Okay. Well, we'll get this, show on the road here. As soon as we appear up on the see that we're live, we'll be Are you live? It's in your background. Well she did give me the heads up. Okay, we're ready to go. Good evening and, welcome to the City Of Falcon Heights, regular meeting of the City Council on Wednesday, 05/28/2025. We'll call the, meeting to order at 07:01, PM. Roll call. Gustafson here. Leahy? Here. Meyer? Oh, Melke? Here. Wattenberg? Here. Linehan?
Here. Next, would be approval of our agenda. Any changes to tonight's agenda? None, Mayor. Do I hear a motion to approve the agenda? So moved. So moved by Leahy. I need further discussion, hearing none, all those in favor signify by saying aye. Aye. All opposed same sign, motion carries four-zero. The tonight we've got the the honor of a great annual event here is the Neil Quang Youth Citizen Award and we have our recipients here we have
Gary and Chris Kwong here to, whose son it's named for, I'm sorry that happens to me every year. Neil was such a great guy but anyway, so we have, I'll pull it together, so we have a recipient this year who has exemplified everything in what a youth leader would be. I'd call on Gary to come up and present the award we can do it there or over here with a microphone as well but Gary
where it works for you. So each year since Neil died with the city council's approval initially way back in 02/2001, we started the Neil Kwong Citizenship Award. Youth citizenship award. Youth citizenship award. For those from 12 to 19 years old who volunteered in the community. And our current criteria were very simple in terms of they had to be residents of Falcon Heights or volunteer in Falcon Heights. And we try to have it to be more than it has we don't count
if you go to school and you're on a team and you're a captain of the team because it's something you're doing for your own benefit in a sense. And so it has to be something that benefits the whole community. And it doesn't matter if it's just in Falcon Heights, you can do it elsewhere. So if you volunteer for your church as Rain has done, and you work at the State Fairgrounds, which are in Falcon Heights, and and the newspaper and the media have been very good now lately about saying State Fairgrounds and University of Minnesota campus is in Falcon Heights. And so we get community recognition,
and we want to recognize Rain for her activities. And she'll talk about some of those and why she volunteers. And that's the whole thing about caring is important because there's not enough money to pay everybody to care. It doesn't make any sense to do that. And we try to encourage youth, and especially we try to encourage parents to recognize their own children or your neighbor's children in terms of nominating them for the award. And I count it up. In something like nine years, we've not had youth who are honored by their parents to be nominated,
but that's just the way it goes. And you want to nominate people to serve because basically serving means you recognize there's a need and nobody's going you know, some people have asked, do we do we have cash attached? But I've got a boatload of certificates. But that's what you wanna do is you wanna volunteer not because it might pay off literally, but because you think it's worth doing and somebody else needs service. And that's what we want to recognize. So I would like to have you come up. So should I come up? We'll come around to get these photos.
And we always we never practice these. No. We do it. We've been in ceremonies where they practice everything. You know, we gotta practice all this. Yeah. So we I could give you this. Thank you. And the city has a certificate? Mayor? Yep. Here we go. And we'll let the mayor give it to you. Alright. 321. Thank you. Thank you very much. If you can use the microphone and Sure. Talk about or yeah. Because this one kind of we did move one forward, but Okay. It gets better over there. Okay. Well, thank you. I really appreciate this.
Thank you to the Neil Quang family for selecting me for the citizenship award. I've been fortunate to be able to volunteer and to help my community in a variety of ways. Some of my most meaningful memories have been made when helping others and being a part of new experiences. My mission trips, especially the one to Rio Bravo, Mexico, have allowed me to see the world from a different point of view and have inspired me to pursue humanities nursing as my career. I appreciate my parents and my grandparents for helping me learn the meaning and impact of volunteering, which is a value that has become very important in my life.
