LOCAL BOARD OF APPEAL AND EQUALIZATION
SUMMARY OF DUTIES AND RESPONSIBILITIES
Most of the responsibilities listed under the Local Board of Appeal and Equalization are
statutory, primarily found in Minnesota Statutes 274.01.
• The first responsibility is attendance. The Local Board of Appeal and Equalization is
an official public meeting similar to a City Counci] meeting and cannot convene
without a quorum. In addition to the local assessor, the county assessor, or one of
his/her assistants is required to attend.
• At least one member must be present at each meeting of the Local Board of Appeal
and Equalization (beginning in 2006) that has attended an appeals and equalization
course as developed and approved by the Commissioner of Revenue. The
compliance date is December 1 of the year prior to the current year's meeting.
• The valuation notices shall be in writing and be sent by ordinary mail at least ten
calendar days before the meeting of the board. The valuation notice will include the
dates, places and times set for the meetings of the Local Board of Appeal and
Equalization as well as the Hennepin County Board of Appeal and Equalization.
• The meetings must be held between April 1 and May 31 each year, including
reconvene meetings. The County Assessor shall fiX a day and time when the Local
Board of Appeal and Equalization shall meet. The board must complete its work and
adjourn within 20 days from the time of convening stated in the notice of the clerk,
i.e. calendar days — original night is day one.
• The clerlc shall give published and posted notice of the meeting at least ten days
before the date of the meeting.
Local Boards of Appeal and Equalization must see that all taxable property is
properly valued and classified for the current assessment year only. The board may
consider both real and personal property, and both estimated and taxable value.
Personal property is limited to mobile homes and their storage sheds, decks and other
improvements located in a manufactured home park, structures on leased public lands
and RR operating ROW, and leased buildings located on land owned by the occupant
and used as their homestead.
• If any property has been omitted, the board must correct the assessment by adding it
to the list of assessments along with its market value.
• The board may not increase or decrease by percentage all assessments in a district of
a given class of property. Changes in the aggregate to assessments are by class and
are made by the County Board of Equalization.
• The board may not make an individual market value adjustment or classification
change that would benefit the property in cases where the owner or other person
having control over the property will not permit the assessor to inspect the property
and the interior of any buildings or structures.
Although the Local Board of Appeal and Equalization has the authority to increase or
decrease individual assessments, the total of such adjustment must not reduce the
aggregate assessment by mare than one percent. If the total reductions would lower
the aggregate assessment by more than one percent, none of the adjustments may be
made. The assessar shall correct any clerical errars or double assessments discovered
by the board without regard to the one percent limitation.
• The local board does not have the authority to reopen former assessments on which
taxes are due and payable.
• If an assessment was made after the local board meeting or if a taxpayer can establish
not having received the notice of market value at least five days before the meeting,
they can appeal to the County Board of Appeal and Equalization.
• The board may find instances of undervalued properties. The board must notify the
owner of the property that the value is going to be raised. The property owner must
have the opportunity to appear befare the board if they so wish.
• The local boards do not have the authority to address eXemption issues. Only the
county assessor (and the taX court) has the authority to exempt property. They also
have no jurisdiction over special programs for which an application process is
required (Veterans Market Value Homestead Exclusion, Green Acres, etc.).
• A taxpayer may appear in person, by council, or written communication to present his
or her objection to the board. The focus of the appeal must center on the factors
influencing the estimated market value or classification placed on the property.
• All changes will be entered into the assessment record by the county assessor's office.
• Before adjourning, the local board should prepare an official list of the changes. The
law requires that the changes be listed on a separate form. All assessments that have
been increased or decreased should be shown as prescribed on the form along with
their market values. The record must be signed and dated by the members of the
Local Board of Appeal and Equalization.
• The Hennepin County Board of Appeal and Equalization begins meeting on:
June 15, 2015
Al] appointments must be scheduled no later than Wednesday, May 20, 2015, by
calling the Hennepin County Taxpayer Services Office at:

SUBJECT: Funding Food Shelves Serving Crystal Residents
BACKGROUND:
Several years ago, the Council adopted Resolution #2008-56, establishing a policy for the
use of charitable gambling proceeds. The policy outlines the type of services or
organizations that may receive funds from charitable gambling proceeds and is based on
language in Minnesota Statutes, Section 349.12, Subd. 25. This allowed the Council to
provide funds to local food shelves serving Crystal residents, NEAR and PRISM.
Donations made in March to area food shelves will be matched by a grant.
Attached is the December 31, 2014, statement of the status of the City Initiatives Fund, the
fund where charitable gambling proceeds are accounted. There are sufficient funds in the
charitable gambling proceeds to contribute $750 each to NEAR and PRISM.
Cal and Jan Monroe of the NEAR Food Shelf and Michelle Ness of PRISM will be at the
March 17 meeting to provide brief information on the services provided to Crystal
residents.
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve contributions of $750 each to the NEAR and PRISM food shelves, using
charitable gambling proceeds.

