Dahl, City Administrator(SEAL) ## 4B ## City of Woodbury, Minnesota ## Office of City Administrator ## Council Letter 26-74 April 22, 2026 ## TO:The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council ## FROM:Jeffrey J. Dahl, City Administrator ## SUBJECT:Proclamation Recognizing Public Service Recognition Week ## Summary The month of May contains several annual recognitions for public employees and more specifically, for public safety workers. These recognitions include the following: 1. Public Service Recognition Week: Annually during the first full week of May 2. Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Week: Annually during the third full week of May 3. Peace Officers Memorial Day: Annually on May 15 4.

These employees are the administrative assistants, technicians, specialists, planners, inspectors, engineers, public service workers, police officers, firefighters, paramedics and the communications, technology, finance, recreation, managerial and administrative professionals in the City of Woodbury organization. The services these individuals perform are connected to the basic daily activities of the residents and businesses of the City of Woodbury. They ensure Woodbury remains a sustainable and attractive community providing a high quality of life for its residents and positive economic environment for its businesses. The success of the organization is reflected in the positive response towards City services received in the citizen survey. ## Peace Officers Memorial Day & Police Week The first recognition of Police Week and Peace Officers Memorial Day was signed by President Kennedy in 1962 following a joint resolution of Congress. National Police Week pays special recognition to those law enforcement officers who have lost their lives in the line of duty for the safety and protection of others. ## Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Week The first recognition of EMS Week was authorized by President Gerald Ford in 1974 to celebrate EMS practitioners and the important work they do in our nation’s communities. Back then, EMS was a new profession, and EMS practitioners had only just started to be recognized as a critical component of emergency medicine and the public health safety net. A lot has changed since then. EMS is now firmly established as an essential public function and a vital component of the medical care continuum. On any given day, EMS practitioners help save lives by responding to medical emergencies, including heart attack, difficulty breathing, a fall or accident, drowning, cardiac arrest, stroke, drug overdose or acute illness. EMS may provide both basic and advanced medical care at the scene of an emergency and enroute to a hospital. EMS practitioners care for their patients' medical needs and show care and compassion to their patients in their most difficult moments. ## Written By:Jean Schowalter, Senior Human Resources Coordinator ## Approved Through:Jason Posel, Public Safety Director/Police Chief ## Angela Gorall, Deputy City Administrator ## Attachment:Proclamation Proclamation of the City of Woodbury, ## Washington County, Minnesota Public Service Recognition Week – May 3 through May 9, 2026 ## Peace Officers Memorial Day – May 15, 2026 National Police Week – May 10 through May 16, 2026 Emergency Medical Services Week – May 17 through May 23, 2026 WHEREAS, the services of City of Woodbury employees are of vital importance to the health, safety, and well-being of the citizens and vitality of the businesses of the City of Woodbury; and WHEREAS, the members of the Woodbury Public Safety Department Police Division play an essential role in working collaboratively with federal, state, county, and other law enforcement agencies to promote safety and safeguard freedoms of Woodbury residents; and WHEREAS, the City of Woodbury acknowledges the sacrifices that Public Safety employees make in serving the community with courage and compassion every day, as well as those officers both locally and nationally who have sustained injuries or lost their lives in the performance of their duties; WHEREAS, emergency medical services is a vital public service and the Woodbury Emergency Medical Services teams use their medical expertise, courage and compassion to provide lifesaving medical care to those in need 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

She noted that the essay contest is run by the League of Minnesota Cities, and Mr. Johnson won. Mr. Johnson explained that he won the Mayor of the Day essay contest because he wrote about chickens and ducks. He added that his mom and he want to have chickens, but they are not allowed in the City. He mentioned that there would be some rules to allow chickens, such as no roosters, a fence to keep coyotes away, and a maximum of six birds. Mayor Burt mentioned that Mr. Johnson was published in the League of Minnesota Cities magazine and received an award. B.Proclamation Affirming City Values and Action Related to Immigration Enforcement and Opposing a Federal Immigration Detention Center in Woodbury Mayor Burt thanked the community for their passion and for bringing the matter to the Council’s attention and demanding something they find important. The City Council has been working together with staff to be responsive to the concerns. Mayor Burt noted she would be reading a Proclamation affirming the City values and action related to immigration enforcement and opposing a federal immigration detention center in the City. She explained that over the past several months, staff and the Council have been actively working on the issues and providing updates to the community along the way. The Proclamation serves to formally memorialize the efforts and clearly articulate the City’s position. She recognized that many community members were expecting the item to be on the previous agenda. She clarified the process for setting the Council agenda. The City Administrator establishes the Council agenda, and residents are encouraged to use the Open Forum to address the Council on items that are not listed on the agenda. During the Open Forum, the Council does not take immediate action; instead, members take time to consider the information, consult with staff, and determine the appropriate next steps. Following the March 25 th meeting, the Council reviewed the request submitted by residents for further consideration. The Council determined ## City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday, April 08, 2026 Page 2 of 8 that it was important to go on record and to respond to the community’s request. As a result, the Proclamation has been placed on the agenda. She noted that the Proclamation does not include restrictions on the use of municipal property due to legal and practical considerations, which would make implementation difficult to enforce. If the City becomes aware of any unlawful activity or actions that do not align with the City’s values on municipal property, the City has the right to revisit the issue. She stated that the City opposes the use of any buildings or property in Woodbury as a detention center and the City is committed to ensuring Woodbury is a place where everyone feels safe, supported, and included. Councilmember Wilson explained that she was surprised that it was a Proclamation because the Council had decided a while ago not to have Proclamations since the Council was getting many requests. She wondered if it should be a Resolution instead. She added that a Proclamation raises awareness while a Resolution establishes policy or gives a position of the City. City Administrator Jeffrey Dahl explained that staff felt like a Proclamation would be more appropriate due to what the community has gone through in the past few months. He added that it warranted a clarification of where the City is with its position and values. Staff agreed that a Proclamation would utilize a public document to explain what the City’s stance is as a community. Mayor Burt read a Proclamation in full, affirming City values and action related to immigration enforcement and opposing a federal immigration detention center in Woodbury. Mayor Burt opened an opportunity for the Council to share comments. Councilmember Morris thanked Mayor Burt for her leadership and for the relentless efforts of staff, and for purposely providing the community with answers and support. He recognized that some of the efforts made by the City may not feel like enough and expressed his appreciation for the deep levels of passion that the community has. He explained why he has been using the phrase “performative politics” and noted that the Councilmembers are not professional politicians, but instead are community members who chose to serve the community. He expressed appreciation for the Council and the various views they all hold while remaining professional. He noted his personal definition of leadership in his role is to understand a problem and an issue, and work to find a resolution. He added that the Council does not approach issues through a political lens and simply reviews things for what they are and what they believe the best policy or direction is for the community. The