Title: Proclamation observing Jewish Heritage Month
Recommended action: Mayor to read proclamation observing May as Jewish American heritage
month.
Policy consideration: None
Summary: Jewish American month is observed every May across the country and is especially
meaningful in our city where we have a vibrant and significant Jewish population. Jewish
migration to St. Louis Park was facilitated in part by access to homes that did not have
restrictive covenants against Jewish people, unlike other cities at the time. It has since become
a significant place of Jewish life in Minnesota, being home to several Synagogues and Jewish
schools, businesses, and communities. This month is a time to recognize the contributions of
Jewish Americans and culture in Minnesota.
Financial or budget considerations: None
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to being a leader in racial equity
and inclusion in order to create a more just and inclusive community for all.

Title: Proclamation observing National Small Business Week
Recommended action: Mayor is asked to read the proclamation designating May 4 through 10,
2025, as National Small Business Week.
Policy consideration: Not applicable.
Summary: For over 60 years, the President of the United States has issued a proclamation
announcing National Small Business Week, which recognizes the essential and significant
contributions of America’s entrepreneurs and small business owners. More than half of
Americans either own or work for a small business and they create about two out of every
three new jobs in the U.S. each year.
Small Business Administration (SBA) Administrator, Kelly Loeffler, declared that small business
week celebrates and highlights “the small business owners who fuel prosperity, growth, and
opportunity in communities across our country.” As part of this year’s event, the SBA will host a
free, two-day virtual summit on May 6 and 7, 2025, that will feature critical resources,
educational workshops, and networking to help entrepreneurs grow, seize new opportunities
and start new small businesses.
By promoting National Small Business Week, the City of St. Louis Park continues its long-
standing tradition of recognizing its more than 2,100 local businesses and all they contribute to
enrich the economic and social fabric of the city.
In addition to this proclamation, this recognition will be promoted on the city’s website and
through social media.
Financial or budget considerations: Not applicable.
Strategic priority consideration: St. Louis Park is committed to providing a broad range of
housing and neighborhood oriented development.

Whereas, small businesses are the backbone of St. Louis Park’s economy; and
Whereas, according to the U.S. Small Business Administration, there are nearly 547,500

Week every year since 1963 to highlight the programs and services available to entrepreneurs

St. Louis Park, Minnesota
March 24, 2025
Council members present: Mayor Nadia Mohamed, Sue Budd, Yolanda Farris, Lynette Dumalag,
and Margaret Rog
Council members absent: Tim Brausen and Paul Baudhuin
Staff present: City manager (Ms. Keller), city assessor (Mr. Bultema), engineering director (Ms.
Heiser), city appraiser (Ms. Nathanson)
Discussion items
1. 2025 Market Value Overview
Mr. Bultema presented the overview for the city as a whole and focused on the residential
sectors. Ms. Nathanson then discussed the commercial, industrial and apartment market.
Council Member Budd asked for the number of condominiums in the city. Mr. Bultema stated
the number currently stands at 2,830.
Council Member Dumalag asked if there is Tax Increment Financing (TIF) for some of the office
spaces. Ms. Nathanson stated that 10 West End is the only one, and there have been no new
office developments of late.
Council Member Rog asked if there is a relatively high amount of industrial property for a
suburb of St. Louis Park’s size. Mr. Bultema stated no, the amount is considered normal to low.
Ms. Nathanson added that cost of land for industrial use is high for developers.
Council Member Rog asked which office owners the city has spoken with. Mr. Bultema stated
staff has contacted Metro Point, Park Place East and West, Towers at West End (formerly
known as the Parkdales) and now the West End Office Park, which is slated for redevelopment.
He added they have also reached out to the 5353 Building in the northern side of the West End
office park. Every large-scale office building has filed an appeal over the last three years.
Council Member Dumalag asked what happens if a building goes into receivership. Mr. Bultema
gave the example of Park Place East and West. When a building goes into receivership, it is
because they are not meeting metrics, but the banks generally do not want to foreclose due to
massive discounts.
Council Member Rog asked a question she had received from a constituent. She stated they
have an open permit for work that was done, they want it closed, and they are worried the
value of their home may be determined to be greater. Mr. Bultema stated staff goes through all
the permits each year, reviews those that have value influence, and then visits the property. He
City council meeting of April 21, 2025 (Item No. 4a) Page 2
Title: Study session meeting minutes of March 24, 2025
stated if someone spends $100,000 on a kitchen remodel, they would not be adding $100,000
improved market value to their home; possibly increasing the value by $30,000. He stated the
only work that often has a positive relationship to value is cleaning and painting.
Council Member Rog asked what the vacancy is currently for Class A properties. Ms. Nathanson
stated it varies by property.
Council Member Dumalag asked how co-ops are valued and if they are similar to apartments.
Mr. Bultema stated Aquila Commons is a classic example of folks buying a share in the
corporation that owns the real estate, but it competes primarily with condominiums. He stated
that the senior-oriented buildings have a lower value.
Council Member Rog asked about Mr. Bultema’s comments on the significant conversion of
single-family homes to duplexes. Mr. Bultema stated he expects the market to respond with
structure renovations to create a duplex usage and that he would not be surprised to see
conversions in the future. He also stated that their review of value influence does not find a
detrimental value of well converted duplexes mixing into established residential
neighborhoods.
2. Public parking areas
Ms. Heiser presented the report and noted the policy questions: Does the council wish to
continue the past assessment policy (as laid out in this report)? Does the council support staff
recommendations on next steps for the evaluated public parking areas?
Council Member Rog stated that uses can and do change and asked if this is something that can
be integrated. Ms. Heiser stated that when an assessment is brought forward, the city needs to
prove benefit for the property, and it would be difficult to prove a benefit if no one from a
property is using the parking lot.
Council Member Rog asked if this is a change and noted previously the city was thinking that
the reconstruction of these municipal parking lots would be assessed to property owners. Ms.
Heiser stated yes, this is a change, and the cost to reconstruct certain parking areas will be paid
for similar to the parking areas in the Walker Lake Historic District.
Council Member Rog asked if parking could be enforced by use of time limits. Ms. Keller stated
officers would enforce by addressing complaints and use education with frequent users of the
area.
Council Member Budd asked about the parking areas presented. Ms. Heiser stated there were
four parking areas that were studied for the purposes of this report.
Mayor Mohamed presented Council Member Baudhuin’s comments stating he supports staff's
second policy recommendation on next steps on parking areas. He stated he wants to consider
the first policy consideration further before stating whether he supports it.
Mayor Mohamed stated she supports both policy considerations.

