Executive summary
Title: Resolution appointing councilmembers to the office of mayor pro tem for 2021
Recommended action: Motion to adopt Resolution appointing councilmembers to the office of
mayor pro tem for the 2021 calendar year.
Policy consideration: Is this action consistent with city council practices and procedures?
Summary: Minnesota State Statute section 412.121 states that at the first meeting held each
year the council shall appoint the councilmembers who will serve as mayor pro tem to perform
the duties of the mayor during disability or absence, or, in the case of a vacancy in the office of
mayor, until a successor has been appointed or elected.
In 2014 the council approved amendments to “Council Rules and Procedures” relating to the
appointment of the mayor pro tem. Resolution No. 14-034 states, “councilmembers appointed
as mayor pro tem will serve a four-month term beginning in January of each year, with the
appointments made on a rotating basis based upon seniority. For councilmembers elected at
the same time, seniority is based on alphabetical order of last name. All councilmembers willing
to serve as mayor pro tem shall be appointed to a term before the rotation starts again with the
most senior member. In the absence of the mayor and mayor pro tem, the most senior
available councilmember will serve as “acting mayor pro tem”.
Proposed mayor pro tem rotation for 2021

Resolution appointing councilmembers to

Whereas, Minnesota State Statute Section 412.121 requires cities to choose each year
an acting mayor from the councilmembers; and
Whereas, St. Louis Park Home Rule Charter Section 2.06 states the acting mayor (mayor
pro tem) shall perform the duties of mayor in case of the mayor’s disability, absence from the
city, or in case of vacancy in the office of mayor until a successor is appointed and qualified; and
Whereas, councilmembers appointed as mayor pro tem serve a four-month term
beginning in January of each year, with the appointments made on a rotating basis based upon
seniority, or for councilmembers elected at the same time, seniority is based on alphabetical
order of last name; and
Whereas, in the absence of the mayor and mayor pro tem, the most senior available
councilmember will serve as acting mayor pro tem, and in the event that a councilmember is
unable to or chooses not to complete his or her term as mayor pro tem, the next council
member in the rotation will complete the term and continue to serve his or her term as

Whereas, the council has carefully reviewed the qualifications of all councilmembers

Executive summary
Title: Joint powers agreement for distracted driving vehicle program
Recommended action: Motion to approve the joint powers agreement for the distracted
driving vehicle program between the City of Richfield and the City of St. Louis Park.
Policy consideration: Should the St. Louis Park PD be involved in proactively enforcing
distracted driving and seatbelt violations?
Summary: Toward Zero Deaths (TZD), is a federally funded grant that has a mission to create a
culture for which traffic fatalities and serious injuries are no longer acceptable through the
integrated application of education, engineering, enforcement, and emergency medical and
trauma services. The St. Louis Park Police Department joined the TZD program in 2019, working
cooperatively with agencies from Richfield, Bloomington, Eden Prairie, Edina, Hopkins and
Metropolitan Airport Police, as assigned by Minnesota Office of Traffic Safety who oversees the
grant. As part of the enforcement tenant of TZD, the cities focus on increased enforcement of
impaired, seat belt, speed, move-over, and distracted driving violations and related education.
According to the Minnesota Office of Traffic Safety, between 2015 and 2019, there were more
than 50,000 crashes th at were distracted driving related. In 2019 distracted driving contributed
to 3279 injuries and 32 deaths in Minnesota. Due to the impact of distracted driving, the City of
Richfield applied and received a federal grant to purchase a specialized vehicle to assist in the
enforcement efforts of distracted driving and seat belt violations. The vehicle is an unmarked
pickup truck that has a high profile and tinted windows to assist in observing violations of the
distracted driving laws. While the vehicle has emergency lights and siren, this vehicle would
primarily be used to observe violations and traffic stops would be done with a fully marked
squad car. As part of the grant, the cooperating agencies would be allowed access to utilize the
vehicle for enforcement and education activities in their respective communities. The joint
powers agreement has been reviewed and approved by St. Louis Park Civil Attorney, Soren
Mattick.
Financial or budget considerations: As part of the agreement, each city is responsible for any
damages caused to the vehicle while under their control as well as fuel consumed during use.
In accordance with the agreement, the vehicle will be added to the city’s existing automobile
insurance coverage.
Strategic priority consideration: Not applicable.

