At the previous C ouncil informal meeting, there were a number of questions regarding the
individual projects and costs in the project scope options presented. Staff has created a
detailed report that provides a description and justification for each proposed project and
explains how different projects could be packaged together and financed. Staff hopes to
provide the C ouncil with the necessary information to determine a desired project scope.
B AC K G RO UND :
Staff has been exploring ways in which to address deficiencies in the C ity's buildings
and have been investigating options with an innovative concept known as an Energy Savings
Performance C ontract (ESP C ’s). C ities are increasingly using ESP C ’s as a means to
identify, implement, and finance deeper level energy savings improvements in city facilities.
Staff has been in conversation with one such independent firm known as Ameresco. T he
City used A meresco for a similar project in 2012.
Earlier in 2017, the C ity C ouncil authorized staff and Ameresco to develop a detailed cost
proposal to address some of the C ity’s building projects and evaluate potential energy
efficiency upgrades that could save the C ity money in the longer term.
Ameresco has been working with staff to develop detailed project cost estimates. Staff is
presenting these findings to the C ity C ouncil so that the City can decide on a project scope
that it would like to pursue.
B UD G E T I M PAC T:
T he budget would be dependent on the size and scope of the project chosen.

Administration
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Charles Grawe Assistant City Administrator
DATE: January 5, 2018
SUBJECT: 2017-2018 Ameresco Project Options
Introduction
The City maintains numerous buildings and facilities valued at many tens of millions of dollars.
Between 1986 and 2001, the City invested heavily in new facilities, constructing or adding to
facilities at an unprecedented rate through 26 different projects (See Appendix E). As these
facilities reach 20 to 30 years of age, many of the building systems and components reach an end
of useful life and require replacement or rehabilitation. City staff has been engaged in an
ongoing process to improve tracking and planning of necessary maintenance projects to provide
extended value and use of the facilities. In order to address the bubble of necessary maintenance
projects, City staff has been investigating innovative methods to fund these replacements.
Energy Savings Performance Contracts
The Minnesota State Legislature approved a funding mechanism known as an Energy Savings
Performance Contract (ESPC’s) as a tool that allows governments to leverage cost savings from
energy efficiency improvements to pay for those improvements and other energy-savings-related
capital needs. The City can work with an ESPC provider that guarantees pre-determined utility
bill and operational savings from energy efficiency improvements. The ESPC provider finances
the purchase of the energy efficiency improvements. The City pays back the financing over time
using the pre-determined savings. This means that the department budgets need to be reduced by
a corresponding amount in the utility categories so the funds can repay the financing.
Cities are increasingly using ESPC’s as a means to identify, implement, and finance deeper level
energy savings improvements in city facilities. ESPC’s are a popular funding mechanism
because the impact on the taxpayer is often felt less than a levy increase. There are two basic
types of ESPCs. Some are tied to equipment manufacturers who want to implement their
products in the solution and often require maintenance agreements as well. Others are
independent companies that utilize solutions from a variety of different vendors to best meet the
needs of the client and their facilities.
Past Experience with Ameresco as an ESPC
In 2012, the City contracted with Ameresco, an independent ESPC provider, to accomplish a
number of energy-related capital improvement projects. However, at that time, the City chose to
pay cash for the improvements, rather than using the financing mechanism. Ameresco
2
functioned as the engineers and construction managers of the projects. On the whole, staff was
very satisfied with the contractors chosen by Ameresco and the quality of the work done.
2017 Ameresco Project Proposal Process
In 2017, as staff worked on the Capital Improvements Program (CIP) and proposed operating
budget, staff began looking at different methods to address the oncoming bubble of facility
maintenance and rehabilitation projects. One idea was to work with Ameresco to leverage
energy savings from energy efficiency projects to help finance other end-of-life replacement
energy-savings-related capital projects. Staff began working with Ameresco early in the year. In
April, the City Council authorized Ameresco to proceed with a feasibility analysis. This
preliminary study identified projects that had the most potential for inclusion in a successful
project. In August, the City Council approved a Project Development Agreement with
Ameresco to develop firm project cost options. Under that agreement, there is a $35,000 fee to
reimburse engineering and planning fees if the City would choose not to enter into a final project
agreement.
Types of Projects Evaluated for Inclusion in a Final Project
The process for evaluating projects for potential inclusion in the final project was a collaborative
effort between Ameresco engineers and City staff. Staff from Administration, Finance, Parks,
Public Works, and Fire met many times with Ameresco in both meeting and site tour settings to
evaluate a wide variety of possible projects. Ameresco engineers were able to identify low-
hanging fruit energy efficiency improvements commonly used to generate rapid project payback.
These are often projects that are better bundled into a single project, rather than attempting to
piece-meal over time. Staff identified end-of-life capital projects where some energy efficiency
could be gained, but also there would be cost savings from economies of scale associated with
bundling related projects together for engineering, bidding, and project management. Staff also
attempted to include some projects where alternate forms of financing could be challenging and
the benefits of the ESPC financing might be preferable to the Council.
Potential Projects
Working with Ameresco, staff identified a final list of potential projects to present to the City
Council. Appendix A provides a summary page for each project, including cost and justification
information. In addition to those projects presented to the Council, several other projects were
initially explored, but did not make the final list as they were found not to be a good fit for the
final project. These considered projects included CMF garage heating, Water Treatment Plant
generator room heating, Former City Hall HVAC system, Hayes Arena rooftop solar arrays,
various building envelope improvements, and various vending machine controls. It is important
to recognize that the list presented to the City Council is a menu of possible options. The
Council could choose some, all, or none of the projects. However, there would be different
financing options and potential costs associated with different combinations of projects.
Project Financing Considerations
When determining what projects to include, the Council may want to keep these financing
considerations in mind. Under the existing project development agreement with Ameresco, the
City is required to reimburse Ameresco $35,000 for engineering fees if it decides not to go
forward with a project. Even if the City chooses not to move forward with a project, the data
provided by the studies done to date are still of significant value to the City. The State law limits
how the ESCP process can be used by limiting the total project amount by what can be recovered
in energy and operational savings over 20 years. The City can choose projects that don’t provide
3
much energy savings by adding more energy savings projects or by adding cash to pay for the
non-savings projects.
Supplemental Funding Sources
Depending on the projects chosen, the entire project may or may not be fully funded by annual
energy and operational savings. Staff has identified supplemental funding sources that can be
used for certain projects. For enterprise funds, some of these amounts were considered in the
2018 budget process and earmarked as Ameresco projects. Generally, the net project cost for
each enterprise fund would be charged to the benefiting fund, if funds exist. The enterprise
funds could draw from the budget’s reserves for their projects.
Designated or Identified 2018 Funding Sources Related to Proposed Ameresco Projects
Fund Amount Budgeted Purpose
General Fund $6,000 Information Technology
Division Office Lighting
Municipal Building Fund $28,000 Fire roof top unit (RTU),
Community Center Lighting
Water Fund $50,000 Water Treatment Plant Boiler
Hayes Arena $235,000 Roof and Lighting
Sports Arena $17,500 Lighting
Total $336,500
During the CIP and annual budget preparation processes, staff anticipated that some form of
financing may be necessary to accomplish the capital goals for 2018. As part of the approved
levy for 2018, $95,000 was identified to support capital improvement debt payments. This could
be applied to financing done through an ESCP or other financing forms. Staff did not assume
that this entire amount would necessarily be used for the different project options, so the levy
contribution varies with the project proposals that were presented. Funds not used to support the
capital financing would be directed toward the other capital needs in the Municipal Building
Fund.
Recurring energy and maintenance savings become a source of funding because each respective
operating budget will be reduced and these funds will be directed to the projects. The annual
energy savings are estimated to total $80,915. The annual operations savings are estimated to
total as much as $52,279, depending on the project package chosen. See Appendix F for more
details concerning the operational savings.
Sample Project Explanations
The Council has considerable latitude in selecting individual projects to be included in the final
project scope. Staff has worked with Ameresco to create recommended project package
concepts that may help the Council in evaluating its options. Additional project combinations
can easily be created.
Option 1 (Self-Funded Project)
This option presents a group of projects that provides enough energy and operational
savings that it could be self-funded through savings, not requiring supplemental funding
sources. These projects are primarily lighting retrofits and boiler replacements. This
4
project would also include the Hayes Arena roof replacement. This project totals
approximately $2 million. (See Appendix B)
Option 2 (Option 1 Projects Plus 2 Boilers and JCRP Field Lighting)
This option presents the same group of projects from Option 1, but also includes
$237,342 for boiler replacement at the Community Center and Water Treatment Plant, as
well as the replacement of the JCRP field lighting with LED retrofits. The field lighting
totals $954,437. In order to make this project finance through this method, $336,500 in
supplemental funding would be required from the Water, Arena General, and Municipal
Building Funds. This option also requires the allocation of $62,000 of the debt support
levy. This project totals approximately $3.2 million. (See Appendix C)
Option 3 (Option 2 Projects Plus Sports Arena Upgrades)
The Sports Arena ice plant is well past its end-of-life and requires replacement. The risk
for a critical failure that would prevent use of the Arena for the ice season is already high
and climbs higher with every day. This project presents all of the previously described
projects and includes the $3.7 million Sports Arena project (new ice plant, new hockey
boards, and new air handling unit). This option would require significant supplemental
funding including all funding sources in Option 2 as well as the full $95,000 of the debt
support levy. This project totals approximately $6.9 million. (See Appendix D)
Projects with Time Sensitivity
While all of the projects are important and many are pressing, there are three projects that have
some degree of urgency. The Fire Station #1 roof top unit is at a point where further repair is not
feasible. Staff believes it is important to replace this unit early in 2018 to avoid a possible
catastrophic failure. The building control software for the Municipal Center and Central
Maintenance Facility is well past its useful life and is no longer supported. If the software fails,
it is very possible that all of the setting controls for the building will be lost. Staff believes it is
important to accomplish this upgrade in early 2018. Finally, the Sports Arena project is difficult
because there is a very small window of time in which the building is not used for ice and can be
under construction. This project would need to begin no later than March in order to have the ice
ready for the fall season.
Staff Recommendation
Staff believes that all of the proposed projects are justified, worthy of consideration, and will
benefit the City in the long-term. All of the proposed projects involve facility components that
have reached or will effectively reach end-of-life in the next five years and will require some
form of remediation or replacement. The question is how many of these projects the City prefers
to address now and how many will be addressed over the next five years. There are benefits to
combining similar projects that will save on engineering, project management, and project
bidding. At the same time, this does create a larger front-end expenditure. Below are some
considerations for the Council when evaluating the desired scope of the project.
Option 1
Staff recommends proceeding with the Option 1 projects for several reasons. These items have
faster payback times, allowing the City to capture energy and maintenance savings to use on the
other projects. Removing faster payback items from the scope will reduce the amount of money
available for longer payback items. Staff believes that the ESPC method to bundling these
projects and capturing energy cost savings to fund replacements would be of benefit to the City.
5
Option 1 includes $.919 million in rapid payback items that are spread across many buildings
that will experience considerable cost savings due to economies of scale of engineering, bidding,
installing and managing these smaller individual items across many buildings that have a
significant collective savings to the City. These items include light bulbs, software, insulation
and water conservation plumbing improvements which are usually found in operations
maintenance budgets because the individual units have lower dollar values. The up-front number
appears large because all of the replacements would be done at a single time under one budget,
rather than annual break-fix replacement spread over time and multiple budgets. Staff
recommends that these items be included because they are highly inefficient and savings can be
readily achieved.
The $1.069 million value of the capital projects in Option 1 represents a little more than one
quarter of the total $3.816 million value of facility rehabilitation and repair projects listed in the
five-year window of the 2017-2021 Capital Improvements Program (CIP).
Option 2
Option 2 adds $1.191 million in cost by adding $237,342 for boiler replacement at the
Community Center and Water Treatment Plant, as well as the replacement of the JCRP field
lighting with LED retrofits. The field lighting totals $954,437.
Staff recommends adding two additional boilers which are not suffering major maintenance
expenses at this time, but are very near end-of-life and would provide cost savings from bundling
these with the other boiler projects.
Staff also recommends using this opportunity to address problematic field lighting at the Johnny
Cake Ridge complex. The lighting is highly inefficient, but has a longer payback because of the
limited seasonal use of the lights. Unlike the Arena, where a system failure could mean no
ability to maintain ice for an entire season, when a portion of the field lighting fails, it may still
allow some continued use of the fields under non-ideal conditions. Repairs and maintenance are
often quite expensive due to the equipment necessary to reach the lights. LED bulbs have much
longer life-spans, requiring less maintenance over time. Staff believes that there are advantages
to bundling this project into the Ameresco project and raising the level of playing field
conditions significantly for safety.
Option 3
The Ice Arena has an urgent problem that staff believes needs to be addressed in the very near
future. Staff recommends that inclusion in the Ameresco project may be the best way to
accomplish this project given the very short time frame available for construction. There are
very significant risks to a catastrophic system failure if this project is not addressed in the very
near future.
Staff welcomes further dialogue with the Council to help them understand the proposed projects
and various financing mechanisms.

