PARK AND RECREATION COMMITTEE
Committee Chair Karen Schik presented a report from the Park and Recreation Committee
outlining their accomplishments for 2007 and goals for 2008-09. The Committee proposes to
continue to emphasize trails, open space planning, and expand the open gym program. The
Committee would like to explore the concept of a 501 c3 non-profit status to enable better access
to funding sources. Councilmember Yehle, seconded by Councilmember Crum, moved to
accept the Park and Recreation Committee's report on 2007 Accomplishments and 2008-
2009 Goals. The motion passed unanimously.
POLICE REPORT
Deputy Chris Majeski reported on police activity over the past month. The intersection of Lofton
Avenue (County Road 1) and Highway 97 has been the site of increased traffic accidents. Deputy
Majeski stated that Washington County has been researching various safety improvements at this
corner. Administrator Hurlburt was directed to contact Wayne Sandberg, Deputy Director of the
County Public Works Department, stating the City's concern about the visibility at this
intersection and to offer support for traffic improvements.
FIRE DEPARTMENT
Fire Chief Steve Spence presented the Fire Department's monthly report. There were 15
emergency response calls in February.
CITY ENGINEER
City Engineer Tom Peterson presented an update on the City's Engineering projects. Scandia is
included in the County's road striping for 2008, at a cost of$10,000 to $15,000.
Pavement Management Plan
Bonestroo, the city's engineering firm,has submitted a proposal for the preparation of a
pavement management plan. The Capital Improvements Committee recommended this in an
effort to help the City plan for future maintenance and reconstruction activities. Paul Hornby
presented the proposal for a plan which applies a rating based on surface evaluations and will
identify roadway maintenance and reconstruction needs. The cost proposal would not exceed
$9,800, and could be completed by the end of June 2008. Administrator Hurlburt stated that this
is a reasonable fee, lower than the budgeted amount of$20,000, as Bonestroo has already
accumulated a great deal of the roadway inventory as a result of their other work with the City.
Council was in consensus that this would be a useful tool for establishing maintenance and
reconstruction priorities, at a price lower than could be offered from other engineering firms.
Councilmember Yehle, seconded by Councilmember Peterson, moved to accept
Bonestroo's proposal for a Pavement Management Plan and authorized them to proceed,
at a cost not to exceed $9,800.00. The motion passed unanimously.
BUILDING/CODE ENFORCEMENT OFFICIAL
Council received a summary of the past month's activity.

CITY ADMINISTRATOR
Comments on Carnelian-Marine-St Croix Watershed District Rules
The Watershed began the process of updating their rules in April 2007. The Watershed Board
will hold a public hearing on April 7, 2008 to review these rules and regulations and have
requested that written comments be received by March 27th. Administrator Hurlburt participated
in the technical sessions and stated that the largest issue appears to be in establishing a threshold
of when a permit is needed. Council discussed Administrator Hurlburt's report on concerns with
the proposed rules. The rule in Section 4.0 expands buffers on all public waters and wetlands, at
a range which is significantly greater than what is now required in Scandia. Many other concerns
will be addressed in a letter to Jim Shaver,Administrator of the CMSCWD. These comments
include working toward a coordination of the Watershed's rules and the City's procedure in an
effort to streamline the time and expense for landowners regarding development rules and
building permits. Administrator Hurlburt and Mayor Seefeldt plan to attend the public hearing on
April 7t .
APPOINTMENT TO PARK AND REC COMMITTEE—RESOLUTION 03-18-08-02
The council held a special meeting prior to the start of the evening's regular meeting for the
purpose of interviewing candidates for the vacancy on the Park and Recreation Committee.
Committee Chair Karen Schik also participated in the interview process. Three candidates were
interviewed. Councilmember Yehle, seconded by Councilmember Crum, moved to adopt
Resolution 03-18-08-02 Appointing Tom Vogen to the Park and Recreation Committee.
The motion passed unanimously. Mr. Vogen's term will expire on February 1, 2010.
PROGRAM AGREEMENT WITH CAMP LAKAMAGA
Council reviewed the program agreement with the Girl Scouts of Minnesota and Wisconsin
River Valley for the city's summer recreation programs which will be held at the Girls Scouts'
Camp Lakamaga site. The agreement is identical to the one in place in 2007. City Attorney
Hebert has reviewed the agreement and found it to be in order. Councilmember Peterson,
seconded by Councilmember Crum, moved to approve the Program Agreement and
authorized Mayor Seefeldt to sign on behalf of the City. The motion passed unanimously.
LILLESKOGEN PARK PLAN
Jason Husveth, Critical Connections, and Ken Grieshaber, SRF Consulting, presented plans for
the restoration and development of Lilleskogen Park. A draft was presented to the Park
Committee in February. Refinements were made to the plan based on the committee's
recommendations. The plan proposes to reestablish the existing wetland,build a looped trail
system with boardwalk crossings, add interpretative signage,plant a native butterfly garden, and
make other ecological improvements. The plan is divided into three phases: 1) infrastructure,
grading; 2)restoration; 3) site furnishings, garden planting, lighting. This plan will now be used
as a tool for grants and other funding sources to begin the process of implementation, which is
expected to take several years. The Carnelian-Marine-St. Croix Watershed is supportive of the
plan and could assist with cost-sharing and support for grant sources. Council was in consensus
March 18, 2008

