RE: Public Protection Classification Results
Chanhassen, Carver & Hennepin Counties, MN
Dear Mayor Furlong:
We wish to thank you and the other community officials for your cooperation during our recent
Public Protection Classification (PPC) survey. ISO is the leading supplier of statistical,
underwriting, and actuarial information for the property/casualty insurance industry. Most
insurers use the PPC classifications for underwriting and calculating premiums for residential,
commercial and industrial properties.
ISO has completed its analysis of the structure fire suppression delivery system provided in your
community. We would like to report that the resulting classification is a Class 5/9.
Congratulations on your commitment to serve the needs of your community's property owners
and residents.
ISO will advise its subscribing insurers of this classification change within the next 30-days and
assign an effective date of February 1, 2005. This date allows insurers the necessary lead time to
incorporate the Public Protection Classification change into their policy rating systems.
If you would like to know how your community's classification could improve, or if you would
like to learn about the potential effect of proposed changes to your fire suppression delivery
system, please call us at the phone number listed below.
The PPC program is not intended to analyze all aspects of a comprehensive structure fire
suppression delivery system program. It is not for purposes of determining compliance with any
state or local law, nor is it for making recommendations about loss prevention or life safety.
If you have any questions about your Classification, please let us know.
Very truly yours,
p~ p~ ~'f)eµ,
(800) 930-1677 Ext. 62Õ9 ;J;¿i!

THE ISO PUBLIC PROTECTION CLASSIFICATION (PPC) PROGRAM
ISO's PPC program evaluates communities according to a uniform set of criteria defined in the
Fire Suppression Rating Schedule (FSRS). This criteria incorporates nationally recognized
standards developed by the National Fire Protection Association and the American Water Works
Association.
Using the FSRS, ISO objectively reviews the fire suppression capabilities of a community and
assigns a Public Protection Classification - a number from 1 to 10. Class 1 represents exemplary
fire protection, and Class 10 indicates that the area's fire suppression program does not meet
minimum recognition criteria.
The FSRS allocates credit by evaluating the following three major features:
· Fire alarm and communication system. This review accounts for 10% of the total
classification which centers upon a community's facilities and support for handling and
dispatching fire alarms.
· Fire department. This review accounts for 50% ofthe total classification which focuses
upon items such as engine companies, ladder or service companies, distribution of fire
stations and fire companies, equipment carried on apparatus, pumping capacity, reserve
apparatus, department manning, and training.
· Water supply system. This review accounts for 40% ofthe total classification
highlighting the water supply a community uses for fire suppression, including hydrant
size, type, and installation, as well as the inspection frequency and condition of fire
hydrants.
When ISO develops a single classification for a community, all of the community's properties
receive that classification. In many communities, ISO develops a split classification (for
example, 5/9). Generally, the first class, (Class 5 in the example) applies to properties within a
defined distance (5-road miles in most states) of a fire station and within 1000 feet of a fire
hydrant. The second class (Class 9 in the example) applies to properties beyond 1000 feet of a
hydrant but within the defined distance of a fire station. ISO generally assigns Class 10 to
properties beyond the defined distance of a fire station.

Subject Plat Monitoring Program - 2003 Data
Districts, Members All
Prepared by Robin Caufman, AICP, Senior Planner (651-602-1457)

Mark Vander Schaaf, Dir. Planning & Growth Management (651-602-1441)
Division/Department Community Development! Local Planning Assistance
PROPOSED ACTION
This is an information only item.
BACKGROUND
In 2001, the Council initiated, with input from the Builders Association of the Twin Cities (BATC) and
the Association of Metropolitan Municipalities (AMM), a program for monitoring residential plats in 12
developing communities, known as the plat monitoring program. The objective is to provide an
annual report on residential development in developing communities, including average density and
mix of residential development, number of units platted, and amount of land developed.
The initial 12 volunteer communities included Blaine, Chanhassen, Eden Prairie, Hugo, Inver Grove
Heights, Lakeville, Maple Grove, Ramsey, Savage, Shakopee, Waconia, and Woodbury. In 2002,
the City of Farmington replaced the City of Waconia and the City of Uno Lakes was added as a
condition of the Council's review of the 2020 Comprehensive Plan Update. Several cities, including
Andover, Medina, Rogers, and Victoria, were added in 2003 as a condition of Metropolitan Urban
Service Area (MUSA) expansion comprehensive plan amendments. Participating communities
rovide a co of a roved residential lats and com lete an annual summa worksheet.
- --- -------
OVERVIEW
The 2003 report provides information about urban residential developments approved including
acres platted, units approved, and resulting net density for sixteen of the forty-five Developing
communities, including Andover, Blaine, Chanhassen, Farmington, Hugo, Inver Grove Heights,
Lakeville, Uno Lakes, Maple Grove, Medina, Ramsey, Rogers, Savage, Shakopee, Victoria, and
Woodbury. This report analyzes the data of 107 plats resulting in 9,613 housing units and finds that
overall these participating communities continue to develop (1) at densities greater than 3 units/acre
and (2) with more multifamily than single family units.
SUMMARY
Following is a summary of the 2003 plat monitoring data:
· Participating communities: 16 of the 45 Developing communities (36%)
· Number of Plats: 107 plats.
· Number of Acres Platted: 2,929 acres.
· Number of Units Platted: 9,613 units.
· Average net density of plats: 3.3 units/acre.
· Housin mix: 44% sin Ie family and 56% multifamily.

Density
The annual reports from 2000-2003 show that on average these communities continue to develop at
greater than 3 units/acre (Table 1), The average net density of the plats approved in 2003 was 3.3
units/acre.

2000 ·é~OØ2t
Net Density 4.6 3,8 3.7 3.3
Gross Density 3.1 2.7 2,2 2.6
. Net density includes developable land, excluding wetlands, natural resources protected by ordinances, public parks and arterial
road right-ot-way
Housing and Development Mix
In 2003, 56% of the units were multifamily and 44% were single family homes (Table 2). Table 4
(attached) summarizes the residential mix between 2000-2003 by community.

Comprehensive Plans Consistency
Table 3 shows that the total number of units approved as a result of these 107 plats, falls midway between
the lowest allowed density and highest allowed density, based on the corresponding land use designation
and allowable density range,
"Lowest Allowed Density" was calculated by summing the numbers of units anticipated if all 2,929 acres
were platted at the lowest allowed density, according to the local comprehensive plan and land use
designation, Similarly, "Highest Allowed Density" was calculated by summing the numbers of units
anticipated if all 2,929 acres were platted at the highest density by the comprehensive plan and land use
designation.

Table 4 summarizes the acres platted, units platted and resulting average net density of development, for
each community and shows that these numbers vary by year. However, for those communities that have
participated in the program since 2000, the data shows that all but one of these communities are
developing at an average net density of 3 or greater units/acre.

Dear Mr, Gerhardt,
I am writing on behalf of the 2005 Carver County Elected Officials Leadership Program Design Team to share with you
our plans for the 2005 Carver County Elected Official Leadership Program. The focus of this year's program is "Leadership: Acting
Together around our Carver County Vision". Our first session is Wednesday, January 26th,
"Vision to Action: Begin Work on Six Current Issues & their Alignment with Our Vision". Enclosed is a copy of the invitation from County
Board Chair James Ische and program overview sent to your elected officials, We invite you to attend any of the sessions this year.
Specific goals for this year's Leadership Program are to:
. learn about and discuss potential action around six priority issues and their aliqnment with the Countv vision, The priority
issues include: Growth and Transportation. Economic Development. Collaboration. Aqina Population. Lifelonq Learninq
and Lifecvcle Housinq,
. discuss and support cooperative efforts across the county,
The focus of our time will be spent in the above six issue groups researching the latest data and discussing their alignment around a
county vision, We invite your local government to be represented on as many of the issue groups as there is interest. We will
continue to bring all groups together in 3-4 sessions throughout the year for reporting and to explore how "The Impact of Changing
Demographics" and "Ethical Decision-Making" will impact the issues, We will also continue to have the annual bus tour in June. The
content for this year continues to build on the outcomes of the 2003 October Oak Ridge County Elected Summit and our 2004 work
of developing a County vision.
The Leadership Program is sponsored and planned by a design team of Carver County elected leaders representing various local
elected councils and boards across the county with the University of Minnesota Extension Service, Carver County and Ridgeview
Medical Center.
Many of you had councilor board members participate in one or more of the 2004 Carver County Elected Officials Leadership Program
Sessions, It is our goal that those that attend share the information with the remaining councilor board members as well as staff, We
would ask that you discuss this at an upcoming meeting and encourage their attendance. They may register by calling the
University of Minnesota Extension Office in Carver County at 952-442-4496 or email at carver@extension.umn.edu.
Enclosed is an overview that further describes the 2005 program and the January 26th session, including location, tentative future
dates and design team members,
The Carver County Elected Officials Leadership Design Team thanks you for your support in 2005 and looks forward to the opportunity
to learn and discuss together the challenging issues facing Carver County Elected Officials, We hope to see you at one of our 2005
sessions. Feel free to give one of the Design Team Members or myself a call for more information or questions,
Sincerely,
~~

