Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: "Move approval to participate in the HUD Transitional Housing Pro�ram and designate the Minneapolis/St. Paul Housing Fund to work with HUD on implementation of the program contingent upon complianee with the following conditions: � � - Limited to one HUD house within the Cit of Ho kins unless � _ inerease by City Council action � Occu an.ts of house shall be restricted to families ���' - Housin rovider shall terminate an tenant leases within 30 days after notice by City - Cit shall have abilit to terminate ro ram with 0 da notice to housing_ provider - To riorit for use of house shall be iven to Ho kins residents - The housin rovider shall rovide the Cit with uarterl reports on pro�ram utilization". Overview. West Hennepin Human Services is approaching a number of cities to encourage them to participate in the HUD Transitional Housing Program. Through this program, vacant, foreclosed HUD homes would be used to provide short-term housing to homeless families. The Minneapolis/St. Paul Family Housing Fund would do the actual leasing of the homes to be used in the program from HUD. They would in turn sub-lease the housing unit to Simpson Transitional Housing Program. Representatives of this group would do the aetual administration of the program. Primar_y_Issues_to Consider. o Is there a need for this program? o Where would a home be located? o How will this program impact a neighborhood? o Will the City be able to terminate the program problems? o Who would run the program? o How many homes would we have in Hopkins? Su ortin Information. o Proposal For Transitional Housing o Minnesota Coalition For The Homeless Fact Sheet �l � ��. � � •.'�J �� _.r' � � ; j. - / � _�_, �4 ,�. James D. Kerrigan� ��� Planning & Economic Development Director if it creates CR:89-18 Page 2 Background. HUD presently has a number of vacant houses throughout the metropolitan area. Many of these homes have been returned to them as a result of FHA/VA mortgage foreclosures. Under the HUD Transitional Housing Program, some of these houses would be leased at a minimal cost to families in housing crisis situations. The leases would be on a short-term basis, usually no longer than 6 months. Families utilizing this program would also receive counseling to help them move into mainstream independent living. Before HUD will implement the program within a community there must first be City approval. Analysis. Based on the proposed recommendation, the City Council has the following issues to consider: - Is there a need for this program? Bruce Larson with West Hennepin Human Services stated that there is a need to provide short-term housing in crisis situations for families in this area. Presently there are very limited programs of this type available. - Where would a home be located? Homes for this program could be located anywhere within the City. Under the program HUD would send the City a list of available homes. The City would review the list to eliminate homes that do not meet locational criteria (ie. near public transportation, shopping, etc or that need major repairs). - How will this program impact a neighborhood? It is hoped that this program will not have any impact on the neighborhood where a house is located. In talking with Bruce Larson from West Hennepin Human Services, he stated that they would rather not even have the surrounding neighbors know that the subject house is being used in conjunction with the Transitional Housing Program. It is hoped that this will help to prevent a stigma being placed on a family using this house that they are somehow different than other people in the neighborhood. Each family using the house would have very strict occupancy rules. Any violation is cause for eviction. Simpson Transitional Housing staff maintain frequent contact with a leasing family to ensure compliance. 0 F1 r'i�0(�'(�E�t�L t=17�=� "f�"�F-1Na i TS 7 C�Ir!(-1'�.. �-li..7l.J� J: I�1Ci f='lJf�:l='L����_� � �I-I�i��� F�urpc��� nf thi s> �i~apos�l i s to p�~ovi d� ir�nsi ti nn�l housi ng for _���l�ur-b��ri homc:�1 ess -Fami J. i e� hy �_�ti 1 i� i. ng the D�p��r-tme�nL �f Ho�isi ny ��nd Ur-b�-�n l7evP]. opm�ni '� vac�an�k homes.

The Fund, a private, non-profit corporatio�, has received 517 mitlion from McKnight for the purpose of helping the cities to provide affordable housing for lou and moderate income families. The Fund has atso raised approximately $4 mitlion from various founda- tions and corporations to finance the creation of tong-term aftordable housing for very lou income single persons vulnerable to hometessness (More Than Shelter Arogram)_ Also, the cities have deposited 311 miltion with the Fund to carry out its programs. This money resulted from the restructuring of tWo mortgage revenue bond issues. 7he joint programs of the Fund and the cities are summarized below: HomeoWnership Programs 7he cities have sold 5395 million of sing(e family mortgage revenue bonds i� five separate bond issues beginning in June, 1981. The proceeds are being used to make S,D00 fixed rate, 30-year mortgage loans. The rate has varied from 8 1/4X to 11 7/8X. The current rate is 9.OSX. The Family Housing Fund is using 510.6 million of HcKnight money a�d S4_7 million of Urban Development Action Grant (UDAG) funds to make equity loans, graduated payment Loans, and ctosing cost Loans in conjunction with approximately 7,500 of the mortgage loans. The Fund's loans have generally been available only to families uith children; the equity loans reduce the incomes served by the mortgage loan from the $25,000 to �35,000 range to the 515,000 to 525,000 range, depending on the price of the house. This homeounership program has stimulated the neu construction of approximately 120 separate devetopments scattered throughout the cities (primarily tounhomes and single family homes), and has also financed the sale of older, existing homes oWned by sellers over 50. Generally, new homes Were required to meeL energy conservation standards and older homes uere often required to mect city housing codes_ Thus the homeounership programs not only help lou and moderate income families become homeowners, but also improve city neighborhoods, upgrade the housing stock, relieve hardships on elderly homeouners Who need to sell their homes, conserve energy, and pro- vide jobs for construction uorkers. As of December 31, 1987, 3,857 mortgage loans had been approved; 1,381 of these buyers received additional assistance from the Famity Housing Fund_ The group that received family Housing Fund loans not only had louer incomes and more children, but also included a larger proportion of single parent families and minorities_ Of the 3,857 loans closed, 1,718 were neuly built and 2,139 uere existing homes_ Multi-family Housirn� Pro�rams The Fund has also worked uith the cities to create rental housing opportunities for very low- income households. As of December 31, 1988, the Fund had made loans to 82 multi-family housing developments containing a total of 2,256 units. The Fund supports threc types of multi-family projects: (1) housing for lou-income families (6G projects); (2) alternative housing for elderly persons living in single family homes (4 projects); and (3) housSng for very lau-income single adults vulnerable to homelessness (14 projects). 