Thank you to the Neokwang family again and the Falcon Heights City Council for this recognition. I really appreciate it, and I hope I continue to volunteer and to help others just the way people have shown me and show kindness to the world. Thank you. Thank you, Raine. Congratulations. Does Scott wanna add anything to, to things? Scott, Rasti Scott Rasti, I'm Rain's dad, and I nominated her for the award. And, I was just very proud of the effort Rain has made as growing up in Falcon Heights to help others and help her neighbors and
to follow the example that her parents and her grandparents have set and be very willing to volunteer at the food shelf and the Lions Club picking up trash and, volunteering to be an election judge and working in the community. And it's it's a real honor to see her grow and to now leave for college and know that the seed is planted for her to continue that work into the future. So thank you. Thank you, Scott. And thank you Raine and Rasti for being this year's Neil Quang Youth Leadership Award
winner. Thank you. Okay. So thank you very much. Next on our agenda we have a approval of our minutes. Not as exciting as, seeing the youth of today, but we'll go on to, to that. We have our minutes from 04/23/2025, the City Council regular meeting minutes, and the 05/07/2025 City Council workshop minutes. Any changes to the, to the minutes? Do I hear a motion to approve the minutes as,
recorded there? So moved by Wattenberg. All those in favor signify by saying aye. Aye. All those opposed same sign. Motion carries four-zero. We don't have any public hearings tonight. We do have a lengthy consent agenda consisting of 12 items. We have our general disbursements through 05/20/2025, dollars '50 '3 thousand '9 hundred and '20 '8 point '2 '3 payroll through '20 '20 '5 thousand '1 hundred and '4 point '6 '4 dollars wire

Do I hear move to pass the consent agenda? So moved. So moved by Malky. All those in favor signify by saying aye. Aye. All those opposed same sign, four-zero. Highlights from the, consent agenda that, and we want to thank those who served on city commissions, you know, Karen and Pedro and Kurt all have done an outstanding job. They've, gave us between three to five years of, of service as they move on and opening the way and thanking,
Sarah for continuing to, to move to the Community Engagement Commission. It's been it's great to have residents participating, and I want to thank, Pedro, Karen and Kurt for their efforts. The, we do have here, tonight MWF, properties is the is a new development company who's come to Falcon Heights to move, they have purchased or in the agreement of or in the process or whatever of
acquiring the land where the Amber Flats, development was going to be purchasing that from the developers so that they could bring in some affordable senior housing. We have tonight, from there, Monty O'Connell. Lonnie, would you like to come up and introduce yourself to the, to the community and welcome to Falcon Heights. Yeah. Thanks, Mayor. Thanks, Council. My name is Marty O'Connell. I work for as a developer for MWF Properties. If you're not familiar with our group, we are, an apartment developer based out of the Richfield,
Minnesota area. So we're local to the market. And as you had mentioned, Mayor, we're looking to acquire the the surface parking lot that's immediately west of the Amber Flats, building for development purposes into a 10 unit, age restricted, so 55, years or older, apartment building with income and rent restrictions. Just a little bit of background on MWF. We're founded in 1999, and over the course of the last twenty five years, we've built a little over 50 properties, encompassing 3,500 units,
mostly, properties with rent and income restrictions. We have a lot of experience in doing affordable housing. We have our own in house property management company, Blair Property Management, that manages all of our properties. And I won't really get into the nitty gritty details of our proposal tonight, as we'd have to most likely go through a PUD, a new PUD approval process through the city. But, I just wanted to take this time to introduce myself, our company, and, I invite, you know, any of you to reach out at any time to, you know, my phone number or email with any questions that you might have about our company
or the project that we're looking to propose. It's gonna be a long process. You know, we we're facing, you know, a significant financing gap on the project, and so that's why we're looking to apply for Ramsey County affordable funds. And this municipal support letter will go a long way in, kind of strengthening our application. That's actually due tomorrow on that. There's some other financing sources that we may be looking at applying for as well through Met Council and whatnot. But if we have success in securing some of those soft financing sources, then we would look to kinda go through more formal entitlement approvals,
next year, sometime in 2026. So it's gonna be a long process, but, yes, just looking forward to this exciting opportunity. And again, if you have any questions, just invite you to reach out to me at any time. Thank you, Marty. Appreciate it. Thank you, Andrew. Administrator Lanahan? Yes. Thank you, Mary, if I may. So, we are very excited with kind of the potential of MWF properties as kind of the purchaser under contract for the Amber Flats property. So a little bit kind of about the action tonight too. I know the council knows, but more kind of for the general public too.
So as kind of they're working through this process, this is one of our steps to kinda help, show our support for the general concept of the project, but there will be future, you know, approvals that'll have to come through the city council for this project. Overall, though, it's very similar kind of as we've worked through. We're lucky again, MWF Properties has a lot of experience in the market, a lot of success in Minnesota. And so kind of working with them, working through their plans, similar concept to what was proposed before, just generally kind of looking at usually a lot of them are lower, smaller unit size,
but more units. So they'll kinda go through that process, work on some tweaks, but overall, it should be very similar to the proposal the council saw back in 2023. So happy to see again that this is, moving forward and that we have a good partner that would be working with the city. Other highlights there is we're going to have had to make more repairs to the streetlights as wire theft defeated our first attempts to stop those. And anyway, so that's going on. And the races at on the University Golf Course will have better access to cell tower coverage or cell
service during those events on item number 12. Kind of give people an idea of what all went into the consent agenda and our regular business of the council. Anybody else wanna add anything? Okay. Mayor, I could highlight a couple of that too. Another one that we have here too is the SolarAPP plus program. So that's a program that the state of Minnesota is sponsoring. They're hoping that municipalities will adopt this program, allows additional flexibility and funding for future solar grants. So that'll help both residents who are applying for solar,
as well as contractors trying to get, you know, solar panels installed. So that's a good program. And then also too, we have resolution 2,557. What that allows us to do is to reimburse for our future bonds. So on June 11, we're gonna start the process for the bonding for the 2025 PMP and then also the Community Park project. And so with that, because of the size that we're doing two bonds rolled kind of into one, we're gonna be going out for a bond review for a first time in about ten years. We haven't done it for a while. The city is kind of a reminder,
we're currently a AAA bond rated, the highest bond rating a city of our size, can achieve, and it's a unique feature for a city of our size. But what this resolution will do is allows any expenses we have until we get the bonds, which will likely be July, to be able to be expended back to, the bond. So if we're, you know, the contractor, who will start submitting invoices because they've done a lot of work so far, we can then take that and apply it to the bond. So that got gives us a little flexibility. And mayor mentioned also too the repairs, the street lights in University Grove. So wire theft has been hitting them.
Public works went out and applied aluminum welds to them and kind of spot welds, and somebody came through, and cut the welds open and took the wire for a couple of them. So we have even better method where we will be fully welding them shut. So hopefully that kinda helps deter future theft. We're also you know, again, we've reached out with the University Grove neighborhood encouraging people to see something, say something, because it will require a a grinder or a way to get in that'll make a lot of noise. And if they're at all uncertain of who's doing it,
to call the police, and then they can respond and they can confirm. If it's our contractor out there, that'll all be confirmed. And then finally, as May mentioned as well, this usage agreement with Verizon Wireless, this essentially is fairly straightforward, just allowing them to deploy a temporary asset, which tech term for a little mini cell tower, for the event, help provide better coverage, provides the city $1,000 a year in revenue in return for the next five years. The next, we'll move on to policy. We our first one is approval of Resolution two thousand five hundred and 60,
awarding the contract for the Falcon Heights Community Park improvement project to New Look Contracting, Inc. For $941,413 Administrator Linehan? Yeah. Thank you, mayor and council. So, if we recall back in on April 23, council authorized, staff and also our consultant, WSB, to authorize bids, and release the bids on April 23. Bids were posted in a state bond or state bidding website. We got, in total, five responses from qualified contractors.
Per Minnesota statute, we go with the lowest bidder. The lowest bidder in this contract was New Look Contracting of Rogers, Minnesota. It's a local company. They were the lowest of the base bid and also the alternates as well. The base bid for this project basically includes everything over at community park that we haven't awarded so far. So it doesn't include the playground, it doesn't include, purchasing the building materials for the shelter, and it doesn't include the splash pad, which were all kind of awarded separately. Mhmm. But this is inclusive of everything else. So this will be all of the landscaping,
all of the new parking lot, all the, you know, site features, electrical, new sanitary sewer hookups, kind of everything involved in the new park project, lots of new sidewalks, etcetera. So kind of fully encompassed. It also includes 250,000 for construction of the new park shelter. So, it gets us pretty far along here. The other good news too is this contractor has experience. They've worked with WSB before. They recently did a big project in Maple Grove in 2024, of kind of a similar size and scope. So we're excited to work with New Look,
and we'll be meeting with them in the next two weeks or so after contracts are signed and, start talking timelines and demolition of the park building and starting building our new park. Will the company that the manufacturer of the shelter oversee the assembly construction of the shelter? Yes. So one of the contingencies in the contract was that it had to be a Cedar Forest authorized company to build it. Many of them would then choose Cedar Forest as the subcontractor of that, and from my understanding,
Cedar Forest will be the subcontractor. Okay. Thank you. So kind of a wonky way, but, you know, keeping it fair so that somebody could submit a lower bid and build it themselves. But it sounds like it will be Cedar Forest building the actual building. Great. Thanks. Good. This park is it's going to actually happen. This is great. So other comments from Well, I was just I drive by it every day and I keep thinking pretty soon, pretty soon there's going to be a demo and then rebuild. So keep an eye on it. Yep. Yeah. I keep hoping. It it was busy on
Monday. I forget what day I went by anyway and lots of people over at the park. Busy right now. Busy right now? Yes. Yes. Which is really, it's good to see it. So you want an asset used. Further discussion. Do we have a motion to, sign the contractor with or sign a contract with Little Bitter New Look Contracting for an amount not to exceed $941,413 So moved. So moved by Melky. Further discussion? Hearing none,
all those in favor of approval of Resolution 2,560, Park Project Bid Award, signify by saying aye. Aye. All those opposed, same sign. Motion carries four-zero. Next, we have for policy, we have approval of ordinance 2,503, updating chapter 14 of the city code for pedicab licensing and, making adjustments to our pedicab ordinance prior to the, state fair season. Administrator Linehan. Yeah. Thank you,
mayor and council. So last year, the state fair task force had recommended, that we needed some sort of licensing of the pedicabs. So pedicabs, for those who aren't familiar, are kind of the the bike taxis that pick people up during the state fair. We had generally had started to hear more and more concerns about just unsafe practices, that they were, you know, operating ten, fifteen people per bike, using motorized vehicles that wouldn't be authorized, and just kind of the general that we had no control over who was there or any type of action because, essentially, you can bike and generally do what you want as long as you're following Minnesota
state law. So we had adopted the pedicab ordinance, based largely off of the other two neighboring cities that or nearby cities that have pedicab ordinances, Saint Paul and Minneapolis. And one of the caveats that we had in the ordinance is that if they've passed inspections through those cities and have been licensed, that kind of allows them to be licensed here locally in Falcon Heights. And so all of our specs were nearly identical to those cities. And kind of not long after the state fair, Minneapolis had adopted a a modified ordinance.
They changed some of the specs. And as we were going through the first year, actually licensing these, and I was out there looking at the bottom of pedicabs, checking their engine sizes, and, making sure their benches were correct. Minneapolis had kinda updated something that we saw, is that the size that we had put in the original ordinance didn't match what a lot of manufacturers make for these. And then our we were also a little bit too restrictive for how many people could sit per bench. And so this new modified ordinance just kind of catches us up to Minneapolis' standards,
and allows kind of a little bit more flexibility. So we gave administrative approval last year for some of these that were, you know, just outside of the specs, but this will allow us to be able to license and make sure that we're following best practices. Cool. And then last year, it seemed to work that the pedicab operators and companies were providing a good service and were respectful of the community and everything? Yeah. Generally. So a lot of the pedicab operators kind of police the ordinance as well. So they kind of knew who and they already knew everybody,
so they all know each other. A lot of the companies, they they're either active locally or what they do is they travel from festival to festival around the country, so they get to know a lot of their competitors. But they work together because there's enough business for everybody. And so they would report if there was one without a license or if there was unsafe practices. So we took a lot of the feedback from them too and kind of developed this a little bit further. So I'd say yes, there's generally good compliance. We noticed that, it was good to do this practice. And then, I was trying to recall if last year you had several people submit their license
from the other two cities pretty close to the start of the State Fair and During. So sad. A lot of it was during the state fair. Yes. And so a lot of it kinda came because, again, we try to get the word out there, major operators, others. You know, working with probably the largest operator at the for the fair, kind of helped get some of that. But there was these other independent operators who free spirits who, don't have email and, you know, we kinda had to they so what happened is they get either told by a police officer or by the other operators,
you need to get a license, go to City Hall. Sure. And so they'd bike up to City Hall, and we would inspect on-site. Okay. So but one of the nice things too, couple other perks of this is kinda like, why are we doing this? Insurance was one of the biggest things, so they have to be bonded. They have to have the insurance. You know, it's one of those things you kinda take for granted. If you hop on a bike and you're gonna ride, you kind of assume that generally it's safe and, you know, that you're riding with somebody who's gonna follow rules of the road and doesn't have a lengthy, history of traffic violations. We did deny one license last year to an operator based on their driving background,
did not meet our code standards. And so those are one of the examples of how we think it does benefit the safety of residents and visitors. Anything else? We have a motion to approve Ordinance 2,503, updating Chapter 14 of the City Code outlining the pedicab licensing as well as approval of summary Ordinance 2,503 to be published, notifying the public of the changes. So moved by Wassenberg. Further discussion? Hearing none, all those in favor, signify by saying aye. Aye. All those opposed, same sign.
Motion carries four-zero. Next are information and announcements. The, I forget which way we're going. Paula. Sure. 10 of the nine North Board Meeting, The main important thing for our city is the contract the franchise contract with Comcast, has been extended, so that's good news. And I attended the local government meeting hosted by the school district. One of the things they shared is that they are looking at doing, a vote on a referendum this fall that looking at, potentially a 5% levy increase to covering technology and security and then State Fair Task
Force. Matt just continued to work on program elements and job description. And other than that, go Wolves. Yes. Watching that time. Let's watch that time. It's kickoff here, so we should wrap this up. Okay. I have no updates or information at this time. Okay. Council Member Wassenberg? I attended the Northeast Houston Family Services Board meeting. So they reported that their leadership luncheon, which a number of us attended, brought in 6,000 which was more than expected and more than in previous years.
So that was great. And then other things that are afoot there, they are driving towards long term financial stability and an endowment from the potential sale of the building that they now occupy with a number of tenants, including Mounds View Public Schools, who are there in negotiations with Mounds View Public Schools for purchase of the building and would remain tenants in the building. And nothing would really change but in that respect of where they are, but, it would actually give them a lot more flexibility in financial planning and an active endowment.
So all good things for NYFS. And as Administrator Linehan noted, our contractor, Too Much Roadways, is actually doing a bunch of work there, tooling up and down our street, here on California Avenue in North Home. And it looks frightfully close like they might be lying down lying down asphalt pretty soon. They're out there with the graders yesterday and lots of beeping, beeping, beeping, but, they're really doing a bang up job and rapidly when it's not raining. So that's all I have to say for tonight. Yep. I took a a driving tour of, Northholme and, Falcon Woods on sun on Monday,
just to, kinda see what was going on. And And it's amazing work. They're doing a lot of stuff, and it looks like a lot of storm sewer work for in the in Falcon Woods that probably has in talking to neighbors through the years well, should be should solve some of those issues and get that. It was kind of fun to drive through. It was roads torn up. It's amazing. And then North Home was looking like they're ready
to go, getting close. So kudos to this year's pavement management project. Just one thing to add too, we had pretty good attendance considering the weather at spring together. Oh, yes. And a few brave people ate ice cream. I chose not to. I did the same. I was trying to remember if we met after our spring together. It's like, did we meet? All everything's running together for me right now, so I didn't give an update. Yeah. That that was a that was a nice event. It was a lot of fun. Even with the, with the weather,
it was great to see people turn out for that and to begin to go. Congratulations to the Minnesota Frost for second consecutive Walter Cup victory on Monday. So that was cool, good to see. And kudos to staff for just continuing to do good work from what I hear from residents who have had issues and are getting them resolved. So thank you, staff for that. And, Administrator Linehan, what else is going on in the city that we should raise attention to? Sure. Thank you, Mayor and Council.
So you guys did a great job covering a lot of the hot issues that we're working on. The PNP is underway. It's moving quickly, as council member Wasserburger had mentioned. Wasserburger. I don't know. Wasserburger? And for our our listeners, it's pavement Yeah. 2025 pavement management program. So he does a biannual program every we're always on kind of odd years doing construction. So one of the things with that is access is pretty limited in Falcon Woods, just based on, configuration. So we've worked with Blaze Credit Union,
secured some parking there for residents. So residents are able to come pick up permits from city hall to park there. We've also bagged the signs on prior. And I was gonna mention earlier, if you saw a lot of, traffic at Community Park, a lot of that is also residents of Falcon Woods. Okay. That makes sense. But some of it is also soccer too. So we have soccer actively going on. So we've been working with residents on that. Another one people might notice, there are a lot of recycling bins over at Blaze Credit Union in their back lot. At the same time that we're having this parking, the city of Roseville has reached an agreement with Blaze to allow them to be
their storage site for the transfer of their, recycling bins. So Roseville has a new recycling contractor for 2025. As part of it, they elected to purchase their own bins that are kinda Roseville branded. They needed a place to drop them off. They decided Blaze would be the place. We've, you know, kinda joked internally. I thought Roseville had lots of big parking lots, but this is the one they chose. So kind of that if people see that, that's what's going on there. So and then kinda finally, the police had an incident, yesterday, in the Northeast quadrant. They posted on social media,
and we'll include it kinda more information with our newsletter. Essentially, a high speed chase. Vehicle took off into the neighborhood and then went off. The the suspect kinda fled on foot. They did a perimeter search, brought in the canine through Ramsey County Sheriff's Office. They didn't find the individual, but they didn't see a threat that, essentially, the person was just got out of there somehow. So, so they put out that notice, but we know some residents were concerned about that. And then, yes, ice cream social, or spring together gave out a hundred and 2 ice cream cream tickets, which for how cold it was,
was pretty solid. Usually, we're about 300 or so. So the weather was quite poor, though. But it was a fun time for all. Yeah. Cool. Any other announcements? We're good there. Now it's time for Community Forum. If somebody would like to address the council for three minutes, items brought before the council can be referred for consideration or give us things to think about. If you'd like to participate in that, I'd encourage you to come forward and say anything if you'd like. Okay. Okay. The, so with the Community Forum,
then we'll close Community Forum, not seen active. Wait. Here's oh, maybe we do. All right. Come on up. So I guess my question would be, can you tell us your name? Okay. And street you live on? University Avenue. Okay. So my question would be, what type of things are you guys doing here that would, like, connect to, like, me or like, like, citizens in, like, the city? Or like that's mostly what my question is. Sorry if I worded that weirdly. What type of community engagement items do we have for youth,
for young adults? Or no, just like people in the city in general, I guess. Or people in general? Yes. Well, we have our different community events. We have open council meetings. We have staff that talk to and address concerns from folks. We have commissions that look for initiatives on ways to get better outreach on what we're doing in the community. We occasionally conduct surveys. And we love having young people involved in our community commissions. We have a few different ones that they can participate in if they have the
capacity of time to do that. And what's the I can't remember the youngest age for the one is 16? 16, yes. Yes, it will be, Will be, currently, 15. And along with our different park activities that we have. And hopefully, we'll have more things for teenagers and young adults as well in our small city. But we're always open to hear ideas of things that we can do within our city. And when different opportunities come up, we all rally together from the different parts of our city. And, with our different events that we have,
including our restoration in Unity Day, which is Ramsey County wide. So that's July 6 and July 7. Those that is follows on the time that we lost Philando Castile on Larpenter Avenue in on 07/06/2016. So the '6 is the day where we encourage people to get to know their neighbor or restore a relationship or get to know someone different than them. And then the next day is Unity Day,
where we encourage people to come together. We have a Publix barbecue here that's pretty much led by the Castile family, and our city participates. And it simply says that we are doing the work to walk examples. And all of our city commissions are open to And all of our city commissions are open to residents to weigh in on things from planning, community engagement, our environment commission, our parks and rec commission, and those are other spots where we try to engage the public and residents of the city. Okay. Thank you so much for your time. You're welcome.
Thanks for coming up and talking. Appreciate it. Everyone else? Okay. Well, thank you. We got Community Forum going. Thank you very much. And on that, our next item on the agenda, do we have anything more? No, ma'am. All right. I'll have a motion for adjournment. So moved. So moved by Leahy. I'd like to thank everybody for coming out tonight and doing that. All those in favor for adjournment, signify by saying aye. Aye. All those opposed, same sign. Motion carries four-zero. Thank you very