that this is an acceptable overall plan and was supportive of the Park Committee's exploration of
funding.
Councilmember Peterson, seconded by Councilmember Yehle, moved to adjourn.

to January 5, 2008. This project is also partly in Forest Lake, which has the final plat approval

the White Rock Ranch development to October 8, 2008. The motion passed unanimously.

Managers due to a vacancy. The appointment will be made by the county board. The City issued
a notice to citizens interested in serving on the Board to represent the Scandia/Big Marine Lake
area. Three applications were received. Councilmember Peterson recommended Michael White

years. Councilmember Peterson, seconded by Councilmember Crum, moved to submit the
nomination of Michael White to serve on the Carnelian-Marine-St. Croix Board of
Managers. The motion passed unanimously. All three applications will be forwarded to the

GRAVEL MINING CONDITIONAL USE PERMITS—CONTINUATION OF PUBLIC
HEARINGS
Public hearings were opened on March 5, 2008 to consider new Conditional Use Permits for
three mining operations: Bracht Bros., Inc., Dresel Contracting, Inc. and Tiller Corporation. City
Planner Sherri Buss reported on the current status of the applications. TKDA has subcontracted
with LBG, a firm that is analyzing the groundwater issues and will provide recommendations to
the City throughout the CUP process. LBG has requested additional information from the
applicants to complete their final hydro-geologic analysis. Comments received from John
Lindell, 11240 218th Street, will also be addressed by LBG in its analysis of the applications.
Planner Buss also reported on the progress of key issues identified at the March 5th meeting. The
Watershed Districts' review of surface water issues are in process. Washington Conservation
District and Car-Mar-St. Croix Watershed are working with the City to address the wetland study
on the Dresel site. TKDA's traffic engineer is reviewing traffic and roadway issues to determine
the needs and options for signage and other safety improvements. The applicants have been
directed to provide concept-level reclamation plans to show that future allowable uses will be
feasible. Staff will conduct field visits in April to establish a photo log of existing conditions at
the three sites. The photos will provide a record for comparison in future years. The Planners are
recommending a continuation of the public hearings to the May Planning Commission meeting,
at which time it is proposed that a full review will be complete and recommendations on the
permits can be made.
Commissioner Schwartz asked for clarification of what the reclamation plan must define.
Planner Buss stated that the Ordinance requires that reclamation be feasible for its allowed use in
that district,ultimately approved by the Planning Commission and Council. Commissioner
Maefsky asked if the photo compilation will be used to reference reclamation. Planner Buss
explained that a GPS unit will be used to identify the photo locations. This photo log will be used
in the Annual Operators Review to evaluate whether screening,berming and other conditions are
being met. Commissioner Rodsjo asked if John Lindell's comments and questions will be
addressed. Planner Buss stated that these questions have been directed to LBG and TKDA will
research the remaining concerns.
Chairman Ness asked for public comments.
• John Lindell, 11240 218th Street, would like Tiller Corporation to establish a 20-foot high
berm along the south border of the Tiller property so that it continues easterly along the
full length of the Stevens property. Mr. Lindell feels that this is a safety condition that
should be met in the final CUP approval. Mr. Lindell also feels that it is important to
revisit the environmental impacts of Tiller's mining operation through a complete EAW.

