City Council Meeting: October 26, 2023 Prepared By: Dwight Klingbeil Topic: Zoning Ordinance Amendment to Section 1030.020 (City File No. 23-021) Action Required: Approval 60-Day Review Deadline: N/A 1. Request On August 24, 2023, the City Council directed staff to prepare a Zoning Ordinance Amendment to Section 1030.020 of the Zoning Ordinance regarding eave and overhang flexibility for certain accessory structures. 2. Planning Commission Review The Planning Commission held a public hearing on this item at their October 5, 2023, meeting. One resident spoke at the public hearing. The Commission voted 3-0 to recommend approval of an alternate Ordinance Amendment that incorporates a standard 12” minimum eave and overhang regardless of the structure’s sidewall height. Staff has prepared an alternate ordinance and resolution for approval incorporating the recommendation from the Planning Commission. 3. Context In August, Jay Brown met with Council and staff regarding a request to build a new accessory building on his property at 22355 Oakdale Drive. This property already has three detached accessory structures with 12-inch overhangs where a minimum of 24- inches would normally be required. These structures predate the adoption of Section 1030.020, Subd. 5(B) and are considered legal nonconforming structures. Part of Mr. Brown’s request was to construct the new accessory structure with eaves and overhangs that would match the legal nonconforming structures on his property. Council felt this request was appropriate as it would create a cohesive architectural style on the property. Council directed staff to propose an amendment to this section of the Zoning Ordinance to allow flexibility on the eave and overhang requirements to match legal-nonconforming structures on the same property. 4. Analysis Page 1 of 4 Page 2 of 4 Currently, Section 1030.020, Subd. 5(B) requires all accessory structures to have a minimum eave length of 12 inches, and a minimum overhang length of 12 inches for sidewalls of less than 10 feet, 18 inches for sidewalls that are between 10 feet and 12 feet, and 24 inches for sidewalls that are more than 12 feet. Staff believes the adoption of this requirement was to ensure a residential aesthetic on all accessory buildings. Several accessory structures throughout the city predate the adoption of Section 1030.020, Subd. 5(B) and do not meet these standards, making them legal nonconforming structures. Under the current requirements, property owners are not allowed to construct a new accessory structure that matches an existing legal nonconforming structure on their property. Amending this section of the code would give applicants the flexibility to create a cohesive and consistent architectural style on their property. Staff proposes the following verbiage to satisfy direction from the Council: Subd. 5. Building Height. A.Sidewall height shall be measured from the base of the structure to the bottom of the eave on the exterior sidewalls.B.The following sidewall heights, eaves, and overhang standards shallexist:Sidewall Height Eaves (minimum) Overhang (minimum) 10’ or less 12” 12” 10’ – 12’ 12” 18” 12’ –13’6” to provide for a 12’ door 12” 24” 1.The Zoning Administrator may provide flexibility from Section1030.020 Subd.5(B) in situations where the new accessorystructure matches an existing legal nonconforming accessorystructure located on the same property. Page 3 of 4 This amendment is only meant to apply for legal nonconforming structures that predate the adoption of Section 1030.020, Subd. 5. Flexibility would not be granted for applications to match illegal nonconforming structures. If amended, staff may be able to determine whether the existing building is a legal nonconforming structure through permit records and historical arial images. If this cannot be proven using these methods, the burden of proof to show the structure is legally nonconforming is on the applicant. Alternatively, staff feels it may also make logistical and practical sense to remove the current table in favor of a standard 12-inch minimum requirement for all eaves and overhangs on accessory structures, regardless of their sidewall height. This is a reaction to frequent confusion from the applicants as to what is considered an eave and what is considered an overhang. This confusion often leads to additional back and forth, as well as additional conditions of approval. This option would cause less confusion, allow everyone to construct new accessory structures under the same standard, and would put less burden on applicants to prove a structure is a legal nonconformity and document the measurements of the existing eaves and overhangs when this information is not on record with the City. By amending this text to resemble the eave and overhang requirements of residential buildings, this option would continue to ensure that accessory buildings will match the residential character throughout the City. The alternative text would be as follows: Subd. 5. Building Height. A. Sidewall height shall be measured from the base of the structure to the bottom of the eave on the exterior sidewalls. B.All accessory structures shall be constructed with eaves and overhangs that are a minimum of 12 inches in length. The following sidewall heights, eaves, and overhang standards shall exist: Sidewall Height Eaves (minimum) Overhang (minimum) 10’ or less 12” 12” 10’ – 12’ 12” 18” 12’ –13’6” to provide for a 12’ door 12” 24” Page 4 of 4 5. Recommendation If the Council chooses to adopt the ordinance amendment that reflects their initial request, then they should move to adopt the following: a.Ordinance 2023-508 (Option A) approving an Amendment to Section 1030.020 b.Resolution 2023-92 (Option A) approving findings of fact for the Ordinance Amendment. c.Summary Ordinance 2023-509 i.

City Council Meeting: October 26, 2023 Prepared By: Natalie Davis McKeown Topic: Minor Subdivision and Zoning Ordinance Edits (City File No. 23-022) Action Required: Approval 60-Day Review Deadline: N/A 1. Request City staff proposes several amendments to update the Subdivision and Zoning Ordinance. The goal of the update is to address staff-identified typos and inconsistencies found throughout these ordinances. Additionally, the amendments include other minor revisions that are not expected to be controversial to align requirements with City processes and goals, such as increasing the public hearing notice radius from 350 feet to 500 feet. 2. Planning Commission Review This item was reviewed at a Public Hearing by the Planning Commission on October 6, 2023. No one spoke at the public hearing. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the updates as drafted unanimously (3-0; Commissioners Horn and Van Den Einde absent). 3. Background A working list of Subdivision and Zoning Ordinance Edits has been forwarded to Council as a staff priority for the last 3 years. Below was the most recent list of items forwarded to Council of things to consider as part of this update: a.“Building Line” definition - needs to be consistent with other definitions. b.Wetland and Topo Waiver process – clarify. c.Clarify front yard setback is measured from ROW easement or ROW. d.Revise “Daycare Facility” definition. e.Revise “Structure” definition - fences allowed up to 7 feet. f.Correct 10:00 p.m. typo in 1040.030, Subd. 4(E). g.Correct spacing/formatting throughout. h.Update definition of “Major Roadways”. i.Check and correct font in 1070.040, Subd. 2(B) if needed. j.Capitalize “Waiver” in Section 82.04, Subd. 5(B). k.Delete 1040.110, Subd. 2(S) (duplicate of U). l.Correct “Senior” typo in 1040.130, Subd. 4(K). m.Reword 1060.050, Subd. 1(C)1 for clarity. n.Reword 1060.050, Subd. 1(C)1.f.i to exclude windows and doors. Page 2 of 12 o.Section 1060.080 - Do decorative fence elements on top need to comply with 7-foot limit? p.Update all 2030 Comp Plan references to 2040 Comp Plan. q.Section 1070.050, Subd. 8(B) – amend to allow Council to approve a second extension. r.Section 1040.100, Subd. 2(F) should be commercial daycare not daycare facilities (C-1 and C-2 districts). s.Consider at-grade deck/patio setback encroachment. t.Update all references of “Places of Worship/Assembly” found throughout the Code to “Places of Worship”. u.Remove extension requests from Planning Commission purview. v.Replace “interim use permit” reference regarding ADU approvals with the “applicable review process” in 1030.020, Subd. 5(C)(3). w.Clarify that required plantings in buffer yards as outlined in Section 1060.070, Subd. 2(J) are in addition to other landscaping requirements. x.Increase the public hearing notice radius from 350 feet to 500 feet in all relevant application process sections including Section 930.010, Subd. 1 and 3; Section 970.040, Subd. 1(B); Section 1030.100, Subd. 6(A); Section 1070.010, Subd. 1(C); Section 1070.020, Subd. 2(D); and Section 1070.040, Subd. 3(C)(1). y.Revise “Upland” definition to clarify upland is not floodplain or land below the 100-year ordinary high-water level. z.Re-word Section 925.010 to provide City Council with more discretion to determine when a subdivision may or may not be deemed premature. aa. Review Section 940.050, Subd. 1(D)(4) pertaining to lot dimension deviations in Open Space and Preservation Plats for consistency with Section 940.030, Subd. 4. bb. Revise definition of “Multiple Family Dwelling” so that it cannot be interpreted to include townhomes and be consistent with the adopted Rental Dwelling Ordinance. cc.Correct spacing at Section 1030.090. dd. Correct formatting error at Section 1040.125, Subd 5. (B). ee. Define “Auto Service Stations” as the term is used in Section 1060.060, Subd. 8. ff. Define “Eaves” and “Overhangs” as the terms are relied on in Section 1030.020, Subd. 5. gg. Update Section 945.020, Subd. 19(C) to be consistent with Engineering Standards. This list was not meant to be exhaustive as staff believed it would be likely to find additional areas where minor edits would make sense while going through this process. However, for this update staff was only interested in including changes that will correct typos or formatting errors, address inconsistency throughout the Code, provide clarity of Page 3 of 12 City processes or interpretations, or address non-controversial items. Anything believed to warrant a separate or larger discussion was not included in this update. The City Council authorized staff to proceed with preparing the minor amendments at the September 14th City Council meeting. 3. Analysis The enclosed draft Ordinance is 32 pages with 77 sections of amended code. Most revisions from the proposed list were incorporated. There were a few items on the list that ended up not being incorporated into the proposed amendments including formatting issues (i.e., spacing and font) that the City Attorney confirmed did not require a formal ordinance amendment to address as well as areas that Staff realized warranted a larger discussion (e.g., definition of Auto Service Station as a term of art in the parking performance standards). Staff will use the proposed list as a framework for the analysis to summarize the proposed amendments. a.“Building Line” definition - needs to be consistent with other definitions. The previous definition seemed to confuse the term building line with setback line. Staff believes building line can differ from setback line when buildings were developed prior to the prevailing setback requirements. Staff wanted the update to clarify that the term building line is used to address an existing condition of the site whereas the setback line addresses the required setback based on the prevailing ordinance. Therefore, the definitions for “Building Line” and “Setback” were amended to provide this clarity. This is handled in Section 10 of the enclosed draft. b.Wetland and Topo Waiver process – clarify. The City has an unofficial process for applicants to request a waiver from wetland delineation and topographic survey requirements for preliminary plats under specific situations. Specifically, these are typically granted when the request is a small lot line adjustment or development rights reassignment that can’t be handled under a more simplified process. These waivers are only granted to a lot if no improvements or further subdivision is proposed. While this has been a practice for several years that went through City Council to approval, this process was not found in the City Code. The proposed amendments codify the process as well as provide the Zoning Administrator and City Engineering the authority to review and grant approval of such requests to streamline the application process for applicants. Should staff deny a waiver, the applicant will be able to appeal the decision to City Council. This is handled in Section 4 of the draft Ordinance. c.Clarify front yard setback is measured from ROW easement or ROW. Page 4 of 12 Staff believes this is now addressed with the changes made previously in 2022 by adding the term of art “Lot Frontage” as well as the new changes made to the “Setback” definition as a part of correcting the “Building Line” inconsistencies in Section 10. d.Revise “Daycare Facility” definition. Staff has run into inconsistencies throughout the Code where commercial daycare facilities are called out separately in some districts, but not in others where it would make sense to have commercial daycare facilities. This has led to the interpretation that the City allows home daycares in nearly all districts, including commercial districts, but not necessarily commercial daycares within commercial districts. The proposed definition change further categorizes daycare facilities into home daycare facilities and commercial daycare facilities for clarity. This is handled in Section 10 of the draft Ordinance. e.Revise “Structure” definition - fences allowed up to 7 feet. Previously, the structure definition exempted fences of up to 6 feet from being categorized as a structure. However, building permits for a fence are not required until a fence exceeds 7’ in height. This suggests a fence is not considered a structure until it exceeds 7’ tall. The definition of structure was revised for consistency. This is addressed in Section 10 of the draft Ordinance. f.Correct 10:00 p.m. typo in 1040.030, Subd. 4(E). Due to previous changes made in code, the typo was actually found in Section 1040.030, Subd. 5(C). A period needed to be added after the “m” in p.m. This is handled in Section 22 of the proposed draft Ordinance. g.Correct spacing/formatting throughout. The City Attorney confirmed most spacing and formatting errors can be addressed as a part of the annual update without formal adoption of these changes. Staff made note of where spacing and font errors can be found in the code, and these will be addressed with the annual codification update in 2024 where the City Code document is updated with all ordinance changes from the previous year. h.Update definition of “Major Roadways”. The term “Major Roadways” is used in each district chapter to provide a greater front setback from County Roads. Previously, several roadway classifications were provided as examples of major roadways with reference made to the Page 5 of 12 Roadway Functional Classification map in the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. This led to confusion, and ultimately part of County Road 10 did not fall under any of these classifications. Staff believes the goal of the major roadway setback was to provide a greater setback from state highways (Highway 55 in the southwest corner of the City) and the county roads found throughout the City. Therefore, the proposed amendment simplifies the explanation of major roadways throughout the City Code to specifically apply to state highways and county roads without the need to reference a map. This is handled in each district’s area requirements where relevant (the Downtown Mixed-Use district does not have a minimum setback as it utilizes a build-to line instead to create a traditional downtown environment). The update can be found in the following sections: Section 17 Section 39 Section 23 Section 42 Section 25 Section 45 Section 27 Section 49 Section 29 Section 51 Section 31 Section 54 Section 33 Section 60 Section 35 Section 63 i.Check and correct font in 1070.040, Subd. 2(B) if needed. The City Attorney confirmed this change can be addressed with the annual codification update in 2024 without formal adoption of the revision. j.Capitalize “Waiver” in Section 82.04, Subd. 5(B). Staff previously received direction from Council to formalize the Special Event Permit and Sign processes. There are a few portions of this area of Code that need to be revised, and it was determined the change in capitalization will be included as a part of a separate update anticipated in 2024. k.Delete 1040.110, Subd. 2(S) (duplicate of U). Retail goods and service uses of a similar nation was listed twice under the permitted uses for the C-2 (Community Commercial) District. The duplicate entry is removed, and subsequent lettering is updated in Section 46 of the draft ordinance. l.Correct “Senior” typo in 1040.130, Subd. 4(K). Page 6 of 12 There was a previous version of City Code that used the term “Senor Housing” which was meant to be “Senior Housing”. It appears a previous update corrected this error as staff no longer can find the use of “Senor” in the City Code. m.Reword 1060.050, Subd. 1(C)1 for clarity. The wording in this section of the Zoning Ordinance suggested that the Rural Commercial (CR) district was exempt from the exterior building finishes requirement. This is not the case; it was just that there is some additional flexibility provided. This flexibility is discussed in Section 1060.050, Subd. 1(C)(1)(f). Staff recommends removing the verbiage that suggests the CR is exempt from building material requirements for non-residential districts and rely on the flexibility specified subsequently in the same Section. This is handled in Section 66 of the draft Ordinance. n.Reword 1060.050, Subd. 1(C)1.f.i to exclude windows and doors. The wording was updated to clarify that windows and doors are excluded from the calculations to determine compliance with a percentage limit applied to curtain wall panels. This is also handled in Section 66 of the draft Ordinance. o.Section 1060.080 - Do decorative fence elements on top need to comply with 7 foot limit? In consultation with Public Works and Construction Services, staff believes that certain decorative elements such as a space cap on structural posts should not count towards the height calculation of a fence. However, toppers that are placed across the entirety of a fence should count towards the height of a fence as it can impact the structural integrity of a fence. Section 65 of the draft Ordinance provides a height exemption for decorative elements and clarifies that toppers are not exempt from height calculations. Additionally, images are provided to illustrate the difference between the exempt decorative element and provide an example of a non-exempt fence topper. Section 68 also makes a minor adjustment to subsequent punctuation so that the Section is cohesive. p.Update all 2030 Comp Plan references to 2040 Comp Plan. All references to the 2030 Comprehensive Plan were updated to 2040. This is addressed in the following sections of the draft Ordinance: Section 14 Section 32 Section 18 Section 34 Section 19 Section 43 Section 24 Section 55 Page 7 of 12 Section 26 Section 57 Section 28 Section 69 Section 30 q.Section 1070.050, Subd. 8(B) – amend to allow Council to approve a second extension. Previously approved land use applications typically expire after 1 year with the Zoning Administrator able to provide a 1-year extension. Should a second or longer extension be necessary, there is typically an extension request that goes to the Planning Commission and City Council (except variances only go to the “Board” – AKA the City Council). Requests are required at least 30 days prior to the expiration. There are some exceptions to this process found in Code. For example, administrative permits had no expiration date called out, and variance extension requests did not include the Planning Commission. Staff proposes verbiage to add an expiration clause for administrative permits. The verbiage also allows the Zoning Administrator to grant an extension up to two times of no more than two years overall. This is similar to the extension process for preliminary plats. The proposed verbiage is provided in Section 76 of the draft Ordinance. Considering the 30-day timeline and the fact that some application types only required the extension request to be considered by the Zoning Administrator or Council, staff believes it makes sense to streamline the process to send an extension requests to Council without Planning Commission consideration. This will benefit applicants of approved projects with a more uniform process, minimize staff time, as well as reduce the workload required of the Planning Commission. Staff also found reference to a renewal fee for extension requests; however, we do not have a renewal fee in our adopted fee schedule. Staff believes it makes sense to utilize the escrow account on file for staff time to process an extension request. The proposed revisions to extensions requests are handled in the following sections of the draft Ordinance: -Section 72 -Section 74 -Section 75 r.Section 1040.100, Subd. 2(F) should be commercial day care not day care facilities (C-1 and C-2 districts). All day care facilities references are clarified throughout the Zoning Ordinance to clarify where home or commercial facilities are allowed. Additionally, in districts where daycares are a permitted use, day care as an accessory use is removed Page 8 of 12 as it is redundant. Finally, day care as an accessory use to a Place of Worship/Assembly in the Urban Reserve (UR) district is proposed to be removed since Places or Worship/Assembly are not permitted in the UR and there are no legal nonconforming Places of Worship/Assembly currently located in the UR. These changes are found in the following sections of the draft Ordinance: Section 15 Section 41 Section 16 Section 43 Section 20 Section 44 Section 24 Section 46 Section 26 Section 47 Section 28 Section 50 Section 30 Section 52 Section 32 Section 56 Section 34 Section 57 Section 36 Section 58 Section 37 Section 61 Section 40 Section 62 s.Consider at-grade deck/patio setback encroachment. At-grade decks and patios are already allowed to encroach up to 6’ into the required wetland setback. Staff believes it makes sense to have this flexibility for all setbacks as long as it does not interfere with a drainage and utility easement. Section 11 proposes language within the Accessory Structures Section of the Zoning Ordinance to provide this flexibility. Additionally, language in the Wetland Overlay was also added for consistent treatment of drainage and utility easements (this is found in Section 64). t.Update all references of “Places of Worship/Assembly” found throughout the Code to “Places of Worship”. A code update in 2021 renamed the term of art “Places of Worship/Assembly” to “Place of Worship” as the definition provided in the Zoning Ordinance is specific to Places of Worship and specifically excludes other types of assembly uses. While most references were caught as part of the 2021 update, the draft Ordinance will correct the remaining references that were missed. This is handled in the following sections of the draft Ordinance: Section 21 Section 59 Page 9 of 12 Section 38 Section 61 Section 48 Section 65 u.Remove extension requests from Planning Commission purview. This was handled as discussed in item “q.” above. v.Replace “interim use permit” reference regarding ADU approvals with the “applicable review process” in 1030.020, Subd. 5(C)(3). This is handled in Section 12 of the draft Ordinance. w.Clarify that required plantings in buffer yards as outlined in Section 1060.070, Subd. 2(J) are in addition to other landscaping requirements. This is handled in Section 67 of the draft Ordinance. x.Increase the public hearing notice radius from 350 feet to 500 feet in all relevant application process sections including Section 930.010, Subd. 1 and 3; Section 970.040, Subd. 1(B); Section 1030.100, Subd. 6(A); Section 1070.010, Subd. 1(C); Section 1070.020, Subd. 2(D); and Section 1070.040, Subd. 3(C)(1). The City Council identified increasing the public hearing notice radius as a priority for 2023. The proposed ordinance change updates the radius to 500 feet for all application types that require a public hearing. This is handled in the following sections of the drafts Ordinance. y.Revise “Upland” definition to clarify upland is not floodplain or land below the 100-year ordinary high-water level. Section 1 of the draft Ordinance proposes language that clarifies the term uplands does not refer to land considered floodplain or is below the 100-year ordinary high-water level. This is particularly important for processing Open Space and Preservation plats. z.Re-word Section 925.010 to provide City Council with more discretion to determine when a subdivision may or may not be deemed premature. Section 3 Section 70 Section 9 Section 71 Section 13 Section 73 Page 10 of 12 Section 2 of the draft Ordinance proposes language that will provide City Council with more discretion to determine when a subdivision may or may not be deemed premature. This discretion already is utilized when granting variances to developments within the Metropolitan Urban Service Area prior to the full availability of municipal services. In these instances, it has made sense to not make a determination of premature development as the applicants could operate with septic and/or a well as an interim solution. aa. Review Section 940.050, Subd. 1(D)(4) pertaining to lot dimension deviations in Open Space and Preservation Plats for consistency with Section 940.030, Subd. 4. In Section 5 and Section 6 of the draft Ordinance, the verbiage is revised for consistency between the two areas of the Subdivision Ordinance that discusses the trigger for Planned Unit Developments within an Open Space & Preservation plat. bb. Revise definition of “Multiple Family Dwelling” so that it cannot be interpreted to include townhomes and be consistent with the adopted Rental Dwelling Ordinance. In Section 10 of the draft Ordinance, definitions of Multiple Family Dwelling, Apartment Dwelling, and Townhome Dwelling are updated for uniformity with the newly adopted Rental Dwelling Ordinance. cc.Correct spacing at Section 1030.090. The space in this section appears to have been corrected in a previous update. dd. Correct formatting error at Section 1040.125, Subd 5. (B). An extra “B.” is located within this area of the Zoning Ordinance. This is corrected in Section 53 of the draft Ordinance. ee. Define “Auto Service Stations” as the term is used in Section 1060.060, Subd. 8. It was determined that changing the use of or defining Auto Service Stations could have ripple effects within the parking performance standards. Staff believes this entire Section of the Zoning Ordinance should be re-evaluated. Therefore, changes, including defining or rethinking the term “Auto Service Station”, are Page 11 of 12 recommended to happen as a separate update for parking performance standards. ff. Define “Eaves” and “Overhangs” as the terms are relied on in Section 1030.020, Subd. 5. This was handled separately as part of the Accessory Structure Zoning Ordinance Amendment relating to eaves and overhangs also being considered at this meeting. gg. Update Section 945.020, Subd. 19(C) to be consistent with Engineering Standards. This Section of the Subdivision Ordinance implies there is no established maximum length to streets that end in a cul-de-sac. However, this is inconsistent with the City’s Engineering Design Standards. Since the Engineering Design Standards are subject to updates, the proposed verbiage confirms to refer to the prevailing design standards for the cul-de-sac maximum. This is addressed in Section 6 of the draft Ordinance. Additionally, there are a few more revisions that were added to the minor updates list as staff went through the process. hh. Removal of the term “Greenway Corridor Land” in Section 915.020 of the Subdivision Ordinance. This was handled in Section 1 of the draft Ordinance. The term was removed as it is no longer used anywhere within the Subdivision Ordinance or elsewhere in Code. ii.Private drives in urban districts. Currently, the City Code does not allow for private drives within the urban residential districts. However, those within the Urban Reserve and developments with townhomes still rely on private drives. Previously, flexibility has been granted to allow private drives in this area of town. Section 8 of the draft Ordinance proposes clearly allowing private drives within the MUSA when deemed appropriate by City Council and provides clear design standards. jj. Planned Unit Development (PUD) Neighborhood Meetings In addition to public hearings, the PUD update earlier this year added a neighborhood meeting requirement and referenced the same notice radius used for public hearings. This update includes increasing the neighborhood meeting radius to 500 feet. Additionally, clarification is added to the neighborhood Page 12 of 12 meeting explaining that the applicant must provide a summary of the meeting detailing the attendees and feedback received with the application submittal. This will be particularly important when staff is unable to attend a neighborhood meeting. 4.

Engineers introduction page 6 Anderson is teaming with Midwest Wetlands Improvements (MWI) to assist with water resources and their history with park projects in the City of Corcoran. MWI’s Principal was directly involved with the original City Park remaster (Athletic) and Ravinia (Wildflower) parks from its inception while employed with his previous employer. This background and knowledge of these parks will provide the City of Corcoran tremendous value through the park planning process with the understanding of what previous decisions were made and a comprehensive understanding of the sites to accelerate programming and analyzing the sites saving time and budget. In addition, Anderson’s Landscape Architect-in-Training previously worked with MWI’s Principal on these projects while both employed with their same previous employer providing seamlessness collaboration within the project team. MIDWEST WETLANDS IMPROVEMENTS VICTORIA, MINNESOTA Midwest Wetland Improvements, a Small Business Enterprise (SBE) and Emerging Small Business Enterprise (ESBE) through the Central Certification (CERT) Program, was created with the mission of restoring and protecting the water resources and habitats that are critical to life. The firm is a fusion of landscape architecture and ecology that provides a unique approach to problem solving. Our expertise ranges from pure ecological restoration of degraded systems to integrating stormwater management and green infrastructure into the human built environment. Through these projects, we also demonstrate our ability to address multiple goals by creatively solving runoff, infiltration or flooding problems while also repurposing what is typically lost space for public use and interaction with the site. Ultimately, this problem-solving approach supports our ability to identify opportunities to improve and protect surface and groundwater quality, manage the volume and flow of stormwater runoff, as well as incorporate opportunities for the public to engage with and become more knowledgeable about their local water resources. Lucius Jonett is the founder of Midwest Wetland Improvements and has had experience as a municipal landscape architect for the City of Lake Elmo, has previous experience with the City of Corcoran on the Ravinia and Athletic (now called City Park) parks, has developed a countywide park master plan for Kandiyohi County, MN, and continues to design new park projects integrating water resources into them. In addition to the design of public places, Lucius continues to practice as a stream ecologist following natural channel design principles and using the Stream Quantification Tool since 2019 to quantify project impacts and develop mitigation credits. Most of the stream projects that Lucius works on are in public parks and City outlots lined with residential properties, so he has become adept at working with large groups of public stakeholders. Midwest Wetland Improvement’s experience tailors to the expectations of local government agencies and has performed professional services for neighboring jurisdictions including the City of Maple Grove, City of Plymouth and Three Rivers Park District. introduction page 7 FIRM KEY ANDERSON MIDWEST WETLAND IMPROVEMENTS CITY OF CORCORAN SR.

