Resolution Approving Use of City Local Affordable Housing Aid Funds
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve a Resolution Approving
the Dakota County Community Development Agency (CDA) to Administer City Local
Affordable Housing Aid (LAHA) Funds
Overview
The 2023 Legislature passed a housing bill with $1 billion in new funding for various affordable
housing programs. The Legislature appropriated state funds for the programs and established a
metro wide sales tax for housing needs, including a portion of this tax as a local housing aid for
metropolitan cities.
The new law establishes a 0.25% metropolitan regional sales tax, with a portion of the proceeds
allocated to metropolitan cities over 10,000 in population. Lakeville will receive a distribution
of aid under this legislation of $229,464.59 in 2024 (certified amount). Cities must spend this aid
by December 31st in the fourth year following the year after the aid was received. Funds must
be committed within three years.
Dakota County cities have been working with the Dakota County CDA to identify methods to
deploy LAHA funds to maximize affordable housing production and preservation and to
minimize administrative costs. The CDA has identified two programs that the CDA could
efficiently administer on cities’ behalf:
• Expanded single-family home improvement loan program which would increase the
number of homes improved from 60-70 per year to 115-120 per year countywide.
Average loan is $32,000.
• Radon mitigation grant program which would provide funds for radon testing and
mitigation in at least 40 homes per year countywide. Average grant is estimated to be
$2,000.
•
The CDA serves an average of six (6) Lakeville homeowners a year with the Home
Improvement Loan Program, spending an average of $190,000 per year. If the City’s LAHA
funds were used for the two CDA programs, the CDA could serve an additional six households
in Lakeville.
The CDA is requesting adoption of a resolution that determines the city’s commitment to
participate in the two programs and the amount of funding should be distributed between the two
Page 8 of 203
programs. This resolution is for 2024 funding only. The Dakota County CDA would like a three-
year commitment through a JPA, but each year the city will have the opportunity, through
adoption of a resolution, to determine level of funding for each program. The request for the
three-year commitment is so that there is a reliable, baseline funding source for the programs,
but this will be negotiated as part of the JPA All Lakeville funding will be distributed to
Lakeville residents.

ALF Contract Amendment with Allina Health Emergency Medical Services
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve a contract amendment
with Allina Health Emergency Medical Services related to staffing requirements on ALF
ambulances.
Overview
The cities of Apple Valley, Lakeville, and Farmington jointly operate ALF Ambulance in our
three respective cities. Through a contract, Alina Health Medical Services (AHEMS) provides
ambulance services in our three cities. The current contract with AHEMS stipulates that each
ambulance be staffed with at least two certified paramedics. Due to staffing challenges,
AHEMS approached the ALF Board earlier this year and asked to deploy a paramedic/EMT
model for a six-month trial. This staffing model is consistent with the rest of AHEMS service
areas. After the six-month trial, there were no significant changes in patient outcomes or
response times.
The ALF Executive Managment Committee (EMC), which consists of city administrators, fire
chiefs, and police chiefs, recommended to the ALF Board of Directors that this model be
codified into a contract amendment moving forward. The ALF Board of Directors approved the
attached amendment, and is asking that each city council ratify it as well.

Police Station Water Heater Replacement
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve a contract with Northern
Mechanical Contractors to replace both domestic hot water heaters at the police station.
Overview
The police station has two domestic hot water heaters serving its restrooms, locker rooms, and
kitchens. Recently, one of the water heaters failed and needs to be replaced. Since both units are
original to the building, staff recommends replacing both heaters to reduce mobilization and
labor costs, improve efficiency, and prevent future service disruptions. The proposed
replacements are high-efficiency models of similar capacity.
While this project is not currently budgeted, staff has identified a solution within the 2024
building fund and department general fund to minimally impact the overall budget. Resolution
24-116 will authorize staff to make appropriate transfers between the general fund and the
building fund.

Lease Agreement for Storage of Public Works Seasonal Equipment
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Approve storage lease agreement for public
works equipment
Overview
The new FiRST Center Public Training Facility is anticipated to start construction early 2025 at
the old public works facility. The Streets and Parks Divisions store seasonal equipment at the
old public works facility year-round. Summer vehicles and equipment such as mowers and
street sweepers are stored at the facility in the winter months and winter equipment such as plow
vehicles and plow equipment attachments are stored at the facility in the summer. Temporary
vehicle and equipment storage is needed until a permanent storage space is determined.
Leasing a portion of a local building was determined to be the best option in the short term. The
term of the lease agreement is for 1-year with an option for an additional year.

Amendment to Supplemental Agreement for Professional Services with Alliant
for 185th Street Improvements
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve Alliant amendment to
supplemental agreement for professional services for 185th Street Improvements from Kenwood
Trail to Ipava Avenue, City Project 25-04.
Overview
The City and Dakota County are partnering to improve 185th Street (CSAH 60) from Kenwood
Trail (CSAH 50) to Ipava Avenue to improve intersection operations, make safety
improvements, and provide for increasing traffic levels. City Project 25-04 is programmed for
construction in 2025 in the City and County 5-year Capital Improvement Plans. Final
engineering is substantially complete and the City and County are preparing to advertise the
construction contract for bids in January 2025 and award a construction contract in February
2025. The City Council approved supplemental agreements for preliminary engineering on
January 18, 2022, and final engineering on January 3, 2023.
Alliant’s proposal identifies the scope of services and estimated cost to provide construction
services including field staking, materials testing and construction inspection and observation.
The proposal also includes costs for added scope or additional services requested during final
engineering. The proposal is subject to the Master Agreement for Professional Engineering
Services between the City and Alliant approved by the City Council on September 20, 2021.
The City and County will share project responsibilities, consistent with the adopted County 2040
Transportation Plan Cost Share policies and as established in the project’s Joint Powers
Agreement. The City is the lead agency; therefore, the total cost is reflected in this memo. The
City’s estimated net cost is $287,000.

