This year’s theme is “Ready & Resilient”, and it showcases the superheroes that lie within each and every Public Works professional ~ always READY to serve their community and RESILIENT as ever in their abilities to pick themselves up off the ground after encountering challenges. Our Public Works employees take great pride in their work. The week of May 15-21, 2022 honors these professionals who serve the public good every day with quiet dedication.

APPROVAL OF AGENDA MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Mayor Grant seconded a motion to approve the meeting agenda as presented. The motion carried (5-0). 2. PUBLIC INQUIRIES/INFORMATIONAL Chris Hughes, 3515 Snelling Avenue North, stated he was a member of the One and All Arden Hills Group. He explained one of the goals of this group was to advocate for an increase in the amount of affordable housing in the City. He discussed the Metropolitan Council’s affordable housing goals for the City and how they relate to the TCAAP project. He asked what the City’s plan was to meet Met Council’s affordable housing goals and questioned what the City was actively doing to show progress towards this goal. He also asked why the Council is opposed to the County’s affordability goals. Gregg Larson, 3377 North Snelling Avenue, stated last October he asked why the Council opposed more housing units and affordability within Rice Creek Commons. He explained despite numerous requests, he has not received a response as to the reasons. He discussed the City’s ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – APRIL 11, 2022 2 AUAR, previous expenditures on TCAAP, and what his beliefs are on how the Council viewed affordability. He reported the Ramsey County Court pleadings from the 2019 case against Arden Hills states the City was opposed to having a Costco store as a commercial anchor for Rice Creek Commons. He indicated one City Councilmember was quoted as saying, “the opposition was because some of Costco’s clients are people we don’t want in the community”. He discussed the demographics of Costco members. He questioned who among the Councilmembers could offer an explanation and who were the people not wanted in the community. 3.

Quarterly Special Assessments for Delinquent Utilities Finance Director Bauman stated water customers whose account is 90 days past due were informed that the City intends to certify delinquent charges to Ramsey County to be collected with property taxes. These customers have the right to a hearing in front of the City Council to discuss this matter prior to certification. Mayor Grant opened the public hearing at 7:12 p.m. With no one coming forward to speak, Mayor Grant closed the public hearing at 7:13 p.m. B. Snelling Avenue North Street and Utility Improvements Project Draft Special Assessment Roll Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated a calculation error was found during last minute review for the proposed assessments for the Snelling Avenue North Street improvement project. He reported the proposed assessments did not include overhead costs. He noted the current rates were based on the as bid construction street costs with assessments totaling $140,409. He explained the feasibility report had the assessments based on total costs which include construction plus overhead. He reported the total special assessments for the project should be $178,281. At this point, the Council has two options for the assessment hearing. He noted staff could be directed to reissue notices to the property owners with the updated assessment rate calling for a future hearing date, such as May 9. He indicated another option would be to elect the assessment rate at the previously identified lower rate. Councilmember Radziej supported the matter being tabled to the May 9 City Council meeting. Mayor Grant concurred. Councilmember Scott indicated this was an error on the City’s part and with the cost pressures on everyone at this time, he would like to move forward as is with the previously identified lower rate. Councilmember Holden commented she wanted the assessments to be fair and noted all of the residents on Arden Oak Street would be paying for overhead and construction costs while the residents on Snelling Avenue would only be paying for construction costs if this matter were to move forward as is. She indicated if this was a stand alone project she could support moving forward, but because there were two projects, she wanted the City to be fair. Councilmember Scott thanked Councilmember Holden for her comment and noted he would like to withdraw his objection. Councilmember Holmes supported the Council tabling action on this item. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – APRIL 11, 2022 4 Mayor Grant opened the public hearing at 7:19 p.m. Chris Hughes, 3515 Snelling Avenue North, commented the 16% increase and a comment from the Council that this was a nominal amount. Councilmember Holmes noted that she had said that the increase was not a nominal amount. Gregg Larson, 3377 North Snelling Avenue, complimented City staff for his efforts on this plan noting it accommodated the residents that live on Snelling Avenue. He suggested the Council consider bonding for street and trail improvement projects versus paying for them in full. He commented on the miscalculation and how the $1,600 increase would impact the homeowners living on Snelling Avenue. He encouraged City staff to revisit the cost for other reclamation projects that were completed in Arden Hills to see if this project was comparable. With no one coming forward to speak, Mayor Grant closed the public hearing at 7:21 p.m. Mayor Grant asked what the cost difference would be for the residents living on Snelling Avenue. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen estimated the difference per lot would be $1,023 and not $1,600. Councilmember Holden thanked staff for thinking outside the box on this project, for finding a way to install a sidewalk and for working with the residents along Snelling Avenue. Further discussion ensued regarding previous reclamation projects completed in Arden Hills. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated the storm sewer layout would not be changing with this project. He indicated the curb cuts would allow crossing areas for the turtles in this area. 9. NEW BUSINESS A. Resolution 2022-018 Adopting and Confirming Quarterly Special Assessments for Delinquent Utilities Mayor Grant stated this item was introduced under Item 8A. MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Holmes seconded a motion to adopt Resolution 2022-018 – Adopting and Confirming Quarterly Special Assessments for Delinquent Utilities. The motion carried (5-0). B. Resolution 2022-019 Adopting Special Assessments Roll – Snelling Avenue North Street and Utility Improvements Project Mayor Grant indicated a motion to table would be in order for this item. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – APRIL 11, 2022 5 MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Holmes seconded a motion to table action on the Special Assessments Roll for the Snelling Avenue North Street and Utility Improvements Project to the May 9, 2022 City Council meeting. The motion carried (5-0). C. Resolution 2022-020 Accepting Bid and Authorizing Award of Contract to T.A. Schifsky & Sons, Inc. – Snelling Avenue North Street and Utility Improvements Project Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated on February 14, 2022, the City Council approved plans & specifications and ordered advertisement for bids for the Snelling Avenue North Street and Utility Improvement Project located along Snelling Avenue North from Trunk Highway 51 to County Road E, Cummings Lane, and Bussard Court from Snelling Avenue North to 100-Feet West of Snelling Avenue North. The proposed improvements include bituminous paving, curb and gutter installation, storm water improvements, watermain improvements, sanitary sewer improvements and construction of a 10-foot wide bituminous trail along the west side of the entire length of Snelling Avenue North. Pursuant of Resolution 2022- 005 bids were opened on March 9, 2022. It was noted four bids for the project were received. A full bid tabulation and the detailed bid tab was reviewed with the Council. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reported the low bid of $1,277,585.49, received from T.A. Schifsky & Sons, Inc., compares favorably with the construction engineer’s estimate which is $1,289,000. T.A. Schifsky & Sons, Inc. has completed similar projects successfully in the metro area along with completing the paving portion of the City’s 2021 PMP. Bolton & Menk recommended awarding the project to T.A. Schifsky & Sons, Inc. as the lowest responsible/responsive bidder. Staff recommends adoption of Resolution 2022-020. Staff commented further on the project timeline and noted Bolton & Menk would be assisting the City with keeping residents informed on this project. MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Holmes seconded a motion to adopt Resolution 2022-020 Accepting Bid and Authorizing Award of Contract to T.A. Schifsky & Sons, Inc. – Snelling Avenue North Street and Utility Improvements Project. The motion carried (5-0). 10. UNFINISHED BUSINESS None. 11. COUNCIL COMMENTS Councilmember Radziej thanked staff for providing a tour of the Public Works facility. Councilmember Scott asked if City streets were still being swept. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated the City was still completing the spring street sweeping as weather allows. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – APRIL 11, 2022 6 Councilmember Holmes encouraged residents to read the upcoming Arden Hills Notes in order to learn about connections the city has to Ukraine. Councilmember Holmes reported she was looking forward to discussing food trucks at the Monday, April 18 Council work session. Councilmember Holmes requested an update on the City Hall parking lot improvement project. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen discussed the timing for this project and noted the majority of the work would be done on the weekends so as not to disrupt parking at City Hall. Councilmember Holden questioned when the load limits would be lifted on City streets. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reported this was all weather dependent and until the frost comes out of the ground the limits cannot be lifted. He noted the City follows MNDOT recommendations when it comes to load limits. Councilmember Holden expressed concern with the amount of money the City has allegedly spent on TCAAP. She reported the City may have spent $4 million, but Ryan reimbursed the City for these dollars. City Administrator Perrault stated the $4 million number is reflective of expenses from 1995. He indicated the City has been reimbursed for a substantial proportion for these dollars. Mayor Grant reported the spring egg hunt would be held on Saturday, April 16 at 10:30 a.m. at Cummings Park. Mayor Grant reviewed two slides with the Council showing COVID numbers and he thanked the Council and staff for their patience while holding virtual meetings over the past few months. ADJOURN MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Radziej seconded a motion to adjourn. The motion carried (5-0). Mayor Grant adjourned the Regular City Council Meeting at 7:41 p.m. __________________________ __________________________ Julie Hanson David Grant City Clerk Mayor CONSENT ITEM 7A MEMORANDUM DATE: April 25, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Dave Perrault, City Administrator FROM: Gayle Bauman, Finance Director Pang Silseth, Accounting Analyst SUBJECT: Claims and Payroll Listing Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: N/A N/A N/A Council Should Consider Motion to approve, table or deny the following:  Claims and Payroll Listing All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted.

All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted. Background Investments - per the Investment Policy, our Benchmark Rate is the 4M plus Rate. At March 31, 2022 – this rate was 0.073% and our portfolio is averaging 1.77%. All of our investments are in government secured or government backed deposits. Utility billing cycles and CIP projects are taken into account when determining how much to invest and for how long. Basis of accounting – during the year, City books are kept on a cash basis which means that only items that are received are booked as revenue and items paid are booked as expenses. Adjustments for accruals, deferrals and other accounting requirements are made at year end. General Fund – The main source of revenue for the City is property taxes and these come in twice a year. Expenditures are at 23.0% of budget through the first quarter, compared to 22.4% last year. Other governmental funds, enterprise funds and internal service funds – Utility revenue for first quarter will be booked in April 2022 and annual transfers between funds will be booked later in the year. The allocation for insurance (Risk Management Fund) will be completed in June. Market value adjustments for investments total -$379,665.41 through the end of the quarter. It is important to note that the City holds its investments to maturity and no principal is ever lost on an investment.

Page 1 of 1 DATE: April 25, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers FROM: Dave Perrault, City Administrator SUBJECT: Contract for Impound Services with Animal Humane Society Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: $2,000 TBD General Fund Council Should Consider Motions to approve, table, or deny the following: • An agreement with Animal Humane Society to provide animal impound services for the City of Arden Hills. All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted. Discussion All seven contract cities (Arden Hills, Falcon Heights, Little Canada, North Oaks, Shoreview, Vadnais Heights, and White Bear Township) were notified that Saint Paul Animal Control would no longer be able to provide animal impound services to each of the cities. Although each has their own contract with an animal impound service, animal control services are provided by the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office. The Sheriff’s Office is recommending the contract cities go with the Animal Humane Society for impound services. The other six cities have already signed the contract, Arden Hills is the only outstanding City and waiting on Council approval. The City Attorney has reviewed the contract. Once approved, Staff will update the website and other information regarding where animals are impounded. Budget Impact The City budgets $2,000 for animal control services, our actual cost in previous years has been $975 (2021) and $523 (2020). Future budget impacts will depend on how many animals need impounding, but it is not likely we will exceed our animal control budget. In 2021, five animals needed to be impounded.

