To:  New Hope City Council  From: Tim Hoyt, Acting City Manager  Date: October 20, 2022  Subject: Agenda Items for Monday, October 24, 2022      Open Forum  Staff is not aware of anyone planning to address the Council for the Open Forum.    Item 6.1  There is one new business license request for a tobacco license at 7538 42nd Avenue North. The applicant,  Mahmoud Rammouni, relinquished a license that was issued earlier this year for 42nd Tobacco Shop at 7700  42nd Avenue North. The tobacco store never opened at this site because the applicant was unable to reach an  agreement on terms of the lease (he planned to lease half of the space and the leasing agent preferred to find  a tenant to lease the entire space). Tobacco licenses cannot be transferred from place to place. The applicant  has completed new license paperwork, a copy of the lease, and has paid another license fee for the 2022  license period.    Item 6.2  This item involves routine financial claims.    Item 6.3  There are no new liability claims to report.    Item 6.4  Staff was recently contacted by Kennedy & Graven, the city’s bond counsel regarding an amendment to a  Note issued through the city. In 2014 the city issued a Revenue Note for $3.4 million for Homeward Bound  to refinance prior loans and construct a new care center in Golden Valley. The note was recently purchased  by Bremer Bank and will be reissued with an interest calculation method that differs from the original note  and requires an amendment. The amendment is not considered a new issuance of debt by the city. The city is  asked to adopt a resolution approving the amendment. Director Sargent and I recommend approval.    Item 6.5  This item supports the city’s grant applications to Hennepin County for three Hennepin Youth Sports  Program grants. The applications will include a request for a $250,000 facility grant for the 2023 field and  light improvement project at Lighted Baseball Field, a $3,000 equipment grant for basketball hoops for the  2023 basketball court replacement at Liberty Park, and a $2,500 equipment grant for two sets of new hockey  goals for the Ice Arena. Staff will be notified of grant awards in December. Director Rader and I recommend  approval of the resolution.       Item 6.6  This is the fencing consortium joint powers agreement that was discussed with Council at the October  work session. Council was supportive of joining the consortium to equip the city with fencing should  the need arise during civil unrest. The approximate annual cost is $7,000. Director Weber and I  recommend approval of the JPA.    Item 7.1  This is a public hearing to consider revoking the rental property registration permit for 3840 Boone Avenue  North. The property was issued a third disorderly behavior slip which led to the hearing to determine the  corrective action. The actions could be impose a fine, revoke the permit, suspend the permit, or take no  action. City staff recommends revocation of the rental registration. It is staff’s opinion that the property  owner cannot manage the property in a safe manner for both the tenants and the neighboring property  owners. It is also recommended that a new rental registration permit should not be issued to the same  property owner for a period of three years. The city attorney prepared a memorandum outlining the hearing  process.     Item 7.2  On September 26 the city engineer presented the feasibility report for the 2023 infrastructure improvements  that include the Northwood southeast and northeast neighborhoods, the Winnetka Green townhome area,  and parts of 61st Avenue North and Sumter Avenue North. The estimated project cost is $4,884,623 and the  CIP budget contains $4,980,371. The project will be funded with street infrastructure funds and utility funds.  There are no tax‐exempt properties in the proposed project area so there be no assessments. Staff asks  Council to conduct the public hearing and allow for public input. Neighborhood meetings will also be held.  If Council orders the project, plans and specifications will be presented in January. Director Weber and I  recommend approval.    Item 7.3  This is the assessment hearing for the 2020 Infrastructure Project No. 1034. There are two properties to be  assessed (one is city‐owned) for a total of $8,133.45 which is lower than the original estimated  assessment of $13,016.93. Evergreen Church was notified of their assessment for $6,244.20 for the  property at 3351 Independence Avenue North. Staff asks Council to conduct the public hearing and adopt  the resolution. Director Weber and I recommend approval.     Item 8.1  This resolution approves change order number 5 for $18,654.60 with Rochon Corporation for the public  works facility project. The change order includes light fixtures and long‐range RFID readers and extra cost  for wear course paving and patching in the parking lot. Staff reviewed the change order with Council at the  October work session. Director Weber and I recommend approval.    Item 10.1  This ordinance amendment is a minor change to chapter 8 regarding mobile food units. Applicants  must submit copies of a county license to the city in order to be considered for a mobile food unit  permit in New Hope. The state of Minnesota used to provide mobile food unit licenses but recently  delegated authority to Hennepin County. The city attorney prepared the ordinance amendment. City  Clerk Leone and I recommend approval.     Item 12.1  Mayor Hemken will review upcoming meetings and events.        If you have any questions regarding items in the agenda packet, please call the city clerk or me  before the meeting so that staff can research any issues and be prepared to respond at the meeting.

Resolution approving an amendment to the revenue note (Homeward Bound Project), Series 2014, and  authorizing the execution and delivery of an allonge to the note  Requested Action  Staff requests that the City Council approve a resolution amending a revenue note originally issued on April  11, 2014, for the Homeward Bound Project to reflect a change in how the interest rate on the note will be  calculated.  Policy/Past Practice  The City Council has approved resolutions in the past that have aided in financing non‐profit, bank qualified  loan projects, such as the Homeward Bound Project. The proposed resolution is required to ensure that the  interest rates on the bond note will be calculated appropriately.  Background  On April 11, 2014, the city of New Hope issued its Revenue Note in the original amount of $3,400,000 and  loaned the proceeds of the Note to Homeward Bound, Inc, a Minnesota nonprofit corporation to refinance  some prior loans made to existing housing and care facilities and to finance the acquisition, construction, and  equipping of a new housing and care facility to be located at 6615 Medicine Lake Road in Golden Valley, MN.  The Note was purchased by Bremer Bank. At the time of issuance of the Note, interest on the Note was  calculated using the 7‐year London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) formula; however, the use of LIBOR is  currently being phased out and will no longer be available as of June 30, 2023. As a result, the Lender has  informed the city and the borrower that interest on the Note will be calculated using the 7‐year Treasury  Constant Maturity Index, and this change must be reflected on the Note.    Approval of the amended language in the Note to reflect the change in how the interest will be calculated  must be done by resolution and approved by the City Council. Attached to the staff report is a memorandum  prepared by Kennedy & Graven, the city’s bond counsel, as well as the proposed amended language to the  Note.  Recommendation  Staff recommends that the City Council approve the resolution approving an amendment to the revenue note  (Homeward Bound Project), Series 2014, and authorizing the execution and delivery of an allonge to the note.  Agenda Section Consent Item Number  6.4    Request for Action, Page 2    Attachments  

The Note shall not constitute a charge, lien, or encumbrance, legal or equitable, upon any property of the City, except the interests of the City in the Loan Agreement, and the revenues and assets thereunder, which have been assigned to the Lender. 3. If the change in interest rate calculation causes a reissuance of the Note, the Mayor and/or the City Manager may execute any certificates required for a reissuance. 4.