Council Member Farris stated she also supports both policy considerations.
Council Member Budd stated she supports both policy considerations.
Council Member Rog stated she supports both policy considerations but is still curious about
the assessment policy, how the use changes when ownership changes, and how that works out
for the property owner.
Council Member Dumalag also supports both policy considerations.

Highway 100, so please watch for detours and also check the Hennepin County website.
Minnetonka Boulevard will be closed through November 2025 for this road construction
project.
Ms. Brodeen stated the 10-year visioning process for the city is beginning and there are
opportunities for residents to engage in the conversation. She noted that training sessions will
begin in early May for residents to be trained in how to begin conversations on visioning. She
invited interested residents to visit the city website for more details.
Council Member Rog stated that tomorrow night, April 8, Hennepin County will host an open
house for information about the Minnetonka Boulevard project west of Highway 100 and up to
Xylon Avenue. She stated this is tomorrow night from 6-7:30 p.m. at Lenox Community Center.
Council Member Baudhuin commented on Paige Bueckers’ win of a national basketball
championship, noting she cut her teeth in St. Louis Park, and that is important. He stated the
city is proud of Ms. Buecker. Mayor Mohamed suggested the council will have to invite Ms.
Bueckers to city hall someday.
Mayor Mohamed stated the Union Flats grand opening is tomorrow, April 8, in Ward 2, and
Council Member Baudhuin will be there to greet residents.

