(8) Manage Challenges and Create Opportunities:

Commissioner Wolf stated it was his understanding from a previous presentation to the Board that Scott
County does not use eminent domain. Commissioner Beard asked for clarification of the project and the need
for eminent domain. Commissioner Wagner expressed his opinion that the term quick term gives a negative
perception.
Deputy County Administrator/Community Services Director Lezlie Vermillion provided a brief history of the
use of eminent domain by Scott County to move projects forward. Ms. Vermillion described this trail project,
noting that it is a federal project and if the property is not acquired, the federal funding will be in jeopardy. Ms.
Vermillion clarified this request is for strip takings and not total takings. The ongoing negotiation process was
also reviewed. Ms. Vermillion added the wording of eminent domain or quick take is taken from the State
Statute.
Commissioner Ulrich requested that due to the sensitivity of eminent domain, future agenda items
regarding eminent domain be on the regular agenda instead of the consent agenda and that maps be
provided.
In response to Commissioner Beards question, Ms. Vermillion stated tabling action on this request for two
weeks to provide more information to the Commissioners will not delay the project.
Commissioner Beard moved, seconded by Commissioner Ulrich to table the request to adopt Resolution
No. 2016-183; Certifying Final Approved Appraisal of Value for Certain Land Acquisitions and Authorizing
acquisition by Expedited (Quick Take) Eminent Domain Proceedings for the construction of a Trail Along
County Highway 78 and County Highway 80 Located in the City of Shakopee until November 15, 2016.
County Administrator Gary Shelton reiterated the Board has approved numerous strip takings by eminent
domain on the consent agenda over the past two years. However, by the Boards direction, using eminent
domain to take peoples homes has been avoided.
The motion carried unanimously.
(9) Emphasize Excellence in Customer Service:

with the problems surrounding addiction and wanted to establish a Treatment Court. They believed that the
best interests of the citizens of Scott County would be served through this program.
Technical Resource Management, LLC dba Cordant Forensic Solutions (Norchem Labs) will continue to
provide drug testing services for Community Corrections, the County Jail, and Health and Human Services.
The majority of the costs for drug testing services in Community Corrections is paid for by the participant
through fees collected by the vendor. The following are budget estimates for these services:
Community Corrections
County Jail
Social Services
Total Estimate
$ 74,000
$ 1,000

The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2016-186; authorizing entering into an Agreement
with SRF Consulting Group, Inc. for professional consulting services for the 2040 Comprehensive Plan Travel
Demand Modeling.
Scott County and its six metropolitan area communities are required to update their Comprehensive Plans,
including the transportation element, by December 31, 2018 per the Metropolitan Land Planning Act.
Communities are required to develop forecasted 2040 traffic volumes as a part of their Transportation Plans.
The Scott County Association for Leadership and Efficiency (SCALE) Technical Team has agreed to and
recommended a joint effort for travel demand modeling consultant services. This collaborative, coordinated
effort will provide a better product and use of resources. There are three main advantages for a joint effort:
interconnected transportation system, cost savings, and reduced review period. A joint effort will ensure
consistency in modeling practices for overall roadway system connectivity and regional coordination of land
use and road network assumptions. The outcome will be a unified, countywide transportation plan. Cost
savings will occur with the County contracting for a base price for services and City services added to the
Contract with overlap in work items. Review period time will be reduced because a joint effort will incorporate
adjacent community land use and roadway planning impacts into the forecast resulting in coordination during
the plan process rather than during a review period.
The County and Cities do not own the software to operate the model, so a consultant will be hired to perform
the services. SRF Consulting Group, Inc. has expertise in the Metropolitan Councils required Activity Based
Model approach and has previously performed work on the Scott County 2040 Transportation Model and Scott
County 2030 Comprehensive Plan. This expertise and experience from previous work provides a cost savings
to the County and Cities.
Fiscal Impact:
Proposed County share is not to exceed $75,017. The 2016-2018 Planning Assistance Grant from the
Metropolitan Council will be used to pay for approximately 80 percent of this item. The total Grant is $84,000
and Metropolitan Council issues 50 percent up front and 50 percent after the Plan is found complete. The
remaining County cost will come from the Highway Department operating budget for consulting services. Cost
participation breakdown for the Cities is in the table below. Cost items for cities are for the extra consultant
work to provide model results for the local transportation network in each city.

Backfill a Vacant Position

The purpose of this Request for Board Action is to adopt Resolution No. 2016-190 authorizing a Fourth
Amendment to the Agreement with Loffler Companies, Inc. for a Senior Systems Engineer to backfill a vacant
position until a permanent full-time equivalent (FTE) can be hired.
On January 20, 2015, the Board authorized entering into an Agreement with Clear North Technologies (now
Loffler Companies, Inc.) to provide a contracted Engineer assigned to the Information Technology (IT)
Infrastructure Team to assist with projects, maintenance, and system administration as required through June
30, 2015 for an amount not to exceed $50,000. The intent was to back-fill a vacant position with an advanced
skill-set that was not available internally. The Board has since approved three Amendments extending the
contract term through October 31, 2016 at a total not to exceed amount of $175,000. These costs were funded
by the savings from vacant Information Technology positions.
This contracted Engineer contributed to the completion of the following projects in support of the transformation
of the IT operations in 2015 and 2016:
Provisioning of new servers for various IT and business unit projects.

Participated in the Office 365 migration project. (This was a larger amount of time than anticipated.)
Made a considerable contribution to the Skype for Business VOIP project.
Managed, monitored, and optimized server and storage infrastructure.
The County Board approved hiring a permanent FTE for 2016 utilizing contracted dollars to provide a position
5 days a week versus 2-3 days per week. The permanent FTE will replace this contracted Engineer. When
we asked for the Second Amendment in January 2016, we anticipated moving forward with the hiring process
immediately. It was then decided to focus our efforts on recruiting and hiring for the open IT Manager position
of which this position will be a direct report. Since the arrival of the new IT Manager, we have been through
two separate recruiting cycles without success in finding a qualified permanent FTE candidate to hire.
At this time, we recommend amending the existing Agreement with Loffler Companies to extend through
December 31, 2017, giving the County additional time to onboard a permanent FTE for the role. We anticipate
that we will continue to utilize the current Loffler contractor as a technical expert to advise us and fill in skill
gaps as needed in 2017.
During the interim period, the contracted Engineer will continue with existing and new projects as follows:
Ensure stable infrastructure services through monitoring and proactive administration to prevent
problems before they affect County systems.
Provision servers required to complete the server standardization project.
Provide services in support of future IT Transformation projects as they arise
Provided services in support of Capital Improvement Program (CIP) or other improvement projects
identified by the County business units
Video Camera Upgrade project
The anticipated additional cost for extending this Agreement through December 31, 2017 is estimated at
$75,000 with the amended Contract not to exceed amount of $250,000.
Fiscal Impact:
The additional 2016 estimated amount of $25,000 is included in the 2016 IT Operating Budget through the
salary savings of vacant positions. We have included $50,000 for extended consulting services in the 2017
Operating Budget for consultants.

RESOLUTION NO. 2016-190; AUTHORIZING A FOURTH AMENDMENT TO THE AGREEMENT

WITH LOFFLLER COMPANIES, INC. FOR A SENIOR SYSTEMS ENGINEER TO BACKFILL A
VACATED POSITION FOR NOVEMBER 1, 2016 THOUGH DECEMBER 31, 2017
WHEREAS, Scott County finds the flexibility, efficiency, and cost effectiveness of using a temporary
Senior Systems Engineer to perform the systems maintenance and administration functions to be beneficial
until an internal full-time equivalent (FTE) can be on boarded; and
WHEREAS, the services of a Senior Systems Engineer are required to maintain and administer the
Countys server infrastructure; and
WHEREAS, Scott County needs to enter into an Amendment with Loffler Companies, Inc. to retain the
services of a Senior Systems Engineer; and
WHEREAS the Senior Systems Engineer services costs for November 1, 2016 through December 31,
2017, are estimated at an amount not to exceed $75,000; and
WHEREAS, the services will be funded from the Information Technology operating budget.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Board of Commissioners in and for the County of Scott,
Minnesota, hereby authorizes the Chairperson of the Board to enter into an Amendment with Loffler, Inc., for
Senior System Engineer services for November 1, 2016 through December 31, 2017 subject to approval by the
County Attorneys Office as to form.

