3. CITIZEN COMMENTS
4. COUNCIL REVIEW OF AGENDA
Councilmember Fogarty asked about the dollar difference for 2008 for the Civil Engineer
position. The amount would be $10,000 and it will be spread between several funds.
Councilmember McKnight asked about the extension for recording of the plat for
Charleswood Marketplace and what it does to the timeline for the development. City
Attorney J amnik explained it does not affect the timeline. The developer has requested
the extension because time is running out for recording of the agreement. The
Development Agreement is not ready and the developer is also not ready. The
Development Agreement, other documents and the plat would all be recorded together.
Councilmember Wilson also asked about the extension and if there was anything unusual
causing the extension. There is not. He recalled one obstacle for the developer was
working with Northern Natural Gas and asked if that had been resolved. City Attorney
Jamnik stated that has not been discussed in recent meetings. Councilmember Wilson
asked how Finance Director Roland would characterize the $20,000 as a result of the
sales tax audit. Finance Director Roland explained half of it is items that were fees and
charges that were taxable, but were not taxed due to a misunderstanding of the law. The
other half is use tax on items the City purchases.
Councilmember Pritzlaff asked about summer hours. He noted last year he requested a
tabulation as to how many residents benefited from being open early or late. He also
Council Minutes (Pre-Meeting)
March 5, 2007
Page 2
asked what other cities do. Surrounding cities do not have summer hours. He has
received comments both ways from residents and felt it was not being used by the
residents as much as anticipated. As far as City projects, Engineering is aware they may
have to work Friday afternoons if a project requires it. There are also Park and Rec
programs Friday afternoons, so they were allowed flexibility during the week.
Councilmember Pritzlaff also received comments that being closed Friday afternoons
hindered residents from getting inspections for weekend proj ects. He did not like the
wording ofthe action requested as information only. It has not been made a City policy.
Councilmember Pritzlaff also asked about going back to a Civil Engineering position.
Staff replied the level of work requires a Civil Engineering degree. This also positions
the City for having more City staff in the Engineering division. Councilmember Pritzlaff
then asked about the list of bills and if they are paid before the list of bills is approved.
He was concerned with the $2,275 for Pellicci Hardware. Staff explained this amount is
for one month. Some of the bills are mailed prior to Council approval to take advantage
of discounts. Significant sized payments are held until after the Council meeting.
5. STAFF COMMENTS
City Attorney Jamnik added an item to the agenda to authorize staff to purchase property.
There is a home on the market in the location for an extension of a City street.
City Administrator Herlofsky will be out of the office the next two weeks and asked if
Council wanted to postpone the regularly scheduled workshop. Council agreed to not
hold the March workshop.
There will be a quorum of the Council at the Partners in Progress event. It was decided
to recess the regular meeting and adjourn the meeting after the event on Wednesday.
Councilmember Wilson asked for a list of workshop topics. This will be included in the
weekly update.

b) 2007 Seal Coat Project Assessment Hearing - Engineering
This program is implemented in a seven-year cycle. The City participates in a
Joint Powers Agreement with several other cities. The total estimated project cost
is $210,000. The assessment policy indicates a 50/50 split between the City and
benefiting properties. The estimated assessment is $79.30IREU. The oil
specified in the joint powers agreement was changed which resulted in an
increased bid amount. This oil is polymerized and is more expensive. This would
result in an estimated assessment of $86.601RED. Staff contacted the low bidder
to provide the standard oil used in the past. Therefore, the assessment will be
$79.30IREU. Areas due for reconstruction will not be seal coated. MOTION by
McKnight, second by Pritzlaffto close the public hearing. APIF, MOTION
CARRIED. MOTION by Fogarty, second by McKnight to adopt

Hello,
We are the people who contract with your City to provide animal con-
trol services. Recently, we incorporated our business to reorganize our
financial structure in order to secure a loan for building our own im-
pound facility. As one of the requirements for incorporating we need to
assign our contract with your City to our new business entity in accor-
dance with our contract with you (Section 9-Assignment). Could you
please send written confirmation that your City consents to the assign-
ment of the Contract which would, in affect, amend the Contract to an
agreement between the City and 4 Paws Animal Control, LLC rather
than 4 PAWS Animal Control and/or Curt Finch as its owner.
Thank you.

SUBJECT: Approve Text Amendment - Discharge into Storm Sewer System
DATE: March 19,2007
INTRODUCTION
City staff is proposing to amend Section 6-1-54 pertaining to water flowing upon public streets and
amend Title 8 Chapter 10 of the City Code pertaining to discharges into the City's storm sewer system.
The proposed amendments provide a detailed description of what type of discharge is allowed into the
system.
DISCUSSION
The Planning Commission reviewed the amendments at its meeting on March 13,2007 and unanimously
recommended approval of the text amendments by the City Council.
In Section 6-1-54, the proposed revision would allow a groundwater sump pump to discharge onto the
public thoroughfare, street, sidewalk, alley, sanitary sewer, park or other public place.
The addition of text in Title 8 Chapter 10 of the city code will define the type of discharge that will be
allowed into the City's storm sewer system. The following text is the proposed amendment to the code:
8-10-11: DISCHARGES INTO THE STORM SEWER SYSTEM: Discharge of any
manmade or naturally occurring substances into the City's municipal storm sewer system is
prohibited except:
1. Water from any roof.
2. Surface water runoff from natural precipitation or water obtained from the
municipal water supply.
3. Water from a groundwater sump pump.
4. Water from a footing tile around the foundation of a structure.
5. Water from a swimming pool that originated from the municipal water supply.
Staff believes that the proposed amendments clarify the type of discharges allowed on public property and
into the storm sewer system.
ACTION REQUESTED
Approve the attached Ordinance revisions to Section 6-1-54 and Title 8 Chapter 10 of the City Code.
Respectfully Submitted,

