Police in Plymouth, Maple Grove & Minnetonka
will target drunk drivers Halloween Weekend
The Cities of Plymouth, Maple Grove and Minnetonka will be trick or treating for drunk drivers on the
night of Sat., Oct. 30. All three Police Departments will have additional officers on the street to target
impaired drivers.
With Halloween being on Sunday this year, law enforcement officials expect that there will be many
parties and celebrations on Saturday night. As a result, they will step up enforcement that night to help
keep roads safe.
"If you're celebrating Halloween this year and plan on drinking, please make sure someone in your
party is dressed up as a sober designated driver, use alternative or public transportation or stay the
night at the location of the celebration," said Plymouth Police Lt. Scott Webb.
This stepped up enforcement action is in conjunction with the Safe & Sober campaign, a federally -
funded program administered by the Minnesota Department of Public Safety.
Like Safe & Sober, this local effort aims to prevent tragedies on the roadway. "If you drive drunk
those uniforms you see will not be your friends dressed up as cops. They'll be the officers of the
Plymouth, Maple Grove and Minnetonka Police Departments taking you off the road," said Webb.

Plymouth HRA Issues Request for Proposal for Architectural Services
to Design New Senior Apartment Building
The Plymouth Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) is looking at the possibility of
developing a new senior apartment building. The HRA has issued a request for proposal (RFP) to
architectural firms to design a 60 -unit, mixed income apartment building at the southwest corner of the
Hwy. 55 and Vicksburg Ln. in Plymouth. The building will provide independent living for seniors.
If the HRA pursues development of the new building, it would be part of a larger mixed use
redevelopment project by CSM Corporation on the site of the Dana Spicer building, which has been
vacant since 2002. Other developments proposed for the site include a Lowe's Home Improvement
store, Walgreen's, M & I bank, restaurants, small shops and possibly a Michael's Crafts store.
Proposals are due by 4:30 p.m. on Nov. 19. The HRA plans to review proposals later in
November and interview architectural firms on Dec. 16. Architectural firms interested in obtaining a
copy of the RFP should call Housing Program Manager Jim Barnes at 763-509-5412.
The Plymouth HRA works with the City's housing and community development programs,
administers federal, state, and local grants for housing programs. The HRA owns a 99 -unit, mixed
income apartment building for seniors, called Plymouth Towne Square. It is located at 15500 37th Ave.

Plymouth Police Sponsor the "File of Life" Medical Alert Program;
If police officers, paramedics, or firefighters respond to a medical emergency at your home, it's
critical for them to have readily accessible, accurate information on your medical history. The
Plymouth Police Department is offering a life-saving, medical alert program called the File of
Life. The department encourages residents who have long-term medical conditions to take part
in this campaign.
The File of Life allows families to compile and store medical information in a single, bright red
magnetized folder that is attached to the refrigerator. A File of Life sticker on the front door tells
emergency responders to look for the file. If the victim is transported to a hospital, the File of
Life folder will be sent along, and shared with the emergency room staff. If you have assigned
power-of-attorney or have a do -not -resuscitate directive, copies of these forms can be included in
the file.
The cost of the program is $1 for each file that is requested. Participants will receive a file,
instructions, sticker and magnet. Only one file should be kept per household.
"When responding to a medical emergency, time and information matter greatly. The File of
Life program makes medical information available in an instant and saves valuable time for
medical professionals," said Officer Angela Haseman.
For more information on the program or to purchase a File —of Life folder, call Officer Angela
Haseman at 763-509-5147. Residents may also purchase the file at the Plymouth Police
Department, 3400 Plymouth Blvd.. Office hours are Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays and

Suspicious fires at fast-food restaurants add to yearlong string
Chao Xiong
Star Tribune
Published October 20, 2004
Authorities are investigating a possible link in a yearlong string of suspected arson fires at fast-food restaurants in Plymouth that
continued early Tuesday with fires in Plymouth and Buffalo.
Plymouth police responded to an alarm just before 2:30 a.m. at the Wendy's at 14370 28th Place N., where they found a broken
window and a fire that appeared to have been set.
The fire was put out by the building's sprinkler system, said detective Jeff Voller. The building sustained minor smoke and water
damage, he said.
Buffalo police responded shortly after 6 a.m. at a fire at Arby's, I Hwy. 55 NE. They found a 2 -by -4 -foot hole in a window and a fire
in the dining room that had gone out by itself, said Police Chief Mitch Weinzetl.
The fire probably had been caused by an incendiary device between 1 and 6 a.m., he said.
The police departments are working together to investigate the fires. Voller would not say whether any suspects have been identified.
"There is sufficient evidence to suggest the two incidents are related," Weinzetl said. "I don't know how sophisticated [the suspect] is,
but if it's the same person, we're talking about a serial arsonist, and that's disconcerting."
The fires have occurred in fast-food restaurants along the Hwy. 55 corridor and were set while the businesses were closed, authorities
said.
They began on July 17, 2003, with a fire at a Plymouth Arby's that caused severe damage. The restaurant was demolished and rebuilt.
On June 23, 2004, the Wendy's that was also targeted Tuesday was set afire.
On July 12, 2004, a Plymouth McDonald's was set afire. It was torched again last Wednesday.
Authorities said there doesn't appear to be a direct risk to the general public, but warned that fire always poses a potential threat.
Anyone with information about the fires is asked to call Plymouth police at 763-509-5160 or the arson hot line at 1-800-723-2020. A
reward is being offered.

