Re: Actions requested by Council
This memo is to update the Council of actions requested by the Council.
We have ordered additional speed limit, stop and children at play signs for Heritage
Hills. These can take up to a couple months until installation depending, on
availability of signs and availability of installation crews.
2. We have requested the speed and traffic counters from Mn/DOT. They will be
. available for Otsego's use in two to three weeks.
We have a demo "speed wagon" for the City of Otsego's use for I week starting
Friday, September 20th . Dave Chase and I will set it up in Heritage Hills starting
Friday morning. Brochures have been included if the City is interested in purchasing
a trailer for continued use.

Neighborhoods, school zones,
construction sites and danger-
ous roads could use a little help in
promoting compliance with the speed
limit. But officers can't be everywhere
at once. That's why we offer SMART, a
gentle reminder to slow down.
Around -the- Clock Duty
With SMART on the payroll, you have
a virtual officer on duty around-the-
clock, with no overtime pay.
SMART, which stands for Speed
Monitoring Awareness Radar Trailer is
just that: a portable, self-contained
speed display unit that is towed to sites
with speed -related problems.
After quick and easy set up—less than
5 n-Linutes—SMART is left on the road-
side to display speeds of oncoming
vehicles. Brake lights are the usual
response. Features include:
Kustom SMART Radar—this
specially designed radar is
mounted inside the locked trailer
to clock speeds.
Amber LED (Light Emitting
Diode) Display —motorists see
their speeds on this highly -visible
LED display. The speed limit sign
above the display reminds
motorists to pay attention and ease
up on the gas pedal.
Violator Alert —when a preset
speed is exceeded, the LEDs flash
and change to red, sending a "This
means YOU" message, offered only
on Model I. The amber violator alert is
available on other models.
Community Relations
Designed as a public relations tool,
SMART generates a positive response
from the community. Citizens notice
when you take action against speed -
related problems in their neighbor-
hoods, school zones, and construction
areas.
11YOUR SPEEDJ�
With SMART on duty,
officers have more time
to deal with other
important issues.
Citizens see you
responding to their
concerns. They feel
safer, which is what
voluntary
compliance with the
speed limit is all
about: safety.
Kustom-Built Versatility
Because needs vary from one agency to
another, we offer three models. Each
can be purchased with options,
including:
SMARTStat —the most versatile
Windows -compatible statistics
computer for gathering traffic data.
Traffic Enforcement or Directional
Radar —certified traffic
enforcement radar is available as
well as directional radar units for
approaching targets only.
* Motion Alarm --deters vandals.
• Over -speed Blanking --display
turns off if pre-set speed is
exceeded.
• For More Options —refer to
specifications page located on the
back.
Public Acceptance
We know of at least one officer who
returned to the SMART trailer and
found a note taped to it reading:
"Please bring this to my neighbor-
hood." SMART has become so popular
that many agencies have waiting lists
for neighborhoods that want it.
Whether used to promote awareness at
the start of a school year, support a
temporary speed reduction site for
road crews, or to simply promote good
will, put SMART on your payroll.

Re: High Pressure Sodium Lights vs. Metal Halide
Dear Honorable Mayor and City Council:
In response to Mr. Fischer's letter to the Council with regard to metal halide (MH) fixtures, I
thought you should be aware of some information on MH and high pressure sodium (HPS)
lighting fixtures.
Although MH, based on most opinions, offers a better color rendition as opposed to HPS, MH
does have some significant deficiencies compared to HPS. The two main factors for most
municipalities in the United States when detennining a specific light source is longevity and
energy efficiency, both are related to maintenance and operation budgets. MH is lacking in
1=
many categories compared to HPS.
Lamp Life - HPS (all wattage's) 24,000 hrs warranty
- MH 90 (250 watt or less) 10,000 hrs warranty
requires lamps to be changed 2.4 times more often.
Efficiency - HPS 104 lumens per watt
- MH 90 lumens per watt
requires light structures to be spaced closer to meet Illumination Engineers
Society (IES).
Lumcn - HPS maintains 90% through life of lamp
Depreciation - MH maintains 85% through life of lamp
again requires closer spacing to meet IES guidelines.
Bulb Cost - MH bulbs cost about 15% more than HPS bulbs.
Due to the sub -standard efficiency and longevity, I do not see any logic to pursuit adopting MH
I
as a standard lighting source. There has been some developments in lighting technology with

LIGHTING DESIGN OTSEGO QUADAY ST. NE AND 91ST ST. NE.
The lighting design was completed in compliance with the roadway lighting
guidelines for illumination as stated by AASHTO for a local commercial roadway. These
guidelines are recognized by the industry as being acceptable to use in the design of street
lighting systems.
Based on the AASHTO guidelines and the street light appearance as illustrated in the
proposal (see attachments), a design was created. Taking into account the desired
appearance, the cost limitations and the need to adequately illuminate the roadway, a
spacing was determined. This spacing was analyzed to be approximately 70' soldiered
down the roadway with a combination of 15' ornamental lights (about 29ea), and 30'
standard street lights (about l2ea). This spacing allowed the desired look to take
precedence, and also comply with the uniformity guidelines by incorporating the 30'
lights as needed.
A desire was expressed to explore the option of adding outlets to the ornamental poles.
There is an additional construction cost and a more extensive maintenance program that
will be associated with this. However, this is included in the current plan. Outlets
provide for a convenient method of illuminated theme lighting (i.e. Christmas &
Festival).
To comply with the National Electric Code these outlets are required to have Ground
Fault Interrupters (GFI) and in service weather proof covers. These requirements are
necessary for public safety, but also present some complications with regard to
maintenance. GFI outlets are basically required where wet condition may exist. These
outlets gauge the amount of current output from the outlet opposed to the amount of
current returning. The slightest difference in the currents will trigger the interrupter thus
disconnecting the circuit. The outlet will than have to be reset (a simple button push).
This does happen frequently during snow and rain'. Outlet are proposed to be mounted at
101.
Cost Reduction Strategies
- Eliminating the outlets may save about $12,000. The cabinet, conduit raceway, and
ornamental poles can be constructed to accommodate outlets in the future.
- Eliminating decorative base may save about $20,000. This base adds a decorative
flared look to the bottom of the ornamental pole as opposed to a straight pole
attaching to the pole foundation.
- Eliminating decorative base and outlets may save about $32,000.
- Design for adding more 301 poles and reducing the number of ornamental poles.
No cost analysis was completed with this. There is about a $1,000 difference in
material costs between the two poles.

The Mongoose Architectural Area
Lighting luminaire combines
architectural style with advanced
optical systems to provide superior
lighting solutions for a wide varie� of
applications. Solving the problem of
lighting parking lots, entrance
roadways and building facades has
become easier by using one type of
fixture for all areas.
The Mongoose fixture provides lighting
dist�buticins including forward throw,
square symmetric, asymmetric, and
wide and narrow floodlight patterns.
The architectural styling provides an
aesthetic aspect that easily blends Mth
diverse designs and concepts.
Installaton and maintenance are not
issues with the fixture. Ore person can
easily install the Mongoose fixture to a
variety of pole styles. And lamp
replacement is accomplished via a tool.
less door entry. It is UL Listed for
Suitable for Wet Locations.
Why compromise when you
can have it all in one fixture
platform?
IDO years of leading technology
have been brought together to
create the most versatile outdoor
lighting product ever invented.
The new mongoose series
luminaires have been designed to
overcome the diverse challenges
of today's outdoor lighting.
Maximum energy efficiency
State of the art materials coupled
with advanced optical designs
ensure opbmal performance for
any application, Large area
lighting, forward throw, flood
lighting, roadway, offset, sports,
and even highmast lighting are
optimized with Mongoose
luminaires. Spacings of up to ten
times the mounting height are
possible with the advanced optical
systems available.
Optimal light control
Segmented or parabolic
hydroformed opbcal systems put
the light where you want it. With
the extensive optical choices
available, spill light is eliminated
and uniformity in the laroet area is
maximized. Light the ground not
the sky. If dark skies are a concern,
the flat glass and clear drop glass
options eliminate up -light while
providing maximum spacings.
Unparalleled versatility
Four mounting arms, multiple
mounting configurations, and
field adjumbility between 0' and
45* give the designer ultimate
application freedom. Use the
architectural arm for multiple
fixture applications and wall
mounting. The horizontal arm
allows retrofit to standard davit
arms, and the vertical tenon arm
provides unidirectional aiming of
up to four fixtures for perimeter
applications, Finally the trunion
mount presents all the flexibility
found in traditional floodlights,
giving the designer the option of
mounting up to twelve fixtures on
a lowering device.
A pioneering concept in
maintenance
One of the greatest problems
facing maintenance personnel is
dealing with all the replacement
parts needed for the various
lighting equipment used on
outdoor projects. With the eight
optical choices and four arms, the
Mongoose can be used for any
outdoor lighting application.
However, when it comes to
maintenance, all systems are
interchangeable. All electrical
components can be replaced in
less than one minute without the
use of tools.
Style
21st century design allows big
box performance in a compact
design. Extensive research in the
latest trends in industrial des;ign
led to the rounded shapes.
Revolutionary forward
throw optics
The unique design of the
Mongoose forward throw
reflector allows significantly
enhanced performance over
traditional des;igns. The vertical
lamp orientation minimizes hot
spots while allowing maximum
spacing. A revolutionary stepped
reflector virtually eliminates spill
light behind the pole.
Square area lighting optics
A generous optical chamber in
the Mongoose luminaire series
permits the use of vertical lamp
orientation, maximizing spacing
with optimum uniformity, The
unique square photometric
pattern ensures light travels
between poles reducing dark
areas common to horizontal lamp
units.

