s. ANNOUNCEMENTS
a) Dakota County Regional Park Presentation
Mr. Steve Sullivan, Dakota County Parks Director gave a presentation regarding a
future Regional Park in Empire Township. Dakota County is part of the Regional
Park System which was established in 1973. The Regional Park system is made
up of 10 agencies and provides natural resource based parks to the metro area.
Recreation opportunities provided are picnicking, swimming, hiking, and boating.
Dakota County Regional Parks serve about 700,000 people per year. Due to the
high growth in the FarmingtonlLakeville area, there was a void in this area for
regional parks. A wonderful aspect to Empire is there are only a few property
owners and they are interested in selling. The County Board considered 3
options:
1. It should all be regional park.
2. No need for a regional park and have the DNR manage as a wildlife area.
3. Partnership with surrounding organizations.
Council Minutes (Regular)
April 5, 2004
Page 2
The County Board recommended the partnership. The Board directed County
staff to prepare a Master Plan for the park area. Both Farmington and Lakeville
are extending trails into Empire Township along the Vermillion River, which are
consistent with the Regional Park. The process is to meet with potential
collaborators to see if there is a management concept for a partnership and then to
establish boundaries for the park. Once this is done, funds can be obtained
through the Met Council. The park will be located south of CR 42, down
Biscayne Avenue to CR 66. It is just north of the Vermillion River. The entrance
would probably come off Annette Avenue from 170th Street. A draft Master Plan
will be presented to the County Board within 3 months.
MOTION by Fogarty~ second by Soderberg to adopt RESOLUTION R27-04
supporting the location of a new regional park in Empire Township. APIF,
MOTION CARRIED.
Staff noted the park will be 3 miles from downtown Farmington and accessible to
the trail system.

8. PUBLIC HEARINGS
9. AWARD OF CONTRACT
a) City Hall Architectural Firm - Administration
On January 5,2004 Council selected a site for a new City Hall. Requests for
Proposals were distributed and 16 responses were received. Six firms were
interviewed. Staff recommended Wold Architects. Staff proposed detailing the
cost of studying facility information with a completion date of June to be
presented with the CIP. The cost for this would be $8,000 which would be
credited upon approval and notice to begin the project. In June, Council will
make a decision whether to continue with a design of the building.
Councilmember Fitch asked if this would be similar to a feasibility study.
Attorney Jamnik replied it would. Councilmember Fitch then asked about the
35,000 sq. ft. He recalled it was 26,000 sq. ft. Staff replied the additional space
would be used for a liquor store, and as the City Hall needs grew, the liquor store
would move out and that space would be available for City Hall.
Councilmember Cordes asked if this report was directed to the site on Spruce
Street or could it be used in a different area. Staffwill check with Wold
Architects. Space needs could be used anywhere.
Councilmember Soderberg asked ifthe information would be as indepth as a
feasibility study. Attorney Jamnik replied there is a great variation in the level of
detail for feasibility reports. Most are fairly detailed, but do not go to the plans
and specifications stage. If Council determines to go ahead with the project, the
architect would draw up actual plans. Councilmember Soderberg stated he
assumed it would be site specific as the Council has made a determination for the
3rd and Spruce Street site. Attorney Jamnik stated the architect is likely to draft
the space needs and a possible layout to fit on the identified site. If you change
the site, you may have more flexibility to offer the architect to change those plans
to go with a one-story building versus two or three stories.
MOTION by Soderberg, second by Fitch to enter into a contract with Wold
Architects to assist the city with further refinement of space needs and site
development in order to determine the estimated costs and construction schedule
for the proposed City Hall project for a total fixed fee of $8,000. This
information is needed for inclusion in the City's Capital Improvement Program
Council Minutes (Regular)

scheduled to be completed in June 2004. This $8,000 would be credited towards
the project upon approval and notice to begin the project. APIF, MOTION
CARRIED.
10. PETITIONS, REQUESTS AND COMMUNICATIONS
11. UNFINISHED BUSINESS
a) Main Street Project - Hwy 3 Considerations - Engineering
A Coffee with the Council was held with downtown business owners to discuss
closing Main Street at Hwy 3. Based on the information received, staff felt there
were issues that needed further review. Some issues have to do with access to a
couple of businesses that have a lot of truck traffic, the future reconstruction of
Elm Street, and the possible opening of other streets in the area. Staff suggested
at some time in the future Council authorize a study of the downtown area in
regards to access and traffic issues.
b) Adopt Resolution - Minnesota Zoo Bonding Bill Request - Administration
At the last Council Meeting the Council had some concerns with the information
and how other areas would be affected as far as funding. Councilmember Fogarty
noted the Governor has already consented to $32 million for funding. Council
agreed to not take any action.
12. NEW BUSINESS
13. COUNCIL ROUNDTABLE
Councilmember Fogarty: At the end of the year Council receives an attendance
record for Board and Commission members. As Council is appointed to some
committees she would like staff to develop an attendance list for committees Council is
appointed to. Mayor Ristow agreed this is a great idea.
Councilmember Soderberg: He received an excellent letter regarding the Fire
Department and the good work they do. There was a lot of news in the Pioneer Press
regarding Farmington including the RFP for the McVicker lot. There will be a Council
Workshop April 6.
Councilmember Fitch: Stated he had a complaint for the citizens. He noticed by a
cardboard recycling bin, someone overnight had dumped a truckload of cardboard outside
of the cage. A dedicated city employee, who in our tight budget, had to take an hour and
a half to repack cardboard into an empty container he brought. Councilmember Fitch
found it unconscionable that we have people in this city that would be that reckless. We
provide these as a service to the citizens in order to do a better job of recycling. He also
noticed the container on Hwy 3 contained everything from beer cans to garbage bags to
cardboard on the outside. People are dumping things that should not be dumped in them
Council Minutes (Regular)
April 5, 2004
Page 5
and all around them. A little restraint and responsibility by our citizens would be
warranted.
City Administrator Urbia: The Chamber's Volunteer Recognition Dinner will be held
April 22. Coffee with the Council is April 15 and the next on the list to attend are
Councilmember Cordes and Mayor Ristow. They both will be available to attend. A
topic has to be determined. Charter Communications and the cable commission have a
tentative solution to the outage. The franchise requires a refund of the amount of time the
digital cable service was out. There were a large number of users affected. Charter is
proposing to offer 3 free pay-per-view movie passes. If a resident would prefer the
refund, they can call Charter to request it. At this time, this is a tentative solution.
Parks and Recreation
Director Distad: Showed Council the new Adopt-A-Park sign. There are six
organizations that have adopted six parks. There are 20 parks, so the city is still looking
for more organizations. The name ofthe organization is placed on the sign. It is a 2-year
commitment. Staff is also looking for volunteers for the Adopt-A-Pond program.
Mayor Ristow:
There will be a MUSA Review Committee meeting April 7.

