MEMO TO: Mayor and Council
SUBJECT: Sign Inventory
DATE: • May 29, 1991
The Public Works Department has completed it' s sign inventory of
the City. A detailed map of those signs is available for review.
After consultation between our two departments and reviewing all
of the available information, we would like to make the following
recommendations for Council consideration.
Stop Signs - Placement
On 190th Street at Flagstaff Avenue
3-way, Ely at 180th (Dakota County Estates)
On Embry Ave. at 193rd (Akin Park)
On Dunbar at 203rd (Pine Knoll )
On Exley at Upper 182nd (Hill Dee)
On Fairgreen at Hwy 50
On 4th at Walnut
On 7th at Walnut
4-way, Maple and 2nd
We would recommend the following for future consideration:
Stop Signs On 183rd at Embers
This would be recommended after the new addition is
substantially developed.
Stop Lights - The City should actively pursue stop
lights at Co. Rd. 31 and Hwy 50 and at Hwy 50 and 3rd
Street. In addition, with development of Elm Park we
recommend a stop light at 1st and Hwy 50.
Reconstruct the intersection of Upper 182nd and Lower
182nd to a T configuration with a stop sign controlling
Lower 182nd Street.
Truck Routes:
In the past the Council has discussed truck routes. This would
be a good opportunity to discuss this topic again. The question
that comes to mind for discussion is:
Does the City wish to establish a Truck Route System and
Ordinance?
The purpose of such a system would be to direct heavy loads onto
street designed to carry those loads, and to plan the future
upgrading of substandard streets.
Mayor and Council
May 29, 1991 Page 2
It should be noted that designation of truck routes does not
prohibit pick up or delivery off of those routes.
At this time we would recommend the designation of all Collector
Streets, MSA routes and Service Routes be included for discussion.
As a part of this study it would be our recommendation to remove
the No Trucks sign from Walnut Street. The original intent of
this sign was the prevention of truck travel . In actuality it
is unenforceable. By Statute, a truck may travel on this road
for purposes of pick up or delivery. In addition, since this
street was built to a 9 ton standard using MSA funds, the
legality of such a restriction is questionable.
Designation of this street for truck traffic would relieve 2nd
Street of the heavier load for which it is not designed.
Finally, we would like the Council to open discussions regarding
establishment of Seasonal Parking Restrictions to aid in snow
removal. Such restrictions would require adoption of a new
ordinance and some additional warning signs but overall cost
would be •minimal.
At this time, the Traffic Study is complete for Council action.
If you have any comments or questions, feel free to contact
either of us for additional information,

