CITY COUNCIL ROUNDTABLE Councilmember Lien is very appreciative of the excellent surgeons he had at Mayo Clinic and is happy to be back. It’s Christmastime, and he hopes everyone enjoys the season, the lights, and all the activities coming up in the next few weeks. Councilmember Bernatz thanked the Public Works Team for their hard work handling two snow events over the holiday weekend. These are things we just take for granted, that within a reasonable amount of time, our roads are going to be cleared again and we’re going to get in and out of our driveways and, within a certain amount of time, travel is going to be safe. But that means there are people that took time away from their families on a holiday weekend to be able to provide those services. A job well done, and I am personally grateful for the kind of group of individuals that we have working here. Thank you for that. Councilmember Cordes mentioned that there are several Christmas and holiday events this weekend, including the Lighted Holiday Parade at 7 pm Saturday, December 6th, followed by the Rotary Holiday Tree lighting ceremony at the lot next to Homestead Community Church. Thank you to the Rotary, the City of Farmington, and Homestead Community Church for the work they put into the events this weekend. City Administrator Gorski made a request to all the parents out there, please make sure your children stay behind the barricades during the parade because it can be a very dangerous situation at night when people are driving vehicles. Also, thank you to Council for all your kind words provided during the budget presentation. Kim, you did a phenomenal job explaining in detail what we did this year – thank you. Also, thanks to the whole Team. It’s not easy to go through all the needs of the City and we know we can’t do it all in one day. Page 15 of 403 Regular City Council Meeting Minutes of December 1, 2025 Page 8 of 12 We take that responsibility very seriously, so thank you for your hard work, everyone. City Clerk Buecksler said I appreciate all our liquor establishments getting their paperwork and payments in on time, our Police Staff taking care of the background checks, and David for presenting it for me. Thank you. Assistant City Administrator Chanski thanked the Council for their support and adopting this budget. For the public’s insight, one of my roles when it comes to budget is, obviously, the personnel-related pieces which is one of the biggest parts of the budget, especially when you saw nine positions being added for 2026. Those are a lot of positions, and it’s been a while since the City had that many additions in a year. When we look at personnel, we do take that very seriously. Some considerations we take in effect when we’re looking at when adding personnel is 1) are we being as efficient as possible with the resources that we have, and 2) also looking at whether there are services not being provided, are there projects not getting done that may have a negative effect on the community if they continue to go undone, what kind of unfunded mandates or mandates are being put on the City. In HR, we had two mandates in the last year with paid family leave, as well as no tax on overtime. We also look at whether there are areas of savings by adding Staff. For example, maybe reducing professional services or other things by adding a position. We also look at other ways to fund positions outside of the tax levy. For this year, one of those was through the SAFER (Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response) grant to try to help fund the six full-time Firefighters. I want to commend Chief Price and our grant writer, Kari Kubicek, on putting that SAFER grant together. This was a huge undertaking, and they spent weeks putting that together. Unfortunately, decision makers in Washington decided that other communities that already had full-time Firefighters were a little more deserving. Again, we still appreciate your support in moving forward with that needed addition, anyway. And I want to thank Kim for her hundreds of hours of work over the last eight plus months on this budget and her dedication to making the City’s finances more transparent and understandable. She did this also while leading the City’s most significant software conversion in almost the last 25 years, and that actually goes live tomorrow. Thank you, Kim. Public Works Director Powell said both he and all of Public Works appreciate the Council’s support from a budgeting standpoint. And from wanting to provide the best services possible for our residents, having the best facilities, and doing things when they need to be done, that all goes into the budget. We appreciate your moral support with the snow event. Despite the holiday weekend, we had a very good response. We only had maybe a handful of Farmington Fixes, such as yard damage and mailboxes, so it went very well for really the first big event of the season. Now that we have the salt shed, we will Page 16 of 403 Regular City Council Meeting Minutes of December 1, 2025 Page 9 of 12 be staging some salt in there, so you’ll see some trucks hauling from the Dakota County garage up to the salt shed so trucks can be ready to go. When we have an event coming, the trucks are pre-loaded. When the crew shows up, they hit the roads. Having it in the salt shed saves them from having to go down to Dakota County to load up. It may not be obvious, but if you’re driving a 5-ton truck that’s empty in a snowstorm on icy roads, that can get a little dicey and, as much as we can limit empty trucks going around and we can fill them at the salt shed instead of having to drive to fill up, that’s a big help. Thank you. Mayor Hoyt asked if we currently do not brine. Director Powell responded that, in the Capital Improvement Plan, we have ordered and just received about a month ago brine making equipment. Brine is one of the snow and ice methods that we really haven’t used in the past. It’s just salt water to a prescribed percentage concentration. We use that for two reasons – we can prewet the salt, so when it’s dropped on the roadway, it reduces the bounce and scatter. It stays on the pavement and doesn’t go off into the shoulder and into the ditches, from a water quality standpoint. And second, we can use it to anti-ice. We can have a truck with a tank and, essentially, spray the roads with the brine before an event starts. We can’t do it if it’s raining and changing because it just washes off, but if we anti-ice, it weakens the bond between the ice and the pavement. And when we plow and remove the snow and ice, it’s easier to scrape up. There are a multitude of uses for it, but those are the two primary uses we would have for brine. We will start producing, and our new trucks will have all the brine equipment. We’re looking forward to that. Parks and Recreation Director Omlid said tonight was the first day of the Holiday Lights Tour – it’s posted on the City’s website, as well as social media. If you were here before the meeting, Councilmember Bernatz said she had a hard time getting out of her driveway – she has a Toys for Town basket in her cul-de-sac, and they already emptied it twice. Saturday morning, we also have the Secret Holiday Shop from 9 am to Noon at the Rambling River Center. Stay downtown all day on Saturday – Homestead Church is having their Christmas carnival, the library is having an event in the afternoon, and then we will cap it off with the parade. As a reminder, December 8th from 6 to 8 pm at the Rambling River Center is the Skate Park Design Workshop. Spohn Ranch will be in town that day, and you can add your input on the skate park. In talking with them last week, they already had 44 people fill out the design survey and 11 were in progress, so we have already had really good engagement. The survey will be up for three more weeks, but please come to the design workshop next Monday. Finance Director Sommerland extended her appreciation to the Council for their leadership throughout the budget process and also to the collaboration of the entire management Team. Without that collaboration, we wouldn’t be Page 17 of 403 Regular City Council Meeting Minutes of December 1, 2025 Page 10 of 12 in the spot where we are – everybody came together and I appreciate that. As David alluded to, we are working through a new software conversion. Their team will be onsite tomorrow for three weeks. We will have a team of about six to nine people this week and then three to five for the following two weeks to get the system up and running and make sure everyone is trained in, so we’re looking forward to that. As part of that process, there are some interruptions with the online payment system. We have tried as much as possible to make sure residents are aware of those interruptions. We have information posted on our website and on the online payment portal. We will get that up and running as soon as we can, but I can’t give a date at this point. Fire Chief Price thanked the Council for all their support. It’s been about seven and a half months of making the full-time Staff happen. At the December 15th Council meeting, I will have the six individuals sitting here to show this historic event – 152 years and the first time having full-time staffing running 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Thank you for listening to all the data that I gave, talking about everything, and for your support throughout this whole entire thing. Thank you. Police Captain Van Dorn said Toys for Town is up and running but it will be coming to a close here pretty soon. We’re going to start picking up from the collection sites next Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. So, if you’re looking to donate, get that done within the next week. I believe we are at record levels, as Chief Siem said today, we have over 160 families that are signed up, representing somewhere north of 425 children. So, thank you to everyone who has contributed to that. The wrapping event is on December 13th at Farmington High School at 9 am. As many people that can come out, the more the merrier because there’s going to be a lot of work to do. Thank you. In regard to Toys for Town, Mayor Hoyt said, if you have not in years past ever been a part of it, it is one of the single greatest things that this community does. Even if you just show up and help pick gifts, you can help with that, you can help wrap, and you can help deliver, if you’d like. There are a lot of people who choose not to deliver to their fellow community members. As recipients, it creates a dynamic. There are always volunteers willing to deliver, but that is an area that we always seem to fall a little bit short on each year. Just the willingness of people wanting to deliver the gifts. If you have not been a part of it, please take an hour or two out of your day on Saturday. We usually start at 9 am and we’re pretty much wrapped up by Noon. Please take just a little bit of time – it is an absolutely life-changing event to be a part of.

The Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) is a strategic planning tool used to guide the timing and funding of these investments over multiple years. It supports the City's efforts to maintain existing infrastructure, anticipate future needs, and align capital priorities with community goals, service delivery standards. DISCUSSION: The City’s 2026–2030 Capital Improvement Plan outlines proposed capital projects intended to address both immediate and long-range infrastructure needs. These include but are not limited to the replacement of major equipment, park development, building improvements, and street reconstruction. It is important to emphasize that the CIP is a planning document, not a budget or commitment to fund or implement specific projects. The plan is intended to be flexible and is updated annually to reflect changing priorities, funding availability, and emerging needs. Each new CIP supersedes prior versions and represents the City's most current capital planning priorities. Acceptance of the CIP confirms the inclusion of 2026 projects in the adopted budget and establishes a framework for evaluating and refining projects in subsequent years. BUDGET IMPACT: The 2026 projects identified in the CIP have been incorporated into the 2026 budget adopted by the City Council. Should additional projects emerge or existing projects require adjustments during the fiscal year, the budget will be amended in subject to Council approval in accordance with policy. ACTION REQUESTED: Staff recommends that the City Council accept the 2026–2030 Capital Improvement Plan as a planning document to guide future capital investments.

Farmington, MN Project #AD-001 Project Name City Hall 2nd FLoor Updates Total Project Cost $175,000 Contact HR Director/Asst City Administrator Department Administration Type Renovation Category Facilities Description This project proposes targeted modifications to the 2nd floor of City Hall to improve space functionality, workflow efficiency, and life safety compliance. The scope includes reconfiguring office layouts and optimizing shared workspaces. This project is being proposed in tandem with addressing an identified egress issue on the 2nd floor to ensure compliance with current building and fire codes. This may involve reworking exit routes, upgrading door hardware, or modifying stairwell access. This project is being coordinated with the resolution of a known egress issue on the 2nd floor to ensure compliance with current building and fire codes. Justification While City Hall is a relatively modern facility, the City’s continued growth has led to evolving space needs that the current layout no longer fully supports. Staff expansion and departmental changes have created inefficiencies in the existing configuration. Additionally, resolving the known egress issue is a priority for occupant safety and code compliance. By combining both efforts into a single project, the City can achieve cost and operational efficiencies, reduce disruption, and ensure a cohesive, future-ready solution that supports both safety and functionality.

This chipper could be pulled behind a pickup truck and would be great for trail work. Justification Currently, Public Works and Parks and Recreation have to share a chipper. Both crews have trees needing to be removed and chipped at the same time. The tree pruning season is November through April and if Public Works is using the chipper Parks and Recreation can't. Parks and Recreation had to pile logs at Jim Bell Park and Preserve to chip at a later date. Staff secured a quote in December 2023 to rent a chipper. The price was $4,500 for a week and $9,000 for a month. It is not efficient to cut down trees and then have to come back at a later time to chip them. Mobilizing the crew twice to the same area and handing the trees twice takes away from other projects staff could be completing.

It provides powerful force to break through concrete, rock, and asphalt effortlessly. The Hydraulic Breaker can be used on the Skid-Steer and Toolcat. Justification Currently, neither Parks and Recreation or Public Works has a piece of equipment like this other than a hand-held breaker. As playground equipment in several parks are nearing time to be replaced, the Hydraulic Breaker is critical. Instead of throwing and stockpiling the footings at the Central Maintenance Faiclity, staff can break them up right away. It will also be used when concrete curbs for playground equipment and sidewalks need to be replaced. At some point, the entrance monuments will be replaced and this tool will be used to break them up. Parks and Recreation rented this tool to break up the asphalt tennis court at a cost of $1,736.50 for two weeks.

As the building approaches two decades of use, several critical maintenance needs have been identified to preserve the integrity, safety, and functionality of the facility. The 2026 scope of work includes: Replacement of roof pavers to address wear and prevent water infiltration. Replacement of worn carpet in the lobby, conference room hallways, and other high-traffic areas. Replacement of four variable frequency drives (VFDs) that regulate HVAC systems. Replacement of the facility’s water heater, which is nearing the end of its service life. Justification A comprehensive Facility Condition Assessment conducted by Kraus-Anderson in 2023 identified and prioritized deferred maintenance needs across all city facilities. The following items were flagged as high priority for 2026: Roof Pavers Replacement ($3,300): Existing pavers are deteriorating, posing a risk of leaks and structural damage if not addressed. Carpet Replacement ($16,632): The carpet in public-facing and high-use areas has become a safety hazard due to wear, fraying, and uneven surfaces, increasing the risk of trips and falls. VFD Replacement ($40,500): The four VFDs are essential for efficient HVAC operation. Their failure could lead to system inefficiencies, increased energy costs, and potential service disruptions. Water Heater Replacement ($14,850): The current unit is approaching the end of its useful life, and proactive replacement will prevent unexpected failure and service interruptions. These improvements are necessary to maintain a safe, efficient, and welcoming environment for staff and the public, and to protect the City’s investment in its facilities.

These tractors are essential for maintaining city parks year-round— used for dragging ballfields in the summer and snow removal in the winter. This project proposes replacing the first tractor in 2026 and the second in 2030. The 2026 replacement will include a larger John Deere model equipped with a snowblower and a 23-foot rear cradle boom cutting head. This new equipment will allow staff to reach and clear brush and trees in areas that are currently inaccessible, such as over fences and along trails. The purchase will also include a trade-in of the 2005 tractor to reduce overall cost. Justification By 2026, the first tractor will be over 20 years old and well beyond its expected service life. The second will reach 24 years of age by 2030. Both are showing signs of wear and are at increasing risk of mechanical failure. Replacing these tractors is essential to avoid disruptions in critical services like snow removal and field maintenance. The upgraded equipment will not only improve reliability but also expand the City’s ability to maintain parks more efficiently and safely. The extended boom arm on the new tractor will provide capabilities the City currently lacks, allowing staff to manage vegetation in hard-to-reach areas and improve the overall condition of public spaces.

In addition to storm water storage and treatment, the City has an extensive system of storm sewer pipes, driveway culverts, and ditches. All of these facilities need proactive maintenance to preserve their ability to properly function. Justification The City's storm water ponds and conveyance system needs to function properly in order to properly treat incoming runoff, and to protect adjacent properties. If excess sediment accumulates in a treatment pond, it loses its effectiveness. Continued investment is needed to help ensure the system is properly functioning. The City is required to continually adhere to the Vermillion River Watershed Joint Powrs Agreement and standards, and Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4) requirements. In addition to constructed storm water facilities, localized flooding can develop over time which requires corrective action to prevent property damage and preserve the livability of neighborhoods. Note that these expenditures would be in addition to storm sewer related expenses on street Improvement projects.

Since its initial finding, millions of ash trees have died and it has cost states, municipalities, nurseries, forest industries and property owners hundreds of millions of dollars. EAB attacks all species of ash trees (Fraxinus spp.) found in Minnesota, which include green ash, black ash, and white ash. Minnesota is home to more than 900 million ash trees. By late 2022, EAB had been confirmed in 38 Minnesota counties. The pest was confirmed in Farmington in 2019, but was very likely in the community before then. The city has transitioned from "generally infested" to "heavily infested" as the pest population is coming to a peak. IN early 2023, the City Council adopted an aggressive approach to EAB that keeps public safety as the focus, and includes extensive tree removal. Justification As ash trees become infested with EAB, they become safety hazards. These actions are required to address public ash trees within boulevard areas and in parks adjacent to paths and recreation areas.

When doing this work, sections of sanitary sewer are identified as needing lining, but not complete replacement. Justification Lining a sanitary sewer is s very efficient method of maintaining the system without incurring the cost of excavation, replacement, and restoration. To maintain proper flow and reduce infiltration and inflow, sanitary sewer that is found deficient during annual inspection is recommended to be lined.

The plan utilizes a pavement management program, and considers staff input, City utility needs, and budget constraints to prioritize projects. Flagstaff Avenue from CSAH 50 to the north city limit is a critical north-south roadway corridor in the city. In addition to Farmington High School traffic directly accessing Flagstaff Avenue on the west side, there has been extensive residential development near CSAH 50, and more development is expected along the corridor. Justification Most of the corridor consists of a two-lane rural (no curb and gutter) section with drainage conveyed via ditches. A study of expected future traffic demands, intersection controls, access management, the roadway cross-section, turing movements, etc. is necessary to guide future infrastructure investment. Certain streets within the city are designated as Municipal State Aid (MSA) routes. Roadway improvements along these routes are eligible for MSA Construction funding. A portion of Flagstaff Avenue, from 200th Street to 195th Street, is a Dakota County roadway; the county will have a proportional share of the study cost.

In February of 2020, a Water Storage Tank Siting Study was completed. Based on the projected demand of the Farmington water system, existing storage capacity, and typical water tank manufacturing, the study indicated 2.5 MG of additional storage be constructed. The city is in the process of updating the citywide comprehensive land use plan. Using new land use information available to date, the updated water system analysis indicates a similar size water storage tank is needed. If the location and intensity of development continues as projected, a larger ground storage reservoir will also be needed. Justification After considering the City's expected future growth, and current water storage capacity, recent studies of the City's water system recommended the City install up to a 2.5 MG of new water storage. The process of constructing new elevated water storage may take one-two years before the storage is brought online. This project includes construction of elevated water storage only, and does not include the extension of trunk water main to the storage site as the site has not yet been determined.

To efficiently move material within the storage area and load trucks, a new piece of equipment is needed. Justification During snow events, all of the public works equipment is utilized including the dump trucks, grader, skid steer, and front end loader. An additional piece of equipment is needed with the ability to reach high enough to load dump trucks yet small enough to maneuver within more confined spaces; a compact wheel loader. In addition to loading trucks, this loader would supplement snow removal efforts, and be used for moving materials within the storage facility in non-winter conditions.

Unlike standard roadways, alleys are significantly narrower—typically within a 20-foot easement—and often bordered by garages, fences, and other obstacles. Traditional road grading equipment is too large to maneuver effectively in these confined spaces. The grading blade attachment is specifically designed for compact equipment like skid steers, allowing for precise and efficient grading in tight areas. The attachment is expected to have a useful life of approximately 20 years. Justification City alleys require regular grading to maintain safe and accessible surfaces, especially after weather events or utility work. However, the narrow width and physical constraints of these areas make it difficult to use standard grading equipment without risking damage to adjacent properties or infrastructure. The addition of a grading blade attachment will significantly enhance the City’s ability to maintain alleys more effectively and with greater precision. This investment will improve service quality, reduce long-term maintenance costs, and minimize disruption to residents whose properties border these alleys.

In addition to storm water storage and treatment, the City has an extensive system of storm sewer pipes, driveway culverts, and ditches. All of these facilities need proactive maintenance to preserve their ability to properly function. Justification The City's storm water ponds and conveyance system needs to function properly in order to properly treat incoming runoff, and to protect adjacent properties. If excess sediment accumulates in a treatment pond, it loses its effectiveness. Continued investment is needed to help ensure the system is properly functioning. The City is required to continually adhere to the Vermillion River Watershed Joint Powrs Agreement and standards, and Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4) requirements. In addition to constructed storm water facilities, localized flooding can develop over time which requires corrective action to prevent property damage and preserve the livability of neighborhoods.

Since its initial finding, millions of ash trees have died and it has cost states, municipalities, nurseries, forest industries and property owners hundreds of millions of dollars. EAB attacks all species of ash trees (Fraxinus spp.) found in Minnesota, which include green ash, black ash, and white ash. Minnesota is home to more than 900 million ash trees. By late 2022, EAB had been confirmed in 38 Minnesota counties. The pest was confirmed in Farmington in 2019, but was very likely in the community before then. The city has transitioned from "generally infested" to "heavily infested" as the pest population is coming to a peak. IN early 2023, the City Council adopted an aggressive approach to EAB that keeps public safety as the focus, and includes extensive tree removal. Justification As ash trees become infested with EAB, they become safety hazards. These actions are required to address public ash trees within boulevard areas and in parks adjacent to paths and recreation areas.

The long-term planning of the Maintenance Facility campus included fueling facilities. A new fuel island is proposed with two dispensers (pumps) and dual tanks; one tank for diesel and one for unleaded; along with a canopy. Justification There are multiple reasons for the City to install a fueling facility on site. Dakota County has plans to relocate their salt storage and fuel facility from 4975 212th Street West in the next few years. An on site facility would reduce trips to fueling facilities off site, saving time and money, and increasing safety as trucks and equipment are not maneuvering among other customers at retail sites. Additionally, the city expects a cost savings in fuel by purchasing in bulk.

Justification As ash trees become infested with EAB, they become safety hazards. These actions are required to address public ash trees within boulevard areas and in parks adjacent to paths and recreation areas.

In addition to storm water storage and treatment, the City has an extensive system of storm sewer pipes, driveway culverts, and ditches. All of these facilities need proactive maintenance to preserve their ability to properly function. Justification The City's storm water ponds and conveyance system needs to function properly in order to properly treat incoming runoff, and to protect adjacent properties. If excess sediment accumulates in a treatment pond, it loses its effectiveness. Continued investment is needed to help ensure the system is properly functioning. The City is required to continually adhere to the Vermillion River Watershed Joint Powrs Agreement and standards, and Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Municipal Separate Storm Sewer Systems (MS4) requirements. In addition to constructed storm water facilities, localized flooding can develop over time which requires corrective action to prevent property damage and preserve the livability of neighborhoods.

The age range of meters varies widely, but much of the inventory is approaching the age where parts may become difficult to obtain and replacement should be considered. It is recommended that the city strongly consider a fixed base system (eliminating any need to drive around to read meters) to allow more frequent data collection and direct customer access to the data. The more data that we can provide via a customer portal, the better customers can monitor and manage their water use. The initial phase would involve review and analysis of replacement options, and cost estimating. Justification Accurate and timely meter reading is essential for the utility billing system and revenue generation. As meters wear out, older meters tend to fail "slow" meaning lost revenue for the City. Newer meters allow for the creation of customer portals which allows residents and businesses to monitor their water consumption. City water users can also set alerts for certain thresholds. This will be especially useful for those that share the city's desire for water conservation and those that are either on vacation or are out of town in the winter. Alerts notify customers of water consumption that would vary from their normal us, possibly indicating a leak or running fixture.

DISCUSSION: A summary of the General Fund, along with notable highlights from the other funds, is presented below. General Fund provides following The account. primary operating the is Fund General The City’s explanations of various revenue items and highlights significant expenditure variations. Revenue General Fund revenues totaled approximately $12.7 million, or 64% of the $19.8 million annual budget. This level of revenue collection is generally in line with expectations for this point in the year, considering the timing of property tax distributions and seasonal revenue patterns. Property tax collections reached $8.0 million, representing 52% of the budgeted amount. This reflects the first of two major installments received annually, with the second received in December. License revenue totaled $32,800, or 81% of the annual budget, and is tracking revenue, plumbing, building, including Permit the prior below slightly year. heating, electrical, and right-of-way permits, reached $838,000, already exceeding the annual budget of $803,000. While building permit activity is consistent with last year, the increase is largely driven by a significant rise in plumbing and heating permits, which totaled $158,000 through the third quarter compared to $59,000 during the same period in 2024. Intergovernmental revenue, which includes state aid and grant funding, totaled $575,000 through the third quarter, reflecting an increase over 2024. This growth is primarily due to higher of receipt the and Housing Aid Affordable Local an (LAHA) Intensive Page 193 of 403 Comprehensive Peace Officer Education and Training (ICPOET) grant. Charges for Services reached $666,000, or 93% of budget. Although slightly lower than last year, the decline is mainly development large from fees fewer contract reduced to due administration projects. Revenue from fines and forfeits reached $39,000, or 68% of budget, and remained relatively stable compared to 2024. Investment income continues to outperform expectations, totaling $306,000, more than four times the annual budget. Rental income was also significantly higher than budgeted, totaling $113,000, largely driven by increased lease payments from the USDA. This includes adjustments for base rent, operating costs, and reimbursements for facility improvements. A portion of this revenue will be transferred to the Building Maintenance Fund at year-end. Franchise fee revenue totaled $72,500, or 60% of budget, slightly below prior year levels. Other miscellaneous revenues totaled $29,000, more than double the budgeted amount, though lower than the unusually high collections in 2024. Expenditures General Fund expenditures, including transfers, totaled $14.4 million, representing 73% of the annual budget through the third quarter. Overall spending is generally on track, though a few departments are trending above budget. primarily increased to due budget, expenditures 94% reached Resources Human of personnel costs and employment-related services, such as pre-employment testing and contracted staffing support. Within the Police Department, the Investigations Division was significantly over budget due to payroll coding which did not align accurately with the budgeted salary costs. The Patrol Division continued to show elevated spending due to equipment and training costs for new hires, including tuition for the ICPOET Program, which was reimbursed through grant funding. legal $31,600, totaling costs with Planning remained expenditures Zoning and high, exceeding the annual budget of $8,500 and last year's total of $23,400. This increase is primarily due to ongoing litigation and data request. Sanitation and Recycling costs were also above target, driven by County-supported recycling initiatives, most of which are expected to be reimbursed. Additionally, workers' compensation costs are trending above expectations and are anticipated to exceed the annual budget by approximately $50,000 by year-end. EDA, Park Improvement, and Arena The EDA (Economic Development Authority), Park Improvement Fund, and Ice Arena activities have, historically, been of interest to the City Council and are, therefore, included for review. EDA As including revenue in $145,000 received September the 30, of property EDA tax allocations and interest income. Expenditures totaled $61,500, primarily for professional Page 194 of 403 services and programming. This included work related to the grocery store study and enhanced marketing efforts. Park Improvement Fund The Park Improvement Fund collected $302,000 in park dedication fees through the third quarter, exceeding the annual budget of $200,000. This revenue was generated from three separate the which $76,000, supported Expenditures projects. development totaled purchase of playground equipment and signage for Westview Acres Park, as well as new signage installed at Rambling River Park. Arena The Ice Arena continues to operate at a deficit, with year-to-date expenditures exceeding revenues While provide fees user 30. by of as $77,000 approximately a September consistent source of income, they have not been sufficient to fully cover operating costs. This trend reflects the facility's reliance on other funding support to maintain operations. Enterprise Funds These funds are designed to be self-supporting, with user fees covering the cost of operations, infrastructure, and future system needs. The City operates five enterprise funds: liquor operations, sewer operations, storm water, water, and street lighting. Liquor Operations Liquor operations generated $5.1 million in sales year-to-date, with a combined gross profit margin of 26.9%, exceeding the 25% target. The net profit margin was 7.6%, above the 6% benchmark, resulting in $215,000 in net income. These results reflect stable operations and continued customer demand. As in prior years, staff will review year-end financials to determine the allocation of funds to set aside for Community Investment and Capital Improvements. Utility Funds The City's utility funds continue to perform well through the third quarter. While revenues in the Water, Sewer, and Storm Water funds appear to be between 73% and 79%, generally in line with third quarter expectations, they are actually very strong. Because utility bills issued early in 2026 will include usage from the final months of this year, a portion of those charges will be accrued back to 2025 at year-end. When adjusted for this timing, current revenue levels are tracking ahead of budget. Operating expenditures across all utility funds remain below budgeted levels. The Sewer Fund continues to reflect monthly charges from the Metropolitan Council Environmental Services (MCES), which represents the single largest expense across the utility funds. These charges are billed evenly throughout the year and are a key component of the Sewer Fund's cost structure. The Street Light Fund is also performing as expected, with revenues and expenditures both at approximately 77% of budget. Overall, the enterprise funds are financially stable and continue to support their respective operations. Page 195 of 403 BUDGET IMPACT: Applicable budget impacts have been noted above.

Employees taking intermittent leave must make a reasonable effort to schedule the intermittent leave with their department head at least seven (7) calendar days in advance of such leave. Any changes to the intermittent leave schedule should be provided to the employee’s department head at least seven (7) days in advance. Concurrent Leaves Employees taking PFML, whether intermittently or continuously, that are concurrently eligible for Family and Medical Leave Act (“FMLA”) and/or pregnancy/parenting leave under Minn. Stat. sec. 181.941 will automatically be placed on such leaves to run concurrently with PFML. Supplemental Benefits Employees are permitted and encouraged to use their available paid leave time (i.e. Paid Time Off, Vacation, Sick Leave, Compensatory Time) as a supplemental benefit while on leave under PFML. Health Insurance Employees taking PFML will continue to be covered under the City’s group health insurance plan under the same conditions and at the same level of City contributions as would have been provided had they been continuously employed during the leave period. Employees are responsible for their portion of premiums due on the coverage. Employee premiums must be paid to the City either through payroll deduction or by direct payment to the City. If an employee’s contribution is more than thirty (30) days late, the City may terminate the employee’s insurance coverage. PFML Fraud An employee is guilty of theft if they obtain or attempt to obtain benefits to which the individual is not entitled. Reporting false information to City’s designated PFML insurance carrier and/or the City of Farmington will be cause for discipline, up to and including termination.

DISCUSSION: A donation in the amount of $274.80 was recently made by Happy Harry’s Furniture to the RRC. The donation was made through a program created in 2011 in which a customer of Happy Harry’s Furniture can select a charity of their choice to receive a donation when merchandise is purchased from the store. Then 10% from the sale to the customer is donated to the charity. The RRC is one of the charities that can be selected by customers. With these donations, Happy Harry’s Furniture has donated a total of $17,856.23 to the RRC since the program’s inception. This partnership with Happy Harry’s Furniture has been very beneficial over the long term, given the funds that have been donated to the RRC.

Staff will communicate the City’s appreciation on behalf of the City Council to Happy Harry’s Furniture for their generous donation to the RRC.

ATTEST: ____________________________ ______________________________ Joshua Hoyt, Mayor Shirley R Buecksler, City Clerk Page 237 of 403 REGULAR COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO To: Mayor, Councilmembers and City Administrator From: Nate Siem, Police Chief Department: Police Subject: 2025 Joint Powers Agreement with the Domestic Preparedness Committee Meeting: Regular Council - Dec 15 2025 INTRODUCTION: The Dakota County Domestic Preparedness Committee (DPC) has updated its Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) to reflect revised governance structures, clarified response protocols, and updated financial and operational obligations for member agencies. This 2025 JPA replaces and supersedes previous versions, including the 2016 Amended and Restated JPA. All Dakota County municipalities and the County, itself, are parties to this agreement. Farmington’s continued participation ensures that the City maintains access to countywide preparedness planning, training, grant-funded resources, and activation of the Dakota County Special Operations Team (SOT) for large-scale disaster and emergency response. Since its inception, the Dakota County Domestic Preparedness Committee has served as the cooperative framework through which cities and the County plan for, train for, and respond to chemical, biological, radiological, nuclear, explosive (CBRNE) events, large- scale emergencies, and natural or manmade disasters. The JPA also governs the structure and deployment procedures for the Special Operations Team (SOT), which provides specialized rescue and technical response capabilities across jurisdictions. The 2025 revision: Updates the governance structure of the DPC Board Clarifies voting representation and meeting requirements Modernizes procedures for activating the Special Operations Team Reaffirms liability, indemnification, and insurance provisions Updates budgeting, grant acceptance, and financial responsibilities Formalizes documentation and signature requirements for all member agencies DISCUSSION: Adoption of the updated JPA ensures: Continued eligibility for federal and state homeland security and emergency Page 238 of 403 preparedness grant funding, which has historically provided equipment, training, and operational support at minimal cost to member cities. Access to highly specialized regional response assets through the SOT, including technical rescue, hazardous materials response, water rescue, and other mission- specific capabilities. Improved governance and operational clarity, including updated definitions, activation procedures, and responsibilities for mutual aid both within and outside Dakota County. Shared liability protections, including coverage through the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust and statutory immunities. The agreement contains no new operational burdens and maintains the City’s existing cost structure. Population-based contributions are only required in the event that grant funding is insufficient to support the operational budget. BUDGET IMPACT: There is no direct or immediate budget impact associated with adopting this agreement. Any future contribution obligations would occur only if grant funding is insufficient and would be based on population proportion, subject to annual Council approval. ACTION REQUESTED: Staff recommends adoption of the 2025 Joint Powers Agreement for the Dakota County Domestic Preparedness Committee and authorization for the Mayor and City Clerk to execute the agreement on behalf of the City of Farmington.

In designing parking spaces, the driving aisles should be aligned toward the major destination as permitted by topography. This allows for pedestrian traffic to move through the aisles instead of crossing parking bays. One solution to quality parking is to locate a planting island between parked cars and install a sidewalk for easy access to the major destination as permitted by topography. Plantings may be located along the sidewalk to promote an aesthetic approach toward the building. (E) Planting Requirements: 1. Specifications: The minimum planting sizes for all plant material is the following: (a) Evergreen trees: Six feet (6') in height as specified by the American Association of Nurserymen, except for the true dwarf varieties. (b) Ground cover plants: Crowns, plugs, containers, in a number as appropriate by species to provide fifty percent (50%) surface coverage after one growing season. The species must provide seventy five percent (75%) to one hundred percent (100%) surface coverage after two (2) growing seasons. (c) Medium and large deciduous shade trees: Two inch (2") caliper, as measured six inches (6") above the ground as specified by the American Association Of Nurserymen. (d) Shrubs (deciduous and evergreen, including spreader and globe tree forms): Twelve inches (12") to eighteen inches (18") in height. (e) Small deciduous or ornamental trees: Minimum caliper of one and one-half inches (11/2") as specified by the American Association of Nurserymen, except for the true dwarf varieties. (f) Sod: As required to provide coverage and soil stabilization. Sod is required in the street side yard or front yard and seeding may be planted within other areas of the yard. Page 283 of 403 (g) Turf and native grass: Seeding as appropriate to provide complete coverage within the first growing season. 2. Soil Specifications: The landscape plan must contain results of a water permeability test. A water permeability test is required in order to determine the type of soil the plant material is planted in. This requires a sharp shooter spade dug eighteen inches (18") into the ground. Fill the hole with water and if after eighteen (18) hours the hole still retains the water, the soil is determined to be too poor for planting. 3. Poor Soil Remedies: If the soil is determined to be too poor for planting, the following two (2) possible remedies are recommended. The first remedy is to install a ten foot (10') wide raised planting bed in order to provide acceptable planting soil. The height of the bed is the amount of soil it takes to cover the root ball of the plant to a level of two inches (2") above the ball. The bed must be covered with four inches (4") of mulch to provide for moisture retention. A second remedy is to excavate the soil to the depth of the root ball, allowing the root ball to rest on the clay soil. Excavate an area five (5) times the size of the root ball and replace the soil with quality planting soil. This will allow the tree roots to spread into adequate soil and provide an established root system before spreading into the poorer soil. (F) Lot Frontage Tree and Boulevard Tree Species: 1. Prohibited Species: (a) In no cases shall prohibited species be planted as boulevard trees. Prohibited species are defined as the following trees: Ash species Box elder Evergreens Ginkgo (female only) Nondisease resistant elm species Nonhybrid cottonwood species Silver maple (b) In no cases shall prohibited species be planted as lot frontage trees. Prohibited species are defined as the following trees: Ash species Box elder Nondisease resistant elm species Nonhybrid cottonwood species Page 284 of 403 Silver maple 2. Landscape Plan: Developers of new developments must submit a landscape plan to the planning division. The planning division will be responsible for approving appropriate lot frontage and boulevard tree plantings. The lot frontage trees are required in the front yards of lots in new developments. Boulevard trees in new developments shall only be installed on city approved boulevard tree routes. The only exception would be if an agreement is made with a homeowners' association or other such organization where the responsibility to maintain the trees is that of the named organization in perpetuity. (a) Spacing for Lot Frontage and Boulevard Trees: (1) Lot frontage trees in new developments shall be installed on private property in the front yard at a minimum spacing of one tree for every forty feet (40') of lot frontage or one tree per lot if forty feet (40') is not feasible. The developer is responsible for installing the lot frontage trees per the landscape plan as required by the development contract. Special planting designs for lot frontage trees need to be approved by the planning division. (2) Boulevard trees in new developments shall be located on city approved boulevard tree routes and be installed at a minimum spacing of one tree for every forty feet (40') of boulevard frontage or one tree per boulevard frontage if forty feet (40') is not feasible. The developer is responsible for installing the boulevard trees per the landscape plan as required by the development contract. (b) Location for Lot Frontage and Boulevard Trees: (1) Lot frontage trees in new developments shall be planted by the developer per the development contract on private property eight feet (8') from the front property line and shall be installed in a parallel line to the front lot line. (2) Boulevard trees in new developments shall be planted by the developer per the development contract on city approved boulevard tree routes in the center of the city boulevard width between the property line and curb or the sidewalk and curb. The distance trees may be planted from curbs, sidewalks, trails, or pavement shall be no closer than four feet (4'). (c) Distance from Street Corners and Fire Hydrants: No lot frontage tree, boulevard tree, replacement tree, landscape material or fences shall be located within the triangle of visibility, which is the area within a triangle created by measuring from a point on the curb or edge of the street closest to the center of the intersection, down the front curb lines or edge or intersecting streets thirty feet (30'), and connecting their end points with a straight line. No lot frontage tree, boulevard tree, or replacement tree shall be planted closer than ten feet (10') from any fire hydrant. (d) Utilities: No lot frontage tree, boulevard tree, or replacement tree may be planted within ten (10) lateral feet of any underground water line or sewer line (sanitary or storm) and two feet (2') from any other underground utility. Gopher State One shall be called to request locations of utilities. Page 285 of 403 (G) Tree Maintenance: 1. The natural resources program is designed to prescribe various levels of maintenance to city boulevard trees located within city boulevards. (a) Planting Requirements: The natural resources division will review all planting of trees and shrubs within "city boulevards", defined as the area between property lines on either side of all streets, avenues, or ways within the city. (b) Replacement of Trees: (1) The city shall be responsible for removing existing boulevard trees that have died, are dying, or sustained severe damage. The city shall replace trees on designated boulevard tree routes. (2) The owner of any lot of record may, at his or her own risk, replace a dead boulevard tree in the front yard of the home outside of side yard drainage and utility easements at eight feet (8') from the property line in front yard drainage and utility easements. (c) Trimming Requirements: The city will be responsible for all trimming of boulevard trees. As these trees are on city property, and are essentially and legally city property, they must be maintained by the city to ensure that they are properly trimmed for structural integrity and disease control measures. (d) Responsibility for Maintenance of Trees: (1) The city will inspect and trim boulevard trees. (2) The homeowner shall be responsible for trimming lot frontage trees or any other trees on private property. (e) Height Standards: Trimming height standards must maintain a ten foot (10') clearance above any walkway and fourteen feet (14') above the roadway. These requirements provide clearance for walkers, snow removal equipment and solid waste vehicles. (f) Brush from Pruning: The city will not collect any brush resulting from pruning or removal of trees or brush from private property. (g) Emergency Collection of Brush: An emergency brush situation would occur when the public safety officer declares one to exist. Then and only then will the city collect brush generated by residents on private property, as a onetime emergency service. (H) Tree Topping: 1. It shall be unlawful as a normal practice for any person to top any street tree, park tree or other tree on public property except as allowed in section 8-6-10 of this code. "Topping" is defined as the severe cutting back of limbs to stubs larger than three inches (3") in diameter within the tree's crown to such a degree so as to remove the normal canopy and disfigure the tree. Trees severely damaged by storms or other causes, or Page 286 of 403 certain trees under utility wires or other obstructions where other pruning practices are impractical may be exempted from this subsection at the determination of the natural resources division. (I) Pruning, Corner Clearance: 1. Prune branches so that such branches shall not obstruct the view of any street intersection and so that there shall be a clear space of ten feet (10') above the surface of the street or sidewalk. Said owners shall remove all dead, diseased or dangerous trees, or broken or decayed limbs that constitute a menace to the safety of the public. The city shall have the right to prune any tree or shrub on private property when it interferes with the proper spread of light along the street from a streetlight or interferes with visibility of any traffic control device or sign. (J) Dead or Diseased Tree Removal on Private Property: 1. The city shall have the right to cause the removal of any dead or diseased trees on private property within the city in accordance with title 7, chapter 6 of this code when such trees constitute a hazard to life and property, or harbor insects or disease which constitute a potential threat to other trees in the city. The natural resources division will notify, in writing, the owners of such trees. Removal shall be done by said owners at their own expense within sixty (60) days after the date of service of notice. In the event of failure of owners to comply with such provisions, the city shall have the authority to remove such trees and charge the cost of removal on the owners' property tax notices. (K) Removal of Stumps: 1. All stumps of street and park trees shall be removed below the surface of the ground so that the top of the stump shall not project above the surface of the ground. (L) Tree Protection in Construction Zones: 1. Specifications: Existing trees and vegetation that are to be saved shall be protected from all construction activities, including earthwork operations, movement and storage of equipment, and materials and dumping of toxic materials. A minimum protection zone shall be established by the installation of temporary fencing around existing vegetation to be preserved, placing the fencing no closer to the trees than their drip lines, and this information shown and noted on the plans. Protective fencing shall be maintained throughout the construction period. Alternative protection measures may be approved by the zoning officer. Construction details which indicate special techniques that will be employed to save trees are required for all existing trees for which credit is desired. Existing trees will be counted as fulfilling the landscaping requirements of this section. Trees counted shall be all existing deciduous trees with a trunk size of four inches (4") or larger, measured at four and one-half feet (41/2') above the ground and all existing evergreen trees measuring five (5) vertical feet or more in height. 2. Replacement: If any of the trees required to be retained or trees planted as part of the landscaping plan should die within a period of two (2) years after completion of the activities associated with construction of the site, the owner of the property must replace Page 287 of 403 the trees within six (6) months at a ratio of one to one (1:1) with an approved tree having a minimum diameter of two inches (2") measured at a point six inches (6") above the natural grade. Shrubbery or other plantings which die within two (2) years of completion of the activities shall be replaced in kind within six (6) months. (M) Overhead Utility Line Planting Requirements: 1. Location: Overhead utility lines must be located on the landscape plan. In order to allow for maintenance of the lines, if an overhead utility line is located in the rear yard along the property line, the buffer plantings required in the buffer yard shall be installed following guidelines set below. If the overhead utility line is located in the rear yard, but five feet (5') to ten feet (10') from the property line, the screening and buffer yard plantings shall be installed along the property line with city staff approval. 2. Species: The following guidelines must be considered when planting near overhead utility lines. Considerations should be given to soil conditions, drainage, exposure, growth patterns, and local experience when selecting plant materials. Type Height Where Planted Shrubs Maximum of 15 feet Under overhead lines Small trees Over 15 feet, but under 30 feet At least 15 feet from overhead utility lines Medium trees 30 - 70 feet At least 35 feet from overhead utility lines Large trees Over 70 feet At least 45 feet from overhead utility lines (N) Landscape Guarantee: 1. Guarantee: All new plantings shall be guaranteed for two (2) full years from the time planting has been completed. Plants not alive at the end of the guarantee period shall be replaced. 2. Surety: Prior to approval of the landscape plan, the applicant shall submit surety acceptable to the city administrator in the amount of the established costs of complying with the plan. The aforesaid surety shall be provided for guaranteeing completion and compliance with the plan. Page 288 of 403 3. Completion or Bond: A certificate of occupancy shall not be issued until either the landscaping is completed or a bond has been filed. (Ord. 016-716, 9-6-2016; amd.

SPECIMEN TREE: A healthy hardwood deciduous tree measuring equal to or greater than thirty inches (30") in diameter. WOODLAND PRESERVATION PLAN: A plan prepared by a certified forester or landscape architect that clearly shows which trees on a site are to be preserved, and what measures will be taken to preserve them. The plan will also include calculations to determine the number of replacement trees required. (C) Applicability: 1. Woodland Preservation Plan: A woodland preservation plan shall be submitted to and approved by the city, and implemented in accord with the plan in connection with any of the following: (a) New development in any zoning district. (b) New building construction in any zoning district. Page 290 of 403 (c) Expansion of any existing commercial, industrial or institutional building where an approved tree preservation plan is not on file with the city. (d) Any project for which a city land disturbance permit is required. (e) Any landscape plan as required by section 10-6-10 of this chapter when significant trees or significant woodlands exist in the proposed construction zone. 2. Woodland Preservation Plan Requirements: The woodland preservation plan shall reflect the developer's best effort to determine the most feasible and practical layout of buildings, parking lots, driveways, streets, storage and other physical features, so that the fewest significant trees and/or smallest area of significant woodland are destroyed or damaged. The woodland preservation plan shall be a separate plan sheet(s) that include the following information: (a) The name and address of the applicant, and status of the applicant with respect to the land. (b) The name, telephone number(s) and address of the person responsible for tree preservation during the course of the development project.

(e) Boundary lines of the property with accurate dimensions as established by survey. (f) Location of all existing and proposed structures, roads, utilities and driveways on the site. (g) A tree inventory, indicating the size, species, general health, and location of all existing significant trees, specimen trees and significant woodlands located within the area to be developed or within the parcel of record. All significant trees and specimen trees must be tagged in the field for reference on the tree preservation plan. These significant trees should be identified on the plan sheet in both graphic and tabular form. (h) Trees that were planted as part of a commercial business such as a tree farm or nursery do not need to be inventoried on an individual basis. A general description of the trees and an outer boundary of the planted area must be provided. The burden of proof shall be on the applicant to provide evidence to support the finding that the trees were planted as part of a commercial business. (i) A listing of the total diameter inches of healthy significant trees inventoried in subsection (C)2(g) of this section. Dead, diseased or dying trees and invasive tree species do not need to be included in the totals. (j) A listing of the total diameter inches of healthy significant trees proposed to be removed, total diameter inches of healthy hardwood deciduous trees to be removed, total Page 291 of 403 diameter inches of healthy coniferous/evergreen trees to be removed, and total diameter inches of common trees to be removed. (k) Outer boundaries and areas (acres) of all contiguous wooded areas or significant woodlands, with a general description of the natural community type or predominant canopy tree species not meeting the significant tree size threshold. (l) Locations of the proposed buildings, structures, or impervious surfaces. (m) Delineation of all areas to be graded and limits of land disturbance, showing one foot (1') or two foot (2') contour intervals. (n) Measures proposed to be implemented to protect significant trees and specimen trees, including required protective measures and any additional protective measures as identified in this section. (o) Size, species, number and location of all replacement trees or woodlands to be planted on the property in accord with the tree replacement schedule. Replacement trees or woodlands shall not include invasive tree species. (p) Signature and qualifications of the person(s) preparing the plan. The plan shall be certified by a forester, ecologist, landscape architect or other qualified professional retained by the applicant. 3. Submission Requirements: The woodland preservation plan shall be submitted with any preliminary plat plan, site plan or landscape plan, as required by the regulations of this code; or incorporated as part of a grading plan and application for any grading permit as required by this code. 4. Implementation: All sites shall be staked, as depicted in the approved tree preservation plan, and the required tree protection fencing shall be installed before land disturbance is to commence. The city shall inspect the construction site prior to the beginning of the land disturbance to ensure that protective fencing and other protective measures are in place. No encroachment, land disturbance, trenching, filling, compaction or change in soil chemistry shall occur within the fenced areas protecting the critical root zone of the trees to be saved. 5. Allowable Tree Removal: Up to thirty percent (30%) of the diameter inches of significant trees on any parcel of land being developed may be removed without replacement requirements. Replacement according to the tree replacement schedule is required when removal exceeds more than thirty percent (30%) of the total significant tree diameter inches. The following types of trees do not need to be included as part of the tally of tree removals: (a) Dead, diseased, or dying trees. (b) Trees that are transplanted from the site to another appropriate area within the city. Page 292 of 403 (c) Trees that were planted as part of a commercial business such as a tree farm or nursery. (d) Invasive tree species. 6. Mitigation: In any development where the allowable tree removal is exceeded, the applicant shall mitigate the tree loss by: (a) Planting replacement trees in appropriate areas within the development in accordance with the tree replacement schedule; or (b) Planting replacement trees on city property under the direction of the parks and recreation director or natural resource specialist; or (c) Paying the city the fee set forth in the fee schedule adopted by city council by ordinance. The payment shall be deposited into an account designated specifically for tree planting. 7. Tree Replacement Calculations: Thirty percent (30%) of the total diameter inches of significant trees on the site may be removed without replacement. The allowable thirty percent (30%) removal is first credited to the common trees removed, then the conifers, and lastly the hardwood species. The following calculation procedure must be used to determine tree placement requirements: (a) Calculate thirty percent (30%) of the total diameter inches of significant trees on the site. This is the allowable tree removal limit, or the number of inches that can be removed without replacement. (b) Subtract the total diameter inches of common tree species that will be removed from the allowable limit. (c) If there are any allowable inches left, subtract the total diameter inches of coniferous/evergreen tree species that will be removed from the remaining allowable inches. (d) If there are any allowable inches left, subtract the total diameter inches of hardwood deciduous tree species that will be removed from the remaining allowable inches. If at any point in the above calculation procedure the number of inches to be removed exceeds the thirty percent (30%) allowable removal limit, the remaining inches of removal above the allowable limit must be replaced according to the tree replacement schedule in subsection (C)8 of this section. 8. Tree Replacement Schedule: Tree removals over the allowable tree removal limit on the parcel shall be replaced according to the following schedule: Page 293 of 403 (a) Common tree species shall be replaced with new trees, at a rate of one-eighth (1/8) the diameter inches lost (i.e., 1 inch diameter of replacement trees for each 8 inches of tree diameter lost). Replacement trees must be a minimum of one inch (1") diameter. (b) Coniferous/evergreen species shall be replaced with new trees, coniferous or deciduous, at a rate of one-fourth (1/4) the diameter inches lost (i.e., 1 inch diameter of replacement trees for each 4 inches of tree diameter lost). Replacement trees must be a minimum of one inch (1") in diameter. Since coniferous species are often sold by height rather than diameter inch, the following conversion formula can be used: Height of replacement coniferous tree/2 = Diameter inches of credit (c) Hardwood deciduous tree species shall be replaced with new hardwood deciduous trees at a rate of one-half (1/2) the diameter inches lost (i.e., 1 inch diameter of replacement trees for each 2 inches of tree diameter lost). Replacement trees must be a minimum of one inch (1") in diameter. 9. Significant Woodland Replacement: All significant woodlands removed must be replaced by the applicant. The number of replacement trees shall be determined by either of the following methods. Either method of replacement may be used when the number of replacement trees required is equal, or the applicant shall utilize the method that yields the greater number of replacement trees: (a) Replacement of significant trees within the significant woodland that are damaged or destroyed, per the tree replacement schedule described in subsection (C)8 of this section. (b) Replacement for every one hundred twenty five (125) square feet of significant woodland damaged or destroyed, or increment thereof, with: (1) One deciduous tree of at least four (4) caliper inches or one coniferous tree at least twelve feet (12') tall; or (2) Two (2) deciduous trees of at least 2.5 caliper inches or two (2) coniferous trees at least six feet (6') tall; or (3) Four (4) deciduous trees of at least 1.5 caliper inches or four (4) coniferous trees at least four feet (4') tall. (c) Trees planted to replace significant woodlands must be arranged in stands to provide a habitat similar to the damaged or destroyed habitat. An appropriate native understory seed mix must be planted along with the replacement trees. 10. Species Requirement: The city must approve all species used for tree replacement. Ornamental trees are not acceptable for use as replacement trees. Where ten (10) or more replacement trees are required, not more than thirty percent (30%) of the replacement trees shall be of the same species. 11. Warranty Requirement: Any replacement tree which is not alive or healthy, as determined by the city, or which subsequently dies due to construction activity within two Page 294 of 403 (2) years after the date of project closure shall be removed by the applicant and replaced with a new healthy tree meeting the same minimum size requirements within eight (8) months of removal. 12. Performance Guarantee: The applicant shall provide the required performance guarantee following preliminary approval of the woodland preservation plan, and prior to any construction and/or grading. The amount of the performance guarantee shall be based on the city's fee schedule. 13. Required Protective Measures: The woodland preservation plan shall identify the measures to be utilized to protect significant trees. The following measures are required to be utilized to protect significant trees: (a) Installation of snow fencing or polyethylene laminate safety netting placed at the drip line or at the perimeter of the critical root zone, whichever is greater, of significant trees, specimen trees, and significant woodlands to be preserved. No grade change, construction activity, or storage of materials shall occur within this fenced area. (b) Identification of any oak trees requiring pruning between April 15 and July 1. Any oak trees so pruned shall be required to have any cut areas sealed with an appropriate nontoxic tree wound sealant. (c) Prevention of change in soil chemistry due to concrete washout and leakage or spillage of toxic materials, such as fuels or paints. (d) Removal of any nuisance trees located in the areas to be preserved. 14. Additional Protective Measures: The following measures to protect significant trees that are intended to be preserved according to the submitted tree preservation plan may be required by the city: (a) Installation of retaining walls or tree wells to preserve trees. (b) Placement of utilities in common trenches outside of the drip line of significant trees, or use of tunneled installation. (c) Use of tree root aeration, fertilization, and/or irrigation systems. (d) Therapeutic pruning. 15. Incentives For Woodland Protection: As an incentive to protect contiguous wooded areas, the city will allow the following: (a) Density Transfer: Density of units that would be allowed in a protected woodland area may be transferred to other areas of the development, in excess of the density limits of the underlying zoning district. In order for the density transfer to be approved, the protected woodland must be an easement dedicated to the city. (b) Unit Bonus: For each acre of wooded area preserved and dedicated to the city over and above the normal ten percent (10%) park land dedication, the developer will be allowed an additional unit above the original unit allocation. Page 295 of 403 (c) Tree Bank Areas: Developers that own parcels without trees may dedicate appropriate areas of their plats as "tree bank" areas. These areas would be available to accept trees planted as mitigation for tree removals from other sites. For each acre of "tree bank" area permanently dedicated to the city over and above the normal park land dedication, the developer will be allowed an additional unit above the original unit allocation. The dedication may include establishment of a fund for maintenance of the tree bank, based on the recommendation of the park and recreation director or the natural resource specialist. The areas proposed to be dedicated to a tree bank must be consistent with the city's comprehensive plan provisions for greenway opportunities, park plans, etc., or must be adjacent to or provide an enhancement to existing park facilities. Property dedicated must be usable upland (not wetlands, ponds or utility easements, etc.). The city retains the right to determine whether or not it will accept the property proposed to be dedicated for a tree bank. 16. Compliance With The Woodland Protection Plan: The applicant shall implement the woodland preservation plan prior to and during any construction. The woodland protection measures shall remain in place until all land disturbance and construction activity is terminated or until a request to remove the woodland and tree protection measures is made to, and approved by, the city. (a) No significant trees shall be removed until a woodland preservation plan is approved and except in accordance with the approved tree preservation plan as approved by the city. If a significant tree(s) intended to be preserved is removed without permission of the city or damaged so that it is in a state of decline within one year from the date of project closure, a cash mitigation, calculated per diameter inch of the removed/destroyed tree in the amount set forth in the city fee schedule, shall be remitted to the city. (b) The city shall have the right to inspect the development and/or building site in order to determine compliance with the approved woodland preservation plan. The city shall determine whether compliance with the woodland preservation plan has been met. 17. Existing Developed Commercial Properties: (a) Trees that are removed that were part of an approved landscape plan must be replaced in accordance with the original landscaping plan, unless city approval is obtained for an alternative landscape plan. (b) Trees that are removed that were part of a designated woodland preservation area must be replaced in accordance with the tree replacement requirements outlined in this section. The thirty percent (30%) allowable tree removal limit does not apply in these situations. 18. Exceptions: (a) Exception Standards: Notwithstanding the city's desire to accomplish the tree protection goals outlined in this section, there may be instances where these goals are in conflict with other city objectives. These conflicts are most likely to occur on small, heavily Page 296 of 403 wooded parcels. At the discretion of the city council, exceptions may be granted if all of the following conditions exist: (1) The subject parcel is five (5) acres in size or less. (2) It is not feasible to combine the subject parcel with adjacent parcels that could use the parcel as required green space. (3) Strict adherence to the requirements of this section would prevent reasonable development that is consistent with the comprehensive plan and desirable to the city on the parcel. (4) The exception requested is the minimum needed to accomplish the desired development. (b) Exception Provisions: If an exception is granted, relief from the requirements of this section may take the form of reduced mitigation requirements, greater allowable tree removal, higher thresholds for determining significant trees or any combination of the above. The city council will approve the form of relief that best balances the objectives of the city and tree preservation.

The agreement will allow Farmington to continue providing solid waste and recycling coordinated services for the cities via a Solid Waste and Recycling Coordinator. A similar agreement was approved in preceding years. DISCUSSION: Currently, the administration of this grant is the responsibility of Violet Penman, Solid Waste and Recycling Coordinator, who is an employee of Rosemount but administers the program to the Cities of Hastings, Farmington, and Rosemount. Program funding is used to support a broad scope of waste and recycling activities including the mattress/box spring drop-off and document shred events, the pumpkin collection, various swaps, holiday light collections, etc. The grant administration activities are described in detail in the Agreement and Dakota County Waste Abatement Community Grant Program Exhibit 1 (Guidelines) and Exhibit 2 (Application). BUDGET IMPACT: The total expected grant dollars for reimbursement in 2026 is $121,778.00; this accounts for funding allocated to the cities of Hastings ($33,538.00), Farmington ($32,624.00), and Rosemount ($55,616.00). The City of Rosemount shall act as the fiscal agent for the Cities and is authorized to pay program expenses and receive reimbursements. Thus, the City of Farmington will have minimal interaction with program expenses and reimbursements. Dakota County requires two reports and reimbursement requests in July 2026 and January 2027. The expected 2026 cost of $32,624 is a reduction of about 8.6% from 2025. ACTION REQUESTED: Authorize the submittal of the 2026 Dakota County Community Waste Abatement Grant Program Agreement.

Revised: 11/23 Page 336 of 403 REGULAR COUNCIL AGENDA MEMO To: Mayor, Councilmembers and City Administrator From: John Powell, Public Works Director Department: Engineering Subject: Agreement with Backflow Solutions, Inc. for Backflow Data Management Meeting: Regular Council - Dec 15 2025 INTRODUCTION: Earlier this year, responsibility for the administration of plumbing backflow testing was moved from Building Inspection to Public Works. This provides consistency with the state requirement that test results be submitted to the community public water purveyor, Public Works has the primary responsibility for the City water system. To conserve Staff resources, it is proposed that we contract with Backflow Solutions, Inc. (BSI) for maintaining the test records and providing the required property owner notices. DISCUSSION: The 2020 Minnesota Plumbing Code defines backflow as "The flow of water or other liquids, mixtures, or substances into the distributing pipes of a potable supply of water from sources other than its intended source." We don't want the flow reversed in our water system, such as water flowing from a house toward our water system, as this could cause contaminants to enter the public water system. Backflow prevention devices serve to allow flow in only one direction, toward our customers. Per Section 603.2 of the 2020 Minnesota Plumbing Code, backflow devices "shall be maintained in good working condition by the person or persons having control of such devices or assemblies. The devices or assemblies shall be tested at the time of installation, repair or relocation and not less than on an annual schedule thereafter." The attached fact sheet from the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry has additional information. BSI has been in business for about 30 years and provides backflow tracking services to many communities in the U.S. and Canada including the cities of Red Wing and Lakeville. Recently, Public Works Staff met with BSI and had a demonstration of their system. Advantages to utilizing BSI's online system: BSI serves as the contact for the device testers. As part of their implementation process, they will go through the data to ensure there are no discrepancies, i.e. manufacturer/model, duplicates, etc. They expect to Page 337 of 403 get our program started online within 120 days of executing the agreement and receiving our data. BSI can send multiple automated annual notices on our behalf via USPS First-Class Mail. BSI provides 100% in-house and onshore support with a support team dedicated to Farmington. This includes virtual training to City Staff and the testing community to make a smooth transition for the program. BSI tracks all the mandatory state/local credentials for the testers to ensure all contractors are properly certified. Each device is established per State standards to ensure that all data submitted into the system meets the proper requirements. The City can have unlimited users from different departments. Data is accessible to the City 24/7. They can track unique identifiers such as account number, meter number, or location ID; this helps to import backflow data from BSI to another program such as GIS, as desired. The City can create and export an unlimited number of comprehensive reports, including a non-compliance report. Based on discussion among Public Works Staff, the Tier 2 Premium Package has been determined to best meet the City's needs. The City Attorney has reviewed the proposed agreement, and BSI made one minor change at the City's request. BUDGET IMPACT: Based on Tier 2 Premium Package pricing, BSI charges the Water Purveyor (the City) $995 annually. Contractors and others completing the testing will pay BSI a data entry charge of $16.95 per testing report submission. The City will also pay a one-time implementation fee of $3,000 to set up the City in their system, import and clean up (as necessary) the data, and provide training for City Staff on accessing the data and generating reports. The annual and implementation fee costs will be charged to the Water Fund. ACTION REQUESTED: Authorize the Mayor to execute the Agreement with Backflow Solutions, Inc. for Backflow Data Management.

