Dear Mr. and Mrs. Fornell:
Thank you for participating in the City's recycling program. As an incentive to
recycle and to increase fire prevention awareness, the City rewards two residents
each month with their choice of an award of $25.00 or a fire extinguisher and/or
smoke detector(s).
Your residence was checked on Thursday, October 8, 2020, to determine if you had
your recycling bin out with your regular garbage. Your recycling was out and ready
for collection; therefore, you are one of this month's winners. Please contact me

MEMO
TO: Mayor and City Council Members
FROM: Eric Johnson,City Administrator
RE: Central Automotive—Connections 1 Park Dedication Fees
Summary:
As part of the continuing effort to amass financing for the Central Automotive construction, the City has received the attached request
from First State Bank and Trust, on the behalf of Central Automotive; they are requesting delayed payments of the required Utility
Connection and Park Dedication Fees over a period of 36 months. In this instance the fees total $109,215.38 as shown in the figure and
would typically be due and payable at the time of the final plat and signatures of the Development Agreement.
The total project cost is approximately$2,000,000 and to date Central Automotive has secured all Zoning Permits necessary to construct
the facility as presented.
2020 Rates
Connection Charges and Park Dedication Fees: Rate Per"Acre"1 Total Acres Connection Fee
As we know, the City collects these Fees as they support the necessary Water $ 14,571.00 $ 2.60 $ 37,884.60
long-term utility infrastructure in the City and is a method by which the City Sanitary $ 2,804.00 $ 2.60 $ 7,290.40
Storm $ 2,273.00 $ 2.60 $ 5,909.80
can apportion associated costs for access to such infrastructure. In other Total Utility Connection $ 51,084.80
words, as development occurs these are benefitted by such systems and
also have a duty to share in the cost of such systems. Park Dedication 1 The rate per acre also includes adensity value based ontype oflanduse-commerical,fesiderial multifamily,etc

density,traffic, noise,etc.so cities may implement efforts to mitigate these Fair Market vane
impacts including the establishment of parks or in lieu of this apply costs to of Property 10%of FMv Park Dedication Fee
benefit current systems. Of course, no one desires to pay these taxes, but $ 581,300.00 10.00% $ 58,130.58
they do correlate to the development and seeks to not burden other taxpayers for the subsidy of others.
Fundamentally it is a Loan:
Perhaps for lack of a better classification the delay requested, in-effect would be a three-year loan. The City's policy on Financial
Assistance typically requires an application fee of$3,000, closing fees and annual servicing fees. However,the City has not engaged in
loan parameters in this "small" magnitude—typically they have been multi-million issuances (Nolle, VSSA revenue bonds)where these
fees are comparatively small and where the City has continuing reporting obligations.
As this is a COVID-19 year and many cities are exploring ways to induce business operations, the application of a lower interest rate
would seem reasonable. And, considering the request for a delay or partial deferral, the City does not have an immediate need for the
payment and a limited delay would not cause a cash-flow burden to the City's Parks or Utility Operations. At this time the City is earning
around .01%for its one or two-year securities.
EXAMPLE:A three-year loan at 5.0%with no early payments would result in total interest payments of approximately$11,099.Of course,
0.0%interest would be zero;and points in-between with varying interest rates or payment dates... But at least that is the scale.
Recommendation:
Authorize an amendment of the Developer's Agreement to waive any application fees and allow up to a 36-month payment
timeline at zero (0%) interest with three equal payments, the first payment due at building occupancy and one-half remaining
balance being due on the first anniversary of such first payment (occupancy) and the total balance due on the second
anniversary.Any amounts not paid to the City would be enforceable under the general terms of the Developer's Agreement, but
would be clarified to also be assessable against the property with interest penalties of applied retroactively at 5.0%APR and
associated City costs to enforce.

Action Requested _Discussion, Possible Action
Background/Justification (Please indicate if any previous action has been taken or if other public bodies
have advised):
In light of the numerous engagements the City (and other cities) has had with Washington County where
there has been plain expectation that the City must contribute funds to Regional or County projects, I
would like the City Council to please discuss and possibly consider action on the enclosed resolution that
outlines a general position on Washington County Cost Sharing Policies and asks they revisit their
methods and practices.
Specifically,the resolution asks that the County suspend its current practices and take the necessary time
to address the elements noted such as applicability, equity, double-taxation and material benefit.