Cynthia Muller, Executive Assistant
Michelle Leonard, Aaron Tinklenberg
Audience:
City Administrator Urbia and Council agreed to continue with the current Appraisal of
Performance.
City Administrator Urbia asked Council what they would like to see accomplished within one
year so they could say it has been a good year. It would give him a sense of priorities so Council
and staff can work together to focus energy on those priorities.
Mayor Ristow asked how Council felt about having a goal setting retreat. Councilmember
Fogarty felt a retreat should be held as soon as possible. Councilmember Cordes only had open
May 8 if it is held on a Saturday. Mayor Ristow stated the retreats have been for 5-6 hours.
Councilmember Fogarty felt it should be a two-day retreat. Last year did not allow enough time
to discuss everything. Council agreed to bring in a facilitator, Mr. Don Salverda. City
Administrator Urbia will contact him to see when he is available.
City Administrator Urbia asked Council ifthey prefer to be contacted bye-mail or by phone.
Councilmember Fogarty enjoyed receiving the Friday Faxes bye-mail. She felt he has done a
good job with communicating bye-mail. If an immediate answer is needed to communicate by
phone is fine. Councilmember Soderberg does not check his e-mail that often. If a response is
not received to an e-mail, City Administrator Urbia should call him. It would also be good to
call him if an e-mail has been sent. Councilmember Fitch stated to e-mail him at work is ok, but
it should also be copied to the city e-mail. Councilmember Cordes was ok with receiving e-
mails. Council would like to continue receiving phone calls regarding the agenda. It is not
necessary to call on off-weeks. Councilmember Soderberg stated he expected City
Administrator Urbia to make decisions on day-to-day operations. If it has to do with policy,
Council should be contacted.
Issuance of MUSA
City Administrator Urbia has been attending the meetings, however, Community Development
has been handling this issue. Councilmember Fogarty stated the committee has taken a strong
hold on what should be done. It is good for staffto just take in comments. City Administrator
Urbia should continue to keep on top of the issue, but let the committee make decisions. He has
been attending the meetings as he felt this was the quickest way for him to become informed and
Council Workshop
April 6, 2004
Page 2
to meet people. Councilmember Cordes agreed that is a good meeting to go to to become
familiar with Farmington. However, he should not spread himself too thin.
Equipment Replacement
Equipment is replaced according to the number of years it has been in use. Staff should continue
the same process.
Strategic Planning Regarding Staffing Levels
City Administrator Urbia asked Council what areas they would like staff to focus on. Mayor
Ristow stated in the past Department Heads brought requests to the City Administrator. Human
Resources Director Wendlandt stated staff shortages have been identified. If the next budget
shows more for staff, they would like direction from Council. Councilmember Cordes stated it
depends on how much the budget is increased. Mayor Ristow stated City Administrator Urbia
has to decide what requests can be presented to Council. Councilmember Cordes stated day-to-
day operations are up to the City Administrator. If more support staff is needed, then perhaps we
cannot buy more police cars. Councilmember Fogarty stated she is talking with legislators to
make sure the city does not lose the levy limits. She asked if City Administrator Urbia was
asking ifthe money becomes available and we can expand the budget where we personally
would like to see departments expand. City Administrator Urbia stated he is trying to gauge
what would be reasonable. Councilmember Fitch stated if we have a police officer hurt, what
kind of liability do we have as far as backup. Councilmember Soderberg stated we are working
on a 2002 income with 23% growth in three years. In goal setting he suggested establishing a
policy for ratios. The ratio could be by population or by number of streets. Councilmember
Fitch stated if it is determined that police and fire are first, then others are second. Mayor Ristow
stated City Administrator Urbia needs to feel comfortable bringing the recommendations to
Council.
Facilities - City Hall and Satellite Fire Station
Council approved a recommendation on City Hall at the Council Meeting. Staff will continue to
communicate on the project. Regarding the fire station. the results of the soil borings are in and
staff will meet to review the results before presenting them to Council. The site is next to the
Maintenance Facility. Staffhas a concern that using this site could cause problems for
Maintenance Facility expansion and also to have enough room for the fire station.
Councilmember Soderberg stated we are not locked into that site. It could be within the area.
City Administrator Urbia will be meeting with Fire Chief Kuchera on Monday. He will ask
about response times and have the ISO Representative there for information. Councilmember
Fogarty noted a majority of the new fire department members are from the north end. They are
coming south to the fire station and then going north again. This brings response times up.
Mayor Ristow suggested a site to the east on the Genstar property. City Administrator Urbia
would like to look ahead to buy land. Councilmember Cordes suggested discussing facilities at
the goal setting retreat. City Administrator Urbia stated he will be attending the school facility
meetings. He met with the Superintendent and they agreed if there was a meeting relating to
parks, Park and Recreation Director Distad would be invited.
Mayor Ristow stated the Fire Station is a public safety issue just like the police. He stated after
the Police and Maintenance facilities were done, the Fire Station was actually ahead ofthem at
Council Workshop
April 6, 2004
Page 3
one time. Then it was put back after the Police and Maintenance facilities. Councilmember
Soderberg stated the final report stated Maintenance facility, Police facility, City Hall,
Recreational facility, Fire Station. Councilmember Cordes stated at one time, before the initial
task force, the Fire Station was identified as a priority. Councilmember Soderberg stated the
official final task force report was accepted by the Council. The needs were identified by the
citizens. Currently the priority list is City Hall, Parks facility, and Fire Station. Mayor Ristow
stated if it is a safety issue along with police, that takes priority over parks. Councilmember
Fitch stated you cannot do most of what is wanted with the Park facility without the voters
deciding. Councilmember Fogarty stated the last time Fire Chief Kuchera spoke to Council he
understood City Hall was ahead of the Fire Station.
City Administrator Urbia stated staff is working on the RFP for the Parks facility and the process
for City Hall is moving ahead. Councilmember Soderberg stated by doing the staff study on the
Fire Station that process is moving ahead as well in the order established by the task force.
Mayor Ristow stated it does not matter who established it, ifthe ISO comes and our premiums
go up because we have not planned for a Fire Station, there will be a lot of political conflict
asking why didn't we plan for it. Councilmember Fogarty stated we are working on it and Fire
Chief Kuchera should be on top of it to make sure we are not paying higher premiums.
Councilmember Fitch felt a longer retreat cycle will help us develop a little more detailed
priority than what we have now.
Upcoming Budget Cycle Including the Capital Improvement Plan (and Pavement
Management System)
City Administrator Urbia stated he will obtain more details from staff on the budget process. If it
has worked, there is no need to change it. The CIP will be presented to Council in June along
with the Pavement Management System. He suggested determining a level of what can be done
each year for each part of the city and how that will affect taxes. Councilmember Fogarty
suggested discussing this in the goal setting retreat.
Community Involvement
City Administrator Urbia will be joining the Lions, and attending school facility meetings. He
has started going to various businesses and will continue. Councilmember Fitch stressed
residents are very, very happy the City Administrator lives in the city. He has received a lot of
comment on that and thanked him for making the move so quickly. City Administrator Urbia
stated he would welcome any suggestions from Council as to things he should attend.
Councilmember Soderberg stated to meet the downtown business owners would be excellent
public relations. Mayor Ristow asked about him attending meetings with the townships. City
Administrator Urbia stated he has attended an EFP AC meeting. Councilmember Soderberg
agreed it would be good for him to attend as the opportunity presents itself. Councilmember
Fitch stated Council used to meet every year with Lakeville. It would not hurt for Council and
staff to meet with the townships. Mayor Ristow stated City Administrator Urbia has been doing
a good job with this in the short time he has been here.
Relationship with ISD 192
City Administrator Urbia will be attending school facility meetings. Mayor Ristow stated
Council used to meet with the school board once a year.
Council Workshop
April 6, 2004