Council does not deliberate or act based on political ideology. He expressed his understanding that the community wants the Council to be more visible and chart a path that is stronger in rhetoric. He recognized the desire to have more outspoken elected officials. He explained that the world does not need more politicians angling for more camera time and viral clips. The world does not need false hope and instead needs legitimate debate, discussion, and action. He mentioned that he does not seek attention and will not tell people what they want to hear because it will make people vote for him. He applauded the community for using their voice and requesting more actions from the Council. He added that he would not lie to the community and make false promises or empty hope. He stated he supports the Proclamation and does not want an ICE detention facility in the community. He added that he does not want any government office or official to terrorize a community to create fear and violate people’s rights. He stated he wants all elements of the government to honor the rights that people have, to treat people fairly and humanely, and to enforce the laws with integrity. The City government does not have special authority or jurisdiction to dictate the application of State or federal laws. What the City can do is to implore all government officials to treat the community and those who visit it by honoring the rights of people and to treat everyone with respect. He encourages the community to use their voices and to think about what they are asking and if the person or entity they are asking has the authority or influence necessary to bring the change that is being requested. He encouraged the community to work together to bring real change to the issues. C.Report on April 8, 2026 Workshop Closed Session Item Regarding the Lee Property Negotiation City Attorney Kevin Sandstrom stated the closed session was pursuant to Statute 13d.05 subdivision 3B. The active litigation matter was the Raymond Lee versus the City of Woodbury case, which has been ongoing. He noted that during the process, he received direction from the City Council regarding ongoing settlement discussions and other strategies in the case. If there is a settlement that is reached, it will be brought back to the Council for formal approval. ## Open Forum Catherine Wegener, City resident, stated she attended the Council meeting two weeks ago to show her support for a proposed resolution. During the meeting, she heard concerns regarding the Council’s limited authority to control federal actions in the City. She explained that she is an immigration attorney and over the past year, the federal government has thrown around its weight to strip power and agency away from individuals and municipalities. Rather than focusing on the limitations that the City faces, she asked the Council to reframe their thinking and utilize the power and authority that they have. She noted that the immigration system is not going to be fixed anytime soon, and the City needs to protect the community against the broken system. She thanked the Council for drafting a Proclamation that demonstrates the commitment to educate and communicate with constituents. She added that she hopes that the Council continues to share information and update the community with the Council’s efforts. A Proclamation is not a Resolution and is not enough. She added that the City is up against a ruthless and aggressive federal government. Agents occupied the City, broke laws, violated rights and freedoms, and terrorized residents. She explained that the community needs formal and official action by the Council that carries legal weight. There is nothing in the proposed Resolution that is beyond the City’s authority. By passing the proposed Resolution and taking the outlined actions, the City builds a foundation from which legal recourse can be pursued if the federal government violates it and sends a message in solidarity with many other cities that have adopted similar Resolutions. She stated she is asking for a Resolution because a response to Operation Metro Surge deserves a vote. She explained that as a citizen of a democracy has the responsibility to hold her elected officials accountable. She added that she would like to know which of her Councilmembers would stand up for her and her neighbor the next time federal agents are in town. ## City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday, April 08, 2026 Page 3 of 8 Amy Stedman, City resident, explained why the City Council should have passed a Resolution instead of a Proclamation. A Proclamation is what the Council does for Arbor Day. She added that it is about whether families and residents in the City are safe without wondering if City property is being used against them. The Resolution that the community submitted to the City clearly states that ICE and DHS may not use City-owned property as staging grounds for immigration enforcement. The language is not included in the Proclamation, and the community wants the Council to explain why. She noted the list of what the City has done throughout the process. She explained that what the City has done so far is the bare minimum. Answering questions is not policy, posting FAQs is not protection, and a newsletter column does not stop ICE from using Ojibway Park as a staging ground. Doing the minimum does not mean that the job is finished. Offering a Proclamation in response to a petition does not finish the job. She added that the Parks and Natural Resource Commission unanimously brought up a recommendation to the Council asking for stronger safety protection for young riders on ebikes, and instead, the Council deferred, delayed, and sent to a workshop. A Proclamation affirms values, a Resolution requires a vote. She added that the community wants the Council to vote so that it is on record. The Community deserves to know who is standing up for them and who is not. She noted that the community showed up in January, submitted a petition in March, and it has not been a moment that passes. She asked that the Council take up the Resolution as submitted, with the property restrictions language included, and vote on it. Tori Nathan, City resident, stated she was in support of the proposed Resolution that was presented to the Council regarding immigration and customs enforcement. She noted that there has been a lot of discussion regarding the detention center. She explained that she would like to address the portion of the Proclamation that does not address the use of City property. In summary, the proposed Resolution states that the City shall restrict the use of City-owned, City-leased, or City-controlled property for the purposes of staging, coordinating, or supporting civil immigration enforcement except where clearly required by federal or State law. She added that it is not an unreasonable thing to do, and other cities have done it, such as Chicago and San Francisco. She noted that she has heard that it is not legal to interfere with ICE or DHS’s operation, but it is a gross oversimplification. State and local authorities cannot directly regulate the federal government, but they can stop the federal government from commandeering City property for federal purposes. She stated it was supported in the courts and referenced a 2017 case where the Ninth Circuit Court addressed it in California. The goal is not to have the City illegally obstruct immigration enforcement. The goal is to implement reasonable and meaningful restrictions that would prevent Woodbury from being complicit with ICE’s activities. Allowing ICE to use City-owned properties for enforcement activities endangers residents, and the City can do something about it by passing the proposed Resolution. Assistant City Administrator/City Clerk Ashleigh Sullivan mentioned that there were two online comments. The first comment was from Brian Fruchtman who stated he was jogging on the side of the road due to ice. A Woodbury police officer asked him to stop. He explained that when he did not stop, due to the psychological and physical effects of lowering his pulse, and submitting to harassment, he beat him up. He stated he appeared before the Council and made a police complaint. The police chief called and told him to run on the side and to stop when an officer tells him to. He added that he left a message for the mayor and left another message a month later to contact him to let him know if anything had been done, but he did not receive a phone call back. The administrator accepted responsibility via email for allowing future violence. Woodbury needs to replace the unethical City Councilmembers supporting abuse, including the mayor, police chief, and administrator, unless they want authoritarian violence against law-abiding citizens. Ms. Sullivan noted that the second online comment was from Belinda Reid, who asked how the people requesting the Proclamation were vetted, especially that they are actual residents of Woodbury. She wondered if the Proclamation was representative of all 85,000 residents. ## Consent Agenda ## Item A1. Approval of Council Workshop Minutes— March 25, 2026 2.