Guests: Chair Drew Keogh and Vice Chair Konner Slaats, Community Technology Advisory
Commission (CTAC)
Discussion items
1. Police facility assessment presentation
Mr. Eisold, Mr. Kruelle and Mr. Nadem presented the staff report. It was noted that since the
current police department facility was built in 1993, operational needs have changed, including
a shift in officers’ gender-specific needs within facilities, training requirements and a 40%
increase in staff. Additionally, several large infrastructure items are due for replacement or
enhancement, such as air conditioning, roof, shooting range targeting systems and
windows/glass.
Both the operational and functional needs led to requesting a facility assessment of the police
department facility, which was included in the 2024 Capital Improvement Plan. Staff hired BKV
Group to perform a facility and space needs assessment of the current police department
facility. The resulting assessment indicates the facility is not viable for long-term operations and
department goals, identifying deficiencies such as a shortage of operational space, inequitable
facilities for officers depending on gender, and a lack of space for health/wellness, inclusivity
and training.
Council Member Dumalag asked how the proposal of 71,000 square feet was developed. Mr.
Eisold stated that the proposal is based on comparison with other similar facilities, given
staffing levels based on industry standards and core services as identified by the city.
Ms. Keller asked if the Edina facility has an indoor, built-in fleet space, or if only the newer
buildings such as the one in Burnsville have that type of space. Chief Kruelle stated that Edina
does have it.
City council meeting of May 5, 2025 (Item No. 4c) Page 2
Title: Study session meeting minutes of April 14, 2025
Council Member Farris noted the square footage on comparable facilities versus the St. Louis
Park facilities and the discrepancies from one facility to the next.
Council Member Dumalag asked about total square footage space per person including storage,
but not just office space. Mr. Eisold stated that the space is the total number of employees
divided by the gross square footage, including garage and storage space.
Council Member Dumalag noted that other facilities may utilize their spaces differently or need
more storage space because they have different programs. Mr. Eisold agreed and stated each
facility has its own needs for certain square footage amounts.
Council Member Dumalag stated St. Louis Park is not deficient in its training and makes
accommodations elsewhere, if needed, adding she wanted to point that out. Mr. Kruelle agreed
and added that staff work very hard to ensure staff are trained and have the equipment
needed, and are supported.
Chief Kruelle stated one of the areas of concern noted in the facility study was that the current
facility is inadequate and has inequitable locker room space for female staff, which is a barrier
to hiring and retaining employees. Essentially, the facility is out of space in this area, at a time
when community service officers (CSO) are being hired. With the majority of our recent CSO
hires being female, this has only served to exacerbate the current locker room space issue.
Chief Kruelle added that inabilities to support current training requirements have become an
issue also: as mandates have changed, training requirements have changed. He stated they are
using spaces that are not meant for training, which causes challenges with safety and also
limiting what they can accomplish.
Chief Kruelle also noted there is a lack of interview rooms for investigations and for
interviewing suspects, with no element of privacy.
Chief Kruelle identified a fourth area of concern being the lack of community space for
collaboration. He explained that high-level technology squad cars used by the police need an
indoor facility to be housed. Mr. Eisold noted police cars are stored outside and all over the city
currently, which causes issues, especially when dealing with the elements.
Council Member Brausen asked what percentage of the day the average squad car is in use.
Chief Kruelle stated it is a significant portion of the day, and would report back if needed.
Council Member Brausen said it was not necessary.
Council Member Baudhuin asked how facilities impact the police department's ability to recruit
new officers. Mr. Nadem stated it is a significant impact, especially with the younger generation
who want to earn a salary but also want a positive environment in which to work, as well as
technology and training facilities to support their work and allow them to grow. The police
department wants to maintain the current positive culture and also continue to attract top
candidates. This especially becomes more difficult when cities around St. Louis Park continue to
improve their facilities.
City council meeting of May 5, 2025 (Item No. 4c) Page 3
Title: Study session meeting minutes of April 14, 2025
Council Member Baudhuin asked about the fuel used to heat and cool squad cars, especially
since they house an office and a hospital within them. He also asked about a cost analysis on
this and if a temperature-controlled garage would cost less in terms of energy used than the
amount of fuel being burned by keeping cars running all the time. Chief Kruelle gave the
example of another facility who noted significant fuel reductions with indoor vehicle facilities.
He stated there are opportunities within this space.
Chief Kruelle explained that when recruiting, it is important to remember officers come to work
for 12 to13 hours per day and they want an environment that feels comfortable, a facility that
supports wellness, training, locker rooms, and fits all their equipment comfortably. He stated
St. Louis Park does a great job of recruiting, but he has no doubt the police force is challenged
to draw candidates because of facilities challenges.
Council Member Budd asked how many comparable department buildings also have jail
facilities. Chief Kruelle stated there is some variability, but noted St. Louis Park is on the higher
side in terms of how long they can house inmates. He noted in a new facility, there would be an
opportunity to decrease the footprint and not operate at the 72-hour capacity any longer. He
added that because the inmate space is very fortified, it will be difficult to reconstruct.
Mayor Mohamed asked if someone is held over the weekend if they are arrested on a Friday.
Chief Kruelle stated St. Louis Park had moved out of that platform during the COVID-19
pandemic. He stated there were savings in this area in the past when fewer inmates were
housed initially at Hennepin County, but there are also risks from this approach.
Council Member Farris asked if St. Louis Park will begin housing inmates again or will continue
to move them directly to Hennepin County. Chief Kruelle stated that since 2020, moving
inmates to Hennepin County has become the practice. St. Louis Park police continue to process
driving-while-intoxicated (DWI) cases, but once that process is over, inmates are transferred to
Hennepin County.
Council Member Dumalag asked about the police force hiring more diverse staff and about
increased facility needs to support diverse staffing. Mr. Nadem stated proposed new locker
room space will be gender neutral. Wellness rooms will provide space for female staff who are
mothers, and for officers who need a space in which to rest when necessary. Mr. Kruelle added
that the police department’s large staff comprises field officers, dispatch operators, records
administration and many others.
Mr. Eisold stated there are three options to consider:
1. Maintaining the existing facility with no expansion, remaining at the status quo at a
cost of $5 million over the next ten years.
2. Continued maintenance of facility, additional ventilation work, expansion of the
existing facility impacting the park area surrounding, remodeling 70% of the existing
building, and additional multiple spaces totaling 44,000 square feet.
3. Tear down the existing structure and construct a new building with costs financed