7he Fund's loans uere usualty characterized as equity [oans With terms and conditions designed to make each project economically via6le uhile offering belau market rents. Of the 82 projects, 26 were neu construction, 53 Nere rehabilitation, and 3 uere existing scattered site. Twenty-three of the 82 were cooperatives, 42 involved Section 8 rent subsidies from the federal government, and 48 uere developed by non-profit sponsors, most of them neighborhood-based. Most of the units uere affordable to lou and very lou-income families. (A total of 718 units had Section 8 rent subsidies.) The 82 projects involved 545.2 million of mortgage financing fram a variety of sources (mostly tax-exempt bonds) and �13.9 million of city subsidy funds. The Fund loaned a total of g15,730,685, of uhich $8,683,587 came from McKnight. Preservation of Existing Lou income Nousin� The Fund tries to preserve the liveability and affordability of existing lou-income housing. For example, the Fund has loaned a total of 5382,892 for energy conservation improvements on 22 buildings containing a total of 702 units. 7he Fund has esta6lished a 5300,000 emergency loan pool for existing housing ouned by cooperatives and non-profit sponsors. As of December 31, t987, the fund had loaned a total of $227,129 from this pool to four projects containing 184 units. Finally, the Fund loaned 5300,000 to help the TCHDC and a neighborhood-based non-profit deve[oper acquire a 24 unit Section 8 project that uas vutnerabte to conversion to market rate. TWin Cities Housin� Develo�ment Cor oration (TCHDC The Fund has created and capitalized a separate non-profit development corporation (the Tuin Cities Housing Development Corporation) to sponsor the development or acquisition of low-income housing. The TCHDC noN ouns nine projects containing 145 lou-income units. Seven of the nine are owned in partnership With neighborhood-based non-profits. d1s2.1/dlsk/4 � r S���IP S �� N � �I'�I�T�I�I ��� ���TSIN�^ Tlie Ke�� io LVDEPEII'DENCE hfr.

Re�r�seel--�S f �� f 88 ll 6 of 6 + r CITY OF HOPKINS MEMORANDUM Date: January 6, 1989 To: City Council From: Craig Rapp, City Manager Subject: Parking situation - 6 feet east of Blake Clinic At the November 1, 1988 Council meeting, the Council expressed a desire to retain 6 feet of the City parking lot east of the Blake Clinic that was apparently about to be lost to Bob Miller as part of his redevelopment of the Blake Clinic. Further, staff was directed to negotiate a reasonable price for the property. As the attached correspondence with Mr. Miller indicates, we are currently considering a variety of alternatives for settling this issue. Mr. Miller has already completed the construction and landscaping portion of his project adjacent to our parking area, effectively completing his part of the bargain. From the City's position, staff is comfortable with pursuing one of two courses of action. A simple purchase of the 6 feet at a market value of $2,500 - 3,000. This would complete our negotiations. In addition, Mr. Miller would be obligated to pay for the electricity costs of a light located in the parking lot. As a second alternative, we feel comfortable waiting for a period of 3- 4 months to see if there are mutually beneficial interests related to development on the north side of Blake Clinic. 4� As you know, demolition of the is imminent and in fact, will be completed by May. By that time, staff will have completed a study of parking and pedestrian improvements along the alley south of Mainstreet between 7th and 11th avenues as requested by Mayor Milbert. These two events will have an impact on how the public area will relate to Mr. Miller's property and further, will tell us whether it is in our best interest to work with Mr. Miller to discuss the reuse of the property north of the Blake Clinic. J ' . Y You should be aware that Mr. Miller has a preliminary concept for an expansion of the Blake Clinic to the north of the existing structure. The staff feels that it would be appropriate to discuss this concept with Mr. Miller in order to give him the Council's reaction to this idea. It should be stressed that the purpose of the meeting Tuesday is to review mutual interests and discuss ideas that both Mr. Miller and the City have, related to these properties. This is not intended to be a negotiating session. Should the Council not desire to discuss concepts and ideas with Mr. Miller, the staff will complete negotiations separately. As a final note, Mr. Miller has requested a verbatim transcript of the Council's discussion of this issue from November 1st. We are providing a copy of it to you for your information. � � C I T Y January 3, 1989 O F H O P K I N S Mr. Bob Miller Merriam Park Company 1400 Energy Park Drive Suite 24 St. Paul, Minnesota 55108 Subject: Parking situation - 6 feet east of Blake Clinic Dear Bob: This letter will confirm our discussion today and my invitation to you to attend the January lOth Council Worksession at 9:15 p.m. As we discussed, the City is very interested in finalizing negotiations related to the 6 feet of property on the east side of the Blake Clinic. In your letter to me dated November 23, 1988, you summarized the three alternatives that we discussed for accommodating the City's use of the 6 feet east of the Blake Clinic. In your letter you indicate that trading 6 feet on the north side of the building for the 6 feet on the east side would be the only option that would have real benefit for you. As I stated on the phone, I believe that this alternative might have some merit, particularly in the event that you wish to expand your building to the north. Speaking for the staff, we would be interested in continuing a discussion of this concept to see if there are mutual benefits. Unfortunately, we are in the midst of planning for the expanded use of the properties adjacent to the east-west alley south of Mainstreet, therefore, it would be too early to give a commitment on this option. I would be in favor of simply buying 6 feet at a mutually acceptable price if it is important to you to conclude this issue now. In our previous conversation with you we provided you with a market value estimate of the property in question. In any event, we would like you to attend the Council � Worksession on January lOth to engage in a general discussion with the City Council and staff about options and ideas for the future. This is not intended to be a 1010 First Street South, Hopkins, Minnesota 55343 612/935-8474 An Equal Opportunity Empioyer negotiating session but rather and opportunity for you, me and the City Council to throw out ideas and discuss mutual interests. Please call if you have any questions concerning this issues.

