MOTION by Wilson, second by May to approve the agenda. Council member Wilson requested
allowing any residents that arrive to speak at 7:30 p,m. MOTION CARRIED,
General Ene:ineerine: Discussion
There are currently three employees in the Engineering Department - a City Engineer, a Civil
Engineer, and an Engineering Technician, A discussion followed regarding the education and
testing required for these positions and the duties they perform, Also covered was how resident
issues are handled, agency reporting, and utility permits,
Councilmember May asked if any of the items requiring consultant services could be done by
City staff with more time and experience, City Engineer Schorzman stated when we hire a
consultant, that is what they do everyday. Staff would not get to the same level as a consultant
because of the variety of duties that have to be done. That level of expertise is not needed on a
daily basis, The biggest benefit with Bonestroo is the knowledge, experience and history with
the City, Councilmember May felt it was good practice to go through the RFP process at regular
intervals, It is good practice and it creates a level of transparency. Staff cautioned you may find
a cheaper rate, but without the history you may have to pay more for the project work,
The next discussion covered project cost breakdown, The design of a project is approximately
6% of a project. Too much time is spent on the 6% instead of focusing on the larger area, We
need to focus on the larger area to save money as there are more pieces that affect the cost of the
project. Mayor Larson agreed, but stated we do not always need the top of the line, We can save
money by not over-designing projects. Staff noted as a way to save money for the Walnut Street
proj ect they are proposing to make the contractor responsible for maintaining the seed bed in a
moist condition for 45 days rather than using sod. Putting seed in the ground and not watering it,
is not completing the project.
Consultine: Ene:ineerine: Services
City Engineer Schorzman felt it was important to distinguish between commodities and
professional services. Treating them the same, you end up losing in the long run. Professional
services should be long term because it takes time to build the knowledge and relationships when
you change, Mayor Larson felt everyone knew we would need to use a consulting firm.

Councilmember May asked what someone does that is on a retainer, If there is not a big project,
they work on daily items just as any other employee, We have someone on a retainer for the
additional help and to keep from hiring a fulltime person. Councilmember Wilson asked if it
takes four full time people to get things done, Staff confirmed we do need at least four people,
When someone works on a retainer, they cover general engineering duties and the cost comes out
of the general fund, If that person works on a specific project, it is charged to that fund, Any
consultant that we have working here, we want them to stay in business, If they lose money
here, no engineering firm will stay here. With going out for RFP, there is the potential they will
low ball the cost to get in the door.
Councilmember Wilson was concerned about the amount of contractors in the field working on a
project. City Engineer Schorzman replied it is possible there have been four people at a project
at the same time, Last year he had more City employees out in the field to gain knowledge from
the consultant. He firmly believes in having eyes on a project. City Administrator Herlofsky
stated if we change engineering firms, we would need another fulltime employee, With having a
City Engineer as a City employee we have changed how consultants are managed, There was a
period of time where Bonestroo knew more about the City than City staff, That is beginning to
change, He recommended staying with Bonestroo, City Engineer Schorzman stated he cannot
be here for three years and know everything someone who has been here for 15 years knows.
The knowledge is intangible.
Mayor Larson wanted to continue to send projects out for bid, City Engineer Schorzman felt
other engineering firms could come in and do a reconstruction project following our
comprehensive plan, The other side is, do you wipe the slate clean and have someone new come
in and do everything or do you keep the people with the knowledge for the things you need the
knowledge for and shop around to get the best deals on things that make sense to do that. If we
don't have well thought out, long term plans, making a 1 % mistake in the 94% of the project has
the exact impact as taking 1 % out of it. Not all cities have a consultant on retainer, but they have
more City staff, Those cities still use consultants on big projects, Councilmember May agreed
for now we do need someone on a retainer, but to eventually work away from that, City
Engineer Schorzman stated long term there will be a point in the City where if we can maintain
staff here and learn about what we have and they stay, we may be able to migrate away from a
retainer, Council was under the impression that the cost of the retainer was the only cost to the
City, but there is also the amount charged to specific projects, Councilmember Donnelly asked
if it was cheaper to put someone on staff, City Engineer Schorzman stated it comes down to the
knowledge, The only way to learn about our infrastructure is to be here and see it.
Councilmember May felt we should still go out for RFP for a consultant periodically, City
Engineer Schorzman stated if we do that, it would be wise to enter into a 5-10 year contract so
you can get the knowledge transferred and use it. We do not have the time to train engineers
annually,
Mayor Larson asked what we can do differently to save money, City Engineer Schorzman stated
the City could go out for RFP on bigger projects, It is in the City's best interest when comparing
rates and knowledge, to keep the retainer for at least two more years and continue to use
Bonestroo for long term planning, Once you have gone down a path, you need to maintain that

