Councilmember Skogquist thanked Ms. George for her wonderful leadership and said QCTV was fiscally responsible and thanked staff for their work to meet the changing need through social media and sharing stories.

He shared that on January 21, 2024, at approximately 9:30 p.m., Anoka patrol officers were dispatched to the Anoka Ice Arena for a male who collapsed. Shortly after, it was reported that CPR was being done. Dispatch was also made aware that the bystanders had retrieved and were using one of the AEDs from the facility. Upon arrival of officers, bystanders were still providing CPR after shocking the victim once. Officers took over medical care and the male began breathing on his own. Officers checked the victim’s pulse and found that he now had a strong pulse. Officers continued care until the arrival of Allina paramedic who took over the scene. At this point the victim was conscious and talking before being transported to the hospital. The three bystanders provided CPR and AED use before the arrival officers. These bystanders did exactly what we teach in our CPR classes. Even with the swift response from out officers, the outcome could have been gravely different had the bystanders not taken the quick action they did. He stated because of their quick thinking, courage and willingness to go to the aid of another in distress, Mr. Longberg, Mr. Manthey, and Mr. Pender certainly saved life of another and for their heroic actions, they were being awarded the Anoka Police Civilian Service Award for Life Saving. Tim Kelsey, Anoka, shared what he experienced and thanked everyone for their work to save his life that day, then encouraged everyone to be trained in AED use and chest compressions which resulted in allowing him to continue to enjoy his life and family. A round of applause was offered by all present. Police Chief Eric Peterson said he was pleased this event went so well and encouraged everyone to take part in CPR and AED classes as their actions could save a life. Councilmember Weaver shared how Mr. Kelsey has been active in Waterfowl for Warriors for 13 years and thanked everyone for their work that day saving his life. Councilmember Skogquist commented how people never know if they’re the type of person to help when needed and thanked everyone involved for stepping up that day. 4.3 Presentation; Allina Heart Safe Community Designation. Chief Peterson shared that in 2016 the City Council passed a resolution to support the City of Anoka being designated as a Heart Safe Community. This designation aims to increase survival rates of sudden cardiac arrest by helping communities assess their preparedness for cardiac emergencies and finding gaps where improvements can be made. Heart Safe Designation is reached by acquiring April 1, 2024 (Regular) Page 4 of 14 points or ‘heartbeats’ based on population size. Heartbeats are given for community awareness programs, CPR training, AED placement and mapping, access to rapid emergency services and progressive hospital systems, and development of community heart healthy activities. The Anoka Police and Anoka-Champlin Fire Departments worked jointly to accomplish the City of Anoka being designated a Heart Safe Community. All criteria were met and in May of 2023 the City of Anoka received the designation of being Heart Safe Community. In doing so, it has not only made our first responders, but also our community members, better prepared to handle cardiac emergencies. Renee Hamdorf is the Heart Safe Communities Coordinator representing Allina Health will present to the City Council the City of Anoka the designation of being a Heart Safe Community. Officer Austin Orrin further shared about this important designation and criteria that included AED mapping, access to services, and work with the Anoka- Champlin Fire Department to receive this designation, adding first responders and the community will now be better prepared to respond if needed. Renee Hanford, Allina, shared Mr. Kelcey was proof of how Heart Safe communities work then shared how sudden cardiac arrest occurs 350,000 each year in this country and how early intervention before responders arrive was critical. She said she was proud to present this award to Anoka. Dr. Charles Licht, EMS Director of Allina, said this effort began 20 years and was pleased to see the progress, adding sudden cardiac arrest killed more people than lung and breast cancer combined. He shared the availability of a donated AED for Anoka and encouraged anyone to contact them to obtain one. Mayor Rice spoke about the survival rates before and after AEDs and what an effective tool this was if used and the importance of knowing where they are located in buildings. Dr. Licht spoke about Take Heart America survey that showed a more than doubled survival rate since 2010 that included bystanders, first responders, and hospital personnel as a team. Mayor Rice accepted the plaque on behalf of the City. A round of applause was offered by all in attendance. The Council took a brief recess. Councilmember Weaver asked for an update on 5th Avenue speeding concerns. Chief Peterson shared work to enforce speeding on 5th Avenue, specifically during rush hour, which was key. He said staff was also working to consider Safe Routes to Schools options as a possibility. April 1, 2024 (Regular) Page 5 of 14 Councilmember Weaver said the Safe Routes to Schools would allow for a speed indicator on 5th Avenue which would be great. Assistant City Ben Nelson said Safe Routes to Schools wouldn’t apply to this route as it was an Anoka County road but that staff was working on dynamic speed signs and additional signage now to help address speeding.

