Elk River City Council Mission Statement
Where council and staff work with citizens to develop a sustainable and prosperous community for all
to live, work, and play and to appropriately govern in an ever-changing environment.
Mr. Portner asked for suggestions from the Council and staff for their ideas on updating the mission
statement, noting a change to live, work, and play could be a possibility.
Councilmember Wagner mentioned that updates to the mission statement should be mindful of trends
without being trendy, ensuring social media does not guide decisions, but that the council is listening
and leading based on facts.
Mr. Dunford suggested including the statement "a sustainable community where everyone feels at home
and can connect with their neighbors," pointing to the shared city spaces.
Mr. Femrite emphasized the need to create awareness and foster a sense of collective ownership,
where the residents view public spaces as 'ours.'
Councilmember Calva shared his rewritten mission statement: "An innovative and welcoming
community striving for inclusive engagement and exceptional service to provide connection,
restoration, and the most positive life possible."
The updated mission statement will be finalized at a future meeting.
Mr. Portner reviewed the goals set in 2025.

positive changes to local obligations for road and infrastructure improvements. To help reduce the
Page 7 of 517City Council Minutes Page 4 of 5
June 22, 2026
---------
financial impact on local governments, he has been working with the city and county engineers'
associations to create better standards. He plans to share these new concepts with the council soon.
Finally, he pointed out that Municipal State Aid funding is becoming tighter as more cities qualify for the
program.
The Council recessed at 3:02 p.m. The meeting reconvened at 3:09 p.m.
Chief Kuhnly presented the 2027–2028 supervision proposal and department attrition plan. He
discussed the hiring process and stated he has been deliberate in hiring Community Service Officers
who intend to transition into full-time police officers. To mitigate the operational impacts of six
upcoming retirements and avoid the negative effects of understaffing, he proposed hiring two officers
ahead of schedule, followed by two additional officers in both 2027 and 2028. Additionally, Chief Kuhnly
introduced the Officer in Charge program and outlined a multi-year staffing timeline: hiring two officers
and a fifth night-shift sergeant in 2027; hiring two officers in 2028; and hiring one officer, adding a sixth
sergeant, and pausing the grant-funded Traffic Safety Officer (TSO) position in 2029.
Mr. Carlton presented information on future residential community growth. He stated that growth
potential on the north side of the city depends on the expansion of utilities and the gravel mines. He
also mentioned the need for affordable "middle housing," such as duplexes and multifamily housing.
Additionally, he shared the importance of promoting economic development and supporting a strong
business community to encourage community investment and tourism.
Mayor Dietz asked about adding signs along the highways for businesses to let people know when to
exit. It was explained that there are certain standards, rules, and policies that make the signs eligible.
Mr. Carlton shared a map and images of possible business opportunities in the city, highlighting large
parking lot areas such as Ashley Furniture.
Mr. Femrite shared with the Council that with the amount of infrastructure the city has added with the
Miske Meadows, Bradford Park, Meadowsweet Bend and Oakwater Ridge Developments, the Public
Works Department will need to add staff and machinery to accommodate maintaining the addition of
the streets and trails.
The Council recessed at 5:16 p.m. for dinner. The meeting reconvened at 5:51 p.m.
Brent O’Neil shared the Economic Development outlook and brand recruitment strategies vs. local
businesses.
Councilmember Wagner expressed concerns that national brand-name stores do not contribute to the
community to the same extent as local small businesses. She noted that small businesses frequently
provide local support, such as student sports fundraisers, team sponsorships, and active participation in
the Downtown Elk River Business Association (DERBA).
Councilmember Calva asked if stores such as Sam's Club or Dick's Sporting Goods would be an
opportunity for Elk River. Mr. O'Neil mentioned several redevelopment opportunities like these. The
challenges to recruiting those businesses are where they could be established.
Mr. O'Neil shared several potential properties for large industrial buildings. He stated that the current
Page 8 of 517City Council Minutes Page 5 of 5
June 22, 2026
---------
industrial build sites are limited and would like to engage outside help in locating lots and planning for
what the investment would look like from the Economic Development Authority to make these
properties available.
Mr. Stremcha shared overall budget factors, revenue reductions, expense increase estimates, and
potential revenue sources. Mr. Stremcha showed a breakdown of the Park facilities Framework Plan and
the breakdown and cost of the 6 phases. Mr. Portner and Mr. Stremcha spoke about a second option
for a fire station, to include a fall referendum and including athletic facility improvements to collaborate
with ISD 728.
The Council consensus was not in favor of adding a referendum to the upcoming election. It was
believed that the local sales tax amendment would pay for the fire station, and that is no longer an
option. Staff will give notice to the architect group involved in designing the fire station that the city is
postponing the plan for now.
Mayor Dietz suggested transferring $650,000 from the Building Reserve Fund to the 2027 General Fund
Budget to offset lost revenue from the Liquor Operations Fund and LGA.
Mr. Portner mentioned several notable repairs that will be needed to city buildings in the near future,
which are scheduled to be funded by the Building Reserve Fund.
Council directed staff to inquire regarding the availability of the Nystrom property located at 19232
Proctor Road NW, for future city use.
Councilmember Wagner requested a review of City Council pay, as the rate of pay has not changed
during her tenure.
Due to time constraints, Mr Portner recommended moving the follow-up to the goal-setting portion of
the meeting to a Work Session in July.
3. MOTION TO ADJOURN

signs up to 64 square feet. The signs would be removed after the development was completed. The
applicant is also requesting a large entrance monument of 36 feet long by 4 feet tall surrounded by

the ordinance allows billboards to be 35 feet tall and 400 square feet.
Commissioner Lang asked if the applicant had provided a mock-up of the entrance monument. Mr.
Carlton stated they had not.

Justin Dunford
Action Requested
Adopt, by motion, Ordinance 26-15 amending Section 30-1295, Business Park District, establishing Medical
Facilities, Outpatient, Printing and Publishing, and Repair Services as Permitted Uses.
Direct, by motion, staff to prepare a finding of fact denying the ordinance amendment request to allow
Physical Recreation or Training, Health and Fitness Clubs, Indoor Commercial Dog Kennels, and removing
limitations on Warehouse Space in the Business Park (BP) zoning district.
Background/Discussion
The applicant is seeking an ordinance amendment to allow outpatient medical facilities, physical recreation or
training uses, wholesale, printing and publishing, repair services, and to remove limitations on warehouse
space in the Business Park zoning district.
Over the past 15+ years, the BP ordinance has been amended several times in an effort to respond to
evolving commercial market needs. In some cases, those changes were later reconsidered due to their impact
on the availability and function of industrial land, leading the city to return to the original intent for the
district.
Physical recreation uses are often discouraged in industrial zoning districts because they can create land use
conflicts, safety concerns, and operational limitations for industrial businesses. They also do not generate full-
time employment in the way that other industrial uses generally do.
Recreation users, particularly children and families, may be exposed to increased risks from vehicle conflicts,
noise, fumes, or industrial processes.
The Elk River Vision
A welcoming community with revolutionary and spirited resourcefulness, exceptional service, and community
engagement that encourages and inspires prosperity
Page 143 of 517Industrial districts are designed for commercial vehicles rather than pedestrian-oriented activity. Recreation
uses can introduce increased pedestrian traffic, parking demand, and peak visitation periods that interfere with
industrial circulation patterns.
The Business Park zoning is also intended to preserve areas for manufacturing, processing, and similar
employment-generating activities while limiting warehousing.
Recreational uses are typically considered more compatible with commercial, mixed-use, and institutional
areas.
Planning Commission
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on May 26, 2026. The applicant gave an overview of her
company and the building they have recently purchased in Elk River. She believes the current city code "fights
with users."
The Commission asked what the intent of warehouse limitations was. Staff stated the business park district is
a step between industrial and commercial areas and that the limitation is to encourage job generation with a
higher class of industrial uses, not just warehouse space.
While the Planning Commission was supportive of the request to allow outpatient medical facilities in the BP
district, they did not support allowing physical recreation uses or removing the limit on warehousing space, as
it would impact the city’s limited industrial properties.
The commission made the following recommendations:
1. Approval of the ordinance amendment allowing Outpatient Medical Facilities in the Business Park (BP)
zoning district.
2. Denial of the ordinance amendment allowing Physical Recreation or Training and removing limitations
on Warehouse Space in the Business Park (BP) zoning district.
Since the Commission meeting, the applicant has provided a revised amendment (attached) for the City
Council to consider. It is summarized here:
Permitted uses:
• Amending warehouse spaces to allow up to 75% of the entire building, versus 50% currently – Staff still
has concerns with this, and the Planning Commission did not support the change. Warehouse use is allowed in
other industrial districts.
• Adding wholesale businesses (business-to-business) - Currently listed as an accessory use: ”Retail/wholesale
sales incidental to products manufactured, assembled, or warehoused on the premises may be permitted as an
accessory use provided no more than ten percent of the building is used for retail/wholesale sales.” This use is
allowed in other industrial districts.
• Adding machine shops (staff would consider this light manufacturing, which is permitted).
• Adding printing and publishing (staff have no concern with this request).
• Adding repair services, except for businesses related to passenger vehicles and trucks – for example,
technology repair, equipment repair, shoe repair, seamstress, piano repair, etc. (staff have no concern with this
request).
Page 144 of 517Conditional uses:
• Adding health and fitness clubs
• Adding indoor commercial dog kennel
Staff continues not to be supportive of these proposed CUP uses, as the intent of the BP district is for industrial and
manufacturing uses in nature. The purpose of the Council-approved City Code is to set an orderly priority of uses in
each zoning district. Amending the code for every request is not considered a good business practice.

RE: Business Park Zoning Amendment Request
City of Elk River
Planning and Zoning Department,
Thank you for the opportunity to submit code for consideration by staff for the upcoming code shift in the
City of Elk River. We own property throughout the Twin Cities metropolitan area that fit within the business
park and light industrial designations, specializing in owning buildings that many small businesses call
home. Through owning these buildings for years and working with Cities and our tenants, we have
learned the challenges with these properties, the best businesses / organizations that coexist well without
causing issues, and, very importantly, the business types that are currently successful, contributing to the
City they choose to locate in.
Many of the cities we own property in have more flexible zoning, permitting wider standard and
conditional uses. But, we are actually comfortable with a more moderately adapted perspective, allowing
for a few additions that represent some of the major demand we’ve seen in the broader market. We have
included the business park City Code from the City of Blaine and the City of Eagan, for your review. At the
conclusion of this letter, we included a requested updated business park code for the City of Elk River. We
also put together a spreadsheet highlighting these codes, in comparison, noting the additional use types
we’d like added.
The City of Eagan, Minnesota’s business park district code is relatively restrictive, requiring many
uses to go through a conditional use permit process. Their code is written as:
“BP Business Park District. Purpose. The Business Park BP District is intended to accommodate
development of low intensity office, light industrial and supporting commercial service uses that may be
suitable in relative close proximity to non-industrial development. More intensive industrial uses which
require either outdoor storage or high truck traffic or both are excluded. The performance standards for
this district are intended to establish and maintain high quality site planning, architecture, signage and
landscape design to create an attractive and unified development character.
Permitted uses. Within any BP district no structure or land shall be used except for one or more of the
following uses or uses deemed similar by the council:
Adult establishments.
Financial institutions and banks (without drive-through facilities).
Freestanding satellite dishes, subject to the regulations thereof elsewhere in this chapter.
Office and office buildings.
Office/warehouses and office/showrooms.
Processing, packaging, cleaning, storage, assembling, servicing, repair or testing of materials, goods or
products, when wholly contained within a building and which meet and maintain all applicable standards
established by the state.
Public utility tower mounted antennae, subject to the regulations thereof elsewhere in this chapter.
Public utility uses.
Research laboratories, when wholly contained within a building and which meet and maintain all
applicable standards established by the state.
Technical, vocational and business schools.
Cannabis microbusiness (indoor cultivation only).
Cannabis mezzobusiness (indoor cultivation only).
Page 146 of 517
Business Park Zoning - Request Letter June 8, 2026
Cannabis cultivator (indoor only).
Cannabis manufacturer.
Cannabis wholesaler.
Cannabis testing facility.
Cannabis event organizer (office use only).
Medical cannabis combination business (indoor cultivation only).
Conditional uses. Within any BP district no structure or land shall be used except for the following uses
or uses deemed similar by the council and only by a conditional use permit:
Coffee kiosks, subject to the regulations thereof elsewhere in this chapter.
Daycare facilities.
Elementary and middle schools.
Financial institutions and banks with drive-through facilities.
Health care facilities.
Health and fitness clubs.
Hotels and motels.
Restaurants—Full service and casual and any outdoor dining area in conjunction therewith, subject to the
regulations thereof elsewhere in this chapter.
Retail sales of any product, goods or material produced at or directly related to the principle use on site,
provided the following conditions are met:
The retail sales are subordinate to the principle use.
The gross floor area used for the retail sales is more than 15 percent but not more than 30 percent of the
total gross floor area of the principle building if a single user/occupant or of the principle user's occupied
space if within a multiple-user structure.
The retail sales are owned and operated solely by the principle user/occupant of the subject site.
The site can accommodate the minimum parking requirement for both the retail and principle use
components as set forth elsewhere in this chapter.
Permitted accessory uses.
Coffee shops and cafeterias located within the principal structure.
Garages or similar structures used to store vehicles and equipment.
Parking and loading as regulated herein.
Retail sales of any service or any product, goods or material produced at or directly related to the
principle use on site, subject to the following:
The retail sales are subordinate to the principle use.
The gross floor area used for the retail sales is not more than 15 percent of the total gross floor area or
3,000 square feet, whichever is less, of the principle building if a single user/occupant or of the principle
user's occupied space if within a multiple-user structure.
The retail sales are owned and operated solely by the principle user/occupant of the subject site.
Temporary outdoor event, cultural/entertainment event, and outdoor food sales, subject to regulations
thereof elsewhere in this chapter.
As a second example, we would like to submit the City of Blaine’s I1, light industrial, language for
consideration. The City of Blaine has seen significant private investment in development in the
last decade and has evolved their code to address any concerns that have arisen from the
community regarding these buildings and their tenants.
Their code is written as follows:
Sec. 121-20. - Permitted uses.
The following are permitted uses in the Light Industrial (I-1) District:

Of the elements noted in these codes, we request the following adapted business park code for
the City of Elk River:
Sec. 30-1295. BP business park district.
(a) Purpose.
(1) The business park district is established to encourage a planned, integrated
environment for certain industrial, office, and commercial uses, which are compatible

industrial or highway business. Development within the business park district will
correspond with the land use designation. Industrial and office uses are allowed
where the land use designation is light industrial, and commercial uses are allowed
where the land use designation is highway business.
(2) It is the intent of this section that development reflect common themes using
compatible architectural design and consistency in signage, landscaping, and lighting.
It is also the intent to encourage businesses, which generate a high number of jobs
per square foot rather than predominantly warehouse type uses.
(b) Permitted uses. Permitted uses in the BP district are as follows:

Architect Letter of Agreement Cal Portner
Justin Dunford
Action Requested
Approve, by motion, the letter of agreement for professional services with LSE Architects to design restroom
and shower improvements at the FT Center.
Background/Discussion
Staff discussed restroom/shower improvements at the FT Center during the April 13 Community Event
Center Commission Regular Meeting, the April 20 City Council Work Session, and the June 15 City Council
and Community Event Center Commission Joint Session. The improvements at The Yard warrant improved
restroom facilities based on continued demand for larger events, drawing 300 to 2,000 attendees. The facility
designed a single visiting locker room with built-in shower facilities; however, that locker room has been
converted to the Squatch home locker room and is rented by them annually. Visiting teams at any level do not
have access to showers, and this is notably challenging for high school and junior teams traveling great
distances after events. Furthermore, the Squatch are moving up from the USPHL to the NCDC league, and
the FT Center is regionally recognized as a premier venue. Locker room showers are necessary to attract
premier tournaments and showcases in the future.
Scope of work:
▪ Remodeling an existing 175 SF storage room in The Yard x Rinks and Links into a triple single-use
restroom.
▪ Remodeling an existing 185 SF storage room in Cornerstone Arena into dual shower rooms (west).
▪ Remodeling an existing 185 SF storage room in Cornerstone Arena into dual shower rooms (east).
LSE has included the services of structural and MEP engineering within the scope of work.

stream to the Building Reserve Fund to ensure solvency long into the future.
Because of the contractual agreements for community partnerships and growing operating revenues, staff feels
comfortable financing planned/proposed capital improvements with an interfund loan from the Building
Reserve Fund. Professional services total $10,400. Construction costs are expected to be near $200,000 and
will be bid once LSE completes the design.

Action Requested
Approve, by motion, the reclassification of the Economic Development Director position to pay grade 3E,
step C, effective June 28, 2026.
Background/Discussion
Before the hiring of our current economic development director, Brent O'Neil, this position reported to the
community development director and worked primarily within the realm of the EDA and HRA. This position
now reports directly to the city administrator and is responsible for higher-level and broader impacts on the
organization in negotiating land purchases and sales, financial policy development, and the impacts of decision-
making.
Review of the job factor scoring for this position indicates the appropriate placement is pay grade 3E.
Provided continued successful performance, Mr. O'Neil will move to step D on June 28, 2027, and the top
step on June 28, 2028. All other pay and benefits remain the same.

Curbing Replacement on 2021 Street Improvement Justin Femrite
Project Cal Portner
Justin Dunford
Action Requested
Approve, by motion, the quote for curbing and driveway replacement from North Country Concrete Inc.
Background/Discussion
We have an ongoing drainage concern that resulted from our 2021 Street Improvement Project. Originally,
our project team attempted to have the contractor mitigate the concern without impacting the adjacent
driveway approach. This has not been sufficient to accommodate the drainage along the curb line without
spilling into the adjacent driveway. A more impactful improvement that includes removal, regrading, and
replacement of the driveway apron, along with the curbing, has been discussed with the adjacent property
owner and agreed to as a more suitable solution to improve the drainage.
Staff met with the adjacent property owner and two different contractors on site to review. One contractor,
North Country Concrete Inc., provided a quote to complete the work. The quote is attached, and staff
recommends its approval.
Financial Impact
The $13,276.00 cost would be funded by the Pavement Management Fund.
Mission/Policy/Goal
Work with citizens to achieve goals.

Action Requested
Approve, by motion, the proposal submitted by HBS for $578,000 as the lowest qualified bid.
Background/Discussion
The city and ERMU IT staff discussed the Windows 2016 servers with the City Council in the Work Session
on March 16, 2026. The servers will no longer be supported by Microsoft effective January 12, 2027. All
routine security updates, patches, and technical support from Microsoft will end. Using these servers after the
support date leaves infrastructure vulnerable to ransomware, malware, and compliance failures.
Staff will begin migrating to supported versions or cloud alternatives (Azure/AWS) before that date. Staff
posted a request for proposals from May 8, 2026, to May 22, 2026. Staff received the following proposals:
▪ Computer Integration Technologies (CIT) - $469,000
▪ Heartland Business Systems (HBS) - $578,000
▪ Marco Technologies (Marco) - $595,000
Upon review, staff rejected the proposal submitted by CIT for not meeting the support level, licensing
structure, and disaster recovery expectations. These differences impact long-term cost, project risk, and
operational continuity. The RFP sought a complete virtualization, server, storage, and Microsoft licensing
solution. It also emphasized resiliency, reduced operational complexity, proper licensing, support, and a
solution that fits municipal operations. CIT does provide hardware, scale, licensing, and onsite work; however,
their proposal falls short in the clarification response:
▪ Linux VMs would be migrated by CIT, but Windows servers would be rebuilt as new Server 2025
VMs, and the City would be responsible for the services and data migration.
▪ Application compatibility with Server 2025 would need to be confirmed by the City with each
application vendor.
▪ Rollback planning for the Windows server migrations would be the City’s responsibility.
▪ DR testing is not included.
The Elk River Vision
A welcoming community with revolutionary and spirited resourcefulness, exceptional service, and community
engagement that encourages and inspires prosperity
Page 239 of 517 ▪ They could not provide a labor breakdown by phase.
▪ Some infrastructure items, like Veeam/proxy servers, were not clearly accounted for.
▪ Labor is time and materials, so the low number has more risk of changing once the project starts.
Ultimately, staff recommends approval of the HBS proposal as the lowest qualified bid.
Financial Impact
The Capital Reserve Fund has roughly $300,000 designated for IT and $400,000 in undesignated funds. IT will
need additional Capital Reserve Funds designated to continue investing in our aging infrastructure.
Mission/Policy/Goal
Meet changing needs - agile.

Dear Seth,
Computer Integration Technologies, Inc. (CIT) is pleased to submit this proposal in response to the
City of Elk River’s Request for Proposal for the replacement of its hyperconverged infrastructure.
We appreciate the opportunity to be considered as a technology partner for this important
initiative.
CIT brings more than 30 years of experience supporting Local City and State Government
organizations with secure, reliable, and scalable infrastructure solutions. Our proposed solution
leverages Scale Computing hyperconverged technology to deliver a resilient and easy to manage
platform that aligns with the City's operational needs, while minimizing complexity and risk.
While HPE SimpliVity has provided a robust and feature-rich platform, it introduces complexity in
deployment, management, and ongoing support. The reliance on VMware, coupled with layered
licensing and support models, has increased total cost of ownership (TCO) and operational
overhead. Replacing HPE SimpliVity with Scale Computing represents a strategic shift toward a
more efficient, cost-effective, and manageable IT infrastructure. This transition will position your
organization to better support future growth, enhance operational agility, and deliver a higher
level of service to the business.
Anticipated Business Impact:
• Reduce operational complexity and reliance on specialized IT resources
• Lower capital and operational expenditures
• Improve system resilience and uptime
• Accelerate response to business needs with a more agile infrastructure
CIT’s experience, technical expertise, and structured delivery approach make us a strong partner
for the City of Elk River. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Colton Jesse
Senior Account Manager

0 Scale Case Study - Government Agency
The Challenge
• Complex Legacy Systems: The agency relied on an aging VMware server farm that required separate,
siloed management for compute and storage (SAN).
• Resource Drain: Managing this traditional environment created heavy administrative overhead, pulling
the lean IT team away from user-facing initiatives.
• Cost Escalation: Complex VMware licensing and hardware maintenance led to unpredictable budgets and
a high total cost of ownership.
The CIT Solution
• Strategic Partnership: Utilizing our Managed IT Services framework, CIT designed a migration path
focused on eliminating downtime and ensuring data security.
• Unified Infrastructure: Deployed a unified Scale Computing Hyperconverged Infrastructure (HCI)
cluster, consolidating servers, storage, and virtualization into a single appliance.
The Business Outcomes
• Simplified Management: Stripped away the virtualization and SAN layers, reducing weekly infrastructure
management time drastically.
• Licensing Relief: Completely eliminated costly VMware licensing fees by utilizing Scale’s built-in
hypervisor.
• Resilience & Continuity: Delivered automated, built-in disaster recovery and high availability for critical
municipal services.
• Predictable TCO: Stabilized infrastructure spending for future budget cycles.

Dear Seth,
Marco Technologies is pleased to present this proposal to modernize the City of Elk River’s datacenter infrastructure. Building on
our successful 2020 deployment of the City’s HPE SimpliVity 380 Gen10 environment, this proposal represents a strategic
evolution to a next-generation platform designed to meet the City’s growing performance, security, and reliability requirements.
At the core of this modernization is the transition to the HPE SimpliVity 380 Gen11, introducing a fully all-flash storage
architecture across both production and disaster recovery environments. This marks a significant advancement from the City’s
current hybrid storage design.
This shift to all-flash delivers measurable operational and service-level benefits:
Consistent, predictable performance
All workloads operate at flash-level speed, eliminating the variability inherent in hybrid storage systems that rely on
caching mechanisms.
Reduced risk during failure scenarios
Faster rebuild and recovery times significantly decrease exposure during drive or node failures—an important
consideration for public sector operations.
Improved application responsiveness
Critical systems, databases, and user-facing services benefit from lower latency and higher throughput.
Operational simplicity
By removing storage tiering and cache dependency, the environment becomes easier to manage, troubleshoot, and
scale.
Performance parity between production and disaster recovery
The City’s DR environment is no longer a reduced-performance fallback, but a fully capable extension of the primary
datacenter.
While some alternative solutions continue to rely on hybrid storage architectures that depend on caching to approximate flash
performance, Marco’s proposed design delivers native, end-to-end flash performance by design—not by optimization. This
ensures the City receives consistent service levels under all workload conditions, not just during optimal cache scenarios.
I personally, along with the entire Marco team, appreciates the long-standing partnership with the City of Elk River and the
continued opportunity to support its IT environment. We value the collaborative working relationship we have built with the City’s
local IT team and enjoy working alongside them to support reliable, effective technology operations. We look forward to
continuing this partnership and supporting the City’s evolving infrastructure needs.