Provided guidance on what amenities to include within the park and oversaw the grading plan being developed. Negotiated with the developer to complete the rough grading for that addition of new homes. Volunteered for the community build day to assemble the playground equipment. Worked with the City on a second park master planning project for the community athletic park including up to eight sports fields, a sports dome, equipment storage areas, trail connections, a multi-use building including bathroom facilities, concessions, warming house and storage, parking, stormwater conveyance, landscapes, sight lines, and natural areas. Worked with staff and the City park commission to iterate through layouts to develop a final concept, phasing plan and cost estimates. MUNICIPAL LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT LAKE ELMO, MN Served as the City’s Landscape Architect to develop and recommend landscape policies and procedures, review land use applications, landscape plans, irrigation plans, and vegetative maintenance plans for private developments. Also assisted in the planning, layout and design of City parks and trails. Conducted on-site inspections to ensure compliance with approved landscape and other applicable plans and prepare punch lists prior to acceptance of landscaping. Utilized ArcGIS Online to create a tree inspection dataset that allowed us to record and verify the location of all new planted trees in the City, noting if trees were rejected for various reasons and to revisit and verify after the replacements were correctly planted. This database of trees became a tool to analyze the quantities and distribution of tree species throughout the City to provide guidance on diversity of the tree canopy and watching out for unbalance for future pest issues. As the City’s Landscape Architect, participated in internal and external meetings involving landscape questions and issues with City staff and development applicants. Reviewed development proposals for conformance with City standards and identified opportunities for non- traditional landscaping techniques and any applicable ordinance revisions needed. As a special project for the City, a redesign of the planting was developed and implementation plan for the 5th Street median to provide native plant species to promote easy maintenance, less irrigation and pollinator habitat. experience page 9 PARK PLANNING SERVICES FOR A GROWING CITY ROGERS, MN Worked with the fast-growing City of Rogers to deliver successful park projects on streamlined schedules to keep pace with the expanding city. Since 2021, six projects have been completed with four additional projects currently under design while providing on call services to assess existing parks and trails, review developer plans to evaluate potential neighborhood parks and review construction.

An upcoming road reconstruct required the addition of a second entrance to the park and the County wanted to use the opportunity to develop a master plan for the park to address conflicting uses, parking and drainage issues, and desired improvements. Partnered with the County to unify a vision for the park that can be accomplished in multiple phases, ensuring the most efficient completion of each phase with confidence there will be no rework and wasted money to complete each phase of the plan. After completing the master plan, designed the first phase of the project, the second entrance and parking lot improvements. Based on the success of the first master planning at Games Lake, the design team partnered again with Kandiyohi County to complete the same process for Diamond Lake park. The park sits on the West side of Diamond Lake and was cut off from the lake by a County Highway. The County relocated the highway and needed a new entrance along with other improvements to improve public access, park operations, safety and access to the lake. After completing two master planning projects and reconstructs for Kandiyohi County, the design team partnered again to assess all the parks within the county. Worked with the board of commissioners, park managers, parks department and the Citizens advisory committee to assess the current park amenities, the desires of the park users, and develop a planning document that aids the county with future park development projects. project manager page 11 JOE LUCHT, PLA ANDERSON PROJECT MANAGER | SENIOR LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT Overview Joe will be the project manager from the Anderson team working in concert with the City of Corcoran staff to provide landscape architecture and park planning services for multiple park projects throughout the City. His strong background in park planning and open space design will provide the City staff an exciting and engaging experience to ensure the City successfully delivers the parks vision for the community. Growing up in Delano, MN and now residing in Greenfield, MN, Joe enjoys working on projects where he lives, works and plays. His insight of the surrounding area will bring exceptional value for the City from his past and present experiences in the northwest metro communities. Joe’s philosophy is to engage the City fully to gain a thorough understanding of the program and expectations which communicates to the project team how the project can be completely executed on schedule and on budget. Once the project’s program is understood by all involved, a thorough inventory and analysis of available information that affects the site or scope is prepared. This process, in concert with locating unique features, viewsheds and unique opportunities identified during project inventory, begins to create the backdrop for the program integration. Joe builds off this backdrop with innovations and style that help distinguish the project, creates spaces that intimately fit within the regional and local context, and presents a comfortable environment with a sense of place. Project Management Experience For the past 8 years, Joe has been a project manager for Anderson. He has managed and successfully delivered over 100 projects with construction budgets ranging from $20,000 to $30 Million.

The park includes 2 - 5 and 5 - 12-year-old playgrounds, picnic shelter, sport court and both bituminous and aggregate trails that meander through and around mature trees and wetlands and connect to an adjacent city-wide trail system. Joe is currently working with the City of Rogers to develop construction documents, facilitate public bidding and provide construction administration services to successfully deliver this project. Lions Park Improvements | Rogers, MN Role: Project Manager/Sr. Landscape Architect Construction Costs: $750,000 The City of Rogers Lions Park is located near downtown Rogers centralized location for community gatherings. Joe worked closely with the City of Rogers to develop this premier amenity for the community that includes formal garden space to host outdoor weddings, stage with synthetic turf, dining area, gas fireplace and new trails that connects to a city-wide trail system. Joe provided conceptual drawings with preliminary construction cost estimates to present to the city council, developed construction documents, facilitated public bidding and actively involved through construction. Shiloh Athletic and Arts Complex and Scheels Sports Complex | Bismarck, ND Role: Landscape Architect Construction Costs: Shiloh $8.9M, Scheels $10M While employed by his previous employer in Bismarck, ND, Mr. Lucht provided design services for two separate athletic complexes adjacent to each other; Shiloh Athletic and Arts Complex and Scheels Sports Complex. To accommodate Bismarck’s growing community during the “oil boom” in 2011, both Shiloh Christian School and Bismarck Parks and Recreation District developed two state of the art sports complexes providing a destination for community and statewide members for youth competitive sports. Joe’s involvement included developing master plan concepts for these two facilities and construction document preparation for public bidding. These sports complexes challenged Joe by providing multi-level spectator viewing areas of the synthetic baseball and football fields at Shiloh and accommodating proper grading and space for stormwater management within both sites. Vehicular circulation and parking for both these sites was also critical for the success of this project by providing safe and accessible parking and drop off sites for buses and vehicles. project manager page 13 Territory Development Parks and Trails | Credit River Township, MN Role: Landscape Architect Estimated Construction Costs: $2 Million Just south of Prior Lake and west of Lakeville is the home of a 700+ acre residential community nestled within the Minnesota prairie landscape.

Funding can be limited, desired improvements may be numerous, and there may be conflicting or safety issues. Anderson strongly promotes the development of master plans for complex projects or expansions as a road map to unify and achieve the final vision. We work with public and private clients to unify their vision that can be accomplished in multiple phases, ensuring the most efficient completion of each phase with minimal and costly rework, and full confidence that there will be minimal backpedaling or second guessing if the ultimate vision will be achieved. Anderson’s approach to master planning has been successful in balancing stakeholder input by starting the process with 2 draft concept plans and opinion of cost to discuss at a concept review meeting. The two different concepts are independent attempts to inventory existing amenities, spatially layout desired improvements, address conflicting uses, and present a final view of what the project could look like. During the concept review meeting with stakeholders, we present the concepts and opinions of cost for each improvement. The result of these meetings is a selection by the stakeholders on which components of the two concepts are preferred. Following the concept review meeting, Anderson synthesizes the selected components from the 2 concepts into a final concept/master plan with a revised opinion of cost. We will also begin to breakdown the master plan into proposed phases and costs if the budget demands. Once completed, we facilitate a phasing review meeting to present the final master plan, phasing plan and opinions of cost. Sometimes this is as far as we go as our clients use the plan to budget and secure funding. Other times our clients are ready to proceed with one or more phases of construction and we proceed with preparing construction documents. Anderson’s first step in construction document preparation is to solidify the scope of work and construction budget. The second step is to develop a schedule that encompasses the client’s needs through construction. This approach forecasts the number plan reviews, meetings, permitting, potential funding source milestones, optimum bidding timeline and when the completed project is to be delivered. The third and final step is to execute step one and two through construction. Critical issues of concern in preparation of master planning and design services include making sure infrastructure is designed, functional, and cost effective. Phasing plans will ensure there is low risk of reworking previous phases and spending resources twice on improvements. By providing thoroughly thought through high quality of designs that are practical and cost effective, the approach is to deliver projects that are enjoyable by the current and future users, constructable, and maintainable by City staff. page 24 approach SAMPLE PLAN REVIEW SCHEDULE BY PHASE Because project scope and milestones vary, the below sample plan review schedule is correlated to a similar scope to the City Park Remaster Project. Duration from Project Kickoff through the delivery of Construction Documents including plan reviews is 144 calendar days. PHASE 1 – PROJECT KICKOFF AND SITE INVESTIGATIONS: 36 CALENDAR DAYS The project will begin with a kickoff meeting and site investigations. This phase will include a site visit with analysis of the project area existing conditions, photo documentation, and other investigations to fully understand the site. » TASK 1.1 - PROJECT KICKOFF MEETING: We want to be a partner assisting the City of Corcoran to complete their park projects and provide ample opportunity for city involvement. Our initial kickoff meeting will introduce team members, City staff and stakeholders. It will provide an opportunity for our team to learn more about the project from key staff members, and have initial questions answered. The goals for the project will be discussed and confirmed, and we will present a project schedule and process for project completion. DURATION: 1 Day » TASK 1.2 – EXISTING CONDITIONS STUDIES: To fully understand the existing conditions of the project site, investigations such as a topographic and utility survey or geotechnical investigations may be required. This will be determined during the project kickoff meeting based on the team’s discussions with the City staff and visual assessment of the project area. Additional studies including potential platting or easements, traffic, wetland delineation, environmental assessments, and similar will be identified if necessary. DURATION: 30 Days » TASK 1.3 – SITE INVENTORY AND ANALYSIS: Our site analysis is an important step to fully understanding the existing conditions. We will walk the site, observe and photograph important features, understand the complex circulation and visitor amenity needs, and visually assess opportunities and constraints to the site. We will review the topographic survey of the project area to map all existing conditions and natural features, significant trees, tree lines, watercourses, site features, cultural resources, structures, public and private utilities, and topographic data and analyze the site. DURATION: 5 Days PHASE 2 – SCHEMATIC DESIGN | MASTER PLAN: 37 CALENDAR DAYS This phase will develop concepts based on the kick-off meetings discussions with city staff and stakeholders, existing conditions studies and analysis. » TASK 2.1 – CONCEPT PLAN DEVELOPMENT: Armed with real world information, the design program will be layered onto the survey base drawing. With accurate survey data and additional investigative studies (if required), the design team will prepare two concepts with opinion of cost to present to City staff and stakeholders. DURATION: 15 DAYS » TASK 2.2 – CONCEPT PLAN REVIEW MEETING: As part of the concept plan process, we will meet with city staff and stakeholders to present investigative findings, analysis, two concept plans and opinion of cost. City staff, stakeholders and the project team will select the preferred components of the two concepts. DURATION: 5 DAYS for city review, 1 DAY for review meeting page 25 approach » TASK 2.3 – FINAL MASTER PLAN | SCHEMATIC DESIGN: Based on the results of the concept plan review meeting, the project team will solidify the design based on the selection of preferred components and show a comprehensive master plan, with potential phasing, and update the opinion of cost. If desired by the City, the final master plan may include additional sketches or product photographs to the convey the design intent. DURATION: 10 DAYS » TASK 2.4 – PHASING REVIEW MEETING: To complete the master planning process, we will meet with city staff and stakeholders to present the final master plan with initial phasing displays and opinion of cost. Phasing, if required, will be discussed and altered if needed based on the City’s needs of the project. The design team will not proceed to the next phase of design until the City has approved the master plan direction. DURATION: 5 DAYS for city review, 1 DAY for review meeting PHASE 3 – DESIGN DEVELOPMENT: 41 CALENDAR DAYS » TASK 3.1 – PLAN DEVELOPMENT: Our first step will be to confirm that any changes and phasing requested by the city during the phasing review meeting have been incorporated into our drawings. We will then advance the design of the proposed improvements. The project team will begin to design specific elements of the project including a strategy for erosion control and stormwater management to meet Elm Creek Watershed Management Commission requirements, site clearing and removals, geometric layout plans, grading and drainage plans, utility plans, architectural floor plans including MEP and structural designs and details for construction. An opinion of cost will also be prepared at this time. DURATION: 30 DAYS » TASK 3.2 – DESIGN DEVELOPMENT REVIEW MEETING: Once the design development plans are complete, we will coordinate a meeting final meeting with city staff to review the design. Our project team will discuss the major design elements, decisions, changes from schematic design and review the opinion of cost with City staff. City review comments and concerns will be addressed and final decisions for the project will be made. DURATION: 10 DAYS for city review, 1 DAY for review meeting PHASE 4 – CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS, SPECIFICATIONS, PERMITTING AND BIDDING: 70 CALENDAR DAYS The design team will prepare Construction Documents utilizing input from the final review meeting. The permitting process will also begin. » TASK 4.1 – PREPARE CONSTRUCTION DOCUMENTS: The project team will assemble the fully engineered final construction documents and specifications in preparation for bidding. Plans and specifications will be fully detailed for clarity during the bidding and construction phases. Also, a final opinion of cost will be prepared. The design team will submit a preliminary set of drawings and specifications to the City for review and comment prior issuing signed documents. DURATION: 30 DAYS, 10 DAYS for city review » TASK 4.2 – PROJECT PERMITTING: The project team will prepare all necessary permitting documents and applications for the project. We anticipate the project will require a permit from Elm Creek Watershed Management Commission, Minnesota Pollution Control Agency, the City of Corcoran and Minnesota DNR. Depending upon findings earlier in the project, permitting for some of these agencies may begin earlier than Phase 4 to ensure the permit is in hand prior to construction. DURATION: N/A, executed during Task 4.1 or earlier. page 26 litigation disclosure conclusion approach » TASK 4.3 – BIDDING ASSISTANCE: The project team will be available to assist the city through the public bidding process.

Thanks to neighborhood residents, what initially began as an effort to improve the playability and durability of the athletic fields also became a larger initiative to improve the park’s ability to serve nearby families and residents with neighborhood park amenities. In addition to a new premier baseball diamond and improved baseball and softball fields, improvements include new pickleball courts, basketball courts, play area, and concessions/ picnic facilities. Mature trees were preserved and relocated and a berm that will double as a sledding hill was built to buffer homes from activities at the ballfields. Skating and hockey rinks will be expanded.

RELEVANT EXPERIENCE Client: City of Otsego Featured Project: Carricks Landing Concept Plan and Design (Grant funded) HKGi provided the City of Otsego with concept planning services for the development of a paddle launch on the Mississippi River at Carrick’s Landing Park. Initial planning included the creation of a development concept to identify the best location for the launch and explore potential configurations. HKGi continued its work on the next implementation phases, including schematic design assistance with grant writing to help fund the improvement project. Improvements under development include stairway and an accessible ramp to provide access to the riverfront; a new shelter; wayfinding signage; benches; a new connection from the parking lot to the landing; and a floating dock. 5 Proposal - Master Park Planning & Design - City of Corcoran < For full cutsheet, align sidebar to this guide Client: City of St. Francis Featured Projects: Park & Trail System Plan & Community Park Master Plan As part of its services to the City of St. Francis, HKGi worked with staff and community members to develop a park system plan that will guide the City as it seeks to enhance its park system while the city grows. HKGi compiled an inventory of St. Francis’ park and trail assets and conducted a needs assessment that included benchmarking against neighboring peer communities and national park and recreation standards. Preliminary parks and trails mapping developed by HKGi established a data-driven foundation for the system plan. As part of the planning process, HKGi’s landscape architects also created a replacement and budget schedule and developed concept plans for three community and neighborhood parks: Community Park, Hidden Ponds Park, and Woodbury Park. Subsequent planning included creating a more detailed master plan for Community Park. This process included a feasibility study and refined concept planning. HKGi also produced 3D renderings to help illustrate critical park improvements. Client: City of Chaska Featured Project: Veterans Park Design, Construction Documentation and Administration HKGi worked with the City of Chaska and VFW Post #1731 to develop a new park that pays tribute to service members yet also respects those members’ desire for the park to be a welcoming place people come together. HKGi’s concept included several remembrance-themed features including a Service Plaza and a Coin Check display that will allow veterans to share their stories. A Memorial Grove of Serviceberry trees leads to the Remembrance Clearing, whose dramatically lit sculptures will be visible from Fireman’s Park on the other side of the lake. Play elements include a picnic lawn, horseshoe pits, archery range, and an obstacle course-themed play area. Because of the unique nature of several of the park’s furnishings and features, HKGi conducted a substantial amount of research, worked with vendors to custom-design and fabricate memorial and display elements, and coordinated with construction and installation contractors to ensure the final product remained true to the initial concepts and spirit of the park.

The 126-acre park features trails and a beach to a bandstand and lots of play and athletic facilities. The City retained HKGi in fall of 2021 to conduct a master planning process to help City leaders understand what park improvements residents and stakeholders would like to see and to identify potential costs to replace aging facilities and reconfigure elements that no longer function effectively. The 24 improvement initiatives outlined in the plan include a mix of new program elements, improvements and upkeep of existing facilities, and some reorganizing of the park’s layout to address issues such as accessibility and conflicting uses in proximity to one another. Some of the more notable recommendations include enhanced amenities at Watzl’s Beach, public access docks, new pickleball/tennis courts, an inclusive playground, a new splash pad, a new and relocated skate park, a new winter warming house in a reorganized winter activity area, and a new disc golf course.

HKGi was retained to lead the community through its first system wide planning process. HKGi assessed current conditions, including identifying levels of access, distribution of facilities, and gaps in the system. The planning process also addressed the City’s desire to establish a new set of guiding principles that will provide a framework for future decision-making and measuring the success of implementation initiatives. Among several key outcomes, the high level of community participation and support for the parks system inspired the City Council to designate maintenance and enhancement of parks and trails as a key funding priority for future budgets. This priority funding has enabled the City to budget for annual playground replacements to ensure that aging and worn equipment is cycled out and replaced by new equipment. 7 Proposal - Master Park Planning & Design - City of Corcoran <Align image to this guide Qualifications Gabrielle has worked in a project management role with many growing municipalities, including the cities of Otsego, Maple Grove, Farmington, Prior Lake, and several growing counties, including Sherburne, Wright, Rice, and Stearns. Over the past 15 years, most of Gabrielle’s work has been managing park system planning and park master planning projects for cities and counties in Minnesota and Wisconsin. She has led engagement processes, facilitated public and stakeholder meetings, and presented at city and county board, commission, and council meetings. Her role on projects has included overall project management, managing client and stakeholder communication, writing reports, and developing maps and graphics, and presenting project findings and recommendations in public meetings. Gabrielle is a skilled project manager with the ability to understand processes from planning to funding to design and construction. Her excellent listening and communication skills are valuable on complex projects where many stakeholders are involved in order to keep track of key dates and tasks. Maintaining flexibility and being responsive are services that HKGi will provide to the city of Corcoran. Her value to client communities is exemplified by the number of long-standing clients that she has developed over her career. People like working with her because she is a responsive and clear communicator, and holds her work to very high standards. HKGi has intentionally not included any specific project partners as part of our team for this proposal. We are doing that because our approach to project delivery includes aligning our team for each project that provides the best product and value for our client communities. Regarding a need for engineering or architectural support, HKGi maintains working relationships with many local Architects and Engineering firms that provide teaming options for us depending on the project scale and budget. Our approach for any of your park or trail improvement projects is to work with City staff to add skills and expertise to a design team that complement our landscape architecture and planning services, and bring the best value to the design process. Knowing that Stantec is the City Engineer for Corcoran, we are glad to consider their support to the design team if the City sees them as an efficient project partner. We have successfully teamed on many other park improvement projects with them and have always had a great working relationship with their staff. We have also worked with Stantec on several community park and trail projects.

Gabrielle led an Advisory Committee through a process of evaluating existing conditions, gathering and interpreting public and stakeholder input, and developing a concept for new roads, parking lots, ballfields, an amphitheater, pickleball courts, hockey rinks, a playground and splashpad, trails, and a park pavilion. After detailed engineering analysis of the proposed concept estimated a $20 million cost for all new facilities, City Council directed the consultant team to conduct an evaluation of the city’s park system to determine if there were existing parks where new facilities could be incorporated. Gabrielle led the HKGi team in a park and trail system asset management analysis, which analyzed existing and potential future funding for proposed projects throughout the system. An outcome of the park system analysis included a master planning process for the city’s main community park: Rambling River Park. Gabrielle managed the Rambling River Park Master Plan process, which included a fast-paced and comprehensive community and stakeholder engagement process, site analysis, concept exploration, and creation of a detailed schematic plan with associated phasing and cost estimates to guide the city in the next phase of project implementation. Wright County Great River Regional Trail Master Plan Gabrielle worked with the Wright County parks department to develop a master plan for regional designation of the Great River Regional Trail, a 30-mile non-motorized trail corridor along the Mississippi River. The planning process involved a project team with multiple city partners, online and in-person public engagement, a detailed evaluation of land ownership, adjacencies, connections, viewsheds, topography, cost considerations, and cultural interpretation. The comprehensive plan document identifies several segments of proposed trail development along with an innovative bike- paddle loop with key connections to canoe/kayak opportunities on the river. Detailed cost estimates and phasing provide the county with a strong plan for implementation. The plan was successful in achieving regional designation, and portions of the trail have been constructed since its adoption. One of two concepts being evaluated for the Rambling River Park activity areas. The GRRT Master Plan included renderings and a fly-through video to illustrate the intended character of the trail (top). Destinations in the three communities along the trail were mapped to aid the communities in understanding the potential economic impact of the trail (bottom). 10 Proposed Lead Technicians <Align image to this guide Qualifications Tim provides leadership and services related to park design; construction bidding, management and administration; daily client service; design standards guidance; resident project representative services; and city engineer support services.

The concepts and ideas that emerge from this process result in great places that offer the community great outdoor experiences. All of our projects begin with a kick off meeting to review the proposed project schedule, expectations for communication and engagement, and our role as the consultant. Our goal is to keep projects on schedule and work with the city to lead or support in the role that is desired. We remain responsive and attentive to the needs of a project, and we will suggest modifications to the schedule, process, or work scope as needed to ensure a high quality final product that meets the city’s objectives.

The kick-off meeting is an opportunity for HKGi to begin the learning process by talking with city staff about its potential needs, challenges, and opportunities. The kick-off meeting is also used to confirm project schedules, roles and responsibilities, and preferred methods of communications and coordination. 18 Approach Listen Our park and trail master planning processes incorporate meaningful public input opportunities for residents and existing park users to help us evaluate ideas and determine which park improvements best fit the needs and desires of the community. Site visits and site analysis with city staff and key stakeholders enable us to use the inherent strengths of the site as the basis for the final Master Plan. Building a plan that responds to input also ensures that it will have a strong foundation of community support. We utilize several online and in-person engagement tools to match the needs of each project. Online surveys and interactive mapping software are valuable tools for soliciting public input on parks and trails use and ideas for improvements. In-person and virtual stakeholder meetings and interviews help us learn important background information about concerns or conflicts that need to be addressed through the planning process. Our graphically engaging outreach materials (flyers, postcards, social media graphics, and yard signs) are designed to brand the planning and design process and build excitement in the community. We also write press releases and other project summaries to convey the appropriate information to public officials, stakeholders, and community members. We understand the importance of providing the public with information that will set expectations for potentially complex processes for implementation. Public engagement is critical, but providing clear, concise summaries of input collected from stakeholders is just as important. HKGi designs engagement summaries that staff and city leaders can use to demonstrate community support for investments in the parks and recreation system. The online tools HKGi uses (top) also enable people to review input in greater detail. 19 Proposal - Master Park Planning & Design - City of Corcoran Explore HKGi’s typical park master planning and design processes include the development of two to three concept plans, which are evaluated by the project team, city staff, stakeholders, and the public, as appropriate. We use the inventory and needs assessment (existing survey data, GIS layers, photographs, site visit information, community input, etc.) to lay the groundwork for these concepts. Our process of exploration may include design workshops or charrettes where client and consultant representatives meet to capture ideas on paper. Working quickly and intensely, we can develop several conceptual ideas for a park site. These ideas are then refined and tested in more detail to discover which concepts rise to the top. HKGi has developed detailed asset management tools for several city and county clients over the past ten years. We tailor the tool to the client based on existing data and desired use of the tool. Utilizing Excel spreadsheets and GIS data, we will develop a detailed cost breakdown of capital, operations, and replacement costs needed for the next 10-20 years. Compounded inflation, design and engineering, and soft costs can be included to give a full picture of funding needed to maintain a parks and trail system and to enhance it with new facilities. By identifying projects and tying funding and timelines to the existing and future assets, we can help the city make informed decisions about future projects and investments. 3D renderings are a great way to generate excitement about park improvement projects. They also enable the design team to test different ideas or concepts to understand how they might function or look upon implementation. 20 Approach Create Since we have the in-house knowledge and experience of all phases of planning and design, we can seamlessly transition a project from planning all the way through construction. Our landscape architects work on the ground and in the field to review project schedules, solicit bids, and conduct construction administration. Our approach to the implementation and construction of projects focuses on the intent of the original plans, ensuring the details of the project will work together and result in a space that will be built correctly and provide excellent experiences for all who visit. We will review the proposed 30% design for the City Park remaster to ensure the desired park program is incorporated in an efficient and effective design. Initially we will look broadly at the park program and discuss with staff the ideas within the context of trends and future recreation demands for the City. HKGi has extensive experience in helping cities understand future demand related to sports facilities and will leverage that knowledge in the assessment of the current design program for the park. After confirming the park program, we will review the parking demand for the proposed program and work with engineering to incorporate creative approaches to site layout, grading, and stormwater management. The features and amenities within the park should provide access for all park users, work well for city operations and maintenance staff, offer flexibility in layout for seasonal variations and all potential events and activities, and be built to last. As part of our implementation strategy, we will collaborate with staff to determine the best delivery method for the proposed park elements, including potentially leveraging a vendor-based approach to park buildings and structures like pavilions and playgrounds. We have found that this approach can often more efficiently provide the implementation of specific park features, by leveraging vendor-based design and engineering of the components as opposed to having the consulting team conduct all of the design and engineering tasks. Gleason Fields Athletic Complex in Maple Grove, seen here at the ribbon cutting event in summer 2023, is a tournament-level ballfield complex. The ballfields all feature covered seating as in the example of the premiere field shown above. The park also features several neighborhood park amenities to ensure that the park remains a neighborhood gathering place.