BACKFLOW SOLUTIONS, INC., An Illinois corporation (“BSI”) By: Name: Victoria Rodriguez Title: Sales Representative Date: Address: THE CITY OF FARMINGTON, MINNESOTA A body politic and corporate (the “Water Purveyor”) By: Name: Joshua Hoyt Title: Mayor Date: December 15, 2025 Address: 12609 South Laramie Avenue Alsip, Illinois 60803 430 Third St Farmington, MN 55024 Page 341 of 403 TRACKING SCOPE OF WORK Data Transition* - BSI will prep your electronic file for import into the BSI Online system. CSV, XLS, and XLXS are preferred. We can assist with paper records for a fee. *BSI establishes the database to consolidate assemblies into a smaller number of accounts per unique address. This established and trusted process helps reduce the amount of mail and notifications sent to a unique property. If you request separate accounts per assembly (unique address receiving multiple letters), a data storage/processing fee will be charged. Cloud-Based Test Submittal - Test entry is cloud-based, enabling the testers to access the program from anywhere, whether they are in the field or at their office. This allows for real-time submittal of test reports. Key Performance Indicators & Reporting - BSI Online provides real-time data, including pre-built and customizable reports. All information is accessible 24/7 and downloadable in CSV format. Users - Water Purveyor can have an unlimited number of simultaneous users. Our solution allows each user to have different roles and permissions tailored to the Water Purveyor's needs. User Logs - BSI Online is built on the foundation of accountability and transparency. All transactions are time-stamped with usernames, allowing the Water Purveyor to monitor issues, comments, or concerns in real time. Notifications* & Archived Copies - Water Purveyor chooses the preferred program package. BSI automates two (2) to four (4) notifications to customers with identified testable backflow assemblies. All mailings are handled in-house, leveraging decades of experience to ensure timely and efficient delivery. Notifications are sent via USPS First-Class Mail and furnished with the Water Purveyor logo. All notifications are time-stamped per property for full transparency. *With our tracking scope of work, BSI is only sending letters to properties that have backflow assembly information. Should the Water Purveyor desire BSI to generate and mail other/additional letters such as notices to properties that do not have assembly information (remediation and installation notices), this is considered an extra service and must be purchased separately. Additional Notifications - To help increase testing compliance for known assemblies, clients can utilize our Letter Template feature to create, generate, print, and mail compliance or enforcement letters. Returned Mail* - BSI can assist with returned mail. Our return address would be listed on notification letters. We would research why it got returned, find a new mailing address, and re-send the notification letter. *Should the Water Purveyor be unwilling or unable to provide BSI with the requested customer billing information, returned mail will be sent back to the Water Purveyor for research and action. Validation of Test Results - Each test form is coded to automatically determine pass/fail based on the State standards per assembly type. Results are instantly updated in BSI Online, with copies of each test report accessible to the tester, Water Purveyor, and water customer. Validation of Credentials - BSI verifies tester and testing company credentials, including test gauge calibrations. Expired credentials trigger the tester to be locked out until updated documentation is submitted to BSI and properly vetted. This proactive approach is integral to the integrity of your program. Expert Support - We offer unlimited virtual customer service at no additional cost. Dedicated teams for testers and water customers ensure inquiries are handled by our expert personnel, reducing the burden on your staff. The Water Purveyor is also assigned a dedicated account manager focused on ensuring program success. Water Customer Portal - All properties have a unique identifier, a Customer Confirmation Number (CCN). Water customers can use the CCN to access their records, including notifications, the most recent backflow test reports, and a list of licensed backflow testing companies that meet the criteria set by the Water Purveyor. Product Support - Our in-house development team quickly identifies and resolves user issues to ensure continued system reliability and operational efficiency. AWS Security - BSI partners with Amazon Web Services (AWS) for industry-leading security, cloud-based data storage, and flexibility as your program grows.

The City frequently uses GovDeals for auctioning equipment and also has the opportunity to list items on the Marketplace portion of the League of Minnesota Cities website. Earlier this year, Public Works Staff met with another auction service, Purple Wave, and recommends entering into a contract for their services. DISCUSSION: The proposed Umbrella Auction Agreement is attached and has been reviewed by the City Attorney. With regard to the agreement, please note: There is no charge to a government entity to sell with Purple Wave Auction so there is no service fee and there is no set percentage to sell. A Property List form will be filled out for the items to be auctioned. Any department within the City is able to auction items with Purple Wave under this agreement. As the City typically owns the assets and there are no liens or other encumbrance, the Ownership section has been completed appropriately. Regardless of entity, if the City of Farmington needed to purchase an asset through Purple Wave Auction, there is a 10% buyer premium. Purple Wave has the ability to set up Automated Clearing House (ACH) payments with the City of Farmington so that the sale proceeds may be delivered directly into a City bank account, if desired. Public Works worked with Purple Wave earlier this year to auction a few items to better understand their processes and had a positive experience. BUDGET IMPACT: There is no cost to the City of Farmington to use auction services via Purple Wave.

This change reflects rising disposal costs at Xcel and area landfills, along with general inflation. We recognize that all communities face similar pressures and remain committed to transparency and partnership. Red Wing pays the same disposal rates as our contracting partners, including Farmington and Hastings, and our shared goal is to maintain reliable, responsible waste -management services for the region. Our work with Xcel helps meet Minnesota’s environmental goals, and together we’ve kept more than 92% of Red Wing’s waste out of landfills through energy recovery and material recycling. These efforts protect our environment and support long -term cost stability. We value our collaboration and appreciate your continued partnership. Please contact me with any questions.

Ordinance and Public Hearing Meeting: Regular Council - Dec 15 2025 INTRODUCTION: City Staff annually review fees charged for work items, rentals, and services performed. Staff recommendations are attached, and a public hearing must be held on the proposed changes. DISCUSSION: The Management Team reviewed the 2025 Fee Schedule for recommendations for 2026. The following changes are noted in the attached draft under "2026 Amount." Administration Club On-Sale Intoxicating Liquor fees added from Minnesota Statutes 340A.408. New: Cannabis Retail Business Fees and Penalties. Schedule J, Meeting Room, has been deleted in its entirety. Conference Rooms 169 and 170 at City Hall are too small for what the public is looking for - the Rambling River Center and other locations around Farmington have amenities to better serve the public's needs. These rooms have not been reserved in at least four years due to the lack of amenities. Community Development The main proposed change is a 6% increase to the valuation table (Schedule I) and the cost per square foot tables for Residential Building Valuations. The proposed change is based on past increases as compared to our building valuation table, compared to surrounding communities, and increases published by the International Code Council for Building Valuation Data. In 2023, an increase of 10% was applied to the valuation tables, which appeared to be a catch-up year. What is proposed for 2026 is an additional 6% increase for a 2% increase year-over-year to account for inflation, better alignment with actual construction costs, and provide for revenue stability. Below is a list of proposed fee schedule changes: 1. Schedule I: 6% increase 2. Plan review revision: $100/flat fee Page 357 of 403 3. Lawn irrigation: $80 (no change) - but not currently listed in the fee schedule 4. "Will Meet" fee: $80 - this is a fee collected for roof, siding, window/door permits when no installation photos are taken and the contractor has to lift shingles or remove finish trim to verify proper installation. 5. New Tenant / Change of Use / Occupancy Classification: $160 Flat Fee Rate - this was implemented in 2025 to address and track 1306 compliance. The $160 flat fee covers an initial walk of the property, final inspection, and issuance of a Certificate of Occupancy. Parks & Recreation Rambling River Center Annual membership - individual increased from $41 to $45 Sound System Rental now included in Room Rental Fees Schmitz-Maki Arena Advertising Rates Dasher Boards for 6/01/26 - 5/31/27 (One Year) increased to $600 Dasher Boards for 6/01/26 - 5/31/27 (Three Years) increased to $550/year = $1,650 total Schmitz-Maki Arena Rates (6/01/26 - 5/31/27) Ice Time - Prime Time increased to $315/hour plus tax Ice Time - Non-Prime Time increased to $265/hour plus tax Indoor Turf Rental increased to $125/hour plus tax Summer Ice - June through August increased to $265/hour plus tax Rambling River Center Room Rental Rates (Schedule G) Banquet Room rate increased to $520 for 4-hour rental block and increased to $130 for each additional hour rented beyond the original 4-hour block. If cleaning takes more than three hours, billing for additional cleaning time beyond the three hours increased to $80 per additional hour. New: Banquet Room 10-hour rental and two hours for set up / clean up time (12 hours total) for $1,300. If cleaning takes more than three hours, billing for additional cleaning time beyond the three hours will be $80 per hour. Empire Room rate increased to $95 for 2-hour time block and $48 each additional hour. Non-Tournament Outdoor Field Use Charges (Schedule H) Adult Groups fee increased to $75 Youth Groups fee increased to $70 Tournament Outdoor Field Use Charges (Schedule H) Baseball and Softball Fields fee increased to $85 / field / day. Soccer Fields fee increased to $85 / field / day. Public Works Sanitary Sewer Trunk Area Charge, Water Trunk Area Charge, and Sealcoating Fee Page 358 of 403 adjusted to reflect annual construction cost increase. Water Tower Lease rates increased by 5% over 2025 rates to be consistent with the rate escalation language included in lease agreements. Water utility rates were increased by 1% per the Utility Rate Study presented to the City Council in July of 2023 and updated in November of 2024. The quarterly water base rate includes an increase of $1.38 to account for Minnesota Department of Health $15.22/year to from Fee $9.72/year Service Water Drinking Connection ($1.375 increase per quarter). Meter prices listed for 2026 based on estimated material cost increases. 19% Study Rate Utility the per by were rates utility Sewer Sanitary increased presented to the City Council in July of 2023 and updated in November of 2024. Storm Water utility rates were increased by 2.75% per the Utility Rate Study presented to the City Council in July of 2023 and updated in November of 2024. Street Light utility rates were increased by 4.0% to account for increasing electricity and repair costs. Backflow Assembly Test fee added as the 2020 Minnesota Plumbing Code requires that all testable backflow devices be tested upon installation and at least annually thereafter by a certified backflow assembly tester. We anticipate a third-party vendor for tracking these inspections. "Failure to complete the required escrow work items within one year of issuance of a Temporary or Final Certificate of Occupancy will result in forfeiture of the Builder's Deposit / Escrow deposit to the City of Farmington." added to the fee schedule. This is to incentivize the builders to complete the work in a timely manner and eliminate aged escrows needing to be tracked. BUDGET IMPACT: The revenue from the proposed fee schedule for 2026 has been incorporated into the 2026 budget. ACTION REQUESTED: Staff recommends that the City Council: Hold a public hearing on the 2026 Fee Schedule. Motion to approve the 2026 Fee Schedule and pass Ordinance 2025-009 Establishing Charges and Fees for Licenses, Permits, or Other City Approvals and Services for Calendar Year 2026.
