ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 22, 2017 7 plans, as amended by the ten (10) conditions in the May 22, 2017, Report to the City Council. Councilmember McClung proposed an addition Condition 11 which would limit the wall signage to 500 square feet. AMENDMENT: Councilmember McClung requested an amendment to the motion to add Condition 11, limiting the wall signage for the Health Partners Clinic to 500 square feet. The amendment failed for lack of a second. Councilmember Holmes stated she fully supported the request and believed the proposed improvements would be a nice addition to the clinic. Mayor Grant agreed the proposed enhancements and signage would improve the clinics visibility. Councilmember Holden called the question. The motion carried 4-1 (McClung opposed). B. Rice Creek Watershed District Maintenance Agreement for Stormwater Management Facilities – 3930 and 3928 Northwoods Drive Senior Planner Bachler stated Health Partners has requested a Master and Final PUD in order to complete a building addition and parking lot expansion at their existing medical clinic located at 3930 and 3928 Northwoods Drive. There is an existing stormwater pond on the subject property that serves the development as well as other properties on Northwoods Drive. A Grant of Permanent Easement for the stormwater pond was signed by the City and Health Partners in 2010. Under the easement, the City is responsible for maintaining the non-landscaped portion of the stormwater pond, including the inlet and outlet structures and removal of debris. Senior Planner Bachler explained the proposed Health Partners project requires a permit from the Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD). One of the conditions of approval for the RCWD permit is that an updated Maintenance Agreement for the existing stormwater pond be approved. Since the City is responsible for the pond’s maintenance under the Grant of Permanent Easement, the Maintenance Agreement would be between the City and RCWD. Maintenance of these facilities is required by the City’s Minnesota Pollution Control Agency Storm Water Pollution Prevention Permit (SWPPP). It is also consistent with Public Works policies to adequately maintain infrastructure. MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Holmes seconded a motion to approve the Maintenance Agreement for Stormwater Management Facilities between the Rice Creek Watershed District and City of Arden Hills for the regional stormwater pond located at 3930 and 3928 Northwoods Drive. The motion carried (5-0).