path. Mayor Larson agreed we have seen a savings by going out for bid on projects. He also felt
it was important to not over-design projects and wanted staffto make sure that does not happen,
Councilmember May felt eventually it would be nice to not have an engineer on retainer, She
agreed with keeping the current situation for two years and then go out for RFP or hire someone,
She asked if there is a Bonestroo contract in place that needs to be reviewed and are we still on
the same numbers as 2008 because they did not increase in 2009, City Engineer Schorzman
stated Bonestroo has requested an increase to the dollar amount of the retainer, In 2008 we
assumed 10 hours of work would be done per week for the retainer, That has turned out to be 12
hours per week that they have not been getting compensated for,
Councilmember Wilson was comfortable with the two years and then look at an RFP.
Councilmember May asked about the amount of the increase, It is $7,000/year based on a
history of actual activity, Councilmember May noted all the employees who did not receive an
increase and the public is going to hear increase; so why do that? Staff stated we can tell them
the retainer stays at $30,000 and it is then up to them. Councilmember May felt there was
sensitivity to the increase, Staff suggested doing a two year contract with Bonestroo and then re-
evaluate everything.
Development Fees
City Engineer Schorzman stated to calculate development fees, you start with a cost. The cost is
based on the comp plan and regulations in place at the time. The remaining storm sewer at
complete build out will cost the City $47 million in today's dollars. If the regulations change,
the cost will change, There are many regulations that need to be addressed that are regulated by
different agencies. The $47 million is based on staffs assessment of where we are now and what
it would cost to build it out today. A discussion followed on how to calculate the fee and what it
included, Councilmember Wilson was concerned about the lack of competitiveness in
development with fee increases, Staff stated they are working under the assumption that to
develop in this community to full build out you have this cost. How you chose to make it
palatable for developers is a policy decision. Up until now Council direction has been
development pays for itself, Councilmember May asked why the fees were so out of line and
why the need for the big increase? City Engineer Schorzman stated the biggest difference
between ten years and now is the increase in regulations and the change to our system that was
required. We are in a unique situation; the Vermillion River drives everything here.
Councilmember Wilson suggested reaching out for grant money and explore partnerships and at
the same time increase fees and revisit the issue in mid-20 10, Staff stated we have received
money from various organizations for projects such as the North Creek re-meandering,
Councilmember Donnelly stated when a developer develops property; they put in their own
streets, water, sewer, etc, He asked what the $47 million pays for. City Engineer Schorzman
stated the City acts like a bank, When development comes in that cannot build what they need
because of limitations to size, etc" staff collects these fees, Then when development happens
where the infrastructure needs to go, the developer builds it for their development, but it also
needs to take care of these people who did not take care of themselves before, For doing that, we
take the money the first developer gave us and credit it toward the second development. City

Administrator Herlofsky felt having developers pay for their own development is the right
policy.
Councilmember Donnelly asked if this was a large enough increase that even though they may
own the land, they cannot afford to pay the fees and will not develop it. A discussion followed
about land in surrounding areas, Councilmember Wilson asked if some areas of the City are
more expensive than others, Staff stated the area east ofTH3 would be more expensive because
of its proximity to the river. Councilmember May asked if it was wrong to think the other way;
that we all pay a piece of development because it would bring more growth and more tax base,
Isn't it a benefit to have more taxpayers and then get more business? With these increases we
are saying we will not grow in the immediate future, Councilmember Wilson stated that would
mean adding to the utility bill, Councilmember May stated if we get more people, then we get
more business. Staff stated that is an option presented on the spreadsheet; to add to the storm
water utility fee, Councilmember May felt we need to do what we can to be competitive,
Councilmember Donnelly would like to see other fees and how competitive we are. City
Engineer Schorzman stated last year he compared our development fees plus our utility rates
with other cities, The way Lakeville is set up, you would never break even; it will always be
cheaper in Lakeville. With Rosemount we had higher development fees, but the utility rates
were lower and some of the turnaround was between 20-30 years before it would be cheaper to
be in Farmington because of our utility rates, He suggested Council not just focus on
development fees, It may be more of a sales issue than a policy issue, City Engineer Schorzman
will discuss development fees with developers who do not plan on building here so they do not
have a vested interest in the outcome,

