Update on Bee Keeping Ordinance. Page 3 of 40 To:Mayor and City Council, City From: Lee M. Mann, PE Administrator Johnson, City of Oak City Engineer Park Heights File: 193801828 Date:March 9, 2023 Reference: Future Well #3 and City Water System Capacities The City Council has requested an update regarding the City’s water system capacities, in particular the City’s well (water supply) capacity. The City’s Water System Master Plan (WSMP) was last updated in 2018. The water demands of the City continue to be similar in magnitude as indicated in the 2018 plan. Existing System Supply The City’s water system is currently supplied by two Jordan Aquifer wells. Well #1 (drilled in 1967) is located northeast of City Hall and has a pumping capacity of 1000 gallons per minute (GPM) or 1.44 million gallons per day (MGD). Well #2 (drilled in 1975) is located just southwest of City Hall and has a capacity of 850 GPM or 1.22 MGD. The two wells are approximately 900 feet apart. Storage Oak Park Heights water storage is supplied by two elevated water towers. One water tower is located southwest of City Hall, with a storage capacity of 250,000 gallons (0.25MG). The second water tower is th located at the northwest corner of Norell Avenue North and 58 Street North, with a storage capacity of 500,000 gallons (0.5MG). Issues The current maximum day demand for the City is approximately 1.63 MGD. According to the Met Council growth projections referenced in the WSMP (which may be conservative), the 2030 maximum day demand would be 1.79 MGD and the 2040 maximum day demand would be 1.93 MGD. It is a recommended standard that the City’s supply facilities provide a firm capacity equal to the maximum day demand*. Firm capacity is defined as the capacity of the City’s wells when the highest producing well is out of service. Typically, this could occur during emergency or routine maintenance/repairs to that well. The City’s firm capacity is 1.22 MGD (Well #2 running by itself), which is 0.41 MGD less than the current maximum day demand of 1.63 MGD. Therefore, for the City to meet firm capacity standards, another well needs to be added to the system. The addition of another 800 - 1000 gpm capacity well would result in an increase in the City’s firm capacity to 2.37 - 2.66 MGD. If the King Plant redevelopment were to occur as outlined in the King Plant Utility Feasibility Study, the City’s firm capacity would need to be 2.34 MGD, which would be covered by the addition of this well. The City’s total storage capacity is 750,000 gallons (0.75 MG). The standard capacity is between 30% of the maximum day demand and the average day demand*, which in this case is 0.5 - 0.63 MG, so the City currently has adequate storage capacity. Water storage does not contribute to firm capacity since storage capacity provides fire flow. Not including the demands from potential redevelopment of the King Plant, the City’s current storage capacity would just be sufficient for the 2040 demand. (0.58 – 0.74 MG needed). If the Page 4 of 40 King Plant redevelopment were to occur as outlined in the King Plant Utility Feasibility Study, the storage needed would be 0.70 – 0.90 MG, giving rise to the need for an additional 250,000 gallons (0.25 MG) of storage, for a total of 1.0 MG of storage. *As excerpted from the City’s WSMP: For the majority of communities, the ideal combination of supply and storage is found when the supply equals 100 percent of the maximum day demand. This is consistent with the recommendations in both Recommended Standards for Water Works by Great Lakes Upper Mississippi River Board and American Water Works Association Manual of Practice M32 - Distribution Network Analysis for Water Utilities. The Oak Park Heights water system is not currently capable of supplying the design maximum day demand of 1.6 MGD. The amount of storage required in the water system is determined from water demands, fire flow requirements, and operational needs. There are numerous ways to determine the required water storage for a water system. Recommended Standards for Water Works recommends an average day demand be provided by water storage. Large firefighting operations may require a fire flow volume of 3,500 gpm for 3 hours or 630,000 gallons. Options Construct Well #3 In order to provide the City with a firm capacity covering the maximum day demand, an additional well should rd well (a distance from well 1 and well 2) is that it be added to the system. Another benefit of having a 3 would be unlikely for all three wells be impacted by contamination at the same time. Following is a summary of the steps/process/high level costs for adding a well to the City’s water system: Identify 2 potential well sites Site will need a 55-foot radius clear zone around well head (no sewer, no storm sewer etc.) and 55- feet from edge of the well casing to the edge of the property line Need to determine if any issues with the proximity of any neighboring wells, Lake Elmo TCE (trichloroethylene) plume etc. DNR will perform a construction analysis (impacts to any groundwater dependent natural resources an impacts to other wells, both public or private) Two-year process once site is approved Apply for DNR appropriation permit amendment Target 800 - 1000 gpm+ capacity DNR will require well monitoring with the addition of Well #3 May or may not need to do a test well $130,000 Page 5 of 40 Design of well and pumphouse, construction eng, record plans $250,000 +/- Well $800,000 Pumphouse $1,500,000 +/- Generator $75 – $100,000 Budget with contingency $3,060,000 Other options? Is incorporating the prison’s well in the City’s system an option? Can research, however, if it has capacity that could help, may need booster pumps. Can we make an existing well produce more? This may be challenging because of the proximity of the two wells, however, this could be reviewed. llon (0.25 MG) Storage Tank (future development driven) Construct 250,000-ga A 250,000-gallon water storage tank could cost $2 MM – 2.5 MM+ depending on site, water main extension and land costs.