Cal Portner
Justin Dunford
Action Requested
Approve, by motion, Change Order 1 for the 2026 Parking Lot Improvements.
Background/Discussion
The 2026 Downtown Parking Lot Project is partially complete, and several field conditions have required
modifications to the original contract through a Change Order. Most of these changes resulted from
unforeseen underground infrastructure commonly encountered in historic downtown areas. The following
changes were made within the King Avenue parking lot project, resulting in a net contract increase of
$39,172.53:
▪ Shift the south curb line north eight feet to provide space for the future Main Street reconstruction
layout.
▪ Revised the Main Street water main connection to a wet tap, reducing construction costs while
eliminating water service interruptions to nearby businesses and residents.
▪ Replaced the water service serving 309 Jackson Avenue after it was found to conflict with the
proposed sanitary sewer main.
▪ An abandoned stairwell was found alongside the building on the east edge of the lot.
▪ Addressed multiple conflicts with the existing six-inch downspout drain lines encountered during
sanitary sewer installation.
In addition, the contract was amended to remove work at the FT Center that had previously been included
on behalf of ISD 728. Since ISD 728 elected not to proceed with those improvements, this change results in a
net contract decrease of $115,496.60. This reduction does not affect the city's financial obligation, as those
improvements were to be funded entirely by ISD 728.
Financial Impact
$30,172.53 will be paid with Pavement Management funds, and the remaining $9,000 will be reimbursed by Elk
River Municipal Utilities for item CO1.7.

Background/Discussion
The preliminary plat of Meadowsweet Bend was approved on September 16, 2024, and included I04 single
family lots. All lots will be served by a privately owned and maintained sewer system, which will connect to
the public system near the intersection of Joplin Street and County Road 33. The developer will pay a sanitary
sewer extension fee for each parcel.
The applicant, Twin City Land Development, is seeking approval of their second phase, which will plat 20 new
lots and replat one lot from the first addition. Replatting the existing lot, Lot 12, Block 2, requires the
vacation of existing drainage and utility easements so they do not conflict with the new parcel layout. The
perimeter and wetland buffer easements will be re-established with the final plat of the second addition.
Easement Vacation
The easements proposed to be vacated provide the standard perimeter drainage and utility easements and a
wetland buffer for Lot 12, Block 2, in the first addition of Meadowsweet Bend. If the easements were not
vacated, they would conflict with the usable areas for the new lots 1 and 2, Block 2, in the proposed second
addition. The realignment of the existing lot is consistent with the approved preliminary plat, the easement
vacation supports the intended use of the property, and areas requiring protection with an easement will be
established when the final plat for the second addition is recorded.
Development Agreement
The conditions for the approval of the plat include a requirement that a Development Agreement be signed
and recorded. Staff drafted the attached Development Agreement outlining the costs, responsibilities, and
required security in the form of a Letter of Credit. The agreement also outlines the park dedication
requirements included in the preliminary plat approval.
The developer has reviewed the document, and staff have included their recommended changes.

DEVELOPMENT CONTRACT
(Developer Installed Improvements)
MEADOWSWEET BEND SECOND ADDITION
THIS DEVELOPMENT CONTRACT (the “Contract”) dated July 6, 2026, by and between the
CITY OF ELK RIVER, a Minnesota municipal corporation (“City”), and TCLD-LF5 Meadowsweet, LLC (the
“Developer”).
1. REQUEST FOR PLAT APPROVAL. The Developer has asked the City to approve a plat for
Meadowsweet Bend Second Addition (referred to in this Contract as the "plat"). The land is situated in the
County of Sherburne, State of Minnesota, and is legally described in Exhibit A.
2. CONDITIONS OF PLAT APPROVAL. The City hereby approves the plat on condition that
the Developer enter into this Contract, furnish the security required by it, and record the plat with the County
Recorder or Registrar of Titles within two years after the City Council approves the final plat.
3. RIGHT TO PROCEED. Within the plat or land to be platted, the Developer may not grade or
otherwise disturb the earth or remove trees, unless a grading permit has been approved by the City Engineer
following approval of a preliminary plat by the City Council, construct sewer lines, water lines, streets, utilities,
public or private improvements, or any buildings until all the following conditions have been satisfied: 1) this
agreement has been fully executed by both parties and filed with the City Clerk, 2) the necessary security has
been received by the City, 3) the necessary insurance for the Developer and its construction contractors has
been received by the City, 4) the plat has been filed with the Sherburne County Recorder or Registrar of Titles’
office, and 5) all required permits are secured and a copy filed with the City Engineer.
Page 316 of 517
4. PHASED DEVELOPMENT. If the plat is a phase of a multi-phased preliminary plat, the City
may refuse to approve final plats of subsequent phases if the Developer has breached this Contract and the
breach has not been remedied. Development of subsequent phases may not proceed until Development
Contracts for such phases are approved by the City. Park dedication charges referred to in this Contract are
not being imposed on outlots, if any, in the plat that are designated in an approved preliminary plat for future
subdivision into lots and blocks. Such charges will be calculated and imposed when the outlots are final platted
into lots and blocks.
5. PRELIMINARY PLAT STATUS. If the plat is a phase of a multi-phased preliminary plat, the
preliminary plat approval for all phases not final platted shall lapse and be void unless final platted into lots
and blocks, not outlots, within five (5) years after preliminary plat approval.
6. CHANGES IN OFFICIAL CONTROLS. For five (5) years from the date of this Contract, no
amendments to the City’s Comprehensive Plan, except an amendment placing the plat in the current
metropolitan urban service area, or official controls shall apply to or affect the use, development density, lot
size, lot layout or dedications of the approved plat unless required by state or federal law or agreed to in writing
by the City and the Developer. Thereafter, notwithstanding anything in this Contract to the contrary, to the full
extent permitted by state law, the City may require compliance with any amendments to the City’s
Comprehensive Plan, official controls, platting or dedication requirements enacted after the date of this
Contract.
7. DEVELOPMENT PLANS. The Subdivision shall be developed in accordance with the
following plans (The Plans). The Plans shall not be attached to this Agreement. Except for Plans A, B and E,
the Plans may be prepared, subject to the City Engineer’s approval, after entering into this Agreement, but
before commencement of any work in the Development. The City Engineer may approve minor amendments
to Plan B without City Council approval. If the Plans vary from the written terms of this Contract, the written
terms shall control. The Plans are:
Plan A - Plat
Plan B - Final Grading, Drainage, and Erosion Control Plan & SWPPP
Plan C - Plans and Specifications for Public Improvements
Page 317 of 517
Plan D – Landscape Plan
Plan E – Storm water Management Plan detailing long term ownership, maintenance schedules and
procedures for all stormwater facilities as required by the City’s MS4 permit
Plan F – Development Plan, to include the items noted in Exhibit B.
8. IMPROVEMENTS. The Developer shall install and pay for the following:
A. Sanitary Sewer System
B. Storm Sewer System
C. Streets
D. Street Lights
E. Site Grading, Stormwater Treatment/Infiltration Basins, and Erosion Control
F. Underground Utilities
G. Setting of Iron Monuments
H. Surveying and Staking
I. Sidewalks and/or Trails
J. Retaining Walls
K. Landscaping
The improvements shall be installed in accordance with the City subdivision ordinance; City standard
specifications for utility and street construction; and any other ordinances including Section 30-416 of the City
Code concerning erosion and drainage and Section 46-39 prohibiting grading, construction activity, and the
use of power equipment on Sundays and between the hours of 9 o’clock p.m. and 6 o’clock a.m. Monday
through Saturday. The Developer shall submit plans and specifications which have been prepared by a
competent registered professional engineer to the City for approval by the City Engineer. The Developer shall
instruct its engineer to provide adequate field inspection personnel to assure an acceptable level of quality
control to the extent that the Developer’s engineer will be able to certify that the construction work meets the
approved City standards as a condition of City acceptance. In addition, the City may, at the City’s discretion
and at the Developer’s expense, have one or more City inspectors and a soil engineer inspect the work on a
full or part-time basis. The Developer, its contractors and subcontractors, shall follow all instructions received
from the City’s inspectors. The Developer’s engineer shall provide for on-site project management. The
Page 318 of 517
Developer’s engineer is responsible for design changes and contract administration between the Developer
and the Developer’s contractor. The Developer or its engineer shall schedule a pre-construction meeting at a
mutually agreeable time at the City with all parties concerned, including the City staff, to review the program
for the construction work.
In accordance with Minnesota Statutes 505.021, the final placement of iron monuments for all lot
corners must be completed before the applicable security is released. The Developer’s surveyor shall also
submit a written notice to the City certifying that the monuments have been installed following site grading,
utility and street construction.
9. PERMITS. The Developer shall obtain or require its contractors and subcontractors to obtain
all necessary permits, which may include:
A. Sherburne County for County Road Access and Work in County Rights-of-Way
B. Minnesota Department of Health for Watermains
C. MPCA NPDES Permit for Construction Activity
D. MPCA for Sanitary Sewer and Hazardous Material Removal and Disposal
E. DNR for Dewatering and water appropriations
F. Army Corps of Engineers for construction of sedimentation ponds
G. City of Elk River for Building Permits
H. MCES for Sanitary Sewer Connections
I. City of Elk River for Retaining Walls
10. DEWATERING. Due to the variable nature of groundwater levels and stormwater flows, it
will be the Developer’s and the Developer’s contractors and subcontractors responsibility to satisfy
themselves with regard to the elevation of groundwater in the area and the level of effort needed to perform
dewatering and storm flow routing operations. All dewatering shall be in accordance with all applicable
county, state, and federal rules and regulations. DNR regulations regarding appropriations permits shall
also be strictly followed.
11. TIME OF PERFORMANCE. The Developer shall install all required public improvements by
November 30, 2026, with the exception of the final wear course of asphalt on streets. The final wear course
on streets shall be installed between August 15th and October 15th the first summer after the base layer of
asphalt has been in place one freeze thaw cycle. The Developer may, however, request an extension of time
Page 319 of 517
from the City. If an extension is granted, it shall be conditioned upon updating the security posted by the
Developer to reflect cost increases and the extended completion date. Final wear course placement outside
of this time frame must have the written approval of the City Engineer. No street construction will be allowed
after October 15 or prior to May 15 unless approved by the City Engineer.
12. LICENSE. The Developer hereby grants the City, its agents, employees, officers and
contractors a license to enter the plat to perform all work and inspections deemed appropriate by the City in
conjunction with plat development.
13. EROSION CONTROL. Prior to initiating site grading, the erosion control plan, Plan B, shall be
implemented by the Developer and inspected and approved by the City. The City may impose additional
erosion control requirements if they would be beneficial. All areas disturbed by the grading operations shall
be stabilized per the MPCA Stormwater Permit for Construction Activity. Seed shall be in accordance with the
City’s current seeding specification which may include temporary seed to provide ground cover as rapidly as
possible. All seeded areas shall be fertilized, mulched, and disc anchored as necessary for seed retention.
The parties recognize that time is of the essence in controlling erosion. If the Developer does not comply with
the MPCA Stormwater Permit for Construction Activity or with the erosion control plan and schedule or
supplementary instructions received from the City, the City may take such action as it deems appropriate to
control erosion. The City will endeavor to notify the Developer in advance of any proposed action, but failure
of the City to do so will not affect the Developer’s and City’s rights or obligations hereunder. If the Developer
does not reimburse the City for any cost the City incurred for such work within thirty (30) days after demand
by the City, the City may draw down the letter of credit to pay any costs. No development, utility or street
construction will be allowed and no building permits will be issued unless the plat is in full compliance with the
approved erosion control plan.
14. GRADING. The plat shall be graded in accordance with the approved grading development
and erosion control plan, Plan “B”. The plan shall conform to City of Elk River specifications. Within thirty (30)
days after completion of the grading and before the City approves individual building permits (except three (3)
model home permits on lots acceptable to the Building Official), the Developer shall provide the City with an
“as constructed” grading plan certified by a registered land surveyor or engineer that all storm water
Page 320 of 517
treatment/infiltration basins and swales, have been constructed on public easements or land owned by the
City. The “as constructed” plan shall include field verified elevations of the following: a) cross sections of
storm water treatment/infiltration basins; b) location and elevations along all swales, wetlands, wetland
mitigation areas if any, locations and dimensions of borrow areas/stockpiles, and installed “conservation area”
posts; and c) lot corner elevations and house pads, and all other items listed in City Code. The City will
withhold issuance of building permits until the approved certified grading plan is on file with the City and all
erosion control measures are in place as determined by the City Engineer. The Developer certifies to the City
that all lots with house footings placed on fill have been monitored and constructed to meet or exceed
FHA/HUD 79G specifications. The soils observation and testing report, including referenced development
phases and lot descriptions, shall be submitted to the Building Official for review prior to the issuance of
building permits.
Before a building permit is issued, a cash escrow of $1,000.00 per lot shall be furnished to the City
to guarantee compliance with the erosion control and grading requirements and the submittal of an as-built
certificate of survey. Prior to the release of the required individual lot grading and erosion control security that
is submitted with the building permit, an as-built certificate of survey for single family lots must be submitted to
verify that the final as-built grades and elevations of the specific lot and all building setbacks are consistent
with the approved grading plan for the development, and amendments thereto as approved by the City
Engineer, and that all required property monuments are in place. If the final grading, erosion control and as-
built survey is not timely completed, the City may enter the lot, perform the work, and apply the cash escrow
toward the cost. Upon satisfactory completion of the grading, erosion control and as-built survey, the escrow
funds, without interest, less any draw made by the City, shall be returned to the person who deposited the
funds with the City.
15. CLEAN UP. The Developer shall clean dirt and debris from streets that has resulted from
construction work by the Developer, home builders, subcontractors, their agents or assigns. Prior to any
construction in the plat, the Developer shall identify in writing a responsible party and schedule for erosion
control, street cleaning, and street sweeping.
Page 321 of 517
16. OWNERSHIP OF IMPROVEMENTS. Upon completion of the work and construction required
by this Contract and final acceptance by the City, the public improvements lying within public easements shall
become City property without further notice or action. No improvements will be accepted prior to all disturbed
areas of the site being fully vegetated and functioning in accordance with the approved construction and storm
water management plans.
17. CITY ENGINEERING ADMINISTRATION, CONSTRUCTION OBSERVATION AND
AS-BUILT RECORD DRAWING PREPARATION.
Developer shall reimburse the City for all the City’s costs and expenses incurred in the processing of the
Subdivision and installation of improvements, including review of plans and construction observation and in
regard to any action or event of default by Developer, resulting in any suit or proceeding at law or in equity to
which the City shall become a party in reference to the Developer’s interest in the Development.
Reimbursement shall be due and payable to the City within thirty (30) days following the receipt of a statement
therefore. The Developer shall post a cash escrow in the amount of five percent (5%) of the estimated costs
of the Improvements. This escrow will be drawn from as the project progresses to cover the City’s ongoing
costs and expenses relating to administration and construction observation of the Improvements. City
administration will include, but is not limited to, supervision of construction observation, consultation with
Developer and its engineer on status or problems regarding the project, coordination for final inspection and
acceptance, project monitoring during the warranty period, and processing of requests for reduction in security.
Construction observation shall include full to part time inspection of all work associated with the improvements.
Based on past experience it is estimated that an escrow of five percent (5%) shall be sufficient to cover the
City related expenses associated with the work. Delays, change in work scope, contractor performance, etc.
can all contribute to this amount not being sufficient. All City costs experienced in excess of the escrow are
the responsibility of the Developer. These costs will be billed directly to the Developer and become due per
the terms stated in Section 26. Upon acceptance of all completed improvements, as required by this
agreement, any remaining balance will be returned to the Developer within 30 days.
18. SANITARY SEWER EXTENSION FEE. The parent parcels of the Meadowsweet Bend plat
were not assessed the trunk portion of the sanitary sewer that extends along the south side of the subdivision;
Page 322 of 517
therefore, this phase of development of Meadowsweet Bend is subject to a sanitary sewer extension fee
calculated as follows:
20 dwelling units x $9030.00/unit = $180,600.00
The fee is due prior to releasing the final plat for recording.
19. CONSTRUCTION ACCESS. Construction traffic for grading, public utility construction, and
public street construction is restricted to access the subdivision via County Road 33 (Ranch Road). No
construction traffic is permitted on the adjacent local streets.
20. PARK DEDICATION. The Developer shall pay a pro-rated cash contribution of $44,882.20 in
satisfaction of the City’s park dedication requirements. The charge was calculated as follows: 20 lots at
$2,244.11 per lot.
The pro-rated amount is calculated at 73.2% of the standard park dedication rate ($3,065.73/lot)
outlined in the city’s fee schedule. The reduced amount accounts for two parcels to be dedicated to the City
as partial credit for the full dedication requirement. The two parcels are identified with the city council’s approval
of the preliminary plat. First, the 1.65-acre outlot along the east side of Burr Oak Park. Second, the parcel
abutting the northwest corner of Burr Oak Bark, less the area encumbered by the overhead power easement,
calculated at 0.74 acres. Ordinance requires a full land dedication of 8.7984 acres. The described land
dedication shall occur with future plats of the Property and will then satisfy 26.8% of dedication requirements,
leaving 73.2% to be satisfied with a per lot cash dedication.
21. LANDSCAPING. Unless the lot already has two (2) trees on it, the Developer or lot purchaser
shall plant sufficient trees so that there are at least two (2) trees on every lot in the plat, one of which must be
planted in the front yard. Trees that are chosen by the Developer or property owner cannot cause a public
nuisance, such as cotton producing trees, or trees that may become a public hazard due to insect infestation
or weak bark. The minimum deciduous tree size shall be two (2) inches caliper, balled and burlapped.
Evergreen trees must be at least six feet (6’) tall. The trees may not be planted in the right-of-way. The
Developer or lot purchaser shall sod the front yard, boulevard, and side yards to the rear of the structure on
every lot or as otherwise agreed between the City and the Developer. Weather permitting, the trees, sod,
and seed shall be planted within sixty (60) days after a home has received a certificate of occupancy. Before
Page 323 of 517
a certificate of occupancy is issued, a cash escrow of $1,000.00 per lot shall be furnished the City to
guarantee compliance with the landscaping requirements. If the landscaping is not completed in a timely
manner, the City may enter the lot, perform the work, and apply the cash escrow toward the cost. Upon
satisfactory completion of the landscaping the escrow funds, without interest, less any draw made by the
City, shall be returned to the person who deposited the funds with the City. All trees shall be warranted to
be alive, of good quality, and disease free for twelve (12) months after planting. Any replacements shall be
warranted for twelve (12) months from the time of planting. The Developer or property owner is responsible
for contacting the City when all the landscaping has been installed to set up an inspection. Fifty percent
(50%) of the security will be released when all the landscaping has been installed and inspected by City
staff and the remaining fifty percent (50%) will be released one year after the landscaping inspection and
any warranty work has been completed.
22. SPECIAL PROVISIONS. The following special provisions shall apply to plat development:
A. Compliance with City Resolution No. 26-xx granting final plat approval and the conditions stated
therein.
B. The City will not assume ownership of the private sanitary system and prior to acceptance of any
public improvements, the City Engineer will review the Home Owners Association (HOA)
documents specific to the long-term maintenance plans and obligations related to the private
sanitary sewer system.
C. The Developer shall install a full cul-de-sac on the east end of 218th Ave NW and install a sign that
reads “FUTURE THROUGH STREET.”
D. Roadway easements for the portions of the cul-de-sac on 218th Ave NW that encroach into Lot 11,
Block 1, and lots 9 and 10, Block 2 will need to be prepared and recorded after the final plat.
E. Prior to releasing the final plat for recording, the Developer shall furnish a boundary survey of the
proposed property to be platted with all property corner monumentation in place and marked with
lath and a flag. Any encroachments on or adjacent to the property shall be noted on the survey.
The Developer shall post a $2,200 security for the final placement of interior subdivision iron
monuments at property corners. The security was calculated as follows: 22 lots/outlots at $100.00
Page 324 of 517
per lot/outlot. The security will be held by the City until the Developer's land surveyor certifies that
all irons have been set following site grading and utility and street construction. In addition, the
certificate of survey must also include a certification that all irons for a specific lot have either been
found or set prior to the issuance of a building permit for that lot.
F. The Developer shall be responsible for the cost of street light installation consistent with a street
lighting plan approved by Elk River Municipal Utilities.
G. The Developer is required to submit the final plat in electronic format. The electronic format shall
be either AutoCAD.DWG file or a .DXF file. All construction record drawings (e.g., grading, utilities,
streets) shall be in electronic format in accordance with standard City specifications. All constructed
public utilities shall be field surveyed after construction with all location, elevation, and data
attributes information, deliverable to the City in an approved sub-foot accurate GIS/GPS format.
H. Until the public improvements are accepted by the City or a written agreement expressly reached
in advance, the Developer is responsible for snow removal and ensuring access by Emergency
Response vehicles and equipment.
I. All mailboxes shall be in a style and location acceptable to the Elk River Postmaster.
J. The Developer shall convey to the City, prior to the final approval of plans and specifications and
at no cost to the City, all permanent and temporary easements for the installation and
maintenance of all public improvements determined to be necessary by the City. All such
easements shall be in a recordable form acceptable to the City and contain such terms and
conditions as the City may prescribe.
23. SUMMARY OF SECURITY REQUIREMENTS. To guarantee compliance with the terms of
this Contract, payment of real estate taxes including interest and penalties, payment of special assessments,
payment of the costs of all public improvements, and construction of all public improvements, the Developer
shall furnish the City with a cash escrow, or letter of credit, in the form attached hereto, from a bank ("security")
for $ 376,000.00. The amount of security was calculated as follows:
Page 325 of 517
CONSTRUCTION COSTS:
A. Storm Sewer/Drain tile $ 0.00
B. Streets $ 232,000.00
E. Erosion Control/Stormwater Basins,
Restoration, Grading Certification $144,000.00
CONSTRUCTION TOTAL $ 376,000.00
This breakdown is for historical reference; it is not a restriction on the use of the security. The bank
shall be subject to the approval of the City Administrator. The City may draw down the security, on five (5)
business days written notice to the Developer, for any violation of the terms of this Contract or without notice
if the security is allowed to lapse prior to the end of the required term. If the required public improvements are
not completed at least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the security, the City may also draw it down
without notice. If the security is drawn down, the proceeds shall be used to cure the default. Upon receipt of
proof satisfactory to the City that work has been completed and financial obligations to the City have been
satisfied, with City approval the security may be reduced from time to time by ninety percent (90%) of the
financial obligations that have been satisfied. Ten percent (10%) of the amounts certified by the Developer's
engineer shall be retained as security until all improvements have been completed, all financial obligations to
the City satisfied, the required "as constructed" plans have been received by the City, a warranty security is
provided, and the public improvements are accepted by the City Council. The City’s standard specifications
for utility and street construction outline procedures for security reductions.
24. SUMMARY OF CASH REQUIREMENTS. The following is a summary of the cash
requirements under this Contract which must be furnished to the City prior to the Mayor signing the final plat:
A. Park Dedication $ 44,882.20
B. City Engineering Administration $ 18,800.00
(5% of public improvement costs)
C. Sewer Extension Fee $ 180,600.00
TOTAL CASH REQUIREMENTS $ 244,282.20
25. WARRANTY. The Developer warrants all improvements required to be constructed by it
pursuant to this Contract against poor material and faulty workmanship. The warranty period for streets is two
years. The warranty period for underground utilities is two years and shall commence following completion
Page 326 of 517
and acceptance by City Council. The two year warranty period on streets shall commence after the final wear
course has been installed and accepted by the City Council. The Developer shall post maintenance bonds or
a letter of credit in the amount of twenty-five percent (25%) of final certified construction costs to secure the
warranties. The City shall retain ten percent (10%) of the security posted by the Developer until the
maintenance bonds or letter of credit are furnished to the City or until the warranty period expires, whichever
first occurs. The retainage may be used to pay for warranty work if the Developer fails to timely perform such
work; provided the Developer is first given notice of the work in default not less than five (5) business days in
advance, except that no notice is required in an emergency as determined by the City. The City’s standard
specifications for utility and street construction identify the procedures for final acceptance of streets and
utilities.
26. RESPONSIBILITY FOR COSTS.
A. Except as otherwise specified herein, the Developer shall pay all costs incurred by it or the City in
conjunction with the development of the plat, including but not limited to Soil and Water
Conservation District charges, legal, planning, engineering and construction observation inspection
expenses incurred in connection with approval and acceptance of the plat, the preparation of this
Contract, review of construction plans and documents, and all costs and expenses incurred by the
City in monitoring and inspecting development of the plat.
B. The Developer shall hold the City and its officers, employees, and agents harmless from claims
made by itself and third parties for damages sustained or costs incurred resulting from plat approval
and development. The Developer shall indemnify the City and its officers, employees, and agents
for all costs, damages, or expenses which the City may pay or incur in consequence of such claims,
including attorneys' fees.
C. The Developer shall reimburse the City for costs incurred in the enforcement of this Contract,
including engineering and reasonable attorneys' fees.
D. The Developer shall pay, or cause to be paid when due, and in any event before any penalty is
attached, all special assessments referred to in this Contract. This is a personal obligation of the
Page 327 of 517
Developer and shall continue in full force and effect even if the Developer sells one or more lots,
the entire plat, or any part of it.
E. The Developer shall pay in full all bills submitted to it by the City for obligations incurred under this
Contract within thirty (30) days after receipt. If the bills are not paid on time, the City may halt plat
development and construction until the bills are paid in full. Bills not paid within thirty (30) days
shall accrue interest at the rate of eighteen percent (18%) per year. Additionally, the Developer
shall pay in full all bills submitted to it by the City prior to any reductions in the security for the
development.
F. In addition to the charges and special assessments referred to herein, other charges and special
assessments may be imposed such as but not limited to sewer availability charges ("SAC"), City
sewer connection charges, and building permit fees.
27. DEVELOPER’S DEFAULT. In the event of default by the Developer as to any of the work to
be performed by it hereunder, the City may, at its option, perform the work and the Developer shall promptly
reimburse the City for any expense incurred by the City, provided the Developer, except in an emergency as
determined by the City, is first given notice of the work in default, not less than forty-eight (48) hours in advance.
This Contract is a license for the City to act, and it shall not be necessary for the City to seek a Court order for
permission to enter the land. When the City does any such work, the City may, in addition to its other remedies,
assess the cost in whole or in part.
28. MISCELLANEOUS.
A. The Developer represents to the City that the plat complies with all city, county, metropolitan, state,
and federal laws and regulations, including but not limited to: subdivision ordinances, zoning
ordinances, and environmental regulations. If the City determines that the plat does not comply,
the City may, at its option, refuse to allow construction or development work in the plat until the
Developer does comply. Upon the City's demand, the Developer shall cease work until there is
compliance.
B. Third parties shall have no recourse against the City under this Contract.
Page 328 of 517
C. Breach of the terms of this Contract by the Developer shall be grounds for denial of building permits,
including lots sold to third parties.
D. If any portion, section, subsection, sentence, clause, paragraph, or phrase of this Contract is for
any reason held invalid, such decision shall not affect the validity of the remaining portion of this
Contract.
E. Grading, curbing, and one lift of asphalt shall be installed on all public and private streets prior to
issuance of any building permits, except three (3) model homes on lots acceptable to the Building
Official where access to the model homes for emergency vehicles is provided and maintained at
all times.
F. If building permits are issued prior to the acceptance of public improvements, the Developer
assumes all liability and costs resulting in delays in completion of public improvements and damage
to public improvements caused by the City, Developer, its contractors, subcontractors, material
men, employees, agents, or third parties. No sewer and water connections or inspections may be
conducted and no one may occupy a building for which a building permit is issued on either a
temporary or permanent basis until the streets needed for access have been paved with a
bituminous surface and the utilities are accepted by the City Engineer.
G. The action or inaction of the City shall not constitute a waiver or amendment to the provisions of
this Contract. To be binding, amendments or waivers shall be in writing, signed by the parties and
approved by written resolution of the City Council. The City's failure to promptly take legal action
to enforce this Contract shall not be a waiver or release.
H. This Contract shall run with the land and may be recorded against the title to the property. In the
event this Contract is recorded, upon request by Developer, the City covenants to provide a
recordable Certificate of Completion within a reasonable period of time following the request, upon
the completion of the work and responsibilities required herein, payment of all costs and fees
required and compliance with all terms of the Contract. A release of this Contract may be provided
in the same manner and subject to the same conditions as a Certificate of Completion provided
there are no outstanding or ongoing obligations of Developer under the terms of this Contract. The
Page 329 of 517
Developer covenants with the City, its successors and assigns, that the Developer is well seized
in fee title of the property being final platted and/or has obtained consents to this Contract, in the
form attached hereto, from all parties who have an interest in the property; that there are no
unrecorded interests in the property being final platted; and that the Developer will indemnify and
hold the City harmless for any breach of the foregoing covenants.