• Tim Brown, 23110 Manning Trail, asked what financial guarantees the city holds if the
operator were to abandon the property prior to reclamation, and what guarantees will be
in place regarding water protection for surrounding residents.Administrator Hurlburt:
The amount of the financial guarantee will be determined in the CUP process. LBG is
studying all groundwater issues and will have a report available at the next meeting.
• Jerry Vecchiollo, 10421 230th Street, asked how long the proposed"mining into the water
table"will last. Mike Caron, Tiller Corp.: This process would continue into the last year
of the project, estimated to be 20 to 30 years.
Chairman Ness continued the public hearings to May 6, 2008.
Possible dates the Planning Commission and Council to conduct site visits of all three operations
were discussed. It was decided to meet at the Bracht pit on April 22, 2008 at 5:00 p.m. to begin
the tours, travel to Dresel for a 5:45 tour, and arrive at the Tiller pit at 6:15 p.m. This will be
posted as a public meeting, open to anyone who wishes to attend. Liability issues were brought
up. City Attorney Hebert does not anticipate it would be a problem as long as safety controls are
put in place at the sites.
OLD MARINE ESTATES —FINAL PLAT, RESOLUTION 04-01-08-01
The preliminary plat for a minor subdivision/preliminary plat to create three lots at 11980
Lakamaga Trail known as Old Marine Estates was approved on November 6, 2007. Applicants
John and Sandra Swanson have submitted the final plat.
City Planner Sherri Buss presented the staff report. The final plat and associated plans are in
substantial agreement with the approved preliminary plat. The planners recommend approval
with conditions which were outlined in draft Resolution 04-01-08-01. Regarding the Woodland
Preservation Plan,the applicant may remove the trees for the driveway and must complete the
deferred maintenance on the remainder of the pine plantation. By removing the dead and
diseased trees, the value of the existing plantings will be protected, in keeping with the intent of
the ordinance. Drainage easements to the City will include the raingardens and access to the
raingardens, in the event that the City needs to provide any maintenance to the raingardens.
The Carnelian-Marine-St. Croix Watershed has placed additional conditions concerning buffer
requirements and management standards which will not stand in the way of the City's approval.
Modifications in wording of Conditions#2 and#3 of the draft resolution were made to better
clarify the intent.
The Planning Commission recommended approval of the draft resolution with the revisions to
wording.

siren could be moved to the Southwest corner of the fire station property by the end of
May if capital funding is approved. The siren would be mounted atop a 50' pole with
direct AC power. Moving the siren should result in increase coverage.

14727 209th St. North
Scandia, MN 55073 (651) 433-2274
Action Requested: Receive a report from Bonestroo, the city's engineering firm,
concerning Pilar Road.
Deadline/ Timeline: N/A
Background: • At the January 15 meeting, the Council briefly discussed Pilar
Road and asked the City Engineer to prepare a brief, preliminary
review of the issues that would affect a future paving project.
• Pilar would be included in the next paving project, currently
shown in the City's Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for 2010.
There is a concern that this road may be more complicated and
expensive than other recent road projects, and that more lead time
may be needed to address these factors, including the need for
road easements.
• The engineer's report is attached. They are recommending that the
city consider doing some preliminary work with the affected
residents on Pilar now. A survey (and potentially a follow-up
meeting) would help identify their specific issues and concerns,
help set parameters for future design work, and help us better
estimate the potential costs for the city's CIP.
• The 2008 budget does not include funds for design or any other
work related to a paving project. However, the relatively modest
cost of a survey and the follow-up work could probably be
absorbed in the current operating budget for engineering services.
Recommendation: I recommend that the Council receive the report, and give direction on
the next steps.

