5. MEETING OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
Jacquie Goedel, President of the Miss Saint Francis Ambassador Program,
approached with Secretary Mackenzie Bauer and husband Brent Goedel, a board
member. Goedel introduced four of six Ambassadors representing the City
throughout the year and expressed gratitude to residents who supported the
Ambassadors' bake sale at Night to Unite, which fundraised for an overnight trip to
Northfield for the Ambassadors to represent St. Francis at Northfield's Jesse
James Days Parade.
2026-2027 Miss Saint Francis Ambassadors Josie Crandall, Samantha Brekke,
Lillian Becker, and Amiyah Carlson introduced themselves. Bauer took a group
photo of the Council with the Ambassadors, and Mayor Vogel noted that
Muehlbauer did not appear in the photo.
Goedel thanked the Council for support of the Ambassador Program and
expressed availability to serve the City as needed. Mayor Vogel thanked Goedel
and called for the next speaker.
Anna Filson, a City resident and teacher, spoke regarding traffic safety concerns
on City roads. Filson expressed gratitude for the Council's response to previous
concerns, including placement of a temporary speed monitor wagon on 235th
Avenue and a permanent speed limit sign. Filson thanked the City for brush
removal on the northwest side of Rum River Boulevard near 235th Avenue, noting
that clearing vegetation improved sight lines for vehicle and pedestrian crossing.
Filson noted that other county roads entering the City graduate speed limits from
50 or 55 miles per hour down to 35 miles per hour based on housing density. Filson
questioned whether residents on the west side have higher priority than residents
and children on the east side, noting Rum River Boulevard remains at 55 miles per
hour. Filson expressed concern about safety for children, adults, and pedestrians
and suggested pedestrian crossing signs similar to those near 221st Avenue and
Rum Lake Boulevard. Filson noted neighbors have intentionally driven at 35 miles
per hour through the intersection due to safety concerns and thanked the Council
for progress made while indicating intent to continue advocating for additional
traffic safety improvements.
6. SPECIAL BUSINESS
A. Alexandra House Presentation
Executive Director Tina Bronson presented Alexandra House, the only

Page 4 of 112

City Council Meeting Minutes

August 17, 2026

comprehensive domestic and sexual violence organization serving Anoka County.
Bronson noted the organization's mission is to empower survivors, inspire social
change, and provide education, support, and advocacy. The organization operates
10 programs, including emergency shelter, a 24-hour helpline, legal advocacy,
youth and elder abuse services, health care advocacy, housing, therapy, support
groups, community education, professional training, and Linus' Pet Haven, which
opened in January 2025 as the only pet co-sheltering program in the Twin Cities.
Bronson provided statistics on domestic and sexual violence in Anoka County. In
2025, law enforcement responded to 12,600 domestic-related calls and 800
criminal sexual conduct calls. 33 intimate partner homicides occurred in Minnesota
in 2025, with 10 already occurring in 2026. In the past year, 350 victims and
survivors spent over 8,300 nights in the emergency shelter. The organization's
lethality assessment program served 532 unduplicated victims with 522 referrals
directly from law enforcement for high-risk intimate partner cases.
For St. Francis, Bronson noted that in 2025, Alexandra House served 20 City
residents, responded to approximately 52 helpline calls, provided 88 legal
advocacy services, and received eight referrals directly from City Police. Cities
have invested approximately $152,000 collectively, representing approximately 53
cents per resident, paying directly for legal advocates, youth programming, and
crisis staff.
Robinson thanked Bronson and stated the Council should consider appropriating
funds, noting Chief Schwieger confirmed the City uses the services. Udvig noted
personal experience with domestic violence services and stated the Council should
revisit the issue.
Faanes agreed and expressed willingness to consider appropriating funds.
Muehlbauer thanked Bronson for attending but expressed concern that funding
charities sets a slippery precedent, stating his position on taxpayer-funded
charitable contributions remains unchanged.
Mayor Vogel praised the presentation and noted willingness to welcome further
discussion. Bronson replied that Alexandra House is public health and safety
infrastructure addressing a public health crisis and is not a nice-to-have.
7. PUBLIC HEARINGS - NONE
8. OLD BUSINESS
A. Ordinance Amendment - Section 3 Traffic, Second Reading
Ordinance 359 amending chapter 7, section 3 "traffic" of the city code
Resolution 2026-32 authorizing summary publication of Ordinance 359
Police Chief Todd Schwieger stated he was available to answer questions
regarding the ordinance or requested approval for the Second Reading. Mayor
Vogel asked whether anyone had questions, noting the Council was familiar with