J. Indemnification. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Developer agrees to defend, indemnify
and hold harmless the City, and its employees, officials, and agents from and against all claims,
actions, damages, losses and expenses, including reasonable attorney fees, arising out of

Ordinance Amendment and Conditional Use Permit: Chris Leeseberg
Data Center, Michael Margulies - 19178 Industrial Cal Portner
Blvd NW Justin Dunford
Action Requested
The public hearing was opened on June 15, 2026, and continued to July 6, 2026. After receiving the
presentation from city staff, the City Council should receive public comments related to the draft ordinance
amendment.
After receiving public comments, the Council will close the public hearing for the ordinance amendment and
continue the hearing for the Conditional Use Permit Application to August 3, 2026.
Direct staff, by motion, to prepare a resolution making Findings of Fact denying the request to add data
centers as a conditional use in the I-1 (Light Industrial) zoning district. The motion should include specific
reasons for the denial. Staff will return with this resolution on July 20, 2026.
Background/Discussion
The Planning Commission and City Council have both held a public hearing regarding an ordinance
amendment to allow data centers in the I-1 zoning district, and a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) to allow a
new data center facility at 19178 Industrial Boulevard NW.
The public hearings generated a significant number of questions and comments about the applicant, project,
data centers in general, and how the city would regulate or monitor these facilities. At both meetings, staff
stated that they would complete additional research and coordinate with the appropriate entity to provide
written responses at the June 23, 2026, Planning Commission meeting. Responses to those questions were
presented to the Planning Commission on June 23, 2026, and the full Planning Commission packet is attached
for review.
The applicant also stated that a noise study, specific to their proposed facility at 19178 Industrial Boulevard
NW, would be available for review by June 23, 2026. The completed study is also included in the attached
Planning Commission packet. One resident has contacted staff with a discrepancy in the tables for existing
ambient noise. The updated study, with the corrected tables, is attached.
The city has also received several written comments from the public, and all the letters received as of July 1,
2026, are included for review.

Planning Commission
The Planning Commission continued its discussion and public hearing on June 23rd. The hearing regarding the
ordinance amendment was closed, and the hearing for the CUP was continued to July 28, 2026.
Staff presented the draft ordinance and reviewed public comments and their influence on the current draft. A
representative from ESI, the noise consultant hired by the developer, explained the noise measurements and
techniques used in the study as well as the study's conclusions. He also reviewed the challenges of the draft
ordinance as it relates to state laws and the measurable standards. The city cannot adopt a specific noise
standard that is above and beyond what has been established by the MPCA. As an example, the state
standards specifically address dBA, but not dBC, and the city cannot establish a limit on dBC sound levels.
During the public hearing, eight people spoke in opposition to the proposed ordinance. The majority of the
concerns raised were related to noise and the potential for low-frequency vibrations. Additional questions
regarding the potential annexation of land by the city, smells from diesel fuel tanks, and a request for more
specifics on the diesel generators were also shared. A request for a moratorium on data centers was also
requested.
At the conclusion of the hearing, the Planning Commission discussed the ordinance and how the current and
future data centers would or could be reviewed. They had concerns about allowing them in all the I-1 and I-2
zoning districts without additional standards beyond what are in the draft ordinance. The Commission was
also unsure whether the ordinance went far enough to protect residents from potential noise concerns.
The Planning Commission asked if data centers could be reviewed on a case-by-case basis rather than allowing
them in an entire zoning district. Staff reviewed the potential to review each data center site through a
separate Planned Unit Development (PUD) process. This would require both a zone change and an ordinance
amendment for each facility, rather than a CUP application as the current request from the developer would
allow. Nearby cities have adopted this process for data centers and Elk River could also consider a similar
process, but staff noted that is not the request before the commission.
The Planning Commission unanimously moved to recommend denial of the ordinance request to amend Sec.
30-1293, adding data centers as a conditional use, as they felt the request to amend the entire district left too
much uncertainty. The commission also asked the city council to consider a six-month moratorium on all data
center applications.

new data center facility at 19178 Industrial Boulevard NW.
The public hearings generated a significant number of questions and comments about the applicant, project,
data centers in general, and how the city would regulate or monitor these facilities. At both meetings, staff
stated that they would complete additional research and coordinate with the appropriate entity to provide
written responses at the June 23, 2026, Planning Commission meeting. Responses to those questions are
included with this staff report.

engagement that encourages and inspires prosperity
Page 346 of 517The applicant also stated that a noise study, specific to their proposed facility at 19178 Industrial Boulevard
NW, would be available for review by June 23, 2026. The completed study is attached to this staff report.
The city has also received a number of written comments from the public, and all the letters received as of
June 18, 2026, are included for review.
City Review
As the applicant submitted both an ordinance amendment to add a new use to an existing zoning district, and
a CUP to utilize a new facility at the same time, the two conversations have largely been discussed as one
topic. However, these are two very different land use requests and should be discussed separately to ensure
each is reviewed on their own merits.
With that in mind, staff has notified the applicant that the Planning Commission will only be asked to make a
recommendation on the ordinance amendment during the June 23, 2026, meeting. The city council will also be
asked to review a draft ordinance on July 6, 2026.
Action on the CUP application is scheduled for a later meeting on July 28, 2026, and will be evaluated based
on an adopted ordinance.
If the City Council does not adopt an ordinance allowing data centers in the I-1 district, the Planning
Commission is still required to review the CUP application. However, the recommendation would be to
deny, as the use is not allowed.
The remainder of this memo will focus on the draft ordinance included with this staff report.
Ordinance Amendment
City staff have been working closely with the city attorney to draft an ordinance that attempts to address
concerns raised during the public hearing. Specifically, distance from residential areas, water use and
contamination, noise - from both the cooling equipment and backup generators, air pollution, and ongoing
monitoring.
First, the draft ordinance requires the data center facility to be at least 750 feet from any residential structure
and at least 500-feet from the nearest residentially zoned property. These setbacks were established by
reviewing the current data center setbacks from residential properties and peer community ordinances. The
two existing data centers have more than 50 homes within 750 feet of their boundaries and are located
across the road from residential zoning districts. The city receives very few complaints regarding their
operation.
Additionally, the proposed limits on data center size (35 MW) also limit the scope of impacts that a data
center will have on the surrounding communities. Much of the concern regarding data centers has come from
the very large 100 MW+ facilities that require significantly more cooling, power, and backup generation. As an
example, Monticello’s ordinance has the same 500-foot setback from residential properties but could allow a
facility of 500+ acres without a cap on energy uses. The energy cap would also be memorialized with an
agreement with the city’s power provider, ERMU, to ensure both entities are in agreement.
Second, cooling systems are required to be air-based systems that require zero consumption of water. Closed
loop systems that require a cooling tower and “blow down” procedure to extract heat from the facility would
not meet this standard. The draft ordinance limits the total water usage to 250,000 gallons per year. This limit
serves as a check to ensure water is not used for cooling needs. Staff identified this limit by reviewing typical
water usage for industrial facilities and annual water usage per employee.
Page 347 of 517Third, noise generated by a data center, or any industrial operation in the city, must comply with Minnesota
Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) noise standards established in Minn. Rules Ch. 7030. The draft ordinance
requires a noise analysis to be completed by a third-party engineer prior to submitting the application. The
specific noise study requirements described in the draft ordinance include: baseline noise levels around the
facility, daytime and nighttime noise levels expected upon project completion, A-weighted(dBA) and C-
weighted (dBC) comparisons, sound level monitoring and projections for multiple distances from the facility,
specific noise mitigation recommendations, a post construction compliance evaluation, and annual noise
monitoring.
The MPCA sets noise standards that preempt local government regulations. This means that the city cannot
establish standards that are more restrictive than those established under Minn. Rules Ch. 7030.
Fourth, backup generators are restricted to emergency use and may only be used when the primary source of
power has been interrupted or is unavailable. The draft ordinance allows routine generator testing and
requires all testing to occur between the hours of 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m., Monday through Friday. The
ordinance also grants the city authority to impose additional restrictions when testing creates unexpected
impacts on adjacent communities.
Most back-up generators are powered by diesel and, under the parameters of the draft ordinance, would be
the most likely source for air pollution from a data center. The developer is required to work with the MPCA
to verify whether an environmental review will be required. If one is required, it must be completed prior to
submitting an application for approval. Documentation of the MPCA’s decision will need to be provided.
Finally, the draft ordinance requires a decommissioning plan to ensure the city is not left with a facility that
cannot be used for a different use in the future. This plan would need to be prepared by a qualified
professional and would be binding on any future operators.
Planning Commission Action
In considering adoption of an ordinance to allow data centers in the I-1 and I-2 zoning districts, the
Commission should consider all verbal and written testimony. Topics for the commission to review include:
whether this is the appropriate zoning district, could the standards of the draft ordinance be modified to
better address concerns from the public, are there any standards that have not been included but should, and
does the ordinance protect the health, safety, and general welfare of the community.
When considering changes to the standards, please note that the requirements must be measurable and must
not conflict with state and federal rules or laws.
Financial Impact
None.
Mission/Policy/Goal
Appropriately govern in an ever-changing environment.

Proposed Ordinance Language
Elk River City Code Section 30-1293(d) allows data center use as a conditional use.
A Written Narrative
Applicant is the contract purchaser of the 1917 8 Industrial Blvd NW (the "Property") The
Property is zoned L-1 (Light Industrial). Applicant desires to use the Property for data
center purposes. The Elk River Zoning Code does not have show data center as a use--
permitted, conditional or otherwise,--within the Code. Applicant seeks to amend Elk River
City Code Section 30-1293(d) to add data center use as a conditional use.
The Property is in a industrial setting and is completely surrounded by industrial and
manfuacturing uses. The survey attached to this application shows that there is no
residential use within at leat 500 feet of any boundary of the Property.
Page 350 of 517Written Responses to Public Hearing Comments Regarding the Proposed Data Center at
19178 Industrial Boulevard
The following questions and comments were gathered during the public hearings held by the Planning
Commission on May 26, 2026, and the City Council on June 15, 2026. The responses are from
research and analysis completed by city and ERMU staff and, when noted, from the applicant.
1. Who is Elk River Capital, and are they related to the proposed facilities in Monticello or Elk
River Technologies, LLC (Becker)?
Applicant response - Elk River Capital is a single purpose Minnesota limited liability company that
will own and operate the Elk River facility. The facility will be operated under the tradename
"Irongate Data Center"--which is a business name, not an entity. Elk River Capital LLC is wholly
owned by Swervo Development Corporation, of which Mr. Abdul is the principal. Swervo is a
Minnesota corporation based in Minneapolis and is the owner of various commercial, industrial,
retail and residential projects. A short resume of recent representative Swervo projects is
attached.
Applicant Response - There is no connection with their organization and the proposed facilities in
Monticello or Becker, and they have no connection with Elk River Technologies, LLC.
Applicant Response – Those projects are in a completely different class than what is being
proposed for Elk River. Becker is a 600-Megawatt facility. Monticello is 400+ megawatts. Elk River is
23—eventually, at most, 33 megawatts. It's easy to throw all these projects into the same bucket
but there is virtually nothing the same about them. It's really important to make that distinction.
2. Why are multiple companies/LLCs used for the application and operation?
Applicant’s response - Michael Margulies is a consultant hired by Swervo and his company is
Newton RES LLC. Mr. Margulies often submits applications for Swervo under his company name to
ensure he receives all notices and staff responses related to the application. Newton RES LLC is
not involved beyond assisting the owner (Swervo) with the entitlements.
3. Why is Elk River Capital interested in this site?
Applicant’s response - Elk River Capital is interested in the site because; (a) the building is located
in an industrial area that is most appropriate to the operation of a data center; (b) the building is
of a type and size that can be effectively and economically repurposed for data center purposes;
(c) the current owners are going out of business and repurposing the site would result in the site
continuing to be put to good use as opposed to the building being abandoned; (d) ERMU
encouraged Elk River Capital to consider the site because the city has power availability and the
project would benefit both the operator and the city.

19178 Industrial Boulevard
4. If an ordinance allowing data centers passes, what would this mean for future data center
construction in the city?
A future data center would need to comply with the standards of the ordinance. The proposed
ordinance requires a Conditional Use Permit, which requires a public hearing at the Planning
Commission and City Council, along with multiple design and performance standards. A public
hearing notice is required to notify property owners within 500 feet of the subject parcel.
In addition to the ordinance standards, the developer is required to work with Elk River Municipal
Utilities ERMU to ensure their power needs can be met.
5. What is the difference between a cloud computing data center, an edge data center, and an
AI data center?
Cloud computing and AI data centers generally differ in the hardware that is installed within the
facility. Cloud computing facilities don’t rely on specialized computer chips. They share server
space with multiple tenants and act as a digital warehouse for data. They are operated by large
corporations, such as Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and Meta as well as other companies that
require the storage of electronic information data. These facilities host compute, storage, and
networking resources for enterprises and consumers worldwide.
An edge data center is generally smaller in both size and energy needs (typically under 50 MW),
located closer to end users and network hubs to reduce latency. They require less power, less
transmission infrastructure, and have a smaller footprint that large cloud or AI facilities.
Developer Note - A Colocation Edge Data Center refers to a data center that enables you to rent
out space for your own hardware. For example, instead of using your own on-premises space for
your servers, cables, networking devices, and other computing equipment, you can rent out space
in a data center. A colocation edge data center involves including the servers and other equipment
from numerous companies in a single data center. The hardware is often owned by the business
renting the space, and the data center staff only houses it or may assist in its operation. Enterprise
customers use colocation edge data centers to store their servers and other gear required for
regular business operations. Colocation ensures adequate bandwidth while providing shared,
secure areas in cool, controlled surroundings suited for servers.
AI data centers are a purpose-built, high-density facility, and power needs generally exceed 100
MW. They are built for a single purpose and utilize specialized computer chips to process massive
amounts of data.
All data centers require large amounts of energy and specialized cooling systems, but AI data
centers are larger, use more resources, and incorporate specialized equipment.
Page 352 of 517Written Responses to Public Hearing Comments Regarding the Proposed Data Center at
19178 Industrial Boulevard
The draft ordinance does not differentiate between these two types of facilities. The draft
ordinance addresses the external impacts of the facility, regardless of the data processed inside.
Standards limiting energy use (in coordination with ERMU), cooling equipment, footprint, and
noise are applied equally to any data center application. Together, these limitations limit the size
of facilities that could be developed in the city.
6. How does the proposal compare to the existing data centers in the community?
The existing data centers were constructed in 2006 and 2007 with design capacities of 10 MW and
20 MW. The facilities are cloud/data storage facilities. They are approximately160,000 SF and
240,000 SF in size.
The nearest residential structure is approximately 330 feet away and there are 50+ homes within
1,000 feet.
The proposed facility is approximately 60,000 SF in size and has a design capacity for 33 MW of
power. The nearest home is 930 feet away.
7. How does the electricity for the facility get here, how is it paid for, how will it impact the
rates? will the city or ERMU need more substations?
Electricity in Elk River is delivered over the Mid-continent Independent System Operator (MISO)
Transmission Grid through the Great River Energy Regional Transmission Grid, to
ERMU’s local distribution grid, and to the customer. MISO is one of seven independently operated,
but interconnected, transmission grids across the nation. MISO buys electricity from numerous
generation sources within the MISO Transmission Grid to meet the demand it receives from the
electric utilities within the MISO energy market.
ERMU purchases electricity from Minnesota Municipal Power Agency (MMPA), a wholesale power
provider, who in turn purchases the electricity for its members through the MISO energy market.
ERMU receives a monthly invoice from MMPA for its energy usage. ERMU pays the invoice using
funds received from rate payers. Customer bills are based on energy usage and rate class (e.g.
residential, commercial, industrial).
A single large energy customer, such as a data center, has a stabilizing effect on rates. Data
centers use large amounts of electricity and require a relatively small amount of infrastructure
and minimal operational costs. High revenues with minimal cost stabilizes rates because overhead
and operating expenses are spread across a larger volume of energy sales, reducing the cost
burden on other customers.
If the requested data center were to be approved, ERMU would expand an existing substation to
enable the installation of a third transformer. The data center developer would be required to pay
for all costs associated with the expansion and the new transformer.

19178 Industrial Boulevard
8. What are the results of the noise study?
The noise study reviewed existing ambient noise levels near the facility, the expected noise
generated by the proposed chillers and generators and made recommendations for on-site noise
mitigation. The study evaluated both high and low-frequency noise as well as C-weighted noise
levels.
The results show that with the recommended noise mitigation measures, the expected noise
levels will not exceed Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) standards for residential or
industrial areas. The full noise study is attached to the June 23, 2026, Planning Commission packet,
and will be provided upon request.
Additionally, to ensure compliance with the state noise standards, the draft ordinance includes
post-construction verification and annual verification for continued compliance.
9. Were any of the noise study tests done from the AEGIR patio?
The independent third-party noise study included a receiver (spot at which noise levels are
calculated) along the property line between AEGIR Brewing and the proposed data center site –
location G. This is between the chillers and AEGIR.
The study found that with the recommended noise mitigation, the site meets MPCA limits for
commercial property. This is a higher standard than what would be required of an industrial
property, which is where both operations are located.
10. What are the specifications of the diesel generators? Model, capacity, and expected annual
use? How can this impact the air quality in the area?
The noise study includes this information and identifies the specific generator as a 2,500 KW
Cummins Diesel Generator – model DQKAN. The proposed facility would include 10 generators.
The annual use would be limited to emergency/backup use only. This includes up to 100 hours for
annual testing, and 400 hours for backup use. The regular testing of these generators would be
limited to the hours between 8:00 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Monday through Friday.
The developer is also required to verify with the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) that
the use of these generators does not require an environmental review.
11. How much water are you going to be using?
The proposed system, and the requirements of the draft ordinance, limit the facility to standard
office/business water usage. The existing facility had previously used nearly one million gallons of
water at its peak operation. The draft ordinance caps water usage at 200,000 gallons per year.
Water usage will be monitored annually and must be reported to the city along with the annual
noise monitoring.
Page 354 of 517Written Responses to Public Hearing Comments Regarding the Proposed Data Center at
19178 Industrial Boulevard
12. How does the closed loop cooling system work? What chemicals are in the system? How are
potential leaks contained? How will these be filled initially and will the cooling towers
require any water from the city’s water system? Is there any physical connection between
the cooling towers and the municipal water system? What is a blowdown?
The developer has proposed, and the draft ordinance requires closed loop cooling equipment.
The specific model proposed by the developer, identified in the noise study, is a York model
YVFA0459, 550 nominal ton air-cooled screw chiller.
A chiller has a mechanical compression device that converts energy into compressed refrigerant
by using a compressor. The compressed refrigerant is piped to a condenser that rejects the heat
from the refrigerant to the atmosphere or some type of liquid coolant. The compressed
refrigerant changes from a gas to a liquid in the condenser and is piped to an evaporator where it
is metered or expanded in the evaporator. The expansion of the high-pressure liquid refrigeration
reduces the temperature of the evaporator. The liquid to be cooled is pumped through the
evaporator heat exchanger and heat is transferred to the refrigerant. The low-pressure vapor is
carried back to the compressor, and the cycle begins again for the refrigerant. The coolant flows
from the evaporator heat exchanger to the load where the heat is transferred to the coolant in the
load heat exchanger and then returns to the evaporator to repeat the cycle.
https://www.airbestpractices.com/technology/cooling-systems/six-basic-types-liquid-cooling-
systems
These chillers use a water-glycol mixture (similar to an automobile cooling system) that cycles
through the facility to absorb heat from the servers and an R-134a refrigerant to absorb and
remove heat from the water mixture. This proposed equipment does not use a cooling tower
where water (from the municipal system or a well) is used to remove heat from the internal closed
loop system.
The glycol mix along with the refrigerant will be delivered to the site in tankers or other
containers. The draft ordinance also prohibits any physical connection between the cooling/chiller
equipment and the municipal water service.
A “blowdown” is not utilized for a chiller but can be used for other cooling systems that rely on
cooling towers and external water sources. The proposal does not include this type of equipment.
13. Will there be ongoing monitoring and enforcement if noise or environmental impacts are
exceeded?
The draft ordinance requires post-construction noise verification and ongoing noise monitoring. If
noise levels exceed state standards, they are required to construct the necessary mitigation
measures or risk losing their approval.
Page 355 of 517Written Responses to Public Hearing Comments Regarding the Proposed Data Center at
19178 Industrial Boulevard
14. Are the construction jobs to build the data center going to be local?
This will be up to the developer. The city does not have the legal authority to regulate the
companies hired to complete the work beyond ensuring they are licensed to do the work.
15. Who is responsible for data center updates as they are supposed to last 10 years?
The developer would update and maintain their facility to ensure continued operation within
approved standards. Nearly every business has an uncertain life expectancy, including the
business which formerly utilized the proposed site.
16. How did this get on the schedule?
The applicant submitted a land use application to the city. Upon acceptance of a complete land
use application, the city is required to process the request in accordance with city codes and state
law. This includes required public notices and established meeting timelines.
It would be illegal to ignore or refuse to process a legal application. State law mandates that the
city acts and makes a formal decision to approve or deny the application within 60 days or, when
additional time is needed for a complete review, the timeline can be extended to 120 days.
Due to the extended review period required for the current applications, the review timeline has
been extended to the full 120 days, and the city must make a formal decision by August 25, 2026.
If the city did not process the applications within the required timeline, by law, they are
automatically approved.
17. Which council members have been paid off?
No Councilmember has received remuneration to support this application. The City of Elk River
has a Conflict-of-Interest Ordinance that is more strict than state law.
18. Have the city council members signed an NDA?
No member of the Elk River City Council or city staff has signed a Non-Disclosure Agreement.
19. What are the benefits to the city?
As with any new commercial or industrial development, projects can contribute to the local
economy through the addition of employment opportunities and an increase in the tax base. This
type of development may also provide services or products that support the needs of residents
and businesses. The specific benefits of each project vary depending on its size, nature, and long-
term viability.
Jobs created by a facility vary by industry and type. The applicant states the proposed 60,000 SF
facility will create 40 jobs. A similarly sized warehouse would create between 30 and 40 jobs.
Warehouses are allowed in the same zoning district.
Page 356 of 517Written Responses to Public Hearing Comments Regarding the Proposed Data Center at
19178 Industrial Boulevard
Additionally, the revenue sharing program between the city and ERMU, which is in addition to
property taxes, will generate a significant amount of revenue for the city.
20. What will the city do with the money?
Data center operations are required to pay property taxes, the same as any other business. ERMU,
as a public entity, does not pay property taxes. Instead, they pay the city an annual Payment In
Lieu of Taxes (PILOT), which by mutual agreement is 5% of the revenue generated from electric
use in the City of Elk River. The city uses the annual PILOT to fund portions of the General Fund,
park improvements, and equipment/vehicle replacement. The current PILOT reduces the city
property tax burden by approximately $1.7 million.
The projected new revenue is based on estimated electric usage and the final rate. The rate has
not yet been established by ERMU, but early estimates show a potential increase of $600,000 -
$800,000 annually.
If a data center is approved, the City Council will decide how to use the funds during the budget
process.
21. Will this impact property values?
Property values are determined by the Sherburne County Assessor’s Office and based on
comparable land sales in the area.
Residential property values near the existing data centers, which are closer than the proposed
data center, have followed similar market trends that have been observed throughout the
community.

