Agenda Item Title: Fat Tire -Bike Rally - February 19, 2023
Agenda Placement New Business
Originating Department/Requestor Eric Johnson, City Administrator
Requester’s Signature
Action Requested Authorize the Fat Tire Bike Rally with Conditions
Background/Justification (Please indicate if any previous action has been taken or if other public
bodies have advised):
The City has been requested to consider the use of City Trails / MTN Bike Areas for the
purposes of a FAT TIRE BIKE RALLY to be held the weekend of Feb 19th. Please see the
attached communication. They are hoping for approximately 200 participants. This is to be
sponsored event – with the promoter being the Chilkoot Velo Cycling Club with a beneficiary
being SASCA.
THE CONCEPT IS THAT THIS WOULD BE A SELF-TIMED EVENT WHERE RIDERS
WOULD SHOW-UP OVER THE WEEKEND INDIVDUALLY AND RIDE ESTABLISHED
LOOPS. IPHONE OR SIMIALR TRACKING WOULD LOG TIMES. WE ARE ADVISED
THAT THERE WOULD NOT BE ANY STAGED RACES OR OTHER GATHERINGS.
Considering the individual nature of this event it is exactly not-clear on how sponsor / promoter
differs from – simply saying to riders – “…go use the established public trails”; so…. we will
have to evaluate that from a perspective of liability and establishing some ground rules or
expectations.
Staff does recommend this authorization of the event with the final approval being held by
the City Staff with input by the Park Commission and the execution of a Final Agreement
consistent with past practices (Draft Enclosed) but waiving fees and financial securities if
there are no planned on-site events in the City – such as tents or formal staging.

Agenda Item Title: Pay Equity Compliance - 2023
Agenda Placement New Business
Originating Department/Requestor Eric Johnson, City Administrator
Requester’s Signature
Action Requested Approve Submission of 2023 Pay Equity Compliance Report
Background/Justification (Please indicate if any previous action has been taken or if other public
bodies have advised):
Every three years the City of Oak Park Heights must submit to the MN Dept of Labor a Pay Equity
Compliance Report. This mandated report attempts to compare job classifications, assigned
responsibilities and pay ranges between male and female staff in an effort to ensure that cities are paying
equalized amounts for various positions across genders.
Attached is the Pay Equity Compliance Report for 2023– stated in 2022 values. The requirements set by
the State of Minnesota Department of Labor is that the City must have compliance in all four areas:
I.Appropriate Job Classifications
II.Meet Underpayment Ratio OR T-Test Results Significance
III.Salary Range Test results.
IV.Exceptional Service Pay Test.
At this time and based on the initial raw data of classifications, salary ranges,
. the City is found to be in compliance with the required standards.
Recommendation / Action requested:
Approve Pay Equity Compliance Report for 2023 and authorize staff to submit the report to the
Minnesota Department of Labor/MMB.