RE: 185th Street (CSAH 60) Improvements
Scope and Fee Proposal for Supplemental Agreement No. 1
Dear Mr. Johnson:
Alliant Engineering has appreciated the opportunity to work with you, other city staff, and Dakota County on
the 185th Street (CSAH 60) Improvements Project. As we move from design and towards construction in
2025, we offer this request for a Supplemental Agreement to our final design contract based on two factors:
· Added scope or additional services requested during the design phase.
· City-requested assistance with construction staking, materials testing, and construction observation
services during 2025 construction.
The sections below describe the extra effort for tasks from our original final design scope or new tasks to be
added for the additional requested services. A detailed spreadsheet documenting the hours and fee
associated with each task is also included with this letter as Exhibit A. If approved, Alliant will invoice the
City of Lakeville on an hourly basis for this work under the tasks previously defined as part of our approved
base contract and the new tasks described in this letter.
ADDED SCOPE OR ADDITIONAL SERVICES DURING DESIGN
Task 3 – Right of Way
The additional effort under this task largely resulted from the undocumented prescriptive right-of-
way along the corridor. Resolving this issue required multiple reviews of title work, several
iterations of parcel sketches, field visits to review site conditions, and additional coordination with
the right-of-way acquisition consultant. A summary memo with the recommended prescriptive
right-of-way for each affected parcel was prepared.
Note: No extra fees are being requested for additional appraisals, site visits, or staking for the
multiple iterations needed on some parcels based on city attorney review and subsequent
revisions to appraisals.
Task 3 Additional Fee: $22,120.00
Page 68 of 203
Task 7 – Utility Coordination & Identification
As part of the final design process, Alliant identified utility conflicts and held utility coordination
meetings as defined in our scope. Several private utility owners are preparing relocation plans for
review and coordination ahead of construction next spring. Alliant has agreed to receive, review,
and distribute these plans to City and County construction representatives. We will also facilitate
any additional coordination meetings needed ahead of construction to promote prompt and
timely relocation of private utilities.
Task 7 Additional Fee: $6,360.00
Task 13 – Grant Applications (NEW TASK)
At the request of the City, we prepared and submitted grant applications to the 2024 Regional
Solicitation program and the MnDOT Safe Routes to School program. The project was awarded
funding from both applications. The funding additions required minor editing to plan sheets to
highlight funding sources and eligible pay items.
Task 13 Additional Fee: $22,060.00

Re: Proposal for Construction Materials Testing Services
City of Lakeville – 185th Street Improvements
S.A.P. 188-020-033 / S.A.P. 019-660-010
185th Street from Kenwood Trail to Ipava Avenue
Lakeville, Minnesota
Dear Mr. Nelson:
Braun Intertec Corporation is pleased to submit this proposal to provide construction materials testing
services for the 185th Street Improvements project in Lakeville, Minnesota.
We have completed the geotechnical evaluation and modified phase one environmental site assessment,
so we have a unique understanding of the site and construction challenges. We can aid the construction
team by applying this experience and transferring our knowledge developed during the design phase
which will provide professional continuity to the construction. Our work on the project to date gives us
familiarity with the project team and design development which allows us to understand some of the
considerations used when developing the project’s design.
Since our inception in 1957, we have grown into one of the largest employee-owned engineering firms in
the nation. With more than 1,000 employee owners, retaining our firm gives you access to a diverse
range of services and professionals you can consult with if the unforeseen occurs. The size of our
company also allows us to respond quickly when schedule constraints occur.
Our Understanding of Project
We understand this project will include widening 185th Street between Kenwood Trail to Ipava Avenue
from a two-lane highway to a four-lane roadway. The construction will include pavement subgrade
preparation, aggregate base placement, new concrete curb and gutter, sidewalk, median, and driveways
along with a new bituminous pavement and trail. Improvements to the storm sewer, as well as minor
improvements to the sanitary and water main utilities will also be part of this project.
This is a City of Lakeville project with state-aid funding. Projects that are constructed with state-aid
funding are required to perform Quality Control and Quality Assurance (QC/QA) testing in accordance
with the Minnesota Department of Transportation’s (MnDOT’s) 2020 Standard Specifications for
Construction and MnDOT’s Schedule of Materials Control. We assume this project is using MnDOT’s 2024
State Aid for Local Transportation (SALT) Schedule of Materials Control. Personnel with MnDOT

certifications must complete the monitoring and testing. Braun Intertec will perform the QA field testing
on the project as listed in our scope of services and as shown on our attached cost estimate table. The
contractor will be responsible for performing the required QC testing and submitting the documentation
upon completion of the project. An audit of the project could be conducted upon completion. The audit
may include reviewing tests and paperwork provided by your QC/QA representative.

results are delivered in a timely manner.
Scope of Services
Testing services will be performed on an on-call, as-needed basis as requested and scheduled by you or
your on-site project personnel. Based on our understanding of the project, we propose the following
services.
Soil Related Services
Perform nuclear gauge density tests on common embankment, select granular borrow and
utility backfill materials.
Perform Dynamic Cone Penetrometer (DCP) tests on aggregate base material.
Perform moisture content tests at time of compaction on common embankment, select
granular borrow, utility backfill and aggregate base materials.
Perform gradation tests on select granular borrow and aggregate base materials.
Perform laboratory standard Proctor tests on backfill and fill materials.
Observe and evaluate the soils exposed in the bottoms of excavations to determine if the
soils are similar to those encountered with the geotechnical evaluation and suitable for
support of fill or pavements. Our engineer can provide consultation for conditions that
appear to differ from the geotechnical evaluation.
Prepare the preliminary and final grading and base report along with assembling the random
sampling locations report for the aggregate base according to MnDOT Specifications.
Concrete Field Testing Related Services
Sample and test the plastic concrete for slump, air content, temperature prior to placement.
We assume that we will be able to appropriately dispose of excess concrete (and associated
wash water) on site at no additional cost to us.
Prepare 4-inch by 8-inch cylinders for compressive strength testing. A set of three cylinders
will be tested at 28 days for each set cast. If field cure cylinders are requested, each
additional cylinder will be charged at the unit price listed in our cost estimate.

