Background: The annual •Financial Report for the period ending December 31, 1992, has been completed by the Administrative Services Department. The audited Financial Report is not available at this time, due to the audit provision which requires Richfield's financial reports to be audited by Deloitte and Touche subsequent to April 15. As Council Members may be aware, the City receives a reduced audit fee in turn for approval for the Auditors to delay their audit work until after April 15. The audit is scheduled to begin April 19, 1993. The Richfield City Charter requires the Financial Report to be submitted to the City Council for fiscal year-end information by April 10 of each year. The report is submitted for official receipt at the March 22, 1993 City Council meeting. The attached summary report reflects the performance of the General Fund, Utility Funds, Recreation Fund and Liquor Fund. • Recommended Motion: Receive the unaudited 1992 Financial Report of the City. Basis of Recommendation: 1. City Charter provides that the Financial Report of the City be submitted to the City Council by April 10 of each year. 2. Audited financial reports for 1992 will not be available for several weeks. 3. The Administrative Services Department has just completed their financial reporting for 1992. Alternative Recommendation: 1. The City Council could request the staff to make a more detailed presentation of the unaudited 1992 Financial Report at this time or at a future Council Study Session. However, a detailed presentation of the audited report will be presented in the month of June 1993. Discussion/Decision Mode: The Financial Report should be formally accepted at the March 22, 1993 City Council meeting. Respectfully submitted, • Jame Prosser Cit nager JDP:cak FINANCIAL REPORT SUMMARY - 1992 ?-? The following is a summary of fund highlights for the General Fund, Utility Funds, Recreation Fund and Municipal Liquor Fund. A thorough audited report will be presented to the City Council as soon as it becomes available. General Fund C? J • Revenues Expenditures Net Transfers Increase (Decrease) to Fund Balance 12/31 Fund Balance 1992 Actual 11,853,740 11,388,799 (204,775) 260,166 $ 2,497,643 1992 Budget $11,383,115 11,544,315 161,200 $ 2,237,477 1991 Actual $11,704,642 11,938,423 173,542 (60,239) S 2,237,477 The General Fund of the City has a 1992 year-end fund balance of $2,497,643 as compared to $2,237,477 at year-end 1991. The General Fund performed very well in 1992 due to the receipt of $256,715 of unanticipated local government aid from the State of Minnesota, license and permit revenues exceeding budget, and interest rates exceeding expectations. In addition, all departments incurred expenditures that were less than budgeted. Legal charges incurred in 1992 were $54,000 lower than budgeted and an annual contribution to the PERA Police and Fire fund was not required. This contribution was budgeted at $100,000 in 1992. The General Fund transferred $145,000 to the HRA to cover airport expenditures and $365,000 to the Capital Improvement Fund to reimburse a portion of the acquisition cost of the Lampert Lumber building. The December 31, 1992 fund balance is designated to meet the subsequent year's expenses until collected in July of the next year and for antic local government aid from the State of Minnesota. has been established for the $265,715 excess LGA City Council direction. Water Utility Fund Revenues Expenses Net Transfers Net Income 12/31 Retained Earnings 1992 Actual $ 1,946,546 1,492,760 453,786 $ 4,686,864 for working capital property taxes are ipated reductions in A separate account payment pursuant to 1992 Budget $ 1,870,900 1,574,800 (20,000) 276,100 $ 4,376,178 1991 Actual $ 1,839,017 1,527,658 (20,b00) 291,359 $ 4,265,078 The Water Utility Fund experienced a stronger year from a financial perspective in 1992 compared to 1991. Net income for 1992 was $453,786 compared to $291,359 in 1991. This represents a 56% increase in net income. The stronger performance in 1992 is attributed to increased sales and decreased expenses. Operating revenues increased 7.2% in 1992 compared to 1991 and operating expenses decreased 2.3%, primarily due to decreases in maintenance and repair expenses, rents and leases, and professional services. At year-end 1992, retained earnings in the Water Fund totalled $4,686,864. The retained earnings and available cash in the Water Utility Fund are necessary to support capital improvements and maintenance of the operation. This cushion greatly reduces the !-C?- U • possibility that the City would be required to issue bonds to make emergency repairs, upgrades or maintenance in the water utility system. Constant renovations and repairs in the water treatment plant and the associated City wells are being undertaken by the City to maintain the high quality of water provided to Richfield citizens. In 1993, the water plant accelator is being replaced and generators will be acquired to expand plant capacity. In addition in 1992, $32,000 of retained earnings was transferred as a loan to the Expanded New Home Program. Sewer Utility Fund Revenues Expenses Net Transfers Net Income (Loss) 12/31 Retained Earnings 1992 Actual $ 1,615,758 1,765,785 (150,027) $ 2,869,233 1992 Budget $ 1,524,200 1,699,510 (175,310) $ 2,710,950 1991 Actual $ 1,451,557 1,540,899 (15,000) (104,342) $ 3,051,260 The Sanitary Sewer Fund showed a net loss in 1992 of $150',027. This is roughly $46,000 below the net income of 1991 but is $25,283 better than the 1992 revised budget. The decrease in the net income is tied directly to the increasing charges of Metropolitan Waste Control Commission (MWCC). MWCC rates for 1992 were $174,796 greater than they were in 1991. Rate increases for 1993 in the Sanitary Sewer Fund took into consideration the increases faced by the fund in payments to the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission. As with the Water Fund, $32,000 of the retained earnings was transferred to the Expanded New Home Program as a loan. Storm Sewer Utility Fund 1992 Actual Revenues $_ 703,285 Expenditures 548,356 Net Income 154,929 12/31 Retained Earnings $ 1,026,512 1992 Budget $ 655,000 532,900 122,100 $ 993,683 1991 Actual $ 696,699 451,053 245,646 $ 8'71, 583 Revenues for the Storm Sewer Utility Fund increased from $696,699 in 1991 to $703,285 in 1992. The increase in expenses in 1992 resulted primarily from a $26,655 loss on the sale of 7300 First Avenue and the accrual of a $31,350 call premium relating to the refinancing of the storm sewer utility revenue bonds. The refunding bonds will provide a $118,000 savings over the term of the bonds. Storm sewer rates were increased approximately 4% in 1993 to offset the cost of anticipated capital improvements in the storm sewer system.- Recreation-Fund 1992 Actual 1992 Budget 1991 Actual Revenues $ 1,678,160 $ 1,767,340 $ 1,194,662 Expenditures 1,624,890 1,667,970 1,095,980 Net Transfers 564,230 (35,770) Net Income 617,500 63,600 98,682 12/31 Retained Earnings $ 1,126,034 $ 570,814 $ 507,214 The 1991 actual figures include the golf course operations only. 9-3 • In 1992, the Recreation Fund was created and includes the golf course, ice arena and swimming pool operations. In 1992, the Golf Course Fund defeased the outstanding recreation revenue bonds using current revenues and a $600,000 transfer from the Special Revenue-Cable Fund. Net income for the golf course was $712,226 and net losses for the ice arena and swimming pool were $33,688 and $61,038 respectively. The swimming pool transferred $35,770 to the PIR Fund in accordance with the revised 1992 budget. Liquor Fund Revenues Expenditures Net Transfers Net Income (Loss) 12/31 Retained Earnings 1992 Actual $ 6,837,794 6,254,481 (539,200) 44,113 $ 2,167,113 1992 Budget $ 6,748,000 6,217,410 (539,200) (8,610) $ 2,114,390 1991 Actual $ 6,652,388 6,110,719 (428,190) 113,479 $ 2,123,000 Year-end revenues for 1992 reached $6,837,794 as compared to $6,652,388 in 1991. For 1992, customer volumes increased approximately 7,040 customers at Cedar and 5,300 customers at Lyndale. The volume of customers at Penn decreased approximately 3,600 customers, however higher dollar purchases per customer resulted in only a slight decrease in Penn's total sales. Gross margins in 1992 were consistent with 1991 and operating expenses were slightly higher due to increases in insurance expense and personal services. Transfers include $400,000 transferred to the Special Revenue Fund for Capital Improvements. Summary This financial summary represents the highlights of the overall financial report for the City of Richfield. Financial reports for all funds discussed are attached to this letter. A comprehensive review of the 1992 financial operations will be presented to the Council once the auditor's report has been completed. In general, 1992 was a favorable year for the City's financial operations. The General Fund performed extremely well due to unanticipated local government aid, however, a reduction in 1993 local government aid is expected. To offset these cuts, the City invested the unanticipated aid in a reserve fund to be used at City Council direction. The steady increase in charges by the Metropolitan Waste Control Commission for sewer treatment resulted in a 16.8% increase in sanitary sewer rates and Sewer Fund performance will have to be carefully monitored in setting rates for 1994 and future years. 0 9-y CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA GENERAL FUND COMPARATIVE BALANCE SHEET December 31, 1992 and 1991 ASSETS' Cash and investments Receivables: Taxes Special assessments Accounts Due from other funds Due from other governments Total Assets LIABILITIES AND FUND BALANCE Liabilities: Accounts payable Accrued salaries and employee benefits payable Due to other funds Due to other governments Deferred revenue 0 Total Liabilities Fund Balance: Reserved for: Encumbrances Unreserved: Designated for state aid reductions Designated for working capital Total Fund Balance Total Liabilities and Fund Balance 0 1992 $ 3,394,143 149,931 3,313 140,473 56,758 44,394 $3,789,012 $ 107,612 932,353 122,852 128,552 1,291,369 256,715 2,240,928 2,497,643 $3,789,012 FORM F 1991 $3,712,033 138,891 7,129 66,680 11,678 61.639 $3,998,050 $ 95,509 1,165,907 50,000 333,783 115,374 1,760,573 52,000 2,185,477 2,237,477 $3,998,050 -40- 9-S CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA FORM F-1 GENERAL FUND STATEMENT OF REVENUES, EXPENDITURES, AND CHANGES IN FUND BALANCE - BUDGET AND ACTUAL For the Year Ended December 31, 1992 With Comparative Actual Amounts for the Year Ended December 31, 1991 Revenues: Taxes Licenses and permits Intergovernmental revenue Charges for services Fines and forfeits Miscellaneous revenues Total Revenues Expenditures: General government Administrative services Public safety Community development Community services Total Expenditures Deficiency of Revenues over Expenditures Other Financing Sources (Uses) - Operating transfers in (out): Special Revenue Funds Enterprise Funds Internal Service Funds Net Other Financing 1992 Over Final (Under) 1991 Budget Actual Budget Actual $4,655,600 $4,661,531 $ 5,931 $ 4,552,015 313,770 386,511 72,741 329,490 5,151,610 5,444,557 292,947 5,136,858 840,690 894,872 54,182 1,190,362 201,175 190,693 (10,482) 189,109 220,270 275,576 55,306 306,808 11,383,115 11,853,740 470,625 11,704,642 562,360 502,550 (59,810) 850,200 846,574 (3,626) 6,065,830 6,022,454 (43,376) 233,450 217,352 (16,098) 3,832,475 3,799,869 32 606) 11,544,315 11,388,799 (155,516 (161,200) 464,941 626,141 139,200 139,200 22,000 17,345 (4,655) Sources 161,200 156,545 (4,655) Excess (Deficit) of Revenues and Other Sources Over Expenditures and Other Uses 621,486 621,486 Fund Balance - January 1 Equity Transfer In Equity Transfer Out 2,237,477 2,237,477 524,846 874,840 6,145,877 203,258 4,189,602 11,938,423 (233,781) (31,550) 128,190 (16,500) 80,140 (153,641) 2,297,716 100,000 150,000 50,000 143,402 (100,000) (511,320) (411,320) (50,000) Fund Balance - December 31 • $2,237,477 $2,497,643 $ 260,166 L2,237,477 -41- CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA JFORM -2 GENERAL FUND SCHEDULE OF REVENUES COMPARED TO BUDGET (CONTINUED) • For the Year Ended December 31, 1992 With Comparative Actual Amounts for the Year Ended December 31, 1991 1992 Over Final (Under) 1991 Budget Actual Budget Actual Taxes: Current ad valorem $3,654,403 $3,649,104 $ (5,299) $3,547,463 Fiscal disparities 986,197 986,197 915,411 Delinquent ad valorem 10,000 23,320 13,320 (2,750) Penalties, interest, and forfeited tax sales 5,000 2,910 (2,090) .3,396 Hotel/Motel lodging 88,495 Total Taxes 4,655,600 4,661,531 5,931 4,552,015 Licenses and Permits: Business licenses 143,770 171,749 27,979 141,230 Nonbusiness licenses and permits 170,000 214,762 44,762 188,260 Total Licenses and Permits 313,770 386,511 72,741 329,490 Intergovernmental Revenue: Federal - .

Background: Phase I construction of 77th Street, I-35W to Portland Avenue, is scheduled to take place in 1993. Bids will be opened Monday, April 12, 1993, under direction of the Minnesota Department of Transportation, for 77th Street right of way clearance. It is necessary for the City of Richfield to make a recommendation for action on the award of contract(s); i.e., reject bids or favor award to apparent low bidder. Because it is important that the contract award(s) be processed as quickly as possible, Council is asked to consider a special meeting related to this subject and action. Information on the bid opening will be provided to Council Members as quickly as possible. However, it may be that the details will not be available until the Special Council meeting. Recommended Motion: Schedule a Special City Council meeting for 6:00 p.m., Thursday, April 15, 1993, in the Council Chambers of City Hall. Basis of Recommendation: 1. The 77th Street improvement project is important to the City of Richfield. 2. Bids for right of way clearance of Phase I, I-35W to Portland Avenue, will be opened April 12, 1993. 3. The City of Richfield must make recommendation for action on the award of contract(s) as part of the process. 4. Because timing of the process is critical, Council is asked to hold a special meeting. Alternative Recommendation: 1. Schedule the Thursday, April 15, 1993 Special Council meeting for a time other than 6:00 p.m., some time more convenient to Council Members. 2. Schedule the Special Council meeting for a date other than Thursday, April 15, 1993. However, an earlier meeting date may not provide sufficient time for the bids to be analyzed prior to the Council needing to take action, and a later is meeting date may detrimentally delay the process. The earliest suggested date and time for a Special Council meeting on this subject is noon, Thursday; April 15, and the latest'suggested date and time is noon, Friday, April 16. ? , I Discussion/Decision Mode: Council is asked to determine the date and time of a Special Council meeting so sufficient notice of the meeting may be given. Respectfully submitted, James Prosser City M ager JDP:ds \J CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA Council Letter No. 92 Agenda March 22, 1993 Issue statement: Award of contract for purchase of a fire engine and equipment. Background: Unit 3788,•a 1973 fire pumper, is fully depreciated and scheduled to be replaced in 1994. In January 1993, a memorandum was presented to the Council asking permission to advertise for bids for this replacement truck in 1993 because it takes a year to have one of these trucks built. Specifications were written by a special committee in the Fire Division. A formal bid opening was held on February 26 with the following results: General Safety Equipment Corp. Pierce Mfg., Inc. Vehicle $203,745 $219,069 Along with the base bids for the truck, the bidders were asked to give bids on optional additions to the truck. Staff selected options 1, 3 & 4 as additions to the truck. These bids are as follows: Options: 1. Air Compressor S+ 850 $+ 873 3. Limited Slip Differential + 707 N/C • 4. Radio & Opticom (installed) + 540 + 874 Sub-total these items: $ 2,097 $ 1,747 Bidders were also asked to give bids on ten specialized pieces of equipment. Neither vendor was able to furnish prices on all ten pieces; staff selected seven of these options. The comparison of quotes for these pieces of equipment are as follows: 2. Echo Ventilation Saw 4. Dura Pak Fire Hose 5. Nozzles 6. Flashlights 7. SCBA (Self Contained Breathing Apparatus) 9. Portable Cord Reel 10. Resuscitator Sub-total these items: $ 1,200 1,120 3,080 528 8,100 1,000 600 $15,628 $ 875 1,275 2,250 450 9,200 1,200 750 $16,000 One critical piece of additional equipment for which neither vendor provided a price was the Holmatro rescue tool. Extensive testing by staff placed the Holmatro as the best rescue tool of its kind. Pierce Mfg., Inc. gave no bid on this item, and General Safety bid an unacceptable substitute. In negotiating with General, staff insisted that this specific piece of equipment be included with the truck. General Safety can supply the Holmatro rescue tool for $16,380. Staff has checked with the supplier of the tool, and obtained quotes on comparable pieces of equipment, and this is a very competitive price: especially if it is included in the price of the truck and the City will not have to pay additional sales tax on the tool as a separate item. In addition, since the funds to purchase this vehicle and equipment will not be included in the budget until 1994, both vendors included a finance fee if a partial payment is not made when they take delivery of the truck chassis. The City is willing to pay this fee which is as follows: General Safety Equipment Corp. Pierce Mfg., Inc. $ 3,147 $ 3,000* (*Pierce included the finance charge in their base bid.) TOTAL W/SELECTED OPTIONS: $224,617 $236,816 Recommended Motion: 1. Award a contract for the purchase of a fire rescue engine and equipment to General Safety Equipment Corporation in the sum of $224,617. 2. Authorize the purchase of a Holmatro Rescue Tool for the additional sum of $16,380, to be installed on the truck by General Safety Equipment Corporation at no extra charge. Basis for Recommendation: 1. General Safety was the low bidder on the truck and selected options and equipment. 2. General Safety was closest in compliance to the specifications. 3. Staff feels General Safety is giving the best price possible on the Holmatro Rescue Tool, and will install the tool for no additional cost beyond the purchase price of the tool. Alternative Recommendation: Council could reject both bids and instruct staff to re-bid the engine and equipment. Discussion/Decision Mode: Staff is requesting approval at the March 22, 1993 Council meeting in order to facilitate delivery in 1994 of this piece of equipment. Res c ully submitted, Jame D.

Thomas P. Ferber City Clerk 0 CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA . Council Letter No. 91 Agenda March 22, 1993 Issue Statement: Consideration of human service priority recommendations to the Hennepin County Community Services Department and Hennepin County Commissioners. Background: Each year, •South Hennepin Regional Planning Agency (SHeRPA) presents a report to the Hennepin County Community Services Department and Hennepin County Commissioners outlining priority human service issues in South Hennepin County. The cities of Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Edina and Richfield constitute South Hennepin County. The report requirement is a result of the Community Social Services Act of 1979 which requires that Hennepin County develop a means for citizen input to be included in the planning and budgeting process for Hennepin County's human service programs. The priorities established by Hennepin County are the basis for allocating resources to meet human service needs. The Community Services Department has a budget of approximately $209 million and contracts out many services in addition to the services it provides directly. The recommendations from SHeRPA were developed as a result of input from each of the member communities, citizen advisory commissions and the Regional Citizens Advisory Commission. The priorities include: ? Child care subsidies for low income families. ? Services for youth and families. ? Emergency financial assistance for low-income adults and families. ? Services for domestic violence. ? Mental health services. ? Access to and coordination of services. ? Services for seniors. These are not ranked in order of importance. Recommended Motion: Approve the priority recommendations to Hennepin County. Basis for Recommendation: 1. It is appropriate that Richfield participate in providing recommendations for human service priorities. 2. The Richfield Community Human Service Planning Council has participated in a prioritization discussion for human service needs. The Council has previously reviewed that report. (-1 0 3. The Regional Citizens Advisory Commission has approved this recommendation at their meeting on February 25. 4. These reports are scheduled to be presented to Hennepin County Community Services Management Team on Monday, March 29. Alternative Recommendation: 1. The Council may decide to add or delete priorities established. 2. The Council may decide not to provide any recommendations. Discussion/Decision Mode: This matter will be presented for action at the City Council meeting on March 22. ly submitted, Jame Prosser City pager JDP:cak Copy: Jeanne Massey, SHeRPA I* 0 6--- CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA Council Letter No.90 Agenda March 22, 1993 Issue Statement: Approval of a resolution supporting legislative action to reduce tobacco use among youth. Background: At their February 8, 1993 meeting, the Richfield Advisory Board of Health made a motion to send a resolution to the State Legislature in support of the MinnesotaCare bill (Health Care) as part of that bill contains information relating to controlling youth access to tobacco products. Specifically, the bill supports legislative action to reduce tobacco use among youth by increasing the excise tax, restricting advertising at point of sale and controlling youth access to tobacco products. Recommended Motion: Approve the resolution supporting legislative action to reduce tobacco use among youth. Basis of Recommendation: 1. The Richfield Advisory Board of Health is charged by the City Council to study public health needs in the city and to recommend to the council policies, ordinances, and programs necessary to meet these needs. 2. Usage of tobacco and tobacco related products has been determined to be one of the most serious health problems facing Minnesota and is the largest contributor to preventable disease and premature death. 3. Any efforts to restrict access of tobacco products to youth should be strongly supported. Alternative Recommendation: 1. The Council could decide not to approve of the resolution. This would mean the council does not support this legislation within the MinnesotaCare bill. Discussion/Decision Mode: The resolution regarding access of youth to tobacco products contained in legislation (MinnesotaCare bill) is presented for Council consideration at this time. ly submitted, Jame Prosser City nager JDP:cak 5-1 CITY OF RICHFIELD RESOLUTION NO.

Carlene Ulmer Chair ATTEST: Mary Jan Markkula Vice Chair CITY OF RICHFIELD, MINNESOTA Council Letter No. $9 Agenda March 22, 1993 • Issue Statement: Public hearing on the Urban Hennepin County Year XIX Community Development Block Grant Allocation. Background: The City Council is scheduled to conduct a public hearing on March 22, 1993 to determine Richfield's use of the Year XIX Urban Hennepin County Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) allocation of $241,346. Requests for $257,202 of Year XIX funds have been submitted. Information concerning Hennepin County's CDBG program objectives, the project funding requests and the rationale for providing the funds is attached. Total funds allocated to Richfield in Year XIX increased 29% from last year. As in past years, Richfield proposes Public Service and Home Improvement program,components. Richfield has supported three public service agencies through the CDBG allocation - Greater Minneapolis Day Care Association (G.M.D.C.A.), H.O.M.E. and SKILLS 2000 programs. In recent years, the G.M.D.C.A., H.O.M.E. and SKILLS 2000 programs have received a combined total of 15 percent of Richfield's allocation.' This is consistent with the 15 percent cap guideline Hennepin County recommends. A fourth public service agency request from Community Action for Suburban Hennepin (CASH) is • also discussed. The CASH request falls outside the 15 percent cap. The H.O.M.E. Program (Household and Outside Maintenance for Elderly) indicates that the need in Richfield is great and continues to increase. This program allows elderly residents to stay in their homes and delays entering nursing home facilities. H.O.M.E. draws down their CDBG annual funding in six months. But, due to the flexibility of other funding sources, they are able to support the demands of Richfield residents for the remainder of the funding year. However, a waiting list is maintained indicating the Richfield need. This year H.O.M.E. is requesting $19,350. SKILLS 2000, a Richfield based adult education service program for low income individuals, was funded for the first time last year. SKILLS 2000 was initially funded by the McKnight Foundation and is seeking other funding to continue this service. This year, SKILLS 2000 is requesting $10,000. Last year, G.M.D.C.A. indicated the possibility of phasing out CDBG funding. However, as indicated by their request, this will not occur. G.M.D.C.A. was given additional Federal funding last year which slowed expenditure of CDBG funding. All other Federal funds have been expended and they anticipate the need for • continued CDBG funding. G.M.D.C.A. is requesting $20,000. CASH has submitted a request for $2,973 to support a tenant information and advocacy hotline, a tenant community organizer staff position, and a new mortgage foreclosure prevention program. Hennepin County has indicated only the mortgage L)-/ foreclosure prevention program is an eligible CDBG initiative. The program appears to meet a general housing need but the need for service to Richfield is not clear nor is the amount or service that would be provided to the City residents if funds • were allocated. Apparently one staff member will handle the program for all of suburban Hennepin County. Further research to identify needs and alternative means to supply services should be considered before allocating funds from the existing CDBG funded public service entities to CASH. Richfield supports two Home Improvement projects; Housing Rehabilitation Deferred Loans and New Home Program Scattered Site Housing. Presently 14 households are waiting to be served by Rehabilitation Deferred Loans. The CDBG Year XIX funds, when combined with loans presently in progress, will be sufficient to serve all those waiting plus approximately six additional households which either need emergency repairs or seek more major repairs during the 1993 spring, summer, fall, repair/construction season. A total amount of $86,424 is requested for rehabilitation. Two projects are proposed with a $118,455 request for the New Home Scattered Site Housing Program. One site is committed to the HRA's ongoing Vo-Tech project initiative for moderate income purchasers. The HRA has also expressed an interest in a site being identified to facilitate a Habitat for Humanity initiative; home ownership for lower income families. Sufficient funds are budgeted to provide this additional opportunity. Since Richfield's total allocation is higher than last year, all recipient programs increase.

The $118,455 allocated for scattered site is the minimum required to complete two scattered site projects. The $86,424 would be used for rehabilitation of single family homes through the Deferred Loan program. 3. Public service funding would be allocated for the H.O.M.E. program to service approximately 20 households. The child day care subsidy would be used to service approximately five families. The Skills 2000 allocation would serve up to ten individuals. The three programs are combined into one project entitled "public services".

Ferber, City Clerk q-L) RATIONALE FOR FUNDING REHABILITATION DEFERRED LOAN PROJECT Richfield's Rehabilitation Deferred Loan Program provides a means for low income homeowners to make needed repairs to maintain their homes, and improves the general condition of Richfield's housing stock. Improvements-include code compliance, general improvements, accessibility for the handicapped, and weatherization. In 1993: - $86,424 in CDBG Year XIV assistance is requested. - 14 households have already applied for assistance. - The high demand months, the spring/summer/fall construction season when new requests for assistance most often occur, are approaching. - The deferred loan program is the only rehabilitation program which serves the low income homeowner clientele. - There are insufficient funds in this request to meet waiting applicants and anticipated demand. The 1993 HRA and Housing Division goals are to assist homeowners in making repairs and maintaining the existing housing stock. In 1992, 18 low income Richfield homeowners were assisted with approximately $129,000 in deferred loans. The higher loan total reflects activity from two years to deferred loan funding which • overlap during every calendar year. Six of these were emergency loans which financed furnace replacement and plumbing repairs where failure occurred. Emergency funds also help low income homeowners to resolve other seemingly impossible situations: leaking roofs, unexpected electrical problems, and storm flooding not covered by insurance programs. The continued financial cone Assistance to independently single parent stability. demand for deferred loans reflects the increasing nitment required for households to maintain a home. elderly homeowners allows them to continue to live in the community. Assistance to families, often households, provides a measure of household 1] q,s RATIONALE FOR FUNDING SCATTERED SITE PROJECT • The New Home Scattered Site program provides the HRA the opportunity to expand affordable housing opportunities and maintain the existing housing stock for lower income persons. The project makes long term improvements when: - substandard housing is cleared - vacant land suitable for development is acquired - buildings are acquired and rehabilitated to create additional housing - new housing-is developed that increases the affordable housing stock. The New Home Program is the most active scattered site acquisition and clearance program occurring in Richfield. During the last 10 years, on many occasions, the Richfield HRA produced the only new affordable housing opportunities for young families in the city. Funding this project: 1. Allows further removal of approximately 200.substandard homes that currently exist. Those properties are difficult to sell in the market place. The HRA continually receives offers throughout the year from • owners interested in selling. During 1992, 46 property owners indicated interest in selling in 1992. 2. Allows blighted housing conditions or abandoned housing problems to be resolved. Foreclosures are occurring more often. Housing conditions are such that HRA involvement through acquisition and rehabilitation is appropriate. The housing stock, particularly the garage homes and older cottages, 45 to 50 years old, are approaching replacement age. 3. Ensures reutilization of Richfield house structures within the City. The HRA has reused seven-Richfield house structures by relocating and remodeling them on scattered sites throughout the city. Structures were acquired from properties purchased for park expansion and commercial and residential developments. 4. Provides affordable first time home buying opportunities. Larger family households with the Richfield average income of $30,000 have difficulty-finding 3 and 4 bedroom homes in . good repair which sell for the Richfield average sale price • Of $83,000. With cost reductions by Vo-Tech, MHFA mortgages -and HRA second mortgages, purchasing families range in size from 3 to 6 members with incomes between $29,000 and $35,000. • The New Home program has provided a stable tenancy. Since the Vo-Tech program started in 1978, the fourteen properties developed, have continued with the original owner. 5. Continues a cost effective construction relationship with the Vo-Tech School. Working with the Vo-Tech School, cost of approximately $65,000 to sell for $83,000 on the average. construction by contractors has 6. Increase property tax revenue. new homes can be built at a $75,000 while existing homes Recent private new cost in excess of $100,000. The increase in tax revenues from properties redeveloped by the HRA approximates $1,000 per property annually. 7. Continues housing distribution on scattered sites. Blighted housing conditions and HRA solutions occur on scattered sites throughout the city as properties become available. This achieves uniform upgrading of.neighborhoods throughout the city without concentrating assistance in one location. • 8. Provides housing stability in neighborhoods where blight has continued for lengthy periods of time. Most acquisitions are encouraged by surrounding neighbors who seek a solution to a substandard house, which experiences frequent changes in ownership and progressive deterioration. 9. Continues A process where one scattered site purchase each year ensures that Vo-Tech will exclusively provide new homes in a timely manner for sale to low and moderate first time buyers. CDBG funds expended in 1993, provide a completed home in at 6634 Fourth Ave. So. CDBG funds in 1993 also provide the opportunity for completed homes in 1994 on sites to be determined.* Approximately two homes are built each year if yearly CDBG allocations continue. 10. Complements new program initiatives by enabling the HRA to address a variety of housing needs. Staff utilizes the Richfield Rediscovered (RR) Program to increase the rate at which substandard structures are removed and new single family homes are built. Given this new program, a question might be raised as to the continued role of CDBG funds for acquisition of one or two properties each year. CDBG funds are important in enabling the HRA to meet specific needs: - New housing opportunities are provided for low and • moderate income first time homebuying families, while RR homes have above average values and will be sold at market rates. CDBG funds enable the HRA to provide a housing program continuum that meets modest cost housing needs as well as housing needs for middle income persons. - CDBG funds provide.a mechanism to ensure a continued affordable housing construction relationship with Vo-Tech. RR would use private developers, not Vo-Tech. The CDBG funds, as a write down subsidy that does not require repayment, allow the HRA to also work with non profits such as Habitat for Humanity. <Scattered/NewHome> LI 0 t ENE SENIOR COMMUNITY SERVICES • .10709 Wayzata Boulevard, Suite 111, Minnetonka, MN 55305 541-1019 FAX 541-0841 BOARD of DIRECTORS Tom Ticen President February 17, 1993 ' Daralyn Peifer 1st Vice President Marty Guritz Ms. Judith L.Kunz, 2nd Vice President Community Development Assistant Bob Zagaros City of Richfield Secretary 6700 Portland Ave. Richfield, MN 55423-2599 Ryan Schroeder Treasurer Dear Ms. Kunz : Walter Levesque Past President Senior Community Services is requesting $19,350 • from the City of Richfield in CDBG Year XIX (July Bob Miller 1, 1993 - June 30, 1994) to support the HOME Mem6eratLarge Program.

I am e Richfield residents. Fof nearly five years, SKILLS 2000 has served residents of Hennepin County with an innovative program that promotes the economic self-sufficiency of low skilled, unemployed or underemployed parents who face multiple barriers to employment. SKILLS 2000 combines adult basic education for workplace literacy; vocational counseling, job-specific training, and other job-related services; and family counseling and support. Services are-provided through the collaboration of employers, educators, vocational experts and social service professionals. In 1992, SKILLS 2000 provided educational, vocational and employment services to 75 individuals. Sixteen of these program participants were residents of Richfield. Of these sixteen: ° 100% were economically disadvantaged. ° 88% were unemployed. ° 88% were single parents. ° Seven are currently.employed. ° One entered post-secondary training. ° Four are continuing in the program. I am pleased with the program outcomes from 1992 and anticipate continued success in the future. It appears that the carefully designed, comprehensive services provided by the program makes SKILLS 2000 a model for the integra- tion of education and employment training for adults. Estimates for program costs are based on the following information. A SKILLS 2000 participant in a high school diploma track will spend, on average, six months completing academic requirements. That participant will continue working with program staff an additional two months to develop a vocational plan, to build skills, and to find employment. The cost in 1993 of providing services will be approximately $7.00 per hour or $3,500 per participant annually. I anticipate that the SKILLS 2000 program will serve at least ten Richfield residents in 1993.

Richfield, MN 55423 Dear Ms. Kunz: LO 1* I am requesting that Richfield use $20,000 of its CDBG money to oontinuo funding the child care sliding fee program, The Richfield child care sliding fee program has been an important support to Richfield families who are working or in school, I know that this is more than last years amount, but it is a level of funding Richfield had provided in previous years. Between 1991 and 1993 the Federal child care funds reduced waiting Usti and allowed us to move many Richfield families onto Federal and State Sliding Fee Child Care assistance, However since last spring we have seen a steady increase in the waiting lists. Continued funding from Richfield is crucial until we can convince the Federal or State Governments to fully fund this money saving and effective program to support families who are worldng or in school. Durhj the period from July 1, 1991 through June 30th, 1992 Richfield CDBQ minds provided the fo owing service: 0 Children Served: 20 Families Served: 14 There are presently three families with five children on the Richfield child care sliding fee program. The Year XVII money was all spent by 12/31/92 and we have committed a2i of the remaining Year XVIII funds. There are over 109 Richfield families on the waiting list for sliding oo child care assistance. I know that with such a long waiting list the $20,000 request may sound insignificant, For the families we are able to help however, it is often the difference between keeling a job, going on AFDC or putting their c1ildren in less than adequate care arrangements. We are continuing our efforts to obtain full funding from the State and Federal levels. In the mean time I hope that the City of Richfield will renew its commitment to this program.

After this fiscal year, we will be looking at greatly reduced funds due to a change in federal regulations. Community Action has established several very valued programs in the area of housing. HOME Line, our housing service, offers tenant information and advocacy through a hotline. We employ a tenant organizer who has assisted tenants in apartment buildings with multiple problems to come together to solve those problems. We also recently opened a mortgage foreclosure prevention program which has helped homeowners faced with a* crisis renegotiate loans, and helped those families preserve their homes. HOME Line services assisted more than 2,400 households last year, and as you are aware, preserving housing stability is key to maintaining strong communities. We are requesting that the City of Richfield allocate $$2,973 from its CDBG grant to support our housing services in FY 94. This amount is Richfield's proportional share of the total CDBG we are requesting from • our most heavily served suburban municipalities as shown in the enclosed listing. We have worked hard to arrive at a request that we feel is appropriate and proportional. We also believe that our services truly help preserve affordable housing in your community, and we hope you will view our request favorably. As we look ahead to our future, Community Action intends to continue to provide direct services in selected areas of unmet need, and work closely with other human service providers as a leader, networker, and catalyst in bringing us together around issues that impact the poor in our communities. For example, Community Action will be supporting Sustainable Resource Center in a joint contract to deliver weatherization services. Particularly with utility increases and proposed energy taxes, we will be looking for ways to minimize the impact on poor residents whose budgets are already stretched by the high costs of housing. We will also welcome the opportunity to work more closely with municipalities on understanding your particular concerns in meeting the needs of your most vulnerable residents. I and my staff would be pleased to meet with you to discuss this request in more detail. If you have questions or need additional information, please feel free to contact me at 933-9180.

Background : In the early 1970's, the City of Richfield began a shade tree disease program to assist homeowners in the removal of diseased elm and oak trees on private property. When the City's Tree Inspector marks a diseased tree on private property for removal, the homeowner has three options: - removal of the tree by the homeowner; - homeowner hires a contractor to perform the work; or - homeowner authorizes the City's contractor to perform the work. If the City contractor performs the tree removal, the homeowner has the option to pay the removal costs immediately, or have the cost assessed to the property taxes over a three-year period. The City's bidding process for removal of diseased trees on private property was revised and streamlined in 1985. A single • contractor is hired to remove the trees rather than bidding out each tree individually. This year, specifications for this work were sent to eight tree removal companies in the metropolitan area. The companies were asked to bid a per-inch cost, based on the actual number and sizes of trees removed in 1992. Two bids were received and opened on Friday, March 5, 1993 with the following results: Ceres Tree Company $123,553 Precision Landscape & Tree, Inc. $145,959 The 1992 bid for tree removal was $102,641. Rising disposal costs and an estimated increase in Dutch Elm disease, based on last year's figures, has contributed to the higher bid in 1993. Recommended Motion: Accept the bid minutes/tabulation and award the 1993 contract for removal of diseased trees on private property to Ceres Tree Company in the total estimated amount of $123,553. Basis of Recommendation: 1. Ceres Tree Company was the lowest responsible bidder for this work. 2. Ceres Tree Company has worked for Richfield before and has proven to be a reliable contractor. 3N1 Alternative Recommendation: Council may choose to reject advertise in an attempt to ri believes the per-tree prices homeowners with a reasonable have the City coordinate the all bids and direct staff to re- Bceive a lower bid. However, staff are low enough to provide Richfield removable cost should they decide to removal of their diseased tree(s). Discussion/Decision Mode: To assure sufficient time to process the necessary paperwork before the first trees are marked for removal, this item is scheduled for the City Council agenda of March 22, 1993.

Issue Statement: Payment in excess of $5,000 for processing permit from the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District for 77th Street Project and authorization to enter a hold harmless agreement. Background: City staff •and the staff of the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District (MCWD) have been working together to arrive at an acceptable plan for handling the storm water generated by the 77th Street Project. The solution includes a boundary change of the watershed district. All of MCWD's engineering and attorney fees are included in the permit fee at a total cost of $17,250. The MCWD is also requesting a hold harmless agreement as part of the boundary change. The stormwater solution includes the provision for an outlet to Wood Lake. This outlet is designed to accommodate an overflow outlet from the Richfield Lake to Wood Lake. The payment and agreement were included as a stipulation needed for Minnehaha Creek Watershed District concurrence with the planned boundary change. Recommended Motion: Approve payment of $17,250 to Minnehaha Creek Watershed District for processing the permit to provide an outlet to Wood Lake and authorize entering a hold harmless agreement as part of the boundary change. • Basis of Recommendation: 1. The payment and agreement are needed as a stipulation to MCWD concurrence with the boundary change. 2. The costs are a reasonable reflection of MCWD engineering and legal fees. 3. The boundary change moves the Wood Lake basin out of the MCWD and into the Richfield Bloomington Water Management Organization. The hold harmless agreement with MCWD does not expose the City to any additional risk related to the Wood Lake basin above the risk accepted for other areas of the Richfield Bloomington Water Management Organization. Alternative Recommendation: None. Discussion/Decision Mode: The Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) will be concluding this public hearing on the boundary change on March 23, 1993. Action by the City Council on March 22, 1993 will fulfill the MCWD's last stipulation needed for their concurrence. y submitted, Jame Prosser City M ager JDP:cak • • 0 3P/ INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT FOR THE • 77TH STREET PROJECT AND WOOD LAKE BASIN WATERSHED BOUNDARY CHANGE BETWEEN THE MINNEHAHA CREEK WATERSHED DISTRICT AND THE CITY OF RICHFIELD WHEREAS, the City of Richfield intends to construct a storm sewer system and outlet to Wood Lake as part of the 77th Street Project; and WHEREAS, the City has petitioned the Board of Soil and Water Resources for a change of boundary which would remove the area tributry to Wood Lake from the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District and attach it to the Richfield Bloomington Water Management Organization; and WHEREAS, the Minnehaha Creek Watershed District agreed to withdraw its opposition to Richfield's boundary change petition subject to stipulations including a written expression of the City of Richfield's acceptance of responsibility for the 77th Street project.

Background: The City purchases general liability insurance from the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust with Berkley Risk Services, Inc. as Administrator. The City's insurance policy has a $50,000 deductible for liability claims. In 1986, the City significantly reduced its premium by having a large deductible. The premium savings and additional monies have been used to create a Self- Insurance Fund to cover payments made which are under the deductible as claims arise. On November 24, 1992, a Richfield police officer made a left turn in front of oncoming traffic and was struck by an oncoming car. The other driver submitted a claim for the damage done to her car. A compromise settlement was agreed to by the claimant and the City's insurance administrator through the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust. The settlement includes a lump sum payment of $5,210.45. Since the settlement and costs fall within our deductible limit, the City is directly responsible for the payment. • Recommended Motion: Approve the payment to the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust in the amount of $5,210.45. Basis for Recommendation: 1. The City's insurance policy provides that the insurance carrier shall, at its discretion, investigate, settle, or defend any claims or suit against the City. The insurance carrier has settled this claim. 2. Funding is provided for defense or payment of claims costing less than the $50,000 deductible. Alternative Recommendation: None. Discussion/Decision Mode: This item is on the March 22, 1993 regular City Council meeting consent calendar. Payment should be made to reimburse the insurance carrier as quickly as possible.

Background: For approximately the last two years, the City of Richfield has been attempting to resolve a workers' compensation claim concerning a Richfield firefighter. The claim involved an injury which was sustained at a fire scene and ultimately resulted in the firefighter's disability and termination of employment. This workers' compensation matter was a complex case which included numerous hearings, depositions, meetings and negotiations structuring a reasonable settlement. The case was concluded with a stipulated settlement which was approved by the City Council on March 8, 1993. Court action on this matter was to start within a day of the time the tentative settlement was reached. The City was represented in this matter by the law firm of Rider, Bennett, Egan & Arundel, a firm that specializes in the area of workers' compensation. Leslie Altman, the attorney who represented the City is an expert in this area of practice and previously served as a Judge on the Workers' Compensation Court of Appeals. Ms. Altman's expertise in this area helped the City secure a payment of $87,500 from the Special Compensation Fund in this matter, which represented 47% of the total settlement. She was also able to gain a full and final settlement of the claim including all non-workers' compensation issues. The City received excellent representation from Ms. Altman in every aspect of this difficult case. Ms. Altman's attorney fees for this case have now been presented to the City for payment. The total payment due is $6,519.71. Recommended Motion: Approve the payment of $6,519.71 legal fees to Rider, Bennett, et al. for services provided in a workers' compensation matter. Basis of Recommendation: 1. The City was recently faced with a very difficult workers' compensation case which required legal representation. 2. The City hired the above named law firm to provide legal services for this workers' compensation matter. 3. The case has now been satisfactorily concluded and a payment for services is due. 3I)l Alternative Recommendation: 1. None, the services have been provided and prompt payment should now be made. Discussion/Decision Mode: This item has been scheduled for the March 22, 1993 City Council meeting so that timely payment of the bill may occur.

Background: The Council has authorized purchase and set just compensation for the following properties: ? Richfield-Bloomington Honda - $15,400 (including land trade for 7701 Harriet Avenue office building residual); and ? Soo Line - $9,000 for a permanent easement, - $400 for a temporary construction easement, and - $14,300 for a permanent easement over for the 77th Street railroad crossing. Discussions have been underway and are friendly and of a good faith nature. However, it is clear that value will be an issue. To maintain the schedule, it would be appropriate to authorize condemnation on these parcels as the next Council meeting is three weeks away. Recommended Motion: Adopt a motion approving the attached resolution which authorizes the initiation of condemnation on a portion of the Richfield- Bloomington Honda property and a portion of the Soo Line property depicted in the attached drawings. Basis of Recommendation: 1. Ownership of these parcels is necessary to receive MnDOT/FHWA approval to initiate construction in the spring of 1993. 2. Negotiations to date have been friendly and there is no reason to believe that it will change, but there is clear disagreement on value. 3. Condemnation procedures should be initiated to avoid construction delays. However, it is still possible that an agreement on values can be reached. Alternative Recommendation: 1. Delay action. 0 2.

Background: City Charter provides that the Local Board of Equalization shall consist of all of the City Council Members and two Richfield residents experienced in real estate matters. The purpose of the Board is to hear appeals from the property owners concerning their property values.

He is also experienced in building construction and held a real estate license. Mr. Emond has been a Richfield resident for 30 years and he is very knowledgeable of the City. His previous input on the Richfield Board of Equalization has been extremely valuable as determinations and appeals presented by Richfield citizens were considered. The second Richfield resident under consideration for appointment for the 1992 Board of Equalization is Glenn Erickson, 7240 Bryant Avenue. Mr. Erickson has been a resident of Richfield since 1950 and has been in the property appraisal business since 1951. He first served on the Richfield Board of Review in 1991. His business has predominately included appraisal of single family residential, duplex and fourplex properties. The appraisals have included those for a mortgage loan business and a number of appraisal audits. Mr. Erickson currently holds both an appraisers and real estate brokers license. It is recommended that the compensation for resident members be set at $42.50 per session or $17.00 per hour per session, whichever is greater. This rate was last increased in 1991, when it was set at $40.00 per session or $16.00 per hour per session, whichever is greater. The proposed rate would remain in effect until the 1995 Board of Review. Recommended Motion: Approve the attached resolution confirming the appointment of Mr. Emond and Mr. Erickson to the 1993 Board of Equalization, at the proposed level of compensation stated herein. Basis for Recommendation: 1. Both Mr. Emond and Mr. Erickson are very knowledgeable and experienced in the areas of real estate appraisals. They are also both licensed appraisers. 3fq-1 2.

The City Council could select other qualified individuals as expert resident-representatives on the Board of Equalization, in place of either Mr. Emond or Mr. Erickson or both. Discussion/Decision Mode: It is requested that the City Council set the appointment of Mr. Emond and Mr. Erickson at the City Council meeting of March 22, 1993. The Board of Equalization will meet at 7:00 p.m., Monday, May 3, 1993.
