Moved by Councilmember Schultz; seconded by Councilmember Moratzka to approve the two 2005 reconstruction resolutions as presented. 7 Ayes; Nays, None. Copy of resolutions on file. Resolution-Approving Reduction of Proposed Assessments for Forest Street Public Works Director Montgomery requested Council consideration of a resolution reducing the proposed assessments for Forest Street by $500, due to the unique Minutes of the Regular Meeting of November 15, 2004 Page 3 of 5 conditions which prevented it from being finished in 2004. This action is not to be considered a precedent for future assessments Moved by Councilmember Riveness; seconded by Council member Hicks to approve the resolution as presented. 7 Ayes; Nays, None. Copy of resolution on file. Resolution-Variance #2004-65: 1305 Hillside Street (Doug Amy) Planning Director Hinzman stated that the applicant requests a 10 foot variance to the 20 foot rear yard setback requirement to enlarge a non-conforming garage and intensification of a non-conforming structure by adding the garage addition.

She stated that she supports a more thorough review of initial conditions to assist for future renewal considerations. Moved by Councilmember Moratzka; seconded by Councilmember Riveness to table the request until further clarification is provided on the applicant's application. 7 Ayes; Nays, None. Multiple Family Moratorium Update Planning Director Hinzman requested Council consideration of a report of findings and recommendations as they relate to the Multiple Family Moratorium Ordinance. The Planning Committee of the Council reviewed the following issues for further examination: 1. Require identification of ownership status (owner vs. rental) at the time of site plan and preliminary plat approval. Staff recommends amending the submittal requirements for both site plan approval and preliminary plat approval to require identification of use of any multiple family building as either owner-occupied or rental. Staff would in turn identify the ownership status in the staff report 2. Examine the impact of ownership status on parking (is more parking need for rental units?) Changes to the parking ordinances are not recommended; staff has monitored parking at a number of multiple family/apartment complexes throughout the city. It appears as if in some older buildings, parking did not meet current standards and in other buildings, there is enough parking, yet residents choose to park on street. Minutes of the Regular Meeting of November 15, 2004 Page 4 of 5 3. Ensure long-term maintenance of common facilities and buildings. Staff recommends amending both site plan and preliminary plat requirements to include language establishing an association or covenants to ensure long- term maintenance of common facilities. Staff has included this language as a condition for all multiple family approvals in the last 2-3 years. Councilmember Yandrasits questioned how requiring identification of ownership status is different than what is currently done. Hinzman stated that the City is limited in the amount of power it has to actually control ownership status. Council member Moratzka stated a desire to have the applicant on record as to the type of ownership status that is being proposed. There was discussion over association membership and parking requirements. Mayor Werner suggested that parking should be reviewed during the winter months. Request for Certificate of Satisfaction-Millard Avenue, Inc. HRA Director Grossman stated that Ed Rymer of Millard Avenue, Inc. is requesting job credit for payroll paid to staffing agencies which provide workers for them. In the past, the city has used the last four quarters of a business' MDES reports to document the amount of wages paid. This request varies from past practice. Grossman stated that an attorney who provides the City and HRA with business subsidy advice has said that this is a policy issue to be decided by the Council. The Minnesota Department of Employment and Economic Development counts agency employees to meet job criteria for their economic development programs. Staff recommends that the policy be modified to accept payroll which is paid to staffing agencies be counted for a business' payroll credit requirement before approving the certificate. There was discussion on the number and status of the jobs created and whether a staffing agency can be used to give payroll credit. Grossman stated that Millard Ave., Inc. has created the 20 jobs as required by the business subsidy law. Moved by Councilmember Hicks, seconded by Councilmember Hazlet to approve the request for certificate of satisfaction as requested. Roll Call Vote was taken. Ayes: Councilmembers Hazlet, Hicks, and Mayor Werner Nays: Councilmembers Moratzka, Riveness, Schultz, and Yandrasits Motion fails. Resolution-Final Plat #2004-61: Wallin 12th Addition Council member Schultz questioned who is responsible for the maintenance of the pond. Planning Director Hinzman stated that homeowner's associations are responsible. Moved by Councilmember Schultz, seconded by Councilmember Yandrasits to approve the resolution as presented. 7 Ayes; Nays, none. Copy of resolution on file. Request Waiver of City Fees for YMCA Project City Administrator Osberg requested approval to waive City fees associated with construction with the YMCA. Those fees include park dedication, WAC, SAC, platting, etc. They do not include fees that are due another agency, such as Metropolitan Council. Minutes of the Regular Meeting of November 15, 2004 Page 5 of 5 Moved by Councilmember Riveness, seconded by Councilmember Hazlet to approve the waiver of fees as requested. 7 Ayes; Nays, none. Assignment of Different Job Title for Administrative Assistant/City Clerk City Administrator Osberg requested consideration of changing the title of Administrative Assistant/City Clerk to Assistant City Administrator, which is more consistent with the jobs duties. Moved by Councilmember Schultz, seconded by Councilmember Moratzka to approve the job title change as requested. 7 Ayes; Nays, none. Comments from Audience: Jackie Boler, 402 West yth Street, invited the public to the HPC meeting on Tuesday, November 16 at 7:00 p.m. Ed Rymer, owner of Millard Avenue, Inc., attempted to explain the purpose behind the use of a staffing agency. Moved by Councilmember Yandrasits, seconded by Councilmember Moratzka to recommend that this issue be referred to a committee for further discussion. 7 Ayes; Nays, none. Michael St. John, 308 9th Street West, requested assistance from the City regarding littering and parking in front of his house during football games. Harry Borg, Cottage Grove, questioned the City's role in providing information and neighborhood meetings regarding City projects. Public Works Director Montgomery stated that information is distributed weekly to the neighborhoods in special mailboxes and the information is posted on the City's website.

