Bassett Creek Water Management Commission
2005 Budget and Levy
June 2004
The Joint and Cooperative Agreement establishing the Bassett Creek Water Management Commission
sets forth the procedure required to adopt the annual budget. Article VIII, Subdivision 3, provides that
each member agrees to contribute each year to a general fund to be used for administrative purposes and
certain operating expenses. Half of the annual contribution of each member is based on assessed valuation
of property within the watershed and the other half on the ratio of area of each member within the
watershed to the total area of the Bassett Creek watershed. Subdivision 5 of Article VIII further provides:
"On or before July 1 of each year, the Board shall adopt a detailed budget for the ensuing year and decide
upon the total amount necessary for the general fund." Budget approval requires a two-thirds vote (six
Commissioners). Further, the Secretary "shall certify the budget on or before July 1 to the clerk of each
member governmental unit, together with a statement of the proportion of the budget to be provided by
each member." Each of the nine members then has until August 1 to file an objection to the budget.
The budget proposal for 2005 was prepared by a Budget Committee consisting of John O'Toole
(Commission and Committee Chair), Mayor Linda Loomis (Commission Treasurer), Michael Welch,
Bill Yaeger, and Elizabeth Thornton. A representative of Barr Engineering Company advised on
engineering -related items.
The approved 2005 budget is enclosed. Although the flood control project is completed, budget for
inspecting the project has been included. Since 2001, much of the work carried out by the Commission
has been directed toward preparation of the State -mandated "second generation plan." The plan will be
completed in 2004. The year 2005 budget of $367,500 was adopted by all nine commissioners voting in
favor of the budget at the Commission meeting on May 20, 2004. Specific items in the budget are
discussed below.
1. Engineering services are budgeted at $181,000 in 2005. Many of the individual items are similar
to the 2004 budgets. These are: plan review costs ($100,000), Attendance at Commission
Meetings ($10,000), Surveys and Studies ($15,000), Water Quantity ($7,000), Watershed
Inspections ($11,000), and Annual Inspections ($8,000). Water Quality monitoring is budgeted
for $30,000. Municipal Plan Review was again not budgeted for in 2005. Water Quality
expenditures, which for many years have been directed at examining methods for improving
water quality in Bassett Creek and its several sub -drainage basins, will now be concerned largely
with monitoring water quality.
2. Planning services are budgeted at $17,000 in 2005. Tasks include submitting the Second
Generation Plan (mandated by the State law) for review and approval and Plan implementation
(largely water quality projects). Much of the work will be revising, printing, and distributing the
final plan, and implementation of the capital improvements plan.
3. Routine Legal services are budgeted at $13,000.
4. Financial Management is budgeted for $1,000 for services provided by the Deputy Treasurer at
the City of Golden Valley.
5. Liability Insurance, Auditing and Bonding is budgeted at $7,000.
243897
6. Secretarial services, including mailing and copying, are budgeted at $27,000.
7. Public Relations are budgeted as -follows: Publications/Annual Report ($3,000), Website
improvements ($4,000), Watershed Outlet Monitoring Program (WONT) ($10,000), Citizens
Assisted Monitoring Program (CAMP) ($4,000), the Hennepin Conservation District River
Watch Program ($1,500), Watershed Partners ($5,000), and Public Communications ($3,000).
8. Demonstration Projects was reduced to $1,000. Criteria are being prepared for how
demonstration projects will be funded.
9. Erosion/Sediment (Maintenance Project) is budgeted at $25,000.
10. Long -Term Maintenance (Flood Control Project) is budgeted at $25,000.
11. The Contingency item is budged at $5,000.
12. Total Maximum Daily Load (TMDL) Studies was added to the 2005 budget in the amount of
$35,000 in anticipation of a State mandate to prepare TMDL studies on lakes within the
watershed.
At its May 20, 2004 meeting, the Commissioners also considered the assessment on the cities. The 2005
assessment was adopted by all nine Commissioners voting in favor to levy $367,500 for the 2005 fiscal
year, as compared with the $376,656 adopted in 2004, based on the following:
Funding Needs:
2005 Administrative Budget............................................................................................... $367,500
Funding Source:
Proposed 2005 Assessment................................................................................................. $367,500
Assessment proposed for 2005 Capital Projects (Hennepin County)..................................$375,000
The detailed levy for 2005 by communities is also enclosed.