through bonding.
City council meeting of May 5, 2025 (Item No. 4c) Page 4
Title: Study session meeting minutes of April 14, 2025
Mayor Mohamed asked if the maintenance costs would still need to be considered with option
two. Mr. Eisold stated yes that is correct, maintenance costs would remain.
Council Member Dumalag asked what the next steps would be. Mr. Eisold stated given council
direction, a more in-depth feasibility study would be conducted.
Council Member Dumalag acknowledged that there are costs involved and asked if options two
and three could be studied further. Mr. Eisold stated that further study could be conducted if
directed by the council.
Council Member Baudhuin asked if option three would impact the public park adjacent to the
police facility. Mr. Eisold stated yes, options two and three would impact the park, but that
would need to be reviewed. Council Member Baudhuin stated he would like the parks and
recreation department to be included in considerations that impact the park.
Ms. Keller stated that parks and recreation have been involved related to the ball fields and
tennis courts, and are definitely part of the conversation.
Council Member Budd asked if building a new facility of 71,000 square feet would put St. Louis
Park far beyond any of the comparison city facilities at 845 square feet per person. Mr. Eisold
stated yes and added that accommodating today's needs as well as those of the future is the
main concern.
Council Member Rog stated a 30-year life span for a building seems to be short, and noted the
proposed building also has a projected use of 30 years. She asked if this was typical. Mr. Eisold
stated that is correct, adding it seems to be a short amount of time, but space being the big
driver compared to other cities is the concern.
Council Member Rog asked if there is a way to increase the long-term sustainability of these
buildings. Mr. Eisold stated that it may be possible with new construction of a bigger building,
but then the comparisons to other cities’ facilities will change.
Ms. Keller stated that the future of policing, the philosophy of community policing, and the
city’s approach will also help determine the outcome of future facilities' sustainability.
Council Member Farris added that the space is needed for more future female police officers
who have children and who are nursing. She stated the city has to change with the times.
Mayor Mohamed stated she does not support option one, adding she is considering options
two and three. She understands the need and supports this conversation, but added that things
will only get more expensive in the future. She stated she is currently supporting option two
and would like to see a more in-depth feasibility study.
Council Member Rog asked if there is any consideration for community spaces being integrated
into a future building, and if so, what is the vision. Mr. Eisold stated that it could certainly be an
option, and in the next study, that could be explored.
City council meeting of May 5, 2025 (Item No. 4c) Page 5
Title: Study session meeting minutes of April 14, 2025
Council Member Rog stated she supports doing an in-depth feasibility study on options two and
three.
Council Members Budd, Farris and Baudhuin agreed with Council Member Rog. Council
Member Baudhuin added he is in favor of getting a good analysis on both options two and
three, and investing as heavily as possible to get the most out of sustainability. He added that
police facilities are generally supported by residents, regardless of views on policing.
Council Member Dumalag agreed and stated that while option two seems more cost-effective,
she would also like to see a feasibility study on the third option, especially when looking at
space for investigations. She noted that this is not a facility that all residents will enter,
especially because of the sensitive nature and security aspects of the work. She added it is not
like the Westwood Nature Center, and that a closed session may be needed when discussing a
future facility, as it falls under safety.
Council Member Brausen stated he is also supportive of studying options two and three for
many of the same reasons as other council members have indicated. He stated the council is
looking at several facilities right now, so to understand the city’s infrastructure and plans for
the next 30 years, it would be useful to have a chart showing when city buildings were built, the
costs, all of the major facilities, and when they were upgraded. He stated this would help with
timing, especially with regards to bonding and financing.
Council Member Rog asked if there is a cost estimate for the feasibility study. Ms. Keller stated
the cost of a study is not known at this time; $50,000 is budgeted for studies.
Council Member Budd asked if there would be any repercussions from tariff costs, making it
difficult to do a feasibility study. Mr. Eisold stated the study would not be affected, but tariffs
may impact estimates.
Council Member Baudhuin noted that in the meantime, until a new facility can be built, it would
be helpful to make some improvements, such as a carport to house squad cars in the interim.
2. Boards and commissions check in with city council: community technology advisory
commission
Mr. Coleman presented the staff report, noting that the community technology advisory
commission will do a check-in tonight. He introduced CTAC Chair Drew Keogh and Vice Chair
Konner Slaats.
Mr. Coleman stated this overview will feature the CTAC’s approved work plan, completed tasks,
ongoing projects and strategies. He added there will also be discussion and feedback from the
council and potential modifications or additions to the work plan.
Chair Keogh stated CTAC’s work considers the whole of the city's neighborhoods, as well as the
city’s diverse population. He stated St. Louis Park is a very sought-after location, which draws all
types of people, so CTAC considers all of this when looking at communications and technology
within the city.
City council meeting of May 5, 2025 (Item No. 4c) Page 6
Title: Study session meeting minutes of April 14, 2025
Council Member Rog asked how often CTAC meets. Chair Keogh stated every other month.
Council Member Rog asked if the meeting schedule could be a barrier in providing feedback on
what the city is doing.
Chair Keogh stated they meet every other month to talk about opportunities and what they are
hearing in the community. He stated if CTAC were tasked with projects and deliverables, they
would meet more frequently. He added that if the council were to come to them with questions
or concerns, they would definitely meet more often.
Council Member Rog noted some ideas about community outreach related to internet access.
She suggested that CTAC have a table at city events during the year, such as the Senior Fair,
Juneteenth, or Children First programs, where they could help people understand technology
options. She referenced Vision 4.0 and stated CTAC could participate or encourage those with a
technological background to participate in engagement sessions. She added with outreach,
there are also opportunities to provide drop-in opportunities for seniors at the Lenox Center.
Council Member Rog stated that CTAC members could bring expertise to drafting research and
writing “white papers” that the city could utilize to make timely decisions about ADA or the city
website.
Council Member Budd stated in addition to what Council Member Rog has said, it would also be
helpful if CTAC could produce a brochure that could be shared at city events year-round. She
asked if CTAC has ideas about keeping the website as engaging as possible, and also if the city is
actually engaging the public.
Chair Keogh agreed that metrics could be developed and measured. He added that to be
feasible, they would first need to know how to build, implement and track metrics.
Mike Siegler, previous CTAC chair, added that technology is immense, metrics are available, and
are a best practice of what businesses and governments do. He stated CTAC is not always able