Title: Final payment resolution – 2019 Pavement Management Project (Area 7) – Project No. 4019-1000
Discussion
Background: Annually, the city rehabilitates several miles of local residential streets as part of
the pavement management program. This project included street rehabilitation work, which
consisted of removing and replacing the existing bituminous pavement and replacing portions
of concrete curb and gutter where needed. Other work included sidewalk repairs, sewer repairs
and select watermain replacement within the neighborhood. In addition to the street
rehabilitation activities, staff integrated the construction of new sidewalk segments into the
project for cost savings, reduction in customer inconvenience, and contractor coordination.
On April 1, 2019, the city council awarded a contract in the amount of $6,250,317.48 to GMH
Asphalt Corporation for the 2019 Pavement Management Project. The final contract amount
($6,134,601.28) was 1.85% less than the contract amount.
There were change orders approved on the project, but the increased cost of the change orders
was offset by quantity underruns and cost saving modifications during construction.
During construction, some unexpected items came up that added to the cost of the project. The
additional work that was completed increased the cost of the contract by $265,500.27. The project
included quantity underruns and field modifications resulting in a cost savings of $381,216.47. This
resulted in the final project costs being $115,716.20 less than the awarded contract amount.
The contract changes are attributed to dewatering due to high groundwater levels, change in
bituminous pavement design due to cold temperatures during paving, additional unforeseen
sanitary sewer manhole repairs and landscape modification due to resident requests. The
additional work was necessary to ensure there is quality street, sidewalk and utility
infrastructure for years to come and to address resident requests.
The cost savings on this project can be attributed to various site conditions and field
modifications during construction. Most of the existing subgrade material experienced during
construction was found to be adequate and suitable material for road base. This meant there
were limited subgrade corrections necessary to be addressed by the contractor, which
contributed to major cost savings. Cost savings can also be contributed to field modifications of
spot curb repair rather than total curb removal to fix drainage issues. This modification saved
money by reducing the amount of curb that was re placed while still fixing the drainage issues.
Financial or budget considerations: The final cost of the work performed by the contractor
under Contract No. 74-19 has been calculated as follows:

Title: Final payment resolution – SCADA System Replacement – Project No. 5318-5006
Discussion
Background: Reliable utility systems within a community, whether it's drinking water, sanitary
sewer, or stormwater, are critical to meeting the basic needs of its citizens. Operating and
maintaining each of these complex utility systems relies heavily upon the effective performance
of the Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system. A SCADA system continuously
monitors these various systems and alerts staff when issues arise before they become a major
problem.
St. Louis Park had identified the need to upgrade its SCADA system. In general, the SCADA
System Replacement project work consisted of the removal of existing programmable logic
controllers (PLCs), operator interface terminals (OITs), radios, and the supply and installation of
new PLCs, OITs, Ethernet switches, and other appurtenances for existing control panels located
at three (3) well houses, seven (7) water treatment plants, one (1) elevated water tank, four (4)
stormwater lift stations, and sixteen (16) sanitary lift stations. Complete control panel
replacement for one (1) existing stormwater lift station and seven (7) existing sanitary sewer lift
stations was performed. In addition, this project replaced the existing radio communication
system with a combination of cellular and fiber communications connections. This also included
providing new supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA) servers and software and
implementing several system monitoring redundancies.
On May 20, 2019, the city council awarded a contract in the amount of $1,265,955.00 to
Telemetry and Process Controls, Inc. for the SCADA System Replacement project.
The final contract amount for this project is $1,322,086.42, which is $56,131.42 (4.4%) more
than the contract amount awarded. The contract increase is attributed to various constraints
and field modifications necessary to provide a quality project. During construction, unexpected
items came up that added to the cost of the project. The project also included some deductions,
which can be attributed to field modifications and unused project allowance by the contractor.
A description of the additional work and deductions is below:
•Change Order #1 ($48,617 increase)
o Revise master programable logic controller (PLC), so there are redundant
controllers at both City Hall and the Municipal Service Center
o Field modifications to the SCADA servers at Municipal Service Center.
•Change Order #2 (-$4,667 decrease)
o City staff performed the confined space lift station float installation , which saved
money from the contract.
•Change Order #3 ($1,300 increase)
o Field modifications to the operator interface terminal (OIT) at lift stations and
water treatment plants.
•Change Order #4 ($31,176 increase)
o Relocating cellular modern/power supplies for lift stations.
o Various field modifications to control panels on water treatment plants, PLCs and wells.
•Change Order #5 (-$20,294.58 decrease)
o City staff performed control panel concrete pad replacement, which saved money
from the contract.
o Credit o f unused project allowance.
•Total contract increase s due to change orders equal $56,131.42