4. Membership Committee Report — Karla Heeter presented the membership meeting report. Chatham Township
has joined the Highway 55 Coalition. The revised joint powers board agreement has been approved by all affected
parties except Hennepin County and that approval should be coming soon. In response to questions asked about
consulting firms becoming members of the Coalition, Jack Russek reported that the Wright County attorney indicated
that he didn't see any problem with consulting engineers becoming members. A request was made to obtain a written
opinion to that effect.
5. Financial Report - Wayne Fingalson provided the financial report. The Coalition has a fund balance of $9,132.98
as of April 15, 2004. A complete financial report was provided. It was noted that a few new members have joined
the Coalition. Motion by Swenson seconded by Erickson to approve the financial report as presented. Motion
passed with all voting in favor.
6. Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) Report — Chad Hausman from MnDOT noted that a consultant has been
selected for the traffic study and an announcement is expected shortly on which consultant was hired. The report due
to the Legislature on the Highway 55 is being reviewed by MnDOT's legislative staff. A project memo needs to be

the time to visit the Coalition. A request was also made that the final Legislative Report on the Highway 55
demonstration project be sent to everyone in the Coalition.
8. Administrative and Project Coordination Services RFP — Wayne Fingalson discussed the RFP process for

9. Federal and State Update- Margaret Donahoe from the Transportation Alliance updated members on the status of
federal transportation funding issues. The House of Representatives has passed its TEA -21 Reauthorization bill with
$275 billion provided for six years. This compares to the Senate bill which was funded at $318 billion. As noted by
Mark Matuska from Congressman Kennedy's office at the meeting with Lt. Governor Molnau, $5 million is included
in the House bill for corridor preservation from I-494 to Annandale. The Coalition has also requested $3.5 million for
the FY2005 Appropriations bill. No funding for Highway 55 was provided in the Senate reauthorization bill,
however, the Senate members will have an opportunity to add earmarks in conference committee. Donahoe suggested
that Coalition members meet with Senate staff to promote inclusion of an earmark for Highway 55 in the final bill. At
the state level, the Legislature is working on bonding requests in the area of transportation including funding for local
roads and bridges. The House Transportation Finance Committee has passed its recommendations in the area. The
Senate has yet to put forward its bonding recommendations.

