Subject: Agenda Items for Monday, August 28, 2023
Open Forum
We are not aware of anyone who intends to address Council for the open forum.
Item 5.1
This is the annual presentation of the RAVE! Awards. The RAVE! Award recognizes outstanding residential
property maintenance and improvements made by New Hope residential property owners. A judging panel
is used to select award recipients. The award recipients have been invited to attend the meeting for
recognition. Staff requests that Council thank the judges and all nominees for their time and effort.
Items 6.1, 6.2, and 6.3
Item 6.1 – there are no new business license requests.
Item 6.2 ‐ involves routine financial claims.
Item 6.3 – there are no new liability claims.
Item 6.4
This item approves a three‐year contract renewal with Abdo for financial management services for
years 2024‐2026. Funds are included in the city’s annual budget. Council discussed the contract at the
August 21 work session and expressed support. I recommend approval.
Item 6.5
This item waives $40 of permit fees for temporary signs for the Cooper Craft Fair sponsored by the New
Hope Women of Today. The event will be held on October 28 at Cooper High School. The fundraiser
supports college scholarships for students of District 281 and other local charities. Approximately 30 small
signs will be placed in the community from October 22‐29, 2023. Council typically waives fees for
community events sponsored by non‐profit organizations. Director Sargent and I recommend approval.
Item 6.6
House of Hope Lutheran Church at 4800 Boone Avenue North has requested a temporary liquor license for
beer sales at their Oktoberfest event on September 16. Identification will be checked to ensure there is no
underage sales. The applicant has requested the city waive the $50 application fee. If this item is
Page 2
approved, the police department will conduct a compliance check during the event. City Clerk Leone
and I recommend approval.
Item 6.7
This resolution approves the final payment of $10,865.29 to Insituform Technologies USA, LLC for the
2022 and 2023 sanitary sewer lining projects. The contractor completed the work, and the final cost was
$26,263 under the revised contracted amount of $556,690. The underrun was primarily due to sewer
pipe joint grouting not being necessary based on existing pipe conditions. The final payment will not
be released by Finance until the necessary IC‐134s are submitted to the city. Director Weber and I
recommend approval.
Item 8.1
This item authorizes preparation of a feasibility report for the 2024 infrastructure project based on
streets included in the pavement management plan. The preliminary cost estimate is $2,435,850 for the
utility and street work. The report will be presented to Council in October. Director Weber and I
recommend approval.
Item 10.1
This item approves West Metro’s 2024 budget of $3,364,500 of which New Hope’s share is $1,729,883.
Chief Larson reviewed the budget with the Council at its August 21 work session. The budget increase
from last year is $333,310. The cost of fire services is included in the city’s general fund budget. The
increases are for salaries, PERA, health insurance, workers comp insurance, financial services and
communications. The Fire Board unanimously recommended approval of the budget at their July 12
board meeting. The joint powers agreement requires both cities to approve West Metro’s budget by
August 31. The Crystal City Council approved the budget at their August 15 Council Meeting. I
recommend approval.
Item 10.2
This item approves an ordinance amendment regarding natural landscapes so the city’s code aligns
with state law. The ordinance was drafted by the city attorney and is supported by the city forester. I
recommend approval.
Item 12.1
Mayor Hemken will review the list of upcoming events/meetings.
EDA #4
The EDA acquired 5802 Boone Avenue North in April of 2023 as part of the city’s scattered site housing
program. Demolition work was completed in July of 2023, and the lot has been prepared for
construction of a new single‐family home. Staff recommends selling the property to Great Buy Homes,
Inc. for $70,000 for construction of a split‐level design home that would have a projected sales price of
$475,000 to $480,000. Great Buy Homes has constructed many quality homes in the city. The EDA is
asked to approve the purchase and redevelopment agreement for the sale of the lot. The agreement
Page 3
ensures that the builder meets the conditions set forth in the RFP. The home will be completed within a
year of the closing date. Director Sargent and I recommend approval.
EDA #5
In June of 2023 the EDA acquired the single‐family home located at 4965 Winnetka Avenue North as
part of the city’s scattered site housing program. Bids were solicited to prepare the site for
redevelopment for construction of two homes. The low bid was submitted by Bollig & Sons, Inc. for
$67,000 with a negative TCLP test on remaining debris or $69,000 with a positive TCLP test. The work
includes hazardous material abatement, well sealing, removal of appliances prior to controlled burn,
demolition and disposal of remaining material following burn, tree removal, sewer lining and water
service valve replacement for existing services, installation of new sewer services, water services, and
sump pump stub for future second lot, and site grading. Bollig & Sons has been serving the metro area
since 1957. The city has not used the services of Bollig & Sons in the past, but Donnay Homes, a
scattered site homebuilder that has built in New Hope, has worked with them on previous projects and
recommends the company. The EDA budget would fund the contract. Director Sargent and I
recommend approval.
If you have any questions regarding items in the agenda packet, please contact me prior to the
meeting so that staff can research any issues and be prepared to respond at the meeting.

