Please send 3 Affidavits of Publication. Effective 01 -01 -79 COMPENSATION FOR OTHER THAN FULL TIME EMPLOYEES Employees that are not permanent fulltime are used in a number of City depart- ments to assist in handling the workload during certain times of the day, week or year. In the past, it has been up to the individual departments to set salary rates. This, however, has led to a wide disparity in rates among departments and there are varying degrees of difficulty in obtaining part - time employees. To alleviate some of these disparities, the following compensation guidelines are issued. The rate schedules are split into two sections. The first section is for jobs which are of a year- round, part - time nature. The second section is for those jobs that are of a seasonal or special event related nature (including the Recycling Center). As close as possible, wages for these jobs follow the guidelines. Rate schedules will be reviewed semi - annually in July and December. Raises are not automatic and are at the discretion of the individual's supervisor. 0 YEAR ROUND (TEMPORARY /PART TIME) Rates in this grouping are in two levels, again dependent on job level and length in the job. Level A - Basic part -time job Level B - Part -time job that requires a level of responsibility beyond basic part -time position, involving a degree of trust, security, responsibility or specialized skill. Appendix B outlines those jobs. If an individual is in a managerial position, the permanent fulltime repre- sentative should recommend a wage to the City Manager (not to exceed established maximum). SEASONAL /SPECIAL EVENT (TEMPORARY /PART TIME) Wage rates in.this category are a function of the job level and number of seasons in that job (level). Job will be slotted in a level prior to season's commencement. Level 1 - Minimum public contact, low level responsibility Level 2 - Could handle money, works with public Level 3 - Instructor level or specialized skill required Level 4 - Supervisor F, director level a CONTRACT FOR SERVICE As an- alternative to part -time employees, contract for personnel services with either firms or individuals. may be a more cost effective approach. P.E.R.A. Part -time individuals who earn in excess of $250.00 per month, or $3,000.00 per year (and are not full -time students) are subject to P.E.R.A. contribu- tions with the City responsible for a matching share.

For year - round, the steps will be reviewed at six month intervals. $2,137,309 $2,121,628 $ 15,681 TRANSFER TO Police Protection $ 6,169 Fire Protection 9,512 $ 15,681 TRANSFER FROM Contingencies $ 15,681(A) * Indicates red figure.

The same illustrated average deviation of 13.0, if applied to a median ratio of 70; would produce a coefficient of 18.5; if applied to a median ratio of 50, it would produce a coefficient of 26.0. The lower the coefficient of dispersion, the more uniform are the assessments. On the other hand, a high coefficient suggests a lack of equality among individual assessments. For interpretation purposes, the following j guidelines have been established in evaluating an area's coefficient of dispersion.and resultant quality of assess-! ment: Coefficient Uniformity Of Of Dispersion Assessment 0.0 - 9.9% Excellent 10.0 - 19.9% Reasonable 20.0 - 29.9% Questionable 30.0 - Or greater Unacceptable The relative difficulty of the assessment problem is an important factor to be considered in the comparison of coefficients of dispersion between areas and among classes of property., It is reasonable to expect a higher degree of equality in those areas with homogeneous properties to be assessed. Conversely, a lesser degree of uniformity is to be anticipated in those areas with a great variety of properties and an absence•of market criteria. -21- 3 wC M N NLn N •i N 4) C O (4 raO a) U) - (1) N •ri •ri v>, 4 W 0 0 O ro 0,yJNE0 WCC(0 4)4J•4•0 4J0VV0 'a 0 a 14 m ro m o $4 $4 N U r+ a C (a 0) f: 4 o P Q r•1 a) to t'1 .0 •.i 04 to N •11 'O N tT W `4 W 4J U -A Ert0 iyE00 .v>iJEn0L 0 4 0 W Z M 14 Mro00 N W ro W 1J N (0 (L) In Ow C 41) 4 W to C 41 141-4 a) w 0 W 41 o w 41( a 0014Ia.