Leaving the stripping for the lot as is and allowing people to drive through between the 2 buildings as they do now. The 6 ft then allows plenty of room to get into and out of the parking spaces. The City would then lease the 6 ft for 8 years. The City would maintain the lots i.e., snow removal. The Security World parking would be for them exclusively. The Blake Building would have use of the parking next to their building. 2. A replatting of Lot 1/2 26, 27 and portion of 25 and selling the 6 feet to the City. A replatting of Lots 1/2 26, 27 and portion of 25 and trading 6 feet east for feet north of our existing lot line of lot 25. To date we have fulfilled our comment to the Council Motion of November 1. 4Ve have pulled back 6 ft west on our parking and landscape plan and construction is complete.

Therefore, we would like to continue the landscaping around the north of the building next spring and be able to maintain the parking there. So we will need the 6 feet to complete the project. We continue to have an interest to expand the Bla!<e Building and would be able to do so more dramatically if the City wishes to sell the entire lot 25 or a major portion. Please let me know when you plan to present this to Council and will you send me a copy of your comments. ✓J�iy�, i Bob A�iller ]400 Enzr�v Park Drive, Suite 24 St. Paul, MN 55108 (612) 6444726 800-338-16�5 Taken from the tape of the November 1, 1988 Council meeting. PARKING SITUATION EAST OF BLAKE CLINIC Kerrigan - At this point we are bringing this to the Council for an update of whats happening. Just so your aware. We have discussed this briefly . We are in the process of acquiring 911 - 9th Avenue South structure and ah and staff is looking at whats happening in that overall area if we improve our site and the parking situation and everything else and recently Councilman Redepenning was informed by developer to the south of that property that he was about start doing some landscaping and curbing and that type of work east of the clinic property in fact its going to be started this week. This will have a potential impact on th k' the to the o er par ing spaces that are east of the alley line over there about eight parking spaces and then, as a result of this work, it may be very difficult if not impossible to utilize those spaces. We have looked at it from a staff level and feel that there are a couple of possible different options maybe to make the situation so that these spaces are usable. The developer of this property is going to do landscaping and curbing all way to his property line to the east. This will benefit his building and improve his building and whatever and uh however he has stated that he is agreeable to looking into the possiblility of possibly reducing down that landscape area and curbing etc and would be willing to work with the city in trying to negotiate some type of deal that would be acceptable to both parties. At this time, all we are doing is bringing this forward to the Council so that you are aware of the situation. I guess we have a couple of different options --- to do nothing and just let things happen or you can direct the staff to try to work with tHe developer and see if there is something that can be worked out that would be agreeable to all parties.. Milbert - yet do we? Kerrigan - At this point I guess we don't own that property No we don't. Milbert - I don't think we should hold the developer up in doing what he wishes to do on his own property. Certainly work on the building is important. I don't see where we are going to lose any spaces. If anything we could make that real compact cars and not lose one space. We got 4o feet from wherever that front line of the car is to where that survey stake is. We'll put it that way.There is 40 feet there. For compacts thats 20 feet more than you need. I think it could be worked out...work with them. But I guess �� maybe we better realize that those lots of the clinic were 129 feet deep instead of 125. Four feet does make a difference but I think it can be worked out. I don't think we should hinder these people from going ahead if they want to get on it next week,fine. I think we should take a little longer look at that I know that the club to the�south wants to improve the alley etc. and if we had to put in some compacts in that one row, I don't think we'd lose one space in there. Kerrigan... The way we look at it right now is that probably we'd need about, in order to maintain it and work it the way its functions right now with full size vehicles probably about 5 to 6 feet. Milbert..... Thats why I say, compacts are 5 feet shorter and you won't lose one even if you have to tip the lines just a little bit....just a little bit. If you lose any you lose one thats all. So take a good look at that because we might, hopefully some day we can expand parking all the way over to 7th so it looks like one parking lot all the way though there and we've got a similar situation where the city owns part of the property over at Bursch's for a full block there and somehow we just left it in common and it seems to benefit the owner to the south as well as the businesses. I think that unifying that parking from 7th to 11th were people even on both sides would really benefit Mainstreet you know coming up with something nice clean and uniform. I showed a little sketch to this group where he was at but I haven't gotten back to these guys with it yet. Redepenning...... I think one question I would like to ask the remaining or everyone on the Council is that. Clarify for me, have we made the decision that we do not want to work with the developer, that we don't wan� to hear what he's got to do or have we made a decision to say let him do what he wants to do? What I'm trying to say is, I don't recall the developer ever saying that he was going to do this or do that. I guess my question is "Do we like the parking the way it is. Do we like to be able to use the entrance and the exit between the two buildings and if we do like it that way, have we ever bothered to ask the developer if that can remain the way it is or are we just accepting because no one has ever asked him that he is going to change it? Milbert - I guess the only thing we've gotten is that wen staff told us that the lease had been terminated. Was that correct? First of all and then this here where he wanted to start next week on curbing. Thats the only two things I've heard. Evidently they have been talking about it. / Rapp.......Maybe I can answer that somewhat. Obviously we know about it. We brough it to your attention. The point of bringing it up tonight was to find out if it was appropriate for us to work with the developer to avoid this situation if possible. I guess we made an assumption that it isn't desirable to have him encroach in an area that is now being used as a parking lot. He has expressed some desire to work with us. We don't know what that means, if it means that he wants something that we don't feel is appropriate, I guess we'd come back and tell you that. If its something that we can work out that doesn't necessarily impinge on the city too greatly, I guess we'd come back and tell you that we can work out an arrangement with the developer and I can't even tell you what that might be at this point, but we might be able to work out something so that we can retain the existing parking lot the way it is and not lose