[Music] good evening and Welcome to our june3rd city council meeting if you join me for a moment of silence and the Pledge of Allegiance [Music] to the flag of the United States of America okay roll call please Michelle V here Luke Kier here John burmel here Dan Walter here Joshua Lee here all right we'll now move on to Citizens comments is's an opportunity for anybody wants to share something with the city council you have up to three minutes if it's an item that's on the agenda we typically will set aside time for comment as [Music] well name and address for the record please 9025 to 210th Street West Lakeville um I've lived in Lakeville all my life uh 75 years I've lived in the same house for over 70 years my father bought the place the Family Farm 1931 bought it from his uncle pmer my uncle his brother he was actually mayor of Lakeville at one time Palmer Hammer um what I want to get at is the the website is very good website very easy to get around came across the parks and trails map and Ledger 111 Maps or parks and trails in Lakeville very good first one was antlers Park uh came across and I see uh uh the Lakeville uh spent what uh 11 have it here in my notes .7 million in improvements in Antlers Park and now we have the grand uh Prairie Park which is being developed another 19,000 19 million uh 500,000 $30 million virtually for the two parks getting to my point the city of Lakeville uh I've called the Forester first on the ash tree problem that the city of Lakeville has uh the city I first I called them and asked them if the city had any funds available to help residents cut the trees down haul them away do whatever he said no so I thought about it for a while called them back and I told him I was going to come to the city council and ask the city council if they had any suggestions to help the residents of Lakeville with the asht trees he thought it was a good idea I asked him to come back me up and he for some reason didn't want to come back me up on the on the agree so I did call the county county has no funds available to help the citizens of Lakeville uh I ride my bicycle around the town every morning and just the the number of trees is astonished how how many dead ash trees we have so what I'm here for is ask the city for a disposal site I've got 22 dead ash trees you don't have to come out and mark them I've already contacted a person to take him down but it's this disposal I mean there's over a thousand trees in the city of Lakeville and if the city could come up with a disposal site to take these trees to is what I'm asking I'm not asking for funds I'm not asking for help just a disposal site it would be more I mean that's that's a huge part of the cost of taking these ash trees down is the where to put them MH so that's my my seal to the city council uh Mr Hammer thank you for coming a couple things we do have a program with a a vendor to help on some removal and also treatment so if you were wanting to treat some we can talk to you a little bit about that too late yeah um and you know you remarked about some of the trees we do have a plan and especially in our parks to kind of tackle a lot of that but I don't know if we've had discussions about disposal but we'll talk about that and get back to you because I think that's a good idea I don't know what the right answer is but and you know it's not uh and I I'm under the understanding once the city marks a tree you have to take it down within 90 days I believe it is so I mean it's it's a pretty urgent request for a disposal site for these asht trees yeah and I'm not I'm speaking for everybody in Lakeville I mean I drive the the streets of Lakeville and it's horrendous would you be willing to leave your contact information with our clerk so we can follow up sure just I don't know if you have paper I can give you this piece of paper or whatever works thank you any other citizen comments okay um moving on to oh sorry yep hello my name is Andrew Bame I live at 20640 II Avenue um been a resident of Lakeville for 35 years and uh thought it was uh interesting that I've driven by a water treatment facility and never had any interest of what actually happened there so I decided to take a tour it's very fascinating place and um one of the things that uh stuck out to me was uh some of the chemicals that they add to the water and one of them being fluoride and um there's kind of a big movement across the United States now about removing fluoride from water because it's linked to all sorts of you know diseases couple of them being skeletal fos fosis and dental fosis which is like a like an osteoporosis of your skeleton um dementia cancer and uh these are studies done by uh uh National Center for biotechnology information. goov and um and one of the the thing the unique things about fluoride is it is it does take a fairly expensive filter to remove it from your water so you know it's a you know disadvantage for people that are you know lower income and you know just people that don't really have the knowledge about this so um and uh another another thing is that um you're it's a has a direct proportion a direct correlation to how much water you drink so if you drink more water you're ingesting more fluoride um studies suggest that there may be a a a slight benefit to just like a topical treatment to being in your like toothpaste but they say ingesting it there's no there's no benefit the risk far aways the benefit um we in Lakeville florid at our water at uh 0 point or 7 milliliters per liter um so and that's kind of at the um upper end some some counties do some cities do one liter or 1 milliliter per liter so I was just uh really my my goal is just to um you know put it out there that you should just remove it you know it's what it amounts to is a kind of a medical treatment that you know 70,000 people haven't consented to um so I just really that that is my goal just to have it removed if people want to add it to their own water I think it makes more sense that you know they have the ability to do that and uh and uh people that don't want it don't have to ingest it is there is there any hope of that happening I have to admit that this is not an issue that I'm totally familiar with so again if you would just leave contact information I would love to look into it and maybe connect with you after have more conversation for sure aren't we regulated to put some in there are there are state requirements mayor council and we can provide those to you okay as well as Mr bam okay yeah so be happy to connect with you after this sure all right great what I'm saying is you might have to contact your legislators too okay great where do you uh yeah right there thank you uh any other comments okay uh moving on to uh item number four additional agenda information Mr Miller nothing tonight May okay uh uh moving on to our presentations and we'll turn it over to uh Mr hennon for his final parks and recreational quarterly report to the city council I thought I'd do a 10year report if that's okay with you this well I thought you going do 35 this is the park recreation C report for March April and May um starting off with Administration um the parks recreation natural resources committee discussed the renaming of aen Le Community Park to be consistent with the uh Park naming policy and five recommendations were presented to the mayor and city council and after the council rated them the um the new name of the park is called Grand Prairie Park which we used to be having Lee which was tied to the development so we wanted to change that name and again Grand Prairie Park is the is the new name of the community park off of 185th in Cedar also um executed a number of bid packages as you know um for the project Rees is doing the dirt work a company called apx is doing the construction of the buildings and um we have commenced a construction it's been a little wet the last couple weeks so it's not as fast as we'd hop but um it'll dry out and we'll keep moving also executed some agreements for the the splash pad and playground and on the lower right you can see the a rendering of the the grand stand from looking from the parking lot the baseball complex on March or excuse me May 22nd we had the official um Grand Opening and ribbon cutting for Antlers Park about

year after 35 years of service to the city and I just can't thank you enough on behalf of the community for the really the Legacy that you built in our Park system so I hope you feel that and the Gratitude from residents when we had the last couple events so just want to extend my thanks to you for years of service and um you know I we say this a lot but when people say why they pick Lakeville it's either schools or the parks and your your legacy certainly helps cement that for us so thank you and I don't know if any of my colleagues wanted to share anything else okay I'll reserve my time for Friday he said no program no thank you I've been very fortunate to work here over 35 years and I've been mentioned the last couple weeks the last nine years have been the most fulfilling and enjoyable to be your park and rec director and um thank you very much for the opportunity Justin nine years ago and uh it's just been the best so I can I can't I don't have any complaints great co-workers and a great community so thank you thanks John appreciate it your [Applause] retirement all right um I'll now move on to the annual Arenas report and Bud budget presentation I'll turn over to our Arena's manager Joe burquest hello and thank you for having me once again it's my second one since taking the realm so hopefully I'm a little more calm this year I was a little nervous last year but um yes I'm here to give the annual report and our budget presentation you all received a copy of the budget in the consent agenda um a lot of things happening and changing so I'd like to start off for the general Public's sake is many people don't understand the structure of Lakeville Arenas and uh for their information we were formed when hassi Arena was uh built and we are a joint Powers agreement between the city and the school district we have two members on our board from the city Miss folk and Mr J U Mr Miller we also have uh two school board members and a member at large um I report to them um the arena contribute we are challenged to operate and meet our budget our operating budget with Revenue taken into the facility and to my understanding that's