Plaintiff,
COMPLAINT
v.
City of Chanhassen, a Minnesota
municipal corporation,
Defendant.
-------------------------------------------------------
For its complaint against defendant City of Chanhassen (the "City"), plaintiffs PCH
Development, L.L.c. ("PCH") states and alleges as follows:
THE PARTIES
1. PCH is a Minnesota limited liability company located at 10500 Great Plains
Boulevard, Chanhassen, Minnesota 55318.
2. The City of Chanhassen is a Minnesota municipal corporation located at 77 00
Market Boulevard, Chanhassen, Minnesota 55317.
BACKGROUND FACTUAL ALLEGATIONS
3. PCH is the fee owner of the real property located at 10500 Great Plains Boulevard
in Chanhassen, Minnesota ("Subject Property").
4. The Subject Property is located in a district zoned Fringe Business by the City.
Upon the Subject Property PCH operates a business boarding animals.
5. On September 23, 1996, the City approved a Site Plan Review submitted by PCH
for the construction of a 8,152 square-foot commercial stable and 12,936 square-foot commercial
kennel. The City also approved a conditional use permit to allow a commercial kennel and
commercial stable in a Fringe Business District, and conditional use permit to allow more than
one principal building on a single lot. The City also approved the variance for the stable building
being built of metal construction, and denied a variance for the kennel building being of metal
construction and approved a pylon sign in a Fringe Business District.
6. On March 13,2003, PCB filed a Development Review Application
("Application") with the City ofChanhassen. The Application was received by the City on
March 14,2003. The Development Review Application requested a subdivision/lot split to split
the stable and kennel areas into two lots. A true and correct copy of the Application is
incorporated herein and attached hereto as Exhibit A.
7. On July 14, 2003, the City Council approved the Preliminary Plat for a two lot
subdivision. The Preliminary Plat submitted by PCB was approved subject to several conditions.
One of these conditions required PCB to pay a $20,160.00 park dedication fee charged against
Lot 1, Block 1 as part of the recording of the final plat. A second condition required PCR to pay
Surface Water Management fees in the amount of $12,179.00 at the time of final plat recording.
8. Prior to, during, and after the City Council meeting on July 14, 2003, at which the
preliminary plat, which included the park dedication fee and surface water management fees,
was approved, PCB has objected, orally and in writing, to the fees as unreasonable given the
nature and use ofthe Subject Property.
9. PCB objected to the park dedication fee as excessive, given there is no demand on
the City's park system as a result ofthe subdivision. A single family lot in the Fringe Business
District, which creates more demand on the City's park system, pays $2,800.00 in park fees.
2.
10. PCR objected to the surface water management fees as excessive because the
Subject Property is not connected to the City's stormwater system and in fact, PCR had already
been required to construct stormwater ponds to manage its stormwater on site, which it
constructed and continues to maintain as its own expense.
11. Minnesota Statute Section 462.353, subd. 4a, states that fees must be fair,
reasonable, and proportionate and have a nexus to the actual cost ofthe service for which the fee
is imposed. Minnesota Statute Section 462.358, subd. 2c(a) states:
There must be an essential nexus between the fees or dedication
imposed under subdivision 2b and the municipal purpose sought to
be achieved by the fee or dedication. The fee or dedication must
bear a rough proportionality to the need created by the proposed
subdivision or development.
12. Neither the park dedication fee, nor the surface water management fee is fair,
reasonable, and proportionate, nor do the fees have a nexus to the actual cost of the service for
which the fees are imposed.
13. On July 13, 2004, the Final Plat Application for the Subject Property was
submitted to the City.
14. On November 22,2004, the Final Plat Application came before the City Council
for approval. The City Council approved the Final Plat Application, subject to several
conditions. Two of the conditions were: a) PCR pay a $20,160.00 park dedication fee charged
against Lot 1, Block 1 as part ofthe recording of the final plat; and b) PCR pay $13,200.00 in .
total Surface Water Management fees. These fees were to be due upon the recording of the final
plat.
15. PCR has satisfied all other conditions needed for the Final Plat Application.
16. Since the approval ofthe Final Plat Application, subject to several conditions, the
City has refused to agree to the escrow ofthe fees in dispute. PCR has, however, asked for leave
3.
of the Court, pursuant to Minn. R. Civ. P. 67, to allow for deposit of funds equal to the fees
necessary to record the final plat, with the Carver County Court Administration.
COUNT I
STATUTORY VIOLATION
17. PCH incorporates by reference paragraphs 1 through 16 into this count.
18. PCH brings this action pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Sections 462.353, 462.358,
and 462.361 for de novo review of the City's assessment of a park dedication fee in the amount
of$20,160.00 and surface water management fees in the amount of$13,200.00. Pursuant to
Minnesota Statute § 462.358, subd. 2c (c), PCH has put the City on written notice of a dispute
over the fees, deposited the fees in escrow, and now commences this action within 60 days of the
approval of the application. PCH has exhausted all remedies available under Minnesota Statutes
Sections 462.251 to 462.364.
19. As a direct and proximate cause of this statutory violation, PCH has suffered
damages in a presently unascertained amount, but an amount which will be proven at trial.
COUNT II
DECLARATORY JUDGMENT
20. PCH incorporates by reference paragraphs 1 through 19 into this count.
21. The cause of action is brought pursuant to Minn. Stat. § 551.01, et seq. for
declaratory and injunctive relief seeking a determination of this court that the City has
unlawfully violated the Ordinance and an order for the court declaring the par~ dedication fee
and surface water management fees unlawful.
22. There exists a justiciable controversy between the parties requiring the
intervention of the court with respect the imposition of the park dedication fee and surface water
management fees.
4.
23. PCH is entitled to a declaratory judgment that the park dedication fee and the
surface water management fee are illegal, unenforceable, and violation of Minn. Stat. §§ 462.353
and 462.358, subd. 2c(a).
COUNT III
MANDATORY INJUNCTION
24. PCH incorporates by reference paragraphs 1 through 23 intQ this count.
25. PCH has fulfilled all of its statutory requirements for the release of the final plat
by the City and the release ofthe final plat will not cause any unfair or unreasonable hardship,
and monetary damages alone cannot make PCH whole.
26. PCH is entitled to a mandatory injunction directing the City to release the final
plat to PCH for recording.
COUNT IV
NOTICE PURSUANT TO MINN. R. CIV. P. 67
27. PCH incorporates by reference paragraphs 1 through 26 into this count.
28. Pursuant to Minn. R. Civ. P. 67(a), PCH hereby gives notice to all parties of its
intent, upon leave of the court, to deposit with the court, $33,360.00, an amount equal to fees in
dispute and which the City claims are necessary to record the final plat.
WHEREFORE, PCH respectfully requests judgment from the Court as follows:
1. Granting and awarding PCH Development, L.L.C. a money judgment against the
City for its violation of Minnesota Statutes in an amount in excess of
$50,000.00, as well as interest, costs, disbursements, and attorneys' fees;
2. Declaring that City's condition of the recording of the final plat on a park
dedication fee of$20,160.00 and surface water management fees in the amount of
$13,200.00 was in error.
3. That PCH Development, L.L.C. be granted a mandatory injunction ordering the
release of the final plat; and
5.
4. Granting such other and further relief as the Court deems just and equitable.

Filing Lawyer/Party - Plaintiffs
Description of the Challenge
The Minnetonka School District has provided an outstanding program to
students in the community, and in the past two years virtually all indicators
have illustrated that student performance has improved dramatically. The
Board has created a powerful Vision for the future and a Strategic Plan to
accomplish the Vision. The federal and state governments have bothad.ded
significant expectations for all districts. The District has received some of
the lowest increases in funding over the past decade of any district in the
state and, frankly, in, the country. This has impeded the progress built on
the Vision, but it has not stopped us from making major advances because
of our capacity and response to the Vision. Funding has, however, now
become a serious problem in reaching higher levels of performance and has·
impacted our ability to maintain the broad program in place for years.
The balance sheets on pages 8 and 9 describe the depth of the problem. It
is clear that the District faces a $3,506,030 shortfall in revenue from the
state next year that could grow to as much as $6,225,816 for 2006-07 if
- adjustments are not made in the 2005-06 budget. Therefore, the Board has
directed the Superintendent to provide recommendations for adjustments
in the 2005-06 budget of at least $3,200,000. This document provides the
specific recommendations and supportive data an-d details.
The evolution of the financial challenge facing the District, and many other
Metro districts, is described below:
State Funding:
Policy decisions for funding Minnesota public schools are made in St. Paul by the governor and
legislature. The state, based upon a complex set of formulas, determines the amount of revenue each
district will receive including the maximum amount of referendum revenue a local district can
request from voters.
State funding formulas for Minnesota school districts have not been increased by the legislature
since 2002-03, with some actually reduced. In fact, approximately $800,000 in promised special
education -reimbursement for costs already paid is being withheld bècause the state has determined
that it cannot afford to fund the school districts throughout the state. As a result, Minnetonka ISD
#276, along with most Minnesota school districts, face budget shortfalls (or Fiscal Year 2006.
Minnetonka, in spite of prior year budget adjustments limiting operating cost increases and a
successful 2002 referendum, must reduce 2005-06 operating costs by $3.2 million.
2
No Relationship Between Tax Base and Revenue:
Each year the value of the local tax base grows. However, because state funding for schools,
including the operating referendum, is based upon a variety of state determined per pupil funding
formulas, growth in the tax base generates no new General Fund operating revenùe. The formulas
do not generate revenue based upon a tax rate. As a result, there ¡sno connection between the
amount of General Fund money available to operate the School District and the tax base.
Furthermore, individual property taxes for schools do not increase just because values go up. There
is no more money for the schools and there is no increase in actual taxes just because of valuation
increases. A 13.5% increase in the 2005 tax base resulted in zero new dollars for the General Fund
operations. The· assessed market value of many homes in the District increased by 15% for 2005.
That increase in value did not generate one dollar of new General Fund operating revenue for the
District.
As a result, local elected school boards have no meaningful authority to make a tax levy decision that
will impact General Fund operating revenue. All that remains for school boards to decide is how to
spend the funds allocated by the state or approved by vóters. About the only revenue decision
available to a local school board, if the district is below the referendum cap, is to submit a
referendum to the voters.
Why is there a Budget Shortfall?
Four factors contribute to the size of the 05-06-budget shortfall: .
· Assumed no increase in state funding. There could be a slight increase if the Governor's
recommendations are passed by the Legislature. That would be inadequate to address
Minnetonka's problel1!.
· . Despite efforts to reduce operating costs in prior years including 2004-,05, a revenue shortfall of
. approximately $1.5% ($9.29,000) from 2004-05 is carried forward.
· Declining enrollment of 95 students will reduce revenue by $486,000.
· Expenditures are projected to increase by $2.1 million or 3.4%. The increase is driven by
increased cost for utilities, insurance, contracted transportation, textbooks, supplies, and
personnel.
Based on the 2005-06-budget projection, a revenue shortfall of approximately $3.5. million is
estimated. By utilization of fund balance in excess of the required 6% balance, budget adj~:stments
. totaling $3.2 million are required in orde~ to balance the budget and avoid even morè serious
problems in 2006-07.
Major Change in Philosophy of Funding Schools Occurred in 1994:
In the early 90's a .lawsuit was filed by a group of non-metro and growing suburban districts
challenging the constitutionally of school finance laws. Metro districts were perceived as having an
unfair advantage with easier access to higher referendums. While the lawsuit eventùally failed in the
'Supreme Court, it subsequently changed the politics of the legislature resulting in legislation focused
on equalization of per pupil revenue rather than to provide "equity" of resources and educational
programs.
General Education Funding Formulas:
State funding for regular education falls under a sub-heading called General Education Revenue.
This group of funding formulas has three major components: .
· Basic allocation - all districts receive the same per pupil amount.
3
. Categorical funding - targeted funding for special needs.
. Operating referendum -local limit set by state but requires voter approval.
While all districts receive the same basic allowance the legislature ·annually makes adjustments to
the basic allowance to consolidate funding from other sources into the basic allowance or toslmplify
funding formulas. While the basic allowance has increased the past ten years, excluding the annual
adjustments reduces the increase to less than half. However, over the past ten years the legislature
has made notable differences in the allocation of referendum revenue and catègorical formulas
between school districts. Minnesota ranked 46th in the nation among the states on the percentage of
increase in educational funding for 1997-2003.
Operating Referendum Capped: . .
As a step to equalize per-pupil revenue, the legislature in 1994 implemented per-pupil caps on voter
approved referendums. Because operating costs in Metro districts are higher, the referendum caps
largely impacted Metro districts. As a result, since 1994 per-pupil referendum revenue for the six
West-Metro districts (Eden Prairie, Edina, Hopkins, Minnetonka, Or~mo, and Wayzata) has actually
decreased by 6%. The trend is the opposite of six similar non-metro districts (Duluth, Hibbing,
Mankato, Moorhead, St. Cloud and Rochester). In those districts per pupil operating referendum
. -
revenue increased by 95% since 1994-95.
Per Pupil.Referendum Revenue
The below information includes the $415 transfer from referendum revenue to the basic allocation.
Increase
94-95 04-05 Dollars Percent
West Metro Average $1,294 $1,219 -$75 -5.9%
Non-Metro (six) Average $250 $488- $238 . 95.2 %
Urban (Mpls. & St. Paul) $212 ·$515 $303 143.5%
Higher Personnel Costs in Metro Schools Necessitate Higher Referendum Levels:
It costs approximately 18% more to employ the same staff in a Metro school district as compared to
a non-Metro district. This results in higher operating costs. In 1994, before referendum caps were
implemented by the state, per-pupil revenue for West-Metro schools was 20%, higher than that of
comparable non-Metro districts, funded largely by ·higher referendums. At that same time, when a
20% funding difference existed, both groups of districts had almost identical professional staff
ratios. In 2004 the funding difference has declined to 3.7% and non-Metro districts havelower
staffing ratios (better student-staff ratio) than West-Metro districts. If West-Metro schools were
staffed at the same ratio as comparable non-metro districts, collectively the six West-Metro districts
could employ 222 more teachers.
I .
In order to achieve program parity, legislative consideration should be given to eliminating the
referendum cap. .
4
. Nearly one-fourth of districts (81 out of 343) are already exempt from the cap because they
receive sparsity aid. Of the eight districts receiving the most referendum revenue, none are
from the Metro area.
. Ofthe 23 districts above the cap, only 7 are from the MetrQ area and those were
"grandfathered" in at 1994 level.
Increased Categorical Funding Missed West Metro Districts:
The trend in categorical funding was also unfavorable. Over the past ten years, categorical funding
formulas were developed which targeted funding to districts having concentrations of poverty
(compensatory aid), geographically disbursed student populations (sparsity aid), or below average
referendum revenue (equity aid). For the most part West-Metro districts were not benefactors of
the new formulas and over that time period saw other categorical funding formulas reduced or
eliminated. Since 1994 categorical funding for the six West-Metro districts decreased by 67% while
non-metro districts experienced a 64% increase. In 2004 Minnetonka ranks 342nd of 343 districts in
categorical funding.
West-Metro General Education Revenue Increase Well Below Average:
During the past ten years General Education funding for West-Metro districts, including the basic
formula allowance, categorical funding, and referendum revenue, has iIicreased by just 32%, as
compared to a 53.3% increase for the six non-Metro districts. Had state formula funding increased
by 53.3%, West-Metro per-pupil revenue would be $1,063 higher. That translates into $8.6 million
for Minnetonka Schools. It is clear that such an increase would leave the District's budget in a
considerably different condition.