Title: Approve easement purchase – Beltline Blvd SWLRT pedestrian improvements (4022-2000)
Recommended action: Motion to approve easement purchase at 3440 Beltline Blvd for the
Beltline Blvd SWLRT pedestrian improvements project.
Policy consideration: Does the council wish to proceed with trail construction along Beltline
Boulevard for the Beltline Blvd SWLRT ped estrian improvement project?
Summary: On October 19, 2020, the city council approved the preliminary layout and approved
the design of final plans for the Beltline Blvd SWLRT pedestrian improvements project. In order
to construct this project per the approved layout and within the guidelines of the federal
process , the city needs to acquire permanent and temporary easements from two parcels.
These parcels are owned by one property owner.
The city’s right of way consultant has been working with the property owner to acquire the
necessary permanent and temporary easements since Summer 2020. One of the acquisitions
can be completed administratively. However, Parcel 1 requires the approval of council because
it is above $175,000 per Minnesota Statute 471.345.
Financial or budget considerations: This project is included in the city’s capital improvement
plan (CIP) for 2021. The acquisition of the land will be paid for using general obligation (GO)
bonds.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a variety of options for
people to make their way around the city comfortably, safely and reliably.

Title: Approve easement purchase – Beltline Blvd SWLRT pedestrian improvements (4022-2000)
Discussion
Background: On October 19, 2020, the city council approved the preliminary layout and
authorized the design of final plans for the Beltline Blvd SWLRT pedestrian improvements
project. In order to construct this project per the approved layout, the city needs to acquire
permanent and temporary easements from private property owners. The federal process
guidelines require the purchase of these easements prior to MnDOT authorizing the city to
solicit bids for the project.
Easement acquisition activities: Construction of the approved plan will impact two properties
that have the same owne r and are adjacent to the project area. As a result, it is necessary to
obtain a combination of permanent and temporary easements. The temporary easements are
only needed for the duration of construction and will expire after the construction is complete.
The acquisition of these easements began in summer 2020 with appraisals and initial offers to
the property owner. The property owner brought a counteroffer to the acquisition. The city
attorney recommends that we accept the offer. Acquiring these easements through a
negotiated settlement will mean that the city will meet the federal schedule deadlines for
bidding this project and it will not be necessary to commence eminent domain to obtain these
easements.
The counteroffer for one of the parcels (Parcel 1) is above $175,000, accepting the offer
requires council approval per Minnesota Statute 471.345. The other parcel’s easements (Parcel
2)will be executed administratively.
P arcel 1 – 3440 Beltline Blvd
In order to construct the approved trail on the west side of Beltline Blvd, permanent and
temporary easements must be acquired from 3440 Beltline Blvd. A permanent easement is
necessary for the construction of a retaining wall as well as to facilitate the multi-use trail,
utilities, and drainage. A temporary easement is necessary to construct the retaining wall and
trail. The easements were originally offered at $173,500 and were later counteroffered at
$198,000.

Financial considerations: In the Oct. 19, 2020 report, staff estimated that $211,610 was needed
for right of way acquisition. Due to the counteroffer, the total right of way acquisition cost is
now $235,110.
In addition, since October, we have completed soil borings and continued to hone the approved
design resulting in the plans being more detailed. This has result ed in a reduction in the
estimated construction cost. It should be noted that the construction cost still includes a 20%
contingency. Also, the construction observation for this project will be done by city staff,
resulting in a reduction in engineering and administration cost.