never been an issue since the history of Lakeville Arena's was established so I'm proud to continue that and that is a a goal of mine always to uh it's actually one of the reasons I accepted the job here is I love the Enterprise type operation um because I do come from a public back or a private background as well so the comination I love um we contribute approximately $75,000 towards annual Debt Service and $140,000 to our capital reserve fund the city owns the Arenas uh pays 50% of The Debt Service on Hy 50% of The Debt Service on the new energy improvements project and are contributing 5.5 million towards the construction of the new Pavilion rink at hassi Arena made possible by the referendum we also uh our other partner is am I missing there we go um school district has a commitment to purchase 740 hours per year they pay approximately 50% of the debt or they do pay 50% of the debt on hii as well as 50% of the debt on uh the energy improvements project in 2021 lakevi Hockey Association is another uh partnership that we are very close with and we they are under an agreement with us to provide $85,000 a year towards the debt service on the parking lot and the new Pavilion rank which is in their contribution to the Pilan rank was like 1.4 1.5 somewhere in the you know um our other partner was Heritage Figure Skating club who also little smaller because of their use but uh they're contributing $111,000 a year and an important part partner for us ice usage over 2023 has continued to go up um as far as the usage 3% goes to our learn Escape program I'll talk a little bit later about Tanya Patterson who does an amazing job and we keep hitting new records every year she's been here from the start I percent is goes to the Heritage Figure Skating club 12% gets used by the high schools I'm proud of this 25% of our ice is now being utilized by the public um we started a lot of new public programs over the last two years that provides ice for them we had a lot of ice just sitting dead that we created a membership program and other things that they get to use it if it's not being used by paid customers so um they come in and pay $10 or they purchase the membership and then our largest uh single user is Lakeville Hockey Association they're at 27% and all other users um basically hockey groups summer spring hockey that sort of thing are up to 28% that used to be quite a bit lower but we're growing that and you will see that high get larger and larger over the next several years uh this is just a little chart on our ice rentals on where we're trending um we're already 20123 we leveled off because of construction but we continue to jump and move total hours you can see at the bottom and already this year we're trending to be at 5,500 hours this year once the Pavilion rinks open for a full year that'll add some hours but the the yearr round expansion because of the ice planet hassi now we have three rinks going here round and it's growing faster than I expected it to so our light escape program as far as programming goes is the one that I mentioned has been around for many many years uh Tanya started it when hassi opened and we are the number four this year I think in the state um as far as participants and registrations this we're very successful everybody knows of our program um we have very high quality but this year we T last in 23 we topped 1,000 the 1,000 Mark for the first time and you can see it just continues to grow which right with Lakeville makes sense but the this program is essential for the future programs of Youth Hockey and so forth and that's where we really focus a lot of our time on programming is in that ages 4 to 10 or 4 to n um because they kind of always get left behind or they just don't get the once everybody gets a squirt or above they're they're gone they're like this is more fun but the little guys are are are are we love them so they're a lot of fun so we've expanded quite a bit of programs to have a lot more expanding next year um our ice Club of memberships I mentioned earlier we started it in 22 23 we up to 145 our learn to skate ESP Spire started last fall that's a new program under the learn to skate which transitions um students from learn to skate that aren't quite ready to go to higher competitive figure figure skating level and it gives group lessons to them rather than individual and having to pay for a coach individually so it's much more affordable for a lot of members and we run that through our learn escap program and we expect that to R ramp up quite significantly our might fall power skating um we do that now for two years in the fall that might drop this year because our spring League took off and we planned to do a spring League this fall which was super popular um I think I had almost every might and Lakefield signed up for Dar here quite a few that was very popular so um that's our programs little bit on the Pavilion rink uh the new ice plant was completed and started up on April 1st which I know we originally had a goal of January 1 and we thought it was because of the concrete problems we had um that it wouldn't open but it actually would not have opened anyhow and we were made aware of that when we started the project that it was an overseas shipment so um as far as the perimeter slab I actually have to get together with Andrea this week um and finalize a fiveyear extended warranty that we agreed to with the contractor so we believe we are well covered there our engineers and everybody else will think we're we're good if we get that extended warranty so that has been resolved um construction resumed this spring and the new hockey floor was just poured last before Memorial Day um which means we'll be finishing up sidewalks and base um soon and then the boards the concrete has the B here for 30 days so that'll be installed here in July um then we do have some credits coming we cut out a whole bunch of stuff because originally the Fire Marshall wanted a sprinkler system but we cut out bleachers and everything we possibly could so we are getting credits back because that was taken out um which we appreciate and we'll be able to do something of them amenities once we figure out exactly where we come in we'll we'll get working on them yet this year we plan to open around Thanksgiving and host a grand opening on hockey day Lakefield and our overall budget since we started is estimated right now we're about half a million below what we started with and most of that is contingency funds that we did not need to un there was some that we did use um so that's kind of where the Pavilion rink is at right now a little a bit about our management I mentioned uh I first year I haven't had to drive as Zamboni very often which has been nice since the labor shortages and um I've had an operations manager for a full year now so that's been very good Tanya is up there she's our lar skate she's been my well she was my right hand but she's part-time and she since day one with Co me and her were we kept things moving it was kind of the two of us and so I can't say enough good things spotter um our goals are simple overall is to provide the highest quality rental at the lowest possible rates C safe facilities modern um highly rated programs such as our figure skating program or our learn to skate program and we plan and all the new ones that planned come on over the next year we're adding tournaments next year now with the new sheets of ice we're adding a lot of new Revenue um through that um and provide fun events and activities just in general so we hope to be put in a light show at hosi so our you know it's a little more fun for our uh open open skates and things like that um and we want to provide the highest level customer service of any arena in the state um provide a fun and challenging place for our employees and we've been doing a really good job since the labor shortage now that we seem to be well staffed um and just overall maximize the revenue for you know to minimize return the effect on taxpayers our business model is like I mentioned earlier it's a Enterprise fund type of scenario like the liquor stores a little different um but we do cover all of our operating expenses and most Arenas have to nowadays not all of them but the old model of the Ice Arena was um very typical they Reed almost entirely on Ice rentals um generated almost all the revenue in a four to five month period 100 minutes the pure as everybody is to keep your rates low Force the lower offseason rates to un ridiculously low prices when it's more expensive to operate because the big tournament operators and so forth you know they push they they put pit us all against one another and that leads to limited staff usually only a couple full-time employees which is difficult to properly maintain equipment and and and everything um our approach is a little different because we have so much room for Revenue in my belief and that's kind of the background I came by through up at Breezy Point was creating a destination um and that's what I want to do here at Lakeville so we maximize our peak season ice we've done that through 10 minary surfaces you've seen the Ice hours have gone up significantly our offseason ice you will see in the next couple years especially with tournaments and so forth grow um and creating new programs and activities that don't interfere or competing against our customers um which I said is that might age that that fun little age where they can't necessarily skate all that well but they go out there and have a blast and you know the real hockey coaches are like oh thanks Joe for taking that over I've heard so it's good and it it's a feeder program for our customers and it helps them out um expanding our traditional products from concession stands to Pro Shop sales and all that sort of thing I mean I think originally concessions were only open here during high school games about 30,000 a year um so take advantage of customers in the building everywhere we can um to use them additional revenues for lower our rental rates which this is the first year we will be doing that we are holding flight level because we are in a trajectory to be able to do that and my goal is to be the lowest in this area versus the most expenses that we we have been the most expensive for several years years um we want to hire full-time staff so our facilities are taken care of better our customers are service better um additional