Housing and Economic Development Manager Jamie Fritts stated the City of Woodbury receives federal funds from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) via the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and the HOME Investment Partnerships Program ## City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday, April 08, 2026 Page 5 of 8 (HOME). Woodbury accesses CDBG directly from HUD but accesses HOME funds as a sub-recipient member of the Dakota County HOME Consortium. Each year, HUD requires the City to create an Annual Action Plan (AAP) to determine specific investment strategies of the funds on a July-to-June program year basis. Woodbury may invest its allocation of CDBG and HOME in a variety of ways, including projects such as economic development, housing, public facilities, or public services. The City Council adopted a motion on February 25, 2026, identifying affordable housing as well as cleanup of contaminated sites as high priorities for the use of HUD funds. Mr. Fritts noted that recipients of HUD CDBG/HOME funding must adopt an Annual Action Plan (AAP) that prioritizes goals of the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan; define specific investment strategies to achieve goals; and evaluate past performance. Mr. Fritts reviewed the public process. He noted that on February 25, 2026, the City Council made a motion establishing affordable housing and cleanup of contaminated sites as 2026 AAP high funding priorities. On April 8, 2026, there was a public hearing on the draft 2026 AAP and a substantial amendment to the 2025- 2029 Consolidated Plan. The public comment period regarding the 2026 AAP and substantial amendment to the 2025- 2029 Consolidated Plan will be open from April 9, 2026, through May 8, 2026 (pending). On May 13, 2026, the Council will consider the adoption of the 2026 AAP. Mr. Fritts presented the 2026 anticipated resources. The total anticipated CDBG funds are $406,639, and the total anticipated HOME funds are $99,000. He reviewed the proposed PY26 activities. The draft 2026 AAP allocates CDBG funds to the following: $224,000 of the CDBG for a Two Rivers Community Land Trust project to benefit income-eligible homebuyers. $121,639 of CDBG for a City-administered private ash tree removal project to benefit income-eligible homeowners. $56,000 of CDBG for program administration expenditures. Mr. Fritts explained that the Two Rivers Community Land Trust project would include acquiring three single-family homes in Woodbury, rehabilitating and modernizing the homes for resale, reselling the homes to homebuyers earning between 60-80% of the area median income, and that homes would be entered into a trust with a 99-year period of affordability. The Private Ash Tree Removal project would include assisting income-eligible homeowners with ash tree removal. It would cover 100% of the cost for removal with no repayment required. Funds are paid directly to the contractor on behalf of the homeowner. Staff anticipates assisting approximately 50 homeowners. Mr. Fritts mentioned that there are no viable projects that have been identified for the use of HOME Partnership Funds in 2026. The funds have a narrow scope for use, there is a longer timeline to spend the funds, and staff will monitor potential future requests and uses and bring recommendations to the Council. Mr. Fritts stated implementation of the ash tree removal activity requires a substantial amendment to the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan. The amendment would add “Cleanup of Contaminated Sites” as a goal of the current Consolidated Plan. Substantial amendments must follow the same public process as the approval of an AAP. The substantial amendment will be adopted concurrently with the 2026 AAP public process. Mr. Fritts stated that staff recommends the Council to adopt a motion opening a public comment period regarding the draft 2026 Annual Action Plan and the substantial amendment to the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan on April 09, 2026, and closing on May 08, 2026. Mayor Burt invited the representative from Two Rivers Community Land Trust to share more. Executive Director of Two Rivers Community Land Trust, Jamar Smith, explained that Two Rivers Community Land Trust provides permanent affordable housing for low to moderate-income individuals, families, and households earning up to 80% area median income in the County. The goal is to provide a pathway to homeownership for people in Washington County who would not otherwise be able to afford a home in the area. He stated that they currently have 81 homes in trust, and three are in Woodbury. By the end of the year, there will be 13 more homes with funding that they have already secured, and an additional three will be in the County. Mayor Burt asked Mr. Smith where the other funding source was from. Mr. Smith replied that a large amount of the funds comes from the State and the County. Councilmember Santini asked if homeowners pay the Two Rivers trust, or if they get funds from another lender. Mr. Smith replied that the homeowners get a traditional loan. He explained that they have 11 lenders that understand the model and provide secure and conventional loans. Mr. Fritts explained that the City is an entitlement community, and the CDA is an entitlement community, so the funds that they give to Two Rivers cannot be spent in Woodbury because entitlement communities cannot overlap. He added that there are not many Two Rivers Community Land Trust homes in the City because the CDA has been a large partner in Washington County as a whole. In order for Two Rivers Community Land Trust to get a boost from the City, it must come as a CDBG. Mayor Burt asked how long the current three homes have been in the City. Mr. Fritts replied that one has been owned by the same owner for over a decade, one home was acquired in the winter, and he believed the third home was newer. Mayor Burt moved, seconded by Councilmember Morris, to close the public hearing. ## Voting in Favor:Wilson, Morris, Santini, Burt ## City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday, April 08, 2026 Page 6 of 8 ## Absent: Stafford Mayor Burt opened an opportunity for discussion and questions from the Council. Councilmember Santini asked if a homeowner through Two Rivers Communities Land Trust could utilize a loan through the HRA grant program. Mr. Fritts replied that they would be if they met all of the eligibility requirements. Councilmember Wilson asked if people needed to be in a specific area to qualify for