Special Education Funding:
The state is under-funding special education aid to local school districts by $80 million (13.3%).
The state has in place formulas to provide aid to local schools based upon the cost of the programs
provided in each district. However, the state budget for special education is a fixed amount.
Statewide, if the cost of special education aid formulas exceeds the amount in the state budget, local
special education aid is prorated down for all districts. Up until the current biennium the state has·
funded special education aid at approximately 97% of the aid formula. However, for FY 04-05 the
state budget is $80 million, or 13.3%, below local school district entitlements. Special education aid
. at the state level is being funded at 86.7% of the ,amount state formulas determine local schools are
5
entitled'to receive. For Minnetonka, the special education aid entitlement for 04-05 is being~under
funded by $791,000.
Bud2et Shortfalls Consistent Across West-Metro Districts:
The impending budget shortfall for Minnetonka and other West-metro districts is primarily caused
by decisions made at the state level to not increase funding formulas since 2002-03 while operating
costs continue to increase by about 3% per year. State per-pupil funding in 2002..03 was $4,601 arid
did not increase in either 2003-04 or 2004-05. The only financial relief for West-Metro schools came
in the form of additional voter-approved referendum levy authorized by the 2001 legislature. All of
the districts listed approved referendum levy authorized by the 2001 legislature. All of the districts
listed below, including Minnetonka, were successful in obtaining 'voter suppórt for an increase in the
operating referendum levy in either 2001 or 2002, which provided funding increases in 2002-2003 or
2003-2004, depending upon the year of passage.
West-metro districts such as Eden Prairie, Edina, Hopkins, Orono, and Wayzata face budget
challenges similar to the financial challenges of Minnetonka. All have made budget adjustments in
recent years reducing services to students and all face a revenue shortfall for fiscal year 2005-06.

Special Purpose Funds Cannot Subsidize the General Fund:
It is very important for residents and employees to understand that there is no relationship
financially between money for computers, parking lot improvements, building improvements and
athletic facility improvements and the funding for teachers, programs and services covered by the
General Fund. While it may be confounding to see purchases in those special purpose areas while
staff are being reduced, none of the revenue for those expenditures could be used to solve those
budget challenges. The state has developed special purpose funds to encourage districts to maintain
facilities and purchase technology-related items witho,ut the pressure of setting annual priorities
among all needs. Funding received by a school district for a specific pur-pose must be used for that
purpose. As a result, a school district has a number of sub-groups of accounts called "funds"within
its total budget. Each fund is a separate reporting entity with its own operating statement and
balance sheet. School districts are not permitted to transfer money from one fund seemingly having
more resources to another fund that appears to have fewer resources.
I
The largest fund is called the General Fund and is used to pay operating expenses such as personnel
costs, utilities, transportation supplies, insurance, etc. In addition, there separate funds for food
service, community education, construction, repayment of debt, and trust accounts (money donated
6
to the District for a particular purpose). Funds are used in governmental accounting to assure the
publics that the people entrusted with the management of public resources are using those resources
for the purpose intended. .
For example, the laws behind the accounting system are designed to preclude money identified for
construction being used to fund increases in personnel cost~. Should that be permitted the integrity
of tax system would be worthless and the confidence of taxpayers in the system would be destroyed.
To better understand the concept an analogy can be made between governmental accounting and the
escrow account required most home mortgages. With each home mortgage payment a deposit is
made in an escrow account that is to be used to pay property taxes and to purchase homeowner
insurance. As the escrow account builds the homeowner cannot use funds to buy a new appliance or
to pay college tuition or payoff credit card debt. The money must be used for tile homeowner's
property taxes and property insurance.
The same situation applies to school districts. For example, in Minnetonka the District has funds
available to address deferred maintenance needs. In spite of the shortfall in the General Fund the
District must use the money received for deferred maintenance must be used for deferred.
maintenance.
The School Board is accountable to the public for proper use of the resources provided by our
taxpayers. The accounting system that categorizes resources into funds is the methodology used to
assure the public that tax resources are properly spent. .

Prudent Financial Management
. The District has worked equally hard to control cost Increases 1ß 'Years prior to 2003-04 as
demonstrated in the below chart:
1997 2003 Change Percent
State Average $5,769 $7,656 $1,887 32.7%
Average West-Metro $6,285 $7,863 $1,578 25.1%
Minnetonka $6,724 $7,859 $1,135 16.9%
Source: MDE School Profiles
,. \
The statewide average increase in spending since 1996-97 through 2002-03 is almost 33% as
compared to a 17% increase for Minnetonka. The average for the West-Metro area is about 25%,
well below the state average; while the increase for Minnetonka is even below the average increase
for the West-Metro schools. The cost increase in years subsequent to the above data, FY 2004 and
FY 2005, reflect a 2% or less increase in spending each year. This reflects a concerted effort on the
part of the Minnetonka School Board and Administration to control expenditure increases.

PROFESSIONAL STAFFING RATIOS
FTE Staffing
'Year Teachers Enrollment Ratio
96-97 474.06 7,638 16.11
99-00 520.32 7,727 14.85
01-02 498.86 7,776 15.59
03-04 505.27 7,727 15.29
04-05 494.28 7,656 15.49
The above chart reflects an increase of about twenty in professional staff since 1996-97, and enrollment is nearly
identical to 1996-97. In particular, since 2001-02 professional staffing ratios have remained unchanged,
illustrating that the District has avoided an increase in overall class size in past budget adjustments.
12
Fund Balance:
In 1988 the School Board approved a Fund Balance policy requiring an unappropriated General Fund
balance of at least 6% but not more than 9%. The policy since approval has been the cornerstone of fiscal
management decisions. As a result, the financial rating of the District has improved from an Al to Aa to
Aal. There are only two other districts in Minnesota with this rating and only 49 nationally.
Maintenance of a 6% fund balance is critical component to manage cash flow. The district does not
receive funding in even 12-month increments but property tax is received in two large increments while
80% of state aid is received in the current year with 20% the following year.
The fund balance provides a reserve enabling the District to deal cash flow problems, with budget
variations during the year along with providing flexibility in budget management. A year ago, for
example, the District decided to use approximately. $800,000 of fund balance to avoid making larger
budget cuts for 2004-05. It is anticipated that as of June 30,2005, a 6.3% fund balance will remain.
If significant amounts of fund balance were used in 2005-06, it would deplete the balance and carry an .
even larger imbalance into 2006-07. Such a move would increase the District's spending level and leave
no balance to address future tough years, including 2006-07.
Governor's Proposal:
The Governor of Minnesota has recently proposed a $92 per year (2%) increase in the basic formula
for school districts. This increase mayor may not pass the Legislature. It would not provide enough
money to resolve any of the District's budget challenges for 2005-06. If the other 2% further
increase for 2006-07 can be· passed as well, the two increases would certainly help solve the
approximately $3 million dollar shortfall expected in 2006-07. The District has to address the
immediate issue of the 2005-06 budget with reduction in expenditures and seek to establish financial
stability for the District starting in 2006-07. '
Recommended Budget Adjustments for 2005-06
This budget review has been a highly comprehensive process of reviewing all programs,
services, schedules and staff the District has in an effort to identify those reductions that can
best be made to maintain an excellent program for students within the District's Vision and
Strategic Plan as well as the financial limitations identified. The items described herein
include those that will be proposed for adjustments and those that were examined but are
not being proposed for adjustments. Items 1-43 cover the proposed adjustments, items 44-7S
are not proposed but would be considered if anything were removed from the list of'
proposed items. Beyond #75, the items have been carefully considered but are not
necessarily ranked nor are the costs attributed to them shown.
Basic points to consider regarding the budget changes required for FY06:
).> The budget imbalance is the direct result of the state's inability to fulfill
its commitment to fund education that was established with the formula
13
and tax changes implemented in 2001. The basic formula amount has
not increased in 2003 nor 2004, and it is not projected to increase in
2005 nor 2006. Furthermore, the state has fallen short on its
commitment to special education funding, and Minnetonka alone has
received about $780,000 less than it is entitled to receive.
~ The budget imbalance is structural and cannot be fixed with minor
adjustments.
~ The adjustment will require a strategic realignment of progr;tms,
services and staff within the budget.
~ The shortfall in revenue is not a temporary problem, and the District
cannot anticipate the adjustments made for FY06 to ever be restored.
This may not be a hopeful conclusion, but the state has. not shown a
desire over the past 12-14 years to send significant funding increases to
the schools. Inflationary increases or an occasional referendum are
mostlikely the best that can be projected.
~ A dollar "saved" is a dollar "earned." A $1 cut in FY06 saves a $2 cut
in FY07. It will be best for the overall program to make adjustments
necessary as the District faces deficits in revenue/expenditures than to
let those deficits carry into the following year in the hope that something
positive will come along to solve the problem.
~ These budget changeS will build on impact of previous adjustments that
have already affected programs" services and staff. It will be a Cmore
difficult adjustment than any in the past because of previous decisions.
Some significant· data are provided in the Appendix regarding fees,
comparisons on spending among districts in the Metro area and class size
comparisons in the Metro area. It is useful information regarding the
District's past spending and the proposed changes. Some pertinent data
relative to the budget adjustments are presented below:
Minnetonka, had 8864.0 pupil units during 2003-04, and that is the variable used for the
calculations in the data below and in the tables in the Appendix rather than just pupils
(unweighted).
The District ranked 13th in the Metro on general fund costs per-pupil unit with an annual
cost of $6,339.23. Hopkins was 4th in the ECSU data for the Metro region at $7,417.74,
Edina was 7th at $6,562.85 and Wayzata was 11th at $6,391.89. Others in the immediate
region ranked below Minnetonka.
"'-----/
14
The District ranked 16th on Instructional Support Services (Teaching and Learning staff
and other costs) at $451.46 per pupil nnit. Hopkins was 3rd at $766.22, Wayzata6th,
Edina 12th and Eden Prairie ranked 15th. It is essential for a qistrict that hopes to keep
curriculum development current to maintain efforts in this area, and Minnetonka already
has a very conservative budget.
The District ranked 14th on Total Instructional Expenditures at $3,361.90 per pupil unit.
Hopkins was 3rd at $3,643.61, Wayzata 4th at $3,638.04 and Edina 6th at $3,557.95.
The District ranked 14th on Activities and Athletic costs per pupil unit at $196.76 per pupil
unit.
The District ranked 12th on Administration and Administrative support with $633.83 per
pupil unit. Hopkins was second at $881.70 and Edina was 10th at $672.43.
The District ranked 15th for District and School Administration at $338.14 (3.8% of
budget). Hopkins was 3rd with $475.18 and Edina 10th with $387.38.
The District ranked 15th for Pupil Transportation at $390.76 per pupil unit. Hopkins was
8th.
The District ranked 11th on Pupil Support per pupil unit (counselors, etc.) at $985.44.
Hopkins was 4th at $1,155.08. Edina was 31st at $817.55.
The District ranked 17th on Operations and Maintenance (custodial and maintenance) at
'-.
$543.29. Hopkins was 3rd at $711.55, Edina was 13th and Eden Prairie 14th.
Class sizes have been maintained with the recommended adjustments at, generally, the
levels provided in 2004-05. Within the region, Minnetonka's K-6 class sizes rank second
among the districts studied. The District ranks fifth among high schools on average class
size. While the District ranks a much lower 20th in the middle schools, we can avoid
further increases in class sizes with the six-period plan. And, middle school class sizes can
go down in the future as enrollment declines. The District ranked second in special
education class sizes.
Special education services and programs in the District have been very well funded relative
to other districts; Based upon data from the Department of Education Minnetonka would
receive $5,896,051 reimbursement based upon allowable expenditures. Although Edina is a
cOl11parable sized district with an excellent special education program, they expect
$4,456,697 in comparision. Both Wayzata and Edina Prairie are larger than Minnetonka
(2000-2500 total students more), but Wayzata has $5,583405 and Eden Prairie $5,867,606--
both slightly less than Minnetonka.
The District currently is required to use $3,783,829 in General Fund revenue for special
education costs above the special revenue from the state and federal governments for those
specific programs and services.