Page 5 of 112

City Council Meeting Minutes

August 17, 2026

the ordinance from the First Reading. Udvig noted the need to inform residents
about upcoming changes through the City website or social media.
Schwieger stated the Police Department would provide updated information
displaying ordinance sections specific to St. Francis. Mayor Vogel explained he
had discussed the matter with Schwieger previously, noting that legal requirements
had to be met before the Second Reading could proceed.

9. NEW BUSINESS
A. Discuss Meeting Open to the Public
Mayor Vogel stated he had requested this agenda item to address an observation
that residents often seek immediate answers to questions, but the City is not
equipped to provide answers on the spot. Mayor Vogel proposed implementing an
optional sign-in sheet where residents provide contact information, enabling staff
to follow up with questions that cannot be answered during the meeting.
Faanes stated she liked the idea of collecting contact information and noted the
school district uses a similar process. Muehlbauer noted that eliminating the
Meeting Open to the Public section would be perceived negatively by residents
and that the form should be optional, not mandatory, especially for those offering

Page 6 of 112

City Council Meeting Minutes

August 17, 2026

comments rather than requesting follow-up responses. Udvig agreed the form
should be optional for those seeking responses, noting the section was initiated to
allow residents a chance to speak after hearing presentations.
Robinson stated that free speech should not be restricted and suggested working
with department heads to handle responses. Mayor Vogel asked the Council to
settle the question of whether the form should be mandatory or optional for those
requesting follow-up. Robinson confirmed he was not opposed to making the form
optional. Mayor Vogel suggested staff could develop a sample form.
Deputy Administrator-City Clerk Jenni Wida explained that presenting the form at
a future meeting is unnecessary, noting that if the Council was changing the
agenda layout written into City code, implementation could begin immediately upon
Council approval. Mayor Vogel stated that, after discussion, he was not opposed
to having an optional sign-in form available to residents seeking follow-up
responses, provided it is not greatly abused, and thanked the Council for the
discussion, noting the main concern is ensuring questions asked by residents are
answered when possible.
B. South 47 Retail Site Plan
Resolution 2026-31 approving the site plan for the St. Francis Strip Mall
City Planner Beth Richmond presented the site plan for a proposed multi-tenant
retail building located at 4201 Saint Francis Boulevard. The site is a vacant 3/4acre parcel with residential development to the north, industrial to the south, and
commercial properties to the east. The site is guided for commercial use and zoned
B-2, the general commercial zoning district. The proposed building is a 6,900
square foot multi-tenant retail structure containing three tenant spaces with access
from Cree Street Northwest, including the building, stormwater facilities, and a new
parking lot.
The Planning Commission reviewed the site plan at its July meeting, and changes
were made to the site plan. The building size was reduced from approximately
7,500 square feet to 6,900 square feet to meet required setbacks and parking
requirements. 28 parking spaces are required, with 29 spaces provided. The
proposed facade consists of brick veneer, Nichiha siding, and concrete block
veneer. Nichiha siding is comparable in grade and quality to stucco, is cementbased, pre-colored, and has durability equivalent to stucco with a 30-year
warranty. The south facade facing Highway 47 was revised to include windows
throughout and different facade articulations.
Richmond requested action to approve with conditions, deny, or table. Mayor
Vogel asked Council members whether they had questions. All indicated they had
no questions.