CRYSTAL
FROM: Wayne Houle, Interim City Engineer
TO:
DATE:
RE:
Anne Norris, City Manager (for March 17 City Council Meeting)
March 12, 2015
Consider Phase 14 Bids and Assessment Hearing Resolutions
Project # 2014-14
INTRODUCTION
Bids for the above project were opened on Thursday, March 12, 2015, and have been
tabulated and checked for accuracy. The Council is being asked to consider the
apparent qualified low bid and the proposed assessment rates, and also to set the date
for the special assessment public hearing.
DISCUSSION
The City has again been able to take advantage of being part of the bidding process
early in the season when contractors are trying to fill their work schedule for the season.
A total of four bids were received in a competitive bidding climate as shown below:
Palda & Sons, Inc.
Valley Paving, Inc.
Park Construction Co.
Northwest, Inc.
$5,748,093.00
$5,922,621.23
$6,231,251.27
$6,425,684.06
Palda & Sons, Inc. has perFormed a satisfactory job on several of the City's previous
street reconstruction projects, most recently the Phase 13 Becker Park Project in 2013,
and meets the qualification requirements per the bid documents.
The September 2014 Feasibility Report (Report) construction cost estimate was
$4,784,867. The following calculation allows for an apples to apples construction cost
comparison of Palda's bid to the feasibility study number:
Palda's Bid
Less Private Driveway/Sewer Work
Less Utility Work
Subtotal (Post Bid Const. Est.)
Feasibility Const. Cost Est.
Difference Feasibility / Post Bid
$5,748,093
- 540,226
- 82,528
$5,125,340
$ 4,784,867
$ 340,473
7.6
Based on these numbers, the projected project construction cost is $340,473 higher
than the Report cost. The majority of the increased cost was due to two significant
changes following completion of the Report. The first was to reconstruct all of the
existing B618 concrete curb and gutter in the project area with the exception of the
streets shared with other communities. This change was identified following the
finalization of the topographic survey showing the existing street elevations not meeting
minimum grade requirements during the final design phase. Additionally, several
significant storm sewer systems scheduled to remain in service now need
reconstruction due to their poor condition.
The Report recommended increasing the 2013 assessment rate by 10.3% to $5,828 per
single family parcel. The Report also showed the Street Reconstruction Fund (Fund)
having to contribute $591,578 to the Phase 14 project, based on the following funding
source factors:
• 10.3% Assessment rate increase to $5,828 per single family parcel,
• 22% Legal, Administrative and Engineering costs, and
• $450,000 Storm Drain Utility contribution.
Using the results of the low bid, a comparable Fund contribution amount of $547,336 is
based on the following funding source factors:
• 10.3% Assessment rate increase to $5,828 per sinlge family parcel,
• 20% Legal, Administrative and Engineering costs, and
• $600,000 Storm Drain Utility contribution.
An increase in assessment rates keeps the Fund from falling behind, so that the final
two phases, 15 and 16, can be completed within budget.
Recommendation
The purpose of this memorandum is to update the Council on the Phase 14 bid results,
discuss and provide options for project special assessment rates, and adopt the two
attached resolutions in order to keep the project moving forward.
Bid prices came within the final design phase cost estimate of $5,996,006. However the
bids are $340,473 more than what was stated in the Report as described above.
It is recommended the Council establish the increased assessment rates for the project
and adopt attached resolution Declaring the Cost to be Assessed, and Ordering the
Preparation of the Proposed Assessment Roll.
It is also recommended that the Council adopt the second resolution Ordering the
Hearing On the Proposed Assessment for Tuesday, April 21, 2015 at 7:00 p.m. at City
Hall.

COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
"TY�f proposed Hearinq on Allev Proiect
CRYSTAL
FROM: Wayne Houle, Interim City Engineer
TO: Anne Norris, City Manager (for March 17 City Council Meeting)
DATE: March 12, 2015
RE: Accept Feasibility Report and Order Public Hearing for 2015 Alley
Construction, Project #2015-07
INTRODUCTION AND BACKGROUND
The feasibility report for the 2015 Alley Reconstruction Project has been completed.
The location map is attached. This year's project includes the alleys located between
and parallel to Welcome, Xenia, Yates and Zane Avenues and between 47th and 48th
Avenues, all in the Welcome Park Neighborhood.
It is proposed to construct twelve foot wide concrete alleys in the same fashion as was
done in the previous eight 2007 - 2014 projects.
DISCUSSION
A neighborhood meeting was held Thursday, February 26 at City Hall. Fifty-eight
notices were mailed to the affected properties. Seven parcels were represented at the
meeting. The questions and comments of the residents were all positive and
constructive. No one voiced opposition to the project.
If the Council adopts the attached resolution accepting the feasibility study and ordering
the public improvement hearing, the project hearing to order the project would be held
at the May, 5 Council meeting.
The total estimated cost of the project is $171,396. The intent is to use Chapter 429 of
the State Statutes to special assess a portion of the project cost to the benefiting
property owners. As done with the previous projects, the cost would be paid by a 60%
assessment to the benefitting property owners and a 40% contribution from the Storm
Drain Utility Fund.
7.7
Unlike the street projects, the public hearing on the assessments will be conducted this
fall once the project is complete. The main reason for this is the construction cost is
very small so it will not be necessary to bond to cover the project costs. The proposed
schedule allows enough time to hold the final special assessment hearing and certify to
the county for the 2016 tax rolls.
DRIVEWAY and SANITARY SEWER SERVICE REPAIR
As with the previous alley and street projects, the property owner will be able to
participate in a driveway reconstruction and or sanitary sewer service repair program,
provided that the sewer connection to the main is located under the alley being
constructed. The additional costs can be special assessed along with the alley cost.
FINANCIAL IMPACT
The project cost will be paid by a 60% special assessment to the benefiting property
owners and a 40% contribution from the Storm Drain Utility Fund. The estimated unit
assessment is $1,745 per single/duplex residence and $28.40 per front foot for
commercial/non profit parcels to be assessed over a ten year period. There is no
impact on the General Fund.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt the attached resolution accepting the
feasibility study and ordering the public improvement hearing for the 2015 Alley
Construction Project #2015-07.
Respectfully submitted,
Wayne Houle

FEASIBILITY REPORT FOR
2015 ALLEY CONSTRUCTION PROJECT
PROJECT 2015-07
MARCH 12, 2015
The alleys located parallel to and between Welcome, Xenia, Yates and Zane Avenues and
between 47th and 48th Avenues, all in the Welcome Park Neighborhood, currently have
deteriorating bituminous surfacing. This project will be the ninth since the City's alley
reconstruction program was adopted in 2006. Previous alley projects reconstructed and
upgraded five sand and gravel alleys and seven deteriorated bituminous alleys in the Welcome
Park Neighborhood (Phase 10), three deteriorated bituminous alleys in the Forest North
Neighborhood (Phase 12), and seven deteriorated bituminous alleys in the Lee Park
Neighborhood (Phase 5) to concrete surfacing.
The existing bituminous surfaces, that were placed in the early 1970's, have deteriorated to a
point beyond their usefullife. This is due to age, soil conditions, poor drainage, and heavy
loading caused by garbage trucks and other large vehicles. The uneven surfaces cause
birdbaths to form that freeze, creating icy conditions in the winter. The alleys are a continual
maintenance problem requiring regular attention from the Street Maintenance Department.
The local drainage is fair to poor, and abutting property owners have little incentive to update
and pave their driveways.
In order to provide a durable year round surface, in 2006 the City established an Alley
Reconstruction Program. The program anticipates rebuilding all the alleys in the City over a
ten year period. The proposed "V" concrete pavement section will provide a long and
maintenance free life, and act as a stormwater drainage conduit to the adjoining street
intersections or to new or existing storm sewer. The adopted policy is to special assess 60%
of the project cost, with the remaining 40% to be paid by the Storm Drain Utility Fund. The
proposed project is consistent with the adopted policy and program. The project area is shown
on the attached map. The estimated cost is $ 173,895.75
Since 1995, the City of Crystal has determined benefit to single family lots for local street
reconstruction on a unit basis instead of by the front foot of each abutting property. The
established policy for alley construction will use the same per lot (unit) basis for the 54
benefiting Single Family/Duplex properties and a per front foot assessment for the 4
Commercial/Non Profit benefiting properties. In addition, using the same street
reconstruction model, all abutting parcels will be assessed without consideration as to where
the driveway access is from, be it the street or the alley. All properties are considered to have
benefit from the improved alley, even if their driveway access is from the local street.
By assessing only 60% of the total cost on a per lot basis, the study cost and benefit analysis
shows an estimated assessment cost of $1744.77 for each of the 54 single Family/Duplex
parcels and a$28.40 per front foot assessment rate for the 4 Commercial/Non Profit parcels.
Based on this cost, it is determined that the project is both feasible and provides appropriate
benefit to the assessed properties. Assessments far alley construction are levied over a ten
year term at 4.5% interest rate.
7.7
No change in the policy is recommended for 2015. The assessment for each unit is calculated
by dividing the total project cost (less commercial property assessments) by the number of
units. The assessment for each commercial/Non Profit property is calculated by multiplying
the parcels front footage by the cost per alley foot of $28.40. Using the above-noted
assessment approach and the proposed concrete construction detail, the project cost
breakdown is on the following page.

DATE: March 11, 2015
MEMO TO: Anne Norris, City Manager
Mayor and City Council
FROM: Gene Hackett, Recreation Director ��f
SUBJECT: Consider a Resolution to Purchase Bassett Creek Playground Amenities
and Installation of the playground project.
Background:
The Bassett Creek playground is scheduled for replacement in 2015. It is 23 years
old and replacement has been deferred for 3 years. The playground is heavily used
not only by the neighborhood but also by a variety of groups that use the park for
various functions. The playground features a main structure as well as additional
equipment so that children ages 2- 12 have a variety of play experiences. The
design is ADA accessible and provides play opportunities for all abilities.
In fall of 2014, the Recreation Department applied for and received a Hennepin
Youth Sports Grant for the playground project. This grant reimburses the city in the
amount of $63,000 after the project is completed. In addition, the city received a
grant from GameTimeo playground equipment manufacturer, to purchase the main
playground feature at 50% of cost. That equipment was purchased last year.
In order to complete the rest of the project, there are several playground
amenities/additional playground equipment to be purchased and the entire project
needs to be installed.
These amenities/additional playground equipment include:
Merry Go All
Rockscape Arch
Sky Runner
Spring Toys
Sky Run Zipline
Accessibility ramp/transfer points
Total cost: $36,970.50
GameTimeo will install the main structure, amenities and provide initial safety testing.

CRY$TAL
Replacement
FROM: Brad Fortin, Parks & Facilities Superintendent
DEPARTMENT HEAD REVIEW: Wayne Houle, Interim City Engineer
TO: Anne Norris, City Manager
DATE: March 12, 2015 (For March 17 Council Meeting)
SUBJECT: BECKER PARK TENNIS COURT AND BASKETBALL COURT FENCE
REPLACEMENT
I am requesting funds from the 2015 PIR fund # 5019, with a budgeted amount of
$75,000. The existing fence has deterioriated over the years and detracts from the
overall aesthetics of the park. The original fencing was installed in 1985 with a vinyl
coating on it. After 30 years the vinyl coating has mostly flaked off the fence fabric,
posts and gates. The fence shows considerable wear from years of use.
A new bottom rail will be installed with the new fence to prevent curling of the mesh. All
of the three inch posts will be left in place and sleeved to reduce cost and minimilize
damage to the playing surface. The new fencing will be installed with a galvanized
coating.
Two fencing vendors submitted quotes for this project. All proposals were based on the
same specifications.
1) Town and Country Fence: $30,500.00
2) Peterson Companies: $33,250.00
The PIR budgeted amount is $75,000.00 Which will leave us funds for much needed
improvements in Becker Park, such as court resurfacing and building maintenance.

_.. ; New home proposal from Novak-Fleck
FROM: John Sutter, Acting Community Development Director c�
DATE: March 12, 2015
TO: Anne Norris, Executive Director (for March 17 EDA meeting)
SUBJECT: Consider tentative acceptance of a proposal from Novak-Fleck for the lot at
6526 45t" Avenue North
Novak-Fleck has submitted a proposal to purchase the lot at 6526 45�h Avenue North for
$60,000. Attached are a 2012 aerial photo, builder's proposal form, and preliminary site and
house plans for a possible custom-built rambler or split entry spec home.
The builder is working with a specific buyer on the rambler plan. It would have 1,180 sq. ft. on
the upper level, with an open living-dining-kitchen area, three bedrooms and two bathrooms.
would also have 1,156 unfinished sq. ft. on the lower level, which could be finished in the
future with one or two bedrooms, a bathroom, laundry room and very large family room.
If the rambler falls through, then as a backup plan Novak-Fleck proposes a split entry with an
attached three car garage. It would have 1,237 sq. ft. on the upper level, with an open living-
dining-kitchen area, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Itwould also have 1,144 unfinished
sq. ft. on the lower level, which could be finished in the future with two bedrooms, a bathroom,
laundry room and very large family room. The house would be similar to houses completed
and sold at 3556 Welcome, 5332 50th, 4720 Douglas Dr and 5824 Regent, and also under
construction at 5700 Regent.
For 6526 45�h, if the EDA tentatively accepts the proposal on March 17, then the required
public hearing would occur on April 7 and the EDA would consider a resolution approving the
lot sale. Closing and construction start are anticipated by mid-April with completion in summer
2015.
REQUESTED EDA ACTION: EDA approval of a motion tentatively accepting the proposal
from Novak-Fleck for the EDA lot at 6526 45�h Avenue North.

an Agreement is signed would a binding contract exist belween the EDA and the Builder.
Builders may purchase a 6-month option on a lot for $500, renewable for an additional 6 months for an additional $500.
The option provides the builder with exclusive rights to purchase the lot and build a house subject to the normal EDA
process, requirements and guidelines. As a condition of the option, the builder must list the lot with a to-be-built house on
the MLS for the duration of the option. The number of options is limited: No builder may have options on more than 10%
of the EDA's lots, and no more than 50% of the EDA's lots may be under option at any time.

New home proposal from Tollberg
FROM: John Sutter, Acting Community Development Director �"
DATE
TO:
March 12, 2015
Anne Norris, Executive Director (for March 17 EDA meeting)
SUBJECT: Consider tentative acceptance of a proposal from Tollberg Homes for the
lot at 6601 62"d Avenue North
Tollberg Homes has submitted a proposal to purchase the lot at 6601 62"d Avenue North for
$50,000. Toliberg is a state-licensed residential building contractor with no enforcement
actions.
Attached are a 2012 aerial photo, builder's proposal form, and preliminary site and house
plans for a split entry home. The house would have 1,236 sq. ft. on the upper level, with an
open living-dining-kitchen area, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. Itwould also have 1,144
unfinished sq. ft. on the lower level, which could be finished in the future with one or two
bedrooms, a bathroom, laundry room and very large family room. The builder does not yet
have a buyer for the house.
If the EDA tentatively accepts the proposal on March 17, then the required public hearing
would occur on Aprii 7 and the EDA would consider a resolution approving the lot sale. Closing
would occur no later than June 5, with construction start anticipated in summer 2015 and
completion in the fall.
REQUESTED EDA ACTION: EDA approval of a motion tentatively accepting the proposal
from Tollberg Homes for the EDA lot at 6601 62nd Avenue North.

RE: Lots in the city of Crystal
DearJohn
Toliberg Homes is an Anoka builder specializing in the construction of single family homes. Tollberg Homes is located at
1428 Sth Avenue, Anoka, MN 55303. Tollberg Homes builds approximately 50 homes each year. We currently have
models and are building in Blaine, Rogers, and Lino Lakes. If you would like to visit our models please refer to the
attachment for addresses and call us for lock box numbers. We have financial strength to purchase lots and close on
them when ready.
It is our intent to acquire the first lot on the $500 option and advertise as a to-be-built until October and then pay for
and take title to the lot and build this fall if not sold before that. We have a full time realtor that sells for Tollberg
exclusively. We anticipate that we will find a buyer before October and build yet this summer. •�
We have worked with Community Directors from other Cities and have always had a great experience. We are an owner
occupied only builder. We thank you for the opportunity and request that if you have any questions, please feel free to
contact the undersigned.
Very truly yours

EDA STAFF REPORT
5715 Regent
Lot option proposal from Tollberg
FROM: John Sutter, Acting Community Development Director �✓��
DATE:
�
March 12, 2015
Anne Norris, Executive Director (for March 17 EDA meeting)
SUBJECT: Consider tentative acceptance of proposal and authorizing an Option
Agreement with Tollberg Homes for the lot at 5715 Regent Avenue North
Tollberg Homes has submitted a proposal to option the lot at 5715 Regent Avenue North. The
option duration would be 6 months for $500 and is renewable for another 6 months for another
$500. The lot price is $50,000. Tollberg is a state-licensed residential building contractor with
no enforcement actions.
Attached are a 2012 aerial photo, builder's proposal form, and preliminary site and house
plans for a split entry home. The house would have 1,236 sq. ft. on the upper level, with an
open living-dining-kitchen area, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. It would also have 1,144
unfinished sq. ft. on the lower level, which could be finished in the future with one or two
bedrooms, a bathroom, laundry room and very large family room. The builder does not yet
have a buyer for the house.
The required public hearing would be scheduled at such time as the builder decides to
exercise the option.
REQUESTED EDA ACTION: EDA tentative approval of the plans and authorization of an
option agreement with Tollberg Homes for the EDA lot at 5715 Regent Avenue North.

POLICE ADMINISTRATION
Ms. Anne No�ris
City Manage� - City of Crystal
4141 Douglas Drive N.
Cxystal, MN 55422
Dear Ms. Norris,
Service to the community is our top priority. The men and
women of the Crystal Police Department deliver that service
through professional policing that reflects our respect for the
citizens we serve. Our successful efforts are dependent upon
strong relationships between our off icers and the people of the
City of Crystal. These community partnerships have long been
the foundation of our policing strategy and I am pleased to
report that our city continues to be a safe place to live, work
and raise a family.
From the Police Chief
Stephanie Revering
The Zoz4 Annual Report reflects on our activities and accomplishments during the past year. It
summarizes the efforts of employees and many volunteers who work tirelessly to maintain the public
safety in the City of Crystal. ��u,ite often this hard work goes unnoticed by the pubic, so please take a
moment to read through the awards and commendations listed in the back of the report. � are very
fortunate and honored to have such exceptional personnel that are willing to risk their lives on a
daily basis.
W�hile I am extremely proud of our dedicated staf� I recognize that it is critical to provide them with
the best tools possible to serve the community. New technologies allow us to be more effective in
combating crime. Some of those help us keep our community engaged through electronic outreach. In
aoz4, with the encouragement and support of our newly elected City Council the Police Department
began expanding our outreach efforts through new social networking technologies. Leveraging these
new technologies to improve our service through greater outreach, public accessibility and reduction
in crime will be a priority for the coming year.
Sincerely,
Stephanie Revering
City of Crystal Police Chief

TRAFFIC U N IT
The Crystal Police Department Traffic Unit is led by the department's 2013 Officer of the Year
Mason Barland. The Department places a strong emphasis on safety violations which include
speed, seat belt, child safety seat violations, distracted driving, traffic light violations, crosswalk
enforcement and commerical motor vehicle operations.
The Crystal Police Department is committed to
warking with other agencies through the Hennepin
County Traffic Advisory Committee (HCTAC),
Hennepin County Traffic Enforcement Group
(HCTEG), and the Minnesota Towards Zero Deaths
initiative. Officer Barland worked many such projects
this year, coordinating two commercial vehicle
inspection saturations, and two high-visibility traffic
enforcement projects to coincide with the Crystal
Frolics. Officer Barland serves as the director of the
HCTEG and was elected to the board of directors for
the HCTAC.
Rewarding himself with ice cream,
Officer Barland always wears his
safety equipment.
Officer Barland issues his favarite "tickeY' -
a free ice cream cone to children as a reward
for wearing their helmet.
During 2014, blue enforcement lights were successfully installed at
four of the city's most dangerous intersections (as determined by
crash statistics). These lights help officers enforce violations of
failing to stop for red lights. This project is a joint venture between
the City of Crystal Engineering Department, the Crystal Crime
Prevention Board, and the police department. The blue light
installation, and our continuing, concentrated traffic enforcement
efforts, contributed to our agency being selected by the Towards
Zero Death program as an outstanding agency.
Traffic Unit's public education efforts included quarterly traffic safety articles, Cable 12
News interviews, press releases prior to saturated enforcement projects, and safety
training for city crossing guards. We will continue to partner with other agencies and the
public through increased enforcement, education efforts, and traffic engineering projects.

Department K9 Unit
During the 2014 calendar year, K9 Rocco
excelled at his patrol responsibilities.
Rocco was quite productive as he was
deployed 143 times. Rocco provided
assistance to not only our citizens but
neighboring agencies as well.
Notable during those deployments were 47
arrests directly attributed to K9 Rocco.
These arrests include several tracks of
wanted parties who fled on foot and were
located using Rocco's keen sense of smell.
In one incident, a large group had become unruly at a local hotel and were refusing to leave.
When officers intervened, one suspect fled on foot attempting to hide in one of our local
residential neighborhoods. K9 Rocco was deployed to safely search for this person. K9 Rocco
tracked this individual for nearly three blocks leading officers through many yards and hopping
numerous fences. Finally K9 Rocco
stopped at home alerting to a garbage
can. Much to the dismay of the
wanted person, Rocco found him
hiding in that can covered in the
garbage he was hiding in. It was
discovered this suspect was already
wanted by other agencies for felonies
including burglary.
Other note-worthy arrests were made
when K9 Rocco located suspects that
were hidden in buildings. On several
occasions, suspects who were wanted for assaults involving weapons and suspects wanted for
burglaries have attempted to hide in buildings to elude officers. K9 Rocco was able to safely
search these buildings finding these suspects quickly.
Annually, K9 teams are required to certify with the United States
Police Canine Association. This ensures police K9 teams meet
specific requirements to continue patrol wark. This can be a
rigorous testing process, however K9 Rocco performed well at his
first annual certification and successfully passed.
Over the year, K9 Rocco continued an extensive iraining program.
Over 360 hours of training was completed. Rocco attended many
different trainings, some even hosted throughout the state and
instructed by trainers coming from as far away as Germany.
Rocco also completed a narcotics training program with the City of
St. Paul's K-9 Unit. This program was over 160 hours of training
time and toolc place over a course of one month. K-9 Rocco did
extremely well during this
training and passed the United
State Police Canine
Association's narcotics certification test. Rocco is now certified
in the detection of narcotics such as marijuana, both crack and
powder cocaine, methamphetamine, heroin, and ecstasy. This
added function will allow Rocco to keep our citizens safe by
removing dangerous drugs from our city while stopping the
transportation of these narcotics.
Rocco relaxing after a long day of work.
Animal C ontro 1 Unit
Animal Control Officer Tom Mahan encountered or
responded to a total of 447 animal-related incidents during
2014 The number of citizen complaints was 3�13 and the
number of officer-initiated complaints was 104.
Officer Mahan attended Crystal Code Enforceinent meetings
and represented New Hope and Crystal at the PUPS board
meetings. In addition, Mahan assists in the training of new
Community Service Officers and Patrol Officers in both cities
by reviewing animal related ordinances and procedures.
Animal Control Officer Mahan participates in Night to Unite
events and continues to serve as Chair on the Executive
Committee of the Minnesota Animal Disaster Coalition.
SUPPORT SERVICES
Support Services Unit of the Crystal Police Department is responsible for the handling of all property and
evidence collected by the Crystal Police Department. In addition, the Support Services Manager provides
the department's technical support, supervision of the CSO Unit, crime analysis, and oversight of the City
of Crystal's building security and jail administration.
During 2014, officers and employees of the Crystal Police Department entered approxunately 3,000 items
into the Property & Evidence Room. The items entered included evidence taken during criminal
investigations, as well as safe-keeping or found property. In addition to physical items, the Support
Services Manager processed over 5,600 digital photographs and archived 4,100 digital audio recordings.
The use of information technology resources by law enforcement has continued to expand across the
country. In 2014, the Crystal Police Department began using BAIR Analytics ATAC Workstation to assist
with crime analysis functions in late 2014. This software, which is also used in several neighboring
communities, can help identify crime trends and assist with forecasting predictions. Below is a report
generated from the new system.

On September 27th, 2014, Corey was working as an Explorer at Va1leyScare providing security when a guest
had a seizure on a bench outside a ride, which turned into a full cardiac arrest. Without being prompted,
Corey assisted with crowd control and assisted parainedics by preparing advanced first aid equipment.
Several ValleyFair Security Officers and the Security Lielitenants commented that Corey had remained calm,
handled the situation extremely well and was of great assistance to the iirst responders. For his demonstrated
ability to stay calm under extreme pressure, take immediate action in situations where quick thought is
necessary, and willingness to assist others in challenging situations, the Crystal Police Department is proud to
present Corey St. Pierre with the Explorer of the Year Award.