the ash tree removal program. Mr. Fritts replied that people do not need to be in a specific area since it is individual people qualifying. Councilmember Santini asked what the plan was to promote the ash tree removal program. She asked if there were areas in the City where ash tree removal was not happening as often. Mr. Fritts replied that staff has discussed how to roll out and promote the project. Councilmember Wilson pointed out that the Council was not approving anything but was opening a 30-day public comment period. Councilmember Morris asked why the item was in front of the Council and not the HRA for the CDBG funding. Mr. Fritts explained that the HRA is a separate entity, and the City is the recipient of the funds. Community Development Director Janelle Schmitz added that the City is the entitlement entity. The CDBG funds have to go to the City and not the HRA. When the HRA had loans, the City would give the money to the HRA in order to do the loans. Councilmember Morris asked if the HRA could use LAHA funds for the Two Rivers Community Land Trust. Mr. Fritts replied that that would be possible. Ms. Schmitz added that under the LAHA fund, there is a category for development assistance, so it would qualify under that. Councilmember Morris mentioned that he assumed modernizing the home would include ensuring the house is code-compliant and that it would qualify for FHA loans. Mr. Smith replied that the homeowners have to secure a conventional loan, and they do not do FHA loans for the properties. He added that modernizing the house includes ensuring that it is safe and energy efficient. He explained that if there are funds left over, they work with the homeowners to modernize the house accordingly. Each house has about $60,000-$70,000 set aside for renovations. Councilmember Santini wondered if funds could be used for rental assistance. Mr. Fritts replied that he has not looked into the home rental assistance process. He mentioned that it would likely include ongoing rental assistance or emergency assistance. He mentioned he would need to look into it more. He mentioned that the Statute says that the City can give funds to agencies that administer social service programs and eviction prevention programs. Councilmember Santini moved, seconded by Councilmember Morris, to open a 30-day public comment period regarding the 2026 Annual Action Plan (AAP) and the substantial amendment to the 2025-2029 Consolidated Plan, opening on April 9, 2026, and closing on the end of the day May 8, 2026. Voting via voice: Kim Wilson – aye Donna Stafford – absent Steve Morris – aye Jennifer Santini – aye Anne Burt – aye ## Discussion No items scheduled ## City Administrator’s Report Mr. Dahl mentioned that construction on the public safety building will begin at the end of the month. City Hall will be the public-facing entity for police and fire/EMS. Questions regarding police, fire/EMS can be directed to City Hall. The public works department will handle a lot of storage and staff, and fire, and EMS will be spread out amongst other fire stations. The old County building will house most of the administrative staff. The same level of service will be maintained during construction. Mr. Dahl noted that the Eagle Valley Golf Course is open. He mentioned the Central Park art wall and noted that it was a hidden treasure. There is local art highlighted on the wall. The next Woodbury Green Talks will be on April 9 th at 6:00 p.m. at Central Park. Transportation Report (2nd meeting of the month, April-October) ## City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday, April 08, 2026 Page 7 of 8 Engineering Director Chris Hartzell stated the active projects in the City include the Bailey Road water tower, the water treatment pipeline project, and the Bailey Road and Fairway Drive traffic signal. He mentioned that the Bailey Road water tower project is anticipating raising the top bowl between April 30 and May 15. The final completion and commission will be in January 2027. He reviewed the water treatment plant and pipeline project. He encouraged the community to check out the water treatment plant pipeline project website to receive updates throughout the summer. He highlighted Valley Creek Road from Woodbury Drive to East Woodcrest Drive and Dancing Waters Parkway and explained that it is reduced to one lane in the westbound direction. Bailey Road is closed from Radio Drive to Salem Drive for six weeks. He stated they would not open the full closure of westbound Valley Creek Road until the Bailey Road construction is completed. He added that they anticipate only having one east/west connection closed down at a time. He stated that the Bailey Road and Fairway Drive traffic signal construction began on Monday, April 6 th, and is coordinating with the water treatment plant pipeline closures. The signal is anticipated to be operational in July. Mr. Hartzell reviewed the 2026 construction projects: ## 2025 Roadway Rehabilitation Project – Eastview Road ## 2026 Roadway Rehabilitation Project ## Woodlane Drive Pavement Rehabilitation Project Valley Creek Road Trail Project (Colby Lake Underpass to Dancing Waters Parkway) ## Valley Creek Road and Eagle Creek Lane Traffic Signal ## Bailey Road and Settlers Ridge Parkway Intersection Improvement Project ## Bailey Road and Manning Avenue (TH 95) Intersection Improvement Project ## Bailey Road Trail Project (Woodland Drive to La Lake Park) ## 2026 Pavement Rejuvenator Project Fiber to the Home Mr. Hartzell mentioned that the 2026 Roadway Rehabilitation Project is anticipated to begin in April and be completed in October. There will be a pre-construction open house meeting scheduled for Thursday, April 16 th, for residents to learn more information. The Woodlane Drive Pavement Rehabilitation Project would occur from late May or early June until August or September. There will be multiple phases in the project, and staff will work with the school district. The Valley Creek Road Trail Project will be coordinated with the water treatment plant pipeline project. A new trail will be constructed and connected to the existing trail that goes through the park system. Mayor Burt pointed out that there is a lot of tree removal anticipated going east on Woodbury Drive. She asked if the tree removal was due to a utility easement or a trail. Mr. Hartzell replied that it would be due to both. He added that it is within the City’s right-of-way. He added that they would not be able to replace the trees in the area due to the water pipeline. Mr. Hartzell mentioned that one of the most dangerous intersections in the County is at Valley Creek Road and Eagle Creek Lane, which is why a traffic signal will be installed. The Bailey Road and Settlers Ridge Parkway Intersection Improvement Project is anticipated to begin in May and be completed in August. The intersection will be closed for construction. The Bailey Road and Manning Avenue Intersection Improvement Project will include a new roundabout construction on Bailey Road. There will be a temporary bypass installed during construction to keep traffic flowing. There will be a section of Bailey Road that will be closed. The Bailey Road Trail Project (Woodlane to La Lake Park) is being constructed by the County. The County is considering expanding Bailey Road going west through Newport. He mentioned that the 2026 Rejuvenator Project will make a difference in the pavement condition index score. The anticipated construction schedule for the Intrepid Fiber to Home would be from April 2026 until December 2028. He displayed a photo of the neighborhoods and when they would be served. He noted that they would begin by building a backbone. Mayor Burt mentioned that the map includes a large portion of the metro area and asked if Mr. Hartzell could provide a map of just Woodbury during the next meeting to provide additional clarity. Mr. Hartzell noted that the map is on woodburymn.gov/Fiber. Mayor Burt asked if any homes were serviced yet. Mr. Hartzell replied that they needed to build a backbone, and then they would be able to complete an entire neighborhood in a week. Individual property owners will be able to decide if they would like to connect. He agreed to bring back a clearer map to the Council. He noted that there will not be much impact on communities, but residents will notice the construction crews mobilizing around the City. Mayor Burt asked how homeowners would be communicated to. Mr. Hartzell replied that the providers would follow the City’s communication plan and would hang door hangers with information on how to contact them. He added that staff would include the information on the City’s website. The primary communication would come from the contractors. Mr. Hartzell stated the roadway and trail closure map is included on the website at woodburymn.gov/WaterTreatment. He encouraged the community to sign up for InTouch to receive updates from the City. ## Adjournment Mayor Burt moved, seconded by Councilmember Morris, to adjourn the meeting at 9:06 p.m. ## Voting in Favor:Wilson, Morris, Santini, Burt ## City Council Meeting Minutes Wednesday, April 08, 2026 Page 8 of 8 ## Absent: Stafford Respectfully submitted, _________________________________________ ## Ashleigh Sullivan, Assistant City Administrator/City Clerk Approved by the Woodbury City Council on April 22, 2026. ## 6B ## City of Woodbury, Minnesota ## Office of City Administrator ## Council Letter 26-76 April 22, 2026 ## To:The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council ## From:Jeffrey J.

Dahl, City Administrator(SEAL) ## 6E ## City of Woodbury, Minnesota ## Office of City Administrator ## Council Letter 26-79 April 22, 2026 ## To:The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council ## From:Jeffrey J. Dahl, City Administrator ## Subject:Approval of Bailey Development Environmental Assessment Worksheet Negative ## Declaration of Need for an Environmental Impact Statement ## Summary An Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) has been prepared for the proposed Bailey Development project. This project is approximately 184 acres and is located north of Bailey Road and east of the boundary between the City of Maplewood and the City of Woodbury. The EAW examined the potential environmental effects of development of a proposed mixed residential, retail, and business park. The proposed project will construct up to 360 attached residential units, 89,600 square feet of retail, and up to 660,400 square feet of business park (e.g., light industrial, warehousing). Approximately 29 acres of Public/Semi-Public recreational area will also be included in the project area. State and local agencies and residents have had an opportunity to comment on the EAW and staff has responded to all substantive comments received. Projects that meet or exceed the thresholds described in Minnesota State Statute Chapter 4410, part 4410.4300 are required to complete an EAW. The Bailey Development project triggered the need for an EAW under Minnesota Environmental Quality Board (EQB) Rules, Subpart 32: Mixed residential and industrial-commercial projects. The EAW is not meant to approve or deny a project but instead act as a source of information to guide other approvals and permitting decisions. Based on the findings from the EAW, this project does not have the potential for significant environmental impacts with appropriate mitigation as outlined in the EAW, and there is no need for the preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS). The attached resolution formally approves the following: 1. The EAW was prepared in compliance with the procedures of the Minnesota Environmental Policy Act and Minnesota Rules, Subpart 32: Mixed residential and industrial-commercial projects; 2. The EAW satisfactorily addressed the issues for which existing information could have been reasonably obtained; 3. The Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and the Record of Decision on the EAW adequately addressed all submitted comments, and will be distributed by staff in accordance with the EQB rules; and 4. The City Council makes a Negative Declaration, and an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) is not required. ## Council Letter 26-79 April 22, 2026 Page 2 ## Recommendation Staff recommends Council adopt the attached resolution making a Negative Declaration of Need for an Environmental Impact Statement for the Bailey Development project. ## Fiscal Implications Not applicable ## Policy Not applicable ## Public Process The EAW for the Bailey Development was finalized February 17, 2026 (Bailey Development EAW). Notice of the availability of the EAW for public review was published in the EQB Monitor on February 24, 2026. Copies of the EAW were sent to the required reviewing agencies prior to the publication date. Public notice stating that a copy of the EAW was available for review at Woodbury City Hall and on the City’s website was sent to the Pioneer Press as well as to the City’s InTouch email notification list. The required 30-day comment period ended on March 26, 2026. Comment letters were received from the