weeks to identify drinking drivers. Our enforcement effort will include all traffic law
violations with special emphasis on alcohol consumption by underage drivers.

Director
The Metropolitan Mosquito Control District (MMCD) has been working to protect public health,
and make summers more enjoyable for people in your city and throughout the metropolitan area
for over 40 years.
Mosquito control techniques have evolved throughout the years to include a number of tools.
One of these tools is adult mosquito control using the materials resmethrin or permethrin. Adult
mosquito control will take place rrom time to time within your jurisdiction when samples show a
mosquito-borne disease threat, or when levels of mosquitoes interfere with public events or
citizens' outdoor activities.
MMCD operates a pre-recorded adult information line. You can call (651) 643-8383 and find out
where adult mosquito control is scheduled anywhere within the metro area. This information is
updated daily, and is also available through MMCD's web site: www.mmcd.org.
For more information, or to discuss other notification options, call Jim Stark at 651-643-8363.

Recognition of Outgoing Student Representatives
Amir Gharbi and Bruce Le have served as student representatives to the District 112 School
Board for the past year. Bruce and Amir will both be graduating rrom Chaska High School
on 6/9/00. The Board would like to thank Amir and Bruce for their service.
East Union Elementary Land Encroachment Agreement
Administration and legal counsel recommend approval of the sale of 1400 square feet of
land located at the southwest corner ofthe East Union Elementary School property to Clark
G. and Beverly L. Bandimere (adjacent neighbors) in consideration of payment in the
amount of $500. This agreement is necessary in order to resolve a property line
encroachment problem identified by a previous land survey. Carver County has previously
notified the District that County records indicate a final certificate of title was never
recorded for the East Union property. Upon acceptance of this agreement, the District will
be able to proceed in completing the process of obtaining final and clear title to the East
Union School Property. (Refer to May 5, 2000, memorandum rrom school attorney,
Patrick J. Flynn.)
Award of Fiber Plant Bid
Administration recommends awarding the bid for the Technology Outside Fiber Plant
Project to Applied Business Communications on the basis of low bid. This is an approved
project from the 1999 referendum.
Approval of Food Service Contract, FYOl & FY02
Administration recommends the approval of the negotiated contract between the District
and Food Service Staff effective July 1,2000 through June 30, 2002.
Approve FYOO Auditor
Administration recommends continued contract with Malloy, Montague, Karnowski,
Radosevich and Co., P A (MMKR), public school auditors, for the audit of the general
purpose financial statements for the year ending June 30, 2000 (FYOO). The audit will
include the schedule of expenditures of federal awards, combining and individual fund
statements, and statistical information. The audit cost is recommended at $23,3000 plus
direct expenses. (Refer to May 8, 2000, MMKR letter of agreement.)
Appointment of Student Representatives to School Board for 2000-01
Chairperson Kelly Yon De Bur, Assistant Principal Mike Werner, and Bruce Le (one of the
current student representatives) interviewed four candidates who expressed an interest in
serving as student representative to the School Board. Weare pleased to recommend
current sophomore Laura Watkins and current junior Damn Schulte for 2000-2001 School
Board Student Representatives.
Item 6.2 Select Middle School Site
The School Board will review three final sites for the location of the grade 9 new middle
school as authorized by the November 2, 1999, bond referendum. The sites ·remaining are:
Site 1, 67-acre site in Chanhassen along County Road 17; Site 2, 27-acre Chaska Pioneer
Park and 12.5-acre Pulte Home expansion of current Chaska High School; Site 3, 15-38-
acre site by Lake Ann in Chanhassen. Board action will select site and authorize
Superintendent to purchase said site for the placement of the new middle school established
by the November 2, 1999, bond referendum.
Item 6.3 Pulte Home Land Purchase
The School Board will consider expansion of the current Chaska High School 83-acre site
by 8.3 acres or 12.5 acres, as determined by the middle school site decision. In both
options, the City of Chaska will contribute approximately four acres as park land dedication
with new facilities to be administered under the existing Joint Powers Agreement.
Administration recommends purchase of approximately four acres of Pulte Homes'
property if the middle school is not sited on Pioneer Park and the purchase of
approximately eight acres if the middle school is sited on Pioneer Park. Either scenario
will require expenditure rrom the "future land" Fund 6 budget.
Item 6.4 Recommendation on School Start Times
Information on the latest school start time option has been distributed to all parents through
the "brown envelope" in the elementary and a direct mailing at the secondary and has been
posted on our web site. These channels invite response. We are also meeting with non-
public school administrators to discuss this option. When we have received and compiled
responses, we will be able to formulate a recommendation for Board action on 5/25.
Item 6.5 New Elementary Building Budget
A building steering committee, Principal June Johnson, construction team members, and
KKE architects have been designing and cost estimating the new elementary school
scheduled to open Fall, 2001. Due to a significant increase in construction costs (14% over
the last year), considerable design work has been necessary to contain costs, Our latest cost
estimate is still significantly over budget. Ifwe are to redesign again, we will not be able to
move construction forward rapidly enough to open the building in the fall of 2001.
Administration recommends Option Four (see attached May 22, 2000, Johnson-Meyer
memo), The recommendation makes significant design changes and applies $500,000
elementary land budget to construction, Also, $300,000 to be transferred rrom the Repair
and Betterment Indoor Air Quality project(s) to the new elementary building indoor air
quality mechanical systems,
Item 6.6 Establish FYOl Budget Public Hearing Date
In anticipation of the schedule for FYO 1 budget approval and pursuant to past practice, an
FY01 Budget Hearing is recommended for 6:30 p.m., Thursday, June 8, 2000. The Board
may reconsider this hearing as the public has not participated in this opportunity over the
last several years.

