BACKGROUND I spoke with Chuck Ballentine on December 22, 1995, It was indicated to me at that time that the Andover request for MUSA through the comprehensive plan would not be considered unless the City adopted the Livable Communities Act. , ) It does not seem prudent at this point to continue with the comprehensive plan amendment if there is no chance of it being accepted, Staff is requesting that the Council either reconsider the Livable Communities Act or relieve staff from the assignment of the comprehensive plan update. POTENTIAL IMPACTS There are a number of ramifications which should be taken into consideration: 'Oecrease in bUilding penn its 'Reduced number of billable engineering assignments 'Increased environmental risks 'Negative Impact on sewer debt and rates 'Loss of all State grants including parks 'Negative budget Impacts 'Negative innuence on bond rating REVIEW * '. , I METROPOLITAN LIVABLE COMMUNITIES ACT The Act was enacted in June 1995. It is the legislature's attempt to address various issues facing the seven county metropolitan area, The act establishes a Metropolitan Livable Communities Fund which consists of three accounts, The Tax Base Revitalization Account, the Livable Communities Demonstration Account and the Local Housing Incentive Account. The metropolitan municipalities are not required to participate in the programs under the act, but the act provides incentives and funding to those municipalities who participate, The program was developed to encourage affordable and lifestyle MOTION BY: SECOND BY: housing development throughout the metropolitan area so that it does not remain confined to pockets of small low income areas, "LIFE CYCLE HOUSING" Lifecycle housing refers to housing available for people at all stages of their lives, offering a choice and variety of housing types and costs to accommodate peoples changing needs and preferences as their incomes and circumstances change, "ALHOA" The Affordable and Lifecycle Housing Opportunities Amount is an amount established by formula that a participating City must spend to create affordable and lifecycle housing or to maintain existing housing, The amount can be derived from a levy or from funds from another source, The amount of ALHOA funds to be generated each year by the City of Andover are presently approximately $16,000, If the City were to enact a Livable Communities Act, this money stream would not come into effect until 1997, \ ) CONSEQUENCES OF NOT JOINING If Andover elects not to participate in the program the City will not be eligible to participate in the Tax Base Revitalization Account and Livable Communities Demonstration programs under the act. The Metropolitan Council is required by the act to take into account Andover's participating in the Local Housing Incentive Account program in making discretionary funding decisions, In addition, the City will not be eligible to apply for funds under the Department of Trade and Economic Developments Polluted Site Cleanup Program, LIVABLE COMMUNITIES FUND * The Tax Base Revitalization Account: Provides grants for polluted site cleanup, * The Livable Communities Demonstration Account: Designed to fund a variety of community developments products through loans or grants, * The Local Housing Incentives Account: Provides grants to help cities work towards affordable and lifestyle housing goals through a voluntary program, CITY OF ANDOVER REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION DATE January 2, 1996 AGENDA t-O.

After 32 hours, all attempts to conduct the test shall cease and the reasons shall be documented. An employee subject to post-accident testing must remain available or the employee shall be considered to have refused to submit to testing, The employee is prohibited from using alcohol for 8 hours following the accident or until the employee has undergone a post-accident alcohol test, whichever comes first, "- ) RETURN- TO-DUTY TESTING, An employee found to have violated this policy shall not return to work until after undergoing retum-to-duty tests indicating an alcohol concentration ofless than 0,02 and a verified negative result for controlled substances. FOLLOW-UP TESTING, Following a determination by a SAP that an employee is in need of assistance in resolving problems ",ith alcohol abuse and/or controlled substances use, an employee shall be subject to unannounced follow-up alcohol and/or controlled substances testing as directed by the SAP. Follow-up testing shall not exceed 60 months from the date of the employee's return to duty, RANDOM TESTING. The Employer will randomly select employees subject to this policy for unannounced alcohol and controlled substances testing using a computer based random number generator that is matched with and employee's identifying number, Alcohol testing shall be performedjust before, during or after an employee's performance of safety-sensitive duties, Employees selected for testing must proceed immediately to the testing site; provided, however, that if an employee is performing a safety- sensitive function at the time of notification, the employee shall cease performing the safety-sensitive function and proceed to the testing site as soon as possible, FWHA rules require the Employer to conduct random controlled substances testing on 50"10 of the average number of employees and random alcohol testing on 25% of the average number of employees, Employees may be selected for more than one test per year, Tests shall be spread reasonably throughout the year. ", I I DRUG AND ALCOHOL TESTING Controlled substances testing is conducted by analyzing an employee.s urine specimen, Split urine samples will be collected according to FHW A regulations, The employee will provide a urine sample at a designated collection site. The collection site person shall pour the urine specimen into two bottles labeled "primary" and "split", seal the specimens, complete a chain of custody document and prepare the bottles for shipment to the testing laboratory for analysis, If the employee is unable to prO'.ide the appropriate quantity of urine, the collection site person shall instruct the employee to drink not more than 24 ounces of fluids and, after a period of no more than two hours, again attempt to provide a complete sample, If the employee is still unable to prmdde a complete sample, the testing shall be discontinued and the Employer may elect to not have the referral made and revoke the employment offer, Drug test results are reported directly to the MRO by the testing laboratory. The MRO reports the results to the Employer designated contact person. If the results are negative, the Employer is informed and no further action is necessary. If the test result is confirmed positive test is the result of the employee having taken legally prescribed medication. The MRO shall notify each employee that the employee has 72 hours in which to request a test of the split specimen at the employee's expense. The MRO will contact the employee directly, on a confidential basis, to determine whether the person wishes to discuss the positive test result. The MRO will review the confirmed positive test result to determine whether there is an acceptable medical reason for the positive result. The MRO shall verify and report a positive test result to the Employer when there is no legitimate medical reason for a positive test result as received from the testing laboratory. , '\ J If after making reasonable efforts and documenting these effoits, the MRO is unable to reach the employee directly, the MRO must contact the designated Employer contact person, who shall direct the employee to contact the MRO, If the Employer contact person is unable to contact the employee, the employee will be placed on suspension, .