The City loaned the proceeds of the Note to Homeward Bound, Inc., a Minnesota nonprofit corporation (the “Borrower”), pursuant to a Loan Agreement, dated as of April 1, 2014 (the “Loan Agreement”), between the City and the Borrower, to (i) refinance one or more loans (collectively, the “Prior Loans”) made to finance the Borrower’s existing housing and care facilities for the disabled located at 4300 Lake Drive, Robbinsdale, Minnesota; 3300 Fountain Lane, Plymouth, Minnesota; 315 Saratoga Lane North, Plymouth, Minnesota; 13522 Sunset Trail, Plymouth, Minnesota; 305 Althea Lane, Hopkins, Minnesota; 4213 Zealand Avenue North in the City; 3009 Atwood Avenue, Minnetonka, Minnesota; 4025 Jersey Avenue North, Crystal, Minnesota; 3535 June Avenue North, Crystal, Minnesota; 5720 43rd Avenue North, Crystal, Minnesota; 3529 Lee Avenue North, Crystal, Minnesota; 6809 36th Avenue North, Crystal, Minnesota; 4155 Webster Avenue South, St. Louis Park, Minnesota; 6769 East Fish Lake Road, Maple Grove, Minnesota; 7324 Noble Court, Brooklyn Park, Minnesota; 7839 Brooklyn Boulevard, Brooklyn Park, Minnesota; and 1629 Independence Avenue North, Golden Valley, Minnesota; (ii) finance the acquisition, construction, and equipping of a new housing and care facility to be located at 6615 Medicine Lake Road in Golden Valley, Minnesota; and (iii) pay the costs of issuance of the Note. The Note was purchased by Bremer Bank, National Association, a national banking association (the “Lender”). At the time of issuance of the Note, interest on the Note was calculated using the 7-year LIBOR formula; however, the use of LIBOR (the London Interbank Offered Rate) is currently being phased out and will no longer be available as of June 30, 2023. As a result, the Lender has informed the City and the Borrower that interest on the Note will be calculated using the 7-year Treasury Constant Maturity index, and such change (the “Amendment”) must be reflected in the Note. The Borrower would like the City to consider the enclosed resolution at the next City Council meeting, which would approve the Amendment to the Note. To memorialize the Amendment, the City will be asked to execute an Allonge to the Note. Kennedy & Graven, Chartered, as bond counsel to the City with respect to the issuance of the Note, has determined that such Amendment to the Note will not be considered a significant modification of the Note and will not result in a reissuance of the Note for tax purposes pursuant to Section 1.1001-3 of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”), if the change in the rate is not more than 25 basis points as of the effective date of the Amendment of the Note. However, if the change in the rate is more than 25 basis points as of the effective date of the Amendment of the Note, such Amendment to the Note will be considered a significant modification of the Note and will result in a reissuance of the Note for tax purposes pursuant to Section 1.1001-3 of the Treasury Regulations promulgated under the Code because the change in rate will be more than 25 basis points. City officials may be asked to execute certificates required for the reissuance, including but not limited to an Information Return for Tax-Exempt Private Activity Bonds, Internal Revenue Service Form 8038. The enclosed resolution includes a provision authorizing the City officials to execute such certificates if necessary. The Note will continue to be secured solely by the revenues derived from the Loan Agreement and from other security provided by the Borrower. The Note will not constitute a general or moral obligation of the City and will not be secured by or payable from any property or assets of the City (other than the interests of the City in the Loan Agreement) and will not be secured by any taxing power of the City. The Note will not be subject to any debt limitation imposed on the City. The Note was deemed to be “bank- qualified” in 2014 and will continue to be treated as “bank qualified” after the Amendment to the Note. The Amendment to the Note will not impact the City’s ability to issue “bank-qualified” bonds in calendar year 2022. The Amendment to the Note will not be considered a new issuance of debt by the City. On the original date of issuance of the Note, the City received a one-time administrative fee for the issuance of conduit bonds in the amount of $34,000. While the City will not collect an additional administrative fee in connection with the Amendment, any actual costs incurred by the City, including legal fees, will be paid by the Borrower. Please contact me with any questions on the foregoing.

Originating Department: City Manager  By: Tim W. Hoyt, Acting City Manager    Agenda Title  Resolution adopting the Fencing Consortium Joint Powers Agreement   Requested Action  Staff requests that the City Council adopt the Fencing Consortium Joint Powers Agreement to provide  fencing if needed during periods of civil unrest.                            Policy/Past Practice  The city participates in various Joint Powers Agreements as needed.   Background  Council and staff discussed the JPA at the work session of October 17, 2022, and Council expressed support.  In 2021 steps were taken to improve security at the Civic Center campus in light of the civil unrest that led to  vandalism and other criminal activities in nearby cities. The Fencing Consortium is a joint powers entity  pursuant to MS 471.59 comprised of local government agencies (members) that will jointly contract with a  fencing vendor for the availability, storage, maintenance, and transportation of anti‐scale fencing (including  vehicle gates and pedestrian doors). The Consortium will have the flexibility to increase the amount of  fencing, gates, and doors as additional local governments join the Consortium. By working cooperatively and  pooling resources, the member communities will have immediate access to anti‐scale fencing to protect public  buildings and infrastructure as well as to provide physical separation between law enforcement and  protesters.     The purpose and structure of the Fence Consortium is to provide experienced leadership for fence  deployment operations across multiple jurisdictions in a unified command structure and coordinate during  the deployment of anti‐scale fencing. The Fence Consortium itself is a multi‐agency, pre‐planned,  coordinated resource management system to continue efforts to minimize multiple local and state agencies  from being over‐extended.     The Fencing Consortium Joint Board would consist of five directors serving two‐year terms (two from law  enforcement, one from fire, one from public works, and one representing emergency managers).  Appointments would be made in 2023 and 2024 to provide staggered terms, as outlined in 4.2.    Funding  Each member agency’s cost is pro‐rated based on the footage of fencing needed for their location. Currently  the approximate cost for New Hope is $7,000 which would serve the city hall/police department and the fire  station. This price is expected to decrease as additional government agencies join the consortium. Also, an  annual assessment will be paid for on‐going costs to operate and maintain the fencing consortium.    Agenda Section Consent Item Number  6.6        Attachments   Resolution   Fencing Consortium Joint Powers Agreement      CITY OF NEW HOPE RESOLUTION NO. 2022- _____ RESOLUTION ADOPTING THE FENCING CONSORTIUM JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT WHEREAS, the governmental units in the state have experienced an increase in incidences of civil unrest with violent and destructive actors who pose a threat to the public, public personnel, buildings, and critical infrastructure; and WHEREAS, the First Amendment of the United States Constitution protects the freedom of speech, the press, and the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances; and WHEREAS, recent experience has shown that the use of anti-scale fencing has greatly de-escalated tension between law enforcement and protesters; and WHEREAS, by de-escalating the tension, the anti-scale fencing helps to reduce the trauma on the community, improve the safety for all, minimize the impact on neighboring properties, and reduce the community resources that have to be committed to such events; and WHEREAS, governmental units have recognized the need to have ready access to anti- scalable fencing as a tool for de-escalation and community safety while protecting against violent and destructive actors; and WHEREAS, the best means for a governmental unit to access such fencing in a timely and cost-effective manner is to work cooperatively with other governmental units; and WHEREAS, the Fencing Consortium Joint Powers Agreement (“Fencing JPA”), which is incorporated herein by reference, establishes a joint board to obtain and make available to members anti-scalable fencing in response to critical incidences, sets out the powers of the joint board, requires members to pay their share of the fencing costs and operational costs of the Fencing Consortium, requires members to provide staffing to assemble and disassemble the fencing as part of the Public Works Mutual Aid Pact, and otherwise provides for the operation of the Fencing Consortium as a joint powers entity; and WHEREAS, the governmental unit is a member of the Public Works Mutual Aid Pact and is otherwise eligible to adopt the Fencing JPA; and WHEREAS, it is in the best interests of the community to become a member and participate in the Fencing Consortium. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IS RESOLVED, by the governing body as follows: 1. The Fencing JPA is hereby approved and adopted. 2. The Acting City Manager is authorized and directed to make nominations and to cast votes on persons to be elected to the Fencing Consortium Board of Directors. 3. Staff are authorized and directed to do each of the following: a. Submit a fully executed copy of this Resolution as directed in the Fencing JPA to indicate membership in the Fencing Consortium; b. Designate a primary and secondary point of contact for the Fencing Consortium for administrative purposes. c. Coordinate with the other Fencing Consortium members and the Board on the selection of staff from the public works department to serve on the fencing deployment team; and   d. Take other actions as may be needed to carry out the intent of this Resolution and as may be required under the terms of the Fencing JPA. Adopted by the New Hope City Council this 24th day of October, 2022. Kathi Hemken, Mayor ATTEST: Valerie Leone, City Clerk 1 CR225-476-758705.v8 FENCING CONSORTIUM JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT THIS FENCING CONSORTIUM JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT (“Agreement”) is made and entered into by and among the Governmental Units identified in the attached Exhibit A (each a “Member” or collectively the “Members”). RECITALS A. The civil unrest and resulting negative impacts on mental health, damage to buildings, and a reduction in overall safety experienced in the Seven County Metropolitan Area in recent years has given rise to a need for communities to have ready access to anti- scalable fencing. The anti-scale fencing can be set up to protect public buildings, critical infrastructure, and other key locations to de-escalate tensions between law enforcement and protestors as well as reduce the need to rely on crowd control measures to protect such locations from violent and destructive actors. B. Appropriate fencing to serve this purpose is produced by few vendors, currently all of which are located outside of the state. C. This type of fencing is expensive and the delays associated with attempting to identify and secure the delivery of fencing during the response to a critical incident may result in unnecessary risks to personnel and public property. D. By pooling resources and working cooperatively, communities can access high quality fencing, trained personnel, and related resources to assemble it in as efficient manner as possible to support de-escalation measures with protestors and protect facilities from violent and destructive actors. AGREEMENT In consideration of the mutual agreements and understandings, and intending to be legally bound, the Members hereby agree as follows: ARTICLE I DEFINITIONS AND PURPOSE 1.1. Definition of Terms. For the purposes of this Agreement, the following terms shall have the meaning given them in this section.

Prior to the effective date of the dissolution, the Board shall use the Fencing Consortium’s assets to pay its outstanding obligations.

The Board shall divide the amount needing to be collected by a Member Assessment using the same formula for other Member Assessments. The Fencing Consortium shall not be finally dissolved until its outstanding obligations are paid in full. 12.2 Distribution of Assets and Property.

Violation of New Hope Code section 9‐42, pertaining to the Regulation and abatement of prohibited  noise.    On April 17, 2022, the Police Department responded to the property on a noise complaint. Upon arrival, it was  determined that loud music could be heard from the property one block away. The responding officer  informed a resident that the music was too loud, and the volume must be lowered. The officer later determined  that there were three prior noise complaints regarding the subject property with no disorderly behavior slip  issued. Because of the previous warnings, a disorderly behavior slip was issued for Prohibited Noise (NH Ord  9‐42) and a letter was sent to the property owner per code section 3‐31(i)(3).    On June 28, 2022, the Police Department responded to the property on a noise complaint. Upon arrival to the  property, the police officer was informed that a resident was in his room refusing to turn his music down.  When the staff member asked him to turn the music down, the resident threatened to stab him with a  screwdriver. The police officers were unable to get the resident to open his bedroom door and issued the  citation for the noise violation. A disorderly behavior slip was issued for Prohibited Noise (NH Ord 9‐42) and  a letter was sent to the property owner per code section 3‐31(i)(4).    On September 19, 2022, the Police Department responded to the property in response to a recreational fire  that was not in compliance with the city ordinance. The fire was within 25 feet of a structure. The police officers  requested that the resident extinguish the fire, but the resident refused. After some more confrontation, the  resident moved and picked up a fire poker. The responding officer felt threatened by this action, unholstered  his firearm and told the resident to drop the potential weapon. The officer cleared the resident from the fire  poker and had the fire extinguished. A disorderly behavior slip was issued for Disorderly Conduct (MSS    Request for Action, Page 3    609.72) and Obstructing the Legal Process (MSS 609.50) and a letter notifying the property owner of the third  disorderly behavior incident and the hearing was sent per code section 3‐31(i)(5).  Recommendation  Due to the number of historical complaints generated by the property at 3840 Boone Avenue, and because a  third disorderly behavior slip was issued within a 12‐month period, staff recommends that the rental  registration permit be revoked. It is staff’s opinion that the property owner cannot manage the property in a  safe manner, for both the tenants and the neighboring property owners, and for this reason, staff also  recommends that a new rental registration permit should not be issued to the same property owner, or any  entity of the property owner, for a period of three (3) years.    After a formal decision by the Council is made, staff will prepare a resolution for consideration of approval at  the November 14, 2022 City Council Meeting.  Attachments   Jensen, Sondrall, Persellin & Woods Memo   Section 3‐31 of the City Code related to Rental Registration Permits   Evidence related to the issuance of the first disorderly behavior slip   Evidence related to the issuance of the second disorderly behavior slip   Evidence related to the issuance of the third disorderly behavior slip   Hearing Exhibits          M E M O R A N D U M  Date: October 19, 2022 To: Tim Hoyt, Police Chief and Acting City Manager; Jeff Sargent, Community Development Director and City Council From: Stacy Woods, City Attorney Re: Hearing on Revocation of Rental Registration Permit Held by ASHTON HOMES LLC/Sekou AM Dukuly for 3840 Boone Avenue North This matter is scheduled for the October 24, 2022 Council Agenda under Public Hearings for a hearing to potentially revoke the rental registration permit for 3840 Boone Avenue North. The basis for this potential revocation is there were 3 instances of disorderly behavior at the same property involving a tenant at the same rental dwelling unit within a 12 month period. This Memorandum summarizes the hearing process. The hearing is pursuant to Section 3-31(i)(j)(4). Per City Code Section 3‐31 (j), the City Council  may revoke a rental registration permit if proper findings are made.  It is staff’s opinion that the  property owner/permit holder – ASHTON HOMES LLC, Sekou AM Dukuly meets the criteria  needed for the City Council to revoke the rental license.  The hearing will basically be an informal trial. The evidence will be presented by individuals who testify as to their knowledge of the facts. Both sides will get to present their case. The City Council shall hear all relevant evidence and arguments and shall review all testimony, documents, and other evidence submitted. After hearing all of the testimony, the City Council will make a decision as to whether the rental registration permit should be revoked, suspended, a fine imposed, or whether no action should be taken. It’s possible that a settlement could be reached if permit holder presents an agreeable resolution of the issues occurring at the property that is agreeable to the City Council. The City Attorney will draft the written decision that will list the findings made by the City Council. This written decision will be issued within 30 days following the date of the hearing and will be mailed to permit holder. The Acting City Manager and Building Official will present the facts. Stacy Woods will be asking the questions and the testimony will be from anyone who has direct knowledge of these 3 incidents. The Acting City Manager, police officers listed below next to the respective citations, The Officers will be asked questions so as to establish the case for revocation of the permit. Specific questions will be asked to outline the 3 separate citations. The citations and letters to the owner/permit holder will be presented as exhibits. The City Council is acting in a fact-finding manner. They should listen to the entire case first and then ask any questions they may have for the permit holder. The questions should be asked in an orderly fashion with no one interrupting anyone else. Everyone should act with respect and refrain from arguing. This is similar to how a judge would behave. Civility and decorum must be maintained by all parties. The owner or owner’s agent may present any defenses he has. At the meeting the following people will need to be present to testify: Director of Police and Acting City Manager Tim Hoyt, Officer Michael TenEyck, Officer Sabrina DeMars, Officer Corey Cracknell, Director of Community Development, Jeff Sargent, Sekou AM Dukuly, and Sheikh K.

If the City Council decides the findings support revoking the rental registration permit, various terms may be included in the decision including: 1. The tenants at the Property must vacate it within a reasonable period of time (30-45 days). 2. If the permit holder fails to remove the tenants within the required timeframe, then the City may commence legal action seeking injunctive relief requiring him to do so. 3.

obtained for each separate dwelling unit that is not owner‐occupied. This includes all dwelling units  which are occupied by a relative of the owner. Properties renting individual rooms/levels within the

any changes occur in any information required on the registration application, the owner must submit  an amended registration application to the city within 30 days of the change. If any rental dwelling  units are added to a current registration permit, the additional rental dwelling units must be registered

(f) Issuance of permit. The city shall issue a registration permit if the rental dwelling unit(s) and the application  are found to be in compliance with the provisions of this section subject to subsection (i) of this section and  any required registration fees are paid. A registration permit will be issued for each residential dwelling unit  except, two or more residential dwelling units located within a single building and having a common owner

the recommendation of the building official. The city manager or the manager's designees shall make  their decision to recommend revocation, suspension or nonrenewal of the registration permit and  submit their recommendation to the city council within ten days of the third instance of disorderly  behavior.

measures which will prevent further instances of disorderly behavior which may include a failed  eviction process.   (8) Determining disorderly behavior of a registration permit. A determination that the rental dwelling unit  has been the location of disorderly behavior shall be made upon substantial evidence to support such a  determination. It shall not be necessary that criminal charges be brought in order to support a

I:\RFA\PUBWORKS\2022\Council\1090 2023 Infrastructure Improvement Project\7.1 Q&R Public Hearing & preparation of plans  Request for Action  October 24, 2022    Approved by: Tim Hoyt, Acting City Manager  Originating Department: Public Works  By: Bernie Weber, Public Works Director     Agenda Title  Resolution ordering the construction of and preparation of plans and specifications for the 2023  Infrastructure Project (Improvement Project No. 1090).    Requested Action  Staff is requesting that the Council conduct a public hearing and receive a presentation by the city  engineer regarding a proposed 2023 infrastructure improvement project. Staff recommends that the  Council pass a resolution ordering the 2023 Infrastructure Improvement Project and authorizing  Stantec, the city’s consulting engineer, to prepare the plans and specifications.    Policy/Past Practice  The City Council routinely considers public infrastructure improvement projects to extend the useful life of the  infrastructure and/or improve the level of service. The city’s pavement management plan identifies these areas  in the Street Infrastructure Projects portion of the plan.    Background  The general location of the potential 2023 project includes streets in the Northwood southeast neighborhood  bounded by Boone Avenue to the west, 36th Avenue to the north, and the City of Crystal to the south and east  as shown on the attached project map. Elm Grove Avenue, 61st Avenue between Winnetka Avenue and Sumter  Avenue, and Sumter Avenue between 61st Avenue and Sumter Place are also proposed for street  improvements. Streets included in the project were recommended based upon pavement conditions identified  in the 2021 pavement management plan as well as underlying utility condition.     Utility improvements will include the replacement of the sanitary sewer manhole lids, frames, and rings to  reduce inflow and infiltration. Several sections of water main are proposed for replacement along Yukon  Avenue, Virginia Avenue, and 37th Avenue. These sections of water main have a history of water main breaks.        The feasibility report was presented and approved on September 26 and identified specific street and utility  improvement strategies. The feasibility report also identified there are no tax‐exempt properties that will be  affected by this work. Therefore, assessments will not be a funding source for the project.     A notice has been sent to residents along the project area to make them aware of the presentation of the  feasibility report that occurred on September 26. Residents may provide additional comments to the Council  and staff at the October 24, 2022 public hearing. Staff will also conduct site visits throughout the project area in  the next month to answer any questions on how the project will affect properties, trees, driveways, curb and  gutter replacement, storm sewer improvements, etc. These types of meetings have worked well in the past to  address resident’s questions.          Agenda Section Public Hearing Item Number  7.2

Based on discussions with the City Finance Consultant on the estimated water main costs exceeding the CIP budget, some portions of the proposed water main improvements may need to be delayed until future reconstruction of the streets. Staff may include some of those water main improvements as alternates in order to get the base bid improvements within the CIP budget. At the Public Hearing, it is recommended a summary of the project scope be presented. Since the Northwood NE area will be delayed until 2025, there are no proposed assessment roll for this project. If Council accepts the information presented and chooses to move forward with this project after the Public Hearing, we then recommend that the Council approves a resolution ordering the construction of and preparation of plans and specifications for the 2023 Infrastructure Improvements at the October 24, 2022 meeting. Bids would be received on or around February 2023, construction work done in 2023, and substantial completion of the project in Fall 2023 with final completion in Spring/Summer 2024.

The general locations of the study area include streets within the Northwood NE and Northwood SE neighborhoods; bounded by Gethsemane cemetery to the north, Winnetka Avenue North to the east, 33rd Avenue North, and to the south and Boone Avenue N to the west. The public streets within the Winnetka Green townhome community, located south of Bass Lake Road (CSAH 10) and east of Winnetka Avenue North (CSAH 156) is also included in this report. Streets included in the project were recommended based upon the current condition of the pavement and underlying utilities. The improvements identified include utility replacements on sections of roadway with a history of watermain breaks, as well as the continued focus on a more aggressive pavement management strategy to improve the driving surface of more streets utilizing overlays and reclamation. This pavement management philosophy will provide for quicker street improvements and will allow the utility funds to build for future full reconstruction. The new overlays and reclaim streets will improve the quality of life, increase the aesthetic value, and increase the safety of the roadways. The finding of this report will be presented and discussed at the September 26, 2022, Council meeting. Respectfully submitted, STANTEC CONSULTING SERVICES, INC. Dan D. Boyum, P.E. I hereby certify that this plan, specification, or report was prepared by me or under my direct supervision and that I am a duly Licensed Professional Engineer under the laws of the State of Minnesota.

Figure 1A depicts the south half of the project extents, while Figure 1B shows the remaining northern project areas. HISTORY In order to improve the overall quality of its local infrastructure system, the City of New Hope continues with a more aggressive pavement management philosophy to improve the existing driving surface and extend the pavement life of its streets. As the road conditions and Pavement Rating Index’s (PRI’s) continued to decline, it was apparent the City was not keeping up with street rehabilitations. The Pavement Management Plan continued to fall behind, and a more aggressive approach to pavement management was agreed upon by the City Council in May of 2014. Interim overlays will be utilized to add structural integrity to the existing street sections, accompanied with limited historical utility improvements. A full-depth reclamation (FDR) of the pavement section is another option for poor street conditions, but with curb and gutter and drainage in relative operational condition. FDR streets has also been used for streets with significant historical water main breaks. FDR is an economical balance between replacement of water main, improving drivability by removing street patches, and extending the service life of the overall street section. Both overlay and FDR streets are being utilized efforts to build up water and other utility funds and spend city funds to create the greatest ‘good’ within the available budgets. Finally, the most aggressive and expensive rehabilitation option is a full reconstruction where streets showing significant roadway subgrade, drainage issues, as well as those having a significant amount of utility issues. The pavement management strategy will improve the driving surface and will provide the ability to improve more streets. The new overlays will improve the quality of life, increase the aesthetic value, and increase the safety of the roadways. SCOPE OF STUDY The purpose of this report is to provide the feasibility of the street and utility improvements. The area of study includes a total of approximately 4.94 miles of residential streets. The type of improvement required will be determined by the existing condition of the pavement, roadway subgrade, as well as the condition of the underlying utilities. For each type of improvement, costs and funding will be evaluated. The report breaks down the project into logical sections to allow for reduction in scope, if desired, at the time of deciding if the project should move forward into the design stage.

Overall, the condition of the existing storm and sanitary systems in the study area is fair to satisfactory. During design, a detailed review of city records and field investigations will be performed to identify specific structures and/or pipe segments warranting an improvement or replacement. The streets in the project area were rated in Fall of 2020 and Spring 2021 based on the City’s Pavement Ratings Index (PRI). The index ranges from 0-100 and assigns a value to each street segment based on the visual condition of the pavement. In general, a low PRI indicates a roadway that is failing structurally, while a higher value indicates a segment is in better surface condition. In general, the average for the three areas are shown in the table below is a summary of the PRI ratings for the project area.

The average PRI rating would describe an overall pavement condition of low-mid good, however, the Northwood SE streets area has an average PRI rating described as ‘poor.’ The 10-year pavement management plan identified both Northwood NE and SE streets to receive the more aggressive rehabilitation strategy of a full-depth reclaim and overlay. Northwood NE was identified with the higher PRI average of 72.5, the initial improvement was adjusted to a mill and overlay. Soil borings and ground penetrating radar (GPR) have been completed to assist in further understanding the existing street section characteristics and condition. Figures 3A and 3B identifies the locations and limits of this field exploration. Final data and the accompanying reports have been received and generally support the identified street improvements proposed in this report. The City of New Hope Stantec Project No: 193805677 2023 Infrastructure Improvements Page 9 Pavement and Geotechnical Evaluation Report, completed by Braun Intertec dated September 14, 2022 is included in Appendix B of this report. The preliminary geotechnical report scope also reviewed the field cores and hand augers for the presence of Petromat® material within the pavement section. Petromat® is a fabric material that was placed between the layers of bituminous pavement as an interim improvement to provide strength in the street and reduce cracking. No Petromat was discovered within the pavement cores during the geotechnical investigation. The findings from the geotechnical report identified six street sections where the initial planned improvement of mill and overlay would be marginally effective based on the geotechnical field findings. These segments are within the Northwood NE area. The pavement cores broke when extracted, and severe underlying stripping was also noted. All the segments shown in Table 2 are located within the Northwood NE neighborhood.

The Winnetka Green neighborhood was not included in the geotechnical study as the street composition is already known as it was constructed in 2004. Following the city pavement management plan, this street is scheduled for the M&O improvement and has not had any water main breaks to-date. Most all the water main is cast iron installed in the 1960’s within the Northwood NE and SE areas. As is typical with other existing cast iron water main in the city, a history of breaks has been confirmed on several of the project streets and are shown on Figure 4. The water main breaks are especially prevalent in multiple street segments. The water main will be replaced on streets with the highest density of historical breaks in conjunction with the FDR street improvements. City of New Hope Stantec Project No: 193805677 2023 Infrastructure Improvements Page 10 The other present water main material is ductile iron pipe installed along the Wisconsin/35 ½ Avenues segments and the Winnetka Green neighborhood. None of these segments have had a water main break recorded to-date. During the Summer 2022, two additional sections of streets were identified as requiring attention as the condition of street is so poor in condition. These street segments are summarized in the below Table 3. TABLE 3 –ADDITIONAL STREET SEGMENTS REQUIRING REPAIR AS IDENTIFIED DURING SUMMER 2022 REVIEW Street From To Length Ft.

Two different street improvement methods have been identified for this project. The typical proposed street sections corresponding to the proposed improvements are shown on Figure 5. The rehabilitation methods were generally chosen based on the following criteria: ·Full Depth Reclamation (FDR) o Poor street and underlying base conditions that cannot be significantly improved by mill & overlay o Poor to Very poor PRI rating – failing base and wear course pavement o Limited or lesser amount of water main breaks than full reconstruct streets; but potentially enough to warrant replacing the only the main. o Other utility replacements/repairs required ·Mill and Overlay o Poor street conditions of which can have an effective benefit with a mill and overlay o Average PRI rating o Limited or lesser amount of water breaks than full-depth reclamation streets o Minimal utility improvements required MISCELLANEOUS Boulevards disturbed by construction in all areas will be graded, shaped, and restored. If driveways are disturbed during construction, they will be patched to match the existing driveway material. All traffic signs within the project limits will be reviewed to verify current code and sign retro-reflectivity standards. Streetlight replacement or upgrades are not planned with this project, and costs are not included in this report. Trees near proposed water main improvements may need to be removed for worker safety as well as a result of root damage. We will identify the trees that need to be removed during design and will update property owners at that time. The city has a listing of tree types and species that will be replanted for property owners if their tree needs to be removed. The city is also monitoring emerald ash bore and its effects on ash trees. Some of the ash trees in the project area may be removed under that city program. FULL-DEPTH RECLAMATION (FDR) Full-depth reclamation (or Reclaim and Overlay) consists of grinding up the entire pavement section and mixing it with the underlying aggregate base, creating a homogeneous roadway base. This material is then shaped, compacted, and excess material is hauled away. A new, 3-inch lift of bituminous wear pavement is then placed over the entire roadway. Curb replacement will be completed on areas with severe damage or poor drainage prior to paving, and spot patching will be completed on any areas with soft subgrade soils. Table 4 summarizes the street segments proposed to receive the full depth reclaim and overlay street improvement.

The full width mill and overlay increases structural strength of the road, with the assumption that the underlying bituminous and aggregate are in reasonable condition. Curb replacement will be completed on areas of severely damaged or poorly draining curb prior to paving. Spot patching will be completed on any severely cracked or failing pavement prior to the new bituminous overlay. Table 5 summarizes the recommended mill and overlay improvement streets and the total length of street improvement. TABLE 5 –MILL AND OVERLAY STREETS –WINNETKA GREEN Street From To Length Ft. ELM GROVE WINNETKA AVE N BASS LAKE RD 2,082 (0.39 mi) The streets in Table 6 were initially planned to be rehabilitated with a full width mill and overlay and are recommended to be postponed to 2025 because the PRI is averaging 72.5. Delaying it to 2025 also provides for eight years from the last seal coat and fog seal. Based on the geotechnical City of New Hope Stantec Project No: 193805677 2023 Infrastructure Improvements Page 18 evaluation, reclaiming the streets versus a mill and overlay will be recommended for the entire neighborhood.

This technique consists of milling off the upper portion of bituminous on only the outer 6’ of each side of the roadway and is generally utilized in areas of poor drainage when the existing roadway crown is too low. Given that there do not appear to be poorly drained areas because of a low centerline crown, as well as some poor overall pavement conditions across the entire width of the roadway, a full width mill and overlay is recommended on all the identified segments for this project.

Although, as the type of pavement materials continue to evolve, we will continue to explore new and innovative technologies to improve the streets and extend the pavement life. There is potential for this project or future projects to utilize less expensive and/or better pavement materials. COMPLETE STREETS In May 2011, the City of New Hope approved a Complete Streets policy. The policy outlined the city’s commitment to consider the safety and functionality of streets for people of all ages and abilities, and for various modes of transportation. Examples of modes of transportation include walking, biking, wheelchairs, public transit, and automotive. In accordance with the policy, a Complete Streets network has been reviewed with this project. While streets will be further reviewed during the design phase for all street improvement areas, it is not anticipated that any trails, sidewalks, bike lanes, or other complete streets elements will be incorporated into this project area. All the streets are local streets which currently do not have any of these elements and are not designated to have them within the City’s comprehensive plan. City of New Hope Stantec Project No: 193805677 2023 Infrastructure Improvements Page 21 CITY OF NEW HOPE – 2023 INFRASTRUCTURE IMPROVEMENT PROJECT WATER MAIN IMPROVEMENTS The water main on the street segments identified in this report is made of cast iron pipe (CIP). Historically, the CIP water main throughout the city has been a significant maintenance issue. Numerous breaks have occurred over the years, causing considerable inconvenience to residents and maintenance cost to the city. The Winnetka Green Townhome community and the two northern added streets both have had no water main incidents to-date. This could be attributed to the 2004 installed water pipe material being ductile iron within Winnetka Green development and the soil composition in the far northeast of the city where the original 1970s cast iron pipe has remained without many incidents, therefore only the Northwood area is represented in Figure 4. FULL DEPTH RECLAMATION (OR RECLAIM AND OVERLAY) These proposed water main improvements are located on six street segments, as shown Figure 6. The number of consecutive breaks is driving the replacement of the water main in these areas. Table 7 details the scope and number of breaks for each proposed street segment. Generally, water main incidents have been occurring at the main, and connecting saddles. Therefore, the replacement strategy will not include replacement of services and curb stops.

Roots will be an on-going challenge as the pipe main materials are the original 1960’s clay pipe. The televising will be reviewed during design to confirm the conditions of the mains. These pipes are planned to be lined in a future sanitary rehabilitation project. The Winnetka Green development consists of primarily PVC and RCP pipe materials, and the majority were installed in 2004. These pipe lengths are in satisfactory condition. The northern-most add-in streets of 61st Ave N and Sumter Ave N are part of a fully cast-in-place pipe (CIPP) improvement area in 2016. The method of lining existing clay pipes using CIPP avoids disruptive and costly open-trench replacement, while still providing root and infiltration protection. CIPP lining also adds additional life to the existing sanitary sewer. No other spot repairs will be required in the mill and overlay or reclaim and overlay areas based on current televising reports, which will be verified during final design. All manhole covers within the project area that have open pick holes are proposed to be replaced with covers with concealed pick holes. This will remove any unnecessary inflow into the sanitary sewer system through those openings. All existing manholes covers with potential inflow are identified on Figure 7. All costs associated to removing inflow and infiltration can be credited to Metropolitan Council I/I (Inflow/Infiltration) Excess Surcharge amounts.

Some cost has been allocated to remove and replace a few storm sewer casting, frame, and rings for structures that may be in critical structural condition. Further review of storm sewer structure conditions will be done during design. The impact of these improvements to the surrounding areas is minimal, and it is recommended to complete these improvements with this project. Replacing the existing storm sewer structures is not planned for the project scope. It is anticipated that New Hope Public Works will repair any failing structures as they occur prior to a full reconstruction improvement in the future. ALTERNATE PLANTINGS INSTALLATION IN NORTHWOOD PARK With environmental conscience, an alternate will be included for the installation of a butterfly garden within the greater Northwood Park Ballfields. The garden plants are to attract, encourage and retain butterfly populations. Other pollinators will benefit from the plantings as well. The garden installation is proposed with the focus on promoting pollinator / butterfly awareness. Gardens provide for a natural filtration and storage area for rainwater prior to entering the ground or the storm sewer system. This natural process helps to filter out pollutants that are washed from streets, parking lots, and lawns with rainwater. During the design phase, utilization of excess run-off from the ballfield and open areas collected in the existing storm system and bypassed to provide watering for the garden and water filtration before re-entering the existing storm system. The design of this proposed alternate is a combination of rain garden containing wildlife promoting plantings. During the design phase, if approved, the location within the Northwood Ballfields area will be determined, the general area of focus is noted on Figure 1A. ALTERNATE MEADOW LAKE INLET IMPROVEMENTS The scope of this alternate is to improve the function of the northeast outlet into Meadow Lake located off the Wisconsin Circle neighborhood as noted on Figure 1B. The outlet area requires maintenance attention and improvements as street collected storm water is not effectively draining to the waterbody. The area currently has sediment which over time has collected into an earthen berm, essentially blocking direct drainage. Vegetation overgrowth and fast-growing trees have also established which has worsened as the overall waterbody edge has receded. Adjacent property owners have had flooding issues in their backyards resulting from the current condition of this outlet area. Existing rip rap will also be removed, and a new rip raped system will be placed after the removals are completed. The city would use this as an opportunity to recycle the granite rocks previously removed from the pool and city hall parking lot medians.

ESTIMATE COMPARED TO CIP BUDGET This report breaks down the project into logical sections to allow for reduction in scope, if desired, at the time of deciding if the project should move forward into the design stage. Since the estimated costs are higher and lower than the original Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) 2023 Budget as shown in Table 10, we will work with Staff to identify logical adjustments. For example, because there are street restoration costs tied to the watermain improvements and since watermain costs are coming in over budget at this time, some of those street restoration costs included under the watermain improvements could be associated to the street restoration costs.