Agreement With Hennepin County and the Hennepin County Medical

The purpose of this agenda item is to adopt Resolution No. 2016-196; authorizing entering into a new
Agreement effective on January 1, 2017 with Hennepin County and the Hennepin County Medical Examiners
Office for the provision of morgue and Medical Examiner/Coroner services.
Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 390, requires counties to have a system or process for receiving, storing, and
releasing all dead bodies. Each county must have a coroner or medical examiner appointed by the County
Board and the County Board is responsible for the expenses of the medical examiner, assistants, investigators,
and other medical specialists.
On November 27, 2001, Scott County and seven other Counties (Dakota, Carver, Chisago, Fillmore, Freeborn,
Goodhue and Houston) established a Joint Powers for Morgue and Medical Examiner services. This Joint
Powers Entity (the MRMEO), with Dakota County as the lead agency and managed by Dr. Lindsey Thomas,
provided professional, reliable, and effective medical examiner services for Scott County through December
31, 2012.
Due to issues with the physical plant, starting in 2008 the MRMEO Joint Powers group began assessing
various options relative to correcting these deficiencies. The group analyzed the potential to remodel and
upgrade the existing facility, construct a new facility, contract with a different county, and/or merge the current
operation with an existing medical examiners office.
On July 10, 2012 the Scott County Board authorized entering into a Cooperative Services Agreement with
Hennepin County and the Hennepin County Medical Examiners office to provide Morgue and Medical
Examiner/Coroner services for Scott County in association with Dakota County. That Agreement was for the
period starting January 1, 2013 and running through December 31, 2016 and provided:
A taxpayer contribution based on a straight percentage increase formula (2%) based on a cost/capital
methodology; and
That Scott County would pay Dakota County and Dakota County the pay Hennepin County for the
services being provided; and
That there would be a pass-through agreement for revenue from referral counties.
At the time, the Board understood and recognized that during this three-year Agreement each of the Counties
involved would look at the adequacy of the facilities, provision of service, and potential for extending and
modifying the Agreement with an eye toward entering into a long term agreement for the provisions of these
services.
Over the past three years, Hennepin County and the Medical Examiners Office has worked collaboratively with
Scott and Dakota Counties in planning for a longer term Cooperative Agreement and new facility to service the
three Counties. The evaluation of the current facility indicates:
The current facility already at capacity by current standards.
There are no feasible options to alter current facility to handle even nominal population growth.
The current location a detriment to scene response, customer service, partners, and families.
Throughout this process the strategic focus of the Medical Examiner and his staff has been long-range
planning for providing services to Hennepin, Dakota, and Scott Counties in an effective and efficient manner.
Through the process the staffs have developed a draft long-term (30 year) Agreement that would provide:
A direct Agreement between Hennepin and Scott County.
A taxpayer contribution based on volume-driven metrics (total cases, total autopsies, scene visits) with
a recalculation every 4 years.
Pass-through payments to Scott County which will include:
Cremation approval fees
Donor room rental fees
Referral payment revenue
A clearly defined capital contribution for the new Regional Medical Examiner facility.
A clearly defined process for ongoing capital contributions to adequately maintain the facility and
services being provided.
In a workshop setting on November 1, 2016 the Board heard from Dr. Andrew Baker (the Hennepin County
Medical Examiner), reviewed and discussed the need for a new facility, the provisions for a new Agreement,
and expressed support for entering into a new Agreement with Hennepin County and the Hennepin County
Medical Examiners Office based upon:
The fact that Scott County has had a solid partnership and excellent service with/from the Hennepin
County Medical Examiners Office; and
That the County has had an ongoing and firm commitment from the Hennepin County Board of
Commissioners and Administration; and,
That this new Agreement will resolve the provision of this core function of government (long term)
through:
o
The provision of exceptional services HCME Office has been and will continue to be a center
of excellence;
In an efficient and effective manner regionalization of services is by far the most effective
delivery system for these services;
That is cost appropriate the cooperative Agreement spreads cost across partner agencies in a
very equitable manner based upon measurable metrics.
Staff would recommend that the County Board adopt Resolution No. 2016-196 authorizing entering into a new
long-term (30 year) Agreement with Hennepin County and the Hennepin County Medical Examiners Office for
these services.
Fiscal Impact:
Based upon the metrics, the Scott County taxpayer contribution through the first four years of the Agreement
will be 5% $314,978.00 in 2017 which is included in the proposed budget. Scott Countys capital
contribution will be based on the metrics percentage calculation in the calendar year that construction occurs
multiplied by the total project expense, less the cost of land.

AGREEMENT WITH HENNEPIN COUNTY AND THE HENNEPIN COUNTY MEDICAL
EXAMINERS OFFICE FOR MORGUE AND MEDICAL EXAMINER SERVICES
WHEREAS, Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 390, requires counties to have a system or process

WHEREAS, each county must have a coroner or medical examiner appointed by the County
Board and the County Board is responsible for the expenses of the medical examiner, assistants,
investigators, and other medical specialists; and
WHEREAS, on July 10, 2012, the Scott County Board of Commissioners authorized entering
into a three-year Cooperative Agreement with Hennepin County and the Hennepin County Medical
Examiners Office for the provision of these services; and
WHEREAS, Scott County has had a solid partnership and excellent service with/from the
Hennepin County Medical Examiners Office; and
WHEREAS, Hennepin County and the Medical Examiners Office has worked collaboratively
with Scott and Dakota Counties in planning for a longer term Cooperative Agreement and new facility
to service the three counties into the future: and
WHEREAS, this process has concluded in the development of a long-term (30 year)
Agreement that would provide services to Hennepin, Dakota, and Scott Counties in an effective and
efficient manner; and
WHEREAS, on November 1, 2016, the Board of Commissioners heard from Dr. Andrew Baker
(the Hennepin County Medical Examiner), reviewed and discussed the need for a new facility, and
discussed the provisions for a new Agreement; and
WHEREAS, the Agreement would provide a taxpayer contribution based on volume-driven
metrics (total cases, total autopsies, scene visits) with a recalculation every 4 years, pass-through
payments to Scott County for certain revenues, a clearly defined capital contribution for the new
Regional Medical Examiner Facility, and a clearly defined process for ongoing capital contributions to
adequately maintain the facility and services being provided; and
WHEREAS, the Scott County Board of Commissioners believes that it is in the best interests of
the citizens of Scott County to work cooperatively with Hennepin County and the Hennepin County
Medical Examiners Office.

NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Board of Commissioners in and for Scott

County, Minnesota, that the County Administrator and Chair of the County Board are authorized to
enter into an Agreement with Hennepin County and the Hennepin County Medical Examiners Offices
for the provision of services pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 390.
BE IT FINALLY RESOLVED, that the Administrator and County staff are directed to work
cooperatively with Hennepin and any other participating counties to effect any necessary changes so

The purpose of this agenda item is to remove from the Table and adopt Resolution No. 2016-183; certifying
final approved appraisal of value for certain land acquisitions and authorizing acquisition by expedited (Quick
Take) eminent domain proceedings associated with the construction of a trail along County Highway (CH) 78
and CH 79 located in the City of Shakopee.
This agenda item was brought to the Board on November 1, 2016 and was tabled for further information.
This Resolution authorizes eminent domain proceedings, requests the County Attorney to initiate proceedings,
and certifies the final approved appraisal of value and other damages for real property, land acquisition, and
temporary construction easements for expedited (Quick Take) condemnation.
The County has programmed a project to construct a trail along CH 78 and CH 79 in the Transportation
Improvement Program (TIP) 2016 2025 to commence construction in 2017. The project will construct a
10-foot wide trail along the northern side of CH 78 and the eastern side of CH 79. This project will complete a
separated trail segment for the Scott West Regional Trail, which runs between the Minnesota River and Cleary
Lake Regional Park. This trail project has received federal funding for both construction and right-of-way
through the 2013 Regional Solicitation. The award of the federal funding was supported by the need to
complete this gap in the trail segment to provide a safe school route for the neighborhoods that have
developed to the east and to connect the proposed athletic complex at CH79 and CH78 to the high school site.
The project requires right-of-way on eight (8) parcels within its project limits. The County has settled six (6)
partial acquisitions by negotiation. Presently, two (2) parcels have not been settled by the execution and
delivery of settlement documents, which need to be acquired for the project. The request to authorize eminent
domain is necessary to support the project schedule to meet federal funding requirements to begin
construction of the project in state fiscal year 2017 (June 30, 2017). To ensure meeting the requirements for
federal funding, right of way title and possession and federal right of way review must be completed by April 1,
2017.
The parcels are referenced by Parcel No. and Exhibit, as follows:
Parcel No.

The certified values were provided to the County Board previously under a confidential memorandum in
support of the Board approval of an estimate of just compensation for these parcels by Agenda Item #6.3 at its
July 19, 2016 Board meeting. That information is being provided again via a confidential memo. The County
Attorney advises that state law requires that this information remains private protected data at this point in the
acquisition process.
This project is in the Transportation Improvement Program (TIP) 2016 2025 as Project CP 79-11 and is
programmed for construction in 2017. Federal funding has been secured totaling $490,714 for this trail project
for right-of-way (2016) and construction (2017) which will cover 80 percent of both of these costs on the
project. The local match is 20 percent.

WHEREAS, the project is in the Transportation Improvement Plan (TIP) 2016-2025 as Project
CP 79-11 to commence construction in 2017; and
WHEREAS, the project was competitively awarded Federal Funds by the region requiring a title
possession date prior to April 1, 2017 to utilize the funds; and
WHEREAS, the project requires the acquisition of right-of-way from eight (8) parcels by partial
acquisitions; and
WHEREAS, Scott County has appointed independent appraisers and provided agency approval of just
compensation or otherwise has determined the fair market value for an estimate of just compensation on these
parcels; and
WHEREAS, the County Engineer has been unsuccessful by negotiation in acquiring the right-of-way
needed on two (2) parcels, which is necessary to proceed by condemnation proceedings to further this project;
and
WHEREAS, it is necessary to acquire title and possession on these outstanding two (2) parcels prior to
or by about February 15, 2017 to support a planned commencement of a construction schedule for the
construction season of 2017.

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, by the Board of Commissioners in and for the County of Scott,
Minnesota, that the Chairperson of the Board, certifies that its final approved appraisal of value and other
damages of the real property and easements as described in Exhibits, summarized as follows:

The purpose of this agenda item is to conduct a Public Hearing and adopt Resolution No. 2016-191; approving
the 2017 levy and budget for the Scott Watershed Management Organization (WMO) Special Taxing District.
A levy of $1,130,116 is requested for the Scott WMO funding pursuant to Minn. Stat. 103B.241. The
requested levy is a $38,216 (3.5%) increase from 2016. The increase for the 2016 levy was also 3.5%. The
2015 levy increase was 5% while the previous five years the highest change was an increase of 0.5% with the
other years having a zero levy increase or a decrease. The proposed 2017 increase changes the net payable
for the average market value residence from $33.82 to $34.25, an increase of $0.44.
The 2017 budget is presented in the attached table. The budget will be reviewed by staff at the November 15,
2016 Board meeting, as part of the Public Hearing.
The Watershed Planning Commission reviewed the final levy and budget at their October 24, 2016 meeting