following seven government agencies the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR), Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA), Metropolitan ## Council (Met Council), Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT), Washington Conservation ## District (WCD), Ramsey-Washington Metro Watershed District (RWMWD), Washington County, and the City of Newport. None of the comments recommended the preparation of an EIS. In addition to the government agencies, the City received 15 emails from the public. A summary of the comments and responses are included in the Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision document (Response to Comments, Findings of Fact, and Record of Decision). ## Background The Bailey Development project is a proposed mixed residential, retail, and business park on approximately 184 acres in the City of Woodbury, Washington County, Minnesota. The project includes the construction of up to 360 attached residential units, 89,600 square feet of retail, and up to 660,400 square feet of business park (e.g., light industrial, warehousing). Approximately 29 acres of Public/Semi-Public recreational area will also be included in the project area. The project will extend Century Avenue (C.S.A.H. 120) from its existing termini at Carver Avenue to Bailey Road. One full-access intersection will be added to Bailey Road at the proposed Century Avenue (C.S.A.H. 120) intersection. The project will include a roadway network, stormwater infrastructure, and the installation of municipal sewer and water systems. The purpose of an EAW is to examine the anticipated environmental impacts of a project and determine if the project will have the potential for significant environmental effects. If it is determined that there is no potential for significant environmental effects, a negative declaration is issued. If it is determined that there is the potential for significant environmental effects, more detailed environmental review in the form of an EIS must be ordered. ## Council Letter 26-79 April 22, 2026 Page 3 After considering the anticipated environmental impacts outlined in the EAW; the required mitigation measures identified in the EAW to address potential traffic impacts; comments received from the reviewing agencies; and the responses to the comments; staff has determined that there is no potential for significant environmental effects associated with development of the Bailey Development project if mitigation measures detailed in the EAW are followed. Project site plans will incorporate the mitigation measures identified in the EAW; therefore, no EIS is necessary. ## Written By:Jenifer McLoughlin, Environmental Resources Manager ## Approved Through:Chris Hartzell, Engineering Director ## Attachment:Resolution Resolution 26-41 Resolution of the City of Woodbury, ## Washington County, Minnesota Making a Negative Declaration of Need for an Environmental Impact Statement for the Bailey ## Development Project ## WHEREAS, pursuant to Minnesota Environmental Quality Board (EQB) Rules, Chapter 4410, part 4410.4300, Subpart 32, the City of Woodbury as the responsible governmental unit completed an Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) for the property identified as Bailey Development; and WHEREAS, pursuant to Minnesota EQB Rules, Chapter 4410, Subpart 32: Mixed residential and industrial-commercial projects, the project meets the thresholds for an EAW for mixed residential and industrial-commercial projects; and WHEREAS, an EAW was prepared and copies were distributed to all persons and agencies on the official EQB mailing list prior to February 24, 2026; and WHEREAS, notice of the availability of the EAW for public review for a 30-day comment period was published in the EQB Monitor on February 24, 2026; and WHEREAS, a press release was submitted to announce the availability of the EAW to interested parties; and WHEREAS, the Bailey Development is expected to comply with all the City of Woodbury and review agency standards; and WHEREAS, the 30-day comment period ended on March 26, 2026, at 4:30 p.m., and all comments received have been considered; and WHEREAS, none of the comments received recommended preparation of an Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) or suggested that the project had the potential to cause significant environmental effects.

The purpose of the program is to provide cities and counties with incentives to develop, track and report performance data on the critical services. The CLRI was tasked with establishing the set of measures that cities/counties will report to the State in order to meet the requirements for receiving the benefits of the program. The benefits include receiving a reimbursement of $0.14 (fourteen cents) per capita, not to exceed $25,000. From 2011 through 2025, the City participated in the State’s performance reporting program and received a reimbursement of $11,389 for participation in 2025. ## Recommendation Staff recommends Council adopt the attached resolution authorizing to participate in the Performance Measurement Program established by the State of Minnesota and the Council on Local Results and Innovation. ## Fiscal Implications Participation in this program provides the City with a reimbursement of $0.14 per capita on an annual basis, not to exceed $25,000, which would be paid in December. A revenue estimate of $11,000 was budgeted as part of the 2026 Adopted Budget-General Fund. ## Policy ## None ## Public Process This is the third public process for this item. ## Council Letter 26-80 April 22, 2026 Page 2 ## Background In order to participate in the program and receive the benefits, the City Council must formally adopt the set of performance measures on an annual basis (see Standard Measures for Cities). The City of Woodbury has a long-standing performance reporting program and already tracks the minimum number of performance measures required; therefore, the City will not be required to develop any new measures or procedures to participate in this program. In addition, the City will report on the adopted measures to the State Auditor’s Office by their July 1 reporting deadline. Since this is a voluntary program, the City could decide to withdraw its participation in a future year if it no longer agrees with the requirements of the program. At the July 22 Council workshop meeting, Council will be presented the City’s 2025 Performance Measures. ## Written By: Gaonou Vang, Management Analyst ## Approved Through:Angela Gorall, Deputy City Administrator ## Attachments:1.