Jessica Christensen Buck City of Corcoran 8200 County Road 116 Corcoran, MN 55340 SUBJECT: PROPOSAL FOR MASTER PARK PLANNING AND DESIGN SERVICES Dear Jessica Christensen Buck and Members of the Selection Committee: The City of Corcoran is experiencing a period of intense growth that will create opportunities for new parks and recreation facilities and will require upgrades to existing parks. City Park, which is the City’s crown jewel, is the perfect location to add new recreation amenities that are desired by current and future residents. An important park like City Park, deserves the best planning that will help the City through the first phase of the redevelopment to create a highly functional park that will benefit the entire community. New neighborhoods, like Bellwether, need to be connected to the larger trail network that has been planned through Corcoran, including local and regional trails. An important component of the Bellwether development is to create pedestrian access to the new recreation facility, and a boardwalk across the wetland adjacent to the facility will provide the most efficient access for residents. The successful planning and implementation of this work will demand a seasoned and experienced team, one that City staff can trust and with whom they can collaborate to develop the City Park remaster plan, and prepare final design and bidding to complete the project within the desired timeframe of summer 2024. Equally important is the ability to develop plans for the boardwalk in the Bell- wether Neighborhood so construction can commence during the winter of 2024, when conditions are perfect for building boardwalks. SRF Consulting Group, Inc. (SRF), is excited to be part of this project, and we have assembled an experienced team of landscape architects, planners, structural, civil and water resource engineers to undertake this multi-phase planning and design effort. SRF’s planning approach focuses on the following key areas: TECHNICAL EXPERTISE | The SRF team includes technical park design, municipal and structural skill sets that can evaluate the current site conditions to ensure proposed concepts are implementable for the City. Our Team of multidisciplinary professionals has worked collaboratively on many park and trail projects, and we understand what is needed to implement park updates, new trails and boardwalks in sensitive areas. COST-EFFECTIVE RECOMMENDATIONS | As part of the planning process, the SRF team will refine the existing 30 percent plan for City Park in a way that maximizes the City’s return on investment in the short term and minimizes maintenance needs in the long term. For the Bellwether boardwalk project, SRF has recent experience in designing and administering construction for similar boardwalks and will be able to provide the City with realistic and achievable cost estimates that will benefit the bidding process for the construction phase. PROCESS AND COMMUNICATION | We are committed to working closely with the City of Corcoran staff during all phases of planning, design, and construction. Communication is the key to every assignment, reinforcing the trust and support needed to successfully design – and implement – park development efforts. ENTHUSIASM AND EFFICIENCY | The SRF team will bring enthusiasm and energy to this planning and design effort to make this an enjoyable process for all stakeholders. We are committed to completing tasks on time with creative, high-quality outcomes. We look forward to the opportunity to meet with you to discuss the approach we have outlined for undertaking your park planning and design effort.

City of Corcoran | Master Park Planning and Design Services 3SRF Consulting Group EXPERIENCE OF THE FIRM WITH SIMILAR WORK SRF has prepared park master plans for multiple communities around the state of Minnesota. In the last five years, we have worked with the following communities: • City of Bloomington • City of Blaine • City of Eden Prairie • City of Moorhead • City of New Ulm • City of Plymouth • City of Otsego • City of Oakdale • City of Robbinsdale • City of Rosemount • City of St Louis Park • City of St Paul • City of Stillwater • City of Duluth • City of Eagan • City of Roseville • Three Rivers Park District • Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board • Dakota County • Scott County • Becker County • Otter Tail County • Hubbard County • Stearns County • Washington County • MN Department of Natural Resources Diamond Lake Regional Trail Master Plan Three Rivers Park District, Minnesota The Diamond Lake Regional Trail will be a 25-mile-long north/ south trail extending from Lake Minnetonka to the Mississippi River through central Hennepin County. SRF worked with Three Rivers Park District for over two years to develop the master plan for the Diamond Lake Regional Trail. This trail extends through six communities, including Wayzata, Orono, Medina, Corcoran, Day- ton, and Rogers. The trail will connect with several other planned and developed regional trails, Baker Park Reserve and Elm Creek Park Reserve. SRF conducted extensive public engagement with outreach geared toward adjacent property owners, underprivi- leged trail users, and trail users in the surrounding communities. Complicating matters, the master plan was developed during the Covid-19 pandemic, so SRF and the Park District facilitated several online open house and engagement events and met community members outside along the corridor to receive input. The Diamond Lake Regional Trail will become a key north-south trail that will provide exciting off-road recreation opportunities and transportation options for trail users. Otsego Neighborhood Parks Otsego, Minnesota The City of Otsego is a fast-growing suburban com munity northwest of Minneapolis. The City’s popula tion and housing growth has spurred park develop ment to accommodate the influx of new residents. Recognizing the importance of recreational ameni ties to their expanding population, the City retained SRF to design three new neighborhood park facilities. These parks vary in size from five to seven acres and with both active and passive recreational amenities that include playgrounds, walking paths, basketball courts, tennis courts, a picnic pavilion, and athletic fields. During the design process, SRF emphasized creat ing parks that support a wide variety of recreational activities and installed low-maintenance turf and landscape areas to minimize mainte- nance costs for the City. City of Corcoran | Master Park Planning and Design Services 4SRF Consulting Group Avonlea Community Park Lakeville, Minnesota The City of Lakeville commissioned SRF to prepare concepts, schematic grading plan, cost estimates, and assist with commu- nity engagement for this 40-acre community park. Key amenities include several grass multi-use green fields, an artificial turf multi- use field, a premier baseball field, pickleball courts, a destination play area and splash pad, and restroom/concessions buildings. Other features include a youth challenge course, adult fitness equipment, and a lighted loop trail system. The site, located on Cedar Avenue, provides a central location within the city for youth tournaments and offers good access for vehicular and pedestrian circulation. Based on feedback received from staff, community members, the Park and Recreation Commission, and City Council, SRF prepared a preferred master plan for the park. SRF will begin preparing final plans in 2023. The Lakes Neighborhood & Community Parks Blaine, Minnesota In order to meet the needs of a new residential community, several vacant properties ranging in size from one and seven acres were dedicated for the development of neighborhood and community parks. SRF worked with the City of Blaine to develop master plans for these community and neighborhood park facilities, which will be integrated with surrounding development and natural amenities. Several alternative concepts were generated for each park property and areas were defined for incorporating no-mow turf areas to minimize maintenance needs. Amenities in each park included establishment of internal pathway circulation, playgrounds, bas- ketball courts, informal open lawn areas, and landscaping to reinforce park edges and entries to each park. TRPD French Regional Park Creative Play Area Plymouth, Minnesota SRF worked closely with Three Rivers Park District staff and a diverse group of stakeholders, including a fourth-grade class from a local elementary school, in developing a new destination play area within this extremely popular regional park. The play area site, located adjacent to an existing visitor center and parking area, afforded opportunities to use grade change to provide accessible circulation to the upper level of the play structure via walls and elevated ramps. In addition, a berm with decorative rubber safety surfacing provides access to the ramp system from the lower level of the play area while providing an accessible transition point between elements within the upper level. Key features of the play area include a three-level tower with slides and climbers, an extensive system of climbing nets, multi-user swings, a sand/water play node, mist towers, and a playhouse for the 2-5 age group. The surrounding site includes generous patio spaces with seating, shade structures, and landscape planting. All circulation routes comply with the requirements of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The play area opened to the public in August of 2018. City of Corcoran | Master Park Planning and Design Services 5SRF Consulting Group Comprehensive Plan Update Park, Trail, Recreation, and Open Space Chapter Plymouth, Minnesota SRF assisted the City of Plymouth in preparing the Park, Trail, Rec- reation, and Open Space Chapter of the 2030 Comprehensive Plan: • Refining the location and sizing of eight neighborhood parks • Analyzing existing/potential dog park locations • Developing concepts for enhancing three beaches • Refining the City’s non-motorized transportation system, including trails, sidewalks and on-street bicycle facilities • Developing concepts for three at-grade trail crossings of a railroad corridor • Developing concepts for a new special use park and a portion of Plymouth Creek Park • Proposing potential initiatives for the City to partner with other public/privates entities • Analyzing the need, role and options for public art within the City • Refining the City’s Northwest Greenway Plan The Northwest Greenway will use existing parks, wetland buffers, easements and potential open space acquisitions to create an ecological and recreational corridor in a primarily rural part of the city. Portions of the greenway are slated for development within the 2030 planning horizon, which made current planning crucial in the preservation and enhancement of this corridor. SRF worked closely with City staff and elected officials in discuss- ing alternatives. Subsequently, we made recommendations that will guide the City in their future acquisition, development, and preservation efforts. SRF produced full-color maps of the greenways, existing and pro- posed parks, trail system, population projections by neighborhood, and other elements of the planning process. A great majority of this work was done using GIS, which enabled us to efficiently and accurately analyze the City’s park, trail, and open space systems. Northwest Greenway Phase IV Boardwalk Plymouth, Minnesota This project continued SRF’s work with the NW Greenway Trail Bridge over Vicksburg Lane by continuing the trail system west of the trail bridge. An 861-foot boardwalk was designed to cross wetlands between Peony Lane and the trail connection where Phase 3 ended, to the east. SRF provide trail design, grading, paving, turf establishment, erosion control final design plans. Our structures team designed a meandering boardwalk and scenic overlook supported on micropile foundations with timber pile caps. With the natural environment in mind, designers used timber framing and decking throughout the boardwalk, lined with a timber and wire mesh railing.

City of Corcoran | Master Park Planning and Design Services 16SRF Consulting Group APPROACH TO PARK DEVELOPMENT The City of Corcoran’s three park development needs, including City Park Remaster project, Open Space Parks, and Future Park Development require three different approaches. The SRF Team has the capability to provide for all three park development needs, and we have outlined approaches for each below. City Park Remaster Project The City Park Remaster Project includes completing the design of Phase 1 of the park project and implementing the construction process to complete several previously identified infrastructure improvements and user amenities. The City of Corcoran has developed a 30 percent plan that will be the basis for the design. The scope for this project will include developing 60 and 90 per- cent plans, and final plans and specifications, bidding assistance, and construction administration. To achieve this, the SRF Team will follow the approach outlined below. Kick-Off & Site Analysis To begin the City Park Remaster project, SRF will hold a kick-off meeting with City Staff to confirm individual roles and responsibili- ties, the project schedule, and confirm what site analysis elements are still needed, such as topographic site survey, wetland delinea- tion and geotechnical analysis. If these elements are required, SRF has staff that can complete the site survey and wetland delineation. We will need to contract with an environmental engineering firm for a geotechnical analysis for building, parking and roadway sites. Design Development, Affirm 30 Percent Plans Once the site analysis is complete, SRF will affirm the 30 percent plan to ensure that it can be constructed as designed. Modifica- tions to the design may be needed based on new information learned during the site analysis. The City intends to include new and updated amenities in the park including parking lots, a park road, a sand volleyball court, a basketball court, a tennis court, six pickleball courts, hockey rinks, an open skating rink, a splashpad, a playground, a park building/pavilion, trails and trail amenities, and landscaping. Some of these elements will require additional design consultants, such as the splash pad and the park building/ pavilion, and SRF can facilitate obtaining these additional consul- tants to contract directly with the City or as part of the SRF Team. An updated 30 percent plan will be developed for City staff review and approval. We assume that the current design files for the 30 percent plan will be shared with the design team to facilitate the design process. An updated cost estimate will be prepared at the 30 percent plan level. Construction Documents Once the City has approved the updated 30 percent plan, the SRF Team will move onto final design and developing construction documents. Final design will include preparation of 60%, 90% and 100% plan sets, including utility connections, and project specifications. We will coordinate with the City on additional specifications, such as front-end specifications that will be needed for the final bid set. Final cost estimates will be prepared with the final design and presented to the City for review. Bidding The SRF Team is experienced in developing bid documents and soliciting proposals online through Quest CDN. We will prepare all bid documents and we will assist the City in preparing for bidding, including submitting advertisements in local papers or other venues, as needed. Once bids are received, the SRF Team will review the apparent low bidder’s proposal and prepare a letter of recommendation for the City. Construction Administration During construction, the SRF Team will lead construction admin- istration activities. The SRF project manager will be the primary contact between the contractor and the City, and will coordinate weekly construction meetings, review materials submittals, review pay applications, and provide a final punch list once substantial completion is achieved. We assume that the City will handle material testing for concrete, aggregate and bituminous materials, but SRF can facilitate hiring a testing firm this service at an additional cost. SRF can also assist the City in communicating with residents and nearby businesses during construction to keep interested parties updated in the project’s progress. The following preliminary schedule outlines the process we will undertake to complete design development, construction docu- ments, bidding and construction to meet the City’s timeline for developing City Park.