Introduction A.1. Project Description This Pavement and Geotechnical Evaluation Report addresses the City of New Hope’s 2023 Infrastructure Improvement Projects. The streets total approximately 4.23 miles in length, have a bituminous surface and are planned for either a 2-inch mill-and-overlay or full-depth reclamation (FDR). Some watermain replacement work will also be performed on streets planned for FDR. It was requested that we perform Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) testing, pavement coring and hand auger borings and soil borings. Table 1 provides additional project details. Table 1. Site Aspects and Grading Description Aspect Description Pavement type(s) Bituminous Assumed pavement loads 100,000 ESALs* Grade changes Given the presence of curb and gutter, we assume existing grades will be met *Equivalent 18,000-lb single axle loads based on 20-year design. A.2. Purpose The purpose of our pavement and geotechnical evaluation will be to determine in-place pavement layer thicknesses and characterize subsurface geologic conditions at selected explorations for use in assessing the planned repairs. A.3. Background Information and Reference Documents We reviewed the following information:  Sketch indicating the streets to be tested and recommended exploration locations, as provided by Stantec. City of New Hope Project B2207599 September 12, 2022 Page 2  Aerial Maps available from Google Earth®.  USDA Websoil survey of Hennepin County. We have described our understanding of the proposed construction and site to the extent others reported it to us. Depending on the extent of available information, we may have made assumptions based on our experience with similar projects. If we have not correctly recorded or interpreted the project details, the project team should notify us. New or changed information could require additional evaluation, analyses and/or recommendations. A.4. Scope of Services We performed our scope of services for the project in accordance with our Proposal QTB163275 to Mr. Bernie Weber, dated August 1, 2022, and authorized on August 8, 2022. The following list describes the tasks completed in accordance with our authorized scope of services.  Estimating pavement thickness data on each street with an air-coupled Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR).  Conducting 18 bituminous pavement cores and hand auger borings on the streets, noting their condition, and measuring their thicknesses.  Performing six soil borings, denoted as ST-1 through ST-6, to a depth of 12 feet each at locations specified by Stantec.  Preparing this report containing our findings and recommendations for pavement rehabilitation. B. Results B.1. GPR Testing GPR was used to approximate pavement layer thicknesses along the streets. The data was collected at a nominal 1-foot interval. Where “ground truth” data (pavement coring, hand auger borings and soil City of New Hope Project B2207599 September 12, 2022 Page 3 borings) were performed, the interpreted layers from the GPR scan were compared directly to the measured thicknesses to validate the accuracy of the GPR analysis. Based on our analysis using the RADAN software program, the average pavement layer thicknesses for each street segment are provided in the matrix included in Appendix F. Within some of the GPR scans, there was excessive ambient noise within some of the scans, which can affect the clarity and penetration depth of the data. Appendix C provides the GPR data in graphical form. We highly recommend referring to Appendix C to see how thicknesses vary along each street. B.2. Pavement Core and Hand Auger Boring Results As requested, we performed a total of 18 pavement core and hand auger borings. All explorations were performed within drive lanes at locations recommended by Stantec. Locations are provided on the map in Appendix B and photographs of the pavement cores are provided in Appendix D. Information from the cores and hand auger borings was used to obtain/validate GPR pavement layer thicknesses for the bituminous and aggregate base layers, if present, as well as to assess bituminous material conditions. Results are provided in the matrix provided in Appendix F. It should be noted that we did not perform gradation analysis on the apparent aggregate base material encountered as part of the pavement section, in accordance with our scope of work. Therefore, we cannot conclusively determine if the encountered material satisfies a particular specification. Bituminous core thicknesses ranged from about 4 to 7 inches, and apparent aggregate base thicknesses obtained from hand auger borings ranged from about 4 to 11 1/2 inches. As noted in the matrix, none of the pavement cores encountered Petromat™ paving fabric, which has been placed on some of the City’s streets to help slow the progression of reflective cracking. For each of the pavement cores, the matrix notes whether or not stripping was observed. Stripping is the deterioration of the asphalt/aggregate bond in a bituminous pavement due to the presence of moisture. Stripping often begins at the bottom of the bituminous layer, where it may be in contact with saturated aggregate or soil, and proceeds upward. City of New Hope Project B2207599 September 12, 2022 Page 4 Low-severity stripping is common in bituminous pavements over time. However, those that have stripped to moderate to severe degrees would typically not be considered for rehabilitation methods that may leave any damaged portion of the pavement in place, such as mill-and-overlay. B.3. Boring Results Table 2 provides a summary of the soil boring results in the general order we encountered the strata. Please refer to the Log of Boring sheets in Appendix E for additional details. The Descriptive Terminology sheet in Appendix E includes definitions of abbreviations used in Table 2. Table 2. Subsurface Profile Summary Strata Soil Type - ASTM Classification Range of Penetration Resistances Commentary and Details Pavement  Overall thicknesses varied between about 11 and 17 inches.  Bituminous thicknesses varied between about 5 and 7 inches and averaged 6 inches.  Apparent aggregate base thicknesses varied between about 6 and 11 inches and averaged about 9 inches. Fill SC  Encountered below the pavement section and varied from about 2 1/2 to 3 feet thick.  Soils were brown in color.  Moisture conditions were moist. Glacial deposits SC 21 BPF  Encountered below the pavement section and fill soils, where encountered, and extended to the termination depth.  Soils were variable in color consisting of light brown, brown, gray and reddish brown. There were also some areas with rust staining.  Moisture conditions were moist. CL, ML 2 to 22 BPF We did not perform gradation analysis on the apparent aggregate base material encountered as part of the pavement section, in accordance with our scope of work. Therefore, we cannot conclusively determine if the encountered material satisfies a particular specification, and it should not be assumed it is suitable for reuse. For simplicity in this report, we define existing fill to mean existing, uncontrolled or undocumented fill. City of New Hope Project B2207599 September 12, 2022 Page 5 B.4. Groundwater We did not observe groundwater while performing our borings. Groundwater may take days or longer to reach equilibrium in the boreholes and we immediately backfilled the boreholes, in accordance with our scope of work. If the project team identifies a need for more accurate determination of groundwater depth, we can install piezometers. Project planning should anticipate seasonal and annual fluctuations of groundwater. B.5. Laboratory Test Results Table 3 presents the results of our laboratory tests. Table 3. Laboratory Classification Test Results Location Sample Depth (ft) Classification Moisture Content (w, %) Percent Passing a #200 Sieve ST-1 2 1/2 SC 16 45 ST-3 5 CL 24 -- ST-5 5 ML 23 94 ST-6 2 1/2 SC 12 48 The moisture content of the tested samples of clayey sand varied from approximately 12 to 16 percent, indicating that the materials tested were above their probable optimum moisture content. The moisture content of the silt and lean clay samples tested varied from approximately 23 to 24 percent, indicating that the materials tested were near their probable optimum moisture content. Our mechanical analyses indicated that the soils contained 45 to 94 percent silt and clay by weight. C. Recommendations As previously noted, we understand the City is planning approximately 4.23 miles of infrastructure improvement projects, including 2.36 miles of mill-and-overlay and 1.87 miles of full-depth reclamation (FDR). City of New Hope Project B2207599 September 12, 2022 Page 6 C.1. Design and Construction Discussion C.1.a. Pavement Condition The City is utilizing a Pavement Rating Index (PRI) to rate the streets from 0 to 100 as follows: Excellent – PRI 81 to 100 Good – PRI 61 to 80 Poor – PRI 41 to 60 Very Poor – PRI 21 to 40 Failed – PRI 0 to 20 Based on our discussion, we understand the streets were being evaluated at the time of our report. Although we did not perform a review of pavement surface conditions, using the rating system described above, we assume the tested streets have likely deteriorated beyond the point of benefiting from any type of preventive maintenance, such as a seal coat. Instead, we assume the pavements are in need of some type of major repair that restores surface condition such as mill-and-overlay or FDR. C.1.b. Discussion of Planned Repairs As depicted on the map provided in Appendix A, streets depicted in green are planned for FDR. Streets depicted in blue are also planned for FDR but will also include watermain replacement work. The FDR process involves pulverizing and blending the existing bituminous pavement along with a portion of underlying aggregate base. In general, the reclaimed material can either be left in place or windrowed and stockpiled so that grading, excavation work, utility repairs or stabilization of subgrade soils can proceed. The left-in-place or replaced reclaim is then compacted and overlaid with bituminous pavement. From a design perspective, we provide the following considerations when performing FDR:  Reclamation should not extend into materials that are unsuitable for reclamation, such as silts and clays. Based on soil and hand auger boring results, underlying subgrade materials likely consist of clayey soils that should be avoided. During FDR, variation of existing pavement depth should be anticipated. Adjustments to the reclamation depth will be required where the pavement section depths change along each street. City of New Hope Project B2207599 September 12, 2022 Page 7  Based on the need to match existing curb sections, following reclamation, reclaimed material should be surface compacted and graded as new aggregate base. Excess material should be removed to allow the new bituminous overlay to match in-place curb lines. Slightly increasing the cross slope (crown) of the roadway could be considered to accommodate more reclaim material and improve drainage. Streets depicted in red are planned for mill-and-overlay. With a mill-and-overlay repair approach, we assume reflective cracking may occur quickly. It should be noted that sealing milled surfaces with a Texas Underseal should slow the progression of reflective cracking. Within the matrix, based on our testing and review of the available data, the planned repairs are noted as ideal or marginal. Mill-and-overlay streets with underlying stripping have been noted as marginal within the matrix. Mill-and-overlay can be performed on these streets; however, the underlying stripping may shorten the life provided by the repair. If desired, existing pavements materials that are milled or reclaimed can be used as recycled aggregate base or as a component to new pavements. We recommend implementing thorough quality control practices, including frequent sieve analyses, to achieve a desirable gradation of the reclaimed material. C.2. Full-Depth Reclamation C.2.a. Pulverization and Compaction We recommend following MnDOT Specification 2215 for FDR for the reclaiming process. Recommended reclaim depths are provided in the matrix. As thicknesses vary within the GPR scans, reclaim depths should be adjusted. Following reclamation, reclaimed material should be graded to allow for the required bituminous section. Any excess material should be removed. Following pulverization of the in-place materials, we recommend all exposed materials be surface compacted. City of New Hope Project B2207599 September 12, 2022 Page 8 C.2.b. Proofroll Following compaction, we recommend exposed materials be proof rolled to check for the presence of localized weak areas. The proofroll should be performed with a fully loaded, tandem axle dump truck at walking speed. The proofroll should be observed by a geotechnical engineer or qualified observer. Any detected weak areas should be corrected with a subcut and backfilled with excess reclaimed material or other suitable material such as MnDOT Class 5 aggregate base or Select Granular. C.2.c. Design Section We assume the City’s standard design for FDR will consist of the following pavement section:  3 inches SPWEA240C  Reclaim material (variable). C.3. Mill-and-Overlay For streets where mill-and-overlay will be performed, we recommend milling be performed to a depth of 2 to 2 1/2 inches with a minimum recommend thickness of 1 1/2 inches. We recommend a mix consisting of SPWEA240C. As previously noted, with a mill-and-overlay repair approach, we assume reflective cracking may occur quickly. To slow the progression of reflective cracking, the City could consider sealing milled surfaces with a Texas Underseal prior to the placement of the overlay. Furthermore, where possible, deeper mill depths will provide additional benefit to the mill-and-overlay approach by helping to prolong reflective cracking. C.4. Utilities C.4.a. Excavation Oversizing When removing unsuitable materials below utilities or pavements, we recommend extending the excavation outward and downward at a slope of 1H:1V (horizontal:vertical) or flatter. City of New Hope Project B2207599 September 12, 2022 Page 9 C.4.b. Subgrade Stabilization We anticipate the soils at typical invert elevations will generally be suitable for utility support. However, if construction encounters unfavorable conditions such as soft clay, organic soils or perched water at invert grades, the unsuitable soils may require some additional subcutting and replacement with sand or crushed rock to prepare a proper subgrade for pipe support. If these unsuitable or unstable soils remain in place, there is a risk of excessive settlement of the utility pipe or structures due to consolidation of the underlying soft clay soils. If crushed rock is used as pipe bedding, we recommend wrapping the aggregate in geotextile fabric to prevent the migration of fine-grained materials into the voids of the aggregate. We recommend a geotechnical engineer observe all utility trench excavations and subcuts. C.4.c. Excavated Slopes The on-site soils mostly appear to consist of soils meeting OSHA Type B requirements. In accordance with OSHA requirements, we recommend excavation side slopes be constructed to lie back at a slope of 1V:1H or flatter. However, in organic soils, or where saturated soils are present (including saturated sand seams), excavation side slopes may need to lie back at slopes of 1V:5H or flatter to prevent sloughing. All excavations must comply with the requirements of OSHA 29 CFR, Part 1926, Subpart P, “Excavations and Trenches.” This document states that excavation safety is the responsibility of the contractor. Reference to these OSHA requirements should be included in the project specifications. C.4.d. Corrosion Potential Based on our experience, the soils encountered within the borings are moderately corrosive to metallic conduits. We recommend specifying non-corrosive materials or providing corrosion protection, unless project planning chooses to perform additional tests to demonstrate the soils are not corrosive. D. Procedures D.1. Ground Penetrating Radar D.1.a. GPR Data Collection GPR data was collected on August 12, 2022. GPR collection occurred at posted speed limits and data was recorded continuously along the streets to a depth of up to 2 feet. Analysis of this data provides a continuous estimate of layer thickness for identifiable layers. City of New Hope Project B2207599 September 12, 2022 Page 10 Scans of the pavement were collected according to GSSI, Inc. (manufacturer) SIR-20 processor settings at a specified interval of approximately one scan per lineal foot in the outer wheel path in a single travel direction. A calibration file, required for data post-processing, was collected at the onset of testing. Distance along the roadway is measured using a Distance Measuring Instrument (DMI). D.1.b. GPR Analysis Data collected by the GPR unit was returned to our office and analyzed to estimate the pavement thickness. Pavement layer interpretation was accomplished using RADAN 7.0, a software package included with the GSSI RoadScan system. The software includes tools to aid in delineating pavement layer transitions and automatically calculates their depths from the pavement surface using the calibration file(s) collected prior to or following testing. Where “ground-truth” data (pavement cores, hand auger borings and soil borings) were performed, the interpreted layers from the GPR scan were compared directly to the measured thicknesses from the pavement cores and hand auger borings to validate the accuracy of the GPR analysis. D.2. Pavement Coring and Hand Auger Borings Pavement coring and hand auger borings were performed on August 24, 2022. Explorations were conducted within drive lanes using a 4-inch core barrel. The bituminous pavement was repaired with a cold-mix bituminous patch immediately after coring. The cores were measured to obtain approximate bituminous thickness and their material conditions were noted based on visual observation. Images of the cores can be found in the Core Photo Log attached to this report in Appendix D. D.3. Penetration Test Borings We drilled the penetration test borings with a truck-mounted core and auger drill equipped with hollow- stem auger. We performed the borings in general accordance with ASTM D6151 taking penetration test samples at 2 1/2-foot intervals in general accordance to ASTM D1586. The boring logs show the actual sample intervals and corresponding depths. We also collected bulk samples of auger cuttings at selected locations for laboratory testing. City of New Hope Project B2207599 September 12, 2022 Page 11 D.4. Exploration Logs D.4.a. Log of Boring Sheets The Appendix includes Log of Boring sheets for our penetration test borings. The logs identify and describe the penetrated geologic materials and present the results of penetration resistance and other in-situ tests performed. The logs also present the results of laboratory tests performed on penetration test samples and groundwater measurements. We inferred strata boundaries from changes in the penetration test samples and the auger cuttings. Because we did not perform continuous sampling, the strata boundary depths are only approximate. The boundary depths likely vary away from the boring locations, and the boundaries themselves may occur as gradual rather than abrupt transitions. D.4.b. Geologic Origins We assigned geologic origins to the materials shown on the logs and referenced within this report, based on: (1) a review of the background information and reference documents cited above, (2) visual classification of the various geologic material samples retrieved during the course of our subsurface exploration, (3) penetration resistance and other in-situ testing performed for the project, (4) laboratory test results, and (5) available common knowledge of the geologic processes and environments that have impacted the site and surrounding area in the past. D.5. Material Classification and Testing D.5.a. Visual and Manual Classification We visually and manually classified the geologic materials encountered based on ASTM D2488. When we performed laboratory classification tests, we used the results to classify the geologic materials in accordance with ASTM D2487. The Appendix includes a chart explaining the classification system we used. D.5.b. Laboratory Testing The exploration logs in the Appendix note most of the results of the laboratory tests performed on geologic material samples. The remaining laboratory test results follow the exploration logs. We performed the tests in general accordance with ASTM or AASHTO procedures. City of New Hope Project B2207599 September 12, 2022 Page 12 D.6. Groundwater Measurements The drillers checked for groundwater while advancing the penetration test borings, and again after auger withdrawal. We then filled the boreholes, as noted on the boring logs. E. Qualifications E.1. Continuity of Professional Responsibility E.1.a. Plan Review We based this report on a limited amount of information, and we made a number of assumptions to help us develop our recommendations. We should be retained to review the geotechnical aspects of the designs and specifications. This review will allow us to evaluate whether we anticipated the design correctly, if any design changes affect the validity of our recommendations, and if the design and specifications correctly interpret and implement our recommendations. E.1.b. Construction Observations and Testing We recommend retaining us to perform the required observations and testing during construction as part of the ongoing geotechnical evaluation. This will allow us to correlate the subsurface conditions exposed during construction with those encountered by the borings and provide professional continuity from the design phase to the construction phase. If we do not perform observations and testing during construction, it becomes the responsibility of others to validate the assumption made during the preparation of this report and to accept the construction-related geotechnical engineer-of-record responsibilities. E.2. Use of Report This report is for the exclusive use of the addressed parties. Without written approval, we assume no responsibility to other parties regarding this report. Our evaluation, analyses and recommendations may not be appropriate for other parties or projects. City of New Hope Project B2207599 September 12, 2022 Page 13 E.3.