HASTINGS NDV 1 ;:; 2004 NOV 1 p POLICE DEPARTMENT MEMO FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Mayor Mike Wemer Hastings City Council Members City Administrator Dave Osb~ Chief Mike McMenomy 11 i./ November 19, 2004 Dorothy Johnson Retirement Notice TO: Please be advised that I have received a written notice of intent to retire from Dorothy Johnson who has been a valued 28 year employee as one of our clerical staff. See attached letter. Dorothy's intent to retire will pe effective March 151, 2005. In regards to replacing Dorothy's full time position we currently have two full time clerical and three part time clerical positions so it is my intention to coordinate with our three part time people and see if any of them would be interested in moving into this full time clerical position. You will notice in Dorothy's notice of retirement letter she indicated a willingness and desire to possibly come back and work in a part time capacity as a clerical person for the police department. In the best case scenario one of the current part time people would move into Dorothy's full time position and Dorothy could be considered to move into this part time position, eliminating the need to conduct a hiring process for a part time position. Ifthat scenario does not work out then we would begin a hiring process to replace Dorothy's full time position. I will keep you informed as far as any new information I receive in regards to this clerical position transition. November 17, 2004 Memo to: Mike McMenomy, Chief of Police Dave Osberg, City Administrator This is to advise you that I wish to retire from full time employment with the city of Hastings effective March 1st, 2005, with my last day of actual work being March 1st, 2005. The date requested is approximately two weeks short of the four month advance notification required in order to remain eligible for City-paid health insurance as a non-union employee hired prior to January 01, 1993. In my situation, I would have only approximately 5 months of eligibility remaining before the qualifying age of Medicare. The reason for my request to terminate on the date specified is an increasing demand on my personal time, due to heath issues of my mother and some other personal concerns. At this time I would like to request consideration for me to be allowed to continue employment with the Police Department on a part time basis, after the required 30 day separation required by PERA after retirement. I have always enjoyed my work with the Hastings Police Department and I feel that I could continue to contribute as a valuable employee on a part-time basis. I also believe this could allow an easy transition and training period for a new employee. Consideration might be given as to whether a full time replacement would be needed for my position, or whether there would be a possibility of using part time positions or "job sharing" to cover the staffing needs. It appears that there are candidates for employment who are content to work as part time employees, and this seems to have worked out very well for the present staff. As stated earlier, I have very much enjoyed my years as an employee of the Hastings Police Department and the City of Hastings, and the many fellow employees who have been acquaintances and friends along the way. Thank you for the many good years and also for your consideration of my request for continued employment on a part time basis. ;J~"L~~ Dorothy JOh;dn MEMORANDUM I VI-4 I To: From: Date: Re: Mayor Werner and City Councilmembers Melanie Mesko Lee, Assistant City Administrator November 28, 2004 Accept Retirement Notice of Engineering Technician Andrea Gustafson Council Action Reauested: Accept the retirement notice of engineering technician Andrea Gustafson, effective April 8, 2005.

VI-7 MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Honorable Mayor and City Council members Dave Osberg, City Administrator December 2, 2004 2004 and 2005 Non-Union Compensation Schedule Adjustment Recommended City Council Action 2004 Non-Union Compensation Adjustment: It is the recommendation of the Administrative Committee that the City Council take action authorizing an adjustment of the non-union compensation schedule at the end of the work day on December 31, 2004 in amount that would equal a total adjustment equivalent to a 2.00% adjustment effective January 1, 2004 and 1.00% effective July 1, 2004. This would equal the 2004 compensation adjustment schedule that was effective for all four labor unions. 2005 Non-Union Compensation Adjustment: Staff would recommend that the City Council take action authorizing an adjustment of the non-union compensation schedule in an amount equal to 2.00% effective January 1, 2005 and 1.00 % effective July 1, 2005. Backaround Effective January 1, 2004 the non-union compensation schedule was adjusted by an amount equal to 2.5%. All four unions reached a settlement for 2004 that resulted in a compensation adjustment of 2.00% effective January 1, 2004 and July 1, 2004. At a meeting conducted on March 8, 2004, the Administrative Committee of the City Council agreed that an adjustment at the end of the year would be acceptable, thus the City Council is asked to take that action, with an effective date at the end of the work day on December 31, 2004. The City has reached 2005 settlements with the Police Officers and Local #49 Unions, with an adjustment of 2.00% effective January 1, 2005 and 1.00% effective July 1, 2005. Action by the City Council to approve the same compensation adjustment for the non-union employee compensation schedule at the meeting on December 6, 2004 would allow for implementation in 2005. This is a budgeted amount, based on the proposed budget also being considered at the December 6, 2004 City Council meeting. - ern!

Holmes - Fire Chief SUBJECT: Mutual Aid Agreement Renewals DATE: December 6,2004 Tbe City of Hastings receives and provides mutual aid for emergency response with our neighboring communities. Recent use of mutual aid has included several ambulance responses and fires at the Hastings Inn and Ashland Marathon Oil Refinery. Continuing mutual aid with our neighbors is important for the allowance of depth within our service as well as planning for major events. Currently two mutual aid agreements are in need of renewal- Cannon Falls and Apple Valley, Lakeville and Farmington (ALF) Ambulance Services. City Attorney Shawn Moynihan has reviewed both agreements and has no concerns regarding their content. Requested Action: Approve agreement renewal for EMS mutual aid with Cannon Falls and ALF Ambulance Services. Enclosures: Proposed Mutual Aid Agreement ALF Ambulance Service Proposed Mutual Aid Agreement Cannon Falls Ambulance Service FIRE SUPPRESSION FIRE EDUCATION FIRE PREVENTION AMBULANCE SERVICE City of Cannon Falls Ambulance 306 WEST MILL STREET CANNON FALLS, MN 55009 (507) 263-2278 AMBULANCE SERVICE MUTUAL AID AGREEMENT By this Agreement, the City of Cannon Falls Ambulance Service and the Hastings Ambulance Service, being licensed life support transportation services in the State of Minnesota, agree to provide mutual assistance and back-up coverage for each other whenever one service cannot adequately respond to requests for service in its primary service area. For purposes of this Agreement, the "requesting party" refers to the ambulance service requesting back up and the "responding party" refers to the ambulance service providing the back-up. Both parties agree to perform according to mutually agreeable triage, treatment and transfer guidelines. The requesting party will be in command and control of the ambulance(s) and attendants dispatched pursuant to this agreement, at the emergency scene. Assistance provided will be based upon availability of staff and vehicle(s) at the time of the request and will not supersede the need for an ambulance in the responding party's area. The decision by the responding party regarding availability will be final. No party to this Agreement, nor any officer or employee of any party, shall be liable to any other party or person on account of failure of any party to this Agreement to furnish life support transportation in response to a call for assistance. Each party shall be responsible for its own personnel, equipment and for injuries or death related to any such personnel, or damage to any such equipment, except that unused equipment provided by the responding party shall be returned to the responding party by the requesting party when circumstances permit this to be done. Responding personnel shall be deemed to be performing their regular duties for the responding party. Insurance coverage and financial compensation shall be the responsibility of the responding party. Each party waives the right to sue any other party for any worker's compensation benefits paid to its employee or volunteer, even if the injuries were caused wholly or partially by the negligence of any other party, its officers, employees or volunteers. The requesting party agrees to indemnify and defend the responding party against any claims brought, or actions filed, against the responding party or any officers, employees or volunteers of the responding party for the injury or death to any third person, or persons, or damage to property of third persons, arising out of the performance and provision of assistants in responding to request for assistance by the requesting party pursuant to this Agreement. The intent of the indemnification requirement of this section is to impose on each requesting party a limited duty to defend and indemnify any responding party for claims arising within the requesting party's jurisdiction subject to the liability limits under Chapter 466, Minnesota Statutes. The purpose of creating these reciprocal duties to defend and indemnify is to simplify the defense of liability claims against multiple defendants from a single occurrence to be defended by a single attorney. Under no circumstances, however, shall a party be required to pay on behalf of itself and other parties, any amounts in excess of the liability limits established in Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 466, applicable to only one (I) party. The limits ofliability for some, or all parties, may not be added together to increase the maximum statutory liability limits for any party. This Agreement shall become effective upon signing by both parties. If either service wishes to discontinue this Mutual Aid Agreement, the other party must be notified, in writing, sixty (60) days in advance. We, the undersigned, agree to abide by the terms of this Mutual Aid Agreement.

It has become quite expensive to have this coverage and at this time the number of claims does not outweigh the expense of the insurance premium. Therefore, staff recommends dropping this coverage to save money; in order to do so a resolution must be passed by the City council. Council Action Pass the resolution rescinding the No Fault Back Up Sewer coverage.

VlI-l MEMO To: From: Subject: Date: Enclosed are the budget figures as approved by the Finance Committee of the council. Honorable Mayor and City Council members Lori A. Webster, Finance Director 2005 Proposed Budget and Preliminary Tax Levy - Public Hearing November 29, 2004 Original Proposed Budget Budget Difference Difference 2004 2005 % General Levy $ 5,833,713 $ 6,351,583 $ 517,870 1.08877 Debt Levy $ 1,670,000 $ 2,260,000 $ 590,000 1.35329 Total Levy $ 7,503,713 $ 8,611,583 $ 1,107,870 1.14764 Local gov't aid $ 690,498 $ 195,530 $ (494,968) (0.71683) Total $ 8,194,211 $ 8,807,113 $ 612,902 0.07480 The tax capacity rate will be slightly higher then 2004. The goal was to have a zero increase in the tax capacity rate for 2005. The city rate has changed by .07480%. This means that if the market value on residential property were the same - the city portion of the taxes would increase slightly, but basically remain the same as last year. I have included some data for your information, along with a few summary excerpts from the 2005 budget. Also included is the presentation that will be presented Monday night. No action will be needed by the council for this public hearing. The budget will then be back on the council agenda on Monday, December 20,2004 for adoption and final approval. In the meantime, if you should have any questions please feel free to contact me. MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Honorable Mayor and City Council members Dave Osberg, City Administrator December 2, 2004 2005 Budget The City Council meeting on Monday December 6, 2004 will include the required truth in taxation public hearing and discussion of the proposed 2005 Budget. No action will be taken. As of this writing, City Staff has not received any comments or questions regarding the distribution of the truth in taxation notices to property owners. At the City Council meeting on September 7, 2004 action was taken that included a Proposed General Levy of $6,481 ,082 which combined with a debt levy of $$2,260,000 resulted in a proposed Total Levy of $8,741,082. The City Council will note in the attached handouts that the proposed levy is actually a bit less than that which was adopted in September, with a General levy of $6,351 ,583, combined with the same debt service levy of $2,260,000 results in a proposed Total levy of $8,611 ,583. While this does result in an increase ofthe total levy dollars collected, the total levy, combined with the increase in the City's total market value results in slight decrease in the City's tax rate. Staff has included a copy of a memorandum dated October 6, 2004 that was distributed to the City Council providing information regarding the proposed budget, major capital expenditures and personnel changes proposed. The City Council will note that in the memorandum it was recommended that action be taken by the City Council, (which was completed at the September 7, 2004 meeting,) adopting a levy that would result in an increase in the tax rate by about 2.00%. Staff illustrated in that memorandum actions that could be taken to allow for adoption of a budget and levy that would result in a 0% increase. You will note in the memorandum, that with an increase in revenue projections, budget cuts from the original submittal by Department Heads, and use of funds on hand, a budget and levy could be approved that results in the 0% increase in the property tax rate. The 2005 Proposed Budget incorporates those changes and will be reviewed during the meeting on December 6, 2004 in anticipation of its adoption at the re ular City C uncil meeting on December 20, 2004. / MEMORANDUM TO: FROM: DATE: SUBJECT: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Dave Osberg, City Administrator October 6, 2004 2005 Budget At the City Council meeting on Tuesday September 7, 2004 action was taken to set the 2005 Preliminary Levy and Budget. The recommendation from the Finance Committee brought forward that night suggested the adoption of a preliminary levy that would result in an increase in the City's tax rate of 2.00%. There was additional encouragement to lower the tax rate as much as possible without cutting too deep into the needs of the City Departments. Throughout the last several weeks, Interim Finance Director Char Stark and I have conducted a variety of meetings with Department Heads in an effort to reduce further the 2005 Budget, and to explore further the opportunitiesi'ur additional revenues. There are several documents attached that illustrated the current results of our meetings as a Staff, to assure a balanced 2005 Budget. Document" A" Char Stark prepared this document illustrating at the top the amount of $660,000 that needed to be cut (or increased revenue) to achieve a 0% increase in the tax rate. The next line illustrates cuts (increased revenue) needed to allow for an increase of 2.00% in the preliminary levy ($510,000) As the Council will note upon further review of this document, the meetings with Department Heads, resulted in an increase in revenues amounting to $403,919, as described further in each of the line items. Cuts in the amount of $119,731 are listed next, which combined with the revenues, result in a total change in the budget amounting to $523,650 which exceeds the amount needed to assure a balanced budget with a 2.00% adjustment in the tax rate. ($510,000). Staff would recommend that the City Council adopt a budget at the December City Council meetings, that further incorporates the use of fund balances to allow for a 0% increase in the tax rate. The use of those fund balances is listed toward the end of Document "A". Thus, by including the additional revenues $403.919: actual budget reductions; $119.731: combined with use of fund balance: $137.000 results in the needed adjustments $660.650 to allow for a 0% increase in the tax rate. Document "B" Those capital outlay items that remain in the budget are listed in Document B. You will also see notation of those items that were once included, but now have been proposed for elimination. Document "C" 2005 Personnel requests are shown on Document C; all of which currently remain in the 2005 Budget as proposed for adoption in December. The City Council meeting on December 6 will include the public hearing needed for the truth in taxation requirements, with the actual adoption of the budget and preliminary levy scheduled for December 20, 2004. Should the City Council have any questions, wish to address any of these items, or have objections to the proposed budget, please feel free to contact me to discuss. With the hard work of the Department Heads, and in particular Interim Finance Director Char Stark, it is my belief that we have presented a very sound and frugal budget, all while recognizing the importance of keeping the tax rate at a reasonable level for such a growing community. /I. - - DEPARTMENTS Cuts to be made to achieve no increase General General General Arena Arena General General General Police Fire Fire Fire Fire Parks Capital ERF-Arena ERF-Streets All funds ERF-Fire Cuts to be made to achieve Preliminary Levy increase of 2% Added PERA Aid Levy Certified for 2005 Added bonding costs for Trac bus storage or ERF fund in capital Added revenues for Engineering costs Bond for parking lot Arena 6' II ir ."

REQUEST Dan Rother of Rother Photography has requested a Type II Home Occupation License for his business at 1505 Brooke Court. The City Council reviewed this item attheir November 15th meeting, and tabled the request due to questions regarding answers on the original questionnaire. RECOMMENDED ACTION The Planning Commission reviewed this at their November 8th meeting and unanimously recommended approval. Staff recommends approval of the attached resolution, ATTACHMENTS . Location Map . Application . Questionnaire . Photo of driveway/parking area .

