SPECIAL PRESENTATION

Subject: Recognition and Presentation of 2018 CAFR Award for Excellence in Financial Reporting

Prepared By: Brian Grimm, Finance Director

Meeting Date: February 3, 2020

Item: Attached is our Certificate of Achievement that we received from the Government Finance Officers Association for our 2018 Comprehensive Annual Financial Report. Each year Cities have the opportunity to submit their financials to the GFOA to be reviewed for this award. GFOA awards these Certificates to Cities whose annual reports achieve the highest standards in government accounting and financial reporting.

The City has received this award since 2004 and plans to submit its 2019 financial report again once it is completed. GFOA also sends an annual award (pin/button that gets attached to our plaque) that we display in our reception area.

I would also like to express my thanks to Angie Boll, Associate Accountant and Dawn Motzko, Utility Billing Specialist for all of their hard work throughout the 2018 audit and reporting process. Without their help and others the City would not be able to obtain this prestigious award.

Recommended City Council Action: Accept 2018 CAFR award from GFOA

Fire Chief Greg Pederson with the Mound Fire Department overviewed thehandouts that where presented to the Council. There was discussion on whatthe department does besides putting out fires and administering first responseto accidents.

Pederson stated that recruiting and retaining firefighters is a large concern forthe department. There are currently 39-40 firefighters in the department butthere is a constant need for equipment and training.

There was discussion on what the fund balance is at the end of 2019. There isapproximately $400,000 in the fund balance.

There was discussion on the firefighters’ pension plan.

Minnetrista Work Session Minutes – January 21, 2019 Page 2 of 2

There was discussion on funding options. Whether to purchase outright, rent to own or lease. There are probably other options that could also be looked into regarding funding options.

There was discussion on trying to keep the payment consistent and to work on

a plan that would not have peaks and valleys allowing for a more manageable payment plan.

Bruce commented that purchases for trucks or other equipment should be

approved by the City Council during their budgeting process. She feels that once the bond payment is done in 2023, the City should stop paying the amount of the bond debt payment.

Most of the Council felt that the bond payment should stop being paid in 2023

and if the Fire Department wants to purchase vehicles or equipment it should be done during the budgeting process.

Council directed Bruce (liaison) to bring the discussion results to the next

Mound Fire Advisory meeting. 3) Adjourn

4a) Approve City Council Regular Meeting Minutes from January 6, 2020. Tschumperlin commented that on page 4 of the draft minutes of January 6, 2020, third paragraph down under Christopher Dennis there is a word missing from the paragraph. The sentence should read, “He commented that the board does not want the assessment

for the out lots to be assessed to the HOA but would rather have them spread out amongst the remaining 37 units and that way the residents would have a longer time to pay it off.” Linquist stated that she would make that change.

There was discussion about how many units this project would affect. There was also discussion of the last paragraph under 6a) Res. No. 005-2020…, on page

5 of the draft minutes. There was consensus to remove that paragraph in its entirety. Linquist will take out the paragraph, “There was a brief discussion on if the bid comes

back for the street improvements lower than anticipated, the Council should discuss choosing which roads will receive the extra lifts of bituminous.” Motion by Tschumperlin, seconded by Mortenson to Approve City Council Regular Meeting Minutes from January 6, 2020 with the noted changes.

The total estimate of probable project costs is in the amount of $301,319.20, which includes a 5% construction contingency and 20% indirect costs. The majority of the Halstead Drive mill and overlay project is proposed to be paid using Municipal State Aid Construction Funds; the City’s current balance is $1,263,086.57.

The estimated local project costs associated with the project total $19,969.29 and include paving the local street approaches and installation of chimney seals within the City’s sanitary sewer.

TOTAL $301,319.20

The bid opening is scheduled for February 11, 2020 and the award of contract is scheduled for March 9, 2020.

Bruce questioned if the 20% indirect costs outlined in the staff report were due to mark-ups that WSB included.

During the review of the City’s Water Supply Plan, the DNR noted that the

City needs a monitoring well within the Tunnel City-Wonewoc aquifer.

