Health Inc. to provide mobile mental health crisis response. Minnesota State Statute requires that a County
Board must provide or contract for crisis services 24 hours a day, 7 days a week to meet the needs of children
and adults in the County experiencing a crisis.

For approximately 20 years Scott County has collaborated with Carver County for mobile mental health
crisis response with Carver County providing the staffing and response. However, as both Counties continue to
grow, it was determined that Scott County needed a new mobile crisis response solution. A Request for
Proposal was issued and based upon the functionality included in the proposals submitted, reference checks
completed, and cost, Canvas Health, Inc. provided the best operation that would meet the needs and direction
of the County. Canvas, Inc. will co-locate their team at the Scott County Law Enforcement Center and
dedicate this team solely to Scott County residents.

Ms. Dahl stated the Agreement with Canvas Health, Inc. would be effective April 2, 2018 through
December 31, 2018. Carver County would continue to provide the mobile crisis response for Scott County
through April 1, 2018.

Agreement with Canvas Health, Inc. and an Attachment to provide adult and children’s mobile mental health
crisis response. The motion carried unanimously.

Networks addresses the strategies to increase access to broadband for Scott County businesses and
residences through increased access to transports and to facilitate increased cooperation and coordination
among local and regional organizations and private companies through open access.

County Administrator Gary Shelton confirmed Scott County does not provide direct services to residences
or businesses.
Commissioner Beer moved, seconded by Commissioner Wolf to adopt Resolution No. 2017-184;
Authorizing Entering Into an Agreement With Access Network for Use and Management of Scott County Fiber

to close the public hearing at 10:57 a.m. The motion carried unanimously.

heard numerous levy and budget presentations and reviewed information in previous meetings and workshops
including the proposed budget meeting held on December 5, 2017. Staff is recommending a 2018 levy of
$65,693,000 which would be an increase of 3.19% over the 2017 levy.

Deputy Clerk :
Date:

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to authorize the Grant Application to the Minnesota Department of Human
Services (DHS) for the provision of school-linked mental health services by the Scott County Mental Health
Center (MHC) and authorize the addition of three full-time equivalent (FTE) grant funded positions.

For the past ten years, the MHC has been providing school-linked mental health services to children and
adolescents in Scott County schools with the support of this DHS grant funding. 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. The mental health
practitioner provides 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).

One of the key funding sources for this programming is a grant allocation given by DHS. In 2013, the Scott
County Mental Health Center was awarded a grant for $1,746,611 for a five-year period from July 1, 2013
through June 30, 2018, which is approximately $349,322 annually. In 2017, the Minnesota Legislature
authorized funding for the continuation and expansion of school-linked mental health services across the State.
In December, DHS issued a Request for Proposals to fund these services for a three-year period beginning on
July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2020. The MHC is requesting $1,451,622 or approximately $483,874 annually to
continue to provide and expand school-linked mental health services in Scott County schools over the next
three year grant cycle.

This grant application to DHS will allow for the continued funding of services developed and implemented with
the current grant cycle. The funding would provide for the continuation of 9.1 staff to provide mental health
services in the Belle Plaine, Jordan, New Prague, Shakopee, Prior Lake/Savage, and Southwest Metro
Intermediate school districts. All of the districts have demonstrated a high need for services and have waiting
lists. Due to this, several districts have indicated a need and desire to increase mental health services in the
schools. This grant proposal would allow for an increase of 2.5 additional mental health professionals and a .5
mental health practitioner to serve the schools. The addition of these positions would bring the total staffing
complement for school-linked mental health to 12.1 FTE. Funding for these positions comes from a
combination of insurance billing, contracts with local school districts, and this DHS grant allocation. It is
estimated that this grant funding pays for approximately 28% of each FTE.

Fiscal Impact:
No fiscal impact. The application to DHS for the MHC to provide school-linked mental health services is budget
neutral. The grant and insurance reimbursement would fully fund the salary, benefits, mileage, and equipment
costs of the staff dedicated to providing mental health services in the schools. A combination of grant funding,
district funding, and third party billing would make the added positions revenue neutral to the County.
Participation in this program and approval of this grant application does not negatively impact the Health and
Human Services budget. If the request for additional staff is not funded by DHS, the additional three FTEs will
not be hired.

Deputy Clerk :
Date:

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to approve the 2018 Technical Assistance, Cost Share, and Incentives
(TACS) Program Policy Manual through the Scott Soil and Water Conservation District (SWCD).

The Policy Manual which traditionally has been referred to as a Docket is updated annually and includes
details regarding payments and program specifics for cost share projects and incentives. For 2018 there is
roughly $400,000 for the Scott Watershed Management Organization (WMO) program ( i.e., $260,000 in the
approved 2018 Scott WMO budget, and $140,000 balance at the Scott SWCD from previous year funds
already forwarded by the Scott WMO). The SWCD also has dedicated funds for Best Management Practice
Implementation that will be based on the Policy Manual.
One change this year is that the 2018 TACS Program Policy Manual will serve all of Scott County, across
jurisdictional boundaries for the various water management entities within the County. In the past, this was not
the case as each water management entity within Scott County had its own specific Docket. Procedures and
policies that differ between the water management entities will be addressed with addendums. The rest of the
proposed changes are minor and involve technical or clarification changes. These changes were developed
through various meetings with the SWCD and a workshop with a joint subcommittee comprised of members of
the Scott SWCD’s Board of Supervisors, Watershed Planning Commission members, Prior Lake – Spring Lake
Watershed District staff and managers, and staff from the Scott SWCD and Scott County. The draft Policy
Manual was reviewed and recommended for approval by the Watershed Planning Commission at their
December meeting.

Some of the highlighted changes in the 2018 Policy Manual include:

1.) Cover crop seeding rates and dates may vary from Natural Resources Conservation Service (NRCS)
practice standards subject to approval from a District Technical Representative. This allows for some
flexibility as the standards for cover crops are still being developed.
2.) Addition of Conservation Drainage practices that include, but are not limited to, denitrifying bioreactors,
water quality surface inlet protectors, and vegetative subsurface drain outlets at a 75% cost-share rate.
3.) For native grass plantings, the use of the 327 Conservation Cover standards may be used in lieu of the
previously used 643 and 645 practice standards. This allows for the ability to lower the required
minimum number of native grass and forbs species and also the addition of cost-sharable tree plantings
at a 50% cost-share rate. If a grant requires it or the landowners desires more species, the technical
representative can increase the number of species in the mix.
4.) Advance Construction Cover addition to encourage off peak construction of practices during summer
months and offset the loss of crops. The payment is $200/acre for a maximum amount of $1,000 (5
acres) and construction must occur between July 1st and September 10th, which is during a seeding
window.

The draft 2018 Policy Manual is attached.

Fiscal Impact:
The budget for the Technical Assistance and Cost Share Program is set separately from the Policy Manual.
However, the reason for making changes in the Policy Manual is to incorporate what has been learned from
the previous years of implementing the Program and improve its efficiency.

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to request adoption of Resolution No. 2018-003; authorizing vacation of
County Highway (CH) 81 right-of-way west of Stemmer Ridge Road in Prior Lake.

The right-of-way vacation of CH 81 west of Stemmer Ridge Road is consistent with the long range
transportation planning that has been completed. On May 19, 2015 the Scott County Board of Commissioners
adopted Resolution No. 2015-089 (Attachment #1) entering into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU)
(Attachment #2) with the Shakopee Mdewakanton Sioux Community (SMSC) regarding the construction of CH
81 from CH 82 to Stemmer Ridge Road in Prior Lake. The construction of that roadway was completed this
fall. Below is a summary of the planning that went into this roadway connection.
The County worked with the SMSC and the City of Prior Lake on a long standing issue of providing
connectivity between CH 82 and CH 12. CH 81 most recently only connected CH 82 to the Spring Lake Park
parking lot and to the future City of Prior Lake park land. The previous road alignment had been a County road
and was the only north-south supporting roadway between CH 12 and CH 82. As part of the long term park
planning process, the County approved severing CH 81 for the park as the City was going to build a north-
south collector between CH 12 and CH 82, incrementally as development occurred.

The CH 17 Corridor Study was then completed and adopted by the County, Townships and Cities along the
CH 17/TH 13 corridor. This Study also supported construction of a north-south collector between CH 12 and
CH 82. As the County moves access off of CH 17 as it is a principle arterial on our system, it is imperative to
have a good north-south supporting system.

CH 81 provided the access to Spring Lake Park and will need to provide access to the City’s park as the
County will not permit direct access off of CH 82. The new alignment of CH 81 currently provides this
connectivity by utilizing the roundabout just south of CH 82.

The final benefit of the project was CH 81’s new access was realigned on CH 82 to align with Mystic Lake
Blvd. improving access alignment on CH 82.

Those were the roles identified for the construction of this roadway:
 Direct land access for homes to the SMSC properties
 Connectivity between CH 12 and CH 82 via a connected CH 81 and Stemmer Ridge Road
 Access to the County and City park land off of newly constructed roadway

The County Board took action to turnback the new alignment of CH 81 to the City of Prior Lake in November
and the City of Prior Lake will take action at their meeting in January.

With the turnback of the new CH 81 alignment to Prior Lake in process the final part of the MOU (Item F) is to
vacate the section of old CH 81 west of Stemmer Ridge Road. Vacation of the County’s interest in a County
highway, by resolution, is allowed pursuant to Minn. Stat. 163.11 subd 4. The draft conveyance instrument is
Attachment #3 which is shown on the location map and includes the legal description of the right of way being
vacated.

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2018-004; rescinding Resolution No. 2017-158 and
revoking County State Aid Highway (CSAH) status on CSAH 37 from Trunk Highway (TH) 19 to CSAH 15 in
the City of New Prague.

This Resolution will rescind and replace the previous Board Resolution No. 2017-158 passed on November 21,
2017, revoking the entire corridor from TH 19 to TH 21. Upon further review by the Minnesota Department of
Transportation (MnDOT) of this revocation request, it was determined that a County State Aid project on CSAH
37 performed in 1997 would require payback of State Aid funds by the County. To avoid the financial penalty,
the revocation request has been amended to only include the segment of CSAH 37 from TH 19 to CSAH 15 in
order to meet the immediate State Aid mileage need. This State Aid mileage is necessary to provide the
additional CSAH mileage needed to construct the CSAH 14 overpass in the TH 169, TH 41, and County
Highway (CH) 78 interchange project in 2018.

The City and County are working on the terms of a Roadway Jurisdictional Transfer (turnback) Agreement, and
the City will lead a construction project in 2019 for pavement and storm sewer repairs on CSAH 37. It has
been mutually agreed that the revocation of the County State Aid Highway (CSAH) designation can occur in
advance of the turnback. The proposed CSAH 37 revocation and eventual turnback to the City of New Prague
is consistent with the Scott County Transportation Plan. The City will be able to add this segment of roadway to
its Municipal State Aid Highway system prior to the actual turnback.

The County is limited to the number of miles that it can have on the County State Aid Highway system. In order to
add new roadway miles to the system, the County can either undesignate a portion of its existing system to free up
mileage, or it can make a request to the State Screening Board to request additional mileage. The latter process
requires a complete system analysis and is only considered by the Screening Board twice a year. The County
intends to make a system request in 2019, after the completion of the Comprehensive Plan update. The TH
169/TH 41/CH 78 interchange project will be let in spring of 2018. In order to have the new alignment of CH 14
on the CSAH system, it is necessary to make this request for a change prior to final plan approval for the project,
which is expected in March 2018. Once the County and City have taken action, MnDOT will review and issue a
Commissioner’s Order to approve the change.

This segment of CSAH 37 is 0.72 miles. The City of New Prague ultimately intends to add this roadway to the
Municipal State Aid Street (MSAS) as turnback mileage after improvements are complete and the roadway is
turned back to the City in 2018. The City is allowed by State Aid rules to designate County Roads as turnback
mileage on their municipal system. In the meantime, the CSAH designation would be revoked and the roadway
would be designated a County Road. The City had a resolution regarding this CSAH revocation action by the
County on the agenda for December 18, 2017 City Council Meeting.

The County will utilize 1.2 miles of the 1.6 CSAH miles from CSAH 37 by designating the new alignment of CH 14
and a segment of CH 69 between CSAH 78 and planned CSAH 16 alignment as County State Aid Highway in
subsequent actions on the November 21, 2017 agenda. The remaining 0.4 miles will be added to the County’s
CSAH mileage bank.

The turnback project for CH 37 is programmed for 2018 in the Transportation Improvement Program,

Background/Justification:
The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2018-005, authorizing entering into a Contract with
Wold Architects and Engineers for professional design services associated with the Government Center
Campus Project.

On February 10, 2016, as a result of historical trends and present and future needs, a Request for Proposal
(RFP) was issued for space needs and projected building program analysis. The purpose of the study was to
create a tool for the Scott County Board of Commissioners to utilize when making strategic long-term decisions
regarding the use of and investment in County facilities. The space study guiding principles were:
 Centralize and enhance quality customer service
 Retain/attract employees through an inviting, flexible, and unifying work atmosphere
 Develop consistent safety/security standards
 Define staff/public separation, preserve welcoming spaces
 Create adaptable/flexible spaces
 Utilize technology for work space mobility and efficiency, while maintaining cost and personal
interactions
 Provide services that extend to all areas of the County

Two proposals were received and reviewed by both a focus group and core group representing the County.
The proposers were:
 Wold Architects and Engineers
 BKV Group

Wold was selected to provide, in consultation with appropriate Scott County staff, a staffing study and a
building use needs study for short and long-term use, a recommendation as to how best to obtain efficiencies,
and a building program as to how and where to meet the demands for current and future operations. This was
accomplished in three phases:
Phase I - Workforce planning forecasts and analysis
Phase II - Alternative options analysis (up to three (3) options per campus)
Phase III - Preliminary design, planning, budgeting, and cost/benefit analysis

Information necessary to advance this project was gathered through an online survey, which was highly
successful with approximately two thirds of all employees responding, a workshop, an open house, and
ongoing meetings/discussions. The study effort was guided and informed by several groups representing
Scott County.

The study projected needs through 2040, and was focused on developing facility solutions that support the
County’s mission. A final report, which included recommendations, was submitted in September of 2017.

Scott County occupies 574,144 gross square feet owned space. Most departments are headquartered in four
locations.
1) Government Center campus in downtown Shakopee;
2) Central Shop campus in Jordan;
3) Workforce Development Center in Shakopee; and
4) Marschall Road Transit Station (MRTS) in Shakopee.

These buildings accommodate a growing number of government employees and visitors. From 1990 to 2015,
the number of staff has grown from 450 to about 715 (full time equivalent) employees. On average, about
5,500 people visit the main customer service counter at the Government Center on a monthly basis.

Employees 450 715 919
(employees-450) (employees-715) (employees-919)
The charts show that as the County continues to grow, it requires new employees in a service industry, but the
County has also become more efficient, adding only 265 employees in the past 25 years. This information was
used in projections moving forward.

It is proposed to move into the design phase of the project with the same consultant the County selected for
the space study in order to meet the 2019 construction season for this project. Wold is familiar with and has
the background and details of the project. Their master planning and pre-design work that they have already
performed adds value in the forthcoming design process. Using the same consultant for the design will result
in efficiency, cost savings, and quicker mobilization to meet this time schedule for delivery because of their
familiarity with the proposed improvements.

Wold was asked to develop a proposal for the overall building design and construction phases. They have
provided a proposal in the amount of $3,226,400 for design services. Proposed fixed fees of 6% for new
construction based on the approved construction cost and 7.5% for remodeling or minor additions. Research
on the fixed fees percentages showed that they are at or below what other counties have done. Breakdown is
as follows:

New Facility on Campus and Site Work $ 2,094,000


Justice Center Renovation $ 367,500
Government Center Renovations $ 657,500
Parking Improvements $ 47,000
Public Works Storage Facility $ 100,000
Subtotal $ 3,266,000

Credit for master planning ($ 30,000)


Credit for pre-design ($ 9,600)
Total $ 3,226,400

Design work to include:

 Approximately 110,000 sq. ft. new building


 Two new courtrooms and a jury assembly room in the Justice Center campus
 Government Center campus renovations of the 1st and 3rd floors
 Parking space to accommodate the campus
 15,000 sq. ft. warm storage at the Central Shop campus

The construction project will be competitively bid, with construction anticipated to start in summer of 2019.

Staff requests approval to enter into a Contract for design services with Wold Architects and Engineers for an
amount not to exceed $3,226,400.

Fiscal Impact:

The consultant services for this project have been included in the Capital Improvement Program for 2018 in the
amount of $3,226,400. The Road and Bridge Fund is advancing the $3,226,400 and will be paid back with
bond proceeds starting in 2019.