· City Leaders Involved Since March
· Criteria Adopted by School Board in March
The site selected should be the best
match for needs of District 112¡ and
+Within the last budget established in
the November 2, 1999 referendum

ADDITIONAL TIME?
If the final decision to select, negotiate and
purchase a site is delayed beyond, May 25,2000,
the abi.lity to construct and open a middle school
in the Fall of 2002 is seriously threatened.
If the May 25th decision is to study the issues
further~ the following impacts will be encountered:
1. The July 1, 1999 Review and Comment
student population data and available
facilities demonstrate that grades 6,7,8,9
cannot be educated at current class size
ratios in the Fall 2002 WITHOUT additional
classrooms and core facility.
2. Land costs within MUSA are anticipated to
continue at a high rate of increase.

NEW CASE ON 60-DAY RULE:
CITY OF CHANHASSEN
Court takes strict view
The Demolition Landfill case
Recently the Court of Appeals handed down a decision interpreting the 60-day statute. The Court
held that a conditional use permit application for a landfill in Duluth was deemed approved because
the City did not properly act within the deadline.
The Court's decision focused on a part of the 60-day statute: the provision that requires that written
reasons for the City's denial be given by the City in writing "at the time that it denies the request."
The Court indicated that this provision will be interpreted literally. If the City decides to deny an
application, the reasons for the decision must be given at the same meeting at which the City denies
the application. A two-step approval process which many cities were using will apparently not be
acceptable. Under that approach, cities gave a conceptual approval or denial at one meeting, and
then adopted findings supporting the decision at a later meeting.
Two alternatives
How can cities comply with the 60-day rule in light of the latest guidance from the Court? There
are two alternatives,
First, the City Councilor Planning Commission may have the staff prepare alternative sets of
findings, with one set supporting approval of the application and one set supporting denial. At the
meeting, the body may want to take a brief recess if necessary to give the city staff or attorney an
opportunity to integrate into the appropriate findings any additional grounds for the decision based
on evidence presented at the meeting.
Under a second approach, the City Council would adopt a resolution directing the staff or city
attorney to prepare findings denying the application. The Council would avoid making any motion
actually denying the application at that time. At a later meeting, the City Council would deny the
application and adopt the findings. In this way, the City would not actually deny the application
until the findings were prepared.
More information on the Demolition Landfill case and on the 60-day rule is available on the
Kennedy & Graven website (www.kennedv-graven.com). If you have questions, contact your
city attorney, or contact Karen Cole at 612/337-9212 or kcole@kennedy-graven.com.

Top Met Council official to retire
The Metropolitan Council's top
staff person, Regional Administra-
tor Jim Solem, announced his retire-
ment yesterday at a Council meeting.
"It's been fun," Solem said. "There's
no other organization like the Metro-
politan Council anywhere else in the
U.S. I'm going to miss the day-to-day
engagement of interesting and fasci-
nating discussions."
Solem came to the Met Council in
1994 and oversaw the merger of the
two divisions of the Met Council -- The
Regional Transit Commission (RTC)
and·the Waste Water Commission.
"Mergers are difficult on people and
on organizations," he said. "I couldn't
have done without the support of the
governing body and my wonderful
staff."
Solem wiil continue to work in a
part-time capacity with the Met
Council until January 2001. in that
time, he wiil work on some special
projects, including writing down his
knowledge and observations about the
region in an articie entitled, "Minnesota
Approach."
Jay Lindgren, currentiy the Met
Councll's·chief counsel, will serve as the
interim regional administrator untii a
replacement is hired.
Met Council Chair Ted Mondale said
that Solem wiil be missed and that he
"brought this agency respect" during his
tenure at the Council.
Met Council seeks AMM's opinion on wastewater rates
The Metropolitan Council adopted a
rate schedule for wastewater
treatment yesterday.
For the calendar year 2001, the rate
is $118 per 100,000 gallons compared
to the current annual rate of $120. The
rate is projected to be $118 in 2002
and then rise to $130 by 2006.
Councilmembers Roger Williams
and Todd Paulson, who are also former
locai elected officials, questioned if
cities would prefer a rate that is more
stable and increases at a slower rate
than the adopted rate.