City of Corcoran | Master Park Planning and Design Services 18SRF Consulting Group Open Space Parks The Bellwether and Ravinia developments, which are currently under construction, will require park and trail planning services. The SRF Team is familiar with these developments, as we completed the Diamond Lake Regional Trail Master Plan for Three Rivers Park District, and we are currently identifying locations for a future trail grade-separated-crossing under CSAH 116 near Hunter’s Ridge. Our knowledge of the area, and our experience developing parks and trails for similar developments will allow the SRF Team to bring immediate value to the City for park master planning services. Planning for the Bellwether Development is the first priority, and we propose creating a Project Advisory Committee (PAC) to help guide the planning process for parks and trails. Committee mem- bers may include City staff, representatives from the developer, current residents, and Elm Creek Watershed District (ECWD) staff. Working with the PAC, the SRF Team will hold a series of up to four meetings to introduce the park planning process, develop up to two park concept alternatives, and refine the alternatives into a preferred concept plan based on PAC input. SRF’s structural engineers will be included in the planning process to share insight on boardwalk design for the Bellwether Park and Trail plan. We have designed and administered construction for several similar boardwalks in Maple Grove and Plymouth in recent years and are familiar with ECWD requirements and can provide current pricing for boardwalk development. A similar process can be developed for the Ravinia Development, once that project is underway. Future Park Development Corcoran is growing rapidly, and future development will expand the City’s residential, retail, and light industrial footprint. The Parks and Trails Chapter in Corcoran’s 2040 Comprehensive Plan nicely lays out the City’s plan for developing recreational amenities as the city grows. The plan identifies park and trail development within the 2040 Metropolitan Urban Services Area (MUSA) boundary and has a separate strategy for parks and trails outside this area. This plan will help Corcoran focus park and trail development where it is needed most in the next several years. The SRF Team has experience developing park and trail master plans for neighborhood parks, community parks, and trails and parkways. Our experience working in developing communities will allow us to consider important connections between Corcoran’s existing developments and new projects, creating linkages to proposed regional trails and Corcoran’s local trail network. The proposed Bellwether boardwalk will extend across this wetland to connect both sides of the neighborhood.

We have partnered with Alliiance Architects for any building architectural requirements to provide a comprehensive team of professionals well prepared to lead the City of Corcoran through the development of new and improved park spaces, as the City continues to grow and evolve. We have partnered with Alliiance Architects many times in the past and have developed a seamless process of collaboration that has resulted in successful outcomes for our clients. Project Understanding Our team has reviewed the RFPQ, is familiar with the City of Corcoran, and have a solid understanding of this exciting project. This park master planning process will guide the future redevelopment of City Park, open space parks in the Bellweather and Ravinia developments, as well as other future parks and trails throughout the City of Corcoran. With demographics that continue to grow and evolve, it is anticipated that changes to how existing parks are used and the addition of new parks will bring new opportunities to the community. Our team will ensure that park design is based on both current and projected needs and trends. Our team appreciates the City’s commitment and approach to preparing this Park Planning and design project. Our team recognizes and shares your passion for parks and recreation and the value it provides communities. Our past projects have been highly regarded by our clients as being visionary and implementable, with community support for improvements. Many of our past planning efforts have proven useful in successful bond referendums, tax levies, and/ or grant funding to implement the vision established in the plan. KICKOFF MEETING At the start of the project, the WSB design team will meet with the City of Corcoran to fully review and identify the key contacts/team throughout the design process as well as to develop a very clear understanding of the intended project outcome and the expectations of the WSB design team. This will include reviewing the overall project schedule for key dates as they relate to the process and deliverables, the project approach, key project stakeholders, and general discussion about the overall goals, vision, and concerns related to this project. It is our intent to hold this meeting in person unless the City indicates otherwise. The following detailed work plan provides comprehensive services to fulfill the requirements of the RFP. Approach to Park Development | 15A Proposal and Qualifications for Master Park Planning and Design Services for the City of Corcoran Existing Field Conditions WSB will conduct individual site visits to each park or potential park location in order to provide a high-level understanding of how well a park is meeting design standards in its current development and identify the potential opportunities of each site. These visits will provide critical insight from a programming and design perspective. We also use this time to look at each site’s characteristics, landforms, and intrinsic opportunities that can be used to our advantage during the planning process. City staff will be invited to tour the sites with the design team to provide their insights regarding known opportunities or challenges to consider during the evaluations. The WSB team will also provide Topographic Survey, Geotech, Environmental Site Assessments, Wetland delineations or other environmental services as needed to identify all of the unique existing features and constraints, as well as determine potential development feasibility at each site. Project Design Based on the 30% design plans for City park, and other preliminary concepts previously explored for the open space sites, the Preliminary Design task will develop and confirm the unique programmatic items to be included within each project site moving forward. Amenity sizing and relationships will be confirmed, and integration of other park design elements will take place. This design phase will include the preparation of written text, plans, photos, product info, and other drawings necessary to describe the design, materials, colors, textures in sufficient detail for the City to envision the appearance and function of the improvements. Key goals in this phase of design will be: -Develop a plan that will result in the creation of welcoming parks with appealing elements to excite the community and increase usage -Use of park planning best practices to provide safe and inviting amenities to the community -Incorporate sustainability strategies (environmental, community, financial) for long term success -Deliver effective projects in a timely and fiscally responsible manner. Preliminary design will include using the appropriate design standards for the identified facilities and preparing design development drawings. The drawings anticipated to be prepared for each site would include, but not be limited to, site layout, landscaping, grading, removals plans, site utility plans, site lighting plans, site building plans and details as required. An estimate of the cost to construct these improvements will be developed and refined based on these documents. From this estimate the City shall determine which of the improvements shall be included in the final design. WSB will develop a strategic approach to implementation to guide the development, redevelopment, and improvements that will have the greatest positive impact on the community and foster support for subsequent improvements. With our expertise in park and public space construction, we can identify the best methods to reduce overall operation and maintenance costs while increasing the lifespan of the built features. We have also aided our clients in the preparation of numerous types of state and national grant funding applications after master plans have been adopted. Once the design options are fully explored and selected, WSB will prepare final Construction Documents. These documents shall include plans, details, and specifications in sufficient detail for the City to pursue competitive bids for the construction of the improvements. Approach to Park Development | 16A Proposal and Qualifications for Master Park Planning and Design Services for the City of Corcoran MEETINGS The design team will schedule and facilitate routine check-in meetings with City staff to ensure progress is consistent with City goals and budget throughout all phases of the design process. WSB will also attend and participate in small-group meetings with identified key leaders and stakeholder representatives to discuss opportunities and ideas associated with the park design and process. We intend to leverage the stakeholder work to ensure a cross- section of perspectives and representatives from the identified groups can participate. We anticipate that the stakeholder groups may include, but not be limited to City Council and Commissions, City staff, affected property owners, athletic groups, seniors, school district, or others as identified throughout the stakeholder identification process. ESTIMATING WSB will prepare a comprehensive cost estimate at each stage of design for the improvements that will guide the investment in the park system based on the implementation strategy. The WSB design team has a strong track record of real-world budgeting that are in line with actual construction costs including consideration of construction contingencies, professional design fees, permitting fees, and other budget impacts that can often be overlooked at a planning stage. This provides our clients with a degree of confidence in establishing budgets for implementation. The WSB Team has a staff of estimators who keep a close eye on the construction cost climate in terms of escalation and material availability. Permitting WSB will work with agencies to identify the permitting review and approval process, including, but not limited to the following: -Completion and submittal of the NPDES stormwater permit. Assumes erosion control plan, SWPPP, and required erosion and sediment control details. -MN Wetland Conservation Act: If the Aquatic Resource assessment concludes wetlands or other aquatic resources exist, the approved delineated boundaries will be incorporated into project design for wetland impact avoidance and minimization considerations. If impacts are required, WSB will prepare the permit application for a wetland replacement plan decision. -Watershed District Permitting -Other local, state and federal agency permitting Bidding Assistance It is understood that the project will be bid for construction in 2024. WSB will work in partnership with the City in preparation and development of a bid document that fits the project goals and schedules. WSB will provide services to facilitate the bidding process of the project as noted in the RFP. Deliverables: The final document and supporting graphics will be provided in a reader friendly digital format (e.g., Adobe package, MS Word). The final products, as well as all presentation materials (i.e., Power Point presentations, maps, graphics, etc.) used throughout the planning process, will be shared with the City of Corcoran. Final Construction plans and as-built drawings will be provided in digital (pdf) format as well as AutoCAD (dwg) or GIS files as desired by the City. Approach to Park Development | 17A Proposal and Qualifications for Master Park Planning and Design Services for the City of Corcoran Construction Phase The WSB team will participate in the following Contract Administration activities and Site Progress Meetings: The WSB team is also able to provide the following construction services: -Environmental Compliance inspections -Construction Staking: -Prepare staking data for construction limit, erosion control, grading and layout of utilities, trails, buildings, storm sewer, utilities, and other site elements. -Construction Testing Services: -Aggregates and Soils – nuclear density testing, excavation observations, proctor tests. -Concrete testing -Concrete Reinforcement inspections -Special building inspections as needed -Grant Assistance -Conduct Pre-construction Conference and prepare / distribute meeting minutes to all the attendees. -Weekly Site Progress Meetings: Attend site progress meetings during periods of active construction during the project to allow for proactive communication with the Contractor and Owner, which will maximize efficiency during the construction.