ACTED UPON AFTER PUBLIC HEARING 9.2 RES/Approving a Quit Claim Deed; 1900 South Ferry Street. RESOLUTION HRA Executive Director Darin Berger shared a background report stating the City of Anoka Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA) purchased and demolished the rental property that had been foreclosed upon at this address in 2011 for $235,000. This was part of a concerted effort to clean up the Ferry Street corridor. The City further improved the City’s gateway by buying the Riverplace Counseling Center properties and moving that organization to Highway 10. Since that time, the HRA has held this property in anticipation of the City of Anoka implementing their West Rum River Trail as part of the Riverwalk Plan. The City was recently notified of a partially awarded grant for $200,000, making this plan more of a reality. On March 4, Council voted 4-0 to award a contract to Sunram Construction for the base bid amount and all 5 alternate bid options. Funding for the budget gap will come from an internal loan from AMU reserves – paid back through the levy. Construction will include all main trail and decorative concrete elements that help build cohesion and connection to downtown and the existing Rum River Trail behind City Hall, which brings elements to Ferry Street. The following additional language has been added to ensure this happens: “For park- related purposes only with said use restriction lasting for a period of twenty (20) years from the filing of this deed.” Motion by Councilmember Scott, seconded by Councilmember Skogquist, to adopt a resolution approving a quit claim deed, 1900 South Ferry Street. Upon a roll call vote: Mayor Rice, Councilmembers Scott, Skogquist, Weaver, and Wesp voted in favor. Motion carried. Mayor Rice noted the HRA conducted many programs and encouraged the community to explore them. Councilmember Weaver thanked the HRA for the sale price of $1 for this parcel which could have been much larger and will result in a great improvement to this City through their investment. 9.3 RES/2024 Street Renewal Project – Franklin Area Phase II; Approve Bids and Award a Construction Project. RESOLUTION April 1, 2024 (Regular) Page 8 of 14 Assistant City Engineer Ben Nelson shared a background report stating on February 5, 2024, City Council approved the construction plans & specifications, authorized advertisement for bid, and set a bid date for the 2024 Street Renewal Project - Franklin Area Phase II. The Street Renewal Program involves the total reconstruction of the roads, including the replacement of the concrete curb and gutters, bituminous pavement, sidewalks, street lights, driveways, sanitary sewer, watermain, service laterals, storm sewer, electrical components, and boulevard restoration/landscaping. The roads that are included in the 2024 Street Renewal Project – Franklin Area Phase II. The 2024 SRP project is approximately 0.87 miles of full reconstruction, finishing the renewal of the Franklin Area neighborhood. He shared the total project cost of $2,344,500, funding options, and the schedule and said the bid was less than budgeted. Councilmember Weaver confirmed the map was not showing closure of West Main Street. Councilmember Skogquist said he was pleased to see the bids were under budget then asked about the street improvement funds and remaining bonding amounts. Mr. Nelson said he will follow up but noted bonding was covering this project as well as the 2023 projects and included sufficient funding if bids had been higher. Motion by Councilmember Skogquist, seconded by Councilmember Scott, to adopt a resolution for the 2024 Street Renewal Project – Franklin Area Phase II; Approve Bids and Award a Construction Contract. Councilmember Scott said he was pleased to see this project occur as it was a long time coming for this neighborhood and would be done before Anoka Halloween events. Upon a roll call vote: Mayor Rice, Councilmembers Scott, Skogquist, Weaver, and Wesp voted in favor. Motion carried. 9.4 RES/Rum River Woodbury House Riverbank Stabilization Project; Approve Plans and Specification, Authorize Advertisement for Bid and Set a Bid Date. RESOLUTION Mr. Nelson shared a background report stating at the December 16, 2021, Minnesota Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) Board Meeting, the Board made a motion to allocate the FY2022 Clean Water Competitive Grants and the City of Anoka was awarded $1,008,820 from this grant that fully funded the Rum River Woodbury House Riverbank Stabilization Project. The deadline for completing work with the grant funds is December 31, 2024. This past February, the City requested a grant extension and on March 14, 2024, BWSR approved the grant amendment request. The new deadline for completing work is December 31, 2025. On February 22, 2022, City Council adopted a resolution April 1, 2024 (Regular) Page 9 of 14 approving a Clean Water Fund Grant Agreement (Grant Agreement #C22-7034), ordering the project and authorized the preparation of plans and specifications for the Rum River Woodbury House Riverbank Stabilization Project. At the December 11, 2023 work session meeting, staff provided council an update on the project status that included the architectural history findings, site access alternatives, current design, bank stabilization methods, regulatory permitting, and an updated project schedule. He shared the final riverbank stabilization design in detail and said After the work is completed, the riverbank will be replanted with a variety of native grasses, shrubs, and native trees within the TRM and erosion control blanket. Vegetated riprap will be planted with live stakes (willow cuttings) and bioengineering of live plant material (i.e. willow cuttings stakes, cedar revetment, etc.) will be planted within the TMP to provide