Re: Road improvement resident survey File No: 568-08000 www.bonestroo.corn
Remarks:
Pilar Road is one of the last remaining major street improvement projects to complete in the
City,extending from Olinda Trail (CSAH 3)to St. Croix Trail (State Hwy 95). The street is
approximately 8300 feet in length (1.5 miles)with a local traffic volume. The roadway
generally consists of straight segments, several curves, variable width (18'to 22'), and extends
through heavily wooded terrain. The roadway has several residential access points and three
intersecting streets, Paris Avenue(2800 feet), Pennfield Avenue (450 feet),and Perkins Avenue
(1200 feet)that should also be include in the street improvement project. The combined length
of these roadways and Pilar Road is 12,750 feet(2.4 miles). These streets have approximately
36 homes with direct driveway access.
Improvements to Pilar Road appear to be more complex that previous street improvement
projects. It is anticipated that the roadway surface will require widening in some locations to
provide a 22 foot driving surface. Drainage can be designed with ditches in most areas, but it
may also need curb(more than in previous projects)to reduce impacts to trees and reduce
easement costs.
It appears that there are only a few properties with platted rights of way, where most indicate
"subject to road" in the tax descriptions. The brief tax description along with a review of
parcel data appears to indicate that most properties extend to the center of the street.
Acquisition of easements could be a costly portion of the project.
Issues to consider for Pilar Road improvements include:
1. Assessment Policy—Project may not be feasible from a financial standpoint. The City will
need to assess at least 20%of the bond amount for the project. We prepared a very
preliminary estimate of potential construction cost for the improvements for Pilar Road, Paris
Avenue, Pennfield Avenue and Perkins Avenue estimated to be$820,000(does not include
easement acquisition). The assessable amount by policy(75%of bituminous cost) is estimated
to be$164,000 for the 36 parcels resulting in an estimated assessment of$4,570 per unit.
There are additional streets that remain to be improved to bituminous surfacing that can be
added to the project to balance assessment costs. The remaining streets are Oakgreen Avenue,
185th Street, and Old Marine Trail. Old Marine Trail is a collector street and the others local
streets. The estimated cost for these roadways is estimated to be$850,000 with an assessable
(estimating potential for 64 units)amount of$175,000. A combined cost is estimated to be
$1,670,000, with an assessable amount of$339,000, resulting in a cost of$3,390 per unit.
For bonding purposes, it is estimated the minimum assessment amount is$334,000, resulting
in $3,340 per unit. The project completed in 2007 resulted in assessments of$3588 per unit
for comparison purposes. These construction costs should be considered very preliminary with
the limited project site information available at this time. A more detailed engineering and
financial analysis should be performed when the City considers this capital improvement
project.
2. Easement acquisition - The majority of the parcels along the street appear to have property
lines that extend to the center of the street. Negotiation for roadway and drainage easements
with several property owners is likely.
3. Construction requirements—Construction of the driving surface width and ditches for
drainage will impact many trees along the corridor. Additionally, permitting may be required by
the local Watershed District and some ponding or infiltration basins may be required, with
widening the street to a consistent width.
4. Existing terrain—The slopes in the adjacent right of way will require fill in some areas and
cuts in others. Curb and gutter can reduce tree impacts and easement needs, but will increase
project costs. The City should expect this project construction cost to be more than previous
project costs due to grading(to improve vertical sight distance), removal of trees, curb and
gutter, and drainage improvements.
If the City would like to consider improving this roadway in the next few years, communication
with the residents should be initiated soon. A simple survey of residents by mail would be cost
effective way to inquire if residents would favor roadway improvements. Survey questions can
be tailored with City staff assistance,with some example questions as follows:
1. Are residents willing to work with the City regarding easement needs?
2. Do residents have traffic concerns if the street is improved?
3.Are residents in favor of improving the street from Aggregate to bituminous surface?
4. Are residents in favor of widening the street from it's present variable 18-22 feet to a
consistent width (22 feet)?
5. Are residents generally in favor of being assessed for curb and culverts to reduce tree
impacts and easement needs?
6.With the unique character of the street, are residents willing to accept assessments for more
than 75%of the bituminous costs?
The survey could be accomplished though the US Mail, with a survey form and cover letter on
City letterhead and include a postage paid return envelope to City Hall.
If there appears to be interest in street improvements, a more formal means of discussion could
be held through neighborhood meetings or public information meetings with City
representatives and area residents. We estimate that the project will take at least two years to
complete from initial resident contact to completion of construction.
Please do not hesitate to contact me at 651-967-4625, if you have any questions regarding this
potential improvement project.

Scandia, MN 55073 (651)433-2274
Action Requested: Receive a status report on the Carnelian-Marine-St. Croix Watershed District
(CMSCWD) rules and the response to the city's comments.
Deadline/ Timeline:
Background: • At the March 18 meeting, the Council approved a letter commenting on
the proposed rules, to be submitted to the CMSCWD Board for their
public hearing held on April 7, 2008.
• Mayor Seefeldt, Attorney Hebert and Administrator Hurlburt attended
the hearing. Consultants to the CMSCWD presented a 13-page
document listing the comments received from Scandia, May Township,
Stillwater Township, Washington County,the Metro Council and
MnDOT. The Board had a revised set of rules before them, which
incorporated some but not all of the changes that had been
recommended. These were not provided to the public in advance of the
meeting.
• A copy of the letter sent by Scandia is attached. It is marked to indicate
where the draft rules were changed to address the comment, and where
they were not. Some changes were made in response to the detailed
comments. No responses were given to the general comments at the
beginning of the letter. In a response given to another agency, they did
acknowledge that it would be desirable to develop a"memorandum of
understanding" to better define how they will work with other permitting
authorities. The remaining major concerns, in summary, are:
➢ The need for additional definitions and explanations of technical
terms;
➢ Whether limiting stormwater flow to pre-settlement conditions is a
reasonable and necessary policy;
➢ The need for a significant expansion of regulatory requirements
(such as wetland buffers, mitigation requirements and elimination of
de minimis exemptions) and the impact on property owners' use of
their land;
➢ The low (5%of site area) threshold for applicability of the
stormwater rule;
➢ The need for duplicative permits for subdivisions and the homes to be
Page 1 of 2