to make changes, especially since much of this work is already being conducted by staff. He
stated there has been an issue with CTAC staying engaged and proactive, and they continue to
look at what is achievable. He noted CTAC would need to be involved earlier in the process.
Council Member Budd asked if CTAC has seen the new communication forms between boards
and commissions and the council. Mr. Siegler stated he has not.
Council Member Budd stated she does not see items such as this on the CTAC work plan. Mr.
Siegler agreed that the CTAC work plan is very light, adding that there is much more to be
engaged with. He stated CTAC is back to where they started, they do not have a mandate, and
there is no real need for CTAC but possibly a desire. He added he likes the “white paper” idea.
Council Member Budd noted that tabling at events can also help to get CTAC front facing with
the public and forwarding messages. Mr. Siegler stated that is true, but added CTAC would
need assistance to do tabling.
City council meeting of May 5, 2025 (Item No. 4c) Page 7
Title: Study session meeting minutes of April 14, 2025
Council Member Budd pointed out that the National League of Cities and the League of
Minnesota Cities both provide newsletters that provide technology information that city
governments need to be aware of. She encouraged CTAC to get on that mailing list, which
would be helpful.
Chair Keogh stated the council does not know what they do not know. He added that the CTAC
work plan is a way for the commission to be effective and provide information to the council.
He stated CTAC wants to get in front of issues, ideas and plans that the council may suggest,
and noted that if a different work plan is needed, CTAC can provide that.
Council Member Baudhuin stated his appreciation for CTAC’s report and its engagement in the
city. He stated he would like to see a list of CTAC's goals and what they need to achieve them.
Chair Keogh stated CTAC could recommend a roadmap to the council in various areas, including
safety, marketing and communications, adding that this could be a valuable work item.
Mayor Mohamed noted there are issues with artificial intelligence (AI), and stated she thinks
about misinformation and miscommunication. She asked what CTAC’s role of expertise may be
in this area, and how they communicate with residents about it. Chair Keogh stated it is the
consumer’s responsibility to understand AI. He stated there is no way to control it at this time.
He added that AI and cybercrimes are an epidemic, so awareness and training, as well as
support systems, are needed.
Council Member Dumalag stated her concerns include gaps and access to technology. She
stated people may not be aware of the technology available to them and she is interested in
user experience related to any front-facing technologies, such as the city website. She agreed
the dashboard information is difficult to access, and noted that educating residents on
cybercrime and victimization is important. She stated the police department may have
information that can help educate the greater public. She stated it will be important how the
infrastructure is built with technology.
Chair Keogh stated the best outcome for the community is most important, and CTAC can help
create recommendations.
Council Member Brausen added that CTAC is in a difficult spot, as there are dedicated and
salaried city staff who support technology already. He asked how the CTAC, in an advisory role,
can be integrated with staff and how CTAC members' knowledge can be utilized best.
Chair Keogh stated the CTAC is a group of volunteer consultants that staff can and should use.
He suggested staff do their work and continue to come to CTAC to be a checkpoint before an
item comes to council, adding this would be a way for CTAC to continue to be of assistance.
Council Member Brausen stated that updates on US Cable service to residents can also be
valuable information to convey.
Council Member Rog stated the council’s expectation is that staff will leverage the expertise of
board and commission members.
City council meeting of May 5, 2025 (Item No. 4c) Page 8
Title: Study session meeting minutes of April 14, 2025
Ms. Keller added that staff work hard to lean on boards and commissions and their expertise,
and there is a healthy tension between those providing information on policy to council versus
staff making technical decisions about operational items. She stated that at times, the lane can
be different related to utilizing board and commission members' expertise and governance, and
this tension is always being navigated.
Council Member Rog stated the “white paper” idea continues to be an option. She noted
another project for CTAC may be to assist staff with input about the future police station and
the latest and greatest technology.
Chair Keogh added that bridging communication on how to build the budget related to the
updated police station may also help to validate the process.
Council Member Rog reminded CTAC of the advisory communication tool and about submitting
this to council for the purpose of providing input. She added that partnering with the senior
center might also be an option for utilizing the advisory communication tool, and also
submitting communication to the council about the dashboard.
Chair Keogh stated CTAC will discuss the advisory communication tool at their next meeting and
decide what topics and information can be submitted to the council through the advisory
communication tool. He added this discussion has been helpful, and directives can be taken
back to the commission for further discussion.
Mayor Mohamed stated the point of boards and commissions is to advise council, and the
effectiveness of this is determined by the council to commissions. She added that taxpayers
have already spent dollars to utilize staff for their expertise and noted she wants to be sure
council does not start going into small bowl items.
Council Member Baudhuin stated that staff drafts policy, the council represents the people, and
boards and commissions are an extension of representing the people, which leads to more
engagement with the community. He stated this is important, and he encouraged CTAC to think
about this as they do their work.
Ben Straus, a CTAC commissioner in attendance, introduced himself.
Ms. Keller stated common themes from tonight’s discussion with CTAC are providing feedback
on policies, and how community will experience technology, such as through the city website.
She added how community accesses technology, making smart decisions around technology
through events and tabling, and the concept of value proposition on projects, while being
thoughtful, are other themes from tonight’s discussion.
Written Reports
3. Aquatic park assessment results
4. Results of off-leash dog park location review
City council meeting of May 5, 2025 (Item No. 4c) Page 9
Title: Study session meeting minutes of April 14, 2025
Council Member Baudhuin asked if the parks noted in the written report are the only possible
locations for dog parks. Ms. Keller stated no, adding that as potential sites are identified, they
can be sent to her or Ms. Walsh for review.
Council Member Baudhuin stated he would like to see a dog park located in the southern part
of the city, as there are already two in the north end.
Council Member Dumalag noted there are no dog parks east of Highway 100 either, adding
Browndale neighborhood has always been interested in a dog park.
Council Member Brausen stated Lamplighter Park would be a great location for a dog park as
well.
Council Member Rog stated the criteria for parks were good, but noted the one-half acre could
be limiting. She stated that additions made to the dog park location review were helpful as well.
Ms. Keller referred to the aquatic park assessment written report and stated if the council
supports aquatic park improvements, $2.2 million would be added to the CIP for the
improvements outlined in the report. She stated that staff is also exploring other types of
funding.
The meeting adjourned at 8:11 p.m.