City Council Meeting: October 26, 2023 Prepared By: Kevin Mattson Natalie Davis McKeown Topic: Street Management Code and Policy Updates Action Required: Approval 1. Request Per City Council direction, Staff prepared a Snow and Ice Removal Policy that discusses winter maintenance as it relates to streets and trails. As a part of this update, staff identified necessary code amendments to Chapter 71 to provide City staff authority to tow vehicles when they conflict with street maintenance needs and carry out the provisions of the Snow and Ice Removal Policy. Additionally, staff took this as an opportunity to make needed updates to Chapter 70 related to vehicle weight restrictions. 2. Background Planning for the maintenance of trails has been an ongoing discussion with the Parks and Trails Commission and City Council in recent years. While the City has not yet accepted any trails, establishing maintenance policies now is an important component of preparation as trail construction is finalized. Staff created a draft Snow and Ice Removal Policy as a starting point to begin to address the larger picture of maintaining streets and trails during the winter months as this can represent the most challenging time of year for maintenance. Staff looked at model examples from other metro-area cities and used Chanhassen’s policy as a template as it appeared to be the most comprehensive. A draft Snow and Ice Removal Policy was provided to the Park and Trails Commission in July for review. The staff report included the following questions to the Commission: 1.Is there support for the general idea/outline of the proposed Snow and Ice Removal policy? 2.Staff is considering working with Homeowners Associations (HOA) to complete trail maintenance in the areas where trails are disjointed. What are the Commissions thoughts on this approach? 3.Mature communities typically prioritize trail maintenance along major roadways, near schools, near parks, etc. What does the Commission see as the priority trail routes? 4.What is the Commission’s vision for the maintenance of trails? a.Is the expectation to have the pavement of all trails be visible? b.Do we want natural trails that may better accommodate snow activities such as snowshoeing or cross-country skiing? Page 2 of 4 i. If so, what are the trails the Commission believes are best suited for these activities? The following feedback was provided to staff: - There seemed to be general support for the policy. - A desire to prioritize “in-house” maintenance of the trails. - Some openness to coordinating with HOA snow removal companies for trail maintenance where it may make sense. - A desire to utilize alternative salt options, such as grit. - Concern that the use of “highly recommended” as it relates to snow removal around fire hydrants was not strong enough language. The Commission recommended making this a requirement of the homeowner or HOA snow removal contractor. o There was discussion of utilizing fire hydrant coverings, but Public Works Director Mattson explained these are primarily to protect the hydrants from salt rather than aiding with snow or ice removal. - There was some desire to have open space parks to incorporate snow covered/less groomed trails, but they still wanted to make sure these areas were maintained to the standard that they can be used for activities such as cross country skiing. - There was a define desire to completely clear trails along collector roads. - There was a consensus that trails should be completed at the same stage as “street clean-up”. This would currently be included as a part of Priority B. While this feedback is noted by staff, staff are comfortable with the language currently proposed in the policy as a starting point for implementation. Some of the feedback will be incorporated at a later date as trails are accepted, such as defining different maintenance standards where necessary (e.g., trails along collector roads vs. trails within open space parks). 3. Analysis I. Snow and Ice Removal Policy. The attached Snow and Ice Removal Policy establishes the prioritization of streets, trails, and parking lots to be maintained. Priorities will eventually be designated as A, B, or C routes, and this will be depicted on two maps that accompany the policy (a map for streets and parking lots and a map for trails). It should be noted that at this time the streets may only be broken down into A and B, and there are no trails that are currently the City’s responsibility to categorize as part of either route. However, the policy and priorities will be re-evaluated on at least an annual basis, and due to rapid changes within the City, the need to include trails and otherwise utilize a C prioritization category is expected. The policy is expected to grow and adjust as needed. Page 3 of 4 The county roads throughout the City (as well as the small portion of Highway 55 that runs along the Corcoran border in the southwest) are not City streets, and therefore are not subject to the policy. The policy identifies how the prioritization of routes and use of overtime will be handled for City streets under three scenarios of snow fall: snow accumulation of less than 1 inch, 1-2 inches, and more than 2 inches. Additional topics included in the policy are as follows: the maintenance of ice-skating rinks, snow storage within right-of-way, use of salt, when snow removal operations may be suspended, how the City intends to handle property damage claims; expectations for snow deposits within driveways, garbage and recycling containers, parking, fire hydrants, sidewalks, complaints, and placing snow/ice within a public right-of-way. Three draft exhibits are included with the policy. A “Mailbox ABC” exhibit, the Snowplow Routes map for streets, and a trails map. The mailbox exhibit is expected to change as Public Works may want to encourage the use of swing-away mailboxes. The Snow Plow Routes map gives an example of how the non-City streets and City routes will be identified. The Trails map draft does not currently identify any labeled routes since the City has not accepted any trails. The map provides a starting point that shows where known trail easements and existing trails are located. As the maintenance of trails is transitioned to the City, a route designation will be provided for each trail with the expectation that trails will initially be included as a part of Priority B routes. Feedback on the current proposed processes will be helpful. Specifically, staff would like feedback on the following: 1. Overtime decisions. 2. Property damage claims. a. Currently, staff go out to fix property damage, such as mailboxes, when warranted. Other cities have alternative approaches, such as reimbursements up to a maximum amount as a way to prioritize staff time. b. Does the Council want staff to evaluate switching to a reimbursement option? i. Would this apply to only mailboxes or irrigation systems as well? 3. Encouraging the use of swing-away mailboxes as the recommended standard. 4. In the long term, City staff and the Parks and Trails Commission believe we should prioritize in-house maintenance of trails. a. Does the Council support an interim approach where the City reimburses HOAs for trail maintenance after a trail has been accepted in instances where coordination makes sense, such as segmented trails? b. If there is support for this interim plan, City staff would look into how this process would work (contracts, insurance, etc.) to implement at the end of 2024/2025. Page 4 of 4 If the Council is in general agreement with the policy, staff recommends officially adopting the policy at the October 26th meeting or as soon as possible to be able to implement it with the upcoming winter season. II. Chapter 71 – Parking Regulations In conjunction with the Snow and Ice Removal policy, the City Code must be updated to explicitly authorize staff to be able to tow and impound vehicles that violate parking regulations, obstruct traffic, and/or hinder the City’s ability to complete duties such as snow removal, street improvements, maintenance operations, or firefighting. Language to this effect is added to Chapter 71 based on verbiage used in the Chanhassen and Roseville city codes. This can be found in Section 2 of the attached Ordinance. III. Chapter 70 – Traffic Rules The process for weight restrictions outlined in City Code is out of date with the City’s current practices. In an effort to maximize the time of City staff, the update to Chapter 71 was seen as an opportunity to make needed updates to Chapter 70. The proposed changes align with the current practices related to managing weight restrictions, including identifying the Public Works Director as the authority to issue overweight permits when necessary. These changes can be found in Section 1 of the attached Ordinance. 5. Recommendation Staff recommends the City Council approve the following: 1. Ordinance 2023-503 Amending Chapter 70 and 71 Related to Traffic Rules and Parking Regulations. a. Simple majority required. 2. Resolution 2023-89 Approving the Snow and Ice Removal Policy and Findings of Fact for the Amendments to Title VII. a. Simple majority required. 3. Summary Ordinance 2023-504 for Publication a. 4/5 majority required. Attachments: 1. Snow and Ice Removal Policy. 2.

Resolution 2023-89 Approving the Snow and Ice Removal Policy and Findings of Fact for Amendments to Tile VII. 4. Summary Ordinance 2023-504 for publication. Snow & Ice POLICY C I T Y O F C O R C O R A N Agenda Attachment Item: 9c1. 1 1.PURPOSE The city shall provide snow and ice management of public streets, trails, parking lots, and other public facilities in a safe and cost-effective manner to support routine travel and emergency response services. Snow and ice management services shall be performed while prioritizing the safety of employees and the public, adhering to the annual budget, observance of private property, and being cognizant of environmental concerns. 2.POLICY The Public Works Department will maintain system maps showing the publicly maintained streets, trails/walks, and parking lots that show routes and priorities. These routes and priorities shall be reviewed annually to correspond with up to date budgetary, equipment, and personnel resources. The prioritization of streets, trails, and parking lots shall be based on the city function, relative traffic volumes, geometrics, and safety considerations. Priorities are designated as A, B or C as shown on the attached maps, with Priority A routes being treated first. Priority A are routes that consistently see high traffic volumes, connect major sections of the city, and/or provide access to schools, commercial businesses, public buildings, and access for emergency fire, police, and medical services. Second tier Priority B routes consist of lower volume residential streets and neighborhood or off-corridor trails/walks. The last priority, Priority C, includes cul-de-sacs, public facility hardscapes, and non-critical parking lots. Overtime Labor Restrictions are typically defined as 12-hour maximum daily shifts and/or working on weekends or Holidays. The Public Works Director and/or Operations Superintendent shall approve deviation from these labor restrictions. 3.COMMENCEMENT OF OPERATIONS The Public Works Department staff, with the assistance of Public Safety Department staff, will monitor conditions across the City after snow and ice precipitation events to determine the timing and the number of personnel and equipment needed to provide a response that meets the goals of this policy. Typically, the Operations Superintendent will call in staff to start plowing in the early AM hours to stay ahead of the AM rush hour commute. Plowing operations greatly depend on the duration of a snow and ice precipitation event, along with amount, temperature, and form of precipitation. No two storms are the same, so plowing operations shall be adjusted accordingly. 4.ROUTE OPERATIONS The following are the City’s general guidelines when determining the snow and ice management plan: A.With snow accumulations less than 1 inch, only Priority A routes will be plowed and/or treated. In addition to Priority A routes shown on the Snow Plow Map, the City Hall parking lot will be included as a part of Priority A. If a weather system produces, or is forecasting freezing rain or ice, additional areas may be treated per Operations Superintendent discretion. Typically, all work shall be done without the need for overtime labor. B.With snow accumulation between 1 to 2 inches, all routes shall be maintained, beginning with Priority A routes and the City Hall parking lot. The management/plowing plan may be dependent on temperature and time of year as early or late season events may allow for ambient temperature to actively melt much of the accumulation. Streets shall be treated/plowed curb to curb with snow pushed onto the boulevard storage area; however, cul- de-sacs shall only be treated/plowed by one pass along the curb to provide an outlet for the 2 driveways, with snow storage in the middle of the cul-de-sac. Overtime labor restrictions shall be utilized for Priority B routes. C.With snow accumulation of more than 2 inches, depending on the rate of accumulation and other weather factors, Priority A streets and the City Hall parking lot may be treated/plowed repeatedly during the duration of the storm to keep travel lanes open. Cul-de-sacs will only be treated/plowed with one pass along the curb to provide an outlet for driveways. Once the snowfall has ceased, a complete curb-to-curb service will start wherein all streets, trails, and parking lots are treated/plowed starting with Priority A. In these types of events after the snow has stopped it may take more than 24 hours to clear Priority A and B routes. Overtime Labor Restrictions shall be utilized for Priority B routes only. D.Currently, the City does not have enough accepted trails to support a winter maintenance program. Staff anticipates implementation of winter trail maintenance as a part of Priority B routes at the end of 2024/2025. 5. ICE SKATING RINKS Clearing rinks from a snow event will not begin until after the completion of Priority B duties and will not be subject to Overtime Labor Restrictions. Daily sweeping and flooding of rinks, other than Sundays and Holidays, shall be performed while not exceeding 12-hour labor shifts. More information concerning Ice Skating Rinks can be found on the City’s webpage at this location: Ice Rinks and Warming House - City of Corcoran (corcoranmn.gov) 6.SNOW STORAGE Typical snow and ice control efforts require the use of City-owned right-of-way and easements for storage of plowed snow. Depending upon the volume of snow, available storage within right-of-way can become limited and/or create sight obstacles. Since it is infeasible to remove snow from all boulevards and intersection corners, the Operations Superintendent may direct operations to “wing plow” snowbanks along the right-of-way. This “wing plow” operation results in snow being pushed back further onto the right-of-way area and thus creates more snow storage in the boulevard for the next plowing event. Where space does not allow for a “wing plow” operation, snow will be removed as needed and hauled to available city property for storage. Timing of such hauling will be at the discretion of the Operations Superintendent. 7.USE OF SALT The City shall be conscientious about the detrimental effects of salt on the environment and will therefore be diligent in its use. The City shall strategically utilize either straight salt or a treated combination to calibrate the application to the lowest effective amount per lane mile. The goal of this strategy is to provide sufficient traction for vehicles but is not intended to provide a completely bare/dry pavement. Application of salt is generally limited to Priority A routes and other steep grades where a greater need for vehicular traction is warranted. The City shall not be held responsible for damage to private property caused by the use of salt, and therefore will not make repairs or compensate property owners for salt damage to areas in the public right-of-way. 8.SUSPENSION OF OPERATIONS Generally, operations shall continue until applicable route priorities are passable. Widening and clean- up operations may continue immediately or on the following working day depending upon conditions 3 and circumstances. Safety of the staff and public is of primary importance, and therefore operations may be terminated by the Superintendent or Director to allow personnel adequate time for rest or in response to unsafe conditions. Any suspension of operations shall be weighed against the need to provide access for emergency fire, police, and medical services during a major snow or ice storm. 9.PROPERTY DAMAGE Snow and ice control operations can cause property damage even under the best of circumstances and care on the part of the operators. The primary area of potential damage typically relates to private improvements made within public right-of-way. A.Mailboxes – Mailboxes shall be constructed sturdily enough to withstand snow rolling off a plow or wing. While the installation of mailboxes in the public right-of-way is permitted, the mailbox owner assumes all risk of damage except when a mailbox is damaged through direct contact by a plow blade, wing, or other piece of snow removal equipment. If the City determines a plow hit the mailbox, the City will replace the mailbox and post with a standard swing-away mailbox. All replacement mailboxes and posts, whether installed by the City or property owner must be installed per the City’s standard detail as shown on the [Mailbox ABC’s] exhibit. Plow operators make every effort to plow as close to the curb line as possible to provide mail carriers access to mailboxes. However, it is not possible to align the plow perfectly with the curb while attempting to minimize damage to mailboxes from indirect contact given the size of equipment, visibility, and amount of snow pushed into the boulevard. Thus, the final cleaning adjacent to mailboxes is the responsibility of each resident and subject to the delivery requirements of USPS and other carriers. B.Landscaping – The property owner assumes all risk of damage to landscaping, including nursery and inanimate materials that are installed or encroach into the public right-of-way. The exception are lawns that are scraped or gouged by snow removal equipment. Under this scenario, the area will be repaired by top dressing with topsoil and seeding during the following growing season. At the discretion of the Operations Superintendent, the City may perform limited ditch sweeping of material as time and resources allow. Property owners are required to water the areas that are repaired during the establishment period. C.Irrigation systems – The City will assume no responsibility for irrigation sprinkler heads. D.Other Private installations - The City will assume no responsibly for exterior lighting systems, underground electronic dog fences, or any other non-permitted private property installed in the public right-of-way. E.Timeframe for claims - The City will assume no responsibility for property damage if a claim is not received by the City by May 1 of the year following the winter season when damage occurred. 10.DRIVEWAYS The City recognizes that one of the most frequent and irritable problems for homeowners resulting from plowing snow off public streets and trails, is snow deposited in driveways. The operators make every attempt to minimize the amount of snow deposited in driveways; however, due to the inherent design of the plow equipment, the amount can still be significant. Due to established priorities and staffing levels, City personnel do not provide driveway plowing. Exceptions are at the discretion of the Superintendent if snow accumulation affects emergency services or situations. 11.GARBAGE/RECYCLING CONTAINERS 4 The container(s) should be set back 3 feet behind the curb line and not placed in the street. Containers will not be repaired or replaced by the City if damaged during snow removal operations. 12.PARKING Per City Code Chapter 71.01, on-street parking is prohibited between November 1 and April 1 between the hours of 1:00 AM and 7:00 AM, and also prohibited when there is 2 inches or more of snow on a street until the street has been plowed curb to curb. Representatives of the Corcoran Public Safety Department shall have the authority to impound vehicles in violation of this section. 13. CLEARING AROUND FIRE HYDRANTS Property owners or occupants are highly encouraged to keep fire hydrants clear of snow to assist the fire department with emergency response. It is not necessary to clear all the way to the edge of the street, but it is important to shovel approximately 3 to 4 feet around the hydrant down to the area where the fire hoses are connected. 14.SNOW AND ICE REMOVAL FROM SIDEWALKS Per City Code Chapter 82.04, Subd. 2(A), snow and ice removal from public concrete sidewalks abutting private property is the responsibility of the property owners or occupants (including Homeowners Associations or other shared maintenance entities). Removal of snow and ice from such concrete sidewalks shall be completed within 24-hours after the snow and ice has been deposited. Unless a sidewalk is specifically indicated as part of a route on the City’s trail map, the responsibility is assumed to be that of the Homeowners Association or property owner. 15.COMPLAINTS/INQUIRIES Complaints regarding snow and ice control operations, including damage claims, shall be made to the Public Works Department via phone 8:00AM – 4PM by calling (763) 420-2652 or via email at pw@corcoranmn.gov. Complaints involving access to property or problems requiring immediate attention shall be handled on a priority basis. Response time should not exceed forty-eight hours (2 business days) from any complaint. It shall be understood that the complaint responses are to ensure that the provision of this policy has been fulfilled and that all residents of the city have been treated uniformly. 16. PLACING SNOW OR ICE IN A PUBLIC RIGHT-OF-WAY Minnesota Statue 160.27 prohibits plowing, shoveling, blowing or placing snow from private property onto public streets. Chapter 82.304, Subd. 2(D) of the City Code also prohibits depositing or storing snow or ice within the public right-of-way. The act of placing snow onto a public street may subject a person or company to a civil liability if a street hazard such as a slippery area, frozen rut, or bump occurs and causes a traffic accident. The civil liability may extend to both the property owner and the person or company who actually placed the snow on the street. 5 Mailbox ABC’s Helpful hints to protect your mailbox from the snowplow.