MEMO TO: -Mayor• and Council
SUBJECT: Traffic Survey
DATE: May 28, 1991
In July of 1990, 'the City Council ordered an over all study of
traffic problems r'. the city. The study was to include traffic
control signs; traffic_ patterns and traffic speed.
This rnernco will deal with one specific part of the study, speed.
In order to determine problem areas, the police department
reviewed speeding complaints and requests for, additional traffic
control signs. The majority of our cornplairnts and requests came
from the Dakota County Estates area. First Street, Second Street
and Seventh Street were also the sources of speeding complaints.
In order to provide greater documentation of speeds in
residential areas, I selected other streets in various
subdivisions where similar design and traffic control are
present. The following list indicates the individual streets
studied.
DAKOTA COUNTY ESTATES: 180th, 182nd, Emerald Trail, 183rd
OLD TOWN PROPER: 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 6th, 7th
CHATEAU MANOR: Fairview Lane, Heritage Way
WESTVIEW: West Hickory
The. speed survey was conducted during daytime hours by a part-
t ime police officer ic;,r in an unmarked squad car using an MPH K-55
radar unit in the stationary mode. The officer monitored
direction of travel and peak speed of each vehicle. These were'
recorded in one hour increments. The attending officer was
specifically prohibited from any enforcement action since that
would have affected the outcome of the survey.
The second phase of this study involved the transfer of raw data
into a readable form. The attached graphs will .show four
separate results. Each tells the total number of vehicles per
hour; the average speed of those vehicles; the total number of
vehicles driving in excess of posted speed limit and the total
number of vehicles driving at a ticketable speed. It should be
noted that the Police Department Policy gives an allowance of six
MPH in residential areas. This allows for odometer errors.
Beyond six MPH over the posted limit is "ticketable. " The dotted
line will serve as an indication of 30 MPH. The total number of
vehicles gives us an indication of the use of the street. This
is feeder or collector. The purpose of this collector street is
to move a large volume of traffic quickly. Therefore, we expect
a higher volume of traffic at a higher speed.
Mayor and Council
May 9, 1991 Page 2
The second category should be of interest to this study. The
average speed of the traffic should riot exceed 30 MPH. Even a
small range over the 30 MPH mark is an indicator of problems.
The third category involves the total number of vehicles
traveling in excess of posted limits. This number should be
viewed as it relates to the total. The higher the percentage
violation, the higher the average speed will be. • This is the
figure that is of particular interest in the placement of traffic
control signs. Most of these vehicles can be slowed down by the
strategic placement of signs.
The final category studied is the total number of ticketable
offenses. As mentioned the Farmington Police enforce residential
speeds at six or more miles per hour over the limit. Non-
residential speeds are enforced at 10 or more miles per hour.
This category is an indication of need for traffic enforcement
and/or traffic control devices.
These graphs clearly show the difference between controlled and
uncontrolled streets. The most vivid examples are 180th Street,
which is u.►ncontrolled and 182nd Street which is controlled. We
can easily see the percentage of drivers traveling in excess of
the posted limits is 4 1/2 times higher in the uncontrolled area
(8% and 37%) .
Based on data obtained in this traffic survey several areas of
concern appear.
In Dakota County Estates, 180th Street appears to need some type
•of traffic - control device. While the number of ticketable
offenses is low, the number of vehicles in excess of speed limits
is high. This probably indicates a gradual increase in speed
over a long stretch. This problem would best be solved by
interrupting that gradual acceleration. A stop sign in the
vicinity of Ely or Ellice should solve this problem.
Another area of concern is First Street. This is the only street
studied with a consistent average speed in excess of 30 MPH.
The character of the road and low housing density promotes higher
speeds. This street is designed like a collector, but is not
intended to serve that purpose. The posting of traffic control
signs would be beneficial, but is difficult due to the lack of
intersections.
At this point, the police department has undertaken an enhanced
enforcement position in this area. At this writing the
enforcement action appears to have diminished but riot eliminated
the problem.
Mayor and Council
May 9, 1991 Page 3
Second Street is also a residential street. While average speeds
here generally remain below the posted limit, they do
uncomfortably approach that limit. Here again, we see
proportionately high numbers of speeders. Much like 180th Street
these can be attributed to a long uncontrolled stretch of road,
however, the number of ticketable offenses is relatively low.
Third Street is intended to be a collector street. Average
speeds here are expected to approach the posted limits, since a
large volume of traffic must pass through with minimal
congestion. Because of the nature of the . street and it' s
intended use, I would hesitate to recommend any additional
traffic control devices. This problem would best be solved by a
program of enhanced enforcement.
In the cases of both 6th and 7th Streets, we see average speeds
well below limits with relative few violations. At this time, I
would recommend no changes for either of these streets.
The final areas checked were Fairview Lane, Heritage Way and West
Hickory Streets. The study indicates no substantial problems on
either W. Hickory or Fairview. On Heritage Way we see an
abnormal number of vehicles when considered in proportion to the
size of the neighborhood. I feel this can be directly attributed
to the Park/Pool facilities. These facilities also add increased
pedestrian traffic which in turn increases the hazard of high
speed traffic.
While average speeds are safely below limits, when we consider
other neighborhood factors, there is a fairly significant number
in excess of those limits. Due to the seasonal nature of
heightened activity, I feel a higher police visibility would
produce the desired results.
At this time, the basic residential traffic speed survey is
complete. I will be conducting a follow up survey as needed and •
dependent upon council action.
As - a result of the information obtained, I would recommend the
following action.
Placement of a three-way stop sign at 180th and Ely Ave.
Placement of a 4;-way stop at and and Maple Streets.
Increased traffic enforcement along 1st Street and on
Heritage Way.
Finally, although it is riot addressed in this study, I feel
Farmington' s traffic_ control could be greatly improved by
consistent application of existing traffic control.
•
Mayor and Council
May 28, 1991 Page 4
Specifically, I feel that any street intersecting a collector or
large should be controlled •by a stop sign. Currently this would
•only change signs along Walnut Street. I believe other
collectors are appropriately marked.
In addition, we should avoid similar problems in new development,
but I feel these can be addressed in the pre-development planning
process.
If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to
contact me at your convenience.

MEMO TO: MAYOR AND COUNCIL
SUBJECT: MAYOR'S TERM TO 4 YEARS
DATE: JANUARY 30, 1992
Per Council directive, I have placed consideration of amending the Mayor's term
from 2 to 4 years. While on the surface this may seem like a simple procedure,
I feel that based on the sensitive nature of elected offices, there should be
advanced publicity on the amendment.
It should be noted that I have set a meeting with Erik Christensen and the Mayor
to discuss this matter. Mr. Christensen informed me that he mistakenly understood
the Council had approved the change and had written a news brief. A correction
will be made in edition.
I would, therefore, request this matter be tabled until a future Council meeting.

Re Fire Marshall - Job Description •
The City Council has given authorization to advertise for
applications for the position of Fire Marshall. The Fire Chief
has a concern about the required qualifications listed in the job
description. It is recommended to add a fifth required
qualification that requires the completion of a Fire Inspector I
course or equivalent. The equivalent would be 36 hours of Fire
Inspector courses offered at Fire Sectional Schools. A copy of
an amended job description is attached for your review.
The Fire Marshall position was appropriated for in the Fire -
Other Contracted Services line item of the 1992 Budget in the
amount of $15,000. In light of the attached memorandum regarding
independent contractors and the Fair Labor Standards Act dated
August 6, 1991 from the Finance Director to the City
Administrator, it is recommended to hire the Fire Marshall as a
Permanent Part-Time Employee of the City. There is a need to be
able to set work hours and work procedures.
If the Fire Marshall is to be a city employee, the $15,000
appropriated in Fire - Other Contracted Services would be
reappropriated to :
Fire
Part Time Salaries - $11 ,220
Benefits - 3,780
Total $15,000
The hourly salary of the Fire Marshall would be $11.00/hour on a
20 hours per week work schedule.

Re Fire Marshal Contract
Pursuant to your request, the contracting of fire marshal
services with a private individual has been researched.
The main question is , is the fire marshal an independent
contractor or in fact a part time employee. The legal test that
establishes a true independent contractor is called the "economic
reality test" . The focal point in deciding whether an individual
is an employee is whether the individual is economically
dependent on the business to which he renders service or is in
business for himself . In applying this test, the courts
generally focus on five factors :
1 ) The degree of control exerted by the alleged employer
over the worker.
2) The worker 's opportunity for profit or loss .
3) The worker 's investment in the business .
4) The permanence of the working relationship.
5) The degree of skill required to perform the work.
If an independent contractor does not meet this test of economic
reality, the contractor may be treated as an employee for FLSA
purposes .
Dave Harmeyer states the determination of an individual being an
independent contractor or a part time employee is who determines
when the work is to be done and how it is to be completed. If it
is the individual , then he is an independent contractor. If it
is the City, he is a part time employee. The City can tell the
independent contractor that he must attend certain meetings and
respond to emergencies .
If the City was to contract with a private individual , that
individual must provide the City a certificate of insurance
stating he has a minimum of $600, 000 liability insurance.

Re Assistant Engineer/Acting Solid Waste Coordinator -
Additional Compensation
It is recommended to inc - - . .. .f the Assistant
Engineer by $1 . 00/hour effective April 27, 19.2 The assistant
engineer was delegated the . - . waste coordinator
when the solid waste coordinator position was eliminated effective
1/1/92 . It was felt that the delegation of additional duties would
be on an interim basis (3 - 4 months) until the permanent staffing
of solid waste was resolved. Because of the Bureau of Mediation
Services Order, the City has not been able to consider reorganizing
solid waste. The delegation of these duties has now gone beyond
the four months and it is felt the Assistant Engineer should be
compensated for the additional duties . The projects delegated to
him include the implementation of the weight based system, county
grant administration, metropolitan council grant administration,
and the completion of the county reports required for the City' s
recycling program. He also attends waste haulers meetings, county
meetings, responds to most complaints, and etc.
The delegation of duties to the Assistant Engineer was to be until
the weight based system was installed and operating. Even though
the City has faced delays due to the scale, there will always be a
need for a person to:
1 ) Administer County Grants
2 ) Prepare recycling reports
3) Attend hauler ' s meetings
4) Attend recycling meetings
5) Attend County meetings
6) Work with the crew
The staffing needs for Solid Waste have been analyzed and a work
session to discuss permanent solid waste staffing should be
considered.

a list of tentative projects and their current status. Because of the work load,
the Public Works Department has a need for a second engineering intern. (See the
attached description.) This position was originally proposed this Spring. The
Council authorized the first intern position in the Spring and directed the Public
Works Department to make the request for the second position later in the year
once the list of projects was determined.
I have reviewed the list of projects. with Wayne Henneke as to anticipated revenues
from engineering fees. Wayne has indicated that the 1992 engineering fee revenues
can be increased by $9,215.00 to cover the second position. (See attached budget
adjustment.)
In order to set up this position with the U of M on a timely basis, I request Council
approval for the second engineering intern position and the associated budget
adjustment.