Title: Approve bid for Lift Station #10 Replacement Project (4025-3100) - Ward 1
Recommended action: Motion to designate Pember Companies, Inc., as the lowest responsible
bidder and authorize the execution of a contract with the firm in the amount of $686,336.10 for
the Lift Station #10 Replacement project (4025-3100).
Policy consideration: Does the city council wish to rehabilitate sanitary sewer infrastructure?
Summary: Bids were received on March 24, 2025, to replace the existing sanitary sewer lift
station located in Webster Park. A total of eight (8) bids were received for this project. A
summary of the bid results is as follows:
Contractor Bid amount
Pember Companies, Inc. $686,336.10
Meyer Contracting, Inc. $695,043.93
R & R Excavating, Inc $699,603.19
Minger Construction Company, Inc. $718,704.80

S.M. Hentges & Son, Inc. $763,522.50
New Look Contracting, Inc. $767,886.15
Geislinger & Sons, Inc. $823,876.00
A review of the bids indicates Pember Companies, Inc., submitted the lowest responsible bid.

Title: Approve bid for Lift Station #10 Replacement Project (4025-3100) - Ward 1
Discussion
Background: The existing sanitary lift station #10, located in Webster Park, was built in the
1950’s and was rehabilitated in 1973. This sanitary lift station needs to be replaced due to
failing concrete and an aging force main. This project includes constructing a new lift station
next to the existing one, reconstructing the sanitary sewer force main and removing the
existing lift station. ISG, the city’s engineering consultant, has developed construction plans and
specifications for the project.
An advertisement for bids was published in the St. Louis Park Sun Sailor on April 3 and April 10,
2025, and in Finance & Commerce from April 3 through April 9, 2025. In addition, plans and
specifications were made available electronically via the internet on the city’s OneOffice
website. Information regarding the bidding opportunity was shared with three minority
associations and 33 Disadvantaged Business Enterprises (DBE) contractors.
Thirty-two (32) contractors/vendors downloaded plan sets, one (1) of which was a
Disadvantaged Business Enterprise (DBE).
Financial considerations: Based on the low bid received, cost and funding details on the project
are as follows:
CIP Low bid
Construction cost $618,800.00 $686,336.10
Engineering and administration $154,700.00 $70,200.00
Base bid total $773,500.00 $756,536.10
Funding sources
Sanitary sewer utility $773,500.00 $756,536.10
Total $773,500.00 $756,536.10
Due to the nature of construction projects, unexpected costs do come up. The capital funds
have unobligated balances that can be used to handle cost overruns above and beyond the
awarded bid.
Next steps: All work in this contract shall be completed by Nov. 21, 2025.

Executive summary
Title: Approve mobility sharing licenses for Spin and Lime
Recommended action: Motion to adopt resolution approving a mobility sharing license for Spin
and Lime.
Policy consideration: Does the city council want to implement a mobility sharing program for
2025?
Summary: City code sections 30-212 to 30-258 regulate mobility sharing. The ordinance defines
mobility sharing, authorizes the city’s ability to impound devices, requires providers to have a
city license and establishes fees. The ordinance also establishes up to three permits to operate
mobility sharing (bikes, low-power vehicles (scooters), or vehicle sharing). The ordinance took
effect on May 10, 2019, and Spin was the first mobility sharing service to operate in the city.
No mobility sharing companies operated in the city in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic or in
2024 because there was no interest from vendors. Spin was the provider in 2022 and 2023.
This year, to expand the mobility sharing coverage area, staff undertook a collaborative multi-
jurisdictional request for application (RFA) with the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board and
the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, along with the cities of Minneapolis, St. Paul and
Hopkins to ensure that all communities could be served by the same providers for the 2025
season. This was due in large part to ensure that programs in each community were bolstered
by users being able to travel between communities.
In the fall of 2024, a joint RFA was issued and met with proposal responses from Beam, Lime
and Spin. Staff from the six agencies met and evaluated the proposal and ultimately
recommended Spin and Lime as the providers. Each vendor will deploy 50 scooters, for a total
of 100 scooters within the City of St. Louis Park for the 2025 season.
Financial or budget considerations: Each vendor will pay a licensing fee of $100 per scooter, or
$5,000 to deploy 50 scooters for the 2025 season. This will help cover staff time and
infrastructure costs. Any other costs related to this policy are negligible and will come from the
general operating budget.
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.

Discussion
Background: City code sections 30-212 to 30-258 regulate mobility sharing operations within St.
Louis Park. The ordinance defines mobility sharing, authorizes the city’s ability to impound
devices, requires providers to have a city license and establishes fees. The ordinance also
establishes up to three permits available to operate mobility sharing (bikes, low-power vehicles
(scooters), or vehicle sharing). The ordinance took effect on May 10, 2019, and Spin was the
first mobility sharing service to operate in the city.
No mobility sharing companies operated in the city in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic or in
2024 because there was no interest. Spin was the provider in 2022 and 2023.
Present considerations: This year, to expand the mobility sharing coverage area, staff
undertook a collaborative multi-jurisdictional request for application (RFA) with the
Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board and the University of Minnesota Twin Cities, along with
the cities of Minneapolis, St. Paul and Hopkins. Our goal was to attract more vendors and
possibly bike services, which are available in Minneapolis. While unsuccessful with bike share
vendors, the process attracted three (3) scooter companies with competitive proposals.
Initially, each vendor will deploy 50 scooters, for a total of 100 scooters available within the
city. A maximum of 250 devices, split among all licenses, may be authorized by the city. The city
will evaluate the performance of the program during its length and can increase or decrease
the maximum number of devices allowed based on performance metrics and ordinance
compliance.
The city has received no responses from bike or vehicle-sharing companies. However, there is
one additional license available, and the city will accept additional service requests. Should
additional vendors show interest in deploying in the city, staff will update the council.
Next steps: If approved, Spin and Lime will operate under a similar license agreement as was
executed in 2023. The agreement lays out the structure of the program, which has not had
many major changes since 2019. A full explanation of the city’s mobility sharing program
structure is in the March 25, 2019 study session report. If approved, the mobility sharing
agreement would extend through March 1, 2026, with scooters available within the city until
Nov. 1, 2025.

recommend their approval for a mobility sharing license; and
Whereas, St. Louis Park is committed to providing a variety of options for people to make