INTRODUCTION
We understand Elk River Capital is developing the 19178 Industrial Blvd data center project in
Elk River, Minnesota. Ten chillers and ten emergency power generators will be installed at the
existing building (see Figure 1). All the chillers may run continuously during daytime and
nighttime hours. Only one generator will ever run at a time for maintenance, and only during
daytime hours.
Figure 1: Rendering of the 19178 Industrial Blvd data center site with the current chiller
mechanical yard and the generator intake and discharge air openings clouded.
Noise from the new equipment must meet the City of Elk River and State of Minnesota (MPCA)
requirements at neighboring properties. The City of Elk River is requiring the project team to
provide a sound study as part of the Conditional Use Permit application. The study must include
monitoring of the existing noise levels near the project site, evaluation of the new data center
equipment outdoor noise levels at nearby properties, a comparison of the results to MPCA noise
requirements, and a comparison of the results at residential receivers to additional low-
frequency noise design goals. The following report sections provide a summary of our findings.

Page 362 of 517ESI Engineering Elk River Capital Data Center Noise Control
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The following is a summary of the findings provided in this report:
1. Noise Requirements: Minnesota Rule 7030: Noise Pollution Control, establishes
maximum allowable L10 (10th percentile, louder levels) and L50 (50th percentile, median
levels) noise levels during daytime and nighttime hours based on the receiver type. The
more stringent L50 requirements are 50 dBA nighttime / 60 dBA daytime at residential
receivers, 60 dBA at educational receivers, 65 dBA at commercial receivers, and 75 dBA
at industrial receivers.
2. Site Conditions: The 19178 Industrial Blvd data center site in Elk River is within an
industrial park. There are residential receivers over 700’ to the northeast, educational
receivers over 500’ to the north, the nearest commercial receiver is along the south
property line, and industrial (manufacturing and street-right-of-way) properties are
around the remainder of the project site. The terrain around the site is relatively flat,
with only some increase in elevation to the northeast. The dominant noise sources at
the data center will be the new chillers that run all the time, and the generators that only
run for maintenance quarterly.
3. Ambient Noise Study and Observations: Ambient noise levels were monitored at the
project site and close to nearby residential properties. The noise levels were evaluated
between the 7:00 AM hours of Sunday, June 14th to Monday, June 15th. This period had
low wind speeds (especially at night) and reduced traffic quantities. The measurements
yielded hourly L10 and L50 sound pressure levels which were then compared to the
MPCA requirements. The dominant noise source during the monitoring period was
traffic noise on the adjacent County Road 1. While the traffic noise levels at the
residential location did not exceed the MPCA limits during the daytime hours and most
of the nighttime hours, noise from trains and vehicular traffic did exceed the limits during
the 4:00 AM, 5:00 AM, and 6:00 AM nighttime hours.
4. Equipment Noise Analysis: Using site layouts, site topography, and manufacturer
provided sound power data for the new equipment, calculations were prepared to
evaluate outdoor radiated noise from the new chillers and an emergency power
generator. Noise mitigation components included barrier walls around the chillers, and
sound attenuators at the generator intake air, discharge air, and combustion exhaust
paths. Noise contour plots were created to show the noise levels at receiver locations
within 1,000’ of the site. The analysis results show that the MPCA requirements are met
at all nearby receivers.

NOISE CONTROL AND TERMINOLOGY
In the United States, there is particular concern lately regarding enforcement of noise
emanating from data center sites. The Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) provides
outdoor noise control guidance in their document “A Guide to Noise Control in Minnesota”
(MPCA Guide). However, many municipalities and residents have questions that are beyond the
scope of the MPCA Guide. The following provide answers to noise questions commonly asked
by the public from the perspective of ESI noise control engineers who have experience
evaluating data center sites.
Noise Level Evaluation
Noise levels are commonly measured with a sound level meter, which detects acoustic pressure
variations in air and quantifies the variations as decibels (unit symbol dB). A young, healthy
human ear can sense acoustic pressure variations between 20 Hz (very low frequency or pitch)
and 20,000 Hz (very high frequency). Humans are most sensitive to sounds between 1,000
and 5,000 Hz, and less sensitive to sounds at lower and higher frequencies. To simulate the
response of the human ear, sound level meters can filter the low and high frequencies of the
measured pressure variations. The most common filter is called the A-weighted filter (unit
symbol dBA), which adjusts levels at various frequencies to roughly match how the human ear
perceives loudness (see Figure 2).
Figure 2: Comparison of human hearing to common filters (MPCA Guide, Figure 4).
Low-Frequency Noise
Research has shown that A-weighted sound levels best match how humans typically perceive
loudness. However, C-weighting (unit symbol dBC) is a second common method, which does
not filter as much sound at low-frequencies (also shown in Figure 2). Since people tend to be
more accepting of continuous low-frequency sound, we usually only see C-weighted levels
evaluated when dealing with music bass noise transmission into sensitive living spaces.
v

In recent months, many residents around the country have issued complaints about data center
“low-frequency” noise and vibration concerns. While airborne, low-frequency sound does have
the ability to produce noise-induced vibration if the amplitudes exceed minimum thresholds, we
are unaware of any documented cases of data centers producing this issue at neighboring
properties, and this has not been an issue for any of our other similar projects.
Distance Effects
Think of sound radiating away from a source near the ground as an ever-growing hemisphere
into the open air. As noise travels away from a sound emitter, the sound level decreases with
distance because the hemisphere is growing larger and the sound is being spread over a greater
area. For every doubling of distance from the source, the noise levels are reduced by 6 dBA, as
shown in Figure 3.
Figure 3: Illustration of sound reduction with doubling of distance (MPCA Guide, Figure 6).
Noise Source Addition
One common factor for noise amplification is increasing the number of noise units or sources.
Sound levels from multiple sources add logarithmically. Figure 5 illustrates who every doubling
in the number of sources with the same sound level increases noise by 3 dBA (e.g., 70 dBA +
70 dBA = 73 dBA). However, sources with levels that are more than 10 dBA different do not
cause an increase in the combined level (e.g., 70 dBA + 60 dBA = 70 dBA). Therefore, the
combined sound from two sources will increase the total noise level by 0 and 3 dBA.
Figure 4: Illustration of sound level increase with doubling in the number of sources
(MPCA Guide, Figure 7).
vi

Atmosphere / Meteorological Effects
Wind speeds and direction, and temperature gradients (changes in temperature with elevation)
both increase and decrease noise propagation to distant receiver locations. Within 300’ of a
noise source, environmental effects like wind and temperature inversion can be ignored. At
distances greater than 300’, these factors can increase or decrease sound levels.
• When temperatures are cooler near the ground, and/or winds are in the direction from
the noise source toward the receiver, sound is refracted1 down toward the receiver,
which increases source noise levels at the receiver position (see example in Figure 5).
• When temperatures are warmer near the ground, and/or winds are in the direction from
the receiver toward the noise source, sound is refracted up into the atmosphere,
resulting in quieter source noise levels at the receiver position.
Figure 5: Acoustics Today image showing sound refraction due to temperature.
Our analysis uses ANSI S12.622 standardized methods to evaluate noise attenuation with
distance, which includes a conservative assumption of “meteorological conditions which are
favorable for propagation from the source to that receiver [under evaluation].” However, we
also include an additional 2 dB meteorological factor with our calculations, with an
understanding that, “values in excess of 2 dB are exceptional.”
1 According to the Oxford dictionary, refraction is the “change in direction of propagation of any wave as a result of
its traveling at different speeds at different points along the wave front.”
2 ANSI-ASA S12.62 Attenuation of sound during propagation outdoors – Part 2; General method of calculation.
vii

Barrier and Forest Effects
An engineering noise analysis should consider reflections from large flat surfaces and the
barrier effect caused by walls, buildings, berms, and hills. Conversely, barrier effects produced
by trees can be ignored unless there is a well-maintained, dense, evergreen forest that is more
than 150’ deep. For example, per ANSI S12.62, 150’ of dense foliage reduces noise by only
2.3 dB at the 500 Hz frequency.
Ambient Noise Effects
Figure 6 shows how humans typically perceive changes in sound pressure levels. The MPCA
requirements do not include criteria for how much change from the ambient noise levels (the
background noise level that exists without the source level) is permissible. Unfortunately,
because ambient noise levels are constantly changing over the course of a day, and the degree
of change that is perceived as bothersome to people varies greatly, it is very complicated to
develop and regulate requirements around the difference between ambient and source noise
levels. Rather, the MPCA requirements provide maximum noise limits for varying receiver types,
which sets an objective measure for what receivers may expect at their properties, and what
producers must meet at neighboring properties.
Figure 6: Comparisons between decibel and perceived changes (MPCA Guide, Figure 5).
Figure 7 provides a comparison of sound pressure levels for common noises. It is especially
helpful that the chart shows that “Quiet” suburban and rural nighttime levels may be around
35 dBA and 20 dBA, respectively. In ambient noise studies that we perform, these are the
quietest levels that are measured. Nighttime levels typically range from 25 to 60 dBA, with
average hourly levels in the 40’s and 50’s. These average levels are near the MPCA 50 dBA
nighttime requirement for an L50 level at a residential receiver. In our opinion, based on project
experience in many municipalities, the MPCA requirements are reasonable, and exceeding these
limits would be too loud for many people.
viii

Figure 7: Noise level comparison chart (MPCA Guide, Figure 3).
Because the MPCA requirements are more stringent during nighttime hours, our analysis
includes a comparison of calculated data center equipment noise levels to the nighttime noise
limits. However, in general, time of day does not affect the propagation of sound. Data center
equipment noise only tends to be more noticeable during nighttime hours because other
sources of ambient noise are quieter and are not providing as much masking of the data center
noise.

PROJECT REQUIREMENTS AND CONDITIONS
The following sections provide information on noise requirements and site conditions at the
existing 19178 Industrial Blvd site in Elk River, Minnesota.
A. NOISE LEVEL REQUIREMENTS
The following is a review of outdoor noise level requirements that apply to the 19178 Industrial
Blvd site in Elk River, Minnesota based on our review of the City of Elk River Code, the State of
Minnesota Rules, and other published guidelines.
City of Elk River Code
The Code of Ordinances for the City of Elk River has noise requirements in Chapter 46 –
Nuisances. Section 46-38 – Excessive Noise, states the following:
“It is declared to be a public nuisance for any person to make or assist in the making of
any nuisance noise or any loud, unnecessary or unusual sound or any sound which
annoys, disturbs or affects the comfort, repose, health, peace, or safety of others in the
city.”
Unfortunately, the City Code does not include objective limits for noise at neighboring
properties. Because opinions on what noise levels are annoying will vary from person to person,
it is very difficult to enforce this requirement in and of itself.
State of Minnesota Rules
The State of Minnesota has requirements for maximum allowable noise levels per receiving land
use in Minnesota Rule 7030: Noise Pollution Control, which was prepared by the Minnesota
Pollution Control Agency (MPCA). Table A-1 shows the L103 and L504 noise limits per noise
area classification (NAC). In general, NAC 1 is residential and educational land use, NAC 2 is
commercial, NAC 3 is industrial, and NAC 4 is undeveloped. The requirements apply to all
sources of noise with few exceptions. Daytime is defined as being from 7:00 AM to 10:00 PM,
and nighttime is from 10:00 PM to 7:00 AM. The requirements are to be evaluated at the point
of the nearest receiver over 1 hour periods, the sound level meter must use a ‘Fast’ time-
weighting response, and the sound levels must be A-weighted.
3 L10 is the sound level that is exceeded 10% of the time during a measurement period, which are the louder levels.
4 L50 is the sound level that is exceeded 50% of the time during a measurement period, or the median level.

2 Commercial 70 dBA 65 dBA 70 dBA 65 dBA
3 Industrial 80 dBA 75 dBA 80 dBA 75 dBA
4 Undeveloped No Limits
The State of Minnesota defines what authority the MPCA has in Minnesota Statute 116.07
Powers and Duties. Subd. 2.c of this statute states the following:
“The Pollution Control Agency shall also adopt standards describing the maximum levels
of noise in terms of sound pressure level which may occur in the outdoor atmosphere,
recognizing that due to variable factors no single standard of sound pressure is applicable
to all areas of the state. … No local governing unit shall set standards describing the
maximum levels of sound pressure which are more stringent than those set by the
Pollution Control Agency.”
Project Requirements
Based on our review of the City of Elk River, State of Minnesota, and MPCA noise requirements,
the following are requirements for noise that apply to the 19178 Industrial Blvd data center
site:
1. The chillers will run continuously for more than 30 minutes of an hour. Therefore, the
equipment must meet the more stringent L50 limits in Table A-1.
2. The chillers will operate during both daytime and nighttime hours. Therefore, noise from
the chillers cannot exceed the nighttime noise level limits.
3. The generators will not be used for peak-shaving. They will only operate individually
during daytime hours for maintenance runs and must meet the more stringent daytime
L50 criteria. We assume emergency operation of the generators is exempt from the
noise requirements.
4. The requirements cannot be any more stringent than the limits in Table A-1.
5. Noise shall be evaluated at the nearest receiver positions on the neighboring properties.
6. The following provides a summary of the land use activities that are located within
1,000’ of the data center site per the specific NAC that apply to each:
a. NAC 1 – Household Units.
A-2
Page 370 of 517ESI Engineering Elk River Capital Data Center Noise Control
b. NAC 1 Daytime Only – Educational Services (the Meadowvale Elementary School
and Creative Kids Academy nighttime limits are the same as the daytime
requirements because they are not occupied, nor have people sleeping within
them, during nighttime hours).
c. NAC 2 – Recreational Trails, Business Services, and Restaurant (Aegir Brewery).
d. NAC 3 – Manufacturing, Utilities, Transportation, and Street Right-Of-Way.
e. NAC 4 – Undeveloped / Unused Land Areas.
Additional Design Goals
We understand the City of Elk River has asked for our evaluation to include specific and unique
analysis findings for nearby residential receivers. The following is a list of the requests, along
with our recommended design goals for this project. However, it should be understood that
there are no MPCA requirements regarding these findings, and Minnesota Statute 116.07 does
not allow for the enforcement of more stringent noise level limits than those set by the MPCA.
C-Weighted Limits
To evaluate the presence of loud low-frequency noise levels for this project, we will include a
summary of the measured and calculated overall “dBC – dBA” levels at receiver positions.
According to ASHRAE5, “When the quantity dBC – dBA is large (e.g., greater than 25 dB),
significant low-frequency sound is present. It is recommended that when specifying
background sound levels in dBA, the dBC is also included in the specification and does not
exceed the dBA reading by more than 20 dB.” Therefore, the residential receiver low-frequency
noise design goal for this project is a maximum dBC – dBA of 20 dB. The metric for
measurements should be the hourly average (equivalent continuous, Leq) sound pressure level.
Noise-Induced Vibration Limits
Airborne, low-frequency sound inside buildings can produce noise-induced vibration if the
amplitudes exceed minimum thresholds. According to ASHRAE6, indoor noise levels of more
than 65 dB at 31.5 Hz, and 69 dB at 63 Hz, “are likely to generate vibration that may be
perceptible. There is a slight possibility of rattles in light fixtures, doors, windows, etc.”
Therefore, because residential buildings provide about 15 dB of noise reduction at these
frequencies, the residential receiver 31.5 Hz and 63 Hz maximum outdoor design goals for this
project are 80 dB and 84 dB, respectively, measured as hourly Leq sound pressure levels.

B. PROJECT SITE CONDITIONS
The data center project site is located at 19178 Industrial Blvd in Elk River, Minnesota. The
existing site is zoned ‘Industrial’ and has been used for manufacturing. As shown in
Figure B-1, most of the neighboring properties are type NAC 3. There are also some NAC 1
properties to the north, NAC 2 properties to the north and south, and NAC 4 properties to the
west and south. While the topography in this area is relatively flat, the terrain lines in
Figure B-2 show that the ground elevations slope somewhat upward to the northeast.

(yellow border) with the neighboring NAC 1 (green), NAC 1 Daytime (yellow), NAC 2 (blue),
NAC 3 (red), and NAC 4 (magenta) receivers highlighted.

Blvd site.
The project includes the installation of ten chillers and ten emergency power generators. As
shown in Figure B-3, the chillers will be located either on the existing west rooftop or in a new
mechanical yard on the south side of the building, and the generators will be housed in a room
on the east side of the building. The generator room will have outdoor air intake openings
through the rooftop, and cooling air discharge openings through the south wall. The generator
combustion exhaust pipes will penetrate the rooftop and point straight up.

NOISE ANALYSIS
ESI Engineering was asked by Elk River Capital to assist with the following equipment noise
control services:
1. Monitor ambient noise levels at two locations near the project site.
2. Calculate the chiller and generator noise levels at properties within 1,000’ of the 19178
Industrial Blvd site based on manufacturer provided sound data and the site conditions.
The following sections summarize our findings.
C. AMBIENT NOISE STUDY
Noise was monitored for 24 hours at the two locations around the 19178 Industrial Blvd project
site that are shown in Figure C-1.
Figure C-1: Aerial image showing the noise monitoring locations.
C-1
Page 375 of 517ESI Engineering Elk River Capital Data Center Noise Control
The following items detail the monitoring conditions:
1. Existing HVAC – The existing building at the 19178 Industrial Blvd site has outdoor air
handling units, which were operational during the noise monitoring period.
2. Location 1 – One monitoring system was located near the southeast corner of the 19178
Industrial Blvd site (Location 1 in Figure C-1, above). The monitoring equipment set up
at Location 1 is shown in Figure C-2. The dominant noise source was traffic on County
Road 1.
Figure C-2: Photo looking south toward the Location 1 monitoring equipment.
3. Location 2 – A second monitoring system was located near the south property line of
nearby residential receivers to the northeast (Location 2 in Figure C-1). While there are
closer residential receiver locations to the project site, these locations were also closer
to nearby roadways. We did not want to manipulate the sound data with louder traffic
noise levels, and therefore selected a position that was farther from the roads to better
represent ambient noise levels in nearby residential backyards. The equipment was
placed along a public trail (see Figure C-2), and the microphone had direct line of site
to both County Road 1 and Upland St NW. The dominant noise source was traffic on
County Road 1.
C-2
Page 376 of 517ESI Engineering Elk River Capital Data Center Noise Control
Figure C-3: Photo looking north toward the Location 2 monitoring equipment.
4. Equipment Setup – The noise monitoring systems captured continuous noise levels
between the 7:00 AM hours from Sunday, June 14 to Monday, June 15, 2026. The noise
monitoring followed the State of Minnesota requirements and the MPCA guidelines. The
equipment logged hourly and one-second noise levels over a 24-hour period. The
system also made audio recordings at the beginning of each hour and whenever the
instantaneous level exceeded a set threshold.
The measured hourly noise level results at Locations 1 and 2 are provided in Tables C-1 and
C-2, respectively (see Attachments A and B, respectively, for additional data plots). Each table
allows for comparison of the noise level results to the applicable criteria from Section A, above,
and includes the weather conditions. For any measured hourly result that exceeded the criteria,
that value is shown in bold red text. Table C-1 compares the measured noise levels at the
NAC 3 receiver position to the applicable MPCA requirements. Table C-2 compares the results
to the criteria for an NAC 1 residential receiver, which includes the following for this project:
• Overall L10 (dBA) compared to the 65 dBA daytime and 55 dBA nighttime MPCA
requirements.
• Overall L50 (dBA) compared to the 60 dBA daytime and 50 dBA nighttime MPCA
requirements.
• Overall L90 (dBA) for information purposes only.
• Leq at 31.5 Hz (dB) compared to the 80 dB maximum design goal (not a requirement).
• Leq at 63 Hz (dB) compared to the 84 dB maximum design goal (not a requirement).
• Overall LCeq Minus Overall LAeq (dB) compared to the 20 dB maximum design goal (not a
requirement).

The following summarize the measurement results:
1. Based on a review of the audio recordings, the loudest noise events were caused by
traffic on County Road 1 and trains on the railroad tracks to the south of the project site.
2. Based on a review of the hourly noise level results at ⅓ octave band frequencies, traffic
produced the loudest levels in the 400 Hz to 2,000 Hz range. This noise was dominant
during both daytime and nighttime hours. There was also wind noise in the 2,000 Hz to
5,000 Hz range during most of the daytime hours. Other noise sources that had less
effect on the overall noise levels were bird and insect chirps.
3. Location 1 had L10 and L50 results that were all less than the limits for an NAC 3
receiver.
4. Location 2 had L10 and L50 results that were less than the limits for an NAC 1 residential
receiver during all daytime hours and most nighttime hours. However, the levels
exceeded the limits during the 4:00 AM, 5:00 AM, and 6:00 AM hours. Based on a review
of the weather conditions, the audio recordings, and the noise level results at ⅓ octave
band frequencies, the L10 exceedance during the 4:00 AM hour was caused by trains.
The L10 and L50 exceedances during the 5:00 AM and 6:00 AM hours were caused by a
combination of traffic on County Road 1 and trains.
In summary, the dominant noise source at the project site is traffic on County Road 1, with train
noise having more effect on the hourly levels during early morning hours. While most hours
had L10 and L50 noise levels that were less than the MPCA limits, the levels during early
morning hours at the residential receiver exceeded the limits due to increased train and traffic
noise.

D. EQUIPMENT NOISE ANALYSIS
Calculations were prepared to evaluate the new equipment noise levels within 1,000’ of the
19178 Industrial Blvd data center site. The following is a summary of design conditions used
in the calculations and the calculated results.
Design Conditions
The following were used as baseline conditions to evaluate new equipment noise at nearby
receivers:
1. MPCA noise requirements as listed in Table A-1 above. The primary limits that apply to
this project are the nighttime L50 limit of 50 dBA for NAC 1 residential receivers, and
the daytime/nighttime L50 limits of 60 dBA, 65 dBA, and 75 dBA for all other NAC 1, 2,
and 3 receivers, respectively.
2. Maximum project design goals for NAC 1 residential receivers of 80 dB at 31.5 Hz and
84 dB at 63 Hz, as well as maximum dBC – dBA levels of 20 dB.
3. Sherburne County GIS aerial images showing the relative locations of the 19178
Industrial Blvd data center site and neighboring receiver locations.
4. Topography lines from the MNTopo website aerial images.
5. Equipment site plan received May 21, 2026.
6. York performance report for the ten model YVFA0459, 550 nominal ton air-cooled screw
chillers (see Figure D-1). The top of the chillers are at 7’-11” above the ground. The
York report provided unit sound power levels at each octave band frequency from 63 Hz
to 8,000 Hz, which sum to an overall level of 105 dBA for the 100 % load, 101.4 °F
ambient temperature condition. Based on measurement data we have for similar
chillers, we assumed the chiller sound level at the 31.5 Hz octave band was equal to the
level at 63 Hz.

