G Date: February 13, 2024 CONSENT TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Lisa Danielson, City Arborist AGENDA ITEM: Approval of Changes to City Policy Regarding Removal/Re-Planting of Boulevard Trees Cost Share Amount & Approval of the Cost Share Amount Change on 2024 City Fee Schedule BACKGROUND: In December of 2015, the City Council amended the City Policy regarding removal/re-planting of boulevard trees. The cost share fee for a property owner to pay for removal of'a boulevard tree when conditions 1-6 in the policy do not apply was set at $200.00. The same amount was also set for when a boulevard tree is dead or dying due to damage by a property owner or lawn care firm hired by the property owner. The $200.00 cost share amount is no longer an appropriate amount to help with the cost of removal and replacement of the tree(s) since cost of tree removal/replacement is upwards of $1,000+ in many cases. Changes being proposed include: 1. Amending the cost share fee for a property owner to pay 75% of the total cost of tree(s) removal and/or replacement(s) when requesting a boulevard tree be removed when it does not meet the criteria on the policy. 2. Amending the 2024 fee schedule for an owner requested boulevard tree removal to 75% of the total cost of the tree(s) removal and/or replacement(s).

G Date: February 13,2024 CONSENT TO: Mayor and City Council FROM: Finance Director— Betty Caruso AGENDA ITEM: Approval of Reimbursement Resolution relating to Wel143 BACKGROUND: As the City Council is aware, the City is planning for the drilling of a new well and associated well house. The Well # 3 Project is expected to cost $3,000,000-$3,500,000. The City has obtained approval for an EDA Grant of $1,485.000. The remaining funding is expected to be obtained from the Public Facilities Authority with the Clean Water Revolving Fund and Drinking Water Revolving Fund Ioan, the use of City Water Connection Fees and possible Water Revenue Funds/or Utility Replacement Funds. As the project develops and bids are obtained the final financing will be defined. The City is incurring expenditures as we move toward the start of construction of the project. These are expenditures that may be reimbursed to the City through the PFA Loan. The PFA loan is considered a State General Obligation and therefore adheres to bonding regulations. If the City is to use any of the PFA funds for the preliminary expenses a Reimbursement Resolution is required to satisfy the Internal Revenue Code. The Resolution for Reimbursement is included for adoption. The Finance Department recommends approval of the Resolution to cover preliminary and startup expenditures of the Well #3 Project. FINANCIAL IMPACT: • DOES ACTION REQUIRE EXPENDITURE OF FUNDS? No ACTION REQUESTED: Approve Reimbursement Resolution for Well 93 use of PFA Clean Water Revolving Loan Funds. ATTACHMENTS: Resolution 24-02-12 Page 29 of 52 RESOLUTION NO. 24-02-12 RESOLUTION ESTABLISHING PROCEDURES RELATING TO COMPLIANCE WITH REIMBURSEMENT BOND REGULATIONS UNDER THE INTERNAL REVENUE CODE BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council (the "Council") of the City of Oak Park Heights, Minnesota (the "City"), as follows: Recitals. A. The Internal Revenue Service has issued Treasury Regulations.. Section 1.150-2 (as the same may be amended or supplemented, the "Regulations"), dealing with "reimbursement bond" proceeds, being proceeds of the City's bonds used to reimburse the City for any project expenditure paid by the City prior to the time of the issuance of those bonds. B. The Regulations generally require that the City make a declaration of intent to reimburse itself for such prior expenditures out of the proceeds of subsequently issued bonds, that such declaration be made not later than 60 days after the expenditure is actually paid, and that the bonding occur and the written reimbursement allocationbe made from the proceeds of such bonds within 18 months after the later of (l) the date of payment of the expenditure or (2) the date the project is placed in service (but in no event more than 3 years after actual payment). C. The City heretofore implemented procedures for compliance with the predecessor versions of the Rcg. dations and desires to amend and supplement those procedures to ensure compliance with the Regulations. D. The City's bond counsel has advised the City that the Regulations do not apply, and hence the provisions of this Resolution are intended to have no application to payments of City project costs first made by the City out of the proceeds of bonds issued prior to the date of such payments. Official Intent Declaration. The Regulations, in the situations in which they apply, require the City to ha\ e declared an official intent (the "Declaration") to reimburse itself for previously paid project expenditures out of the proceeds of subsequently issued bonds. The Council hereby authorizes the City Clerk to make the City's Declarations or to delegate from time to time that responsibility to other appropriate City employees. Each Declaration shall comply with the requirements of the Regulations, including without limitation the following: A. Each Declaration shall be made not later than 60 days after pa}-ment of the applicable project cost and shall state that the City reasonably expects to reimburse itself for the expenditure out of the proceeds of a bond issue or similar borrowing. Each Declaration may be made substantially in the form of the Exhibit A which is attached to and made a Page 30 of 52 part of this Resolution, or in any other format which may at the time comply with the Regulations. B. Each Declaration shall (1) contain a reasonably accurate description of the "project," as defined in the Regulations (which may include the property or program to be financed, as applicable), to which the expenditure relates and (2) state the maximum principal amount of bonding expected to be issued for that project. C. Care shall be taken so that the City, or its authorised representatives under this Resolution, not make Declarations in cases where the City does not reasonably expect to issue reimbursement bonds to finance the subject project costs, and the City officials are hereby authorized to consult with bond counsel to the City concerning the requirements of the Regulations and their application in particular circumstances. D. The Council shall be advised from time to time on the desirability and timing of the issuance of reimbursement bonds relating to project expenditures for which the City has made Declarations. Reimbursement Allocations. The designated City officials shall also be responsible for making the "reimbursement allocations" described in the Regulations, being generally written allocations that evidence the Ci ty's use of the applicable bond proceeds to reimburse the original expenditures. Effect. This Resolution shall amend and supplement all prior resolutions and/or procedures adopted by the City for compliance with the Regulations (or their predecessor versions), and, henceforth, in the event of any inconsistency, the provisions of this Resolution shall apply and govern. Passed by the City Council of Oak Park Heights this 13th day of February, 2024.