TO: Mayor, Councilmembers, City Administrator 1&
FROM: Lee M. Mann, P.E., Director of Public Works/City Engineer
SUBJECT: Private Development Street Sweeping Contract
DATE: March 19,2007
INTRODUCTION
Staff has solicited quotes for street cleaning services in the private developments for 2007-08 (two
year agreement). The request for proposals for street cleaning services was advertised in the
Farmington Independent and the Farmington This Week for two weeks.
DISCUSSION
It is stipulated in all private development contracts that the Developer is responsible to keep the
streets clear of soil and debris. It has proven to be very difficult to enforce this issue, and the amount
of soil and debris in the streets is significant at times. The City has the right under the Development
Contract to perform work and bill the costs to the Developer when there is a default of the contract.
Failing to keep the streets clean is considered a default of the Development Contract, and allows the
City to take proper remedial action.
The streets need to be kept clean for two main reasons. First, if the streets are not kept clean, soil and
debris is washed into the storm sewer system and holding ponds during rainfall events. If the debris
gets into a system downstream of the development, taxpayer dollars will need to be expended to clean
the system and ponds. Secondly, staff has received numerous complaints from residents regarding
the difficulties navigating streets coated in dirt and mud.
Generally, the developments will be inspected on Mondays and Thursdays after 12:00 p.m. The
City's contractor will clean those streets that are not clean by the time the inspection is completed, on
the following day (Tuesdays and Fridays). The cost for street cleaning services including an
administrative fee will be billed back to the Developer.
As in the past, it will be entirely up to the Developer as to whether or not the City assists him/her
with street cleaning. If all of the streets within a development are clean at the time of inspection on
Monday and Thursday, the City's contractor will not be ordered to clean the streets in that
development and the Developer will not be billed for street cleaning at that time. The only exception
to this is if staff is made aware of a situation that needs to be addressed immediately and the
Developer cannot respond as needed.
BUDGET IMPACT
Three quotations were received this year. The lowest quote for sweeper services was $73.98/hour and
skid loader services at $60/hour. The prices quoted for this contract are $1.02/hour lower for street
sweeping and $5.00/hour lower for skid loader work when compared to last years contracted prices.
Staff is recommending awarding the contract to the contractor, Environmental Enhancements, LLC,
out of North field.
The cost to the developer will be $60/hour for skid loader work and $73.98/hour for sweeper work.
ACTION REQUESTED
Approve the award of contract for street cleaning services to Environmental Enhancements, LLC.

FROM: Lee M. Mann, P.E., Director of Public Works/City Engineer
Randy Distad, Parks and Recreation Director
SUBJECT: Dakota County Sentenced to Service Contract
DATE: March 19,2007
INTRODUCTION
Attached herewith for Council's approval is a Sentenced To Service (STS) contract between the City
and Dakota County.
DISCUSSION
Dakota County operates a STS program. The program was developed to supervise the completion of
court ordered community service. It is most typically an alternative used in place of a jail term.
Participants are non-dangerous offenders who have been screened by program staff.
As part of this program, Dakota County makes STS crews available to non-profit organizations as
well as State and local governments. Upon execution of a contract with Dakota County, crews are
made available to do many types of work including, park clean up, construction labor, landscaping,
painting and trail construction and maintenance. The size of the crew ranges from five to ten
crewmembers. These crewmembers are supervised by a working crew leader who is a contractor,
hired by Dakota County.
Currently, the City has several projects that would benefit from the additional manpower provided by
a STS crew. Both Parks and Recreation and Public Works would utilize the crew for a total of four
weeks during the year. Parks and Recreation would utilize a crew to work in the Meadowview Park
for two weeks. Work in the Meadowview Park may include boardwalk construction as well as
buckthorn and thistle removal. Public Works would utilize the crews to install wetland buffer signs
around some of the older ponds in the City which were not signed as part of the original
developments. While part of the crew installs buffer signs, the remaining crew members will remove
buckthorn and thistles from the wetland areas.
There are several benefits from using an STS crew to accomplish the above-mentioned work. First, a
crew can more efficiently accomplish the work in a shorter amount of time. Secondly, the use of an
STS crew to accomplish this work will free-up City staff to work on projects that require a higher
skill level, and that also have a higher priority from a citywide perspective. Finally, the cost to the
Dakota County Sentenced to Service Contract
March 19, 2007
Page 2
City to accomplish this work is reduced. The number of person-hours worked per week will vary
from 240 to 440 depending on the size of the crew (crews vary in size from a minimum of 5 to a
maximum of 10 as mentioned above). This will cost the City $2,045 per week. To employ one
seasonal worker to accomplish 240 hours of work would cost the City $2,011 in salary alone, not to
mention workers compensation insurance and other overhead costs associated with City employment.
BUDGET IMPACT
The cost associated with this contract would be covered by monies from Parks and Recreation and
Public Works, currently incorporated into the City's annual budget. Public Works proposes to use
Professional Services monies from the Stormwater Utility Fund to cover its $4,090 (two weeks of
work) share of the cost for utilizing the STS Program.
In order to cover the cost to the Parks and Recreation Department for utilizing the STS program, the
Parks and Recreation Department is proposing to reallocate $4,090 (two weeks of work) from the
2007 Parks Maintenance Division budget's Salaries Part-Time account. As a result, one fewer
seasonal staff will be hired this summer than was hired in 2006. Given that a crew of 5-10 adults will
be working on assembling the boardwalk and eradicating buckthorn and thistles at one time, the
number of hours provided through this contract will at least equal and more likely exceed that of
hiring one seasonal staff member. This will allow full-time and seasonal staff to focus on completing
not only daily maintenance work but also complete other improvement projects in the parks.
ACTION REQUESTED
Approve attached STS contract with Dakota County.