Cafeteria Plan The benefits program lets you design a benefits package that fits your specific needs and goals in a “cafeteria design”.

If you have questions on any of the benefits described in this booklet, contact a benefits team member. Medical Health Insurance The City offers two medical plan options with Health Partners to our employees. The plans have two different coverage levels providing single and family coverage for a wide range of hospital and medical services and supplies. Medical insurance coverage is required through the City’s Health Partners plan, a spouse’s plan, Medicare or another health insurance plan. Employees may waive medical coverage if they are on a spouse’s health plan, Medicare or another health plan. Employees who choose to waive this coverage must provide proof of coverage. Only employees who are on a spouse’s health plan are eligible for an opt out medical reimbursement. Health Savings Account (HSA) As part of our medical benefit options, the City of Corcoran offers a Health Savings Account (HSA) for those employees who choose the high deductible (HDHP) Plan offered with an HSA option. The maximum HSA contribution is $3,850.00 4,150.00 for single and $7,750.00 8,300.00 for family. Employees 55 or older can make an additional “catch-up” contribution of $1,000 towards their HSA. Employees select the amount they would like to contribute to their HSA. Individual accounts are set up at Optum and the amount deposited will be deducted pre-tax from the employee’s paycheck each pay period and deposited into the account. When funds in the HSA are used for medical tax qualified expenses, the funds are tax- free. Each employee will receive a debit card to use for paying for medical expenses or for reimbursing themselves from their account. Money in the HSA not used in any given year will rollover into the next year’s balance or may be used for eligible expenses after termination from employment or retirement. If you have switched from a previous HRA plan to an HSA plan, those funds are available on a limited dental and vision basis. Formatted: Font color: Auto Formatted: Font color: Auto Page | 7 City Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) Contribution The City will contribute $115.38 per pay period towards employees’ HSA for those employees taking health insurance through the City’s Health Partners plan. Employees opting out of health care will receive a City Contribution of $350.00 into a FSA account. Employees can submit receipts to the benefits team members for reimbursement of qualifying medical expenses or dependent care expenses. These FSA funds must be used within a calendar year or these may be forfeited and must be limited to certain types of expenses if you or a spouse has access to an HSA. For additional information on either a HSA or FSA, see those sections in this booklet or speak to a benefits team member. Dental Dental insurance is offered through Met Life. It offers a way for you and your family to maintain a program of regular dental checkups, preventive care and repair. There are certain waiting periods on benefits you may want to be aware of. Life Insurance Basic Life and Accidental Death and Dismemberment Insurance The City pays for $50,000 worth of personal group term life insurance for each employee, including accidental death and dismemberment insurance. Supplemental Life Employees can purchase supplemental life insurance above basic life insurance, for themselves, their spouse or their children. Disability Insurance Employees will receive a stipend to purchase short-term and long-term disability coverage and will be required to maintain coverage. By the employee paying for the benefit, the benefit will not be taxed upon use rather than the benefit being taxed. Short-Term Disability Your Short-Term Disability (STD) policy is a City provided benefit offered through a selected insurance carrier. Employees qualify for short term disability when they are not able to perform their job duties because of the employee’s personal illness or disability. While employees may qualify for other types of leaves, employees do not qualify for short-term disability benefits based upon the illness or disability of another family member. After a designated waiting period per the contracted insurance provider’s guidelines, the insurance carrier will pay employee’s pre-disability salary at 60% percent and the employer will pay the remaining total based on years of service at the following rates: Commented [MU1]: Need to add if benefits are calculated based on salary beginning of the year or salary budgeted for the year. New employees are based on hourly earning x 2080 for the year. Commented [MU2R1]: Need to also state that the employee will not be paid out of the bank and then refunded bank after STD check received - this make it hard on payroll purposes. Formatted: Font: Not Italic Page | 8 • 0-6 years of service: 70% • 7 + years of service: 100% •Any employees represented by a labor agreement hired after January 1, 2016 will receive employee’s pre-disability salary up to a maximum of 60% provided by a short-term disability insurance provider. •Any employees not represented by a labor agreement hired after January 1, 2017 will receive employee’s pre-disability salary up to a maximum of 60% provided by a short-term disability insurance provider. Employees may receive short-term disability payments of up to 90 consecutive calendar days per year, after which long-term disability coverage may be utilized. PTO may be used to bridge the gap from short-term disability. For employees who worked at the City before 2007, they may use their Extended Leave Bank to bridge the gap to short- term disability. See the employee handbook for more information. Long-Term Disability Your Long-Term Disability (LTD) policy is a City provided benefit offered through a selected insurance carrier. Eligible employees are covered with a benefit equal to 60% of monthly pay subject to a maximum paid by the insurance carrier. PTO or an Extended Leave Bank can used to bridge the gap on long term disability. It is the employee’s responsibility to communicate with the benefits team and their department supervisor weekly to inform them of their health/return to work status during their disability. An employee handbook can be obtained from the benefits team. Supplemental Health Benefits Supplement Health Benefits are voluntary insurance that the employer will offer in 2024. The City offers accident, critical illness and hospital insurance. It offers a way for employees to bridge the gap with High Deductible Health plans. Paid Time Off (PTO) Less than full-time status or leaves of absence can affect total days available. Employees in regular part-time positions, generally scheduled to work 30 or more hours Service Increment Total PTO Days/year Total PTO hours/per pay period 0 - .9 years 15 4.7 1 - 4.9 years 20 6.2 5 - 9.9 years 25 7.7 10 - 14.9 years 30 9.3 15 – 19.9 years 35 10.8 20 + * 40 12.4 *Applies only to employees hired prior to December 1, 2011 Formatted: Not Highlight Page | 9 per week, shall earn paid time off based on their years of service on a pro-rated basis. Every 173.33 hours worked is equal to a “month”. Temporary and seasonal employees are not eligible for PTO. PTO may be used in one (1) hour increments for non-exempt employees. PTO should be scheduled with as much advance notice as possible to assist in scheduling workflow. Exempt employees should refer to the employee handbook for PTO usage. At the end of each calendar year, you may roll over up to one time your annual PTO allocation into your PTO bank. Any PTO time over one year’s accrual will be forfeited. For non-union employees when you leave the City upon termination or retirement, an employee must contribute 50% of their PTO severance into their Post-Retirement Health Care Savings Plan. Union employees contribution is per the current labor agreement. For more information see the employee handbook. Public Employees Retirement Association (PERA) The City and employees are both required to participate in a pension program. State law sets the required amount of the contribution. For more information, see the Additional Information section for links to the PERA website. MSRS Post Retirement Health Savings Minnesota State Retirement System (MSRS) administers the Post-Retirement Health Care Savings Plan. Dollar amounts per the employee handbook or current labor agreement are set aside tax-free both going into and when taken out of your account. Money set aside in this account is used to pay for medical expenses, health insurance, and other premiums after your termination from state employment. For more information view the Additional Information section for links to the MSRS website. Flexible Spending Accounts (FSAs) Two Flexible Spending Accounts offer participating employees a convenient way to use pre-tax dollars to pay for non-covered health care and dependent care expenses: •Health Care Expense Reimbursement Account--Under our Medical Plan, you pay deductible and co-insurance costs out of your own pocket. You also pay the full cost of other items that are not covered by the Plan. By participating in this expense reimbursement account, you can pay up to $ 3,050 of these expenses with pre-tax dollars. Health Care Expense Reimbursement Accounts must be limited to vision and dental expenses if you or your spouse have participation in an HSA. Contact a benefits team member for more information or questions. For 20234: Eligible 20234 Health Care FSA expenses may be incurred between Jan. 1 – Dec. 31, 20234. You have until March 31, 20245, to submit your claims for reimbursement. Any funds Page | 10 remaining in your account after March 31, 20245, will be forfeited, so it is important to estimate your expenses carefully. •Dependent Care Expense Reimbursement Account--If you must pay for the care of a dependent child or adult care. Eligible employees who enroll in the expense reimbursement account can also cover up to $5,000 of such expenses per Plan year. The dependent care account reimburses dependent day care expenses necessary while you (and your spouse, if you're married) are attending school on a full-time basis or working. Typically, these would be day care expenses for children, but you can also use this account to reimburse day care for other dependents, such as spouses, parents, or grandparents, who cannot care for themselves. Your dependent must live in your home at least eight hours a day. Allowable expenses include those for care provided in your home, a sitter's home, or a day care facility. Allowable expenses must include proof of payment for the services. Expenses for certified all- day kindergarten programs are not eligible. For 20234: Eligible 20234 dependent care FSA expenses may be incurred between Jan. 1 – Dec. 31, 20234. You have until March 31, 20245, to submit your claims for reimbursement. Any funds remaining in your account after March 31, 20245, will be forfeited, so it is important to estimate your expenses carefully. The above two accounts do not change the amount or shape of your current health care benefits. They are a means of budgeting and paying for these expenses in a more economical manner. Deferred Compensation and ROTH Contributions The Minnesota Deferred Compensation Plan (MNDCP) and ROTH is open to all Minnesota public employees. This program allows an employee to voluntarily set aside a portion of their income and accumulate it on a pre-tax basis, after tax basis or both. For more information, see the Additional Information section for links to the MSRS website. Additional Information Cash Benefits After you have selected your benefits, you may still have part of your monthly employer contribution left over. Any unspent monthly employer contributions will be paid to you as taxable cash compensation. If you are waiving “medical insurance” because you are covered under a spouse’s health insurance plan, the City’s “opt out” contribution for your cafeteria plan will be distributed amongst any of the other cafeteria benefits if you choose. If no elections, the entire amount will be paid out to you as taxable income each month. If you participate in another plan or Medicare you are not eligible for the “opt out” contribution.

Council Meeting: October 26, 2023 Prepared By: Mike Pritchard Topic: Conference Room Communications Audio/Video System Upgrade Action Required: Approval Summary The City currently has two conference rooms, one large room that accommodates 12-14 people and one small room which accommodates 6. Staff is requesting to update these spaces with technology for audio/video systems to allow more use opportunities and options, including remote meetings. Each system would include a Ben-Q receiver unit and two transmitters (the same units utilized in the Council Chambers and E.O.C./Police Training Room), a wall-mounted TV/monitor, webcam, tabletop microphone, and a new electrical outlet in the small conference room. The large conference room is already equipped with a 65” wall-mounted TV/monitor and tabletop speakerphone. To continue workflow and respond as necessary should a pandemic re -emerge, or a new emergency arise, this project is consistent with the eligibility requirements to access funding of the America Rescue Plan Act (ARPA). Eligible funds could be accessed for the implementation and set up costs of a communications audio/video system in the two conference rooms at City Hall. Financial/Budget The estimated cost for the project is approximately $3,700 and would be funded through ARPA. Recommendations Staff recommends proceeding with the implementation and setup of a communications audio/video system in the conference rooms of City Hall. Council Action 1. Authorize staff to proceed with the implementation of a communications audio/video system in the conference rooms. 2. Decline implementation of a communications audio/video system for the conference rooms. 3. Request staff to review other communications audio/video system options for the conference rooms.
