HISTORY & CONSIDERATIONS: Runoff will connect to approved permanent stormwater management outlined in CRWD Permit 20-013 Ford Site Redevelopment Stormwater Master Plan.

Block 1 (2.29 ac) was subdivided in early 2020 into lots 1 (1.53 ac) and 2 (0.76 ac). Both lots are designed for 85% impervious area in the Stormwater Master Plan.

RULE C: STORMWATER MANAGEMENT Standards  Proposed discharge rates for the 2-, 10-, and 100-year events shall not exceed existing rates.  Developments and redevelopments must reduce runoff volumes in the amount equivalent to an inch of runoff from the impervious areas of the site.  Stormwater must be pretreated before discharging to infiltration areas to maintain the long-term viability of the infiltration area.  Developments and redevelopments must incorporate effective non-point source pollution reduction BMPs to achieve 90% total suspended solid removal.

Findings 1. Stormwater runoff rate, water quality and volume retention were reviewed and approved under CRWD Permit #20-013 (Ford Site Stormwater Master Plan).

Therefore, the intent of this review is to verify compliance by comparing the amount of impervious surface approved during review of the Master Plan versus each subsequent private site development project.

Table 1. Approved vs. Proposed Impervious Area.

Approved Master Plan Site Development Block/Lot Impervious Area (ft2) Impervious Area (ft2) 1/2* 28,140 28,862

*Comprised of Block 1 Lot 2A (Permit 21-029; 16,088 ft2) and Block 1 Lot 2B (Permit 21-028; 12,774 ft2).

a. The proposed site new/reconstructed impervious area is greater than the impervious area approved in the master plan. b. Block 6, Lot 1 (Permit 21-009) is in the same drainage area (Northwest Biofiltration Basin B1) and has 5,625 ft2 less proposed impervious area than the approved master plan. c. The overall new/reconstructed impervious area draining to the Northwest Biofiltration Basin B1 is less than the impervious area approved in the master plan. d. No additional volume retention is required for this site-specific development.

W:\07 Programs\Permitting\2021\21-028, HB L2B1 B, Emma Norton\21-028 Permit Report_R1.doc Page 2 of 4

RULE D: FLOOD CONTROL Standards  Compensatory storage shall be provided for fill placed within the 100-year floodplain.  All habitable buildings, roads, and parking structures on or adjacent to a project site shall comply with District freeboard requirements.

Findings 1. There is no floodplain on the property according to FEMA. 2. All habitable buildings, roads, and parking structures on or adjacent to the project site comply with CRWD freeboard requirements.

RULE E: WETLAND MANAGEMENT Standard  Wetlands shall not be drained, filled (wholly or in part), excavated, or have sustaining hydrology impacted such that there will be a decrease in the inherent (existing) functions and values of the wetland.  A minimum buffer of 25 feet of permanent nonimpacted vegetative ground cover abutting and surrounding a wetland is required.

Findings 1. There are no known wetlands located on the property.

RULE F: EROSION AND SEDIMENT CONTROL Standards  A plan shall demonstrate that appropriate erosion and sediment control measures protect downstream water bodies from the effects of a land-disturbing activity.  Erosion Control Plans must adhere to the MPCA Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas Manual.

Findings 1. Erosion and sediment control measures are not consistent with best management practices, as demonstrated in the MPCA manual Protecting Water Quality in Urban Areas.

2. Adjacent properties are protected from sediment transport/deposition.

3. Wetlands, waterbodies and water conveyance systems are not protected from erosion/sediment transport/deposition.

4. Total disturbed area is 0.33 acres but is part of a larger development that exceeds one acre; an NPDES permit is required. A SWPPP has been submitted but is not sufficient.

RULE G: ILLICIT DISCHARGE AND CONNECTION Standard  Stormwater management and utility plans shall indicate all existing and proposed connections from developed and undeveloped lands for all water that drains to the District MS4.

W:\07 Programs\Permitting\2021\21-028, HB L2B1 B, Emma Norton\21-028 Permit Report_R1.doc Page 3 of 4

AR: Approve Partner Grants Annual Program (Schwantes)

Ms. Schwantes provided a review of the Partner Grants Annual Program. The District supports organizations who share in CRWD’s mission to protect, manage, and improve our water resources.

Expenses eligible for reimbursement include staff time and materials. Projects funded in 2022 must be completed with a final report submitted by December 31, 2022. Grants are funded on a reimbursement basis and liability insurance is required for all grantees. Partner Grants are given to community organizations, cities, schools, art organizations, and environmental or faith groups for clean water education and action projects serving residents within CRWD’s boundaries. Grant awards range from $1,000-$20,000.

Ms. Schwantes shared that staff will allocate the 2022 Partner Grant solicitation to a distribution list that includes previous grant recipients and organizations that represent new audiences for CRWD. The draft 2022 budget for Partner Grants is $145,000.

Last year, staff updated the promotion and evaluation process by integrating CRWD’s diversity and inclusion goals, updating the application form that includes improved questions that address CRWD’s priority audiences as outlined in the 2021 Watershed Management Plan and measuring project impacts.

Ms. Schwantes stated that staff is currently updating the BMP database which will further streamline the application, contracting and reporting process for grantees and staff. Staff will continue to request information on how partners will incorporate COVID-19 safety recommendations at the time of project execution.

Ms. Schwantes reviewed that staff will host a virtual information session for interested applicants to learn about eligibility and contracting requirements on October 8, 2021. Staff will also promote CRWD’s Watershed Steward Awards, Stewardship Grant Program and provide information on how to apply to the CAC in the promotion email.

The 2021 Communications and Community Committee Board appointments are Managers Murphy and Sullivan Janzen. The committee will assist in the Partner Grant review process. At the August 11, CAC meeting, members Nicole Soderholm, and Andrew Montain volunteered to serve in the 2022 Partner Grant review process with David Arbeit serving as an alternate. The committee will review applications and meet in person to select grant recipients in November for Board approval in December.

Vice President Texer shared two additional partners to add to the list. Manager Murphy inquired about past grant applications in the review process and how we are ensuring that grants are used accordingly.

Ms. Schwantes replied that CRWD is considering that in the review process. Ms. Bromelkamp added that the reporting deadline is not until the end of the calendar year and that some applications have come in earlier.

Manager Sullivan Janzen shared that Kate Mudge is no longer with the Hamline Midway Coalition and was replaced by Sarah O’Brien. Ms. Lilly asked to elaborate on the increased minimum to $5,000. Ms. Schwantes explained that the program has grown and with the number of requests and the amount of staff time, increasing the minimum will make the review process more efficient. Manager Sullivan Janzen suggested that smaller grants be combined. Ms. Schwantes explained that accommodations will be made for smaller grants, however, not all applicants will get the full amount requested. President Collins inquired about partners being included in the mailing list. Ms. Schwantes requested that managers review the mailing list and contact her if they have any additions or changes.

Motion 21-159: Authorize staff to distribute CRWD’s 2022 Partner Grant Request for Proposals and proceed with the grant review and approval process according to the proposed timeline.

AR: Approve 2021-2022 Creative & Information Services Request for Qualifications (Bromelkamp)

The Communications & Engagement Division completed its first Request for Qualifications (RFQ) in 2017 for the 2017-2018 consultant pool to better align with the RFQ process for professional services. Although, there is some overlap between firms responding to these RFQs, they are often unique to each process because of the expertise each requires.

Ms. Bromelkamp reviewed the 2021-2022 Creative and Information Services Request for Qualifications.

These services include graphic design and infographics; content writing, copywriting, and editing; videography; photography; community engagement; artist engagement; event planning, website development and maintenance; public relations; diversity, equity, and inclusion training; translation, interpretation, and voice over; communications training and consulting; strategic planning and evaluation; and workshops for water quality.

Interested firms are required to submit a SOQ that includes background information, key staff and their qualifications, relevant projects, and a fee schedule. In addition, each firm will identify service areas for

which they are qualified. As with the Professional Services RFQ distributed earlier this spring, the District’s Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Plan is highlighted with a request for interested firms to discuss how their operations, expertise, hiring, and/or other efforts would help the District achieve its DEI goals.

District staff is distributing the RFQ to 91 firms based in Minnesota. Approximately 67 firms are WBE (women-owned business enterprise) and/or MBE (minority-owned business enterprise) and certified through Minnesota Unified Certification Program (MNUCP).

Staff will review all SOQs and determine which firms are qualified for each service area. Firms qualified in each area will be placed in the 2021-2022 pool of creative and information services consultants. Staff will request project proposals from the pool of consultants within a respective service area as needed.

Ms. Bromelkamp asked for Managers to share any additional firms that they would like an RFQ to be sent to. Vice President Texer recommended Condition Orange Preparedness. President Collins inquired if the process can be initiated once to make it easier for the vendors. Ms. Bromelkamp responded that measures have been taken to reduce the frequency of SOQ submissions.

Motion 21-160: Approve 2021-2022 Solicitation of Qualifications for Creative & Information Services.

Unfinished Business A)

Water Environment Federation - MS4 Awards Update (Eleria)

Administrator Doneux provided an update on behalf of Ms. Eleria on the Water Environment Federation Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Awards. Administrator Doneux shared that CRWD received the highest score and will be receiving the MS4 Award for 2021. This will be the 4th time CRWD is receiving this award.

B)

MAWD Delegates and Resolutions Update (Doneux)

Administrator Doneux provided a review of policy recommendations through the MAWD resolutions process. Administrator Doneux suggested three issues to discuss as possible MAWD Resolutions. Any resolution the District submits should be well supported statewide, not divisive and be of the most benefit to MAWD and watershed management. The topics Administrator Doneux suggested for Board consideration include: 1. Clarifying Session law Section 6, (a) (2). This law currently reads: “seven-county metropolitan groundwater or surface water management frameworks; and (3) other comprehensive watershed management plan planning areas that have a board-approved and local-government-adopted plan as authorized in Minnesota Statutes, section 103B.801” Administrator Doneux believes this should be merged and amended to read: “seven-county metropolitan groundwater or watershed management plans that have a board-approved and local-government-adopted plan as authorized in Minnesota Statutes, section 103B.”

Administrator Doneux reviewed the use of the word “framework” can be misconstrued to mean any entity that deals with water. The aim is to clarify the intent that in the metropolitan area, Watershed Organizations are the entities being referred to. This clarification will reduce misinterpretation when distributing funding. Administrator Doneux inquired if any further clarification is needed. President Collins commented in agreement with the revision. Manager Murphy also supported Administrator Doneux’s recommendations but has concerns about some partners being offended. Administrator Doneux responded this recommendation has been mentioned several times and the resolution is a step in the right direction to resolve the issue. President Collins explained that this is a metro issue that needs to be clarified.

2. Opposing Session Law Section 6, (q) “$12,000,000 the first year and $12,000,000 the second year are for payments to soil and water conservation districts for the purposes of Minnesota Statutes, sections 103C.321 and 103C.331. From this appropriation, each soil and water conservation district shall receive an increase in its base funding of $100,000 per year. Money remaining after the base increase is available for grants to soil and water conservation districts as determined by the board based on county allocations to soil and water conservation districts and the amount of private land and public waters. The board and other agencies may reduce the amount of grants to a county by an amount equal to any reduction in the county's allocation to a soil and water conservation district from the county's previous year allocation when the board determines that the reduction was disproportionate. The board may use up to two percent for the administration of payments.”

Administrator Doneux explained that Clean Water funds should not be used as a stopgap measure to underwrite soil/water conservation districts. The funds should be directed to projects that improve water quality. Using Clean Water funds for capacity funding has become a problem that needs a resolution.

President Collins agrees that a solution is needed, however, is doubtful that the issue will be resolved.

Vice President Texer stated that the topic needs to be proposed to bring attention to the MAWD Board.

3. Require State Agencies to seek review and comment from affected local units of government on new or amended water management policies prior to adoption.

As an example, Administrator Doneux stated the Watershed Based Implementation Policy will go to a committee, then BWSR, for approval. This approval process will leave little to no time for a reply from Watershed entities, partners and those affected by the policies. When the State adopt policies, it is recommended they give local governments enough time to review and comment. President Collins described the process by which funds are allocated in the metro area. BWSR will have a two-day meeting next week where President Collins plans to attend and talk to members about these concerns.

Administrator Doneux requested any comments or questions. Vice President Texer recommended including as much background information as possible. Administrator Doneux is looking for additional Watershed Districts to support these resolutions. President Collins volunteered to serve on the MAWD resolution committee. Administrator Doneux will bring back to the Board on Sept. 1st for further discussion and consideration.

No Action Requested.

No Action Requested.

D)

C&E Upcoming Events (Schwantes)

Ms. Schwantes provided a review of several upcoming events. She is looking for additional support for the Payne Avenue Solidarity Street Gallery and the Merridale Festival. President Collins could help staff one event on the 18th. Manager Murphy asked for clarification of the Minnesota Seed Project and Como Lake Walking tour. Ms. Schwantes replied that this event was well received in 2020. The Como Lake Walking Tour was an opportunity to educate the community on water quality projects. The Minnesota Seed Project is a partner grant event that helps educate neighbors on native plants and seeds, seed collection and germination, etc.

Ms. Bromelkamp added that a code is available to waive the tour fee for the Minnesota Seed Project.

Ms. Schwantes will share the link for registering. Manager Sanders asked for clarification of the Como Walking Tour event if it is for groups of twenty. Ms. Schwantes replied that number of people attending is capped at twenty, however, in case of additional requests, accommodations will be made. COVID and staffing capacity will be taken into consideration.

No Action Requested.

September 1, 2021, Board Meeting V. Action Items B) Authorize Redemption of 2007A Bond and Refunding of 2013A Bond (Doneux)

August 25, 2021 CRWD Board of Managers Mark Doneux, Administrator Redemption of 2007A Bond and Refunding of 2013A Bond

Background The District has used debt as a form of financing projects since 2007. Currently the District has bonds issued in 2007, 2013 and 2018 and an MPCA Clean Water Loan from 2014. The option to prepay (call date) of the 2007A bonds started in 2017. While the call date for the 2013A is approaching in 2022, the repayment amount of over $2,000,000 may make it infeasible at this point to repay in full. The 2018A bonds have a balance of over $8,000,000 and the call date is in 2027. The MPCA loan only has a $50,000 a year payment and will be fully repaid in 2023.

Issues Given the current estimated 2021, year-end Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Fund Balance of over $5,000,000, it is recommended that the District fully prepay the 2007A bonds in the amount of approximately $615,000. This prepayment would save the District approximately $76,000 over the final six years of the debt schedule. Funds would come from the CIP Fund Balance. The actual payment would be made in October of this year. By retiring this debt early, the District will be able to reduce its debt service each year by approximately $120,000 or apply that savings to the 2013A payments.

In addition to prepaying the 2007A bonds, the Finance Committee along with our Financial Planner, Nick Anhut from Ehlers, reviewed the feasibility of refunding (refinancing) the 2013A bonds. At current interest rates, Mr. Anhut estimates that by refunding the 2013A bonds, the District could realize a saving of approximately $118,000 over the next 12 years of the debt schedule. As a final note, I would recommend that the District use the approximately $120,000 of freed of levy capacity from prepaying the 2007A debt and apply it to accelerate repayment on the refunded (refinanced) 2013A bonds. Doing this, we are able to shorten the repayment to 8 years and increase net interest cost savings to $208,500.

The debt still retires 4 years early without incurring any new levy burden.

Requested Actions 1) Adopt a Resolution providing for the redemption of Series 2007A watershed district tax supported bonds 2) Adopt a Resolution providing for the Sale of $2,020,000 General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2021A enc:

Resolution Providing for the Sale of $2,020,000 General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2021A

A. WHEREAS, the Board of Managers of the Capitol Region Watershed District, Minnesota has heretofore determined that it is necessary and expedient to issue the District's $2,020,000 General Obligation Refunding Bonds, Series 2021A (the "Bonds"), to execute a current refunding of the 2023 to 2034 maturities of the General Obligation Bonds, Series 2013A dated April 15, 2013; and B.

_____________________________________________ Title of Document Signer

September 2, 2020 Board Meeting V. Action Item C) Adopt Preliminary 2021 Budget and Levy (Doneux) DATE: TO: FROM: RE:

August 27, 2020 CRWD Board of Managers Mark Doneux, Administrator Adopt Preliminary 2021 Budget and Levy

Background Each year the Board of Managers must establish a plan of work for the upcoming year, establish a budget based upon the work plan, and establish a levy for the budget. The Board of Managers discussed the current 2021 budget and revenue as well as the Watershed Management Plan at the March 3, 2021, Board Meeting. The Board reviewed the preliminary 2022 Work Plan along with the budget and levy at Board workshop on July 7th as well as at Board Meetings on June 16th and July 21st, 2021. The Citizen Advisory Committee reviewed and recommended approval on the proposed 2022 budget and levy at their August 11th meeting. A duly noticed Public Hearing was held on August 18th to collect public comment on the proposed 2022 budget and levy. The District has not received any comments as of August 25th. The Board of Managers must adopt a Preliminary 2022 Budget and Levy Certification before the initial September 30, 2021, deadline.

Issues I am recommending that the Board restore the 2022 debt service back to $1,056,439. In previous budgets it was reduced by approximately $120,000 in anticipation of a lower debt service. I would recommend the additional $121,985 be applied towards the 2013A bonds to accelerate repayment to eight years.

Staff is recommending the preliminary budget of $825,550 for Administration, $3,769,328 for Programs, $1,564,882 for Projects for a total Operations Budget of $6,159,760 and $4,532,822 for Capital Improvement Projects. This results in a total Preliminary 2022 Budget of $10,692,582. This is an increase of $1,288,518 from the adopted budget for 2021. The proposed 2022 tax levy is $8,774,361. This includes $7,717,922 for the operations and capital levy and $1,056,439 for debt. This levy is 6% greater than 2021.

Requested Action Adopt Resolution approving the Preliminary 2022 Budget and Levy and direct the Treasurer and Administrator to certify the levy with Ramsey County. enc:

September 1, 2021 Board Meeting V. Action Item D) Adopt 2021 Employee Handbook (Doneux)

DATE: TO: FROM: RE:

August 26, 2021 Board of Manager Mark Doneux, Administrator CRWD Employee Handbook Adoption

Background Capitol Region Watershed District’s Employee Handbook guides operations and sets expectations for staff.

The first employee handbook was adopted by the Board of Managers in 2003 and last updated on February 2, 2011 with periodic updates to related policies such as the Salary Administration, and the Office and Administrative Procedures Policies. In January 2021, the District began working to revise the handbook to reflect current best practices, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion, and ensure competitiveness within the market.

Issues In February 2021, Gallagher worked with the Administrator and Division Managers to conduct an all-staff survey requesting feedback on all aspects of the District’s Employee Handbook. Overall, staff described the District as a great place to work. In particular, staff appreciate the health and dental benefits, professional development opportunities, work atmosphere (co-workers and building), and flexibility provided to balance work/life demands. Staff identified the following areas for updates as part of the survey: Paid Time Off (PTO) Accrual, Paid Parental Leave, and Expand Opportunities to Work Off Site (post COVID-19).

The Administrator and Division Managers began researching the Paid Family Leave and Paid Time Off policies of neighboring watershed districts and management organizations, counties, and cities. The District prides itself in being a leader in the industry and this includes providing a competitive compensation and benefits package for its staff. Substaintive changes to the handbook are listed below.

1.

2.

3.

4.

Increase Paid Time Off for all staff, and provide 16 hours of PTO to new staff upon hiring.

Provide 4 consecutive weeks of Paid Family Medical Leave Provide 200 hours of Work Off Site time each year (post COVID-19 restrictions).

The Cell Phone Allowance (increased to $50/month) and Apparel Allowance (increased to $100/year) were increased to reflect present day costs.

The Personnel Committee has reviewed the draft handbook twice and is recommending approval. Staff will review the major changes and key elements of the Handbook with the Managers. The appendices of previously Board approved policies are not included. Please contact the office if you would like copies of any of the Appendices.

Requested Action Adopt 2021 CRWD Employee Handbook. enc: 2021 CRWD Employee Handbook, final draft (w/o Appendices) W:\03 Human Resources\Personnel Policies\2021 Employee Handbook\Brd Memo Handbook Adoption 8-25-21 .docx Our mission is to protect, manage and improve the water resources of Capitol Region Watershed District

Capitol Region Watershed District’s Employee Handbook

Prepared by Capitol Region Watershed District and Human Resources Consultant, Gallagher FINAL DRAFT –8/23/2021 Pending Adoption by the District’s Board of Managers September 1, 2021

September 1, 2021 Dear CRWD Employee: I would like to extend a warm and sincere welcome to new employees of Capitol Region Watershed District. I would also like to thank existing employees for your past and continued service. Your passion, hard work, and dedication not only help the District achieve its mission, but also make it a fantastic place to work.

The Employee Handbook was developed in partnership with staff, Division Managers, the Personnel Committee of the Board of Managers, Gallagher, the District’s Human Resources consultant and the Ramsey County Attorney’s Office. It represents best practices in human resources and is tailored to reflect the culture, aspirations, and needs of the District.

Review and familiarize yourself with the policies outlined in the enclosed Employee Handbook. The handbook provides a framework for all staff to continue to do excellent work at the District and serve our community.

Please contact me or your supervisor with questions about the Employee Handbook. I’m looking forward to another great year ahead.

Thank you,

Mark Doneux, Administrator

ABOUT THIS HANDBOOK/DISCLAIMER Capitol Region Watershed District (herein referred to as “CRWD” or “the District”) prepared this handbook to help employees find the answers to questions they may have regarding their employment with the District. Please take the necessary time to read and understand it.

The District does not expect this handbook to answer all questions. Supervisors and the Administrator also serve as a major source of information and are available to answer questions as they arise.

Neither this handbook nor any other verbal or written communication by the Management Team is, nor should it be considered to be, an agreement, contract of employment, express or implied, or a promise of treatment in any particular manner in any given situation, nor does it confer any contractual rights whatsoever. The Management Team is comprised of Division Managers and the Administrator. The District adheres to the policy of employment at will, which permits the District or the employee to end the employment relationship at any time, for any reason, with or without cause or notice.

No CRWD representative other than the Administrator may modify at-will status and/or provide any special arrangement concerning terms or conditions of employment in an individual case or in general and any such modification must be in a signed writing.

Many matters covered by this handbook, such as benefit plan descriptions, are also described in separate appendices. These appendices always take precedence over any statement made in this handbook.

This handbook outlines general CRWD guidelines. The District may, at any time with Board or Administrator approval, modify or vary from anything stated in this handbook, with or without notice, except for the rights of the parties to end employment at will, which may only be modified by an express written agreement signed by the employee and the Administrator.

This handbook was specifically developed for sole use of CRWD. Policies and other elements of this handbook may not be appropriate for other organizations.

This handbook supersedes all prior handbooks.

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

Section 1 - Governing Principles of Employment 1-1. Introduction Employees must review the following handbook and familiarize themselves with all of the District’s policies that guide work at the District. The handbook defines expectations and requirements for both the employee and the District.

Direct any questions about this handbook to your Supervisor 1-2. Equal Employment Opportunity The District embraces and values diversity and seeks to recruit, promote and retain employees that reflect the communities we serve. We believe that a diverse mix of employees enrich the workplace and enhance the quality of our service. The District values diversity, equity and inclusion and can achieve cleaner waters through engagement across communities.

The District encourages all qualified individuals to apply for open positions. The District is an Equal Opportunity Employer that does not discriminate on the basis of actual or perceived race, color, creed, religion, national origin, ancestry, citizenship status, age, sex or gender (including pregnancy, childbirth and pregnancy-related conditions), gender identity or expression (including transgender status), sexual orientation, marital status, familial status, military service and veteran status, physical or mental disability, genetic information, public assistance, local human rights commission activity, or any other characteristic protected by applicable federal, state or local laws and ordinances. The District's management team, made up of Division Managers and the Administrator, is dedicated to this policy with respect to recruitment, hiring, placement, promotion, training, compensation, benefits, employee assignments and activities, access to facilities, programs, and general treatment during employment.

The District will endeavor to make a reasonable accommodation of an otherwise qualified applicant or employee related to an individual's: physical or mental disability; sincerely held religious beliefs and practices; and/or any other reason required by applicable law, unless doing so would impose an undue hardship upon the District's operations.

Any employee who needs an accommodation in order to perform the essential functions of the job should contact the employee’s Supervisor to request such an accommodation. The individual should specify the accommodation needed to perform the job and submit supporting documentation explaining the basis for the requested accommodation, to the extent permitted and in accordance with applicable law. The District then will review and analyze the request, including engaging in an interactive process with the individual, to identify if such an accommodation can be made. The District will evaluate requested accommodations, and as appropriate identify other possible accommodations, if any. The individual will be notified of the District's decision regarding their request within a reasonable period. The District treats all medical information submitted as part of the accommodation process in a confidential manner.

Any employees with questions or concerns about equal employment opportunities in the workplace 7

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

are encouraged to bring these issues to the attention of their Supervisor. The District will not allow any form of retaliation against individuals who raise issues of equal employment opportunity.

If employees feel they have been subjected to any such retaliation, they should contact their Supervisor or Administrator. To ensure the workplace is free of artificial barriers, violation of this policy including any improper retaliatory conduct will lead to discipline, up to and including dismissal from employment. All employees must cooperate with all investigations conducted pursuant to this policy.

1-3. Non-Harassment and Non-Discrimination It is the District's policy to prohibit harassment of or discrimination against job applicants, contractors, interns, volunteers, Board members, Advisory Committee members, or employees by another employee, supervisor, Board member, Advisory Committee member, vendor, customer or any third party on the basis of actual or perceived race, color, creed, religion, national origin, ancestry, citizenship status, age, sex or gender (including pregnancy, childbirth and pregnancyrelated conditions), gender identity or expression (including transgender status), sexual orientation, marital status, military service and veteran status, physical or mental disability, genetic information or any other characteristic protected by applicable federal, state or local laws (referred to as "protected characteristics"). Such conduct will not be tolerated by the District.

The purpose of this policy is not to regulate our employees' personal morality, but to ensure that no one harasses or discriminates against another individual in the workplace, especially while on District premises, while engaging in District business (whether or not on the District premises) or while representing the District. In addition to being a violation of this policy, harassment, discrimination or retaliation based on any protected characteristic is unlawful as defined by applicable federal, state, or local laws. Conduct may violate these provisions even if it is not intended to be harassing or discriminatory.

1.3.1 Harassment and Discrimination Defined Harassment generally is defined in this policy as unwelcome verbal, visual or physical conduct that denigrates or shows hostility or aversion towards an individual because of any actual or perceived protected characteristic or has the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's work performance or creating an intimidating, hostile or offensive working environment.

Harassment can be verbal (including slurs, jokes, insults, epithets, gestures or teasing, microaggressions), visual (including offensive posters, symbols, cartoons, drawings, computer displays, text messages, social media posts or e-mails) or physical conduct (including physically threatening another, blocking someone's way, etc.). Such conduct violates this policy, even if it does not rise to the level of a violation of applicable federal, state or local laws. Because it is difficult to define harassment, employees are expected to behave at all times in a manner consistent with the intended purpose of this policy.

Microaggressions are defined as verbal and nonverbal interpersonal exchanges in which an offender or offenders intentionally or unintentionally cause harm to another individual through communicating commonplace indignities based on hostility, derogatory, and/or negative slights about the other individual or the individual’s social group. While microaggressions may be unintentional, the impact of such acts have considerable effects on the targeted individual and 8

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

bystanders. Therefore, these actions violate the District’s high standards of conduct.

Discrimination is conduct based on an individual’s actual or perceived protected class that segregates, separates, limits or restricts the individual from employment opportunities, including, but not limited to, hiring, promotion, compensation, disciplinary action, assignment of job duties, benefits or privileges of employment 1.3.2 Sexual Harassment Defined Sexual harassment can include all of the above actions, as well as other unwelcome conduct, suchas unwelcome or unsolicited sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, conversations regarding sexual activities and other verbal, visual or physical conduct of a sexual nature when: •

submission to that conduct or those advances or requests is made either explicitly or implicitly a term or condition of an individual's employment; or

•

submission to or rejection of the conduct or advances or requests by an individual is used as the basis for employment decisions affecting the individual; or

•

the conduct or advances or requests have the purpose or effect of unreasonably interfering with an individual's work performance or creating an intimidating, hostile or offensive working environment.

Examples of conduct that violate this policy include: 1. unwelcome flirtations, leering, whistling, touching, pinching, assault, blocking normal movement; 2. requests for sexual favors or demands for sexual favors in exchange for favorable treatment; 3. obscene or vulgar gestures, posters or comments; 4. sexual jokes or comments about a person's body, sexual prowess or sexual deficiencies; 5. propositions or suggestive or insulting comments of a sexual nature; 6. derogatory cartoons, posters and drawings; 7. sexually-explicit e-mails, text messages or voicemails; 8. uninvited touching of a sexual nature; 9. unwelcome sexually-related comments; 10. conversation about one's own or someone else's sex life; 11. conduct or comments consistently targeted at only one gender, even if the content is not sexual; and 12. teasing or other conduct directed toward a person because of the person's gender.

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

1.3.3 Reporting Procedures If the employee has been subjected to or witnessed conduct which violates the non-harassment and non-discrimination policy, the employee should immediately report the matter to their Supervisor or the Administrator. If the employee does not receive a timely response from their Supervisor or the Administrator or if the reported issue continues to go unaddressed, then the employee should contact the Board President.

1.3.4 Investigation Procedures Every report of perceived harassment or discrimination will be reviewed, and formally investigated as necessary, and corrective action will be taken as appropriate. All complaints will be kept confidential to the extent possible, but confidentiality cannot be guaranteed. All employees must cooperate with all investigations conducted pursuant to this policy.

In addition, CRWD will not allow any form of retaliation against individuals who report harassment or discrimination to their Supervisor or who cooperate in the investigations of such reports in accordance with this policy. If the employee has been subjected to any such retaliation, the employee should report it in the same manner in which the employee would report a claim of perceived harassment or discrimination under this policy.

Violation of this policy including any improper retaliatory conduct will result in disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal from employment.

1-4. Drug-Free and Alcohol-Free Workplace To help ensure a safe, healthy and productive work environment for our employees and others, to protect District property, and to ensure efficient operations, the District has adopted a policy of maintaining a workplace free of drugs and alcohol. This policy applies to all employees and other individuals who perform work for the District.

The unlawful or unauthorized use, abuse, solicitation, theft, possession, transfer, purchase, sale or distribution of controlled substances (including medical marijuana), drug paraphernalia or alcohol by an individual anywhere on the District premises, while engaging in District business (whether or not on the District premises) or while representing the District, is strictly prohibited. Employees and other individuals who work for the District are also prohibited from reporting to work or working while they are using or under the influence of alcohol or any controlled substances, which may impact the employee's ability to perform their job or otherwise pose safety concerns, except when the use is pursuant to a licensed medical practitioner's instructions and the licensed medical practitioner authorized the employee or individual to report to work. However, this exception does not extend any right to report to work under the influence of medical marijuana or to use medical marijuana as a defense to a positive drug test, to the extent the employee is subject to any drug testing requirement, except as permitted by and in accordance with applicable law. This restriction does not apply to responsible drinking of alcohol at off-site meetings, after normal business hours and related social outings.

The District maintains a policy of non-discrimination and will endeavor to make reasonable accommodations to assist individuals recovering from substance and alcohol dependencies, and 10

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

those who have a medical history that reflects treatment for substance abuse conditions.

However, employees may not request an accommodation to avoid discipline for a policy violation.

We encourage employees to seek assistance before their substance abuse or alcohol misuse renders them unable to perform the essential functions of their jobs, or jeopardizes the health and safety of any employee, including themselves.

Employees must notify the Administrator as soon as practicable if they are convicted of a criminal drug violation.

All employees are hereby advised that full compliance with the foregoing policy shall be a condition of employment at CRWD. Any employee who violates the foregoing drug-free workplace policy described above shall be subject to discipline up to and including immediate dismissal from employment.

At the discretion of the District, any employee who violates the drug-free workplace policy may be required, in connection with or in lieu of disciplinary sanctions, to participate to the District's satisfaction in an approved drug assistance or rehabilitation program.

Employees enrolled in a District sponsored health benefits program are eligible for drug and substance abuse counseling through our health provider.

1-5. Workplace Violence The District is strongly committed to providing a safe workplace. The purpose of this policy is to minimize the risk of personal injury to employees, damage to the District and personal property.

The District does not expect employees to become experts in psychology or to physically subdue a threatening or violent individual. Indeed, the District specifically discourages employees from engaging in any physical confrontation with a violent or potentially violent individual and finding safe refuge from violent individuals. However, the District does expect and encourage employees to exercise reasonable judgment in identifying and notifying employees of dangerous or potentially dangerous situations.

Experts in the mental health profession state that prior to engaging in acts of violence, troubled individuals often exhibit one or more of the following behaviors or signs: over-resentment, anger and hostility; extreme agitation; making ominous threats such as bad things will happen to a particular person, or a catastrophic event will occur; sudden and significant decline in work performance; irresponsible, irrational, intimidating, aggressive or otherwise inappropriate behavior; reacting to questions with an antagonistic or overtly negative attitude; discussing weapons and their use, and/or brandishing weapons in the workplace; overreacting or reacting harshly to changes in the District policies and procedures; personality conflicts with employees; obsession or preoccupation with a coworker or supervisor; attempts to sabotage the work or equipment of a employee; blaming others for mistakes and circumstances; or demonstrating a propensity to behave and react irrationally.

If you have concerns about an employee exhibiting such behaviors, please follow the 1.5.2 Procedures for Reporting a Threat outlined below.

11

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

1.5.1 Prohibited Conduct Threats, threatening language or any other acts of aggression or violence made toward or by any District employee will not be tolerated. For purposes of this policy, a threat includes any verbal, visual or physical harassment or abuse, any attempt at intimidating or instilling fear in others, menacing gestures, flashing of weapons, stalking or any other hostile, aggressive, injurious or destructive action undertaken for the purpose of domination or intimidation. Employees are prohibited from carrying weapons onto the District premises.

1.5.2 Procedures for Reporting a Threat All potentially dangerous situations, including threats by coworkers, should be reported immediately to any member of the Management Team with whom the employee feels comfortable.

Reports of threats may be maintained confidential to the extent maintaining confidentiality does not impede the District's ability to investigate and respond to the complaints. All threats will be promptly investigated. All employees must cooperate with all investigations. No employee will be subjected to retaliation, intimidation, or disciplinary action as a result of reporting a threat in good faith under this policy.

If the District determines, after an appropriate good faith investigation, that someone has violated this policy, the District will take swift and appropriate corrective action.

If the employee is the recipient of a threat made by an outside party, that employee should follow the steps detailed in this section. Employees should call 911 immediately if there is fear of imminent or severe harm. It is important for the District to be aware of any potential danger in its offices. Indeed, the District wants to take effective measures to protect everyone from the threat of a violent act by employees or by anyone else.

12

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

Section 2 - General Standards of Conduct 2-1. Workplace Conduct The District endeavors to maintain a positive work environment. Each employee plays a role in fostering this environment. Accordingly, we all must abide by certain rules of conduct, based on honesty, common sense, and fair play.

Because everyone may not have the same idea about proper workplace conduct, it is helpful to adopt and enforce rules all can follow. Unacceptable conduct may subject the offender to disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal from employment, at the District's sole discretion.

The following are examples of some, but not all, workplace conduct which can be considered unacceptable: 1. Obtaining employment on the basis of false or misleading information.

2. Stealing, removing or defacing District property or a coworker's property, and/or disclosure of confidential information.

3. Completing another employee's time records.

4. Violation of District safety rules and policies as defined in the District’s Safety Program Manual.

5. Violation of the District's Drug and Alcohol-Free Workplace Policy.

6. Fighting, threatening or disrupting the work of others or other violations of the District's Workplace Violence Policy.

7. Failure to follow lawful instructions of a supervisor.

8. Failure to perform assigned job duties.

9. Violation of the District’s Punctuality and Attendance Policy, including but not limited to irregular attendance, habitual lateness or unexcused absences.

10. Gambling on the District’s property.

11. Willful or careless destruction or damage to the District’s assets or to the equipment or possessions of another employee.

12. Performing work of a personal nature during working time.

13. Violation of the District’s Solicitation and Distribution Policy.

14. Violation of the District's Harassment, Discrimination or Equal Employment Opportunity Policies.

13

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

15. Violation of the District’s Communication and Computer Systems Policy.

16. Unsatisfactory job performance.

17. Any other violation of District policy.

Not every type of misconduct can be listed. Note that all employees are employed at-will, and the District reserves the right to impose whatever discipline it chooses, or none at all, in a particular instance. The District will deal with each situation individually and nothing in this handbook should be construed as a promise of specific treatment in a given situation. While CRWD will endeavor to utilize progressive discipline, the District reserves the right in its sole discretion to dismiss the employee at any time for any reason. The observance of these rules will help to ensure that the workplace remains a safe and desirable place to work.

2-2. Punctuality and Attendance Employees are hired to perform important functions at the District. As with any group effort, operating effectively takes cooperation and commitment from everyone. Regular attendance is an essential condition for employment. In order to provide quality service to our stakeholders and to lessen the adverse impact on the employees who must cover an absentee’s job, the District expects every employee to report to work each regularly scheduled workday. Therefore, attendance and punctuality are very important.

Unnecessary absences and lateness are expensive, disruptive and place an unfair burden on fellow employees and Supervisors. The District expects excellent attendance from all employees.

Excessive absenteeism or tardiness will result in disciplinary action up to and including dismissal from employment.

The District does recognize, however, there are times when absences and tardiness cannot be avoided. In such cases, employees are expected to notify their Supervisors as early as possible, but no later than the start of the workday. Asking another employee, friend or relative to give this notice is improper and constitutes grounds for disciplinary action unless extreme circumstances prevent them from doing so. Employees should call or email, stating the nature of the illness or situation and its expected duration, for every day of absenteeism prior to the workday or as soon as possible.

Unreported absences of three (3) consecutive workdays generally will be considered a voluntary resignation of employment with the District. See also Section 3.5, Working Hours and Schedule.

2-3. Use of Communications and Computer Systems The District's communication and computer systems are intended primarily for business purposes; however limited personal usage is permitted if it does not hinder performance of job duties or violate any other District policy. This includes the voice mail, e-mail and Internet systems.

Employees have no expectation of privacy in regard to their use of the District systems.

The District may access the voice mail and e-mail systems and obtain the communications within the systems, including past voice mail and e-mail messages, without notice to users of the system, 14

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

in the ordinary course of business when the District deems it appropriate to do so. The reasons for which the District may obtain such access include but are not limited to: maintaining the system; preventing or investigating allegations of system abuse or misuse; assuring compliance with software copyright laws; complying with legal and regulatory requests for information; and ensuring that District operations continue appropriately during an employee’s absence.

Further, the District may review Internet usage to ensure that such use with District property or communications sent via the Internet with District property, are appropriate. The reasons for which the District may review employees' use of the Internet with District property include but are not limited to: maintaining the system; preventing or investigating allegations of system abuse or misuse; assuring compliance with software copyright laws; complying with legal and regulatory requests for information; and ensuring that District operations continue appropriately during an employee’s absence.

The District may store electronic communications for a period of time after the communication is created. From time to time, copies of communications may be deleted.

The District's policies prohibiting harassment and discrimination, in their entirety, apply to the use of the District's communication and computer systems. No one may use any communication or computer system in a manner that may be construed by others as harassing, discriminatory, or offensive based on race, national origin, sex, sexual orientation, age, disability, religious beliefs or any other characteristic protected by federal, state or local law.

Further, since the District's communication and computer systems are intended for business use, all employees, upon request, may be required to provide management with any private access codes or passwords.

Unauthorized duplication of copyrighted computer software violates the law and is strictly prohibited.

No employee may access, or attempt to obtain access to, another employee's computer systems without appropriate authorization.

Violators of this policy may be subject to disciplinary action, up to and including dismissal from employment.

2-4. Use of Social Media Channels The District’s Communications and Engagement Division creates content for its blogs, web pages and social media channels that is accessible for all audiences and responds to questions and comments in a clear, consistent and timely manner.

The District respects the right of any employee to maintain a personal blog, web page, or social media account, including but not limited to Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and TikTok. However, to protect the District’s interests, employees must adhere to the following rules: If an employee mentions the District and also expresses either a political opinion or an opinion regarding the District's actions on their own or someone else’s blog, webpage or social media 15

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

channels, that could pose an actual or potential conflict of interest with the District, the employee must include a disclaimer. The employee should specifically state that the opinion expressed is their personal opinion and not the District's position. This is necessary to preserve the District's good will in the community.

Nothing in this policy shall prohibit or infringe on speech or expression that is protected by law. Any conduct that is not permissible under the law if expressed in any other form or forum is not permissible if expressed through a blog, web page, or social media channels. For example, posted material that is discriminatory, obscene, defamatory, libelous or violent is forbidden. The District policies apply equally to employee social media usage.

The District encourages all employees to keep in mind the speed and manner in which information posted on a blog, web page, and/or social media channel is received and often misunderstood by readers. Employees must use their best judgment. Social media posts that impede the services provided by the District, disrupt District operations, interfere with working relationships, or negatively impact the ability of the District to carry out its mission will be evaluated on a case-bycase basis and may result in discipline, up to and including dismissal. Employees with any questions should review the guidelines above and/or consult with their Supervisor. Failure to follow these guidelines may result in discipline, up to and including dismissal from employment.

Employees may not post on a blog, web page or social media channels for personal reasons during work time or at any time with District equipment or property.

All rules regarding confidential and proprietary District information apply in full to blogs, web pages and social media channels. Any information that cannot be disclosed through a conversation, a note or an e-mail also cannot be disclosed in a blog, web page or social media channels.

2-5. Personal and District-Provided Portable Communication Devices District-provided portable communication devices, including laptops, and tablets, should be used for business purposes. Employees have no reasonable expectation of privacy in regard to the use of such devices, and all use is subject to monitoring, to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. This includes, as permitted, the right to monitor devices as necessary.

Employees may be authorized to use their own cell phone for business purposes, at the District’s sole discretion and approval. If approved, the District will provide a cell phone reimbursement of $50/month for employee use of their own cell phone when conducting District work.

Communications sent via a personal cell phone may be subject to monitoring if sent through the District's networks and the cell phone must be provided for inspection and review upon request.

All conversations, text messages and e-mails must be professional. When sending a text message or using a device for business purposes, whether it is a District-provided or personal device, employees must comply with applicable District guidelines, including policies on sexual harassment, discrimination, conduct, confidentiality, equipment use and operation of vehicles.

Using a District-issued device to send or receive personal messages is prohibited at all times.

If employees who use a personal cell phone for business resign or are dismissed from 16

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

employment, they may be required to submit the device to the District for review on or before their last day of work. At that time, the District may remove all work-related information from the device.

Employees may not use their personal device for business unless they agree to submit the device to the District on or before their last day of work for removal of District information. The removal of the District’s information is crucial to ensure compliance with the District's confidentiality and proprietary information policies and objectives.

Please note that whether employees use their personal cell phone or a District-issued device, the District's electronic communications policies, including but not limited to, proper use of communications and computer systems, remain in effect.

2-6. Inspections The District reserves the right to require employees while on the District property, or engaging in District business, to agree to the inspection of their work areas. This includes lockers, vehicles, desks, cabinets, workstations, packages, or places of concealment, as well as personal mail sent to the District or to its stakeholders. Employees are expected to cooperate in the conduct of any search or inspection.

2-7. Smoking Smoking including the use of e-cigarettes and chewing tobacco is prohibited while conducting District work on and off the premises, and in all District vehicles.

2-8. Personal Visits and Telephone Calls Disruptions during work time can lead to errors and delays. Therefore, personal telephone calls must be kept to a minimum, and to the degree possible, only be made or received after working hours, or during lunch or break time.

For safety and security reasons, employees must accompany personal guests anywhere in District facilities other than the reception areas and restrooms.

2-9. Solicitation and Distribution Solicitation by an employee to another employee is prohibited, unless approved by the Administrator.

Solicitation of any kind and distribution of literature by non-employees on District premises is prohibited at all times.

2-10. District Bulletin Boards Important notices are posted on District bulletin boards. Employees should make it a practice to review bulletin boards frequently. This will assist employees in keeping up with OSHA and employment requirements. To avoid confusion, only authorized employees should post or remove material from the bulletin board.

17

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

2-11. Confidential Company Information During the course of work, employees may become aware of confidential information. It is extremely important that all such information remain confidential and communicated on a strict need-to-know basis. Any employee who improperly copies, removes (whether physically or electronically), uses or discloses confidential information to anyone outside of the District may be subject to disciplinary action up to and including dismissal from employment. If an employee discovers confidential information or information that could reasonably be considered confidential, the employee must immediately inform their supervisor. This applies to paper and electronic records.

2-12. Conflict of Interest and Business Ethics It is CRWD's policy that all employees avoid any conflict between their personal interests, secondary employers, and those of the District. The purpose of this policy is to ensure that the District's honesty and integrity, and therefore its reputation, are not compromised. The fundamental principle guiding this policy is that no employee should have, or appear to have, personal interests, secondary employment, or relationships that actually or potentially conflict with the best interests of the District.

Furthermore, CRWD expects employees who hold full time positions with the District to treat their employment as their primary occupation. It is not possible to give an exhaustive list of situations that might involve violations of this policy. However, the situations that would constitute a conflict in most cases include but are not limited to: 1. holding an interest in or accepting free or discounted goods from any organization that does, or is seeking to do, business with the District, by any employee who is in a position to directly or indirectly influence either the District's decision to do business, or the terms upon which business would be done with such organization; 2. holding any interest in an organization that competes with public interests upheld by the District; 3. being employed by (including as a consultant) or serving on the board of any organization which does, or is seeking to do, business with the District or which competes with the District; and/or 4. profiting personally, e.g., through commissions, loans, expense reimbursements or other payments, from any organization seeking to do business with the District.

A conflict of interest would also exist when a member of the employee's immediate family is involved in situations such as those above.

This policy is not intended to prohibit the acceptance of modest courtesies, openly given and accepted as part of the usual business amenities, for example, occasional business-related meals or promotional items of nominal or minor value as defined by Minn. Stat. 471.895.

It is the employee's responsibility to report any actual or potential conflict that may exist between 18

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

the employee (and the employee's immediate family) and the District.

2-13. Use of Facilities, Equipment and Property, Including Intellectual Property Equipment essential in accomplishing job duties is often expensive and may be difficult to replace.

When using equipment, employees are expected to exercise care, perform required maintenance, and follow all operating instructions, safety standards and guidelines.

Employees should notify their supervisor if any equipment, machines, or tools are lost or stolen or appear to be damaged, defective or in need of repair. Prompt reporting of loss, damages, defects and the need for repairs could prevent deterioration of equipment and possible injury to employees or others.

Supervisors can answer any questions about the employees' responsibility for maintenance and care of equipment used on the job.

Employees also are prohibited from any unauthorized use of the District's facilities, equipment, and intellectual property, such as audio and video tapes, print materials and software.

Improper, careless, negligent, destructive, or unsafe use or operation of equipment can result in replacement at the employee’s expense and discipline, up to and including dismissal from employment.

Further, the District is not responsible for any damage to employees' personal belongings unless the employee's supervisor provided advance approval for the employee to bring the personal property to work.

2-14. Health and Safety The health and safety of employees and others on District property, or conducting District work, are of critical concern to the District. The District intends to comply with all health and safety laws applicable to its operations. To this end, the District’s Safety Manual outlines the policies, procedures and best practices to maintain a safe workplace and minimize accidents. See Appendix C. All employees should familiarize themselves with the practices and guidelines in the Safety Manual, as strict compliance is expected.

The District relies upon employees to ensure that work areas are kept safe and free of hazardous conditions. Employees are required to be conscientious about workplace safety, including proper operating methods, and recognize dangerous conditions or hazards. Any unsafe conditions or potential hazards should be reported to a Supervisor immediately, even if the problem appears to be corrected. Any suspicion of a concealed danger present on the District's premises, or in a product, facility, piece of equipment, process or business practice for which the District is responsible should be brought to the attention of the safety officer and the employee’s Supervisor immediately.

Any workplace injury, accident, or illness must be reported to the employee's supervisor and safety officer as soon as possible, regardless of the severity of the injury or accident. Employees are required to fill out the District Accident Report Form and if professional medical attention is sought, 19

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

the Worker’s Compensation Form. Forms should be submitted to the safety officer and the employee’s Supervisor immediately. See Appendix C – District Safety Manual.

2-15. Hiring Relatives/Employee Relationships Employees who are related can create an actual or at least a potential conflict of interest in the employment setting, especially where one relative supervises another relative. To avoid this problem, the District may refuse to hire or place a relative in a position where the potential for favoritism or conflict exists.

In other cases, such as personal relationships where a conflict or the potential for conflict arises, even if there is no supervisory relationship involved, the parties may be separated by reassignment or dismissal from employment at the discretion of the District. Accordingly, all parties to any type of intimate personal relationship must inform their Supervisor.

If two employees marry, become related, or enter into an intimate relationship, they may not remain in a reporting relationship or in positions where one individual may affect the compensation or other terms or conditions of employment of the other individual. The District generally will attempt to identify other available positions, but if no alternate position is available, the District retains the right to decide which employee will remain with the District.

For the purposes of this policy, a relative is any person who is related by blood or marriage, or whose relationship with the employee is similar to that of persons who are related by blood or marriage.

2-16. Employee Dress, Personal Appearance, and District Apparel Employees are expected to report to work well groomed, clean, and dressed according to the requirements of their position. Employees are expected to dress in a professional manner and generally to a level of business casual. Jeans without holes are allowed. Hats (unless required for field work), shorts, or clothes with sayings, slogans, or images that may be deemed offensive, inappropriate, or violate District policies are not allowed. Some employees may be required to wear District apparel or safety equipment/clothing. Employees should consult the District Safety Manual (Appendix C) for specific field work related apparel requirements. If employees report to work dressed or groomed inappropriately, they may be asked to leave work until they return wellgroomed and wearing the proper attire.

District employees, and Board members will be allowed an annual $100 allowance with additional purchases at 50% cost for District apparel, required Personal Protective Equipment (not provided by the District), or other related work clothing. Employees should contact the Office Manager for details about procuring District apparel.

2-17. Publicity/Statements to the Media All media inquiries regarding the position of the District as to any issues must be referred to the Communications and Engagement Division Manager. Only the Communications and Engagement 20

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

Division Manager with approval of the Administrator is authorized to make or approve public statements on behalf of the District. No employees, unless specifically designated by the Communications and Engagement Division Manager or Administrator, are authorized to make statements on behalf of the District. Any employee wishing to write and/or publish an article, paper, or other publication on behalf of the District must submit a draft to the Communications and Engagement Division Manager for review and approval before publication.

2-18. Operation of Vehicles All employees that drive District vehicles or personal vehicles when conducting District business must possess a current, valid driver's license and an acceptable driving record. Any change in license status or driving record must be reported to Supervisor immediately.

It is the responsibility of every employee to drive safely and obey all traffic, vehicle safety, and parking laws or regulations. Drivers must demonstrate safe driving habits at all times.

District vehicles may be used only as authorized by an employee’s Supervisor.

2.18.1 Cell Phone Use While Driving Employees who drive for District business must abide by all state or local laws prohibiting or limiting device use, including cell phones while driving. The District requires staff to use hands-free features when using cell phones while operating vehicles. Further, even if use is permitted, employees may choose to refrain from using any device while driving. "Use" includes, but is not limited to, talking or listening to another person or sending an electronic or text message, or receiving directions from GPS applications via the device unless it can be done while abiding by the Hands-Free Law. Under no circumstances should employees feel that they need to place themselves at risk to fulfill business needs.

Since this policy does not require any employee to use a device while driving, employees who are charged with traffic violations resulting from the use of their device while driving will be solely responsible for all liabilities that result from such actions.

Texting and e-mailing while driving is prohibited in all circumstances.

2-19. Work Expense Reimbursement Employees will be reimbursed for reasonable approved expenses incurred during the course of business. These expenses must be approved by the employee's Supervisor, and may include air travel, hotels, motels, meals, cab/ride sharing fare, rental vehicles, parking, public transportation fares, or gas and car mileage for personal vehicles. All expenses incurred should be submitted on an expense report form to their Supervisor along with the receipts in a timely manner and preferably within the same pay period the expenses were incurred.

Employees are expected to exercise restraint and good judgment when incurring expenses.

Employees should contact their Supervisor in advance if they have any questions about whether an expense will be reimbursed. Alcohol, excessive meal costs, meals for non-employees and 21

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

entertainment with not be reimbursed.

If an employee voluntarily separates from the District, the District may seek a prorated reimbursement for professional development costs incurred during the 12 months preceding separation.

2-20. References The District will respond to reference requests through Supervisors. The District will provide general information concerning the employee such as date of hire, date of separation from employment, and positions held.

2-21. Separation from the District Should any employees decide to leave the District, we ask that they provide their Supervisor with at least two (2) weeks advance notice of departure. All District property, including, but not limited to, keys, security cards, parking passes, laptop computers, tablet, ancillary computer equipment, PPE, etc., must be returned at separation. Employees also must return all of the District's Confidential Information upon separation. To the extent permitted by law, employees will be required to repay the District (through payroll deduction) for any lost or damaged District property.

As noted previously, all employees are employed at-will and nothing in this handbook changes that status. Employees may be required to reimburse the District for professional development costs on a prorated basis for the 12-months prior to separation.

2-22. Exit Interviews Employees who resign are requested to participate in an exit interview with their Supervisor or the Administrator.

Section 3 - Operational Policies 3-1. Employee Classifications For purposes of this handbook, all District employees fall within one of the classifications below.

Full-Time Employees – Employees who regularly work at least 40 hours per week who were not hired on a short-term basis.

Part-Time Employees – Employees who regularly work fewer than 40 hours per week who were not hired on a short-term basis.

Limited-Term Employees – Employees who were hired for a specific short-term project, or on a short-term freelance, per diem or temporary basis. Limited-term employees are eligible for certain District benefits but are eligible to receive statutory benefits

Section 4-13

Note: Employees become eligible for PERA after earning $5,100 in gross wages.

Section 4-1 Section 3-8

In addition to the above classifications, employees are categorized as either "exempt" or "nonexempt" for purposes of federal and state wage and hour laws. Employees classified as exempt do not receive overtime pay; they generally receive the same weekly salary regardless of hours worked. Such salaries may be paid less frequently than weekly. The employee will be informed of these classifications upon hire and informed of any subsequent changes to the classifications.

3-2. New-in-Role | Introductory Period The first six months of employees' employment in a new position is an introductory period. This is an opportunity for the District to evaluate the employee's performance. It also is an opportunity for employees to decide whether they are happy being employed by the District in their new role. The District may extend the introductory period if it desires. Completion of the introductory period does 23

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

not alter the employee's at-will status.

The District will conduct a formal performance review at the end of the introductory period.

3-3. Employee’s Employment Records In order to be employed at the District, employees provide personal information, such as address, telephone number, tax information, and emergency contact information. This information is contained in their personnel file.

Employees should keep their personnel file up to date by submitting changes in writing and verbally informing the Office Manager of any changes. Employees should also inform their Supervisor of any specialized training or skills they acquire, as well as any changes to any required visas. Unreported changes of address, marital status, etc. can affect withholding tax and benefit coverage. Further, an "out of date" emergency contact or an inability to reach employees in a crisis could cause a severe health or safety risk or other significant problem.

3-4. Right to Review Personnel Records Active employees have the right to review their personnel record. Employees who leave the District may review their personnel record as long as the District is required to maintain the personnel record.

To review their personnel record, employees must make a request in writing to the Office Manager.

Employees may also request a copy of the record at the time they review it. The copy will be made available to the employee at no cost.

The District will provide employees an opportunity to review their personnel record within seven (7) working days of the written request.

What is contained in the personnel record is carefully defined under Minnesota law. The law does not require employee access to information that is not contained in the personnel record.

If employees dispute information contained in their personnel record, they may request that it be removed from the record. However, if the District does not agree that the information should be removed, the employee may submit a written response to the denial.

No action can be taken against employees who appropriately ask to review their personnel records.

If employees are improperly denied their rights as provided by this law, the law provides certain remedies.

This notice only describes some of the employee's rights under the law. More information, detailing employee rights relative to personnel information, is included in the Minnesota Government Data Practices Act, Minnesota Statutes Chapter 13.

3-5. Working Hours and Schedule

24

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

The District office is open for business from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday.

Standard work hours are also from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM. With approval from their supervisor, employees may work an eight-hour day between the hours of 7:00 AM and 6:00 PM, Monday through Friday. Some employees may be required to work from 8:00 AM to 4:30 PM, Monday through Friday. All employees may be required or requested to work evenings and weekends based on their job duties.

Employees will be assigned a work schedule and will be expected to begin and end work according to the schedule. To accommodate the needs of the District, at some point the District may need to change individual work schedules on either a short-term or long-term basis.

3-6. Meal and Rest Breaks The District provides 30-minute unpaid meal breaks to all employees who work eight or more hours consecutively. Employees receive 15-minute paid rest breaks for every four consecutive hours of work. Employees are strongly discouraged from performing any District work during these breaks.

3-7. Inclement Weather The District expects employees to come to work during inclement weather conditions unless the Administrator declares an emergency closing. Each employee, however, should use their own best judgment about their personal safety on days an emergency closing is not declared.

3.7.1 Office Closing In the event of an emergency situation (weather-related or other) exists at the start of a workday or continues from the previous day and the office is closed for all or part of the day, all employees scheduled to work during the period of closing will receive their regular pay.

3.7.2 Employees Required to Remain on the Job Some employees may be required to remain on the job or to report even when the office is closed.

The District Administrator may grant equal time off to compensate. Such time off must be scheduled and authorized by the Administrator and noted accordingly on attendance records.

3-8. Work Off Site (WOS) The District may provide employees with 200 hours per year of Work Off Site (WOS) time at the start of the calendar year. WOS time can be utilized during that calendar year with approval from an employee’s Supervisor. Any unused WOS time does not carry over to the next year. Eligibility for this arrangement is based on job classification, duties and work performance and is decided on a case-by-case basis by the District. The District expects employees who work offsite to have the same work hours and level of availability as they would when working in the office. Employees are expected to respond in a timely manner to email and phone requests, and to be available for virtual meetings. New employees and employees working a reduced schedule will receive a prorated amount of WOS time.

3.8.1 Location 25

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

Employees will provide, at their expense, a secure, dedicated work area, and internet connection for server access. Employees are responsible for maintaining the work area in a safe, secure, and nonhazardous condition at all times. Employees will maintain secure devices and procedures necessary to prevent access and use by unauthorized persons, including by preventing the connection of any District-furnished computer system, network, or database to any computer, network, or database other than a computer, network, or database to which connections are provided or authorized by the District.

3.8.2 Duties Employees are expected to follow all existing District policies and procedures while working off site.

The duties, obligations, responsibilities, and conditions of employment with the District remain unchanged. Employees must stay engaged with work throughout the workday and be fully available during normal business hours. If employees do not successfully perform their job duties remotely, this arrangement will be revoked. Employees are expected to follow existing District policies with respect to scheduled and unscheduled time off, including the obligation to speak with their supervisor before the scheduled start time in the event of an unscheduled absence, late start, or early departure.

3.8.3 Accidents and Injuries Employees agree to maintain safe conditions in the remote workspace and to practice the same safety habits and rules applied on the District premises. If employees incur an injury arising out of the course and scope of the assigned job duties while working in the remote workspace, the workers' compensation provisions in place for the state in which the employees are working will apply. Employees must notify their Supervisor and the safety officer immediately and complete all necessary and/or requested documents regarding the reported injury. The District assumes no responsibility for injuries occurring in the remote workspace outside normal working hours or for injuries that occur as a result of a reasonably recognizable unsafe remote workspace.

3.8.4 Equipment Employees agree to use District provided or approved electronic equipment that has been encrypted and meets all of the District's security requirements. If the District provides equipment for home use, employees agree to provide a secure location for District-owned equipment and will not use, or allow others to use, such equipment for purposes other than District business. Employees have no expectation of ownership in such equipment, linkages, property, or other items installed or provided by the District. The District will bear the expense of removal of any such equipment, linkages, and installations provided by the District upon the conclusion of the remote work arrangement but not modification of or repairs to the work location. Employees hereby release the District from any damage or liability incurred in the installing or removal of the equipment provided by the District.

3.8.5 Return of District Property All equipment, records, and materials provided by the District will remain District property.

Employees agree to return District equipment, records, and materials upon request. All District equipment will be returned by employees for inspection, repair, or replacement as needed or 26

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

requested or immediately upon conclusion of the remote work/telecommuting arrangement. All equipment must be returned within five (5) business days of written notice to the employees.

3.8.6 Expenses Employee’s regular household utility charges, such as electricity, water, phone, Internet service, auto, homeowners' insurance, etc., are not reimbursable unless state law requires reimbursement.

3.8.7 Confidentiality Employees agree that they are subject to the District's policies prohibiting the nonbusiness use or dissemination of the District's confidential business information. Employees will take all appropriate steps to safeguard the District's confidential information, including segregating it from personal papers and documents, not allowing non-employees to access such information, and keeping such information in locked drawers or file cabinets when not in use. Employees will maintain confidential information in a safe and secure location.

3-9. Timekeeping Procedures Employees must record their actual time worked for payroll and benefit purposes.

Altering, falsifying or tampering with time records is prohibited and subjects the employee to discipline, up to and including dismissal from employment.

Exempt employees are required to record their daily work activities and report absences from work for reasons such as leaves of absence, sick leave or personal business.

It is the employee's and their Supervisor’s responsibility to sign time records to certify the accuracy of all time recorded. Any errors in the time record should be reported immediately to their Supervisor, who will attempt to correct legitimate errors. Timesheets should be recorded daily into the District’s accounting software system. All timesheets must be recorded and signed electronically by the employee and supervisor no later than 8:00 AM on the Monday following the end of a pay period. To avoid delays and errors in processing payroll, employees are strongly encouraged to complete their timesheets on their last day of work in any given pay period.

3-10. Overtime Like most successful organizations, the District experiences periods of extremely high activity.

During these busy periods, additional work may be required. Supervisors are responsible for monitoring work activity and requesting overtime work if it is necessary. Effort will be made to provide employees with adequate advance notice in such situations.

Any non-exempt employee who works overtime will be compensated at the rate of one and onehalf times (1.5) their normal hourly wage for all time worked in excess of 40 hours each week, unless otherwise required by law.

Employees may work overtime only with prior Supervisor approval.

For purposes of calculating overtime for non-exempt employees, the workweek begins at 12 a.m.

27

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

on Monday and ends 168 hours later at 12 a.m. on the following Monday.

3-11. Travel Time for Non-Exempt Employees 3.11.1 Overnight, Out-of-Town Trips Non-exempt employees will be compensated for time spent traveling (except for meal periods) during their normal working hours, on days they are scheduled to work and on unscheduled workdays (such as weekends). Non-exempt employees also will be paid for any time spent performing job duties during otherwise non-compensable travel time; however, such work should be limited absent advance management authorization.

3.11.2 Out-of-Town Trips for One Day Non-exempt employees who travel out of town for a one-day assignment will be paid for all travel time, except for, among other things: time spent traveling between the employee's home and the local railroad, bus or plane terminal; and meal periods.

3.11.3 Local Travel Non-exempt employees will be compensated for time spent traveling from one job site to another job site during a workday. The trip home, however, is non-compensable when the employee goes directly home from the final job site, unless it is much longer than the regular commute home from the regular worksite. In such case, the portion of the trip home in excess of the regular commute is compensable.

3.11.4 Commuting Time Under the Portal to Portal Act, travel from home to work and from work to home is generally noncompensable. However, if a non-exempt employee regularly reports to a worksite near their home but is required to report to a worksite farther away than the regular worksite, the additional time spent traveling is compensable.

If compensable travel time results in more than 40 hours worked by a non-exempt employee, the employee will be compensated at an overtime rate of one and one-half (1-1/2) times the regular rate.

To the extent that applicable state law provides greater benefits, state law applies.

3-12. Payroll Deduction Policy for Exempt Employees It is the District's policy and practice to accurately compensate employees and to do so in compliance with all applicable state and federal laws. To ensure proper payment and that no improper deductions are made, employees must review pay stubs promptly to identify and report all errors.

Those classified as exempt salaried employees will receive a salary which is intended to compensate them for all hours they may work for the District. This salary will be established at the time of hire or classification as an exempt employee. While it may be subject to review and 28

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

modification from time to time, such as during salary review times, the salary will be a predetermined amount that will not be subject to deductions for variations in the quantity or quality of the work performed.

Under federal and state law, salary is subject to certain deductions. For example, unless state law requires otherwise, salary can be reduced for the following reasons: •

full-day absences for personal reasons if PTO is not used;

•

full-day absences for sickness or disability if the deduction is made in accordance with a bona fide plan, policy or practice of providing wage replacement benefits for such absences (deductions also may be made for the exempt employee's full-day absences due to sickness or disability before the employee has qualified for the plan, policy or practice or after the employee has exhausted the leave allowance under the plan);

•

full-day disciplinary suspensions for infractions of our written policies and procedures;

•

Family and Medical Leave Act absences after paid FMLA period ends (either full-or partialday absences);

•

to offset amounts received as payment from the court for jury and witness fees or from the military as military pay;

•

the first or last week of employment in the event the employee works less than a full week; and

•

any full work week in which the employee does not perform any work and PTO is not used.

Salary may also be reduced for certain types of deductions such as a portion of health, dental or life insurance premiums; state, federal or local taxes; social security; or voluntary contributions to a 403(b) or other retirement plan.

In any work week in which the employee performed any work, salary will not be reduced for any of the following reasons: •

partial day absences for personal reasons, sickness or disability;

•

an absence because the District has decided to close a facility on a scheduled workday; absences for jury duty, attendance as a witness, or military leave in any week in which the employee performed any work (subject to any offsets as set forth above); and

•

any other deductions prohibited by state or federal law.

However, unless state law provides otherwise, deductions may be made to accrued leave for full-or partial-day absences for personal reasons, sickness or disability.

If employees believe they have been subject to any improper deductions, they should immediately report the matter to their Supervisor. If the supervisor is unavailable or if the employee believes it would be inappropriate to contact them (or if the employee has not received a prompt and fully 29

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

acceptable reply), the employee should immediately contact the Administrator.

3-13. Your Paycheck Employees will be paid bi-weekly for all the time worked during the past pay period.

Payroll stubs itemize deductions made from gross earnings. By law, the District is required to make deductions for Social Security, federal income tax and any other appropriate taxes. These required deductions also may include any court-ordered garnishments. Payroll stubs will differentiate between regular pay received and overtime pay received.

If there is an error in any employee's pay, the employee should bring the matter to the attention of the Office Manager immediately so the District can resolve the matter quickly and amicably.

Employees normally receive pay through direct deposit. The District provides printed checks under very rare and special circumstances. In these situations, paychecks will be given only to the employee, unless the employee requests that they be mailed or authorizes in writing that another person may accept the check. Please note: The District strongly encourages employees to use direct deposit. Authorization forms are available from the Office Manager.

3-14. Wage Disclosure Protections Under Minnesota law, an employer may not: 1. require nondisclosure by employees of their wages as a condition of employment; 2. require employees to sign a waiver or other document which purports to deny them the right to disclose their wages; or 3. take any adverse employment action against employees for disclosing their own wages or discussing another employee's wages which have been disclosed voluntarily.

Nonetheless, this policy should not be construed to: 1. create an obligation on the District or on employees to disclose wages; 2. permit employees, without the written consent of the District, to disclose proprietary information, trade secret information or information that is otherwise subject to legal privilege or protected by law; 3. diminish any existing rights under the National Labor Relations Act; or 4. permit employees to disclose wage information of other employees to other organizations.

An employer may not retaliate against the employee for asserting rights or remedies set forth in this policy.

Employees may bring a civil action against the District for a violation of this policy. If a court finds that the District has violated this policy, the court may order reinstatement, back pay, restoration of lost service credits, if appropriate, and the expungement of any related adverse records of the 30

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

employee who was the subject of the violation.

3-15. Performance Review Depending on the employee's position and classification, the District endeavors to review performance every 12 months. However, a positive performance evaluation does not guarantee an increase in salary, a promotion or continued employment. Compensation increases and the terms and conditions of employment, including job assignments, promotions, and demotions, are determined by and at the discretion of the employee’s Supervisor. The District will only consider compensation increases annually as part of the Salary Administration Policy. This policy is found in Appendix A. In addition to these formal performance evaluations, the District encourages employees and supervisors to discuss job performance on a frequent and ongoing basis.

3-16. Record Retention and Data Practices The District acknowledges its responsibility to preserve information relating to its work. Failure on the part of employees to follow this policy can result in possible civil and criminal sanctions against the District and its employees and possible disciplinary action against responsible individuals (up to and including dismissal from employment of the employee). Each employee has an obligation to contact the Administrator to inform them of potential or actual litigation, external audit, investigation or similar proceeding involving the District that may have an impact on record retention protocols.

See Appendix D for Record Retention and Data Practices.

3-17. Job Postings The District is dedicated to assisting employees in managing their careers and reaching their professional goals through promotion opportunities. This policy outlines the job posting process which is in place for all employees. To be eligible to apply for an open position, employees must meet the following requirements: •

be a current, regular, full-time or part-time employee; have been in their current position for at least one (1) month;

•

maintain a performance rating of satisfactory or above;

•

not be on conduct/performance-related probation or warning; meet the job qualifications listed on the job posting; and

•

provide their current supervisor with notice prior to applying for the position.

The District reserves the right to seek applicants solely from outside sources or to post positions internally and externally simultaneously.

Section 4 - Benefits

31

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

4-1. Benefits Overview In addition to good working conditions and competitive pay, it is the District's policy to provide a comprehensive suite of benefits to all eligible employees. In keeping with this goal, each benefit program has been carefully devised. These benefits include paid time-off, such as vacation and holidays, insurance and other plan benefits. The District regularly evaluates the benefits programs and policies to best balance the needs of employees and the District.

District benefits, currently include paid holidays, Paid Time Off, paid family medical leave, lactation breaks, voting leave, worker’s compensation, long-term disability, basic life insurance and retirement (PERA).

Other optional supplemental benefits currently include insurance (health, dental, and supplemental life insurance), short-term disability, Health Flex Spending Account, and Dependent Care Flex Spending Account. These benefits are offered annually during open enrollment. A summary of these can be found in Appendix B. The next few pages contain a brief outline of the benefits programs the District provides employees and their families. Of course, the information presented here is intended to serve only as a guideline.

The descriptions of the other supplemental benefits, including insurance and other plan benefits, merely highlight certain aspects of the applicable plans for general information only. The details of those plans are spelled out in Appendix B. They are provided to employees at each enrollment period and available for review upon request from the Office Manager. It is the employee’s responsibility to inquire, understand and decide which benefits they will select from the provider.

This includes on-going questions about coverage and terms as the plan year progresses.

Additionally, the provisions of the plans, including eligibility and benefits provisions, are summarized in the plan descriptions (which may be revised annually). In the determination of benefits and all other matters under each plan, the terms of the official plan documents shall govern over the language of any descriptions of the plans, including the plans and this handbook.

Further, the District retains full discretionary authority with regard to administrative matters arising in connection with the plans and all issues concerning benefit terms, eligibility and entitlement.

While the District intends to maintain these employee benefits, it reserves the absolute right to modify, amend or terminate these benefits at any time and for any reason.

Employees should contact their supervisor with questions about District benefits or the service provider with questions about supplemental benefits.

4-2. Paid Holidays All employees will be paid for the following holidays: New Year's Day Martin Luther King, Jr. Day 32

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

President's Day Memorial Day Juneteenth Day Independence Day Labor Day Veterans' Day Thanksgiving Day Friday after Thanksgiving Christmas Day When holidays fall or are celebrated on a regular workday, all employees will receive one (1) day's pay at their regular straight-time rate. All employees who are called in to work on a holiday will receive one (1) day's pay at their regular straight-time rate, and an additional payment of straighttime for the actual time they work that day.

If a holiday falls on a Sunday, the following Monday will be the holiday for all regular full-time employees. If any holiday falls on a Saturday, the preceding Friday will be considered the holiday.

4-3. Paid Time Off The District appreciates how hard employees work and recognizes the importance of providing time for rest and relaxation. The District fully encourages employees to get this rest by taking paid time off. Time off under this policy includes extended time off, such as for a vacation, sickness or to handle personal affairs.

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

The Supervisor of newly hired employees will determine the Credited Years of Experience at the time of hire. Newly hired employees receive a one-time PTO allocation of 16 hours. These hours are available for use immediately upon the employee’s start date.

The maximum paid time off entitlement for part-time employees is pro-rated based on hours worked.

Accrued, unused paid time off, up to 720 hours, can be carried over to the following calendar year.

All PTO must be approved by an employee’s supervisor.

Paid time off may be used in increments no smaller than fifteen-minutes.

The District pays staff all unused accrued PTO upon separation, unless otherwise required by law.

Advanced but un-accrued paid time off will be deducted from the employee's final paycheck.

4-4. Family Medical Leave Benefits The District provides up to 12 weeks of leave for all medical conditions protected under the Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) for themselves or their family members. Of those 12 weeks, the District provides up to four (4) consecutive weeks of paid leave for employees who have worked at the District for at least 12 consecutive months.

Paid Medical Leave Benefits are solely a monetary benefit and not a leave of absence. Employees who will be out of work must also request a formal leave of absence. See the "Leaves of Absence" section of this handbook for more information. In addition, this benefit will be integrated with any applicable disability benefit offered by the District or required by law, and employees must apply for such benefit as a condition of receipt of any Paid Medical Leave Benefit under this policy.

4-5. Lactation Breaks The District will provide a reasonable amount of break time to accommodate employees desiring to express breast milk for their infant child, in accordance with and to the extent required by applicable law. The break time, if possible, must run concurrently with rest and meal periods already provided. The District’s wellness room is available for lactation breaks.

Employees should consult their Supervisor if they need break time and an area for this purpose.

Employees will not be discriminated against or retaliated against for exercising their rights under this policy.

4-6. Spiritual and Mental Health Breaks The District encourages employees to use personal rest breaks at their discretion. This includes time for prayer, meditation, or mindfulness. The District provides a wellness room for this purpose.

4-7. Voting Leave In the event employees do not have sufficient time outside of working hours to vote in federal, state and local elections, the employee may take off enough working time to vote. Such time will be paid.

34

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

This time should be taken at the beginning or end of the regular work schedule. Where possible, supervisors should be notified of when an employee intends to vote.

4-8. Workers' Compensation On-the-job injuries are covered by the District's Workers' Compensation Insurance Policy, which is provided at no cost. If employees are injured on the job, no matter how slightly, they should report the incident immediately to their Supervisor and safety officer. Failure to follow the District procedures may affect the ability of employees to receive Workers Compensation benefits.

This is solely a monetary benefit and not a leave of absence entitlement. Employees who need to miss work due to a workplace injury must also request a formal leave of absence. See the Leave of Absence sections of this handbook for more information.

4-9. Insurance Programs Eligible employees may participate in the District's insurance programs including health, health flex spending account, dependent care flex spending account, dental, and life insurance. Under these plans, eligible employees may purchase comprehensive health and other insurance coverage for themselves and their families, as well as other benefits. These benefits are offered annually during open enrollment, a summary of these can be found in Appendix B. Upon becoming eligible to participate in these plans, employees will receive plan descriptions describing the benefits in greater detail. Please refer to the plan for detailed information. It is the employee’s responsibility to inquire, understand and decide which benefits they will select with the provider. This includes ongoing questions about coverage and terms as the plan year progresses. Contact the Office Manager with questions about enrollment and plan administration.

4-10. Long-Term Disability Benefits Full-time employees are automatically enrolled in the Long-Term Disability plan, subject to all terms and conditions of the agreement between the District and the insurance carrier.

This is solely a monetary benefit and not a leave of absence. Employees who will be out of work must also request a formal leave of absence. See the Leave of Absence sections of this handbook for more information.

4-11. Short-Term Disability Benefits The District offers enhanced monetary short-term disability benefits at the expense of full-time employees. These enhanced monetary benefits are inclusive of any monetary workers' compensation or statutory short-term disability benefits. This benefit is offered annually during open enrollment, a summary can be found in Appendix B. This is not a leave of absence provision. Employees who will be out of work must request a leave of absence. See the Leave of Absence sections of this handbook for more information. Employees will be required to submit medical certification as requested by the District. Required medical certification under this policy may differ from the medical certification required for any leave of absence requested.

4-12. Employee Assistance Program Through its Health Insurance Program, the District provides the Employee Assistance Program, which offers qualified counselors to help employees cope with personal problems they may be facing.

4-13. Retirement Plan Eligible employees will automatically be enrolled in the District's retirement plan with the Minnesota Public Employee Retirement Association (PERA). Plan participants make pre-tax contributions to the retirement account and the District matches their contributions up to 6%.

Upon becoming eligible to participate in this plan, employees will receive a Summary Plan Description (SPD) describing the plan in greater detail. Please refer to the SPD for detailed plan information. Contact the Office Manager with questions about your enrollment or plan administration.

Eligible employees may also participate in a voluntary savings plan intended for long-term investing for retirement called the Minnesota Deferred Compensation Plan (MNDCP). Participation in the MNDCP must be initiated by the employee.

4-14. Professional Development Reimbursement The District encourages employees to improve work-related skills and abilities through training and development. Employees who are interested in pursuing work-related knowledge, skills, and ability education and training are required to receive prior approval from their Supervisor. Reimbursement for professional development is available for courses and sessions that directly relate to an employee’s current role and professional development plans. Professional development may include conferences, academic course work, seminars, webinars, professional registration, professional organization membership, training materials like books, manuals or web access to these or similar resources. For academic course work employees must receive a “C” grade or better to receive reimbursement.

Employees may be required to reimburse the District for professional development costs on a prorated basis for the 12 months prior to separation.

Section 5 –Leaves of Absence 5-1. Unpaid Personal Leave The District may grant a personal leave of absence without pay consistent with local, state and federal laws. Reasons for an unpaid personal leave of absence may include Military Leave, Family Military Leave, Bereavement Leave, Crime Victim’s Leave, Domestic Abuse Leave, or other personal reasons. A written request for a personal leave should be presented to an employee’s 36

CRWD Employee Handbook (Gallagher Recommendations)

Supervisor at least two (2) weeks before the anticipated start of the leave. If the leave is requested for medical or emergency reasons and employees are not eligible for leave under the federal Family Medical Leave Act (FMLA) or any state leave law, medical certification must be submitted.

The request will be considered on the basis of staffing requirements and the reasons for the requested leave, as well as performance and attendance records. Normally, a leave of absence will be granted for a period of up to twelve (12) weeks. However a personal leave may be extended if, prior to the end of leave, employees submit a written request for an extension to their Supervisor and the request is granted. During the leave, employees will not earn District benefits. The District will continue health insurance coverage during the leave, up to six months, if employees submit their share of the monthly premium payments to the District in a timely manner, subject to the terms of the plan documents.

Upon completion of the personal leave of absence, the District will attempt to return employees to their original job or a similar position, subject to prevailing organization considerations.

Reinstatement will be consistent with State and Federal Law. Failure to advise management of availability to return to work, failure to return to work when notified or a continued absence from work beyond the time approved by the District will be considered a voluntary resignation of employment.

Personal leave runs concurrently with any of the District-provided Short-Term and Long-Term Disability Leaves of Absence.

5-2. Paid Personal Leave (Jury Duty, Election Worker, and Bone Marrow) The District will provide paid personal leave for jury duty, volunteering as an election worker and bone marrow donation. All employees will receive paid time off from the District to perform these activities as required by law. Employees are expected, however, to provide proper notice of their request and verification of their service.

DATE: TO: FROM: RE:

August 25, 2021 CRWD Board of Managers Mark Doneux, Administrator Approve 2021 MAWD Resolutions

Background It is that time of year for MAWD members to submit policy recommendations through the MAWD resolutions process. At the last Board meeting, we discussed three issues to consider as possible MAWD Resolutions. Any resolution the District submits, should be well supported statewide, not divisive and be of the most benefit to MAWD and watershed management.

Issues Based on discussion at the last meeting, I have drafted the required information from the three possible MAWD resolutions for approval.

1.

Amend Session law Section 6, (a) (2) to state “seven-county metropolitan groundwater or watershed management plans that have a board-approved and local-government-adopted plan as authorized in Minnesota Statutes, section 103B.” 2.

Redirect Clean Water Funds from SWCD Local Capacity Services to BWSR Accelerated Implementation of Watershed Based Implementation Funding. Current Session Law Section 6, (q) provides “$12,000,000 the first year and $12,000,000 the second year are for payments to soil and water conservation districts for the purposes of Minnesota Statutes, sections 103C.321 and 103C.331. From this appropriation, each soil and water conservation district shall receive an increase in its base funding of $100,000 per year.” The title of this resolution was changed to be more specific on how the funds should be reallocated to BWSR Accelerated Implementation of Watershed Based Implementation Funding rather than solely on opposing the capacity funding.

3.

Require State Agencies to seek review and comment from affected local units of government on new or amended water management policies prior to adoption.

Staff will discuss and review these. Resolutions should be submitted by September 1st however the latest they can be submitted is September 15th, with prior notice.

Resolution Title: Metro WBIF - Clarify Session Law, Section 6 (a) to specifically call out Metro Watershed Based Implementation Funding to be directed to watershed management plans that have a board-approved and local-government-adopted plan as authorized in Minnesota Statutes, section 103B. Background that led to the submission of this resolution: Describe the problem you wish to solve and provide enough background information to understand the factors that led to the issue. Attach statutory or regulatory documents that may be helpful.

The Board of Water and Soil Resources (BWSR) has been piloting options for long term funding through its watershed based implementation funding (WBIF) program for the metro area, as it moves away from competitive based funding for clean water projects.

Pilot programming for watershed based implementation funding was implemented in the 2018-2019 and 2020-2021 biennium as a means to developing best practices for the long-term sustained implementation of WBIF. Throughout that time metro watershed management organizations have repeatedly provided critical insight, feedback, and concrete policy guidance to BWSR based on real world experience with implementing the pilot programs; measured against the stated goals of BWSR – stemming from prior recommendations from the Local Government Water Roundtable.

In addition to consistent feedback regarding the lack of specific and measurable goals, opaque process, and inconsistent communication from BWSR to stakeholders; metro watershed management organizations have repeatedly recommended that BWSR’s “watershed based” funding program be truly watershed based – relying on metropolitan watershed management plans – in order to achieve policy objectives of: • Ensuring a simplified administrative process; • Being driven by locally led collaboration; • Providing reliable support for local water management; • Being prioritized, targeted and measurable; and • Depending on watershed management plans to address the largest pollution threats and provide the greatest environmental benefit to each watershed.

In response to feedback, BWSR has communicated that the watershed based funding pilot program “is truly a pilot program,” and that it was committed to working with local government partners to leverage the feedback and learning gathered through the pilot process. Unfortunately, to date the consistent recommendations from metro watersheds have not been meaningfully or transparently integrated into BWSR’s policy evaluation or decision making.

Background Information 2021 MAWD Resolution Ideas for how this issue could be solved: Describe potential solutions for the problem. Provide references to statutes or rules if applicable.

Throughout the implementation of the WBIF pilot programs a variety of alternatives have been identified. These are outlined in the attached policy analysis matrix (Attachment A), and include: A. Allocate funds by BWSR defined 10 Metro Watershed Areas.

1. Eligible LGUs meet in each of the 10 WS Areas to decide distribution of funds. *Used in FY2020-2021 cycle B. Allocate funds by BWSR defined 33 Metro Watershed Areas.

1. Eligible LGUs meet in each of the 33 WS Areas to decide distribution of funds.

C. Allocate each eligible entity in Metro (WMO, SWCD, County, up to 47 entities) to fund each plan.

D. Metro-wide competitive grant for all eligible entities.

E. Allocate funds by BWSR defined 3 Metro Watershed Areas based on major river basins (MN, Miss, St Croix).

1. Eligible LGUs meet in each of the 3 WS Areas to decide distribution of funds.

F. Allocate funds to each of the 33 Metro Watershed Management Organizations with approved plans. WMO/WDs decide the distribution of funds.

G. Allocate funds to each of the 23 Metro Watershed Management Organizations with approved plans that are not part of a 1W1P. WD/WMOs decide the distribution of funds.

Efforts to solve the problem: Document the efforts you have taken to try to solve the issue. For example: have you spoken to state agency staff, legislators, county commissioners, etc? If so, what was their response?

We believe most or all Metro watershed District have or will support this approach. To date, Capitol Region, Rice Creek, Ramsey Washington Metro, Minnehaha Creek, Vadnais Lake WMO and South Washington have already sent a letter of support for this approach to Watershed Based Implementation Funding.

Resolution Title: Redirect Clean Water Funds from SWCD Local Capacity Services to BWSR Accelerated Implementation of Watershed Based Implementation Funding Please attach a signed and dated copy of the resolution to this submittal form. Thank you!

Background that led to the submission of this resolution: Describe the problem you wish to solve and provide enough background information to understand the factors that led to the issue. Attach statutory or regulatory documents that may be helpful.

For the past several biennium’s, the legislature has used $24 million in Clean Water Fund dollars to provide capacity funding for SWCD’s. There seems to be some general consensus that this is a stop gap measure until another, permanent, long-term funding option is developed for the SWCDs. In the mean, each biennium, $24 million of the Clean Water Fund is used for this purpose. It can be debated that this is even allowed under the Clean Water Fund, however, even it was allowed, it should not be directed to a single entity for capacity purposes, ie staff, equipment etc.

Ideas for how this issue could be solved: Describe potential solutions for the problem. Provide references to statutes or rules if applicable.

Redirect Clean Water Funds from SWCD Local Capacity Services to BWSR Accelerated Implementation of Watershed Based Implementation Funding Efforts to solve the problem: Document the efforts you have taken to try to solve the issue. For example: have you spoken to state agency staff, legislators, county commissioners, etc? If so, what was their response?

There have been no efforts to date for this change since it may be current MAWD policy to support this funding allocation from the Clean Water Fund.

Anticipated support or opposition: Who would be willing to partner with us on the issue? Who may be opposed to our efforts? (Ex. other local units of government, special interest groups, political parties, etc.)?

Most watershed districts would likely support this effort however SWCDs are likely to oppose a shift in this funding to the Accelerated Implementation grants for Watershed Based Implementation Funding. Given the statewide affect of this resolution it would be better coming from the MAWD Board directly.

Resolution Title: State Agencies required to seek review and comment from affected local units of government on new or amended water management policies prior to adoption.

Please attach a signed and dated copy of the resolution to this submittal form. Thank you!

Background that led to the submission of this resolution: Describe the problem you wish to solve and provide enough background information to understand the factors that led to the issue. Attach statutory or regulatory documents that may be helpful.

State agencies have varying requirements when adopting water management policies. Often, these policies can have an impact on local watershed organizations, especially when the local units of government are unaware of policies or policy updates. As an example, there is no requirement that BWSR solicit and consider local government input on water management policy. Why input is often requested, it is the usually in the form of a survey or other front-end approaches that may seem to address stakeholder input. In reality, the final draft policy is a critical document that local governments are interested in seeing to determine impacts of the policy. In many instances, those implementing state water management programs could make policies better through coordinated and collaborative input prior to adoption by the state.

Ideas for how this issue could be solved: Describe potential solutions for the problem. Provide references to statutes or rules if applicable.

Require State Agencies to seek review and comment from affected local units of government on new or amended water management policies prior to adoption.

Efforts to solve the problem: Document the efforts you have taken to try to solve the issue. For example: have you spoken to state agency staff, legislators, county commissioners, etc? If so, what was their response?

State Associations have requested draft policies prior to adoption but this process has been inconsistent, provides a very limited window for input and not established to consistently and thorough consider local government input.

Anticipated support or opposition: Who would be willing to partner with us on the issue? Who may be opposed to our efforts? (Ex. other local units of government, special interest groups, political parties, etc.)?

Local units of government, ie. Watershed districts, counties, SWCDs and Cities would likely support this but may have opposition from state agencies.

September 1, 2021 Board Meeting V. Action Item - F) Approve TBI Repair Project Plans and Authorize Bidding (Eleria)

DATE: TO: FROM: RE:

August 25, 2021 CRWD Board of Managers Anna Eleria, Division Manager Approve Plans and Authorize Bidding for TBI Repair Project from St. 28+65 to 52+80

Background In June 2020, CRWD’s Board of Managers approved an engineering work order for the design of repairs in approximately 2,000 feet of the Trout Brook Storm Sewer Interceptor near Phalen Boulevard and I-35E in Saint Paul. The deficiencies in this section of TBI include deteriorating concrete, exposed reinforcement, holes, cracks and fractures, and sediment build up in the tunnel.

Issues Barr Engineering has completed the design of repairs for TBI Station 28+65 to 52+80 (Electronic draft plans enclosed). Primary repairs involve filling cracks with grout, sealing exposed reinforcement, repairing eroded concrete tunnel and invert, and repairing access hatches. In addition, there is a bid alternate for placing soil cover over a 40-foot section of tunnel that is exposed at the surface. This section is located on BNSF Railroad property and we have applied for a BNSF temporary occupancy permit. Based on conversation with local BNSF staff, we anticipate no issues obtaining the permit by the time of construction, however, as a precaution, this repair item is a bid alternate.

The engineer’s opinion of probable construction cost is $1.02 million with range from $914,000 to $1.17 million (enclosed table). The 2021 engineering and construction budget is $950,000 (Fund #415-20820) and the proposed 2022 budget is $640,000. CRWD staff anticipates bid letting in early September and holding a three-week bidding period. Construction of the repairs may commence in mid-fall 2021 and extend through early winter 2022.

Actions Requested Approve plans and authorize bidding for the TBI Repair Project – Station 28+65 to 52+80.

September 1, 2021 V. Action Items G.) CRWD Field Guide for Working with Artists (Schwantes) DATE: TO: FROM: RE:

August 25, 2021 Board of Managers Lindsay Schwantes, Community Outreach Coordinator CRWD Field Guide for Working with Artists

Background In 2010, the Board of Managers approved engaging the services of Public Art Saint Paul and Christine Bauemler as CRWD Watershed Artist in Residence. As part of this initiative, a report was drafted called The Watershed Language of Art to help provide direction on how art can enhance the District’s mission.

Art and artistic consultation has since been integrated into many District projects and programs including the Green Line green infrastructure practices, Midway Peace Park and many elements in our new office as well as adding a Public Art Program to our annual budget.

In July 2020, former Board Manager Seitu Jones, CRWD Watershed Artist in Residence, Christine Baeumler, Mark Doneux, Anna Eleria, Jessica Bromelkamp, Lindsay Schwantes from staff, and CAC member Pat Cavanaugh participated in a Ripple Mapping Exercise evaluation of CRWD’s Public Art Program with the goal of providing direction on how best art can further our mission. Artist in Residence, Christine Baeumler used the exercise to draft a set of recommendations and guidance for enhancing the District’s Public Art Program and improving the integration of art into other projects and programs and these Public Art Program Guiding Principles in were approved by the Board in September 2020.

These Guiding Principles led to the development of a Field Guide for Working with Artists. This document was drafted by CRWD Artist in Residence with input from staff and members of the Communications and Community Committee of the Board with the goal of providing CRWD staff, Board and CAC as well as partners, a framework for how art and artists can be integrated into our projects and programs to further our mission. This includes programs like the Artist in Residence model as well as other ways of working with artists for CRWD to consider through the Public Art Program.

Issues Following a meeting with Managers Murphy and Sullivan Janzen in March 2021, we continued to finalize the text and pursue artistic elements as part of the final field guide. A digital copy of the final draft of Capitol Region Watershed District’s Field Guide for Working with Artists is attached and two hard copies of this final draft will be available at the September 1 Board meeting to pass around. Staff will present this document at the meeting as well as any final edits that have been suggested by staff, CRWD’s Artist in Residence and the Communications and Community Committee members from the Board.

An Introduction

to Capitol Region Watershed District’s Field Guide for Working with Artists

Purpose The Field Guide for Working with Artists outlines recommendations and existing models of working with artists to facilitate integrating art and artists into the work of Capitol Region Watershed District (CRWD). CRWD’s mission is to protect, manage and improve the water resources of the District. Integrating art and artists into the projects and programs of CRWD helps us achieve this mission by creating connections between water resource managers, engineers, community partners and our residents, resulting in more clean water projects and actions. The Field Guide provides a roadmap for CRWD staff and board members, acknowledging that these approaches may change

over time. It is intended as a flexible, living document rather than a static list of prescriptive recommendations.

This guide covers a broad range of art approaches that include a residency model, short term engagement, internships, commissions, and inclusion of artists on project teams. A menu of options for identifying, engaging, and contracting with artists is included as well as important considerations for contracting for services. Additional resources including a detailed description of the history of the Artist in Residence program at CRWD can be found at capitolregionwd.org/watershed-artist-inresidence.

5

The term “Art” is often conceived as an image or object created by a single individual, such as a painting, sculpture, or photograph. While this more conventional idea of art persists, artistic practice has expanded to include a wide variety of approaches that are often inter-disciplinary and socially engaged in nature. Art thus serves as a catalyst to facilitate engagement in place-based, environmental, educational, and social justice work. Artists can play a key role in reimagining how to care for the vital living systems and inhabitants of the city — Water, Earth, Air, plant/ animal species, and people-- and how we can shape a healthy and vibrant watershed.

– Christine Baeumler

6

Another Way of Knowing

Art can also help to shift perceptions and explore different ways of knowing and can eventually lead to changing our relationship and behavior toward the environment. Dakota and Anishinaabeg people, as well as other members of the Indigenous communities, teach that Water is a Relative, rather than a resource. This more relational way of thinking can have a deep impact on our orientation to the places we inhabit and inform our choices about how we act to protect land, water, and air quality.

Art can also provide a significant platform for dialogue and engagement. The arts often communicate through emotional, tactile, metaphorical, and experiential means.

The arts encompass a broad range of practices including, for example, visual art, sculpture, poetry, storytelling, theatre, dance, music, video, sound art, and graphic design. Much contemporary artwork is also interactive, interdisciplinary, collaborative, and participatory. By engaging artists from a variety of art disciplines, CRWD can expand its ability to communicate through the arts and involve a broader, more diverse audience to fulfill the mission of environmental stewardship. Further, the arts provide a mode of thinking about discovering solutions in innovative ways. Ongoing dialogue with artists can facilitate the inherent creativity of staff and board members participating in the various facets of CRWD’s work.

7

Guiding Principles for CRWD’s Public Art Program An interdisciplinary

and socially engaged Art approach can impact how we think about problems and act out solutions.

How can creative processes themselves be infused into different aspects of the District’s work? These principles were drafted after conducting a Ripple Effect Mapping (REM) exercise in 2020 with the goal of providing direction on how best art can further our mission. REM is a method of evaluation and data gathering used by the University of Minnesota for community development and involves engaging a focus group in appreciative inquiry interviews, and a group mapping and brainstorming session that generates a mind map of the ideas shared. This data is then clarified, coded and analyzed by a professional.

Integrating art and artists into the work of the District not only adds beauty, but creates opportunities to engage with our communities in new and creative ways, helping bring water back to the consciousness of our residents.

Institutionalize the role of Art and artists into the fabric of CRWD’s mission, identify themes, and goals throughout the organization. Share CRWDs innovative approaches with other water quality organizations and the general public.

Identify projects and programs in which art/artists can contribute to (and potentially transform) the work through innovative ways of thinking.

Use Art to engage with the wider community through hands-on engagement, aesthetic design, and educational materials and interactions.

Whenever possible integrate Art into Capital Improvement Projects (CIP). Explore the role of artists early in CIP planning through contracting and Request for Proposals processes. Art could play a significant role in drawing attention to CIPs that are below ground as well as those on the surface that seem no different from traditional infrastructure or features.

Consider how Art could play a role in CRWD’s diversity, equity and inclusion goals. Examples include engaging a more comprehensive range of artists, introducing different cultural ways of knowing, celebrating, and experiencing water (for example, as a Relative rather than a Resource), and lifting up, including voices that have been marginalized in the past and connecting CRWD to a more diverse audience.

“...how artists might make the invisible visible to achieve improved water quality” 10

Field Guide To Working With Artists

Watershed Artist in Residence Program The Watershed Artist in Residence (AiR) program is predicated on long term engagement with CRWD that reflects a foundational understanding of the mission, goals and values of CRWD as well as the work of the different divisions.

The Watershed Districts Artist- inResidence (AiR) program for CRWD was launched as a partnership in 2010 between Ramsey Washington Metro Watershed Districts (RWMWD) and Public Art Saint Paul (PASP). According to the Central Corridor Art Plan “The broad goals of this collaboration between the Watershed Districts and PASP were to open a dialogue with water resource managers about how artists might make the invisible visible to achieve water quality improvement and to identify initiatives.”

A lecture by artist Cliff Garten on “The Expressive Potential of the Watershed” kicked off this initiative. Subsequently PASP convened a workshop that engaged a broad cross-section of water quality

experts, environmentalists, social scientists and artists. Artist and former CRWD board member Seitu Jones was a key advocate in creating an AiR position at CRWD, and inspired by the Public Art Saint Paul, City Artist-in-Residence model. This initial partnership and AiR work led to the creation of the Watershed Language of Art plan and a continued presence of a CRWD AiR.

Recruitment and Applicant Review The recruitment of the Watershed AiR can be done through a Request for Qualifications process that combines an open and invitational call for potential candidates. To create an opportunity that ensures a diverse group of applicants, 11

the call should go out to organizations and groups that can reach a broad group of artists. A description of the position, scope of work, expectations and term could be shared through locally based arts organizations, as well as to list servs, and on social media platforms. A link to CRWD’s website should be included in the call for artists unfamiliar with the organization.

CRWD should be attentive to some of the barriers that may impact an artist’s ability to commit to an AiR position.

The AiR is not a full-time position and most artists would need to have other employment and may also have family obligations. While it is important that the AiR is flexible to work with staff during daytime work hours, and to establish this individual as a member of CRWD’s team, it would be worth noting that this requirement may be a limiting factor for artists who have work schedules that conflict with CRWD work hours.

The review process should include a consideration of materials such as an artist resume, statement of interest, description of their expertise and how that work can enhance CRWD’s work and mission and images of artwork and projects. The review committee should include staff, members of the Board of Managers Communication and Community Committee and Community Advisory Committee (CAC) representative as well as an external review member (ideally, an artist or public art professional that is familiar with the work of CRWD).

12

Position Term and Artist Role While the term of the AiR would be determined by mutual agreement of CRWD and the artist, ideally the candidate would be able to make a three-year commitment. This reflects the need for an onboarding process and developing familiarity with the work of the divisions and working relationships with the staff. Since the intention of the AiR is a long-term engagement rather than one based on discreet projects, a minimum of three years allows them to more deeply understand and work collaboratively with staff to integrate the arts into larger projects and understand how CRWD fulfills its mission.

The role of the AiR is to carry out CRWD’s Public Art Guiding Principles and to understand the big picture of how art is being integrated into the fabric of the watershed’s work. One of the key lessons in the AiR process is to involve artists “upstream” in projects and programs. Early engagement creates more opportunity not only for the art to be more fully integrated, but for the creative process to have more impact in the way the project or program is conceived. Engagement that happens later can result in art that is more about enhancing a project or program rather than providing an innovative perspective.

In all of these cases, each AiR will have a unique way of merging the work of CRWD and the artists own expertise and interests.

The AiR will engage with CRWD’s staff and partners in two phases. First “upstream”, the AiR is integrated into the humming ecosystem of CRWD’s projects and goals to provide a creative perspective in the development and execution of District initiatives.

Second, “downstream”, where the AiR will plant new seeds by introducing and implementing work of their own creation. The following page lists an array of ways the AiR can be integrated into this flow.

13

In-Depth Opportunities for the AiR Serve as an on-site or remote colleague for staff to consult with to gain an artistic or creative perspective and work a member of CRWD’s team.

Identify and facilitate art related interdisciplinary work and tools for citizen science and engagement.

Assist in developing the CRWD Public Art Policy

Execute the annual work plan provided by staff that outlines the goals, priority projects and programs and activities for the upcoming year.

Assist with development and implementation of art related programming in CRWD’s Office - Trout Brook Room Present opportunities for art to help further CRWD’s mission and build relationships with community members of the watershed.

Provide guidance for CRWD commissioned projects including Capital Improvement Projects by identifying or working with artists.

Plan and execute an art project or program designed by the AiR and using their unique expertise and skills.

Assist in planning and coordination of CRWD hosted events for or led by artists.

Investigate how art can be a tool for implementing goals outlined in CRWD’s Watershed Management Plan and other plans of the district.

Assist in sharing the work CRWD is doing and has done with the Arts community to a broader audience.

14

AiR On-boarding Process and Staff Support One of the unique opportunities provided to the AiR is a thorough introduction to the watershed and the work of all of the divisions, including the work of the Administrator and CRWD’s Board. This investment in time to get to know the watershed, individuals and the types of work that staff engage in upfront has proven extremely valuable. This orientation prepares the AiR to work effectively as part of the CRWD team and also to increase the ability to recognize art opportunities across the divisions of CRWD.

Orientation: • Shadow staff by going into the field to observe monitoring practices, visit Best Management Practices and significant sites of ongoing engagement.

• Familiarize with CRWD’s water resources, public spaces and key sites by spending independent time exploring and connecting with these areas (may include Willow Reserve, Bruce Vento Nature Sanctuary, Trout Brook, Mississippi River, Swede Hollow Park, Como Lake, Lake McCarrons and other urban natural spaces).

• Participate in safety training (such as confined space training) that allows the AiR to experience the watershed both above and below ground.

• Attend some of CRWD’s monthly Board or CAC meetings.

• Attend CRWD panels and artist lectures.

• Review of CRWD’s plans (10year Watershed Management Plan; Diversity, Equity and Inclusion Plan; Communication and Engagement Plan).

• Learn about the cultural history and current demographics of CRWD and unique cultural perspectives related to water.

• Gather and source a variety of perspectives on CRWD’s work. This could be done by hosting listening sessions with community members (grantees, local water activists, residents, Board Managers, CAC members, City of Saint Paul AiR).

• Participate, when appropriate, in meetings with Partner Grant recipients.

• Meet with CRWD’s Minnesota Water Stewards.

• Attend Metro Watershed Partners gatherings and become more familiar with the work of other watershed districts.

• Attend local, regional or national conference on water quality issues, including but not limited to the Minnesota Association of Watershed District’s Annual Conference, MN Water Resources Conference and the International Low Impact Development Conference.

Staff as a guide While the Artist-in-Residence is responsible for evaluating and engaging in activites, it is expected that the staff will maintain consistent, helpful, and timely communication with the AiR, include the AiR in important meetings with staff and consultants, and create a welcoming atmosphere. AiR management and communication tasks include: • Serving as a staff point person who will maintain regular contact with the AiR and facilitate monthly office hours and check-ins with staff from different divisions on upcoming projects by email and in-person.

• Developing an annual work plan to set the goals, priorities and activities for the upcoming year.

16

• Coordinating an annual meeting to review work over the past year and what was executed from the work plan and offer insight to staff for setting goals and priorities for the work plan for the following year.

• Inviting and coordinating AiR attendance at Board or CAC meetings pertaining to projects and programs that the AiR is involved in.

• Facilitating of project based check-ins with specific staff involved and including the AiR in initial meetings with external partners where staff identify potential for a role for an artist or an artistic element.

17

Developing & Deepening Relationships with Artists Other Than the AiR CRWD can actively encourage a community of practice for artists who are interested in water quality, environment and socially engaged approaches to art. By convening artists at CRWD’s office or online, CRWD can create a deeper, more inclusive and diverse pool of artists that have the familiarity and capacity to work with CRWD. The following are possible approaches to engaging and utilizing these collaborations:

Workshops An annual workshop for artists supported by CRWD to introduce the work of the district and potential opportunities and sites for engagement. Conversely, artists are often looking for partners for grant opportunities, such as the Minnesota State Arts Board Artist Initiative grant, and the artists could provide resources such as other sources of funding to work on projects.

Panel Discussions Panels of experts from different fields, supported by CRWD in conjunction with other organizations, could provide interdisciplinary insight into watershed management and the arts. These panels could be open to the public and provide a way to build a community of practice across disciplines.

CRWD could partner with other arts organizations or colleges/universities to sponsor speakers. Making these panel discussions available on CRWD’s website or social media channels would help to share these conversations with a wider audience.

Artist Lecture Series A lecture series through partnerships with local arts organizations or educational institutions in coordination with the AIR, would feature local, national, and international artists who are engaged in water related projects.

These talks could be offered as live events (in-person or on a virtual platform) and be archived on CRWD’s website, (with the permission of the speaker).

This archive would serve as a valuable tool for expanding the visibility and a sharing of approaches locally, regionally, nationally and even internationally.

18

Collaborative Event Planning CRWD, with assistance of the AiR, can collaborate with other science/artsbased centers in the Twin Cities (such as the Institute on Environment and Institute for Advanced Study at the University of Minnesota, the Bell Museum, Minnesota Science Museum, Springboard for the Arts, Public Art Saint Paul, FORECAST, and with other local arts organizations) to host water related events and speakers that could leverage resources and expand audiences.

Communicate with Local Arts and Cultural Organizations Ensure that CRWD communication efforts and opportunities are reaching local arts organizations. If time and capacity permits, working on building relationships with these partners may result in more meaningful engagement between artists and CRWD. Paid Internships Internships are a valuable way to introduce students and emerging artists to the work of CRWD and how the arts can be deployed in this work. The AiR could work with interns in a mentorship capacity as the interns assist on projects. Some opportunities/examples include: • Curatorial studies students could assist in rotating exhibitions in the Trout Brook Room.

• Environmental education students could work with youth on water-related citizen science initiatives.

• Interns could research arts-based approaches to connect the work of CRWD with place-based and socially engaged activities.

• Printmaking and graphic arts students could be engaged in the creation of signs and printed materials.

• Landscape Architecture, Ecology, and Socially Engaged Art students could participate in site specific design and engagement programming.

Our district is committed to engaging a broad and diverse pool of artists in inviting, compassionate, and meaningful ways.

Engaging Artists in CRWD Projects & Programs Stepping stones to building relationships

Establish a CRWD Public Art Policy The establishment of a CRWD Public Art Policy would assist in streamlining the process of working with artists other than the AiR on individual projects and programs and create a consistent way of identifying, inviting, reviewing, contracting, compensating and working with a broad and diverse pool of artists. As part of this policy, CRWD would establish and maintain a contact list of artists and arts organizations with special attention to those representing or working with Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC). The list would be used when sharing new opportunities and could be made available to entities such as engineering firms and other contractors who would like to include artists on their teams. The CRWD Public Art Policy will also offer guidance on involving artists in the District’s Request for Proposal process by adding related skills to our requested list of qualifications as well as guidance on the Request for Proposal (RFP) process such as requiring an artist on a project team or having CRWD engage an artist directly. These are two ways that artists can be integrated into the RFP process.

21

Build protoc0ls that support independent artist relationships Contract Once developed, CRWD’s Public Art Policy would provide specific guidelines for contracting that follows CRWD’s Procurement and Contracting Policy and Guidance. Clear communication with the artists regarding compensation, timelines and expectations are important to create a relationship of mutual understanding and benefits.

Payment Unlike other types of contractors, artists are often working with more challenging financial situations. Artists may need partial upfront payment for materials and labor and to be paid in installments rather than wait until the end of the project to be fully paid. Following are considerations for how to manage payments to artists.

- The payment cycle and process should be agreed upon in the contract so that the artist and CRWD have a clear understanding and expectations about when the artist will be paid.

- Paying for materials or other fabrication costs can be a financial burden for artists. CRWD and the artist should agree upon the timing for reimbursement of materials and costs of fabrication.

Insurance The consultant requirements for insurance have been an ongoing issue, not only for the AiR but for other commissioned artists and consultants. Given the requirements as a government entity, this may be challenging, but many artists do not carry insurance policies for their practice, insurance companies are reluctant to agree to policies with large liabilities to individuals and the annual cost may be prohibitive. Finding more flexible options to address these insurance requirements for artists working as individuals would help to streamline processes to ensure it is not a financial burden or barrier for artists.

CRWD should determine and work with the artist to see what kind of insurance is required for a project and if the cost of insurance can in some way be addressed.

22

Sharing CRWD’s Art Programming with Partners CRWD’s innovative integration of the arts and its AiR program would be valuable to share with other watershed districts, municipalities, and agencies. Not only would this make the work of CRWD more visible, but it would encourage other organizations to consider art as a catalyst for water quality infrastructure, education and outreach. Opportunities might include: • Presentations about CRWD work at local, regional or national conferences on water quality issues and at art conferences • Interactive Exhibits & Signage • Trout Brook Room Programming

Final Thoughts On collaboration, arts and the environment

It Begins with a Single Spark CRWD’s journey of integrating art and artists into its work has been one of continued growth both in terms of developing new partnerships and relationships in our communities as well as expanding how we define art and create engagement opportunities throughout the District. Partnering with artists has offered new ways of envisioning, connecting, and valuing our precious water resources, while recognizing different perspectives and ways of knowing.

The arts can powerfully convey stories which serve to inspire residents to learn about our water, natural resources and clean water projects above and below ground in new and innovative ways. This may include observing a kinetic sculpture to understand the speed at which water moves throughout a storm sewer tunnel, interacting with an exhibit to see how water moves in a natural versus man-made system, or learning about wildlife that depends on clean water through a scavenger hunt stamped into the sidewalk. Art can inspire a personal understanding and appreciation for the beauty, power and cultural meaning of water.

This work began with a spark ignited by former CRWD Board Manager and Saint Paul Artist Seitu Jones, who encouraged us to explore the many ways art and artists can enhance our work – making it more beautiful and impactful, and helping us engage more of our residents, particularly those we have not yet met. It is the result of a collaborative, reflective process, designed to provide insights and tools for the District and its colleagues, partners and others to continue incorporating the arts and artists into their work. While we do not know what new and creative projects lie ahead, we know that they have the potential to reach our communities in new and meaningful ways.

We welcome your questions and hope you find this Field Guide helpful on your journey.

September 1, 2021 V. Action Items H.) 2022 Minnesota Water Stewards Program (Schwantes)

DATE: TO: FROM: RE:

August 25, 2021 CRWD Board of Managers Lindsay Schwantes, Community Outreach Coordinator CRWD 2022 Minnesota Water Stewards Program

Background The Minnesota Water Stewards program trains, certifies and supports community leaders to install pollution prevention projects that educate community members and reduce polluted runoff. CRWD recruited its first class of Stewards in 2016 and currently has six cohorts and 18 active stewards.

Update Freshwater updated the program name to Minnesota Water Stewards and transitioned to an online training curriculum in 2021 in response to feedback from partner organizations as well as challenges with in-person gatherings due to COVID 19. Freshwater was also able to reduce the sponsorship fee per steward from $2,500 to $1,500 with these changes. The training is now held fully online with opportunities for scheduled in-person or virtual check-ins and kick-off and closing gatherings hosted by Freshwater with training taking place January – May. Staff from the Communications and Engagement and Planning Projects and Grants teams, work with stewards to fulfill their capstone projects of an outreach initiative as well as being part of a stormwater BMP project.

Staff have also engaged certified stewards to assist with the inspection of CRWD’s boulevard rain garden projects, and offer site consultations to homeowners with rain gardens seeking help with minor maintenance tasks such as plant ID, and minor weed pulling inlet cleaning. Stewards are recruited to help at community events and promote our stewardship grant programs and have started a pilot collaboration with Ramsey County Master Gardeners. We continue to explore meaningful ways to engage these volunteers in CRWD’s work and believe these stewards have led to a greater awareness of CRWD’s work and role in our community and more clean water projects and actions. Staff will continue to assess how best to manage this program while keeping in mind staff capacity and CRWD priorities.

Requested Action Authorize the Administrator to enter into an Agreement with Freshwater to host up to six Minnesota Water Stewards for the 2022 program year at a cost of $1,500 per steward with a total not to exceed $9,000. enc: Freshwater 2022 Promotional Flyer W:\07 Programs\Edu-Outreach\Minnesota Water Stewards\2022\BM_2022Minnesota Water Stewards.docx