The full Policy is attached – for what it is worth here is some STAFF interpretation. What was the History? As it is important to recall why the policy exists… if I recall the substantive purpose of this Policy stemmed fromtwo facets both from more than a decade ago: The former Mayor – flying to Wash. D.C.; to comment on the then St. Croix River Crossing projectthat was under review for suspending or amending the Sec 7a review process to the Wild and Scenic Rivers act.At that time…there was a concern by the balance of the City Council that his presence or comments may imply or directly suggest a given position by the City Council as a whole. In that same time period there was a concern by the balance of the City Council that there was an expression of non-approved City Council positions to MNDOT staffby a City Councilmember at various meetings. So, based on this…the attached Policy was crafted and implemented with these above two issues being addressed in Section 2. The Policy as written also states a number of permissions and situations as to when or how one may use City Letterhead, logos, etc. See Parts 1a through 1e.Not all parts must be applicable for each instance.Section 1 makes a clear prohibition of the use of the City’s name, letterhead, logo and seal except in specific circumstances being as approved by the City Council and/or being ceremonial or congratulatory perspectives. And, the specific LETTERHEAD as outlined in Policy 1.d can defined to be as shown to this memo; basically, it is the form that Staff has used for decades. For a lack of something more specific, I would define it as the Official Letterhead – and the logo and name are generally more or less obvious. So, was there a specific violation of this Policy? Read strictly, YES, it really did not meet any of the tests or parameters of the Policy. Page 7 of 40 But….Was this the Council’s Intention? Is this reading and capacity what the Council intended?The goal, as I recall was to ensure personal positions of its elected officials are made clearly distinct from positions of the City Council as a whole; And that when there is an official position requested or expected, that such faithfully reflects the City Council’s desires. I believe this was accomplishedin the POLICY.. However, I do not recall the intention of the Policy to unilaterally suggest that City policy-makers could not offer written opinions that carry their official title or from issuing its positions of its office. Perhaps this was an unintended consequence and error. And, to be honest, I am not sure a policy can be created that does outlines such restriction even if it was desired. EveryEvery--day, elected officials day, elected officials – including city council members – use business cards with the logo /title; use name tags, etc. And when they are out in public espouse their own opinions of their office – or on camera, or in an EMAIL signature line, letter toeditor, etc. Could we envision a governmental structure where there would be an attempt to prohibit its elected officials from issuing their own opinions from the auspices of their elected officeor are prohibited from being easily identified with that office to its voters? This was not the intention of the policythat I recall. Like most (if not all) elected officials to a public office, many give statements of policy on a regular basis – these can be oral or in writingand be pro/con of many issues. Those opinions carry the presumed voting capacity and positions of such OFFICE – not the unelected individual. These positionscan be oral – such as stated during a City Council meeting, or in the form of a letter to a party that outlines a position. As an example, a City Councilmember may send a letter to a developer commenting on a prospective hearing or outlining their position as a City Councilmember – as it is not the official City Council position. In these examples, yes the person is speakingfrom the OFFICE of that duly elected position – it is a policy stance.As another example of this, we all have received letters from State and Federal Representatives that outline a position…each of these on their Official Letterhead for their Office. Local elected officials have the same role and one could argue… duty. Back to the Spirit of the Policy: Thinking about Section 2and the \[possible\] spirit of the Policy, Council Member Runk used a format of City Logo / Name similar to those of other elected officials – and not the explicit Official Letterhead of the City – rather being from the “Office of Councilmember Mike Runk”. And, most importantly - made it abundantly clear in his written expression that the positions taken were his and not that of the City. Lastly, Councilmember Runk did supply a copy to the Office of the City Admin – which was supplied in weekly notes on 11/14/22. Possibilities: I am not sureany public body may (or should) seek tointentionallysubdue the use of an official title to express an opinion that carries the weight of a specific office for such entity. If that were the case, no elected official could send an email or letter that carries their titleand whom they represent. That said, the City’s policy that requires the clear expression of an individual’s position is valid and should not be changed. But… the Council might consider some edits to the Policy that do not put its elected officials in violation of a Policy (which may be practically unenforceable) for issuing their own opinions from their Elective Officeand so that aids the public in knowing who(m) is speaking. Attached is some suggested edits to the Policy for some discussion / consideration at some point.

The City’s current rules 602.08 prohibit that as outlined in City Ordinance. I dorecall that concerns for this 10 years ago+/- was that there was a dispute between a neighbor who cited that their child was allergic to bees and sought some prohibition prior to any establishment of such un the City – perhaps beyond the one known the neighborhood. Since that time, it appears that – like the keepingof chickens – perhaps due to COVID – there is some desire for a “cottage” industry of these things..Many cities now allow chickens – including OPH that did not 10 years ago. Perhaps Apiaries are the same? Mr. Houde has supplied a letter and several examples of communities in the metro area that allow some limitedbee keeping. In comparing these – including Stillwater’s – they substantivelyfollow the MODEL ORDINACE as offered from the Minnesota Hobby Bee Keepers AssociationMN Hobby Beekeepers (mnbeekeepers.com) – this website offers significant MN based data on the issue. https://mnbeekeepers.com/wp-content/uploads/MHBA-Model-Ordinance-2018.pdf While anecdotally, I have not personally heard of issues with this type of land –use as being wholly incompatible with a residential nature in a low density setting. The City can require permittingand limitations similar to chickensand is what other communities utilize. Perhaps the City considers holding a publichearing on the concept ofit may be the next step?