Two breath tests are required to determine if a person has a prohibited alcohol concentration, Any result less than 0,02 alcohol concentration is considered a "negative" test. If the alcohol concentration is 0,02 or greater, a second confirmation test must be conducted. If an employee attempts and fails to provide an adequate amount of breath, the Employer will direct the employee to obtain written evaluation from a licensed physician to determine if the employee' s inability to provide a specimen is genuine or constitutes a refusal to test. Alcohol test results are reported directly to the designated Employer contact person, LICENSES TESTING LABORATORY The testing Laboratory shall be Medtox Laboratories, Inc" 402 West County Road D" St. Paul, Minnesota 55112, 800-832-3244, 612-636-7466, which is a lab certified to perform controlled substance testing according to DHHS regulations, ) PROHffiITED DRUG AND ALCOHOL RELATED CONDUCT The following alcohol and controlled substance-related activities are prohibited by the FWHA's drug and alcohol rules for drivers of CMV' s: .

Moreover, non-drug related problems may be compounded by drug use, Thus, it is critical that drivers and supervisors be trained to recognize the various signs and symptoms as well as their limitations as indicators of drug use. ,~ '1 .' Generallndicatol'll The following are general indicators of substance abuse: Absenteeism: Tardiness or excessive use of sick leave may be observed. Dirge and alcohol affected employees are absent an average of two or three times more than the non-drug using employee, Staff Turnover: Chemically dependent people have disorganized lives, Many quit rather than face detection, Others transfer or are fired for poor and unsafe performance. Lower Producfuity: Studies have shown drug and alcohol affected employees perform at about two-thirds of their actual work potential. Thus, any change in productivity not attn'butable to other factors may be suspect, Equipment breakdo"n: Substance-abusing employees often do not adequately maintain their vehicles, because they either lose interest in their jobs, or look forward to ha"ing their equipment declared out of service as a means of avoiding work. Poor work quality: Shoddy work, rework, and material waste may be evident. In drivers, decreased mental and physical agility and concentration caused by substance abuse could result in greater numbers ofFMCSRs violations, general traffic violations, increased cargo damage or passenger complaints, missed schedules, incomplete or lost shipments, and more traffic accidents (both non-reportable and reportable), ) Increased accidents and near misses: Impaired employees are 3,6 times more likely to be involved in an accident, Even small quantities of drugs in the system, as well as the hangover effect, can cause a deterioration of alertness, clear-mindedness, and reaction time, Theft of equipment and materials: Drugs are expensive, Cocaine costs up to $ 135 a gram. One ounce of high potency marijuana costs $85 to $125, Coinciding with the drug abusers' need for money is the distortion of their value systems and judgment caused by the drug, These changes erode their loyalty and dedication to their employers, Observing these indicators may be complicated because drug and alcohol-abusing employees often develop survival skills to make recognition more difficult. Initially, these performance indicators are best addressed through the routine performance monitoring and correction processes, Typically; a supervisor may confront an employee regarding job performance. This confrontation is based on objective, documented information related to performance deterioration, not the specific signs of substance abuse. Specific (physical) Evidence of Use Signs and symptoms pointing directly to serious substance abuse include the following: Paraphernalia: Needles, balloons, aluminum foil wrappers, cocaine sniffing tools, marijuana smoking pipes and holders, and drug containers obviously not used for legitimate purposes. Presence of drugs: Plastic sandwich bags of marijuana, small containers of tablets or capsules, vials or envelopes of powder, or empty beer, wine and liquor bottles, . " General Physical and Mental Effects of Drug Use The physical and mental effects of substance abuse occur not only during intoxication (from under I hour to 24 hours after intake), but also show up in residual hangovers, fatigue rebounds, and mental impairment, Other physical and mental effects may include: } . Slow reactions . Poor Memory . Poor coordination . Loss of concentration . Fatigue . Depression or anxiety . Delayed decision making . Difficulty in sorting out priority tasks . Erratic judgment quality from non-essential activity . Confusion . Neurotic or psychotic behavior . Learning difficulty . Refusal to accept authority Behalioral Signs of Substance Abuse General performance or behavior problems with an employee may indicate the involvement of drug or alcohol use, Examples of such behavior include: . A sudden change, usually for the worse, in attitude, work performance or behavior . A "lackadaisical" or "I don't care" attitude (often an indication of marijuana use) . Deteriorating or erratic performance . Hangover symptoms . Drug culture jargon \ · Secretive behavior (e,g" inappropriate whispering, wearing sunglasses indoors) . Wanting to be alone, avoiding "straight" (non-substance abusing) workers · Forgetfulness, indecision, and erratic judgment . Impulsive and temperamental behavior · Changes in personal appearance and hygiene . Jitters, hand tremors, hyperexcitability . Carelessness '\ . Sleeping on the job Each symptom, by itself, may point to problems other than drug abuse. But, when a pattern begins to develop, the supervisor or manager needs to be alert and act quickly, When fueled by drug or alcohol abuse, these behaviors can lead to greater absenteeism, higher operating costs, serious production problems, and a definite increase in accidents and health care costs, Physical S,rmptoms of Substance Abuse Observable physical signs and symptoms usually are not apparent until the employee's abuse of drugs or alcohol has reached an advanced level. At advanced stages of drug use, the employee is less able to disguise the physiCal indicators, and often becomes careless because of a clouded mental state, Specific signs include: · Blood spots on shirt sleeves (indicating intravenous needle use) ': · Bloodshot or watery eyes (usually caused by marijuana use) · Changes in speech (e,g" slowed, slurred or incoherent) . Hand tremors · Intoxicated behavior (e,g" swaying, staggering) . Odor of alcohol on breath . Odor of marijuana smoke · Actual on-the-job, out-in-the-open drug use . Poor coordination · Racing heart, irregular rh}1hms (cocaine and amphetamines often cause the heart to react unpredictably) · Runny nose or sores around nostrils (caused by chronic snorting of cocaine) · Slow reactions . Unsteady gait · Very large or small pupils (narcotics and depressants "ill cause the pupils to constrict; cocaine and amphetamines will cause the pupils to dilate) , , Common Job Sites where Drugs Are Used ) Drug users tend to frequent certain job sites which either allow for the privacy necessary to prevent detection or the anonymity which may be provided by the cover of a crowded area. Some common areas include: . Lunchroom and lounge areas . Parking lots, cars and other vehicles . Remote areas of the worksite · Equipment or storage rooms · Restrooms CharacteristU:s of the Five ControUed Substances Marijuana (Cannabinoid) Description Generic/Chemical Names: Dronabinal, Marinol, Nabilone Common Street Names: Pot, dope, grass, hemp, weed, hooch, herb, hash, joint, Acapulco Gold, reefer, Sinsemilla, Thai Sticks Association of Minnesota Counties Minnesota Counties Insurance Trust / Distinguishing Characteristic: Like tobacco, marijuana consists of dried, chopped leaves that are green to light tan in color, The seeds are oval "ith one slightly pointed end Marijuana has a distinctly pungent aroma resembling a combination of sweet alfalfa and incense, Less prevalent, hashish is a compressed, sometimes tar-like substance ranging in color from pale yellow to black, It is usually sold in small chunks wrapped in aluminum foil. Paraphernalia: Cigarette papers, roach clip holders, and small pipes made of bone, brass, or glass are commonly found Smoking "bongs" (large-bore pipes for inhaling large volumes of smoke) can easily be made from soft drink cans and toilet paper rolls, Method of Intake: Marijuana is usuaIly inhaled in cigarette or pipe smoke, Occasionally, it is added to baking ingredients (e,g" brownies) and ingested. Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the active chemical detected in urinalysis, is released by exposure to heat. Duration of Single Dose Effect: The most obvious effects are felt for 4 to 6 hours, Preliminary studies suggest that performance impairment lasts longer, The active chemical, THC, stores in body fat and is slowly metabolized over time, Detection Time: Traces of marijuana will remain in the urine of an occasional user for up to one week, and, in the case of a chronic user, for 3 to 4 weeks, Dependency level: E,idence indicates moderate psychological dependence, Signs and Symptoms Evidence of Presence of Marijuana: Plastic bags (commonly used to sell marijuana); smoking papers; . roach clip holder, small pipes of bone, brass, or glass; distinctive odor. Ph)'Sical Symptoms: Reddened eyes (often masked by eye drops); stained fingertips from holding :"joints", particularly for non-smokers; chronic fatigue; irritating cough, chronic sore throat; accelerated heart beat; slowed speech; impaired motor coordination' altered perception; increased appetite, '\ Behavioral Symptoms: Impaired memory, time-space distortions; feeling of euphoria; panic reactions; / paranoia; "I don't care" attitude' false sense of power. Effects of Marijuana Use on the Individual General Health Effects: " , , . Smoking marijuana irritates the lungs. Chronic smoking causes emphysema-like conditions, . One cigarette (joint) of marijuana contains an amount of cancer-causing substance equivalent to that of one half to one pack of tobacco cigarettes, . One joint causes the heart to race and be overworked. People with undiagnosed heart conditions are at risk. . Marijuana is commonly contaminated with the fungus Aspergillis, which can cause serious respiratory tract and sinus infections, . Because marijuana smoking lowers the body's immune system response, it raises users' susceptibility to infection, . Chronic marijuana smoking causes changes in brain cells and brain waves, In essence, the brain is less healthy and does not work as efficiently or effectively, Does long-term brain damage occur? More research is required, but the probable answer is yes, . Combining alcohol or other depressant drugs and marijuana can produce a multiplier effect, aggravating the impairing effects of both the depressant and marijuana, Reproductive Health Effects: . The active chemical, THC, and 60 other chemicals in marijuana tend to concentrate in the ovaries and testes, , I . ,/ . Chronic smoking of marijuana in males causes a decrease in the male sex hormone, testosterone, and an increase in the female sex hormone, estrogen. The result is a decrease in sperm count, which can lead to temporary sterility. Occasionally, the onset of female sex characteristics including breast development occurs in heavy users. . Chronic smoking of marijuana in females causes a decrease in fertility and an increase in testosterone. . Pregnant women who are chronic marijuana smokers have a higher than normal incidence of stillborn births, early termination of pregnancies, and infant mortality rate during the first few days oflife. . In test animals, THC causes birth defects, including malformations of the brain, spinal cord, forelimbs, liver, and water on the brain and spine. . Offspring of test animals who were exposed to marijuana have fewer chromosomes than normal, which causes gross birth defects or death of the fetus, Pediatricians and surgeons believe that the use of marijuana by either or both parents, especially during pregnancy, leads to specific birth defects of the infant's feet and hands. . One of the most common effects of prenatal Cannabinoid exposure is underweight newborn babies. . Fetal exposure may decrease ,isual functioning and cause other ophthalmic problems, Effect on Mental Performance: / '. ) Regular use can cause the following effects: . Delayed decision making . Diminished concentration . Impaired short-term memory . Impaired signal detection (ability to detect a brief flash oflight), a risk for users who are operating machinery or vehicles . Impaired tracking (the ability to follow moving objects with the eyes) and visual distance measurements . Erratic cognitive function . Distortions in time estimation . Long-term negative effects on mental function known as "acute brain syndrome~, which is characterized by disorders in memory, cognitive function, sleep patterns, and physical condition Effects on Driver Performance: The mental impairments resulting from the use of marijuana produce reactions that can lead to unsafe and erratic driving behavior. Distortions in visual perceptions, impaired signal detection, and altered reality can make driving a vehicle very dangerous, Overdose Effects: / . Aggressive urges . Amdety . Confusion . Fearfulness . Hallucinations . Heavy sedation . Immobility . Mental Dependency . Panic . Paranoid reaction . . Unpleasant distortions in body image \ ) Withdrawal Syndrome: . Sleep disturbance . Hyperactivity . Decreased appetitee. Irritability . Gastrointestinal distress '\ . Salivation, sweating, and tremors Description Generic/Chemical Names: Cocaine Hydrochloride or Cocaine Base Common Street Names: Coke, crack, snow, blow, flake, "C", toot, rock base, nose candy, snort, white horse Distinguishing Characteristics: Cocaine is an alkaloid (organic base) derived from the coca plant. In its more common for, cocaine hydrochloride or "snorting coke" is a white to creamy granular or lumpy powder fine before use. Cocaine base, rock, or crack is a crystalline rock about the size of a small pebble. Paraphernalia: Cocaine Hydrochloride is snorted into the nose, rubbed on the gums, or injected into the veins. Cocaine Base is heated in a glass pipe and the vapor is inhaled. Duration of Single Dose Effect: I to 2 hours. Detection Time: Up to 2 to 3 days after last use. Dependency Level: Research indicates possible physical dependence. Although there is insufficient evidence for humans, animal studies indicate "reverse tolerance", in which certain behavioral effects become stronger with repeated use of cocaine. Psychological dependence on cocaine is known to be high. Signs and Symptoms Evidence of Presence of Cocaine: Small folded envelopes, plastic bags, or vials used to store cocaine; razor blades; cut-off drinking straws or rolled bills for snorting; small spoons; heating apparatus. Physical Symptoms: Dilated pupils; runny or irritated nose; profuse sweating; dry mouth; tremors; needle tracks; loss of appetite; hyperexcitability; restlessness; high blood pressure; heart palpitations; insomnia; talkativeness; formication (sensation of bugs crawling on skin). Behavioral Symptoms: Increased physical activity; depression; isolation and secretive behavior; unusual defensiveness; frequent absences; wide mood swings; difficulty in concentration; paranoia; hallucinations; confusion; false sense of poser and control. \ Effects of Cocaine Use on the Indhidual Physical Health Effects: . Research suggest that regular cocaine use may upset the chemical balance of the brain. As a result, it may speed up the aging process by causing irreparable damage to critical nerve cells. The onset of nervous system illnesses such as Parkinson's disease could also occur. . Cocaine use causes the heart to beat faster and harder and rapidly increases blood pressure. In addition, cocaine causes spasms of blood vessels in the brain and heart. Both effects lead to ruptured vessels causing strokes and heart attacks. . Strong ps)'chological dependency can occur with one "hit" of crack. Usually, mental dependency occurs within days of using crack, or ",ithin several months of snorting coke. Cocaine causes the strongest mental dependency of any known drug. . Treatment success rates are lower than those of other chemical dependencies. . Cocaine is C)<1remely dangerous when taken with depressant drug. Death due to overdose is rapid The fatal effects of an overdose are not usually reversible by medical intervention. The number of cocaine overdose deaths in the U.S. has tripled in the last four years. , , Effects on Mental Performance: j . Paranoia and hallucinations . Hyperexcitability and overreaction to stimulus . Difficulty in concentration . Wide mood swings . Withdrawal leads to depression and disorientation Effects on driver Performance: Cocaine usually results in an artificial sense of poser and control which leads to a sense of invincibility. Lapses in attention and the ignoring of warning signals brought on by cocaine use greatly increase the potential for accidents. Paranoia, hallucinations and extreme mood swings make for erratic and unpredictable reactions while driving. The high cost of cocaine frequently leads to workplace theft and/or dealing. Forgetfulness, absenteeism, tardiness, and missed assignments can translate into lost business. Overdose Effects: . Agitation . Increase in body temperature . Hallucinations . Convulsions . Death '. Withdrawal Syndrome: . Apathy . Long periods of sleep . Irritability . Depression . Disorientation Opiates Description Generic/Chemical Names: Natural and Natural Derivatives include: opium; morphine; codeine; and heroin (semi-synthetic). S)'llthetics include: meperidine (Demerol); oxymorphone (Numorphan); and oxycodone (percodan). Common Street Names: Horse; "H"; junk; smack; scag; Miss Emma; dope; China White Distinguishing Characteristics: Because of the variety of compounds and forms, opiates are more difficult to clearly describe in terms of form, color, odor and other physical characteristics. Opium and its derivatives can range from dark brown chunks to white crystals or powders. Depending on the method of / intake, they may be in powder, pill or liquid form. Paraphernalia: Needles; syringe caps; eyedroppers; bent spoons; bottle caps; and rubber tubing (used in the preparation for and injection of the drug). Method of Intake: Opiates may be taken in pill form, smoked or injected, depending upon the type of narcotic used. \ Duration of Single Dose Effect: 3 to 6 hours. Detection Time: Usually, up to 2 days. Dependency Level: Both physical and psychological dependence on opiates are known to be high. Dependence on codeine is moderate. Signs and Symptoms Evidence of Presence of Drugs: In addition to the paraphernalia enumerated above, the following items may be present: foil, glassine envelopes, or paper "bindles" (packets for holding drugs); balloons or prophylactics used to hold heroin; bloody tissues used to wipe the tissue site; and a pile ofbumed matches used to heat the drug prior to injection. Physical Symptoms: Constricted pupils; sweating; nausea and vomiting; diarrhea; needle marks or "tracks", wearing long sleeves to cover "tracks"; loss of appetite; slurred speech; slowed reflexes; depressed breathing and heartbeat; and drowsiness and fatigue. Behavioral Symptoms: Mood swings, impaired coordination; depression and apathy; stupor; and euphoria. Effects of Opiate Use on the Individual Physical Health Effects: . Intravenous (IV) needle users have a high risk for contracting hepatitis and AIDS due to sharing of needles. . Because opiates increase tolerance to pain, individuals may underestimate the extent of injuries, leading to failure to seek medical attention after an accident. . Because the effects of opiates are multiplied when used in combination with other depressant drugs and alcohol, overdoses are more likely. \ ./ EffectsonMental~rformance: . Depression and apathy . Wide mood swings . Slowed movement and reflexes In addition, the high phySical and psychological dependence level of opiates compounds the impaired functioning. Effects on Driver ~rformance: The apathy caused by opiates can translate into an "I don't really care" attitude toward performance. The pbysical effects as well as the depression, fatigue, and slowed reflexes impede the reaction time of the drive, raising the potential for accidents. Although opiates have a legitimate medical use in alleviating pain, workplace use may cause impairment of physical and mental functions. / , Overdose Effects ) . Slow and shallow breathing . Clammy skin . Convulsions . Coma . Possible death . . Withdrawal Syndrome: . Watery eyes . Runny nose . Ya",'lling . Loss of appetite . Irritability . Tremors . Panic . Cramps . Nausea .