Use of the District's Vision and Strategic Plan
The Board's Vision and elements of theStrategic Plan were highly instrumental in creating
a coherent budget adjustment plan for the Board to consider 'whièh will maintain the
District's best opportunity to improve it's schools while facing severe financial issues that
negatively impacts those opportunities.
From the District Vision Statement:
We understand that becoming a world-class district will take time, talent, money, and determination. The children
and citizens of our community deserve no less than our best efforts. "Good enough" serves no one well. We.must
dedicate ourselves to redefining excellence in education in our own tenns. If our future is to be better than our
past, we must have the courage to let go of what no longer serves us, embrace what is required for the future, and
advocate for what is best for our children, our community, and our nation.
As a world-class or2anization dedicated to child-centered excellence, the Minnetonka School District will:
· Challenge and support all students in the pursuit of their highest levels of academic and personal
achievement
· Practice prudent and innovative management of public résources
· Advocate for strong academic and strong co-curricular programs as necessary for lifetime success
· Demand the highest standards of professional excellence in every level of the organization
· Create, pursue, and champion outstanding early childhood education opportunities so that all children
enter kindergarten ready to learn and succeed
· Tailor learning experiences to the needs of individual learners
. Create positive, enjoyable learning environments
· Foster the development of good character and social responsibility
· Instill an abiding appreciation for the rights, privileges, and values of America's systemÖf government
· Produce outstanding graduates who are ready to contribute and thrive in a wide array of future pursuits
· Earn, and maintain, broad-based community support
From the earliest years, the Minnetonka School District will emphasize reading and writing as the foundation of all
future learning. Curriculum and instruction will be aimed at developing in each student:
· a profound command of the English language
· a mastery of mathematics
. a mastery of scientific principles
· a thorough understanding of American history, our system of government, and the importance of
participating in the democratic process
· global awareness through the study of world language, history, geography, and current events
· appf¡eciation of music, literature, visual and perfonning arts
· partìcipation in robust physical activity and health education
· techhological proficiency
· life skills
16
Co-curricular activities are essential for delivering a world-class education. Opportunities not found in the
traditional classroom enhance the students' experience today, as well as prepare them for life's challenges ahead.
A variety of co-curricular activities, both competitive and non-competitive, play an important role in the academic,
social, physical, and emotional development of stUdents.
Outstandinl! maintenance and enerey efficiency also indicates to the community that their investmentis beinl! maximallv utilized
for both present and future eenerations. It is imperative that the resources of the District be used so that all buildin2s and
I!rounds are safe, clean, healthv, and attractive places that stimulate leaminl!, encoural!:e physical activity, and provide essential
I!atherinl!: places for the community as a whofe.
Beyond maintenance, the District will support and develop learning and work environments that balance
functionality with aesthetics.
With time, enthusiasm, commitment, and discipline, the Minnetonka School District and the communities we serve
will recognize that we have achieved world-class, child-centered excellence because:
.. The performance of our students, across multiple areas, ranks amongst the highest performing schools
in the nation.
· The District does measurably more with available resources than other districts of comparable size and
quality.
· Significantly more parents choose to send their children to our schools over other private or public
schools in the metro region.
· High-performing teachers and staff throughout the country indicate the Minnetonka School District as
their first choice as a place to worlc
· The District excels in customer service and community responsiveness, with all points of interaction
being positive,
· The District is recognized as a leader of excellence in American public . education by becoming the
recipient of a wide variety of awards and recognitions.
· . Our alumni report a high degree of satisfaction with the preparation for life that they received through
their years in the Minnetonka School District.
· The District receives unprecedented support from the communities we serve.

