That contract is held by Blaha's Towing of Farmington. We have had several inquiries about bid dates for the new towing contract. At this time, I am requesting authorization to advertise for bids. These advertisements would be published for two consecutive weeks in the Farmington Independent, with a deadline of April 12, 1993. The bids would be returned for Council consideration at the regular meeting of April 19, 1993. If you have any questions or comments, feel free to contact me at your convenience. Daniel M.

V T�9 - a/(,-.d `6 MEMO TO: Mayor and Council P,' 4 SUBJECT: Retired Squad Car DATE: March 8, 1993 As you know the police department has acquired it's new squad car and has retired the oldest squad from emergency service. That car is a 1990 LTD Crown Victoria with 83, 000 miles on it. In recent years the retired squad car has been held over an additional year, stripped of police department decals and used as an Administrative vehicle for the general use of City Hall. For the past year, that need has been filled by the damaged squad car from 1992 retirement. While I would not recommend the use of this high mileage car for emergency response, it is mechanically sound and should serve the needs of the City for more routine trips. During the past year this Administrative vehicle has been used by Police, Parks and Recreation and HRA. As you can see, it is a useful tool with little or no new expense to the City. At this time, I would recommend that the 1990 Ford Squad be stripped of insignia and placed in service as an Administrative vehicle. I would also recommend that the damaged squad be set aside for sale at the next City of Farmington auction. As always, if you have any comments or questions, feel free to contact me. 41 •', Daniel M.

With this rapid population growth has grown the need for engineering services. City staff, with the approval of the council, has done an adequate job of meeting these increasing needs with appropriate equipment purchases and the timely hiring of full and part-time employees . As the 1993 construction season approaches, the City has more street and utility work proposed than any time before. Construction on projects is set to begin by at least April 1 and will most likely continue until the snow flies in October - November. Even though the City will not be providing the design and staking for each of these projects, each one will be staff's responsibility. With the acquisition of the two six-month intern positions last year, City staff was able to provide the minimal personnel needed to design, survey, and oversee all the projects under construction in Farmington last year. Office space was pushed to its limits with the added personnel and some inefficiencies were noted due to the lack of proper work space. Computer accessibility was very limited, as four computer operators were restricted to one computer terminal, adding to the inefficiencies. As noted, this year appears to be even busier than last year. The acquisition of the Engineering/Solid Waste Specialist will assist the secretarial work load and free the Assistant Engineer to do more engineering duties. Additional improvements are needed in the Engineering operations to make it efficient enough to handle the proposed work load. The proposed improvements being requested are as follows: 1) Space Reorganization For 3 months last summer, 4 people worked on 3 drafting desks and a table, all situated in 1 open room/hallway. While summer construction requires a need for a large amount of field work, office work on plans, bids, specs, etc. is also required by all personnel. Due to the openness of the room and its use as a hallway, resituating the existing furniture is difficult. To assist the use of existing furniture, a cubicle type wall is being requested to separate the room from the hallway. To maximize storage space, a new storage system is being proposed on the north wall. This would maximize the storage while providing room for an additional computer station. The existing storage cabinet and computer desk could be used by the Solid Waste or Street crews at their facilities. With the proposed improvements in Administration, a desk would be available for the use of the Assistant Engineer. With these improvements, as proposed, working stations would be provided for 4 Engineering personnel, additional storage space would be provided, and two computer work stations would become available. 2) Personal Computers and accessories The Engineering staff consists of 2 full time employees with CAD and other computer software experience. The interns hired last year had considerable CAD/computer experience and this knowledge has been established as a requirement for all future interns. Presently, the Engineering operations consist of one 386 IBM personal computer. The City has spent thousands of dollars on Autocad and other engineering software capable of working with Autocad to assist in the drafting of plans and specs for all City designed projects. This past year the City was fortunate to have 4 Engineering staff members with the abilities to use Autocad. Due to time constraints with the limitations of only the one computer, only the base of the plans, if any portion at all, was completed on the computer for most projects. The major portion of drafting was done by hand. I believe that you are very aware of the efficiency of having the plans drawn by the • computer rather than by hand. I am requesting two new computers for the use of Engineering operations. One computer is a 486 IBM compatible with maximum speed, memory, and storage capabilities. This would provide two computer aided drafting stations and capabilities better suited to the efficient use of the GIS than the current computer. The