Public Works Director / City Engineer SUBJECT: Sewer Line Ownership, Operation, and Maintenance Agreement Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: N/A N/A N/A Council Should Consider Motions to approve, table, or deny the following: • Sewer Line Ownership, Operation, and Maintenance Agreement between the City of Arden Hills, the City of Mounds View, and Ramsey County. All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted. Background In 1994, Mounds View, Arden Hills, and the US Department of the Army entered into a Sanitary Sewer Connection and Use Agreement for Army usage of a Mounds View owned sanitary sewer interceptor located on a common border between Mounds View and Arden Hills. The sanitary sewer runs from the TCAAP property, under 35W to a metering station located at the park and ride along County Road H. The agreement is included as an exhibit in Attachment A. Due to acquisition of the TCAAP property by Ramsey County, it is necessary to amend the agreement to remove the Army and include Ramsey County as a party to the agreement. Discussion With future development of the TCAAP site within the City of Arden Hills, the agreement is necessary to outline responsibilities for use and operation of the sanitary sewer line through the City of Mounds View including the following: Page 2 of 2 • Arden Hills will be responsible for the existing meter located in Mounds View which meters the flow into the Metropolitan Council interceptor. The cities are in discussion with the Metropolitan Council for them to take over ownership of the metering station. • The Agreement outlines fees that Arden Hills will be responsible to pay Mounds View for the use of the system. • The Agreement outlines the transfer of ownership of the sanitary sewer to the City of Arden Hills. • All operations and maintenance costs will be at the City of Arden Hill’s expense. Budget Impact At such time the agreement is executed by all parties, the City of Arden Hills will be responsible for the operation and maintenance of the sanitary sewer line. All flows into the system will be metered and billed appropriately to system users.

Budget Impact N/A Attachment N/A CONSENT ITEM – 7K MEMORANDUM CONSENT ITEM – 7L MEMORANDUM DATE: April 25, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Dave Perrault, City Administrator FROM: Gayle Bauman, Finance Director SUBJECT: Affirm Allocation of ARPA Revenues for Water Infrastructure on the 2021 PMP Street and Utility Improvement Project Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: N/A N/A N/A Council Should Consider Motion(s) to approve, table or deny the following: • Resolution 2022-028 Affirming Allocation of American Rescue Plan Act Revenues for water infrastructure on the 2021 PMP Street and Utility Improvement Project. All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted. Background The $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan (ARP) infuses $350 billion into local governments, easing the immediate financial trauma facing most every community across the country, and providing options to overcome shortfalls and simultaneously rebuild for a stronger, more sustainable future. Eligible uses of the funds include • Support public health expenditures, by funding COVID-19 mitigation efforts, medical expenses, behavioral healthcare, and certain public health and safety staff; • Address negative economic impacts caused by the public health emergency, including economic harms to workers, households, small businesses, impacted industries, and the public sector; • Replace lost public sector revenue, using this funding to provide government services to the extent of the reduction in revenue experienced due to the pandemic; • Provide premium pay for essential workers, offering additional support to those who have borne and will bear the greatest health risks because of their service in critical infrastructure sectors; and, • Invest in water, sewer, and broadband infrastructure, making necessary investments to improve access to clean drinking water, support vital wastewater and stormwater infrastructure, and to expand access to broadband internet. One-time funds These funds should be directed toward one-time priorities and not programs or policies that will continue to need funding into the future. With the temporary nature of ARPA funds: • Care should be taken to avoid creating new programs or add-ons to existing programs that require an ongoing financial commitment. • Use of ARPA funds to cover operating deficits caused by COVID-19 should be considered temporary and additional budget restraint may be necessary to achieve/maintain structural balance in future budgets. • Investment in critical infrastructure is particularly well suited use of ARPA funds because it is a non-recurring expenditure that can be targeted to strategically important long- term assets that provide benefits over many years. However, care should be taken to assess any on-going operating costs that may be associated with the project. Timeline • Cost must be incurred beginning on or after March 3, 2021 (with the exception of premium pay); • Costs must be incurred or obligated (orders placed for property and services, contracts and sub- awards made, and similar transactions that require payment) by December 31, 2024; • End of performance period is December 31, 2026 (allows for projects obligated at December 31, 2024 to be completed). Discussion Mayor Grant, Councilmember Holden and Finance Director Bauman met in July 2021, to start developing a list of items that meet the eligibility requirements and bring the greatest benefit to the City. On March 21, 2022, this was discussed with Council at the work session. The conversation centered on water, sewer and storm water projects. On April 18, 2022, this was discussed with Council at the work session. Direction was given to staff to develop a list of water and sewer projects that met the eligibility requirements of the act and could be completed prior to December 31, 2024. Using ARPA funds on utility projects means the city won’t have to bond for future improvements and can keep utility costs down, which impacts all property owners. Investment in critical infrastructure is a particularly well suited use of ARPA funds because it is a non-recurring expenditure that can be targeted to strategically important long-term assets that provide benefits over many years. Budget Impact Using these funds on water and sewer infrastructure will help alleviate the need for future bonding and help keep utility costs down for all property owners.

ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARDEN HILLS THIS 25th DAY OF APRIL, 2022. ________________________________ David Grant, Mayor ATTEST: ______________________________ Jolene Trauba, Deputy City Clerk Page 1 of 2 DATE: April 25, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers David Perrault, City Administrator FROM: David Swearingen, P.E. Public Works Director/City Engineer SUBJECT: Arden Oaks Street Improvement Project – Special Assessment Hearing Council Should Consider Motions to approve, table, or deny the following: • Hold a Special Assessment Hearing for the Arden Oaks Street Improvement Project for public comment. All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted. Background/Discussion On February 14, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution 2022-005 Approving the Plans and Specifications and Ordering the Advertisement for Bids for the Arden Oaks Street Improvement Project located within the Arden Oaks residential neighborhood. Bids were solicited and opened on Wednesday, March 9, 2022. A portion of the costs for the Arden Oaks Street Improvement Project are proposed to be assessed against the benefitting properties according to the City’s Assessment Policy. In order to assess these costs, the City must follow the process outlined in State Statute 429. On March 21, 2022, after the bids were opened, the City Council adopted Resolution 2022-013 Declaring Costs to be Assessed and set today as the date for the assessment hearing. A public hearing prior to adopting the assessments is a requirement of State Statute 429. The proposed assessment area is shown on Attachment A. The project is proposed to be assessed consistent with the City’s Assessment Policy and past practices, which states that 50% of the costs for roadway improvements will be assessed in residential areas, with the remaining portion financed by City funds. Financing for the project is consistent with City policy and past practice and is summarized in the table below. The project costs include 27% engineering and overhead costs. PUBLIC HEARING – 9A MEMORANDUM Page 2 of 2 Also, the Council must establish the interest rate at tonight’s Council Meeting. Many cities set their interest rate for assessments at two (2) percentage points over the bond interest rate. The City’s assessment policy states that the interest rate used for the assessment shall be designated at the prime rate plus two (2) percentage points. For the 2021 PMP, the assessment interest rate was set at two (2) percentage points over the assumed bond interest rate which was based on current market conditions at the time, our AAA rating, plus 15 basis points. The result was an assessment interest rate of 3.15%. Our current assumed bond interest rate is 2.90% and the prime rate is 3.50%. Staff would recommend following the City’s assessment policy and setting the assessment rate at 5.50%. The total project costs were analyzed for the assessable cost. The calculation of the amount to be assessed as approved by Council Resolution 2022-013 is shown below. • The assessments related to the project are calculated in accordance with the City’s Assessment policy, is half of the street project cost for residential properties. The assessment rate is $5,834.34 per unit as compared to the Engineer’s estimate of $6,131.10. Arden Oaks Streets Item Calculation Result Construction Cost X 27% Overhead $367,517.20 $466,746.84 50% of Construction Cost $466,746.84 / 2 $233,373.42 Assessment Rate $233,373.42/(40-units) $5,834.34 The full detailed assessment roll is shown in Attachment B. To date, no formal objections have been submitted in writing to City staff. Any written objection received prior to Monday evening will be provided to the City Council at the assessment hearing. As provided for in State Statute, no appeal may be taken as to the amount of any assessment adopted unless a written objection signed by the affected property owner is filed with the City at or prior to the assessment hearing. After the adoption of the assessment roll, property owners who have submitted an objection in writing have 30 days to serve notice of an appeal to the City, and within 10 days after serving notice to file with the District Court. Recommendation The Council should hold the Assessment Hearing first. After the Assessment Hearing is closed and as part of New Business, Council should consider adopting Resolution 2022-023 Adopting the Assessment Roll for the Arden Oaks Street Improvement Project with any changes they deem appropriate. Following the assessment hearing, also under new business, staff will be recommending award of the contract to Astech Corporation as the lowest responsible bidder.

Crimsontech Industries, LLC is a Minnesota registered limited liability company (the “Company”) that was established on February 16, 2022. A Conditional Use Permit is required in this instance due to the deliveries, up to one daily, being made to the residence. The company’s business activities are related to the repair, maintenance, and restoration of firearms via an online portal. In addition, the online store shall carry a small amount of inventory for sale.

The Applicant currently has a Class I Accessory Home Occupation registered with the City for consulting and graphic design services provided to toy manufacturers. This business will continue to operate out of the home in conjunction with the proposed CUP application. Approvals: 1. Conditional Use Permit A Conditional Use Permit is required for Class II Accessory Home Occupations. A home occupation is allowed in residential zoning districts as an accessory use, but it becomes a Class II Home Occupation when there is the delivery of products other than those delivered by private passenger vehicle. City Code Section 1355.04 Subd. 3 of the Arden Hills Zoning Code lists the criteria for evaluating a Conditional Use Permit. The City Council should consider the effect of the proposed use upon the health, safety, convenience and general welfare of the owners and occupants of the surrounding land and the community, in general, including but not limited to the following factors: 1. Existing and anticipated traffic and parking conditions; 2. Noise, glare, odors, vibration, smoke, dust, air pollution, heat, liquid or solid waste, and other nuisance characteristics; 3. Drainage; 4. Population density; 5. Visual and land use compatibility with uses and structures on surrounding land; 6. Adjoining land values; 7. Park dedications where applicable; 8. Orderly development of the neighborhood and the City within the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Code and the Comprehensive Development Plan for the City. Under state law, a conditional use is a use that is generally allowed in a designated district upon showing by the applicant that the standards and criteria stated in the ordinance will be satisfied. Conversely, if the applicant is unable to show that the ordinance standards are met, the application can be denied, but because the use is listed as permitted, the City’s discretion is more limited in these matters than in a comprehensive plan or rezoning application.