Guest Column Submitted to'Plymouth Sun -Sailor
City's 2005 budget will focus on public safety and streets
By Laurie Ahrens, Plymouth City Manager
Most people have a passing interest — at most -- in the city budget. That interest is
often borne of a desire to know how it will affect the bottom line of your property
tax bill. But, you have many other reasons to be interested in the city budget. The
city budget affects quality of life in the community -- how well your streets, parks
and trails are maintained, the level of police and fire service available,
development oversight and recreation programming.
When you pay your property taxes about 20% goes to the city to provide these
services. The remainder goes to schools (30%), Hennepin County (40%), other
tax jurisdictions (9%) and the Plymouth Housing and Redevelopment Authority
Over the past few months, city officials have been grappling with how to provide
services in the face of fiscal constraints and the demands that growth places on
city services. We have settled on a budget proposal for 2005 that tries to make up
some lost ground in two core services — public safety and streets.
-.
Budget Basics
The City's total overall 2005 levy will increase approximately 10%. Five percent
of that will go to the General Fund, which pays for most City services. While this
increase in the General Fund will not cover all growth and inflation, it will allow
the City to add two police officers. Most of the remainder of the levy will be
dedicated to capital improvements, including street reconstruction and expansion
of the Public Safety Building.
Some of the capital spending will go to street reconstruction. This will permit the
City to go back to paying for a portion of street reconstruction on an annual basis
rather than bonding or borrowing. We prefer to pay the cost of street
reconstruction in the year that it is done because it requires no bond interest
payments, making it cheaper in the long run.
The City bonded for street reconstruction in 2003 and 2004 to make up for $1.6
million in market value homestead credits and local government aid that the state
promised to pay but did not deliver. Next year, we are scheduled to be reimbursed
by the state for those credits so we can get some of that cost back to a pay -as -we -
go basis for street reconstruction. However, we are concerned that the state, once
again, in the face of another state budget deficit projected for next year will not
reimburse these funds.
`. I
The expansion and renovation with security improvements of the Public Safety
Building is the second major capital improvement that the City levy will fund.
The building, attached to City Hall, houses fire administrative offices and the
Police Department. The project will add a secure garage for public safety
vehicles, expand office and evidence storage space, and create a new combined
entrance for Public Safety and City Hall.
What does this mean to taxpayers? Property taxes for an average home, valued at
$323,900, will increase 9.6% or about $70 a year. Business property owners will
see a 2.8% decrease or $82 on a $980,000 business property. The disparity
between residential and business property is not due to actions of the City in the
budget process. It reflects the fact that residential property appreciated by 9%
while commercial/industrial property saw a 2% decrease in value. Also, in 2001,
the state legislature reformed the property tax formulas compressing rates that
caused a shift from in property taxes from commercial/industrial properties to
residential homeowners.
The owner of an average value home will pay $799 a year or $67 a month for City
services in 2005. City taxes cover the cost of police and fire service, street
maintenance, trail and park upkeep, recreation programming, community
planning, snowplowing and other local services.
CA
Increasing taxes is never something we take lightly or wish to do, but sometimes
it is absolutely necessary to save money in the long run as with our street
reconstruction effort and to fulfill our mission of providing essential services. It
also becomes necessary to keep up with growth — adding police officers and
expanding the Public Safety Building.
Plymouth has been one of the fastest growing cities in the state the past few years.
In 2002 and 2003, City services were extended to nearly 2,000 new dwelling units
and about 4,000 new residents living in those homes. Because of state -imposed
levy limits on cities, Plymouth has not been able to levy for approximately 11 %
growth and inflation of the past two years. We have simply lost that potential
revenue and will not be able to capture it.
In addition, over the past four years, the City has also suffered a loss of more than
$2 million to our budget in aid paid by the state. Together, these make it
increasingly difficult to maintain service levels in one of the fastest growing cities
in the state. That is why city officials have felt it is important to try to regain at
least some lost ground in 2005 in streets and police service.
In recent years, Plymouth has cut back its reforestation and tree trimming,
eliminated trail trimming and closed several outdoor ice rinks. With the exception
of police squads, the City also is retaining the vehicles in its fleet longer. With the
2005 budget proposal, we expect to make up some of the lost ground in police
staffing.
Plymouth remains a city with one of the lowest tax rates of cities over 10,000 in
population. We are very mindful of the hard-earned tax dollars that our citizens
pay to receive quality city services. The city continues to receive the highest
ratings for fiscal management and will continue to budget in a financially sound
manner on your behalf.
We will detail the proposed budget at a public hearing on Mon., Dec. 6, 7 p.m., at
City Hall, 3400 Plymouth Blvd. The meeting will be televised live on cable
channel 16.
Information on the proposed 2005 City budget is posted on the web site,