C. Anoka County Sheriff's Office Safe County Pilot Project
Lieutenant Mendoza from the Anoka County Sheriff's Office presented on the Safe
County Program, a collaborative initiative including Automated License Plate
Reader (ALPR) technology and drone-assisted response technology. Mendoza
explained that ALPR technology captures still images of vehicle rear license plates
and compares plate numbers against a Bureau of Criminal Apprehension hotlist
every 6 hours. The technology does not have facial recognition capability, noting
it is illegal in Minnesota for the government to use facial recognition, and has no
direct access to criminal justice databases.
Mendoza noted that the data captured is a picture with no personally identifiable
information, consisting only of the vehicle and license plate. Photo data is
automatically deleted after 30 days unless law enforcement retains it for a lawful
purpose such as a criminal investigation, which requires documentation. Searches
require a specified offense type, case number, and justification. Searches for
immigration, reproductive care, or other triggers have been disabled and will block
the search. There is no nationwide search available for Minnesota data, and oneto-one agreements with each agency are required for sharing.
Mendoza provided success stories including a sexual assault case where ALPR
located a vehicle that allowed a victim to be safely returned to Minnesota and a
stolen vehicle case where two children were recovered within minutes. Regarding
drone-assisted response, Mendoza explained the county has had a drone program
since 2016 governed by Minnesota Statute 66.19 with 13 exemptions to search
warrant requirements, including crime in progress and missing persons searches.
Drones can be flown to assist City entities such as public works or emergency
management upon written request.
Mendoza described the drone deployment process. Drones prepositioned
throughout the county in their dock are called for service that meets warrant
exemption criteria. Once a call is prompted to a pilot, the pilot reviews whether the
call meets exceptions. If exceptions are not met, the flight is declined. If exceptions
are met, the drone is remotely launched and responds within 90 seconds. Drones
land autonomously, and pilots must file required state documentation and an
Incident Case Report. Drones can reach scenes within 90 seconds, whereas

Page 8 of 112

City Council Meeting Minutes

August 17, 2026

squad response time might take 5 to 10 minutes.
Mendoza stated the primary benefit of drone technology for public safety is to the
Fire Service. Thermal imagery from house fires demonstrates dangerous spots on
roofs that firefighters cannot see from ground level, allowing fire chiefs to
determine safe personnel placement. The program was unanimously supported by
the entire Fire Protection Council and the entire Anoka County Chiefs of Police
Association.
Mendoza stated that the Sheriff's Office currently has 13 ALPR camera locations.
ALPR data is retained for 30 days; drone data is retained for 7 days if not
evidentiary; ALPR data is not shared with federal agencies, and immigration and
reproductive care searches are prohibited and blocked. Biannual system-wide
audits are conducted with additional internal rolling audits every 30 days.
Minnesota has some of the strongest privacy protection laws in the nation and one
of the strictest ALPR statutes in the country. All searches are logged, and abnormal
activity is automatically flagged.
Mendoza addressed privacy protections. Nationwide searches of Minnesota data
are prohibited, protected data is blocked, federal agencies cannot access the
system, and Minnesota law has a strict drone policy. Anything falling outside of
warrantless search exceptions requires a judge-signed search warrant. Drone
flights are documented and logged, footage with evidentiary value is saved to case
files, and non-evidentiary footage is deleted as required by state law.
Muehlbauer asked about camera ownership and replacement costs. Mendoza
stated the Sheriff's Office owns Flock data and pays replacement costs for
damaged cameras. Muehlbauer stated he wanted to apologize for previous
concerns about surveillance and expressed understanding that public concern
exists regarding Flock. Mendoza addressed the contract amount, clarifying that it
came in $500 under the threshold. Mendoza explained the Sheriff felt it was better
to do a trial rather than commit to a 10-year contract.
Mendoza addressed misuse of ALPR systems nationally, stating that year to date,
18 people have been found misusing the system nationwide and all have been
terminated and criminally referred. With over a million officers in the United States,
18 represents an extremely low percentage. Mendoza noted that very strict rules
exist for who can access the system and that not attending training or meeting
requirements will result in being shut down. Muehlbauer asked whether misuse is
classified as a misdemeanor. Mendoza stated that it is, but that it is a prohibited
offense, meaning the person loses their law enforcement license and gets
criminally charged.
Faanes noted that drones are a separate program from cameras and stated that
drones going to fire emergency scenes would be fantastic and helpful for
emergency workers. Faanes stated appreciation for the presentation and noted

Page 9 of 112

City Council Meeting Minutes

August 17, 2026

she would like to hear what Chief Schwieger thinks about the program.
Mendoza noted that most cities cancelling Flock contracts switched to Axon and
are getting the same technology with a different company. Mendoza stated that
confidence and accuracy are a significant difference, with Flock having a
substantially higher accuracy rate. Udvig stated she does not necessarily have a
problem with Flock cameras but has to listen to constituents' questions and that
there is a lack of faith in government in general.
Robinson thanked Mendoza for the presentation and asked what the budget
impact would be for the City after one year. Mendoza responded that the plan is to
prove the concept first and then present to JLEC. Robinson asked whether the
County will place cameras on their roads without the City's input if the City decides
not to opt in. Mendoza stated no, but cautioned against creating technology dead
zones, explaining that criminals actively avoid where ALPRs are.
Robinson asked why news media did not report that agencies switching from Flock
went to Axon instead. Mendoza stated that some major cities that left their Flock
contract switched to Axon but that Flock tends to be a lightning rod for media focus.
Mendoza noted that Flock is not the only ALPR company and listed several
vendors including Axon, Milestone, Vercada, Panasonic, and Motorola.
Mayor Vogel stated that most questions have been answered and praised the
presentation. Mayor Vogel stated full support for the drone program but indicated
that passive data collection is a bridge too far. Muehlbauer asked whether the
Council would be privy to look at the contract. Mendoza stated there is no hard
date, but as permitting progresses, the City's active engagement will determine
deployment priorities.
Police Chief Todd Schwieger stated the big picture is understanding what data is
being collected—license plate numbers, characters, and vehicle descriptions.
Schwieger noted the only way to let the system prove itself is by using it and getting
success stories. Schwieger shared success stories from St. Francis, including a
welfare check incident where a KOPS alert helped locate individuals and a burglary
incident where a Flock camera helped recover property.
Mendoza offered additional comments, stating that a transparency portal will be
on the website showing searchable information and use cases. Mendoza noted
that the Sheriff emphasized that residents pay significant money for law
enforcement and questioned whether giving law enforcement the best technology
is prudent.
Faanes asked for clarification on the current status and whether the City is in the
pilot program. Mendoza stated that nothing has been deployed as a pilot program
yet and the contract term does not start until the first documented operational flight
of a drone. Mendoza explained that zero City streets will be involved, with all

Page 10 of 112

City Council Meeting Minutes

August 17, 2026

cameras on County highway or state right-of-way, and if a City decides to opt out,
that will be respected.
Faanes asked whether St. Francis is in the pilot program. Mendoza explained there
was no opt-in as the law enforcement community was moving forward as a joint
operation, but that some cities, like Columbia Heights, said absolutely not.
Mendoza stated locations have been identified for St. Francis cameras and drones.
Mayor Vogel stated confusion about how the City can opt out without a consensus
vote. Mendoza responded that the determination was made through
communication with Chief Schwieger. Mayor Vogel noted a consensus vote should
occur on the drone part at minimum.
Schwieger stated the purpose tonight was to get a consensus of where the Council
stands on being part of the pilot. Mayor Vogel asked about a deadline for providing
feedback. Mendoza stated there is no hard date, but as permitting progresses, the
City's active engagement will determine deployment priorities. Mendoza noted the
department has no sharing agreements with federal agencies and this is an Anoka
County project.
Faanes asked whether the City can opt out of cameras and opt in for drones.
Mendoza confirmed yes. Faanes stated she would want to opt in for drones and
indicated interest in voting.
Mayor Vogel asked for consensus on the drone program. Udvig stated she would
like to opt in for the drone and agreed it is a very good tool but indicated the City
needs to proceed with caution. Robinson stated he would vote for drones currently
and see how the countywide pilot program goes.
Muehlbauer stated 100 percent support for drones and asked whether there were
supposed to be two license plate readers. Mendoza stated three, potentially four,
with one southbound on Highway 47 near Ambassador toward the border and one
at 227th. Muehlbauer noted drones are a no-brainer.
Mayor Vogel stated feedback will be brought back to the Sheriff, and the Council
is happy to discuss again anytime. Mendoza offered to work with Chief Schwieger
to come back in a few months to discuss ALPRs further and stated that steps will
include working with the City engineer and Public Works Director on drone
installation at the Police Department.
Faanes stated that sounds great. Mendoza stated feedback will be continually
funneled back, noting this is a continual project. Mayor Vogel thanked Mendoza
for the time, and Mendoza thanked the Council for having him.
Muehlbauer asked whether sharing positive statistics and data with the County
regardless of current cameras would be legal. Mendoza stated the Sheriff's Office

Page 11 of 112

City Council Meeting Minutes

August 17, 2026

has not been overt in communications about successes, and this will change.
Mendoza noted a transparency portal is being built and referenced the Elk Grove,
California transparency portal as a model for what St. Francis might follow.
10. MEETING OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
Tina Carroll, a City resident, spoke regarding Alexandra House. Carroll stated that
while some refer to it as a charity, it is a lifesaver. Carroll shared that without family
support during an abusive relationship, she and her son would not be alive today.
Carroll praised the security of Alexandra House and expressed gratitude to
Schwieger and all police and first responders for utilizing the organization. Carroll
requested that the Council reconsider donating money to support the program,
noting that while Flock technology will save people, Alexandra House saves
women, men, and children.
Jim Tyson, a City resident, spoke regarding the Flock and drone programs. Tyson
expressed criticism of packaging good programs with unwanted programs to
achieve passage and stated support for drones but questioned the connection
between license plate cameras and drone assistance. Tyson addressed concerns
about artificial intelligence and nondeterministic systems, expressing concern that
a system unable to perfectly read license plate digits could create false matches.
Tyson recommended the City either hold a larger public meeting or place the issue
on the ballot and requested that drones and cameras be separate decisions.
Mike Powell, a City resident, addressed two topics. Powell spoke regarding Flock
technology and license plate misidentification, sharing a personal experience from
the early 1990s when he was subjected to a felony stop at gunpoint after being
misidentified. Powell expressed concern that Flock technology could amplify such
risks.
Powell then addressed public comment procedures, expressing disappointment
regarding limitations mentioned in the agenda. Powell characterized such
limitations as censorship and expressed frustration with the Council sending a
letter regarding limitations on public comment. Powell stated he prefers to speak
in person and noted he has asked questions about property behind Subway for a
year and a half and received different answers from Council members and
department heads. Powell expressed appreciation for the respect the Council has
shown when indicating time is up and requested a better plan for resident input
that does not restrict freedom to speak.
11. REPORTS - NONE
12. COUNCIL MEMBER REPORTS
The Council shared the meetings and events they attended in the past few weeks,
as well as highlighting upcoming events.

Robinson reported attending National Night Out and noting impressive community
participation. Robinson praised Public Works staff for their enthusiastic
participation and effort.
Udvig attended National Night Out and noted strong community attendance and
positive response to activities. Faanes expressed appreciation for resident
participation in public comments and explained that the form discussed earlier was
intended as a tool for ensuring responses rather than discouraging participation.
Faanes explained the form was meant to clarify outstanding questions and ensure
appropriate staff follow-up and emphasized the Council wants to hear from
residents.
Muehlbauer reported that he was working out of town and did not attend National
Night Out.
Mayor Vogel reported attending National Night Out and thanked staff for their effort.
Mayor Vogel noted that all Council members attended the special canvassing

SPECIAL BUSINESS
A.
Canvass Results of the Recount for the Office of Mayor
Deputy Administrator-City Clerk Wida presented the results of the mayoral
recount held Thursday, August 20, 2026, at the Anoka County Government
Center. The recount was conducted by four St. Francis election judges who also
served at the August 11 primary election, with City staff and the Anoka County
Elections Director present. Candidate Sarah Udvig and Councilmember Amy
Faanes were also in attendance.
Wida reported that the election judges hand counted each precinct. In Precinct 1,
one ballot contained a light X through the oval for candidate Aaron Hill. The ballot
counting equipment had recorded the ballot as an undervote on election day
because the oval was not filled in. During the recount, the ballot was determined
to show voter intent and one vote was added for Hill. The remaining ballots
recorded as undervotes were blank. The vote total for Sarah Udvig did not
change.
The recount resulted in a tie between Sarah Udvig and Aaron Hill, with 295 votes
each. The Council, acting as the canvassing board, was required to accept the
recount results and determine the winner by lot.

Butterfield Drive Manhole and Sewerline Rehabilitation Project
September 8, 2026

OVERVIEW:
In December of last year, the city was notified by a resident of Butterfield Dr. that there
was a sewer backup. Upon investigating the problem, it was determined that the city's
sanitary main had a failed pipe joint and was allowing root intrusion from a nearby
willow tree that infiltrated and caused a blockage. Public works have the sanitary main
and manholes ear marked for complete rehabilitation in the 2027 CIP. Knowing that the
pipe joint is still considered failing, staff would like to move a portion of this project
ahead one year and correct the root intrusion portion in 2026 to prevent other issues.
Work would also include the rehab of the three 50-year-old manholes along this stretch
of sewer main. This work will be completed by two different companies. Empire pipe will
repair the failed sanitary main pipe joint, and Hydro Klean will rehab the three
manholes.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:
Council to consider and approve the rehabilitation of Butterfield Dr. sanitary main and
manholes.
BUDGET IMPLICATION:
The rehabilitation of the Butterfield Dr. sanitary main and manholes will be funded out of
the sewer CIP.