7. Cummins specification sheet for the ten 2,500 kW model DQKAN diesel generator sets
(see Figure D-2). Based on the sound data in the submittal from 31.5 Hz to 8,000 Hz,
each genset produces overall sound power levels of 128 dBA radiated from the unit, and
133 dBA at the open exhaust. Generator noise will radiate from the outdoor air intake
openings in the rooftop, the cooling air discharge openings on the east side of the
building, and the combustion exhaust pipes that penetrate the rooftop and point upward.

8. Nine receiver locations (Locations A through I, as shown in Figure D-3) were positioned
around the site to evaluate noise levels. Three locations were placed on the nearby
NAC 1 residential properties, two were on NAC 1 daytime educational properties,
another two were on NAC 2 business and restaurant properties, and the last two were
at the nearest NAC 3 industrial and street right-of-way properties.

9. The noise model calculations include the following settings:
a. Calculations use ANSI S12.627 standardized methods.
b. Buildings are acoustically reflective with only a 0.5 dB attenuation setting.
c. Ground is acoustically reflective with a 0 dB attenuation setting.
d. The meteorological factor is set at +2 dB.
e. Barriers (e.g., walls, buildings, topography, etc.) only provide noise reduction if
they block the line of site between the source and receiver positions.
f. Noise evaluated at each octave band frequency from 31.5 Hz to 8,000 Hz.
g. Maximum order of reflection set at 3 reflections.
The 3D rendering in Figure D-4 shows the source, building, and receiver inputs that were
included in the model. Individual sources were used for the generator intake and
combustion exhaust at the rooftop, and discharge at the east wall. Two sources were
used for each chiller to better represent sound across the long length of these units.

Noise Mitigation
The following provides a summary of the noise control components that will be included within
the data center design documents to reduce chiller and generator noise levels at neighboring
properties.
Ground-Level Chillers Option
If the chillers will be located in a new ground-level mechanical yard on the south side of the
existing building, a U-shaped barrier will be installed around the chillers to reduce noise levels
at neighboring properties. The following provide details about the barrier walls:
1. Height – The barrier walls will have a top elevation of 17’ relative to the ground (about
9’ taller than the chillers, which are about 8’ tall).
2. Air Gaps – There will not be any air gaps between the barrier walls and each other, the
existing building walls, or the ground, which would allow for sound leakage. Figure D-5
shows three-sided, U-shaped barrier walls around the chillers.
Figure D-5: Partial equipment plan showing the barrier wall locations.
3. Barrier Material – The barrier walls will have a minimum sound isolation rating (sound
transmission class, or STC8) of STC 25. A few material options that are typically
acceptable for outdoor use and can meet the STC 25 criterion are:
a. Minimum 22 gauge sheet metal.
b. Minimum ½” thick treated plywood or glulam wood panels.
c. Precast concrete panels, masonry units (CMU), or other masonry materials.
d. Minimum 4” thick foam-filled insulated metal panels.
8 Sound transmission class, or STC, is defined in ASTM standard C634-13 as, “a single-number rating calculated in
accordance with Classification E413 using values of sound transmission loss. It provides an estimate of the
performance of a partition in certain common sound insulation problems.” It is based on laboratory tests of wall
and floor/ceiling assemblies that serve as acoustical barriers, with higher values representing better insulation.
D-4
Page 383 of 517ESI Engineering Elk River Capital Data Center Noise Control
4. Sound Absorption – The sides of the three barrier walls that face the chiller yard will be
covered with a sound absorption treatment to reduce reflections toward the northeast
residences. The absorption treatment will not be installed on the exterior faces of the
existing building walls. The selected treatment will have a minimum sound absorption
rating (noise reduction coefficient, or NRC9) of NRC 0.90. The following are a few
product options that can be used to meet the criteria:
a. Manufactured exterior grade acoustical treatments can be applied to the hard
barrier wall surfaces, such as those available from MBI, Kinetics, and Sound Seal.
b. Minimum 2” thick mineral wool boards (such as those available from
Thermafiber, Rockwool, Johns Manville, and others) can be pinned to the hard
barrier wall surfaces. Mineral wool is regularly used for exterior applications
because it allows moisture to drain, is mostly unaffected by UV light, and is mold-
resistant. It will be covered with a protective facing (e.g., woven wire mesh,
welded wire mesh, expanded metal, or perforated metal) with a minimum 20%
open area to reduce damage and help hold the insulation in place.
Rooftop-Level Chillers Option
If the chillers will be located on the west rooftop of the existing building, barrier walls will be
installed on all four sides of the chillers to reduce noise levels at neighboring properties. The
following provide details about the barrier walls:
1. Height – The barrier walls on the north and east sides will have a top elevation of 12’
relative to the rooftop (about 4’ taller than the chillers, which are about 8’ tall) to reduce
noise at the more sensitive NAC 1 receivers to the northeast. The walls on the south
and west sides will have a top elevation of only 9’ relative to the rooftop to reduce noise
to the nearby NAC 2 and 3 receivers in these directions without increasing reflected
noise to the northeast.
2. Air Gaps – There will not be any air gaps between the barrier walls and each other, or
the rooftop, that would allow for direct line-of-sight between the chillers and
neighboring receiver locations.
3. Barrier Material – The barrier walls will have a minimum sound isolation rating of STC 25.
Generator Noise Attenuators.
4. Sound Absorption – This option does not require the application of sound absorption
treatments to reduce reflected noise from the barrier walls and meet the MPCA limits.
9 As defined in ASTM C634, “noise reduction coefficient, NRC [dimensionless], a single-number rating, the average,
rounded to the nearest 0.05, of the sound absorption coefficients of a material for the four one-third octave bands
at 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1000 Hz, and 2000 Hz, inclusive, measured according to the test method described in Test
Method C423.” Higher NRC values represent better sound absorption.
D-5

Generator Noise Attenuators
The following provide details for the sound attenuators that will be installed at each generator
outdoor air intake, cooling air discharge, and combustion exhaust outlet to reduce noise
transmission through these paths:
1. Intake and Discharge Path Silencers – Silencers will be installed at all outdoor air intake
and cooling air discharge openings. Figure D-6 shows silencers by Commercial
Acoustics that were built for generator noise control. Table D-1 shows the minimum
sound insertion loss that will be provided by the intake / discharge silencers. Silencers
by other manufacturers (e.g., IAC Acoustics, Kinetics Noise Control, VAW Systems,
Vibro-Acoustics, etc.) can also be considered.
Figure D-6: Commercial Acoustics photos showing generator noise control silencers.
Table D-1: Minimum Silencer Sound Insertion Loss
Minimum Sound Insertion Loss (dB) per 1/1 Octave Band Frequency (Hz)
Path 31.5 63 125 250 500 1k 2k 4k 8k
Intake/Discharge 0 7 12 17 20 20 20 15 10
Exhaust 10 20 30 30 30 25 25 20 10
2. Combustion Exhaust Silencers – Each generator will have a combustion exhaust silencer.
The selected silencer will provide the minimum sound insertion loss values that are
shown in Table D-1. The ‘Critical grade exhaust silencer’ that is listed under the
‘Generator set options and accessories’ section of the “Cummins specification sheet”
may provide the minimum sound insertion loss. Silencers by other manufacturers
(e.g., GT Silex, Harco, Miratech, etc.) can also be considered.

Calculation Results
Based on these conditions, calculations were prepared to evaluate the 19178 Industrial Blvd
data center equipment noise at neighboring receivers. Table D-2 provides a summary of the
overall calculation results at each receiver location compared to the MPCA requirements. The
results show the maximum levels that were calculated with the chillers either located on the
rooftop or at the ground-level mechanical yard. Figures D-7 through D-10 show noise contour
plots for the chillers only and chillers with one generator conditions. Each figure provides the
analysis results at all properties within 1000’ of the project site. The results show that both
the chiller and generator noise levels meet the MPCA limits at all neighboring properties.

Data Center means a facility used primarily for the storage, management, processing, and
transmission of digital data, which houses computer or network equipment, systems,
servers, appliances, and other associated components related to digital data operations.
The facility may also include air handlers, power generators, cooling or
temperature-control systems, utility substations, and other associated infrastructure
necessary for sustained operations.
(d) Conditional Uses. Conditional Uses in the I-1 district are as follows:
(5) Data Center, provided they meet the following standards:
a. The proposed Data Center facility and any accessory use or structure is
at least 750-feet from any residential structure, and at least 500-feet
from the property line of any residentially zoned property.
b. The total energy use of the Data Center facility shall not exceed 35 MW of
power.
c. The proposed Data Center facility is no larger than 75,000 SF in total size.
d. Water Use - Data Center facilities shall not utilize water for cooling
systems. Cooling systems shall utilize air‑based systems or advanced
technology that requires zero consumptive water use, and all liquid
cooled equipment must be designed to utilize a closed-loop system.
1. Annual domestic water use shall not exceed 200,000 gallons unless
approved by the City following verification that water is not used for
cooling.
2. Facilities shall install dedicated water meters and submit annual
water consumption reports.
3. Cooling systems shall not have any physical connection to a
municipal water system or a well.
4. The developer must provide an annual report showing the total water
used over the past year.
e. Noise - Noise from the operation of the proposed Data Center facility or
any accessory use must comply with the Minnesota Pollution Control
Agency (MPCA) noise standards as established in Minn. Rules Ch. 7030.
1. Prior to application, a noise study completed by a third-party engineer
must be submitted demonstrating that the operations of the Data
Center facility will comply with MPCA noise standards. The noise
study must include sufficient information to show:
Page 400 of 517
(a) Baseline noise levels in the area of the proposed Data Center,
including noise levels measured at all external perimeter property
lines.
(b) Expected daytime and nighttime noise levels upon operation,
including generator noise and other equipment noise, indoors and
outdoors at multiple distances and at the external perimeter
property lines.
(c) Sound level projections and modeling for multiple distances from
the Data Center facility.
(d) Specific recommended mitigation measures to be incorporated to
ensure compliance with the MPCA noise standards, and to
minimize disturbance caused by low-frequency noise and
vibrations.
(e) The study must include A-weighted (dBA), C-weighted (dBC) and
Z-weighted (dBZ) measurements, with full frequency spectra to
identify low-frequency and tonal components.
(f) A post construction compliance test, during operation, within six
months of beginning operation must be completed to verify the
actual sound levels and the effectiveness of constructed
mitigation measures. The test must utilize the same methodology
used for the initial noise study. If the review finds that post
construction noise exceeds the maximum permissible sound
levels at any external perimeter property boundaries or the
locations used during the initial noise study testing or mitigation
measures to address low-frequency noise or vibrations are
inadequate, the applicant shall be required to develop and submit
for review and approval, mitigation measures to bring noise levels
within acceptable limits. The work must be completed within 6
months of the date of review.
(g) The City may order an additional noise study once per year during
peak operation of the Data Center facility. The Data Center
operator must provide the results of the noise study, conducted
by a third-party engineer, to the City within 30 days of the request
by the City or show proof that they have contracted with a third-
party engineer, and the results will be available in a reasonable
amount of time.
i. Where any noise study identifies greater than maximum
permissible sound levels at any external perimeter property
Page 401 of 517
boundary, the City may, after reasonable notice and an
opportunity to cure the conditions contributing to the
exceedance, suspend or revoke the conditional use permit.
f. Backup Generators - Backup generators are restricted to only emergency
use when the primary source of electricity is interrupted or unavailable
and routine maintenance or readiness testing.
1. Routine testing must only occur during the hours of 8:00 am to 4:00
pm, Monday through Friday.
2. The City may require additional restrictions where testing creates
noise impacts on adjacent properties.
3. All generator systems must comply with applicable Minnesota
Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) and U.S. Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) emissions standards. Documentation of the review
must be submitted with the application.
4. If the MPCA or EPA determine that an environmental review is
necessary, it must be completed prior to submitting a Conditional
Use Permit Application.
5. On-site fuel storage for back-up power generators shall be subject to
the accessory structure setback and height limitations of the zoning
district and must be completely screened from view within the public
right-of-way. Such storage shall comply with all MPCA and State Fire
Marshal requirements, all other permits, testing and listing
requirements, and all applicable codes and standards such as NFPA
58.
g. Decommissioning - The applicant submits a decommissioning plan,
prepared by a qualified professional, outlining the estimated
decommissioning timeframe, costs, and procedures for safe shutdown,
removal of equipment, disposal or recycling of materials, and site
restoration.
1. Prior to issuance of a building permit, the applicant shall also provide
financial security sufficient to assure that decommissioning and
restoration of the Data Center site can be achieved by a third party in
the event that the applicant defaults in that obligation. Acceptable
forms of financial security include:

Item Description Reviewed by
Ordinance Amendment and Conditional Use Permit: Chris Leeseberg
Data Center, Michael Margulies, 19178 Industrial Cal Portner
Blvd NW Justin Dunford
Action Requested
Open the public hearing, receive public comment, and continue the hearing to July 6, 2026.
Background/Discussion
The applicant, Michael Margulies, representing Elk River Capital, LLC (Swervo Development), has submitted
two land use applications in support of a proposed data center at 19178 Industrial Blvd NW. The property is
located within the city's I-1 (Light Industrial) zoning district and is approximately 3.23 acres. The property
includes an existing 62,000 SF industrial building that operated as an injection molding facility until late last
year.
The applicant proposes modifying the existing building to house a data center. Proposed changes include
demolishing 5,000 SF of the building to improve the loading dock area and adding cooling equipment along the
south-west corner of the building. The data center proposes closed-loop cooling, which does not require
large volumes of water but instead uses glycol-based cooling equipment to keep the technology at a safe
operating temperature.
Submitted applications include an ordinance amendment to add data centers as an allowed use within the
zoning district and a Conditional Use Permit (CUP), anticipating that the use would require a CUP for zoning
approval.
Ordinance Amendment Application
As data centers are not currently allowed in the I-1 zoning district, an ordinance amendment is required. Data
centers meet the type of industry, tax base, and job/economic base for use in this district. This process allows
the city to proactively establish development standards for data centers anywhere within the district.
Examples of standards that may be included are limiting their size, maximum energy use, cooling system, noise
mitigation, and buffering requirements. The city is not required to add data centers as an allowed use, and the
amendment process is designed to give elected and appointed officials an opportunity to review the benefits
and challenges before making a final decision. Under current zoning codes, adding data centers to the I-1
district also allows their use in the I-2 zoning district.
Conditional Use Permit Application
The Elk River Vision
A welcoming community with revolutionary and spirited resourcefulness, exceptional service, and community
engagement that encourages and inspires prosperity
Page 405 of 517The CUP application allows the city to review a specific project on a specific site. The application is reviewed
against established standards within the ordinance. As a part of this process, the city would include specific
conditions of approval to address potentially negative impacts of a project. These conditions must directly
relate to the proposed project. With this particular application, city staff and city officials would be reviewing
the project against the standards established by the ordinance amendment and the CUP process.
Public Hearing
The city recognizes that data centers have raised important questions and concerns in our region and across
the state. The city is seeking input from the public as we review these applications. A public hearing is an
important step in this process, and staff would like to collect questions and comments from the community to
help inform the decision-making process. As data center technology is rapidly changing and can be technical at
times, staff will review the feedback alongside the specific details of these applications.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on May 26, 2026, and will address public comments from both
meetings (PC & CC) during the June 23, 2026, Planning Commission meeting. The developer is also
completing a noise study, which will be available for review in the June 23, 2026, Planning Commission packet
and after the meeting.
Upcoming Meetings
The Planning Commission will hold another public hearing on June 23, 2026. Staff expects the Commission to
make a recommendation on both the ordinance amendment and CUP applications on that date. However, the
statutory review timeline does allow an additional extension to July 28, 2026, if necessary.
With a Planning Commission recommendation on June 23, 2026, the City Council meeting on July 6, 2026,
would be the first opportunity for a decision to approve or deny the applications.
Financial Impact
None.
Mission/Policy/Goal
Appropriately govern in an ever-changing environment.

Page 406 of 517Page 407 of 517 19178 Industrial Blvd NW – Conditional Use Permit Narrative
Applicant seeks a Conditional Use Permit under Section 30-651 et. seq. of the Elk River
City Code to allow 19178 Industrial Blvd NW (the “Property”) to be used as a data center (the
“Proposed Use”).
Property Description and Use. The Property is a 3.223 acre parcel of land currently
improved with two connected one-story concrete block and metal sided buildings with a total
foundation area of 63,190 square feet. The buildings were constructed in phases during the
period 1978-1997. The Property is in an entirely industrial area of the City and there are no
residential properties located within 500 feet of any boundary of the Property. It has been used
for industrial and manufacturing purposes since 1978.
Zoning Status. The Property is currently zoned L-1 (Light Industrial). By separate
application, Applicant is seeking to amend the Elk River City Code Section 30-1293(d) to add
data center use as a conditional use in the L-1 (Light Industrial) Zoning District.
Exterior Modifications. Applicant does not intend to make any modifications to the
exterior modifications to the exterior of the buildings or to the site except to demolish
approximately 5,000 square feet of the building to create a more efficient loading dock area.
Proposed Use. The Proposed Use is a 58,000 square foot data center to be leased to one
or more data center operators.
Employment. The Proposed Use will create approximately 100 construction jobs during
the period of construction for repurposing the building. The construction will take approximately
six to nine months. Repurposing construction will commence in Summer, 2026.
Upon commencement of operations, the Proposed Use will employ approximately 40
persons divided among three eight-hour working shifts. It is expected that no shift will have
more than ten employees on site.
Parking. The Property currently has 72 parking stalls. City Code does not have a specific
parking requirement relative to data centers. City staff suggests that Elk River City Code Section
30-903(11) (Warehouse/Manufacturing) and specifically Section 30-903(11)(a) provides the best
guidance for parking for this use.
Section 30-903(11)(a) requires the following parking:
“… one parking space for each two employees on the major shift or one parking
space for each 2,000 square feet of floor area, whichever is greater, plus one space for
each company motor vehicle when customarily kept on the premises.”
Page 408 of 517 The likely maximum number of employees during the major shift is 10, thereby
requiring 20 parking spaces. Alternatively, assuming approximately 58,900 square feet of
floor area, the parking requirement would be 29 spaces. Therefore, current available
parking is more than double the required parking.
Satisfaction of Conditional Use Permit Requirements. Elk River City Code
Section 30-654 sets forth the standards that must be met in order for a Conditional Use
Permit to be issued. The Property and the Proposed Use satisfy all of the required
standards. Specifically, the Proposed Use:
1. Will not endanger, injure or detrimentally affect the use and enjoyment of
other property in the immediate vicinity or the public health, safety,
morals, comfort, convenience or general welfare of the neighborhood or
the City;
2. Is consistent with the Elk River Comprehensive Plan;
3. Will not impede the normal and orderly development and improvement of
surrounding vacant property;
4. Will be served adequately by and will not adversely affect essential public
facilities and services including streets, police and fire protection,
drainage, refuse disposal, water and sewer systems, parks and schools; and
will not, in particular, create traffic congestion or interference with traffic
on adjacent and neighboring public thoroughfares;
5. Will not involve uses, activities, processes, materials, equipment and
conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons or property
because of excessive traffic, noise, smoke, fumes, glare, odors, dust or
vibrations;
6. Will not result in the destruction, loss or damage of a natural, scenic or
historic feature of major importance; and
7. Will fully comply with all other requirements of this Code, including any
applicable requirements and standards for the issuance of a license or
permit to establish and operate the proposed use in the city

NO data center
From Hannah Lubinski
Date Wed 6/3/2026 9:53 PM
To Zachary Carlton <zcarlton@ElkRiverMN.gov>
You don't often get email from Learn why this is important
Zack,
I’m emailing in reference to the data center proposal in Elk River. I urge you to NOT move it
forward. It will bring zero net positive benefit to the community, in fact it will harm the
community.
No one wants data centers in their community. We vote for people who listen to those in the
community. This should be an easy NO to scrap the data center proposal and put in something
else that would actually benefit the community.
Please research negative impacts of data centers, including increased land temperatures
around the data centers, childhood cancer rates increasing, obnoxious sound levels, bright
lights, and other factors. No one wants data centers in their neighborhood or places they visit
frequently. I understand this isn’t a hyperscale data center and maybe some of what I
mentioned above isn’t as aggressively applicable but it’s applicable enough to make this an
easy decision to say NO DATA CENTER. Especially since it’s by an elementary school. Children
and their health and safety are important.
Thanks for your time,
Hannah Lubinski

Comments I am not okay with a data center coming to my community. It is
in no way good for us - the amount of energy and water they
use, the probability of pollution to the Mississippi, the
ramifications of our wildlife, the noise of pollution and the costs
to all of us tax payers living here (increased energy/water
costs) How could the city think this is a good idea? This gives
the vibe that pockets are being lined and the health of the
community is for sale.

I'm a concerned paying taxpayer, that lives in Elk River and I am completely against the data
center. Has there been any thought about the resources that will be taken from the community,
not just the quick high you will receive for the tiny bit of time it's constructed? We have lived
here almost 13 years and in that time, have seen the taxes continue to climb, very, very high.
We already have no choice for garbage or Internet. I'm not sure what the point of this data
center would be. This city used to a place I was excited about, and unfortunately now, we are
counting down the months until we can leave Elk River has changed so much, it's no longer the
Elk River that used to be. I'm also fighting to help save the Boundary Waters. So please, unless
you have something outside of the quick high of a financial kickback, stop this madness.
Very concerned resident,

Hello Elk river
I strongly appeal you to block development of data centers - for the environmental impacts including
water, energy, and biodiversity. The land belongs to people not allowing large corporates to come in and
use all resources and forever change the land
I work in the environmental industry and while they do siting and tests and comply with legal
requirements there is still too much unknown impact and negative impact that comes into the
community. It does not bring more jobs or enough positive value to allow this.
Thanks

You don't often get email from Learn why this is important
To Zack Carlton,
I read with much dismay and horror that there is a planned data center to be put at19178
Industrial Blvd. NW.
This is beyond unacceptable for many reasons :
1. Known excess water usage by these unnecessary facilities which unfairly depletes the local
ground water supplies. There are many households who rely on well water. Water pressure already
dips during spring and summer due to local farms need for water. Contrary to some reports, the
groundwater in the area is not aok fine and dandy. The water pressure is already an issue due to
the continued greed driven massive overdevelopment projects.
What do we do when our wells run dry? At this point, I am looking for an attorney to sue the City of
Elk River, Sherburne County and anyone else responsible for this problem when the inevitable does
happen as did in the Coon Rapids/Blaine area.
2. The well known drain on power sources by data centers. Across the board it always raises
electricity bills. I do not think that the rightful, legal constituents of Elk River can afford this. Nor,
should they.
3. The pollution that data centers release as well as the constant drone that has been
scientifically linked to health issues for the victims in the surrounding areas. Another source of
a large lawsuit.
No, they do not ultimately provide enough jobs to legitimize the massive problems and
destruction of quality of life that they always cause.
So, please, for once, put the rightful constituents of Elk River before any more greed driven
unnecessities such as this.
Thank You,
Kathee

Comments I do not want a data center in elk river. Costs are very high in
sherburne county already. This noisy air pollution data center
will suck up to 100,000 houses worth of energy a month. You
might get $ up front but seems to be the consensus that the city
after awhile gets stuck with the cost. Do just a fraction of
research and you will see that this is a bad thing.
Environmentally, with noise and air pollution. That should be a
big NO right there. Plus not like it will bring in jobs once building
is built they only staff around 20 people. Very few local. I know
I’m not the only one. I’m saying NO to data centers
Thanks and remember to use your conscious. If it feels wrong it
probably is wrong.