Dahl, City Administrator(SEAL) ## 6G ## City of Woodbury, Minnesota ## Office of City Administrator ## Council Letter 26-81 April 22, 2026 ## To:The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council ## From:Jeffrey Dahl, City Administrator ## Subject:Approval of 2025 Year End Transfers ## Summary During the process of closing the financial records for 2025, various operating transfers are necessary between funds. These transfers need to be acted on by the City Council before the proceeds can be transferred to the specific funds. The transfers that are being presented for approval excludes any transfers that were included in the 2025 Adopted Budget or were previously approved by Council in a budget amendment. ## Recommendation Staff recommends Council adopt the attached resolution authorizing the transfer of funds between certain funds. ## Fiscal Implications There are sufficient funds in the General Fund for the recommended transfers. ## Policy Woodbury City Code Chapter 2, Sec. 2-312. - Closing, transfer and creation of funds. The City Council shall possess the sole authority to close funds and transfer sums of money between funds. The CFO/Controller is given the authority to create new funds as necessary. ## Public Process Not applicable. ## Background There are four transfers from the General Fund that staff is recommending for approval. Per policy, at year-end the City maintains 30 percent of the following year’s General Fund adopted budget as cash flow and the excess funds are transferred to other funds as designated by the Council. Staff is recommending to increase the unassigned fund balance in the General Fund for operational cash ## Council Letter 26-81 April 22, 2026 Page 2 flow timing needs and maintain the total fund balance at approximately 43 percent of the next year’s General Fund adopted budget. Of the 2025 excess, staff recommends transferring an amount of $4,044,322 to other funds as follows: 1. Transfer of $300,000 to the EMS Fire Fund. The 2025 Adopted General Fund Budget includes an operating transfer-in from the EMS Fire Fund for personnel and EMS associated operating costs. Due to unfilled positions in 2025 and other related expenditures, budget savings were realized, and these funds can be transferred back to the EMS Fire Fund for future needs. 2. Transfer of $2,300,000, the remaining excess of fund balance per policy, to the Capital Improvement Fund. 3. Transfer of $1,304,322 to the Public Safety Expansion Fund for project needs. This recommendation was identified as a funding source at the February 25, 2026, Council meeting approving the Public Safety Expansion project, awarding construction contracts, and budget amendments. 4. Transfer of $140,000, the positive expenditure variance of the Street Lighting Division, to the Street Lighting Utility Fund. Beginning with the 2026 Adopted Budget, the Street Lighting Utility Fund accounts for the expenses previously accounted for in the General Fund - Street Lighting Division. These transfers need to be acted on by the City Council before the proceeds can be transferred to the specific funds presented on the resolution. ## Written By:Lynn Haseleu, Assistant Chief Financial Officer/Budget Manager ## Approved Through:Angela Gorall, Deputy City Administrator ## Attachment:Resolution Resolution 26-43 Resolution of the City of Woodbury, ## Washington County, Minnesota ## Authorizing the Transfer of Funds between Certain Funds WHEREAS, various operating transfers are necessary to account for activity between the funds of the City; and WHEREAS, these transfers need to be acted on by the City Council before the proceeds can be transferred to the specific funds.

Dahl, City Administrator Subject:Approval of Budget Carryovers from 2025 to 2026; Authorization for Use of Funds ## Summary The 2025 adjusted budgets included funds to do several projects or purchases that were not completed or received by the end of 2025. Staff is now recommending to Council that these funds be carried forward to the 2026 budget. Also, with consolidation of all roadway improvement projects into the Street Reconstruction/Maintenance Fund in the 2026 Adopted Budget, projects still in progress in the Municipal State Aid (MSA) Roadway Construction Fund at the end of 2025 require Council authorization for use of funds to appropriate project completion. ## Recommendation Staff recommends Council adopt the attached resolution approving various carryovers to the 2026 budget and authorization for use of funds for the Municipal State Aid Roadway Construction Fund. ## Fiscal Implications Carryovers are generally funded from fund/reserve balance. However, since the appropriation was not expended in 2025, it was automatically transferred to fund/reserve balance at December 31, 2025, in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles. Funding for 2025 carryovers will come from the use of fund/reserve balance for all requested carryovers except those that have specific funding sources. Sufficient fund balance is also available in the MSA Roadway Construction Fund for authorization for the use of funds to complete roadway projects at the end of 2025.

Burt, Mayor ## Jeffrey J. Dahl, City Administrator(SEAL) ## 7A ## City of Woodbury, Minnesota ## Office of City Administrator ## Council Letter 26-84 April 22, 2026 ## To:The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council ## From:Jeffrey J. Dahl, City Administrator ## Subject:Consider Approval Amendment to Chapter 9 Franchises, Section 9-6 CenterPoint ## Energy Resources Corp.-Gas Franchise Fee, Schedule A ## Summary In July 2025 the City was contacted with a request from property owners at 3160 Manning Ave. to be exempted from our CenterPoint Energy franchise fee for their grain dryer operation. Due to changes implemented by CenterPoint Energy, their fees would increase from $90/year to approximately over $1,000/year. The grain dryer is only used in the month of October (sometimes in November) to dry field corn according to the property owners. Staff reviewed the details of the request, evaluated legal options, confirmed this is the only such operation in the City, and met with CenterPoint Energy. Consideration of the exemption before Council was delayed due to staff’s need to evaluate the overall financial condition of the Parks & Trails Replacement Fund and franchise fees. Essentially, if an ordinance change was to be considered staff wanted to review that no other changes to fees would be recommended. At the conclusion of such review, as part of our development of the 2027-2031 CIP, staff does not recommend any changes to franchise fees and is therefore recommending to Council consideration of this specific exemption. Property owners have been updated regarding the City’s process since their original request. Staff have worked with CenterPoint Energy on this process, and they have provided their concurrence on proposed changes. Similar exemptions have been provided by other cities due to this change. Due to notification requirements, an amended ordinance would not be effective until August 1, 2026. ## Recommendation Staff recommends Council adopt the ordinance amending Chapter 9 Franchises, Section 9-6 CenterPoint Energy Resources Corp.