Res. U-I- Urb. Res. U-I- Urb. Res. R-1 - Low Dens Res U-I- Urb. Res. Existing Condition The existing home was constructed in 1989. It is located on the corner of Brooke Lane and Brooke Court, with the driveway/parking area coming off of Brooke Lane. History In late 1983, the City Council granted Mr. Rother a home occupation license for a photography studio at 1343 19th St W. In 1989, Mr. Rother received approval from the City Council to move the business to a new home he was planning on constructing at 1505 Brooke Court. Mr. Rother has held a home occupation license since that time. Staff has no records of any complaints being filed regarding Mr. Rother's business in the past five years. HOME OCCUPATION REVIEW Outside Employees The applicant has indicated that he has two employees that work 24-35 hours per week, plus in the summer he employs a high school student to work about 20 hours per week. Access and Parking Mr. Rother's home is located on a corner lot, with the driveway coming out to Brooke Lane. road. Enclosed with the Staff report is a picture of Mr. Rother's driveway, which serves as the off-street parking for his business. He indicates that it is wide enough for three cars, and at least 2 cars deep. Based on the answers provided in this questionnaire, the applicant indicates that two to three customers visit the business at a time. Based on the number of customers indicated as well as employees, it is conceivable that at some point there could be three employee vehicles and three customer vehicles at the home at the same time. The driveway is sufficient to accommodate these vehicles, provided any vehicles for the home's occupants are not parked in the driveway as well. Dan Rother - Rother Photography - Type II Home Occupation Request #2004-64 City Council Memo - December 6. 2004 Page 3 Signage There is an existing 2 sq. ft. sign above the studio entrance. This is in compliance with code. No additional signage is permitted. Handicap Accessibility The Planning Commission asked about what requirements for accessibility applied to this business. In discussing the matter with the Building Official, he stated that at this point, because there was no modifications to the structure/remodeling for the business, there was little that could be required to be done. If Mr. Rother were to apply for a building permit to expand the business within his home, at that time the Building Official would review the plans for accessibility compliance. Questionnaire Staff visited Mr. Rother's home and studio on November 29th to view the area used for the home occupation. The two concerns raised at the November 15th meeting involved the use of equipment not normally found in a home, and whether any remodeling was needed to operate the business. In Staffs opinion, the question about remodeling/changes to the home is geared at new home occupations to help us determine the extent of the home occupation as well as to educate applicants on the need for building permits for any work to the home. Mr. Rother's home occupation for this location was approved prior to him constructing the home, so the Planning Commission and City Council at that time were aware of the plans for the business. The area currently is made up of a reception area (a photo of which is included in the packet), an office, a dressing/bathroom, a workroom (where finished photo orders are assembled), a photo viewing room, and the photo studio. All areas, except the studio, are finished with a very residential feel. The studio area has a finished concrete floor, and steps down to allow for a higher ceiling to accommodate the backgrounds and lights. The area could easily be finished or used as storage were the home no longer used for photography. As for equipment, the photo studio has backgrounds mounted on the ceiling (they roll down much the way a window shade would) and lights. All this equipment is located within the 'studio room' where pictures are taken. The only other equipment for the business are several computers, printers, and a large viewing screen for reviewing proofs, which is mounted on the wall much like a flat panel TV would be. There is no photo processing done in the home - and never has been at this site. All photos taken are digital and sent out for actual processing, and any photos printed on site are done so on a printer. Fire Inspection Because Mr. Rother's business has outside employees, a fire safety inspection is required to be done prior to issuance of the business license. Fire Marshall Mike Schutt completed his inspection on November 30,2004, and had no issues or conditions with the situation. Dan Rother - Rother Photography - Type II Home Occupation Request #2004-64 City Council Memo - December 6, 2004 Page 4 Comments from Neighbors Notice of the home occupation license review was sent October 2ih. Staff was contacted by Michael White, who resides at 1576 River Heights Court. Mr. White stated that he was unable to attend Monday's meeting, and that he wanted to state his opposition to a home occupation license being granted forthis business. Mr. White's reasons for opposition were the amount of traffic generated by the business, the vehicles visiting the business parking on the street, and that this type of business shouldn't be encouraged in residential areas. Mr. Rother forwarded an email to City Staff that he received from a neighbor regarding his business (the emailertried sending it to me but misspelled my name in the address). Mr. Biskupski lives across the street on Brooke Lane and noted that he had no issues with the business. His email is included with the Staff report. Staff has not received any other comments from neighbors, and no one attended the Planning Commission meeting to speak on the request.

December 2, 2004 VIII-B-2 TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: John Grossman, HRA Director RE: Downtown riverfront redevelopment - TIF options The HRA recommended a tax increment district, a master redevelopment plan and a new master agreement with Sherman Associates to the City Council on October 18, 2004. Council tabled consideration of the tax increment district and referred it to the Council Planning Committee for further study of its size and the uses of increment. Council extended the existing agreement with Sherman Associates to January 20, 2004. The Planning Committee gave staff, legal and financial consultants direction to prepare four options and their estimated redevelopment consequences for review. The options are described in the attached memo from Ehlers Associates. The options assume Sherman Associates will build a condominium and a mixed use building on block 1. The broad differences between the TIF options are as follows. The two sets of attached maps also show options A, B and C in terms of developments and improvements, and in ten:ns of parcels included in a TIF district. Option A. District of blocks I and 16 with a restaurant. Option B. District of blocks 1 and 16 with public improvements. Option C. District of blocks 1,16 and the north halfof2 with a restaurant and public improvements. Option D. No district, no restaurant, no public improvements. At the Planning committee meeting on November 29, Committee members Moratzka and Elling Schultz discussed all the options and voted to recommend Option C. Councilmember Hazlet was unable to attend; Councilmember Yandrasits attended. If Council is ready, these actions will move the process forward. 1. Give direction to staff whether the Council wishes to proceed with establishment of a tax increment district for downtown redevelop- ment and indicate the desired boundaries for the district. The TIF maps for Options A & B or C show appropriate boundaries. 2. If Council chooses a tax increment district, Council should call, on December 6th (this meeting) or December 20th, a public hearing on the district for the Council Meeting of February 7,2005. . EHLERS & ASSOCIATES INC 0 To: :E From: W Subject: :E Date: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council Jessica Cook and Jim Prosser, Ehlers & Associates Potential Tax Increment District for Downtown Redevelopment December 1, 2004 Introduction Ehlers & Associates has been requested to provide infonnation in response to questions, concerns and request for additional infonnation raised by the Hastings City Council and the Planning Committee. The questions, concerns and infonnation request includes the following: . The tax increment district for the downtown redevelopment, as initially proposed, included too many parcels. . The Planning Committee requested more specific infonnation about how tax increment would be used. . Potential problems with approving a tax increment district without knowing which developer(s) might receive assistance and for what purposes. In order to respond to these issues, Ehlers & Associates has prepared an analysis of the increment potentially generated by specific parcels, and the costs of desired improvements. Four options have been prepared as a basis for establishing priorities for the use of tax increment. The Planning Committee has reviewed the options and is recommending Option C. The policy discussion for the City Council and HRA will be how to establish a district that on one hand generates sufficient increment to accomplish the City's goals, and on the other hand making the tax increment district as limited as possible. If the Council proceeds with the establishment of a tax increment district, the soonest it could occur is on February 7,2005. "--.