Council/Staff - RoleslRelationship
Councilmember Soderberg stated there is a Council policy in place right now, where the City
Administrator deals with staff. If there are any performance issues, it is up to the City
Administrator. If any Councilmembers get into addressing staff on performance issues, the City
Administrator should step in and tell them to back off. It is not Council's place. If Council has
an issue with staff performance, they will come to the City Administrator and let him deal with
it. If anyone in Council oversteps that boundary, they would expect the City Administrator to
tell them to knock it off in no uncertain terms. We have a policy in place for that reason.
Councilmember Fitch stated establishing that policy was the best thing Council ever did.
Councilmember Cordes added if Council makes a decision and if staff reinvents that decision,
she would expect the City Administrator to step in and say this is the directive from Council and
we need to follow their directive. If Council makes a decision, they should follow that decision.
Mayor Ristow stated the biggest thing is to follow through. Ifhe receives a complaint, he calls
the City Administrator and expects it to be followed through. Instead of going to the staff
person, he would prefer to go to the City Administrator. Councilmember Fitch stated he has a
short list: 1) Do not lie to me, tell me the truth. Don't let your staff bring something to us or
you bring something when you know there is hidden information and then you are not willing to
do anything about it afterward. 2) If you say you are going to do something, follow through on
it and finish it. 3) Be fiscally responsible to our citizens. Make sure we provide the maximum
amount for the least amount oftax dollar expenditures. Otherwise as far as day-to-day, the City
Administrator has to handle that. Treat all Councilmembers with the same respect and give all
the same information. Mayor Ristow stated we looked for strengths and qualifications when we
hired the Administrator and that is what he expects. Councilmember Cordes stated he was hired
to do the job. You are the person in charge. Don't be afraid to discuss things with staff. Staff
should look to him for guidance. Councilmember Soderberg felt all the issues have been
covered.
Councilmember Fogarty stated we have a great staff. One thing that should be a high priority is
staff retention. People will be offered better jobs and she would not want to see anyone held
back. She wants to make sure that we are never encouraging anyone to seek out jobs.
Recognizing staff for ajob well done can go a long way. Praise publicly, don't criticize publicly.
Mayor Ristow stated if the City Administrator ever embarrassed a staff member publicly he
would embarrass him right back. That is not the place to do that. Treat them the same way you
would like to be treated. Mayor Ristow stated City Administrator Urbia has the support of the
entire Council and he should not be afraid to tell Council a mistake was made. City
Administrator Urbia agreed being honest and straightforward is best. Mayor Ristow stated Mr.
Harry Brull will come back in 6 months for a performance evaluation.
Councilmember Fitch asked City Administrator Urbia what he expected of Council. City
Administrator Urbia replied to be supportive and if there are issues to let him know immediately.
The best thing is to communicate. If Council has any suggestions for community involvement he
would welcome them. Councilmember Soderberg stated there is nothing wrong with making a
mistake. The problem comes with continuing it. Councilmember Fitch added, or covering it up.
Councilmember Soderberg stated ultimately the City Administrator's job is to do what is best for
the city. Councilmember Fitch stated he really appreciated the job City Administrator Urbia has
been doing and his involvement. So far we are off on the right foot and he appreciated the
communication.

IV. Presentations
A. Dakota County Regional Park in Empire Township
Kurt Chatfield from Dakota County made a presentation about a proposed Dakota County Regional Park being
located in Empire Township. The following were the key points of his presentation:
. Distributed handouts that identified current deficiency in a regional park being located within five miles
from Farmington and parts of Lakeville and Rosemount.
. Described the requirement of the regional park was to provide a large passive area for activities such as
picnicking, water craft use, hiking/walking trails and enjoyment of natural areas and viewing wildlife.
. Analysis determined that the best site available in Dakota County was in Empire Township on the
Butler Family property due to it best meeting the requirements for a county regional park.

Dakota County Regional Park being located in Empire Township. APIF.
B. Winter Park Season Review
Don Hayes, Park Maintenance Supervisor gave a presentation on this past winter season's activities. Key points
of the presentation were as follows:
. In his opinion it was the best season that he has worked in the more than 20 years that he has worked for
the City.
. Due to cooperative weather, several rinks were able to be flooded in neighborhood parks.
. New snow removal priority policy was very beneficial and only received one phone call about the
policy late in the year.
. Biggest issue was along Pilot Knob Road trail where Dakota County would plow the roads and throw
the snow on top of the trail and then the City would have to come back out and replow the trail.
Buringa mentioned that he saw lights on at the rinks by Farmington Middle Schools. Hayes said that he wasn't
aware that they had been on and suggested that anytime someone sees the lights on at unusual hours, that he
would appreciate a phone call right away so that he can follow up and investigate why the lights were on.
VI New Business (item moved up on the agenda)
A. Lighting Issues at Rambling River Park's Tennis Courts
Don Hayes gave background information about the current lighting issues at the Rambling River Park's Tennis
Courts. These issues include the following:
Bulbs burning out and needing to be replaced annually
Some of the fixtures on three of the poles don't work at all
The age of the poles is a concern
The electrical service is not heavy enough to accommodate new lighting fixtures
Running a new electrical wiring would involve boring under the Vermillion River, which would require a permit
from the Department of Natural Resources
The cost to install new electrical service, new poles and new fixtures would run about $40,000.00.
Buringa questioned whether or not the City could purchase portable lights that could be used for the tennis
courts during the spring, summer and fall and then moved to the outdoor ice rinks in the winter for lighting the
outdoor hockey and pleasure rinks that are located by the Farmington Middle Schools. Hayes said that he did
not research portable lighting but that he could do some research and come back with some cost estimates.
Buringa moved and seconded by Johnson to have estimated costs associated with portable lighting be brought
back to the PRAC at its April meeting. APIF.
v. Old Business
A. Update on Recreational Facility Needs Study Report
Director Distad updated PRAC members on the status of the report. He informed them that the City Council
adopted the report and approved moving forward with the three key recommendations identified in the Report.
Higgins stated that she was pleased that the Report was received well by the City Council. Distad stated that the
next step is to send out Request for Proposals to consultants and then select a consultant based on the proposals
who will work with the City to complete a Community Center Study. He stated that the funding source for the
Community Center Study has to also be identified and once it is, the RFP would then be mailed out. By
consensus PRAC members agreed that the RFP should be sent out once the funding source was identified.
B. Discussion on Trail and Soccer Fields on St. Francis Health Care's Property
Director Distad reviewed the soccer and field conceptual plan with PRAC members. He stated that there will be
a presentation given of the conceptual plan to the St. Francis Board of Trustees later in March.
C. Review Farmington Lion's Club Wish List
Director Distad shared information about a wish list that was developed by City staff and Commissioner
Johnson on items that the City would like to see the Farmington Lion's Club fund. Buringa asked if a range of
the estimated costs could be identified for each item on the wish list. Distad said that he could add this to the
list. Buringa moved and Hanson seconded that the wish list be forwarded to the Farmington Lion's Club for
consideration. APIF
D. Update on Riverbend Development Plat
Director Distad provided a draft Final Plat for Riverbend Development to PRAC members that identified the
changes that were requested in regards to the trails being moved to the outside edge of the park, a parking lot
being shown in the park and future trail extensions on the east side of the development across North Creek and
to the north connecting with the Lakeville trail system. PRAC members by consensus seemed pleased with
these revisions.
E. Future Park and Open Space Map Review
Item was not discussed as the revised map was not completed and therefore was not available for review. By
consensus, PRAC members requested that it be brought to the April 2004 meeting for review if staff were able
to complete the map in time for the meeting.
F. Update on Farmington Youth Hockey Association Agreement
Director Distad stated that the City Council was polled and there was not any City Council members opposed to
negotiating an Agreement with FYHA. Distad said that he has forwarded a copy to Tom Hockert from the
FYHA for their review but has not heard anything back yet from FYHA. Distad stated that he will continue to
update PRAC members on the status of this Agreement.
VI. New Business
B. Empire Township PRAC Meeting
Director Distad stated that he has made contact with the Chair of the Empire Township PRAC and that they
would prefer that they meet with City staff first and then set up a meeting in the future to have a joint meeting
between Empire Township and the City PRACs. Distad stated that he has scheduled attending a meeting of the
Empire Township's PRAC in early April and will provide a report to Farmington PRAC members at the April
meeting.
C. MUSA Review Committee Report
Chair Oswald provided information to PRAC members about previous MUSA Review Committee meetings that
he has attended. The following key information was provided:
. First meeting that he attended was an orientation for all Committee members
. Second meeting was presentations by land owners who applied for and are requesting MUSA for their
property. He said the most interesting part of the presentations was that a lot ofthe land owners said
that they were contacted by the Farmington School District as a site for a new high school.
. Criteria was developed that the selection of property to be granted MUSA is based on.
Oswald would be willing to provide a MUSA Review Committee update at future PRAC meetings.
D. Community Center Study RFP
Director Distad shared the draft RFP that was developed for the Community Center Study. Only revision
suggested was to reduce the number of copies from 20 to 15. Distad said that he didn't think that interviews
were necessary to select the consultant and the staff would review the proposals and provide a recommendation
to PRAC at its May meeting.

Adopt Resolution - Support United States Congress Internet Access Tax
Ban Extension and Improvement Act (S. 2084) and Oppose the Internet
Nondiscrimination Act (S. 150)
DATE:
April 19, 2004
INTRODUCTION
The Apple Valley, Farmington and Rosemount Cable and Telecommunications
Commission is requesting each City Council adopt a resolution encouraging the United
States Congress to pass the Internet Tax Ban Extension and Improvement Act (S. 2084)
and oppose passing of the Internet Nondiscrimination Act (S. 150).
DISCUSSION
The United States Congress is currently considering legislation to make the Internet Tax
moratorium permanent and to expand the moratorium to include telecommunications
servIces.
Final passage ofthe Internet Tax Nondiscrimination Act (S. 150) is likely to exempt, by
its definition of "Internet access", digital subscriber lines (DSL) offered by local
telephone companies and cable modem offered by cable systems from all state and local
telephone and utility taxes.
S. 150 threatens a traditional municipal power that provides local government the ability
to impose gross receipts-based franchise fees as "rent" for use of public rights-of-way on
companies, such as telecommunications and cable service providers, that use public
property for private profit.
Local governments in the State of Minnesota would face losses of revenue in excess of
$40 million, which would directly translate into loss of local services to residents.
The Internet Access Tax Ban Extension and Improvement Act (S. 2084), is an alternative
proposal that would define "Internet access" in a way that preserves the ability of local
and state governments to continue to collect telecommunications taxes and franchise fees
which are a critical source of revenue for local services and an important mechanism for
local officials to protect consumers.
S. 2084 calls for a two-year extension ofthe existing moratorium on the imposition of
new telecommunications taxes, which give Congress, the FCC, industry, and local
governments time to determine the appropriate tax treatment for emerging
telecommunications;

ability to impose gross receipts-based franchise fees as "rent" for use of public rights-of-way on
companies. such as telecommunications and cable service providers, that use public property for
private profit; and,
WHEREAS, over one hundred years of court-supported municipal rights are at stake, including
City of St. Louis v. Western Union Tel. Co., 148 US 92. 99, 13 S.Ct. 485. 488 (1893) which
clarified that right-of-way fees are not taxes but payments in the form of rent. and City of Dallas
v. FCC. 118 F.3d 393 (5th Cir. 1997) which reiterated the holding of St. Louis when it found that
a franchise fee is not a tax, but an expense of doing business that is essentially a form of rent;
and.
WHEREAS. S. 150 would result in a huge tax giveaway to the telecommunications industry at
the expense of state and local taxpayers, small businesses, and working families by preempting
local and state tax collection of gross receipts taxes, rights-of-way fees, franchise fees. and other
existing taxes on telecommunications services at an estimated cost of more than $9 billion per
year; and,
WHEREAS, local governments in the State of Minnesota would face losses of revenue in excess
of $40 million, which would directly translate into losses of local services to residents; and.
WHEREAS, the City of Farmington received over $258,000 in 2002 and 2003 in cable franchise
fee revenues, the loss of which would adversely impact services and taxpayers; and,
WHEREAS, an alternative proposal, the Internet Access Tax Ban Extension and Improvement
Act (S. 2084), would define "Internet access" in a way that preserves the ability oflocal and state
governments to continue to collect telecommunications taxes and franchise fees which are a
critical source of revenue for local services and an important mechanism for local officials to
protect consumers; and,
WHEREAS, S. 2084 calls for a two-year extension ofthe existing moratorium on the imposition
of new telecommunications taxes, which give Congress, the FCC, industry, and local

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City of Farmington strongly encourages
the United States Congress to pass the Internet Access Tax Ban Extension and Improvement Act
(S. 2084) which defines "Internet access" in a way that preserves the ability oflocal and state
governments to collect telecommunications taxes and franchise fees to continue to support vital
local services.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City of Farmington expressly oppose S. 150 as it is
currently written because it minimizes traditional municipal powers and will have far-reaching
adverse impacts on the ability of cites and states to collect fair compensation related to the use of
public property for private profit.

Authorize Use of Eminent Domain - Main Street Project
DATE:
April 19, 2004
INTRODUCTION
As part of the Main Street Project, Phase 2, the City's pond PW-P1.14, as designated in the City's
Surface Water Management Plan (SWMP), more commonly known as the Wausau Pond, needs to be
expanded (as outlined in the 2/2/04 memo to Council). The pond is located adjacent to and partially
on the former Wausau property, now owned by Dakota Storage LLC.
DISCUSSION
Staff has been in contact with the property owner and is in the process of working out an agreement
for the acquisition of the necessary easements (see attached easement drawing and offer letter). As of
the writing of this memo, an agreement is not yet finalized. At this time, it is recommended that the
Council authorize staff to initiate the condemnation "quick take" process for the easements needed, to
insure that the City can expand the pond this summer in conjunction with the Main Street Project,
since the quick take process takes 90 days. Staff will continue to work with the property owner with
the goal of reaching an agreement for the easements before condemnation is ultimately necessary.
BUDGET IMPACT
The offer for the easements needed, as outlined in the appraisal is $27,500. This amount would be
funded out of the Storm Water Fund.
ACTION REOUESTED
Adopt the attached resolution authorizing condemnation of property for public uses with the "quick
take" provisions of Minnesota Statute Section 117.042. If an agreement is reached before the 90 days
are up, the quick take process will be dropped.

Re: Pond PW - P1.14 Expansion Project
Dear Mr. Kiehm:
Pursuant to our recent discussions, the City forwards the following offer of compensation for the
easements the City needs to acquire for the above referenced project.
The City needs to acquire an easement for storm water ponding purposes in order to expand the
existing pond along the east side of your property. The area of the permanent easement needed is
16,540 square feet (see attached easement drawing). A 10-foot temporary easement along the
westerly line of the ease~ent area is also needed for construction purposes.
The City has performed an appraisal for the easement. Based on the appraisal, the City offers
$27,500 for the permanent and temporary easements, damage. to site improvements and tax
reimbursement (see attached letter).
In regards to the concerns discussed at our most recent meeting of March 18, 2004, on this topic:
1. The storm water pond, as proposed, will have the capacity to accept the runoff from your
property in its entirely built-out state.
2. A future parking area adjacent to the pond north of the existing "cul-de-sac" may discharge to
the pond. Surface draining to the pond will create erosion problems and ultimately could
cause damage to the parking lot pavement. The best solution to draining a parking lot in this
area would entail routing the water to the southeast comer and discharging to the pond
through a short piping system.
3. City staff has completed a preliminary study of the number parking spaces that would be
possible in the area between the sewer and water easement and the proposed westerly limits of
the pond. Our study indicates that a layout of approximately 60+ spaces may be possible.
This layout does not include building the parking lot over the sewer and water line easement.
Mr Marty Kiehm
April 7, 2004
Page 2
This item needs further discussion in regards to your future parking needs and the parking lot
layout.
The City would like to complete this acquisition process as soon as practical. As the pond expansion
is needed for the Main Street project that will be constructed this summer, staff will be
recommending to the City Council that the quick take process be initiated at the April 19, 2004 City
Council meeting, in order to insure that the project can be completed this year. At such time an
agreement is reached in this matter, the quick take process will be discontinued.
Please contact me contact me at your earliest convenience so that we can arrange a meeting to further
discuss these matters, if possible, before April 19th.
Sincerely,

Dear Mr. Mann:
At your request, we have completed an appraisal of the above captioned property for the
purpose of estimating just compensation due for a partial taking. The function of this
appraisal is to provide the City, valuation guidance for the purchase of an easement for the
development of a storm water retention pond.
In this report, we have invoked the Departure Rule of the Uniform Standards of Professional
Appraisal Practice (USPAP). Considering how the property is presently improved and the
extent of the partial taking, only the subject land will be appraised, in both the before and
after conditions. As a limited appraisal, only the most relevant market data was studied and
approaches to value were completed. .
Per agreement, this appraisal is presented in a Summary reporting format, as described in
USPAP Standards Rule 2 - 2(b). In other words, this report presents only summary
discussions of the data and analyses used in the appraisal process. Additional information
and documentation concerning the data and analyses of this appraisal is retained in our files.
Based upon the inspection of the property and consideration of the many factors influencing
market value, as of March 10, 2004, the market value of the subject property and estimate of
damages is as follows:
Skyline Square Building, Suite 220 · 12940 Harriet Avenue South · Burnsville, MN 55337

FROM: RandyDistad, Parks and Recreation Director
SUBJECT: Approving Park Planning and Park Development Schedule
DATE: April 19, 2004
INTRODUCTION
A park planning and park development schedule currently does not exist for the City's Park System.
DISCUSSION
As part of the Recreational Facility Needs Study Report, one of the key recommendations identified was
the development of a Park and Recreation Systems Plan (Systems Plan). One piece of the Systems Plan
that staff and the Parks and Recreation Advisory Commission is prepared to have the City Council
approve is a schedule that identifies when park master plans will be created for each park and when the
park master plan will be implemented through either the initial development of new parks or the
redevelopment of existing parks. Attached in Exhibit A is the schedule that staff and the Park and
Recreation Advisory Commission have developed that the City Council is being asked to approve. The
park rotation identified in Exhibit A is based on splitting the community into three sections: north,
middle and south. Then as much as possible, at least one park in each section was identified to be
reviewed every year and at least one park in each section would have development occur every year.
The schedule provides for each park to be reviewed every seven years.
In 2003, the City began a process of soliciting community input on the creation of master plans for
Meadowview and Tamarack Parks. The public seemed to appreciate the opportunity to provide input in
the planning and design of these two parks. Hoisington, Koegler Group, Inc. (HKGI) was hired by the
City to develop the Meadowview Park Master Plan. Using HKGI provided an unbiased and objectively
driven park planning method. Staff would like to have the opportunity to work with a consultant in the
development of future park master plans for a five year period (2004-2008) and is requesting that the
City Council consider entering into a longer term agreement with a park planning consultant. Each year
staff would work with the consultant to determine the park planning cost and would then provide this
information to the City Council. The costs would be based on the planning of parks that are identified in
the park planning and development schedule that is identified in Exhibit A.
A park development schedule will also provide direction for capital budgeting purposes. The schedule
for the development and redevelopment of parks provides needed long range planning for the City as it
continues to receive new park land as well as addresses how existing parks will be redeveloped. It
seems to make sense that new parks that are developed should receive funding through the park
dedication process. At the same time, the City should also develop a vision or goal for how to pay for
the cost to redevelop existing parks. Eventually the City will reach a point where there will be less park
dedication being received than what is needed to pay for the redevelopment of its existing parks. It also
seems to make some sense to begin the process of discussing and planning for how the funding of the
redevelopment of City parks will occur. Exhibit A identifies estimated costs to create a master plan for
each park and also provides an estimated cost to develop or redevelop each park based on projected park
development items.
BUDGET IMPACT
In 2003, the fee to develop the park master plan for Meadowview Park was $5,650.00 plus incidentals.
By approaching this as a five year agreement to develop park master plans for the City, staff believes
that the quotes should be favorable to develop park master plans due to the knowledge that there will be
work for the consultant over a five year period.
ACTION REOUESTED
By motion approve both the master plan and park development schedule that is included in the packet
and sending a Request for Proposal to consultants for a five year agreement to develop park master plans
for the City.

FROM:
Robin Roland, Finance Director
SUBJECT:
Liquor Store Operations
DATE:
April 19, 2004
INTRODUCTION
The lease on the Pilot Knob liquor store location will expire on July 1,2004 and staff is
exploring an opportunity to relocate the store and increase its size.
DISCUSSION
In March 2002, staffwas approached by Jon & Del Einess with regard to the Farmington
Marketplace retail development and inclusion of a larger liquor store operation as part of
that project. Although their proposal was a very reasonable one, the five year lease for
the current location was only half complete and moving the store at that time would have
required double lease payments for the balance of the lease. Financial analysis done at
the time indicated an unfavorable situation - although it could have been done, it would
have been too large a risk given sales volatility.
With the imminent expiration of the existing lease, we have received a proposal from
Einess for space in a new building they are developing on the vacant lot between the
current liquor store location and the bank/vet clinic building. The proposal is for a 4700
sq. ft. space in an approximately 10,000 sq. ft. retail building, with one or two other retail
tenants taking the remaining space. This would virtually double the amount of store
square footage and would allow for greater merchandising possibilities and increased
sales, particularly of wine and beer.
Current projections indicate that the new liquor store space would be ready for occupancy
by November 2004. This would require a month to month lease at our current location
from July to December (6 months). The current landlord has been advised of these
intentions.
BUDGET IMPACT
A financial analysis ofthe projected impact on operations will be presented at the Council
meeting.
ACTION REOUIRED
Ultimately, the lease agreement for the Pilot Knob liquor store space will come to
Council for approval. However, at this time, staff is requesting Council consensus to
continue on the current path to securing the new and expanded lease space for the Pilot
Knob liquor store.

SUBJECT: MNPRO Community Profile for Farmington
DATE: April 19, 2004
INTRODUCTION
The Department of Employment and Economic Development offers a website, MNPRO, which lists
available properties and community profiles for each community in Minnesota. Community profiles
are informational reports that summarize statistical data and other useful facts. Each profile includes
demographics, workforce, employers, utilities, transportation, education, business and community
services and more. MNPRO has over 800 community profiles including 854 cities and 11 Indian
reservations. The link to this website is www.mnpro.com.
DISCUSSION
At the beginning of my internship experience I was asked to take a look at Farmington's community
profile on the MNPRO website and to update any information that was out of date. Over the past few
months, major Farmington employers have been contacted as well as banks, medical facilities,
newspapers, and ISD 192 to gather current information to update the profile. City staff provided
additional information regarding water and wastewater services, housing and commercial activity,
recreation, city budget and property tax. Information from Dakota County, the State of Minnesota,
and the Met Council was obtained via their websites. The majority of the information that appears on
the MNPRO web site is provided by and updated by the city.
MNPRO also allows cities to include information for specific development sites. City staff has
updated our MNPRO profile to show the McVicker property, which is currently the subject of a
"Request for Proposals" that was prepared and distributed by the Farmington HRA. Along with
including information such as lot size, location, zoning, price and descriptions of property, a photo
can be attached to the site so that the viewer can see what the property looks like. This will be a good
way to market land that is available throughout Farmington.

Minnesota commercial real estate taxes are based upon market value of taxable property as set by the local assessor. To
compute the tax for the year 2004, first compute the tax capacity by multiplying all property value up to $150,000
times .015, plus any value over $150,000 times .02. Tax capacity times the tax rate equals taxes owed. In some localities
where voters have approved referendums, an additional referendum tax must be added, calculated by multiplying the
referendum tax rate times the total market value of the commercial property.
Net tax capacity on a $200,000 business property: ($150,000 * .015) + ($50,000 * .02) = $2,250 + $1,000 = $3,250

Minnesota commercial real estate taxes are based upon market value of taxable property as set by the local assessor. To
compute the tax for the year 2004, first compute the tax capacity by multiplying all property value up to $150,000
times .015, plus any value over $150,000 times .02. Tax capacity times the tax rate equals taxes owed. In some localities
where voters have approved referendums, an additional referendum tax must be added, calculated by multiplying the
referendum tax rate times the total market value ofthe commercial property.
Net tax capacity on a $200,000 business property: ($150,000 * .015) + ($50,000 * .02) = $2,250 + $1,000 = $3,250

First Quarter 2004 Building Report and Population Estimate
DATE:
April 19, 2004
INTRODUCTION
The following is a report summarizing (a) the new construction permits issued during the fIrst quarter of
2004 and (b) an updated population estimate for the City of Farmington.
DISCUSSION
Building Permits: During the first quarter of 2004 (January 1, 2004 to March 31, 2004) the City issued
new residential building permits for 45 single-family home, 38 owner-occupied townhouse units and one
rental duplex, for a total of 85 new housing units. One new commercial building permit was approved
during the fIrst quarter.
The average building valuation of the single-family homes during the fIrst quarter of 2004 was $203,107,
up from $186,800 during the same period last year. The average building valuation of the owner- .
occupied townhome units through the fIrst quarter of 2004 was $122,384, up from $120,371 during the
same period in 2003. The value of the rental duplex referred to above was $324,400. (Note that the
valuation averages do not represent the overall sale or market value of the home; since they do not include
the value of the lot or any amenities added to the home that are not part of the building code formula).
Population Estimate: At the beginning of 2003, City staff decided that each quarterly building permit
report should also include an updated population estimate for the City of Farmington. After discussing
several methods of calculating population, a decision was made to base our population estimates on
CertifIcates of Occupancy rather than upon building permits. Building permit activity is not a "real time"
reflection of actual population, given the "lag time" between the issuance of the permit and the actual
occupancy of the dwelling unit (i.e., the time required to construct, market and sell the home).
Accordingly, staff started with the City population as of April1, 2000 (as determined by the U.S. Census
Bureau) and then determined the number of Certificates of Occupancy [C.O.s] issued by the City since
that date. The number of C.O.s was multiplied by 2.95, which was (according to the 2000 Census) the
average number of occupants per Farmington dwelling unit. The resulting calculations are as
follows:
12,365
+ 885
13,250
+ 1478
14,728
Estimated Population as of 4/1/00, per 2000 Census
= 300 CertifIcates of Occupancy issued for the period 4/1/00 to 12/31/00 X 2.95
Estimated Population as of 1/1/01
= 501 CertifIcates of Occupancy issued for 2001 X 2.95
Estimated Population as of 1/1/02
+ 1888
16,616
+ 336
16,952
+ 525
17,477
+ 434
17,911
+ 371
18,282
+ 260
18,542
= 640 Certificates of Occupancy issued for 2002 X 2.95
Estimated Population as of 1/1/03
= 114 Certificates of Occupancy issued for the period 1/1/03 to 3/31/03 X 2.95
Estimated Population as of March 31, 2003
= 178 Certificates of Occupancy issued for the period from 4/1/03 to 6/30/03 X 2.95
Estimated Population as of June 30, 2003
= 147 Certificates of Occupancy issued for the period from 7/1/03 to 9/30/03 X 2.95
Estimated Population as of September 30, 2003
= 126 Certificates of Occupancy issued for the period from 10/1/03 to 12/11/03 X 2.95
Estimated Population as of September 30, 2003
= 88 Certificates of Occupancy issued for the period from 1/1/04 to 3/31/04 X 2.95
Estimated Population as of March 31, 2004

TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: David Urbia, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Council Goal Setting Session
DATE: April 19, 2004
INTRODUCTION
At the April 6, 2004 Council Workshop during discussion of City Administrator expectations,
the council requested that I obtain a proposal from Mr. Don Salverda for a goal setting session.
Council indicated that May 8th would be a date that would work for all members. Additionally,
there was discussion of having a Friday evening option to allow more time to complete the
agenda items of this session.
DISCUSSION
After the meeting, I was made aware that two councilmembers would not be able to attend May
7th, so I requested a one day quote for May 8th when I met with Mr. Salverda last Friday.
When discussing this session with the Management Team, there were potential scheduling
conflicts with May 8th, but more importantly, valid suggestions regarding the timing of the
session. As the Capital Improvement Program will be ready for the June 7th meeting, it was
suggested to meet after this information is available. Further, it was suggested that instead of the
format from Mr. Salverda to have a strategic planning session regarding the capital improvement
plan, as the priorities selected will provide direction to staff This option would not require a
facilitator. I discussed this alternative with Mr. Salverda and he concurred that ranking priorities
of the capital improvement plan would not require a facilitator, however, that there is still
definite benefit to having this one day goal-setting/team building format. He provided an
alternative arrangement, the Tuesday evenings of June 15th and June 22nd from 5:30 ~.m. to 9:30
p.m. to cover the agenda items in the proposal (Items number one and two on the 15t and three
and four on the 22nd). A further recommendation is straight away in January 2005 a goal
setting/team building session retreat for two days, off-site is arranged.
BUDGET IMPACT
The proposal calls for $2,000.00. There would be additional cost for lunch. The budgeted line-
item for council workshops is $2,000.00.
ACTION REQUESTED
Further discussion to provide direction on which option the council desires. I believe some
fonnat this year is necessary to review/validate existing goals and to provide further/future
direction to staff, taking into account the capital improvement program.
Respectfully submitted,
