Staff in all divisions of the Community Development Department assisted in completing the most recent survey. This is the first year the Metropolitan Council used the information obtained through the surveys to assign each community a housing performance score. Metropolitan Council will use this score as they evaluate and rank any discretionary funding request or application. The attached sheets show the criteria used to determine the housing performance score, the City of Plymouth's housing performance score, and the housing performance scores of all metropolitan communities. The City of Plymouth received a score of 60 out of a maximum 100 points. Plymouth ranks 28th (tied with Oak Park Heights, White Bear Lake, and Brooklyn Center) among the 185 communities and 12th among the 44 communities in Hennepin County. The City scored the maximum points in areas of fiscal tools and initiative (46), zoning ordinance policies (#10), and recent affordable housing development approvals (#11, which included The Reserve). The City scored low in areas of affordable housing stock (#1, 2, and 4), local regulation and development requirement initiatives (1'77), and average density (#9). The City's housing performance score of 60 will act a base line for future year comparisons. The City may want to look at areas where the City did not receive the full points and determine if there is a wav to increase its score in the future, where possible, so we can be more competitive in funding applications submitted to Metropolitan Council. For example, the City scored 6 out of 15 points on "Initiatives regarding local regulation and development requirements". If the City were interested in scoring 'higher in this area, it would need to adopt a density bonus system_ or facilitate specific affordable housing developments through rezoning and variances or modifying public services standards and requirements. Attachment: Metropolitan Council's Housing Performance Scores — 2001 n: community de%,elopment\housing\hra\staffrep,cc'2001\cc01101 Shousingperform.doc GUIDELINES FOR PRIORITY FUNDING FOR HOUSING PERFORMANCE The Metropolitan Council's Regional Blueprint includes policy that supports the broadened opportunity for affordable and life -cycle housing throughout the region. As one of the actions it will take to support such housing opportunities, the Blueprint says the- Council will "give priority for regional infrastructure investments or exenditures of public dollars to communities that have implemented plans to provide their share of the region's low- and moderate -income and life -cycle housing opportunities." The following criteria and their relative weight will be used to annually determine a score — 0 to 100 points — and rank for cities and counties in the region to be used in the evaluation and prioritization of applications for funding by the Council. County scores will be used in the evaluation of county applications for funding; city scores will be used for city applications. Joint applications for discretionary funding will be weighted pursuant to the applicable combination of counties, cities, or both counties and cities. Examples of current funding decisions that will be affected include but not be limited to those for community development — the LCA Fund and Smart Growth initiatives, transportation — TEA-? 1, the environment — MetroEnvironment Partnership grants, and other investments and programs such as those for parks and open space. The amount. of emphasis or weight given to the housing performance score or rank- in ankin the evaluation of applications for various funding pro?rams will be at the discretion of the N-ietronolitan Council at the tinge it sol;clt-, ;?pplirnfln„ : {gin•• of these discretionary• funding activities. An-,- changes to tilt performance criteria tlhemselVes will be made only after the Council follows its adopted policy and practices for changing policy documents. ­:dctropo:itan Cities Affordability and Diversification 0 to 8 points 1. Municipalities are ranked according to the percent of their owner -occupied housing (homesteads) with an assessed valuation equal to or lower than an amount affordable to households at 80 percent of area median income, and their total number of mobile homes. 0 to 8 points 2. Municipalities are ranked according to the percent of their total housing stock that is comprised of rental units affordable to households of low- and moderate -income (50 percent of area median income or less). This includes all federally subsidized rental units — public housing, Section 8 housing,units subsidized by the U.S. Department of Agriculture, units -de'vel'oped with the use of low-income housing tax credits, units developed with the assistance of MHFA, the LCA Fund or the assistance of a local fiscal tool or housing finance initiative.

Municipalities are ranked according to the percent of net units added to their housing stock that are affordable — both ownership and rental since the Council began monitoring in 1996. These "new" units may include units that have been "preserved" as affordable for a definitive period of time because of public or private re -investment to retain their affordability. ("Net units" means that affordable habitable units removed as the result of a city initiative will be subtracted from the total new affordable gaits.) rf to z points l-lousi:.- :'Or sp,_'c:zl nce,'s Municipalities are awarded I pout for each of tilt? followin`- types o1: sp -clal IloLIS1110 within their jurisdictions: l-lousin.? for \�,hlch federal. state. count' or local funds or thos•z ,)t'; :-on- proflt organization have been used to Purchase and operatunit'S or provide licensed housing :flat is not for the purposes o:I mc.-:•,er.::: in. bUt aS ;'t -transitional hla-Come:_: of adtll; of fe:.ders or adjLlt_::Catt_'.. delinquents A pub!:Cl%' subsidized or non -prof; OR)up 11,0111c I'CCIISC(i by tl: ncpal't:1lent of l-leal:tll or Det:artnlcnt of l lu:llan Service< •,%hit:::::;".:�fc; or perm:lnent housin`J :or the lll, de or CI:e111!Cally J."pCI1d"ll! • A shelter which is publicly subsidized and/or operated by a non-profit group to provide temporary housing for homeless persons and families, battered women or those not otherwise able to secure private housing • Housing for individuals and families who are homeless, but with a transitional stay of six to 24 months, and the assistance of advocates, can work towards housing stability and self-sufficiency to obtain permanent housing.

Bentley, Acting Transit Administrator ',4 SUBJECT: 2002 Transit Funding The Metropolitan Council has approved the transit finance plan for 2002 that includes a one-time cash grant of $1,000,000 for Plymouth Metrolink, to be paid in early 2002 (possibly in January). Action was taken by the Transportation Committee on Monday, September 24, 2001, and by the full Metropolitan Council on Wednesday, September 26, 2001. Attached is a copy of the staff memo that went to the Metropolitan Council Transportation Committee. I will be preparing the 2002 Management Plan and Budget for the Met Council over the next week or so, and will have a revised budget that I will provide to you. The Management Plan and Budget will be submitted to the Met Council staff by mid-October, will go to the Plymouth Advisory Committee on Transit on the 24`h, and should probably be presented to the City Council on October 291h If you have any questions please let me know. attachment cc: F ;%' Enginemng\TRANSIT\MEh10S.2001Uohnson_2002 Funding_10_2_01.doc Transportation Committee T Meeting date: September 24, 2001 Date: September 13, 2001 Subject: 2002 MVET Funding Transition Executive Summary Item: SW 2001-391 District(s), Member(s): All Policy/Legal Reference: 2001 Legislative Actions, 2002 Budget Staff Prepared/Presented: Beth Widstrom-Anderson, Alan Morris, Nacho Diaz, Carol Becker Division/Department: Finance/Transportation and Transit Development Proposed Action/Motion Endorse the plan to address the 2002 budget cash flow issues for transit programs that are a result of the changes from property tax funding to Motor Vehicle Excise Tax (MVET) funding: Endorse the financial plan for Council transportation programs outlined in this memo, to be adopted with the 2002 Transportation budget in December. Authorize transfer of $5.6 million to opt out communities for one-time transitional funding as detailed in Attachment A: • Authorize the transfer of $3,906,000 from the $5 million one-time transitional money authorized by the 2001 Legislature. • Amend the Council's 2001 Capital Budget and 2001-2006 Capital Program to free up $1,694,000 in opt out one-time funds. • Authorize the forgiveness of $715,794 of funds historical cash advances to opt outs. Overview and Funding 2002 Funding Changes Prior to 2002, the Council and opt out communities levied property taxes for transit operations in the Twin Cities metropolitan area. Starting in calendar year 2002, neither the Council nor opt out communities will levy property taxes for transit operations. Instead, the State will transfer 20.5 percent of the state's Motor Vehicle Excise Tax (MVET) to a Metropolitan Area Transit Fund as a replacement for the property tax levy. All of the revenues from this fund will be transferred to the Council for transit operations. The Council will then distribute a portion of these funds to opt out communities based on a formula established in legislation. The receipt of these funds will begin in August of 2002 and will continue monthly thereafter. The receipt of the last 2001 property taxes in December 2001 and the beginning of the MVET in August 2002 creates a gap in the receipt of funds, causing cash flow and budget issues in 2002. The MVET also varies from month to month, making it a more unpredictable revenue source. The resolution to this issue is outlined below.

General Forum Steve Gardner, 1017 10a` Avenue North, has attended many EQC and City Council meetings and is concerned with the number and size of trees being taken down due to development within the City. The current tree preservation ordinance requires reforestation when 50% of the trees are removed for development of a residential site and Mr. Gardner would like the percentage changed to 30% as it is in the City of Maple Grove. Mr. Gardner has noticed many of the new trees are dying and feels that the heavy clay soil is causing this problem. He would like the developers to dig out a large area of clay and replace it with black dirt. The trees could then be planted in the black dirt. Stream Assessment Carolyn Dindorf, Hennepin Conservation District, presented the Stream Presentation Assessment Overview to the EQC. With funding from a DNR grant the creeks and riparian corridors of the Elm Creek Watershed were inspected and their physical and ecological conditions were documented. Her presentation included several portions of Elm Creek that are located within the City of Plymouth. Page 1 of 4 D: ITEMP:091201.doc General management recommendations for Elm Creek include maintaining or reducing runoff volumes to maintain base flow, reduce imperviousness, maintain buffers/setbacks, control sediment load through good construction site erosion control program and culvert design that provides for low flow channel and flood plain flow. Review of City Shawn Drill, Planner, stated that he worked closely with the Forestry Ordinance on Tree Division and presented a draft of the proposed changes to the City's tree Preservation preservation regulations. The proposed changes to the tree preservation regulations are as follows: • The current equation would be eliminated and replaced with a simpler method for calculating the reforestation - or restitution requirement based on actual tree inches. • The restitution amount would be increased from $100 per inch to $125 per inch. • Restitution for removal/disturbance of trees designed as "preserved" on the approved plan would be increased from $100 per inch to $150 per inch and would be recognized as a "fine". Mr. Walstead stated that restitution for tree removal beyond 75% for commercial developments is too high. Mr. Drill stated that the percentage needs to be higher than residential sites because commercial buildings are larger and parking space is required. Mr. Walstead suggested that the specifications for planting trees be considered such as breaking up the soil before planting to provide better growing conditions and staking of the trees. Mr. Barten reported that studies have been done regarding soil compaction and plant growth. The study results indicate that roots cannot grow with soil compaction after construction. Councilmember Black questioned whether the increase in restitution is adequate since it has not been raised since 1994. Mr. Drill indicated that the increase is $25 per inch not a total of $25. Mr. Larson suggested a time limit for cutting of trees before the propem is sold. Mr. Drill reported that the underbrush issue was looked at but it would _ be hard to manage and most people want a more manicured look. Mr. Drill stated that updates are being made to the City's Subdivision Regulations .and he would like the EQC's recommendation to the City Page 2 of 4 D: ITEMP1091201.doc Council for the tree preservation portion. Chairperson Osborne requested more information and further discussion at a future meeting. Mr. Drill will present actual development drawings giving members a good idea of 30% and 50% tree removal. Plymouth Surface Ms. Hageman explained that the Storm Water Utility Fee was Water Incentive established as a revenue source to fund water quality improvement Program programs within the City. She referred to the Stormwater Fee Reduction Chart and stated that City staff and the Plymouth Business Environmental Partnership (PBEP) have been developing the incentive program over the summer. There are a wide range of opportunities for businesses to make positive changes in controlling runoff and reducing their fee by up to 20%. Free workshops will be held at the Plymouth Creek Center on October 31, 2001, January 24, 2002 and February 28, 2002. The workshops will present information on current regulations and compliance issues that pertain to storm water management. Grants will be awarded to residential single family and multi -family (up to eight units) for native landscaping, rain gardens, rain barrels, etc. rather than a reduction in their Storm Water Utility Fee. A motion was made by Terri Goodfellow -Heyer, seconded by Andy Walstead to approve the Stormwater Incentive Program as presented and forward the plan to the City Council for adoption. The motion carried. Medicine Lake Mr. Missaghi reported that Councilmember Harstad had asked for a Watershed change in the EQC's recommendation from the July 171" joint City Subcommittee Council meeting to better represent the issue. The change would have Recommendation included a "circuit breaker" whereby alum treatment would be applied to Medicine Lake if a specific in -lake phosphorus concentration was not reached. The EQC revisited the issue and agreed that no new change to the original recommendations were necessary. Mr. Missaghi will send a letter of comment to Councilmember Harstad regarding his recommendation that will not be included in the plan. Once the plan for Medicine Lake is approved we may begin implementation with a newsletter and formation of an aquatic vegetation management group. Water Restriction Mr. Missaghi reported that there has been a request from a concerned citizen to review the City's water restriction policy. Page 3 of 4 D: I TEMP1091201.doc This issue will be discussed at the next EQC meeting. Next Meeting The next meeting will be held on Wednesday, October 10, 2001 at 7:00 p.m. in the Council Chambers. Adjournment - The meeting was adjourned at 9:49 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Patty Hillstrom Page 4 of 4 D: V EjVP 091201.doc Mr. John Halla Hennepin County Juvenile Attorney's Office 300 South 6h Street Minneapolis, MN 55487 Dear Mr. Halla: On September 25, the Plymouth City Council conducted an administrative hearing on a liquor license violation where a 17 -year old clerk sold alcohol to an underage buyer. The Council was alarmed to hear that the juvenile involved in this sale had not been charged. They directed me to write and request that your office reconsider filing charges in this case. On May 26, 2001, Matthew Niedzielski, while working as a checker at Rainbow Foods, 16705 County Road 24, sold a 6 -pack of Zima to an underage buyer. Matthew Niedzielski (DOB 10/1/83) bypassed the automated system that Rainbow Foods has installed on their cash registers to prevent sales of alcohol to underage buyers. This automated system locks up the register when alcohol is scanned and will not permit the sale until the checker enters the buyer's date of birth. In this case, the checker looked at the 18 -year old buyer's Minnesota Driver's License, but then entered his own month and date of birth with a year of 1966 to enable the sale. Matthew was issued a citation for the offense. Matthew had been trained by Rainbow Foods and knew it was illegal and against store policy for him to make the sale. He completed the sale anyway. The Plymouth City Council has fined the license holder, Rainbow Foods, $2,000 and suspended their liquor license for 50 days because of this deliberate violation by their employee. The Plymouth City Council is requesting that you reconsider your denial to charge this case. The City Council believes that the seller should also be held accountable. Your case number regarding this sale by Matthew Niedzielski is 01-18054. Thank you for your consideration of this request. Sincerely, Jocel n H.