Test results will be issued weekly for the project as the various tasks are performed. If, at any time, there
are failing tests which do not appear to be in accordance with the plans and specifications or MnDOT’s
Schedule of Materials Control, we will notify the engineer’s representative and any others that we are
directed to notify.
Before the final project closeout, we will issue a final report. The report will include the following:
Braun Intertec technician roster for technicians that conducted testing on the project.
Completed MnDOT Materials Certification Exceptions Summary for items tested by
Braun Intertec.
Completed Preliminary and Final Grading and Base Report.
Moisture, Density, DCP, Proctor and Gradation tests.
Concrete compressive strength results.
Completed test reports for samples sent to the MnDOT Materials Lab.
Bituminous mix designs.
Bituminous verification test results.

Basis of Scope of Work
The costs associated with the proposed scope of services were estimated using the following
assumptions. If the construction schedule is modified or the contractor completes the various phases of
the project at different frequencies or durations than shown in this proposal, we may need to adjust the
overall cost accordingly. The scope of work and number of trips required to perform these services are as
shown in the attached table. Notable assumptions in developing our estimate include:
We assume it will take fifty-two trips to complete the nuclear density gauge testing on this
project.
We assume compaction testing on aggregate base will be performed using the Dynamic Cone
Penetration (DCP) method; a minimum of five tests will be conducted each trip with eleven
trips assumed.
We assume forty-four sets of concrete tests will be required to complete the project.
We assume the rebar observations before concrete placements will be completed by the
project representative’s construction oversight manager.
We assume the ready-mix concrete for this project will come out of one ready mix plant.
We assume bituminous paving will be completed in eighteen days for this project.
We assume MnDOT Metro Inspections will perform concrete batch plant monitoring and
testing for this project.
We assume MnDOT Metro Inspections will perform bituminous plant monitoring and testing
for this project.
We assume MnDOT will calibrate and certify the ready mix concrete plant.
We assume Alliant Engineering Incorporated Personnel will observe the test rolling on this
project.
We assume that sub-grade testing of new trail will mirror note one of the plans for the
roadway and will be quality compaction.

Proposal QTB204173
October 17, 2024
Page 6
We assume the project engineer of record will review and approve the contractor’s quality
control submittals and test results.
You, or others you may designate, will provide us with current and approved plans and
specifications for the project. Modification to these plans must also be sent to us so we can
review their incorporation into the work.
We will require a minimum of 24 hours’ notice for scheduling inspections for a specific time.
Shorter than 24 hours’ notice may impact our ability to perform the requested services, and
the associated impacts will be the responsibility of others.
If the work is completed at different rates than described above, this proposal should be revised. We ask
that once final plans and specifications are completed, we can review and revise this proposal and cost
estimate as needed based on the final construction documents.
Cost and Invoicing
We will furnish the services described herein for an estimated fee of $85,696. Our estimated costs are
based on industry averages for construction production. Depending on the contractor’s performance,
our costs may be significantly reduced or slightly higher than estimated. A tabulation showing our
estimated hourly and/or unit rates associated with our proposed scope of services is also attached. The
actual cost of our services will be based on the actual units or hours expended to meet the requirements
of the project documents.
This cost estimate was developed with the understanding that the scope of services defined herein will
be required and requested during our normal work hours of 6:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., Monday through
Friday. Services that we are asked to provide to meet the project requirements or the contractor’s
construction schedule outside our normal business hours will be invoiced using an overtime rate factor.
The factor for services provided outside our normal work hours or on Saturday will be 1.25 times the
listed hourly rate for the service provided. The factor for services provided on Sunday or legal holidays
will be 1.5 times the listed hourly rate for the service provided. We have not included premiums for
overtime in our cost estimate; however, we recommend that allowances and contingencies be made for
overtime charges based on conversations with the contractor. You will be billed only for services
provided on a time and materials basis.
Because our services are directly controlled by the schedule and performance of others, the actual cost
may vary from our estimate. It is difficult to project all of the services and the quantity of services that
may be required for any project. If services are required that are not discussed above, we will provide
them at the rates shown in the attached table or, if not shown, at our current Schedule of Charges. We
will invoice you on a monthly basis.