THE PROBLEM 2. RESIDENT PROPOSED SOLUTIONS — TO DATE 3.'THE MORAL AND LEGAL CASE FOR EDINA TAKING CHARGE 4, A REQUEST OF THE CITY produced 61p Richard V. novacFz 1. THE PROBLEM The Green StrLpLng of every tree Ln sLght brought to LLght somethLng none of us ,- save the engLneers ontLcLpoted. THAT IS: The loss of trees on Morningside Road, whet- her now or later because of road work or Dutch Elm will result in Morningside Road becomming one of the ugliest streets in the Twin Cities. The nearest comparable with the same problem is in St. Paul. THE CAUSE: A row of 60 foot utility poles carrying: 1. an old leaded telephone cable which serves no resident and is above ground only in Edina! 2. a set of 3 high voltage lines which do not dir- ectly serve residents and are part of a wide area grid. Some of these are bare of insulation and in 1967 two of them fell on the Novack propery causing fire and damage to sidewalk, street and" got so hot they melted the gas pipe shut - 6 feet underground. 3. A set of three local lines which serve under half the residents on the street. Itis arbitrary in most cases whether the house was connected to lines in front or back of the house. If the trees are lost to any degree these lines will result in a "Powerline Alley" "appearance on Morningside. Informal realitor opinions indicate affected homes will lose from $1000 to over $5000 in value each. i This is a major Public Works project governing the next 30 to 40 years - it behooves us to do it right, THE FIRST TIME, not at great expense later. 2. RESIDENT PROPOSED SOLUTIONS - TO DATE These have been catagorized but any and all possible combinations can be considered. A. CREATE WIDER BOULEVARDS h. To keep contractors equipment from injuring roots 2. To give trees room for future growth 3. To enable replanting directly on boulevard 4. Cut paving material and labor expense 5. Reduce highspeed Morningside road traffic if street is reduced from oversize status. HOW: 1. Set sidewalk width to 4 feet like the rest of Morningside. 2. Set Street width to 30 feet - the standard Edina two side parking width - instead of 32% as now. Note Morningside Ls not o- thoroughfare - 44th whLch Ls a state oLd street Ls only 30 feet. 3. Set street width to 26, 27 or 28 feet and ban parking on north side where there are actually few homes because of intersecting streets. ThLs optLon to date seems to have more support than 30 feet - even on the north. 4. In either case of 2 or 3 above the present jog at the church should be maintained and two side parking allowed. B. ELIMINATE THE POWERLINES - THE ACTUAL PROBLEM 1.. To prevent major loss of value to affected homes 2. To prevent having to tear things up again in a few years when: a) NSP decides the useful life of these is over b) Residents get fed up with the sight HOW: 1. Bury the telephone cable - and apparently free ! 2. Move the highlines to the existing back lot easement. 3. Bury the highlines during street construction 40 Bury the local lines together with the street lighting planned..ApporentLy Low bids for this LLghtLng burLaL exist and we understand that to combine Lt with distributLon Lines for those few front served homes Ls not dLffLcuLt or much hLgher Ln cost. DETAILS: NSP appears to have a new policy of not burying lines free with a major public works program unless the end of useful life is near. A reasonable case could be made that substantial useful life has been expended and that some danger exists from the worn lines. NSP has been reluctant to give potential costs without a formal request - and independent research attempted by residents has not been completed in the few days since this issue developed. It is the feelings of residents that the city should take the lead in dealing with NSP. C. DENSELY PLANT NEW LARGE (6 ") TREES ON NEW WIDER BOULEVARDS TO HIDE THE LINES D. INSTALL NEW DECORATIVE ALUMINUM POLES In place of the wooden ones - with No "T" on top and to hold the highlines - but not telephone cable E. DO NOTHING No one has said this yet, despite possibly steep costs of some options. F. Other Suggestions ?. . . . 3. THE MORAL AND LEGAL CASE FOR EDINA TAKING CHARGE Morally it is unreasonable to renew a whole area and leave a Single street in worse shape than before — especially when the area is a characteristicly co— hesive unit. One uniquely different street of.a group will stand out and hurt the entire area. There is some legal question that Edina has the power to deal with this'matter — the residents have not had time to have their own attorneys research the matter. But one thing can be assured, several residents already are prepared to engage in legal actions if they feel the net result of the project will be to hurt their property. Even if they can not attack on the grounds that the amount assessed must equal the economic benefit derived , until after the project is completed there appear to be other avenues now. In any case we should avoid such confrontations as it will only be expensive, time consuming, and delay completion of the entire project. If the city will attempt to work out a way to handle the problem it is possible the project can be quickly completed. We are sure that the residents are willing to give a little if the city is willing to give too. 4. A REQUEST OF THE CITY It is respectfully requested that the City of Edina undertake with all due speed an effort to: 1. Alter any plans in a fashion to solve the problems 2. Find a way for the city to handle the NSP problem 3. Find a way to finance any costs necessary. 4. Report back to the residents or any representatives at the earliest possible date. Time has not made it possible for this request to be made in the name of all affected residents — but for those who have been a party to its development we assure the city that there is a willingness to cooperate in any way possible.

MINNESOTA 55435 June 22, 1978 Kenneth Rosland Manager City of Edina 4801 West 50th St. Dear Mr, Rosland: I am.writing to confirm our conversation of 6/22/78 regarding the Morningside Improvement area. Generally, NSP will look at areas of this type to see if our lines need to be moved, the cost of such movement, the cost of replacement with underground, and the useful life of our system. In the Morningside area we do not need to move our system and could not consider replacement with underground unless the additional cost were borne by the benefiting customers. Although the distribution system has been there for some years, it has been ungraded and is generally in good condition with approximately 25 years of useful life left. It does directly serve the customers in that area. We estimated that it would cost roughly $1,500 / lot adjacent to Morningside Rd. to remove the existing overhead line and replace it with an equivalent underground system. Additionally each customer receiving service off of the line on Morningside Rd. would have to have an electrician rewire their service to accept our underground service lateral and install the meter outside the house. If their wiring satisfies the current National Electric Code Standards, we estimate they might incur a charge of approximately $300 / home. If their wiring were not up to code an additional estimated charge of $1,000.00 may occur. These are estimated costs and actual prices must be obtained from an electrical contractor.'. Each customer would be placed on the underground residential rate (an additional $2.40 / month). The customer would be required to restore the area -of the underground service. 100/ of the customers served from the line would be required to take underground service or we would be forced to maintain a duplicate overhead system and the above NSP costs / customer would increase considerably. If you have any further questions please contact me. Sincerel 'H. Keith Jun e Manager Consumer Services HKJ:jso Sunnyside Road Mrs. Betty Ireland, 4005 Sunnyside Rd. - Wants her boulevard tree removed. Mr. John Maloney, 4014 Sunnyside Rd�.- Expressed concern about the number of poles in his block. Mr. Rosland will see if the number can be reduced. Mr. Lee Pertl, 4309 Morningside Road - Objected to lines in front and behind his house. Mr. Rosland recalled that there would be a charge to change the service.and that all neighbors would have to be agreeable to this charge. Curve Ave. No one objected to the recommendation to widen the boulevard by two feet.

We will always remember him as the Happy Wanderer. We participated in the "Gusty Golden Age Talent and Hobby Show" at the Edison High School Auditorium. The Master of Ceremonies was Don Harrison of Channel 9 TV. One lady said we looked like a spring garden in our colorful dresses and bonnets. St. Louis Park Seniors were impressed with our corny skits. I guess there's a little ham in all of us. The Hennepin -Anoka Congregate Dining Project is happy to share your lovely Edina Senior Center, and glad that more of you are finding -us daily. We hope you will think of people who could benefit from this dining experience and invite them to come with . you. We will continue to do our best to be out of your way when you have scheduled events here, even though our contract with the Center stipulates we are to have use of the kitchen and dining area from 10 to 2 weekdays. When we serve a large group I trust you will understand our inability to clear up early. Offers to help are always welcome! We attempt to leave the area clean for other users and trust you will do the same for US. We need 2 working days for reservations; for Monday dinner, call before.1:30 on Thursday. Cancellations in case of change in plans should be made as early as possible by calling the same number: 835 - 5039. . Rw auk July 21st Birthday Party Phyllis Stroth, director of the Dance Studio, will be here with her students to enter- tain us. There will be tap dancing, ballet and acrobatics. The girls are between 6 and 20 years old. It should be a fun afternoon; don't miss it. FIDDLER ON THE ROOF, trip to the Country House, the Zoo and the parks! What a fun month we had in June! And July promises to be-just as exciting. Be sure to keep July 13 and July 27 open, plus all the other dates on which exciting and interesting events are scheduled. Fun, fun, fun! The city is going to add some space to our present parking to enable more guests to park who come to the Center. Remember, all improvements take time, but it will happen. How many of you are game to join the health program? You will be helped with a proper diet and will learn how to achieve a weight loss. It's a challenge and maybe by competing with your neighbor on weight loss you'll succeed where otherwise you might give in to temptation. Come to the meeting.on July 25 at 1:30 p.m. i T 1 .19 V Just think, Tony Korbel, Alice Anderson, Jo Wolfe, Alma Prehn, Ruby McLaughlin,. Jeff Farmer and Hazel Hartman have each put in over 100 volunteer hours from January to April 1978.... That's terrific! Keep up the great work! We are grateful to Helen Bares for cleaning and straightening the shelves in our kitchen. It was a big job and now it's up to all of us to keep them in order. Congratulations, Edina.Singin' Swingin' Singers! You put on a fabulous Dixie Jubilee; the music, costumes, decorations and food were fantastic. You brighten spirits every time you perform! Thank you, Annette Jakel, for all the time and energy you put into working here during your internship. Good luck to you in the future. We'll all miss you.

A REQUEST OF THE CITY Produced 13y.: Rkrhard V. novach 1. THE PROBLEM The Green Striping- of every tree in sight brought to Light something none of us - save the engineers anticipated. THAT IS: The loss of trees on Morningside Road, whet- her now or later because of road work or Dutch Elm will result in Morningside Road becomming one of the ugliest streets in the Twin Cities. The nearest comparable with the same problem is in St. Paul. THE CAUSE: A row of 60 foot utility poles carrying: 1. an old leaded telephone cable which serves no resident and is above ground only in Edina! 2. a set of 3 high voltage lines which do not dir- ectly serve residents and are part of a wide area grid. Some of these are bare of insulation and in 1967 two of them fell on the Novack propery causing fire and damage to sidewalk, street and got so hot they melted the gas pipe shut - 6 feet underground. 3. A set of three local lines which serve under half the residents on the street. It is arbitrary in most cases whether the house was connected to lines in front or back of the house. If the trees are lost to any degree these lines will result in a "Powerline Alley" "appearance on Morningside. Informal realitor opinions indicate affected homes will lose from $1000 to over $5000 in value each. This is a major Public Works project governing the next 30 to 40 years - it behooves us to do it right, THE FIRST TIME, not at great expense later. 2. RESIDENT PROPOSED SOLUTIONS - TO DATE - These have been catagorized but any and all possible combinations can be considered. A. CREATE WIDER BOULEVARDS 1. To keep contractors equipment from injuring roots 2. To give trees room for future growth 3. To enable replanting directly on boulevard 4. Cut paving material and labor expense 5. Reduce highspeed Morningside road traffic if street is reduced from oversize status. HOW: 1. Set sidewalk width to 4 feet like the rest of Morningside. 2. Set Street width to 30 feet - the standard Edina two side parking width - instead of 32% as now. Note MornLngsLde Ls not a thoroughfare - 44th whLch Ls a state aLd street Ls only 30 feet. 3. Set street width to 26, 27 or 28 feet and ban parking on north side where there are actually few homes because of intersecting streets. ThLs optLon to date seems to hove more support than 30 feet - even on the north. 