RESOLUTION
A RESOLUTION RELATING TO THE WASHINGTON COUNTY COST SHARING POLICY#8001
Whereas the City has responsibilities for delivery of services to its citizens,businesses and other entities including but not
limited to city streets,city utilities,police,fire, and parks with these services being funded in large part by the application
of a City Property Tax; and,
Whereas, Washington County also has responsibilities for delivery of services to its citizens, businesses and other entities
including but not limited to county roads,county parks,county sheriff and other county-wide and regional functions with
these services being funded in large part by the application of a County Property Tax; and,
Whereas,the taxpayers who reside in the City also reside in Washington County and pay property taxes to both entities;
and,
Whereas,Washington County maintains a Cost Share Policy 98001 between the County and other agencies for
Cooperative Highway Improvement Projects; (Policy#8001 attached as Exhibit A to this Resolution); and,
Whereas,the current Policy states that its purpose is to determine a division of costs in funding "cooperative"projects,but
the Policy does not define the term or outline applicability of when there is not a cooperative goal or an agreed upon need
between the County and impacted local unit(s)of government; and
Whereas,the County should not presume that its projects are de facto"cooperative;"and,
Whereas,when a proposed project does not hold clear agreement on cooperative goals,or is contrary to current local plans
or policies,the application of the Washington County Cost Share Policy#8001 can result in dialogue between the County
and local units of government that is challenging for all parties.
Whereas,the current Policy lacks provisions that requires the County to identify a material benefit to a local community
that is wholly distinct from a regional or County benefit which may aid in justifying a local cost share; and
Whereas,the current Policy implements a position where City taxpayers pay for a significant local cost subsidy for county-
wide or regional projects through paying both City and County taxes resulting in double taxation; and,
Whereas,if the County determines that a given project is necessary for the benefit of the County as a whole,it has the
ability to levy necessary County-wide taxes for project costs.
Whereas,the current"cost participation table"utilized in the Policy lacks clarity on how costs are divided between the
County and other units of government and when or what criteria the County Board may use to provide certain variances to
this Policy; and,
Whereas the Policy lacks clarity in its definitions, which could lead to inequalities in its application between city and non-
city entities (such as townships) and could influence County priorities depending on a local unit of government's ability to
participate; and,
THEREFORE,BE IT NOW RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL FOR THE CITY OF OAK PARK HEIGHTS,that the
City Council does request that the County Board acknowledge these ambiguities and suspends the further application of the
current Cost Share Policy until such time the County convenes and completes a clear public dialogue that addresses the
above concerns of applicability,equity,double taxation and material benefit.
Passed by the City Council for the City of Oak Park Heights this 13th day of October,2020

COST PARTICIPATION BETWEEN
WASHINGTON COUNTYAND OTHER AGENCIES
FOR COOPERATIVE HIGHWAY IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS
Purpose
To establish policies for determining appropriate division of cost participation to be used
by Washington County in funding cooperative roadway, traffic signal, and bridge
construction projects with the Minnesota Department of Transportation, municipalities,
and other agencies.
Scope
The establishment of cost policy is consistent with Minnesota Statutes, Sections 162.17,
373.01 , 469.175, 471 .59, and amendments.
General Policies
A. A greater degree of county participation is afforded municipalities having a
population of less than 5,000, because of the absence of direct state aid allocations
to these municipalities.
B. It is recognized that there may be occasional differences between these policies and
written participation policies of the Minnesota Department of Transportation. In
those cases, participation will be negotiated by the county engineer.
C. When federal aid highway funds are utilized on a county highway project, these cost
participation policies will be applied to the non-federal share of any specific item of
work. In the event federal or state grant funds are made available to a project on a
lump sum basis, the county will determine the items for which those funds will be
utilized.
Definitions
County: Washington County.
County Engineer: The county engineer of Washington County or designated
representative.
Over 5,000: A city of 5,000 population or more.
Page 29 of 44

1. Includes storm sewer and storm water treatment construction. Land acquisition for storm water
treatment shall be considered right-of-way. In the event no state aid is being used, or in the event
the state aid letter does not determine cost split percentages, drainage cost shares will be
computed by the proportion of contributing flow outside the county right-of-way to the total
contributing flow.
2. The county pays for 100% of a standard median design, such as plain concrete or sod. If a
municipality requests decorative median, such as red brick, stamped concrete or exposed
aggregate, the local unit will pay the additional cost above the cost of a standard median.
3. Costs associated with multi-use path and/or sidewalk construction include grading, pedestrian
tunnels, pedestrian ramps and bituminous trails.
4. Right-of-way costs incurred because a municipality did not acquire the width of right-of-way
required in the county Comprehensive Plan at the time of the platting or redevelopment process,
shall be paid by the municipality. Right-of-way purchased in addition to that needed for the road
project, shall be the responsibility of the requesting agency. In locations where platting or
redevelopment has not occurred, right-of-way shall be split 45% county, 55% city. Availability of
other funding sources (federal, state, etc.) may change these percentages.
5. In the event a municipality has not acquired the required width of right-of-way during the platting
process, any retaining walls used to reduce or eliminate right of way purchases, will be the
responsibility of the municipality.
6. County Construction Costs. Includes, but not limited to: decorative street lighting, decorative
signing, railroad quiet zones, fencing, trees, shrubs, grasses, decorative poles, banners, hanging
Page 31 of 44
baskets, irrigation.
Page 32 of 44
Intersection Control
The county has developed an Intersection Control Ranking System (ICRS) (Policy
#8002) which analyzes traffic volumes and accident susceptibility and severity. The
ICRS also determines whether the intersection meets traffic control signal warrants as
established in the MMUTCD.
The ICRS utilizes these factors to develop a priority list for the installation of intersection
control, including roundabout or a new traffic signal (either temporary or permanent).
The county shall determine the type of control recommended for an intersection.
Traffic Signals
The construction cost of a traffic signal includes all design and construction engineering,
and the total cost of the construction work including, but not limited to, interconnect,
lighting, and emergency vehicle pre-emption equipment.
Traffic Signal Maintenance Costs
Maintenance for all traffic signals on county roads and county state aid highways, will be
furnished by Washington County. The county will own and maintain the control
equipment, electrical wiring, including conduit and bases, replace knocked down
equipment, and re-lamp, clean, and paint the traffic control system. Traffic signals at
intersections with trunk highways will be maintained in accordance with Minnesota
Department of Transportation policies.
The participating city/township in which the traffic signal is to be located shall provide for
the installation of an adequate electrical power supply to the service equipment or pole,
including any necessary extension of power lines at no cost to the county. The
city/township shall maintain the integral street lighting, including relamping and cleaning
of luminaries. The city/township shall pay for electrical energy to operate both the
signal system and the integral street lighting. If the traffic signal is located within more
than one city/township, the costs shall be apportioned in accordance with the
construction cost participation factor.
Flashing Beacons
The participation for flashing beacons shall be the same as traffic signals.
Roundabouts
The construction cost of a roundabout is split by approach leg and shall include all
components associated with that leg of approach, including the center raised median,
curb, truck apron and roadway markings.
Maintenance of Roundabouts and the responsibilities for various components shall be
determined through the use of a maintenance agreement.
Page 33 of 44
Utilization of Tax Increment Financing
The county's participation in a project where tax increment financing is utilized by a
municipality will be as follows:
A. PROJECTS NOT IN THE CURRENT CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM (CIP)
At the time a municipality is requested to approve the preliminary plans for a project,
the municipality must identify, by resolution, whether it intends to use tax increment
financing for any portion of the project cost. If the municipality elects to use tax
increment financing from any Economic Development District for any portion of the
project cost, municipal participation could be 100% of the total engineering and
construction cost and 100% of the right-of-way cost for any portion of the project
within that municipality. The County Board of Commissioners will review and
approve county participation, if any.
B. PROJECTS IN THE CURRENT CIP
Participation will be as set forth in this policy.
Jurisdictional Transfer (Turnbacks)
Washington County identifies candidates for jurisdictional transfer in the County
Comprehensive Plan.
The county does consider that it has an obligation to insure that a turnback does not
constitute an immediate maintenance problem for the local government.
Therefore, turnback roads should be in a condition so as to require only normal
maintenance work for a five (5) year period following turnback.
The philosophies are reflected in the following turnback policy:
A. Bituminous pavements shall be in generally good condition. If they have not been
overlaid within the previous ten years or seal coated within the previous four years,
they should be overlaid or seal coated prior to turnback.
B. Widening, curve correction, vertical curve correction would normally not be
considered as part of the county's obligation in turn backs. There may be isolated
instances where turn lanes and bypass lanes would be considered. These would
have to be justified by recent major changes in traffic generation or high accident
history.
C. It shall be possible for the local government to receive funds from the county in lieu
Page 34 of 44
of any work the county would do to put the road in turnback condition. These funds
would reflect the estimated cost of the county work.
D. The county, in taking over an existing local road, would essentially take it over in its
current condition, except that:
a. If gravel, it should be well graveled.
b. If paved, all holes should be patched.
c. Isolated drainage problems should be corrected.
d. Right-of-way must be provided for future county improvements to the roadway.
E. In regard to bridges or major drainage structures, the obligation should be the same
for county and local governments. Prior to turnback, the present "owner" should
insure that the structures are in a good state of repair. This would include such
things as a sound pavement, tight bolts, railings sound and reasonably painted, and
erosion correction. It would not mean strengthening an under-designed structure for
current loads or enlarging for inadequate hydraulic capacity.
Variances
Any variance from this policy must be approved by the Washington County Board of
Commissioners.

Background/Justification (Please indicate if any previous action has been taken or if other public
bodies have advised):
The enclosed resolution outlines an Amendment action to the adopted SPENDING PLAN for the
$361,709 the City approved in July 2020. Fundamentally,the major shifts relate to allocating
public health and safety payroll costs as permissible and presumed COVID-19 payroll expenses.
This action has been clarified in official guidance by the US Treasury (issuance 9/21/20 OIG-
CA-20-028—Part 70, a&b) on how to use the "presumed payroll" instructions for public safety,
public health, and other impacted groups of employees.
This updated guidance is clear in allowing this presumption without having to over-substantiate;
rather some reasonable assumptions and calculations can be made for all department's actions
and related personnel costs to engage COVID-19.