other new computer (386 PC) would be used by the Engineering/Solid Waste Specialist for all engineering correspondence, spec writing, agenda items, etc. Administration does not presently have enough computers to meet their own needs . The computer accessory being requested would allow the use of the computer drafting abilities while plotting plan sheets. Presently, the computer can not be used while a plan sheet is being plotted. Each sheet may take 4 to 6 hours . When you consider plans consisting of 5 to 27 or more sheets per project, you are talking a considerable amount of time. The 1993 Budget for Engineering Operations includes $2500.00 for a new level and $2000.00 for new hydraulic software. The Engineering staff does need two levels at times. We did last year. Presently, the City owns one level and one theodolite. The theodolite may be used as a level for non- precision work. It was used last year for construction staking and may be used this year again. Hydraulic software was acquired last year through a government wholesaler at a very low cost. It has met the Engineering staff's needs and should continue to do so. I feel very strongly that the acquisition of the two computers by March 19, 1993 will benefit the City much more than the level and software. We are at the beginning of the plan drafting season now. Now is the time to be as efficient as possible. In order to house the two computer stations, the space reorganization is needed also. The new 386 to be used by the Engineering/Solid Waste Specialist will be housed at the work station being allocated by the Administrative space reorganization. The addition of the software to allow an operator to draft while plotting will only help make Engineering more efficient. The detailed equipment descriptions and costs follow. The computer requests may not be the cheapest of all 486 and 386 computers on the market, but they are the best quotes for the particular brands and models being recommended. Recommendations are based upon past experience, reliability, and service options. The space/storage reorganizer detailed is only available at one area distributor. All of the larger home improvement stores were checked and they did not have said organizer • system or equal. It best meets the needs of the Engineering operations at the lowest cost. The cubicle wall is being purchased through the supplier providing the cubicles and additional improvements for Administration. The wall sections are used and available at. their facilities and the least expensive on hand. The software package requested is the only one I am aware of. Additional budgeted funds may be acquired by adjusting a $1000.00 Earthwork software item. The present Autocad/COGO software can calculate cross-sectional areas for earthwork calcs . It is a less efficient process, but it works. This inefficiency does not come close to the inefficiencies addressed by this memo and corrected by all of the requested improvements. Additional Engineering funds are also likely due to the currently proposed list of improvements in Farmington. Thank you for your consideration of these requests.

DATE: MARCH 11, 1993 Attached are two proposals for agreements with Knutson Services, Inc. of Rosemount, MN. The first proposal is regarding the annual recyclable material purchase agreement. The City has been hauling all of its marketable recyclable items to KSI 's material recovery center for the past eighteen months. The past six months have been without a contract between the City and KSI . The City has been receiving payment for all of the marketable material collected based upon market value. Since the original contract was signed, the recycle market has become less subsidized and less stable. The City has been paying KSI to take all recyclable plastics for the past fourteen months . Demand for other material has decreased, dropping market prices . Due to these changes, a revision in the payment process is being requested. Payment shall be made based upon only the aluminum brought to KSI ' s facility. The City will receive records of all material brought to the facility as in the past, but will not receive payment for any other material. This is consistent with the other recycling centers available for the City' s use. Due to County mandates, the City will still be required to collect all material currently collected by the City. Items will most likely be added in the future. The Council may want to have staff research options in the future, but I will not discuss this here. The second proposal is regarding the use of KSI 's facility as a transfer station. This would entail taking garbage to KSI 's facility rather than Pine Bend landfill. KSI runs their operations by having all their garbage trucks unload onto 30 and 50 yard roll-off boxes. A semi tractor rig hauls these boxes to Kraemer and Sons Landfill in Burnsville. The City's garbage trucks would follow this example of KSI 's. In addition to Kraemer's landfill fees, KSI is requesting a fee to compensate for the hauling of the MSW to the landfill. The fee proposed is the expected savings the City will see in reduced fuel usage and man-hours . As of this writing, KSI has not agreed to said amount. The benefits seen for the City are primarily in the added man-hours for other work. Time could go to vehicle maintenance, population growth, minor repairs, etc. There is also the removal of possible "hazards" incurred by driving through the landfill. Damage has occurred to the vehicles in the past at the landfill. This will affect the budget by increasing the landfill fees total cost, but will be offset somewhat by less fuel costs. Man-hours will not change drastically, possibly with a reduction in overtime. Russ Matthys, P.E.

These two bills are the only ones that have been introduced at this time to repeal the Dual Track Process, although we understand that additional bills will be forthcoming. The SOAR Board also voted to distribute this resolution to all area officials with the intention that similar resolutions be passed as soon as possible by all units of government. Our citizen organization believes that the Dual Track Process has been irreparably discredited by the Legislative Auditors'findings. We reject further study of a relocation site and reject any further involvement in aviation planning by the Metropolitan Council. We are requesting a similar stance by our elected city and township officials and especially by the County Commissioners. This resolution is on the agenda for the March 9 meeting of the Dakota County Commissioners in Hastings. It is expected to be discussed at approximately 10 a.m. The SOAR Board of Directors is requesting that your city send a representative to this meeting or contact county commissioners before the meeting, urging their support of this effort to halt the Dual Track Process. We are also requesting that this resolution be considered at the next meeting of your City Council. SOAR Resolution to Repeal Dual Track Process Passed by Unanimous Board Decision March 4, 1993 WHEREAS,the Office of the Legislative Auditor's Report on Airport Planning determined that the Metropolitan Council is responsible for generating seriously flawed data and analyses in its 1988 Adequacy Study conducted by the Metropolitan Council; and WHEREAS,the 1989 Legislature passed the Dual Track Legislation based upon the Metropolitan Council's significant overestimation of current and future airport delays, substantially overestimated benefits of capacity enhancement at either MSP or a new airport, inappropriate methods for determining airport adequacy, flawed analysis of future noise problems around MSP,and erroneous analysis of trends in hubbing activity; and WHEREAS,the Legislative Auditors and the Metropolitan Airports Commission concur that the need for more runway capacity appears to be farther off in the future than originally forecast; and WHEREAS,the fundamental problems associated with the Metropolitan Council's role in the Dual Track Process continue currently with a lack of accountability to any governing body, failure to respond thoroughly and publicly to recommendations by the Legislative Auditor, and persistent use of erroneous data following release of the Report on Airport Planning; and WHEREAS, the airline industry is concerned that continued collection of fees and taxes for long-term airport improvement projects is financially destroying airlines in the near term; and WHEREAS,the crucial issue of economic feasibility is currently under the jurisdiction of the Metropolitan Council and remains as the major project of the Dual Track Planning Process as mandated by the 1989 Legislation; and WHEREAS, the Board of Directors of SOAR have lost confidence in the Metropolitan Council, its appointed leadership and staff for the aforestated reasons and believe that the public will discredit any major airport conclusions based upon past or future studies conducted by the agency; THEREFORE,be it resolved that the Directors of SOAR request that the 1993 Legislature repeal the Dual Track Planning Process by passing H.F. 479 and S.F. 472, authorize the Metropolitan Airports Commission to assume sole agency governance over the master plan process determining the future of MSP by eliminating any governance over MSP operational issues by the Metropolitan council,and reassure citizens that continuance of this unjustified search for a new major airport site will be replaced with a process to establish a comprehensive, statewide transportation plan that benefits all Minnesotans. �,. Secretary, SOAR Board of Directors C/ tl • AGENDA REQUEST FORM Item No. Name: Karen Finstuen Department: Administration Date: March 5, 1993 Meeting Date: March 15, 1993 Category: Unfinished Business Subject: Administration and Finance Office Redesign Explanation: Reference Material/Responsibilty Memo - Karen Finstuen Referred To: (Name) Department Larry Thompson Administration Wayne Henneke Finance Karen Finstuen Administration Signature MEMO TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL SUBJECT: ADMINISTRATION AND FINANCE OFFICE SPACE REORGANIZATION DATE: MARCH 11, 1993 Per previous discussion, staff has been pursuing the reoganization of office space for the Finance and Administrative areas of City Hall. Since this item was last- before the Council, the sales/design representative from General Office Products has redesigned the layout of the Administrative area in an attempt to reduce costs and to make the individual units more adaptable to reuse if the office layout changes in the future. I have attached a copy of the new layout and price estimates for your review. The new layout saves approximately $2,000 over the original cost estimate. The attached capital outlay request does not include the cost of removing the existing walls or any of the costs for rerouting electrical and phone lines to serve the new units. These costs are not included because, at this time, we do not know what they will be. Staff is hoping to have this capital outlay request approved at this meeting, since this project must be scheduled at General Office Products and it will be several weeks before the project can begin after it is approved. Once the project begins, it should be completed in about a week. If you have any questions or concerns about this project, I would be happy to answer them either before or during the meeting on Monday evening. cry, Karen Finstuen Administrative Assistant cc: file Larry Thompson Wayne Henneke KMF Memo to: Mayor & Council Date : March 10, 1993 Re Reorganization of Space for Administration & Finance Attached is the tabulation of costs for the Administration and Finance Department ' s space reorganization.