4. In either case of 2 or 3 above the present jog at the church should be maintained and two side parking allowed. B. ELIMINATE THE POWERLINES - THE'ACTUAL PROBLEM 1. To prevent major loss of value to affected homes 2. To prevent having to tear things up again in a few years when: a) NSP decides the useful life of these is over b) Residents get fed up with the sight HOW: 1. Bury the telephone cable - and apparently free 1 2. Move the highlines to the existing back lot easement. 3. Bury the highlines during street construction 4. Bury the local lines together with the street lighting planned. Apparently Low bids for this LLghtLng burLQL exLst and we understand that to combLne Lt wLth dLstrLbutLon LLnes for those few front served homes Ls not dLffLcuLt or much hLgher Ln cost. DETAILS: NSP appears to have a new policy of not burying lines free with a major public works program unless the end of useful life is near. A reasonable case could be made that substantial useful life has been expended and that some danger exists from the worn lines. NSP has been reluctant to give potential costs without a formal request - and independent research attempted by residents has not been completed in the few days since this issue developed. It is the feelings of residents that the city should take the lead in dealing with NSP. C. DENSELY PLANT NEW LARGE (6 ") TREES ON NEW WIDER BOULEVARDS TO HIDE THE LINES D. INSTALL NEW DECORATIVE ALUMINUM POLES In place of the wooden ones - with No "T" on top and to hold the highlines - but not telephone cable E. DO NOTHING No one has said this yet, despite possibly steep costs of some options. F. Other Suggestions ?. . . . . 3. THE MORAL AND LEGAL CASE FOR EDINA TAKING CHARGE Morally it is unreasonable to renew a whole area and leave a Single street in worse shape than before — especial]y when the area is a characteristicly co— hesive unit. One uniquely different street of a group will stand out and hurt the entire area. There is some legal question that Edina has the power to deal with this matter — the residents have not had time to have their own attorneys research the matter. But one thing can be assured, several residents already are prepared to engage in legal actions if they feel the net result of the project will be to hurt their property. Even if they can not attack on the grounds that the amount assessed must equal the economic benefit derived , until after the project is completed there appear to be other avenues now. In any case we should avoid such confrontations as it will only be expensive, time consuming, and delay completion of the entire project. If the city will attempt to work out a way to handle the problem it is possible the project can be quickly completed. We are sure that the residents are willing to give a little if the city is willing to give too. 4. A REQUEST OF THE CITY It is respectfully requested that the City of Edina undertake with all due speed an effort to: 1. Alter any plans in a fashion to solve the problems 2. Find a way for the city. to handle the NSP problem 3. Find a way to finance any costs necessary. 4. Report back to the residents or any representatives at the earliest possible date. Time has not made it possible for this request to be made in the name of all affected residents — but for those who have been a party to its development we assure the city that there is a willingness to cooperate in any way possible.

Herbert Schechter (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "Herbert "), died on September 25, 1977 as a result of.injuries sustained on August 27, 1977, as hereinafter alleged. 2. Herbert left surviving him, as his next of kin, the following persons, of the following ages, bearing the following re- lationship to him: Name Relationship Age Lois Schechter Wife 60 Ned C. Schechter Son 35 Jay H. Schechter Son 29 3. By an order of the District Court for the Fourth Judicial District dated March 15, 1978, plaintiff was appointed trustee to maintain an action for the wrongful death of Herbert for the benefit of said next of kin. 4. Plaintiff is bringing this action under Minnesots Statutes Sec. 573.02 for the benefit of the next of kin of Herbert, described hereinabove. 5. At all times material herein, Edina owned and operated a public golf course in the City of Edina known as Braemar Golf Course (hereinafter sometimes referred to as "Braemar "). In connection with the operation and business activity of Braemar,. Edina (a) invited and permitted members of the general public to play golf at Braemar and charged a fee to each person who so played golf at Braemar; and (b) leased and rented electric or gas - propelled golf carts to persons playing golf at Braemar and charged a rental fee for the use of said carts. In addition, Braemar maintained a "Men's Club" at its golf course, the members of which were invited by Edina to play golf at Braemar for a fee. 6. At all times material herein, Herbert as a member of the general public and as a member of Braemar's. "Men's Club" played golf at Braemar with the knowledge and consent of Edina and Braemar and paid a fee therefor. From time to time Herbert rented a golf cart from Edina and Braemar and paid a rental fee therefor. 7. On August 27, 1977, Herbert as a resident.of the City of Edina, a member of the general public, and a member of the Men "s Club" of Braemar paid a fee to Braemar for golfing privileges on that day and rented a golf cart from Braemar for a fee, which he paid to Braemar. Herbert was on the premises of Braemar with the knowledge and consent of Edina and at its invitation, and he played golf and drove the rented golf cart on the premises of Braemar on that date. 8. Edina was negligent with respect to Herbert in that, among other things, Edina failed to monitor, control, and direct the movement and traffic of golf carts driven by persons playing golf at Braemar, including Herbert; it failed to place and maintain warning signs concerning routes and areas over which golf carts could not safely be driven by Herbert and other golfers; it failed to place barricades and other devices to prevent Herbert and other golfers fro; -! driving golf carts in areas which were unsafe and dangerous for the driving of golf carts; it failed otherwise to prevent Herbert and other -2- golfers from driving golf carts in areas which were unsafe and dangerous for the operation and driving of golf carts; it rented a golf cart to Herbert which did not function properly and which was defective, unreasonably dangerous, unsafe and not fit for the purposes for which it was intended. 9. As a proximate and direct result of Edina's negligence, as hereinabove alleged, Herbert was driving a defective and dangerous golf cart in an area of Braemar Golf Course which, unbeknown to Herbert, was dangerous and unsafe for the operation of golf carts, and the golf cart turned over; said golf cart struck Herbert on the leg and other parts of his body. 10. As a direct and proximate result of said turning over of the golf cart, Herbert sustained injuries to his leg and other parts of his body. 11. As a direct and proximate result of the turning over of said golf cart being driven by Herbert and as a direct and proximate result of the injuries sustained by Herbert, Herbert died on September 25, 1977. 12. As a direct and proximate result of Edina's negligence, of said turning over of the golf cart, of the injuries sustained by Herbert, and of his death as hereinabove alleged, the next of kin of Herbert suffered pecuniary loss, all to their damage in the sum of $200,000.00. 13. Pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Sec. 466.05, Lois Schechter, the surviving spouse of Herbert and plaintiff herein, on November 4, 1977, gave written notice to the City of Edina of her claim for death by wrongful act and omission on the part of Edina, and in said notice set forth the time, place and circumstances of the injuries and loss sustained by Herbert and by his surviving spouse and next of kin. COUNT II. 14. Plaintiff realleges all and singular all of the allega- tions of paragraphs 1 through 7 and paragraph 13 of COUNT ONE of the complaint. -3- 15. The golf cart rented by Edina to Herbert was in a defective condition and was unreasonably dangerous and unsafe for its intended use at the time it left Edina's possession and control. 16. Edina, as the lessor of the golf cart, knew that the cart would be used by golfers such as Herbert and represented to said users, including Herbert, that it would be safe for its intended use. 17. Edina knew that the golf cart was in such a condition that it was likely to be dangerous for those for those use the golf cart was intended, including Herbert, and that users thereof, including Herbert, would be endangered by its probable use. 18. Edina knew or had reason to know that Herbert would rely upon Edina to furnish a golf cart which was in a safe condition for the purpose for which it was rented to him, and Edina had no reason to believe that Herbert would realize that the golf cart was in an unreasonably dangerous condition. 19. Edina failed to inform Herbert of the unreasonably dangerous condition of the golf cart which it rented to him. 20. Herbert was unaware of the dangerous condition of the golf cart which Edina rented to him and.was unaware of any condition which made it unsafe for its intended use. 21. As a direct result of all of the above, including Edina's renting a defective and dangerous golf cart to Herbert, in the course of Herbert's operating the same, the cart turned over and injured Herbert. 22. As a direct result of the turning over of said golf cart and as a direct result of the injuries sustained by Herbert, Herbert died on September 25, 1977. 23. As a direct and proximate'.result of all of the above, including the turning over of the cart, the injuries sustained by Herbert, and his death, as hereinabove alleged, the next of kin of Herbert suffered pecuniary loss, all to their damage in the sum of $200,000.00. -4- 24. As a direct result of all of the above, defendant is strictly liable to plaintiff and Herbert's next of kin in the sum of $200,000.00. WHEREFORE, plaintiff prays for judgment in her favor and against defendant in the sum of $200,000.00, together with her costs and disbursements herein. MASLON, KAPLAN, EDELMAN,.
