(8) Customer Service: Creating a Customer Experience That is Respectful, Responsive and Solution-
Oriented:

Zoning Administrator Marty Schmitz presented a request to approve the Interim Use Permit (IUP) for
MSC-Scott-01 (Minnesota Solar Connection) to construct and operate a 1 megawatt community solar energy
system in Section 19 of Spring Lake Township. Mr. Schmitz introduced Andy Melka, Vice President of
Development for Minnesota Solar Connection (MSC), who reviewed the proposed project including the site
plan, hydrology and grading of the site, operations and maintenance of the system, decommissioning plan,
landscaping and screening, and the benefits of the project.

Mr. Melka responded to questions and comments from the Commissioners regarding screening, anti-glare
treatment, intent to stay in close contact with neighboring property owners during construction and operation,
intent to be respectful of the proposed interim use permit (IUP) conditions, and lack of comments received from
the airstrip located nearby.

Mr. Schmitz stated a public hearing was held at the July 10, 2017, Scott County Planning Advisory
Commission meeting and opposition comments were received from US Solar, a competing solar company,
who was proposing a solar garden project approximately one mile from this site. In March of 2017 the County
Board approved an amendment to the Zoning Ordinance regarding solar gardens which requires a two mile
buffer between solar gardens. MSCs application was received on April 18 and US Solar submitted an
application on April 19. Staff deemed both applications complete and rejected the application from US Solar
as it came in after MSCs application. US Solar is questioning the completeness of MSCs application and the
size of the project. Mr. Schmitz reported the Spring Lake Town Board and the Scott County Planning Advisory
Commission recommended approval of the IUP based on the criteria listed for approval.

In response to Commissioner Beards question, County Administrator Gary Shelton advised this is not a
public hearing; however, that does not preclude the Board from taking comments.

Attorney Andrew Gibbons of Stinson Leonard Street representing US Solar addressed the Board
regarding their perception of MSCs application being incomplete. He stated at the time of application there
was no evidence of site control and no interconnection agreement. Mr. Gibbons also questioned whether the
MSC site exceeded the size limitation set in the Zoning Ordinance. Mr. Gibbons stated that due to the
incompleteness of the MSC application it should be rejected and US Solars application should be accepted.

County Attorney Ron Hocevar stated his office has been working with Planning staff and has reviewed
both applications. The concerns raised by Mr. Gibbons have been vetted by the County Attorneys office and
the Planning Advisory Commission. Mr. Hocevar stated it is the opinion of his office that all processes and
ordinances have been followed appropriately and his office supports the Planning staffs recommendation to
approve MSCs request.

On the recommendation of the Spring Lake Town Board and the Planning Advisory Commission,
Commissioner Beer moved, seconded by Commissioner Ulrich to approve the Interim Use Permit for MSC-
Scott 01 (Minnesota Solar Connection) to construct and operate a 1 megawatt community solar energy system
in Section 19 of Spring Lake Township. This action is in accordance with Chapters 2, 12, and 30 of Scott
County Zoning Ordinance No. 3 based on the criteria listed for approval. The motion carried unanimously.

(9) Innovation: Exploring and Adopting New Technologies and Processes With the Goal of Improving
Service and Reducing the Long Term Cost of Service Delivery:

Property Tax and Customer Service Manager Cindy Geis presented the request to enter into a Services
and Software License and Support Agreement with CityView for the implementation of Cityview Portal,
CityView Electronic Plans Review, CityView Mobile, CityView MS Word Add-in and related configuration
services and refinements. Ms. Geis stated in October of 2006 the County Board approved the acquisition of
CityView software which would provide a single source application for the planning and zoning, building
inspections, environmental health, natural resources, soil and water, and highway departments. The software
was intended to automate development and inspection processes, improve access to information, improve
customer response times, and integrate systems.

Ms. Geis stated the modules/upgrades in todays request will allow access to a customer portal where
customers will be able to submit building permit applications, upload electronic building plans, pay fees, review
permit status, and schedule building inspections. In addition, these modules/upgrades will provide inspectors
with the tools needed to maximize their field time and productivity, allow users to create standardized
correspondence templates, and combine electronic submission, versioning, and workflow capabilities for
integrated electronic plan review, management of marked up documents, and online collaboration with other
staff and the customer.