revenues to improve the facilities and user amenities um and absorb all the costs that we've received over these couple last couple years from inflation and so forth so on our journey right now our Revenue goals in progress so far maximizing ice rentals 2023 we're up 58,000 over the previous year simply because we we held steady um but since 2021 we started this we're up 182,000 in our all-time highs um expanding uh programs we're up 32,000 over 22 $130,000 since we started two years ago um expand the additional this is our biggest impact so far is our concession stand and so forth and overall we've were're up 194 over 22 and almost half a million since 21 uh the results and impacts as I said we're not we're not increasing rates this year and we hope to continue that for some time if we can we're adding a full-time driver a programs manager to run our tournaments and so forth that we're going to be running what you need um doing all we're always doing projects we want that facility people when we they come in we want them eventually we want to have the premier facility in the Twin Cities and we want it to be a destination um I'm sure you saw those of you driven by ases I was out there for 4 days and the getting rid of the haunted forest everybody called it uh so it's it's all cleaned up and landscaped um we've recouped nearly 16 the entire covid loss now to date we have like 15,000 left to go we've taken over the 64,000 Debt Service for the uh new 2021 uh bonds we we're contributing towards them um contributed approximately 100,000 for our share of the financial payroll systems over these last this last year and this year and again we absorbed all the extra inflationary and labor market adjustments that wouldn't have been able to without the additional revenues we receive so this is just a quick budget brief you've got the main one again Revenue this in 23 was up um I want to thank uh the mayor and Justin for the negotiations on the hassi Pavilion or not the H Pavilion the naming rights with Glenn hassi that came at a very good time for us because as you see in here the hash AI Dasher boards last year actually were unexpected but they were in Ruins and we had to replace them so that timing on that could not have been better and we have the new zamon for out the rink coming up this year um and the snow equipment so that kept us whole and now next year we'll be we'll be flat we always budget the estimate budget this year changed significantly from last year has gone up because we're already trending that way um we always budget to balance but we we plan to have more when it's all over and while we've recouped their covid costs now as our revenues have gone up we need to start getting our general fund increase to match a six-year or six-month uh balance so that overall is kind of where the budget you've got the details on that so I'm not going to borrow everybody with it although I really love my budget as the board will probably tell you we spend too much time on the budget so any questions or comments comments Joshua I'm not a skater so I I have some naive questions um how many sheets of ice total do we have huh how many sheets of ice do we have we now have three indoor sheetss and the outdoor sheet which can run from basically November through March so when you're projecting 6,000 hours in 2025 I'm trying to understand what our capacity is uh and I know some of that is based on labor um just hours of operation but I mean what what is that out of 6,000 out of capacity right now we're like summer we're not even open on weekends um so I haven't really run the numbers but it's it's very large we have during the season it's limited um as always there's never enough hours for anybody but overall by utilizing that I year round rather than sit there for three months of the year and closing some of the rinks I anticipate with the tournament business we'll we'll have at least 10 weekends a year booked that accounts for uh approximately probably 15 to $20,000 in ice rentals just over the weekend it'll actually be more with all three rings that's um there's the dry floor that we haven't even budgeted yet because we're not 100% sure what what all is going to happen outside but we're excited about the outdoor activities we can do and that'll be more CommunityWide versus just the hockey people and so forth sure um and all them other sub the programs will grow not only the ice rentals from the tournaments but running the tournament business itself produces a lot more Revenue um so there's there's a lot of capacity capacity in the offseason we' really crunched the in season as much I mean we added probably 500 600 hours just in redoing the way we resurface and that's it's upside but it won't I on the Pavilion ring I will not be surprised that not too far from here someone will be here asking for walls so and that you know the tradition the projection and the way we're going that will be possible based on it'll be year round use versus walls for four months does not make sense you mean walls for the outdoor rink is that what you said I mean that's it's built with footings gotcha so the walls can be tipped up the ultimate goal of LJ when they proposed all this was to get another Force sheet which is very much needed um but it needs to be operated year round not just 3 months I mean the Pavilion rink has an outdoor sheet limited year round we're not going to you know I'll make up some of the losses with that from the indoor but that will grow into a much bigger bigger part of the business thank you well it's exciting to see all the growth the last couple years congratulations thank you all right we'll move on to item number six our consent agenda Mr Miller any items that you want to highlight thank you may and Council it's getting close to panoprog time and items six CDE E and F are all related to pan prog these are either liquor licenses or street