INTRODUCTION
"Cities and towns grow stronger - and smarter - when parks, open space, trails and
programs are a vital component of the overall vision. "
MISSION STATEMENT
Early in 2006, Parks and Recreation staff held a retreat to create a mission statement and define guiding
vision statements for our Department. The mission statement that has been created defines the broad intent
of why we believe our Department exists and what purposes it serves. The mission statement is as follows:
"The Parks and Recreation Department's mission is to provide quality facilities, parks, programs and
environment that fulfills customer expectations, improves the quality of life and promotes community unity. "
VISION STATEMENTS
The vision statements that were created during the retreat provide the direction of what the Department
wants to achieve. It gives shape and direction to the Department's future. It's a target that we have set for our
Department and want to reach into the future. Department staff believes that the vision statements created
will challenge and shape our Department well into the future.
. Expand the City's indoor and outdoor recreational facilities.
. Communicate and publicize the City's trail system.
. Eliminate all barriers.
. Re-assess existing programs and introduce new programs.
. Create a diverse and premiere park system.
. Utilize technology to improve efficiencies.
. Keep communicating.
. Explore and create partnerships
At the beginning of2006, the Parks and Recreation Department (the Department) consisted of four divisions:
Recreation, Parks, Facilities and Solid Waste. The Department employed 20 full and I part time staff and
103 seasonal staff making it the largest City Department. Midway through 2006, the Department was
reorganized and Solid Waste Division was moved back under the Public Works Department reducing the
full-time staff positions for the Department to twelve. In addition to paid staff, the Department was very
fortunate to have a wonderful group of dedicated volunteers to help when and where needed. A total of 928
volunteers logged in excess of 5,000 hours assisting in many areas including the day-to-day activities and
special events at the Rambling River Center, working as coaches in recreation programs such as T -Ball and
Basketball and as event workers at special events such as the Dew Run, Secret Holiday Shop and Halloween
Walk. They were also instrumental keeping our parks, ponds and trails clean and green throughout the year.
Department staff members are dedicated individuals who have a strong work ethic and are responsible for
many public services, programs and facilities provided by the City on a year round basis. These include:
* recreation programs
* special events
* outdoor pool programming, maintenance and operations
3
* park maintenance and development
* trail maintenance and development
* outdoor ice skating rinks
* operation and maintenance of the City's Rambling River Center
* operation and maintenance of the Schmitz-Maki Arena
* maintenance and upkeep of City facilities (City Hall, Fire Stations, CMF, Police etc.)
In conjunction with staff delivering services in facilities, parks and recreation programs to the public, the
Department also received input and recommendations in 2006 from a five-member citizen's Parks and
Recreation Advisory Commission and a seven-member citizen's Rambling River Center Advisory Board.
The 2006 Capital Budget resulted in the Department being able to purchase new equipment and vehicles:
Parks:
* 1 Y2 ton dump truck,
* complete a trade for a new John Deere tractor
* a front mount broom for snow removal on outdoor rinks, sidewalks and trails
* a zero turn radius deck mower
Facilities:
* ice making machine at the Central Maintenance Facility
* ice resurfacer for the Schmitz-Maki Arena
* installation of new sheets of tempered glass above the dasher boards
* a % ton 4 x 4 pickup truck
The Department continued with future planning of City parks and recreational facilities. Some of the
planning highlights in 2006 included:
. Further study of a community center was completed by an ad-hoc committee consisting of two Park and
Recreation Advisory Commission members, two City Council members, two Farmington School District
representatives, two Rambling River Center Advisory Board members and City staff. A conceptual
design for community center space and outdoor fields was created and a recommendation was made to
the City Council to move forward with a referendum. Due to budget constraints the City Council
decided to not move forward with a voter referendum.
. Park master plans for Dakota County Estates Park, Daisy Knoll Park, Westview Park and an adult
softball complex in the future park area of the Mystic Meadows Second Addition were created through
public input and were approved by the Park and Recreation Advisory Commission and City Council.
Hoisington Koegler Group, Inc was hired to work with the City to develop these park master plans.
. A 5-year Capital Improvement Plan for parks was updated and was approved by the City Council as part
of the annual budget process.
On a sad note, in July the Department experienced a significant loss in the death of a young, vibrant,
seasonal staff member from a tragic car-pedestrian accident. First year seasonal staff member, Jacque
Devney, was tragically struck and killed July 27 by a vehicle as she performed park maintenance duties.
Jacque demonstrated a great work ethic and a personality to match and we were fortunate to have had her as
one of our employees. The Devney family has conveyed their wishes to work with the City to construct a
memorial in Jacque's honor sometime in the future.

2006 BUDGET OVERVIEW
The chart below shows budget expenditures and revenue amounts received in 2006 and are based on pre-
audited amounts.
Budget Highlights Include
~ General Fund budget expenditures for all Divisions were $45,000 under budget.
~ General Fund budget revenues for all Divisions were short of meeting budget by $5,194.
~ The Outdoor Pool and Rambling River Center budgets were under the budgeted expenditure amounts.
~ Revenues at the Outdoor Pool exceeded the budgeted amount by $4,600. This increase in actual revenues
combined with the less then anticipated expenditures resulted in less money ($36,000), that had to be
transferred from the City General Fund.
~ The Rambling River Center was under budget in expenditures by approximately $12,000 resulting in a
lesser amount of General Fund monies being transferred.
~ While the Park Improvement Fund was over budget there were several reasons for this:

Youth Scholarship Program
In 2006, the Farmington Youth Scholarship program assisted 67 youth. Individuals accessed $2,523 in
scholarship monies, which was used to cover fees for aquatic activities, skating lessons and youth recreation
programs. In 2006 the scholarship program was supported through a generous contribution from the Rotary
Club of Farmington and a donation from FY AA in honor of Robin Hanson, a long time supporter of youth
sports in the Farmington area. The scholarship program provides registration/fee assistance to income
qualified families or families who are experiencing short term unanticipated personal or financial
circumstances thus creating a hardship for their children to participate in recreation programs.
Year Number of Scholarships Awarded Total Value of Scholarships Granted
2004 24 $671.00
2005 28 $1,566.00
2006 26 $2,523,00
Recreation Program Registrations
The City continued to utilize on-line registrations for recreation programs in 2006. The pie graphs shown on
the next page gives a breakdown of how people registered and how they paid for programs. As noted, more
than 68% of the people registering for recreation programs in 2006, completed registrations on-line at their
convemence.
Since the on-line registration system allowed people to use credit/debit cards to pay for programs many
people took advantage of this. The payment pie graph reflects this with close to 74% of all registration
payments made via credit/debit cards.