Ms. Geis added funding for this project, including the maintenance and support, will be paid from the
building permit improvement fees and will not require use of levy dollars.

Commissioner Wolf moved, seconded by Commissioner Weckman Brekke to adopt Resolution No. 2017-
113; Authorizing Entering Into a Services and Software License and Support Agreement With CityView for the
Implementation of CityView Portal, CityView Electronic Plans Review, CityView Mobile MS Word Add-in, and
Related Configuration Services and Refinements. A copy of the resolution is available in the office of the
County Administrator and is made a part of this record by reference. The motion carried unanimously.
(10) Partnership: Aligning Existing Resources, Volunteers and Programs to Achieve Shared Goals:

Mr. Shelton requested the County Board authorize execution of a Quit Claim Deed conveying excess
County highway right-of-way adjacent to County Highway (CH) 82 and CH 82 to the Shakopee Mdewakanton
Sioux Community (SMSC). On June 6, 2017, the County Board adopted Resolution No. 2017-088 authorizing
execution of a Memorandum of Understanding between Scott County and the SMSC approving the terms of
the land sale but it did not authorize the actual sale.

Commissioner Wolf moved, seconded by Commissioner Ulrich to adopt Resolution No. 2017-120;
Authorizing the Execution of a Quit Claim Deed Conveying Excess County Highway Right-of-Way Adjacent to
County Highway 82 and County Highway 81 to the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community. A copy of the
resolution is available in the office of the County Administrator and is made a part of this record by reference.
The motion carried unanimously.

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to approve the request for an Interim Use Permit (PL#2017-0050) of Max
Steininger, Inc., applicant, RJS of MN Limited Partnership, property owner, to operate a sand and gravel
mining facility in Section 26 of St. Lawrence Township, zoned Urban Expansion Reserve (UER).

The action was recommended by the Scott county Planning Advisory Commission on August 14, 2017 in
accordance with Chapters 2, 10, 25 and 70 of the Scott County Zoning Ordinance 3 based on the criteria for
approval listed below.
Max Steininger Incorporated is requesting an Interim Use Permit (IUP) to mine sand and gravel resources out
of a 79 acre parcel owned by RJS of Minnesota Limited Partnership. The property is located in Section 26, St.
Lawrence Township and is zoned Urban Expansion Reserve (UER), which allows mining of sand and gravel
resources through an IUP. The subject parcel is separated by County Road (CR) 66 (Old Highway 169
Boulevard) which bisects the property in an east-west direction. There is also a Department of Natural
Resources (DNR) protected stream that runs south to north through the central area of the property.

The mining area south of CR 66 has been a mining pit operated since the 1960s and is currently under an IUP
associated with another mining site located of a mile to the northeast. Knife River Corporation had begun
reclamation activities in both pits; however, Max Steininger Inc. is proposing to expand mining in the West Pit
and assume reclamation responsibilities under their IUP. Under the Steininger IUP, the applicants propose to
expand mining operations by 4 acres in the West Pit and mine 15 acres in the Northwest Pit (north of CR 66).

The attached application narrative and project plans provide a detailed explanation of the expansion to the
West Pit and new operations in the Northwest Pit. In addition to sand and gravel mining, the site will also be
used for crushing, screening, washing, and stockpiling of the resources, as well as for recycling of asphalt and
concrete to be used to produce recycled base materials. These uses are typical of mining operations in Scott
County, and also require a solid waste facility license and performance bonds held as security by the County.

Sunde Engineering has prepared a Resource Management Plan for the site, which evaluates the
environmental characteristics of the site and surrounding area and potential impacts of the mining operation on
items such as storm water and erosion control. An Environmental Assessment Worksheet (EAW) was not
required since the proposed mining area did not meet regulatory minimum thresholds.

County Natural Resources staff and the Minnesota DNR have reviewed the application for environmental and
resource concerns. The site and subsurface water drain from west to east towards the DNR stream. The
mining limits will stay outside of required 30 foot property line/road right-of-way setbacks, and 100 feet from the
DNR protected stream as required by ordinance. Berming will be installed along all property lines and public
roads to provide a visual and noise barrier to mining activities.