A monitoring well is used to provide the DNR with monthly water level data so that the agency can observe the drawdown (usage) of the aquifer.

In the past, the south test well which is located northeast of Highway 7 and Kings Point Road was used for this purpose, however, this well was sealed in May, 2014 due to the development of Woodland Cove.

The Well Supply Plan includes proposed language in Appendix 2, stating “The City of Minnetrista plans to construct an observation well in the middle

of the City wellfield completed into the Tunnel City-Wonewoc Aquifer at the

VARIANCE: Application from Angela Baker for a front yard setback variance at 945 Maple Crest Drive; R-1 Low Density Single-Family Residence Zoning District; PID# 12-117-24-21-0006.

Nickolas Olson, City Planner David Abel, Community Development Director

February 3, 2020

Overview: Angela Baker (the “Applicant”) has made an application for a setback variance to reduce the required front yard setback from 35 feet to 29.1 feet to allow for the addition of a covered front porch on to the existing home at 945 Maple Crest Drive (the “Property”).

Background: The Applicant is currently working on a major remodel to the existing 1970’s two story home. Originally, the Applicant was going to include the proposed covered front porch as part of the remodel. However, the existing home is already located at the required front setback of 35 feet. Therefore, no additions could be made without the approval of a setback variance first. Due to the need for a variance and the timeline associated with such a request, the Applicant split the project up into two phases. Phase I is underway and Phase II is pending review of this variance request.

Variance Request: City Code Section 505.05 Subd. 9 allows the City to issue variances from the provisions of the zoning code. A variance is a modification or variation of the provisions of the zoning code as applied to a specific piece of property. A variance is only permitted when:

a. The variance is in harmony with the general purposes and intent of thisordinance.Section 505.03 Subd. 1 outlines the specific purpose and intent of the City’szoning ordinance.

The City’s zoning ordinances are intended to promote the general health, safety,and welfare of the inhabitants of the City by means of proper use of land andstructures. This is often accomplished through the preservation of light, air,privacy, and safety. The Applicant’s request is consistent with this intent becausethe design and location of the proposed covered front porch preserves light, air,privacy, and safety while not negatively impacting the surrounding properties andstructures.

Item 4f

Page 35: CITY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA February 3, 2020 7:00pm 1 ... · The City of Minnetrista will deliver quality services in a cost effective and innovative manner; and provide opportunities

Mission Statement: The City of Minnetrista will deliver quality services in a cost effective and innovative manner and provide opportunities for a high quality of life while protecting natural resources and maintaining a rural character.

b. The variance is consistent with the comprehensive plan.The basic intent of the comprehensive planning process is to provide a well-founded and coordinated decision-making framework to guide both public andprivate development and community improvements. In this regard, thecomprehensive plan represents the development framework to guide and directfuture land development decisions within the City. The Land Use Plan is anarrative and graphic representation of the community’s land use and growthmanagement goals and policies that provides the background and rationale forland use designations as represented on the Proposed Land Use Map.

The Property is guided for long term residential use per the 2040 ComprehensivePlan. The Applicant’s proposal to construct a covered front porch is consistentwith the long range plan for the Property, while not impacting the views fromadjoining streets and properties, which is one of the goals of land use planningfound in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan.

A variance may be granted when the applicant establishes there are practical difficulties in complying with this ordinance. Practical difficulties, as used in connection with granting a variance, means:

1. The property owner proposes to use the property in a reasonable manner notpermitted by this ordinance.This factor means that the landowner would like to use the property in a particularreasonable way, but cannot do so under the rules of the ordinance. It does notmean that the land cannot be put to any reasonable use whatsoever without thevariance.

The Applicant is proposing to add a covered front porch on to the existing home,which currently lacks a covered front entry. It is reasonable to allow for theApplicant to have a front entry to their home where they are protected from theelements. The proposal is a reasonable use of the Property.

2. The plight of the landowner is due to circumstances unique to the propertynot created by the landowner.The uniqueness generally relates to the physical characteristics of the particularpiece of property, that is, to the land and not personal characteristics orpreferences of the landowner. When considering the variance for a building toencroach or intrude into a setback, the focus of this factor is whether there isanything physically unique about the particular piece of property.