time to keep side walls from caving in. This project is behind schedule about 5-
10 days due to rain. We are working with LifeTime to make sure things continue
on an even keel. All new sewer lines and water lines are going in and a switch
over from the old to the new needs to take place in a week or so.
c. Update on other capital proiects. Blank said that at the Reserve park crews
have poured the concrete slab for the gazebo; they are starting to install the
playground, and all grading has been done. Once the playground is in place,
then crews can start paving and landscaping. All grading was done before the
rains came. At Lions park, playground installation is about half done. Architects
are tweaking the plan for the new warming house at Ridgemount. We are out
for bid on the trail project. The contractor is moving forward with last year's trail
project along 36th Avenue to New Hope near Plymouth Middle School. Singer
asked about the NURP pond at Medicine Lake. Blank said there will be two
ponds located there. They will move into the park area once the swimming
season is over in late August. The park will then be shut down due to heavy
construction. The Regional trail will remain open for the most part. Not quite
half of the parking will be lost Blank said. Singer asked about Mrs. Begin. Blank
said she wasn't feeling well the last time he visited, so he rescheduled for last
week, but she later called and cancelled that meeting. He continues to try and
reschedule with her.
6. NEW BUSINESS
a. Set fieldhouse rental rates for 2004-05. Blank explained that we need to publish
our rental rates in the next recreation brochure so they need to be set now. The
fieldhouse, like the ice center, is an enterprise fund. All operating expenses are
paid through rentals, and we have to allow for maintenance, repair, and
replacement. That margin is $85,000 a year. Based on the rates we have, we're
comfortable that we're making that $85,000 margin. In our second year of
operation, we added a propane standby system, which shaves 20% off the
natural gas bills. The turf was also replaced last year. We reached into our
reserves to purchase these items. Reserves are $100,000 behind where they
should be, Blank said. It's appropriate at this time to do a rate increase. Busch,
the PCC manager, proposed raising them $15 per hour. Blank thought that was
too much, so he's proposing raising them $9 for primetime and $10 for non -
primetime. The Wayzata Central bubble will only have a half field, and they will
charge $100 per hour. Minnetonka hasn't let us know what their price point will
be. We're substantially under what other communities charge, but Blank said
we're comfortable with our rates. He thinks Minnetonka will be in the $200
range. Singer asked why Blank is proposing $244 instead of $245 per hour.
Busch wants an even dollar amount that can be cut in half. Half of $244 is
$122, while half of $245 is $122.50. Singer doesn't feel $9 is enough for a two

year rate plan. Blank said we'll come back with a report next year, so we don't
have to lock it in for two years. Fiemann wants to see how the Wayzata and
Minnetonka bubbles affect us, so he's concerned about raising fees too much.
Davis said it's implied that we replaced the turf early. He wondered if we
adjusted reserves to cover the next replacement. Blank said we replaced it
early not due to a quality issue, but due to a color issue. The second turf has a
6 year warranty on it. Blank said he thinks it will have a 10 year life cycle. Blank
also said the total cost is $400,000 to replace the turf, but we got it for $90,000.
Blank also said the reserves are earning interest. We were $10,000 over our
margin this year, so Blank thinks we'll go up about $20,000 over our margin by
charging $9 more per hour. Singer thinks we should take the opportunity to
build up our reserves. Singer hasn't heard much talking about the Wayzata
bubble, but she has heard that people love the Plymouth fieldhouse turf.
Rodriquez asked about the quality of the new Wayzata bubble turf. Blank said
the product at the central facility is the same as the product at the high school.
Our field is 60 yards wide, theirs is 50-53 yards wide. SINGER MOVED TO
ACCEPT STAFF'S RECOMMENDATION OF RAISING FIELDHOUSE RATES
TO $244 PER HOUR FOR PRIMETIME AND $210 PER HOUR FOR NON
PRIMETIME FOR ONE YEAR. DAVIS SECONDED. MOTION CARRIED, ALL
AYES.
7. COMMISSION PRESENTATION
None.
8. STAFF COMMUNICATION
Blank shared some information regarding the city-wide survey done recently. He
pointed out some of the statistics regarding the recreation portion of the survey.
The last survey was done in 1999, so there are comparisons between this year's
survey and that year's survey. The City started doing surveys in 1982 or 1983 and
trails always came out as being the most wanted recreation amenity. But that has
now changed. Now people are more interested in open space. They feel we finally
have enough trails. Blank said we have ordinances now that indicate where
sidewalks are required. Our staff and the planning staff monitor where trails and
sidewalks need to go in any new development. Fiemann believes that a sidewalk
or trail is needed over by Plymouth Station to get people to the shopping area from
the residential neighborhood west of there. Blank said we are working on the
videotape for the Gold Medal award. Singer has been working on that with Evans.
Channel 9 has volunteered to fly a helicopter over the city for the purpose of taking
some overhead shots for the video. They have cameras mounted underneath the
helicopter. The video has to be in by June 25. The next Park Commission meeting
is July 8, which falls during the holiday week. There was some discussion about
moving the meeting. Blank will not be available on the 15th. If there is no urgent
business, we may cancel the July meeting.