3. City Infrastructure/CIP Discussion
o Methods for determining the value of the City's infrastructure:
· Present Value- Useful when buying, selling or trading
· Replacement Value- Necessary when planning cash-flow
o Current replacement value of the existing City infrastructure:
· Streets- $87 million
· Sanitary Sewer- $49 million

· Storm Water- Concrete Pipe 100 years, other types 50 years
o How do we plan so we meet the needs of the City over the next 100 years?
· lO-year CIP
. Once the CIP is approved it must be followed or it is
useless as a planning tool
· New technologies
. Keep current on new technologies that can be incorporated
to reduce initial costs as well as future maintenance costs
· Maintenance of existing infrastructure
. Continue with 7-year programs to seal coat roads and
televise sewers
· Stay away from "deferred maintenance"
. Deferred Maintenance (as defined by the Federal Financial
Accounting Standard 6, U.S. Federal Accounting Standards
Advisory Board) - "Deferred maintenance" is maintenance
that was not performed when it should have been or was
scheduled to be and which, therefore, is put off or delayed
for a future period For purposes of this standard,
maintenance is described as the act of keeping flXed assets
in acceptable condition, It includes preventive
maintenance, normal repairs, replacement of parts and
structural components, and other activities needed to
preserve the asset so that it continues to provide acceptable
services and achieves its expected life. Maintenance
excludes activities aimed at expanding the capacity of an
asset or otherwise upgrading it to serve needs different
from, or significantly greater than, those originally
intended
. Results of "deferred maintenance":
o Increased safety hazards
o Poor service for the public
o Higher future costs
o Inefficient operations
o How do we pay for the future needs?
· Continue to bond as projects come up (constant or increasing debt
service)
· Dedicate funding from the levy on an annual basis (decreased
services or increased taxes)
· Combination of bonding and dedicated funding
o Council direction on how to move forward
Ui
4. Development Fees
o How do we calculate development fees?
· Cost to construct systems to those necessary when the City is fully
developed, divided by the number of undeveloped acres remaining
in the City
o Philosophies for development:
· Development pays for itself- The current philosophy of the City
· Development is subsidized by others- This would be a change from
the current philosophy
o Outcome of a change in philosophy:
· Initial costs to developers are reduced
· Taxes or fees on current residentslbusiness owners are increased to
cover the difference between the actual cost of development and
the portion paid by the developer
o Examples of options that will reduce the developers cost
o Council direction on how to move forward
5. Annual Seal Coat Project Funding
o Current policy:
· 50% assessed-50% paid from money set-aside many years ago in
the Road and Bridge fund.
o Issue:
· Money set aside is running out.
o Options going forward:
· Continue current policy and increase taxes to cover the other 50%
· Assess 100% if we can show benefit
· Discontinue assessments and fund other ways
o Other ways to fund the seal coat proj ect:
· Franchise Fees- Impose franchise fees on gas and electric that will
cover the annual cost of the project (would include non-taxable
properties)
· Increase tax levy and create a fund for the proj ect (would not
include non-taxable properties)
o Advantages of not assessing the annual seal coat project:
· Reduced cost- Eliminates costs associated with assessing
· Eliminates year-to-year fluctuation in costs paid by residents
· Allows cost saving options (using reclaimed rock) to be shared
with all residents
o Council direction on how to move forward

SUBJECT: Information for the January 11th Engineering Workshop
DATE: January 7,2010
Enclosed is information pertaining to the Development Jfces agenda item for your review.
The large sheet shows options for the surface water management fee.. ne information at the top
of the page shows the fees charged in 2008, as well as the same fees adjusted for the change in
the way the acreage is calculated. For example, the $7177 facre charge for low density is the
same as $6351facre charged in 2008 beCause the fee is ,applied to a smaller acreage in tIie
development when parkland and steep slopes are removed.' The remainder of the sheet includes
other options for the fee.
The smaller sheet is just an estimate of what the fee would be in each of the next 5 years b8$ed
on the different options.
Both items, as well as additional information, will be discussed further, during the workshop.
RespectfuJ.ly Submitted,