anything. I can understand what the Mayor is saying. We could probably accommodate what he wants to do, but the point of us bringing it up tonight was to say can we have the authority to go ahead and work with developer informally to see if we can avoid having to encroach on the parking lot and come back and give you a recommendation. Redepenning ....I don't see what it can hurt for us to ask. Milbert..........Why don't you do that Redepenning....the developer what it would take for him to not disturb the parking the way it is and to see if it is workable instead of just assuming that there is absolutely nothing we can do. Rapp .............Maybe I'll add one thing to that too...In a normal circumstance, had we already completed the property purchase and finalized all of that we would have more than likely tried to work something out and come to you with a proposal. As the Mayor correctly points out, we haven't completely finalized that although the decision has been made to purchase the property. I guess we find ourselves somewhere in that gray area between being the property owner and having all those decisions made and the circumsance. normal Shirley .....I guess I don't have a good perception of exactly of what is being infringed on. Some of the sketches I have seen are not clear to me. Theres just a piece of what we're looking at to a point where I guess I don't know what is happening and I would really like to. ......Do you have the whole thing? Anderson......the building goes on on top, with the entrance coming in from here. Then we couldn't use it. A drawing was put up on the board � � Kerrigan pointed out the parking spaces that were in question. Shirley ....Something that is escaping me right now is how our ownership, potential ownership of the property to the north will effect this. Kerrigan....Probably it really doesn't. We are kind of overlooking that whole area because, with our property to the north, we are looking at ...basically the Council has agreed to putting it in some parking. We're looking at the overall parking in that area....how it functions. Shirley.....So whether we buy that property or not is imaterial Kerrigan.....Ya, if for whatever reason the purchase falls apart or something, it really doesn't have an impact on this. Rapp........It may be another, give us another alternative in terms of working out a solution but we may have enough leverage or enough things to offer at our disposal currently with ownership of the parking and the fact that we snow plow or whatever to work out some kind of agreeable compromise. (tape turned over --some dialogue missed) Kerrigan - The ability of taking and if this is curbed right where the developer is talking of restriping that entire lot and moving everything over further to the east. Thats a possibility .. Redepenning.......What kind of dollars are we talking about? we are probably on a real ball park guesstimate. We figure without any major moving of the planting and stuff probably around $3,000. It would have to be sealcoated and restriped and we'd have to be able to physically do it. We don't know whether we'd be able to to it or not. Milbert. ...... We'd have to restripe anyway. Come spring we'd have to restripe. Redepenning.......I guess tahat I'm saying, if thats the way it adds up is that if there is not an agreement thats workable the solution is simple. If we cant make an agreement we will have to move to restripe. I can't see why we can't make a decision to say, yes, we like the parking the way it was. We liked this driveway as a public thoroughfare and give the staff the opportunity to sit down and work with the developer and if nothing is workable, we will go to step 2. Shirley..... Let's do that. Milbert.....I think about the lot in between ...very similar to the one at Genter Drug. No, Hance Hardware and Snyder's Drug. We have control of that sort of lot by easement or whatever it is so that we tag cars on it and do this sort of thing and this is another lot very similar, See. That's their lot and we maintain it. Shirley.....Which lot are you talking about. Milbert.....Between Snyder's Drug and Rapp..........The dry cleanersl Milbert......That's a private lot, see. We tie the two of them together. Anderson.....Thats what we do with the Blake lot Milbert......I know its been 25 years Redepenning ......Can I ask the developer one question, since he is here? If we make that motion, will the steam shovels stay out of that parking lot tomorrow? Bob Mi11er........I don't know what you are talking about. Redepenning.......Will there not be any digging. Will this be on hold until you and the staff can get together and start talking about this? Bob Mi11er........Are you inviting me up? Redepenning.......Yes Bob Miller........Why don't you leave that on and I'll refer to it. Because I think there's a misconception. First of all there is no developer involved in it. My partner and I bought these two clinic buildings and we were fortunate enough to find a renter for one that has thirteen employees and now there are thirteen needs for parking and plus three company trucks but there are thirteen new employees in the City of Hopkins. We bought these properties May lOth and notified the City May 24th, sent them a survey and notified that since we hold a warranty deed, on one piece of property that we would cancel the parking arrangement because we were either going to sell the property or develop it out of the clinic use and if someone had a private use with a great need of parking we would want to be flexibile to offer them that. There was no other intent in cancelling the lease. I think you are right, Bob, if the City is plowing it, it is to our advantage to continue it. This particular person who leased it, leased it for a long period of time and he � � demanded the parking. In fact he is a little parking shy quite frankly. Thursdays the whole lot is parking shy. So the situation is not necessarily that the parking is available there. What you see on the east side of the Blake building is a different situation. We have built a handicapped ramp and those lines ( pointing on the map) the lines that run here are handicap ramp. You enter the ramp, come up between the buildings. There's a drop-off area and enter the handicap ramp and get into the building. And on the east side then we feel that it should have two parking areas here. What does the handicapped person do with their car while they are wheeling these people up. There is a very tight fit between the building, this line, and if we had a overview which I didn't bring so we're at a tight back-out arrangement. These have to be just about the way they are. To give us this parking space and to give us a better appearance to the building that is not overly attractive, we hired David Kirscht and Associates to do a drawing to tie in the ramp with this parking which is very necessary for this building and thats why this space then becomes not really an add on but an enhancement to utilize the ramp, to utilize this parking and get people to the entryway that we have here. This spot we think is important. The question that we entered in the recent sent survey...the question that we presented to the city was basically one of discussion. I met with Craig Rapp, Steve Mielke and Jim Kerrigan September 7th and said we're going to have to start construction before the season is over. Well, I talked to Jim Kerrigan October 3rd, sent another survey, and had some final plans drawn and here it is November lst. The answer is we have to do something now or wait until spring. The cement people won't guarantee anything after tomorrow. They wanted to be in there the last week in October and we said that we would wait for this Council meeting.