Kubota recently released the LX4020 tractor that is smaller in stature while still maintaining 40 HP to perform heavy duty tasks. This tractor will fill the gap between the Kubota L6060 and the Bobcat Toolcat. Public Works vehicle replacement is planned and budgeted on an eight (8) year schedule. This purchase is an addition to the City's equipment rather than a replacement, but it was planned and budgeted for. FINANCIAL IMPACT: • DOES ACTION REQUIRE EXPENDITURE OF FUNDS: YES • IF YES, TOTAL COST: $ 55,994.10 • BUDGET LINE ITEM: PW Vehicle Replacement fund BUDGET AMOUNT: $60,000 • WITHIN BUDGET: YES ACTION REQUESTED: Authorize purchase of a Kubota LX4020 with a plow and snow blower from Neibur Tractor & Equipment. ATTACHMENTS: Tractor & equipment images, Neibur Tractor Quote, Olson Power & Equipment Quote — Neibur Tractor currently holds the state contract for tractor & equipment purchasing, meaning bidding has already been done and the City is receiving the best available price for tractor & equipment purchases. However, because the LX4020 is a new model tractor, it was not included in the initial state contract for tractor purchases. Notwithstanding, the state is opening tractor & equipment purchasing re -bidding in February 2024. The quote from Neibur reflects the best price available as if it were on the state contract, but because technically, it isn't (yet) we obtained two quotes.

This year's bid price will be $2.30 per gallon. With the contract we lock in the price for the entire year. We do not have the option of using the contract price when it is lower and then not when the pump price is lower. The commitment is an averaged expected yearlong price speculated on the ups and downs seen at the pump. We commit to 750 gallons per month usage in which we use this as a minimum averaged out over the last several years history participating in the state fuel contract. This was verbally presented to Administrator Rife and Finance Director Caruso who both recommended entering into the contract. Approval of the contract in the past has provided savings in the years since we started participation in the program. It would be reasonably expected to again save money given the average ups and downs during a normal year to again save the city money over commercial yearly pay at the pump prices. No guarantees.
