MEMORANDUM

From: Troy Gilchrist
Re: Modification of Sprinkler Requirements
Date: November 2, 2017
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I was asked to research and report back to the Council on its authority with respect to sprinkler
system requirements. Specifically, the Council desires to know if it has the authority to modify
the sprinkler requirements to reduce the burdens they impose on owners required to install
sprinkler systems in existing buildings.
As the Council is aware, Article VII, section 4 of the West Metro Fire-Rescue District Joint
Powers Agreement (“JPA”) requires each member city to adopt the Minnesota Fire Code and “to
adopt optional appendix chapter 1306 of the Minnesota Building Code for ‘Special Fire
Protection Systems.’” The City of Crystal complied with that provision and Section 400.01,
subd. 3(b)(1) of the Crystal City Code adopts “Chapter 1306, Special Fire Protection Systems,
with option 1306.0020, subdivision 2.” As the Council directed, I prepared an amendment to
this section to change from option 2 to option 3. Changing that option does not violate the terms
of the JPA or require it to be amended.
My office confirmed with the Minnesota Department of Labor and Industry that a city ma y
choose to opt back out of the optional Chapter 1306. In other words, the Council could amend
its Code to remove special fire protection systems requirements. This move would, however, not
be consistent with the City’s obligations under the JPA and would require all of the member
cities to agree to amend the JPA to remove the requirement or make adoption optional. In the
meantime, the City is exercising its authority to change from option 2 to option 3. The state
asked that the City inform Doug Nord at 651-284-5838 once the change occurs so he can note
the change in the state’s records.
In looking more specifically at the question of whether the City can go beyond merely choosing
between option 2 or option 3 and actually adopt its own modified sprinkler requirement, I
2
510008v2 TJG CR225-423
reviewed the authorizing legislation in Minnesota Statues, chapter 326B, Minnesota Rules,
Chapter 1306, and case law dealing with attempts to adopt local variations to the State Building
Code. As explained below, the short answer to the question of whether the Council can adopt its
own sprinkler requirement is no.
Under Minnesota Rule, part 1306.0020, subpart 1, a city adopting Chapter 1306 must adopt it
with “either subpart 2 or 3, without amendment.” (emphasis added). Additionally, Minnesota
Rule, part 1306.0010 indicates that “[t]his chapter, if adopted, must be adopted without
amendment.” In other words, this optional chapter of the State Building Code is established as
an all in or all out proposition, with the only remaining option being the adoption, without
amendment, of option 2 or option 3.
This limitation is consistent with the general limitation placed on local governments when
adopting the State Building Code. The application and enforcement provisions of the State
Building Code in Minnesota Statutes, section 326B.121 includes the following:
“The State Building Code supersedes the building code of any municipality.” Subdivision
1(b); and
“A municipality must not by ordinance, or through development agreement, require
building code provisions regulating components or systems of any structure that are
different from any provision of the State Building Code.” Subdivision 2(c).
Attempts by cities to enforce their own modifications to the State Building Code have uniformly
been struck down. In City of Minnetonka v. Mark Z. Jones Associates, Inc., 236 N.W.2d 163
(Minn. 1975), the Minnesota Supreme Court found a city ordinance that was interpreted as
requiring certain emergency lighting and imposed a stricter sprinkler requirement than imposed
under the State Building Code to be preempted by state law. The current State Building Code
more specifically addresses sprinklers than it did in 1975, but even at that time the court found it
was “influenced, if not governed, by the fact that the State Building Code itself deals extensively
with fire prevention and fire-related safety measures.” Id. at 167. “We are not persuaded that
the legislature, in authorizing the State Building Code and providing that it should supersede all
other building codes, was unmindful of the public's overriding concern for fire safety.” Id.
Finally, the court noted that it “is difficult to conceive of any matter of public concern which
should be given greater attention in the State Building Code than fire prevention. We therefore
reject the argument that the legislature did not intend to preempt regulations dealing with fire
prevention in authorizing the code.” Id.
In City of Morris v. Sax Investments, Inc., 749 N.W.2d 1 (Minn. 2008), the Minnesota Supreme
Court address a rental ordinance that included various code type of requirements that were
challenged as being in conflict with and prohibited by the State Building Code. In analyzing the
scope of the preemption language currently found in Minnesota Statutes, section 326B.121 and
that is quoted above, the court found “this language prohibits a municipal ordinance if (1) the
ordinance is a building code provision; (2) it regulates a component or system of a residential
structure; and (3) it is different from a provision of the State Building Code.” Id. at 7. As to the
first element, “if the subject of the regulation is included within the State Building Code, it is a
3
510008v2 TJG CR225-423
‘building code’ regulation.” Id. at 8. As to the second element, the language is defined broadly
to include a constituent part of a structure or a group of devices or artificial objects forming a
network for distributing something. Finally, the third element means “any difference from the
State Building Code is prohibited. Thus, even a provision that is merely additional and
complementary to a provision in the State Building Code is prohibited.” Id. at 10.
Finally, in Builders Ass’n of Minnesota v. City of St. Paul, 819 N.W.2d 172 (Minn. Ct. App.
2012) the Minnesota Court of Appeals considered an egress window policy (not ordinance)
adopted by the city’s Department of Safety and Inspection (not the city council). The policy
imposed stricter minimum size requirements and required compliance with those standards when
replacing windows, which was argued to be too burdensome and in conflict with the State
Building Code. In the case the court dealt with an argued inconsistency between the State
Building Code and the State Fire Code. Given the broad scope of the State Building Code, the
court found “the state fire code does not supersede the building code, even with regard to those
requirements that the state fire marshal deems necessary to ensure a minimum level of fire
prevention.” Id. at 180. The city argued that because the requirement was in a policy, not an
ordinance, it was not preempted by the State Building Code. However, the court did not agree
with that argument. The city admitted the policy had the effect of law and so the court
recognized that under this theory a city could undermine the entire State Building Code by
simply adopting its own code as a policy. The court concluded the “city may not avoid the
preemption provisions of the state building code by terming its regulation a ‘policy’ rather than
adopting it through formal enactment.” Id. at 182.
These cases underscore the recollection that I mentioned during the worksession that the
legislature has been careful to preclude local governments from enacting their own building
codes or modifying the State Building Code. So, under the express language in Minnesota
Statutes, section 326B.121 and Minnesota Rules, chapter 1306, as applied by the decisions
discussed above, it seems clear the City is prohibited from attempting to modify the sprinkler
requirements in Minnesota Rules, chapter 1306 or to develop its own sprinkler requirements.
Please feel free to let me know if there are any questions.

