Standing up to property tax hikes
Anthony Lonetree, Star Tribune
December 12, 2005
Property tax hearings, seemingly ideal for torch -and -pitchfork -like rushes on City Hall, often are quiet affairs. Citizens just can't make a
difference, say many who don't show up.
Tell that to the people of Greenfield, a small community in western Hennepin County.
Warned of a potential 85 percent increase in the city's share of the property tax bill, more than 200 angry residents turned out Dec. 5 for the
annual Truth in Taxation hearing and secured from City Council members a pledge to trim the increase to only a 10 percent jump.
Such shows of strength have been isolated, but this year's tax season is energizing taxpayers to levels rarely seen in recent years:
- Asked after last week's hearing what she expected the Greenfield City Council to do, Lynda Spencer, 58, who had willed herself to testify,
primarily out of concern she couldn't keep her emotions in check, said coolly: "It better be what I think it should be."
- In Eden Prairie, Dick Proops, 80, a retired business executive, called City Hall with questions about a parks plan he said looked "kind of
fat," and then joined a newly formed Eden Prairie Taxpayers Alliance, eventually spending about 15 hours combing through the city's
budget looking for potential spending cuts.
- Despite failing in its effort to force the city of Mounds View to renegotiate a recent land sale to Medtronic, a Mounds View taxpayers
group has vowed to continue monitoring that community's fiscal activities.
- The ,Richfield Taxpayers Alliance, in the works for weeks, hopes to finish a mission statement for what co-founder Elizabeth Arnold said
will be a group committed to sharing city fiscal information objectively. Next year, the Taxpayers League of Minnesota hopes to tap into
that tax activism and take it statewide by reviving a proposal championed by Gov. Tim Pawlenty. The proposal would require taxpayer
satisfaction surveys that could trigger citizen votes on increases deemed to be too high.
The survey proposal failed to win legislative approval this year, but with double-digit percentage property tax increases expected to hit
homes statewide in 2006, "we certainly have a teachable moment," League President David Strom said.
How real a voice?
The Truth in Taxation process is designed to give citizens a say in tax matters. But Strom argues the timing makes it difficult to hold elected
officials accountable.
The hearings are held late in the year, after preliminary budgets have been set, he said. In addition, with final votes on city, county and
school district budgets being made in December, local officials now act free of election -year pressures.
The Taxpayers League's proposal calls for taxpayer satisfaction surveys to be included with November Truth in Taxation statements. If 20
percent or more of respondents aren't satisfied with a tax plan, a local referendum would be held, most likely in January.
Gary Carlson, legislative director for the League of Minnesota Cities, said that variations of the idea have been floated for years, and that
his group has opposed them for both procedural and philosophical reasons.
Any referendums, he said, would come after the budget year has begun, meaning local governments likely would have to set two budgets
each year -- one they believe they need and one they'd have to fall back on. Also, he said, the survey proposal runs counter to the principle
of representative democracy because it allows citizens to potentially trump decisions their council members and others were elected to
make.
If the issue resurfaces at the Capitol next year, Carlson said, and he expects it will, city council members across the state will be prepared to
explain and defend their increases. After all, he said, large tax increases are "not something that people are chomping at the bit to do."
Local fire
In St. Cloud, Mayor Dave Kleis, a former state senator, said last week he is "open to the idea" of taxpayer surveys.
/-b
Recently, he proposed budget -cutting moves to limit the city's levy increase to tax -capacity growth and inflation. It was a promise he made
during his campaign, he said, after hearing tax concerns while going door-to-door and at townhall meetings.
In Greenfield, the call to limit the "variable" part of the city's levy to a 10 percent increase was made by a citizen, Tim Stahl, 37, who told
council members that he was prepared to circulate a petition to gain support from half of the community's 3,050 residents.
Mayor Larry Plack countered that the body was there to represent the people, and no petition was necessary.
The next night, however, the council failed to reach agreement on a final budget plan. They are continuing deliberations on how to limit the
increase to 10 percent.
For now, Stahl, whose work has involved the launching of online games (www..slingd,ot.com), said he'll be monitoring the council's actions:
"I trust the guy who says he's going to do what he's going to do."
But as an engaged citizen, he added, he is ready to get those petitions out if he has to.

Cable -access news gets serious, gets big ratings
Darlene Prois, Star Tribune
December 12, 2005
Mary Sather, of Crystal, is a Channel 12 junkie. Each of the family's five television sets is tuned to the Northwest Community Cable station
so she won't miss a minute.
Sather, a 47 -year-old stay-at-home mom, even embarrassed 12 -year-old daughter Sarah earlier this year, chasing Channel 12 reporter Matt
Bradley in her car to show him the "I Watch 12" sign on her window.
"It's just so informative that I can't stop watching it," Sather said.
Not every viewer is as dedicated as Sather, but the cable station's intense local focus and its professionally produced daily newscasts -- with
on -air talent recruited from network stations around the region -- are paying off. Viewership in its nine -city broadcast area is six times
higher than the average for other metro -area community cable stations. Surveys show that nearly half of the 70,000 households served by
the station are frequent or occasional viewers.
"Northwest's levels of cable viewership are consistently the highest in the metro area," said Bill Morris, president of Decision Resources
Inc., a company that does surveys for 100 Minnesota communities. "The norm is 8 percent. In some cities, it's so low that it seems not even
the mayor's spouse is watching."
Channel 12 is the gold standard for community television, Morris said.
Decision Resources surveys invariably link strong communication systems with higher quality -of -life ratings. The station is one of a very
few that has bucked a pervasive downward trend in viewership over the past decade, Morris said.
That hasn't gone unnoticed by the cities that contribute to its $3 million budget.
"I think it provides a wonderful service to this entire northwest area," said Al Madsen, city manager of Maple Grove. "I'm not trying to take
away from the WCCOs and KARE-1 is of the world, but they have a state to cover. Channel 12 can focus on the events happening in the
nine -city area, and we have a lot happening."
Daily focus on broadcast area
The station's daily 20 -minute newscast features only stories from its broadcast area: Brooklyn Center, Brooklyn Park, Crystal, Golden
Valley, Maple Grove, New Hope, Osseo, Plymouth and Robbinsdale. The channel is part of local Comcast cable offerings.
The newscast is repeated several times each evening, with a wrap-up on weekends.
Popular weekly programs include "Sports Jam," a 30 -minute prep sports show; a business and events show called "Community Journal";
and "Northwest Cities," an in-depth feature program that highlights each member city on a rotating basis.
"We don't do stories that don't have an impact on our area," said Greg Moore, executive director of the Northwest Suburbs Cable
Communications Commission, which oversees the channel's operations and has representatives from the cities served.
"I am unaware of any other community cable station that functions like us anywhere in the United States."
The station won a pair of regional Emmy Awards in 2001. Its news staff is led by news director and anchor Mike Johnson, 49, a former
anchor at WMTV in Madison, Wis. The Minnesota native also anchored the Hubbard news channel for DIRECTV in its 1990s heyday.
A newscast features 10 to 12 stories, from traffic news to in-depth features.
Reporter and anchor Alexandra Renslo, 30, arrived in July after six years as an anchor for WKBT in La Crosse, Wis. On a typical day
recently, she worked on two stories: one about a huge increase in English-language learners in the Robbinsdale School District and another
about a city of Brooklyn Park wellness program.
"The first story shows a broader trend in our community that has a lot of different effects," Renslo said. "In the other, the story within the
story is that each department is wearing pedometers, and they're having a competition. It's the kind of story that's interesting to everybody,
)I
the type that relates us to each other as human beings. It makes you proud of where you live."
A history of support
The station's success is the result of more than two decades of community leadership, said Moore, who became executive director of the
cable commission in 1983.
In the early years of cable franchising, it became apparent that companies weren't terribly interested in community programming, he said.
"What struck me about the commissioners here was the very strong desire that local programming would be part of cable service," he said.
By 1985, Northwest was the first metro cable commission to wrest responsibility for local programming away from the cable company. The
operating budget, which comes from franchise and community television fees paid by cable subscribers, funds Channel 12 programming
plus additional public access and government channels.
A local news program was a high priority from the beginning.
"There was the feeling that the major media weren't serving suburbs," Moore said. "We wanted the news to function here like the news
functions everywhere, with the major caveat that the news would be local."
The cities served by the channel could take the money generated by cable subscriber fees -- about $2.2 million -- and use it for other
purposes, Moore said. But they devote the entire sum to Channel 12, cable access and government programming.
Journalists are expected to remain objective in their reporting.
"There has been very strong sense that it should be a true news station, with the journalists not beholden to the cities," said Ann Norris,
Crystal city manager.
To Morris, the station's viewership numbers attest to its success.
"It's not up there with the ESPNs of the world," he said. "But it holds its own."

Subject: I-394 MnPASS powerpoint presentation.
Members:
Nick Thompson, MnPASS project manager for MN/DOT, presented a very interesting status
report on the I-394 MnPASS toll lanes at yesterday's TAB Policy Committee meeting. Several
members asked for a copy of his presentation and we were able to make a copy from his laptop.
Attached are the powerpoint slides from his presentation. The copy isn't perfect. Some of the
slides are out of proportion and the video clips will not run, but all the information he presented
is there.
A quick summary of the highlights:
* About 9,000 transponders have been leased and between 50 to 100 more are leased
each week.
* 192 different cites are listed as the account address for people leasing the transponders.
* Operating costs are about $22,000 per week and revenue is about $16,000 per week.
* The average charge paid by people using the MnPASS lanes is $0.67.
* MN/DOT is pleased with the traffic volume using the toll lanes, but the revenue is
below their projections.
* Adding the WB auxilliary lane between TH 100 and TH 169 and going to peak period
operation relieved the bottleneck.
* Enforcement is present during hours of operation and compliance is very high.
* MN/PASS has cut the number of hours of congestion in the general purpose lanes in
half.
* A full years worth of data will be collected by February of next year.
Since this is project is unique to the Twin Cities, I thought the whole Board would be interested.

Access Points
• Upside
— They work!
• Very high compliance
— No apparent safety issues (data lags 6 months)
• Appears to have reduced number of speeders
— Reduces tolling infrastructure requirements
• Downside
— Prevents access to HOT lane for some trips
— Reduces flow in HOT lane in off peak
• Increases density in adjacent GP lane
— Reduces ability to pass slower vehicles

Dear Ms. Johnson,
Thank you for giving the residents the opportunity to provide input during this planning
process. Our homes are clearly important to us and this process of planning land use has
a significant impact. We would like to review specifics of the process to date, provide a
suggestion for implementing one of the land use goals and finally a recommendation for
planning area 1.
This process began, for the residents, through informal meetings on September 15`h and
20th , and then more formally on October 24h when we completed the surveys. A
summary of the survey results for planning area 1 is as follows:

These percentages show strong solidarity in the planning area since there were between
22 and 29 possible responses per question.
Of the six responses related to planning area 1, four responses reflect the residents' desire
to keep the areas in its current state, one response reflects the impact growth has had on
our area (traffic) and one response to slow the growth rate. This is an accurate
representation of our area's position in this matter. Although not all residents were
present, there are many discussions within pockets of neighbors, and the mix is similar to
those that attended.
J�
At the November 30`h meeting, the City Wide Land Use Goals & Policies were reviewed.
Goal 1 (Land Use) f. states "Protect the existing rural character of the land not planned
for urban development before 2020 (2030)." This is a commendable goal of the city, but
it appears there may need to be additional steps taken by the city to enforce this. One
suggestion is to establish the comprehensive plan with 10 year increments of growth.
Sewer and water systems will be constructed to reflect the plan in ten year increments.
As time progresses, the planning department would not allow development outside this
area, unless there was documented proof near the end of the 10 years (year 9 and 10) that
we would not meet our growth required by the met council.
Specifically for planning area 1, our recommendation is to keep the area rural until the
2020-2030 planning interval. When development does occur we hope it is low density
(1-2 houses per area) and the natural features of the area are safeguarded. This will meet
the desires of the majority of the residents in the survey, and give the city time to address
the worsening traffic congestion on Vicksburg Lane, County Road 47 and the 494 under
pass on Schmidt Lake Road. Waiting until 2020 will allow the city's infrastructure to
absorb the impact of the Taryn Hills project in planning area 1 also. As a part of this
recommendation it is hoped measures will be put in place ensuring no development is
allowed before then. It is misleading to state that development will not occur until
residents want it. The developers have significant resources available to push
development through. They do not take `no' for an answer. That is why land prices are
so high, residents are given higher and higher offers on their land until they finally agree.
In conclusion, we want to again thank the city council and planning department for
considering the resident's inputs in this matter. Please consider allowing planning area 1
to remain as is until the 2020 to 2030 horizon. During that time we recommend low
density housing that preserves the natural features of the area. Additionally, we hope
that steps are taken to control development through out the city, to only those areas that
you have identified through this process.
Sincerely,
J,-. ,.&.

• Billboards: Karla welcomed Sonja Carlson as the newest member of the Membership Committee and
noted that Sonja with her marketing background will be a great addition. Sonja will be working with Pat
Hackman on checking the logistics of renting billboard space along TH 55.
• Membership Kit: Karla encouraged each member to meet with potential members and use the membership
kits that were handed out at a previous Coalition meeting. If anyone needs a membership kit they should
contact Brad Larson. Karla noted that Klein Bank has challenged the other banks in Buffalo to join the
Coalition and Klein will match the other banks membership dues. Bank membership will be the main
emphasis of the Committee this Fall and then Insurance companies.
Membership: It was noted that Chatham Township would not be renewing their membership in the
Coalition. They only have a very small portion of TH55 in their township. They along with Albion
Township are the only two governmental entities that are not members.
5. Financial Report: Wayne Fingalson handed out the Financial Report as of October 17, 2005. He noted the
current fund balance of $10,670.87 with 2005 dues income of $11,150, federal reimbursements of expenses of
$34,586.69 and expenses of $39,790.81. The Financial Report was revamped per direction of the Coalition to
just show Beginning of the Year Start Balance and current year Revenue and Expenses. On a motion by
Karla Heeter and second by Elizabeth Weir, the Financial Report was accepted.
6. Technical Advisory Committee/MnDOT Report: Brad Larson, Wayne Fingalson and Anne Hurlburt
updated the members on the TAC meetings and recommendations to the Coalition.
• Review of MnDOT Metro's Response to Coalition Comments on the TSP: The Coalition went through
the MnDOT responses to each Coalition comment on the Metro's Transportation System Plan. It was noted
that those general comments on the plan were also made by other agencies and communities and MnDOT's
response were the same for all. As to the specific comments on TH 55, MnDOT noted they would be
reviewing the functional classification system in the metro area. This is consistent with Met Council's
response on their TPP. Metro responded that there is not a need for 4 lanes identified in their performance
measures for TH 55 west of Arrowhead Drive. John Griffith clarified that there is a 4 lane need for this
segment however on the Safety category. Penny Steele asked how the needs are determined. The response
is that they are "formula -based" and not subjective.
• Federal Funding Status: The handout in the packet showed that MnDOT will be funding the Cultural
Resource Study, Contaminated Properties Study, Wright County Photogrammatic Mapping, TH 55 Future
Traffic Demand Study and possibly the District 3 EA. Chad Hausmann said that for MnDOT to use federal
funds for the D3 EA the Minnesota Legislature must approve. To not delay use of the FY03 federal funds, if
D3 does get approval, they would request the federal funds from the $4 Million authorization and not the
FY03. Therefore, the Coalition has $954,039 to allocate.
• Federal Funding Distribution Recommendations: The Coalition reviewed the "Guiding Principles for the
Distribution of Federal Funds" and the "Criteria/Procedure for Prioritizing Projects" recommended by the
TAC. It was noted that the Guiding Principles were from the TH 55 Future Traffic Demand Study which
was presented and approved by the Coalition and MnDOT earlier this year. The TAC only expanded on
some of the principles in the Study for better clarification. The Coalition then reviewed the "Comparison of
Measurable Criteria" and the recommendation that from these comparisons --A distribution of approximately
50/50 between Wright and Hennepin County projects during the life of the federal SAFETEA-LU
authorization bill (2005-2009) be made. On a motion by Marvin Johnson and a second by Penny Steele the

recommendations were approved. Penny and other members of the Coalition expressed their thanks to the
TAC for the work involved in developing these recommendations.
• TH 55 Project Recommendations: One project in Hennepin County and two projects in Wright County are
recommended to the members for federal funds out of the remaining FY03 funds. The Coalition reviewed
the Coalition's "Federal Funding Request Form" on each of the recommended projects. A brief description
of the projects are:
Fernbrook Lane in Plymouth—The City of Plymouth currently has federal HES authorized for 2007 for
this location. Project involves adding additional turn lanes and access control. The TAC recommendation
is that $475,000 in FY03 federal funds be allocated to this project for Preliminary Engineering and Right -
of -Way acquisition.
CR 134 (Calder Ave) in Buffalo ---The improvement is to slightly realign CR 134 and signalized its
intersection with TH 55. This is especially timely given that Menards is building on CR 134 not too far
from the intersection. Menard's has committed $200,000 toward transportation improvements including a
traffic signal at CR 134 and TH 55. The TAC recommendation is that up to $75,000 in federal funds be
allocated for Preliminary Engineering and Right -of -Way acquisition at the intersection and on TH 55.
CR 115/Gabler in Rockford -- The project would include the realignment of CR 115 on the south and
Gabler Avenue on the north to align them across from each other. This would eliminate the two poorly
aligned t -intersections. The developers on both the north and south sides of TH 55 are willing to
participate in the majority of the cost which is estimated at $2.2 Million plus right-of-way. If federal
funding is approved for the right-of-way acquisition of property not owned by the developers, the City and
developers would do the federal environmental documentation. Currently the south development has a
final plat and the north development has preliminary plat approval. The estimated right-of-way cost is at
least $400,000. The TAC recommends that $400,000 in FY03 federal funds be approved for this project.
CSAH 12, 0.3 miles west of Buffalo ---Intersection improvements, traffic signal and turn lanes will be
needed with the building of a school near the intersection. The school is scheduled to open in 2006. It
was noted that this project is a "clean" project as no additional right-of-way is required and the project
could be ready very soon. While this project will not need any federal funding for right-of-way, it is
recommended by the TAC that the Coalition fully support this project also.
On a motion by Marvin Johnson and second by Penny Steele, the Coalition approved the TAC
recommendations for allocating the FY03 federal funds. John Griffith reminded the Coalition and the project
sponsors that the Environmental Documentation must clearly include that right-of-way acquisition is part of
the project and cover all environmental documentation concerning the right-of-way to be acquired.
The Coalition directed that for future projects to use the federal funding from the $4 Million authorization,
each Joint Power Member be contacted so see if they may have a project that could be eligible for federal
funds.
• TH 55 EA/EAW Status: John Griffith noted that the Hennepin County has submitted a letter to MnDOT
requesting federal funds from the 2003 Appropriation be encumbered for the EA from I494 to Rockford in
the amount of $500,000. If approved, this would secure the federal funding. John submitted on Thursday
the internal MnDOT Project Memo providing justification for the use of federal funds requested in

Hennepin County's letter. In addition John plans to have the draft RFP to Hennepin County next week so
they can review.
7. Legislative Updates
• Federal: The Transportation Appropriations bill for FY06 was not approved by Congress by the end of the
federal fiscal year (September 30th), nor were most of the other federal appropriations bills. Therefore,
Congress has passed a continuing resolution to fund the federal government until November 19, 2005. Once
the Transportation Appropriations bill is approved we will be able to see how much of the $4 Million is
available to the Coalition in FY06.
It was also noted that the initial interpretation of what the $4 Million can be used for is that it can only be
used for Preliminary Engineering and Right -of -Way acquisition and not for safety improvements. Brad has
discussed this with Mark Mutuska of Congressman Kennedy's office and Congressman Kennedy and Mark
say that the intent of the funding was that it could also be used for safety improvements per the Coalition's
request to the Congressman that specifically included safety improvements in the request. Mark suggested
that a discussion with MnDOT and FHWA hopefully can resolve this without having to go through a
Technical Corrections bill.
• State: It does not appear likely that there will be a Special Session and even more unlikely that if a Special
Session is called that Transportation funding would be part of the agenda. Next year the voters will have a
Constitutional Amendment for dedicating all of the MVET funds to transportation on the ballot. To pass it
requires a majority vote of all voters, even if they do not vote either way on the ballot. Not voting on this
constitutes a NO vote. There will be a campaign to educate the voters on the need to pass this amendment.
The Coalition will be asked to help in this campaign.
8. Establish next full membership meeting date and time: The next meeting is Friday, December 16, 2005 at
9:30 a.m. at the Hennepin County Public Works Facility, Training Room
9. Other Business: Penny Steele recommended that the TAC review with Congressman Kennedy's staff the
approach the Coalition is planning to spend approximately 50% of the federal funds on safety improvement
construction projects and 50% on right-of-way to make sure they are comfortable with this approach. The
Coalition has been unique in its plan for right-of-way preservation with federal funds and we want to maintain
that uniqueness.
10. Adjourn: The meeting adjourned at 10:43 a.m.