To reduce the cost of plan production and allow for wider distribution, we are sending the plan in
CD-ROM format to many of those on the distribution list. Prior to mass copying of the plan, the
BCWMC is interested in receiving your input as to whether it would be helpful to include
supplemental information on the CD version (e.g., streambank maintenance guidelines, BCWMC
roster, the orientation presentation held at the Plymouth Creek Center in July, pictures of principal
structures within the watershed, etc.).
It is our intent to furnish each member city with two paper copies and two CDs of the plan. If your
city would like more copies (paper or CD), then please notify Pat Schutrop, recorder for the
BCWMC, at 952-832-2652 or pschutrop(@barr.com no later than November 1. After each member
city has furnished the total number of plans needed, as well as recommendations for additional
information to include on the CD-ROM, the plan will be distributed sometime in November.
If you have any questions about the plan, please contact me at 763-764-2422, or Len Kremer,
Engineer for the BCWMC, at 952-832-2781.

Mr. Peter Bell, Chair
Metropolitan Council
230 East 5`h Street
St. Paul, MN 55101
RE: 2030 Transportation Policy Plan ("TPP")
Dear Chairman Bell and Members of the Metropolitan Council:
The 494 Corridor Commission ("Commission') is a joint powers organization composed of the
cities of Bloomington, Richfield, Edina, Eden Prairie, Plymouth and Minnetonka. The purpose of the
organization is to promote the effective and efficient movement of people and goods along the I-494
Corridor.
There are several matters of concern to the Commission. These concerns are as follows:
(1) The Commission has, by resolution, previously expressed its support of
the Crosstown Commons project and continues that support in this letter
to the Council. The Crosstown Commons project is viewed as a vital
transportation improvement for all Commission member cities.
(2) The I-35W/I494 interchange should be considered for funding and
subsequent reconstruction if a constrained plus 30% budget is achieved.
Based upon volume and safety, this is arguably the most important
interchange in not only the state but also the entire region.
(3) The Commission is concerned over the relative lack of .decision in the
plan regarding suburb -to -suburb transit. The draft TPP provides no
ongoing funding source for east -west transit movements on the beltway,
as discussed in the recent Sector 5 Study. In fact, there seems to be a de -
emphasis on suburb -to -suburb travel. The final TPP should include a
provision for permanent transit service in this Corridor, including a
connection to 35W BRT and further provide for suburb -to -suburb travel
west and beyond the scope of the Sector 5 Study between cities such as
Plymouth, Minnetonka and Eden Prairie.
Mr. Peter Bell, Chair
October 21, 2004
Page 2
(4) In the prior TPP, those portions of US Highway 169 and Highway 62,
within the I-494 beltway (excluding the I-35W/Crosstown Commons
project), were listed as improvement corridors. Those two highway
segments, vital to the western and southwestern suburbs, are no longer
mentioned as either expansion or improvement corridors in the 2030
TPP. We believe these two segments of roadway should be included in
the final TPP as the need for expansion of these two corridors has been
clearly documented.
Our thanks to you and the Council for your attention to these requests and concerns.
If you have any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact me.

FROM: Anne Hurlburt, Community Development Director
SUBJECT: INFORMATION ON STREET RECONSTRUCTION
The adoption of the 2005-2009 CIP (Capital Improvements Program) is on the Council's
agenda for the October 26 meeting. We understand that there may be some residents
appearing to request that the CIP be amended to change the scheduled year for street
reconstruction projects in their neighborhood.
Attached is some background information on street reconstruction, which staff provided
to Councilmember Kelli Slavik for a meeting earlier this week with residents of the
Hawthorne Ponds neighborhood. They may seek to have their area, now projected for a
2007 reconstruction project, moved up to 2005.
Since we prepared this material, an additional question about the "CI" ratings of streets
was asked: does the presence or absence of curb/gutter or storm sewer affect the Cl
rating? The answer is, no. The CI rating is based on the condition of the pavement
surface only.
Please let us know if there is any additional information that we can provide.
DATE: October 19, 2004
TO: Kelli Slavik, Councilmember Ward 2
FROM: Anne Hurlburt, Community Development Director

The Hawthorne Ponds area was NOT in the 5 -year plan for street reconstruction
until after the petition was received from the neighborhood.

Mr. Mike Caticchio
17805 4`h Ave. N
Plymouth, MN 55447
SUBJECT: PETITION FOR STREET RECONSTRUCTION
Dear Mr. Caticchio:
Enclosed is the petition for street reconstruction that you requested. A reconstruction project in your
area would most likely include 2`h Avenue, 3`h Avenue, 4`h Avenue, 6`h Avenue, Merrimac Lane,
Narcissus Lane, and Queensland Lane. I have also enclosed a map showing the proposed project
area.
Street reconstruction projects typically include removal of the existing street to a depth of 2.5 feet,
then placement of 18 inches of sand, installation of draintile in selected areas, and replacing the
roadway section with 8 inches of gravel and 4 inches of pavement. Existing concrete curb and gutter
would be repaired as needed and new concrete curb and gutter would be installed where it currently
does not exist. The existing storm sewer would also be repaired as needed and added in areas where
it currently does not exist. Lawn and driveway areas which are disturbed by construction would be
restored.
This project would be subject to assessments to each property pursuant to the City Assessment
Policy. There are four types of assessments that would apply to a project in your area: Street
Reconstruction, Curb and Gutter, Storm Sewer, and New Street Construction. Enclosed for your
information is a copy of the Street Reconstruction Assessment Policy.
The street reconstruction assessment includes all work necessary to remove and replace the existing
street. Repairs to the existing curb and gutter, sanitary sewer, storm sewer and watermain (if needed)
would not be assessed separately.
Areas that do not have existing concrete curb and gutter, storm sewer, or that have inadequate storm
sewer systems will be assessed the cost to bring them up to City standards. An estimated total
assessment amount in these areas would be in the range of $5,000 to $8,000 per lot. The amounts of
storm sewer assessments vary greatly depending on the system required.
The areas that have existing concrete curb and gutter, and storm sewer will only be assessed for the
street reconstruction. The estimated total assessment amount in these areas would range from $2,500
to $4,500 per lot.

Assessments can either be paid in full immediately following the project to avoid paying interest, or
rolled onto property taxes to be paid over a certain number of years at a set interest rate. An
assessment for this project would typically be over ten (10) years and at the prime rate plus 0.50%.
In order for this project to be initiated by the residents, you will need at least 55% of the property
owners to sign the petition. There are 131 homes in the proposed project area, therefore you will
need signatures from 73 different property owners. Signing the petition does not waive any rights to
public hearings or the right to appeal assessments. The petition only indicates to the City Council the
level of support in the neighborhood for a street reconstruction project. The City Council would
ultimately determine whether to go forward with the project. This determination will depend on the
interest level in the neighborhood, the condition of these streets as compared to others in the City, and
the available funding. You can either deliver, mail, or fax (763-509-5510) the petition to me once
you have completed it.
If you have any questions or if I can be of any further assistance, please contact me at 763-509-5541.
Sincerely,
(;z (�

STREET RECONSTRUCTION
ASSESSMENT POLICY REVISED 2004
Resolution 2003-386
September 9, 2003 (Supersedes Res. 2003-353, Aug. 12, 2003)
Street Reconstruction. The City Council has adopted a long-range plan providing for the
periodic reconstruction, including resurfacing, of all paved city streets. The City Council
adopted policies which are designed to ensure the orderly and fiscally responsible
implementation of this plan on a community -wide basis.
The following is the General Street Reconstruction Policy for special assessments to
benefiting property.
a. It is the policy of the City to special assess abutting benefiting property for street
reconstruction costs, but not in excess of the special benefit to the property. This
policy applies to all streets that are the responsibility of the City.
b. The assessment rate for the reconstruction of previously paved streets shall be
determined annually by the City Council.
The assessment rate is based on the following:
(1) Benefited properties shall be assessed 30% of the engineer's estimated
project cost as set forth in the project feasibility report or 30% of the
actual project cost, whichever amount is less, but in no event less than
20% of the actual project cost.
(2) Assessments shall not exceed any of the following:
(a) the special benefit to the property being assessed;
(b) the total assessments in a maintenance district may not exceed the
project cost in the maintenance district;
(c) the total assessment for a project may not exceed the project cost.
Project cost includes both direct construction costs and all indirect costs
such as engineering and administration.
(3) Assessments shall normally be levied for a period not to exceed five (5)
years. Longer assessment periods will be considered when other
assessable public improvements are being constructed at the same time.
(4) Assessments for single-family parcels shall be made on a per parcel (unit)
basis.
(5) Multi -family housing parcels shall be converted into an equivalent number
of parcel units by dividing the area of the multi -family parcel by 18,500
(the City's established minimum lot size). The number of equivalent units
are then multiplied by the single-family assessment rate to determine the
assessment for the property.
(6) The area of commercial/industrial parcels shall be divided by 18,500 to
establish the number of equivalent units for the property. Institutional
properties such as schools, churches, and public property are assessed as
commercial/industrial.
C. For the purposes of street reconstruction, the project costs will include the cost
of replacing or repairing concrete curb and gutter. In those cases where
bituminous curbing is replaced with concrete curb and gutter, an additional
special benefit will be assessed. The cost to be assessed shall be the cost of
installing the concrete curb and gutter and assessed on either a front foot or
per lot basis. The addition of a wider street or a storm sewer system may also
be considered an additional benefit and may be assessed.
(7) The Street Reconstruction assessments for the 2004 Street Reconstruction
Program shall be calculated based on 20% of the total project cost of the
2004 Street Reconstruction Program.
Senior Citizens and Disabled People Special Assessments Deferrals. If you are at
least 62 years of age or are disabled, you may qualify to have special assessments
deferred if they create a hardship for you.
STREET RECONSTRUCTION
PETITION POLICY
Resolution 2003-387
September 9, 2003
From time to time, the City receives petitions from residents who wish to have their street
improved. In order to meet the purpose of the City's Pavement Management Program,
the petitions need to be evaluated in the context of the overall program.
After receipt of a written request, the City Engineer will establish a project area that
would constitute a reasonably sized and configured project for efficient construction. A
map of the proposed project area, the City's Street Reconstruction Assessment Policy,
and a petition form will then be mailed to the petitioner. The petition must acknowledge
that a portion of the project cost will be assessed to benefiting properties and attach a
copy of the Street Reconstruction Assessment Policy.
A petition will be forwarded to the City Council when it has been signed by 55% or more
of the owners of the property expected to be assessed for the project. After receiving the
petition, the City Council will consider whether to include the petitioned area in the
current Street Reconstruction Program or refer it to City staff for consideration when the
next update of the Pavement Management Report is prepared.
CITY OF PLYMOUTH
PETITION
We, the undersigned, do hereby petition the City of Plymouth, Mayor and Council for the installation of the
following public improvements:
A reconstruction project in your area would most likely include 2`h Avenue, P Avenue, 4h Avenue, 6`h Avenue,
Merrimac Lane Narcissus Lane, and Queensland Lane. This project is to be assessed per the attached Street
Reconstruction Assessment Policy.
We understand that these improvements will be subject to assessments pursuant to the City's Special
Assessment Policy (see attached).

DATE: October 20, 2004
TO: Laurie Ahrens, City Manager
FROM: Mike Koh, Financial Analyst through Dale Hahn, Finance Director
SUBJECT: City of Plymouth Investment Report (9/30/04)
Attached, you will find a report on the status of the City's investments as of September
30, 2004. The City's average weighted yield (3.06% as of 9/30/04) has declined slightly
over the last year, but is above the bottom of 3.00% reached in Q2-2003. This is a
reflection of continued low rates in the fixed income market, and the shortening of the
average duration of the portfolio.
Over the last several months we have successfully carried out our objective to shorten the
duration of the portfolio. This was done for two reasons. The first reason was to place
the portfolio in a position to take advantage of rising rates. The second reason is that we
need to accumulate short-term investments to be able to cashflow large projects such as
the Public Safety Building and Water System expansions and renovations. By keeping
duration short we will be sacrificing some current yield but will improve our prospects
when rates return to a more normal level.
Looking forward, rates are still expected to increase from their still historically low and
accommodative levels. Due to some perceived weakness in the economy, resulting in
large part from record high oil prices, the rate of such increase is likely to be fairly slow
and "measured". In light of the current market conditions, expectations for the future,
and projected cashflow needs, I plan to invest funds primarily in the 2 to 24 month range.
As a result, I expect that our average yield will continue to hover around 3%.