built on the lots in the subdivision;
> The low threshold for erosion control permits (50 c.y. or 5,000 sq.ft.)
> The significant expansion of wetland buffer requirements; and
> A 30 ft maximum access zone to wetlands and water bodies,
compared to the 50 ft zone allowed by the city.
• The CMSCWD Board decided to take additional time to meet with the
commenting agencies before proceeding with the rules. A meeting is set
for Monday, April 21 at 8:00 a.m.
Recommendation: I recommend that the Council receive this update and give any additional
direction or comments for the upcoming meeting.

Carnelian-Marine-St. Croix Watershed District '"X — Irkd trS.s-oOla /
21150 Ozark Ave. N., PO Box 188 tel O Gila h
Scandia, Minnesota 55073 9
Dear Mr. Shaver:
Thank you for the opportunity to comment on the proposed Carnelian-Marine-St. Croix
Watershed District (CMSCWD) rules. Please share these written comments from the City of
Scandia with the Board at the April 7, 2008 public hearing.
In addition to the comments on specific sections of the rules, Scandia has some general
comments.
/
✓ • First, a general comment regarding administration and enforcement of the rules. The city is
usually the first point of contact for property owners planning any type of construction
project. We have overlapping regulations and responsibilities for many of the same activities
covered by the rules. Coordinating the watershed's procedures with the city's process for
development reviews and building permits will be a challenge. There will be opportunities to
work together to reduce the time and expense for landowners and for the public. At some
point, it may be desirable to develop a "memorandum of understanding" to better define how
we will work together.
' • The rules contain a lot of highly technical terms and jargon that will be difficult for the
average citizen and probably even many people in the development industry to understand.
Where possible, additional definitions and explanations should be added (for example,
"MnRAM.")
X. • The rules are based on a policy to work toward restoration of natural hydrology by limiting
peak off-site stormwater flow to pre-settlement rates. The District should consider whether
or not this is a reasonable policy, given that it is difficult to determine what pre-settlement
conditions were, and whether or not they were truly superior to pre-development conditions.
✓\ • Many of the rules (such as wetland buffers, mitigation requirements and elimination of de
minimus exemptions) expand regulations beyond what is now required by local ordinances or
state law. The board should consider the impact these additional restrictions will have on
property owners and their expectations of how they will be able to use their land.
March 20,2008
Page 2 of 3
Listed below are Scandia's specific comments on the rules:
Page,
Lines: Comment:
/ 5, 42- Sec. 0.0, Definitions. The definition of"subdivision" is overly broad and would appear to
43 apply to land divisions that do not fall under municipal subdivision authority(see Mn. Stat.
Sec. 462.385 Subd. 4.b.) Later in the rules, the term "major subdivision" is also used (page
35, Sec. 9.2.2) but it is not defined. The terms major subdivision"and "minor subdivision"
/ mean different things to different municipalities so should be defined clearly if they are used.
✓ 9, 28 Sec. 1.10. The phrase "If the permit is acted upon"should be changed to "If work is commenced." g
10, 20- Section 2.2, Applicability of Stormwater Rules. These thresholds are low. For example, 5%
39 of site area for a 10,000 sq. ft. lot is only 500 feet. Many very small projects would require a
permit under this rule, necessitating a large investment in engineering to show that the
standards are met. This would be burdensome on the land owner and may be excessive. We
recommend that this language be changed to one acre or 5% of a site area. whichever is more.
The threshold of 5,000 sq. ft. of land disturbance is also small, ensuring that almost any new
home within a shoreland overlay district will require a stormwater permit. This is much less
onerous than the rule as originally proposed (250 sq. ft.) but it will still be a significant burden
on the landowner. One acre of impervious surface is a common threshold in other watersheds
and should be considered.
/✓ It appears that certain projects may be required to comply with this rule and obtain a watershed
permit more than once; when the subdivision is reviewed, and when each home is built. The
district should consider issuing its permit for the subdivision and not requiring an individual
permit for each home, provided that it complies with permit issued for the subdivision.
✓ 11, 47- Section 2.4.4, Redevelopment. This language modifies the applicability language in Section
51 2.2, and should be moved to that section in order to provide a clear description of when the
rule applies.
16, 18- Section 2.7.6, Residential Subdivision (exceptions to stormwater rule.) This language appears
22 to exempt certain subdivisions from several of the management standards in Sec. 2.4. It needs
to be read with the applicability language in Sec. 2.2 to be understood. The intent is to exempt
certain small subdivisions from some of the management standards. However, if a subdivision
meets any of the other criteria(such as land disturbance over one acre, or over 5,000 sq. feet in