� What we are concerned about is that if the Council wants to say 6 feet is important for a parking lot. If you don't want to say it, well, that's fine. If we know that we will continue on our way. I'm not certain, like Jim says, 2'm not certain what the Liberty Bar property has to do with this parking lot except there is going to be a higher use again for that if the City sells it to someone or develops it or what have you. We are concerned with parking. It takes about l4 spots to make this thing go if it were not in to a B 2. In a B2, then of course we could develop the whole piece of property and that would put more pressure on this parking lot. So we think that it may make sense to get as many parking spots on our own property as we can. Milbert.......and you need them for your tenants, don't you. You need your parking for your tenants. What we're saying is that the lot that you got there, you need them for your tenants, right. You just said one tenant wanted 13 plus parking spaces. I mean your own parking. You need what you've got right./ Bob Miller...... Well theres parking there now and we are using it, Milbert.....Thats what I say, if he wants to put that in we can restripe it. $3,000 is easier than trying to take parking away that he needs. He needs his own parking now. Rapp........I'm not sure I follow though. Maybe if I ask Bob.....You'd lose the availability of at least that one spot thats related to the handicapped area, but you would then be taking away the availability of some fairly prime parking or at least restricting the prime parking just directly to the east on that city lot. Now, granted that different type of parking is not on your property, but it would be accessible and usable. It seems to me it would be the most desirable public parking adjacent to your property. Bob Mi11er........Are you offering that then? Rapp............I'm just saying it's there already and by moving your development to the extreme of your property line, you are encroaching on parking that has already been developed. I mean, granted it is not under your total control but it is there and it is usable and it is certainly, as you point out except for Thursdays, largely available. Bob Mi11er........Wel1 if that could be long range park, I know that his attitude is that whatever the need of that community for parking if it is all day or three hours or two hours that the city would go along with that. And if thats what you are saying, if that can be used for this. Rapp .............The concern that I had is that it is a blue lot already. I think there are permits available for that lot... and this would . Essentially all that would do is encroach on the ability to use the lot as an all day permit lot because it would cut back on the usability and availability of it. Bob Miller .......I guess we are all sensitive to words. I don't know what encroachment means. Rapp ..............I don't mean to to imply that you don't have a right to do it. All I'm saying is that it seems to run counter to your needs. On the one hand you are saying that you have parking needs and it is obvious you do. You are developing the property ta expose potential but at the same time there is already developed public parking adjacent to the property that if you weren't developed to the property line or to the fullest extent and thats what we are � talking about here. What can we do to recapture or preserve the existing public parking to serve your needs primarily but also to accommodate what the city wants to get out of our property. Bob Miller.......I think thats a response that is easy to make on this particular case. If thats your response, I'll take it as that. The other thing is what you brought up Chuck.... the use of the space between the two buildings. That is now considered public road basically, as everybody uses it to come up and park. Its striped that way. The city striped it to invite traffic between the two. That has been brought up by the tenant because the tenant has also talked about what if these properties ...if one were sold then that was changed conservately so that it would be just for this particular use. We are concerned about that because all the traffic going up is wear and tear on the surfact so I suppose if the city were to restripe it. It would be nice to restripe it right away. Rapp ..............Hence, our request to have the staff negotiate. Milbert....Why don't you do that Rapp .............A question I have. The last question. Hopefully the last question. We have a need to make a decision about concrete and locations tomorrow. I think it is reasonable that we can work out something. It is very difficult to work out a deal and arrangement....something acceptable on the basis of the Council and you over the table. If the Council wishes to do that, I think thats fine. I think it would be easier if the staff could set down and talk about a lot of different alternatives and work out a solution. Its a question of timing on your part. Bob Miller.....There is no secret about what I'm going to do when I leave this table. I'm going to call the contractor. I'm going to call him at home. He's either going to going to put the curb at the lot line and cut that tomorrow morning or he's going to cut it 6 feet in. - Redepenning......With all of this going back and forth. I don't want to get involved in the negotiation. Obviously, at this point is what we are going to trade off or buy or sell or whatever. What would it take from us, from the Council for you to call that contractor and tell him to go 6 feet back, basically for us to say we want to negotiate? we want to keep the parking lot the way it is? Bob Mi11er......If you want to keep the parking lot the way it is with the striping the way it is, yes. People coming in between two buildings and so on. � Redepenning......yes Bob Mi11er......We11 then I guess we lose one parking space. I think right now for us to give up a parking space and give up 6 feet, since we have to replat this Kritzler........Isn't it more than a parking space though? I think I heard you say that that's an off loading place for the handicapped and a handicapped ramp. That's a real concern. Shirley........Bob, I...maybe this is a different issue, but I'd have some concern about the way that its going to function as a ramp for handicapped people. As someone who has driven a handicapped person around for some years, the business of letting someone out on the passenger side as you got here does not strike me as being the best way to handle it. For what its worth and its probably an aside and simply complicates what we are talking about here now. Bob Mi11er.......That sheet you have in front of you is a drawing. Do you see where it shows squares? Shirley.......yes. Bob Mi11er.......That will be at surface level. Shirley.......o.k. Bob MI11er.......And then, do you see the little bench? Shirley........uh huh Bob Mi11er.......Then beyond...then you see something like its blocked....framed in... you see something going east and west. Shirley.......That's the ramp? Bob Mi11er.....That's the ramp