JUN 0 5 2000
a1Y Of CHANH^;¡;;'t.I~
Dear City Official:
At its May 4, 2000 meeting, the LMC Board of Directors voted to recommend
maximum membership dues increases of 3%, 5% and 5% for the next three years. The Board
will determine the actual amount, including for 2001, when it approves the League's budget each
August, but it cannot exceed the maximums allowed in the dues schedule,
The dues schedule must be approved by the membership at the Annual Meeting which
will begin at 12:45 p.rn. on Thursday, June 15 in the Glenn Carlson Hall of the St. Cloud
Civic Center as part of the Annual Conference.
Enclosed is a "Q&A" sheet that provides more detail on the Board's reasoning behind its
recommendation, some additional background information, and the maximum dues schedules
recommended for fiscal years 2001, 2002 and 2003.
If you have any comments or questions about this recommendation, I encourage you to
contact me at 651-281-1205 or jmiller@lrnnc.org in advance of the Annual Conference, or you
may also raise any concerns at the Annual Meeting in St. Cloud.
Sincerely,
r'¡fY!~
James F. Miller
Executive Director

Constitutional Amendment for Membership Consideration
2000 Annual Business Meeting
Amendment: Maximum 3% dues increase for the 2001 fiscal year, and a
maximum 5% .dues increase for fiscal years 2002 and 2003.
Why is the LMC Board of Directors recommending these levels of dues increases, and why a
three-year package?
The Resources and Services Task Force, a membership committee, recently reviewed service needs, revenue
sources and the dues structure, The Task Force determined additional service needs in several areas,
particularly in moving toward 24-hour access to League resources, greater on-line provision of services, and
enhancing our advocacy efforts through contracted services, The Board agreed with the Task Force's
findings and is recommending a multiple-year dues increase to allow the Board and staff the ability to
develop multi-year strategies to meet these service needs.
How can my city expect to benefit from these dues increases?
As in past years, the majority of the dues increases would go toward ensuring the maintenance of current
products and services, as well as excellent customer service through retention of a high-quality staff. A 1%
dues increase roughly equals a 1 % increase in salary and benefits, so most of a dues increase goes toward
meeting normal cost ofliving salary and benefit adjustments.
The recommended maximum dues increases above current inflation are designed to address priorities
identified in the new 2000-03 Strategic Plan, the majority of which were also identified by the Task Force.
For example, one of the major new goals of the Strategic Plan is to maximize the potential of technology to
connect cities to the League and to their constituents. This will involve making the LMC Web site a model
communications vehicle, working to ensure all Minnesota cities have a high level ofInternet access,
facilitating establishment of an effective Web presence for all member cities, and providing on-line
opportunities for member participation. We expect that these initiatives will require a significant investment
over the next three years. Other priorities the Board has identified are contracted lobbying support to deal
with the major legislative initiatives, enhanced assistance in the Research and Inquiry service, and the
Building Q.uali!y Communities public education campaign (which we expect to have a two-year lifespan).
Has a three-year plan for maximum dues increases been done before?
Yes, for fiscal years 1997, 1998 and 1999, which were maximum increases of 2%, 3% and 3% respectively.
What does a "maximum" dues increase mean? Don't you use the full amount anyway?
Not necessarily, Dues increases approved by the membership at the Annual Meeting are always maximum
dues increases, where the Board is given the flexibility to set dues up to the level approved, Most recently, in
1998, the Board implemented 2% of a 3% authorization received from the members in 1996.
(more)
How would these lDaximmn dues increases impact my city's dues?
If the maximum increases are approved, annual dues would increase by the foUowing amounts (assuming
average statewide population growth):
2000-01 (3%)
$10 for a city of 1,000
$69 for a city of2,500
$241 for a city of! 0,000
$755 for a city of 50,000
2001-02 & 2002-03 (5%)
$43 for a city of 1,000
$100 for a city of 2,500
$350 for a city of 10,000
$1,096 for a city of50,000
What is the recent history of dues increases?
For the past ten years (starting with FY2000), 5%, 3%, 2%, 2%, 3%, 0%, 0%, 0%, 0%, and 0%,