Hello,
My name is Stephanie Schultz and I’ve had the pleasure of living in Elk River for three years
now. My husband and two daughters have enjoyed our neighborhood, amenities the city has to
offer, and the smaller town feel while still having necessities close by.
It will be of great disappointment that the city would be allowing data centers into our
community. A simple google search demonstrates the negative effects of them to towns, cities,
and states. As someone with two small children, I genuinely fear for the state of our planet as
these are becoming more popular . We are currently paying astronomical fees in property taxes
and utilities to live in ER and the guarantee for them to increase is unacceptable.
Data centers have been shown to increase local taxes/utilities cost, deplete water sources, and
are giving off emissions (electromagnetic) that have been shown to have harmful affects on
people and animals.
As someone who is employed and works remotely, my concern for them also depleting our
energy grid is also of great concern. Our environment is already at such a risk for warming and
seasons changing, adding these centers to our state and our cities would only increase that as
they have been shown to increase temperatures, creating “heat islands”.
Our community is not the only one who is against these centers. Monticello is also against
having them and as a citizen of Minnesota, I stand with them fully.
The value these centers will add to our community is minimal if none. I do not support the
building of data centers into Elk River and will not be supportive of any government official who
is supporting this change.
The negative impacts it will have on water supply, power grids, health of people/animals,
environmental impacts (heating, pollution, carbon emissions, etc) as well as noise and thermal
pollution would be devastating to our community for generations to come.
Let’s not think about the current state of the world, but think about our future generations and
doing better for them. Ai is convenient and easy, but it’s not the solution or answer. We are
against these data centers. We will not welcome them into our community. And anyone who
does so is incredibly foolish and ignorant.

RE: Written Public Comment — Proposed Data Center, 19178 Industrial
Boulevard, Elk River Capital LLC — June 15, 2026 Public Hearing
Dear Planning Commission and City Council Members,
I am a 34-year Elk River resident and nature photographer submitting this
written public comment for the official record regarding the proposed data
center at 19178 Industrial Boulevard by Elk River Capital LLC. I respectfully
request that the following concerns be addressed before any vote is taken.
1. The Zoning Amendment Sets a Permanent Precedent
This proposal requires permanently amending Elk River's zoning ordinance to
add data centers as an officially allowed use under Light Industrial (L-1)
zoning. This is not a decision about one building - it is a decision that would
open every Light Industrial parcel in Elk River to data center development,
permanently. A 33-megawatt AI data center operating 24 hours a day,
consuming the power of a small city, and generating continuous industrial
noise at a river confluence does not meet any reasonable definition of light
industrial use. The city should establish specific, enforceable standards for data
centers before amending its zoning ordinance - not after.
2. Minnesota Law May Apply — Has It Been Evaluated?
Minnesota HF 16, passed in 2025, specifically addresses data center water
impacts and prohibits permit approval if a facility will cause adverse impacts to
watershed health. The Elk River watershed is located within the Source Water
Protection Area for both Minneapolis and St. Paul - our river flows into the
Mississippi approximately 25 miles upstream from the drinking water intakes
for both cities. I respectfully ask: has HF 16 been formally evaluated in relation
to this proposal? Has the Minnesota Pollution Control Agency been notified?
3. Required Agency Consultations
Page 443 of 517Friends of the Mississippi River has an active state-funded habitat restoration
project at Bailey Point Nature Preserve - directly at our confluence. The
Mississippi River Islands Scientific and Natural Area, designated by the
Minnesota DNR in 1979, sits directly downstream. Within 30 miles of Elk
River there are an estimated 40 to 60 active bald eagle nests, including up to 22
at the Sherburne National Wildlife Refuge alone. Research published in March
2026 documents that chronic industrial noise - the kind generated 24/7 by data
center cooling systems - can shrink a hunting eagle's listening area by 90
percent, causing raptors to abandon otherwise suitable habitat.
Have the Friends of the Mississippi River, the Sherburne Soil and Water
Conservation District, and the Minnesota DNR been formally consulted
regarding the environmental impacts of this proposal?
4. Existing Non-Compliance Must Be Addressed
City staff have confirmed that Elk River's existing data centers are not in
compliance with current city zoning - they operate as grandfathered legal non-
conforming uses. Before expanding data center use through a permanent
zoning amendment, the city should address this existing non-compliance and
establish clear, enforceable standards that protect residents, wildlife, and our
watershed.
5. An Unanswered Question
Public comments have raised questions regarding reports of an additional data
center project in Elk River. I respectfully request that the city clarify whether
any additional data center facilities are currently under construction or under
review, where they are located, and what public review process was followed.
Residents deserve a transparent answer before July 6.
In Conclusion
I am not opposed to responsible development. I am asking that this decision be
made with full transparency, full legal compliance, and full consideration of the
environmental and community impacts - including those that extend beyond
Elk River's city limits to our shared watershed and wildlife corridor.
The Elk River motto is "Powered by Nature." I ask the city to govern
accordingly.

You don't often get email from . Learn why this is important
Information I have found is that residents in Minnesota and around the country tend to raise the same
concerns when data centers are proposed:
Electrical demand and whether large facilities could affect future power costs or require new
transmission infrastructure.
Noise from cooling equipment, rooftop chillers, and backup generators.
Water consumption for cooling systems
Limited permanent employment compared with the size of the facility.
Lack of transparency about who the ultimate operator or customer is.
Questions about tax benefits versus community benefits.
At a minimum, let's put a moratorium on this data center until we have more
concrete facts and the taxpayers are comfortable with the idea. There shouldn't be a
rush to push this action through the process. Let's take our time and get this done right.
Thank you for your time, see you Monday night!

Hello,
Please see below my comment that I wish to submit regarding Item 7.4 on the agenda for the City
Council meeting on 6/15/2026.
Thank you,

Elk River City Council Meeting
June 15th, 2026 6:00pm CT
Public comment in response to:
Item 7.4: Ordinance Amendment and Conditional Use Permit: Data Center, Michael Margulies, 19178
Industrial Blvd NW
Dear City Council Members,
My name is Sophia Kruger; I reside at 22220 Monroe Street NW, Elk River, 55330. I am writing in
opposition to the proposal requested by Michael Margulies to change the city ordinance to allow for
a proposed data center at 19178 Industrial Blvd NW. I ask that the Council take this request seriously
and oppose this ordinance amendment as well.
As a public health professional, I'm opposed to this proposed ordinance change because data centers
introduce air, water, and noise pollution that will harm the environment and the health of Elk River
residents, let alone increase financial strain on residents as electricity rates increase to meet the
demand of these buildings.
Page 447 of 517While it's true that there is not enough empirical research yet on the direct adverse health effects of
data centers--that is to say, we don't know if building a data center 58,000 square feet in size near
residences and schools will directly cause a spike in the rate of new asthma cases or new anxiety
diagnoses -- we can certainly paint ourselves a picture based on what we do know so far.
We know that data centers emit noise at levels around 96 decibels, which is above the 85 decibel
threshold considered harmful for our hearing. Persistent noise levels below that threshold have even
been shown to cause disturbances among wildlife (and in humans). That noise is emitted constantly,
day in, day out, and people who live nearby data centers have reported increased anxiety,
headaches/migraines, and sleep disturbances.
While it looks good on paper to build a data center with a closed loop cooling system as it's said to
draw in less water than other evaporative cooling systems, the reality is that that water consumption is
just moved off site. Sure, the building doesn't draw in as much water, but data centers that use this
mechanism for cooling require 10-40% more electricity than traditional evaporative cooling systems,
meaning that thermoelectric and/or natural gas plants that generate the power our grid needs will
consume even more freshwater to meet the data center's demand. As that demand increases,
residents can expect their electricity prices to increase as utilities have to contend with increased strain
on their grid too.
We also know that this cooling technology has the potential to introduce chemicals--like antifreeze,
antimicrobials, and nitrates--at concentrations above their regulated limits into surface water,
potentially reaching drinking water sources. This is because while the cooling technology uses less
water, it cycles through that water with the occasional release of some used water to make way for
new water. That released water, that had been cycling through the cooling systems building up the
concentration of chemicals applied to prevent harm to the server equipment, is released as surface
water that can run off into ground water sources. Depending on the amount of released water and the
concentration of these contaminants, we could be negatively affecting aquatic species downstream of
this data center and potentially polluting drinking water sources.
We also know that data centers often use diesel or natural gas generators on-site. These generators
emit nitrogen dioxide and other fine particulate matter that can negatively affect the air quality and
have been linked with increases in asthma diagnoses and other respiratory and cardiovascular health
conditions. This data center is proposed right across the road from Meadowvale Elementary and within
earshot of surrounding neighborhoods - I am not okay with exposing children and families to more
greenhouse gases that may harm their respiratory health.
With what we do know right now about the harmful impacts of data centers, we should not take
lightly the request by applicants to approve zoning for data centers - and this data center specifically -
in our city. Approving this ordinance would open the floodgates - who's to say how many more data
centers could be developed in our town? And how will those health effects compound? How much
strain on local water sources will there be if future data centers are built? Can our electrical grid keep
up if more centers come to town?
There are far too many questions that we as constituents deserve answers and not only this, Michael
Margulies and Ned Abdul are questionable characters. I would not trust a disbarred, formerly
imprisoned, lawyer (Margulies) and a developer who has been investigated by the FBI and faced fraud
convictions (Abdul); they certainly do not seem like business persons the City and its residents should
trust with the development of a project that is so controversial. In the City's Planning Commission
Page 448 of 517meeting on May 26th, neither could guarantee that this proposed data center would not be used for
AI in the future, and neither could say what company they'd seek to lease their building.
I ask the planning commission to seriously take these concerns into consideration before making a
decision on the applicant's request to amend city zoning ordinances to allow for inclusion of data
centers.
Thank you.

Re: Ordinance Amendment OA 26-02 — Data Centers as a Conditional Use in I-1 and I-2
Districts
Dear Chair, Commissioners, Mayor, and Council Members,
I've spoken at every public hearing on this application since it was introduced, and I'm writing
now because OA 26-02 is being given attention in its own right, separate from the site-specific
CUP request. I appreciate that the city separated the two on the schedule, with the ordinance
amendment taking up first — that gives this body room to focus on OA 26-02 without the
pressure of a concurrent site decision, and I think that's the right way to handle it. The ordinance
amendment will outlive this particular project. Whatever happens with 19178 Industrial
Boulevard, OA 26-02 sets the standard for every data center that comes to Elk River after it —
in any I-1 or I-2 zone citywide.
I want to be upfront about what I'm asking for: a moratorium on OA 26-02, paired with a task
force charged with producing comprehensive, specific conditions before any ordinance
amendment is adopted. I don't think that's an extreme position. As of this spring, roughly 70
cities, counties, and states across the country had active data center moratoriums in place —
most lasting six months to a year, a few longer — specifically to let local policy catch up with this
technology before locking in a standard. I'd rather Elk River take that same approach now than
discover the gaps later, after the standard is adopted.
Why I think this request is premature
To be clear about what's actually in front of you: OA 26-02 is a request to add data centers as a
conditional use to the I-1 and I-2 use tables. It is not draft ordinance language with specific
standards attached. That distinction matters. Adding the use category now and leaving the
conditions — noise limits, water and discharge standards, infrastructure cost allocation,
setbacks — to be worked out later, case by case, is itself the gap I'm asking you to close before
adoption, not after.
It also matters because a modern AI-era data center is not the same animal as the data centers
most existing zoning frameworks were written to anticipate. Power density per square foot has
increased substantially. Cooling methods have shifted from simple air handling toward
closed-loop and liquid systems with their own lifecycle and discharge characteristics. And the
pace at which these projects move from application to construction has consistently outrun the
pace at which cities can write standards to govern them. Elk River is being asked to create a
Page 450 of 517permanent, citywide use category at the same time it's processing a live application under that
category — not the sequence I'd expect a new, unfamiliar use type to be handled: standards
first, then applications, not concurrently.
I'd ask the Commission and Council to think comprehensively about the full range of inputs and
outputs a facility like this brings, not just the ones that happen to be the loudest at this stage of
the process:
- Noise. Not just whether a peak decibel level clears a threshold, but the chronic, continuous,
often tonal character of mechanical noise from a facility that runs nights, weekends, and
holidays indefinitely. The kind we’re hearing about frequently in the news. The kind the attached
research will address in some detail.
- Water. Cooling water consumption, and — separately — the full lifecycle of closed-loop
systems: makeup water needs, blowdown discharge, water treatment chemistry, and what
happens to that water over the life of the system, not just at startup.
- Thermal plume. Waste heat rejected to the atmosphere or to surface water, and what that
does to the immediate microclimate or receiving water body over time.
- Electrical grid demand and cost-shifting. Who pays for the infrastructure a large new load
requires, and whether those costs land on the developer or get distributed across the existing
ratepayer base. I think ERMU has put some effort into this, but it deserves detailed review and
explicit conditions.
- Backup generator emissions. Diesel generators sized for 100% generation in a 10-megawatt
or larger facility, and what their testing and emergency run schedules mean for nearby air
quality.
- Construction and truck traffic. The volume and duration of heavy truck traffic during
build-out, separate from the comparatively low traffic the facility generates once operational.
- Property value effects. What happens to home and business values for immediate neighbors
when an industrial use of this scale and duration moves in next door.
None of these are exotic concerns. They're the ordinary list of questions any conditional use
ordinance should answer before, not after, it's adopted. Right now, OA 26-02 doesn't answer
them.
Why I think a moratorium and task force is the right tool
I went looking for examples of cities that have done this well — that captured the economic
benefit of hosting a data center without adversely affecting the quality of life of their neighbors
and nearby businesses. I didn't find one I could point to with confidence. What I found instead
was a substantial body of forward-looking guidance from planners, consultants, and developers
about what a city should do, and a separate, growing body of reporting from residents currently
living next to data centers describing dust, noise, and disrupted sleep that the "should do"
literature hadn't prevented. I also looked specifically for community benefit agreements with
documented, post-construction outcomes — proof that the commitments made on paper held up
Page 451 of 517once the facility was running — and didn't find that either. What exists are recently signed
agreements and unproven frameworks, not track records.
I raise that not to suggest this can't be done well, but to suggest that nobody — including Elk
River — currently has a reliable model to copy. That argues for slowing down and building the
standard deliberately, with the right people in the room, rather than adopting language now and
hoping it holds up against the next application.
Can we confidently say at what distance neighbors are not adversely impacted by noise,
emissions, and thermal plume? I haven't found clear answers yet, and I don't think that question
should remain unanswered when the ordinance is adopted.
A task force with broad representation — residents, industrial-zone business owners and
workers, ERMU, city staff, and an outside consultant familiar with the specific demands and
effects of modern data center equipment — could do the work the current timeline doesn't allow:
specific, measurable conditions on noise, water, thermal discharge, infrastructure cost
allocation, and emissions, instead of general language that leaves those questions to be
litigated case by case. I'd also ask the task force to study whether OA 26-02 should include a
citywide cap on total data center load or on the number of facilities permitted, rather than
treating each application as if it were the only one the grid, water system, and neighbors will
ever have to absorb. I'd tie the moratorium to that task force's work product, not to a fixed
calendar date — it lifts when the report is in hand, not before.
It's also worth noting that the city is not a passive party here. Elk River's own economic
development website lists data centers as a target industry, citing reliable electrical power, water
capacity, and electrical reliability as reasons the city is a desirable location for them. By
observation, the city is actively recruiting for this industry. What that page doesn't address —
and what OA 26-02 in its current form doesn't address either — is where within the city these
facilities belong, under what conditions, and with what protections for the people who will live
and work next to them. If Elk River is going to market itself for this industry, it owes its residents
the comprehensive standard that marketing implies, not just the invitation.
I want to be clear that none of this is a position on whether Elk River should host more data
centers at all. I think the goal is straightforward: capture the economic benefit this industry can
offer without exporting the cost of doing so to the neighbors of the site. I don't think that's an
unreasonable thing to ask the ordinance to guarantee before it's adopted, rather than after.
I’m including a list of questions that remain unanswered about the Elk River Capital LLC project.
I would appreciate these questions being addressed in preparation for the CUP proceedings.
Page 452 of 517I've also enclosed printed research on noise and vibration impacts that I'd ask the Commission
and Council to review as part of this record. For additional background and documentation
related to this application, I maintain elkriverdatacenter.com as a public-interest resource; it's
referenced here only as a source, not as an extension of this letter's argument, which is mine
alone.
Thank you for the time and attention you've given this process. I'm glad to discuss any of this
further and look forward to the continued hearing on June 23.
Respectfully,

Data Center Noise: What It Is and
Why the Standard Does Not Capture
It
June 15, 2026 · updated June 15, 2026 · 23 min
TL;DR
Data centers emit constant low-frequency noise that is structurally different from other industrial sources —
tonal, continuous, and resistant to conventional barrier mitigation. Minnesota’s applicable noise standard
measures sound in a way that systematically underweights the frequency range most associated with data
center complaints: in documented cases, facilities measured at 40 to 59 dB(A) on residential property —
within applicable limits — while neighbors reported sleep disruption, difficulty concentrating, and avoidance
of outdoor spaces.
What Data Center Noise Is and Why It Differs
from Other Industrial Sources
Primary noise sources
Data center noise originates from three systems. Their acoustic character differs significantly.
Air-cooled chillers are the dominant external noise source for data centers that use air-cooled heat
rejection — one common approach for facilities that do not use cooling towers or water-side economizers.
Air-cooled chillers require large axial fans to reject heat continuously.1 Those fans produce tonal noise —
sound concentrated at specific frequencies — driven by blade-pass frequency: the rate at which each
blade passes a fixed point. According to INVC, a commercial noise remediation consultancy, the blade-
pass tones generated by chiller fans are caused by aerodynamic interactions of the fan impellers and
concentrate in the low-frequency range, typically propagating substantial distances from the site.1
Analysis: The degree of tonal character depends on equipment specifications. Variable-frequency drive
(VFD) fans spread blade-pass energy across a band of frequencies rather than concentrating it at a fixed
tone, reducing tonal character relative to fixed-speed fans. Whether specific equipment will produce
problematic tonal noise varies by specification, which is why spectral analysis of the actual equipment
Page 456 of 517specified is more informative than dB(A) measurement alone for evaluating tonal character. The World
Health Organization has concluded that A-weighted measurement systematically underweights low-
frequency noise content where it is prominent, recommending C-weighting for health effects assessment in
such cases.2 This tonal character is what distinguishes chiller noise from broadband industrial noise.
Diesel generators are standard equipment in data centers as backup power for critical load. Diesel
generators produce low-frequency noise at their engine firing frequency during both routine load testing,
which is required under National Fire Protection Association Standard 110 (NFPA 110), and during actual
power outages.3 Generator exhaust systems dominate low-frequency noise output in the range of
approximately 31.5 to 250 Hz, with tonal components at the engine firing frequency and its harmonics —
typically in the range of 75 to 90 Hz for standard 4-stroke diesel generators operating at 1500 to 1800
RPM.4 NFPA 110 requires monthly 30-minute operational tests at a minimum of 30% of nameplate kW
rating; if a generator does not reach that threshold during monthly testing, an annual supplemental load
bank test is triggered, and Level 1 systems require a comprehensive test every 36 months.3 Whether
generator test events comply with applicable noise limits at nearby receivers, and whether a conditional
use permit addresses the timing and frequency of such testing, are questions a noise study scope should
explicitly cover.
Server and rack cooling fans operate internally; though internal noise levels in operational data centers
commonly reach 90 dB(A) near server areas,5 the building envelope attenuates this substantially before it
reaches any external receiver, making server fans less relevant to external community noise than chiller
and generator sources.
What makes this noise different
Two properties of data center noise distinguish it from most other industrial sources that zoning and noise
regulations were designed to address.
Tonal character. Most regulated industrial noise — manufacturing equipment, aggregate operations, truck
traffic — is broadband: acoustic energy spread across many frequencies. Chiller fans and diesel
generators produce tonal noise: energy concentrated at discrete frequencies. The noise concern from low-
frequency tonal sources is not primarily peak annoyance in the way measured by short-duration listening
tests.6 The concern is instead chronic exposure: research on low-frequency noise exposure indicates that
because tonal noise is predictable and repetitive, habituation is incomplete, and sleep disturbance and
related effects may persist at exposure levels that would not produce acute complaints — though the
epidemiological evidence on this point remains limited in scope.7 2 Low-frequency tones also penetrate
building walls and conventional acoustic barriers more effectively than higher-frequency sound. Beginning
in April 2023, Williams County, North Dakota officials began receiving noise complaints from residents
surrounding the Atlas Power Data Center west of Williston — a high-performance computing and
cryptocurrency mining facility — shortly after it became operational.8 The company installed an acoustic
barrier as mitigation; complaints continued, and in 2023 residents filed a civil lawsuit citing excessive
Page 457 of 517noise, property value impacts, and quality-of-life harms.9 A monetary settlement was reached in 2026.9
According to INVC’s account of the case — a vendor source — the barrier cost approximately $5 million.10
Analysis: INVC attributes the barrier’s failure to the physics of low-frequency tonal noise from cooling fans,
which cannot be effectively attenuated by conventional barriers; the Atlas Power facility differs from a
colocation data center in operational profile and scale, but the acoustic mechanism implicated — low-
frequency blade-pass tones from air-cooled cooling fans — is common to facilities relying on air-cooled
heat rejection regardless of workload type. The frequency-dependence of barrier insertion loss is well
established in acoustic engineering: barriers provide substantially less attenuation at low frequencies
where sound wavelengths are long relative to barrier dimensions.11
Continuous operation. Unlike manufacturing, construction, or most other industrial uses, data centers
have no operating hours, no seasonal shutdown, and no production cycles. A data center operates
continuously once commissioned.12 Community complaints about data center noise tend to focus on
continuity of exposure more than on peak decibel levels.13
A noise source that operates continuously overnight presents a different exposure profile than one with
higher peak levels but limited to daytime hours: ambient noise levels drop at night, making the same
source more perceptible and more disruptive to sleep at lower absolute levels.14 15
The Applicable Standard and Its Structural
Limitations
How Minnesota Rule 7030 works
Minnesota Rule 7030 is the applicable state noise standard. It is a receiver-based standard: the noise limit
that applies depends on the land use at the location of the person or property receiving the sound, not on
the zoning of the source property.16 Rule 7030 establishes minimum state standards; a municipality may
impose more stringent requirements through conditional use permit conditions or local ordinance under its
land use authority.
The rule establishes four Noise Area Classifications (NAC). Applicable limits under Rule 7030.0040,
Subpart 2 for the three most commonly relevant categories:
Day Day Night Night
NAC Land Use
L50 L10 L50 L10
Residential, schools, medical,
1 60 65 50 55
religious, educational services
Page 458 of 517 Day Day Night Night
NAC Land Use