General Conditions
Construction Material Testing and Special Inspections
GC-CMT Page 1 of 2
Section 1: Agreement
1.1 Our agreement with you consists of these
General Conditions and the accompanying written
proposal or authorization (“Agreement”). This
Agreement is the entire agreement between you
and us. It supersedes prior agreements. It may be
modified only in a writing signed by us, making
specific reference to the provision modified.
1.2 The words “you,” “we,” “us,” and “our”
include officers, employees, and subcontractors.
1.3 In the event you use a purchase order or
other documentation to authorize our scope of
work (“Services”), any conflicting or additional
terms are not part of this Agreement. Directing us
to start work prior to execution of this Agreement
constitutes your acceptance. If, however, mutually
acceptable terms cannot be established, we have
the right to terminate this Agreement without
liability to you or others, and you will compensate
us for fees earned and expenses incurred up to the
time of termination.
Section 2: Our Responsibilities
2.1 We will provide Services specifically
described in this Agreement. You agree that we
are not responsible for services that are not
expressly included in this Agreement. Unless
otherwise agreed in writing, our findings, opinions,
and recommendations will be provided to you in
writing. You agree not to rely on oral findings,
opinions, or recommendations without our
written approval.
2.2 In performing our professional services, we
will use that degree of care and skill ordinarily
exercised under similar circumstances by
reputable members of our profession practicing in
the same locality. If you direct us to deviate from
our recommended procedures, you agree to hold
us harmless from claims, damages, and expenses
arising out of your direction. If during the one year
period following completion of Services it is
determined that the above standards have not
been met and you have promptly notified us in
writing of such failure, we will perform, at our
cost, such corrective services as may be necessary,
within the original scope in this Agreement, to
remedy such deficiency. Remedies set forth in this
section constitute your sole and exclusive recourse
with respect to the performance or quality of
Services.
2.3 We will reference our field observations and
sampling to available reference points, but we will
not survey, set, or check the accuracy of those
points unless we accept that duty in writing.
Locations of field observations or sampling
described in our report or shown on our sketches
are based on information provided by others or
estimates made by our personnel. You agree that
such dimensions, depths, or elevations are
approximations unless specifically stated
otherwise in the report. You accept the inherent
risk that samples or observations may not be
representative of things not sampled or seen and
further that site conditions may vary over distance
or change over time.
2.4 Our duties do not include supervising or
directing your representatives or contractors or
commenting on, overseeing, or providing the
means and methods of their services unless
expressly set forth in this Agreement. We will not
be responsible for the failure of your contractors,
and the providing of Services will not relieve
others of their responsibilities to you or to others.
2.5 We will provide a health and safety program
for our employees, but we will not be responsible
for contractor, owner, project, or site health or
safety.
2.6 You will provide, at no cost to us,
appropriate site safety measures as to work areas
to be observed or inspected by us. Our employees
are authorized by you to refuse to work under
conditions that may be unsafe.
2.7 Unless a fixed fee is indicated, our price is an
estimate of our project costs and expenses based
on information available to us and our experience
and knowledge. Such estimates are an exercise of
our professional judgment and are not guaranteed
or warranted. Actual costs may vary. You should
allow a contingency in addition to estimated costs.
Section 3: Your Responsibilities
3.1 You will provide us with prior environmental,
geotechnical and other reports, specifications,
plans, and information to which you have access
about the site. You agree to provide us with all
plans, changes in plans, and new information as to
site conditions until we have completed Services.
3.2 You will provide access to the site. In the
performance of Services some site damage is
normal even when due care is exercised. We will
use reasonable care to minimize damage to the
site. We have not included the cost of restoration
of damage in the estimated charges.
3.3 If we notify you that radiographic or gamma
ray equipment or other nuclear testing or
measuring device will be used, you will be
responsible for the cooperation of your employees
and your contractors in observing all radiation
safety standards.
3.4 You will notify us of any knowledge or
suspicion of the presence of hazardous or
dangerous materials present on any work site. If
we observe or suspect the presence of
contaminants not anticipated in this Agreement,
we may terminate Services without liability to you
or to others, and you will compensate us for fees
earned and expenses incurred up to the time of
termination.
3.5 The time our field personnel spend on the
job site depends upon the scheduling of the work
we are observing or testing. You agree that any
changes in scheduling may result in additional
costs and agree to pay for those services at the
rates listed in our cost estimate.
3.6 You agree to include us as an indemnified
party in your contracts, if any, for work by others
on the project, protecting us to the same degree
as you are protected. You agree to list us as an
Additional Insured under your liability insurance
policies and to require subrogation be waived
against us and that we will be added as an
Additional Insured on all policies of insurance,
including any policies required of your contractors
or subcontractors, covering any construction or
development activities to be performed on the
project site.
Section 4: Reports and Records
4.1 Unless you request otherwise, we will
provide our report(s) in an electronic format.
4.2 Our reports, notes, calculations, and other
documents and our computer software and data
are instruments of our service to you, and they
remain our property. We hereby grant you a
license to use the reports and related information
we provide only for the related project and for the
purposes disclosed to us. You may not transfer our
reports to others or use them for a purpose for
which they were not prepared without our written
approval. You agree to indemnify, defend, and
hold us harmless from claims, damages, losses,
and expenses, including attorney fees, arising out
of such a transfer or use.
4.3 If you do not pay for Services in full as
agreed, we may retain work not yet delivered to
you and you agree to return to us all of our work
that is in your possession or under your control.
4.4 Electronic data, reports, photographs,
samples, and other materials provided by you or
others may be discarded or returned to you, at our
discretion, unless within 15 days of the report date
you give us written direction to store or transfer
the materials at your expense.
Section 5: Compensation
5.1 You will pay for Services as stated in this
Agreement. If such payment references our
Schedule of Charges, the invoicing will be based
upon the most current schedule. An estimated
amount is not a firm figure. You agree to pay all
sales taxes and other taxes based on your
payment of our compensation. Our performance is
subject to credit approval and payment of any
specified retainer.
5.2 You will notify us of billing disputes within 15
days. You will pay undisputed portions of invoices
upon receipt. You agree to pay interest on unpaid
balances beginning 30 days after invoice dates at
the rate of 1.5% per month, or at the maximum
rate allowed by law.
5.3 If you direct us to invoice a third party, we
may do so, but you agree to be responsible for our
compensation unless the third party is
Page 84 of 203
GC-CMT Revised 1/1/2018 Page 2 of 2
creditworthy (in our sole opinion) and provides
written acceptance of all terms of this Agreement.
5.4 Your obligation to pay for Services under this
Agreement is not contingent on your ability to
obtain financing, governmental or regulatory
agency approval, permits, final adjudication of any
lawsuit, your successful completion of any project,
receipt of payment from a third party, or any
other event. No retainage will be withheld.
5.5 If you do not pay us in accordance with this
Agreement, you agree to reimburse all costs and
expenses for collection of the moneys invoiced,
including but not limited to attorney fees and staff
time.
5.6 You agree to compensate us in accordance
with our Schedule of Charges if we are asked or
required to respond to legal process arising out of
a proceeding related to the project and as to
which we are not a party.
5.7 If we are delayed by factors beyond our
control, or if project conditions or the scope or
amount of work changes, or if changed labor
conditions result in increased costs, decreased
efficiency, or delays, or if the standards or
methods change, we will give you timely notice,
the schedule will be extended for each day of
delay, and we will be compensated for costs and
expenses incurred in accordance with our
Schedule of Charges.
5.8 If you fail to pay us in accordance with this
Agreement, we may consider the default a total
breach of this Agreement and, at our option,
terminate our duties without liability to you or to
others, and you will compensate us for fees
earned and expenses incurred up to the time of
termination.
5.9 In consideration of our providing insurance
to cover claims made by you, you hereby waive
any right to offset fees otherwise due us.
Section 6: Disputes, Damage, and Risk Allocation
6.1 Each of us will exercise good faith efforts to
resolve disputes without litigation. Such efforts
will include, but not be limited to, a meeting(s)
attended by each party’s representative(s)
empowered to resolve the dispute. Before either
of us commences an action against the other,
disputes (except collections) will be submitted to
mediation.
6.2 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in
this Agreement, neither party hereto shall be
responsible or held liable to the other for
punitive, indirect, incidental, or consequential
damages, or liability for loss of use, loss of
business opportunity, loss of profit or revenue,
loss of product or output, or business
interruption.
6.3 You and we agree that any action in relation
to an alleged breach of our standard of care or this
Agreement shall be commenced within one year
of the date of the breach or of the date of
substantial completion of Services, whichever is
earlier, without regard to the date the breach is
discovered. Any action not brought within that
one year time period shall be barred, without
regard to any other limitations period set forth by
law or statute. We will not be liable unless you
have notified us within 30 days of the date of such
breach and unless you have given us an
opportunity to investigate and to recommend
ways of mitigating damages. You agree not to
make a claim against us unless you have provided
us at least 30 days prior to the institution of any
legal proceeding against us with a written
certificate executed by an appropriately licensed
professional specifying and certifying each and
every act or omission that you contend constitutes
a violation of the standard of care governing our
professional services. Should you fail to meet the
conditions above, you agree to fully release us
from any liability for such allegation.
6.4 For you to obtain the benefit of a fee which
includes a reasonable allowance for risks, you
agree that our aggregate liability for all claims
will not exceed the fee paid for Services or
$50,000, whichever is greater. If you are
unwilling to accept this allocation of risk, we will
increase our aggregate liability to $100,000
provided that, within 10 days of the date of this
Agreement, you provide payment in an amount
that will increase our fees by 10%, but not less
than $500, to compensate us for the greater risk
undertaken. This increased fee is not the purchase
of insurance.
6.5 You agree to indemnify us from all liability
to others in excess of the risk allocation stated
herein and to insure this obligation. In addition,
all indemnities and limitations of liability set
forth in this Agreement apply however the same
may arise, whether in contract, tort, statute,
equity or other theory of law, including, but not
limited to, the breach of any legal duty or the
fault, negligence, or strict liability of either party.
6.6 This Agreement shall be governed,
construed, and enforced in accordance with the
laws of the state in which our servicing office is
located, without regard to its conflict of laws rules.
The laws of the state of our servicing office will
govern all disputes, and all claims shall be heard in
the state or federal courts for that state. Each of
us waives trial by jury.
6.7 No officer or employee acting within the
scope of employment shall have individual liability
for his or her acts or omissions, and you agree not
to make a claim against individual officers or
employees.
Section 7: General Indemnification
7.1 We will indemnify and hold you harmless
from and against demands, damages, and
expenses of others to the comparative extent they
are caused by our negligent acts or omissions or
those negligent acts or omissions of persons for
whom we are legally responsible. You will
indemnify and hold us harmless from and against
demands, damages, and expenses of others to the
comparative extent they are caused by your
negligent acts or omissions or those negligent acts
or omissions of persons for whom you are legally
responsible.
7.2 To the extent it may be necessary to
indemnify either of us under Section 7.1, you and
we expressly waive, in favor of the other only, any
immunity or exemption from liability that exists
under any worker compensation law.
Section 8: Miscellaneous Provisions
8.1 We will provide a certificate of insurance to
you upon request. Any claim as an Additional
Insured shall be limited to losses caused by our
negligence.
8.2 You and we, for ourselves and our insurers,
waive all claims and rights of subrogation for
losses arising out of causes of loss covered by our
respective insurance policies.
8.3 Neither of us will assign or transfer any
interest, any claim, any cause of action, or any
right against the other. Neither of us will assign or
otherwise transfer or encumber any proceeds or
expected proceeds or compensation from the
project or project claims to any third person,
whether directly or as collateral or otherwise.
8.4 This Agreement may be terminated early
only in writing. You will compensate us for fees
earned for performance completed and expenses
incurred up to the time of termination.
8.5 If any provision of this Agreement is held
invalid or unenforceable, then such provision will
be modified to reflect the parties' intention. All
remaining provisions of this Agreement shall
remain in full force and effect.
8.6 No waiver of any right or privilege of either
party will occur upon such party's failure to insist
on performance of any term, condition, or
instruction, or failure to exercise any right or
privilege or its waiver of any breach.

Approve Easement Acquisition Agreement for 185th Street Improvements
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve easement acquisition
agreement for 185th Street Improvements between Kenwood Trail and Ipava Avenue, City
Project 25-04.
Overview
The City and Dakota County are partnering to complete improvements to County State Aid
Highway (CSAH) 60 (185th Street) from CSAH 50 (Kenwood Trail) to Ipava Avenue. City
Project 25-04 is programmed in the City and County adopted five-year Capital Improvement
Plans to improve intersection operations, make safety improvements, and provide for increasing
traffic levels. The project includes widening to a four-lane divided urban roadway with
pedestrian/bicyclist facilities along both sides, intersection modifications and public utility
infrastructure improvements.
Construction of the project requires acquisition of additional permanent right-of-way, trail and
drainage and utility easements, and temporary construction easements to accommodate the
street, trail and drainage improvements. The City's consultant engineer contracted a consultant
and an independent appraiser to appraise the value of the easements. The appraisals were
reviewed and approved by City staff and the City Attorney. The City and property owner of
Parcel 24 reached agreement on terms and conditions of the required easements through direct
negotiation. Compensation and the conveyance of easements are subject to City Council
approval, verification of marketable title and lender consent (if applicable).
The City and County will share easement acquisition costs as established in the project's Joint
Powers Agreement. The City is the lead agency. Therefore, the total cost is reflected in this
memo. The City's estimated net cost for these easement acquisitions is $2,160.

PCL Construction Services Conditional Use Permit
Proposed Action
Staff recommends adoption of the following motion: Move to approve the PCL Construction
conditional use permit and adopt the findings of fact.
Overview
PCL Construction Services, located at 21435 Humboldt Court, has submitted a conditional use
permit application requesting approval of an exception to the exterior building materials
requirements of the I-1, Light Industrial District for the construction of a detached accessory
building. Exceptions to the material requirements may be allowed subject to approval of a
conditional use permit. The property includes two parcels, which have been combined into a
single parcel and property identification number, and totals 3.37 acres.
The Planning Commission held a public hearing on the conditional use permit at its November
7, 2024 meeting. The Planning Commission recommended approval of the conditional use
permit subject to three stipulations. One Planning Commissioner voted no. There was no public
comment.