By: Bernie Weber, Public Works Director    Agenda Title  Resolution approving Change Order No. 5 for $18,654.60 with Rochon Corporation for Phase 1  Improvements at the Public Works Facility (Improvement Project No. 1039)    Requested Action  Staff recommends approval of Change Order No. 5 to the contract for Phase 1 Improvements at the Public  Works Facility (Improvement Project No. 1039) in the amount of $18,654.60.     Policy/Past Practice  The City Council considers change orders when unforeseen circumstances arise, or changes are recommended  for a city project. Staff and the city engineer discussed upcoming change orders with the council at the October  17 work session.     Background  The City Council awarded a construction contract to Rochon Corporation at the May 24, 2021 council meeting  in the amount of $2,316,000. Stantec architects and engineers are providing oversight.    Since the start of the project, the following change orders have been approved:    Change Order  Item Amount  Change Order  No. 1 – 7/26/21  Floor sink/drain, venting, and temporary compressor/water heater  relocation, replace concrete aprons, and concrete slab credit.  $15,635.68  Change Order  No. 2 – 10/11/21  Owner removed trees credit, elimination of two windows and removal of  exhaust fan credit, spray foam masonry cells, additional B618 concrete

Network switch allowance, IT room filter ventilation, concrete walk by  gates/island area, concrete apron by north entrance, additional concrete at  sand interceptors, overhead door loop detector, and alterations to soil  storage building.  $83,108.11  Change Order  No. 4 – 2/28/22  Spread and compact city supplied Class 5 aggregate base, relocate RTU‐2  unit, replace three‐phase with single phase exhaust fan, and temporary  asphalt ramps and striping.  $11,888.30   Total of change order numbers 1‐4 $117,745.82       Agenda Section Development &  Planning Item Number  8.1  Change Order No. 5 includes the following items:    Additional Light Fixtures and Long‐Range RFID Readers  The existing gates did not have lighting and lighting was not proposed with the new gates. Adding LED  lighting at the gate areas will improve security and aid camera operations during night time hours. ($3,578 x  1.05% (overhead/profit) = $3,756.90) Also, the radio frequency identification (RFID) long range readers and  vehicle windshield tags for the gate entrances were not included in the original bid. Only the card access  readers for the gate entrances were included and adding RFID long range readers is requested for the larger  equipment where the card reader is difficult to reach. ($8,474 x 1.05% (overhead/profit) = $8,897.70) Cost of  new light fixtures and long‐range RFID readers = $3,756.90 + $8,897.70 = $12,654.60 (add to the contract).    Price Increase for Wear Course Paving in 2022 and Patching Related Work  Poor soils near the soil storage building led to redesign and delays during the start of construction. There were  also other project delays that led to the final lift of bituminous not being placed in fall 2021. After the  freeze/thaw cycle, some soft spots appeared in the bituminous base.     Bituminous and labor pricing increased from 2021 to 2022. The contractor’s paving subcontractor requested  $17,059.12 for bituminous cost increases and $12,750 for correcting soft spots, so a total of $29,809.12. Most of  the soft spots were related to the contractor’s utility work, and the general contractor and the utility  subcontractor need to address the costs to fix those areas. There was a soft area at the north entrance to the  Public Works Facility that was not a contractor issue. Public Works staff corrected the subgrade in that area;  however, repaving of the bituminous base was needed after the correction.     City staff understood some delays related to paving the parking lot and the soils storage building area were  beyond the contractor’s control. The city also needed the bituminous base repaved near the north entrance.  Staff negotiated a $6,000 amount for the additional costs associated with material and labor increases for  paving in 2022 and repaving a city related patch area. Costs for increases for wear course paving in 2022 and  patching related work = $6,000 (add to the contract).    Change Order No. 5 includes the addition, as follows:    Add new light fixtures and long‐range RFID readers $ 12,654.60  Add  Price increase for wear course paving in 2022 and patching related work $ 6,000.00 Add  Total Change Order No. 5 $ 18,654.60  Add    Inclusion of Change Order No. 5 revises the contract amount to $2,452,400.42.      Funding  At the June 24, 2021 council meeting a separate capital fund for the public works facility was established in the  amount of $2,550,000. The contract award was $2,316,000 and indirect costs were estimated at $192,280, for a  total estimated project cost of $2,508,280. At the November 8, 2021 council meeting, the council approved the  transfer of city hall bond proceeds in the amount of $400,000 to the public works capital fund. At the January  24, 2022 council meeting, the council approved a transfer of CARE’S ACT funds from Temporary Financing to  the public works capital fund. There are adequate funds to pay for the change orders.

Attest: ________________________  City Clerk    Stantec Consulting Services Inc. 733 Marquette Avenue, Suite 1000 Minneapolis, MN 55402 October 18, 2022 File:193804913 Attention: Bernie Weber, Director of Public Works City of New Hope 5500 International Parkway New Hope, MN 55428 Reference: Change Order No. 5 – New Hope Public Works Facility – Phase 1 Improvements City Project No: 1039 Dear Bernie, The above referenced change order relates to the following items: (1)Add new light fixtures and long-range RFID readers. The existing gates did not have lighting and no lighting was proposed with the new gates. Adding LED lighting at the gate areas will improve security and aid camera operations during nighttime hours. ($3,578 x 1.05% (overhead/profit) = $3,756.90) Also, the radio frequency identification (RFID) long range readers and vehicle windshield tags for the gate entrances were not included in the original bid. Only the card access readers for the gate entrances were included and adding RFID long range readers is requested for the larger equipment where the card reader is difficult to reach. ($8,474 x 1.05% (overhead/profit) = $8,897.70) Cost of new light fixtures and long-range RFID readers = $3,756.90 + $8,897.70 = $12,654.60 (add to the contract). (2)Price increases for wear course paving in 2022 and patching related work. Pour soils near the soil storage building led to redesign and delays in its start of construction. There were also other project delays that led to the final lift of bituminous not being placed in fall 2021. After the freeze/thaw cycle, some soft spots showed up in the bituminous base. Bituminous and labor pricing increased from 2021 to 2022. The contractor’s paving subcontractor requested $17,059.12 for bituminous cost increases and $12,750.00 for correcting soft spots, so a total of $29,809.12. Most of the soft spots were related to the contractor’s utility work, and the general contractor and the utility subcontractor need to address the costs to fix those areas. There was a soft area at the north entrance to the Public Works Facility that was not a contractor issue. Public Works staff corrected the October 18, 2022 Bernie Weber Page 2 of 2 Reference: Change Order No. 5 – New Hope Public Works Facility – Phase 1 Improvements subgrade in that area; however, repaving of the bituminous base was needed after the correction. City staff understood some delays related to paving the parking lot and the soils storage building area were beyond the contractor’s control. The city also needed the bituminous base repaved near the north entrance. Staff negotiated a $6,000 amount for the additional costs associated with material and labor increases for paving in 2022 and repaving a city related patch area. Costs for increases for wear course paving in 2022 and patching related work = $6,000.00 (add to the contract). The total of the two change order items is an addition of $18,654.60 to the Revised Contract. The Revised Contract amount will be $2,452,400.42 ($2,316,000 (Original Contract) + $15,635.68 (Change Order No. 1) + $7,113.73 (Change Order No. 2) + $83,108.11 (Change Order No. 3) + $11,888.30 (Change Order No. 4) + $18,654.60 (Change Order No. 5)). Change Order No. 5 as well as pending change orders were reviewed by the Council at the October 17, 2022 Work Session. We recommend approval of the work described above and included in Change Order No. 5. If you have any questions or require further information, please call me at (612) 712-2021.