To approve Resolution 2026-33 which declares a white snowmobile trailer top, a Bobcat
skid loader bucket, and a homemade flatbed trailer related to St. Francis Police case
number 25075615 as abandoned property.

dispose of the property. St. Francis city code 8-7-2 (C) authorizes the City to sell
abandoned property to the highest bidder at public auction or in the manner directed by
Council.

Rental License Approvals
September 8, 2026

OVERVIEW:
The City created rental codes in 2014 to work with property owners on registration and
expectations. In 2019, codes were updated to address a number of issues that
Community Development and the Police Department faced when working with rental
properties.
As part of the update, Code was changed to create a process in which Council
approves, suspends or revokes Rental Licenses.
The tentative timeline of the City rental program will be as follows:
• November, letter to applicable rental properties
• January 15th, rental applications due
• Completed applicants move to Council
• February 1st – second letter with late fee to missing applications
• March 16th – third letter with late fees to missing applications
• First week of May – first citation to be sent on missing applications
As rental property applications are received, inspections are scheduled and conducted.
The attached property units have been inspected and are ready for Council approval.
The properties to be considered have been shown to meet all of the requirements in
City Code Chapter 4, Section 6.

Willow Ridge Business Center Site Plan Exterior Building Materials

OVERVIEW:
The City approved Resolution 2026-14 approving a site plan for the Willow Ridge
Business Center on May 4, 2026. This commercial office building is proposed to be
located on the parcel east of Cree Street NW and west of St. Francis Boulevard NW
(PIN 06-33-24-11-0102).
Following the approval, the applicant conducted required soil boring tests on the site
and found that the proposed location of the building was unsuitable for the construction
of a building due to poor soils and the proximity to the existing infiltration basin on site.
The applicant submitted an application for administrative site plan review to move the
building roughly 60 feet south and relocate the parking lot to the east side of the building
between the building and St. Francis Blvd NW.
As Staff reviewed the administrative site plan application, the applicant has been
working to fulfill the conditions of Resolution 2026-14. Condition 2 in Resolution 2026-14
states “The front building façade (SE side) shall be revised to ensure that 100% of the
façade is made up of high-quality materials as listed in Code Section 10-71-08 Building
Type and Construction.”
The applicant has proposed to construct the front face of the building (facing east) with
black metal panels made of metal composite material (MCM). In the B-2 District, City
Code allows materials that are “comparable in grade and quality” to materials such as
face brick, natural stone, glass, stucco, pre-cast concrete units, and concrete block to
be used to make up 100% of the exterior finish for the front wall. Staff reviewed the
information provided by the applicant about MCM panels and determined that this
material was not “comparable in grade and quality” to the allowable materials listed in
the City Code based on the following criteria:
• Warranty period: The applicant has indicated that the warranty period for the proposed
MCM panels is 20 years. Other exterior materials that have been deemed to be
“comparable” for other commercial projects within the B-2 District within the last several
months have had warranty periods of 30 and 45 years (nichiha siding – a cement-based

Page 73 of 112

product; and steel paneling, respectively).
• Durability: In an assessment completed by HTG Architects, MCM panels were found to
have “very good” durability, while brick, precast concrete, and natural stone had
“excellent” durability.
• Longevity: The applicant referenced the Certified Commercial Property Inspectors
Association and noted that aluminum cladding (similar to the MCM panels proposed),
cement stucco, and concrete exterior materials have a useful life of approximately 30-50
years, while brick and natural stone generally last longer (70+ years).

The applicant has disputed Staff’s decision, and has requested that the City Council
review the request and make a determination.

ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:
The City Council is requested to review the materials and to make a determination with
findings of fact about whether MCM panels are “comparable in grade and quality” to the
allowable exterior materials for the front wall of a commercial building in the B-2
District.