there. One by twenty grade. - The only way to get a ramp into this building...you have to loop it over. Shirley......Switch back Bob Mi11er.....To get a switch back in you then enter the building and a new entry will be built so you will look at the building at ground level and a door up at the ramp level. You have to have enough room when you park the wheel chair so that the flap is not on this Rapp.........Your new door is right there. Are these stairs � here, Bob? ' M h B. Mi11er.....Yes, thats stairs Kirschner.....I thought those stairs in the corner. I thought you said those were for handicapped. B. Mi11er......Thats after unloaded. Al1 the loading and unloading should be done in front. The reason.. Kritzler......Oh, I see B. Miller. There shouldn't be any cars parked there. We are recommending that they park after they unload. Rapp .............I would be willing to make a suggestion here that you can respond to, if thats appropriate. I would submit that it is in our best interest to retain the parking lot as it exists right now and that we have authorization to work out a cost or some sort of arrangement with the owner of the property whether thats in dollars or services, or a combination thereof to accommodate that end. The point being, there might be a lot of things that the city can do to work out with Mr. Miller that might not completely be a sale of property or exchange of whatever and I think it would be very difficult to work all that through at the table tonight. However, establishing the principle that we want to keep the parking lot and telling him, yes, we want you to draw the line 6 feet back the way you show on the plat is something that he needs to have tonight and that I would recommend that you do. I'l1 throw that on the table Redepenning......I so move that we do just that Kritzler.........I second it The motion carried unanimously.

In another area of the city, Fred Jones is out on his daily walk. Suddenly, he stubs his tce on a crack in the sidewalk and falls. If they were injured as a result of these falls, there is a good chance that Mrs. Smith and Mr. Jones will bring claims against the city for payment of their damages. When is a city legally responsible for damages when someone fatls on the sidewalk? ls there anything that a city can do to reduce the risks of such falls or to reduce the possibility that the city will be responsible for those damages? Is the adjacent property owner ever responsible for the condition of the sidewalk? Minnesota law Under Minnesota law, the city has the duty to exercise reasonable care to keep its sidewalks in a safe condition. The sidewalks are in the city street right-of-way and are the city's primary responsibility. The city is not an insurer of its sidewalks, however, which means that someone who sues the city must prove that the city did something wrong or was negligent. In order to do this one must show that: there was a "defect" in the sidewalk; that the city had actual or constructive notice of the defect; that after receiving such notice, the city failed to remedy the detect within a reasonable time; and that the failure caused the person's injury. The defect There is no law, rule, or case that has defined what constitutes a "defect" in a sidewalk. In one case, Brittian v. City of MinneapoGs, the court said a city is not liable for every '`mere inequaliry or irregularity in the surface of the way." Courts har+e looked at such factors as the size of the difference, its location, and if it is in a heavily traveled area in determining if there was defect. Similarly, in regard to ice and snow, there is a nile that says that a city is not responsi6le if a sidewalk is "merely sGppery." There must be evidence that the snow and ice was uneven or rough or that there was a dangerous accumulation. Another consideration Trees in sidewalks can cause prob- lems unless a city uses a treatment such as the one at left. Photos by Brenda Piatz. s Minnesota Cities for Gability for ice and snow is whether it was the result of natural or artificial conditions. A city may be more likely to be found responsible if it was created by artificia] conditions rather than by natural weather conditions. Notice Actual notice exists when sorneone told the city about the particular prob- lem before the fall. Conswctive notice exists if the city would have known about the problem if it had done reason- able inspections. Failure to remedy the defect As in the case of the defect, there is no set figure as what constitutes "reasonable time. " In a recent case concerning ice and snow, Niemann v. Northwestern CoUege, the court held that a reasonable time can begin after a snowstorm ends. The cause of the injuries Even if there was a defect and the city had notice of it and failed to correct it, the person still must show that the �e sidewalk or shovel the snow, the defect or the city's actions were the city will do it and charge back the cost cause of the injuries. on the owners property taxes.

Such ordinances usually say that if the property owner dces not repair May 1988 Reducing risks To reduce the risks of injury on sidewalks and at the same time reduce the possibility of successful claims, the city should follow these steps. 1. Determine what the city's cri- teria are for repair and replace- ment of sidewalks. 2. Develop a sidewalk inspection program. The inspection program would involve city workers and officials actually wallcing the sidewalks and not- ing any problems that they see. If the city has a limited number of personnel, it may want to focus first on wel!- traveled areas such as downtown dis- tricts. In addition to formal inspections, the city should train employees who are in a position to observe the side- walks while performing other duties to note any problems with the sidewalks and to report them to the appropriate personnel. 3. Keep inspection records. City employees should date and sign all inspection records. It is important that the city has records because by the time someone makes a claim, the employees may not be with the city any longer or may not remember. The records should also indicate what area of the city the employee inspected, any problems he/she discovered, and what the city will do or did about the problem. 4. Remedy any problems. The city could repair the problem itself or send a notice to the adjacent 7 property owner telling him/her to repair it and stating that if the owner fails to do so within a certain time, the city will correct the problem and charge the property owner for the cost of the repair. If a condition presents an imme- diate danger to people, the city shouid put a warning device over it. Employ- ees ehoWd keep records of all repairs. 5. Develop a complaint policy. The city should devetop a poGcy on how to respond to complaints about sidewalk problems. This poGcy should include making a record of the com- plaint and a procedure that the city will follow after receiving the complaint. The records should indicate who noti- fied the city of the problem, the date, what the person said was the problem, and what the city did in response to the complaint. The city should inspect the problem azea and decide if under the city's criteria, the sidewalk would need any repairs. The record should include a note as to whether there is a problem, and if repairs were neces- sary, or if the city put a warning device over it. . - .. . .. , � .