-Gas Franchise Fee, Schedule A. ## Fiscal Implications Providing this exemption will have a minimal impact on overall franchise fees collected. For 2025, the City collected $81,287 in fees through CenterPoint Energy and $2,409,645 through Xcel Energy. ## Council Letter 26-84 April 22, 2026 Page 2 ## Policy ## 2019-2021 City Council Strategic Initiative, Parks and Trails Replacement Plan ## City Code, Chapter 9, Franchises CenterPoint Energy, Interruptible Agricultural Grain Dryer Sales Service, Docket No. G- ## 008/GR-21-435 ## Public Process This is the first public process for this agenda item. The draft ordinance was posted on the City’s website and an InTouch notice was sent 10 days prior to the Council meeting, per standard procedures. ## Background CenterPoint Energy completed changes to their grain dryer tariff, notifying the City in July 2025. A tariff is just what they call their fee schedule for different classifications of customers. All grain dryers were moved to a new tariff that requires them to be on their system all year, even though they are only using natural gas about two months of the year. Previously they would only be active when they needed to be. However, this meant they’d have to call CenterPoint and they would have to send out a technician to physically unlock their meter for them to use gas. The new tariff allows them to be on their system for the entire year and is beneficial for both grain dryers and CenterPoint. Owners don’t have to worry about planning ahead and calling CenterPoint and they don’t have to send someone out to unlock their meter. Many of CenterPoint Commercial/Industrial customers take service under the CenterPoint Interruptible Large Volume Dual Fuel (LVDF) and Small Volume Dual Fuel (SVDF) tariffs: Large Volume Dual Fuel (LVDF) tariff - $1,250/mo. basic + $18/mo. telemetry charge (plus gas, delivery, etc.) Small Volume Dual Fuel (SVDF) tariff - $80/mo. basic charge + $18/mo. telemetry charge (plus gas, delivery, etc.) Grain dryers previously took service under SVDF and LVDF tariffs but only paid the (above) applicable monthly basic fee + telemetry charge for the months they consumed gas (typically two months), then they were physically locked. For the remaining 10 months they were not active/not consuming gas on the system they paid $0/mo. On February 1, 2023, CenterPoint offered a new agricultural grain dryer tariff and it was determined that all grain dryers must take service under this new tariff. Both CenterPoint and grain dryer customers benefited from the tariff requiring grain dryers be active on the system for all 12 months. Grain dryer customers now will take service under this Interruptible Agricultural Grain Dryer Sales ## Service Tariff: Small Volume – When consuming natural gas = $80/mo. basic chg. + $18/mo. telemetry chg. (typically 2 months) When they consume < 10 therms natural gas = $17/mo. basic chg. + $0 telemetry chg. (typically 10 months). ## Council Letter 26-84 April 22, 2026 Page 3 Large Volume – When consuming natural gas = $1250/mo. + $18/mo. telemetry (again typically 2 months) When they consume <10 therms natural gas $17/mo. basic chg. + $0 telemetry chg. (typically 10 months). Unfortunately, requiring grain dryer accounts to be active all 12 months had the unintended consequence of some grain dryer customers incurring City franchise fees for all 12 months. CenterPoint understood this issue and has been working with cities to exempt grain dryers, if desired. As the City received a direct request from the property owners of a grain dryer operation for an exemption, consideration is being provided to City Council. ## Written By:Angela Gorall, Deputy City Administrator ## Approved Through:Jeffrey J.

The scope of the project includes removal and replacement of existing pavement, spot curb replacement, full curb replacement in limited areas to address drainage issues, some trail and pedestrian safety improvements, and storm water improvements. This project is a public improvement and the necessary steps in the Section 429 process have been taken. The notice of special assessment hearing was published and sent to the individual homeowners. The hearing notice contained the notification that stated persons 65 years of age or older or retired by virtue of a permanent and total disability may apply to the City Council for deferment of the assessment. On December 9, 2025, City staff was approached by resident Dean Duffy of 2750 Woodlane Drive to receive improvements with the Woodlane Drive (Bailey Road to Wooddale Drive) Pavement Rehabilitation Project. The proposal involves constructing a water and sanitary service from Woodlane Drive to the adjacent property line. This improvement allows the resident to connect private services to the City’s water and sanitary sewer system due to a failing septic system and private well. Staff reviewed the request and found it possible to include in the project. A petition was signed and delivered to staff on March 25,2026. This property is to be added to the assessment roll for the Woodlane Drive (Bailey Road to Wooddale Drive) Pavement Rehabilitation Project. Staff recommends including the property at 2750 Woodlane Drive to the assessment roll. ## Written By:Kolten Espinosa, Engineering Project Coordinator ## Melinda Hampton, Accountant I ## Approved Through:Mike Hejna, Assistant City Engineer ## Attachment:Resolution Resolution 26-46 Resolution of the City of Woodbury, ## Washington County, Minnesota Approving the Special Assessments for the 2026 Pavement Rehabilitation Project – Woodlane Drive WHEREAS, the City desires to perform roadway rehabilitation for the 2026 Roadway ## Rehabilitation Project – Woodlane Drive; and WHEREAS, on June 25, 2025, the City held a public improvement hearing on the 2026 Road Rehabilitation Project – Woodlane Drive and ordered the project; and WHEREAS, the City has followed the necessary steps in the Section 429 process and desires to assess the cost of said improvements to all benefited properties.

Dahl, City Administrator(SEAL) ## 8A ## City of Woodbury, Minnesota ## Office of City Administrator ## Council Letter 26-86 April 22, 2026 ## To:The Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council ## From:Jeffrey J. Dahl, City Administrator Subject:Consider Approval of Woodlane Drive (Bailey Road to Wooddale Drive) Pavement ## Rehabilitation Project; Award Contract; Amend Budget; Consultant Selection for ## Construction Administration Services ## Summary In order to provide a safe and efficient transportation system, the City is proposing to convert Woodlane Drive between Newbury Road and Wooddale Drive from a four-lane roadway to a three- lane roadway with two-way center left turn lanes with a combination of roadway rehabilitation and restriping. These types of projects have been shown to reduce crashes, reduce vehicle speeds, and create a more accessible road for all users with no significant impact to vehicle capacity. In 2023, the City was awarded a Highway Safety improvement Program (HSIP) grant which will contribute approximately $1,000,000 to the project. The proposed project includes approximately 2.2 miles of collector roadway along the Woodlane Drive corridor as shown on the attached map. On June 25, 2025, Council held a Public Improvement Hearing for the current project scope, approved the preliminary report, ordered the project, authorized preparation of the plans and specifications, acquisition, and if necessary, condemnation of easements.