The company’s business activities are related to the sale of service for the repair, maintenance, and restoration of firearms via an online portal. In addition, the online store shall carry a small amount of inventory for sale. The company also creates reviews and how-to videos related to the business for posting on its website and on Youtube (crimsontechindustries.com). The company is a small scale operation and is solely owned and operated by the CEO/Owner, Richard Spicer. The company wishes to obtain a Class II Accessory Home Occupation Permit to conduct its business activities at the below location: 1682 Wedgewood Circle Arden Hills, MN 55112 Page 2 of 4 Section 2: Details of Business Operation and Model All business is done via online portal. There are three ways the company makes business. Below are the details of the operations: A) Firearm Repair 1. Customer visits crimsontechindustries.com 2. Customer fills an online form for inquiry on firearm repair, maintenance, or restoration 3. The Company replies back to the request for further inquiry on the request, and any additional information is obtained via online meeting software, either Skype, Facebook, or Zoom. 4. After confirming the customer issue and providing a quotation, the customer sends the firearm to the Company via FedEx OR UPS, with signature being required by Crimsontech. 5. After delivery, the firearm is repaired in the at-home workshop (see floorplan). 6. The firearm is then packed and shipped via FedEx OR UPS, with pickup being required at the door. B) Online Sales 1. Customer visits crimsontechindustries.com 2. Customer visits the online store and makes a purchase from available inventory. 3. In the case of firearm related sales, the customer would provide a merchant close to them with an FFL license to receive the item. In the case of non-firearm related items, this is not required and would ship direct to customer. 4. The item is packed and either arranged for pickup at door (required for firearms), or brought to a shipping center for shipping (for non-firearm items). C) Sponsors and Advertisement Revenue a. Video content is made either off-site or in the area noted “Workshop” in the floor plan b. Crimsontech releases said content via Youtube, of which this video is linked to on the crimsontechindustries.com website. c. Crimsontech Industries is paid for advertisement by other companies within the video, either by paid sponsorship, by the Youtube Partner Program, or via an affiliate link, such as Amazon’s Affiliate Program. Section 3: Customer Interaction All business conducted is online only. From the initial contact all the way to the end delivery of product, there is no in-person interaction. Page 3 of 4 Due to this, there is no need to add additional parking, etc, to the property, as no customers will be visiting. The only exception to this is in the case of Gun Shows or Remote Events. In those cases, customer interaction will be face to face, but these interactions would not be taking place on the property. Section 4: Advertisement of Services All advertisement of services will be conducted online only, through Google Ads and SEO. No advertisement shall be placed on the property noting that there is business being operated on the property. Section 5: Deliveries The Company is a small-scale business; repairs could possibly take a week or more to preform, so a large volume of deliveries is not required. We expect one to two deliveries per week by FedEx OR UPS. However, we would like to propose the acceptance of having the allowance of ONE delivery per day to be made by FedEx OR UPS. Section 6: Security Please note that the following security measures are already in place: • Home security system installed and monitored by ADT. • Heavy duty safe for firearm storage. • Locked storage for ammunition. • Locked storage for additional inventory. Section 7: FFL Permit Please note that at the time of this application, the following is true: Crimsontech Industries has not applied for a Federal Firearm License. Related to the above, the ATF, as part of its approval, will require applicants to have all approval and proper permits to conduct business by the city/township of the company’s location. The type of FFL Permit being applied for is a Type 7 – Manufacturer of Firearms – The reasoning behind this Permit Type is due to the gunsmithing activities. In cases where a replacement part or new component is required, either by cutting steel or 3D printing fabrication, in some cases these components may be considered a firearm by ATF definitions. To avoid any conflicts, the FFL license would cover these specific cases. This type also encompasses the regular sale of firearms. Page 4 of 4 A copy of the FFL permit application that is sent to the ATF is required to be sent to the local sheriff’s office per Section 4 of the Application for Firearms License Instructions. When this application is submitted, it will be sent to the Arden Hills Sheriff’s Office so they will be aware of the application on the business activities. Section 8: Business Commencement Please note that although the Company has been opened and registered, it will not commence business until the following is true: 1. Approval is given by the Arden Hills Planning Commission of the Class II Accessory Home Application, and 2. The ATF gives approval of the Type 7 FFL Permit Section 9: Other Considerations • The ATF requires an extensive background check as part of the application process. • The ATF requires an in-person interview to ensure that the applicant is aware of all laws and regulations regarding the handling and sale of firearms and their related activities. • The ATF requires any firearms in the possession of an FFL holder shall be secured and locked and must be shown to have facilities to accommodate this, which the Company already has in place as per Section 5: Security. Section 10: In Summary • The Company is an online only business. • The Company does not have any employees other than the Owner/CEO Richard Spicer • The Company will not have customer facing at the residence. • The Company will not advertise on the property of the residence. • The Company shall only allow one delivery per day for business operations. • The Company shall obtain an FFL permit prior to conducting business. • The Company requires city approval prior to obtaining the FFL permit.

Planning Case 22-003; 1682 Wedgewood Circle – Conditional Use Permit – Public Hearing City Planner Jagoe stated Richard Spicer (“Applicant”) has submitted an application for a Conditional Use Permit to allow a Class II Accessory Home Occupation at 1682 Wedgewood Circle. The Applicant is the sole owner and operator of Crimsontech Industries, LLC, a business related to repair, maintenance, and restoration of firearms including online sales. A home occupation is allowed in residential zoning districts, but a Conditional Use Permit is required when there is the delivery of products other than those delivered by private passenger vehicle. The Applicant anticipates one to two deliveries per week by a commercial courier which triggered the Class II designation requiring a Conditional Use Permit. City Planner Jagoe reported 1682 Wedgewood Circle (“Subject Property”) is zoned R-3, Townhouse and Low Density Multiple Dwelling District, and is designated for Medium Density Residential Uses in the 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The Subject Property is the site of a single-family dwelling owned by Wendy Wei Wang. All surrounding parcels are also zoned R -3, Townhouse and Low Density Multiple Dwelling District, and designated for Medium Density Residential Uses in the 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan. City Planner Jagoe reviewed the surrounding area, the Plan Evaluation and provided the Findings of Fact for review: 1. The subject property located at 1682 Wedgewood Circle is zoned R-3, Townhouse and Low Density Multiple Dwelling District and is designated for Medium Density Residential uses on the 2040 Comprehensive Plan. 2. A home occupation is allowed in residential zoning districts, but a Conditional Use Permit is required when there is the delivery of products. 3. The Applicant is the sole owner and operator of Crimsontech Industries, LLC, a business related to repair, maintenance, and restoration of firearms including online sales. 4. Crimsontech Industries, LLC is a Minnesota registered limited liabilit y company that was opened on February 16, 2022. 5. All company business is conducted through an online portal and no customers will be visiting the subject property. There is no in-person interaction between the Applicant and business patrons. 6. The company requires only one delivery per day. 7. The company is a small scale operation and is solely owned and operated by the Applicant, CEO and Owner Richard Spicer. 8. Repair, maintenance, and restoration of the firearms is conducted entirely within the dwelling. City Planner Jagoe stated staff recommends approval of Planning Case 22-003 for a Conditional Use Permit to allow a Class II Accessory Home Occupation at 1682 Wedgewood Circle, based on the findings of fact and submitted plans, subject to the following conditions: 1. The Applicant shall obtain, maintain, and provide evidence upon request of applicable County, State or Federal licensing for the proposed home occupation following City Council approval. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION – April 6, 2022 3 2. The Applicant shall for the duration of the Conditional Use Permit continue to provide evidence to the City of issuance of FFL renewal licenses and/or Letters of Authorization from the Federal Firearms Licensing Center prior to the expiration of the federal firearms license. 3. The number of daily deliveries associated with the home occupation shall be limited to one per day. 4. No exterior evidence of the home occupation shall be permitted. 5. No exterior signage shall be permitted. 6. The home occupation shall be conducted only by the occupants of the premises and may not employ any person not residing in the residence. 7. There shall be no patrons visiting the premises and all home occupation engagement and sales must be exclusively conducted online. 8. The premises shall at all times be protected by a contracted security service and all firearms and ammunition shall be kept secured in heavy duty gun safes. City Planner Jagoe reviewed the options available to the Planning Commission on this matter: 1. Recommend Approval with Conditions 2. Recommend Approval as Submitted 3. Recommend Denial 4. Table Chair Vijums opened the floor to Commissioner comments. Commissioner Wicklund asked if it was common for conditions to exceed the requirements within City Code. He indicated the applicant could have one employee per City Code, but staff is recommending no employees be allowed, except the applicant. City Planner Jagoe reported City Code does state as part of the Conditional Use Permit review that one employee not living on the property may be employed, and this was something the Planning Commission can review. She explained the applicant has indicated they do not have any employees nor does he intend to have employees. In this recommendation, the condition was drafted to match the current scope of the home occupation because we have not reviewed parking or other neighborhood impacts if there were to be an employee. The ordinance language provides a mechanism for that to occur, but the applicant would need to apply for a CUP Amendment to add an employee the way the condition is drafted currently. Commissioner Wicklund questioned what type of monitoring would the City be doing for this type of CUP. City Planner Jagoe stated the applicant would have to provide the City with evidence of the licensing. She reported the City was complaint based for code enforcement matters and if a concern were to arise at this property, the City would then respond. Commissioner Weber inquired who would follow up on complaints received by the City. City Planner Jagoe stated the City’s Building Inspector was also the Code Enforcement Officer. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION – April 6, 2022 4 Commissioner Weber asked how long the CUP would remain in effect. City Planner Jagoe reported conditional use permits run with the property. Commissioner Weber questioned if staff was aware of any other residential rental properties in the City that have CUP’s in place for home occupations. City Planner Jagoe stated she had not researched this. She noted that the home occupation ordinance states the business is conducted by an occupant of the residence so that would apply to an Owner or Renter. She added that the land use application and home occupation license forms require the Property Owner signature if they are not the applicant. Commissioner Weber indicated he watched one of the videos that was posted online by the applicant. He stated the applicant appears to be very competent. He requested the applicant speak to the manner in which he handles, cleans and stores firearms. Richard Spicer, 1682 Wedgewood Circle, explained how safety was of the utmost importance to him. He reported he stores his firearms in a safe with ammunition locked in a secure area in a different part of the dwelling. He described how he keeps ammunition away from his work area. He indicated he tests his firearms at the Bald Eagle Sportsman Association in Hugo, Minnesota. Commissioner Weber inquired how long Mr. Spicer has lived at this address. Mr. Spicer indicated he has lived in this home for almost two years. Commissioner Weber asked who else lived in the home. Mr. Spicer reported he lives in the rental home with his wife and 11 year old daughter. He explained they have both have access to his work space, but do not have access to the secured areas or safes. He commented further on the requirements that were in place for his firearms safe. Commissioner Weber questioned if the applicant had ever held a federal firearms license. Mr. Spicer stated he had not, but noted he has a license to carry, which meant he had gone through an extensive background check. Commissioner Jefferys requested further information regarding the security service that would be in place for the property. City Planner Jagoe deferred this question to the applicant. Mr. Spicer stated he has hired ADT to monitor his property 24 hours a day. He noted the windows have vibration detection which then sets off the alarms. He indicated the ATF as part of the FFL license would require him to report the loss of a stolen firearm. He provided the ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION – April 6, 2022 5 Commission with a handout on the reports from the ATF for the past five years for crimes related to FFL’s. Further discussion ensued regarding the security system that was in place on the home. Commissioner Jefferys explained she was curious to learn what the Ramsey County Sheriff’s office thought about this request. City Planner Jagoe stated she had sent the application to them for review and noted staff will follow up as part of this process to see if they have any comment before the City Council meeting. She indicated that as part of the FFL licensing paperwork there is a section for local law enforcement that the applicant will have to complete as part of the federal review. Chair Vijums commented this was a sensitive topic for many people. He reported there has to be a thorough review of this topic by the City and it appears this has been done. He felt confident that this type of business will not alter the neighborhood in any manner. He appreciated the security and mitigation measures that were put in place on the property. Commissioner Weber agreed. Chair Vijums opened the public hearing at 7:05 p.m. Chair Vijums invited anyone for or against the application to come forward and make comment. Renee Crumpton, 1680 Wedgewood Circle, noted she has lived in her home for the past 22 years. She indicated the neighboring home became a rental three years after she built her home and there has been nothing but problems. She explained the neighboring home has been broken into on two different occasions. She stated she pays taxes on her property and Mr. Spicer does not because he was a renter. She reported the proposed home business made her afraid and she feared people would break into her neighbors house to steal the weapons onsite. She encouraged the City to not approve this home occupation CUP. JoAnn Cirks, 1687 Wedgewood Circle, commented she was concerned about the proposed home occupation. She indicated she lives on a cul-de-sac and there has been packages stolen at times. She feared that the residents in her neighborhood would have a hard time selling their homes if the CUP were approved. She anticipated the home occupation would devalue her home. She recommended the Planning Commission not approve the requested CUP. Tom Coffey, 1693 Wedgewood Circle, stated he has a number of questions. He indicated he was concerned with the fact the applicant was a renter. He explained he pays a great deal in property taxes to live in Arden Hills, while the applicant does not. He questioned why the City had not run a report on CUP’s to see how many others were renters running home occupations. He believed that Richard Spicer was a nice person, but did not believe a rental home was the right place for this type of business. He anticipated that most homeowners would not allow a renter to operate this type of business out of their home. He noted the applicant also runs another business out of the home that deals with the retail sale of toys. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION – April 6, 2022 6 Mr. Coffey reported he has used an FFL in the past to purchase a gun online and he had to go to the home to fill out the paperwork and take possession of the weapon. He noted this was in a residential neighborhood in Blaine. He questioned if the process had changed. He asked if the work space for the home business was being done in a three season porch. He believed that this was not a secure workspace. There being no additional comment Chair Vijums closed the public hearing at 7:16 p.m. Chair Vijums requested the applicant respond to the questions that were raised by the neighbors. Mr. Spicer described the “how-to” videos he posts online. He discussed how he would only be conducting online sales and the product gets shipped to another local FFL certified business for handling of paperwork and pickup. He explained shipment of firearms can only be done between two registered FFL’s. He explained background checks would then be handled by that local FFL. He reported his address would not be shared with purchasers. He commented his workshop was located in the basement, on the interior of the three season porch. Chair Vijums asked if firearms were delivered directly to the applicants home. Mr. Spicer reported UPS and FedEx deliver firearms only to FFL license holders and signatures are required. Commissioner Weber questioned if the applicant would allow people to bring guns to him for maintenance and cleaning. Mr. Spicer explained he amended his proposal so as not to have this type of gunsmithing coming to him. Chair Vijums asked if there was a robbery in the applicants home in 2018. Mr. Spicer stated there was not. He went on to state that he understands this was a sensitive subject for his neighbors. He indicated in one of his conversations with a neighbor he explained he would be willing to discuss the negative concerns and may have to adjust what he was doing with his business. Commissioner Weber commented he paid a lot of money in property taxes as a homeowner and anticipated that renters were contributing to property taxes as well through their rent. He noted he did have concerns about issuing a CUP to an applicant that was renting a home, especially for this type of use, knowing that he could move away and the CUP would remain in place. Chair Vijums questioned if the owner of the home understood what type of business would be operating out of the home. Mr. Spicer stated the property owner was fully aware of his proposal. Commissioner Weber inquired if the property owner had to sign off on the CUP proposal or require a notary. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION – April 6, 2022 7 City Planner Jagoe stated the City does not require the Property Owner signature to be notarized. She noted the property owner did sign the land use application for the CUP and home occupation, and the signature was reviewed with the rental registration paperwork on file with the City. Chair Vijums indicated the CUP that was outlined be staff was very thorough and passed all relevant areas. He noted that the CUP process was started because of the deliveries. He commented on the safety measures that had been put in place by Mr. Spicer. He appreciated the fact that Mr. Spicer’s firearms were kept in a safe. He anticipated Mr. Spicer’s property was more safe than some of the homes on his block where guns may not be kept in a safe. Commissioner Jefferys explained she would like to see that Mr. Spicer has the maximum security measures in place and suggested another condition be added to address this concern. She suggested this condition read: The City is assured that the level of security provided at this residence matches the potential risk due to the nature of the business and shall be approved by the Ramsey County Sheriff. Chair Vijums commented this condition could be added but questioned who would determine what the proper level would be. Commissioner Wicklund stated he appreciated these comments and suggested Condition 8 be amended to require the applicant to provide contracted video security services. He indicated this would provide a definition or measurement as to what type of security should be provided. Commissioner Weber suggested this motion for a condition be amended in order to have the security provided be approved by the Sheriff’s Department. Commissioner Jefferys stated she would like to keep her condition separate from Condition 8. She stated she did not know what the proper level of security would be or what measures should be put in place or not be put in place and would like the sheriff’s department to make this determination. Councilmember Holmes recalled the City requested feedback from the County Sheriff on security at E Street Flats and we did get their recommendation on appropriate level of security and this same request could be made of the Sheriff’s Department for this property. Chair Vijums suggested the condition read: The level of security is approved at this residence as determined by the County Sheriff in coordination with City staff. Commissioner Jefferys indicated she would like her language to remain as is in order to address the level of risk this business potentially may bring into the neighborhood. She recommended Condition 9 read: The level of security is adequate to address the potential risks as determined by the Ramsey County Sheriff. ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION – April 6, 2022 8 Commissioner Jefferys moved, seconded by Commissioner Weber, to add Condition 9 to read as follows: The level of security is adequate to address the potential risks as determined by the Ramsey County Sheriff. The motion carried unanimously (6-0). Commissioner Weber moved and Commissioner Wicklund seconded a motion to recommend approval of Planning Case 22-003 for a Conditional Use Permit to allow a Class II Accessory Home Occupation at 1682 Wedgewood Circle based on the findings of fact and the submitted plans, as amended by the nine (9) conditions in the April 6, 2022, report to the Planning Commission. The motion carried unanimously (6-0). UNFINISHED AND NEW BUSINESS None. REPORTS A. Report from the City Council Councilmember Holmes provided the Commission with an update from the City Council. She welcomed Shelley Blilie and Arlene Mitchell to the Planning Commission. She welcomed the Planning Commissioners back after a three month hiatus and discussed how important the work of the Planning Commission was to the City Council. She then discussed the issues that Council has discussed over the past three months. She noted a roundabout was being proposed by the County at County Road E and Old Snelling Avenue. She anticipated this project would be completed in 2023. Also, review is being done on a trail from County Road E to Highway 96 on Old Hwy 10 in conjunction with the County road work. She noted the Council was considering reducing the speed limit in residential areas to 25 miles per hour and a public hearing would be held this spring and there would also be upcoming public discussion on food trucks. She explained polling places were approved for 2022. Further discussion ensued regarding Round Lake project and dredging that would occur around the lake. B. Planning Commission Comments and Requests None.

Page 1 of 2 DATE: April 25, 2022 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers David Perrault, City Administrator FROM: David Swearingen, P.E. Public Works Director / City Engineer SUBJECT: Arden Oaks Street Improvement Project – Adopt Assessment Roll Council Should Consider Motions to approve, table, or deny the following: • Approving Resolution 2022-023 Adopting Assessment Roll for the Arden Oaks Street Improvement Project. All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted. Background/Discussion On February 14, 2022, the City Council adopted Resolution 2022-006 Approving the Plans and Specifications and Ordering the Advertisement for Bids. Bids were solicited and opened on Wednesday, March 9, 2022. The assessment hearing was held on April 25, 2022. A portion of the costs for the Arden Oaks Street Improvement Project are proposed to be assessed against the benefitting properties according to the City’s Assessment Policy. In order to assess these costs, the City must follow the process outlined in State Statute 429. On March 21, 2022, after the bids were opened, the City Council adopted Resolution 2022-013 Declaring Costs to be Assessed and set today as the date for the assessment hearing. A public hearing prior to adopting the assessments is a requirement of State Statute 429. The proposed assessment area is shown on Attachment A. The project is proposed to be assessed consistent with the City’s Assessment Policy and past practices, which states that 50% of the costs for roadway improvements will be assessed in residential areas, with the remaining portion financed by City funds. Financing for the project is consistent with City policy and past practice and is summarized in the table below. The project costs include 27% engineering and overhead costs. NEW BUSINESS – 10A MEMORANDUM Page 2 of 2 Also, the Council must establish the interest rate at tonight’s Council Meeting. Many cities set their interest rate for assessments at two (2) percentage points over the bond interest rate. The City’s assessment policy states that the interest rate used for the assessment shall be designated at the prime rate plus two (2) percentage points. For the 2021 PMP, the assessment interest rate was set at two (2) percentage points over the assumed bond interest rate which was based on current market conditions at the time, our AAA rating, plus 15 basis points. The result was an assessment interest rate of 3.15%. Our current assumed bond interest rate is 2.90% and the prime rate is 3.50%. Staff would recommend following the City’s assessment policy and setting the assessment rate at 5.50%. The total project costs were analyzed for the assessable cost. The calculation of the amount to be assessed as approved by Council Resolution 2022-013 is shown below. • The assessments related to the project are calculated in accordance with the City’s Assessment policy, is half of the street project cost for residential properties. The assessment rate is $5,834.34 per unit as compared to the Engineer’s estimate of $6,131.10. Arden Oaks Streets Item Calculation Result Construction Cost X 27% Overhead $367,517.20 $466,746.84 50% of Construction Cost $466,746.84 / 2 $233,373.42 Assessment Rate $233,373.42/(40-units) $5,834.34 The full detailed assessment roll can be seen in Attachment B.