Physical Symptoms: Dilated pupils; sweating; increased blood pressure; palpitations; rapid heartbeat; dizziness; decreased appetite; dry mouth; headaches; blurred vision; insomnia; high fever (depending upon the level of the dose). Behavioral Symptoms: Confusion; panic; talkativeness; hallucinations; restlessness; anxiety; moodiness; false sense of confidence and power; "amphetamine psychosis" which might result from extended use (see health effects). / '\ Effects of Amphetamine Use on the Individual Physical Health Effects: . Regular use produces strong psychological dependence and increasing toleranCe to the drug. . High doses may cause toxic psychosis resembling schizophrenia. The users may see, hear, and feel things that do not exist (hallucinations), have irrational thoughts or beliefs (delusions), and feel as though people are out to get them (paranoia). . The euphoria increases impulsive and risk taking behavior, such as bizarre and violent acts. . Intoxication may induce a heart attack or stroke due to spiking of blood pressure. . Chronic use may cause heart and brain damage due to severe constriction of capillary blood vessels . Long-term heavy use can lead to malnutrition, skin disorders, ulcers, and various diseases that come from vitamin deficiencies. . Lack of sleep, weight loss, and depression also result from regular use. . Users who inject drugs intravenously can get serious and life-threatening infections (e.g., lung or heart disease, kidney damage) from non-sterile equipment or contaminated self- prepared solutions. \ Effects on Mental Performance: . Anxiety, restlessness . Moodiness . False sense of power Large doses over long periods of time can result in: . Hallucinations . Delusions . Paranoia . Brain damage Effects on Driver Performance: Amphetamines cause a false sense of alertness and potential hallucinations, which can result in risky driving beha"ior and increased accidents. Drivers who fail to get sufficient rest may use the drug to increase alertness. However, although low doses of amphetamines will cause a short-term improvement in mental and physical functioning, greater use impairs functioning. The hangover effect of / '\ , I ) amphetamines is characterized by physical fatigue and depression, which make operation of equipment or vehicles dangerous. Overdose Effects: . Agitation . Increase in body temperature . Hallucinations . Convulsions . Death Withdrawal Syndrome: . Apathy . Long-term periods of sleep . Irritability . Depression .

It can last up to three days and can include combativeness, catatonia, convulsions, and COma. Distortions of size, shape, and distance perceptions are common. The second phase, which does not always follow the first, is a toxic psychosis. Users may experience visual and auditory delusions, paranoia and agitation. The third phase is a drug- induced schizophrenia that may last a month or longer. The fourth phase is PCP induced depression. Suicidal tendencies and mental dysfunction can last for months. Physical Health Effects: . Potential for overdose emergencies and other accidents is high due to the combination of the extreme mental effects and the anesthetic effect on the body. . Because the effects of PCP are aggravated by other depressant drugs such as alcohol, the likelihood of an overdose reaction is high. . PCP-induced hallucinations may be misdiagnosed as LSD induced The standard treatment for LSD-induced hallucinations is Thorazine, which when administered with PCP can be fatal. Effects on Mental Performance: . Irreversible Memory loss . Personality changes . Thought disorders . Hallucinations 'I Effects on Driver Performance: The distortions in perception, and potential visual and auditory delusions make driver performance unpredictable and dangerous. PCP use can cause drowsiness, convulsions, paranoia, agitation, or coma, all obviously dangerous to driving. Overdose Effects: . Longer, more intense "trip" episodes . Psychosis . Coma . Possible death Withdrawal S}'lldrome: . None reported. / '\ , , CITY OF ANDOVER REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION j DATE December 19, 1995 EDA Meeting ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT Finance ~<v~ Jean D.

The City Council is requested to approve and direct City staff to hire a summer tree inspection intern to assist in enforcing the City's Tree Protection Policy. , i / Currently the tree policy is enforced by the City's Public Works Department which provides the personnel and time necessary to inspect the tree protection areas within new developments. The tree inspection intern would assist them in their inspections, freeing them up to have more time for their respective departments. The tree inspection intern would be required to have the necessary forestry background and credentials for this position. In addition, the intern would assist in providing inspections relating to erosion control for new development projects along with other projects as assigned. This would be a 6 month position with an hourly rate of $8.00 per hour. The funding for this position would be from the permit fees which are currently being collected by the Building Department specifically for tree protection inspections. / MOTION BY: SECOND BY: CITY OF ANDOVER \ REQUEST FOR COUNCIL ACTION DATE January 2, 1996 AGENDA t\O. SECTION Staff, Committees, Commissions ORIGINATING DEPARTMENT APPROVED FOR AGENDA ITEM t\O. Coon Creek Walkway/Bikeway/ Trail Grant Disc.l95-24 Todd J. Haas, Engineerin~ ~l BYD~Jv /1. , ) The City Council is requested to review the letter received from the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources in regards to the Coon Creek Trail System, Project 95-24. The grant has been approved as 80% (City share) and 20% (MNDNR share). At this point, the total estimated cost is $250,000, so approximately $50,000 could come from the DNR and the remaining $200,000 would need to come from the City. Possible sources to fund this project could come from Park Dedication Funds, PIR, TIF and the 1997 Park Capital General Fund or a combination of the funds. The Park and Recreation Commission did review the item at their December 21, 1995 meeting. The Commission is very supportive in having this trail constructed. It is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan. The trail would interconnect large existing neighborhoods and we will get alot of use out of it. That trail would also connect into the Anoka County/Bunker Hills Park main trail at Bunker Lake Boulevard on the east side of the tracks. \ , , Note: We do remind the City Council that the Mission Statement prepared states that "it shall be a City policy to develop or plan for, pedestrian walkways, trails and right-of-way for alternate transportation in not only new developments but throughout the City." A trail alignment has been adopted and the necessary land has been dedicated east of Hanson Boulevard to Burlington Railroad and then south to Bunker Lake Boulevard and now is the appropriate time to construct the trail. Existing drainage and utility easement (40 feet wide) west of Hanson Boulevard would be utilized for the pathway. Additional rights over this easement for trail purposes may need to be purchased from the adjacent property owners. We recommend that the City Council authorize staff to proceed to enter into a contract with the DNR and authorize the Mayor to sign the appropriate documentation.