thanks again here City Council Members so this is our annual uh Street um collector Road uh Improvement project that we consider every year uh uh for improvements um this year we have identified three Street segments um and they were identified through our pavement Management program um ipava Avenue U from 185th Street to Indiana Avenue uh Indiana Avenue from iava to do do Boulevard and then 175th Street um from uh junell um Avenue to iav Avenue so a total of uh just over 2 point about a little over two miles with the streets that we'd like to to consider uh for rehab or reconstruction so just a little background on the project we did author um this project did start back in August of last year um at the authorizing of the feasibility report for the project did hold a public hearing um on the project in December bids of the project were were open in April U we did declared uh the cost and set the the public hearing for tonight uh on May 6 council meeting and then tonight we're holding the uh the assessment hearing and award of contract so with that um project is consistent with other projects we've done in the past for um for collector roads so we do have a component of the of this project where we are considering reconstruction or reclaiming the the pavement um and replacing that with new pavement um this is a coste effective way to basically replace the uh payment section um on these collector roads so that that area is on ipava Avenue that's going to be all that pavement is going to be replaced um Street preservation areas are Mill and overlay so that that's the Indiana area and 175th Street in each of these project areas we are looking at replacing some distress uh curban gutter some side walks um and then storm sewer and catch Bas as well um Replacements um as need be also included with the project is is the replacement of some hydrants and some gate bells and some other improvements to our water system and then also sanitary sewer manholes are going to be uh a few have to have to be replaced as well too so they're they're in disrepair um included with this project some pedestrian improvements um one intersection that we're focusing in on is ipava and Indiana Avenue uh we're extending the medians at this intersection to give a better pedestrian Refuge uh for crossing um ipave Avenue and then we're also redu the the width of one 190th Street so you're The Pedestrian is don't have as long of a area to cross that that intersection and then on 175th Street we are eliminating a couple Crossings along U this section of the road but we are enhancing a crossing at Indiana Avenue um we're moving that that Crossing as you can see from the um east side of the intersection to the west side and then we're constructing a con concrete median a raise concrete Medan uh median to help with a pedestrian Refuge U with that area too and that this area is going to all be striped and and uh signed as well um with that we did have like I mentioned we did have a bid opening in early April we did receive four bids and we did have faal bids uh lowest bidder was OMG Midwest at a little over 1.2 million or $ 1.1 million um if you add in all the indirect costs um engineering the soils indust investigation and inspections all those type of things the total project cost comes to $2.6 million and the funding sources are are shown um on this exhibit um and then moving forward the project moves forward uh the here the construction schedule we are planning to start um the the projects in early July and have the projects wrapped up um before um school started with that uh there is some assessments associated with this project namely along iava Avenue uh the Indiana and 175th Street uh sections those are um considered um preservation areas and we do not assess for that but there is one um parcel that has access off of ipav Avenue that is considered as our considered with our assessment policy so considered for assessments along with the street and the storm sewer assessments as well so we are not we don't assess for utilities uh sewer in the water and any Trail improvements as well so the U terms of the assessment are uh interest rate is 3% over 10 years and um first payment is due in 2025 and then this is follows our follows the state statute of 429 um and um as of this meeting uh we have not had any appeals to the assessments and U um appeals for assessments are due at or before a public hearing close of the public Hearing in any uh appeals after written appeals after the um public hearing are are invalid with