The existing home sits atop a hill which has a gradual slope from the north and amore drastic slope to the south and east with a creek/drainage way at the bottom.The south and east are the areas located in the building pad for the Property. Thetopography presents a challenge for a porch addition, particularly one centered onthe front of the home, which is currently located at the minimum front yardsetback requirement of 35 ft. These unique circumstances were not created by the

Mission Statement: The City of Minnetrista will deliver quality services in a cost effective and innovative manner and provide opportunities for a high quality of life while protecting natural resources and maintaining a rural character.

Applicant and make it challenging to develop a conforming proposal on the Property.

3. The variance would not alter the essential character of the locality.Under this factor, consider whether the resulting structure will be out of scale, outof place, or otherwise inconsistent with the surrounding area.

The covered front porch, in addition to the rest of the renovations, is beingproposed to help increase the curb appeal of the home while maximizing use andfunctionality. The resulting structure is consistent in size with the homes acrossthe street on Jennings Bay, as well as the neighboring homes to the east alongMaple Crest Drive, which represent the surrounding area.

Neighborhood Comments: Notices were sent out to all property owners within 500 feet of the subject property prior to the public hearing. Staff has not received any comments or concerns regarding this request as a result of the notice.

Planning Commission Recommendation: The variance request was presented to the Planning Commission on January 27, 2020. At that meeting, the Planning Commission held the required public hearing and made a recommendation. A summary of the recommendation is as follows:

Motion by Vickery, seconded by Vars to recommend the City Council approve the requested setback variance at 945 Maple Crest Drive based on certain findings of fact outlined in the staff report and subject to the following conditions:

1. The construction shall be consistent with the plan and survey documentssubmitted with this variance application;

2. Any tree removal shall be done in accordance with City Code and is subject tocertain replacement requirements;

3. Any required grading shall maintain existing drainage patterns or improve theexisting drainage of the lot and adjacent lots;

4. The Applicant obtain all necessary permits and approvals from the City andother applicable entities with jurisdiction over the Property prior to anyconstruction;

5. The Applicant is responsible for all fees incurred by the City in review of thisapplication; and

6. The variance approval is valid for one year from the date of approval and willbecome void and expire unless a building permit has been issued for the site.

Motion passed 6-0. Absent: Pettis, Young and Forbrook

Conclusion: The City Council should review the staff report and the recommendation of the Planning Commission. After review, the City Council should consider the entire record before it prior to making a motion. Along with making a motion, findings of fact should be established which support the motion. Possible findings of fact for approval are as follows:

Mission Statement: The City of Minnetrista will deliver quality services in a cost effective and innovative manner and provide opportunities for a high quality of life while protecting natural resources and maintaining a rural character.

1. The requested variance is in harmony with the purpose and intent of the City’szoning ordinances because the design and location of the proposed covered frontporch preserves light, air, privacy, and safety while not negatively impacting thesurrounding properties and structures;

2. The requested variance is consistent with the City’s comprehensive plan becausethe Property is guided for long term residential use per the 2040 ComprehensivePlan. The proposed covered front porch is consistent with the long range plan forthe Property while not impacting the views from adjoining streets and properties;

3. The Applicant proposes to use the Property in a reasonable manner because acovered front entry to their home where they are protected from the elementsrepresents a reasonable use of the Property;

4. The requested variance is the result of a unique circumstance not created by thelandowner because there are topographical limitations to the Property and theexisting home location is already at the minimum 35 ft. front setback; and

5. The requested variance will not alter the character of the locality because theresulting structure is consistent in size with the homes across the street onJennings Bay, as well as the neighboring homes to the east along Maple CrestDrive.