------------ - --..--------------- ,.-.----- .. --------... _J 3060 Centre Pointe Drive Roseville, MN 55113-\\ 05 (65\) 697-8546 Fax; (65\) 697-8555 jcook@ehlers-inc.com http://www.ehlers-inc.com Public Imorovements Sherman Associates has prepared a refined concept plan for the redevelopment site. The concept plan responds to the direction ITom the City for features to achieve the goals established for the redevelopment and to make the redevelopment consistent with the City's Heart of Hastings Plan. Two of these features include certain public improvements (i.e. streetscape, landscape, and a river esplanade) and a restaurant in the redevelopment area. The developer is requesting financial assistance to fund, a portion of these features. These improvements, and their estimated cost (based on developer and engineering estimates) are as follows: ImprovementlDeveIopment Cost Notes on Cost . Restaurant and Banquet Facility $1,177,250 Financing gap . Retail along 2nd Street on Block I $ 295,600 Financing gap . Gazebo with public restrooms $ 771,600 Total cost for . Esplanade and landscaped esplanade adjacent to turnarounds Blocks 1,2,3, and 4 . Trail east of Block 1 . Coordinated Streetscaping $1,209,400 Includes Sibley, - . Street Reconstruction Ramsey, and Tyler TOTAL $3,453,850* * In addition to this total, the City engineer estimates that $424,000 of stormwater improvements should be installed at the time BIock 1 is developed. The stormwater upgrades are required whether or not redevelopment proceeds and are to be paid with City funds under its normal stormwater financing policy. Summary of Ootions for Sherman Redevelooment Four different options have been prepared for discussion. Each option has a different combination of parcels and type of development features. The options are detailed in Appendix A. To summarize, a tax increment district on Blocks 1 and 16 will allow the City to achieve either a 5,000 square foot restaurant and a 5,000 square foot banquet facility (Option A) or the installation of rivernont improvements such as the proposed esplanade, gazebo with public restrooms, and landscaped turnarounds at the ends of Sibley and Ramsey that would serve as access points for the public to the river (Option B). To complete all of the desired improvements and construct a restaurant, the tax increment district would need to include Blocks I and 16 and the north half of Block 2 (Option C). Ehlers & Associates, Inc. 2 At least 90% ofthe tax increment must be used to correct the blighting conditions that caused the district to qualifY as a redevelopment district. In each of the Options A, B, and C, tax increment would be used for land acquisition and/or site preparation on Block I, and payments for special assessments for street reconstruction and streetscaping throughout the district. It should be noted that under the terms of an existing agreement with the designated developer (Sherman Associates), the City is precluded ITom providing assistance to other developers within this district. Special assessments can be used to finance street reconstruction, sidewalks, and streetscaping. Assessments are not recommended as a means for paying for area-wide improvements such as the trail, public restroorns, and esplanade. Blocks 3 and 4 The City may choose to include Blocks 3 and 4 in the tax increment district if it reasonably expects development to occur within the next five years, and expects that the City will construct public parking or other improvements as part of that development. Blocks 3 and 4 do not have to be part of a tax increment district to facilitate the proposed Sherman redevelopment project. Blocks 3 and 4 may be added to the proposed district for up to five years. Blackwoods Restaurant Appendix B explores the construction of a 24,000 square foot restaurant and banquet facility, such as a Blackwoods Restaurant. Based upon projections in the GV A Marquette market study and information gathered by Sherman Associates ITom negotiations with Blackwoods, a 24,000 square foot restaurant would have an estimated financial gap of $10,926,000. With City assistance in the form of tax increment and a land write-down, the gap could he reduced to $8,400,000. There would be no project revenues available for public improvements such as street and utility reconstruction, streetscaping, or an esplanade and gazebo with public restroorns. Next SteDs If the City Council wishes to proceed with the establishment of a tax increment district, the next steps would be as follows: 1. It is the opinion ofthe HRA's attorney that the notification and public hearing process should start over. Therefore, the City needs to call for a public hearing to consider the proposed tax increment district. 2. The School District and Dakota County receive a copy of the draft tax increment plan and are given 30 days to provide comments on the plan. 3. The HRA considers the proposed tax increment district. 4. The Planning Commission determines whether the proposed district is consistent with the City's Comprehensive Plan. Ehlers & Associates, Inc, 3 5. The City conducts a public hearing and approves the establishment of the tax increment district. A proposed schedule to accomplish these steps is attached as Appendix C. The soonest a district could be established is February 7,2005. A form of resolution calling for the public hearing is attached as Appendix D. At its option, the Council may call for the public hearing on December 6 or December 20,2005. Ehlers & Associates, Inc. 4 Appendix A ODtions Ehlers has explored four options for financing the restaurant and improvements. The assumptions for all of the options are as follows: . The development costs are estimates ftom Sherman Associates. . The public improvement costs are estimates ftom Sherman Associates, the City engineer, and consulting engineers. . When the HRA sells the land to a private developer, it will be required to repay the CDBG program a portion ofthe CDBG funds used to acquire the sites. . Street, utility, and sidewaJk improvements adjacent to the developed sites will be assessed to all adjacent landowners. . The cost ofthe esplanade and gazebo may be voluntarily assessed to a developer. . Block 1 will be developed with a 28-unit condo building, a mixed use building containing 22 condominiuros and 5,000 square- feet of retail, and a 5,000 square foot restaurant with 5,000 square root banquet facility. . The north half of Block 2 will be developed with 35 condominiuros valued at $275,000 each. . The developers of Block 2 will not be requesting tax increment for the condominium project, but will not be able to afford to be voluntarily assessed for the esplanade and gazebo. . The esplanade and gazebo are not nF eligible costs. . Block 16 is used for overflow parking. No buildings are constructed on Block 16. Ehlers & Associates, Inc. 5 ODtion A: TIF District on Blocks 1 and 16 with a restaurant (no esplanade/gazebo) . The tax increment district is comprised of the first phase of the Sherman development on Blocks I and 16. . The included improvements are: ,f Restaurant and banquet facility ,f Street and utility reconstruction of Tyler ,f Streetscaping along Tyler and 2nd Street ,f Parking on Block 16 ,f Public trail . The financial analysis below shows that the project has a gap of about $419,500, or 2% of total project costs. The gap can be filled by refining the development costs, increasing the sales prices of the units and/or obtaining grant funds. !I!n Sou rees ~ 28 condos 9,960,000 28 Condo Sales 9,960,000 Mixed Use retail and 22 condos 6,030,600 Mixed use developer financing/equity 5,735,000 (295,600) Restaurant 2,567,250 Restaurant Financing/Equity 1,390,000 (1,177,250) Public Improvements - Block 1 400,110 Assessment for public improvements 400,110 CDSG Land Repayment 195,100 (195,100) Land 1,426,000 Land write-down 1,426,000 Trail - 13,800 (13,800) Block 16 Parking 100,000 (100,000) Tax Increment 1,362,295 1,362,295 $ 20,592,850 $ 20,273,405 (419,455 Improvements assessed for Tyler Street reconstruction, streetscaping and lighting for west side of Tyler $ 107,110 .

The financial analysis below shows that there is a financial gap of about $445,830. The gap can be filled by refining the development costs, increasing the sales prices of the condos, obtaining grant funds, and/or reducing the scale of public improvements.

Under Option C, tax increment would be used to pay for land acquisition and site preparation on Block I, public parking on block 16 and special assessments. Ehlers & Associates, Inc. 8 Ootion D: No TIF District What happens if the HRA and City do not establish a tax increment district? Can the improvements be assessed to downtown property owners? In order to assess the cost of an improvement, the City has to demonstrate that it benefits a landowner by increasing his property value. The City will have difficulty making the case that the esplanade and gazebo benefit all property downtown. Likewise, fully assessing the abutting properties for the esplanade is problematic. The abutting properties are likely to contest being fully assessed for area wide improvements. If assessments are too high, the development will become financially infeasible. In conclusion, we do not recommend using special assessments as the primary means of financing the esplanade, traffic turnarounds, gazebo, and trail. Street and sidewalk reconstruction and streetscaping may be assessed to adjoining property owners. If the proposed Sherman development proceeds without tax increment and the BRA is wiI1ing to consider a land write-down, the developer will be able to construct the condominium building, the mixed-use building, and complete the public improvements in and around Block 1. Ehlers & Associates, Inc. 9 Appendix B Blackwoods Restaurant Scenario The community has been discussing the option of attracting a large restaurant and banquet facility downtown., Sherman Associates has had conversations with Blackwoods Restaurant, which has proposed a 24,000 square foot building. The parking requirement for Blackwoods would be approximately 550 stalls. Blackwoods has indicated that they expect a developer to construct the building, install the equipment, and provide working cashflow for six months. Blackwoods does not intend to be an equity partner in the building. Following is an estimate of the sources and used of a Blackwoods Restaurant based on estimates rrom the GV A Marquette market study and information rrom Sherman Associates derived rrom conversations with two restaurant operators, including Blackwoods. It assumes that the City provides the land at no cost and puts the restaurant in a tax increment district. It also assumes the City provides public parking.

Without City assistance, a Blackwoods restaurant would have a $10,926,000 financing gap. No project revenues would be available for public improvements such as street and utility reconstruction, streetscaping, or an esplanade and gazebo with public restroorns.

TYLER ST RAMSEY ST 0 I ~ I I I VERMILLION ST December 6, 2004 TO: The Honorable Mayor and City Council FROM: John Grossman, HRA Director RE: Reconsideration of Request for Certification, Millard Ave. Inc. At the Council meeting of November 15, 2004, the request was moved but a majority voted against. The matter was then referred to the Planning Committee for review. The Planning Committee met with Mr. Rymer on December 6, and recommends that the matter be reconsidered at the Council Meeting tonight. Staff asks that Council add this item to the agenda under Planning. In order to be reconsidered a council member voting in the majority, (voting no at the November 15 meeting) must make a motion to reconsider. Any council member may second. If this motion is approved, the original motion from the November 15 meeting is back on the table in the same form as before the vote was taken: "Moved by Councilmember Hicks and seconded by Councilmember Hazlet to approve the request for certificate of satisfaction as requested." Approving the certificate means that the labor costs paid by Quality One to staffing agencies will be counted toward the land credits. The land credit calculation is based on the cost of employees, not on the number of employees. With the agency labor costs, Mr. Rymer meets the conditions for a certificate; without them he is $60,000 short. He has already met the state's requirement to create 20 jobs within 2 years at no less than $10.00 an hour. Quality One employs over 100. In addition they have an average of 15 workers at anyone time provided by staffing agencies. This is the first time a company has submitted labor costs paid to staffing agencies for a land credit. On November 15, some Councilmembers were not comfortable that these workers met the intent of the City program, and asked if they were temporary or permanent. Some additional information was provided at the committee meeting. Scott Sodergren, owner of Express Personnel Services in Red Wing, provided information and answered questions about staffing agencies. Some main points provided by Mr. Sodergren and Mr. Rymer: . Wide spread use of staffing agencies is fairly recent development. Hastings is not the only City whose business assistance or industrial development programs did not anticipate or provide criteria for their use. . Staffing agencies are used by companies to recruit, screen and provide workers. They act as an extension of the company's human resources staff. This is the case in respect to Quality One. . The agency provides workers to Quality One for 90 days. They are then hired, or if not, reassigned by the agency to another company. They work 40 hours a week. They are "on probation" with the expectation that they will be hired if they are satisfactory. Quality One hires about 75 to 80 percent of the workers provided. . The agency can also provide temporary workers if requested. Temporaries work for a period of time without the expectation of being hired. They have chosen temporary work. The Quality One labor costs submitted do not include temporaries. The committee recommends that the Council consider two separate actions: 1. Approval of the certificate for Millard Ave, Inc. as submitted. 2. Direct staff to ask the Economic Development Commission to define criteria for the use of staffing agency costs and bring a recommendation to Council. The analysis provided in the staff report on Millard Inc. certification from the November 15 Council meeting has not changed. The report is attached. Mr. Rymer will be at the meeting if Councilmembers wish to ask him any questions. VIII-B-4 November 9, 2004 TO: The Honorable Mayor and Council FROM: John Grossman HRA Director RE: Request for Certificate, Millard Ave, Inc. Background In 2002 the Council approved the sale of 5.34 acres for $5.00 to Millard Avenue, Inc., owned by Edward Rymer, under the terms of the City's Land Credit Program. The property abuts Quality One Woodworking. The development agreement specifies: . The unpaid value of the land, deferred for five years, is $315,440. At the end of five years, the city's land credits will be calculated and if they do not exceed the deferred value, the owner will pay that to the City or the balance will be assessed to the land. . The land would be used for expansion of Quality One, specifically a 72,000 s.f. building addition. . Quality One would generate 20 new jobs at no less than $10/hr. in two years or repay a prorated value of the deferred balance. . Quality One will remain in business in Hastings for five years or repay a prorated value of the deferred balance. Business Subsidy Goals Construction of the addition and site improvements have been completed and a Certificate of Occupancy has been issued. Qaulity One increased the number of its employees by 20 at no less than $10/hr., reported to the State in March, 2004. Millard Ave. Inc. met its Business Subsidy job goals. All Business Subsidy goals will be satisfied if Quality One remains in business in Hastings until September 30,2007. City land credits and certification The owner can ask the City to calculate the balance due before the five years are up, and record a certificate reducing the balance. Mr. Rymer has provided documentation to support the following calculations. A. Construction Credit: County Assessor's 2004 estimated market value of the building and improvements: $1,021,000 divided by 10 = credit of $102,100. B. Jobs Credit: Minn. Dept. of Economic Security (MDES) forms for last four quarters, wages paid to employees = credit of $153,077. C. Jobs Credit (agencies): Payroll records of payments by Quality One to three employment agencies to provide workers for last four quarters show, after deducting 20% agency overhead = credit of $68,418. These credits total $323,595, which exceeds the deferred land value of $315,440 by $8,155. There would not be a balance due under the land credit program if Council accepts the agency labor costs for land credits as described below. If council does not accept the agency labor costs, the credits are $60,263 less than the deferred value and if Mr. Rymer wanted certification now, he would have to pay this amount to the City. Jobs credit for staffing agency costs The agreement language specifies that the Jobs Credit is calculated from the annual payroll in the previous twelve-month period, paid by the tenant, Quality One. "The owner is to provide payroll records in such form as the City may require... For the purpose of determining the annual payroll, only gross wages paid to employees will be considered." Up to now staff has used the last four quarters of the business' MDES reports to document the amount of wages paid. Mr. Rymer has also provided the amounts Quality One paid to staffing agencies which provide workers for them. The agencies pay wages, payroll taxes and benefits and bill Quality One for those employees. Mr. Rymer's position (see letter) is that Quality One is paying the wages of persons working in Hastings and that cost should be included in the payroll calculation for land credits. These agencies provide human resources services including advertising, interviewing, qualifying and placing the workers in appropriate companies. This is not the same as temporary services. The employees work until hired by the company or relocated by the staffing agency. The number of agency employees working at Quality One averages 15 at any one time. Mr. Rymer tells me that about 75 to 80% of those workers become direct employees of Quality One after three months. Direction requested Staff asks Council to determine whether labor costs paid to staffmg agencies should be included for land credits. This is the first time agency employees have come up under the land credit program. This employment practice is becoming a common way of doing business, so the Council's decision would be a precedent. Robert Deike, the attorney who provides the HRA and City with business subsidy advice and documents, says that this is a Council decision, and is not covered by state law, because the land credit program is created by Council. The attached letter from DEED shows that the State counts agency employees to meet the job criteria of their economic development programs. Actions to authorize the certificate: 1) Adopt a motion that the developer or tenant's cost of wages, taxes, unemployment and benefits for agency employees working on the company property in Hastings can be included, as if they are direct employee costs, in the land credit program. 2) Authorize the execution of the attached Certificate by the Mayor and City Clerk. CERTIFICATE This Certificate is executed this _ day of , 2004, by the City of Hastings, Minnesota, a home rule charter city under the laws of the State of Minnesota (the "City").

Dear John: Per our conversation, this letter describes Quality One Woordwork's relationship with employment agencies. Employment agencies are an extension of our company (co-employer). They save Q-l both time and money as it relates to advertising, recruiting, and interviewing. Q-l increases productivity, quality and has fewer turnovers by allowing the employment agency to provide pre- qualified individuals. The employment agency will screen, interview, test, reference check, drug screen (if applicable), and conduct employer-specific orientations. The following is paid by Q-l through the employment agencies. FICA (Social Security and Medicare), FUTA (Federal Unemployment), SUTA (State Unemployment), Workman's Compensation, and Benefits. The employment agency reduces unemployment and worker compensation claims. . s, Ine. Edw r T.