Since 2006, the RAVE! Awards have recognized the efforts of residential property owners who contribute time
and resources to maintaining or improving residential properties in the city.
Background
In an effort to acknowledge outstanding residential property maintenance and improvements completed by
New Hope residents, the RAVE! residential property recognition program was developed in 2006. The program
allows the City Council the opportunity to formally recognize and thank residents who have accomplished
outstanding property maintenance and improvements. It encourages other residents to rise to the level of
excellence achieved by recipients of the award and highlights methods that can be utilized to enhance and
improve properties within the city.
Award Categories
Award categories were created as guidelines and were intended to be flexible to accommodate several types of
nominations. As described in the program information, if multiple outstanding nominations are received, the
city may choose to present more than one award in any given category. The general award categories include:
Outstanding general property maintenance and improvements
Outstanding remodel, renovation, or addition
Outstanding landscaping
Outstanding gardens
Outstanding environmentally sensitive improvements (i.e., use of rain gardens, green building
techniques, and storm water management)
Nominations, Judging, and Winners
Nominations were accepted through July 21, 2023, and a total of eight properties were nominated for awards.
On July 25, 2023, a volunteer panel of three judges toured the properties that were nominated and elected to
participate. The judges included 2021 RAVE! winner Barb Kuchenbecker, Human Rights Commission

Approved by: Reece Bertholf, City Manager
Originating Department: City Manager
By: Valerie Leone, City Clerk‐Treas.
Agenda Title
Resolution Approving Three‐Year Contract Renewal with Abdo for Professional Financial Management
Services for Years 2024‐2026
Requested Action
Staff recommends Council renew the contract with Abdo.
Policy/Past Practice
The city enters into contracts for professional services on an as needed basis.
Background
The city has utilized the financial management services of Abdo since December 2008 when the finance
manager and several other finance department positions were vacated. The current contract expires on
December 31, 2023.
Abdo assists the city by providing the following services:
Finance director services (one day per week office hours)
Preparation for the annual financial audit
Assisting with preparation of annual city budget
Prepares and updates the city’s ten‐year long‐term financial plan
Provides annual economic development cash flow analysis of TIF districts
Provides guidance on implementing new accounting standards, legislative changes impacting the
budget
Weekly meetings with finance team to provide work direction
Assists with financial policy updates as needed
The proposal details the scope of services on pages 8‐10. Fees for special projects outside the scope of services
are approved on a case‐by‐case basis. The most recent special project software evaluation for the enterprise
resource planning (ERP) system ($22,500 for software evaluation and $7,500 for chart of accounts mapping).
Implementation of the new ERP system is considered a special project for 2025, and Abdo estimates the
project management cost will be $28,500 (the project is fully described on pages 11‐14).
Abdo has prepared a new three‐year contract for Council’s consideration with a term from January 1, 2024,
through December 31, 2026, as follows:
Year Cost
Current cost $137,250
2024 $156,500
2025 $164,300
2026 $172,400
Agenda Section
Consent
Item Number
6.4
Request for Action, Page 2
As the council is aware, Abdo was successful in getting the city’s finance department back on sound footing
after several staffing changes took place in 2008‐2009. Several accomplishments have been achieved since the
implementation of Abdo’s services, including quarterly budget/investment reports, improvements to the
budget format, updating the investment policy, overall better understanding of the city funds, accurate audit
information, upgrading the city’s credit rating by Standard & Poors, development of ten year financial plan
and improvements to the CIP budget. The city has also received the excellence in financial reporting
certificate from the Government Finance Officers Association for the past 13 years (2009‐2021), and an
application has been submitted for 2022. These certificates would not have been possible without Abdo’s
work on behalf of the city.
As has been discussed in the past, this is a unique approach to contract for financial oversight services, but
the advantage has been that Abdo can provide a broad spectrum of services. Abdo is aware that sometime in
the future the city may decide to hire a finance director and other finance personnel, and they are agreeable to
assisting the city with that process. However, at this time, the city manager is recommending the city
continue its working relationship with Abdo to continue to improve efficiencies, address budget challenges
and continue to improve the financial condition of the city. Over the past several years, West Metro Fire‐
Rescue District and the city of Crystal have both started utilizing the services of Abdo.
Recommendation
Staff recommends renewing the contract. Funds have been included in the proposed 2024 budget. Council
discussed the matter at its work session of August 21 and was supportive of renewing the contract.