PARKS
"Concern for the environment and access to parks and open space is not frivolous or peripheral, rather, it
is central to the welfare of people body, mind, and spirit." -LAURANCE ROCKEFELLER
2006 was very a gratifying year for what was accomplished in the City's park system. The City's park
system continued to make progress. The City Council approved funding in the 2006 budget to initially
develop a new park in the Meadow Creek Third Addition and redevelop Evergreen Knoll Park and Depot
Way Arts Park. The development and redevelopment of these three parks was based on the master plans that
were approved by the City Council in 2005 and after public and Park and Recreation Advisory Commission
input. Significant park maintenance tasks were completed including:
Throughout 2006 staff continued to implement ways to further reduce labor and material costs yet keep the
quality and beauty of parks and open spaces unchanged. Projects completed in 2006 that accomplished this
included:
* Re-landscaping of the flower beds and tree design around the city entrance signs. This redesign
resulted in easier beds to maintain and provided additional flowers, trees and shrubs that could be
transplanted elsewhere in the park system and tree nursery.
* At Feely Fields and Rambling River Park staff sprayed fence lines with weed killer and removed split
rail fences to reduce staff time needed for weed whipping.
* Two dog waste container stations were installed in Autumn Glen and emptied weekly on the regular
scheduled garbage run.
* The horticultural crew planted & maintained a diverse collection of planters, floral beds and
landscaped areas throughout the City. A seasonal staff person, who has a very "green thumb", had
extra flower seeds and planted them in some of the planters resulting in a spectacular array of colors
and unique designs.
* On a seasonal basis, staff performed many tasks getting facilities and parks prepared including repairs
to the hockey rinks boards; painting rink boards and ice surfaces; replacing tennis court light bulbs
and nets; installing volleyball nets, basketball nets; removing and replacing bases on ball fields;
eradicating rodents and insects, hanging and removing Christmas street decorations; flooding outside
ice rinks, replacinc protective netting on ball fields; and adding ag-lime to the infields at ball fields.
Many routine maintenance tasks that consume a large part of stafftime are completed annually. Including:
* mowing and trimming grass
* playground inspections and repair
* tree trimming
* ballfield dragging
* painted lines for softball, baseball and touch football fields
* core aerating the soil in park turf areas
* fertilizing & spraying weeds
* overseeding and reseeding park turf areas
* removal of garbage
* snow removal
* picking litter
25
Beyond the projects completed and maintenance work performed, Park Maintenance staffwere involved in
many special events throughout the year including, set-up and tear-down for Rambling River Days, Pollution
Prevention Day, Earth & Arbor Day, Halloween Walk, Peddler in Park, softball tournaments and polling
places for the general election. They also assisted the Facilities staff in taking the ice out at Schmitz-Maki
Arena. Additionally, Park Maintenance staff members also serve on various citywide committees including,
Employee Club, Safety Committee, Rambling River Days committee and Green Team.
A description of park improvements accomplished by staff members in 2006 are provided below.
Rambling River Park
With the acquisition of this park being funded 30 years ago by a Land and Water Conservation grant, it has
become one of the two most heavily used parks in the City. It is for that reason that park maintenance staff
spend extra time making sure it is kept in good condition. In 2006 split rail fence located along the Pine
Street parking lot was removed and replaced with some large boulders that were donated by a local
contractor. This area had become very tired looking and the installation of the large boulders had given this
area a refreshed look. Old deck boards on the three pedestrian bridges spanning the Vermillion River were
becoming work and so were removed and replaced with new white oak deck boards. The existing sand
volleyball courts in the park were used extensively for an adult volleyball league that was run by the
I Recreation Division. A total of 36 league games were played in 2006. The
playground equipment was also heavily used given its adjacent location to a
picnic shelter. Staff did have to replace one broken swing during the year but
given the heavy use that occurs, the playground equipment continues to require
infrequent maintenance work to be performed by staff. The lighting and surface
of the two tennis courts have aged and both will need to be replaced in the near
future. While the weather failed to cooperate early in the season, staff
nonetheless were able to create outdoor ice on the two hockey rinks and one pleasure rink in the park
towards the middle of winter when the temperatures turned colder.
Rambling River Park Feely Fields
In 2006, the ball fields in Rambling River Park were renamed to Feely Fields in recognition of the Feely
family who sold the land to the City where the ball fields were built.
In recognition of the name change, a new sign was constructed by
staff and was unveiled during a dedication ceremony in June. In 2006
an existing split rail fence located along the Denmark A venue parking
lot was removed and replaced with some large boulders that were
donated by a local contractor. The split rail fence was beginning to
show its age and had become very tired looking. The installation of
the large boulders has given this area an enhanced look. Four new
waste containers were installed along the parking lot to facilitate more
cleanliness in the park. Staff also spent considerable time removing
sod and repairing the area of where the ag lime infield and outfield grass met because this area had become
built up over the year from all the dragging that has been done. As a result the infield edge has been
improved and is better defined with a much flatter area where the outfield and infield meet. Two tournaments
were held this past year. Over the course of the season that runs from April through October, 275 adult
slowpitch and fastpitch softball league games, 120 youth baseball games and 25 adult touch football games
were played. This doesn't leave much time for maintenance staff to perform turf management practices.
26
There was a narrow window of opportunity at the end of August and at the end of October that allowed staff
to perform the following turf improvements: core aerate, top dress, fertilize and eradicate broadleaf weed. In
addition, the ballfields are mowed twice a week and foul lines are painted every two weeks. Routine daily
maintenance of the ballfields includes: field dragging, weed whipping, garbage pick up and removal,
sweeping bench areas and chain link repair. Given the amount of work performed by our staff, it is even
more astonishing to know that staff did not field any complaints from the user groups on the condition of the
fields.
Kuchera's Entrance Park
New bridge decking boards were installed replacing boards that had been in place since the bridge was
installed more than 10 years ago. A new park sign was installed by staff. Flowers and shrubs were then
transplanted from other landscaped areas to the new entrance sign. Regular weekly maintenance of mowing
and trimming grass was completed throughout the growing season.
Hill Dee Park
The park was affected by the Hill Dee street reconstruction project that occurred during 2006. While not
impossible, maintenance of the park had its challenges during certain times of the reconstruction project. As
a result ofthe reconstruction project, a new sidewalk was constructed around the perimeter of the park, two
additional lights were installed in the park that were identified when the master plan for the park was created
and water was brought into the park so that a future water source for park users could be installed. Since
improvements in the park have been completed over the past two years, the park has seen a resurgence of
use. The full court basketball court has been particularly popular with youth and on many days there were
more than 20 youths showing up to play basketball.
Dakota Estates Park
A master plan for the park was created in 2006. As a result of the improvements identified in the master
plan, the existing sand volleyball court was removed and the sand was stockpiled and will be used in 2007 to
top dress the ball fields at Feely Fields. Vandalism was an issue with graffiti being painted on the playground
equipment and garbage being strewn throughout the park. One person was caught in the act of burning down
the playground equipment and was charged with a crime for this act. The person caught is now paying
restitution for the damage caused by the fire that was started.
Troyhills Park
The only improvement made to the park was that additional wood fiber was added under the playground
equipment to ensure that there was an adequate depth of fall material in place to safely protect users ifthey
fell while playing on the playground equipment.
Daisy Knoll Park
A master plan was created in 2006. In preparation of improvements to be completed in 2007, a tree was
removed from the park in the area of where a shelter will be constructed in 2007. This tree was then
transplanted to a different park location. 10 dogwood shrubs were transplanted from an existing City
landscaped area to the fenced area in the park around the water tower site. These shrubs had overgrown the
landscaped area where they were originally planted and staff saw an opportunity to reuse the shrubs as a way
to provide some screening of the fence.
27
Lake Julia Park
The existing floating dock was repaired in 2006. Staff spent time removing the dock and re-welding the
support railings and also replacing some of the floats that were damaged when the water level dropped to the
point where the dock was no longer supported by the water. Flowers and shrubs were transplanted from
other City landscape areas to the area around the park entrance sign that was installed in 2005. Vandalism
