A. City's 50th Anniversary Celebration
Community Development Director Bruce Nordquist led the discussion on the City's 50th
Anniversary Celebration and updated the Committee on the logo developed with G.R. Promotions.
Chair Schwartz asked where the idea of the pin came from because she thought the Urban Affairs
Committee was to only design a logo.

Mr. Nordquist commented that the logo can be used in gold celebrating the 50 years and from there
it became a pin. He added that the Mayor was thrilled to see the pin design and that Council was
happy to see the "EST. 1969".
Chair Schwartz asked if the City Council really wants a pin.
Mr. Nordquist said they want a visual for the 50 years and still be able to use it.
Mr. Vegter replied that he thinks the pin can be used after the celebration.
Mr. Nordquist said the pin would come with a story card. The story card will talk about a calendar
of events and the decisions made in 1969 and the City has grown.
Mr. Adamini commented that the City has always had pins manufactured and that it makes sense to
use them. The pins were given out to scouting groups, volunteers and employees for recognition.
Ms. Blake asked if once a pin is given out is there an encouragement for people to continue to wear
them.
Mr. Nordquist replied that the City Council does wear pins to events.
Mr. Mahlum said it started out to have a logo and somehow the pin has taken priority. He said it
defeated the purpose of the logo and thought the logo was to represent the 50 years and felt it does
not accomplish what was meant to be.
Mr. Adamini asked if it was necessary to remove the "1969".
Mr. Nordquist said the City Council wants the pin to be timeless.
Mr. Vegter asked how big the story card was to be.
Mr. Nordquist said it is the size of a small card.
Ms. Breuer commented she believes that the City Council has changed the Urban Affair's direction.
Mr. Mahlum asked if there could be both a logo and a pin.
Mr. Vegter said he understands that the City Council wants to use the pin beyond the year of 2019.
Chair Schwartz asked if the intent was to permanently change the City logo.
Mr. Nordquist replied that the City logo remains unchanged and the pin seems to achieve
everything the Committee tried to do.

Discussion led to the "EST." on the pin and if it had different meanings. Ms. Breuer asked that it go
on record that the Committee did not think the "EST." was correct.
MOTION: Vegter moved, seconded by Adamini recommending Community Development
Director Bruce Nordquist bring on board a communications consultant in November
to develop and facilitate the communication plan for the 2019 Celebration. Ayes - 6
- Nays - 0.
Chair Schwartz asked how much time is needed for the consultant.
Mr. Nordquist answered that 15 — 20 hours a month would be well positioned for the consultant.
Mr. Vegter suggested it should be left up to Mr. Nordquist how he utilizes the consultant's time.
5. OTHER BUSINESS
A. Discuss Animal Ordinance — Chickens
Mr. Nordquist said there would be an item on the October 25, 2018, City Council consent agenda
directing the Urban Affairs Advisory Committee to review and provide recommendations on the
present animal control ordinance and the keeping of chickens. He said chickens are considered
farm poultry and not residential animals. He added the City had been contacted by an Apple Valley
chicken group with interest in allowing chickens. He said he understands that in June 2018 the
Urbans Affairs Advisory Committee did not encourage a change to the ordinance.
Chair Schwartz suggested if City Council does direct the animal ordinance related to chickens to
come back to the Committee that professional services from the University of Minnesota Extension
Services attend and advised there should be some education for those residents who want to raise
chickens.
6. Adjourn
Hearing no further comments from the Urban Affairs Advisory Committee, Chair Schwartz asked
for a motion to adjourn.
MOTION: Mahlum moved, seconded by Blake to adjourn the meeting at 7:15 p.m. Ayes - 6 -

In 2010, the City Council passed Ordinance 880 (attached), which clarified the establishment,
terms, and organization of committees. It also passed resolution 2010-43 (attached), which
established the purpose, terms, and duties of the UAC. All Committees need to elect
officers for a period of one year. Because the Committee has not met since October 2018, it
must elect officers.

2018 ANNUAL REPORT
Urban Affairs
The role of the Urban Affairs Advisory Committee is to make recommendations to the City
Council on a variety of ad hoc topics, as assigned. In 2018, there were 6 Urban Affairs Advisory
Committee meetings held that consisted of a recommendation to the City Council.

• Linda Blake — appointed 5-10-18
• Sandy Breuer, Secretary
• Walton Mahlum
• Pamela Sohlberg
• John Vegter
50th Golden Anniversary Celebration
The Urban Affairs Advisory Committee was appointed by the City Council to research and plan
the 50th Golden Anniversary Celebration. The Committee reviewed and discussed the adopted
pin and banner now in use which has been well received. Activities throughout the calendar
year for 2019 were discussed. The Committee encouraged "keeping it simple" and leveraging a
50th emphasis to many of the planned events the City offers throughout the year.
Attached as part of the report are the pin, banner and bus wrap planned for 2019 as a result of
Committee's discussion and direction to staff.
Planning for the 2020 Census
Cities across the County have been tasked with assisting the Census Bureau to ensure that all
persons are counted. Staff met with the Regional Census Director to learn about the best
practices for establishing a "Complete Count Committee". On June 28, 2018, the City Council
directed the Urban Affairs Advisory Committee to be the "Complete Count Committee" for the
2020 Census.
The Census is an important tool for the City that becomes the basis for funding and policy
decisions. The Census Bureau has found that involving local partners is essential to ensure that
the process is successful. The "Complete Count Committee" is the leader of local involvement
with the goal of achieving high participation rates and reaching lower responding census tracts.
The Census Bureau has tasked all cities to create a "Complete Count Committee" that
facilitates encouraging Census participation. When directed to do so, the Urban Affairs Advisory
Committee will host representatives from organizations such as faith based organizations,
businesses, housing groups, the Chamber of Commerce, and educational institutions. Each of
these groups will be asked to offer ways they can assist the Committee to best reach their
constituent members.
Census Day is April 1, 2020. In 2019, "Complete Count Committees" will be actively working to
encourage response within their community. By establishing the Committee at this time, and
providing the background information, the City of Apple Valley will be ready to assist with
outreach within the Community. Findings and recommendations from the Urban Affairs
Advisory Committee will be presented to the City Council, initially in the annual report from 2018
and throughout 2019 as needed.

Receive 2020 Census Update for Complete Count Committee
Staff Contact:
Alex Sharpe, Planner and Economic Development Spec.
Department / Division:
Community Development Department
ACTION REQUESTED:
Receive information and discuss next steps for the 2020 Census.
SUMMARY:
On June 28, 2018 the City Council appointed the Urban Affairs Committee to be the City of
Apple Valley's Complete Count Committee (CCC). The CCC is the City's local body
charged with ensuring an accurate count of all residents within the City.
This is an important undertaking, which has recently been emphasized by Govenor Walz at
the State Capitol. The 2020 Census is very important for Minnesota, at stake is 15 billion a
year in federal funding, a seat in the House of Representatives, and an Electoral College
vote. Minnesota is a growing state and as you can see in the attachment, Apple Valley's
growth is important to capture.
The City has invited the pastors and staff of major congregations to join the CCC to learn
about the importance of the 2020 Census, and how they can reach out to their parishioners to
assist in a complete count. The City's religious institutions are an important connection to the
community as they have a direct connection to diverse populations that government does not
always have connections with.
The City of Apple Valley has had one of the highest census response rates in the nation in
both 2000, and 2010. This is a trend we hope to continue with an emphasis to connect with
under performing census blocks. Connecting with the ministerial community is an important
step to ensuring that all Apple Valley residents are counted.
BACKGROUND:
Census Day is April 1, 2020. In early 2019 "Complete Count Committees" will be actively
working to encourage response within their community. Apple Valley was one of the first
communities to commit to, and establish a Complete Count Committee and is well prepared
to being outreach within the community. A first step is connecting with the ministerial
community. Staff is seeking input from the Committee for additional steps.
The Metropolitan Council's latest population estimates for Apple Valley are attached.