2. Additional Uses. Licensee expressly understands and agrees that this Agreement does not grant
Licensee or its contractors the ability to exclude, or prohibit others from using, the City Right of
Way. Licensee further understands and agrees that the City holds its interest in the City Right of

Executive summary
Title: Resolution authorizing agreement with the Minnesota Department of Transportation for
Interstate 394 project (4025-8000) - Ward 4
Recommended action: Motion to adopt a resolution authorizing the city to enter into a
cooperative construction agreement with the Minnesota Department of Transportation
(MnDOT) for the I-394 and Louisiana Avenue project (city project no. 4025-8000).
Policy consideration: None
Summary: In 2025, MnDOT will be performing construction at I-394 and Louisiana Avenue,
including:
• Construction of an extension of the general-purpose lane on eastbound I-394 from the
Louisiana Avenue exit ramp to the Louisiana Avenue entrance ramp.
• Construction of a new auxiliary lane from the eastbound Louisiana Avenue on-ramp to
the Xenia Avenue/Park Place Boulevard exit.
• Replace I-394 and Louisiana Avenue north and south ramp signal systems.
• Remove channelized right turns at the I-394 and Louisiana Avenue north and south
ramp intersections.
• Relocate city watermain on Wayzata Boulevard between 500 feet west of Dakota
Avenue and Dakota Avenue.
On Sept. 16, 2024, the council passed a resolution approving municipal consent for this project.
The city and state share responsibilities for the construction and maintenance of the roadway,
utilities, sidewalks and signals. MnDOT Agreement 1058886 provides detailed assignments and
descriptions of the respective responsibilities. The agreement is consistent with other
agreements currently in place for signals in St. Louis Park.
Financial or budget considerations: This project is included in the city's 2025 capital
improvement plan (CIP). The city's cost share of the MnDOT project is $220,000, which will be
paid for using municipal state aid funds.
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.

project (4025-8000) - Ward 4
Discussion
Background: In 2025, MnDOT will be performing construction at I-394 and Louisiana Avenue.
The city's municipal consent was required for this project because it requires acquisition of
permanent rights in two areas along Wayzata Boulevard, a city-owned street. On Sept. 16,
2024, the council passed a resolution approving municipal consent for the MnDOT I-394 and
Louisiana Avenue project.
In addition to the lane work on I-394, this project also includes the reconstruction of the signal
at the eastbound I-394 and Louisiana Avenue ramps. Operation, maintenance and replacement
of this signal are covered by an agreement between the City of St. Louis Park and MnDOT. As
laid out in the agreement, the city has agreed to participate in signal replacement costs based
on the number of legs of the signal under our jurisdiction. Due to this, the city is obligated to
pay for half of the cost to replace this signal system as part of this project.
Additional information on this project can be found in the Sept. 9, 2024 council report, the
Sept. 16, 2024 study session report and the Oct. 7, 2024, council report.
Next steps: The proposed construction schedule for MnDOT’s project is for construction to
occur from July 2025 to November 2025.

Executive summary
Title: Approve temporary/seasonal premises amendment for Park Tavern Lounge & Lanes
Recommended action: Motion to approve amendment to the licensed premises for Phillips
Investment Co. dba Park Tavern Lounge & Lanes, located at 3401 Louisiana Avenue South.
Policy consideration: Does the applicant meet the requirements to amend the licensed
premises for the sale and service of alcohol at Park Tavern Lounge & Lanes?
Summary: Phillips Investment Co. dba Park Tavern Lounge & Lanes currently holds an on-sale
intoxicating liquor license with Sunday sales. The license holder applied for an amendment to
the existing licensed premises located at 3401 Louisiana Avenue South. The proposed
amendment will add approximately 1,380 square feet of seasonal-use outdoor space and will
provide occupancy for an additional 34 guests. A permit for the seasonal-use outdoor space has
been approved by the city after review by zoning and building staff. If approved by the council,
the proposed amendment to the licensed premises for the sale and service of alcohol will be
valid for the duration of the permit. If the license holder wants to utilize the seasonal-use
outdoor space in future years they will need to go through the permitting and premises
amendment processes.
St. Louis Park City Code Section 3-68 (a) states “each license shall be issued only for the exact
rooms and square footage described in the application. A license is valid only in the compact
and contiguous building or structure situated on the premises described in the license”.
St. Louis Park City Code Section 3-106 states that “proposed enlargement or substantial
alteration which changes the character of the licensed establishment or extension of a premises
previously licensed shall not be allowed unless the city council approves an amendment to the
liquor license”.
All zoning and building requirements have been met and additional SAC charges have been paid
to the Met Council. The applicant has provided proof of liquor liability insurance to cover the
additional temporary outdoor space. Staff recommend approval of the proposed premises
amendment.

Executive summary
Title: Proposed study session topic - Dakota Bridge Public Art - Ward 1
Recommended action: City council and city manager review the proposed agenda topic and
determine next steps.
Policy consideration: Does the city council want to move forward with consideration of the
proposed topic?
Summary: Councilmembers Baudhuin, Brausen and Rog submitted a proposed agenda topic
related to the public art components of the Dakota-Edgewood bridge. City staff provided a
high-level analysis of the request, including a proposed process for the council to consider a
stable funding mechanism and a policy to guide the selection process and use of public funds
for art. The next step is for the council to decide, as a group, if they want to move forward with
work outlined in the staff analysis.
Financial or budget considerations: As a part of the 2026 budget process, staff will be
proposing a stable mechanism for funding public art. The council will have an opportunity to
choose to allocate funds for public art projects, such as this one. The intent is to have funding
dedicated to public art opportunities and any potential ongoing maintenance of art that falls
outside of the scope of other economic development, infrastructure projects or already
budgeted for public art. Although the council provided direction to staff in 2020 to budget
$80,000 for bridge art, funding was never appropriated due to the focus on recovery from the
COVID-19 pandemic.

