HILL Mr. Ted Olsson Village of Edina 4801 West 50th Street Minneapolis, Minnesota Dear Ted: ATTORNEYS AT LAW July 25, 1950 FIR5T NATIONAL -SOO LINE BUILDING MINNEAPOLIS 2. MINNESOTA TELEPHONE MAIN 3351 i At the meeting of the council last night an opinion was re- quested with respect to a bid submitted by- Phelps -Drake on a con - struction.project for the water department. The bid submitted covered certain hydrants, and the bid did not specify the make of hydrant to be used. Since the bids were opened you have been advised verbally that the contractor proposes to use Columbian hydrants. Inasmuch as the village has no such hydrants in its present system and inasmuch as the parts for the Columbian hydrants are not interchangeable with the parts -for the hydrants now in use, you do not wish to have the con- tractor use the hydrants proposed, and you have inquired as to whether or not the village can require him to use hydrants, the parts for which are interchangeable with those now in use in the village. It is your understanding that the contractor obtained bids from several hydrant manufacturers and proposes to use the Columbian bid because the quoted price was about $500 less. In connection with your inquiry you have furnished me with a copy of the specifications which were the basis for the bid sub- mitted by Phelps- Drake. On page D10 thereof it is provided: "Hydrants of approved manufacture and design shall be installed where shown on the plans or ordered by the Engineer." On page D11 the following statement appears: "All parts of hydrants furnished must be interchange- able for the hydrants proposed and for hydrants of similar make now in use in village and failure to ful- fill this requirement in any hydrant will cause said 1 DORSEY, COLMAN, BARKER, SCOTT & BARBER Mr. Ted Olsson -2- July 25, 1950 hydrant to be unconditionally rejected and no pay - went will be made for said hydrant." It is not entirely clear as to whether the last quoted pro- vision was intended to require the parts for the proposed hydrants to be interchangeable with parts for hydrants.in use in the village or whether the parts must be interchangeable with parts for hydrants in use in the village manufactured by the same company. The reason for this ambiguity arises primarily out of the phrase "similar make ". I am inclined to believe that this language should, be interpreted so as to require that the parts on the hydrants proposed must be inter- changeable with parts on the hydrants in use in the village. I there- fore believe that under the facts stated above you are justified in refusing to accept the Columbian hydrants. This is the opinion that I gave to you and to the council verbally last night. However, upon giving the matter further consideration it seems to me that it may be material in interpreting this.language to ascertain whether or not the parts for hydrants manufactured by one company are ever inter- changeable for parts for hydrants manufactured by another company. If such parts are never interchangeable, the meaning which I have proposed for the phrase "similar make" would not seem to be warranted. In this event it would be necessary to ascertain whether or not the contractor would be willing voluntarily to furnish a different type of hydrant without additional charge to the village or at an additional charge to the village of less than 9500. If the contractor is willing to furnish the type of hydrant desired by you but not covered by the assumed construction of the specifications at an additional cost of 9500, it is my opinion that the council would be permitted to make such an arrangement with him with- out advertising for new bids. In this connection I understand that the bid of Phelps -Drake was lower than the next lowest bid by about $6,000. If the additional cost is in excess of $500, it is my opinion that it would be necessary to reject all bids and to readvertise. In this event I suggest that the specifications be clarified insofar as the type of hydrant is concerned. I would be glad to.discuss the exact nature of this revision with you. In view of the fact that the opinion expressed herein differs from the opinion verbally given the council last night, it may be that you will wish to discuss this matter further or have me discuss it DORSEY, COLMAN, BARKER, SCOTT & BARBER Mr. Ted Olsson -3- July 25, 1950 with some of the members of the council.

Briefly stated, the first question is whether the Village may cur- rently bill owners of properties which are not served by the Vil- lage water mains, but which are able to be connected, or which are within 1,000 feet of a hydrant, on the theory that such owners are presently being benefited by such availability of water, the benefit arising from the increased fire protection furnished to such owners. It is recognized that such owners benefit financially because of the lower insurance rates made possible by the nearness of such water supply. Apparently it is the feeling of the Council that an inequitable situation arises from the fact that the;entire cost of operating the municipal water system is borne by those owners who are connected with the water system and pay water rates, so that, in effect, fire protection service is furnished free by the users to the non - users. I have not been able to find any statutory authority for the imposition of such charges on non - users, so the answer must rest on general principles -and case - -law. Such charges cannot be supported under the general taxing power, since the Constitution requires uni- formity of taxation (Article 1X, Section 1), except that municipal corporations may be authorized to levy and collect special assess- ments for local improvements upon property benefited thereby. It seems to me that such charges as previously described actually are nothing else than special assessments, for the levy of which statu- tory authority must be found. See In re Petition of City of Phila- delphia (1940) 340 lea.. 17, 16 A. ( d 3 . In statutory proceedings for e levy of special assessments for the construction of water mains, it is commonly considered that one of the benefits which may be taken into consideration in making the assessment is the increased fire protection afforded to nearby property. Therefore, such property as has already been assessed for the construction of such mains has already paid for this benefit. On the other hand., property abutting on water mains and never assessed for their construction may be DORSEY, COLMAN, BARKER, SCOTT & BARBER The Village Council -2- January 8, 1951 assessed for their construction now, if such mains were financed by general obligation bonds and not by special assessment, as pro- vided in Minn. Statutes, sec. 432.22. However, this procedure is very likely not satisfactory, because 1) many mains were constructed by Thorpe Bros. (see 214 Minn. 26, 8 N. W. (2d) 321), and the Village probably could not assess the cost of these mains, 2) hearings would have to be held under the procedure required by section 432.22, and 3) the resulting charge would be permanently fixed as to amount and number of installments. There does not seem to be any other assessment procedure which would be applicable to the situation described above. If one attempts to regard the charge to non -users as being in the nature not of an assessment, but of a water rental charge, the question arises whether non -users may be billed because water is kept constantly available to them for use in the event of a fire. The nearest case in point I have found in this state is Gordon & Ferguson v. Doran (1907) 100 Minn. 313, 111 N. W. 152, from v�ich it appears that a person not connected to the water system may not be made liable to pay for the value to him of the water system as a protection against fire, the court saying that "so long as water supplied for protection against fire is a purely public service, under the control and management of municipal authorities generally and under the fire department specifically, no direct charge to in- dividuals is proper.it Such a-charge as the Village proposes to make must therefore be illegal. The Pennsylvania court dealt with a similar problem in the Pennsylvania case cited above, and held that "annual rentals" for the use of sewers, imposed on non - users, were not rents at all, but a tax. while the tax was illegal because it exceeded constitutional limitations, it is apparent from the opinion that the tax would have been held invalid because it was a form of special assessment unauthorized by law. Colley v. Village of Engle- wood (1917) 71 N.E. (2d) 521, an Ohio case, sustains such a charge, and cannot be reconciled with the law of Minnesota. In this state of the law, the best idea would appear to be for the Village to lower the water rates to users, and include in the annual Village levy an amount to be paid to the Fire Department Fund, for fire protection, when collected, this amount could then be paid by the fire department to the Waterworks Department, in pay- ment for hydrant rental and water furnished by the latter for the extinguishment of fires. A fire protection levy outside the maxi- mum 20 -mill rate is authorized only in forest areas (Minn. Statutes, DORSEY; COLMAN, BARKER, SCOTT & BARBER The Village Council -3- January 8, 1951 sec. 412.251 (9), and could not be made by the Village of Edina. It may be argued that hydrants are not generally available for fire protection in all parts.of the Village, but all property in the Village is better protected by the existence in some parts of the Village of a water system with hydrants. See Village of Grand Ridge v. Hayes. (1915) 271 Ill. 431,. 111 N. E. 289, and McCoy v. City of Sistersville (1938) 199 S.;E. 260, a West Virginia case. Less appealing al ernatives are 1) to pass an ordinance as authorized by Minn. Statutes, section 412.221 (31), requiring owners of property abutting on or adjacent to any street in which water and sewer mains have been laid to install a toilet in any dwelling or commercial establishment upon such property and connect it with the sewer and water mains, or 2) to establish higher connection charges to take effect after a date to be determined, with the purpose in mind of thereby compelling persons to connect with the water system. This and the preceding alternative would of course be ineffective as to.owners who could not be connected. The second question on which an opinion was requested is whether owners of garbage disposalls (electric pigs) which discharge waste matter.into the sewer system of the Village maybe compelled to pay an extra monthly charge for sewer service. It is apparently the feeling that such owners receive more benefit from the system than other users, who have their garbage picked up by persons em- ployed by the Village, and are charged for such garbage pick -up. I think that there is no objection to making such a charge, the pro- visions of Minnesota Statutes, section 443.09 being such that a Village which has installed a.sewer system has authority to establish, by ordinance, just and equitable rates tO users, which shall be 'tas nearly as possible, equitable and in proportion to the service ren- dered and shall take into consideration the quantity of sewage pro- duced and its concentration, . . . pollution qualities in general, and the cost of its disposal . . . In case of arrangements with other municipalities, districts, or private parties.for the supplying of sewers, aforesaid, such rates, charges or rentals may also be levied the same as in independent operations.ft J'N!,V :bg very truly, P. b'VINDHORST January "3, 1951 J Mr. John W.

'Ford Bell � 52�4 Oaklmn Avenue Minneapolis 10, , - Minnesota � Dear Sir s Your KW 9th letter,,addressed to Mayor Erickson, has been referred to me for reply. The recent. rapid growth of our Village has presented mangy problems, and an adequate water supply is.considered by the Council to be one-of the most important. We are glad to be able to inform.you that the Council has been aware of the increasing need for now capital equipment for the Village Water Department and that, as the first step toward insuring a more adequate water supply, . construction will go forward this year on a new 5000000 gallon water tank and tower. ,Studies are now under way for a new pump to .serve the area West of the Beltline, and for other pumps to serve the developing areas South of 56th Street and thus alleviate the water shortage in the Northern part of the Village. It is' hoped that 1953 will see the end of the present sprinkling restrictions. j Yours very. truly, VIUACR OF EDINA � Deputy Village Clerk gsa 4 E.FLOYD BELL , FOSHAY TOWER MINNEAPOLIS 2 May 9, 1952 My dear Mayor Erickson: The perennial notice restricting lawn sprinkling in the Village of Edina to alternate days indicates once more that nothing worthwhile has been done to improve the water supply during the past year. This condition hasprevailed for some twenty years now but during the same period the Village of Edina has spent hundreds of thousands of dollars for schools even though an adequate water supply would not cost a tenth as much. Our taxes are increasing at a disturbing rate and in addition we pay a substantial sum for water consumed but still we have no water on alternate days for lawn watering. Of all the municipalities in the State of Minnesota, Edina should be the last one to have an insufficient water supply. There are two basic reasons for this. 1. The people in Edina comprise a remarkably homogeneous population in the middle and higher income levels. It seems incongruous to deny them an adequate supply of water. 2. Water is so readily available in Edina. It is essentially that of providing sufficient wells and pumps. There is no need for expensive filtration and treatment plants. . Some constructive leadership by yourself as the elected ad- ministrative head of the Village of Edina, and by the members of the council, toward an improved water supply would most certainly be appreciated by the people. There seems to be no group of citizens actively promoting a better water supply, as contrasted to the several organizations constantly agitating for the schools. Consequently there is an open opportunity for you and the members of the council to improve the situation. The reference to the large sums of money spent on schools was made simply to show that the people will approve expenditures that are convincingly presented. It is not suggested or intended that school appropriations be reduced and the corresponding E.FLOYD BELL F O S H A Y TOWER MINNEAPOLIS 2 - 2 - amount be assigned to the water department. Instead the financial needs of the water department to provide good service should be determined and the people informed. They will respond with approval since in this instance they will receive vastly better service for a relatively modest expenditure. Now is the time to start a program leading to an improved water. supply for the Village of Edina and to avoid a continuation of the humiliating sprinkling restriction in 1953.

Street Edina, Minnesota Gentlemen: Having inspected your water storage tank, tower and frost box located at Vilest 50th. Street and Woodale Avenue and studied the specifications covering the cleaning and painting of this structure. Our alternate proposal enclosed on proper form furnished with specifications in accordance with general conditions, contract and specifications. We will sandblast the entire structure as follows. All surfaces where loose paint and rust prevail will be sandblasted down to bare metal and all other surfaces will be sandblasted lightly to etch the surface assuring the best possible bond for paint. The supe- riority of a sandblasted surface is a recognised fact both by Govern- ment and private business. Sandblasting can reach into crevices and seams and around rivet heads, where other types of cleaning tools fail. Painting will be done as per specifications using Rustoleum Rust Preventive Coating. We propose to paint the entire structure exclud- ing the frost box with #769 Rustoleum rust preventive damp - proof, primer by brushing. Over which we will apply one intermediate and one finish coat of #470 Rustoleum high lustre aluminum by spray method. On the frost box will be applied one coat of #2764 Rustoleum Eggshell White cut with 15% #540 thinning oil for deep penetration by brushing, over which we will apply one coat of #470 aluminum.by spray method. On completion of this work we will furnish a five (5) year guarantee covering'workmanship and materials used. Under conditions of specifications we are submitting the following list of owners of similar structures on which we have completed this type of work in the last twelve (12) months. .WaAter CLEANING Sexvice SANDBLASTING & SHOTBLASTING INDUSTRIAL PARTS, MACHINERY - BUILDINGS FIELD & SHOP 2843 - 20th AVE.