Dear Valerie,
Thank you for the opportunity to submit this proposal to the City of New Hope, Minnesota (the City) for accounting
services. Based on our past experience with the City of New Hope, and cities of comparable size and complexity, we
believe our structured contract with defined outcomes offered through Abdo Financial Solutions, LLC (Abdo FS) would
provide the City with excellent financial services.
We believe our solution will result in the City receiving high-level information, continual improvement of processes and

Approved by: Reece Bertholf, City Manager
Originating Department: Public Works
By: Bernie Weber, Director
Agenda Title
Resolution authorizing final payment to Insituform Technologies USA, LLC., in the amount of $10,865.29 for
the 2022 and 2023 Sanitary Sewer Lining Project (Improvement Project No. 1086)
Requested Action
Staff recommends that Council pass a resolution and authorize final payment to Insituform Technologies
USA, LLC., in the amount of $10,865.29 for the 2022 and 2023 Sanitary Sewer Lining project.
Policy/Past Practice
The city has a long history of completing initiatives to reduce inflow and infiltration (I/I) in our sanitary
sewer system. These efforts include replacement of center hole sanitary sewer manhole covers with solid
covers in low areas of the city prone to street flooding, and yearly lining and televising of the sewer system.
Metropolitan Council Environmental Services has determined that lining sanitary sewer pipe reduces the
impact of excessive I/I and extends the life of the sanitary sewer infrastructure.
Background
Staff recommended that the city continue lining sections of sewer pipe in areas that have been identified with
I/I issues. Aside from the benefit of reducing I/I, the lining of sections of sanitary sewer pipe in the city also
extends the useful life of the sanitary sewer infrastructure. To save on engineering and construction cost the
2022 and 2023 lining projects were bid together as one project. The 2022 lining project included
approximately 2,527 feet of sanitary sewer mains and the 2023 lining project included approximately 3,737
feet of sanitary sewer mains.
The contractor completed the work in accordance with the contract plans and specifications and is in the
process of submitting final closeout forms. Therefore, it is recommended that the City of New Hope accepts
the project and approves final payment of $10,865.29. However, the city should hold the final payment
contingent upon receipt of the final closeout forms.
Funding
The sanitary sewer lining project is listed in the 2022 CIP at $350,000 and the 2023 CIP at $350,000. The final
construction amount is $530,426.30, or $26,263.80 under the revised contract amount of $556,690.10. The
revised contract amount includes sanitary sewer lining work on Xylon Avenue near Begin Park that was
identified by public works staff during cleaning and jetting operations as needing immediate repair. The
underrun was primarily due to sewer pipe joint grouting not being necessary based on existing pipe
conditions.