Roads & Access:


The West Pit has a newer access off of CR 59 that was permitted in 2010-2011, and the Northwest Pit has a
field access off of CR 66. Scott County Highway will require a commercial access permit for the improved
access to the Northwest Pit. Both accesses will be paved for the first 100 feet of the site to help reduce truck
tires bringing material onto the County Road. The Township and County have strongly encouraged previous
operators and also now informed Max Steininger Inc. that the preferred haul routes would be to use County
Road 59 to US Highway 169 as the main route to the site as much as feasible to avoid downtown Jordan.
The Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) also has reviewed the IUP application and indicated no
comments or concerns with the IUP.

Reclamation:
Mining sites must complete reclamation occur within 1 year to grade and back-fill the site to a state that
provides a topography that conforms to land area surrounding the site and minimize erosion. Both pit areas
will be reclaimed with 5:1 side slopes as required by Ordinance and overall site grade to direct water towards
the DNR stream and wetland area. Materials brought into the pits will also need to be non-contaminated,
compactable materials suitable for agricultural or future development. The applicants have indicated that
reclamation will occur as areas are mined and fill materials are brought to the site. A performance bond has

SCOTT COUNTY, MINNESOTA
REQUEST FOR BOARD ACTION
Request for Interim Use Permit for Max Steininger, Incorporated

Max Steininger Inc., Applicant; RJS of MN Limited Partnership, Property Owner

Criteria for CUP Approval (Chapter 2-6-1):


1. The proposed use does not create an excessive burden on public facilities.

The proposed operation utilizes County Roads 59 and 66 as a haul routes. For previous activities on the
RJS of MN parcels it has been recommended by the Township and County that the primary haul route shall
utilize County Road 59 to US Highway 169 whenever feasible.

2. The proposed use is compatible with uses on adjacent lots.

The West Pit has been an active mining area since the 1960s, and parcels to the west and east along
County Road 66 have been used for sand and gravel mining. Outside of mining areas the surrounding
land use is predominantly agricultural land, with the nearest homes located approximately 400 feet to the
south and southwest. The nearest residence to the north is over 900 feet away.

3. The proposed structures will be designed of materials that are not unsightly in appearance.

No buildings are proposed for this mining operation.

4. The use is consistent with the purpose of the UER Zoning District.

The Urban Expansion District allows mining through Interim Use Permits.

5. The use is not in conflict with the Scott County 2030 Comprehensive Plan.

The Comprehensive Plan encourages extraction of aggregate resources when proper reclamation plans\
are developed and prior to more intensive land use or development.

6. Adequate measures have been taken to provide ingress and egress, access to public roads and on-site
parking.

The West Pit has an access that was reviewed by County Highway and installed in 2011 off of County
Road 59. The Northwest Pit has a field access on County Road 66 just short of mile from the
intersection with County Road 59. This access will need to be upgraded to a commercial access and
require an access permit from County Highway.

7. The proposed buildings will need to meet all Building Code requirements.

No buildings are proposed for this mining operation.


Conditions of Approval:
1. The Interim Use Permit (IUP) for sand and gravel mining shall be operated in compliance with the
application narrative and project plans dated June 7, 2017 (as may be amended to address changes to
the mining operations, Erosion Control and Stormwater Management items, end land use/reclamation
plan) prepared by Sunde Engineering.
2. The IUP may be reviewed yearly at a time and in a manner specified by the St. Lawrence Town Board.
3. Hours of operation for the mine shall be:

Equipment Maintenance is Permitted during daylight hours
No work on Sundays
4. The applicant shall provide an annual statement of compliance with the conditions of the IUP. Said
notification shall include graphic and/or narrative information, prepared by a registered engineer, on the
mining operation, amount of materials mined (volume of materials leaving the pit, how much material is
remaining), progress on reclamation and restoration, and related conditions. Said compliance
information shall be provided 30 days prior to the anticipated opening date of the mine each spring.
Failure to do so may be a basis for revocation of the IUP.
5. Oils, solvents and other hazardous wastes shall be managed in accordance with the Scott County
Hazardous Waste Management Ordinance.
6. The property shall be maintained in a neat and orderly manner. Noxious vegetation shall be controlled
in compliance with County Ordinances.
7. No blasting activities shall be allowed.
8. There shall be no overnight camping of employees of the company on the site.

avoid truck traffic through downtown Jordan.
10. The applicant shall comply with all requirements of the Scott County Highway Department for site
access and obtaining required access permits.
11. Perimeter controls shall be maintained to protect water quality of natural resources both on and off the
property. Berming shall occur according to the approved plans to screen the mine from adjacent
parcels and road right-of-way, and also provide noise and dust control to adjacent parcels.
12. Topsoil shall be stockpiled for use during reclamation and shall not be sold or removed from the site.
13. The applicant shall pave the first 100 feet of the site accesses to minimize dirt and debris being brought
onto County Roads, and water the internal haul roads as needed to minimize dust. Any dirt or debris
on County Roads shall be the responsibility of the IUP holder and shall be promptly removed upon
notification of the Scott County Highway Department.
14. The applicant shall provide Scott County with a Bond or Letter of Credit in the amount of 125% the
estimated reclamation costs (as determined by the project engineer and verified by County Zoning
Administration) to ensure the Erosion Control Plan, Perimeter Controls and Reclamation Plan are
followed and completed according to the approved plans (dated August 15, 2017) and as specified by
the Scott County Zoning Ordinance.
15. A Solid Waste License is required for the concrete and asphalt recycling activities proposed for the
mining operation. This License requires separate review and approval by Scott County Environmental
Services and the Scott County Board of Commissioners, and requires a separate performance bond.
16. The applicant shall obtain all other necessary regulatory permits, including a permit from the MN DNR
for the proposed production well, the MN Pollution Control Agency, and shall also be compliant with
applicable Wetland Conservation Act (WCA) regulations.
17. Materials brought onto the site for reclamation shall be non-contaminated, compactible materials
suitable for future redevelopment use of the property. A materials plan shall be made part of the final
end land use plan for anticipated types of fill materials and areas of deposit.

And noting that:


The St. Lawrence Town Board made a recommendation for approval of the IUP request.

Background/Justification:
This Request for Board Action is to adopt Resolution No. 2017-129; authorizing entering into multiple contracts
for construction at the Workforce Center and a budget amendment for $90,000 to the Income Maintenance
budget.

This construction project is being moved forward for two major reasons.

1. A 2014 Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) audit raised concerns that resulted in
errors related to data privacy and client confidentiality specifically the low temporary walls, unsecured
staff area, and lack of private space to conduct SNAP interviews. Auditors continue to follow up on
these areas, questioning whether they have been remediated. The corrective actions sited by our
SNAP auditor are violations of Federal Tax Information (FTI), which requires that all areas that contain
either hard copy FTI information or computers and electronic media that receive, process, store, or
transmit FTI must be in a secure area with restricted access. (FTI Publication 1075, Section 4 and
Section 9.3.11.6)

2. Currently the staff area is not secured as it can be accessed by anyone who enters the building, at any
time.

This request includes several components (see Attachment No. 1):


Convert the wall between the Workforce Center Resource Room and staff area from a temporary,
unsecure wall to a permanent, secure wall
Convert the door between the lobby and staff area from an office cubicle door which is unsecure door
to a secure door with badge reader access
Convert the door between the Resource Room and staff area from an office cubicle door to a secure
door
Add a total of three badge readers securing office space from the public and other agencies with the
building
Convert three interview cubes to two interview offices and one small conference room
Redesign and relocate Resource Room help desk
Reconfigure cubes in staff area as needed to accommodate permanent wall

This project is currently in the approved 2017-2021 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) as one of the bonding
projects in 2018. The project was estimated to be under $100,000 so the County went out for quotes on the
project. Quotes were received and accepted for:

IDN (Mortise Locks) $ 2,178


Summit Fire Protection $ 3,000
VTI E&T Area $ 6,151
VTI CAP Area $ 1,760
Siemens $ 6,195
ABF $10,000
Outland Construction $44,052
Associated Mechanical $11,800
Total Contracts $85,136

Materials and contingency for $4,864

This is a total project budget amendment of $90,000 and includes a $2,000 contingency.

There are three off levy sources of funding all related to the department who benefits from the wall and
interview room construction.

Scott County has received a bonus for our performance with the SNAP program that totals $15,106.
Eligible SNAP portions of the project will be deducted from the total first.
Capital Projects impacting the Income Maintenance Dept. can be directly billed through their operating
budget where we will receive federal reimbursement at the same rate as our Random Moment Time
study provides for the entire program. That is currently estimated at 47%.
The remaining amount will come from additional revenue from the Income Maintenance budget this
year due to a change in the way we are handling the Random Moment Time Study in that area. This is
one time money and the increased revenue was built into the 2018 budget.
Estimated Funding Sources

SNAP Program $15,000


Federal Reimbursement $41,424
Random Moment in Time Revenue Increase $33,576
Estimated Cost $90,000

This request is a cost efficient and reasonable solution to ensure that both staff and client data are in a secure
location as well as bringing the Income Maintenance program into compliance with both the SNAP program
and Federal Tax Information. Due to increased concerns about staff safety and the SNAP corrective action,
this CIP project amendment is being put forth in 2017. Completion of this project in 2017 will ensure enhanced
security of citizen information and increased safety for Scott County staff.

The request is for authorization to enter into the multiple contracts for construction of a wall and several
interview rooms and the Workforce Center and to amend the budget in Income Maintenance to maximize the
SNAP grant funding for this project.

Fiscal Impact:
None all construction is off levy.
Amend the 2017 Income Maintenance Budget for $90,000. The funds will be coming from additional SNAP
funds, projected excess revenue from the Income Maintenance Department based on their Random Moment
Time Study as well as collecting additional Random Moment Time Study funds based on this project. Income
Maintenance estimates that the construction work is approximately 47% eligible for reimbursement.

The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2017- 123; authorizing final payment for County
Project (CP) 17-32 to Eureka Construction in the amount of $10,500.51.

The project included the reconstruction of County Highway (CH) 17, an existing 2-lane roadway (approximately
1.08 miles) from south of CH 78 to CH 42 into a 4-lane divided highway with bus shoulders and
pedestrian/bicycle facilities. The project also included a reclamation on a portion of Wood Duck Trail
(approximately 0.23 miles) from CH 17 east through the intersection of Hohenstein Court. The County also
reclaimed and paved a segment of the city street with the project because of the need for construction access
to build Hohenstien Court and relocate driveways.
Staff recommends approval of the final contract amount. All work has been satisfactorily performed and the
necessary closeout documentation has been completed by the contractor and reviewed by the County
Engineer.

The final contract amount is $4,176,897.01 which is $53,381.09 (1.02 percent) less than the original bid of
$4,230,278.11. To date $4,166,396.51 has been paid to the contractor leaving a balance of $10,500.51.

This reconstruction project began construction in 2015, as part of the 2015-2024 Transportation Improvement
Program (TIP) 20152024 at $8.47 million. The overall project, which had federal funding from the 2013
Regional Solicitation, also included a separately let project, CP17-32J, the extension of Jennifer Lane which
removed several direct driveway accesses off of CH17. Project CP17-32J was closed out by the County Board
on July 11, 2017 under Resolution No. 2017-096 with a final contract value of $1,116,590.10, for a project

The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No 2017-124; authorizing final payment for County
Project (CP) 06-05FL in Blakeley Township to Landwehr Construction, Inc. in the amount of $1,000.00.

This slope stabilization project was in response to the 2014 flooding in the Blakeley area that washed out
significant portions of the bluff along County Highway (CH) 6. Scott County was awarded Federal and State
funding to construct slope stabilization to reduce the likelihood of additional slope failure that had previously
damaged CH 6 and impacted the adjacent Union Pacific Railroad. This project will also reduce the on-going
maintenance operations necessary from continuous erosion of the slope that impacts the drainage systems
along CH 6.

The project included the installation of multiple French drain systems and 12 directionally bored perforated
drain tile lines into the Minnesota River Bluff in accordance with the geotechnical recommendations provided to
the County last year. The project also included approximately 1,000 linear feet of pavement reclamation
adjacent to the drainage system construction.

Staff recommends approval of the final contract amount. All work has been satisfactorily performed and the
necessary closeout documentation has been completed by the contractor and reviewed by the County
Engineer.

The final contract amount is $1,244,016.40 which is $134,140.26 or 9.73% less than the original bid of
$1,378,156.66. To date $1,243,016.40 has been paid to the contractor leaving a balance of $1,000.00.

Federal and State Aid disaster relief funds have covered this project up to the eligible limits itemized below:

Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) Disaster $ 1,179,200


State Aid Disaster $ 294,800
Total $ 1,474,000

The Countys share will be $ 0.00.

Resolution No. 2016-084 authorized by the County Board on May 17, 2016 amended the 2016 budget to
provide authority to spend the available Federal and State dollars provided for this project through the 2014
federal flood disaster declaration.

The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2017-125; authorizing final payment for County
Project (CP) 60-02FL in Blakeley Township to Chard Tiling and Excavating, Inc., in the amount of $2,282.90.

County Highway (CH) 60 was damaged during the 2014 flood event and had been closed to traffic. In 2015,
the County determined the best approach to re-open the road was to realign and reconstruct the damaged
roadway.
This project involved the reconstruction and realignment of CH 60 from the CH 1/CH 6 intersection and
extending 3,000 feet south up the Minnesota River bluff. The project also includes a reclaim and overlay on an
additional 1.9 miles to Trunk Highway (TH) 169.

County staff worked with the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and Minnesota Homeland
Security Emergency Management (HSEM) to incorporate the realignment and pavement reclaim/overlay
projects into the Improved Project from CH 1 to TH 169.

The final contract amount is $1,978,071.13 which is $29,876.13 or 1.53 percent more than the original bid of
$1,948,195.00. To date $1,975,788.23 has been paid to the contractor leaving a balance of $2,282.90.

The amount in excess of the bid was due to the unsuitable gravel under the existing asphalt necessitating a
change order on the full depth reclaim from the existing 6 of pavement into the 10 of pit run gravel to make
the foundation suitable for the new road. Additionally, 400 of guardrail was added along the west side of CH
60 as a change order.

Staff recommends approval of the final contract amount. All work has been satisfactorily performed and the
necessary closeout documentation has been completed by the contractor and reviewed by the Highway
Department.

This project was included in the adopted Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) 2016-2025. The FEMA
agreement amount provided for up to $2,021,631.37 for construction of the Improved Project.

The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2017-126; certifying final approved appraisal of
value for certain land acquisitions and authorizing acquisition by expedited (Quick Take) eminent domain
proceedings associated with Trunk Highway 169 located in Jackson Township.

This Resolution authorizes eminent domain proceedings, requests the County Attorney to initiate proceedings,
and certifies the final approved appraisal of value and other damages for acquiring interests in real property for
expedited (Quick Take) condemnation.
The County is the lead agency for a project to construct a local public township road to provide local property
access in lieu of direct access via Trunk Highway (TH) 169. The local public township road will allow the
closure of direct access onto TH 169. The project is programmed in the Transportation Improvement Program
(TIP) 2017 2026 to commence construction in 2017.

The project requires partial takings on one (1) parcel improved with a manufactured home community.
Negotiations are continuing but have not been successful to date. We anticipate continuing negotiations with
owners attorney but have little expectation of success based upon owners demands.

The project schedule requires proceeding with authorizing eminent domain in order to begin construction early
in the 2018 construction season. It is important to proceed with this work ahead of the nearby planned
interchange project.

The parcel is referenced by Parcel No. and Exhibit, as follows:

The certified values were provided to the County Board previously by a confidential memorandum in support of
the Board approval of an estimate of just compensation for these parcels by Agenda Item #6.9 at its May 2,
2017 Board meeting. That information is being provided again via a confidential memo. The County Attorney
advises that state law requires that this information remains private protected data at this point in the
acquisition process.

This project is programmed for 2017 construction in the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) 2017
2026 under County Project CP T169-01. The TIP funding programmed for right-of-way is sufficient to cover
the anticipated cash flow in fiscal year 2017.

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to approve estimate of just compensation by a market value appraisal for
new right-of-way for the reconstruction of the intersection of County Highway 42 with Trunk Highway 13 under
project CP 42-17 located in the Cities of Prior Lake and Savage.

The project is an intersection improvement project to reconstruct the intersection of County Highway (CH) 42
with Truck Highway (TH) 13. Currently, the intersection experiences congestion, is signalized with a temporary
system, and has gaps in bike/pedestrian paths. The intersection improvement project will add dual left turn
lanes on CH 42 with its intersection with TH 13, install a permanent traffic signal system, and construct
trails/sidewalks for bike and pedestrian connectivity to existing sidewalks and trails. The purpose of the project
is to improve operation, safety, and mobility of the traveling public for both motorists and pedestrians by
investing in the intersection at these two important principal arterial highways.

The project has right-of-way (ROW) needs on 27 parcels, which consist of partial acquisitions. Previously, the
County purchased by early voluntary acquisitions seven (7) parcels between 2003 and 2010 by mutual
agreement on a voluntary basis between willing sellers and the County, as a willing buyer. Five (5) of the
parcels were purchased for removing accesses off of CH 42 and for the potential development of a frontage
road to make a connection from Commerce Avenue to Rutgers Avenue. Subsequently, the City of Prior Lake
has elected to construct a cul-de-sac for Commerce Avenue. The remaining 21 parcels have additional ROW
needs by partial acquisitions.

The status of agency approval of just compensation for the 21 parcels with ROW needs is summarized as
follows:
This Request for Board Action is for agency approval of estimates of just compensation for five (5)
parcels (Group 3 which is the final group for the project);
Previously, approval of estimates of just compensation by Board action has been provided for
eight (8) parcels (Group 1) under Agenda Item #5.7 at the August 1, 2017 Board meeting and six
(6) parcels (Group 2) under Agenda Item #5.10 at the August 15, 2017 Board meeting.
Two (2) of the parcels are held in public ownership by the City of Savage, which we anticipate will
provide the right of way needed at no cost as a partner in the intersection improvement project.

The County has contracted with Patchin Messner Dodd & Brumm (PMDB), an independent appraisal firm
with qualified appraisers, to complete appraisals to determine the market value for the 19 parcels in
private ownership to provide an estimate of just compensation. PMDB is delivering appraisal reports
with its estimate of just compensation. There are no federal funds on this project, which would require
an independent appraisal review by an independent appraiser under the federal process. Staff is
reviewing the appraisal reports to support the estimate of just compensation. The appraisals are the
basis for this approval to present a written offer of just compensation.

Detail information has been provided to the Board in a separate confidential memorandum per the
requirements of Minnesota State Statutes. The appraisal reports, upon receipt, are available for Board review
upon request to the Highway Department office.

This project is programmed for 2018 construction in the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) 2017
2026. There is adequate funding programmed for right of way in the TIP and the funding in 2017 in the TIP is
sufficient to cover the anticipated cash flow in fiscal year 2017.

Fiscal Impact:

None.

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2017-128; approving the final 2018 budget and
levy of $34,100 for the Scott County Vermillion River Watershed Special Taxing District.

On September 3, 2002, the Scott County Board adopted Resolution No. 2002-074 establishing a special taxing
district for the Vermillion River Watershed funding pursuant to Minn. Stat. 103B.241. The purpose of this
special taxing district is to provide funding for the Vermillion River Watershed Management and Watershed
Management Plan implementation activities.
The Vermillion River Watershed Joint Powers Board met August 24, 2017, held a public hearing, and is
recommending a levy of $34,100 for the Scott County portion of the Watershed. The levy would be effective
for 2018. The Dakota County portion of the annual levy is $887,900. A copy of the budget approved by the
Vermillion Joint Powers Organization Board on August 24, 2017 is attached. The Scott County portion of the
levy has increased $600 or 2% from 2017. This results in a change in net payable for the average market
value residence from $12.23 (2017) to $12.83 (2018) a $0.61 increase. All properties in the City of Elko New
Market and New Market Township increased in median value by approximately 5.5%.

The levy amounts from Scott and Dakota County portions of the Watershed combined with income from other
sources and a cash reserve (fund balance) of $29,450 gives a total budget for the Vermillion River Watershed
Joint Powers Organization for 2018 of $2,196,500.

Melissa Bokman, Natural Resources Sr. Planner is the contact for this action at 952-496-8887 or

Fiscal Impact:
This action will set the final levy and budget for 2018.

The purpose of this item is to adopt Resolution No. 2017-130; authorizing entering into Cooperative Agreement
No. 1028864 with the State of Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) for right-of-way on the Trunk
Highways (TH) 169/41 and County Highways (CH) 78/14 Freight Mobility Project in Jackson and Louisville
Townships

The project is constructing an interchange at the current signalized intersection of TH 169 and TH 41. The
project also includes an overpass at CH 14 and frontage roads. The County is the lead agency on the
roadway design and right-of-way acquisition for the project. MnDOT will be the eventual recipient of trunk
highway easements or parcels for trunk highway purposes. The Agreement is necessary to memorialize the
understanding of the process and expectations by both parties as the right-of-way acquisition moves forward
on the project.

The County has secured numerous funding sources to leverage both construction and right-of-way costs. The
County has approximately $18.2 million in Federal Surface Transportation Program (STP) and $17.7 million in
Federal Transportation Investment Generating Economic Recovery (TIGER) for funding construction projects.
The County has also secured $10 million in State Transportation and Economic Development (TED) funds for
the project. The State funds will be used for right-of-way acquisition on the project and will require a separate
agreement to be brought forth when the project is ready to bid in 2018.

The project is anticipated to begin construction in late 2018. Funding for the local portion of this project will
come from the County Transportation Sales Tax. Funding for the right-of-way is programmed in 2017, 2018
and 2019 in the adopted 2017-2016 Transportation Improvement Program.

The purpose of this agenda item is to approve the renewal of the Service Agreement with the Shakopee
School District for the provision of school-linked mental health services by the Scott County Mental Health
Center (MHC) effective July 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018.

The Shakopee School District is requesting that the Scott County Mental Health Center continue to provide
mental health services in its schools. Scott County has been a recipient of Minnesota Department of Human
Services (DHS) grant funds to provide school-linked mental health services to children and adolescents in
Scott County schools since August 2008. During this time, the Scott County Mental Health Center has
established successful partnerships with the schools including the Shakopee School District. In 2013, the
Shakopee School District requested school-linked mental health services in addition to those provided through
the DHS school-linked mental health grant. On September 17, 2013 the Board approved the Service
Agreement with the Shakopee School District including the addition of four full-time equivalent staff to provide
these services.

School-linked mental health services are provided on-site in the schools. The therapists provide diagnostic
assessments, psychological evaluations, individual and group therapy, crisis assessments and intervention,
and connection to needed resources for students with significant mental health issues and their families.
Therapists also provide consultation and training to staff and parents regarding mental health issues and
resources. Mental health practitioners provide skills training and skills groups on an as needed basis to
students. Services are offered to students who would not otherwise have access to mental health resources.
Insurance is billed when students have coverage. Outcome measures gathered from parents, students,
therapists, and teachers indicate very positive results for students receiving services from the program
(improved functioning and symptom reduction).

The Shakopee School District would like to continue these expanded school linked mental health services in its
schools. This Service Agreement will allow for the continuation of school-linked mental health services in the
Shakopee School District. The Shakopee School District has agreed to fund all County staff providing mental
health services in their schools where DHS grant funding and insurance reimbursement is not available.

Fiscal Impact:

The Service Agreement with the Shakopee School District for the Mental Health Center to provide school-
linked mental health services is budget neutral. Insurance will be billed for all eligible services. The Shakopee
School District fully funds the salary, benefits, mileage, and equipment costs of staff dedicated to providing
mental health services in its schools where DHS grant funding or insurance reimbursement is not available.
Approval of this Service Agreement does not negatively impact the Health and Human Services budget.

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to approve a special Limited Use Agreement with the United States
Marshals Service (USMS) for detention bed space for federal detainees and prisoners.

The purpose of this Agreement is to use and generate revenue for available bed space in the Jail. The USMS
has need for temporary housing which we can currently accommodate without the need for additional staff or
scheduled shifts. The USMS will pay the Jail $90 per inmate per day to cover all expenses except for off-site
specialized medical services. For any USMS-contracted inmate needing such care, the USMS will reimburse
the Jail for those expenses in full, including a $38 per hour guard rate during those transports and service.
This term of this Agreement is June 16, 2017 through June 15, 2018.

Fiscal Impact:
This Agreement was not anticipated, nor budgeted for in the Jails 2017 budget. A conservative budget of
revenue has been included in the 2018 Jail budget proposal, as the volume is unpredictable.