a shoreland area)the standards would still apply. The exceptions seem to conflict with the
other criteria. For example: Sec. 2.7.6 says that some standards do not apply to certain
residential subdivisions with less than 10% impervious. However, Sec. 2.2 (b)effectively
takes away that exception if there is 5%or more impervious. The exception language also
contains an unnecessary reference to Sec. 7.0, which may be confusing to the reader. We
recommend that section 2.2 (a), "Residential subdivision" be removed, and the exception
language in 2.7.6 also be deleted. The other five criteria would determine which subdivisions
fall under the stormwater management rule. This would eliminate confusion and conflicts in
the rules.
18, 1-4 Section 3.1 sets the thresholds for erosion control permits at
excavating or disturbance of 5,000 sq. ft. or more of land area. This is and improvement from
March 20,2008
Page 3 of 3
Page,
Lines: Comment:
the initial draft of the rules, which would have required a permit for 250 sq. ft. of land
disturbance. This threshold is still fairly low, and could be made less onerous for property
owners if an erosion control plan could be approved at the subdivision level, rather than for
each individual home.
20, 24- Section 4.0, Applicability of Lake, River Stream and Wetland Buffer Requirements. The
34 buffer widths are greater, and the applicability of the buffer requirement is significantly
and greater, than what is now required in Scandia. Currently, buffers are required only on Natural
21, 3-8 Environment(NE) lakes (50 feet)and Types 3, 4 and 5 wetlands (50 feet) in the Shoreland
Overlay District. The proposed rule requires 75-foot buffers on NE lakes, and 50-foot buffers
on Recreational Development lakes. Buffers ranging from 30 to 100 feet are required on all
wetlands, whether or not they are in the Shoreland Overlay District. While the buffer widths
may be reasonable based on the need to protect the water resources, the new rule could be seen
as significant expansion of the requirements and restrictions on landowners. The City would
prefer that the wetland buffer requirements to revised to be similar to what is now in place in
local regulations.
22,1-9 Section 4.4.2, buffer monuments. The rules provide for two options; flush to the ground or
post markers. Post markers have some benefits for education and enforcement. It is easier to
determine if a monument has been removed or if mowing or other disturbance has occurred
around it. The design of markers should be coordinated with the city so that there is
consistency in the community.
24, 19- Section 4.9.2, access zones to wetlands or water bodies. The access zone permitted is smaller
20 than currently allowed by Scandia's shoreland regulations (30 versus 50 feet.) The City would
prefer that the access zone be revised to 50 feet to be consistent with what has been allowed by
current regulations.
37, 7- Sureties. The district will require sureties in the form of a letter of credit, cash or performance
23 bond. They may wish to consider eliminating the performance bond as an option. Most cities
have ceased accepting performance bonds due to the difficulty of making a claim.

Dear City Council Members, CITY OF SCANDIA
The Willowbrook Church Council and Advisory Committee have finished deliberating since the new
resolution passed in February.
We have recently completed four important and valuable meetings since our time with you.
1. We met with Chris Doehrmann (architect) to determine the cost of his time to restructure the new 50
foot setback from the original design.
2. We met with our Civil Engineer to determine what changes need to be made with the 50 foot
setback— along with their costs to make these changes.
3. We met with Professional Landscape and Lighting Architects to determine time and cost.
4. We met with Local banks to determine funding for this project and land purchase.
As you may know, we are in the middle of a financial campaign for the construction of our new church. Due
to the escalating cost in the process of receiving the CUP, the bank(s) have informed us that we need a
certain percentage of money down to secure the sale of the land. Currently, we do have enough to make
this down payment for the purchase of the land, but were cautioned that if we were to continue to move
forward on the CUP it could potentially cost our church 30 — 40,000 dollars — thus cutting into the
percentage of down payment needed for the land purchase.
Our Council suggested that Pastor Brad call Anne Hurlburt to request a six month extension on our review
process for the CUP and to pursue the purchase of the land within the next few months. Our Church
Council felt that the new resolution in February gave us the much needed direction to complete the CUP
and to advance forward on the construction of our building in the near future. that of the
We felt purchase ie
land is a valuable step for our church at this time (momentum builder) and that within the next six months
we will be able complete the CUP that has been presented.
In the next few weeks we will be pursuing bids from local contractors as to the cost (sq. foot) of the building
that Chris Doehrmann has designed. In doing so, it will give our church helpful financial feedback for our
campaign and future loans.
Please take a moment to review our request and give us your feedback.
Thanks again for your time in this matter!
Cordially,
Carry. Monn

advertise for these positions.
• Depending upon qualifications of the applicant, the pay rates
would be $7.50 to $8.00 per hour(recreation program leaders) or
$12.00 hour(recreation program teacher.) We need one or two
instructors for each program, depending upon enrollment.
• Kristen Stenborg served as a recreation program leader in 2007,
assisting with the programs at Camp Lakamaga. She is available

Recommendation: I recommend that the Council authorize staff to proceed with staffing
the parks program as requested.

supportive, harmony is restored and youth have the skills and opportunities for citizenship. Parent involvement
is essential to all services provided by the YSB.

Youth Service Bureau Programs & Services
PREVENTION SERVICES
• T;;: • GOAL: Help youth develop internal assets for a healthy identity.
LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT:
Youth Advisory Board: Two Youth Advisory Boards have been formed; one in the Forest Lake School District
and another in the North Branch School District. These groups of youth volunteers, who are in grades 7-12,
serves as youth advocates to the Board of Directors of the Youth Service Bureau. They assist the Youth Service
Bureau to better understand the needs of young people in a changing and growing community, helping staff to
identify programming gaps and opportunities. Both groups also complete community service projects
throughout the year. These experiences are planned and facilitated by the group, and the projects themselves are
voted on as a team. This allows youth to take on topics or issues of interest or concern in the community and
make a positive difference.
Volunteer Opportunities: Sophomore,junior and senior high students volunteer for the Youth Service Bureau as
program aides working with younger children, and participate in community activities and local festivals in the
area on behalf of YSB.
Youth As Resources (YAR): This initiative supports the skills, ideas, and energy of youth to engage in asset-
building activities. YAR provides small grants to youth-lead projects making a difference in their community
within the North Branch school district. YAR is provided in collaboration with North Branch Area Schools
Community Education and the Initiative Foundation.
SUMMER PROGRAMMING:
Programs are held in local communities to help youth learn, engage in positive social interactions with peers and
caring adults, and have fun at the same time. Some fees are charged. Activities vary each summer based on
community needs. Some of the activities include:
Forest Lake Safety Camp: For kids in grades 1-6, this camp is two days packed full of fun activities teaching
bike, water, electrical, and fire safety. Junior and senior high students volunteer for the Youth Service Bureau as
program aides working with younger children at day camps and activities, and participate in community
activities on behalf of YSB. Youth receive 6 hours of training. Volunteer service records are kept. Youth are
able to add this training and experience to their job/college resume's and receive letters of recommendation
from their supervisors as appropriate Forest Lake Police Department, Forest Lake Lions Club, a variety of local
businesses and the YSB sponsor this camp.
Senior/Youth Job Connection:
The Senior/Youth Job Connection program is a referral service, providing seniors with affordable help for
almost any of their household chores. The Job Connection links youth ages 12-15 with adults aged 55 and older
in the Forest Lake area that need extra help and are willing to work with youth. Seniors negotiate wages with
the youth worker. Youth workers are available year round.
Outdoor Adventure Boys Camp- For boys entering 4th-6th grades, this is a self-esteem building day camp where
boys participate in activities such as: archery, canoeing, mountain biking, orienteering, building survival
shelters, fishing, team challenges, and starting campfires with flint and steel that we cook our lunch over on the
last day. Junior counselors are trained to assist with this camp.
This is a camp for any boys interested in learning about the outdoors. Boys of any skill and knowledge level are
encouraged to attend. This Youth Service Bureau camp is set up to encourage teamwork and build self-esteem.
Participants are put into 4 or 5 person teams with a high school age junior counselor to help oversee and guide
the group throughout the four days. The camp is set in a beautiful spot on Big Marine Lake and has neat
opportunities to get into the woods and experience nature.
OUT OF SCHOOL TIME RECREATIONAL PROGRAMMING
GOAL: To partner with area businesses and organizations to develop and offer safe, supervised and
enriching activities for youth grades 6 and up during non-school hours; minimizing involvement in
juvenile delinquent behavior through positive social experiences and connections with caring adults.
Coffee Talk: Through the Girls Program Planning Initiative, the Coffee Talk program was developed in direct
response the girls desire to feel more connected to adult women with whom they could talk to about anything,
without fear of being judged. Coffee Talk meets every other week for an hour at local coffee houses in Forest
Lake, Wyoming, North Branch, Stacy and Chisago City. Coffee Talk is open to all High School girls, and
conversations are youth led with topics ranging from boys, childhood, college, parents, friends, and so much
more. Coffee Talk is free program, with the exception of beverages and snacks that the girls choose to purchase.
All Coffee Talk participants get a free Coffee Talk travel mug. This project is offered at 5 locations throughout
the service area.
Youth and Adult Pool Tourneys: YSB partners with area businesses such as Stars and Strikes to bring pool
tourneys to Forest Lake area youth and their adult partners. These tourneys are offered multiple times
throughout the year and have grown in popularity. All youth participants receive ribbons or trophies. This is a
smoke and alcohol free event, and a DJ spins music to keep the atmosphere lively.
Teen Game Time at the YSB: Every Sunday throughout the school year(excluding holidays), YSB opens its
doors to youth in grades 7-9 from 2-5pm. This program allows youth the opportunity to interact with other
teens through fun activities like X-Box, board games, cards, and much more. This is a free program for youth.
In the summer, the day switches to Wednesday evenings 6-9 pm.
Teen Lock-Ins. The teen lock-ins are designed for youth grades 7-9. Youth start the evening out at a movie
theater at 9:30 pm where they enjoy viewing a featured movie while snacking on pop and popcorn. After the
movie, the youth are transported by bus to the Junior High School for open gym, dancing, and pizza. Following
this activity, the youth are again transported to a bowling alley where they are able to enjoy cosmic bowling.
Parents pick up the youth the next morning at 6:00 am. This program is provided in partnership with Forest
Lake Area Schools Community Education.