The budget is a comprehensive decision-making document based on current city operaƟ ons,
services and its policies and goals. Work began on the 2018 budget in April 2017 when the City
Council met to determine prioriƟ es for 2018. The City Council held two addiƟ onal work sessions
to provide direcƟ on to a budget that maintains core services, is sensiƟ ve to tax impacts and of
the following Council goals:
1. To create a thriving business climate
2. To develop fi scally sound and stable fnancial policies and pracƟ ces
3. To create strong neighbohoods.
Review and approval of the preliminary property tax levies and budget was held on
September 7, 2017. A public input meeƟ ng was held on October 3, 2017 and the formal Truth in

Budget Overview
The City of Crystal has developed a comprehensive budget that encompasses City Council goals,
maintenance of current levels of services and investment in infrastructure. Property taxes support
approximately 67% of the annual general fund budget and in order to meet the objectives above,
the budget includes a 6% property tax increase.
The 2018 Budget requires $14,037,076 for operations within the General Fund to continue at
existing service levels and includes the best information available regarding infl ationary factors,
union contract settlements and anticipated maintenance and equipment needs. Each budget
year is potentially impacted by infl ation, state and local policy changes as well as the economy.
The remainder of the budget document provides details about property taxes, property tax rates,
property tax impacts to the community and details of each budget.
Property taxes are levied for the purposes of providing services to the community, supporting
capital needs and providing funding for the Economic Development Authority (EDA). The following
information shows the property tax levy from 2015 – 2018.

Fund Types
The City of Crystal classifi es funds into six types: General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Debt Service
Funds, Capital Project Funds, Enterprise Funds and Internal Service Funds.
General Fund
As the primary operating fund, the General Fund records all revenues and expenditures that
are not assigned to another fund. The fund provides the resources to sustain the daily activities
for administrative and operating expenses for general government, public safety, public works,
recreation, and community development expenditures. The fund has more diverse revenue sources
than other funds, including property taxes, licenses, permits, fi nes and forfeits, intergovernmental
revenue (grants), service charges, and investment interest. The General Fund budget can be found on
pages 11–12.
Special Revenue Funds
Certain activities are established or designated by statute, charter or ordinance with defi ned revenue
sources for a specifi c and restricted purpose, such as tax increment fi nancing. Funds included in
this fund type are Tax Increment Financing Districts and the Economic Development Fund (EDA).
Tax increment was fi rst received in July 2000 and the last receipt is expected in December 2025
Increments must be spent on activities that promote the development and preservation of affordable
housing. The city has one Tax Increment District: District 2155/ Heather Manor Apartments and The
Heathers Assisted Living Facility at 2900 - 3000 Douglas Dr. N. Information about this fund can be
found on page 13.
Capital Project Funds
While Capital Project Funds are approved by the City Council on a project-by-project basis, the City
has included the 2018 budgeted projects within this budget document. The use of these fund types
are to account for the monies used for the acquisition and construction of capital projects. Capital
Project Fund budgets can be found on page 14.
Debt Service Funds
Established to account for the payment (from special assessments and other sources) of interest and
principal on long-term debt. The debt schedule and information regarding city bonds may be found
on page 15.
Enterprise Funds
Established to account for the acquisition, operation, and maintenance of activities that are self-
supporting such as city water and sewer service, storm drainage, recycling and street lights. User fees
predominantly support the operations of these funds. Enterprise fund budgets as well as user rate
impacts can be found on pages 16-17.

Enterprise Funds
The city maintains fi ve enterprise funds; water, sewer, storm drainage, recycling and street lights. For
2018, the city has approved rate increases as identifi ed below for water, sewer and storm drainage.
Recycling and street light rates remain consistent with 2017.
In developing the 2018 water, sewer and storm drainage budgets, there are several reasons cost
factors driving the need to increase rates.
Water – projected infrastructure improvements and infl ationary costs
Sewer – MCES disposal charges rate increase of 8.5%
Storm Drainage – projected infrastructure improvements and infl ationary costs
Operations of the utility funds in 2018 are designed to maintain the infrastructure and level of service
that Crystal residents have been receiving. The staff annually updates a fi ve-year utility rate study
reviewing operations and capital needs.
The City of Crystal receives its water supply through a Joint Water Commission (JWC) with the
cities of Golden Valley and New Hope. The JWC purchases water in a contract with the City of
Minneapolis.
The Water, Sanitary Sewer and Strom Drainage funds plan for signifi cant capital projects over the
next fi ve years. These are needed to replace aging infrastructure and expand the storm drainage
system to areas of the city that are under served.