the Livable Communities Act, the Metropolitan Land Planning Act, housing policies and
others because AMM had specific, well-defined policy and persistent presentation. This must
continue, and only through active participation by all city officials can decisive, insightful
and well-reasoned positions on critical metro issues be developed and achieved.
Thank you in advance for your participation. Regardless of wlletfieror not you are

--------------------------------------------------------
Todd Gerhardt, Assistant City Manager, of the City ofChanhassen being duly sworn,
makes Complaint to the above-named Court and says that he believes this information and other
persons rrom whom it is obtained, to be reliable and that there is probable cause to believe that
the above-named Defendant committed the offense(s) described below. The Complainant states
that the following facts establish probable cause:
On September 11, 1998, the City directed a letter to the attention of JERRY
FRANKLIN, DOB: unknown, the defendant herein, stating that the parcel ofland located at
1501 Flying Cloud Drive in the City ofChanhassen, County of Carver, State of Minnesota
(Subject Property) may not be developed without receiving approval of a conditional use
permit, pursuant to Section 20-351 of the City Code. The defendant had begun construction of
m.ckeshift buildings without conforming to Building Code requirements. On December 27,
¡ 999, the City sent a letter outlining the requirements for the Subject Property as discussed in a
meeting with the defendant on December 21, 1999. The letter indicated that the debris at the
Subject Property is considered a nuisance and is in violation of Chapter 13 of City Code, and
that an inspection of the property would be performed on February 11,2000 to determine what
debris and structures must be removed rrom the Subject Property,
On February 11,2000, an inspection of the Subject Property was conducted which
revealed tires, barrels, wood scraps, metal objects, and wooden pallets stored on the property.
On February 15,2000, a compliance letter was sent to the defendant notifying him of the
violations to City Code and advising him to clean up the debris around the property.
'City ofChanhassen vs. JERRY FRANKLIN
Page 2
On March 1, 2000, the City sent a letter to the defendant outlining the following
violations to City Code and requiring the defendant to correct the violations by April 15, 2000:
1, The "bivouac" is an illegal structure and must be removed,
2. The "fire place" room is an illegal structure and must be removed.

5, All structures must comply with building code requirements.
6. Any development within the flood plain requires City Council approval of a
Conditional Use Permit.
7. Buildings that comply with building and zoning code requirements may be

necessary corrections to the City Code violations.
Chanhassen City Code Section 20-909 - Outdoor Storage, prohibits outdoor storage in the manner
that it is being conducted on the Subject Property. The defendant's failure to correct the conditions
constitutes a violation of the Zoning Ordinance of the City ofChanhassen.

Chanhassen City Code Section 20-92 - Certificate of Occupancy, requires that an application for a
certificate of occupancy be made to the City as part of the building permit. The defendant's
occupancy of two structures without obtaining a certificate of occupancy constitutes a violation of
the Zoning Ordinance ofthe City ofChanhassen.
Chanhassen City Code Section 20-94 - Grading and Erosion Control Plan, requires that a
saLsfactory erosion control and grading plan be approved by the City Engineer before a building
penrut is issued for construction. The defendant's failure to obtain approval of a grading and
erosion control plan constitutes a violation of the Zoning Ordinance of the City of Chanhassen.
Chanhassen City Code Section 20-107 - Site and Building Plan, requires that a site and building
pIan approval be obtained before a building or accessory structure is constructed or expanded. The
defendant's failure to obtain a site and building plan approval constitutes a violation of the Zoning

building, structure or land, prior to the change of a nonconforming use, and prior to the placement
of fill or excavation or materials within a flood plain. The defendant's failure to obtain a
conditional use permit constitutes a violation of the Zoning Ordinance of the City ofChanhassen.

Chanhassen Garden Club
On Thursday evening, May 25, the Chanhassen Garden Club planted a number of
downtown garden sites. In total there were five sites: two by the library, two in
medians at either end of town and one in front of the Chanhassen sign across rrom
the Dinner Theaters. Site preparation was completed by the Park and Rec. Dept.
and the weeding will be taken care of by the Garden Club. The city is requiring
that the Garden Club wear safety vests when weeding the medians. Please take a
look at these sites when you're in the area, they are wonderful.