COMMUNITY JUSTICE SERVICES
-sy;,s GOAL: Hold youth offenders accountable with input from victims.
The YSB's Community Justice Program works to meet the needs of all those involved
when a criminal offense occurs: offender, victim, and the community. The offender is
expected to take responsibility for his/her actions, to understand the effect of the offense on the victim, to make
amends for the offense, and be accepted back into the community. This program works in conjunction with
schools, law enforcement, liaison officers, and counties. Young people referred to the Community Justice
Program complete a contract with the Youth Service Bureau. Parents are required to be involved. Offenders are
asked to participate in weekly peer groups, attend educational seminars, complete community service hours, and
appear before a panel of community volunteers. The goal of the panel is to help the offender realize the impact
his or her offense has had on the community. The victim is also involved throughout the process. A core group
of fifty trained volunteers provide a minimum of three hours of services each month to the Community Justice
Program. Educational classes and programs include: Choice & Consequence, Chemical Awareness, and
Tobacco Awareness.
Diversion Program/Community Work Service
The Youth Service Bureau arranges placement of youth needing to complete community work service hours.
The YSB offers a service-learning approach to community service. Placements are made throughout the
community and some work crew opportunities are available. Emphasis is also placed on youth and families
working together to complete community work service.
Offenders Aae 12 and Under
Participants complete a program that includes discussion on making choices, how their actions affected
themselves and others, and learning skills to prevent further offenses.
Suspension Program:
YSB offers a safe, supervised setting for elementary and junior high school students who have been suspended
from school.
Teen Intervene:
Teen Intervene is an in depth chemical program for repeat chemical offenses or for youth who are identified as
at risk for chemical abuse. The program includes five sessions with a counselor and involves goal setting for
reducing and/or quitting chemical use. Parents are involved.
Making Connections Mentoring Program:
The overriding goal of Making Connections is to improve school performance/attendance and reduce the
recidivism of at-risk youth by providing an opportunity for a positive, supportive relationship with a caring
adult. Each youth participant has a case plan developed collaboratively by the youth, YSB staff, and the youth's
family, which includes specific objectives related to his/her needs. These may include improving school
performance, life skills, social skills, decreasing delinquent behavior, increasing self-esteem, attitude, conflict-
resolution skills, and improved relationship with family and peers. The mentor/mentee activities are directed to
these objectives.