additional slope stabilization and erosion control. He reviewed the plans, bid process, and bid date then spoke about the financial impact of $253,000 with the City’s local contribution to the 25% grant match. He outlined the schedule and said after the work is completed, the riverbank will be replanted with a variety of native grasses, shrubs, and native trees within the TRM and erosion control blanket. Vegetated riprap will be planted with live stakes (willow cuttings) and bioengineering of live plant material (i.e. willow cuttings stakes, cedar revetment, etc.) will be planted within the TMP to provide additional slope stabilization and erosion control. Councilmember Weaver noted this was the most historic property in Anoka and stressed the importance to retain this site and was pleased to see care included for the stone trail and arch bridge but suggested including language in the resolution to ensure final completion of these features and elements to recognize this historical trail. He said he was pleased to see the project would begin in November after the boating season but said sand will need to be removed from the causeway to avoid obstruction in the river next year. Mr. Nelson said the DNR permit requires all material in the causeway to be removed. Councilmember Skogquist asked about proposed language to be included regarding the restoration of historic stonework. Mr. Lee suggested the language be included instead in the specifications. Mr. Nelson said staff will ensure language is added to the project specifications when the contract is awarded. Motion by Councilmember Scott, seconded by Councilmember Weaver, to adopt a resolution for the Rum River Woodbury House Riverbank Stabilization Project; Approve Plans & Specifications, Authorize Advertisement for Bid, and Set Bid Date as Amended to Include Additional Language Regarding Preservation of the Historic Trail. April 1, 2024 (Regular) Page 10 of 14 Upon a roll call vote: Mayor Rice, Councilmembers Scott, Skogquist, Weaver, and Wesp voted in favor. Motion carried. 9.5 RES/Approving Social District Maintenance Management Plan 2024. RESOLUTION Community Development Director Doug Borglund shared a background report stating during the 2022 Minnesota Legislative Session as part of the Omnibus Liquor Bill that was signed into law. The Liquor Bill included a special provision only for the City of Anoka enabling the City to establish something called a “Social District”. A “Social District” is specific area, which allows people to purchase and drink beer, wine, or a cocktail from a licensed business and walk through a defined area of the city including public areas such as sidewalk or street or participate in a district event/activity. Adoption of Social District regulations enables the City of Anoka to issue a Social District license to any holder of an on- sale liquor license who’s on-sale premises within or contiguous with the premises of the Social District. As well, the City of Anoka must establish management and maintenance plans for the Social District and post these plans, along with a rendering of the boundaries of the social district and days and hours during which alcoholic beverages may be consumed in the District, on the website for the City of Anoka. The Social District must be maintained in a manner that protects the health and safety of the general public. He reviewed the amended 2024 Social District Managements and Maintenance Plan in detail that included one change to note that expanded the district to the south side of East Main Street. Councilmember Weaver spoke about the businesses’ input regarding participation and suggested a hybrid option to accommodate their wishes. Mr. Borglund spoke about work to keep businesses involved throughout this process and how one business shared a lot of concern which resulted in the poll which was helpful. Councilmember Skogquist said he was more supportive of Map 2 as it was important to be clear about the boundaries then suggested trying to include logical locations such as the Bridge Square parking area and tunnel as well. He said if businesses are concerned they can post individual signage that they are not participating in the social district, adding the less confusion the better and felt the half block between Main Street and Monroe Street was most logical. Councilmember Weaver said he would like to see us react when needed so the Police Department has all the tools for effective and aggressive enforcement regarding cups and cans littering and suggested a tiered license system especially since district ends at 10:00 p.m. He said this district was a privilege for the City and bar owners to create an entertainment district but there needs to be personal responsibility by owners to address trash. April 1, 2024 (Regular) Page 11 of 14 Councilmember Scott agreed this was a benefit we were providing and there were natural sip and stroll areas along the river and supported expanding the map to include the tunnel to safely cross Main Street. Chief Peterson agreed policing the district and having tools to identify and address gross infractions by owners will be important but added policing the entire area will be very difficult as there will always be someone who doesn’t abide by the rules and leave the social district with cups. Councilmember Weaver agreed but said the result is having Public Works clean the lots which is a huge cost and burden and prevents other City work and will have to be addressed with the owners to maintain a positive visual impact in the community. Mayor Rice said the responsibility should fall on door security at establishments. Councilmember Scott said adequate trash receptacles need to also be available and picked up regularly. Mr. Borglund shared the trash management plan will include 20 