Commercial, retail, parks,
2 65 70 65 70
professional services
Manufacturing, utilities,
3 75 80 75 80
communication, all other
4 Undeveloped land, water areas None None None None
Daytime is defined as 7:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. Nighttime is 10:00 p.m. to 7:00 a.m.17 L10 is the sound level
exceeded 10 percent of the time during a one-hour survey.18
For any proposed data center, the relevant question is what land uses exist in the surrounding area and at
what distances. Schools, residences, medical facilities, and places of worship are all NAC 1 receivers
under Rule 7030.0050.19 At any NAC 1 receiver, both nighttime limits must be satisfied simultaneously:
L50 50 dB(A) and L10 55 dB(A). A measurement showing compliance on L10 alone without reporting L50
does not establish full compliance with Rule 7030.
Note: Rule 7030.0050, Subpart 3(A) provides that NAC 1 daytime standards may be applied during
nighttime hours if the land use does not include overnight lodging.20 Schools are NAC 1 receivers but
typically do not include overnight lodging; where this exception applies, it would relax the nighttime limits at
a school receptor to L50 60 dB(A) and L10 65 dB(A) — the daytime NAC 1 standards. Whether this
exception or Subparts 3(B) or 3(C) apply at any given receptor depends on building construction and land
use present, and should be addressed explicitly in noise study scope.
The A-weighting problem
Rule 7030 mandates measurement in A-weighted decibels, dB(A), through its incorporation of American
National Standards Institute standard S1.4-1983 (ANSI S1.4-1983) by reference.21 A-weighting is a
frequency filter applied to sound level measurements to approximate human hearing sensitivity: the human
ear is less sensitive to low frequencies at moderate sound levels, so A-weighting progressively attenuates
low-frequency content before it is recorded in the measurement.
The practical effect for data center noise: A-weighting applies approximately 26 dB of attenuation at 63 Hz,
and more than 40 dB of attenuation below 20 Hz, relative to mid-frequency content.22 Analysis: Chiller fan
blade-pass tones typically concentrate below 250 Hz, varying by equipment; this range receives the
heaviest A-weighting attenuation, meaning it contributes minimally to a dB(A) compliance reading even
when present at levels sufficient to generate complaints.
Larson Davis, a noise monitoring equipment manufacturer, notes that low-frequency humming “doesn’t
contribute much to A-weighted noise levels but is often the source of complaints” — a facility can satisfy
Page 459 of 517Rule 7030’s dB(A) requirement while generating tonal low-frequency content that A-weighted
measurement systematically underweights.23
This is a structural property of the measurement standard, not a function of facility size. In the context of
assessing health effects from low-frequency noise, the World Health Organization concluded in its 1999
community noise guidelines — a foundational reference that predates the current data center proliferation
but whose low-frequency findings have not been revised in subsequent WHO guidance — that “since A-
weighting underestimates the sound pressure level of noise with low-frequency components, a better
assessment of health effects would be to use C-weighting” and that “when prominent low frequency
components are present, noise measures based on A-weighting are inappropriate.”2 Rule 7030 requires
neither C-weighting nor any supplemental low-frequency measurement.
Documented consequence: residents near data centers in Northern Virginia’s Prince William County
reported persistent noise complaints while measured levels on residential property were 40 to 59 dB(A) —
within applicable limits — with neighbors reporting sleep disruption, difficulty concentrating, and avoidance
of outdoor spaces.24
What Rule 7030 does not require
Minnesota Rule 7030 contains no requirement for:
C-weighted measurement. C-weighting attenuates low frequencies much less aggressively than A-
weighting, making it more sensitive to the low-frequency range where chiller fan blade-pass tones
concentrate. The World Health Organization recommends C-weighting specifically for noise with
prominent low-frequency components.2 Independent acoustic engineers and some jurisdictions have
identified C-weighted measurement or octave-band spectral limits as necessary to capture the noise
character of data center cooling equipment; A-weighted limits alone have in documented cases failed to
address community complaints that persisted within compliance.25
G-weighted measurement. G-weighting, defined by ISO 7196:1995, covers the infrasound range of 1–
20 Hz — below audible hearing but perceptible through bodily sensation at sufficient pressure levels.26
27 Large compressor-based cooling equipment can generate tonal energy that extends into or near the
infrasound range; whether any specific installation does so depends on equipment specifications that
are not established by a dB(A) noise study alone. Rule 7030 requires neither C-weighted nor G-
weighted measurement; a noise study conducted under Rule 7030 therefore provides no spectral
characterization of noise in these frequency ranges.28
Octave-band or 1/3-octave-band spectral analysis. Octave-band analysis allows identification of
discrete tonal frequencies and their relative contribution to total noise levels. Without it, a compliant
dB(A) reading cannot identify which frequencies are present, at what levels, or whether any tonal
component is prominent. Analysis: The WHO has identified A-weighting as inappropriate for health-
effects assessment of noise with prominent low-frequency components; a noise study reporting only
Page 460 of 517 dB(A) compliance therefore provides no basis for evaluating whether chiller fan blade-pass tones are
present or at what frequencies.
A tonal penalty. ISO 1996-1:2016 defines a framework for adjusting measured noise levels upward —
by 3 to 6 dB — when a prominent tone is audible within a noise spectrum.29 The empirical basis for
tonal penalties is strongest at mid and high frequencies: laboratory research found annoyance penalties
of 0 dB at 50 and 110 Hz, increasing to 12 dB at 2100 Hz.6 Analysis: ISO 1996-1 §6 specifies the
adjustment based on tonal audibility without stating a frequency floor; the standard’s text does not
exclude low-frequency tones from the adjustment framework. Peer-reviewed literature documents that a
number of U.S. municipalities have independently adopted a 5 dB tonal penalty using one-third octave
band analysis under ISO 1996-2, applicable to any prominent tone detected by the measurement
methodology.29 Minnesota Rule 7030 contains no tonal adjustment provision of any kind.
Post-construction verification. Rule 7030 establishes limits but does not require post-construction
measurement to confirm that operational noise matches modeled predictions. Post-construction noise
monitoring can be required as a CUP condition under the city’s land use authority independently of Rule
7030; the absence of a Rule 7030 requirement does not preclude the city from imposing one.

remediation consultancy): “One of the most common complaints about data center noise is a low-frequency humming sound that
travels long distances. The most common source is the large number of chiller or cooling fans required to control equipment
temperatures 24/7. Technically, the hum is caused by the aerodynamic interactions of the fan impellers that may vary in frequency
(pitch) as the fan speed changes with temperature.” INVC is cited here for the mechanism description; its characterizations of specific

2. World Health Organization, Guidelines for Community Noise (Berglund, Lindvall, Schwela, eds.), WHO, Geneva, 1999: “Health effects
due to low-frequency components in noise are estimated to be more severe than for community noises in general… Since A-weighting
underestimates the sound pressure level of noise with low-frequency components, a better assessment of health effects would be to
use C-weighting.” The guidelines further specify: “When prominent low frequency components are present, noise measures based on
A-weighting are inappropriate.” For sleep specifically: “Low frequency noise, for example, from ventilation systems can disturb rest
and sleep even at low sound levels… For noise with a large proportion of low frequency sounds a still lower guideline [than 30 dB(A)]
is recommended.” Note: these guidelines were published in 1999 and were written primarily in the context of traffic, aircraft, and
general industrial noise. The 2018 WHO Environmental Noise Guidelines for the European Region (see below) build on this
framework and do not revise the low-frequency findings. ↩ ↩ ↩ ↩

nameplate for 30 minutes followed by 75% for 60 minutes (the 2025 edition eliminated the prior 25%/30min step; some jurisdictions

11. The frequency-dependence of acoustic barrier insertion loss is established in standard engineering references. The Maekawa
diffraction model (1968) and the Kurze-Anderson formula define insertion loss as a function of the Fresnel number N, which is
inversely proportional to wavelength: at low frequencies where wavelengths are long relative to barrier dimensions, N is small and
insertion loss is low. As summarized in ScienceDirect Topics, “Noise Barrier,” citing Maekawa (1968) and Kurze-Anderson: barrier
attenuation is “fundamentally frequency-dependent” and “high-frequency sound waves with short wavelengths experience greater
attenuation because they diffract less efficiently around obstacles.” A 100 Hz tone has a wavelength of approximately 3.4 meters;
practical barriers of finite height provide substantially less insertion loss at such frequencies than at mid- or high-frequency content. ↩

Applicant's Noise Study and What
the City Can Require
June 15, 2026 · updated June 17, 2026 · 18 min
TL;DR
A noise study evaluated solely against Minnesota’s minimum dB(A) standard would demonstrate legal
sufficiency — but would not establish whether neighbors will experience noise problems. Independent peer
review with a defined scope that goes beyond dB(A) compliance is the most direct pre-approval
mechanism for establishing whether the study actually addresses the frequency content most likely to
affect nearby residents.
Where data center noise has become a sustained community problem the pattern is consistent: approval
under minimum standards; complaints after operation begins; measurement under the same standard that
failed to predict the problem; voluntary remediation; and regulatory reform — years after the fact.
The city’s full negotiating leverage exists before the CUP is granted. After approval, if no enforceable noise
conditions are included in the permit, the available mechanism is complaint-based enforcement under the
same standard that could not capture the problem in the first place.
The Applicant’s Noise Study: What It Will and
May Not Show
What the study is structured to demonstrate
The applicant’s noise study, due at the June 23, 2026 Planning Commission hearing,1 will evaluate the
proposed facility against Rule 7030 — the applicable legal standard and the minimum standard a study
must satisfy for the CUP noise condition. A study evaluated solely against Rule 7030 would demonstrate
dB(A) compliance at required receptor locations, but would not establish whether neighbors will experience
noise problems. The four questions below identify what additional information a study must provide to be
informative beyond bare legal sufficiency. Whether the submitted study addresses them can be evaluated
when it is available. For the reasons described on this page and in Data Center Noise: What It Is and Why
Page 465 of 517the Standard Does Not Capture It, dB(A) compliance alone does not resolve the frequency-content
questions most relevant to residential neighbors.
Margulies, appearing as the applicant of record at the May 26 hearing, characterized the study’s intended
scope as follows: the study “will not only say what the noise impact will be on the neighborhood — and
hopefully that noise impact will be low, meeting the state standards the city has adopted — but if for any
reason there are issues with noise standards it will tell us what type of mitigation is necessary and how to
put that mitigation into effect.”2 The study’s stated primary target is Rule 7030 compliance.
Methodological questions that determine whether the study
is informative beyond bare compliance
Four questions determine whether the study provides meaningful information about the actual noise
experience of nearby residents and the school, as distinct from a demonstration of legal sufficiency:
1. Spectral content beyond dB(A). Does the study report C-weighted levels, octave-band, or 1/3-octave-
band results at sensitive receptors, or only dB(A)? Without spectral data the study cannot characterize
whether low-frequency tonal content — the primary complaint mechanism documented at other data
center facilities — is present at levels that would affect nearby residents or the school even if dB(A)
compliance is confirmed.
2. Load scenario modeled. Is the noise model based on full Phase Two capacity or a lower operational
assumption? The Electric Service Agreement (ESA) drafted between Elk River Municipal Utilities (ERMU)
and Elk River Capital LLC establishes 23 MW for Phase One and an additional 10 MW for Phase Two,
totaling 33 MW at full buildout.3 A study based on a reduced load assumption would understate worst-case
operational noise. The noise study should explicitly state the load scenario modeled.
3. Nighttime limit application. Does the study evaluate compliance against the nighttime L10 limit of 55
dB(A) at NAC 1 residential receivers? The facility will operate continuously including during the 10:00 p.m.
to 7:00 a.m. nighttime period when the more protective standard applies to household units and other
overnight lodging. Compliance during daytime hours does not establish nighttime compliance at residential
receptors.
4. Receptor placement. Minnesota Rule 7030.0060, Subpart 1 requires that sound measurements be
made “at or within the applicable NAC at the point of human activity which is nearest to the noise source.”4
The rule requires measurement at the nearest point of human activity — not simply at the parcel boundary.
Meadowvale Elementary School is classified as NAC 1 under Minnesota Rule 7030.0050, Subpart 2,
which places “Educational services” in NAC 1 based on land use activity at the receiver location.5 For a
school in NAC 1 that means the school building and outdoor activity areas; for a residence the dwelling
and yard. A study should confirm that receptor placement satisfies this requirement not merely that
measurement was taken at the property line. Separately the chiller yard is located on the south side of the
Page 466 of 517building enclosed by a concrete masonry unit (CMU) wall with planned acoustic treatment.6 The acoustic
performance of that enclosure — whether it is modeled as an attenuating barrier or a reflective surface —
is a methodological question a peer reviewer should evaluate.
Why independent peer review requires a defined scope
Independent peer review of the applicant’s noise study at applicant cost is a legally defensible and
precedented CUP condition. Chandler, Arizona’s data center noise ordinance, adopted December 5, 2022
following sustained community complaints beginning in 2014 at a data center in the Brittany Heights
neighborhood, requires noise study review before and after construction.7 The Chandler ordinance arose
from a residential-adjacent siting context; the conditions it establishes are referenced here as documented
precedent for the mechanism of independent review, not as a direct factual parallel to the Elk River site
configuration. Without independent review built into the entitlement, inadequate noise analysis produces
consequences borne by neighbors rather than the applicant — and where no enforceable noise conditions
are included in the CUP, the only available remedy is complaint-based enforcement after the fact.8 One
noise analysis firm describes the result as “a post-approval nuisance complaint with no enforcement
teeth.”9
Peer review only has enforcement teeth if the CUP condition specifies scope. A condition requiring review
of “the applicant’s methodology” would authorize a peer reviewer to confirm internal consistency — it would
not require the reviewer to evaluate whether the methodology captures the noise content most likely to
affect neighbors. Under Minnesota Statutes § 462.3595, Subd. 1, CUP conditions must reflect “standards
and criteria stated in the ordinance” — but the city may also attach reasonable conditions based on factual
evidence in the public record.10 Analysis: A meaningful peer review condition should specify: C-weighted
and octave-band analysis at all sensitive receptors; receptor placement at the chiller yard boundary in
addition to property line; full Phase Two capacity load scenario; and nighttime limit evaluation at residential
receptors.
What the City Can Require, and Why Timing
Matters
The city’s authority to exceed the state floor
Minnesota Rule 7030 establishes minimum statewide noise standards. It is not a ceiling. Minnesota
Statutes §§ 462.3595 and 462.357 together authorize municipalities to designate conditional uses by
ordinance, to approve them subject to standards and criteria set in that ordinance, and to regulate land
uses for the purpose of promoting the public health, safety, morals, and general welfare.11 Municipalities
may also incorporate those standards into zoning code through the ordinance amendment process.
Page 467 of 517Community Development Director Carlton confirmed at the May 26 hearing that the ordinance amendment
process is specifically the vehicle through which the city can establish performance standards for data
centers, including noise mitigation requirements.12
Specific conditions with documented precedent
The following conditions are supported by precedent in jurisdictions that have addressed data center
noise:
Pre-construction baseline measurement by an independent acoustician, establishing ambient noise
levels at all sensitive receptors before construction begins. Without a pre-construction baseline there is no
objective reference point against which post-construction compliance can be verified. Chandler’s ordinance
requires baseline measurement as a condition of permit.13
Independent peer review of the applicant’s noise study at applicant cost, with defined scope including: C-
weighted and octave-band analysis at sensitive receptors; receptor placement at the chiller yard boundary;
full Phase Two capacity (33 MW); and explicit nighttime limit evaluation.
Post-construction verification testing by an independent party, at applicant cost, after the facility reaches
operational load. Measured results at sensitive receptors to be compared against modeled predictions. A
defined remedy trigger — specific exceedance threshold and timeline — must be included for the condition
to be enforceable. As LSARS (IOVerge LLC), a commercial noise analysis services firm, documents:
“Without these items in the entitlement, the noise problem becomes a post-approval nuisance complaint
with no enforcement teeth.”9 Documented timeframes in other jurisdictions include 60 days from
occupancy (Albemarle County, Virginia draft ordinance)14 and six months from certificate of occupancy
(PennFuture Model Data Center Ordinance).15
Generator load testing restrictions. NFPA 110 requires periodic load testing of emergency generators.
Without a CUP condition testing may occur at any hour including nighttime. Chandler’s ordinance limits
generator testing to weekday daytime hours with advance notice to adjacent property owners.16 Whether a
parallel condition is appropriate for this facility is a question for the city to consider in setting CUP scope.
Annual noise monitoring for the first five years of operation, during peak operational periods, with results
submitted to the city. Chandler’s ordinance requires annual noise study submission for five years after
construction completion.17 This creates a post-approval record and a mechanism for identifying
operational changes — such as additional racks or increased load — that alter the facility’s noise profile.
The ordinance amendment is the more consequential
proceeding
Page 468 of 517Ordinance Amendment OA 26-02 (OA 26-02) would add data centers as a conditional use in all I-1 and I-2
industrial zones citywide. As Carlton described at the May 26 hearing, this is a permanent, city-wide
change: any parcel in an I-1 or I-2 zone would be eligible for a data center application upon adoption.18
As of the May 26 hearing, no draft ordinance language for the new § 30-1293(d) section had been
presented to the Planning Commission. The standards discussed — size, cooling method, noise
mitigation, screening, setbacks — were identified as potential elements, not adopted requirements.19
The CUP governs one facility at one location. The ordinance, as Carlton confirmed, governs every future
data center application in every I-1 and I-2 zone in Elk River.18 As of the May 26 hearing, no size caps,
aggregate capacity limits, or noise thresholds had been drafted into the ordinance text.19
Analysis: An ordinance that designates data centers as a conditional use without specifying noise
performance standards establishes no baseline against which a future applicant’s proposal must be
evaluated; any conditions exceeding Rule 7030 compliance would require negotiation on each individual
CUP application, with no binding floor established in the zoning code.10
The window for requiring more protective standards
The documented pattern in jurisdictions where data center noise became a sustained community problem
follows a consistent sequence: approval under minimum standards; community complaints after operation
begins; measurement under the same standards that failed to predict the problem; voluntary operator
remediation such as acoustic shrouds or louvres — which instrumentation and measurement authorities
describe as ineffective against low-frequency tonal content, a frequently documented complaint source20
— and eventual regulatory reform years after the fact.
In Chandler, Arizona, complaints began in 2014. Regulatory reform occurred in 2022 — eight years later.21
In Prince William County, Virginia, the county noise ordinance exempted heating, ventilation, and air
conditioning (HVAC) equipment from regulation entirely; Amazon eventually added acoustic shrouds
voluntarily.22 23 The county board removed the HVAC exemption in February 2023, with supervisors
describing the ordinance change as a first step.24
The city’s full negotiating leverage — the ability to require specific noise analysis, impose enforceable
conditions, and establish verification mechanisms — exists before the CUP is granted. After approval,
where no enforceable noise conditions are included in the permit, the available mechanism is complaint-
based enforcement under the same standard that could not capture the problem in the first place.

Re: Ordinance Amendment OA 26-02 and Conditional Use Permit CU 26-05 — Data Center,
19178 Industrial Boulevard NW
Dear Chair, Commissioners, Mayor, and Council Members,
I've spoken at every public hearing on this application since it was introduced. I’d like to thank
city staff along with the planning commission and council for their efforts so far in drafting an
ordinance on this important topic. I'm submitting this written comment to put the technical and
procedural concerns below into the record ahead of the July 6 City Council vote. The points are
organized in six sections: changes to the draft ordinance since the June 18 version; the noise
study's technical adequacy; a mismatch between the facility's backup generation capacity and
its stated backup requirement; the comparability of the two setback precedent facilities; a gap in
the decommissioning provision; and a set of process questions I'd ask staff and the City
Attorney to address before the vote.
To be clear, I continue to request that OA 26-02 be denied. In its place, I'm asking for two things:
a moratorium, and a task force with broad representation, given the time and mandate to study
this issue and produce comprehensive guidance addressing how modern data center
equipment affects our communities.
1. Changes to the Draft Ordinance Since June 18
The version dated June 22, 2026 differs from the June 18 version in three respects that weaken
enforcement, and two that strengthen it. Both versions are in the record; I'd ask that this
comparison be considered alongside them.
Weakened. The June 18 draft required a noise study "[p]rior to application 1 ." The June 22 draft
requires the same study "[p]rior to approval 2 ." This moves the noise study from a completeness
requirement — gating whether the application is accepted — to a pre-decision requirement that
does not gate the statutory clock under Minn. Stat. § 15.99.
Weakened. The June 18 draft required that "[d]ocumentation of the [MPCA/EPA] review must
be submitted with the application" and that, if an environmental review is found necessary, "it
must be completed prior to submittal of a Conditional Use Permit Application 3 ." Both provisions
are absent from the June 22 draft, which requires only that generator systems "comply with
applicable [MPCA] and [EPA] emissions standards," with no submission or pre-application
timing requirement attached 4 .
Page 474 of 517Weakened. The June 18 draft required that, where post-construction noise exceeds permissible
levels, remediation "must be completed within 6 months of the date of review 5 ." The June 22
draft requires the applicant to "develop and submit for review and approval, mitigation
measures," but no longer specifies a completion deadline of any kind 6 .
Strengthened. The June 22 draft adds Z-weighted (dBZ) measurement alongside A-weighted
and C-weighted measurement 7 . Z-weighting is unweighted across the audible spectrum and
captures low-frequency content that C-weighting still partially discounts. *Analysis: this
addresses the choice of weighting curve, not the resolution, load-point coverage, or
measured-versus-assumed defects identified in Section 2 below — it is a real addition, but does
not by itself make the spectral reporting requirement adequate.*
Strengthened. The June 22 draft makes low-frequency noise and vibration an independent
basis for both the mitigation requirement and the post-construction compliance trigger, separate
from MPCA dB(A) compliance 8 . This is the first point at which the ordinance text decouples
low-frequency adequacy from bare Rule 7030 compliance, and I'd ask that it be preserved and
built on rather than narrowed in any further revision.
2. The Noise Study Falls Short of the Manufacturer's Specification and
Recognized Acoustic Methodology
The ordinance's own text requiring "full frequency spectra to identify low-frequency and tonal
components" is broad enough that the submitted study likely satisfies it as written —
A-weighted, C-weighted, and now Z-weighted measurements are themselves integrations
across the full audible range, and the study reports all three. That is the underlying problem: the
ordinance's current language sets a bar low enough to clear without producing the
band-by-band data needed to evaluate tonal content, and the submitted study falls short not of
that bar, but of standards the equipment manufacturer and the acoustic engineering field
already treat as necessary for this purpose.
A. The submitted study falls short of what the equipment manufacturer's own
specification calls for.
The chillers specified for this project are York model YVFA0459 air-cooled screw chillers 9 . York's
published guide specification for this chiller line states, in relevant part:
"A. Provide acoustical sound power or sound pressure level data in decibels (dB) at the
scheduled eight (8) octave band center frequencies. A-weighted sound data alone is not
acceptable. B. Provide all sound power or sound pressure level data at 100%, 75%, 50%,
and 25% load. C. Supplied equipment shall not exceed scheduled sound power or sound
pressure level data at any load point... D. Acoustical performance ratings shall be in
accordance with AHRI Standard 370. 10 "
Page 475 of 517The submitted noise study (ESI Engineering, Project P3205, June 16, 2026) reports chiller
sound data at one load point — 100% load, 101.4°F ambient — not the four points the
manufacturer's own specification calls for 9 . The study further states that the 31.5 Hz octave
band was not measured for this equipment: "[b]ased on measurement data we have for similar
chillers, we assumed the chiller sound level at the 31.5 Hz octave band was equal to the level at
63 Hz 9 ." Analysis: the manufacturer's own specification exists in part because A-weighted
summary data is not adequate to characterize this equipment's low-frequency tonal output; the
study that the city's draft ordinance treats as the basis for the noise condition does not meet that
specification's own stated minimum.
B. Spectral resolution and receptor coverage are partial — and inconsistent with the
study's own baseline methodology.
The study's baseline ambient noise analysis used 1/3-octave-band data to identify and attribute
specific noise sources: "[b]ased on a review of the hourly noise level results at ⅓ octave band
frequencies, traffic produced the loudest levels in the 400 Hz to 2,000 Hz range," and
separately, the 4:00 a.m. exceedance at the residential receiver "was caused by trains 11 ," a
conclusion likewise reached "based on... the noise level results at ⅓ octave band frequencies 11 ."
The calculated equipment noise results presented in Section D of the study, by contrast, report
only 1/1-octave-band data — a coarser resolution than ANSI S12.9 Part 4 and ISO 1996-2
Annex C call for in tonal-penalty assessment — at just two single bands (31.5 Hz, 63 Hz), and
apply that analysis to only three of the nine receiver locations evaluated in the study 12 . The
remaining six receivers — including locations near Meadowvale Elementary and Aegir Brewery,
both of which show zero or near-zero compliance margin in the study's own results 13 — receive
no spectral characterization at all.
Analysis: the study demonstrates that 1/3-octave-band analysis was both available to ESI and
methodologically necessary for identifying frequency-specific noise sources at the baseline
stage — that is how they determined trains, rather than something else, caused the 4:00 a.m.
exceedance. The same resolution is not applied to the calculated data center equipment noise,
which is the subject the study exists to evaluate. A study that uses finer resolution to
characterize background traffic and trains than to characterize the facility's own chillers and
generators has not demonstrated a resolution limitation — it has demonstrated a choice.
C. Suggested replacement language for the ordinance, drafted to close this gap as a
reporting requirement.
I'd recommend the following language, drafted to function as a reporting and disclosure
requirement rather than a numeric compliance standard, consistent with the principle that Minn.
Stat. § 116.07, Subd. 2(c) preempts local noise standards that compete with Rule 7030's
numeric thresholds but does not address study methodology:
"The study must report sound pressure or sound power levels in 1/3-octave bands, per
ANSI S12.9 Part 4 or ISO 1996-2 Annex C, at all load points for which the equipment
manufacturer publishes acoustical performance data, and at every receptor location
identified in the study. For each reported band, the study must state whether the value is a
Page 476 of 517 direct measurement or a manufacturer-sourced rating; any band level that is assumed,
interpolated, or extrapolated rather than measured or manufacturer-sourced must be
identified as such, with the basis for the value stated. The study must also report the
results of a narrow-band tonal audibility analysis per ISO/TS 20065, alongside integrated
A-weighted (dBA), C-weighted (dBC), and Z-weighted (dBZ) measurements."
Analysis: this version requires disclosure of what was measured, how, and at what resolution,
without the ordinance text itself setting a pass/fail spectral threshold — the City retains the
ability to act on what the disclosure shows through the existing CUP conditioning and revocation
mechanism, without creating an alternative numeric noise standard in the ordinance text.
D. The study omits the emergency scenario most relevant to nearby residents.
The study's stated methodology is that "[a]ll the chillers may run continuously during daytime
and nighttime hours[, but o]nly one generator will ever run at a time for maintenance, and only
during daytime hours 14 ." Calculated results are reported only for "chillers only" and "chillers and
one genset" conditions; no scenario models all ten generators operating simultaneously 13 , which
is what an actual utility outage or grid disturbance would require, given that the facility's backup
generation is sized to less than full load (Section 3 below). Combined with the resolution gap in
Section 2.B, the city currently has no spectral data describing what nearby residents would
experience during the kind of event the backup generation system exists to handle.
E. The 31.5/63 Hz design goal is an indoor criterion applied to an outdoor design
problem.
The study's low-frequency design goals — 80 dB at 31.5 Hz and 84 dB at 63 Hz, measured
outdoors at residential receivers — are derived as follows: "[a]ccording to ASHRAE, indoor
noise levels of more than 65 dB at 31.5 Hz, and 69 dB at 63 Hz, are likely to generate vibration
that may be perceptible[, with a] slight possibility of rattles in light fixtures, doors, windows,
etc. 15 " The study adds an assumed 15 dB of building attenuation to those indoor thresholds to
produce the 80/84 dB outdoor figures 15 .
Analysis: the ASHRAE Room Criterion Mark II curve cited here is a diagnostic threshold for
whether mechanical-system noise generated inside a building will cause perceptible structural
vibration or rattle to building occupants — a property-condition and occupant-comfort metric, not
a community health or sleep-disturbance criterion. Applying it to noise generated outside a
building and received by residents in neighboring homes substitutes a metric built for a different
problem. The 15 dB building-attenuation figure used to convert the indoor threshold to an
outdoor design goal is also not established for the specific residential structures at the affected
receiver locations; low-frequency sound transmission loss through residential building
envelopes is not uniform across construction types, and facade attenuation figures are typically
characterized at frequencies well above 63 Hz.
Page 477 of 517F. The equipment site plan exists and was used, but is not in the public record.
The study's stated design conditions include "[e]quipment site plan received [by ESI] May 21,
2026 16 ," used as an input to the noise modeling. This document has not been made part of the
public record for this proceeding and I'd ask that it be added.
3. The Backup Generation Capacity Does Not Match the Facility's
Stated Backup Requirement
At the May 26, 2026 Planning Commission hearing, ERMU General Manager Mark Hanson
stated: "[t]ypically data centers run at about 80 percent... They will also have 100 percent
backup generation — that is also a requirement in the agreement 17 ."
The generators specified for this facility are ten Cummins model DQKAN units rated at 2,500
kW each 18 — confirmed in the City's own written Q&A response as "10 generators[, each a]
2,500 KW Cummins Diesel Generator 19 ." Ten units at 2,500 kW total 25 MW. Against the
facility's stated 33 MW maximum design capacity 20 , that is 75.8% coverage — a 24.2% (8 MW)
shortfall relative to the facility's full nameplate load, before any reduction for generator
redundancy (an N+1 configuration, holding one unit in reserve, would reduce available backup
to 22.5 MW, a 31.8% shortfall).
Analysis: I'd ask the City to clarify, on the record, whether the ESA's "100 percent backup
generation" requirement is measured against the facility's full 33 MW nameplate capacity or
against the approximately 80% typical operating load Mr. Hanson separately described. If the
latter — roughly 26.4 MW — the installed 25 MW of backup capacity is a closer, though still
short, match. As stated, the 25 MW of installed backup capacity does not provide 100 percent
backup against the facility's permitted maximum load under either reading, and I'd ask that this
be resolved and stated plainly before final action.
4. The Two Comparator Facilities Used to Justify the Setback Are Not
Comparable on Three Independent Measures
Staff's stated basis for the ordinance's setback standards is that "[t]he two existing data centers
have more than 50 homes within 750 feet of their boundaries... The city receives very few
complaints regarding their operation 21 ." I'd ask the Commission and Council to weigh that track
record against three respects in which the comparator facilities differ from the one proposed.
Age and equipment generation. The City's own written Q&A response states that "[t]he
existing data centers were constructed in 2006 and 2007 with design capacities of 10 MW and
20 MW[, and] are approximately 160,000 SF and 240,000 SF in size 22 ." Both facilities are
Page 478 of 517roughly 19–20 years old, predating the dry, air-cooled chiller technology proposed for this
project.
Power density. Dividing the City's own published figures: the existing 10 MW / 160,000 SF
facility operates at approximately 62.5 W/SF; the existing 20 MW / 240,000 SF facility at
approximately 83.3 W/SF. The proposed facility, at 33 MW design capacity in approximately
60,000 SF 22 , operates at approximately 550 W/SF — roughly 6.6 to 8.8 times the power density
of the two facilities cited as precedent for the setback standard.
Cooling technology. Satellite and street-level imagery of both existing facility sites shows water
tanks paired with cooling-tower fan cells, consistent with water-cooled cooling tower equipment
rather than the dry, air-cooled chillers proposed for this project. *Analysis: I have not
independently confirmed via permit or water-billing records whether this is open evaporative
cooling (consumptive) or a closed-circuit fluid cooler; I'd ask the City to clarify the cooling
system type for both existing facilities for the record, given that the draft ordinance's
zero-consumptive-water mandate is being applied to a facility design that may differ materially
from the precedent facilities on this point as well.*
None of the three factors that most directly drive a facility's noise emission, thermal output, and
water consumption profile — age and equipment generation, power density, and cooling
technology — match between the precedent facilities and the one under consideration. A
low-complaint history from a fundamentally different equipment generation is not, on its own, a
sufficient basis for setting the setback standard that will apply citywide under OA 26-02.
5. The Decommissioning Provision Has No Funding Mechanism
The draft ordinance requires only that "[t]he applicant submit[] a decommissioning plan...
outlining the estimated decommissioning timeframe, costs, and procedures 23 ." No bond, escrow,
letter of credit, or other security instrument is required to back that estimate.
The Electric Service Agreement between ERMU and Elk River Capital LLC addresses what
happens if the developer does not proceed: "[i]f the Customer does not proceed with the
Project, ERMU is not obligated to return any of the dollars that ERMU has already spent or
encumbered as Infrastructure Costs... [t]he Customer will be responsible for windup and/or
decommissioning costs 24 ." That is a contractual assignment of responsibility, not a funding
mechanism. By contrast, the same agreement requires the Customer to post a letter of credit or
cash deposit the moment two payments are missed in a contract year 25 , and sets a
$1,000,000-per-year early termination payment for default on the power supply agreement 26 —
both instruments protect ERMU's revenue interest specifically; neither protects the City's interest
in not inheriting an abandoned facility containing ten chillers, ten diesel generators, and on-site
fuel storage.
Elk River Capital LLC is a single-purpose entity formed April 4, 2026, with no operating or asset
history independent of this project. I'd ask the City to consider requiring that the
Page 479 of 517decommissioning plan's estimated cost be secured by a bond, escrow account, or irrevocable
letter of credit payable to the City, with the estimate subject to periodic reappraisal over the life
of the facility, and a triggering mechanism — extended cessation of operations, change of
ownership, or bankruptcy — requiring the security to be posted or increased rather than relying
on voluntary performance by whatever entity holds the property at that time.
6. Questions for Staff and the City Attorney Before July 6
Two procedural questions raised by the above sections are appropriately resolved by staff and
counsel rather than asserted by me as settled:
Completeness mechanism for noise study deficiencies. I'd ask whether a future
requirement that a conforming noise study be a required submittal for CUP application
completeness — resolved during the City's statutory completeness review under Minn. Stat. §
15.99, before the decision clock begins — is one the City would consider for applications
submitted after OA 26-02 is adopted. Separately, for applications already deemed complete, I'd
ask whether the City has authority to condition final CUP approval on submission of a
supplemental or corrected study where the original is found deficient against the ordinance's
reporting requirements, without affecting the § 15.99 deadline.
Whether the statutory deadline can be tolled by a request for supplemental information.
I'd ask the City Attorney to clarify whether Minn. Stat. § 15.99 permits the City to formally
request supplemental information from an applicant and toll the decision deadline while awaiting
a response, as a mechanism distinct from the completeness determination itself. If such a
mechanism exists, it may be the most relevant tool available for addressing the noise study
deficiencies described in Section 2 within the time remaining before the August 25, 2026
statutory deadline.
Thank you for your consideration of these points.