Many options are avail- able for the sidewalk azeas surrounding trees and the city shoutd examine them carefully before deciding on which to use. The city council should document that it did consider different options and what factors were important in making its final decision. Such factors could be cost, maintenance, and advice from professionals such as landscape architects. Water valve covers Another design issue that is the focus of many claims against cities is the placement of water valve covers in sidewalks. The adjacent property owner may be held responsible for such falls due to the covers or at least share the responsibGty with the city. if the city knows of specific problems or reoccurring problems, it should attempt to remedy them as soon as possible. The city could also pass an ordinance or resolution stating that the adjacent property owner is responsible tor the maintenance of the valve cover. Contracts and desi�s The city should keep records of all design and construction contracts for sidewalk projects. In some cases, the sidewalk problem may be the responsi- bility of the engineer, architect, con- tractor, or landscape azchitect and it is � � ���� , '� ` �. . �'•'w • . _ .. ,. ".h'� . . . important to know who they were and what the specific contract said. As with other contracts, the city should ensure that there are hold harmless or indem- nify clauses in the sidewalk contracts. It is difficult for a city to have perfect sidewalks and the law dces not impose a standard of perfecdon. A city must exercise reasonable care. Implement- ing sidewalk inspection and repair pro- grams shows that the city is concerned and that it is making an effort to maintain its sidewalks.

Wagemaker Law Office 106 South Ninth Street Olivia, Minnesota 56277 Telephone: 612-523-2161 Minnesota Citiea CITY OF HOPKINS MEMORANDUM Date: January 6, 1989 To: City Council From: Craig Rapp, City Manager Subject: Merit Pay Plan At the City Council meeting on January 3rd, a motion was made to continue the discussion of a merit pay plan until the Council Worksession of January lOth. Attached for your convenience is the original staff report submitted prior to the January 3rd meeting. A number of questions surfaced at the Council meeting regarding merit pay, specifically related to administration and implementation of the merit pay system. Merit pay is not as a separate compensation plan, but is part of the overall compensation system of the city. As you will recall, the City recently completed a comprehensive pay plan in conjunction with our Comparable Worth implementation process. A draft copy of the operating policies related to our compensation plan is attached for your review. The merit pay plan as proposed will effect two groups of employees: the 24 member Hopkins Municipal Employees Association (HMEA), and the 21 non-union employees (primarily supervisors). These 45 eligible employees represent just under 50% of all city employees. The proposed merit pay plan was devised in response to the management staff's desire to provide incentives for employees who exhibit excellent performance. Connected with this process has been an ongoing effort to improve the City's performance appraisal system and to increase the training of our supervisors who conduct the appraisals. Although we have not yet completed the overhauling of our system, it was agreed that we would undertake evaluations and distribute merit pay using the appraisal system currently in place. The affected employees understand this and have accepted it. Compensation is a complex issue with far-reaching implications. Money is not always a motivator, although we know from experience that inadequate compensation is a disincentive for employees at all levels of the organization. The management staff believes that a compensation system should: (1) provide a competitive salary rate for performance that meets standards (2) holds back salary from those who do not meet standards, and (3) give additional compensation for those who exceed standards. Staff believes that this approach will have the best chance of providing performance incentives in this era of tightly regulated salary administration. In order to deal with the fact that the HMEA contract contains a clause mandating merit pay, coupled with the expectation by non-union employees that they are eligible for merit pay, I recommend that this program be implemented for one year on a trial basis. This will allow us to meet our contractual requirements with HMEA, assess the problems in administration and implementation and report back on its future use. � December 27, 1988 RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING MERIT PAY Proposed Action. Council Rpt. 89-8 Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move that the Ho kins Cit Council ado t Resolution 89-7 authorizin the a ment of a 2% merit a increase to eli ible em lo ees. This action will allow the City Manager to authorize merit pay increases to employees who have met the requirements for merit pay, based on evaluations, in 1988. Overview. Many public organizations are following the lead of private business and instituting merit pay. The Arthur Young study suggested ways to implement a merit pay plan. The City has implemented a plan which calls for annual performance evaluations. These evaluations can result in an empZoyee receiving a merit increase. Staff is recommending that the merit increase amount for payment in 1989 be 2% of salary. If every employee who was eligible for a merit increase received an increase the total cost to the City would be approximately $28,000.