was an issue for this park as well. Common vandalism included broken glass bottles, damage to the
playground equipment and painting of graffiti.
Autumn Glen Natural Area
New dog waste containers were installed that provided access to plastic bags and a disposal container for
people who exercise their dogs in this area. This has been such a success that it has almost completely
cleared up the problem of having dog waste being left along the trails in this area. Of all the things that were
completed for park improvements, this seems to have had one of the most significant affects on improving
the appearance and usability of this park area. As a result of this success, staff plan on installing additional
dog waste containers along the trails in the Prairie Waterway and Rambling River Park to try and clean up
the problem that exists in these areas where dogs are also exercised.
Westview Park
The only improvement made to the park was that additional wood fiber was added under the playground
equipment to ensure that there was an adequate depth of fall material in place to safely protect users if they
fell while playing on the playground equipment. An issue surfaced with wasps taking up residence in the
sand volleyball court. It took a while but staff was able to remove the wasps from the court. A master plan
was developed for this park in 2006 with improvements planned in 2007.
.Qm>ot Way Arts Park
Many improvements were completed in this linear park located along the railroad right of way between Elm
Street and Spruce Street. Decorative fencing was installed by staff along the Elm Street boundary on the
north side of the park. Staff members installed 3 new park signs to better identify
other entrances to the park. Staff worked with Dakota Valley Arts Council members
to install 6 new picture holders that are double faced. As a result, 12 new hand
painted pictures were created by students and installed in the park. 5 new light poles
were installed from Oak Street south to the Spruce Street entrance on the south end
of the park. A new irrigation system was installed from the Spruce Street entrance
all the way to the Elm Street entrance to the north. The irrigation will help with the
watering of the landscaped areas and to also provide needed irrigation for the turf areas. Two new waste
containers were installed along the path in the park. Staff members removed some of the older over grown
shrubs that created more sight lines into the park. Some of the pine trees and hedges were trimmed up by
staff again helping to increase the visibility into the park. The trimming and removal of certain vegetation
was necessitated because of a vandalism problem that has continued to get worse in the park. Some of the
art pieces that were installed were heavily vandalized and had to be removed and will hopefully be replaced
by the Dakota Valley Arts Council. Additionally a park bench that cost $1,200 park bench was put on the
railroad tracks and then was hit by a train breaking it into many pieces that ended up being spread out for
several city blocks. It appears that the vandalism is primarily occurring after school and after sunset.
Department staff will be working with the Police Department and hopefully with other community residents
to eliminate this vandalism problem in Depot Way Arts Park.
28
Evergreen Knoll Park
Implementation of the master plan that was developed in 2005 occurred in 2006. The existing playground
equipment that was old and was starting to rot was replaced with new equipment. Two separate playground
equipment structures were installed one for 2-5 year olds and one for 5-12 year old. A new swing set was
also installed. The playground equipment is quite impressive and is sure to deliver many memories for those
that play on it. A new park entrance sign was installed. An 8 foot bituminous path was looped around part of
the park providing a connected pathway to the park and to the outdoor pool for people who use the parking
lot. A new 40 foot by 40 foot shelter was installed that will provide a second shelter for the public to use for
family events and gatherings. With the help of Excel Energy, 2 security lights were installed on existing light
poles at no cost. A new full size paved basketball court was constructed inside the new looped trail. The old
warming house was moved to behind the pool pump house and will be used for storing pool supplies.
Several poles that were previously used to light a skating rink were removed. The skating rink no longer
exists and in this area, two new sand volleyball courts will be constructed in 2007. The old half court
basketball court was also removed and the concrete removed was hauled to a recycling site so that the
concrete could be ground up and reused.
Prairieview Park
4 park benches were placed around the perimeter of the playground equipment. Concrete slabs were poured
by staff and three new waste containers were installed on these pads. A new bike rack was installed on a
concrete slab that was poured by staff. A cement slab was poured for portable toilet surround that had been
built by staff members. Staff continued to invest time in working on improving the turf areas in this park.
Due to poor soil conditions, it has been a challenge but staff members are making progress on improving the
turf areas in the park.
Prairie Waterway Natural Area
Staff spent time anchoring the picnic tables down in the shelter as there have been problems with the picnic
tables being thrown in the pond adjacent to the shelter. A new concrete pad was poured and a new waste
container was installed on the concrete pad. Considerable time was invested by seasonal staff to maintain
the turf area around the shelter by removing the weeds that normally grow there.
Tamarack Park
This park was over seeded and fertilized in order to provide assistance with getting the grass to fill in open
areas. Some vandalism occurred as graffiti was painted on some of the structures but staff was able to
remove fairly easily. An attempt was made to introduce a new pleasure skating rink in 2006 so that the east
side ofthe community had ice to skate on. Due to the warm weather conditions and the fact that a resident
tried to remove snow off of the rink with their own plow it was difficult to maintain and kind of consistently
good surface to skate on.
29
Silver Springs Park
Final improvements were completed that had been identified in the master plan created in 2005. A new
single pole shelter was constructed. Several new picnic tables were anchored
to the concrete under the shelter providing a place for people to sit in the shade.
A new waste container was installed. A drainage issue was fixed by adjusting
the height of the trail. The sloped area of the park was seeded with native
plants and wildlife so as to reduce erosion while providing an area that doesn't
need any mowing. Ten new trees and 35 new shrubs were planted in the park
as part of the annual Arbor Day celebration. A fourth grade and fifth grade
class joined Mayor Soderberg and staff for the celebration and assisted with the
planting ofthe trees and shrubs. Additional rock was added to the landscaped area adjacent to the
neighboring property. Since this park has been built, it has been heavily used by neighborhood families.
Vermillion Grove Park
A new single pole shelter was constructed. Picnic tables were installed and anchored to the concrete slab
under the picnic shelter. New waste containers were installed next to the shelter and the playground
equipment. A new bike rake was installed by staff. An adopt a park sign was placed in the park. , bench,
picnic tables anchored, grading around shelter then Hydro seeding. We had some home owner very
concerned about how it was going to look, if you get back their it looks like it grew back in that spot, very
natural, we do have some wanna be construction workers back in the woods but they will grow up sooner or
later, and we will keep removing the forts, I wish the parents would have to remove some of their fort they
might see which field of work to guide their kids into. Maybe carpentry maybe not.
Meadowview Park
Additional trails were added to the park. One section of trail was constructed along and below Pilot Knob
Road that connected the park to the existing 200th Street West trail. Another trail was constructed from a
parking lot down to the playground equipment. The final connection was to construct a trail along Pilot
Knob to an existing trail on the south side of 195th Street. Work was completed on seeding native plants and
wildflowers along the steep slopes and drainage swales in the park. Prairie Restoration was contracted to
perform this work. The work included Prairie Restoration completing a controlled burn prior to the seeding
of native plants and wildflowers.
Meadow Creek Third Addition Park Area
Many improvements were made in to this park. The landscape changed from
black dirt to a completed park in one summer season. Grass and trees were
planted including 12 trees that came from one of the city entry sign locations,
and sod salvaged from Evergreen Knoll park basketball court area. Two play
structures were installed (2-5 & 5-12 years old) with wood fiber ground cover
being added for safety surfacing and a surmountable concrete curb was
constructed around the entire playground site. A sand volleyball court was constructed after soil was
excavated and replaced with sand. Two poles were installed to complete the sand volleyball court. A full
court basketball court was constructed consisting of a paved surface and included the installation of two
poles with backboards, rims and nets to complete the basketball court. An accessible trail leading to the
playground equipment and picnic shelter was installed. A 28 foot diameter hexagon shelter with a concrete
floating slab was constructed in the fall.
30
Middle Creek Park
Areas of the park where the grass had grown taller were mowed by staff. A new concrete pad and waste
container were installed to help facilitate improved cleanliness of the park.
Picnic Shelter Reservations
Five City parks contain picnic shelters that are available to the public to
reserve from May to October. The following table shows the location of
the shelters, the number of reservations made and the amount of revenue