Architectural Grade Appearance
MCM panels provide high-quality, uniform finish, design versatility and flexibility.
Durability and Longevity
MCM systems are designed for long-term exterior exposure with resistance to weathering,
UV degradation, corrosion, and moisture. Factory applied coatings maintain color and
appearance for decades with minimal maintenance requirements.
Building Envelope Performance
MCM assemblies are engineered to meet demanding structural, wind-load, waterresistance, and fire-performance requirements, including NFPA 285 compliant systems.
These performance standards place MCM systems within the same class of highperformance facade materials as brick veneer, precast concrete, and natural stone
cladding.
Design and Construction Advantages
Compared with brick, precast, and stone, MCM offers similar visual quality while reducing
structural load and allowing more complex shapes.

STORAGE






Stored in a well-ventilated, dry place where no moisture can contact the panels. Moisture (from rain, snow,
condensation, etc.) trapped between layers of material may cause water stains or white rust, which can
affect the service life of the material and will detract from its appearance.
If outdoor storage cannot be avoided, protect the panels with a ventilated canvas or waterproof paper
cover. Do not use plastic, which can cause condensation. Keep the material off the ground in an inclined
position with an insulator such as wood, or keep panels crated.
Storage of end-use materials with protective film applied to the surface should be:
o Less than six months with masking applied (warehouse storage and outdoor exposure combined).
o Stored in an enclosed building or holding facility.
o Wrapped/packaged to prevent exposure to direct UV, water, oils, or other contaminants.
o Protective film may become brittle with long term UV exposure.
o Maintained in an environment within a temperature range of 45 to 90 °F (7 to 32 °C) and 20 to 80%
relative humidity.

PRECAUTIONS







Oil canning is not a cause for rejection. Heavier gauges, narrower widths, striations, and embossing
minimize oil canning.
Sealant for end laps and lap joints shall be non-drying, non-toxic, and non-shrinking with a serviceable
temperature of -60 to 212 °F (-51 to 100 °C).
Quality, long-life butyl sealants work best as a gasket sandwiched between two pieces of metal. Nonacetic cured silicone color matching sealants are recommended when voids must be filled. Sealants are
not a substitute for proper assembly and workmanship.
Exercise caution when lifting, moving, transporting, storing, or handling UNA-CLAD metal to avoid
possible physical damage.
Immediately remove protective film after installation.

Fire Board Training Reimbursement
September 8, 2026

OVERVIEW:
Annually, the Fire Department receives reimbursements from the Minnesota Board of
Firefighter Training and Education. This reimbursement comes mid-year and the current
year under discussion is regarding funds for July 1, 2025, to June 20, 2026. As Council
is aware, Fire was a department under the City from July through December and
became a stand-alone District on January 1st, 2026.
When the first reimbursement was received in the amount of $7,453.00, due to the midyear split, Finance split the award and provided half to the City fund and half to the
District. The reason the first funding allocation was split was that both entities had
shared in the costs. A second allocation, that was not anticipated, has been received.
Although funds could support costs that were paid by the City for the last half of last
year, any funds receipted would be applied to the current year's costs as last year's
funds are audited and closed. Funds would also greatly benefit the Fire District as they
continue to work to maintain a budget and build any opportunity for reserves. This
would support their current year's budget.
The second reimbursement that has been received was in the amount of $23,259.61.
Staff is requesting the Council determine how they would like funds distributed:
1. Split the funds between the two entities
2. Grant all funding to the Fire District
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:
Council to provide direction on funding award distribution.

Request for Anoka County HRA Funds for Easement & Burn Property
September 8, 2026

OVERVIEW:
As we continue to move forward with our Hwy 47 Infrastructure project, the next step is
to address a required easement that runs along Hwy 47, north of Ambassador Blvd.
The City will be working with the landowner to obtain an easement to place the utility
line along the ease side of the Hwy outside of the MnDOT right-of-way. This easement
will be used for the infrastructure lines that will be installed as part of the state and
federal bonding allocations. However, State and Federal bonding dollars cannot be
used for this step of the project.
Within this easement and its workspace there is an existing home that needs to be
removed. Working with the property owner and Fire District, this property qualifies for a
live burn, fire training. The Fire District will continue to work with the necessary state
permitting on this site. City staff and the property owner will work on the environmental
review to ensure a safe burn for everyone.
The property we are working on is located at 23925 St. Francis Blvd, and the home is
sitting vacant. Staff visited the property and found it to be in extreme disrepair.
Removing this property as part of this project will remove a blighted structure. The
current property owner inherited this property and is not living onsite. It had been a
rental property in the past but has been vacant now for several years.
One source of funding that is available to assist the City is the Anoka County HRA
dollars. Dollars can be used to pay for abatement, removal of the accessory structures,
removal of burn remnants, and if the property does not obtain a permit from the DNR,
funds can pay for the demolition if we need to go that direction.
The process to utilize the funds includes a request to the Anoka County Housing and
Redevelopment Authority through resolution. Once this request is submitted, it will move
forward to the ACHRA Board for final approval at the end of the month. These funds
are utilized on a reimbursement basis. As Staff is requesting to set aside $75,000, we
are hopeful that level of funding is not necessary. Unspent funds will remain in our
account with Anoka County for use on a future qualified project. These funds are
regulated by State Statute.

Rum River Fire District 2027 Budget Approval
September 8, 2026

OVERVIEW:
The Rum River Fire District Fire Board completed its review of the proposed 2027
operating budget over the past several months. After reviewing and discussing the
budget, the Fire Board unanimously approved the 2027 budget at its meeting on August
25, 2026. The board approved budget totals $1,046,200. It provides funding to continue
delivering reliable fire and emergency services while supporting firefighter training,
equipment replacement, vehicle and building maintenance, and other day-to-day
operating needs. The 2027 budget also reflects several ongoing costs associated with
operating a joint powers fire district, including Fiscal Agent services ($24,000), facility
lease payments ($48,000), legal services ($5,000), and Metro-Inet technology costs and
a 3% COLA for all staff. In addition, the budget continues the District's move toward a
more stable and predictable approach to capital planning by making consistent annual
investments in apparatus, equipment, and facility needs rather than relying on large
budget increases in individual years.
The board approved budget does not include any additional FTE staff positions.
Instead, it focuses on maintaining current service levels while responsibly planning for
the future. Under the Rum River Fire District Joint Powers Agreement, each member
city's annual contribution is calculated using a funding formula based equally on
population and adjusted net tax capacity. This approach helps ensure that costs are
shared fairly between the City of St. Francis and the City of Bethel.
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:
It is recommended that the City Council approve Rum River Fire District's board
approved 2027 budget and acknowledge the City's contribution of $988,222 as part of
the City's 2027 budget and levy process.

Page 92 of 112

BUDGET IMPLICATION:
Based on the board approved 2027 budget:
• Total Rum River Fire District Budget:$1,046,200.00
• City of St. Francis Contribution:$988,222
The City of St. Francis' contribution has been incorporated into the City's proposed 2027
budget.

2027 Preliminary Tax Levy and Adjustment to Debt Service Levies
September 8, 2026

OVERVIEW:
As we develop the annual budget, the City remains focused on investing in core
services and long-term community stability. Key priorities include funding ongoing street
rehabilitation, retaining staff, sustaining high-quality public safety services, enhancing
our parks, trails, and public facilities, and planning responsibly for future growth.
Council will receive a presentation on the 2027 Tax Levy and will then need to act on
two resolutions:
1. 2027 Bonded Debt Levy: Adjusts the tax levy needed for debt service on the
City’s two outstanding bonds: the 2017A GO Capital Improvement Bonds and
2023A GO Capital Improvement Bonds. The City has averaged the levy over the
life of the bonds to maintain a consistent levy. The Water and Sewer Funds also
contribute toward repayment of the 2017A Bonds. The resolution adjusts the levy
to the amount needed for the bond payments.
2. 2027 Preliminary Levy and Budget Hearing: State law requires the City to certify
its preliminary 2027 levy to the County by September 30, 2026. The levy cannot
be increased when the final levy is adopted in December. This resolution also
sets the Public Hearing on the 2027 Levy and Budget for Monday, December 7,
2026, at 6:00 p.m., as part of the regular City Council meeting, allowing for public
input.
Please refer to the attached slide presentation for a breakdown of the 2027 Tax Levy.
Additional discussion and presentations on the overall City budget, to include Enterprise
funds, will be presented in future weeks' meetings. Approval of the preliminary tax levy
is before you tonight
ACTION TO BE CONSIDERED:
Approve the attached resolution 2026-37 adjusting the debt service levy for 2027.