Mr. Scott Erickson City Engineer 1685 Crosstown Boulevard NW Andover, MN 55304 December 11, 1995 Re: Bunker Hills Park Bikeway/Walkway Connection: Project # L019-95-6 Dear Mr. Erickson, '\ , / I am writing as a follow up to an October 6, 1995 letter that informed you that your project to your project would provide a trail link between the Bunker Hills Regional Park Complex and local trail systems as far north and west as Andover Boulevard was accepted for reimbursement funding through the Minnesota Cooperative Trail Grants Program. However, before we can proceed to contract you will need to complete some additional paperwork. In addition to ensuring that various environmental criteria are satisfied, the paperwork will assist you as you think through various decisions necessary for a quality facility that will be enjoyed for years to come. The attached Cooperative Trail Grants Program Documentation Checklist indicates what we already have on file and what remains to be completed. I can imagine that this paperwork appears to be a daunting task (and to some extent it is), but if you take it one step at a time you'll get through it faster than you might guess. Remember that the speed in which the contract can be finalized is largely dependant upon your return of the documents. However, take the time necessary to complete them; they are key documents in assuring a successful project. We will probably be able to complete a contract for your project within thirty days of receipt of the successfully completed required documentation. Also, please remember that no receipts for reimbursement will be honored for your project that precede a mutually agreeable signed contractual agreement that specifies the terms and conditions of project reimbursement. In slightly different words, do not spend any money on this project that you expect reimbursement for until you actually have a signed contract in front of you. A final note, as you know, funds for this reimbursement program are the result of a recommendation to the Legislature by the Mir:mesota Legislative Commission on Minnesota Resources which operates on a biennial (two-year) cycle. As such, funds for ) this program must be totally expended by November 1, 1997. It is not enough to have DNR Infonnation: 612-296-6157.1-800-766-6000 .

( , ,,) the money obligated, it is up to you to ensure that your individual project is also completed during this two-year time frame. If you expect that this time limitation will create problems for you, that needs to be brought to our attention Immediately. .

No. 9247 Dear Mr. Haas: This letter serves as verification that the plat of Creekhaven was graded to within reasonable tolerances of the elevations as shown on the Development and Grading Plan with the following exceptions: \ , ) 1. Drainage along the rear lot lines of lots 2-4, block 2, appears to drain to the south and east rather than to the west as shown on the grading plan. 2. Drainage to the street between lots 9 and 10, block 2, is impeded by a utility pedestal. Surface water appears to flow around the pedestal onto the street. The site was surveyed by Egan, Field & Nowak, Inc. this fall (September 1995) and inspected by an engineering field inspector from our office to determine conformance with the Development and Grading Plan. The aforementioned variations do not create problems with the overall drainage scheme and I understand that there has been no reported drainage problems on site despite some very wet summers in recent years. Please contact this office if you have any questions regarding this matter as the developer of record requests release of the bond for this project as soon as possible. c: Herb, R & B Investments LAND DI!VI!LOPMI!NT .

On Wednesday, December 20, 1995 a follow up meeting with the residents of the Woodland Terrace area was held to discuss the results of the traffic study performed in their neighborhood. Seven of the original twelve residents attended the meeting. The general consensus of the group was as follows: ) 1. Permanent speed bumps should not be installed at this time. 2. Only one access from the service road to Bunker Lake Boulevard should be closed off. This is the access across from Marigold Street NW. This would be recommended to be closed both to reduce the potential for through traffic at this location from the north and to improve the safety at this intersection for traffic in and out of the development. 3. It is recommended that the City evaluate the possibility of installing a sidewalk along the service road from approximately Narcissus Street NW to Heather Street N\N. Prior to a formal presentation being made to the City Council, the results of this meeting are being sent to all the members who previously attended and made a recommendation for the traffic study to the City Council. This letter will inform the other members of this recommendation and to provide for their input on the neighborhood's recommendation.

This feasibility study was presented by Scott Erickson, Andover City Engineer, and Tom Madigan and Greg Gappa from MSA, Consulting Engineers. This meeting was held to solicit input from the neighborhood residents about the project. The next step in the process will be a formal public hearing before the Andover City Council. The public hearing notice will be published in the official City newspaper The "Anoka Union". Residents will also be sent a meeting notice. The Mayor and several City Council members were present at this meeting. This project will consist of reconstruction of the street with bituminous pavement and concrete curb and gutter. Storm sewer, watermain, and several sanitary sewer services will be included. The street construction and storm sewer will be fInanced by State Aid funds. The watermain and sanitary sewer will be fInanced using deferred assessments. Services will be stubbed out to the property line. Property owner is responsible for hookup to house. Hookup is not required until the owner is ready. The assessments are listed on the tax roll for each property, These assessments are deferred with no interest until the service is connected. Additional water services will be installed for lots that could be subdivided in the future so some existing lots will be assessed for more than one service. The assessments per service consists of three items. $3,800 $300 Cost of watermain construction, Crooked Lake Boulevard Trunk charge to help pay for cost of the large trunk watermains to bring service to the area. Connection charge. $1,250 The project area is served by a deep sanitary sewer interceptor that was installed in 1975. The homes have sanitary sewer service from this interceptor. Some additional services were stubbed out for future subdivision of lots. As part of this project, the addition of several more sanitary sewer services are proposed for the future subdivision of lots. These will be fmanced by deferred assessment consisting of a lateral, area, and connection charge. 176/006-2110.dec An Equal Opportunity Employer Page I . A summary of resident comments and concerns is included below. The sidewalk along the west side of the street is okay. There are a lot of children that walk along the street to an area school. Most of the residents were not in favor of the bituminous bikeway along the east side of the road. On the northern end of the project, this bike path would terminate at Bunker Lake Boulevard. There was concern about the safety of bikers on heavily traveled Bunker Lake Boulevard. Some residents thought a bike path along Coon Cr~ek would be better to keep bikers away from the traffic. The residents expressed interest in having a traffic signal at the Bunker Lake Boulevard intersection. This issue needs to be communicated to the Anoka County Highway Department. Discussion of future plans for Bunker Lake Boulevard by Anoka County. There was some uncertainity about the schedule for future improvement of Bunker Lake Boulevard. Further discussions need to be conducted with the Anoka County Highway Department regarding the status of Bunker Lake Boulevard. Raising of grade on Bunker Lake Boulevard would improve downhill approach from Crooked Lake Boulevard onto Bunker Lake Boulevard. There have been traffic accidents caused by cars sliding out into Bunker Lake Boulevard. A suggestion was made to include a traffic island between the left and right turn lanes on Crooked Lake Boulevard. This could provide a barrier to stop cars from sliding out into Bunker Lake Boulevard. During heavy rains, there is currently flooding of the road at the low point south of the 135th Avenue NW intersection. Drainage problems in the southeast comer of the Bunker Lake Boulevard intersection were discussed. The possibility of a pipe over to Coon Creek was suggested. The water currently ponds in a low area before reaching the creek. Access during construction was discussed. The streets to the east of Crooked Lake Boulevard and 135th Circle on the west only have access out via Crooked Lake Boulevard. Access issues need to be addressed in specifications. Discussion on grade changes: Intent is to have grade remain close to existing to prevent problems with driveways. Possibility of improving sight distance on hill on northern end of project will be investigated during the design phase, Two options were presented, a 38'-side street with parking on both sides or a 32'-wide street with no parking allowed on the street. The majority of the residents did not need or want on-street parking. Concern was expressed about the safety of on-street parking. Some residents thought a narrower street may reduce traffic speeds; the existing wide street seems to encourage higher speeds. 176/006-2110.dec Page 2 , The construction of watermain seemed acceptable to residents. There was some concern about services stubbed out for future subdivision of lots that may not be buildable. Concern was expressed about bad wells in the area and the need for future water service. The residents would like to have the existing utilities installed underground as part of the project. This issue needs to be discussed with the utility companies.

