3 MEETING /20/91 H Common concerns
° P ".
Oak Park Heights Bayport
• councils open communications
By MIKE MARSNIK
and JOHN GILLSTROM
Possible community consolidation, the merger of their police and fire
departments, and continuing water management problems with Perro
Creek, kept the Oak Park Heights and Bayport city councils busy Wednes-
day evening.
The two councils held a joint public meeting at Oak Park Heights City
Hall. The 21/2-hour meeting drew three people, all residents of Baytown
Township, who expressed concerns about consolidation talks between the
two cities and the township.
"It went very, very well," said Oak Park Heights Mayor Barb O'Neal.
"A lot of information was exchanged; I think everyone involved felt that
it was worthwhile."
Bayport Mayor Bev Schultz agreed. "I was very happy with it," she
said. "I think any communication with the towns is all the better."
Although no formal action could legally be taken, much of Wednesday
evening's discussion revolved around police and fire protection in the two
cities. Currently, Bayport's volunteer department provides fire protection
to Oak Park Heights.
Council members, including both mayors, debated ideas such as:
• converting the Bayport Volunteer Fire Department into a full-time 'de-
partment and having the cities share costs,
• installing a fire department substation in Oak Park Heights,
consolidating the two cities' police departments, and
• having the cities share police department administrative facilities.
But, O'Neal cautioned, "this is just the initial stage of opening commu-
nications between the communities. "'
A cursory discussion of consolidating Bayport, Oak Park Heights and
Baytown Township — an idea that goes back more than a decade, accord-
ing to some officials was planned for Wednesday's meeting, O'Neal
said. The discussion opened up, however, with the appearance of Baytown
Township residents Fred Heck, Marion Heck and Gary Voss. •
"We sought their input, but we didn't go into detail because no repre-
sentatives from the Baytown Town Board were present," said Joe Carufel,
a member of the Oak Park Heights City Council.
O'Neal said she, Schultz, and a council member from each city plan to
meet with Baytown Township representatives later this spring.
"We want to look at the whole package," she said. "What's best for
Oak Park Heights? What's best for Bayport? What's best for Baytown
Township ?"
Schultz said Bayport will likely choose its representatives for that meet -'
ing at its next council meeting, April 1.
Meanwhile, plans are moving ahead to ensure adequate fire protection
for Oak Park Heights if a proposed land annexation east of Minnesota
Highway 5 is approved by the Minnesota Municipal Board. The annex-
ation concerns land currently in Baytown Township, and would include
the site of the proposed new Stillwater High School.
(The board will hold a conference call meeting next Tuesday morning
concerning the proposed annexation.)
O'Neal said she plans to meet with Stillwater Fire Chief Gordon Seim
early next month to discuss a formal proposal from Seim's department.
She then plans to obtain a formal proposal from Bayport Chief Charles
Schwartz. Both departments have already made initial presentatior.s,
O'Neal said.
Schultz said Oak Park Heights' willingness to look at watershed costs
was particularly encouraging.
There was also some discussion about the plans for the new bridge andi
the effects accompanying changes to the design of Highways 36 and 95'
might have on the two cities. A bridge meeting is scheduled for tonight at
7 p.m. at the Stillwater City Hall.

- OPH, Bayport
share concerns
By Julie Kink
Cooperation with other local governments will
be the key to survival for Oak Park Heights as the
city faces major new development on land to the west
that it expects to annex shortly.
Construction of a new school and athletic com-
plex may be the catalysts, but officials there say they
have seen change coming for a long time. In an effort
to include neighboring communities in shaping that
change, the council met with officials from Bayport
on March 20 to share common concerns.
Oak Park Heights officials expect expansion of
city sewer and water service to the school district
property to lure other developers to the area. They're
not actively seeking proposals. but council members
want to head off developers at the pass with an orderly
plan that leaves room for green space and parks.
Part of that planning involves looking ahead at
fire and police protection for the area. Oak Park
Heights Mayor Barb O'Neal is conducting talks with
fire chiefs from Bayport and Stillwater in order to
• come up with a recommendation for the council by
July 1.
