Representatives of Ramsey County and SPACC will attend the August 19, 2013, City Council work session meeting to provide additional information on the TRP and itsactivities. 11 Page of AGENDA ITEM B MEMORANDUM DATE: August 19, 2013 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Patrick Klaers, City Administrator FROM: Amy Dietl, Deputy Clerk SUBJECT: 2014 Fee Schedule Background The City Council annually establishes a fee schedule for administrative, building construction, liquor licensing, copying of maps and ordinances, park and recreation facility usage, planning and zoning, utilities, business licenses, false alarms, utility fees, and other miscellaneous permits and penalties that are enforced by the City. Below is a brief recap of the fee changes in recent years. Increases in 2011: Planning and Zoning Final Planned Unit Development Administrative Fee o Erosion Control Fee o Utility Use Charges Residential Surface Water Commercial Water Commercial Sanitary Sewer and Surface Water Changes and Increases in 2012: Park and Recreation Fees Youth Athletic Association field rental fees added o Adult/club intramural field rental added o Non-resident and non-profit pavilion fees o Planning and Zoning Final Plats o Comprehensive Plan Amendments o 13 Page of PUD Master Plans o Site Plan Reviews o Utility Rates (including SAC and WAC) Increases in 2013: Five percent increase of all fees (except fees set by State Statute) Utility hookup charges Tobacco sales license Recycling fees Utility rates Return check fee Changes and Additions in 2013: Building and Construction Fees State Statute 326B.153 added to fee schedule o fee o schedule Recreational outdoor archery range license added Adjustments to false alarms were made Discussion Staff has reviewed the fee schedule and evaluate Arden Hills rates to those of other cities. A few changes are being recommended, and are noted in red bold print on the attached 2014 Fee Schedule. A brief explanation of the reason for the changes is provided below. Miscellaneous/Retail Activities At its January 22, 2013, work session, the Council discussed charitable gambling. Although the City Code allows for the City to impose a local gambling tax up to three percent on all organizations licensed to conduct lawful gambling in the City, that fee has not been imposed to date. The consensus among the Council at that time was to impose the three percent local gambling tax going forward beginning in 2014 when processing gambling license renewals. As such, staff proposes adding the local gambling tax as well as the local gambling fund amounts to the 2014 Fee Schedule. Utility Rates The utility rates and charges (i.e. SAC/WAC fees) proposed increase is 2%, and surface water charges per quarter is a 15% proposed increase per City Council action on December 10, 2012, when the plan for future utility rates was approved. 23 Page of Requested Action Staff would like Council feedback on the proposed 2014 Fee Schedule.

Their objective is to purchase the building, and as leases expire, fully occupy the structure within 5 to 15 years. During this time Bethel University would slowly expand their higher education uses, including administrative offices, general and specialized classrooms, meeting rooms and other general educational uses into the space. As part of their due diligence prior to purchasing the site, Bethel University intends to apply for a conditional use permit that would allow the entire site to be converted to educational use. The Country Financial property, currently a multi-tenant building, is approximately 200,000 square feet in size on two tracts of land that total 40.68 acres. The property is located within the B2 Zoning District, where higher educational uses by conditional use permit are allowed. In June of 2013, the City Council approved CUP #13-008 to allow a higher educational use within the Country Financial building. The approval granted Bethel University the ability to occupy 26,000 square feet of space in the building, and required Bethel University to seek City approval for any expansion or intensification of the use. Discussion Topics 1.Consolidation of uses and other buildings used by Bethel University. 2.Safe connections between campuses (i.e. trails and sidewalks).

A strategic plan is the corners Strategic Goals these are being implemented and assessed. More important, plans being developed with constituent input, are being shared broadly motivating both campus action and investor interest. One component of this planning culture is the campus master plan between where Bethel University is today and where it would like future, directed by those strategic goals and initiatives. Moreo will create opportunities for more intentional, strategic uses o First Impressions and Vision for the Future Bethel University’s main campus is located in Arden Hills, Minne northern suburb of the Twin Cities. This location provides the a suburban and urban opportunity. Maintaining the natural beauty o has been an institutional commitment since its creation. With th Swedish Baptist heritage that focuses on putting faith into acti into symbols. Members of the campus community share a vision of a student expe that creates belonging (feeling valued, respected, supported and safe), transformation (intellectual, spiritual, and social), and challenging experiences value the intimacy and interaction afforded by the spaces on cam recognize a general lack of space, inadequate instructional spac absence of places that support the desired student experience. Conceptual Master Plan Strategic goals, space analyses, site and facilities assessments Quality educational work with a variety of campus constituencies resulted in a set o environments themes to guide the campus master plan. These themes unite aroun Identity and core concepts and guide the plan through three phases: intentionality Organizing and integrating spaces on campus and assigning limited space strategically. Organized and integrated Creating quality educational environments that are the right size campus Using spaces and places to build and support identity and intentionality so that the entire University tells the Bethel story. 4 Phase 1: Breathing Room Bethel has an immediate need for space inside and outside; highe needs are classrooms, science labs, and a new Wellness Center. Phase 1 Goals begins with the strategic use of limited vacant space. 1. room for new classrooms on the lower level of the Hagstrom Center. 2. In phases, reassign spaces in the Academic Center to address cri needs in the sciences. This is an interim solution to a problem ultimately solved by the construction of a new science building. 3. Reconstruct Bethel Drive to create a more attractive pedestrian focused campus core. 4. Add 100 parking spaces to the lots at the north residence village as a 5. with synthetic turf and add lights athletics, intramurals, and recreation. 6.

Re-engineer the exterior envelope of Edgren and Bodien Halls and construct a connector between them that can serve as Freshman Hi common space and rooms for Resident Assistants. 6. Renovate Nelson Hall and add two units totalling at least 130 new beds north of Nelson (50 additional beds will require demolition of Arden Village West). 7.

Bethel’s terrai physical boundaries created by Lake Valentine, a railroad track University are planned with four intentions: to help organize an the campus, especially from north to south; to provide opportuni athletics, intramurals and recreation; to provide ample parking enrollment and program growth; to allow the Bethel community to the natural landscape of the campus. Reconstructing Bethel Drive is central to the campus master plan and the design will serve several purposes. Create a more attractive entry and procession through the campus Move vehicles on a roadway designed and constructed for the appropriate speed. Get pedestrians across Bethel Drive on clearly marked crosswalks with footpaths and sidewalks available at the right locations (t especially important for students living on the south side of ca Create footbridges across the creek to intentional entry points between the Academic Center and the Clauson Center and into the new south addition to the Hagstrom Center. the tour through campus by adding plazas behind the Clauson Cent the Hagstrom Center, and the new business-economics addition. Make the courtyard visible and inviting beneath the Clauson- Hagstrom connector. Identify and create pathways that connect the core of campus with the Sports and Recreation Center, Royal Stadium, and the Projects surrounding the courtyard should include site work that develops that space as both a pass-through and gathering spot. In particu demolition of the Arden Village West townhouses will permit new to sit further away from the center of the courtyard and create open gathering space. Vehicular access should be restricted to s emergency vehicles only. A new upper class residence hall is constructed northwest of Lissner Hall. This new facility should be located as close to parking an possible to preserve the wooded area behind it, which is used as study area. Plazas and pedestrian walks connect the new facility since they will share common space in the new residence hall. 8 The planned shift in use of all north apartments (Chalberg,Turnwall, Danielson, Wessman, Widen, and Wingblade) for College of Arts an Sciences students creates the need for outdoor recreational and spaces. Site features should connect housing to the lake; adjoin space supports outdoor student life programs and activities. Parking lots and structures should be designed keeping in mind both remain at or below 25% of the total campus square footage. Plann estimates suggest the need for at least 400 additional parking s changed. Two new parking areas are created: one 100-stall surfac becomes part of the parking inventory at the north apartments. A garage of approximately 400 stalls is constructed either in the or into the terrain behind Heritage Hall. Site planning should e pedestrians have designated paths. The north lot should be conne the future science center with a walking and biking path along t Site work near the Sports and Recreation Center provides Bethel’athletic teams a stronger physical identity and better facilities. Improv intramurals and recreation and soccer practice and competitions. Designers will need to max downlighting given the proximity of the neighborhood to the sout Bethel lacks an outdoor competition track; this is addressed wit competition track surrounding Royal Stadium. This work will requ need to determine whether wetlands are located on or near the si relocation of the south side bleachers, which are reconstructed Finally, construction work on roads north of the campus creates opportunity to extend the existing bicycle and footpath on the e Lake Valentine around the rest of the lake. This increases the r use of the lake and creates new views of the campus from the wes Executive Summary 9 Facilities Capacity analyses suggest that Bethel University requires as muc 170,000 square feet of space for existing functions, a need that by another 100,000 square feet when planned enrollment and progr growth is included. In particular, the University lacks classroo especially for class sizes of up to 35 students. Meeting enrollm needs will require as many as 17 new classrooms. In short, the U cannot begin to assign space strategically without adding new sp Phase 1 As a starting point for numerous space moves the facilities management lower level of Hagstrom will be converted into two 35-seat class and a smaller seminar room. (An additional classroom in Hagstrom be determined.) Clauson intended for admissions counselors. Admissions counselors the Clauson Center immediately adjacent to the new Admissions Gu for student help. The resulting 2,000 square foot vacancy in the Center is then used to create a student services one-stop shop, with front meet with students can remain where they are until phase 3. In addition to general purpose classroom space, Bethel requires space for science instruction and research. High priority needs collaborative research spaces. These needs are addressed throug phase transitional space plan until a new science center can be phase includes additional new lab and research space to be const adjacent to the Academic Center. The current chemistry seminar converted to a teaching lab for chemistry and the seminar room i 10 the Academic Center are used for biology labs, student research to better meet the needs of science programs. The timing of pha tied to the addition of new classrooms in the Wellness Center. The signature element of phase 1 and the starting point for phas construction of a new 52,000 square foot Wellness Center connected to the north side of the Robertson Center, primarily to address student body as well as special equipment to serve athletics: lo dressing rooms, aerobic/group exercise, cardio, selectorized, fr weight, and plyometric space. Approximately 5,500 square feet of is included to support growth of the biokinetics program. This c of the Wellness Center comprises computer, musculoskeletal, cogn University health services and counseling services; this space i staff security in mind. Finally, the fourth level of the center new classroom and study area that includes eight new well-sized assignment classrooms. The learning focus on this level of the b also creates opportunities to physically connect to the library the new competition gym is built, to enclose the gym balcony in on the southeast end of the campus core. Phase 2 In addition to completion of the Wellness Center, phase 2 emphasizes creating quality educational environments that also allow reassi of existing space. The business and economics program is poised for growth and is highlighted in the strategic plan. Business and ec moves to a new expansion on the east end of the Robertson Center location was chosen because it is easily accessible by the outsi and is visible because it is elevated and located at the interse two entrance roads. The exterior design and site work should acc the selected location. New program spaces include approximately have an “adult or corporate” feel compared to traditional underg spaces. Instructional spaces include 15-, 24-, and 36-student cl a computer lab, and a trading style room. The site plan should a accessible parking and new access to the lower level of the Hags Center created by the Bethel Drive project. Executive Summary 11 The Bethel Library is undersized for its collections and collaborative, active learning. The Hagstrom Center is expanded on four levels to the south (about 9,200 square feet) and to the east (30,000 square feet) a renovated and reorganized to make the best use of the 60,000 squ available space. The south addition replaces the existing atrium focus on active learning visible from Bethel Drive. The southeas new space includes a new signature entrance that both is invitin approaching from the south residence halls and improves access t classrooms. One option for the east expansion is the creation of for some library collections. This allows the remaining library more as a learning commons. Regardless of actual use of the expa designers will keep in mind the long-term desire to have a new U library in another location-the expansion space should be adapta purposes. Changes in library security to allow access from the n Seminary for 50 faculty and staff, up to 7 classrooms, and student-facult and student study space. A new 21,000 square foot facility is ad the Recreation Hall and the Chapel with views to the lake where Best use of this new facility is to be determined. All seminary be assigned to meet the needs of several programs that would fun unite the campus: Seminary instruction and library, University r resources, communications and marketing, web services, and infor students living in suite or apartment style housing on the north University should explore locating a convenience-style store in complex. The library is maintained as is; senior art students wi the Recreation Hall until new space is created during or after P Phase 2 also marks the beginning of improvements in the quality residential experience, starting with renovations of Nelson Hall. In addition to improving the quality of the rooms themselves, new common spa to be created. This work is likely to result in the loss of abou envelope repairs are made in Edgren and Bodien Halls, and a new connector is constructed between the buildings to house resident of new housing connected to Nelson Hall are constructed to add r Construction of a new facilities management buildingbehind the new practice shops currently distributed around campus and off campus in leas 12 Phase 3 A series of major projects are planned to celebrate Bethel’s ses in 2021. Perhaps the most important project in the Bethel campus master plan is a new Science Center. Driving this project is the need for space to accommodate current programs and provide room for grow Furthermore, the Science Center is the physical link between the campus core and the facilities on the north side that will becom meeting undergraduate growth needs. Finally, this new facility a relocation of a large existing function that frees up the space truly reorganize the campus. While detailed programming is neede facility is planned at around 130,000 square feet based on the p offered or under consideration and based on the size of comparab centers. Programs in biology, chemistry, physics, environment st math computer science, and psychology are included. The center w house eleven general assignment classrooms ranging from seminar to lecture halls. Designers will determine how best to connect t Center to the Brushaber Commons. The center will be designed in that provides outstanding learning environments for the sciences New athletic facilities improve the experience of student athletes, related academic programs, and students seeking additional recreational intramural opportunities. A new 20,000 square foot 2,500 seat co gym is added to the north side of the Sports and Recreation Cent This facility will be the home court for basketball and volleyba additional indoor practice space, allowing the existing gym to b recreation and intramurals. A 57,000 square foot addition to the team rooms and becomes the primary home of the athletics departm (about 40,000 square feet of the total). Four general assignment (one for 24 students, two for 36, and one for 50) and space for program growth are included in the new addition. Several actions complete the upgrade of the student residential experience. A new four-story residence hall for 275 students is constructed of Lissner Hall, aimed at upper-class students and their transit independent living. Since a particular goal of this project is c intentional experience for sophomores, spaces inside and out sho focused on creating shared community between the two halls. The allowing for the demolition of Arden Village West. Edgren, Bodie year residence hall construction and renovation is using traditi housing to create personal connections, sense of community, and the institution and its values. Executive Summary 13 The completion of the new Science Center will create an opportun that has never existed at Bethel--the chance to rethink the orga of programs and spaces. Projects beyond the time frame of the ca master plan become part of that opportunity: a new University-w library learning commons would promote learning and student succ and allow much of the Hagstrom Center to be reconceptualized. Additional planning is required in three key areas: The academic experience: if space is available to organize academic programs for new synergies and to create “place-based identities”, how should that be done? The residential experience: what level of academic and social integration should take place in the residence halls and what kinds of spaces should new and remodeled housing have? The student success experience: what programs, services, and spaces help students understand and take advantage of the opportunities available at Bethel to persist, to graduate, and to discover their calling? The level-by-level concepts on this page are a starting point f part of that discussion: what physical organization might best that experience? Two organizing themes are at the core. Level 3 is considered Main Street on the interconnected Bethel campus. However, it lacks many of the attributes associated with Main Street: zones or blocks of activity, distinguishable neigh identities, or street signs and clearly marked intersections. It be envisioned as a learning street, presenting academic opportun to all the senses--the sight of a digital ticker tape outside th economics department; the sounds of the campus radio station or music practice; the sights and sounds of students studying toget the library; students and faculty engaged in conversation in a dedicated to the liberal arts with the coffee shop just around t Each block should have a different look and feel that invites ex and creates a visible identity for resident programs and service The second major organizing theme continues the Main Street conc into what is functionally the Bethel Village Square--the second level space in the Brushaber Commons. Relocating current occupants of the second level of the Academic Center allows that entire space become a center for student opportunity and student support: fo example, student government, student organizations, study abroad internships, mission work and one-stop student services. Finally locating Campus Ministries in the Village Square emphasizes the importance of faith in all aspects of life at Bethel University. 14 The most ambitious plans must still have a realistic starting po prioritization of projects. Some high priority work, like reside construction and renovation, will depend on adding new debt capa underway. Two comprehensive campaigns will follow. The campus m plan includes the following steps as phase 1. The University is taking immediate action: create new classrooms in the Hagstrom Center. . . that enable sciences to begin expanding in the Academic Center. Bethel Drive is being redesigned and resurfaced in the summer of 2013 to improve both the welcome to campus and the pedestrian experie admissions counselors to move to the Clauson Center. That move, in turn, will provide needed to create the one-stop student services shop in the Robertson Center. Also in 2013-14, the new parking lot at the north residence halls will be constructed and installed. A successful capital campaign will result in the construction of $20 million Wellness Center in creating the interim spaces needed by the sciences.

The approximate cost of the sign and landscaping at the triangle parcel was as follows: Gateway Sign$10,100 Landscaping and Site Improvements$23,100 Total Costs(including value of in kind donations)$33,200 Less In Kind and Cash Donations$5,500 Net Cost to City$27,700 Locations for future signs have not been selected.