Less traffic disruption
Increased maintenance crew safety.
Superior optical performance is only
half of the Mongoose story. At the
heart of the Mongoose series is a
dedication to reduction of long
term maintenance costs.
The first element of the lowest life
cycle cost solution is the use of the
highest grade components
available, Holophanes copper
wound ballasts use high grade
electrical steel which means lower
operating temperature and
consequently longer component
life. 90*C capacitors used in
Mongoose have a rated life of
60,000 hours, almost two and a
half times the life of the standard
100'C capacitors used in most
roadway luminaires. AJI Holophane
starters are encapsulated in a
polyester resin which protects the
electrical components from
mechanical and thermal shock.
The superior design and high grade
components ensure that
maintenance trips to the luminaire
will be minimized, However, the
attention to superior performance
moves beyond component design.
In the rare event that an electrical
Component does fail, the entire
electrical door can be replaced in
under one minute without the
need for tools. The Quick -Change
electrical door allows the
maintenance crew to replace only
the failed components and not the
entire fixture, consequently, saving
time and saving money. An added
benefit is that the doors on all
Mongoose luminaires are
interchangeable. This way the crew
does not need to know what type
of fixture in the field requires repair,
Cutoff or prismatic, narrow or wide,
offset or close -in can all be
maintained by simply replacing the

NIETAL HALIDE
Because NIH lamps erru'i light at many different
wavelengths, they provide good color rendering
They also provide better visibility of objects in
�he off -axis (peripheral) regions of our vision.
M
Lume.n levels and spectral color, if maintained,
allow the eye to see better in very dark -
conditions. It is the edges of the lighted
environment, where illuminance and luminance
levels are very low, that the benefit from NTH
becomes most apparent. This information is
based on recent independent studies.
MH lamps will dramatically shift in color duning
their I ife. Group relarriping is important in order
to maintain spectral output. The useful life of the.
lamp will be when the color shifts, and not the
rated lamp life.

wattage.
MH lamps are sensitive to burning positions.

Retrofitting of lamps into existing fixtures with a
burning position other than specified can
compromise lamp efficiency and produce a color
shift.

MH lamps operate at higher pressures and

Lamps are prone to non -passive failure - they

RE: Proposed Reliant Energy Franchise Renewal
Dear Council Members:
Enclosed please find proposed Franchise Agreements for Reliant Energy. The proposed
agreement is patterned after the model League of Cities Franchise. Two Agreements have
been proposed, a longer Agreement and a shorter form..
The Reliant Energy Franchise is not up for another year or two but they wish to proceed
to begin negotiation for a new franchise at this time. Myself and Mike Robertson met
with representatives of Reliant and they asked whether or not the City would consider
starting franchise negotiations early. We could not think of a reason why this would be
detrimental to the City, as long they were willing to enter into an Agreement patterned
after League of Cities models.
As discussed in other Franchise issues recently in front of the City Council, the majority
of issued contained in previous franchise agreements related to relocation of facilities,
use of right of way, and right way restoration etc. Those issues are now addressed in the
City's Right of Way ordinance which. was adopted in 1998, which I have enclosed with
this letter.
I have attached e-mailed versions that Reliant proposes as models. I have reviewed them
and have no large problem with the general content. City staff is requesting Council
authority to begin negotiations on a franchise renewal with Reliant Energy. A
representative of Reliant Energy will be available at the Council meeting on Monday to
make a presentation and answer any questions.
Letter to Otsego City Council
September 19, 2002
Page 2
It is my understanding that Reliant's goal is to complete a renewal of a franchise
agreement by the end of this year.
I will be available to answer questions from the Council regarding this matter at the City
Council meeting on Monday evening.
Very urs,
ew J. cArth

Re: Sludge Hauling Bids
We received three bids for hauling sludge from the
wastewater treatment plant and injecting it into a farm
field. An estimated amount of 228,000 gallons needs to
be hauled this fall. Hauling sludge will be a yearly
occurrence in the future. We have not had to haul
until now because we have plenty of storage capacity
for sludge.

R -E: Action Necessary to Terminate EDAAC
Dear Council Members:
U
ITEM 11.2
The EDAAC was established by the EDA. In the event that the City Council determines
that the EDAAC should be terminated, the enabling resolution should be repealed by
action of the EDA at a properly noticed EDA meeting. In the event that the EDA would
like to establish a Special Projects Task Force that should be done by a resolution which
would establish their authority, ability to seek staff assistance, and ability to spend EDA
fimds, if any such authority is granted.
Attached is a copy of EDA Resolution No. 93-54 establishing a mission statement and
code of ethics for the EDAAC.
If you have any further questions I will be available to discuss them at this evening's City
Council meeting.