Page 2 Management has been working with city employees to improve performance and encourage excellence. The following steps have been taken to improve employee performance: o Joint management/employee meetings to address problems and obstacles to good performance. o A customer service committee has been created to examine methods of improving customer relations. o Greater efforts are being made to publicize and celebrate good performance. o Job evaluations have been instituted so that employees can better understand how well they are performing. Part of this process is to demonstrate that excellent performance has tangible rewards. The City Council is being asked to authorize additional compensation for those employees who have displayed excellent performance in 1988. Primar Issues to Consider. o How will this merit increase be funded? This program will be funded from the contingency fund. o Is the City required to provide merit pay? The City is obligated under the 1988 Hopkins Municipal Employee's Association (HMEA) contract to provide merit pay. o what employees are covered by merit pay? In addition to the members of HMEA, all non-union personnel are eligible for merit pay. o What are the implications of not providing merit pay? Aside from the obvious violation of the HMEA contract, the City would not be demonstrating its commitment to excellence. CITY OF HOPKINS Hennepin County, Minnesota RESOLUTION NO. 89-7 RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING MERIT PAY WHEREAS, the Hopkins City Council wishes to encourage excellence among City employees, and WHEREAS, one method to promote excellence is through financial rewards, and WHEREAS, the City has established a merit pay system to financially reward those employees who have demonstrated excellent performance, and WHEREAS, all non-union employees and members of the Hopkins Municipal Employee's Association (HMEA) are eligible for merit pay, NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the City Council of the City of Hopkins hereby authorizes funding of a merit pay system for non-union and HMEA employees. The City Council authorizes an increase of 2% to the salaries of qualified employees. Passed and adopted by the Council of the City of Hopkins, Minnesota, at a regular meeting of the Council held the 3rd day of January, 1989. JAMES A. GENELLIE City Clerk JERRE A. MILLER City Attorney DONALD J. MILBERT Mayor SECTION 5 PAY PLAN 5.1 ESTABLISHMENT OF THE PAY PLAN The City Manager shall be responsible for presenting to the City Council a uniform and equitable pay plan which shall consist of minimum and maximum rates of pay. The pay plan shall reflect an equitable relationship among the job classifications and shall be made after review of comparable worth points and the prevailing wage rates for comparable work in other public and private business. 5.2 ADMINISTRATION OF PLAN New Em�rlovees. Geneially, all new em�loyees shall be hired at the minimum rate of pay in the appropriate classification unless their qualifications �or other circumstances warrant placement at an advanced rate of pay. The recomrnendation to hire at an advanced rate of pay shall be accompanied by appropriate documentation from the Department Head that such action is to the benefit of the City, and must be approved by the City Manager. Employees, whose starting salary is at the minimum of their range, shall advance to the midpoint of their range according to the following schedule assuming they receive a satisfactory personnel evaluation: Ranges 1-4 - Two years to midpoint (in two equal steps) Ranges 5-9 - Three years to midpoint (in three equal steps) Ranges 10-13 - Four years to midpoint (in four equal steps) Employees, who are hired at a salary higher than the minimum but below the midpoint of their range, shall advance to the next highest step in their range affer successfully completing their probationary period. 'I'hey shall then advance -one step each year until they reach the midpoint assuming they receive a satisfactory personnel evaluation. Employees, who are hired at a salary higher than the midpoint of their range, shall receive no automatic increase at the end of their probationary period but will be eligible for merit pay. Em�loyees who have reached the top of their salary range shall continue to be eligible for merit pay. Any merit pay received after reaching the top of the salary range shall not become part of the employee's base pay. _Below Exgectations: An overall evaluation of Below Expectations will make an employee eligible for 70% of a Cost of Living Allowance beginning January 1. A mandatory review will be made in 60 days. An evaluation of Meets Expectations must be achieved in order for the employee to be eligible for the complete Cost of Living Allowance at that time.

Reclassifications due to promotions will result in an increase in pay to at least the minimum rate of pay for the higher classification, or their current rate of pay, whichever is greater. Any additional compensation will be based on qualifications and experience. This decision will be made by the Department Head. Reevaluations. A reevaluation of an em�loyee's job duties may result in a change in pay depending on the employee's new �ob responsibilities. Transfers. The rate of pay of an emplo�ee who transfers to a new position is determined by the pay range for that position and the amount of experience the transferring employee has in the new position. MERIT PAY IN HOPKINS Merit pay has a long tradition in the City of Hopkins. The following language is from the city eharter: Section 2.09. INTERFERENCE WITH ADMINISTRATION. Except as otherwise provided in this Charter, neither the Council nor any of its members shall dictate the appointment of any person to office or employment by the City Manager, or in any manner interfere with the City Manager or prevent him from exercising his own judgment in the appointment of officers and employees in the administrative service, but this shall not be construed to rohibit the Council from assin ordinances for establishin the merit s stem. Except for the purpose of inquiry the Council and its members shall deal with and control the administrative service solely through the City Manager, and neither the Council nor any member thereof shall give orders to any of the subordinates of the City Manager, either publicly or privately. Prior to 1988 the following Ianguage had been part of the HMEA contract for many years: Article III - DEFINITIONS MERIT INCREASE is an increase that occurs when the employee's salary level is adjusted on the step scale (horizontal) after a review of the employee's performance by the employee's supervisor. The following language is from the 1988 HMEA contract which the Council approved in July, 1988. Article III - DEFINITIONS, cont. , MERIT INCREASE is an increase that occurs when the employee's salary level is adjusted after a review of the employee's performance by the employee's supervisor. 10.2 An employee may be granted an increase in the basic hourly rate beyond the cost of living addition which is established in this Agreement by one of two ways during the Contract year: 1. Merit Increase; 2. Reclassification of position. v 10.3 Personnel Evaluations shall be conducted at the end of each calendar year. An evaluation made. by the employee's supervisor shall be submitted in writing to the employee and to the City Manager. Employees who have reached the midpoint of their ranqe are eligible for merit increases. Employees who receive evaluations which make them eligible for a merit increase shall receive the increase on January 1 of the following year. The City Manager shall set a single merit increase amount each year which will apply to all employees. In 1970 a merit pay plan was created for the Police Officers and the Sergeants. The sergeants and officers had to pass an examination to be eligible for the increase.