Chair Majorowicz opened the public hearing to consider the application of PCL Construction
Services for a conditional use permit to allow an exception to the exterior building material
requirements in the I-1, Light Industrial District.
Trace Selly described the request to the Planning Commission. PCL is requesting approval of the
conditional use permit to allow construction of a storage shed that is dissimilar to the exterior
building materials of principal building on the property. The building would be constructed with
steel shipping containers was the wall structure and a fabric covered/hoop type of roof structure.

Ayes – unanimous
Chair Majorowicz asked for comments from the Planning Commission. Discussion points
included:
• Commissioner Traffas how long will the building be used? Mr. Selly explained that they are
entering into a five-year lease with two five-year options.
• Commissioner Swenson explained he is struggling with storage containers being used as the
base for this structure. What precedent is the City creating without a removal clause? Mr.
Dempsey stated that it is staff’s position that the containers have to remain in good condition,
freshly painted. Staff also considers the location where the request is being made, in a location
not directly adjacent to, or largely visible from a residential area.
Motion was made by Zimmer, seconded by Kaluza to recommend to City Council approval of
the conditional use permit for PCL Construction Services, subject to the three stipulations listed
below and approval of the Findings of Fact dated November 7, 2024, as amended:
1. The shipping container walls, and roof shall be freshly painted, free of dents, and hoop roof

site includes a 25,450 square foot warehouse/office building and a small detached accessory
storage building on a concrete surface. The property had previously included outdoor storage of
new and used tires by a previous building occupant.

Adjacent Land Uses. Adjacent land uses and zoning are as follows:
North – Public Park/Open Space (P/OS District)
East – Public Park/Open Space (P/OS District)
South – Humboldt Court and Industrial Properties/Buildings (I-1 District)

Setbacks and Building Size and Building Height. The minimum setbacks for the principal and
accessory structures in the I-1 District are 30 feet from the north (rear) property line and 10 feet
from the west (side) property line. The proposed and existing accessory buildings and the
existing principal building complies with setback requirements.
The proposed accessory building will be 2,640 square feet, or approximately 40’ x 65’. The
existing detached accessory building is approximately 22’ x 50’ (1,100 square feet), for a proposed
total area of 3,740 square feet. The Zoning Ordinance allows a maximum accessory building
square footage in the I-1 District not to exceed 30% of the square footage equivalent of the
principal building. The maximum square footage of accessory building area allowed is 7,635
square feet. The proposed total accessory building square footage falls within the allowable range
at 15%. The maximum proposed height will be 14 feet, six inches in height before being mounted
on the storage containers bringing the ceiling height to 22 feet. The maximum allowable building
height in the I-1 District is four stories or 50 feet. Exhibit F depicts the proposed building.
Building Materials. The accessory building is proposed to include steel shipping containers as
side and rear walls with an open front facing south. The roof material will be white, woven high-
density polyethylene coated fabric material. The Zoning Ordinance requires accessory buildings
to be constructed of similar materials as the principal building, however, exceptions may be
allowed if approved by conditional use permit. A stipulation of the conditional use permit will
recommend that the shipping container walls be newly painted, free of dents, and the roof
constructed of a durable material, requiring replacement or repair if damaged by weather or
other source.
Screening. The property is screened from the north, east, and west by landscaping installed with
the original building project in 2005 and natural growth vegetation and trees which includes
stands of mature trees on city-owned property. The landscaped buffer width ranges from
between 130 feet to the east to 180 plus feet to the west and northwest toward the residential
properties in those directions. A tall stand of natural growth trees is within the South Creek
corridor beyond the developed industrial sites and related landscaping installed at the time of
development that separates the residential area from the industrial zone properties to the south
and east. No additional screening is required with the proposed accessory building.
Access. Two separate driveways serve each separate platted parcel, one to the principal building
parking lot and the other to the now combined lot that will include the new accessory building.
Sanitary Sewer and Water Services. The property and the principal building are served with city
sewer, water, and storm sewer services. The proposed accessory building will not include sewer
and water services.

Forester; and Grace Benson, Forestry Tech.
2.Citizen Comments
There were no public comments.
3.Discussion Items
a.Discuss current and potential amendments to Tree Preservation Ordinance
Tina Goodroad presented draft revisions to the city’s tree preservation ordinance. As
Lakeville continues to grow, developing parcels will turn from agricultural to more tree-
dense. The current ordinance does not have any enforcement mechanism regarding tree
preservation and is developer-driven and does not provide any requirements for tree
protection, replacement, or replanting guidance. The goal of these changes would be tree
preservation and proper tree replacement.
City Forester Zach Jorgensen gave a short presentation about recent developments in
Lakeville in regard to how they handled tree preservation.
Council discussed and offered several suggestions/questions about how this would be
implemented. Concerns related to how we could continue to be a place welcoming to
new residential development without creating extra housing costs. Staff indicated this
would be a work item for the Planning Commission and Parks, Recreation, and Natural
Resources Committee in 2025 with further discussion at a future council work session.
b.Discuss Local Affordable Housing Aid (LAHA) partnership with Dakota County
Community Development Agency (CDA)
Tina Goodroad, Community Development Director, updated the council on the Dakota
County CDA’s LAHA partnership proposal. She explained to the council that cities
must identify how to spend money in three years and the spending must be made in four

years. The CDA is asking for a resolution of support by early December if the city
wishes to allocate their money to them. Dakota County is looking for a three-year
commitment from Lakeville and neighboring cities in Dakota County.
Council made note that they are hesitant about tying up all of the money on this
program and potentially missing out on a better opportunity in the future. They asked to
work with the County on flexibility in using these funds if an unexpected project were to
arise.
c.2025 Fee Schedule
Julie Stahl, Finance Director, presented the 2025 fee schedule to the council,
highlighting changes from the current schedule.
The 2025 Official Fee Schedule will be incorporated into the City Code with an
effective date of January 1, 2025, unless noted otherwise.
Council had questions relating to fees associated with Antlers Park, irrigation meters,
and sanitary sewer rates. Staff indicated they would look into these and present the
schedule at the December 2, 2024 council meeting.
d.2025 Proposed Utility Fund Budgets & Rate Projections
Discussion on this item was incorporated into the fee schedule discussion.
e.2025 Proposed Liquor Fund Budget
Finance Director Julie Stahl gave the presentation of the 2025 proposed Liquor Fund
budget. The budget has been reviewed and approved by liquor committee. Some of the
notable highlights include that across all locations, sales have decreased 1.2%. There
will be $1.74 Million in transfers and that there will be an increase of the equipment
fund from $500,000 to $900,000.
Council asked about the future of the Heritage location. Stahl answered that they are in
the process of finalizing the market study and this study will provide the
recommendations on what to do moving forward. The results will come in late
November and they are anticipating that the study will say that it is in the right location
with not enough square footage.
4.Items for Future Discussion
Councilmember Wolter asked that the city’s trash collection ordinance be added to the list
of topics to discuss in 2025. Mayor Hellier asked that the social district concept also be
added to the 2025 list.
5.Committee/ City Administrator Updates
Councilmember Wolter noted that the Liquor Committee met as per Julie's presentation.
Councilmember Lee added that the Personnel Committee met and direct reports submitted
Administrator Miller’s 360 review. . He will also be submitting a self-evaluation for the
council to review.
Councilmember Lee also stated that the SAFER Grant has created conversation for the
Relief association and that they are looking at vesting schedules and may be coming to
council with proposed changes

Mayor Hellier noted that the Regional Council of Mayors meeting discussed housing policy
at the legislature. Strategy among mayors will be determined after the election.
Councilmember Volk noted that Lakeville Arenas numbers look good and are anticipating
next year's numbers will look good because Bloomington is closing three arenas to renovate
next year. Lakeville should see a bump but then fall back to regular numbers. They will also
be leasing a snowblower and snow removal equipment.
Miller noted that voting is heavy at City Hall. Voting hours will be changing for this week.
There have been over 12,000 in-person voters so far.

Planning Commission Meeting Minutes, November 7, 2024 Page 2
Ayes – unanimous
Chair Majorowicz asked for comments from the Planning Commission. Discussion points
included:
• Commissioner Traffas how long will the building be used? Mr. Selly explained that they are
entering into a five-year lease with two five-year options.
• Commissioner Swenson explained he is struggling with storage containers being used as the
base for this structure. What precedent is the City creating without a removal clause? Mr.
Dempsey stated that it is staff’s position that the containers have to remain in good condition,
freshly painted. Staff also considers the location where the request is being made, in a location
not directly adjacent to, or largely visible from a residential area.
Motion was made by Zimmer, seconded by Kaluza to recommend to City Council approval of
the conditional use permit for PCL Construction Services, subject to the three stipulations listed
below and approval of the Findings of Fact dated November 7, 2024, as amended:
1. The shipping container walls, and roof shall be freshly painted, free of dents, and hoop roof
structure material shall be constructed of a durable material. The roof material shall be
replaced or repair if significant damage occurs by weather or other source.
2. A building permit shall be approved by the City prior to construction of the accessory
building.
3. The building shall be constructed in the location identified on the approved site plan.
Ayes: Traffas, Kaluza, Majorowicz, Zimmer, Einck
Nays: Swenson
Commissioner Swenson stated he felt the structure was acceptable when the request included the
stipulation for removal, but he is not comfortable with it as a permanent structure, alluding to the
long-term durability of the exterior building materials.
6. US Home, LLC (Lennar)
Chair Majorowicz opened the public hearing to consider the application of US Home, LLC
(Lennar) for a preliminary plat of 88 single family lots and 144 attached townhome lots in the RST-
2, Single- and Two-Family Residential District and RM-3, Medium Density District.
Steve Troskey of Lennar provided an introduction of the project to be known as Cedar Hills North.
Planning Manager Kris Jenson presented the staff report. The applicant is requesting approval of
a preliminary plat for 232 dwelling units on 148.6 acres. The Planning Commission previously
recommended approval of a comprehensive plan amendment and rezoning for this development
at their October 7 meeting, which was later approved by the City Council.
Page 120 of 203
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes, November 7, 2024 Page 3
Ms. Jenson reviewed the preliminary plat, including street layout, landscaping, and project
phasing. She also noted that stipulation #14 in the October 29 Planning report should be removed
as the language regarding garage width and area does not apply to the RM-3 district in this
development.
Chair Majorowicz opened the hearing to the public for comment.
Joe Samson, 20086 Gamma Lane, expressed concern about the lack of traffic control at 200th Street
and Cedar Avenue, making it difficult to turn left and go south. He has also witnessed accidents at
this intersection.
Motion was made by Zimmer, seconded by Einck to close the public hearing at 6:26 p.m.
Voice vote was taken on the motion.
Ayes – unanimous
Chair Majorowicz asked for comments from the Planning Commission. Discussion points
included:
• Commissioner Majorowicz ask if there are planned lights. Planning Manager Jenson explained
that both Cedar Avenue and 200th Street are county roads and that the intersection is being
monitored by Dakota County. It is likely that when 200th Street, west of Cedar Avenue, is rebuilt
as a paved urban street that restrictions will be added to the intersection at that time. Assistant
City Engineer Nelson added that the Developer is installing right turn lanes at the streets into
the Cedar Hills North development.
Motion was made by Kaluza, seconded by Zimmer to recommend to City Council approval of
the Cedar Hills North preliminary plat, subject to the 14 stipulations listed below, as amended:
1. Approval of the preliminary plat is contingent upon approval of the comprehensive plan
amendment by Metropolitan Council.
2. Implementation of the recommendations listed in the October 29, 2024 engineering report.
3. Park dedication shall be satisfied with a cash contribution paid with the final plat for each
development phase.
4. The developer shall construct five-foot-wide concrete sidewalks as shown on the
preliminary plat plans. The developer shall construct a bituminous trail along the north
side of 200th Street and the east side of Cedar Avenue, as shown on the plans.
5. Outlots B, C, and D shall be deeded to the City with the final plat.
6. Buffer yard landscaping shall be installed according to the approved landscape plan. A
security for the buffer yard landscaping shall be submitted with the final plat. The lots
abutting 200th Street must install sod to the side or rear property line and a $1,000 per lot
security will be required with the building permit.

Re: CEDAR HILLS NORTH
The Dakota County Plat Commission met on July 17, 2024, to consider the preliminary plat of the above
referenced plat. The plat is adjacent to CSAH 23 (Cedar Ave.) and CR 64 (200th St. W.) and is therefore
subject to the Dakota County Contiguous Plat Ordinance.
The preliminary plat includes a residential development north of County Road 64 (200th St W) and east
of CSAH 23 (Cedar Ave). The right-of-way needs are 50 feet of half right of way along CR 64 and 100 feet
of half right of way along CSAH 23. Access to the site along CR 64 include two accesses that align with
the south intersections at Gallifrey Way and Gadfly Way.
However, Gadfly Way is shown as a cul-de-sac and not a through street. The Plat Commission
recommended Gadley Way to be a through street. Restricted access should be shown along all of CSAH
23 and all of CR 64 except for two access openings at Gallifrey Way and Gadfly Way. A quit claim deed to
Dakota County for restricted access is required with the recording of the plat mylars.
According to the Cedar Avenue Corridor Study, the intersections at 197th Street/Cedar Avenue and
200th Street/Cedar Avenue are planned to be restricted in the future. Also, as noted, the traffic study
required by the Plat Commission on March 27, 2024, was recently received and the County Traffic
Engineer has not reviewed the study at this time.
The Plat Commission has approved the preliminary plat provided that the described conditions are met.
The Ordinance requires submittal of a final plat for review by the Plat Commission before a
recommendation is made to the County Board of Commissioners.
Traffic volumes on CSAH 23 and CR 64 are 21,800 and 2,421 ADT, respectively, and are anticipated to be
39,000 and 5,500 ADT by the year 2040. These traffic volumes indicate that current Minnesota noise
standards for residential units could be exceeded for the proposed plat. Residential developments along
County highways commonly result in noise complaints. In order for noise levels from the highway to
meet acceptable levels for adjacent residential units, substantial building setbacks, buffer areas, and
other noise mitigation elements should be incorporated into this development.
No work shall commence in the County right of way until a permit is obtained from the County
Transportation Department and no permit will be issued until the plat has been filed with the County
Recorder’s Office. The Plat Commission does not review or approve the actual engineering design of
proposed accesses or other improvements to be made in the right of way. Nothing herein is intended to
restrict or limit Dakota County’s rights with regards to Dakota County rights of way or property. The Plat
Commission highly recommends early contact with the Transportation Department to discuss the
EXHIBIT O

medians, etc. Please contact TJ Bentley regarding permitting questions at (952) 891-7115 or Todd
Tollefson regarding Plat Commission or Plat Ordinance questions at (952) 891-7070.

Utility Franchise Fees
Proposed Action
No action needed – Staff and Council will receive public comment regarding the proposed utility
franchise fees.
Overview
What are Franchise Fees?
In Lakeville, the city currently has franchise agreements with CenterPoint Energy, Minnesota
Energy Resources, Xcel Energy and Dakota Electric Association. The agreements allow the utility
companies to install their service lines within the city’s public rights-of-way to provide gas and
electric services to their customers. The utility companies have historically been allowed to install
their services in the city’s right-of-way free of charge. However, under Minnesota Statutes, cities
can impose a franchise fee on utility companies in exchange for the use of the public rights -of-
way.
What Is Their Intended Use?
As the city has grown to the 8th largest city in Minnesota, it is critical that the city provide public
safety services to keep up with growth and maintain the service levels expected by the public. Over
the next two years the city will be transitioning from a paid-on-call fire department to a hybrid
department with both paid-on-call (sometimes called volunteer) and full-time firefighters. This
transition will require all four of the existing fire stations to undergo extensive renovations and
reconstruction to provide the facilities needed to support a full-time staff. These renovations will
include apparatus bay expansion for the fire trucks, the addition of education and training areas
within the stations, the separation of decontamination areas from the rest of the station and the
addition of sleeping quarters, living areas and kitchen improvements that will be needed for a 24/7
staff. Renovations to the stations may also include future space for EMT staff, ambulances, and
equipment. The estimated cost for the improvements at all four stations is anticipated to range
between $60–$68 million.
In addition to the needed improvements to the fire stations, the City Council has initiated the design
and future construction of the FiRST Center. The FiRST Center will be the south metro’s premier
training facility for first responders. Preliminary plans include a 25- and 50-yard firing range large
enough to accommodate vehicle-related scenarios, large and small conference and classroom
space, mats training and virtual reality rooms, movable wall systems to create multiple rescue
scenarios, areas for smoke out and confined space training, second floor space for tactical and
scenario training, and outdoor and warehouse space for vehicle related scenarios and extrication
training. The FiRST Center is designed to be flexible to accommodate the training needs of police,
Page 188 of 203
fire, and medical response teams. Lakeville has received interest from over 18 south metro public
safety agencies interested in using the facility for ongoing training. In 2023 the Minnesota
Legislature allocated $7.1 million towards the FiRST Center project and in 2024 the city received
another $800,000 from federal legislators to go towards the construction of the facility. The city’s
cost to fully fund the construction of the project is estimated to be an additional $18 million.
How Is the Fee Determined?
To initially provide the funds needed to pay for the improvements to the fire and police facilities,
the city will need to issue general obligation bonds or loans that will be paid back over the next 20
years. The city calculated what the yearly payment would be to repay the 20-year loan and that
determined what would need to be collected through the franchise fees. The following chart
indicates the monthly franchise fee that would be charged to a single-family home for gas and
electric service would be $6.00 per utility or a total of $12.00 per household. The fee for
commercial and industrial users will vary based on their usage.
Why Franchise Fees and Not a Property Tax Levy?
Franchise fees are a set flat rate and do not fluctuate from year to year, unlike taxes which are
based on property values that change every year. The franchise fee will be a consistent rate that
residential, commercial, and industrial property owners can rely on. It is equally spread across all
gas and electric users including tax exempt properties such as schools, churches and nonprofits
that also benefit from fire and police services. The use of franchise fees also provides the least
financial impact versus taxes. For example, the set annual franchise fee cost for a residential home
is $144. If these costs were placed on the tax levy, this same home by 2026 would be paying an
additional $164.28 in taxes which would also continue to increase annually based on property
value. The savings between franchise fees and increased taxes for commercial and industrial
property owners is even greater. The following chart is an example of the cost comparisons of
franchise fees versus increased taxes.