Agenda Title
Resolution authorizing the preparation of a feasibility report for construction of the 2024 Infrastructure
Improvement Project (Improvement Project No. 1107)
Requested Action
Staff recommends that Council approve a resolution authorizing the city engineer, Stantec, to proceed in the
preparation of a feasibility report for construction of the 2024 Infrastructure Improvement Project
(Improvement Project No. 1107).
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 2024 infrastructure improvements will be completed on streets included in the Pavement Management
Plan as shown on the attached Project Map. The feasibility report will outline the proposed improvements and
determine the project need and cost effectiveness. The report will break down the project into logical sections
of improvements. This allows the city to adjust the scope of the project depending on budgetary constraints.
This feasibility report will also identify all tax‐exempt properties that will be affected by this work and provide
an estimated assessment rate for these properties. These assessments will be one funding source for the project.
Funding
The major source of funding for the project will be the city’s street infrastructure funds. The preliminary cost
estimate for the mill and overlay, reclaim and overlay, and utility work coordinated by the city is $2,435,850.82.

Authorize Preparation of Feasibility Report (City Project No. 1107)
Dear Bernie,
As identified on the City’s Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and Pavement Management Plan
(PMP) along with updates done in summer of 2023, street and utility improvements are scheduled
in various areas of New Hope in 2024. Street improvements are shown on the attached map.
To be consistent with past processes when doing infrastructure projects, we recommend the
Council authorizes preparation of a feasibility report. The feasibility report will outline the proposed
improvements and determine the project need and cost effectiveness. The report will break
down the project into logical sections of improvements. This allows the city to adjust the scope of
the project depending on budgetary constraints. The feasibility report would be for the city of
New Hope coordinated projects.
The preliminary project cost estimate for the mill and overlay, reclaim and overlay, and utility work
coordinated by the city is $2,435,850.82 as shown in the attached cost estimate.
The report on the New Hope coordinated projects could be presented to the Council in October.
If the Council decides to move forward with the project, plans could be prepared over the fall/
winter. The project could be scheduled for bid in January or February, with construction to begin
in the spring of 2024.
If you have any questions or require further information, please call me at (612) 712-2021.
Sincerely,
STANTEC

Resolution Approving West Metro Fire‐Rescue District 2024 Budget
Requested Action
Staff recommends the City Council approve the attached resolution approving the 2024 West Metro
Fire‐Rescue District budget. The budget was unanimously approved by the Fire Board at their July 12 board
meeting. The Council reviewed and discussed the budget at the August 21 work session with Chief Larson
and was supportive of the budget request. Council Member Elder serves as the New Hope Council
Representative on the board. Marc Berris serves on the Board as the New Hope citizen representative. The
city managers from both cities also serve on the Board.
Policy/Past Practice
West Metro Fire‐Rescue District was formed in 1998 as a joint powers agreement between the cities of New
Hope and Crystal. The agreement was updated and approved by both city councils in 2011, 2017 and July
2019. Article VIII of the agreement provides the budget timeline for the fire district budget request. It states
“by no later than August 31 each council shall notify the board and the other council of its acceptance of the
budget or its recommendations for changes to the budget.” The Crystal City Council approved the budget at
their August 15 council meeting.
2024 Budget
The proposed 2023 budget is attached and includes maintaining eight full‐time members serving as daytime
duty crew (also responsible for department operations including inspections, public education, community
outreach, finance/payroll, records management, IT, human resources, emergency management,
apparatus/equipment maintenance and training) and maintaining up to 66 paid on call firefighters (WMFRD
currently has 49 paid on call firefighters).
The total 2024 budget is $3,364,500, which is a $333,310 increase over the 2023 budget of $3,031,190. The
general operating budget increase is $183,310 or 7.5%, based on an additional full‐time staff member, salaries,
incentive pay for paid‐on‐call firefighters, PERA, workers comp. insurance, medical exams, financial services
and communications. There is a $20,000 increase to the special revenue pension fund contribution. The
contributions to the budget from cities include a $103,600 lease payment for the aerial truck (tower) and
$150,000 lease payment for the new engines.
The costs of the budget are split between the two cities based on a cost sharing formula that includes average
number of calls over a five‐year period, population, and taxable market value. Based on the 2024 preliminary
budget, New Hope’s increase is $178,066 or 11.5%. New Hope’s share of the total budget is $1,729,883 or
51.4158%. Crystal’s share of the budget is $1,634,619 or 48.5842%. Per the chart below, New Hope’s market
values increased more than the market values in Crystal between 2022 and 2023, and the average number of
calls for service were greater.

believes this is a reasonable budget and recommends approval of the resolution approving the budget.

Sec. 9-70. Maintenance of vegetation and weed elimination.
(a) Offensive vegetation declared nuisance.
(1) In general. No landowner, agent or occupant of any privately owned lands or premises shall permit
upon the owner's premises any noxious weeds as are defined in Minnesota Statutes or Minnesota
Rules as to constitute a nuisance. Except as part of a managed natural landscape as defined in this
section, any weeds or grass, including turf grass, growing upon any lot or parcel of land in the city to a
greater height than eight inches or which have gone or are about to go to seed are hereby declared to
be a nuisance condition and dangerous to the health, safety and good order of the city. Fallen trees,
fallen tree limbs, dead trees, dead tree limbs, which in the opinion of the city tree inspector constitute
a health, safety or fire hazard, are also declared to be a nuisance condition.
(2) Right to install and maintain a managed natural landscape or shoreland buffer strip. A landowner,
authorized agent, or authorized occupant of any privately owned lands or premises may, consistent
with this section and all other applicable laws, statutes, rules and ordinances, install and maintain a
managed natural landscape or shoreland buffer strip, provided it is maintained free of noxious weeds,
invasive or nuisance plants, complies with the sight triangle setback requirements for corner lots per
subsection 4-3(c)(6)d. of this Code, does not impair sight distances generally and does not constitute a
public nuisance to the public or residents of the immediate vicinity.
(3) Definitions. For purposes of this section, the following terms shall have the following meanings:
a. Landowner or owner means the person who is listed as the contact person on the current rental
licensing application on file with the city, if any, or, if none, the person listed as owner by the
county assessor on the homestead record, or, if none, the taxpayer as shown by the records of
the county assessor.
b. Managed natural landscape means a planned, intentional and maintained planting of native
plants, wildflowers, forbs, ferns, shrubs or trees, including but not limited to rain gardens,
meadow vegetation, and ornamental plantings. Managed natural landscape does not include a
garden dedicated to growing vegetables, fruits, flowers, groundcovers, shrubs and similar plants
that are planted in a well-defined area.
c. Meadow vegetation means grasses and flowering broad-leaf plants that are native to, or adapted
to, the state, and that are commonly found in meadow and prairie plant communities, not
including noxious weeds.
d. Native plants means those grasses (including prairie grasses), sedges (solid, triangular-stemmed
plants resembling grasses), forbs (flowering broadleaf plants), trees and shrubs that are plant
species native to or naturalized to the state, excluding prohibited exotic species, as defined by
Minn. Stat. ch. 84D. Native plants do not include weeds.
e. Noxious weed shall have the meaning assigned by Minn. Stat. § 18.77, subd. 8.
f. Ornamental plants means grasses, perennials, annuals and groundcovers purposefully planted for
aesthetic reasons. Ornamental plants do not include turfgrasses or weeds.
g. Rain garden means a native plant garden that is designed not only to aesthetically improve
properties, but also to reduce the amount of stormwater and accompanying pollutants from
entering streams, lakes and rivers.
h. Shoreland buffer strip means that area of any lawn or yard within 25 feet of the shoreline of a
"waterbody" as defined by section 4-2 of this Code or a "natural water course" as defined by
section 1-2 of this Code. A shoreland buffer strip may include taller grasses, blooming plants,

(Supp. No. 60)
Page 2 of 3
shrubs and trees and all forms of aquatic plants such as cattails, rushes and lilies. Shoreland
buffer strips do not include noxious weed. For purposes of this section shoreline means the
"normal high water mark" as defined by section 4-2 of this Code.
i. Turf-grass lawn means a lawn comprised mostly of grasses commonly used in regularly cut lawns
or play areas (such as but not limited to bluegrass, fescue, and ryegrass blends), intended to be
maintained at a height of no more than eight inches.
(4) Findings. The city council finds that the installation and maintenance of managed natural landscapes
and shoreland buffer strips are beneficial to the city's environment and its residents and serves to
further adopted city goals in that managed natural landscapes and shoreland buffer strips require
fewer potentially harmful and costly inputs, improves stormwater retention, increases water quality
and biodiversity, reduces greenhouse gas emissions, and provides habitat for wildlife such as birds,
butterflies and other beneficial insects and species.
(5) Requirements. Managed natural landscapes and shoreland buffer strips may include plants and grasses
in excess of eight inches in height and which have gone to seed, but may not include any noxious
weeds and must be maintained so as to not include unintended vegetation. Also, managed natural
landscapes or shoreland buffer strips may not include any plantings, which due to location and manner
of growth constitute a hazard to the public or may cause injury or damage to persons or property, nor
shall managed natural landscapes include turf-grass lawns left unattended for the purpose of returning
to a natural state. Shoreland buffer strips may however consist of unattended turf-grass lawns.
(b) Abatement of offensive conditions and vegetation—Notice.
(1) Published statutory weed notice. On or before May 15 of each year, the clerk shall publish a general
notice for noxious weed control or eradication in the official newspaper as prescribed by Minn. Stat. §
18.83, directing owners and occupants of property within the city to destroy all noxious weeds and
stating that if not destroyed within seven days of notice, the weeds will be destroyed by the
department of public works at the expense of the owner and if not paid, the charge for such work will
be made a special assessment against the property concerned.
(2) Individual notice. When the city finds it necessary to secure a more definite control or eradication of
noxious weeds or removal of fallen trees, fallen tree limbs, dead trees, and dead tree limbs, which in
the opinion of the city tree inspector constitute a health, safety or fire hazard, and there exists on
specific private property a condition which is in violation of this section, a written notice to remove the
offensive matter or correct the nuisance condition shall be served upon the landowner by the city
manager or the manager's authorized representatives. Such notice must be served to the violator in
person or by regular mail. Such notice shall describe the matter to be removed and require removal
thereof within seven days following service of the notice. If at the end of said seven days following
service of such notice the offensive matter has not been removed, or the nuisance condition corrected,
the city shall cause the correction or removal and disposition of the offensive matter or nuisance
condition.
(3) Repeat offenders. For properties in which there have been two or more individual notices issued to
remove offensive matter or to correct nuisance conditions within the prior 12-month period,
compliance with the individual notice provision of subsection (b)(2) of this section shall not be
required. For these properties, the second notice issued to the landowner within a 12-month period
shall contain a general notice that the city may abate future violations of this section without providing
additional specific notice of the violation. This general notice shall remain in effect for 12 months from
the date it is served or mailed. This notice shall inform the landowner that the costs incurred by the
city will be assessed pursuant to the procedure set forth by subsection (d) this section.
(c) Removal by city. If the owner or occupant of any property in the city fails to comply with the notice provided
above within seven days after its publication or service, the department of public works shall cut and remove

(Supp. No. 60)
Page 3 of 3
such weeds, trees or limbs. The department shall keep a record showing the cost of such work attributable to
each separate lot and parcel and shall deliver such information to the clerk.
(d) Assessment. On or before September 1 of each year, the clerk shall list the total unpaid charges for the weed
or tree removal against each separate lot or parcel to which they are attributable under this section. The
council may then spread the charges against property benefitted as a special assessment under Minn. Stat. §
429.101 and other pertinent statutes for certification to the county auditor and collection the following year
along with current taxes.
(e) Penalty for interference. Any person who interferes with a city employee or other authorized person in the
performance of his duties under subsection (c) of this section is guilty of a misdemeanor, but a prosecution
shall be brought for such violation only on the direction of the council.