Recommended Action: Motion to approve the requested setback variance at 945 Maple Crest Drive based on certain findings of fact outlined in the staff report and subject to the following conditions:

1. The construction shall be consistent with the plan and survey documentssubmitted with this variance application;

e. We brought in plans to remodel the existing home with a couple of additions. Part ofthe project was to install the front porch addition. Staff immediately notified us that theporch would be non-compliant due to the roof and wall structure around it. Due to thenon-compliance, we opted to obtain permitting for the rest of the project and only thefront deck portion of the porch scope of the project. As such, we are seeking relief toobtain approval to install a roof/railings for the front porch.

f. We are generally congruent with the purpose and intent of the Minnetrista City Code.The general intent is to not have front porches extend in front of the home. The existinglot conditions do not allow for a porch area in the back of the house due to grades andthe stream cutting through the back yard. In addition, the front of the house overlooksJennings Bay, but the lot conditions and existing home placement does not allow for fulluse of this view. In order to provide a better access to the front of the home we areadding a front deck which is fully compliant. We are merely seeking to add the roofstructure above the compliant deck to allow better access and also bolster the curbappeal from Jennings Bay.

g. The deck addition is permitted and compliant under current City Code. The ruggedterrain of the lot and creek in the back yard are not conducive to putting a porch on therear of the house. We are seeking to add the roof over the top of the compliant frontdeck to allow better access to the main home entrance as well as bolster curb appealfrom both Maple Crest Road and Jennings Bay.

h. This variance request is based solely on efforts to make the property useable for ourclient for their long-term family home. The home has been in the family for a longperiod of time. The terrain of the rear property with the steep grades and creek limitthe options for creating any sort of porch structure to the front of the home. The frontdeck addition is compliant with City Code so it is only the roof over the deck thatbecomes non-compliant. With the current layout, putting the porch on the front of thehouse boosts the curb appeal, bolsters the neighborhood curb appeal and maximizesthe views of Jennings Bay as well.

Page 40: CITY COUNCIL MEETING AGENDA February 3, 2020 7:00pm 1 ... · The City of Minnetrista will deliver quality services in a cost effective and innovative manner; and provide opportunities

i. This property is unique in topography, lot size and house placement on the lot. Therewill be no negative impact to the neighborhood on any of these items. The front of thehouse is far enough away that it will not in any way impact the views, lighting, etc. forany of the neighboring property owners. Rather than decrease any neighboringproperty values, this will increase neighboring property values as it will greatly improvethe overall curb appeal to this property which will increase values for this property aswell as the adjacent neighborhood homes.

RESOLUTION NO. 015-2020

RESOLUTION APPROVING A FRONT YARD SETBACK VARIANCE OF 5.9 FEET TO ALLOW FOR THE CONSTRUCTION OF

A COVERED FRONT PORCH AT 945 MAPLE CREST DRIVE

WHEREAS, the City of Minnetrista (the “City”) is a municipal corporation, organized and existing under the laws of the State of Minnesota; and

WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Minnetrista has adopted zoning and subdivision regulations, per Chapter 5 of the Municipal Code, to promote the orderly, economic and safe development and utilization of land within the city; and

WHEREAS, Angela Baker (the “Applicant”) has made an application for a variance to reduce the required front yard setback from 35 feet to 29.1 feet for the addition of a covered front porch on to the existing home on the property generally located at 945 Maple Crest Drive (the “Property”) and which is legally described as:

Lot 3, Block 1, Maple Crest Estates, Hennepin County, Minnesota; and

WHEREAS, on January 27, 2020, the Minnetrista Planning Commission considered the requested front yard setback variance, held a public hearing and, after consideration of the record before it, voted 6-0 in favor of recommending approval of the setback variance request; and

WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed the application, as submitted, and has made the following findings of fact:

1. The requested variance is in harmony with the purpose and intent of the City’s zoningordinances because the design and location of the proposed covered front porch preserveslight, air, privacy, and safety while not negatively impacting the surrounding propertiesand structures;

2. The requested variance is consistent with the City’s comprehensive plan because theProperty is guided for long term residential use per the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. Theproposed covered front porch is consistent with the long range plan for the Property whilenot impacting the views from adjoining streets and properties;

3. The Applicant proposes to use the Property in a reasonable manner because a covered frontentry to their home where they are protected from the elements represents a reasonable useof the Property;

4. The requested variance is the result of a unique circumstance not created by the landownerbecause there are topographical limitations to the Property and the existing home locationis already at the minimum 35 ft. front setback; and

5. The requested variance will not alter the character of the locality because the resultingstructure is consistent in size with the homes across the street on Jennings Bay, as well asthe neighboring homes to the east along Maple Crest Drive.