Study Session Topic Proposal
Staff Analysis
Date: 4/9/2025
Prepared by: Debra Heiser, engineering director and Cheyenne Brodeen, administrative
services director.
Proposed agenda topic: Dakota Edgewood Bridge Public Art
Staff analysis of request:
History of Dakota Edgewood bridge public art: Staff are providing a summary of the
evolution of the project and where things stand as of today.
2018
•The original design of the bridge in late 2018 included typical enhancements
such as decorative railing, decorative concrete, and bridge lighting.
2019
•As the project progressed in design the council directed staff to include
public art (via artist) into the project. Friends of the Arts (FOTA), Peter Hobart
School, Historical Society and city staff met in early 2019 to discuss art ideas.
•In June of 2019 FOTA sent out request for proposals for art on the bridge.
•Preliminary art is identified through FOTA and conversations with city
departments.
2020
•In early March of 2020 staff presented three art components to the council:
Student art on the bridge pier, budgeted at $8,000.
Decorative concrete adjacent to the student art with a local artist
Angela Two Stars, budgeted at $10, 942.
Stainless steel tubes in a lattice pattern on both the north and south
sides of the railroad, budgeted at $97,000
•The costs to anchor the stainless-steel tubes into the bridge piers increased
the art from approximately $116,000 to $265, 351.
•In late March of 2020, the consensus of the council was to remove the
stainless-steel art but to move forward with the student art and decorative
Special study session meeting of May 5, 2025 (Item No. 1)
Title: Proposed study session topic - Dakota Bridge Public Art - Ward 1 Page 3
concrete ($18,942). The council approved the bridge project and included
reference to allocating $80,000 for public art components (and to use the
remaining funding to explore additional art with FOTA, offline of the
engineering design). The $80,000 was expected to come from the city’s
development fund.
2020 – COVID
•Covid shuts down all non-essential work.
•Since the stainless-steel components and the decorative concrete were
complementary and in the same proposal, the decorative concrete was also
removed. The thought was it would allow the next artist to have a wholistic
approach to art and free up the funding set aside for the concrete.
•With the downturn in the economy and lodging in particular, full funding was
not identified in the next budget cycle.
•Additional art ideas were still discussed with FOTA and city staff in the hopes
of restarting art at this location.
Late 2020 and 2021
•The construction of the bridge begins in late 2020
•Student art with Peter Hobart students continues to move forward and is
under development as the bridge is being constructed.
•The bridge is completed late in 2021.
Spring 2022
•A ribbon cutting for the bridge, the State of the City and unveiling of the
student art took place on May 15. The student art was budgeted at $8,000
but rose to $9,000. The additional costs were for the rising prices of the
urethane panel material and additional collaboration with students from
Peter Hobart Elementary School and other St. Louis Park public schools.
•To date $9,000 has been spent on public art out of the development fund.
Present considerations:
Condition of current artwork:
Staff visited the bridge site on Friday, March 28th and did take note of the current state
of the existing art. The urethane panel does appear to have some damage that appears
to be both weather/outdoor elements and intentional damage such as past graffiti. One
of the art murals is facing south and in direct sunlight. This art mural appears to have
more fading than the other mural located on the other side of the bridge pillar. Given
the location of this art, these factors will always be at play and will be considered in the
ongoing maintenance of the art this location. Staff will reach out to the artist(s) of the
murals and explore the possibilities of touching up the art and explore possibilities to
improve the long-term vibrancy of the art. The urethane panels could be replaced. Staff
Special study session meeting of May 5, 2025 (Item No. 1)
Title: Proposed study session topic - Dakota Bridge Public Art - Ward 1 Page 4
will compile an estimate of these maintenance costs and determine if the costs could be
absorbed through current budgets or if they would need to be Requested in the next
budget cycle.
2026 budget process and public art funding:
As a part of the 2026 budget process, staff will be proposing a stable mechanism for
funding public art. The council will have an opportunity to choose to allocate funds for
public art projects, such as this one. The intent of this item is to have funding dedicated
to public art opportunities and any potential ongoing maintenance of art that falls
outside of the scope of other economic development, infrastructure projects or already
budgeted for public art. It should be noted that while council provided direction to staff
in 2020 to budget $80,000 for bridge art, this funding was never appropriated due to
the focus on recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic in the next years budget.
Future considerations:
Staff will be bringing forward a policy discussion as a part of the next community
engagement system in Jan/Feb of 2026 for a public art policy. At a high level the public
art policy would provide guidance to the use of the public art fund, a standard selection
process for public art projects and the use of the REI impact analysis tool to ensure that
there is proper distribution of art across the city and historically under-represented
communities are engaged in meaningful ways throughout the process.
Resources required:
Resources required for this item would include the need for the council to allocate
funding to complete this request.
Other dependencies:
Dependencies include:
-The council allocates funding for public art as a part of the 2026 budget process.
-The artist of the current artwork is willing to/agrees to touch up the art.
-The Native community is willing to participate in this project.
Projected timeline:
April – June 2025:
-Provide a written report for the council with background/history information and
proposed next steps.
-Engage with artists of current artwork on Dakota Edgewood bridge, develop
estimate of maintenance costs.
-Implement any possible maintenance of art.
June-December 2025:
