CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION
MAY 16, 2022
5:00 P.M. - ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS
CALL TO ORDER/ROLL CALL
Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, Mayor Grant called to order the City Council
Work Session at 5:00 p.m.
Present: Mayor David Grant, Councilmembers Brenda Holden, Fran Holmes, Steve
Scott and David Radziej
Absent: None
Also present: City Administrator Dave Perrault, Public Works Director/City Engineer
David Swearingen, City Clerk Julie Hanson, Deputy City Clerk Jolene Trauba and Ramsey
County Sheriff Deputy Moe
Mayor Grant requested that Items A and B be reversed.
1.AGENDA ITEMS
A.State Fair Parking
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated that every year the city has a few
locations for State Fair park and rides. Over the years Public Works has created a No Parking
signage plan. Last year the Gathering Place and North Heights Lutheran Church sites were not
used. Staff is waiting for a response from the State Fair to know what locations they are planning
for this year.
Deputy Moe added that the State Fair took about half of the park and rides away last year because
of COVID and not enough staff to drive buses.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen thought they could assume all three will be
back this year and if it turns out they aren’t they can adjust the planning.
Councilmember Holden felt the plan worked good last time, but suggested the City send a letter
to residents affected by the no parking areas.
Deputy Moe suggested using safe paint and paint the curb where the signs should be.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 16, 2022 2
Councilmember Holmes thought there was a lot more traffic on Harriet Avenue and Pine Tree
Drive due to the construction on Lexington Avenue. She thought they may want to sign all of
Pine Tree Drive and on both sides of the street.
After discussion Council agreed.
Deputy Moe confirmed he would like a dot on the curb or road where the sign would be so
there’s no argument if someone pulls the sign. He said another issue is people parking on New
Brighton Road and pulling onto yards, but that is a County road.
After discussion it was decided they should sign the south side of Stowe east of New Brighton
Road to Lake Johanna Boulevard.
Deputy Moe noted that the North Heights parking lot is so large that street parking has not been
an issue in that area.
Mayor Grant asked staff to update the maps and get them to Council.
City Administrator Perrault said last year they didn’t know exact park and ride locations until
August.
Mayor Grant thought a letter to residents could be written appropriately stating if a location is
opened here’s what would happen.
Councilmember Holden suggested a blurb in the city newsletter telling people to check the State
Fair website.
Councilmember Holmes said they could do a newsflash, Twitter and Facebook.
After discussion those avenues would be pursued instead of sending a letter.
B. Food Trucks Discussion
City Administrator Perrault said this was a follow up to the April discussion on food trucks.
Four residents spoke at the meeting, three thought the regulations could be loosened for different
reasons and one resident wanted to limit residential events and wanted to know how violations
were reported. Council had previously considered requiring the property owner/event host to
obtain permit to host a food truck (similar to garage sales), limiting the number of times a
residential property could host a food truck, setting administrative penalties, and language
regarding who is being served; what is considered a “private” event versus what constitutes sales
to the general public.
Councilmember Holmes asked how many trucks were licensed so far this year.
City Clerk Hanson replied there were six licenses issued so far this year, all were temporary
licenses for $30 each, and all were at commercial locations. She did receive a phone call from a
vendor indicating they may be at a garage sale in June.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 16, 2022 3
City Administrator Perrault added that a temporary license was for seven visits or less, and an
annual license was for eight to 21 visits.
Mayor Grant noted that the desire for food trucks has potentially quieted down.
Councilmember Holden said that other cities haven’t had trucks week after week at the same
location and because it has happened here is why they need to look at it. There are neighbors that
don’t mind it once in a while but not every weekend.
Mayor Grant suggested the first question to answer was do people need to apply for a permit.
Councilmember Scott said like garage sales, he’d be in favor of requiring permits for food trucks
with no charge and a limit of two private events a year. He noted that the truck generators make a
lot of noise.
Councilmember Holmes suggested the reference to a private event be removed, and residents
should be allowed to host just two food truck events a year.
Councilmember Radziej said he’d like to see the permit stay with the property owner, that they
could make a phone call to say they are having a truck at their address, to allow for convenience
for the homeowner. He’d like to see trucks charged $20 per event.
City Clerk Hanson said food trucks are required by ordinance to get written permission from the
property owner, and get inspected by the Fire Marshal - although he will only inspect them once
even if they are in the city on other occasions.
City Administrator Perrault said if they are going to require a permit like a garage sale permit
then there would be no need for additional written permission from the residential property owner.
Councilmember Holden stated that so far everyone agreed to two times per residential property.
Councilmember Radziej commented that charging per event would make it easier to track.
City Clerk Hanson thought that trying to get them each time versus once for the license would be
challenging. The resident needs to tell her what truck they are having so she can be sure they are
licensed. Commercial locations need to give permission also.
Councilmember Radziej said he’d like to see sales be for the general public rather than trying to
police if it’s part of a private party.
City Clerk Hanson stated they would have to strike that wording from the ordinance.
Councilmember Holmes thought they should take out the $100 fine.
Mayor Grant felt they would violate as many times as they wanted to if there were no fine.
After further discussion all agreed to have residents apply for a permit in writing with no fee, up
to 2 trucks per year and leave in the administrative fine for violations.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 16, 2022 4
City Administrator Perrault noted that the ordinance language currently states that any violation
could be a misdemeanor, he proposed Council leaves that or add administrative fee. It wouldn’t
need to change if they don’t add a fee.
City Clerk Hanson clarified that were talking about two potential fees, an administrative one for
the resident without a permit, and one for the food truck operator without a license.
City Councilmember Holden recapped: vendors need a license, residents need a permit, if there
are violations, both the vendor and resident get a ticket. Vendors pay the license fee as written in
the code, no cost for resident permit.
Discussion ensued regarding potential City Code language changes. It was decided to leave the
misdemeanor for vendors violating the code, but not the property owner. Property owners could
get a $100 fee for violations. Vendor licensing requirements will stay the same. Staff will work
with the City Attorney and bring revised language to the first Council meeting in June.
C. Spring Lake Park Lions Donation Discussion
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated that Council had directed staff to look
at shade structures for the Perry Park dog park, he also noted the Arden Hills Foundation wish list
was attached and the PTRC gave input as to what they’d like to see the funds used toward.
Councilmember Holden asked if the shelter options were winter proof.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen believed the fabric portion would be
removed in the winter.
Mayor Grant asked if staff looked at the cost for the Don Messerly pavilion.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said he had not.
Councilmember Holmes felt they should look at only what they could do with $10,000 and was
able to be winterized.
Councilmember Holden asked if it was more important to have something for the dogs or
something for the people. If the answer is people they need more places for people to sit, trees
and a shade structure. She asked if the field was all grass.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said there is turf everywhere but you can
still see some of the aggregate from the old baseball field. There are drainage issues but that
would require regrading to fix.
Councilmember Holden suggested some type of dog wash facility or water spout.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said they do get complaints about dogs
getting muddy.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 16, 2022 5
Councilmember Holmes felt that was the nature of a dog park, that dogs will get wet and muddy
if it has rained.
Mayor Grant said the mud issue will be somewhat reduced by putting in the concrete entryway.
It would be nice to have a water hose there.
City Administrator Perrault thought it would be most cost efficient to put a hose at the shelter
and a sign pointing to the shelter.
Councilmember Holden wondered how many tables or benches would be needed if they built a
shade structure. The structure could be like the one at Ingerson Park.
Mayor Grant said it wouldn’t have to have a concrete floor.
Councilmember Radziej added they could start with class 5 rock and if that doesn’t work they
could add concrete down the line.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said he would do more research and bring
his findings back to the next work session.
Councilmember Radziej suggested they ask the Boy Scouts to help.
Mayor Grant said there was a request to segregate an area at Perry Park for small dogs, and that
could be a future project for the county workers. He asked staff to put picnic tables inside the dog
park at Hazelnut Park, and noted the shelter at Perry Park would only need to be large enough for
two picnic tables.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said he has a list of suggested tree species.
Mayor Grant asked staff to send the findings to Council before the meeting it would be discussed
at.
D. Highway 96/Old Highway 10 Speed Sign Update
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated that Public Works had installed a
speed feedback sign along Highway 51 southbound, two signs were purchased rather than install
the second sign on the northbound lane, Council suggested installing it along Highway 96.
Ramsey County Engineers said they would support a sign at any point along Highway 96. Staff’s
recommended location is just east of the Holiday gas station but before the Highway 10 bridge.
Mayor Grant said the justification for a sign along that area is that the traffic is rising to the
intersection, and because of the fatalities that happened at that intersection.
Councilmember Holden wondered if it would slow traffic down once they go past it?
Councilmember Radziej said anytime there is something flashing your eyes are drawn toward it
so it would be a reminder to slow down. He supported the sign on Highway 96.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 16, 2022 6
Councilmember Holden said she is more concerned about New Brighton Road or Pine Tree
Drive where there are no sidewalks or trails. But Highway 96 was fine.
Mayor Grant instructed staff to have it placed where it will have the maximum impact where you
are making a left hand turn onto Old Highway 10.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said he will work with the Ramsey County
engineer for placement eastbound on Highway 96 between Holiday and Highway 10.
E. City Hall Layout Reorganization
City Administrator Perrault said this was discussed by the Personnel Committee as part of the
potential need to add staffing when TCAAP develops and reorganizing now for better efficiency
and effectiveness of departments working together. There were three different scenarios
discussed; moving a department upstairs, transforming the upstairs area into a c-suite for
department heads and city administrator, or making changes to the lobby, basement or both to
build out additional office space. The third option would impact public access and be the most
costly.
City Administrator Perrault stated the preferred option is Option 1; to move a department
upstairs and build out offices there. Public Works makes the most sense to move upstairs, they
will have potential additional staff and the least amount of public contact at City Hall. That would
involve building out two to four offices, retaining some cubes and maintaining some collaborative
work space. Timing-wise they could start right away or wait six months to a year. There has not
been a budget identified yet, but they could be looking at around $10,000 per work space. This
could be done in two phases, moving a department upstairs and the communications person
downstairs in the first phase, and reconfiguring the first floor after additional staff is hired as
phase two.
City Administrator Perrault said the advantage of moving staff includes having department staff
close together to work more effectively and for ease in supervising.
Councilmember Holden said she wants the cubes to be a set size for everyone. She wondered if
there were enough conference rooms. She wanted the upstairs to be lit.
Mayor Grant said his concern was there be enough room for staff to run TCAAP, and not come
back to make more room. If they start building walls and use up floor space and decide later they
need floor space they won’t be taking down walls to recover it. And they may need a small
conference room.
City Administrator Perrault said they are projecting the need for 6 additional staff. If the
Council desires, he could start the planning process with Fluid Interiors or another contractor to
talk about what is possible.
Councilmember Holmes felt that people upstairs aren’t as efficient as they could be and it’s a
disservice to the staff that are upstairs by themselves.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 16, 2022 7
City Administrator Perrault said if they do the build out it would probably be in about 1 ½
years. This is a very preliminary discussion.
Councilmember Holmes indicated only phase one was necessary now.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen noted that he used to work upstairs. It was
nice when there were others there and he sees the benefit of having everyone from the same
department on the same floor.
City Administrator Perrault felt it would be necessary to move Public Works upstairs especially
when TCAAP begins and they add additional staff.
Councilmember Holden asked how many recreation employees they would hire.
City Administrator Perrault replied they are planning for one lower level person and a Parks
and Recreation Director.
Mayor Grant suggested they build an office upstairs and everyone else gets a cubical.
Councilmember Holmes said they could make the cubes upstairs smaller and the cubes
downstairs bigger.
City Administrator Perrault proposed that the Accounting Analyst move to an office, and there
would still be a vacant office for a Senior Planner. However, if they hired a Community
Development Director, the Accounting Analyst would likely move back out of the office. But that
would be during the second phase where they would possibly be knocking down a wall and
adding more cubes.
Councilmember Radziej was in favor of having a game plan, even if it has to change.
Councilmember Scott wondered if there would be a lack of conference rooms.
City Administrator Perrault felt they were doing pretty well with the conference room upstairs,
the smaller one downstairs, the Council chambers, and the lower level space.
Councilmember Radziej wondered how often the lobby waiting area is utilized.
City Administrator Perrault said there may be two to four people, but most of the time it’s not
very utilized.
Deputy City Clerk Trauba added that it depends on the number of meetings there are with
outside people coming in, and that in the evening Parks and Rec activities like dance will cause
the lobby to be full.
Councilmember Radziej said he was thinking of a smaller meeting room in that area.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 16, 2022 8
Councilmember Holden was in favor of looking further into changing the second floor but to
keeping offices to scale, and when the downstairs gets done offices may need to come out and
made a more normal size.
City Administrator Perrault said he’d like to have a preliminary discussion with Fluid Interiors
to get a sense of cost for modular offices.
Councilmember Holden said the priority should be to maximize the space.
Mayor Grant added they need to be sure to not build offices too big only to find out they need
more staff and there’s no place for them to go.
City Administrator Perrault said he would take a step or two forward and bring his findings
back for more discussion.
Councilmember Holden noted once TCAAP gets going we will need space for several
inspectors.
City Administrator Perrault replied that inspectors may be contracted and could work from
tablets in the field with minimal need for desk space.
Mayor Grant suggested taking the amount of space we think we need and add three additional
people.
F. Council Tracker
City Administrator Perrault provided the Council with an update on the Council Tracker. After
discussion, the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office Data Reporting and Quarterly Updates to Council
item was removed from the tracker.
Councilmember Holmes requested that International Paper be added to the tracker.
Discussion ensued regarding International Paper parking semi-trailers along Red Fox Road. It
was decided to tell International Paper to remove trucks from the north side of the road within a
month or they will be ticketed, and to submit a plan of action within two months. Once the plan is
received the decision will be made as to whether or not they will ticket trucks on the south side.
2. COUNCIL COMMENTS AND STAFF UPDATES
Councilmember Holden commented that according to the Met Council affordable housing unit
report Arden Hills has 436 affordable housing units under 30% below the Federal poverty level,
based on 3200 household units, which is over 12%. She felt this information should be told to
residents, as Arden Hills has more at this level than other neighboring communities. She
wondered if the people from All in One had talked with the people in the manufactured home
community.
Councilmember Holmes suggested they could publish an article in the newsletter.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MAY 16, 2022 9
Councilmember Scott said he met with three members of the Karth Lake Improvement District
and took a walking tour. He explained to them that it was storm water flowing into the lake, not
sewer.
Councilmember Scott noted there will be a retirement ceremony for Terry Schwerm at the
Shoreview Community Center Wednesday at 4:00 p.m. Saturday at 10:00 a.m. is Touch a Truck
and Scoops for Troops is Sunday at 10:00 a.m.
Councilmember Holmes said there is someone in her neighborhood with a boat in his front yard
that was sent a letter, he is upset and complaining about other neighbors with similar situations.
Councilmember Holmes said she would like more information on the alarm system for the water
towers.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said they were notified by a passerby that
noticed the water coming out of the ground on Lexington Avenue. Because it was a large break it
drained the water tower to below 20 feet, which is what the alarm is set at, and the alarm did go
off while they were working on the leak.
Councilmember Holmes felt the rate of the water dissipated should also set the alarm off.
City Administrator Perrault said if you bump it too high the alarm will go off every day.
Councilmember Radziej thought Public Works did a great job fixing the break as fast as they
did, and keeping the lift stations working during the storms. He noted he would be gone on June
13.
Mayor Grant wondered if given recent Federal announcements of programs and the amount of
money that is available, would the City be well advised to hire a grant writer? And would that
position be able to fund itself? He asked Council to consider the idea.
City Administrator Perrault noted the Public Works appreciation and staff recognition event
will be pushed out until later this summer. Staff started visiting businesses on Lexington Avenue
to discuss the road construction.

Mayor Grant adjourned the City Council Work Session at 8:10 p.m.

None.
9. PUBLIC HEARINGS
None.
10. NEW BUSINESS
A. Resolution 2022-034 Approving Municipal Support For The Old Snelling
Avenue North And County Road E/Lake Johanna Boulevard Intersection
Improvements
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated On March 21, 2022, at the Work
Session, Council discussed the results of the open-house and public survey for the intersection of
County Rd E and Old Snelling Ave. Ramsey County and the engineering consultant, SRF,
presented and made the recommendation to design a roundabout improvement. At this stage of the
planning and design process, the estimated costs for construction of the roundabout will range
from $1,200,00 to $1,800,000. The City would pay 25% for the south-leg of the intersection (Old
Snelling) plus the watermain and sanitary sewer improvements.
Brian Johnson, SRF, discussed the proposed roundabout in further detail and noted the public
engagement events that were held in recent months. He reported more roundabout educational
materials have been posted to the County’s website. He stated it had been determined a single lane
roundabout would be the best option for this intersection. He commented further on the
roundabout project and requested Council offer their support for the roundabout improvement at
the intersection of County Road E and Old Snelling Avenue.
Councilmember Holden requested further information regarding pedestrian safety.
Mr. Johnson described how pedestrians would navigate through the roundabout, noting
pedestrians would only have to deal with traffic coming from one direction. He noted cars are
supposed to yield to pedestrians.
Councilmember Holden expressed frustration with the fact the County would no be installing a
trail in this area.
Mr. Johnson indicated the roundabout would be graded to connect to trails on both sides of Lake
Johanna Boulevard.
Joey Lindquist, Ramsey County, explained County staff had submitted grant requests to assist
with future trail connections.
Councilmember Holden expressed concern with the fact Lake Johanna Boulevard with be made
more narrow and the shoulder would be eliminated which meant the students from Bethel
University would not have a place to be when walking from campus to the Lake Johanna.
Further discussion ensued regarding the trails and sidewalks that would be constructed around this
intersection.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 23, 2022 5
Ms. Lindquist indicated the County could install a sidewalk along this portion of the roadway for
safety purposes.
Mayor Grant asked how the new trail would fit into the roundabout given the fact the City’s road
would be a different width than the roundabout roadway width.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated Bolton & Menk has coordinated with
SRF and Ramsey County regarding this. He noted the plans for this project were only at 30% at
this time.
Councilmember Holmes questioned if traffic or pedestrians would be able to get through the
intersection while it was being turned into a roundabout.
Ms. Lundquist stated it would be cheaper and faster to close the intersection completely. She
noted if certain legs remained open throughout construction the project would take longer and cost
more.
Councilmember Holden supported the County leaving certain legs open.
Mr. Johnson stated work on this intersection would be inconvenient for the community and noted
the County wants to work with the City and its businesses.
Mayor Grant reported the County was about 30% into the design phase of this project. He
commented further on the importance of this intersection to Arden Hills residents and stated if this
intersection were fully closed a detour would be quite lengthy. He encouraged the County to pay
real close attention to the utilities that were in this space.
Councilmember Holden stated over 38% of the residents in Arden Hills go to St. Paul each
morning to get to work. For this reason, she recommended this intersection remain open while the
roundabout is being constructed.
Councilmember Radziej questioned if this intersection would be shut down if traffic lights were
installed. He anticipated this would not be the case. He anticipated if traffic signals were installed
at this intersection the cost would be even more for this project.
Mr. Johnson commented on how the roundabout was the best long-term solution for this
intersection. He stated he understood this was a critical intersection for the community and he
wants to make sure the construction sequencing was well planned with the City and County
because a lot of people would be impacted by this project.
Councilmember Scott noted there was a large number of student traffic using this intersection on
a daily basis.
Councilmember Holden requested further information on how the City would fund this project.
Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated $330,000 was set aside in this year’s
budget and noted State Aid funds could also be used for this project.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 23, 2022 6
MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Holmes seconded a
motion to approve Resolution #2022-034 – Supporting Ramsey County for a
roundabout improvement at the intersection of County Road E and Old
Snelling Avenue. The motion carried 3-2 (Councilmembers Holden and
Radziej opposed).
B. Resolution 2022-032 – Site Plan Review – 4400 Round Lake Road W (Baker
Hostetler LLP/Saltbox) – PC 22-007
City Planner Jagoe stated at their March 21, 2022 meeting the City Council reviewed a concept
plan for a company called Saltbox. Saltbox offers flexible warehouse and office suites that are
leased by individual businesses, usually startup/small digital commerce companies. They currently
have five (5) locations across the United States. The intent of Saltbox is to provide an all-inclusive
collaborative workspace to small businesses by providing the essential operations and logistical
infrastructure that enables a business to start and scale its growth. Saltbox will be remodeling the
interior of the building to construct flexible work spaces that can be used as either warehouse,
office, or some combination of the two. Suites will range in size from 76 sq. ft. up to approx.
2,000 sq. ft. The suites are constructed with 10’ high modular walls that are open above with no
ceilings. Each suite is equipped with power, HVAC, and Wi-Fi as well as access to a shared
central loading dock for shipping/delivery needs. Each Saltbox facility is designed with
conference rooms, huddle rooms/lounges, bathrooms, main entry/welcoming area, and a break
room that are shared by the small business tenants. The facility is open seven (7) days a week
from 6 AM to 11 PM.
City Planner Jagoe explained Saltbox employs Operations Specialists that handle the on-demand
logistical services for receipt and delivery of packages, plus they are able to provide order
fulfillment assistance to the small business owners. A package that is delivered to Saltbox is
received by the Operations Specialist at the loading dock. The Saltbox employee then distributes
smaller boxes to the individual suites or there is secured warehouse space for larger packages.
Saltbox employees are onsite from 8 AM to 6 PM. The Applicant has stated this window of time
is when 95% of their activity is expected to occur
City Planner Jagoe reported the Arden Hills location would be for 214 warehouse and office
suites with an estimated maximum occupancy of 398 members and 15 Saltbox employees.
Saltbox would say that their flexible business model means that the 398 members would not be at
the facility at the same time, but rather come and go at the needs of their individual business. As
part of the improvements to the property, the Applicant is proposing to reconfigure the parking lot
layout that would result in the immediate addition of 36 parking spaces and also identifies an area
as proof of parking as a placeholder for future installation of parking spaces. Therefore, the
Applicant is pursuing the Site Plan Review for the additional parking spaces.
City Planner Jagoe reviewed the Plan Evaluation and offered the following Findings of Fact:
1. The Applicant has submitted an application for Site Plan Review to install striping for
additional parking spaces at the subject property 4440 Round Lake Road W.
2. The Subject Property is located with the Gateway Business District and is guided as Light
Industrial & Office on the 2040 Land Use Plan.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 23, 2022 7
3. The Subject Property was developed prior to the City’s creation of the Gateway Business
District and is considered to be legal nonconforming.
4. The Applicant intends to continue the utilization of the existing 113,565 square foot
building for office and warehouse purposes in a manner consistent with the
nonconforming regulations.
5. The Applicant will be reconfiguring the parking lot layout within the boundaries of the
existing parking lot.
6. The proposed plan does not conflict with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning
Code or the Comprehensive Development Plan for the City.
7. The application is not anticipated to create a negative impact on the immediate area or the
community as a whole.
8. The proposed plan will not produce any permanent noise, odors, vibration, smoke, dust, air
pollution, heat, liquid, or solid waste, and other nuisance characteristics.
9. The proposed plan is not anticipated to have any impact on traffic or parking conditions.
10. A public hearing is not required for Site Plan Review.
City Planner Jagoe commented on the request further and reported the Planning Commission
recommended adoption of Resolution 2022-032, approving Planning Case 22-007, for Site Plan
Review at 4440 Round Lake Road W. as presented in the May 23, 2022 Report to the City
Council as amended by the conditions below:
1) That the project shall be completed in accordance with the plans submitted. Any
significant changes to these plans, as determined by the City Planner, shall require review
and approval by the Planning Commission and City Council.
2) The proposed parking spaces and drive aisles shall conform to all other regulations in the
City Code.
3) A building permit shall be obtained prior to installation for the parking spaces identified as
“Proof of Parking”. Future installation of Proof of Parking area can be processed
administratively through the Planning Department as part of the Site Plan approval if
completed in accordance with the plans submitted under this review.
4) Saltbox shall be required to maintain a listing of building tenants and provide said listing
to the City upon request as needed for verification of occupancy in satisfaction of
nonconforming uses.
Councilmember Holden asked where the UPS drop off would be for this property.
City Planner Jagoe noted the main entrance of the building would be used or the loading dock
area. She encouraged the applicant to speak to this further.
David Sorensen, Saltbox representative, explained there was an existing drive in door that would
be used for shipping and receiving.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 23, 2022 8
MOTION: Councilmember Holmes moved and Councilmember Radziej seconded a
motion to approve Resolution 2022-032 - Planning Case 22-007 for a Site Plan
Review for Baker Hostetler LLP on behalf of Saltbox to reconfigure the
parking lot layout for tenants of the 113,000 square foot office and
warehousing facility at 4440 Round Lake Road West based on the findings of
fact and submitted plans, and the four (4) conditions in the May 23, 2022,
Report to the City Council. The motion carried (5-0).
C. Resolution 2022-033 – Variance – 1152 Benton Way (William and Adrienne
Guelker) – PC 22-004
City Planner Jagoe stated 1152 Benton Way, the Subject Property, is zoned R-3, Townhouse and
Low Density Multiple Dwelling District. It is designated for Low Density Residential Uses in the
2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The subject property is the site of a single-family dwelling
owned by the Applicants. Surrounding parcels to the North, East, and South are also zoned R-3,
Townhouse and Low Density Multiple Dwelling District and designated for Low Density
Residential Uses in the 2040 Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The parcel to the West is zoned B-2,
General Business District and designated for Community Mixed Use in the 2040 Comprehensive
Land Use Plan.
City Planner Jagoe reviewed the Site Data, Plan Evaluation and offered the following Findings
of Fact:
General Findings:
1. City Staff received a land use application for a variance request to the required combined
side yard setback and landscaped area and increase the allowed structure coverage and
floor area ratio at the Subject Property, 1152 Benton Way.
2. The Subject Property is located within the Hunters Park Planned Unit Development which
was approved with flexibility in the development standards.
3. The Subject Property does not comply with the underlying R-3 district standards for lot
size, combined side yard setbacks, structure coverage, and floor area ratio.
4. The proposed building addition would maintain the current side yard setbacks and be
located 5.8 feet from the south side yard property line. The combined side yard setbacks
would remain 11.6 feet.
5. The proposed addition would not require a rear yard setback variance.
6. The structure coverage is proposed to increase from 27% to 30% of the Subject Property.
A variance is required to exceed 25% structure coverage of a parcel.
7. The landscaped area is proposed to decrease from 65% to 62% of the Subject Property. A
variance is required to reduce landscaped area below 65% of the parcel.
8. The Floor Area Ratio (FAR) is proposed to increase from 0.31 to 0.36. A variance is
required to increase FAR above 0.3.
9. The proposed addition of the subject parcel would conform to all other requirements and
standards of the R-3 district.
10. The City Council has approved similar variance requests for other properties in the
Hunters Park Planned Unit Development.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 23, 2022 9
Variance Findings:
11. Variances are only permitted when they are in harmony with the general purposes and
intent of the ordinance.
12. A single-family detached dwelling with an addition is a reasonable use within the R-3
District.
13. The nonconforming lot size for the R-3 District, which was approved as part of the
Hunters Park Planned Unit Development, and the substantial amount of shared open space
that is part of the development, presents a unique situation for the property owner.
14. The proposed addition will not reduce the existing side yard setbacks. The addition will
not require a rear yard setback variance. The nearest dwelling unit to the south of the
Subject Property is approximately 18 feet away.
15. The increase in lot coverage and the decrease in landscaped area are unlikely to have a
negative impact on the Hunters Park Development, due to the abundance of shared
greenspace throughout the development. There is a total of seven acres of Homeowners
Association common greenspace throughout the neighborhood.
16. The variance request is not based on economic considerations alone.
17. The Applicants have received approval from the Hunters Park Architectural and
Environmental Committee for the proposed addition.
City Planner Jagoe commented further on the request and reported the Planning Commission
recommended approval of Planning Case 22-004, for a Variance at 1152 Benton Way as presented
in the May 23, 2022 Report to the City Council as amended by the conditions below:
1. A Building Permit shall be issued prior to commencement of construction.
2. The proposed building shall conform to all other standards and regulations in City Code.
Councilmember Holmes reported the Council received a comment objecting to this variance
today from the public.
Councilmember Holden stated the applicant was proposing a significant increase to a small lot.
She asked if a smaller addition would better fit the City’s requirements.
City Planner Jagoe commented the existing structure coverage already exceeded the City’s
maximum requirement. She noted any addition to this property would trigger a variance.
Councilmember Scott discussed the proposed finished area, which would be under the deck,
noting the deck would remain the same.
Bill Guelker, 1152 Benton Way, thanked the Council for considering his request. He stated the
current deck was 12’ by 20’ and this would be removed. He explained he would like to put a two
story 14’ by 14’ gabled addition onto the home along with a 12’ by 14’ deck in the space where
the existing deck was located. He reported the addition would house a dining room that would
better meet the needs of his family. He indicated his home backed up to Bethel University and
there was only woods behind his house. He stated he would like to take advantage of the view
from the back of his home.
Councilmember Holden questioned how far the current deck extends from the house.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MAY 23, 2022 10
Mr. Guelker stated the deck sticks out 12 feet.
Councilmember Scott requested further comment regarding the two story addition.
Mr. Guelker indicated he was proposing to construct a 14’ by 14’ two story addition with a
dining room on upper level and a workshop on the lower level.
Further discussion ensued regarding the other homes in his neighborhood that received variances.
MOTION: Mayor Grant moved and Councilmember Scott seconded a motion to approve
Resolution 2022-033, approving Planning Case 22-004, for a variance at 1152
Benton Way.
Councilmember Holmes discussed the side yard setback for this property noting there would be
no change after the addition would completed.
City Planner Jagoe reported this was the case.
Councilmember Holden indicated she would not be supporting this request due to the size of the
proposed addition.
The motion approving Resolution 2022-033 Approving Planning Case 22-004
for a variance at 1152 Benton Way based on the findings of fact and
submitted plans and the conditions in the May 23, 2022 Report to the City
Council carried 4-1 (Councilmember Holden opposed).

to the City’s parks.
Mayor Grant stated he attended a Twin Cities Gateway meeting last week and noted this
organization would be sending the Arden Hills $3,500 to promote City events.
Mayor Grant commented he attended the 911 Dispatch Policy meeting and noted this group
reviewed response times and the 2022 budget.
Mayor Grant explained he attended the Touch a Truck event on Saturday and thanked Public
Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen for his assistance with this event.
Mayor Grant indicated the City Administrator and other staff members have been visiting the
businesses along Lexington Avenue as a result of the County’s construction project. He requested
an update from staff on these visits.
City Administrator Perrault provided the Council with an update on the meetings he had with
the local business owners along Lexington Avenue. He stated the feedback was that businesses
were frustrated, but understood this was a County project. He explained the businesses
appreciated the fact the City was reaching out and would be taking their feedback to the County.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 13, 2022
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers
Dave Perrault, City Administrator
FROM: Jessica Jagoe, City Planner
SUBJECT: Sale of City Owned Parcel at 3588 Ridgewood Road
Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source:
N/A N/A N/A
Council Should Consider
Motions to approve, table, or deny the following:
• A six month listing contract with John Peck, ReMax Results, for the exclusive right to
sell the city owned parcel at 3588 Ridgewood Road.
All items need a simple majority for action unless otherwise noted.
Background/Discussion
At the December 20, 2021 City Council Work Session, the Council directed staff to begin
solicitation for a real estate agent to list the city owned property at 3588 Ridgewood Road for
sale to the general public. Staff prepared a Request for Qualifications which included
information on the parcel. This request asked that interested agents also include their terms for
listing the parcel. In May, this packet was sent out to ten local agents to solicit interest. The
City received two responses and both agents were interviewed by a panel consisting of Dave
Perrault, Jolene Trauba, and myself.
The interview panel is recommending the City Council authorize execution of the listing contract
with John Peck, ReMax Results. The terms of the contract are a six month listing agreement,
with a six month tail where compensation may be due to the broker for any sale, with the
compensation being $499 plus 6% of sale price (Attachment A). In the event Mr. Peck finds a
Page 2 of 2
buyer who is unrepresented, the commission will be reduced to 5.5%. The City Attorney has
reviewed the listing contract and determined it to be satisfactory for approval.
Mr. Peck is located at the Shoreview office with ReMax Results. He has 17+ years of
experience as a licensed residential Realtor. He has an extensive portfolio of residential sales
and familiarity with the Arden Hills community.
Upon approval of the contract, city staff will notify Mr. Peck to proceed with immediate listing
of the property. Prior to release of any marketing, the property listing language will be reviewed
by the City Attorney. Staff suggests that the listing price and duration of posting for offers
follow the recommendations of Mr. Peck.

169. ADDITIONAL COSTS: Seller acknowledges that Seller may be required to pay certain closing costs, which may
170. effectively reduce the proceeds from the sale.
171. Seller understands that mortgage financing services are usually paid for by buyer; however, certain insured government
172. loans may require Seller to pay a portion of the fees for the mortgage loan. Seller understands that Seller shall not
173. be required to pay the financing fees on any mortgage without giving Seller’s written consent.
174. FOREIGN INVESTMENT IN REAL PROPERTY TAX ACT (“FIRPTA”): Section 1445 of the Internal Revenue Code
175. provides that a transferee (“Buyer”) of a United States real property interest must be notified in writing and must
176. withhold tax from the transferor (“Seller”) if the transferor (“Seller”) is a foreign person, provided there are no applicable
177. exceptions from FIRPTA withholding.
178. Seller represents and warrants that Seller IS IS NOT a foreign person (i.e., a non-resident alien individual,
-----(Check one.)----
179. foreign corporation, foreign partnership, foreign trust, or foreign estate) for purposes of income taxation.
180. Due to the complexity and potential risks of failing to comply with FIRPTA, Seller should seek appropriate legal and
181. tax advice regarding FIRPTA compliance, as Broker will be unable to confirm whether Seller is a foreign person
182. or whether the withholding requirements of FIRPTA apply.
183. WARRANTY: There are warranty programs available for some properties which warrant the performance of certain
184. components of a property, which warranty programs Seller may wish to investigate prior to the sale of the Property.
185. AGENCY REPRESENTATION: If a buyer represented by Broker wishes to buy the Seller’s Property, a dual
186. agency will be created. This means that Broker will represent both the Seller and the buyer, and owe the same
187. duties to the buyer that Broker owes to the Seller. This conflict of interest will prohibit Broker from advocating exclusively
188. on the Seller’s behalf. Dual agency will limit the level of representation Broker can provide. If a dual agency should arise,
189. the Seller will need to agree that confidential information about price, terms, and motivation will still be kept
190. confidential unless the Seller instructs Broker in writing to disclose specific information about the Seller. All other
191. information will be shared. Broker cannot act as a dual agent unless both the Seller and the buyer agree to it. By
192. agreeing to a possible dual agency, the Seller will be giving up the right to exclusive representation in an in-house
193. transaction. However, if the Seller should decide not to agree to a possible dual agency, and the Seller wants Broker
194. to represent the Seller, the Seller may give up the opportunity to sell the Property to buyers represented by Broker.

326B.148 SURCHARGE.
Subdivision 1. Computation. To defray the costs of administering sections 326B.101 to 326B.194, a
surcharge is imposed on all permits issued by municipalities in connection with the construction of or addition
or alteration to buildings and equipment or appurtenances after June 30, 1971. The commissioner may use
any surplus in surcharge receipts to award grants for code research and development and education.
If the fee for the permit issued is fixed in amount the surcharge is equivalent to one-half mill (.0005) of
the fee or $1, except that effective July 1, 2010, until June 30, 2015, the permit surcharge is equivalent to
one-half mill (.0005) of the fee or $5, whichever amount is greater. For all other permits, the surcharge is
as follows:
(1) if the valuation of the structure, addition, or alteration is $1,000,000 or less, the surcharge is equivalent
to one-half mill (.0005) of the valuation of the structure, addition, or alteration;
(2) if the valuation is greater than $1,000,000, the surcharge is $500 plus two-fifths mill (.0004) of the
value between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000;
(3) if the valuation is greater than $2,000,000, the surcharge is $900 plus three-tenths mill (.0003) of
the value between $2,000,000 and $3,000,000;
(4) if the valuation is greater than $3,000,000, the surcharge is $1,200 plus one-fifth mill (.0002) of the
value between $3,000,000 and $4,000,000;
(5) if the valuation is greater than $4,000,000, the surcharge is $1,400 plus one-tenth mill (.0001) of the
value between $4,000,000 and $5,000,000; and
(6) if the valuation exceeds $5,000,000, the surcharge is $1,500 plus one-twentieth mill (.00005) of the
value that exceeds $5,000,000.
Subd. 2. Collection and reports. All permit surcharges must be collected by each municipality and a
portion of them remitted to the state. Each municipality having a population greater than 20,000 people shall
prepare and submit to the commissioner once a month a report of fees and surcharges on fees collected
during the previous month but shall retain the greater of two percent or that amount collected up to $25 to
apply against the administrative expenses the municipality incurs in collecting the surcharges. All other
municipalities shall submit the report and surcharges on fees once a quarter but shall retain the greater of
four percent or that amount collected up to $25 to apply against the administrative expenses the municipalities
incur in collecting the surcharges. The report, which must be in a form prescribed by the commissioner,
must be submitted together with a remittance covering the surcharges collected by the 15th day following
the month or quarter in which the surcharges are collected.
A municipality that fails to report or submit the required remittance to the department in accordance
with this subdivision is subject to the remedies provided by section 326B.082.
Subd. 3. Revenue to equal costs. Revenue received from the surcharge imposed in subdivision 1 should
approximately equal the cost, including the overhead cost, of administering sections 326B.101 to 326B.194.

326B.148 SURCHARGE.
Subdivision 1. Computation. To defray the costs of administering sections 326B.101 to 326B.194, a
surcharge is imposed on all permits issued by municipalities in connection with the construction of or addition
or alteration to buildings and equipment or appurtenances after June 30, 1971. The commissioner may use
any surplus in surcharge receipts to award grants for code research and development and education.
If the fee for the permit issued is fixed in amount the surcharge is equivalent to one-half mill (.0005) of
the fee or $1, except that effective July 1, 2010, until June 30, 2015, the permit surcharge is equivalent to
one-half mill (.0005) of the fee or $5, whichever amount is greater. For all other permits, the surcharge is
as follows:
(1) if the valuation of the structure, addition, or alteration is $1,000,000 or less, the surcharge is equivalent
to one-half mill (.0005) of the valuation of the structure, addition, or alteration;
(2) if the valuation is greater than $1,000,000, the surcharge is $500 plus two-fifths mill (.0004) of the
value between $1,000,000 and $2,000,000;
(3) if the valuation is greater than $2,000,000, the surcharge is $900 plus three-tenths mill (.0003) of
the value between $2,000,000 and $3,000,000;
(4) if the valuation is greater than $3,000,000, the surcharge is $1,200 plus one-fifth mill (.0002) of the
value between $3,000,000 and $4,000,000;
(5) if the valuation is greater than $4,000,000, the surcharge is $1,400 plus one-tenth mill (.0001) of the
value between $4,000,000 and $5,000,000; and
(6) if the valuation exceeds $5,000,000, the surcharge is $1,500 plus one-twentieth mill (.00005) of the
value that exceeds $5,000,000.
Subd. 2. Collection and reports. All permit surcharges must be collected by each municipality and a
portion of them remitted to the state. Each municipality having a population greater than 20,000 people shall
prepare and submit to the commissioner once a month a report of fees and surcharges on fees collected
during the previous month but shall retain the greater of two percent or that amount collected up to $25 to
apply against the administrative expenses the municipality incurs in collecting the surcharges. All other
municipalities shall submit the report and surcharges on fees once a quarter but shall retain the greater of
four percent or that amount collected up to $25 to apply against the administrative expenses the municipalities
incur in collecting the surcharges. The report, which must be in a form prescribed by the commissioner,
must be submitted together with a remittance covering the surcharges collected by the 15th day following
the month or quarter in which the surcharges are collected.
A municipality that fails to report or submit the required remittance to the department in accordance
with this subdivision is subject to the remedies provided by section 326B.082.
Subd. 3. Revenue to equal costs. Revenue received from the surcharge imposed in subdivision 1 should
approximately equal the cost, including the overhead cost, of administering sections 326B.101 to 326B.194.