BUSINESS/DISCUSSION ITEM

Subject: Resolution No. 017-2020 Adopt Reimbursement Resolution for 2020 A Bonds

Prepared By: Brian Grimm, Finance Director

Meeting Date: February 3, 2020

Item: Attached is a reimbursement resolution in conjunction with the planned 2020 A bonding/financing. The estimated principal cost of the project at this time is included in the resolution. This bonding issue is a budgeted item for early in 2020 and will finance items associated with the new water tower project as well as budgeted equipment items for the last 3 years budgets

The plan would be to issue this bond for up to the $2,500,000 for the water tower listed in the resolution. For the 2020 Budgeted equipment certificate items the amount is $232,500 This amount would be combined with the up to $230,000 that was authorized with the budgeted CIP for 2018 and the 2018 reimbursement resolution and the 2019 Budgeted and reimbursement resolution amount was $281,200. The reason we held off on issuing an equipment certificate in 2018 or 2019 is the amount would have been relatively small for going out for stand-alone financing.

Ultimately for the equipment certificate portion of the bond the recommendation is to finance $500,000 out of the $743,700 for equipment that has been authorized in 2018 and 2019 and included in this resolution for 2020. You will see this amount ($500,000) included along with the water tower portion above as part of the pre sale report in the subsequent agenda item.

Presale Report City of Minnetrista, Minnesota

February 3, 2020 Page 1

Executive Summary of Proposed Debt

Proposed Issue: $3,090,000 General Obligation Bonds, Series 2020A

Purposes: To finance the construction of a new water tower for the southwest area of the City and to reimburse the City for prior equipment purchases.

Water Tower Portion (MS 444). Debt service will be paid from waterrevenues.

Equipment Portion (MS 410/412). Debt service will be paid from advalorem property taxes.

Authority: The Bonds are being issued pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapters:

444 (water revenue pledge)

410/412 (equipment bonding authority)

475 (general bonding authority)

Chapter 444 allows cities to issue debt without limitation as long as debt service is expected to be paid from water and sewer revenues.

The maximum that an entity can issue equipment certificates for at any one time without publication of a resolution allowing for a reverse referendum is limited to .25% of estimated market value. The Equipment Portion of the Bonds does not exceed .25% of the estimated market value in the City.

The Equipment Portion counts against the City’s General Obligation Debt Capacity Limit of 3% of market value. The Equipment Portion does not exceed the City’s debt limit.

The Bonds will be general obligations of the City for which its full faith, credit and taxing powers are pledged.

Term/Call Feature: The Bonds are being issued for a term of 20 years. Principal on the Bonds will be due on February 1 in the years 2021 through 2040. Interest is payable every six months beginning February 1, 2021.

The City has previously levied taxes for the February 1, 2021 interest payment on the Equipment Portion of the Bonds.

The Bonds will be subject to prepayment at the discretion of the City on February 1, 2029 or any date thereafter.

Bank Qualification: Because the City is expecting to issue no more than $10,000,000 in tax exempt debt during the calendar year, the City will be able to designate the Bonds as “bank qualified” obligations.

Bank qualified status broadens the market for the Bonds, which can result in lower interest rates.

Rating: The City’s most recent bond issues were rated by Standard & Poor’s. The current ratings on those bonds are “AA+”. The City will request a new rating for the Bonds.

If the winning bidder on the Bonds elects to purchase bond insurance, the rating for the issue may be higher than the City’s bond rating in the event that the bond rating of the insurer is higher than that of the City.

Basis for Recommendation:

Based on our knowledge of your situation, your objectives communicated to us, our advisory relationship as well as characteristics of various municipal financing options, we are recommending the issuance of general obligation bonds as a suitable financing option for the following reasons:

The City’s policy and past practice has been to finance improvement projectswith this type of debt issue.

This is a cost-effective option among the limited other options available tofinance these types of projects.

General obligation bonds provide the lowest possible interest cost.

Method of Sale/Placement:

We will solicit competitive bids for the purchase of the Bonds from underwriters and banks.

We will include an allowance for discount bidding in the terms of the issue. The discount is treated as an interest item and provides the underwriter with all or a portion of their compensation in the transaction.

If the Bonds are purchased at a price greater than the minimum bid amount (maximum discount), the unused allowance may be used to reduce your borrowing amount.

Premium Pricing: In some cases, investors in municipal bonds prefer “premium” pricing structures. A premium is achieved when the coupon for any maturity (the interest rate paid by the issuer) exceeds the yield to the investor, resulting in a price paid that is greater than the face value of the bonds. The sum of the amounts paid in excess of face value is considered “reoffering premium.” The underwriter of the bonds will retain a portion of this reoffering premium as their compensation (or “discount”) but will pay the remainder of the premium to the City.

For this issue of Bonds, we have been directed to use the net premium to reduce the size of the issue rather than increasing the net proceeds for the project. The resulting adjustments may slightly change the true interest cost of the issue, either up or down.

Review of Existing Debt:

We have reviewed all outstanding indebtedness for the City and find that there are no refunding opportunities at this time.

We will continue to monitor the market and the call dates for the City’s outstanding debt and will alert you to any future refunding opportunities.

Continuing Disclosure:

Because the City has more than $10,000,000 in outstanding debt (including this issue) and this issue is over $1,000,000, the City will be agreeing to provide certain updated Annual Financial Information and its Audited Financial Statement annually, as well as providing notices of the occurrence of certain reportable events to the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (the “MSRB”), as required by rules of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC).

The City is already obligated to provide such reports for its existing bonds and has contracted with Ehlers to prepare and file the reports.

Arbitrage Monitoring: Because the Bonds tax-exempt obligations, the City must ensure compliance with certain Internal Revenue Service (IRS) rules throughout the life of the issue. These rules apply to all gross proceeds of the issue, including initial bond proceeds and investment earnings in construction, escrow, debt service, and any reserve funds. How issuers spend bond proceeds and how they track interest earnings on funds (arbitrage/yield restriction compliance) are common subjects of IRS inquiries. Your specific responsibilities will be detailed in the Tax Certificate prepared by your Bond Attorney and provided at closing.

We recommend that you regularly monitor compliance with these rules and/or retain the services of a qualified firm to assist you.

Small Issuer Exception ($5M or less) – The City expects to qualify for the small issuer exception to arbitrage rebate on the Bonds.

Investment of and Accounting for Proceeds:

In order to more efficiently segregate funds for this project and maximize interest earnings, we recommend using an investment advisor, to assist with the investment of bond proceeds until they are needed to pay project costs.

Ehlers Investment Partners, a subsidiary of Ehlers and registered investment advisor, will discuss an appropriate investment strategy with the City.

Risk Factors: Utility Revenue: The City expects to pay the Bond debt service with utility funds. If utility revenue is inadequate, the City may have to levy taxes to pay debt service on the Bonds.

GO Pledge: Because the Bonds will be general obligations of the City for which its full faith, credit and taxing powers are pledged, if the annual utility revenues and tax levy collected are not sufficient to pay the debt service payments, other City funds will need to be used.

Other Service Providers:

This debt issuance will require the engagement of other public finance service providers. This section identifies those other service providers, so Ehlers can coordinate their engagement on your behalf. Where you have previously used a particular firm to provide a service, we have assumed that you will continue that relationship. For services you have not previously required, we have identified a service provider. Fees charged by these service providers will be paid from proceeds of the obligation, unless you notify us that you wish to pay them from other sources. Our pre-sale bond sizing includes a good faith estimate of these fees, but the final fees may vary. If you have any questions pertaining to the identified service providers or their role, or if you would like to use a different service provider for any of the listed services please contact us.
