COUNCIL WORKSHOP MINUTES
SPECIAL MEETING
7:00 p.m. October 28, 1997
Members Present: Mayor Ristow, Councilmembers Cordes, Fitch, Gamer, and Strachan.
Also Present: City Attorney Grannis, City Administrator Erar, Public Works Director Mann,
Finance Director Roland, Community Development Director Olson and Engineering Consultant
Glen Cook. Various staff members from the City Engineering Consulting Firm of Boonestroo,
Rosene, Anderlik and Associates were also present.
Meeting was called to order by Mayor Ristow at 7:00 p.m. at the Dakota Electric Cooperative
facility conference room. The topics for the workshop, in order of discussion, were Muncipal
Control of Public Infrastructure in Private Development and the Proposed Code of Ethics
Ordinance.
Municioal Control of Public Infrastructure in Private Develooment
A visual presentation was made to Council by staff from Boonestroo outlining a variety of issues
associated with the City assuming engineering control of public infrastructure design and
construction in private development. A number of issues were discussed including financial
liability, quality concerns, assumption of risk by the municipality, examples of other
communities that utilize this approach and graphic pictures of infrastructure problems observed
by the City's Engineering Division in a number of private developments.
Upon formal conclusion of the presentation, Council took the opportunity to ask a variety of
questions regarding financial liability the City would assume if this approach were used. In
addition, questions concerning developer reaction to this proposed change, the implementation
process, the M.S. 429 Special Assessment process, benefits and problems associated with this
type of construction management approach and, in general, how this new approach would
resolve Council and staff concerns of ensuring quality construction management over the long-
term for the benefit of City residents in these developments.
In response to these concerns, the following information was provided to Council on these
concerns.
The City would assume no additional financial risk associated with this approach. Staff could
develop a formula that would help minimize municipal financial risk on a sliding scale during
the early stages of private development proposals. In addition, utilizing the M.S. 429 special
assessment process would actually guarantee recovery of engineering and construction costs, and
serve to reduce staff involvement in the collection of unpaid developer invoices. It was pointed
out that a number of other cities, Woodbury, Apple Valley and Rosemount, utilize this approach
very successfully.
While developer reaction to this new approach could be negative, it was pointed out that a
number of developers who currently work in the City also work in other communities where this
approach is used. It was discussed that staff would assume the responsibility and be accountable
for meeting reasonable developer time schedules, and that the City has developed a private
development process that outlines responsibilities of both staff and the developer in the
development process. Ostensibly, this approach would be more efficient, guarantee a high level
of quality control, is developer friendly, and would be more accountable to the end users-the
future residents of the community.
The implementation of this approach would, if approved by Council, be applied towards new
developments, as opposed to existing developments that are nearing final completion.
The ultimate purpose of this approach is to ensure quality control and minimize long-term
municipal risk in the final assumption of the public infrastructure in private developments. It was
stated that the policy objective of this new development approach would be to safeguard the
public interest and minimize future costs and problems to the benefit of future residents as the
final customer.
Upon consideration of the information presented, Council requested that staff develop an
implementation plan to be reviewed at a later date for possible Council adoption. A brief recess
was called.
Proposed Code of Ethics Ordinance
The second topic was introduced by the City Administrator. As the proposed Code of Ethics
ordinance had been presented to Council at an earlier meeting, Council had had an opportunity to
review the ordinance draft and was aware of the major policy issues contained within the
ordinance. The administrator reviewed a change in the proposed ordinance addressing previous
concerns of how elected officials could be removed from office for violating the Code of Ethics.
It was the opinion of the City Attorney and administrator that removal provisions in the
ordinance would be problematic for the City, and should be deleted. It was discussed that state
statute would guide the City in this particular area.
Council reviewed the ordinance and discussed a variety of issues associated with the need for a
local ordinance. Opinions concerning why this ordinance should and should not be considered
were discussed at length. After considerable debate, Councilmember Strachan requested that the
proposed ordinance be placed on the December I, 1997 Council meeting agenda. In addition,
copies of the proposed ordinance will be distributed to City boards and commissions for review
prior to final Council adoption.
Meeting was adjourned at 10:25 p.m.