Estimated Rebates: $45,754
Estimated Payback Period: 18.3 years
Benefits of Replacement in Proposed Ameresco Project:
This is largely an energy efficiency project . Staff believes there are economies of scale and cost
reductions to bundling multiple lighting projects together for engineering, bidding, and managing the
project. Lighting is an area where there is significant pay-back, allowing savings to be used to finance
other projects. Lighting is an important part of the work environment. Replacing lighting should be
done in large work areas as a whole. Replacing individual lamps with different types of light emission
and color temperature is likely to cause great annoyance to workers in the area.
Alternate Financing Options for Project:
This project is not in the CIP.
Liability or Risks Associated with Delayed Replacement:
There is little risk associated with delaying replacement other than cost due to inefficiency. Lighting
technology has changed rapidly in recent years and many of the existing lamps are inefficient and cost
the City more in operation costs than would be incurred using more efficient lamps. The existing lamps
also have shorter lifespans requiring more frequent change-out. This increases time spent on
maintenance and money spent on replacement parts.

Projected Annual Energy Savings: $2,273
Annual Non-energy Costs to Operate and Maintain in Current Condition: $0
Estimated Rebates: $3,054
Estimated Payback Period: 20.2 years
Benefits of Replacement in Proposed Ameresco Project:
This is largely an energy efficiency project, but also has significant impact on the arena operations. Staff
believes there are economies of scale and cost reductions to bundling multiple lighting projects together
for engineering, bidding, and managing the project. Because the changing of the lights over the ice floor
requires the use of a lift and a considerable minimum time period to get the lift into place, it is very
difficult for staff to find adequate downtime in the schedule to make necessary replacements. When
lights are out for an extended period of time, they take a toll on the ballasts, increasing the maintenance
cost and time required.
Alternate Financing Options for Project:
This project was in the Budget for 2017 from the Ice Arena and ISD 196 Funds in the amount of $35,000.
Liability or Risks Associated with Delayed Replacement:
The longer that the fluorescent bulbs are used, the more frequent the light replacement will need to be
and the greater the toll will be on the ballasts. Upgrading to longer-lasting LED bulbs will extend the life
of the existing ballasts.

Annual Non-energy Costs to Operate and Maintain in Current Condition: $5,729
Estimated Rebates: $8,096

Benefits of Replacement in Proposed Ameresco Project:
This is largely an energy efficiency project, but also has significant impact on the maintenance
operations. Staff believes there are economies of scale and cost reductions to bundling multiple lighting
projects together for engineering, bidding, and managing the project. The HPS lamps have met the end
of their useful lifespan and are into the replacement phase. Replacing them with more efficient LED
lamps will improve lighting, reduce maintenance costs, and reduce energy consumption.
Alternate Financing Options for Project:
This project was not in the CIP.
Liability or Risks Associated with Delayed Replacement:
Changing the lamps on a high volume roadway, like Cedar Avenue, is costly because of the impacts on
traffic and the safety risks to the workers. The workers require additional safety measures, traffic
controls, and lane closures to conduct their work. These measures not only have a direct impact on the
cost of the project, but also cause delays for traffic and thus have a cost to roadway users. Because LED
lamps have much longer useful lifespans, they require less frequent maintenance and lower the cost to
the City.

Benefits of Replacement in Proposed Ameresco Project:
This is an end-of-life replacement project and energy efficiency project. Staff believes there are
economies of scale and cost reductions to bundling multiple lighting projects together for engineering,
bidding, and managing the project. The Metal Halide lamps can be replaced with much more efficient
LED lighting. We have been replacing lamps for many years as they are long past their original lifespans.
In addition, the wiring in the poles has becomes susceptible of over time due to exposure to sunlight,
pole sway, and vermin activity. The project includes new wiring, new fixtures, and new lamps. The
project also includes new lamp controls that allow simplified remote control over the lights.
Alternate Financing Options for Project:
This project is in the CIP for 2019 from the General Fund in the amount of $500,000 (entire complex)
Liability or Risks Associated with Delayed Replacement:
The lights are grouped in banks. When an entire bank goes out, it is generally not possible to play
games. Because it requires a minimum of 30 minutes to re-engage a light bank, most outages result in
loss of play for an entire evening. The Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) makes recommendations
for safe field lighting conditions. These have changed dramatically since 1987. The field is far less lit
than the current recommendation. The softball fields have existing infield foot-candle output of 13 and
the outfield is at 5. The IES recommendation and proposed system would have an infield output of 30
and outfield output of 20. The new lights would better focus light on the fields to improve play and
reduce spillover onto neighboring areas.

loss of play for an entire evening. The Illuminating Engineering Society (IES) makes recommendations
for safe field lighting conditions. These have changed dramatically since 1987. The field is far less lit
than the current recommendation. The baseball field has existing infield foot-candle output of 22 and
the outfield is at 10. The IES recommendation and proposed system would have an infield output of 50
and outfield output of 30. The new lights would better focus light on the fields to improve play and
reduce spillover onto neighboring areas.

LED lighting. We have been replacing lamps for many years as they are long past their original lifespans.
In addition, the wiring in the poles has becomes susceptible of over time due to exposure to sunlight,
pole sway, and vermin activity. The project includes new wiring, new fixtures, and new lamps. The
project also includes new lamp controls that allow simplified remote control over the lights.
Alternate Financing Options for Project:
This project is in the CIP for 2019 from the General Fund in the amount of $500,000 (entire complex)

Annual Non-energy Costs to Operate and Maintain in Current Condition: $7,588
Estimated Rebates: $11,200
Estimated Payback Period: 26.5 years
Benefits of Replacement in Proposed Ameresco Project:
This is an end-of-life replacement project and energy efficiency project. Staff believes there are
economies of scale and cost reductions to bundling multiple boiler replacement projects together for
engineering, bidding, and managing the project. The design of the original two-unit system in the
construction of the Police Facility is inefficient because it requires the boilers to run year-round and run
at high water temperatures. This system was expanded with an additional boiler and additional pumps
and motors when the Municipal Center constructed as an addition in 2001. The pumps and motors are
failing at a high frequency requiring expensive repairs. In order to solve these problems for the long
term, the system needs to be re-engineered to work efficiently and use fewer pumps and motors. In
addition, newer boilers allow for much lower minimum water temperatures, so that running them year
round will cost less.
Alternate Financing Options for Project:
This project is in the CIP for 2020 from the Municipal Building Fund in the amount of $250,000.
Liability or Risks Associated with Delayed Replacement:
The boiler system has redundancy with the three boilers so that with a bit of time, heat can be restored.
The problem is that when the components go down, they can shut-down the boilers, no longer heating
the water in the system. The building has a distribution system with gaskets between the large pipes.
When the water in the distribution system cools, the gaskets shrink. When the gaskets shrink, they leak
water causing damage to the building and increasing costs. This project is moving up the priority list as
we have already experienced a boiler shut-down and water damage in the building this fall.

Estimated Payback Period: 43.3 years (long pay-back period due to short seasonal use)
Benefits of Replacement in Proposed Ameresco Project:
This is an end-of-life replacement project and energy efficiency project. Staff believes there are
economies of scale and cost reductions to bundling multiple boiler replacement projects together for
engineering, bidding, and managing the project. The existing environment around the boiler is highly
corrosive due to the presence of pool chemicals in the air. The corrosion has taken a toll on all of the
mechanical equipment associated with the boiler and has resulted in significant annual maintenance
costs. Part of this project includes improving air flow to the boiler and reducing exposure to the
corrosive chemicals in the air and using corrosive-resistant materials so that the new equipment will last
longer.
Alternate Financing Options for Project:
This project is in the CIP for 2021 from the General Fund in the amount of $230,000.
Liability or Risks Associated with Delayed Replacement:
The current system has reached end of life and is consuming significant resources for annual
maintenance. As the system is located in a highly corrosive environment, replacement is necessary in
the near future. The system contains two boilers and provides some redundancy. However, both
boilers are needed to keep the pool at a comfortable temperature when outside air temperatures are
cooler. If a comfortable water temperature can’t be maintained, staff would expect a significant
decrease in customers at the pool and could possibly force closure of the pool.

Benefits of Replacement in Proposed Ameresco Project:
This is an end-of-life replacement project and energy efficiency project. Staff believes there are
economies of scale and cost reductions to bundling multiple boiler replacement projects together for
engineering, bidding, and managing the project. The existing system is made up of eight individual
boilers to meet different demands for heating. All eight units are original to the building. The plan
would reduce the number of boiler units and replace them with higher efficiency units. There is benefit
from energy savings from more efficient units, but the existing system is not particularly inefficient.
Alternate Financing Options for Project:
This project is in the CIP for 2021 from the Municipal Building Fund in the amount of $250,000.
Liability or Risks Associated with Delayed Replacement:
The current system has reached end of life and is consuming significant resources for annual
maintenance. As the system is at the upper end of the expected useful lifespan, replacement is
necessary in the near future. The system is, however, robust with redundancy, so that catastrophic
failure is not a high risk.

Alternate Financing Options for Project:
This project was proposed as part of the operating budget but removed to be included as part of the
potential Ameresco project. Funding is available in the Water Fund.
Liability or Risks Associated with Delayed Replacement:
As the system is at the upper end of the expected useful lifespan, replacement is necessary in the near
future. This provides the primary heat for the Water Treatment Plant and failure of the boiler could lead
to freezing domestic water supply pipes and water damage. This component was not replaced as part of
the Plant expansion project several years ago.

Benefits of Replacement in Proposed Ameresco Project:
This is an end-of-life replacement project. Staff believes there are economies of scale and cost
reductions to bundling multiple boiler replacement projects together with the building controls project.
The existing software controls the heating and cooling systems of the Municipal Center and Central
Maintenance Facility main building. The software dates back to 2000, is no longer supported, and is
unable to interface with newer component interfaces. Replacement is necessary to prevent
catastrophic failure of the control system.
Alternate Financing Options for Project:
As this project is software, not equipment, it was not projected in the current CIP.
Liability or Risks Associated with Delayed Replacement:
The software is no longer supported and can’t be reloaded from a new installation. We are dependent
on a successful reload of the software from our network back-ups. However, we may not be able to
reload successfully if certain firmware pieces also fail. Some systems can be brought on-line manually,
but many individual area controls will be lost. The software jeopardizes the controls for the entire
Municipal Center and Central Maintenance main office buildings.

Benefits of Replacement in Proposed Ameresco Project:
This is an end-of-life replacement project. Staff believes there are economies of scale and cost
reductions to bundling multiple boiler and HVAC replacement projects together for engineering, bidding,
and managing the project. Further attempts to repair are not recommended due to the high cost of
repair versus the cost of replacement. The current unit does not provide efficient zoned heating
between the upper and lower levels. The City desires to have an engineer work to ensure that the new
unit will have zones that better serve the heating and cooling needs of the different areas of the
building. Ameresco is providing such engineering services for other parts of the proposed project.
Alternate Financing Options for Project:
This project was not identified in the CIP. If failure occurs, an emergency purchase would be required
from contingency funds.
Liability or Risks Associated with Delayed Replacement:
Failure of the unit could occur at any time. If the unit fails, there would be no heat to the occupied

Benefits of Replacement in Proposed Ameresco Project:
This is an end-of-life replacement project. Staff believes there are economies of scale and cost
reductions to bundling multiple boiler and chiller replacement projects together for engineering,
bidding, and managing the project. The current refrigeration plant uses R22 refrigerant. R22 production
set to cease in 2020, greatly increasing the cost to obtain R22. The current system does not have the
ability to report critical failures. The new system has the ability to alert staff when failure occurs.
Alternate Financing Options for Project:
This project is in the CIP for 2018 from the Arena Fund in the amount of $1,800,000. ISD 196 has
committed $1 million for its portion of the project.
Liability or Risks Associated with Delayed Replacement:
R22 costs about $35 per pound. The current system holds 5,000 pounds. If we experience a
catastrophic leak, it would cost $175,000 to buy new refrigerant. Other refrigerants are not
compatible with the existing system. Due to the age of the plant, it is very difficult to obtain parts. If
certain parts go out, there is a minimum of 6 weeks to get a replacement. Any significant repair will
need redesign and refit of some pipes. It wouldn’t be feasible to conduct repairs during the ice season
and would mean the loss of ice availability for the schools and other ice patrons. We have already
experienced one ice melt incident this year due to system failure.

Staff would like to discuss with the City C ouncil a partnership with A’BriTin Hospitality to
be the exclusive catering partner of Valleywood Golf C ourse.
A’BriTin Hospitality is a Farmington-based company that includes three distinct catering
companies under one roof. T hey are fully self-contained and would require no use of
Valleywood equipment or access to the kitchen. Valleywood will retain all rental fees (room
rental, audio visual, décor), alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage sales as well as 12% of all
food sales through the caterer.
Under the umbrella of A'BriTin Hospitality, three distinct levels of catering are available:
- T his Little Piggy C atering is a cost conscious concept mainly doing BBQ style food and
casual set ups.
- A pples 2 Apples Catering is a farm-to-table concept with mid-priced dining options for all
types of events.
- Distinctive C atering is a premium concept targeted towards higher-end weddings and
parties.
B AC K G RO UND :
Valleywood staff has been actively working to solve the food service challenges associated
with the demand for events in the clubhouse and the extremely limited supply of qualified
cooks and chefs to work in a variable hour capacity. After attempting and failing to attract
qualified cooks for the last three years we have been left to reduce the number of events in
the clubhouse. Hoping to drive more event business to Valleywood, we began researching
outside caterers and companies to serve as our potential partners. Over a dozen caterers
were contacted to gauge their interest in providing food service at Valleywood.
While virtually all the caterers we contacted would be interested in providing their services
to Valleywood clientele, and most would provide a 10-12% commission on food sales under
an exclusive food agreement, their requirement for providing alcoholic beverages and limited
catering choices under a singular brand would not provide enough options to the various
clientele Valleywood services. Staff was pleased to find A’BriTin Hospitality which offers
three unique brands within their company. We are also impressed that they want to assist in
marketing Valleywood to attract more events to the facility.
By making them the exclusive event caterer at Valleywood, they are willing to provide (in
addition to the 12% commission) a guarantee of availability 365 day per year, online access
to their catering schedules, advertising and promotion of our facility at the various food and
wedding shows they attend, as well as including us in their print, website and social media
advertising campaigns.
T his partnership would be defined in a two-year agreement which would allow both parties a
reasonable period of time to assess the merits of the partnership. G iven the long lead time
associated with booking certain events (i.e., weddings), two years is deemed to be a
reasonable amount of time to determine the success of the partnership.
Staff is excited by the prospect of working with A 'BriTin Hospitality to better serve our
customers, to improve the financial performance of the facility and to help raise the visibility
of Valleywood as a wonderful place to hold special events.
We look forward to further discussing this idea with the C ity C ouncil at the J anuary 11
meeting. If the C ouncil is amendable to moving in this direction, staff would then work with
A'BriTin Hospitality and the C ity Attorney's office to prepare the necessary agreement which
would be brought back for formal Council approval at an upcoming meeting.

2018 Catering Discussion
Valleywood F & B Current
State
Currently, Valleywood food & beverage
employs one full-time food & beverage
coordinator. As such, we have had to look
into alternative options to operating the bar,
restaurant & full-service banquet room. The
following plan utilizes our current abilities
with staff and equipment while optimizing
banquet room use by allowing an exclusive
caterer into our venue.
1/11/2018

Valleywood F & B How we got here
While we were growing the banquet operations in
2013 & 2014, the difficulty in attracting qualified
seasonal staff in the last few years has restricted
both the quantity and quality of events
Valleywood is capable of hosting.
Valleywood F & B Plan for 2018
To allow for more use of the banquet room and more
revenue, it is proposed to allow an exclusive caterer
(partner) into our facility for food service only for all
non-golf events & golf events greater than 75 guests.
Advantages
•Valleywood continues to operate bar (Alcohol Services) to
generate revenue
•Elimination of positions (Banquet cooks, Banquet servers)
•Decrease in required tracking & reporting
•Decrease in inventory on hand
•If exclusive, some companies offer a percentage of their food
revenue to the venue

Valleywood F & B Catering Operations
After discussions with CRAVE to run the entire F & B
operation fell through, Valleywood contacted a
few catering operations including Surdyk’s
Catering, Deco Catering & CRAFT Mobile Catering.
While all the companies we spoke with were
interested in the catering opportunities at
Valleywood, we found a company that is
interested more in a business partnership.
Valleywood also spoke with a
hospitality company only 10 miles
away from the golf course. A’BriTin
Hospitality is home to 3 distinct
catering companies and emphasizes
partnering and promotion of their
exclusive venues to grow both
businesses while providing great
service to their clients.

Staff is recommending closure of the Teen C enter site in J anuary and continuing, as a pilot
project, teen operations at Redwood through the summer of 2018.
B AC K G RO UND :
T he Teen C enter located in J ohnny Cake Ridge Park was the result of a successful bond
referendum in 1997. T he site was chosen because it is geographically located near the center
of the city. Upon opening, there was positive community support, the attendance numbers
were good and participation was high. As the years have gone by, numbers have dwindled.
Reasons for this could include;
1. Land development design doesn’t promote ease of facility access. T he location is not
in a neighborhood and requires rides to get to,
2. Less access to distribute promotional information within the area schools,
3. Teens have more choices when it comes to their free time, more technology available
in their own homes, they may be working, and there are more options for after school
activities, etc.
Staff has heard through the years that the teens on the west side of town would enjoy a place
to hang out, but crossing multi-lane highways to get to J ohnny C ake Ridge Park across town
is not an option. T hrough staff discussions with teens, school staff and parents, the idea of
opening an additional site for teens on the west side of the city was proposed. Redwood
Community C enter presented itself as a good option for a pilot program. T here is a high
density of teens and the neighborhood is trending toward younger families.
At the beginning of this year staff evaluated teen operations taking into account expenditures,
staffing levels, and user impact. At the March Parks and Recreation Advisory C ommittee
Meeting the idea of relocating the teen center drop in site to Redwood C ommunity Center
was introduced. T he committee voted favorably to moving the majority of Teen Center
operations to the Redwood C ommunity C enter. Operating hours at the Teen Center were
adjusted to one day per week (T hursdays) and Redwood Community C enter was opened as
a teen drop in site Monday through Saturday.
T he topic was again discussed in November, 2017. At this meeting the committee
recommended repurposing of the Teen C enter into a rentable and programmable space, and to
concentrate teen programming at Redwood. Staff agreed with the recommendation and,
in order to not entirely turn away the few participants that had been visiting the Teen Center,
continued teen recreation activities there one day per week.
Prior to 2017, an hourly head count was used to track attendance. Example – if two teens
stayed for five hours, they would be counted each hour, as a total of ten for the day. In 2017
the methodology was changed to a per visit count. Example – two teens stayed for five hours,
they are counted as a total of two for the day. T his gives a better idea of how many teens we
are actually serving. T he following charts show the total visitors for the month.

T EEN C EN T ER 2015-2017 & RED WO O D 2017
MO N T HLY VIS ITO R C O MPA RISO N
T here are several options to proceed with teen programming;
• Resume multi-day schedule at the Teen Center and close Redwood.
T he Teen C enter is currently open on T hursdays. T here has been a small group that has
been attending. We do not know if this group would attend more days if it were open or
if they make a point to attend on T hursdays.
T he numbers at Redwood started out strong and interest was high. Numbers have fallen
off a bit which could be due to weather, holidays or some other cause. Staff is trying to
determine the cause and get the numbers back up.
• Repurpose the Teen C enter into a rentable and programmable space and
concentrate teen programming at Redwood.
T he staff at Redwood sees the teens as more engaged and excited about this location.
Daily attendance numbers were steady and special events have had good participation.
Parents are very supportive of their kids having this opportunity. Staff would welcome
the opportunity to make Redwood a viable option and a facility that can make a
difference in the lives of the kids who make use of the facility.
Utilizing the Teen Center building as a rentable/programmable space would allow Parks
and Recreation staff to expand recreation program offerings as well as provide meeting
and event rental space for the general public.
• Continue to operate one day per week at Teen Center and six days per week at
Redwood.
T his option would continue to serve both sides of town but would make scheduling
staff difficult in the long term. It also spreads amenities (movies, video games, air
hockey tables, etc.) across two locations so neither location is at full strength.
• Discontinue prov iding a teen drop in facility, but offer teen programs.
While this option would save the C ity money, it doesn’t provide the informal drop in
opportunities of a fun, safe, and welcoming place for teens to gather. T he staff feels that
the renewed energy and audience at Redwood is exciting and worth continuing to try
and make it a great facility. Participation numbers started steady and teens have been
engaged in activities. It has become a safe and enjoyable place for kids to hang out.
Staff would recommend closing the Teen C enter site in J anuary and continuing teen
operations at Redwood, as a pilot program, through the summer of 2018. T his will allow us
to evaluate numbers during school and during the summer when attendance has been
historically higher. Attendance numbers can be reviewed in September and a decision about
the future of teen programming and the drop in center at Redwood can be made at that time.

based on Dakota C ounty’s FY 2017 allocation of $1,780,366 and is an estimate only for
planning purposes. It should not be considered to be the final allocation for A pple Valley. It
is subject to change depending on the final amount that is allocated to Dakota C ounty by the
Department of Housing and Urban Development for the 2018 program year, which starts J uly
1, 2018. Final amounts will be provided as soon as the final C D BG allocation amounts are
determined.
Over the years, the C ity’s C D BG allocation has been used for a variety of projects, with the
primary use of funding for single-family residential housing rehabilitation. Staff is
recommending that the majority of the C ity’s 2018 allocation be dedicated for the home
improvement program. T his program provides no interest deferred loans to low and moderate
income homeowners for home repairs and improvements. T he maximum loan amount is
$25,000. T his program has typically provided loans to 5 to 6 homeowners for home
improvements each year and staff is confident that Apple Valley residents will continue to
take advantage of this program.
Finally, staff is recommending the dedication of $18,000 of the proposed 2018 fiscal year
allocation to D A RT S for their Outdoor C hore Service, Home Repair and Homemaking
Service programs. T he Outdoor Chore Service program assists older residents with heavy
chores and outdoor yard work such as raking leaves; snow shoveling, lawn mowing, cleaning
gutters, and cleaning garages and basements. T he Home Repair Program is a handyperson
service for older homeowners who need assistance with household tasks that aren't cleaning
in nature, such as replacing bath and kitchen fixtures or lights, installing a handrail, or
replacing light bulbs that require standing on a ladder. T his will be a new service for our
residents that will be funded with our C D BG allocation. And finally, the Homemaking
Service program assists seniors with housekeeping, laundry, and other indoor chores.
Services may also include grocery shopping and errands. In fiscal year 2016, D A RT S
assisted 58 older homeowners with indoor and outdoor home maintenance chores and in the
first quarter of fiscal year 2017, 18 homeowners have been helped. T he recommended
amount will allow D A RT S to continue to provide their outdoor chore and homemaking
services; as well offer the home repair services to more elderly households in the community
in fiscal year 2018.
B AC K G RO UND :
In 1984, Federal C D BG funds became available to Dakota C ounty on an entitlement basis.
T hese funds must be used primarily for programs that benefit either disadvantaged or low-
and moderate-income persons (the elderly are categorized as “disadvantaged”). Other eligible
uses are planning studies (up to 20% of annual fund expenditures) or projects addressing
“imminent threats to health and safety” (rarely used).
For fund allocation purposes, Dakota County is divided into four Community Development
Districts, with each district containing communities of similar characteristics and needs.
Apple Valley is in District #3, which also contains the cities of Burnsville and Eagan. Each
year, the total amount of C D BG funds is divided up among the four districts based on a
formula of population and numbers of low-income households. Past use of funds has ranged
from joint programs effective in all three cities, to individual city programs allocated on a pro
rata share of yearly fund allocations (based on population), and to individual city programs
using the full or “lion’s share” amount of the annual district allocations on a rotating basis.
Currently, the funds are allocated on a pro rata basis to each individual city, with the C D A
designated as the program administrator.

On March 8, 2017, at 11:18 P M, officers responded to a report of a burglary in progress at a
restaurant in Apple Valley. Mr. Cave lives behind the building. He noticed a man loitering
and thought it was suspicious knowing the restaurant had been closed for over an hour. Mr.
Cave watched the suspect for several minutes and observed him tampering with a security
flood light and the back door of the restaurant. Mr. C ave called 911 and relayed information
about the suspect's activity and provided a detailed description. He stayed on the line and
continued to monitor the suspect until officers arrived. When officers arrived, they found the
suspect dressed in clothing that matched Mr. C ave's description. He had concealed his face
and was wearing thin gloves to conceal fingerprints and shoe covers to conceal his
footprints. He would have been difficult to identify later on. When officers arrested the
suspect, they found unprescribed Morphine and Oxycodone pills in his possession. Officers
jailed the suspect for burglary, possession of burglary tools, and possession of a controlled
substance.
Because of Mr. C ave's awareness and willingness to get involved, he was instrumental in
preventing a burglary from occurring and the apprehension of the suspect. Mr. C ave is an
outstanding example of the benefits of a solid police-community partnership like the A pple
Valley Police Department has with our community.

Vote shall be by roll call with the Mayor casting the first vote and the Council
alternating from right to left of the Mayor, starting with the member to the right of
the Mayor.
5. If the number of nominations is greater than the number of positions to be filled, a
written roster will be prepared listing the nominees and the Council shall proceed in

Councilmembers shall be stricken by the City Clerk from the succeeding round
and shall no longer appear as a name(s) to be considered by the Council;

among all the names appearing on the round, the Council, in writing shall
again select until one or more names have been stricken; provided, however,
that if such a situation exists, the Council shall not reselect more than three
times. In such a situation, the process shall end. Otherwise, the process shall
end when only one name remains.
d) After the process has ended, a motion to make the appointment shall be in
order. The motion shall be in the form of: "I move to appoint _______________
to the position of _________________.” Vote shall be by roll call with the
Mayor casting the first vote and the Council alternating from right to left of