receptacles. Mr. Lee said Council will be reviewing liquor licenses and considering possible increases to match neighboring cities and is scheduled for mid-summer to better understand impacts and costs of the district. Councilmember Skogquist said it will be important to monitor beverages coming into the area and other factors that could be tied to a tiered licensing system, adding we will have a whole year to monitor and adjust. Motion by Councilmember Skogquist, seconded by Councilmember Scott, to adopt a resolution approving Social District Maintenance and Management Plan 2024, with the boundary extensions down for 2nd and 3rd and Bridge Square parking area and tunnel access south of Main Street as outlined in Map 2. Mayor Rice said he supported using the tunnel and signage to safely cross Main Street. Upon a roll call vote: Mayor Rice, Councilmembers Scott, Skogquist, and Weaver voted in favor. Councilmember Wesp voted nay. Motion carried. 9.6 RES/Supporting Retention of City Zoning Authority. RESOLUTION Mr. Borglund shared a background report stating as the City Council is aware there have been a number of bills circulating in the legislative process this year in April 1, 2024 (Regular) Page 12 of 14 St. Paul at the State Capitol. Many of the bills that have been proposed take stock in advancing efforts to increase production of affordable housing supply and construction. Many of these proposed preemption bills are focused on addressing affordable housing both rental and ownership across the State and would preempt local zoning and land use regulations. The City of Anoka as a community and its housing stock is already near 50% rental and 80% of its housing stock is already affordable. Anoka has small lots already. Anoka has higher in density already. Anoka’s market rate rent can be considered affordable. Anoka’s home values are affordable overall. The results could include loss of local control including the ability for communities and its citizens across the State to provide public input as part of the development approval process. The proposed laws are of preemptive nature to say the least and would include many mandates that may not be realistic, practical, and costly. Councilmember Scott recognizes what the Legislature was trying to accomplish by creating more affordable housing options but supported the resolution as proposed to allow more local control. Motion by Councilmember Wesp, seconded by Councilmember Scott, to adopt a resolution Supporting Retention of City Zoning Authority. Upon a roll call vote: Mayor Rice, Councilmembers Scott, Skogquist, Weaver, and Wesp voted in favor. Motion carried. 10. UNFINISHED BUSINESS None. 11. NEW BUSINESS 11.1 Approve Revision to Anoka Municipal Utility Rules and Regulations Amending Section 1008; Solar Installs Above 40kW with Max 39.9kW System Inverter Rate Policy. AMU Director Del Vancura shared a background report stating per our MMPA Purchased Power Agreement and per State Statute, Distributed Generation Solar producers below 40kW will be net metered by AMU. Solar system technology has developed a way to use inverters with nameplate ratings over 40kW to be used with any smaller size system by using an inverter device programmed to limit total system output. Inverters must be limited to a max output of 39.9kW to be compliant. AMU needs a policy in place to address systems that produce more than the allowed 39.9kW onto the AMU grid and put the utility in violation of the 39.9kW net metering cap. He shared Supplements A and B of the DER System Limitation Device Agreement in detail and asked Council to approve the revisions as proposed. April 1, 2024 (Regular) Page 13 of 14 City Attorney Scott Baumgartner spoke about Supplement B violations for customers going over the 40kW and the default possibilities that customers could violate multiple times while not being consecutive. Mr. Vancura explained a customer would have to be multiple consecutive violations before any disconnect based on their inverter and if not then we just pay them the tariff rate. Mayor Rice noted that could be a substantial penalty in itself and if a customer accidently goes over the rate is much lower. Mr. Baumgartner wanted it noted a customer could have multiple violations within a year with a built-in penalty if multiple occurrences during the year. Mr. Vancura said the penalty structure was reviewed through MMUA as well. Mayor Rice said the typical homeowner won’t be able to produce that much energy anyway but changes were causing greater demand and the only way to manage changes was to start to allow people to generate their own solar energy if they choose. He said this could effectively reduce or eliminate their electric bill and take some burden off of the City. Mr. Vancura said those customers who have acreage will be able to go over 100kW and then enter into a contract with the MMUA. Motion by Councilmember Weaver, seconded by Councilmember Wesp, to approve the revision to Anoka Municipal Utility Rules and Regulations Amending Section 1008; Solar Installs Above 40kW with Max 39.9kW System Inverter Rate Policy as presented. Vote taken. All ayes. Motion carried. Mr. Vancura said this policy will be presented at the MMPA meeting as a model for other providers. 12. UPDATES AND REPORTS 12.1 Legislative Discussions and Update. None. 12.2 Tentative Agenda(s). The Council reviewed the tentative agendas of the upcoming Council meetings. 12.3 Staff and Council Input. None. April 1, 2024 (Regular) Page 14 of 14 ADJOURNMENT Councilmember Wesp made a motion to adjourn the Regular Council meeting. Councilmember Scott seconded the motion. Vote taken. All ayes. Motion carried. Time of adjournment: 8:54 p.m. Submitted by: Cathy Sorensen, TimeSaver Off Site Secretarial, Inc. Approval Attestation: Amy T. Oehlers, City Clerk