approximately 65 units, whereas, 65 single-family lots are proposed to be developed not only on the multi-
family use acreage, but also within the East Farmington 4th addition.
. Include the recently annexed Sauber property within the PUD. This property was annexed in the City after
approval by the City Council on September 15th. and will provide additional land acreage for the proposed 65
single-family lots in the East Farmington 4th addition. The existing house on the Sauber property will remain
and will be connected to City sewer and water within one year.
. Create a new typical block configuration with 18 lots within a block measuring 360' X 385 '. This block will be
located on the east side of Twelfth Street in Outlot D.
The City Attorney has reviewed and approved the proposed amendments and the Planning Commission approved
the amendments at their meeting of October 14, 1997 with the following contingencies:
1) The newly created block located in Outlot D shall be site specific to that location only.
2) The Developer shall be required to maintain the remaining multi-family areas shown on the original PUD.
3) The Developer should pursue the development of multi-family areas as soon as possible.
4) Additional engineering information must be addressed by the Developer.

7. PUBLIC HEARING - REZONE GENSTAR PROPERTY
The property is currently zoned R-l and consists of 396 acres and is included in the MUSA Expansion application

The Dakota County HRA staff and representatives from the four member cities recently met and reached a tentative
agreement to modify the formula to have half of the distribution based on HUD formula which relies heavily on

11. CITIZEN PETITION - RESPONSE TO COMPLAINT - DAKOTA COUNTY LUMBER
A complaint was received by the City Council at its roundtable session on October 20th concerning dust, debris and
screening problems associated with Dakota County Lumber Company located at 28 8th Street. The complaint was
signed by a number of neighbors adjacent to Dakota County Lumber Company. City Staff met with Mr. Steve
Finden, owner of Dakota County Lumber Company, on October 27th to discuss the concerns raised by residents
adjacent to the property. Staff is to continue working with Mr. Finden.
12. TRAFFIC CONTROL ISSUE AT THIRD & ELM STREETS
MOTION by Gamer, second by Ristow to adopt RESOLUTION NO. R121-97(b) requesting the instaHation ofa
four-way stop at the intersection of Third and Elm Streets and to authorize the removal of the two boulevard trees in
the 200 block of Elm Street on the south side, to facilitate the instaHation of those signs. APIF, MOTION
CJ\RRIED.
13. REVISED WEED ORDINANCE
A proposed ordinance was presented to the City Council reflecting revisions to the current weed ordinance
addressing the following issues:
1) Slope areas: Slopes that are in excess of 3: I (33%), would be allowed to be left in a natural state
due to the safety concerns relative to mowing on a steep slope.
2) Ponds/Wetlands: Property around ponds or wetlands may be left in a natural state and in those
areas where the city owns the land surrounding the pond or wetland, mowing would be the responsibility and at the
discretion of the City.
3) Natural/Wildlife areas: Natural areas, including Parks, wetlands/ponds, unplatted land and other
City designated natural areas would be allowed to be left in a natural state.
4) Natural Areas on Platted Lots: Natural areas would be allowed on platted lots in the backyard
subject to a six foot setback from property lines. This would allow people to have a natural area in their yard yet
leaves a buffer for an adjacent neighbor that would not find a natural area desirable in their yard.
Staff was directed to continue research with the DNR and private firms to gather more information on natural
grasses.
14. RIGHT-OF-WAY ORDINANCE
Mr. Thomas Creighton, a telecommunications consultant, presented a proposed ordinance addressing significant
regulatory control elements and provide the City with an effective means to safeguard and preserve local goverment
concerns. A final version of this ordinance will be presented to the Council for adoption in the near future.
IS. AMEND CABLE FRANCHISE ORDINANCE- EXTENSION
The cities of Fannington, Apple Valley, and Rosemount have been negotiating with Marcus Cable for the renewal
of a cable franchise agreement. The expiration date of the City's cable franchise ordinance with Marcus Cable is
December 6,1997. As it appears that negotiations with Marcus Cable will not be completed prior to the December
6,1997 renewal date, the City will need to extend the current agreement for another twelve (12) months. A five (5)
percent franchise fee has been adopted by a majority of cities in the State of Minnesota and has been allowed under
Federal law for at least the last thirteen years. This is a key component of the franchise renewal document currently
under negotiation with Marcus Cable. MOTION by Gamer, second by Cordes to adopt ORDINANCE NO. 097-
409 extending the expiration date to December 31, 1998 and increasing the Franchise Fee to 5%. APIF, MOTION
CARRIED.

Re: Cameron Woods Plat Filing
Dear Council Members:
On April 7th, 1997, the Council approved the final plat of Cameron
Woods. Since that time most of the minor issues associated with the
final plat have been cleared up. However, the County has yet to
resolve the County Road #31 (Pilot Knob Road) Easement issue with me.
At this time I would request an extension of time to March 1st, 1998,
to resolve this matter and have the plat filed.
If you require any additional information please have staff contact me
at their earliest convenience.

INTRODUCTION
Each year certain utility accounts are deemed delinquent without recourse for collection other than
certification to the tax rolls.
DISCUSSION
Attached is a list of those accounts, active, closed and custom service which are delinquent and
uncollectable through other means. Typically, these accounts are certified to subsequent year's
taxes on the parcel to which service was provided. All parties involved have been notified by mail
of the delinquency and certification process.
BUDGET IMPACT
As these services have been provided, revenues to offset the cost of services provided must be
collected. Certification of these accounts virtually guarantees collection of these revenues, which
total $9,730.29.
ACTION REQUIRED
Adopt the attached resolution certifying the assessments to the 1998 taxes of the properties
indicated.

PROSPLlNTS
Prosplints are quick and easy to apply and
remove. They are made of shock absorbing
naterial that conforms quickly. No metal stays,
which eliminates bending, saves time and allows
a shadow free X-ray. Prosplints are 100% non-
absorbent making fluids easy to remove and
clean with soap and warm water. The splints are
universal in design and may be used on either
left or right side limbs in case of multiple injury.
Prosplints are economical and long lasting. The
set is complete with carrying case.

CLEANING INSTRUCTIONS
Prosplints are constructed of a non-absorbing
closed cell foam which makes them easy to clean
and maintain. Cleaning should be done in a timely
manner to prevent staining by using soap and
water, alcohol, diluted hypochlorite solutions, or
other commercial hospital grade cleaning prod-
ucts. We recommend Cavicide Spray Cleaner
which is fast, convenient, and very effective.
Simply apply the cleaning product and wipe down.
The velcro straps should also be cleaned in a
timely manner and may need a little more atten-
tion than the splint itself.

Prosplints are for children and are sized accord-

SUBJECT: Request to waive penalty &
interest on special assessment
DATE:
November 17,1997
INTRODUCTION
Staff has received a request from Marshall and Caroline Hager to waive the interest and penalty
on their outstanding special assessment. Their letter is attached.
DISCUSSION
The special assessment outstanding on the property in question is for the Pine Knoll project. The
current year's installment is $777.86; $402.00 principal and $375.86 interest. The total
outstanding on this special assessment is $4,824.00. Staff spoke with Amy Koethe at Dakota
County and the Hagers have a remaining balance on the property taxes of $857.50 (including
penalty of $48.53), as of November 12th.
The letter from the Hagers indicates that the Eagles have agreed to pay the special assessment
on their behalf. The Hagers are requesting that the City waive the interest and penalty on the
special assessment.
BUDGET IMPACT
The interest payable on the special assessment is fundamental to the repayment of the bonds
issued to fund the Pine Knoll project. The penalty is charged by the County on any late payment
of taxes and it is not in the City's power to waive that penalty.
ACTION REQUIRED
Deny the Hager's request to waive interest and penalty on their special assessment.

SUBJECT: 1997 CDBG Agreement
DATE: November 17, 1997
INTRODUCTION
The City is required to enter into a Sub grantee Agreement with the Dakota County HRA as a
condition of receiving and administering CDBG funds in 1997.
DISCUSSION
The City will receive $153,012 in CDBG Funds in 1997. The City is required to enter into this
agreement because several of the CDBG funded activities for 1997 will be carried out by City
employees. This is the case with the Senior Center Coordinator activity as well as some of the
ADA compliance projects that will be undertaken.
The Agreement spells out the program requirements for the administration of the activities that
are funded with CDBG funds. This includes the Davis Bacon wage rates that are required to be
paid on the construction projects utilizing CDBG funds and the requirement to pass all CDBG
funds through the City's accounting system and include these funds in the City's annual audit.
The County HRA is scheduled to act on this agreement on November 18, 1997.
BUDGET IMPACT
The funds that are to be received in 1997 were contained in the 1997 Budget. The City is not
scheduled to receive funds in 1998.
ACTION REQUESTED
Approval of the Subgrantee Agreement with the Dakota County HRA for administration of the
1997 CDBG Funds.
Respectfully Submitted.

RE: CDBG Subgrantee Agreement
Dear Dave:
Enclosed are two copies of the Subgrantee Agreement between the City of Farmington and the Dakota
County HRA for the administration ofthe City's projects funded through the Dakota County
Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. It is necessary to enter into this Agreement
for the 1997 CDBG Program projects because the City will carry out some or all of the activities
funded with its own employees. This is definitely the case for the Senior Citizens Coordinator activity,
and may be the case for some of the ADA compliance work you are carrying out.
Also attached are one full set ofthe Exhibits to the Subgrantee Agreement. Exhibits A through Dare
documents that are grant-year-specific, and the remainder are regulations that apply to administration
of the program. One of the key requirements stemming out of this Agreement is the need for the City
to pass all CDBG funds received through its accounting system, and have your annual audit report on.
the funds.
Please have the Agreement approved by the City CounciL have both properly executed. and retum
them both to me, retaining the Exhibits in your records. I will have the Dakota County HRA board of
Commissioners approve the Agreement on November 18. 1997, contingent upon City approval.
Regardless of the date of approval. the Agreement is retroactively effective to July L 1997.
Please call me if you have questions or comments.
Sincerely.

Award Towing Contract
DATE:
November 17,1997
INTRODUCTION I DISCUSSION
Pursuant to City Council action the contract for towing services for the City of Fannington was advertised
for competitive bids. Once advertised the City is obligated to accept the lowest responsible bid. Bids were
accepted for two weeks with a deadline of 5:00 PM on November 7, 1997. Bids were opened by staff at
5:00 PM on Friday. Three contractors submitted bids. All bidders were invited to attend the bid opening.
The bid tabulation has been attached for Council review. As you can see the low bidder is Dakota County
Towing, the City's current towing contractor.
This bid will remain in effect for a period of at least one year or until the bid is requested to be re-opened
by the current contractor or any other interested party.
BUDGET IMPACT
Towing services are included in the budget process and will be unaffected by this contract.
ACTION REOUESTED
Award towing contract to Dakota Towing.
Respectfully submitted,

TO: HRA Chairman and Board
FROM: John F. Erar. City Administrator
SUBJECT: HRA By-La\vs Modificaton
DATE: February 10. 1997
INTRODUCTION
As the Board is aware, Chairman Fitch has suggested that the Board composition be modified to
include local citizen representation.
DISCUSSION
A review of the statute controlling Board composition suggests that inidividual terms be
appointed for five year periods, with the exception of initial terms which would be appointed for
periods of 1,2,3,4 and 5 years. Chairman Fitch has indicated that three of the Board positions
be tilled by local citizens and that the two remaining Board positions be retained by Council
members.
The issues at this point include the following:
.
A recommendation by the Board that the membership by-laws be modified to accommodate
the proposed change in Board representation. This ,recommendation would then be forwarded
to the City Council for review and adoption by amending Chapter 8, Section 2-8-2. subd. (d)
of the Housing and Redevelopment ordinance which would formally authorize the change in
terms of office.
A decision by the Board on when the change would occur and when the process would begin
to recruit and interview prospective citizens.
It is my understanding that Council would then appoint the three citizens for period of 1. ::
and 3 years. As these terms expire. the Council would then complete the next two
appointment rotations as four and five year terms. Any appointment thereafter would be for
tive year terms.
It should be specified what type or criteria anci;or consideranons for appointing the t\vo
Council members to the HRA Board would be used by CounCIl.
Finally. it would be advisable to conrirm the process under the HRA By-Laws dealing with
l10W the HRA Chairperson would be chosen. Cnder the current By-Laws. the authority shall
choose the Chair and Vice-Chair. It is assumed that these position designations are voted
upon by the Board. This may not be an issue for the current Council. ho\vever. conceivably
,he Board could choose non-Council members as both Chair and Vice-Chair. The purpose of

SUBJECT: 1997 Budget Reaooroonatlons
DATE:
Novemoer 17.1997
INTRODUCTION
A fiscal review of the 1997 budget suggests a need to revise the adopted revenue and
expenditure levels to more closely reflect department service levels. The attached financial
analysis will be reviewed with Council and recommended reappropriations will be presented.
DISCUSSION
The adopted 1997 budget was prepared and submitted to Council in August of 1996. Calculations
in that budget were based on information from the first six months of 1996. over a year and a half
ago. A budget is a financial plan which the City must live within. However, many things may
change in an 18 month period and what might have been a reasonable revenue or expenditure
assumption in June of 1996 may not hold true in October of 1997.
Therefore, an annual reappropriation is done in the fourth quarter of the year to best reflect the
City's operations for the year and head off any revenue shortfall. Management staff evaluates the
accuracy of their budget projections versus nine or ten months of actual operations, and are able
to reduce or reallocate their resources. Likewise, revenues are reviewed and any excess or
shortfall is anticipated and provided for.
The 1997 adopted budget called for $3,516,842 of General Fund expenditures. After review, staff
is confident that the actual expenditures will be $33,393 less than adopted budget. or $3.483.449.
This reflects significant effort by City staff to "live within our means'. and still provide excellent
service to our citizens.
The revenue projected in the 1997 adopted budget was $3,619.396. Unfortunately, revised
orojections show that 1997 will have revenues of $3.488.605 - a S 130,791 shortfall from the
budget. This shortfall is due primarily to two factors; 1 )reduced admmistrative and engineering
fees collected and 2)reduced building permit revenues. Administrative and engineenng fees nave
not come in as projected due to significant public projects which were oUdgeted for but not
ordered (Henderson, Main Street). A similar snortfall hapoened In 1996. However. the 1998
Duoget does not include these fees as pan of the General Fund bUdget. effectIve IV eliminating me
City's reliance on these very volatile revenues. Building permit revenues Will come In
aooroxlmately $40,000 less than oroiected due to a metro wlae SlOW aown In oUliding. Most cmes
1 the south metro exoenenced a 15%-25% drop In new hOUSing starts this year.
"-ne 1997 adomed buaget caiied for an increase In the funa balance of $102.554. The revlsea
:8venues ana expenditures WOUld designate approximately S5.156 for the fund balance. Although
this is far oelow our exoectatlons of increaSing the fund balance reserve. it is not deficit soendlng.
Staff continues to be concerned with the state of the General Funa Balance. which remains far
below recommended ievels.

SUBJECT: Ward System
DATE: November 17, 1997
INTRODUCTION
During the team building workshop held earlier this fall, the subject of establishing a Ward
System was introduced by the Council.
DISCUSSION . (;
Staff researched the possibility of establishing a w~m and the timing that would be
necessary to do so. The League of Minnesota Cities was contacted and informed us that only
home rule charter cities or statutory cities that had wards via special legislation or by another
provision of law, prior to the 1973-74 switch from villages to cities and which were therefore
grandfathered in by M.S. 412.023, subdA, are able to hold ward based elections. (Farmington is
a statutory City.)
The League informed me that this is a question asked by other cities periodically and provided
the attached correspondence as background information.
ACTION REQUIRED
None, this is for information only.

November 9, 1989 WARD SYSTEM IN STATUTORY CITIES.

Dear steve,
I admit to having spent a great amount of time trying to justify
my statement to you concerning wards in statutory cities. Even
after speaking to you for the last timeJ I continued to search,
enlisting the aid of two or three other staff people. They all.~
came to the same dead ends I had come to. f=CNVlM'v'j\C\A ,'., "'. ',- ~..<~_
I still feel my statement that your typical ~af~it~ {s.'~
not authorized to establish a ward system was correct, however
weak my supporting arguments may be. Those supporting arguments
are these: 1.) There is no statutory authority clearly allowing
statutory cities in general to have wards. 2.) M.S. 412.021,
Subd. 2 could be read as prohibiting elections by wards ("No
candidate...shall run for a particular term..."). 3.) M.S.
412.023, Subd. 4 states that notwithstanding any other provision
of the statutory city code a former special law city can
continue to have wards. One could infer from this that other
statutory cities can't. 4.) FurthermoreJ that same section says
that prior to september 1, a council of a former special law
city can abolish the ward system "and provide for a council
constituted as in statutory cities generally." 5.) At least two
of our publications make the categorical statementJ as did I,
that statutory cities generally can't have wards. Unfortunately,
they provide no documentation. (See enclosures.)
There seems to be a fair amount of staff consensus on two
points: first, that my assertion was correct, and second, that
the evidence supporting it is not nearly as clear as we have
all assumed.
None of the above analysis gets to the question of whether a
former special law city that abandoned its special law status in
1972 (prior to Ch. 123, Laws 1973) and got its own charter can
now abandon its charter and retain its ward system under
412.023. I suspect the final answer to that question will be
that Jordan can't pull it off (or at least that the city's
.
action probably would not withstand a challenge should one be
made), and that ultimately the city will Irequire special
legislation to retain its wards. I repeat stan Peskar's
observation that a city the size of Jordan would be better off
without wards, and without a seven-member council.
(If Jordan ever does seek special legislation for a ward system,
perhaps it would be advisable at the same time to seek similar
legislation authorizing the city to retain its seven-member
governing body, since we never did pin that one down too
clearly, either. I opened up another hornet's nest by
mentioning to another staff member, Ann Houle, that Jordan
intended to retain its previously existing larger council, and
she categorically stated that such action would be illegal. I
think there is room for differing opinions on that point, but it
does suggest that this is another gray area that might benefit
from clarification as well.) (Ann is the same individual who
responded to Jordan's city administrator that the charter will
take effect 30 days after the election. Apparently she based
that response on 410.12, Subd. 4, read together with 410.30.)
SOJ there you are. I'm sorry I wasn't able to provide a clearer
response to your question, but I hope this will help. I hope too
that you had a good trip to northeastern Minnesota. If I also
steered you wrong on the Hotel CoatesJ I'm in big trouble.
Sincerely,

***** Addendum *****
Joe Mansky at the elections division of the Secretary of State's
office said that he agrees with the interpretation in the preceding
memo. The issue of a statutory city's ability to have a ward based
election system is still raised at his office from time to time and he
has always informed cities that only home rule charter cities or
statutory cities that had wards via special legislation or by another
provision of law prior to the 1973-74 switch from villages to cities
and wbiqh were therefore qrandfathered in by M.S. 412.023, subd.4, are
able to hold ward based elections. Short of adopting a home rule
charter or receiving special legislation, it appears that the only
way to receive authority to create wards now would be by order of the
municipal board, and such an order can only be granted in certain
situations involving the incorporation of a new city (M.S. 414.02,
subd. 3, or the consolidation of two cities (M.S. 414.041J subd.5).
A list of cities that had received special legislation and were
operating under a ward based system in time to be grand fathered in by
M.S. 412.023, subd.4, can be found in shelf memos 390a.7 city CodeJ
and 140a.2 The Ward Based System of Election of City Councilmen. Both
of these memos are quite old, and some cities have since abandoned
their wards, but they are still a good guide as to who could have kept
their wards intact.

Re: Leaaue of Women voters/Citv Council Ward Svstem Backaround
Dear Karen:
This letter is a follow-up to our telephone conversation concerning
background information on ward systems of election in Minnesota
ci ties. I have enclosed several items which I will briefly
describe below. Before doing so, however, I will provide some
brief background from my discussion with representatives of the
League of Minnesota cities, the City of Eden prairie and the City
,'j,\ of stillwater.
~:::. :'>
- :J...
;~~In general terms, it is the position of the League of Minnesota
i ~ Cities that state law does not allow statutory cities such as Eagan
l\ to form wards without special legislation or adoption of the home
rule form of government.
As we discussed on the phone, there are a variety of benefits and
disadvantages to wards. A list of the benefits and disadvantages
as identified by the City of Stillwater is enclosed. Most of these
reflect the issues we discussed previously. An additional
disadvantage in a growing city is the need to constantly modify
ward boundaries to insure equal representation.
Also enclosed is a copy of a letter that the League of Minnesota
cities sent to the City of Jordan who is considering a similar
issue together with expansion from a five to a seven member
Council. An attachment to this correspondence is the League's
Information for Municipal Officials concerning the ward system
which is enclosed. You will note that this most recent document is
dated 1965. The reason is that until recently, the ward system has
not received significant attention since the late 60's or early
70's.
Because one of the means by which the City could set up wards is
the adoption of a home rule charter, I have included a League
document outlining the advantages and disadvantages of a charter as