SUBJECT: First Amendment to Development Agreement for Water Looping Alternate; Approve
Plat Approval/Filing Extension-Farmington Area High School
DATE: March 19,2007
INTRODUCTION
Submitted herewith for Council's consideration are two requests from Independent School District
192 regarding construction of the new high school.
DISCUSSION
The first item reflects a possible reconsideration of the earlier decision to not loop the water line
serving the new high school by providing that the plans and specifications and related bid documents
will be amended to provide for a project alternate to loop the water serving the school site.
The water main alternative identified in the feasibility report includes routing water main north of the
New High School on Flagstaff Avenue and completing a loop with the existing trunk water main on
19Sth Street across from Meadowview Elementary School. The Water Board has previously agreed
to fund one-half of the additional costs to complete the water main loop up to 195th Street if the
School District is willing to fund the remainder.
By bidding the two alternates, the District will be in a position after bid opening to determine whether
the additional cost of looping the water line is warranted.
The second item is a request for an additional 60 day extension to the six month plat filing
requirement in the City Code, as more fully explained in the attached letter from the District.
BUDGET IMPACT
The costs associated with both requests are the responsibility of the District, although if the looping
alternative is selected by the District there would be a cost to the Water Board's funds.

Re: Flagstaff Public Improvements/Trunk Water System Looping Proposal
Dear Peter:
As you know, the Farmington School District has for budgetary reasons so far taken the position
that it does not intend to loop the trunk water system in connection with the pending Flagstaff
high school project. It was for this reason that the January 16, 2007 Development Contract for
this project identified only the "Water Main Base" option, as defined in the November 2006
Report for Flagstaff Avenue Utility & Street Improvements (the "Draft Feasibility Report").
On further reflection, however, the District now believes that it may be prudent to pursue a dual
track approach regarding the trunk water system, allowing for continued consideration of both
the "Water Main Base" option and the "Water Main Alternate" looping option (as defined in the
Draft Feasibility Report). This approach would enable the District to continue to consider a
looping of the water main until the last possible moment. Moreover, the District tentatively
proposes to contribute up to one-half of that portion of the cost of the "Water Main Alternate"
option that exceeds the cost of "Water Main Base" option. As estimated in the Draft Feasibility
Report, the excess cost between these two options would equal approximately $990,360,
recognizing of course that final feasibility report estimates and actual bid costs could come in
materially higher. In any event, and with the preceding caveats, this would reflect a possible
contribution by the District of up to an additional $495,180, with the City picking up the balance
of the costs.
In connection with the foregoing, we tentatively propose an amendment to the Development
Contract that includes the "Water Main Alternate" as an option to be exercised by the District
should it choose in its discretion to incorporate it into the project. This approach would
additionally contemplate the inclusion of the "Water Main Alternate" option as a bid alternate in