18
The single expectation we have followed in designing. the budget for
2005-06 and making reductions that we will provide the very best
. .
opportunity for every student in our District within the limited
resources the State of Minnesota has provided. While all of the
proposed reductions are very difficult and painful, we -have made
the best of bad choices and reduced those that will detract the least·
from our students' educational opportunities and best maintain the·
Vision's work.
The format below describes the respective budget adjustment, ranks those that are being proposed .
for recommendation, estimates the financial impact, and provides rationale, impact and
connection to the Vision.
» The Rationale is intended to deseribe why· an item would be considered for
recommendation--even if it is not being proposed for recommendation asa reductionò
» The Impact is intended to present the reasons a particular reduction might be
problematic, how it might play out or how it affects students and staff.
» The Connection to the Vision is intended to connect the particular item to the
District's Vision, Mission or other elements in the Strategic Plan. It is very possible that
something proposed for reduction does support the Vision or Mission, and making the
reduction will affect the District's ability to deliver. It is also some of the logic for not
proposing some items.
» The Cost figures shown below that involve staff generall consider the total cost of the
respective positions and are not reflecting just salary.
The specific expenditure reductions or increase in fees being recommended for implementation
are shown below, generally in order of priority for #1 through #75. There is $376,720 in
recommended fees. The assignment of General -Fund costs to other funds accounts for
$337,220, which will produce a further impact on the funding capacity of those respective
funds. There are all or part of four administrative positions. There are four custodial
positions, 2.0 FTE plus portions ,of other para-professional positions and portions of clerical
positions. There are 29.85 teaching positions; accounting for $1,432,800 of the $3,235,180 total.
There'is one social worker, .s of a counselor and .25 of the Drug and Alcohol Prevention
position.
1. Institute a Fee for Transportation
Fee would be set at $100 per year for each student living within two miles of the
respective school attended and riding District-provided buses. This would apply to non-
public students as well as those attending District schools. There would bea family limit
of $250 per year for families with three or more students impacted. There would also
not be a charge for students who meet the income qualifications (Free and Reduced Meal
qualifiers). The amount ofthe fee is very difficult to set, because the fee impacts students
and their parents according to the rate established. The District would encounter great
$236,600
19
difficulty in managing traffic if many of the parents choose to drive their child to school
rather than utilize District-provided transportation. A public hearing on this matter would
have to be held on this and other fees before they could be implemented.
Rationale:
In 2000 the legislature changed state law mandating free transportation for students
residing more than two miles from school. As a result, when budget resources are
tight and assessment of fees become an alternative to reducing services in the
classroom, a number of Minnesota districts have charged students residing two or
less miles from school a fee for transportation, Eden Prairie implemented a fee two
years ago. Furthermore, the charging of this fee would provide revenue that can
off-set the reduction in expenditures which may affect all students. The amount
raised would be equivalent to about five teaching positions.
ImpactofReducdon: .
For most areás in the District, walking is not a safe option for students to get to
school. As a result, parents who do not elect bus service will transport students
·living within two miles or expect them to walk or ride bilœs. However, state law·
provides that it is a parentIs responsibility to ensure that students arrive at school
safely. Implementation of a fee will reduce in the number of students, who live
within two miles of school, riding the bus and resulting in more traffic congestion at
each school ifthe fee is not paid.
2. Increase Extra-Curricular Fees (see specifics in the Appendix)
$ 109,120
High School:
· Raise the "Participation" fee ITom $40 to $60 per student. This enables the respective
student to participate in the activities program in whatever number of activities they
choose.
· Raise the" Activity" fees by 25% in each activity and use more funds to cover
operations and transportation costs. The Activity fee is different than the Participation
fee under the law and it can be used to reflect the cost of each àctivity.
Middle Schools:
. Raise the "Participation" fee ITom $20 to $40 per student.
· Raise the" Activity" fees ITom $45 to $55 per student per activity and use more funds
to cover operation and transportation costs.
The total increase in revenues is èstimated at $109,120, which moves the revenue
collected for 6-12 activities to approximately $340,000. More detail on the specific
fees is provided in the Appendix.
Rationale:
A choice between reducing extra-curricular activities offered to students and raising
the fees for participation has been considered. It was detennined that it is in the
interest of students to continue to offer as many activities as currently provided and
charge a greater fee to those who participate. Extra-Curricular programs are
supported by student fees, parent fund raising, and by District resources. Fees are
20
charged for participation, operation of the program, for equipment purchase, repair
and replacement, and for transportation. The proposed fees will reduce dependence
on District resources for operation ofthe extra curricular programs. Within the total
extra-curricular budget, non-athletic activities cost $162,710, Boys/Girls athletics
cost $408,064, Boys athletics cost.$368,116 and Girls athletics cost $315,897. The
$1,265,235 total is 2% of the overall operating budget of $62 million. The amount
of each respective fee has been carefully considered, because raising fees too muc4
will not result in the expected revenue increase. if students drop the activity.
Furthermore, too high of a fee can force students to drop the activity and lose an
important experience.
Impact of Reduction:
The recommended increase in fees will release $109;120 in resources to be used for
other needs. The proposed fee structure will be about mid-range when compared to
other Classic Lake Conference Districts. It will cost students' parents significantly
more in 2005-06 to have their students participate in activities.
Vision Connection:
· Co-curricular activities are essential for delivering a world-class education.
· Attitudes, skills, and experiences nurtured in co-curriculars enhance, rather than
compete with, the academic mis~ion of our schools. They are necessary for
life-long success and will be supported and celebrated.
· Opportunities not found in the traditional classroom enhance the students'
experience today, as well as prepare them for life's challenges ahead.
· Wide-spread participation and outstanding performance in a variety of
co-curricular activities brings the community closer to the schools and
students, thereby increasing awareness of and support for our students.
· Offering a wide variety of co-curricular options which are open to a broad
number of students and are responsive to student interests helps to create
smaller communities within the high school community, which are necessary
for creating a feeling of belonging and relevance.
3. Increase High School Parking Fee
(by $50 per year)
$ 24,000
·Ratiollale:
Access to student parking at MHS is a privilege available to approximately 480
students. Bistorically the demand for parking has exceeded available space. The
cost of servicing student parking has continued to increase, and it is appropriate to
increase the fee by $50 per year to $250. Fees represent a source of revenUe for the
District. Currently there is some space available on existing bus routes that cost
approximately $280 per student per year whether students ride or not.
Impact of Reduction:
The revenue generated by an increase in parking' fees will reduce budget
adjustments in other areas. Students will share the impact of the $50 increase
among those in the car-pool. Students can choose District-provided transportation. .
21
4~ Over-Sale of Student Parking Passes
Rationale:
Overbook the student parking lot by 35 permits. Because of absenc,es some parking
spots may be open during the day and student demand for permits is high.
Ilnpactofreduction:
No changes in protocol, but on days where lot capacity is exceeded there would be
student and parent complaints or students would park illegally. There would be a
plan for accommodating an situation where the parking lot filled.
5. Increase charge for Building and Grounds Maintenance Specialists
to the Capital Fund or Alternative Facility Budget
Rationale:
Maintenance specialists include carpenters,. HV AC (heating, ventilation, and air
conditioning) staff, and painter. Historically an allowance has been established in
the General Fund for building maintenance expenses. Deferred maintenance work
previously funded in the General Fund will now be funded in using Alternative
Facility resources, In addition, some projects will be funded fÌom Capital
resources.
Impact of Reduction:
This will allow the District to avoid deeper reductions in other areas. Ii will reduce
General Fund budget for deferred maintenance making the District dependent upon
Alternative Facility and Capital resources to fund deferred maintenance projects
resulting in less budget flexibility. There will be an impact on the projects that can
be funded in those budgets.
6. Transfer V oicemaiI and Cable Costs to Technology Fund
Rationale:
Services purchased from telephone company must be charged to the General Fund,
but the balance of those related CQsts can be charged to the Teclmology Fund as
they are technology costs.
Impact of Reduction:
This will affect the funds available for hardware, software and infta-structure in the
Technology budget.
7. Reduce Professional Development Discretionary Fund
Rationafe:
A dIscretionary fund for staff development across the District, managed by the
I .. .
Supenntendent, to fund any specIal needs has largely gone unused, and a reductIOn
in this discretionary amount for FY06 can protect other programs, services and
staffing within the budget.
$ 7,000
$ 85,000
$ 19,400
$200,000
22
Impact of Reduction:
This will preserve other elements of the budget. Some staff development needs
may have to be withheld in 2005-06 if the remaining budget is inadequate.
8. Reassign the Facility Use Fees from MCES to the General Fund
$ 20,000
Rationale: .
This is a re-structuring of the clerical position in Buildings and Grounds and in
MCES (Community Education). Currently all revenue received from building rental·
is deposited in Fund 04, Community Education and Services. The cost to operate
District facilities is paid fr.om the General Fund. Reassigning responsibility for
building scheduling to the Buildings· and Grounds Office will centralize the
scheduling of facilities with the department responsible for implementation of the
schedule and will direCt the receipts for all building rentals to the General Fund. It'
will remove the responsibility for scheduling facility use from MCESand require
MCES to work with the Buildings. and Grounds Office to reserve space for
Community Education programs.
Impact of Reduction:
Fèes received from rental of facilities will subsidize the cost of Building and·
Grounds clerical services. In an effort to maximize General Fund revenue from
building use it is recommended that the fee schedule be updated. MCES
(Community Education) will be required to work with Building and Grounds to
coordinate use of facilities for MCES programming. The transfer of rental income
will negatively impact the MCES budget, and those adjustments will· have to be
addressed in the budgeting process.
"
Vision Connection:
Practice prudent and innovative management of public resources.
9. Charge Capital Budget for Textbooks, or Include a Portion in
the Instructional Equipment Budget
$100,000
Rationale:
Textbooks are considered an allowable Capital Budget expenditure. Historically
Minnetonka has funded textbooks from the General Fund to preserve Capital
Budget funds for classroom equipment. With· the passage of the 2002 operating
capital referendum for technology and classroom equipment the resources
previously allocated in the Capital Budget for instructional equipment can now be
used for textbooks without the same negative impact. Resources in the classroom
equipment budget (levy) are also available for this purpose.
Impact of Reduction:
Will reduce resources available in Capital Budget for non-instructional equipment
needs such as buildings and grounds, health services, support services, and
administtFltion.
23
10. Restructure Custodia] Services
$140,000
The recommendation has several components to reduce custodial staffing.
a. Reduce (1.0) lead custodian trainee position. . $35,000
b. Eliminate (1.0) middle level custodian. Each
middle school building will be assigned 5.5
FTE rather than 6.0 FTE custodial positions. $35,000
c. Eliminate MHS HV AC maintenance position (1.0). $35,000
d. Eliminate (1.0) elementary position. $35,000
Rationale:
The focus of custodial services will be to continue to provide quality housekeeping
during the evening hours. This will be accomplished by assigning· fewer staff
assigned to work days at the high school and middle schools and by making
modifications to the evening custodial work schedule.
Impact of Reduction:
Fewer staff will be available during the daytime hours to deal with facility needs as
they occur. There will be one fewer HV AC specialist. The district-wide HV AC team
(3 FTE) will provide High School mechanical system support. Positions eliminated
at the middle level and high school will reduce staff available during the school
hours. Staff time available for direct' cleaning during the evening at the middle
schools will not be impacted. At the elementary level, staff available during the
evening in each building will be adjusted so in the aggregate one-full time position
is reduced.
Vision Connection:
· Practice prudent and innovative management of public resources.
· Outstanding maintenance and energy efficiency also indicates to the community
that their investment is being maximally utilized for both present and future
generations.
· It is imperative that the resources of the District be used so that all buildings and
grounds are safe, clean, healthy, and attractive places that stimulate learning,
encourage physical activity, and provide essential gathering places for the
community as a whole.
11. Reduction in Travel and Supply Budgèts for the Superintendent,
Board, and Cabinet Members
I
Rationale:
I .
The'travel of administrators and board members will be reduced significantly, and
supplies for the offices will be reduced.
$ 57,500 .
24
Impact of Reduction
All of the reductions will impact the availability of leadership development
opportunities and limit production of needed documents. This will impact the
District's ability to have its leaders remain current with improvements in education
and management issues.
12. End the Transfer Payment for Parent Education from The General Fund
to Community Education
.$ 38,820
Rationale:
Approximately eight years ago the legislature added five dollars per pupil unit to
the state funding formula to encourage districts to develop better parent
involvement program~. The funds were transferred annually from the General Fund
to MCES to subsidize in part the cost of volunteer coordination, the :MHS parent
resource center, and the MHS Career Resource Center. Approximately four years
ago state funding for the program ended; however the subsidy in Mini1etonka was
continued. The recommendation assumes that in the future the programs wìll be
fully funded by MCES, either through existing resources or by adjusting fees.
Impact of Reduction:
The respective parent education services will have to be evaluated through the
MCES Budget. An increase in fees is an option to continue the existing services.
The respective parent education services will have to be evaluated through the
MCES budgeting process.
13. Allocate Video and Media Costs to the Technology Fund
$ 24,000
Rationale:
This budget is a residual of the technology support costs now funded by the
technology levy. The resources are used for equipment repair and to purchase
software. This portion of the General Fund budget should have been transferred
with technology support services to the Technology Budget.
Impact of Reduction:
Cost must be incorporated in the $3.5 million technology budget, and itwill affect·
other purchases.
14. Increase Allocation of Custodial Time Charged to Community EdQcation
$ 15,000
Rationale:
Custodians are required to be available to assist MCES in setting up for evening
programs and to assist in directing patrons. Fewer evening custodial staff would be
required if the school buildings were not opened to the public for evening and
weekend events. Currently MCES is charged $30,000 per year for such custodial
services. Historically MCES is allocated approximately 80% of the cost to operate
DEC, 33% of the cost to provide an evening supervisor at MRS, and $15,000 in
Business Office clerical time,
25
Impact of Reduction:
The increase in cost must be incorporated into the MCES budget possibly
necessitating an increase in program fees.
Vision Connection:
Practice prudent and innovative management of public resources.
15. Close the District's Laundry Faèility
$ 33,000
Rationale:
The District has provided a valuable service, but towels providèd to students will
end. Also, uniforms will be included in a cleaning service, with the charge-back
going to the students. F ACS and Food Service will have to do their own laundry.
Impact of Reduction:
Middle level students will be required to provide their own towels for the two-week
physical education swimming section. The recommended change in student
activity fees will cover the added cost for cleaning and maintaining uniforms and
equipment.
16. Reduce Snow Removal Budget
$ 30,000
Rationale: -
Two years ago District purchased two trucks equipped with snow removal
equipment. As a result, District equipment is now used for all snow falls of 2" or
less and is used to supplement contracted equipment for heavier snow falls.
Impact of Reduction:
There will be no impact on the ability of the District to promptly clear parking lots
and drives of snow. Since procurement of the two vehicles District staff have
supplemented the contracted service. In 02-03 snow removal costs were $40,000
under budget and in 03-04 costs were $10,000 under budget. It is reasonable to
proj ect the budget can be reduced by the recommended amount.
17. Charge Up To 50% of Building and Grounds Supervisor's cost to the
Alternative Facilities Budget
$ 35,000
Rationale:
Because the District now qualifies for Alternative Facility funding a plan has been
developed to address approximately $25 million in deferred maintenance needs. A
large portion of the Supervisor's time is devoted to administration and management
of the program.
Impact of Reduction:
A reduction in the cost of the Building and Grounds Supervisor charged to the
General Fund. Eligibility for Alternative Facility funding has necessitated that the
26
Supervisor spend approximately 50% of his time managing and administering the
program. The cost will be absorbed by Alternative Facility projects.
18. Require All Employees to be on Direct Deposit for Paychecks
$ 3,000
Rationale:
Direct deposit of most employee paychecks has been in place for years. State law
now authorizes local districts to mandate that all employees be on direct deposit.
Payroll information is also available online, eliminating the need to print a payroll
statement each pay period. Currently all DSC employees and all Clear Springs
employees are on this system.
Impact of Reduction:
With the exception ofthose employees requesting otherwise;all District employees
will be paid· via direct deposit. Employees specifically requesting a pay check will
be required to pick up the check at the District Service Center. No payroll
statements will be provided as employees can access payroll informationonlin,e.
19. Cancel ECSU (Educational Cooperative Service Unit) Membership
$ 7,565
Rationale:
Membership in the Metro Educational Cooperative Service Unit (ECSU) is
voluntary, and the cost of membership cannot be justified for the services received. .
Impact of Reduction:
Programs and services desired will have tobe paid for on a per unit basis.
20. Reduce Out-of-District Special Education and ALC Tuition
- $100,000
Rationale:
· Accurate budget amount will allow District use dollars to support other expenses
or reduce budget.
· Budget fluctuates, reduction will allow District to reduce budget.
· This change can be done in order to align budget line items with actual budget
expenditures (this change matches the actual cost for FY2004. It is never
possible to anticipate all of the tuition costs prior to the start of a school year).
Impact of Reduction:
· It Íspossible that the District could overrun tuition costs and need to cover it with
fund balance.
· Budgèt will accurately reflect expected costs.
21. Eliminate Some High School Mailings
(use technology for newsletters, report cards and progress reports)
$ 11,050
Rationale:
· Systems are now in place to handle these processes.
27
· This protocol will free clerical staff from a labor-intensive project.
· The High School will also have an electronic record of notification.
· Computer technology is in place to replace current mailing practices.
· P arents will have personal access to infonnation that is now sent via U.S. Mail.
· Tight budgetary constraints causes the school to restructure its services to
students, staff and families.
· Non-personnel reduction minimizes to a certain degree additional personnel
decisions.
· Reduction provides for some equity across all supply accounts.
Impact of Reduction:
· Electronic communication will enhance communications with families.
· Labor intensive projects will be minimized for our clerical staff.
· System provides for an electronic record of notification.
Vision Connection:
· Practice prudent and innovative management of public resources.
· Earn and maintain broad-based community support.
· Demand the highest standards of professional excellence in every level of the
organization.
22. Reduce Itinerant Services from Intermediate School District #287
$ 40,000
Rationale:
· Reduction of 908 to 801.5 itinerant days. Services are contracted from
Intennediate School District 287, and the amount of service is determined
based on current student need.
· A reduction in need is due to students graduating and the School District
increasing responsibility in the areas of occupational therapy and augmentative
communication.
· Services that will be reduced include occupational therapy, deaf and hard of
hearing, augmentative communication, physical therapy, and assistive technology
specialist.
Impact of Reduction:
· Increased teaching and consultation responsibilities shift to District special
education staff.
· Rates for the 2005-2006 school year have not been set, thus actual savings will
be detennined in February of2005.
Vision Connection:
· Practice prudent and innovative management of public resources.
· ¡We will provide personalized curriculum and staff to help student~ with special
. needs reach their life goals. .
!
28
23. Increase Secondary Special Education Caseloads to 21:1
$ 75,000
Rationale:
· Minnetonka's special education budget.is significantly higher than other districts,
in the region, and it is important to manage these costs as well as others in the·
District. .
· Class size in the secondary schools can be increased as overall class size in the
schools have been increased.
· Secondary teachers complete fewer initial assessments.
· Secondary special education students may be served in larger groups.
· General education teachers may provide support during Zero hour.
· Differentiation may allow students to be successful in mainstream classes.
Impact of Reduction:
· Reduced contact time for individual students, but the longer Class periods
within a six-period day offsets that to a great degree.
· Increased workload for teachers.
· Increase potential for parent disagreement in the provision ofF APE.
· Challenge in hiring and maintaining highly qualified staff.
· Students not provided with level of necessary support.
· Decrease in communication with families.
Vision Comzection:
· Challenge and support all students in the pursuit of their highest levels of
academic and personal achievement.
· We will provide personalized curriculum and staff to help students with
special needs reach their life goals.
· Work with parents and students to develop reasonable, yet challenging,
plans for academic and personal achievement which truly serve the individual.
24. Reduce High School Counseling Positions by .5 FTE
$ 24,000
Rationale:
· The reduction rrom 6.0 FTE to 5.5 FTE can be accomplished by adjusting
expectations and resetting roles.
· The use of flexible summer hours will help relieve some peak period work.