Side street access is controlled by stop signs. The northern end of the street is a T-intersection with Bunker Lake Boulevard. A stop sign is located on the Crooked Lake Boulevard leg of the intersection. The existing speed limit is 30 mph. There are seven driveways on the east side of the road and nine driveways on the west side of the road. L.J n L1 .., u --, u B. Existin~ Storm Sewer .., LJ The existing storm sewer is shown on Exhibit 3. The south 1,100 feet of the project is served by an existing 15" concrete pipe storm sewer. This storm sewer was constructed in 1966. This storm sewer drains to the north and ends, at a low point, just south of the 135th Avenue NE intersection. The storm sewer outlets at a low point along the west side of the road and drains into a drainage channel to the west. An existing 30" concrete pipe storm sewer also crosses under Crooked Lake Boulevard at this point, and outlets into the drainage channel. This 30" pipe is part of an old system that was used to divert water from Coon Creek into Crooked Lake via the drainage channel. This drainage channel is located in a 100-foot wide Anoka County ditch easement. According to personnel at the Coon Creek Watershed District, this pipe is closed off and has not been used for many years. n L.J .., u .., LJ n LJ .., ~.J .., U There are four sets of existing catch basins along the street at an approximate spacing of 350 feet. The southernmost set of catch basins is located just south of the 133rd Avenue NW intersection, in the City of Coon Rapids. ,.., u .., w From the high point, located 500 feet south of the Bunker Lake Road intersection, the storm water drains south in the gutters to the existing catch basins at the low point, near the 135th Avenue intersection. There is approximately 1,000 feet of street that drains to these low point catch basins from the north. .., LJ .., The water from the northern 500 feet of the project drains north toward Bunker Lake Boulevard by gutter flow. There is an existing catch basin in the southwest corner of the intersection and an 18" culvert that crosses under Crooked Lake Boulevard to the east. Storm drainage continues east, by overland flow, about 300 feet to Coon Creek. u '-' u n .J .., , u FEAS-176.006 -2- 17MJ06..1O ..., L.J ,.., ....J C. Existin~ Sanitary Sewer ,.., The existing sanitary sewer is shown on Exhibit 6. This area is served by an existing 36" reinforced concrete pipe interceptor sewer that drains to the south. The flow from this sewer is metered at the south City limits. This sanitary sewer ranges in depth from 20 to 30 feet and was constructed in 1975. AIl of the houses along the project have sanitary sewer service into this interceptor sewer. u ~ , ..J -, u D. Existin~ Watermain ., LJ ..., The existing watermain is shown on Exhibit 5. There is no existing watermain along this project. AIl of the homes are served by private weIls. The only existing watermain is a 12" watermain located along the north side of Bunker Lake Boulevard. L.J ., -J PROPOSED IMPROVEMENTS ..., :..J A. Street Improvements ...., LJ Two options were considered for the improvement of Crooked Lake Boulevard. A 32-foot face to face of curb width street, with no parking aIlowed. This 32-foot width would match the width of the existing street in Coon Rapids. ., J ,.., LJ The second option considered was a 38-foot face to face of curb width street, with parking aIlowed on both sides. The existing right-of-way width of 70 to 105 foot would aIlow for either option without acquiring additional right-of-way. The proposed street improvements are shown on Exhibit 1. ,..., u ..., L.l ., The recommended alternative is to construct a 32-foot wide street, with no parking allowed on the street. This 32-foot width will match the width of the Coon Rapids street. This project is only one-half mile in length to the termination of the street at the Bunker Lake Road T-intersection. Changing street width, from a 32 to 38-foot wide street for this distance is not recommended from a traffic engineering perspective. With this option, no parking will be allowed on the street. Based on the density of residential development in this area, on-street parking does not appear to be of major importance. ,.., LJ u ., LJ ., o ., L.J FEAS-176.006 .., -.J- 176-006-10 ..., u " LJ A neighborhood meeting will be held to present this feasibility study to the residents in the area, and the issue of on-street parking will be discussed. Infonnation obtained at this meeting could influence the final decision on the street width and parking needs. ..., L.J ~ . At the Bunker Lake Boulevard intersection, northbound left and right turn lanes will be provided on Crooked Lake Boulevard. The Anoka County Highway Department has long- range plans to reconstruct Bunker Lake Boulevard to a 4-lane road. Coordination with the Anoka County Highway Department will be required during the plans and specifications phase of the project. LJ ...., u .., LJ .., The street reconstruction will include removal of existing pavement and bituminous curbs. Six-inch barrier concrete curb and gutter will be installed with concrete or bituminous driveway aprons. Disturbed lawn areas will be graded to drain to the street and restored with sod. The proposed typical street sections are shown on Exhibit 2. LJ .., LJ ..., The pavement section for this road is based on a 9-ton design using the flexible pavement design methodology in the MnDOT State Aid Manual. The estimated existing average daily traffic of 1,950 vehicles per day was obtained from the City. The estimated traffic design is for 150 to 300 heavy commercial vehicles per day. The soils in this area are predominately granular in nature. A soil factor of 50 will be used for pavement design. This soil factor was used in the 1966 reconstruction project and appears to be reasonable based on area soil conditions. This will be verified during design, upon obtaining soil boring infonnation. The proposed pavement section is shown on Exhibit 2. LJ ..., u .., d ..., u ..., u Stonn drainage will be conveyed by gutter flow and stonn sewers. Stonn sewer improvements will be discussed in another section of the report. ..., , w .., :..J The existing street section in Coon Rapids has a 5-foot wide concrete sidewalk along the west side of the road. It is proposed that this sidewalk be extended for the entire length of this project. .., LJ An 8-foot wide bituminous bikeway/walkway path along the east side of the road is recommended to be included in this project, as requested by the City Engineering Department. .., u .., :....J ..., LJ FEAS-176.006 -4- 176-006-10 ..., LI ,..., B. Stonn Sewer Improvements u ..., A meeting was held with personnel in the MnDOT State Aid Office to review the stonn sewer design for this project. The drainage area is very flat and the soils are sandy with a very high potential for infiltration of stonn water. These conditions will virtually eliminate any contributing flow from the surrounding area. The storm sewer can be designed to handle the stonn water runoff from the pavement surface and right-of-way. State Aid funding will pay the entire cost of stonn sewer systems that drain the street and right-of-way area. ~ ..., u .., :...J .., ~ .., A change in State Aid stonn sewer design policy is in progress. This change is scheduled for fmal approval in January 1996. According to this revised policy, for streets with a projected traffic count between 2,000 and 6,000 vehicles per day and a speed limit of less than 40 mph, a 3-year design for stonn sewers can be used. L...l .., LJ .., The existing 15" stonn sewer is adequate for a 3-year design stonn, except for the last downstream section of pipe. Based on the anticipated changes to the State Aid policies, the existing 15" stonn sewer can be used for this project. Except, the last downstream section of 15" pipe which will be replaced with an 18" pipe. LJ .., LJ ...., ...., This existing stonn sewer is located along the west gutter line of the existing street. The proposed street will be narrower; therefore, the existing stonn sewer will be located behind the west curb line of the new street. The existing catch basin structures along the stonn sewer will be removed and replaced with manholes. New catch basins will be installed on the reconstructed street and connected to the new manholes installed on the existing stonn sewer. The southerrunost set of existing catch basins, located in the City of Coon Rapids, will be left in place. LJ' L...l ~.., u .., LJ ...., From the north, approximately 1,000 feet of street drains by gutter flow to the low point near the 135th A venue intersection. Installation of new 18" stonn sewer with two sets of catch basins is proposed to reduce the length of gutter flow to approximately 350 feet. ~ ..., , LJ ..., It is proposed to remove the existing 30" reinforced concrete pipe culvert at the low point at 135th Avenue NW. The existing catch basin and 18" culvert at the Bunker Lake Road intersection will be replaced.

This project will result in a reduction in impervious area and involves the modification of an existing storm sewer. Because of the unique nature of this project, the Watershed District did not specify exact requirements for storm water ponding or sedimentation control. They will review the project upon submission of detailed storm sewer design calculations. Watershed District requirements may result in use of a storm water sedimentation pond or grit chamber for this project. For this feasibility study, general design recommendations from the MPCA, Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas Manual was used. Recommended sizing for storm water sedimentation ponds is 67 cubic yards of storage volume per acre of drainage area. This recommendation results in an approximate storm water sedimentation pond size of 1,700 cubic yards. Costs for a sedimentation pond or grit chamber have been included in this study. C. Sanitary Sewer Improvements The project area is served by a deep 36" RCP sanitary sewer interceptor. This sewer was constructed in 1975, and is anticipated to be in good condition. The City is proposing to complete a televised inspection of this sewer to confirm this and address any needed repairs concurrent with this project. The sanitary sewer is shown on Exhibit 6. When the sanitary sewer was constructed, services were installed for lots that could be subdivided in the future. Three additional services will be installed for possible future subdivision of lots. The results of this study are based on no sanitary sewer improvements being required for this project other than adjusting of existing manholes and the installation of three new sanitary sewer services. Any other sanitary sewer improvements will be in addition to the costs listed in this feasibility study. Watermain Improvements There are no existing water services for the residences along this project. These homes are all served by private wells. The proposed scope of this project is to construct new 8" watermain for the entire length of this project. This 8" watermain is in accordance with -6- 176-006-10 ....., LJ ,...., LJ the City's comprehensive water utility plan. The proposed watermain improvements are shown in Exhibit 5. ....., 'J The proposed watermain will connect to an existing 12" watermain in Bunker Lake Boulevard. This new watermain will extend to the Coon Rapids City limits on the south end of the project. It is proposed to interconnect this watermain with the City of Coon Rapids' water system, with a valve between the two systems. This will need to be discussed with and approved by the City of Coon Rapids. ..., LJ ,...., LJ ....., :....J Fire hydrants will be installed at an approximate 300 foot spacing along the project. At the side streets, 8" watermain stubs will be installed. This will allow for future watermain connections without disturbing the new construction on Crooked Lake Boulevard. Water services will be provided out to the right-of-way, for all lots along the project. Additional services will be installed for possible future subdivision of lots. This will allow the property owners to connect to the municipal water system in the future. ,...., LJ ....., LJ ..., L.l PERMITS AND EASEMENTS ..., LJ It is not anticipated that additional right-of-way or easements will be required for the street construction, since the street is within existing platted right-of-way. However, temporary construction easements may be required in order to match into existing lawns and driveways. The new watermain and storm sewer can be constructed within the platted right-of-way. The construction of new water services up to the property line will require temporary construction easements for access on private property beyond the right-of-way. This work off of the right-of-way should be minimal. The existing drainage ditch west of the project is located in a lOO-foot wide Anoka County drainage easement. Any required storm water ponding could possibly be located within this drainage easement. ....., LJ ,...., L.l ......, u ..., u ....., The permits required for this project will include a Coon Creek Watershed District permit, and a Minnesota Pollution Control Agency (MPCA) permit for storm sewer construction. A Minnesota Department of Health permit will be required for watermain construction.