would need to be in the discretion of the District as we continue to evaluate budgetary
considerations on our end, and would additionally be subject to an agreement at that time
between the District and the City regarding a [mal allocation of associated costs between the two
parties. I believe this proposal would establish a process for delaying a final decision on water
main looping as long as possible, thereby increasing the potential for a favorable decision on that
front for the benefit of both the District and the City.
At your earliest opportunity, I would appreciate your thoughts regarding the above proposal. Ifin
fact this is a viable strategy from the perspective of the City I suggest that we proceed
immediately to prepare, for review by the City, an amendment to the Development Contract to
reflect this approach. Naturally, I would be interested in any comments that you may offer on
this subject, and encourage you to contact me at your earliest convenience.

Re: New Farmington High School-- Request for Plat Approval Extension
Our File No. 17461.000104
Dear Ms. Smick:
As you know, our office serves as legal counsel to Farmington Public Schools (the
"District") in connection with this matter. The purpose of this letter is to formally request an
extension of time within which to record the final plat with the Dakota County Recorder
pursuant to Farmington City Code ~ 11-2-3(E) and that Development Contract, dated January 16,
2007 (the "Development Contract"), by and between the District and the City of Farmington (the
"City").
On August 21, 2006, the City Council approved the preliminary and final plat for the
District's new high school site located on Flagstaff Avenue, Farmington. Subsequently, and
while steps were implemented to finalize the plat for recording, unanticipated delays were
encountered due to on-site utility modifications that necessitated changes to easements to be
designated in the plat. The timing problem was further exacerbated by delays encountered during
the Dakota County Surveyor's plat review process, ultimately resulting in a failure to achieve
timely recording of the plat within the six-month deadline established under the City Code and
Development Contract.
The District's surveyor is continuing to work closely with the City's engineering staff for
the purpose of updating easements and otherwise finalizing the plat for recording. The District
therefore requests an extension of 60 days, through and including April 21, 2007, within which
the final plat must be recorded. It would be the District's intent to finalize and record the plat
well in advance of this extended deadline. We would very much appreciate it if you would
proceed to process this extension request at the City Council's March 19, 2006 Council Meeting.

SUBJECT: Hunter Lift Station - Feasibility Report
DATE: March 19,2007
INTRODUCTION
Forwarded herewith for Council's consideration is the feasibility report for the Hunter Lift Station
Project.
DISCUSSION
The City Council has requested this report to determine the feasibility of improvements addressing
the issues regarding the Hunter Lift Station and correlated sewer service area. The improvements
would serve the property owners in the general area west of T.H. 3, north of Ash Street, east of 6th
Street and south of Walnut Street. Figure 1 in the report depicts the general project location.
The improvements discussed in this report include alternatives to replace the existing steel can type
lift station with a new sanitary gravity system or a new pre-cast manhole duplex submersible lift
station and valve vault.
The first alternative evaluated would eliminate the use of a lift station entirely and install a new
gravity sanitary sewer in this area and divert the system to discharge into the gravity sewer system
located to the south on Ash Street. The other option considered is to replace the existing lift station
with a new duplex submersible lift station.
At this time, staff recommends to replace the lift station and delay the installation of the gravity
system. Installation of the gravity system would involve a full street reconstruction along 7th Street in
an area where the street is in relatively good condition. The cost to accomplish the gravity system is
estimated to be more than double than replacing the existing lift station with a new lift station. It
would also be problematic to apply the City's assessment policies on a project with an existing street
that is in relatively good condition since it would be difficult to show benefit. It is recommended that
the gravity system be installed at the time ih Street is reconstructed in the future.

BUDGET IMPACT
The estimated project cost of replacing the lift station is $503,000. The project costs would be
funded out of the Sanitary Sewer Fund. The estimated project cost does not include costs for
easement acquisition.

Introduction
The City Council has requested this report to determine the feasibility of improving the Hunter Lift Station and
Sanitary Sewer System. The improvements will continue to serve the property owners in the general area west of
lH. 3, north of Ash Street, east of 6th Street and south of Walnut Street. Figure 1 depicts the general project
location.
The improvements discussed in this report include alternatives to replace the existing steel can type lift station with a
new sanitary gravity system or a new pre-cast manhole duplex submersible lift station and valve vault.
Discussion
Background
The Hunter Lift Station and Sanitary Sewer System were constructed back in the late 1950s. The Hunter Lift Station
is a buried steel can type lift station that houses two centrifugal pumps. The steel structure has deteriorated to a
point where ground water is leaking into the station. The pumps and controls and related equipment have run well
past their normal useful life which is around 20 years and also require replacement. Therefore, the entire station
needs to be replaced. From a maintenance standpoint, this type of station is a confined space and requires confined
entry access procedures to work on the pumps or the controls which is a safety concern.
Two alternatives to eliminating the existing lift station were evaluated for improving this sanitary system. One
alternative is to eliminate the use of a lift station entirely and install a new gravity sanitary sewer in this area and
divert the system to discharge into the gravity sewer system located to the south on Ash Street. The other option
that is considered for this study is to replace the existing lift station with a new duplex submersible lift station. These
alternatives considered for this evaluation are discussed below.
Alternatives
Sanitary Sewer Replacement Alternative
This alternative consists of installing new sanitary sewers within the service area that would redirect sewer flows
from the existing lift station to the south along Jlh Street to a 10" stub from Ash Street. The new sanitary sewer
would be constructed on Jlh Street, starting at the 10" stub off of Ash Street, and running approximately 1100 feet
north. Sewer laterals would have to be installed on Beech Street, starting from the intersection of Jlh Street, west to
the alley and then north to the existing lift station. Laterals would also have to be constructed on Beech Street and
Hickory Street, east of 7th Street, to service homes between Jlh and 8th Street. Refer to Figure 2 for the proposed
gravity sewer routing.
The installation of a new sanitary sewer system will require additional work besides just installing sewer. The water
main on Jlh Street and Beech Street (east of Jlh Street) would likely be lost in the trench and due to its age the water
main would need replacement. With the replacement of both the water main and the sanitary sewer, the
replacement of the entire street section including the curb and gutter will be required. Since a new street section will
be required along Jlh Street, new storm sewer would also need to be added at this time, The storm sewer would
Hunter Lift Station Rep/acement

ultimately tie into the Henderson storm sewer system on Hickory Street which is currently under evaluation. The
Henderson drainage system would pick up drainage from Hickory and 8th Street and route it east to the Prairie
Waterway. Refer to Figure 2 for all of the sanitary, storm, water main and street improvements.
The total estimated construction cost for this alternative is approximately $1,077,000. (A breakdown is shown in
the Cost Estimate portion of this report.)
lift Station Replacement Alternative
The other alternative for improving this system is to build a new lift station adjacent to the existing lift station. The
new station would have to be sunk as a caisson due to site constraints. The structure would be a precast manhole
structure that would contain two submersible pumps. This type of station will not require entering the structure to
perform maintenance on the pumps since the station is designed so the pumps can be pulled out of the station from
above. The wet well manhole will be increased in size to a 7 foot diameter structure to improve the capacity of the
station and provide a more desirable pump cycle timing.
The controls for the new station would be set above grade next to the station. This will allow more convenient and
safer access to the controls. In order to maintain and protect the lift station valve system, a new valve vault will be
constructed next to the new lift station as well. This valve vault will contain the check valves and plug valves that
are used to isolate the pumps from the forcemain.
This alternative may require the local electrical utility to relocate some of the overhead power that is located around
the lift station site for safety of construction and installation of the new structures. At a minimum, the overhead
power will need to be temporarily relocated or turned off.
Refer to Figure 3 for a proposed site plan of the new facilities for this alternative. The total estimated construction
cost for this alternative is approximately $503,000. (A breakdown is shown in the Cost Estimate portion of this
report. )
Easements and Permits
1. Water main construction will require a permit from the MN Department of Health if the sewer replacement
alternative is chosen,
2. Replacing the existing sewer pipes and the lift station will require a MN Pollution Control Agency (MPCA)
permit.
3. An NPDES construction permit from the MPCA will be required for the project if the sewer replacement
alternative is chosen.
4. Easements will need to be obtained around the existing lift station site due to the lack of area available to
construct the new facility. It is anticipated that a minimum of 10' by 20' will be required north of the
station.

Cost Estimates
The project costs are presented below for the two alternatives. The cost estimates are based on estimated 2007
construction costs and includes 10% for contingencies and 27% for engineering, legal and administration. The
estimated project cost does not include costs for easement or right"of"way acquisition.

Conclusions and Recommendations
From a cost standpoint alone, we recommend the installation of a new lift station as proposed in this evaluation.
The gravity sanitary sewer line could be installed in the future, when it is determined that ]lh Street needs to be
reconstructed. This proposed improvement is feasible and cost-effective as it relates to general engineering
principles and construction procedures. The feasibility of this project as a whole is subject to a financial review. The
proposed improvement is necessary to improve public infrastructure to City standards. Based on information
contained in this report, it is recommended that:
1. This report be adopted as the guide for replacing the existing lift station with a new lift station;
2. The City conduct a legal and fiscal review of the proposed project;
3. The new duplex submersible lift station be constructed as outlined in this report;
4. The following tentative schedule be implemented for the project:
