with the staff’s proposed approach.

ITEM #2
CITY COUNCIL POLICY PROPOSALS
COUNCIL AND STAFF DISCUSSION ON POLICY PROPOSALS FOR
CONSIDERATION AS PART OF ANNUAL WORKPLAN AND BUDGET PLANNING.
City Council Work Session Minutes
-2- April 8, 2025
City Manager Rodriguez introduced the City Council policy proposals.
Mayor Supple noted her rationale for the city policy discussion regarding the 4d tax classification.
Mayor Supple explained the 4d tax classification shifts the burden from one taxpayer to another
and suggested reviewing and creating criteria for eligible 4d tax classification status inquiries.
Community Development Director Poehlman noted staff had also identified 4d tax classification as
a priority. Community Development Director Poehlman noted a policy would be beneficial to clarify
eligible requests through specific criteria for 4d tax classification status. She added staff have
initiated some background work on this topic and noted a timeline of 6-8 months to fully complete
and tentatively present a draft policy to Council in early 2026.
Council consensus supported the 4d tax classification draft policy with criteria for eligibility and the
tentative draft policy timeline.
Council Member Burk introduced his policy proposal related to the 14-day eviction notice process
landlords must follow by state law in Minnesota. He proposed a city policy discussion that would
require landlords to provide a written 30-day pre-eviction notice before initiating evictions due to
non-payment of rent to tenants. Council Member Burk provided background information on the
issue and challenges of eviction notices to tenants.
Community Development Director Poehlman noted staff completed a preliminary background
review of the Council Member Burk’s proposal. Community Development Director Poehlman
expressed a desire to conduct a more in-depth analysis and engage with both landlords and
tenants to better understand the issues involved. Community Development Director Poehlman
noted concerns of creating an ordinance that is non-enforceable, and what the enforcement action
may look like. She stated that, due to other ongoing priorities, this policy proposal could not be
addressed until late 2026, unless it is escalated at the state level. Community Development
Director Poehlman staff could advocate for such a policy through legislation at the state level and
would less staff-work intensive.
Council reviewed the draft policy proposed, impacts to future evictions notices to landlords and
tenants, enforcement actions required by the city with such policy, current state legislation, and the
overall benefits and challenges of a policy regarding eviction notice timelines for payment of rent.
Council consensus supported the 30-day pre-eviction notice for non-payment of rent draft policy,
advocate at the legislative level, and the tentative draft policy timeline.
Council Member Burk introduced his second policy proposal addressing speeding in residential
neighborhoods. He referenced resident concerns about excessive speeding and discussed various
traffic calming solutions to mitigate the issue. Council Member Burk noted residents are open to
paying for traffic calming solutions within their neighborhoods. Council Member Burk indicated a
process is needed for residents to fund and implement traffic calming mitigations within their
neighborhoods.
City Engineer Powers expressed support for Council Member Burk’s second policy proposal on
neighborhood speeding and traffic calming mitigation. He emphasized the importance of having a
well-formulated plan and outlined a process that staff would follow to address the issue. City
Engineer Powers noted having the Transportation Commission engage in a robust public campaign
to review what neighborhoods want, guidelines for traffic calming mitigation, which neighborhoods
are priorities, and funding sources. City Engineer Powers noted the Transportation Commission
could begin review of a policy draft tentatively in late 2026 to early 2027.
City Council Work Session Minutes
-3-April 8, 2025
Public Works Director Asher noted additional resources would be necessary in addressing the
neighborhood traffic calming mitigation processes.
Council and staff discussed various projects statewide related to traffic calming options, hiring
additional staff, and data on decreased speed in areas utilizing traffic calming features.
Council consensus supports the draft policy on traffic calming mitigation with a tentative timeline
working with the Transportation Commission in late 2026 to early 2027.
Council Member Christensen expressed concerns about the effectiveness of current traffic control
measures, noting that individuals often find ways to bypass them—citing speed bumps as an
example. She emphasized that speeding and failure to observe stop signs continue despite
implemented measures. She recommended conducting further studies and collecting additional
data to better identify and prioritize the most significant issues for traffic calming efforts.
Council Member Hayford Oleary introduced a policy proposal to expand sidewalk coverage in
neighborhoods and noted statistics of 100 miles of streets with 45 miles of sidewalks, Bloomington
has 342 miles of streets with 300 miles of sidewalks, St. Louis Park has 30% larger land area and
has 200% more sidewalk coverage. In addition, we have policies that make sidewalks more
expensive and noted wider sidewalks for plowing. Council Member Hayford Oleary noted the city is
behind in sidewalk coverage and does not have funding to incorporate future residential sidewalks.
Council Member Hayford Oleary noted 4 different policy drafts to provide framework and support in
identifying priority streets where sidewalks should be installed.
Council Member Burk expressed support of the policy proposal.
Council Member Coleman-Woods noted support of the sidewalk policy proposal.
Council Member Christensen noted when she moved to Richfield that the lack of sidewalks was
noticeable but also expressed concern about building additional sidewalks and that the
responsibility for sidewalk maintenance falls on residents. She also noted the policy proposal could
reduce the size of residents' yards.
Mayor Supple noted the cities cited with more sidewalk areas also have a larger tax base than
Richfield. Mayor Supple suggested discussing a long-term plan and including within the future
Comprehensive Plan, and review with residents to gain feedback and support. Mayor Supple
added the sidewalk integration and maintenance will be a long-term challenge.
Staff and Council discussed updating the Comprehensive Plan, with specific attention to the
transportation section and including sidewalks as a permitted feature within policy. Staff noted that
the Sidewalk Master Plan would be addressed following completion of the Comprehensive Plan
update. The discussion highlighted current challenges in new developments, including walkways
being replaced by parking, reduced pedestrian space, and issues related to tree placement on
boulevards. Staff noted utilizing a community survey regarding sidewalks.
Public Works Director Asher noted the 2018 Pedestrian Master Plan identified sidewalk locations
and was based on identified needs for the Safe Routes to School grant. She commented on tree
planting and noted if a sidewalk is identified in the plan, trees will not be planted if a sidewalk is
planned. Public Works Director Asher noted the last 5-10 years trees have been planted off the
property line, and away from curb and utilities. Deputy Public Works Director Link added staff can
review where identified sidewalks are located and not plant trees in those locations, and keep trees
planted 4 feet off curb, understanding that underground utilities at times may not allow for 4 feet
from the curb.
City Council Work Session Minutes
-4-April 8, 2025
Council Hayford Oleary provided an example of lack of funding and issue of correct policy, and
noted Russell Avenue is not a collector road or arterial road. The city had a land use change occur
due to an apartment complex development located in the block of Russell Avenue and 66th, and of
special note, a school is located on 65th. With a sidewalk placed along Russell Avenue between
66th and 67th Street, a sidewalk gap is now created between 66th and 65th along Russell Avenue,
and there is no funding to accommodate the sidewalk gap between 66th and 65th where a school is
located. Council Member Hayford Oleary noted the sidewalk location on Russell Avenue is
inconsistent with our current policy and noted intention of the draft policy is to provide long-term
consideration and clarity regarding land use, density, and street re-construction and sidewalk
location.
Council Member Hayford Oleary presented a graph to coincide with the draft sidewalk policy, that
includes sidewalk width, plowing guidelines and responsibilities, and land use considerations
regarding sidewalk options. Staff and Council discussed options to incorporate a draft policy
aligning with land use.
City Engineer Powers shared the numbers spent on sidewalk maintenance over the last few years
can be between $25,000-$50,000 a year. City Engineer Powers noted funding specifically for ADA
deficiencies in sidewalk paths in the future.
Mayor Supple noted review of the overall budget would be necessary before discussing the funding
for sidewalks. Council and staff discussed possible sidewalk maintenance processes for the draft
policy.
Council and staff reviewed the tree planting policy and how residents are notified.
Council Member Hayford Oleary reviewed funding for sidewalks, funding amounts, and future
timelines.
City Manager Rodriguez summarized the discussion and asked for some clarification and included
timing on updating comp plan with longer-term actions, updating the pedestrian plan, and partial
funding of infill gaps for existing sidewalks, existing policy clean up, and a community survey.
Sidewalk maintenance policy via an ordinance update indicating after first pass clearing sidewalks
by public works, with communication to residents to be good neighbors and clear sidewalks once
first pass is made.
Council Member Burk introduced the policy proposal relating to sustainable “Green-to-Go”
packaging for to-go food. Council member Burk thanked staff for their assistance and information
and the complications of the policy proposal. He noted Hennepin County is looking into
implementing similar processes Countywide. Council Member Burk noted the policy proposal could
be placed as a lower priority item.
Staff noted other sustainability priorities like residential recycling, composting, and multi-family
recycling that need to be in place before “Green-to-Go” is sustainable. Mayor Supple noted
communicating with the public on what the city is focusing on for sustainability. City Engineer
Powers added balancing policy proposals with current city needs is necessary, however staff
supports “Green-to-Go”.
Council noted placing the “Green-to-Go” policy proposal as a lower priority item.

minutes should be included as Consent Calendar items. He added that he does think that claims
belong in the Consent Calendar.
City Clerk Friedrich explained if there are necessary corrections to the minutes, the Council can pull
that separately from the Consent Calendar, review the changes, and include as a separate Consent
Calendar item, under Consent Items Pulled for Further Discussion.
Council Member Burk noted that he is unsure if there is a difference between the two options for
minutes.
Council Member Christensen stated she thinks that including staff proposed items in the Consent

input and guidance on the new agenda template.
Council and staff reviewed possible changes to Open Forum within the Rules of Procedure and
Decorum document. Council Member Hayford Oleary stated he feels the Open Forum current
procedure should remain. He opined that limiting Open Forum to 30 minutes would be wise, and if
more comments are necessary, residents can speak at the end of the meeting. Mayor Supple asked
if they would need to add an item for a Continued Open Forum at the end of the agenda and City
Manager Rodriguez stated adding and additional would not be necessary. Mayor Supple noted the
staff report referenced accommodating numerous people in an Open Forum to discuss the same
topic. Council Member Coleman-Woods noted the benefits of having a single spokesperson for the
City Council Meeting Minutes -5-April 8, 2025
same topic during an Open Forum for efficiency. Council discussed recommendations for Open Forum
processes and provided staff direction.
Council and staff reviewed possible changes to addressing Council and staff within the Rules of
Procedure and Decorum document. Mayor Supple asked for feedback on using first names in Work

suffice.

names during work sessions. Mayor Supple stated there was a Council consensus on using last
names at Work Sessions.
Council and staff discussed Council Members abstaining from voting section within the Rules of
Procedure and Decorum document. City Attorney Tietjen explained the section is related to Council
Members abstaining from motions and is in the City Code, so if the Council wants to change the
section, they need to update the Code. Council Member Burk asked if it is the burden of the Council
Member to cite the law that requires them to abstain. City Attorney Tietjen noted that likely Council
Members would reach out for legal counsel if there is an actual conflict of interest, and it will be clear
prior to the meeting. Council Member Hayford Oleary added he does not see abuse of abstaining in
the City of Richfield. He added that if a Council Member is abstaining from a vote, they should not
be allowed to participate in the discussion.
Council and staff reviewed the section limiting Council Members discussion on a topic with the Rules
of Procedure and Decorum document. Mayor Supple reviewed questions she had relating to limiting
Council Member discussion on a topic. City Attorney Tietjen noted that she would need to review the
rules and report back to the Council.
Mayor Supple noted in the Council Rules of Procedure and Decorum in Subd. 7, it discusses adding
items that are not on the agenda and inquired what kind of items that might be. City Attorney Tietjen
explained that it could be an item, such as a Council discussion, that doesn’t require a motion or public
hearing. City Clerk Friedrich added it could be an event that occurs on the day of the meeting and
noted an example of a potential Bill in legislation that could affect the City, and Council decides to add
an item as a point of discussion and record.
Staff noted the changes reviewed in the Council Rules of Procedure and Decorum would be brought
back to Council at a future meeting for review.

supplies will make gardening more financially and physically accessible for community gardeners. Currently
Richfield Recreation does not offer educational programing focused on agriculture. This would be a new offering
for youth and adults.
B.EQUITABLE OR STRATEGIC CONSIDERATIONS OR IMPACTS
This project will provide opportunities for more people to grow their own food who otherwise may not be able to.
The new programming will give youth and adults an opportunity to learn about cooking with the fresh, nutritious
foods they are growing, and learning about being an entrepreneur in that space.
Access to homegrown produce, free use of tools and seeds and access to affordable programming centered
around the produce grown demonstrates a commitment to economic justice and give opportunity for residents
who may not otherwise have the means to grow their own food to participate in the gardening process.
C.POLICIES (resolutions, ordinances, regulations, statutes, exc):
The Minnesota Department of Agriculture grant, as with all grants, requires Council acceptance by resolution.
D.CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES:
Staff will need to proceed with grant documents due by May 4 once Council approval is received.
E.FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The grant will provide $75,000 to improve access to the Richfield Community Gardens and grown new
Recreation programs. No matching funds are required for this grant.
F.LEGAL CONSIDERATION:
There are no legal considerations for this project.
ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S):
Reject the resolution and the $75,000 grant award.

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION:
Consider the acceptance of the quotation from Midwest Playscapes for $206,852.50 for the
construction of a natural playground at Wood Lake Nature Center and authorize the Recreation
Services Director to proceed with the project.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
On April 9, a quote was received from Midwest Playscapes for the purchase of play equipment and the
installation and construction of a natural playground at Wood Lake Nature Center. Midwest Playscapes is a
vendor of Earth Scape that manufactures high-quality playgrounds made from logs and natural materials. The
Earth Scape product was chosen to match the aesthetic of Wood Lake while providing a more traditional
playground feel.
The pricing uses the SourceWell system of State of Minnesota contract pricing. The project is part of the
Wood Lake Nature Center Building Project, which has already secured full funding from a variety of
sources. Staff has reviewed the quote and has found the outline to meet the requirements and desired
specifications of the play area.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By Motion: Accept the quotation from Midwest Playscapes for $206,852.50 for the construction of a
natural playground at Wood Lake Nature Center and authorize the Recreation Services Director to
proceed with the project.
BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION:
A.HISTORICAL CONTEXT
During the community engagement process for the design of the Wood Lake building, it was identified that a
playground at the Wood Lake Nature Center building would make the space more welcoming for all residents. A
playground in the space will provide an introductory experience to those who have not previously explored the
park and do not feel as comfortable in a natural environment.
Earth Scape manufactures playgrounds using natural materials including wood and logs. These materials are
more appropriate for a playground in a natural setting. The Wood Lake playground design includes poured-in-
place resilient surfacing which makes the playground significantly more accessible to people of all abilities. The
design uses color blocking to create islands connected by the play equipment with a mix of traditional features
like slides and bridges along with natural features like climbing poles and a log picnic table.
B.EQUITABLE OR STRATEGIC CONSIDERATIONS OR IMPACTS
Impact:
The nature play area at Wood Lake Nature Center will be an amenity that is free to the public, as is the nature
center itself.
People:
The Recreation Services Department has an ongoing commitment to provide environmental education,
programs, and facilities that are accessible and inviting to all people, regardless of ethnicity, gender
identification, or economic status. Wood Lake Nature Center is uniquely located to provide access to nature for
all members of our community.
Consequences:
The Recreation Services Department has been proactive about creating a welcoming environment for all people
and we have seen diverse participation. Staff realizes that these facilities are made possible by all of Richfield
residents and strives to take steps to ensure that our participants reflect that diversity and individuality.
Strategic Outcome Considerations:
A new nature play area is a vital piece of ensuring the success of Wood Lake's environmental education
programs into the future and another way to welcome visitors to experience outdoor recreation.
C.POLICIES (resolutions, ordinances, regulations, statutes, exc):
For projects over $75,000, cities must require contractors to provide a performance bond and a payment bond.
In addition, Minnesota Statute 471.425 requires that each contract between the government entity and a prime
contractor to require the prime contractor to pay subcontractors within 10 days of receipt of payment from the
government entity. This provision is included in the attachment to the proposal. Both of the requirements were
included in the RFP.
For projects ranging between $25,000 and $100,000, municipalities may award a contract for construction,
alteration, repair, or maintenance work to the vendor or contractor offering the best value under a request for
proposals as described above, and in state statutes section 16C.28, subdivision 1, paragraph (a), clause (2),
and paragraph (c).
D.CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES:
In order to synchronize the construction of the play area with the work being performed on the new Wood Lake
building, processing the quote at this time would help prevent delays and enable the building project contractor to
work with Midwest Playscapes on a play area construction schedule.
E.FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Funding for the new play equipment is budged as part of the Wood Lake Nature Center Building Project, which
is fully funded from multiple sources:
HUD Community Project Funding Grant: $3,000,000
State of Minnesota 2023 Appropriations/Omnibus Bill: $12,000,000
Local Sales Tax (General Obligation Bond sale): $11,000,000
Richfield Capital Improvement Funds: $225,000
$210,000 has been budgeted for the playground portion of the building project.
F.LEGAL CONSIDERATION:
There are no legal considerations for this item.
ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S):
Reject the quotation and delay the coordination of the Nature Play Area construction and the ordering of equipment.

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION:
Consideration of a resolution authorizing submittal of a Tax Base Revitalization Program grant
application for environmental investigation on the American Legion property (6501 Portland Avenue).
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The American Legion property, located at 6501 Portland Avenue, (Property) has been identified for
redevelopment for several years. In December of 2024, MSP Commercial and Lupe Development (Developer)
purchased the Property from the Legion and have begun working on plans to redevelop the Property. W hile
plans are in the preliminary stages, part of the planning process is to address any contamination issues in the
building and the soil. Initial soil borings indicate poor soil conditions that warrant further investigation. The
Developer is seeking $35,000 in financial assistance through a Tax Base Revitalization Account (TBRA)
Seeding Equitable Environmental Development (SEED) grant from the Metropolitan Council to pay for this
investigation.
Metropolitan Council funding through the Livable Communities Act (LCA) Program requires the City to be the
applicant and the administrator of the funds. W hile no plans have been formally submitted for review,
investigation and clean-up of the building and the site will be required for any future development, and financial
assistance like TBRA funds help to move the work forward. SEED grants are intended for sites located within
equitable development areas with or without a specific development project underway but that show potential for
future job growth or housing development.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By Motion: Approve a resolution authorizing submittal of an application for a Tax Base Revitalization
Account Seeding Equitable Environmental Development grant to conduct an environmental
investigation of the soils at the American Legion site, 6501 Portland Avenue.
BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION:
A.HISTORICAL CONTEXT
The Property has been identified for redevelopment for several years. In 2021, the City undertook a
master planning process for the area surrounding Veterans Memorial Park and identified the Property as
an important site for future redevelopment that should work in harmony with the major public amenities of
the park and area transit opportunities.
MSP Commercial and Lupe Development purchased the property in December 2024 and have been
developing plans to redevelop the Property as multi-family housing.
The work that needs to be undertaken includes taking additional soil borings to collect soil samples to
determine the magnitude and extent of impacts, soil vapor probes to determine if soil vapors are present
beneath the site and test pits to determine if the concrete/debris referenced in several of the previous
boring logs is significant in soil.
As part of the redevelopment, a significant volume of soil will need to be excavated and transported
offsite. Determining the nature of the soils for export now will help establish a final construction budget and
whether an environmental cleanup grant will be needed.
B.EQUITABLE OR STRATEGIC CONSIDERATIONS OR IMPACTS
Redevelopment of the Property provides an opportunity to further goals of the Strategic Plan, including
diversifying the tax base and maintaining Richfield as an affordable place to live.
Climate resilience is also a desired outcome of the Strategic Plan, and environmental investigation and
cleanup of contaminated sites can further this goal.
The Property is located within an equitable development area as defined by the Metropolitan Council.
C.POLICIES (resolutions, ordinances, regulations, statutes, exc):
It is the City's policy to seek outside funding when possible to support redevelopment that may further
community goals.
The Developer is unable to apply for funding on their own; the LCA requires that grant awards through the
LCA only be awarded to municipalities that participate in the Local Housing Incentives program.
D.CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES:
The application is due May 1, 2025.
The Developer is working on developing plans for the site and anticipates bringing forward its concept to
policymakers at a June work session.
E.FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The application would request $35,000 in TBRA SEED funds.
The City would provide an in-kind contribution in the form of staff time to prepare a subgrantee agreement
with the Developer, review invoices, and submit requests for payment to the Metropolitan Council.
F.LEGAL CONSIDERATION:
The City will sign a Grant Agreement with the Metropolitan Council agreeing to following all program
requirements, and in turn, the Developer will sign a subgrantee agreement with the City agreeing to follow
those same requirements.
The SEED grant is specifically designed for sites with or without a specific development project
underway. Supporting investigation of the soils on the Property does not require City support for a specific
plan.
ALTERNATIVE RECOMMENDATION(S):
Decide not to authorize an application for a TBRA SEED grant for environmental investigation at the Property.

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION:
Consider adoption of a resolution rescinding a special assessment for diseased tree removal in the
amount of $5,268.73 incorrectly levied against 6414 12th Ave S (PID# 26-028-24-24-0030) in 2024.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
The diseased/hazardous tree assessment roll that was adopted by City Council in October 2024 and
subsequently certified to Hennepin County contained an assessment in the amount of $5,268.73
for 6414 12th Ave S (PID# 26-028-24-24-0030) which was included in error.
This occurred because the address was incorrectly entered into the system and staff did not catch the
error prior to certification.
The error was brought to staff attention by the homeowner at 6414 12th Ave S when they received their
statement for property taxes payable in 2025.
Staff consulted Hennepin County Assessment staff and was advised that the proper means to cancel this
errant assessment was through a resolution adopted by City Council. Once adopted and received by
Hennepin County, the assessment would be cleared and an updated tax statement will be generated and
provided to the property owner.
The City will assess the diseased tree removal charges to the correct property in fall 2025 for taxes
payable beginning in 2026.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By Motion: Adopt the resolution rescinding a special assessment for diseased tree removal in the
amount of $5,268.73 incorrectly levied against 6414 12th Ave S (PID# 26-028-24-24-0030) in 2024.
BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION:
A.HISTORICAL CONTEXT
See executive summary.
B.EQUITABLE OR STRATEGIC CONSIDERATIONS OR IMPACTS
None.
C.POLICIES (resolutions, ordinances, regulations, statutes, exc):
Hennepin County policy requires a resolution from the City Council to modify or cancel a certified special
assessment.
D.CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES:
The first payment for 2025 property taxes is due May 15th and makes the adoption of this resolution at tonight's
meeting timely.
E.FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The fund that pays for diseased tree assessments operates like a revolving fund with money going out to
pay for new tree removals and money coming in from previously levied special assessments.
The assessment being rescinded will be certified for collection to the correct property in fall 2025 for taxes
payable beginning in 2026.
No money was lost as a result of this error, rather, our collection of money owed to the City will be delayed
by one year.
F.LEGAL CONSIDERATION:
The City Attorney was consulted when this situation arose and is supportive of this strategy to correct the error.

the assessment will be cleared and an updated tax statement will be generated and
provided to the property owner.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the City Council of the City of
Richfield, Minnesota:
1. The special assessment in the amount of $5,268.73 for 6414 12th Ave S (PID# 26-
028-24-24-0030) adopted by City Council on October 8, 2024 and certified to
Hennepin County in November 2024 is hereby rescinded.
2. The City Clerk shall forthwith transmit a certified duplicate of this resolution to the
Hennepin County Assessments division so that the assessment may be cancelled
and a new tax statement can be generated and delivered to the property owner at

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION:
Consider adoption of a resolution of support for Richfield's Community Project Funding grant
application in the amount of $4,200,000.00 for the Richfield Emergency Water Interconnect project.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Community Project Funding Background
City staff was advised by Minnesota Congressional District 5 Representative Ilhan Omar's office that requests
are being accepted for the Community Project Funding (CPF) grant program for Fiscal Year 2026. The CPF
program allows Congress members to directly fund projects that will positively impact their community with the
logic being that members know the specific needs of their district most acutely.
Representative Ilhan Omar's office encourages submission of and will be selecting projects that are well into the
planning process. Additionally, projects that can clearly demonstrate community support and engagement will be
prioritized. Members are required to provide evidence of community support that were compelling factors in
their decision to select the requested projects per the rules of the CPF process adopted by Congress.
Water System Interconnect
Public works staff will be submitting a CPF grant application for construction of the Richfield Emergency Water
Interconnect project. The Public Works Department has been exploring the possibility of a water
system interconnect with a neighboring City since 2009. At its most basic, this project will establish a
physical connection with an alternate water supply system (Minneapolis) that can be leaned upon in
the event Richfield's water supply system is unable to meet demand for any reason. A project of this
type brings with it a greater level of resiliency and redundancy for the distribution of clean drinking
water to the consumers and business owners within the City of Richfield. The present-day challenges
of aging infrastructure, increasing costs for system maintenance and repair, and the need for certain
redundancies, has created the need to think differently about how we maintain our critical services.
Public works commissioned a study in 2022 to explore which neighboring City would be best suited for an
interconnect and by which means. The results of the study revealed that an interconnect with the City of
Minneapolis, through the installation of an 18-inch pipeline, is the best candidate. The interconnect will serve
as both an emergency service, as well as a secondary source to allow for maintenance at the water treatment
plant or within the distribution system if and when necessary.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By Motion: Adopt the resolution of support for Richfield's Community Project Funding grant
application in the amount of $4,200,000.00 for the Richfield Emergency Water Interconnect project.
BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION:
A.HISTORICAL CONTEXT
See executive summary.
B.EQUITABLE OR STRATEGIC CONSIDERATIONS OR IMPACTS
This project and grant application are done in pursuit of the following strategic priorities:
Sustainable Infrastructure: Striving to ensure that City infrastructure supports service needs and external
revenue sources are pursued when available.
Operational Excellence: Ensuring that our current and future infrastructure has the operational capability
to deliver essential services (water).
C.POLICIES (resolutions, ordinances, regulations, statutes, exc):
A resolution of support from City Council demonstrates Richfield community support and is required in order to
submit a complete application.
D.CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES:
The application is due on April 25, 2025, and adoption of the resolution of support at this meeting is essential if
an application is to be submitted.
E.FINANCIAL IMPACT:
Receipt of a CPF grant will greatly reduce the financial burden to be born by Richfield for construction of
this project.
The exact amount of grant funds available through the CPF program is unknown.
The total project cost is currently estimated to be $5,000,000.

ITEM FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION:
Consider a resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Manager to execute MnDOT Agreement
#1051546, the I-494 Phase 1 Maintenance Agreement.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
MnDOT Agreement #1051546 is a multi-party agreement between MnDOT, Hennepin County, Bloomington,
Edina, and Richfield. This agreement outlines maintenance obligations for all agencies along the I-494 corridor
who have infrastructure being constructed as part of the ongoing Phase 1 project. MnDOT has not
distributed the final version of the agreement for execution, but the final agreement is not expected to
change substantively from the draft agreement provided herein.
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
By Motion: Approve a resolution authorizing the Mayor and City Manager to execute MnDOT
Agreement #1051546, the I-494 Phase 1 Maintenance Agreement.
BASIS OF RECOMMENDATION:
A.HISTORICAL CONTEXT
The ongoing I-494 construction project contains local infrastructure facilities that will be owned and/or operated
by the city after the completion of construction. This agreement outlines which agency is responsible for all
aspects of the maintenance and operation of the completed infrastructure, including but not limited to snow
removal, stormwater treatment, and future replacement.
B.EQUITABLE OR STRATEGIC CONSIDERATIONS OR IMPACTS
This is standard city business required on every cooperative construction project.
C.POLICIES (resolutions, ordinances, regulations, statutes, exc):
Cooperative construction projects always entail a maintenance agreement laying out the responsibilities of each
party to the project.
D.CRITICAL TIMING ISSUES:
Typically, maintenance agreements are executed prior to letting of a project. Since this project is using a Design-
Build contracting method, MnDOT allowed the other affected agencies to delay the execution of this agreement
until design was finished, to ensure that all aspects of the design were properly conveyed. MnDOT has requested
this agreement be executed at this time.
E.FINANCIAL IMPACT:
The city's cost share for this project was $2.6 Million. The execution of the agreement will add additional ongoing
maintenance and operational expenditures to the annual city budget. The exact cost of these additional activities
is unknown. Many of the activities the city would undertake are already accounted for in existing
budgets, however there are several miles of new trails, lighting, and a new pedestrian bridge that
will need to be maintained into the future.
F.LEGAL CONSIDERATION:
This agreement has been reviewed by the City Attorney and they will be available to answer any questions.