37. Institute a Six-Period Day Format at the High School
(a reduction of 8.25 FTE)
.$409,000 .
High School Restructuring Plan
There are several options for reducing costs at the High School. It is clear that any of the
choices will have an impact on students in some way. That is the conclusion dictated by
the state when they chose not to adequately fund schools.
· One approach would be to eliminate several courses and no longer offer them to
students. That would have to be accompanied by limits on the number of courses
that students could take in order tö' assure that cost reductions were to be actually
realized.
· Another approach would be to just limit the number of course selections students
could take and have the impact on courses follow those decisions bY'students.
· Another option considered was to gain the necessary cost reductions by raising
class size and reducing the number of sections for each course. That would leave
a greater number of students ill significantly larger classes and still reduce student
options.
However, the option recommended is to transition from a seven-period day to a
six-period day, which reduces the possible choices of courses for students but
increases the amount of time spent in each class and with each teacher; thereby
strengthening those courses and supporting the District's strategic goals of
personalizing education. and building supportive relationships among students and·
teachers. In fact, this option increases the equivalent amount of tîme for students to
receive instruction by 20-25 days per year in the courses they do take, which
increases individual attention. There will be about 1,211 minutes more of time for
instruction and individual help in each yearlong course for 2005-06. There will
be many positive results with this change to six periods, and the challenges the
change presents will have to be managed in order to ensure as strong a program as
possible.
This model is not unusual for high quality schools. In fact, Edina has had a six-period
day for their high school students for many years, and they have just completed a
study that led them to conclude that the six-period day is their best option.
Rationale:
· A six period day will provide for increased time-on-task with individual class
time being increased from 47 to 54 minutes in length (calculates to 1,211
36
minutes or the equivalent of approximately 20-25 additional classroom periods
in each ofthe six periods).
· Maintaining a seven-period day schedule would require the implementation of
other cost-containment options that would increase the average class size more
than what will be necessary in a six period day schedule. .
· This option provides the best alternative by accomplishing the limitations on
course choices without raising class size or without having students
unsupervised during the day for several periods if course choices were limited.
· Reduces the number of students in study halls and free periods during the day.
· Seven classes per day is a very demanding schedule for many High. School
students, and it creates some problems that can be reduced by having smaller
loads. Many comparable high schools have students generally taking five to six
classes per year, and their students get into excellent colleges.
· The change in number of courses available to be taken during high schoolwiU .
not impact college opportunities.
· Teachers will spend more of their teaching day in instructional settings (five
classes and one preparation period) compared to the seven-period format -(five
classes, one preparation period and one supervision period).
· More teacher time would be spent on instruction and less on supervisory duties.
· Increase content depth in each course.
· Students who want or need more than six credits will be given opportunities to
express an interest, and courses can be developed outside of the day if there is
enough interest.
· Currently, 85% of the MHS juniors and seniors take up to six classes. There
will be considerable work done with options to help those students who want or
need seven classes to work through the issues.
Impact of Reduction:
· Having 24 class periods over four years available to meet 22.5 required credits.
will place more pressure on all students. The pressure will be less for students)
who have already been in the High School while the seven-period day has been
in place. ' .
· "Zero hour" classes, Online courSes or summer school courses may need to be
offered in order for students to complète four years of science, math, world
language, ill and music and meet current graduation requirements.
· The predicted impact on staff would be reductions as follows:
. 0 FACS -.4
o Technical Education -.4
o Art -.4
o Physical Education -.2
o . World Languages -1.2
o Math -1.0
o Social Studies -1.5
o Business Education -.4
o Language Arts -1.0
o Science -1.0
NOTE: - The actual impact will be detennined by the specific choices students
make in enrolling in classes for 2005-06.
37
· hnplementing "exit" requirements in physical education and health, rather than
requiring that they be met in ninth and tenth grade, would allow more individual
course selection and schedule flexibility. This means meeting the requirements
by graduation rather than necessarily taking them as ninth or t~~th graders.
· Students would, generally, not have study halls.
· Resource rooms will not necessarily be staffed with teachers during the school
day, but they will be provided.
· Zero hour will continue to be a focus time for academic help and makeup, and
the reduction in study halls will even place greater emphasis on the zero hour.
· Student registration in elective classes is projected to decline, as fewer periods
are available to schedule electives; however the school will still have a very
broad program that can meet the expectations of many students.
· Teachers will move from having five classes of 47 mi:p.utes each, a prep period
of 47 minutes and a supervision period of 47 minutes to five classes of 54
minutes each, a prep period of 54 minutes and no supervision period. Many
teachers also have four days of "zero hour" time to assist students as well. In
fact, there will be much less of a need for supervision with a six-period day.
While the time in class· for teachers will have to increase from three hours and
fifty-five minutes to four and a half hours per day, there will be more time to
give individual attention. Also, prep time increases 7 minutes a day.
Vision Connection:
· Produce outstanding graduates who are ready to contribute and thrive in a wide
array of future pursuits.
· Challenge and support all students in the pursuit of their highest levels of
academic and personal achievement. (personal achievement in elective areas
may be compromised.)
· Practice prudent and innovative management of public resources.

foundation of all future learning. Curriculum and instruction will be aimed at
developing in each student:
o A profound command of the English language
o A mastery of mathematics
o A mastery of scientific principles
o A ·thorough understanding of American history, our system of
government, and the importance of participating in the democratic process
o Global awareness through the study of world language, history, geography
and current events

· Also under study is whether the District may allow students to meet the physical
education requirement by participating in athletics and ifthe arts requirement can be
met by participating in dramatics. The specific activities would have to be
directed/coached by teachers with certification in physical education or the particular
arts, respectively.
38. Reduce Science Coordination Time (.3 Teacher On Special Assignment)
$ 15,275
Rationale:
The specific coordination of district-wide programs would be assigned to the
Executive Director of Teaching and Learning.
Impact of Reduction:
The assignment would require further shifts of responsibilities, as follows:
39
· Responsibility for coordinating science would be shifted to a principal or a
teacher on a district chair (beyond duty) assignment.
· Preparation and knowledge of upcoming State test requirements would need
to be apriority, both at elementary, middle and high school. .
· The responsible person would need to focus on implementing the Science
Improvement Recommendations.
39. Reduce High School Activities Administration
(Teacher On Special Assignment by .4)
Rationale:
The administration of activities demands more than one person, but it will be
necessary to reduce one of the existing positions by .4 in order to accomplish
adequate overall adjustments.

40. Restructure Middle School Day
(Move from a seven to a six-period day at both middle schools.)
Six-Period Day-Middle Level
$ 19,200
$801,600
One of the strongest movements in American education during the 1980's and 90's was the transformation
from the "Junior High School" model to the "Middle School" model for students in grades five through
eight (or combinations thereof) in many districts. A major factor in the choices of grades included waS the
growing recognition that ninth graders were maturing at an earlier age and were much more like tenth
graders than they were like seventh graders. Also, it was realized that sixth graders were maturing faster
and were more like seventh graders than they were like elementary children. Junior high schools generally
had grades seven-nine or seven and eight.
There Were Isome key elements in the middle school model that were envisioned by the leaders. One of the
most criticc¡.l elements in the model was an underlyiµg philo~ophy of focusing on students and meeting
their unique and individual needs rather than focusing upon subject matter. Junior highs are designed as
high schools for younger students, and the focus is similar to a high school. Other key features of a middle
school were extensive exploratory courses, including "mini-courses of a wide variety and short duration,
40
creation of teams of students who were taught by a common group of teachers, common planning time
(team planning) for the teachers in core classes assigned to specific teams of students, no competitive
activities, and limited competitive activities, homogeneous grouping of students, and an advisory program.
The beliefwas that middle schools would focus on the whole child and that students would be known well
by at least one adult.
The common planning time for teachers was intended to provide the benefits of an elementary school
model (where teachers know their students very well but do not specialize in specific subjects) and the
high school model (where teachers specialize in specific s~bjects and have more limited contact with
individual students). The team planning was intended to coordinate the work for students in various
subjects to avoid overly loading students with tests and projects on any given dayand to allow teachers on
the team to communicate about the students on their respective team. The performànce expectations in
middle schools were often modified in all classes in order to encourage all students to address their
developmental changes. Academic growth was generally given a lower priority than the social and
personal development of students. Minnetonka adopted many aspects of that overall philosöphy when
middle schools were put in place, but there were also elements of the 'Imodel" that were not included. The
key philosophy of focusing the schools on addressing student needs was implemented in Minnetonkaand
still thrives today.
The evolution of brain research has further enlightened educators regarding the potential for much greater
intellectual growth during the middle school years, and the "standards movement" across America has
placed a much greater emphasis on academic performance at all levels. Middle schools generally cost
more to operate than junior high schools, and many districts have had severe budget constraints that impact
costly pro grams. All of these factors have brought middle schools to new level of scrutiny.
Many middle schools across the country provide five core classes for their students and two periods of
encore classes. They include at least two periods of language arts (usually reading) for all students.
MinnetoÌ1ka has not had that fifth course in the core,ànd it has enabled the District to provide three periods
of encore classes. Other middle schools have been able to meet their expectations in the encore course
area with just two periods per day. That allows teachers in those schools a period for individual
preparation and another period for team preparation.
Minnetonka students spend 47 minutes in each class now, and they are scheduled for seven classes per day.
They currently have the "core" classes of math, language arts, science and social studies all three years.
Students also have music and world language on alternate days for all three years. Sixth graders
additionally have ALC (Accelerated Learning Class) for a semester, art for a semester and three quarters of
physical education and one quarter of health. Seventh graders additionally have a semester of F ACS, a
semester of Technical Education, and three quarters of physical education and one quarter of health.
Eighth graders additionally have art for a semester, F ACS for a quarter, Technical Education for a quarter,
and physical education for a semester and health for a semester. All students have·a short "advisory"
period. Minnetonka middle school teachers currently have five periods for teaching (47 minute periods) at
three hours and fifty-five minutes per day; an "advisory" class of fifteen minutes, one individual planning
period (47 minutes) and one team planning period (47 minutes). .
There are several options for reducing costs at the middle school level. One would be to raise class size by
8-10 students and reduce the staff according the open positions that would be created. Class sizes are
already high, and this would not be a good choice for accomplishing the reductions needed.
41
It would be possible to have teachers teach six classes out of seven, and thereby reduce the staffinopen
positions created. That could maintain class size but would increase the load for teachers significantly.
It would be possible to eliminate some of the programs directly and ):lave students be in other classes
longer or in study halls of some type. This would be an unacceptable instructional setting and would still
eliminate some offerings.
The most logical choice is to move ftom a seven-period day to a six-period day. It still allows for two
periods of encore classes, which is very comparable to many other middle schools across the country.
This proposed middle school restructuring will strengthen the core classes and other courses that are
retained by providing significantly more time, but will eliminate about one-third of the encore course
offerings (art, technology education, F ACS, music, physical education and health) by goiIÍg ftom three
periods available for encore classes to two.
Students wÍll have 54-minute classes, which will gain the equivalent of about 20-25 class periods of
in$tructional time in each of the classes they take for an entire year, within a 6-period day. A fundamental
shift is that eighth grade students will have to make choices-they cannot take all of the encore classes
they have had in the past. All students will have an encore experience in sixth or seventh grade of art,
technical education, F ACS, music and physical educationlhealth. In eighth grade students must choose
between the enhanced world language class that will be the first year in a new five-year program for world
languages or the Art/Technical Education/F ACS block. They cannot take both options.
Sixth graders will take language arts, science, math and social studies everyday. They will take music
and physical education on alternate days. They will have a choice in music of band, strings, chorus or
general music. They will have Art and ALC fora semester each. This will preserve teaming close to how
it currently stands. .
The Accelerated Learning Class (ALC) for 6th graders is a class that helps transition the students from an
élementary school into a· middle school. The curriculum includes units on organization, goals and goal
setting, creating a personal mission statement, and learning strategies. Those include reading strategies for
textbooks and web sites, presentation strategies, and research strategies. This class would be maintained,
but modified, to include more instruction in reading and health.
Seventh graders will take language arts, science, math and social studies every day. They will take music
and physical education on alternate days. They will take one semester of health on an every-day basis.
They will take F ACS for one quarter on an every-day basis, and they will take Technical Education for a
quarter on an every-day basis.
Eighth graders will take language arts, science, math and social studies everyday. They will take music
and physical education on alternate days. They will have to choose a year-long world language course to
be taken every day or a semester of art followed by a quarter of F ACS and a quarter of Technical
Education. The "advisory" period will continue for students in all three grades.
Class sizes will be about the same as they've been in 2004-05 and teaming in sixth grade will be
preserved. Students will be placed on teams in seventh and eighth grades, but teachers will not have the
same structural supports. More creative way~ of accomplishing teaming will have to be developed.
Wodd language will be strengthened by having it as the truly first year of the District's sequence in eighth
grade, but there will be a reduction in the exploratory element· of world language by not having
42
opportunities available in sixth and seventh grades. That structure will change in future years if the
District implements a language-immersion program at the elementary and/or middle school levels.
Teachers will move from five classes of 47 minutes each to having five, classes of 54 minuteseacl). (four
hours and thirty minutes) plus the "advisory" and from one individual prep period of 47 minutes and a
team planning period of 47 minutes to one prep period of 54 minutes. That is an increase of thirty-five
minutes of teaching time and an increase of seven minutes of individual prep. The team planning,
however, would no longer exist within the school day.
Other elements of Minnetonka's middle school model will remain very much in place. The overall focus
on students rather than subject matter will continue. The advisory period will remain. There will still be a
significant number of exploratory ( encore) opportunities, but there will be more of an academic focus
within the overall framework. The impact of the change in team planning will depend upon how much of
that time has been used for the intended purposes in the past and how the schedule can be constructed for
2005-06. While true team planning is an important element in the middle school model, the District has
had adjustments to its use over the past several years.
Rationale:
· Of the options for maintaining the "middle school model" and serving students
while making adequate financial reductions, the restructuring model (seven
periods transitioning to six periods) provides the most orderly and best solution.
· Class size would be maintained at current levels, but the alternative to
restructuring would be to dramatically raise class size and reduce classes in that
manner.
· ALC adds a more differentiated reading còmponent.
· There is an increase of reading instruction in sixth grade.
· Music offerings remain the same, but individual lessons during the school day
are eliminated.
· Teaming during the student day is maintained for sixth grade, possible for
seventh grade and unlikely for eighth grade. With more creative use of time,
there will be ways to have the benefits ofteaming.
· The quality of world languages is greatly enhanced and provides continuity to
enable the option for a fifth year of a world language option by twelfth grade to
be established.
· There is an increase class time to the equivalent of 20-25 more class periods per
year because of longer class periods, thereby increasing individual attention.
· The state requirements for arts will be met with this plan, and they are as
follows:
"Elementary and middle schools must offer at least three and require at least
two of the four arts areas of dance, music, theatre, and visual arts."
Impact of Reduction:
· Reduction of exploratory/encore options for students in physical education,
health, world languages, FACS, music, and technology education. Encore
course reductions reduces encore staffFTE by one third.
· Middle school "exploratory" philosophy is compromised with the reductions in
encore classes and to a degree with the limits on team planning time. .
43
· . Reduction in personnel increases advisory/START class sizes because of fewer
staff members available.
· Flexibility to engage students in non-academic, valued added activities
(community-building! service projects) may be impacted--unless· new models
are created.
· Restructuring of remaining supervisory duties would required.
· Health classes are eliminated in sixth grade and eighth grade, and the health
curriculum will be compacted accordingly.
· Music experiences, except for sixth grade individual lessons, are retained.
· Wodd language experiences are eliminated in sixth and seventh grades.
· World language experiences for students who do not pursue world language
courses will be eliminated.
· World language courses in eighth grade for the students who chose them will
be greatly improved and will match the core classes in the amount of time devoted
to them.
e The first year of a new five-year world language sequence will be available in
middle school starting in the fall of2005. .
· Students in seventh and eighth grades will be on teams, but teachers will not
necessarily have a common preparation time during the student day in order to
"team".
· Eighth grade students would choose either a full year, every day World Language
class, or the Art (for a semester)/FACS(for aquarter)/Technical Education(for a
quarter) block.
· Health is required in seventh grade for one semester only.
· Students are required to take one quarter each ofFACS and Technology Education
in eighth grade.
· Students will have six 54-minute periods for classes. Each of the full-year
c1asses will have abo.utl,211 minutes more of instructional/individual attention
time than in 2004-05 (that is nearly equivalent to 25 moredays of time).
· . Teachers will have five classes of 54 minutes each (four hours and thirty
minutes) plus the advisory of fifteen minutes and one individual prep period
(54 minutes). That is an increase of thirty-five minutes of teaching time and an
increase of seven minutes of individual prep. The team planning, however, wouM
no longer exist within the school day~
Vision Connection:
· Produce outstanding graduates who are ready to contribute and thrive in a wide
array of future pursuits.
· Practice prudent and innovative management of public resources.
· Challenge and support all students in the pursuit of the highest levels of
academic and personal achievement. Advocate for strong academic and strong
co-curricular programs for necessary for lifetime success.
· Demand the highest standards of professional excellence in every level of the
brganization.

· Advocate fQr strong academic and strong co-curricular programs as necessary
for lifetime success.
44
. Tailor learning experiences to the needs of individual learners.
. The Minnetonka School District will emphasize reading and writing as the
foundation of all future learning. Curriculum and instruction will be aimed at
developing in 'each student:
o A profound command of the English language
o A mastery of mathematics
o A mastery of scientific principles
o A thorough understanding of American history, our system of
government, and the importance of participating in the democratic process
o Global awareness through the study of world language, history, geography
and current events
o Appreciation of music, literature, visual andperfonning arts
o Participation in robust physical activity and health education
o Technological proficiency
o Life skills
Projected Impact on Staffing:
The changes in the staffmg for 'each respective curricular area are outlined below. There
will be some impact on staffing due to enrollment changes, and the rest are related to the
change in the number of periods in the day. The impact of enrollment changes in 2005-
06 causes reductions as follows:
o -.4 in language arts,
o -.4 science,
o -.4 social studies,
o -.6 math,
o -.2 music,
o -.2 physical education,
o -.2 art,
o -.2 health,
o -.1 FACS, .
o -.1 technology education,
o -.3world languages.
The shift to a six-period day will result in additional staff reductions as foI1ows:
o -2.0 physical education,
o -2.0 health,
o -1.0 art,
o -5.6 world languages,
o -1.5 FACS,
o -1.5 technology education.

41. Eliminate the Position of Assistant Superintendent for
Administration and Accountability
$128,000
Rationale:
There is a need to tighten district-wide administration and supervision in order
to meet budget constraints.
Impact of Reduction:
Work assigned as follows:
· Supervision of principals to Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources
or Superintendent. .
· Supervision of Special Services ~o Assistant Superintendent for Human
Resourc·es, Ex~cutiveDirector of Teaching and Learning, or Superintendent.
· Supervision of Technology to Executive Director of Teaching and Learning
or Superintendent.
· Oversight of accountability program to Executive Director of Teaching and
Learning.
· Supervision of Health Services to Executive Director of Special Services.
The work assigned to the Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources and Executive
Director of Teaching and Learning wòuld require further shifts in their assignments,
including less contact with employees and less oversight of curriculum, standards
development and instruction. The Superintendent's focus on the Strategic Plan,
legislative issues and direct work with the Board would be impacted by work assumed.
42. Eliminate Sixth Grade Instrumental and Strings Music Lessons
(1.0 FTE at MMW and .9 FTE at MME)
$ 92,000
Rationale:
· While a very valuable experience for students, instrumental and strings lessons·
are more costly than the District can afford at this time.
· Equity of reductions across the building level. ,
· There are other options for provi9ing lessons, and Community Education would
expand its offerings as well as invite others to provide private lessons.
· The plan would maintain whole group band and strings èxperiences.
Impact of Reduction:
· There is a significant impact on the skill development for students.
· There would be an impact on the overall quality ofthe music program.
· Lessons could become fee-based, befo:r:e or after school, or be offered through
Community Education.
· The District would also need to make other opportunities for lessons available
to students on-site.
· Students lose important opportunities to develop their musical talents.
47
Vision Connection:
· Challenge and support all students in the pursuit of their highest levels
of academic and personal achievement.
· Practice prudent and innovative management of public resources.
· Advocate' for strong academic and strong co-curricular programs for
necessary for lifetime success.
· Demand the highest standards of professional excellence in every level
of the organization.
· Tailor learning experiences to the needs of individual learners.
· Produce outstanding graduates who are ready to contribute and thrive in a wide
array of future pursuits.
· Create positive, enjoyable learning environments.
· Earn, and maintain, broad-based community support.
· Appreciation of music, literature, visual and performing arts.
43. Provide an Early Retirement Incentive Program
Cost/Benefit Unknown
Rationale:
· The District and the leadership of the teacher and administrative bargaining
groups are evaluating whether a modest financial incentive would encourage
more staff to retire than are currently planning on retiring at the end of the2004-
2005 school year.
· Properly designed, this early retirement incentive would pennit some cost
savings between the cost of retiring employees and the cost of replacement
employeès. Further, additional retirements would reduce the number of staffwho
would be laid off, arid would reduce the number of staff who would be shifted
from their current positions to other assignments.
,
Impact of Reduction:
· There could be a cost-effective means of encouraging a transition of experienced
staff who can detennine individually that the incentive is sufficient to retire, and
, thereby opening their position to a less-experienced staff member.
· Many valuable staff may choose to leave the District and negatively impact the
quality of education.
· Much of the overall payment for the incentive would go to staff who are already
anticipating leaving at the end of 2004-05 anyway, and the payment would be.an
added cost to the District without and benefit.
· The goal of such a plan is to produce enough "savings" on the differential
between the cost of the experienced employee leaving and the staff member
filling that vacancy as well as the cost of the respective incentive. Sometimes
such savings take more than a year to yield the results sought.
Please note: The Total of One through Forty-three is
$3,Z3S,1.80
48
Reductions Considered but not Recommended:
44. Charge A Portion of Assistant Superintendent for Administration and
Accountability to the Technology Levy
$ 50,000
Rationale:
A large portion of the work associated with this positiQn is related to planning and
direction of technology, both in the classroom and for administration. Transfer of
funding would recognize in the technology budget the cost of providing this
function.
Impact of Reduction:
It would reduce funds' available in the Technology fund for equipment, software and
technology infrastructure.
45. Increase High School Class Size by approximately an average
of Two Students (a reduction of6.4 FTEs)
$320,000
Rationale:
· Given the budgetary constraints facing the District in the future, coupled with
maintaining comprehensive high school curricula, average class size would be
increased as a strategy for reducing costs.
· Larger class sizes are manageable and competitive with area schools.
· Lab classes would be proportionally increased
· Predicted Reductions:
o Art -.6,
o Language Arts -1.9,
o Math -.8,
o Science -1.3,
o Social Studies -.3,
o Technical Education -.5, .
o FACS -.2,
o Physical Education -.2,
o World Languages -.6.
Impact of Reduction:
· The challenge of raising class size an average of2.0 per class is that the final
impact is not just two more students per class. Some classes cannot have more
students, so the remaining classes would have to be increased much more than
two. It is likely that this would result in some classes going .uP 8-10 students.
· Average class sizes that would be produced are manageable and more favorable
than class sizes in some area schools.
· Classrooms may become more physically crowded.
· Due to the increase in class enrollments, there exists the possibility that there
will be more requests from students to meet individually with teachers before or
after school for individual help.
49
· Strategic Plan goals of differentiation of instruction would become more
difficult to implement.
Vision Connection:
· Produce outstandinggradu,ates who are ready to contribute and thrive ina wide
array of futUre pursuits.
· Challenge and support all students in the pursuit of their highest levels of
academic and personal achievement.
· Practice prudent and innovative management of public resources.
· Foster the development of good character and social responsibility.
· Tailor learning experiences to the needs of individual learners.
· Create positive, enjoyable learning environments.
· Advocate for strong academic and strong co-curricular programs as necessary
for lifetime success'.
46. Across the Board 6.20/0 Reduction in Pay for All Employees·
Rationale:
An alternative to reductions in programs, services and staffing would be to reduce
the compensation of all employees across the böard. It would, of course, be
necessary to negotiate such adjustments with each individual bargaining unit.
Impact of Reduction:
There would be many implications of such an action, some of which could be
predicted and others would reveal themselves over time. It is highly likely that
many high quality staff in all different positions would leave the District
immediately or over the next couple of years. It would make recruiting for
replacements extremely difficult.
47. Reduce School Psych,ologists by .5 FTE
Rationale:
· Reduction in staffFTE to align with District needs.
· Changes in special education evaluation criteria permits teams some latitude
in the determination of the individual reassessment evaluation plans.
Impact of Reduction:
· Shift in evaluation responsibilities to other team members.
· Building Teams will become more discerning in responding to requests for
assessment.
· Building level administration will be asked to take on more special education
concerns and issues.
· Jþistrict student support services staff will have increased responsibilities in
~ddressing parental and staff concerns and inquiries.
Vision Connection:
· Tailor learning experiences to the needs of individual learners.
$3,200,000
$ 24,000
50
· Will challenge and support all students in the pursuit of their highest levels
of academic and personal achievement.
· We will acknowledge that students' abilities may differ from subject to
subject and will provide opportunities accordingly.
· We will identify and respond to specialleaming needs as early as possible,
48. Reduce Social Workers Positions at the Middle Schools
(reduce .5 FTE in Social Work)
$ 24,000
Rationale:
, . Reduction will not impact classroom size.
· Reduction impact can be accommodated through other personnel.
· Teachers and administrators will be working more directly with at risk students
and families. . .
· Potential for increased collaboration with community agencies.
· Guidance counselors are assigned to middle schools.
Impact of Reduction:
· Students emotional needs will need to be met by classroom teachers, building
administration, other building level staff.
· Connections to community resources will be reduced.
· Building administration and special education administration would have increased
involvement.
· Special education staff workload increased in assessment and direct service.
· Increased work load for guidance counselors.
Vision Connection:
· Foster the development of good character and social responsibílity.
· Challenge and support all students in the pursuit oftheir highest levels of
academic and personal achievement.
· Create positive, enjoyable learning environments.
49. Reduce Elementary Non-Personnel (supplies, etc.)
$32,000
Rationale:
The elementary schools have under-spent the FY04 budgets by more than $32,000,
and it would appear that those funds could be reduced in the future. Unfortunately,
the new textbook adoptions require more consumable materials in the future.
Impact of Reduction:
Need for consumables as part of the textbook adoptions.
50. Eliminate Position of Custodial Supervisor
(and transfer staff to MHS custodial position)
$ 37,000
Rationale:
Reduce overhead cost to operate the Buildings and Grounds Department.
51
Impact of Reduction: .
The Custodial Supervisor is responsibk for housekeeping services throughout the
district. Regularly working noon to 8:30 PM, the Supervisor hires, trains, and
evaluates custodial personnel. The Supervisor makes regular visits to each building
making certain that a high level of building cleanliness is maintained. Elimination
of position would transfer all responsibilities to the Buildings and Grounds
Supervisor resulting in much of the day-to-day monitoring of housekeeping
operations lost. Principals will have to assist in monitoring cleaning quality.
Vision Connection:
. Outstanding maintenance and energy efficiency also indicates to the community
that their investment is being maximally utilized for both present and future
generations. It is imperative that the resources of the District be used so that all
buildings and grounds are safe, clean, healthy, and attractive places that stimulate
learning, encourage physical activity, and provide essential gathering places for the
community as a whole.
51. Reduce High School Counseling by an Additional .5 Position
$ 24,000
Rationale:
· The use of flexible sumÍner h9urs will help relieve some peak period work.
· Proposed .5 reduction maintains competitive ratios with other school districts.
· Arena scheduling will reduce the amount of schedule change requests.
· Creating a strong Web presence should relieve a good number of daily
telephone requests.
· Restructuring current counsefing model to better address family and student
needs.
· Budgetary constraints cause the school to reprioritize and restructure guidance
and counseling workloads in the best interests of students, staff and parents.
· To a certain degree non-teaching certified reductions minimizes certified
teaching reductions.
· Proposed reduction provides for equity across all employee classifications.
ImpactofReducûon:
· Proposed reduction calls for restructuring of current counseling model to better
address student and family needs.
· . Caseloads will Increase per counselor and students and parents will need to
provide the counseling staff with more lead time on college preparation
activities.
· . The implementation of flexible SÚI11111er work hours will help relieve some peak
period work.
· Reduction in the number of schedule change requests due to arena scheduling
~nnm. .
· 1?roposed reduction calls for creating a strong Web presence that could reduce
the number of daily telephone contacts.
· Caseloads will increase and response to student needs, especially college
recommendations for seniors, could take longer--unless counselors adjust to the
changes with more creative wode plans.
52
· Responses to parent inquires could slow, unless counselors adjust to the
changes with more creative work plans.
Vision Connection:
· Produce outstanding graduates who are ready tücontribute and thrive in a wide
array of future pursuits.
· Challenge and support an students in the pursuit of their highest levels of
academic and personal achievement.
· Practice prudent and innovative management of public, resources.
· Demand the highest standards of professional excellence in every level of the
organization.
· Tailor learning experiences to the needs of individual learners.
· Create positive, enjoyable learning environments.
52. Restructuring of Staff Development Times and Coordination
$ 48,000
Rationale:
· Reduce teacher time from classrooms, which provides more direct instructional
time with the primary teacher and reduces reserve teacher costs.
· The delivery of staff development opportunities will undergo study and revision
in an effort to provide high quality without as much impact on the school day.
· More summer programs will be used.
· This will change the use of the Coordinator of Staff Development and pennit
more involvement in curriculum revision.
Impact of Reduction:
· Emphasis on a summer staff development workshop aì1d curriculum writing
meetings.
· More outside of duty time would need coordination beyond the current contract.
· More opportunities for job embedded staff development during the year.
· The changes in the delivery model will affect teachers and other staff members
who are involved in programs.
· There will also be an impact on students as fewer days of teacher absence will
be incurred.
· The quality of programs can be enhanced.
· There will be a more effective use of coordinator time.
Vision Connection:
· Teachers are prepared in their subject area.
· Create positive, enjoyable learning environments.
· Practice prudent and innovative management of public resources. .
· Demand the highest standards of professional excellence in every level of
the organization.

.. Demand the highest standards of professional excellence in every level of
the organization.
· Create positive, enjoyable learning environments.
· Earn, and maintain, broad-based community support.
54. Reduce Special Education Lead Teachers by a Total of .6 FTE
$ 30,000
Rationale:
· Reduction in staffFTE to align with Districtlbuilding needs.
· Reduction of meetings between district student support services and building
lead staff.
· Continue to address due process compliance at each building.
· Improved monitoring using technology.
Impact of Reduction:
· Increased responsibility on building leads and other District special education
staff to take on more special education concerns and issues.
· Building level administration will be asked to take on more special education
concerns and issues.
· District student support services staff will have increased responsibilities in
addressing parental and staff concerns and inquiries.
· Potential increased liability in due-process related concerns.
· Small special education lead FTE at each site may be difficult to accomplish
for staffing adjustments.
· Increased challenge in meeting due process requirements.
54
Vision Connection:
· Del11and the highest standards of professional excellence in every level of the
organization.
· Create positive, enjoyable learning environments.
· Practice prudent and innovative management of public resources.
55. Reduce One Secretary in Main Office (High School).

56. Reduce High School Secretarial Support in the Attendance Office
by Three Hours (eliminate part-time attendance position)
$ 7,150
Rationale:
Two staff could handle current workload if attendance guidelines are tightened.
Impact of Reduction:
Two current staff members would cover all attendance duties.
57. Increase Elementary Class Size, Along with Addressing Reduced
Enrollment (13.8 total classroom and specialist positions) Reduction in
classrooms by school:
a Clear Springs: -1.0,
a Deephaven: -2.5,
a· Excelsior: -1.0,
a Groveland: -1.0,
a Minnewashta: -3.0,
a Scenic Heights: -3.8
for a total of12.3 FTE
And, a reduction in specialists due to the decrease in classrooms: A total of 1.5 FIE
$515,000
55
Specific class size averages in each school are as follows:
Clear Springs Deephaven Excelsior Groveland Minnewashta Scenic Heights
Kindergarten 18.75 22.5 19.5 17.75 19.4 21.0
Grade One 19.25 18.75 19.5 23.67 20.0 21.0

RatiOJtale:
· Increaes in class sizes can be made without serious impact on students.
· Allows neighborhood schools to be intact for families.
· Current program remains unchanged.
· Still within or better class size compared to metro average.
· Increased options for space utilization are available at each_ building due to empty
rooms.
Impact of Reduction:
· Decreased opportunity for individualized student instruètion and increased

· Create positive, enjoyable learning environments.
58. Restructure Instructional, Time of Elementary Media and Decrease
Physical Education
$107,500
Rationale:
· Restructuring of Media Specialist provides prep for 25 minutes per week per
section.
· Physical Education time would be reduced, and the prep time coverage would
be assigned to the Media Specialist.
· Independent Investigation responsibility shift to Media Team.
I
· ~trengthen research component to enhance diffeFentiation.
· Further equalize specialist offering among art, music and physical education
by reduction of Physical Education from 100 to 75 minutes per week.
56
Impact of Reduction:
· Students would have a dramatic reduction in physical education experiences.
· There would be an impact on the physical development and fitness of students.
· Would reduce 2.15 FTE in PhysiciÜ Education.
· Equalized specialist minutes in Art, Music, PE and Media.
· Increased direct instructional responsibilities for the Media Specialist.
Vision Connection:
· Challenge and support all students in the pursuit of the highest levels of
academic and personal achievement.
· Tailor learning experiences to the needs of individual learners.
· Produce outstanding graduates who are ready to contribute and thrive in a
wide array of future pursuits.
· Participation in robust physical activity and health education.
· . Technological proficiency.
. Life skills.
59. Reduce The Number of District Chair Positions
$ 21,173
Rationale:
· Leadership in departments throughout the District must be involved in
curriculum revision and implementation.
· Leadership in the biggest departments would get support across buildings.
Impact of Reduction:
Work assigned as follows:
· The specific coordination of district-wide programs would be assigned to the
Executive Director of Teaching and Learning.
The assignment would require further shifts of responsibilities, as follows:
· District Chair positions would need to be reduced and restructured to focus
on the requirements of the Curriculum Improvement Cycle during the
Study year only.
· The Curriculum Improvement Cycle might need to be lengthened with
fewer subject areas under review each year, designating State academic
standards and testing requirement areas as priorities.
· Elimination or major cuts would reduce teacher leadership to implement
Standards, solve implementation problem, coordinate and support
teachers, establish assessments and accountability measures, facilitate
curriculum-specific staff development, etc.
60. Audit/Adjust the Caseloads for District Speech/Language Pathologists
$ 20,000·
Rationale:
· Number of students· served is relatively large for a district this size.
57
Impact of Reduction:
· Current caseload exceeds metro area guideline of 40: 1.
· There is already a challenge in hiring and maintaining staff, and this could
compound the matter.
. Challenge in meeting IEP goals and objectives.
Vision Connection:
· Tailor learning experiences to the needs of individual learners.
· Challenge and support all students in the pursuit oftheir highest levels of
academic and personal achievement.
61. Close District Service Center and Relocate Staff
The facility is financed by the Minnetonka Economic Development Authority. Until
the debt is paid off in tWo years the property is technically owned by the City of. .
Minnetonka,
· The building is located in a residential area and occupies the location under a
conditional use permit. When the District terminates use of the facility the
conditional use permit expires with zoning reverting to residential. A new buyer
would be required to request of the City re-zoning of the property if the purchaser
intended to continue use of the property as office space.
. The top floor of the facility provides office space of approximately 14,000 SF with
the lower level at approximately 10,000 SF. The area under the Community Room
and MCES is not excavated.
· Annual operational costs, including utilities and custodial services, runabout
$60,000.
· It is estimated space would rent for approximately $20 per square focit.
Rationale:
Would reduce maintenance and operations expenses.
Impact of Reduction:
· District would no longer eligible for alternative facility funding. Closing DSC
would reduce total district wide square footageto below 1.5 million square feet.
· Space must be found to accommodate offices, the science center, and the
curriculum library.
· The design of the facility was intended to provide better communication between
departments with all offices on the same level. That could be lost, depe:qding
upon the location of the new office space.
· On the positive side, district office staff could be in contact with students on a
daily basis.
· One option would be to refurbish space at DEC and re~locate Explorer 'programs
to regular attendance centers to accommodate some ofthe DSC programs.

62. Close the Warehouse/ Tech Center and Have Direct Delivery
· Facility, 7800 SF in size, rests on 1.68 acres at comer ofHWy 101 and Hanus Road;
· Annual operating expenses for utilities are about $12,000. Custodial duties are
shared among existing warehouse staff.
· Technology Center and support staff are located in facility.
· District maintenance staff, central receiving, and the technology center are ·housed in
the facility. All equipment deliveries are to this building, inventoried, tagged and
then delivered to the appropriate building.
· Central receiving assures the district is able to accurately track equipment purchases,
maintain Üs fixed asset inventory (requirement for GASH 34) and track the location
of each item. .
· The area is zoned residential (R-l) occupying the based on a conditional use permit.
If the property is sold it would revert to residential zoning. Approximately ten years
ago city officials related the city would not re-zone the property as anything other
J
than residential. The property can be sub-divided into up to three lots depending
upon the rrontage on Hanus Road. Each lot must have a minimum of 110' of
rrontage.
· If sold the cost of removing the building along with underground fuel tanks would be
factored into the sales price. Based upon past analysis, it is anticipated the site would
yield sufficient space for two residential homes.
$29,000
Rationale:
Reduce operations and maintenance expenses.
Impact of Reduction:
· It would be necessary to re-do the wide area network system to accommodate
re-location of the equipment hub. The DSC, where the Science Center is
located, is an alternate location. Or MHS would be another location.
· Would loose central receiving and inventory control. Control of eqltipment
deliveries and inventory would become more . challenging. It would be
necessary to devise a system to control the inventory and tracking of
equipment purchases.
· Re-locate the maintenance services housed at the warehouse to the basement
of Excelsior. Currently that spaced is used for storage. Conversion to
maintenance shops would require some renovation.

more than pays for its cost.

help solve the long-term financial challenges of the District.
· It is critical to further efforts to communicate with the community
regarding financial needs. Reduction in media placements which support
community relations and district marketing plan.
· Abandonment of Board goal to expand video/cable presence highlighting
student opportunities and achievements and supporting district marketing plan.
· Reduce communications publication schedules for parents and community;
decreasing knowledge and support for district initiatives.
· Effective communications will be essential for the continued success ofthe
Minnetonka School District.
· In order to progress from a successful past into a world-class future,
we must expand communications efforts.
· We will insist that communications be a planned and systemic operational
function, grounded in ethical decision making and designed to help

Note: The Communications Specialist position was reduced in previous years due
to cost containment. Over the years the decrease in communication contributed to a
67
failed referendum in 2001 and substantially declining emollment from 2000 - 2003.
A direct effort to increase communications and target mark;eting efforts for the
District resulted in an increase of 75 open enrollment students in 2004. The value
of those students alone is about $450,000. Applications for the.2005 school year
are currently exceeding the 2004 pace. The District's communication efforts have
been strategically targeted to increase open enrollment and reattract families from
private schools. Increasing enrollment from these two targeted audiences more than
covers the cost of the communi6ation specialist position, enables schools to
maintain smaller class sizes, and increases understanding and support for the school
district and its students.