9. ESI Engineering, "Summary Report for Data Center Noise Control," Project P3205, prepared
for Elk River Capital, June 16, 2026 (ver. 2), p. D-1: "York performance report for the ten
model YVFA0459, 550 nominal ton air-cooled screw chillers... The York report provided unit
sound power levels at each octave band frequency from 63 Hz to 8,000 Hz, which sum to an
overall level of 105 dBA for the 100% load, 101.4°F ambient temperature condition. Based
on measurement data we have for similar chillers, we assumed the chiller sound level at the
31.5 Hz octave band was equal to the level at 63 Hz."

Specification, § 2.07 (Acoustical Data).
11. ESI Engineering, P3205, June 16, 2026 (ver. 2), p. C-5: "Based on a review of the hourly
noise level results at ⅓ octave band frequencies, traffic produced the loudest levels in the
400 Hz to 2,000 Hz range. This noise was dominant during both daytime and nighttime
hours... Based on a review of the weather conditions, the audio recordings, and the noise
level results at ⅓ octave band frequencies, the L10 exceedance during the 4:00 AM hour
was caused by trains."
12. ESI Engineering, P3205, June 16, 2026 (ver. 2), p. D-2 and Table D-3, p. D-12: nine receiver
locations (A through I) evaluated; 1/1-octave low-frequency analysis (31.5 Hz, 63 Hz,

Applications, Ch. 49, Room Criterion (RC) Curves, Mark II: indoor noise levels above 65 dB
at 31.5 Hz and 69 dB at 63 Hz "are likely to generate vibration that may be perceptible," with
residential buildings assumed to provide approximately 15 dB of attenuation at these
frequencies to derive the outdoor design goals.

17. Mark Hanson, General Manager, Elk River Municipal Utilities, Planning Commission hearing,
May 26, 2026 (diarized transcript), 00:19:28: "Typically data centers run at about 80 percent.
The requester could provide a more accurate answer. 80 percent of requested load. They
will also have 100 percent backup generation — that is also a requirement in the
agreement."
18. ESI Engineering, P3205, June 16, 2026 (ver. 2), p. D-2: "Cummins specification sheet for
the ten 2,500 kW model DQKAN diesel generator sets... each genset produces overall
sound power levels of 128 dBA radiated from the unit, and 133 dBA at the open exhaust."
19. City of Elk River, "Written Responses to Public Hearing Comments Regarding the Proposed
Data Center at 19178 Industrial Boulevard," June 23, 2026, response to Question 10: "the
Page 482 of 517 specific generator [is] a 2,500 KW Cummins Diesel Generator – model DQKAN. The
proposed facility would include 10 generators."
20. Draft Ordinance (June 22, 2026 version), § (d)(5)(b): "[t]he total energy use of the Data
Center facility shall not exceed 35 MW of power." Facility design capacity of 33 MW per
Electric Service Agreement and City Q&A response cited above.
21. City of Elk River, Request for Action, June 23, 2026, "Ordinance Amendment": "[t]hese
setbacks were established by reviewing the current data center setbacks from residential
properties and peer community ordinances. The two existing data centers have more than
50 homes within 750 feet of their boundaries and are located across the road from
residential zoning districts. The city receives very few complaints regarding their operation."
22. City of Elk River, "Written Responses to Public Hearing Comments," June 23, 2026,
response to Question 6: "[t]he existing data centers were constructed in 2006 and 2007 with
design capacities of 10 MW and 20 MW... approximately 160,000 SF and 240,000 SF in
size... The proposed facility is approximately 60,000 SF in size and has a design capacity for
33 MW of power."
23. Draft Ordinance (June 22, 2026 version), § (d)(5)(g): "[t]he applicant submits a
decommissioning plan, prepared by a qualified professional, outlining the estimated
decommissioning timeframe, costs, and procedures for safe shutdown, removal of
equipment, disposal or recycling of materials, and site restoration."

# Open Questions
Compiled from question pages with status `unanswered` or `partial`.
Only sub-questions that remain open are included; fully answered
sub-questions are omitted. Answers marked **Partial** carry the
answer text from the published page; unanswered sub-questions have
no A: line.
---
## Closed Loop Cooling: Chemicals
Q: What form of glycol will be used — ethylene glycol or propylene
glycol?
---
Q: What concentration of glycol will be used?
---
Q: What other chemicals will be present in the cooling loop beyond
glycol — corrosion inhibitors, biocides, pH adjusters, or other
additives?
---
Q: What is the purpose of each chemical?
A: **Partial.** The water-glycol mixture absorbs heat from servers
in the primary loop and transfers it to the refrigerant circuit;
R-134a refrigerant absorbs that heat and rejects it to outdoor air
through the chiller condenser. Specific glycol concentration and
refrigerant charge amount are not stated in any application document.
---
## Aggregate Limits and Caps for Data Centers
Q: Is the city prepared to approve this ordinance amendment with no
aggregate capacity limit and no cap on the number of data centers
that could be approved city-wide?
A: **Partial.** The Planning Commission voted unanimously to recommend
denial of OA 26-02 to the City Council, citing preference for a
planned unit development (PUD) process requiring site-by-site review
over a zoning-district amendment. The City Council is scheduled to
act on July 6, 2026.
---
Q: If not, what specific standards will prevent that outcome?
Page 491 of 517
A: **Partial.** The draft ordinance proposed a 35 MW per-facility
maximum load and a 75,000 SF building size cap, but no aggregate
citywide capacity limit or facility count limit. The Commission's
recommended PUD pathway would require a zone change for each proposed
site, providing greater municipal discretion than a CUP framework.
No standards preventing a cumulative outcome have been codified as
of the Commission's recommendation.
---
## Diesel Generators: Air Quality
Q: Has the applicant prepared a potential-to-emit (PTE) calculation
for Nitrogen Oxides (NOx), Fine Particulate Matter (PM2.5), Carbon
Monoxide (CO), and Hazardous Air Pollutants (HAPs)?
---
Q: What EPA emission tier are the generator engines?
---
Q: What fuel grade will these generators use?
---
Q: Will any emissions control devices (diesel oxidation catalysts,
particulate filters) be installed?
---
Q: Has any air dispersion modeling been performed to characterize
ground-level concentrations at the property line and at the nearest
receptor?
---
## Diesel Generators: Capacity and Use
Q: What is total installed generation capacity across all units?
A: **Partial.** Total installed nameplate capacity is 25 MW
(10 units × 2,500 kW each), below the 33 MW maximum permitted
facility load. The application record does not reconcile the gap
between 25 MW total generator capacity and 33 MW maximum permitted
load.
---
## Nearby School & Day Care
Q: Has the city evaluated whether CUP conditions should address
proximity to schools and day care centers?
Page 492 of 517
A: **Partial.** The draft ordinance proposed residential setbacks of
750 feet structure-to-structure and 500 feet
parcel-boundary-to-parcel-boundary, but included no setback specific
to schools or day care centers. A commissioner asked whether
commercial or industrial setbacks should also be included; Community
Development Director Carlton stated none were included, citing that
industrial-to-industrial noise thresholds under MPCA Rule 7030 are
significantly higher than residential thresholds. The noise study
(ESI Engineering, Project P3205) identified Meadowvale Elementary
School and Creative Kids Academy by name as NAC 1 Daytime educational
receivers; the modeled educational receiver location (Location D) is
the only location in the study showing zero-margin compliance —
chillers plus one generator calculated at exactly 60 dBA against a
60 dBA daytime limit. The Planning Commission recommended denial of
OA 26-02. The CUP public hearing (CU 26-05) was continued to
July 28, 2026; CUP conditions addressing school and day care proximity
remain open.
---
## Noise Levels at Adjacent Properties
Q: Who defined the scope of this noise study, and did city staff have
any input into what it was required to model before the applicant's
consultant began work?
A: **Partial.** Margulies stated the noise study scope was developed
jointly with the city. The applicant engaged ESI Engineering (Ryan
Skoug, P.E., Minneapolis) to conduct the study (Project P3205). No
independent city consultant reviewed the scope prior to the study's
completion.
---
Q: Does the noise study model generator operation, or only
cooling/HVAC equipment under normal operations?
A: **Partial.** ESI Engineering modeled one generator operating at a
time, reflecting the applicant's stated practice of running only one
unit per maintenance cycle. The scenario of all ten generators
operating simultaneously was not modeled; Skoug acknowledged the
omission and stated a reevaluation could be done if required.
Carlton confirmed the draft ordinance could require simultaneous
all-equipment modeling as a compliance standard.
---
Q: Does the noise study include low frequency and infrasound spectrum?
A: **Partial.** The study used A-weighted decibel measurement per
MPCA Rule 7030, which filters out low-frequency content. Skoug noted
that C-weighting and Z-weighting retain low-frequency content that
A-weighting filters out. The June 22 draft ordinance proposed to
Page 493 of 517require C- and Z-weighted analysis as part of any noise study. Skoug
and the city attorney disagreed on whether mandating C/Z standards is
consistent with state preemption law; the city attorney characterized
the area as evolving. C- and Z-weighted data were not reported in the
June 23 study presentation.
---
Q: What are the projected dB(C) levels at the property lines shared
with adjacent parcels?
A: **Partial.** The noise study (Project P3205, Table D-3) reports
dBC−dBA at NAC 1 residential receivers: 5 dB with chillers only;
16–18 dB with chillers plus one generator. The city's design goal was
dBC−dBA ≤ 20 dB at residential receivers; all modeled scenarios meet
that goal. dBC data for NAC 2 commercial receivers (including the
Aegir property line, Location G) and NAC 3 industrial receivers are
not reported in Table D-3.
---
Q: Will octave-band analysis be used to identify discrete tonal
frequencies and their relative contribution to total noise levels?
A: **Partial.** The study used one-third octave band analysis for
ambient background characterization but applied lower-resolution
octave-band analysis to project equipment at only three of nine
receiver locations. A public commenter submitted written comments
identifying this resolution inconsistency and requesting equivalent
frequency resolution at all locations. Skoug did not address the
inconsistency in the hearing record.
---
Q: Has the noise study methodology been scoped to include daytime
industrial-hours exposure, not just nighttime residential standards?
A: **Partial.** The study applied the MPCA Rule 7030 framework, which
uses A-weighted thresholds differentiated by receptor type
(residential, commercial, industrial) and by duration (L10 and L50
levels). Whether daytime industrial-hours modeling was performed
separately from nighttime residential analysis was not addressed in
the hearing record.
---
Q: Will the cooling equipment operate at variable or constant load?
A: **Partial.** The noise study modeled chillers at 100% load — the
maximum operating condition. Whether the equipment will operate at
variable load in practice was not addressed in the hearing record.
---
Page 494 of 517## Operator Identity and Qualifications
Q: What are their qualifications and operational track record?
A: **Partial.** The Swervo Development company bio identifies the
Woodbury Gold Line Data Center at 500 Bielenberg Drive as a 17.5 MW
data center acquired and repurposed by Swervo in 2024 — the only
named prior data center project in the record. Ned Abdul described
that facility's tenants (MN Bureau of Criminal Apprehension,
University of Minnesota, St. Cloud State University) at the May 26
hearing. A public commenter at the June 15 City Council hearing
documented a prior Eagan, Minnesota proceeding: IronGate operated
chillers without a permit, Eagan issued a criminal citation for noise
threshold violations and unpermitted work, and the Eagan City Council
unanimously denied the interim use permit, with litigation now
pending. The Eagan proceedings were cited as a documented prior
proceeding and were not confirmed by the applicant.
---
## Community Benefit/Risk: ERMU Revenue
Q: What annual revenue does ERMU project from this customer at the
Phase One minimum demand floor (18,400 kW), at full Phase One
contracted capacity (23 MW), and at full Phase Two capacity (33 MW)?
---
Q: What increment to ERMU's annual PILOT transfer to the City of
Elk River does ERMU project at each of those load levels?
A: **Partial.** ERMU's PILOT is set at 5% of electric revenue
generated within Elk River. The current annual PILOT transfer to the
city is approximately $1.7 million. Staff projected an additional
$600,000–$800,000 annually from this customer (early estimate; rate
not yet finalized by ERMU). Neither the revenue projection nor the
PILOT increment is broken down by load level.
---
Q: How will the increased revenue to the City of Elk River practically
benefit the residents and businesses of Elk River?
A: **Partial.** If a data center is approved, the City Council will
decide how to use the funds during the budget process. Current PILOT
funds are used for the General Fund, park improvements, and
equipment/vehicle replacement.
---
Q: What wholesale rate does MMPA charge ERMU for energy purchased to
serve loads above 10 MW under the large-load tariff (PUC docket
25-302), and how does that rate affect ERMU's per-kWh margin on this
customer relative to ERMU's margin on existing customers?
Page 495 of 517
---
Q: Are the early-termination/default penalties sized to recover
ERMU's allocated infrastructure investment if the customer exits
after Phase One is complete but before Phase Two demand is reached?
A: **Partial.** The ESA (§14.6(a)(iii)) establishes a Termination
Payment of $1,000,000 per Contract Year (or prorated months)
remaining in the 12-year initial term if the customer is the
defaulting party. If the customer abandons the project, ERMU is not
obligated to refund any infrastructure costs already spent or
encumbered (§8.12). Whether these amounts are sized to fully recover
ERMU's allocated infrastructure investment under all exit scenarios
is not addressed in the application record.
---
Q: If the customer exits or materially reduces load after the new
feeders and associated infrastructure are built, what cost-recovery
mechanism protects remaining ERMU ratepayers from absorbing stranded
infrastructure costs?
A: **Partial.** The ESA requires all infrastructure costs to be paid
by the customer before ERMU orders materials. If the customer abandons
the project, ERMU retains all infrastructure costs already spent or
encumbered and is not obligated to refund them (§8.12). The
Termination Payment ($1,000,000 × remaining Contract Years in the
12-year initial term) provides additional recovery. The ESA states
that ERMU's service to the customer "shall not create a negative
financial impact on ERMU's other customers" (§1). The application
record does not include ERMU's analysis of ratepayer exposure under
a full mid-term exit scenario.
---
Q: Has ERMU modeled the rate impact on remaining ratepayers of a full
customer exit scenario — the mirror image of the "Rate Stabilization"
benefit described in the May 26 presentation?
---
## Setback Requirements
Q: Should an ordinance establish minimum separation distances for
schools, day cares, or other similar uses before the city votes on
a permanent amendment?
A: **Partial.** The draft ordinance proposed residential setbacks of
750 feet structure-to-structure and 500 feet
parcel-boundary-to-parcel-boundary, but no school- or day
care–specific setback. Commissioners described these figures as
arbitrary without evidence of how peer communities had responded to
similar proximity. The Planning Commission voted unanimously to
Page 496 of 517recommend denial of OA 26-02; no setback standards have been
codified. The City Council is scheduled to act on July 6, 2026.
---
## Thermal Pollution and Heat Dissipation
Q: How will the facility manage and dissipate heat? The facility uses
a closed loop cooling system, so heat transfers from the coolant to
the air.
---
Q: What are the projected thermal outputs into the air at the site
boundary and at adjacent properties?
---
Q: Has any thermal impact modeling been conducted for adjacent
properties?

Police Department Front Desk Remodel David Kuhnly
Cal Portner
Justin Dunford
Action Requested
Receive information, discuss, and provide staff direction for improvements to the front desk/reception area of
the police department.
Background/Discussion
The current workstation is more than 10 years old. The workspace design does not provide adequate work
surface area to complete daily tasks efficiently and includes a significant amount of unusable space due to its
layout.
The proposed redesign will maximize the available workspace and improve functionality. The updated
workstation will be more ergonomic and support staff productivity.
Financial Impact
The project cost will come from the Building Reserve Fund. This fund is dedicated for improvements,
replacements, and retrofits of existing city building systems. The anticipated cost of this project is
approximately $8,000, including furniture, installation, materials, wall coverings, and carpet repair. Attached is
a quote for the materials and installation. Building Maintenance staff plans to complete some of the work from
the quote, which would decrease the overall cost.

Page 515 of 517Non-Binding Budgetary Estimate
This Rough Order of Magnitude estimate is being provided for budgetary and planning purposes only. It is non-binding and is not considered a contractable offer for sale of Axon
goods or services.
Tax is estimated based on rates applicable at date of quote and subject to change at time of invoicing. If a tax exemption certificate should be applied, please submit
prior to invoicing.
Exceptions to Standard Terms and Conditions
Rewrite Estimates
Estimated Amounts and Contract Terminations. Any amounts stated as due under existing or terminated contracts — including contract transfer balances carried forward to
new or pending contracts — are estimates based on payments received as of the calculation date. These estimates may be adjusted if new contracts are not executed on the
anticipated dates or if expected payments are not made.
Refresh Shipment Timing
Technology Assurance Plan (TAP) Refresh Prior to Renewal. For Customers with expiring agreements that include TAP refresh rights, Axon may, in its discretion, ship
refresh hardware under the existing contract while renewal or replacement agreements are in progress. Any such shipments will be deemed made under the terms of the
existing contract until the new contract is fully executed, after which any applicable updates, fees, or adjustments will apply.
Shipment Timing
Shipment Variance. Estimated shipment dates are provided for planning purposes only and are not guarantees. Axon may ship hardware before or after the estimated
shipment date, and failure to meet an estimated shipment date will not, by itself, constitute a breach, provided Axon uses commercially reasonable efforts to meet estimated
shipment dates.
