SUBJECT:
April 2, 2024
City Council
Ben Perkey, PE, Interim Director of Public Works/City Engineer
Authorizing the 2024 MCES Private Property I&I Grant Agreement
Background
The 2024 MCES Private Property Inflow and Infiltration Grant Program provides $1.5 million in
wastewater revenue to provide grants to private property owners to help with repairs that will remove
and prevent clear water from entering the wastewater treatment system. In 2022, the Minnesota
Legislature amended statute 471.342 to allow the Met Council to provide grant funding to local
municipalities to assist private property owners with costs associated with repairing sewer
infrastructure on their property. Municipalities may apply to receive grant money and distribute those
funds to private property owners or contractors in alignment with the grant program guidelines. Grant
awards may be 50% of eligible costs up to $5,000. Qualified spending on eligible work can happen
between Jan. 1, 2024 and Dec. 31, 2024.
On Dec. 5, 2023, the Council authorized the application for the MCES Private Property I&I Grant.
The City of Crystal has been awarded $100,000 to administer the grant program.
Use of Funds
The city will use the MCES grant funds to augment the city’s existing home improvement grant
program which pays for 40% of qualifying homeowners’ sanitary sewer service lining or replacement
projects.
The grant program will also leverage the city’s existing private sanitary sewer repair program that is
part of the annual Utility Reconstruction Project.
The overarching goal is to significantly expand the number of old sanitary sewer services being lined or
replaced in 2024.
Attachment

flow discharge limit (I/I Goal) for each community connected to the metropolitan sanitary sewer
disposal system. Wastewater flow that exceeds the respective I/I Goal is considered excessive
flow. Communities that have a measured wastewater flow rate greater than 80 percent of the I/I
Goal are eligible to apply for the Grant.
3. The Council authorizes its staff to enter into a private property inflow and infiltration grant
agreement with local municipalities that are eligible for this grant program.

1.1. Effective Date. The effective date of this Grant Agreement is the date on which the Grant

Memorandum
DATE: April 2, 2024
TO: City Council
FROM: Ben Perkey, PE, Interim Director of Public Works/City Engineer
SUBJECT: New Hope Joint Powers Agreement for 2024 Utility Reconstruction Project
Background
The 2024 Utility Reconstruction Project includes the complete replacement of public utilities and
reconstruction of the roadway of Louisiana Avenue N. from Medicine Lake Rd/27th Avenue N. to 32nd
Avenue N. as well as 31st Avenue N. from Louisiana Avenue N. west to the cul-de-sac. Louisiana Avenue
N.is a border street between Crystal and New Hope and this segment of 31st Avenue N. is entirely in
New Hope. Similar to Crystal Street Reconstruction projects which involved portions of New Hope
streets, Crystal will be the project lead and New Hope will reimburse Crystal for the work that occurs
within New Hope Limits, plus an administration fee. This is also the identical approach used when Crystal
resurfaced 32nd Avenue N. which included a portion of the street within New Hope’s city limits.
This is the same Joint Powers Agreement template that has been used when either Crystal or New Hope
have been the lead agency for work involving the other City’s infrastructure. Based on the engineering
costs ($119,437.11) and post bid project cost estimate ($1,328,549.89 construction costs), New Hope’s
share (including administrative costs) is $1,444,987.00
Attachment
•Proposed Joint Powers Agreement
Recommended Action
•Motion to approve the resolution authorizing the Joint Powers Agreement with New Hope for
the 2024 Utility Reconstruction Project.

Memorandum
DATE: April 2, 2024
TO: City Council
FROM: Ben Perkey, PE, Interim Director of Public Works/City Engineer
Patrick Sele, Utilities Superintendent
SUBJECT: Replacement of control systems at the Perry Sanitary Sewer Lift Station
Background
The City of Crystal has been replacing the outdated control panels at the sanitary sewer lift stations
in recent years, with the most recent upgrade being the Maryland Sanitary Sewer Lift Station in
2022. The control panel at the Perry Sanitary Sewer Lift Station is the last control panel to be
upgraded and the technology is outdated.
Currently the communications system transmits via radio frequency and the proposed upgrades will
change to Cradlepoint (wireless network) which is a much more reliable method.
The proposed control system replacement will not only replace all of the control systems for the
sanitary sewer lift station, but also restructure the way the door opens to the Perry Sanitary Sewer
Lift Station, to allow for easier access, reduce the risk of accidents, and eliminate safety concerns.
Quotes
Only one quote was obtained for the proposed purchase and installation because this control
system must have the same control systems and interface as the other lift stations in order to
interact properly with the City’s SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) system. Total
Control Systems, Inc. has installed the systems at the other lift stations and provides the back-end
support for SCADA:
•Total Control Systems, Inc.: $50,709.
Attachment
•Quote from Total Control Systems, Inc.
Funding
The 2024 CIP included $70,000 in the sanitary sewer utility fund for the replacement of the Perry
Sanitary Sewer Lift Station control systems.
Recommended Action
Motion to approve the resolution authorizing the contract for replacement of control systems at
the Perry Sanitary Sewer Lift Station.

MEMORANDUM
To: Crystal Mayor and City Council
Adam Bell, City Manager
From: Troy Gilchrist
Date: March 26, 2024 (for April 2, 2024 Council Meeting)
Re: First Reading of an Ordinance Prohibiting Use of Cannabis Products in Public Places
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
On August 15, 2023, the City Council adopted Ordinance No. 2023-06, an interim ordinance
placing a moratorium on the use of cannabis products in public places. The prohibition applied
to those areas defined in the interim ordinance as being a public place, which was limited to
public parks, rights-of-way, or city owned parking lots. The prohibition was temporary and
directed staff to review and make recommendations regarding a permanent ordinance to address
this issue.
As part of the new cannabis legislation, local governments were expressly authorized by
Minnesota Statutes, section 152.0263, subdivision 5 to adopt an ordinance to prohibit cannabis
use in public places. Instead of attempting to define what constitutes a “public place,” the
legislature instead set out what could not be considered a public place:
(1) a private residence, including the person’s curtilage or yard;
(2) private property not generally accessible by the public, unless the person is
explicitly prohibited from consuming cannabis flower, cannabis products, lower-potency
hemp edibles, or hemp-derived consumer products on the property by the owner of the
property; or
(3) the premises of an establishment or event licensed to permit on-site consumption.
By implication, any place in the City that is not one of the above could be considered a public
place. When discussing the interim ordinance, the City Council agreed with staff’s comments
that attempting to apply the prohibition to all other areas of the City was too broad and, instead,
it should be limited to publicly owned places like parks, streets, and public parking lots.
5.5
CR205-30-941691.v1
As directed in the interim ordinance, staff has considered the City options as to the scope of the
prohibition. As previously discussed, the cannabis legislation already prohibits the use of
cannabis products through inhalation of smoke, aerosol, or vapor at any place where smoking is
prohibited under Minnesota Statues, section 144.414 (Clean Indoor Air Act). Minn. Stat. §
342.09, subd. 1(b)(3). Therefore, staff recommends the permanent prohibition on the public use
of cannabis continue to be limited to same publicly owned places. The attached ordinance places
the prohibition in a new Section 635 of the City Code and contains the same prohibition imposed
by the interim ordinance.
The enclosed ordinance is before the City Council for a first reading. Staff recommends the City
Council conduct the first reading and schedule the ordinance for a second reading at its April 16,
2024 meeting.
Feel free to let me know if there are any questions.

DATE: March 27, 2024
RE: Consider second reading of an ordinance amending the Official Zoning
Map to add airport safety zones in the Crystal Airport Zoning Ordinance
and adoption of a resolution approving summary language of the
ordinance for publication
__________________________________________________________________________
A.BACKGROUND
The Crystal Airport Zoning Ordinance was recently adopted by the Joint Airport Zoning
Board (JAZB) and went into effect on January 1, 2024. Although state law does not
require the new ordinance to be included in the Unified Development Code (UDC), the
city will be administering the ordinance and must amend the city’s official zoning map to
reflect the airport safety zones described in the ordinance.
Notice of the March 11 public hearing for the map amendment was published in the
Sun Post on February 29 and posted to all neighborhoods on Nextdoor. At the Planning
Commission public hearing, the Commission unanimously recommended approval of
the zoning map amendment. No one from the public provided comments.
At the April 2, 2024 City Council meeting the Council is being asked to approve second
reading and adoption of the ordinance and adoption of a resolution for summary
publication. The first reading of the ordinance was approved by the Council on March
19, 2024.

PAGE 2 OF 2
B. BACKGROUND OF MAP AMENDMENT
The adopted Crystal Airport Zoning Ordinance describes the following airport safety
zones that are to be added to the city’s zoning map:
• Zone 1: The zone has the same boundaries as the Airport district (AP) and
regulates both land use and structure height.
• Zone 2: This zone primarily regulates structure height.
• Air space: This zone extends from the airport to the cities of Brooklyn Park,
Brooklyn Center, New Hope, Robbinsdale, and Minneapolis and
generally regulates interference with airport operations.
C. REQUESTED ACTION
At the March 11, 2024 Planning Commission meeting, the Commission recommended
approval of the amendment to the official zo ning map by a vote of 5 to 0 (three
members were absent and one member attended via Zoom and therefore was not able
to vote).
The following is the proposed schedule for adopting the zoning map amendment:
