Approved: April 24, 2023 CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING MARCH 13, 2023 7:00 P.M. - ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL CHAMBERS CALL TO ORDER/ROLL CALL Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, Mayor David Grant called to order the regular City Council meeting at 7:00 p.m. Present: Mayor David Grant, Councilmembers Brenda Holden, Emily Rousseau, Tom Fabel and Tena Monson Absent: None Also present: City Administrator Dave Perrault; Public Works Director/City Engineer David Swearingen; Community Development Director Jessica Jagoe; Finance Director Gayle Bauman; City Attorney Joel Jamnik; and Assistant to the City Administrator/City Clerk Julie Hanson PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE 1.APPROVAL OF AGENDA Councilmember Holden requested Items 7D and 7K be pulled from the Consent Agenda for further consideration as Items 8A and 8B. MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Rousseau seconded a motion to approve the meeting agenda as amended. The motion carried (5-0). 2.PUBLIC INQUIRIES/INFORMATIONAL Councilmember Holden expressed frustration with how the Public Inquiries/Informational portion of the meeting was handled at the February 27 City Council meeting. She questioned why the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office was involved. She requested the Mayor review how public comments would be managed going forward. Mayor Grant explained he attended the February 27 meeting remotely. He was told someone on the City Council asked the Sheriff’s Office to enforce the time limit. He reported this will not be ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MARCH 13, 2023 2 something he will be request going forward, but rather he would ask speakers to keep their comments to three minutes and would manage this situation with the gavel. Linda Swanson, 1124 Ingerson Road, explained there was a misunderstanding by some of the citizens about the use of the term “the slate”. She reported at the last Council meeting a citizen stood up saying that they found it offensive to call the new Councilmembers “the slate”. She stated the phrase “the slate” originated from the new Councilmembers during their campaign. She encouraged the public to visit their website where they ask residents to elect “the full slate” of candidates and that the new candidates were running on a “slate” entitled Advance Arden Hills. She stated Councilmember Monson states in her bio on the City’s webpage that Gregg Larson, Emily Rousseau and Tom Fabel were running as a slate. She indicated she was surprised and disappointed that the new Councilmembers did not remind the concerned citizens that they were the ones that originated the term “slate”. George Winiecki, 4175 Old Highway 10, explained he has lived on his property for the past 74 years and has watched Arden Hills change over the years. He noted he was not at the January Council meeting, but he had read through the minutes. He indicated at the February meeting he listened to residents express displeasure against the Mayor and Councilmember Holden. He noted he understood where the Mayor and Councilmember Holden stood on the TCAAP property, but he did not know where the new Councilmembers stood on this property. He indicated he would be calling each of the new Councilmembers in order to gather this information. He explained he did not understand why TCAAP was an issue when the City and County signed a document for this development, Ramsey County then sued the City and the City won. He questioned what the problem was. He feared there was some hidden agenda behind this project because it was not moving forward. He commented on how he was impacted by big government (MnDOT) when I- 694 was reconstructed. He encouraged the new City Councilmembers to not believe everything Ramsey County was telling them, but rather they should be doing their due diligence on behalf of the residents of Arden Hills. Donna Wiemann, 1406 Arden View Drive, explained Arden Hills residents would be more financially impacted by the TCAAP development compared to Ramsey County as a whole. She noted Arden Hills residents will shoulder most of the front end costs and City staff will put in the most hours for this project. She reported if TIF was used for this project this will also impact Arden Hills residents. She commented on how Arden Hills residents will be impacted by the traffic that is generated from this project. She asked that Arden Hills residents be involved in the planning of this project because of the impact it will have on the community. She asked that the new City Councilmembers remain transparent throughout the entire planning process. Mary Henry, 3521 Ridgewood Court, reported she read the minutes from the last work session and she supported the City holding open houses for the Rice Creek Commons development. In addition, she suggested a survey be conducted by a consultant of all Arden Hills residents. She feared that not enough residents would attend the open house meetings and the survey would provide the City Council with greater information. Kathy Sukke, 1286 Karth Lake Circle, explained she has lived in Arden Hills for the past 37 years. She thanked Mayor Grant for chairing this meeting in a professional manner. She indicated she was very disturbed by the last Council meeting. She indicated the February 13 Council ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MARCH 13, 2023 3 meeting was chaired by Mayor Pro Tem Emily Rousseau and it was disorderly and fraught with confusion. She questioned why Mayor Pro Tem Rousseau found it necessary to call in the Ramsey County Sheriff’s Office to manage the public inquiries portion of the meeting, when that was her job as the Mayor Pro Tem. She indicated critics of the slate received less time and those for the slate’s agenda received more time. She assumed Mayor Pro Tem Rousseau signaled the officer from her chair with the time. She anticipated if Mayor Pro Tem Rousseau was able to signal an officer, she would be able to use the gavel. She explained she has never seen a fully uniformed officer attending a City Council meeting in order to assist with public inquiries. She anticipated the officer that attended this meeting had more pressing matters in the community they could have been dealing with than to do Mayor Pro Tem Rousseau’s bidding. She asked that the new Councilmembers brush up on their civics, and she provided the new Councilmembers with a copy of the Constitution. She reminded the new Councilmembers that law abiding residents have the right to exercise their first amendment right. She then read the first amendment from the Constitution. 3. RESPONSE TO PUBLIC INQUIRIES None. 4. PUBLIC PRESENTATIONS A. Twin Cities Chamber North Updates John Connelly, President of Twin Cities North Chamber of Commerce, introduced himself to the Council and thanked them for their time. He explained the vision for the Chamber was to promote business, develop leaders and connect communities. He noted the Chamber currently had just over 300 members from seven different cities. He reported the Chamber had a healthy fund balance with five months reserves and no debt. He encouraged the Council to consider attending an upcoming program or event. He commented on the makeup of the nine member Chamber Board. He then discussed the new initiatives the Chamber was pursuing which included the manufacturing cohort. He commented on the Chamber opportunities noting he enjoyed participating in grand openings, engaging in new initiatives, bringing important items to businesses, and sharing vital news with the community. He thanked Arden Hills for being an inviting City for the community and its businesses. Councilmember Holden encouraged the Chamber to plan an event to celebrate the reopening of Lexington Avenue. Mayor Grant reported the City received $3,500 from Twin Cities Gateway Visitor Bureau and noted these funds were used to assist with a marketing campaign for Lexington Avenue. Mr. Connelly explained the Chamber was planning to celebrate this event and to encourage the public to come back to this corridor. 5. STAFF COMMENTS A. TCAAP/Rice Creek Commons Update ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MARCH 13, 2023 4 City Administrator Perrault reported on March 7 the City Council interviewed two candidates for the JDA Chair and appointed Jonathan Wicklund. He explained Jonathan Wicklund will serve as Chair until December 31, 2024. He noted the JDA advisory group met last week and reaffirmed that meetings of the advisory group would not be public unless a quorum is present, future communication efforts by the JDA will be a joint effort by both the City and the County, and the County is pursuing a legal services agreement with Kennedy & Graven. He noted the JDA advisory group also discussed the possibility of future open houses and public engagement regarding: financing of the project, real estate trends, economic inclusion, and climate policies. Future discussions need to happen as to the timing of the public discussions and engagement. He said that the group also discussed the creation of additional advisory committees, such as an energy committee. Lastly, they discussed the County would be reviewing options on the thumb property and will be seeking guidance from the JDA. 6. APPROVAL OF MINUTES A. February 13, 2023, Regular City Council B.

The motion carried (5-0). 8. PULLED CONSENT ITEMS A. Motion To Approve Personnel Policy Update Pertaining To Paid Parenting Leave Language City Administrator Perrault stated the Personnel Committee recently discussed adding Paid Parenting Leave to the City’s Personnel Policy. The draft language would allow for eighty hours of paid leave to be provided to parents upon the birth or adoption of a child assuming they met certain criteria. As part of the research for this draft policy change, City Staff looked at what nearby cities offer to set a baseline. Cities vary from offering no Paid Parental Leave to more than the eighty hours being proposed; for example, White Bear Township offers no paid leave, while Vadnais Heights offers up to 200 hours depending on the type of birth and other circumstances. It should be noted that for mothers, they also have available the City paid Short Term Disability insurance, which offers four to six weeks of disability pay upon the birth of a child. When combined with this leave it would offer approximately six to eight weeks of paid leave. Should Council approve this language it will be incorporated into the City’s Personnel Policy. Councilmember Holden asked if this change would apply to union employees. City Administrator Perrault reported this policy update would apply to both union and non- union employees. Councilmember Holden questioned if this leave was concurrent with FMLA. City Administrator Perrault stated employees could take this time with FMLA, or after the 12 week period if an employee had PTO saved up. Councilmember Holden inquired if staff received any negative feedback from staff regarding the proposed personnel policy change. City Administrator Perrault explained he did not receive any negative feedback from staff regarding the proposed policy change. Councilmember Monson indicated she was disappointed with this policy and she believed the City could do more. She stated she did not support the proposed policy. She believed the City ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MARCH 13, 2023 6 could provide at least six weeks of paid leave. She supported the Council having a conversation around the value of its employees. She asked if the City valued putting money into its employees or did the City value something else. She explained she supported putting pay back into its employees and allowing them to have time with their children. She understood that not every employee may need six weeks, but she wanted to see the City having that as an option for new parents. She understood it was important to have the Public Works Department fully staffed, but she also understood raising families was just as important. She indicated she did not support the policy as is and noted if it were approved, she would be bringing it back for further consideration because she believed the City could do more. MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Mayor Grant seconded a motion to Approve Personnel Policy Update Pertaining To Paid Parenting Leave Language. Mayor Grant stated he believed it was important for the City to offer its employees paid parental leave. He explained the Personnel Committee reviewed this item and offered their support. Councilmember Fabel reported he spoke with staff regarding the proposed policy and learned that the policy was fair when compared to communities of like size. Mayor Grant agreed this was a fair assessment, noting some communities offered two weeks of paid parental leave, some offered six to eight weeks and some offered none. The motion to Approve Personnel Policy Update Pertaining To Paid Parenting Leave Language carried (5-0). B. Motion To Approve Resolution 2023-012 Relating To No Mow May For Arden Hills Residents And Businesses City Administrator Perrault stated at the February work session, the City Council discussed No Mow May and directed Staff to move forward with bringing forward a resolution for approval that would allow residences and businesses the opportunity to participate. No Mow May is an effort to help protect pollinators during the spring season. He discussed how the City would manage complaints noting properties would have to be brought into compliance by June 10. Councilmember Holden stated she wanted citizens to be aware of No Mow May. She explained Arden Hills was a complaint based City and reported residents would have until June 10 to bring their lawn into compliance. Councilmember Rousseau recommended an article be included in an upcoming City newsletter to provide the public with further information on No Mow May. City Administrator Perrault reported an article has been included in the upcoming March newsletter. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MARCH 13, 2023 7 MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Rousseau seconded a motion to Approve Resolution 2023-012 Relating To No Mow May For Arden Hills Residents And Businesses. The motion carried (5-0). 9.PUBLIC HEARINGS None. 10.NEW BUSINESS None. 11.UNFINISHED BUSINESS None. 12.COUNCIL COMMENTS Councilmember Monson thanked Larry Higgins, resident of Arden Hills, for working with her on additional outreach and support to the citizens that live in Arden Manor. She explained she has been working with Mr. Higgins to address playground access within Arden Manor. Councilmember Monson thanked the Public Works Department for allowing her to complete a snow plow ride-along. She noted she would also be conducting a ride-along with the Ramsey County Sheriff’s office. Councilmember Monson stated last week she visited the Capitol for Clean Energy Day. She discussed how important clean energy was to the community, noting she would be pushing for the TCAAP project to be net zero. She reported the Council would be discussing a climate action plan for Arden Hills. Councilmember Monson welcomed Jon Wicklund to the JDA and noted she was looking forward working with him. Councilmember Fabel thanked the Public Works Department for their tremendous efforts to clear the city of snow after the recent snow events. Councilmember Holden thanked Councilmember Monson for her efforts to champion sustainability and clean energy for Arden Hills. Councilmember Holden asked that staff speak with the Mayor of Shoreview to see if Arden Hills residents could receive a discounted rate for use at their community center. She asked that this be placed on a future work session agenda. Councilmember Holden reminded residents that they are not to plow snow across City or County roads. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MARCH 13, 2023 8 Councilmember Holden explained the County filled some of the potholes along New Brighton Road, but not all of the potholes. She asked that staff speak with Ramsey County to ensure the remaining potholes on New Brighton Road are filled and requested information be included in this week’s Admin Update. Councilmember Holden supported the City completing a City-wide survey and asked that this item be placed on a work session agenda. Councilmember Holden discussed the communication Alatus had with the City and reviewed the terms from Ramsey County. She reported the City did not receive these terms until January 2023. She stated it was a real shame that this information had not been provided to the City sooner. Councilmember Rousseau explained she also supported the City completing a City-wide survey and discussing this at a future work session. Councilmember Rousseau commented on the items that were discussed by the PTRC at their last meeting. She welcomed Nancy Jacobsen to the PTRC and noted the PTRC still had one open seat. Councilmember Rousseau stated the Planning Commission met on March 8 and discussed two planning cases. She requested the Council add the removal of racial covenants to a future work session. Mayor Grant stated Barr Engineering and Consulting has sent the City a wellhead plan from Shoreview. He reported this plan has to be reviewed and commented on by City Staff. Mayor Grant explained he received a plan review approval request for the watermain at County Road E and Old Snelling from the Department of Health. Mayor Grant requested staff speak with Ramsey County regarding the retaining walls that had deteriorated and needed to be replaced in 2023. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen reported he had reached out to the County and they reported the project was on hold as of now but they are planning to replace the retaining walls this year. Mayor Grant requested an update on the Met Council water conservation program. City Administrator Perrault reported funding for this program was through the Legacy Grant Program with the State of Minnesota and this funding ended in 2022. Mayor Grant explained he attended the administrator and city manager meeting this afternoon. He noted the city of Roseville would be making changes to require EV charging stations. Mayor Grant supported the City addressing racial covenants that may be in place in conjunction with Just Deeds. He reported residents may not realize their deeds have certain restrictions in place from many years. He recommended this topic be further addressed at a future work session. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL – MARCH 13, 2023 9 Mayor Grant stated the City may need to consider a rental licensing program in the future. Mayor Grant commented on the Ramsey County Sheriff being asked to remove people from the podium at the last meeting. He noted he spoke with the Sheriff’s Office and explained this action would not occur at future meeting. ADJOURN MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Monson seconded a motion to adjourn. The motion carried (5-0). Mayor Grant adjourned the Regular City Council Meeting at 8:22 p.m. __________________________ David Grant __________________________ Jolene Trauba Deputy City Clerk Mayor Approved: April 24, 2023 CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION MARCH 20, 2023 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, Emily Rousseau, Tena Monson and Tom Fabel Absent: None Also present: City Administrator Dave Perrault, Public Works Director/City Engineer David Swearingen, Assistant Public Works Director Lucas Miller, Deputy Clerk Jolene Trauba, Northeast Youth and Family Services (NYFS) President/CEO Angela Lewis- Dmello and Ethical Leaders in Action (ELA) President Chad Weinstein 1.PUBLIC INQUIRIES/INFORMATIONAL Gregg Larson, 3377 North Snelling Avenue, complimented the Council on broadcasting the work sessions and the addition of public comment. He also gave compliments to the new Council on proposed revisions to public inquiry language. He felt consideration of the revisions was long overdue and underlined that adoption of new language is a Council, not Mayoral, action and that striking the gag provision that prohibited public comment on litigation acknowledged there was never any legal justification. He felt the restraint on public speech for the last four years was an effort to deter criticism of the Council. Mr. Larson felt the Council norms of behavior were missing an item, and asked to add “Use of profanity, expletives or vulgar language at public meetings is offensive and unbecoming of an elected official.” Mr. Larson felt a community survey could be an imprecise measure of community attitudes, that non-respondent bias affects the outcome and the results do not represent the overall population but only the views of a resident subset. Survey preparation requires great care to design the sampling procedure that addresses self-selection bias of respondents and develop questions that are neutral, not leading. He thought today’s bench handout didn’t appear to address those issues for the validity of the results. He thought the Council should give careful consideration as to how it proceeds on the issue. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 2 2.RESPONSE TO PUBLIC INQUIRIES None 3.PRESENTATION ITEMS A.NYFS Overview Northeast Youth and Family Services (NYFS) President/CEO Angela Lewis-Dmello gave a presentation regarding NYFS, including a history of the organization, locations, the NYFS mission, client statistics, the state of youth mental health in Minnesota, mental health and community service programs offered by NYFS, and potential plans for the future. Councilmember Holden asked if they only serve people in certain communities and how they were different from the other non-profits in the area. Ms. Lewis-Dmello said they will serve anyone that comes to them but the majority of their clients come from the municipalities around them. She stated they are the only non-profit mental health agency in the 15 municipalities that they contract with. NYFS’ fee schedule slides down to $5.00 per session in order to reduce barriers to access. Mayor Grant said the New Brighton city administrator implied at the last mayors and manager’s meeting that there were all kinds of organizations similar to NYFS in the area. Ms. Lewis-Dmello said there is another organization that provides diversion services in St. Anthony, and a number of organizations in downtown St. Paul and downtown Minneapolis, but the nearest non-profit mental health agency is in Fridley, and there are a couple of for-profit organizations. Councilmember Fabel asked about medical insurance reimbursement. Ms. Lewis-Dmello stated they do receive third party billing through insurance for the psychotherapists and a child mental health psychiatrist, but it is hard to get reimbursed for the full cost, plus fringe and overhead. Individuals with a high deductible can choose to use the sliding fee scale. Insurance contracts alone don’t cover the costs of providing services so agencies subsidize their services through grants and additional funding. She noted the accelerated difficulty in the workforce with suppressed salaries in the industry. Councilmember Holden asked if the building was paid for and if there was anything on the third floor. Ms. Lewis-Dmello said there is one vacancy on the third floor. Councilmember Monson asked how they market themselves. Ms. Lewis-Dmello replied that rebranded and reworked their mission and vision statements, but they haven’t done a lot of marketing of their services. They are working on being connected in the ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 3 mental health industry and the communities that they serve. They have started doing some advertising in local newspapers and on social media. Councilmember Monson asked how they are helping with building resiliency and coping skills. Ms. Lewis-Dmello said that is integrated into all of their programs. In the day program it is scheduled into the curriculum, and in the therapy services they have a big impact in the school districts they work with. They have long term relationships in three school districts and are working on adding a fourth. Councilmember Rousseau asked if they knew the percentage of clients that were referred from the schools or through the criminal justice system. Ms. Lewis-Dmello said they haven’t had good tracking but they are revamping their demographic forms so they will have good data in about a year. Councilmember Fabel wondered if the diversion program takes kids that have actually been charged with crimes. Ms. Lewis-Dmello replied that they typically prefer to work with youth that are much earlier in the system, and they don’t take anyone with an active, open case. They average between 95-98% non-recidivism. They work with the youth and their families. Mayor Grant asked if they have someone come to them and the parents have insurance, is the clinical psychologist not covered? Ms. Lewis-Dmello said it is, by way of the contracts with the insurance companies and they will take insurance if someone wants to pay with insurance. The reimbursement they receive per session for each client and the total number of sessions seen by a therapist in a week multiplied by the year won’t cover the total cost of that therapist’s salary and benefits. There is a gap that needs to be filled with contracts, grants and individual donors. They currently have a $650,000 cash shortfall and are using their reserve and working on their business model and renegotiating insurance contracts. They hope to be in much better shape by the end of their fiscal year. Mayor Grant thanked Ms. Lewis-Dmello for her presentation. B.Council Retreat Discussion Mayor Grant stated it was his goal to look at some of the more strategic things that the Council wanted to accomplish such as long-term goal setting. City Administrator Perrault said they had considered using Mr. Weinstein’s firm in 2019 but the retreat didn’t move forward. He was there to talk about the process and take feedback from the Council. Timing and location would also need to be discussed. Ethical Leaders in Action (ELA) President Chad Weinstein introduced himself and gave a brief history of his background. He stated that he is an ethicist with a broad approach to help leaders be their best. Their approach is to begin with the end in mind; to create conversations ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 4 among elected officials and between elected officials and senior staff that lead to mutual understanding. Councilmember Holden asked if the retreat could be one day instead of 1.5 days. Mr. Weinstein said they could be flexible but that he had proposed 1.5 days in anticipation of the retreat being fairly intense. Mr. Weinstein continued to describe the process of the retreat, and explain the pre and post tasks and scope, including interviewing the Council and attending a staff meeting. Councilmember Rousseau stated the community wants the Council to work together, and she was OK with 1.5 days. Councilmember Holden was in favor of the retreat but didn’t want to discuss her personal life at the interviews, but only focus on the city. Mr. Weinstein said they would only be discussing values with respect to leading the city. They would have no icebreakers and no “kumbaya”. He noted some of the other cities and organizations that he has worked with. Councilmember Monson supported a 1.5 day retreat and adjusting as needed, and had no preference as to where it would be held. Mayor Grant felt it shouldn’t be at City Hall, but the Springhill Suites would be fine, or at the County. He thought they could potentially be done in one day. Councilmember Fabel expressed concerns about having breakout sessions and still being compliant with the open meeting laws. Mr. Weinstein stated that he’d never encountered an issue with that but he would be happy to check with the city attorney. Discussion ensued regarding the number of days and dates. It was tentatively decided a Saturday in May would work and staff would send a survey to confirm. C.Proposed Trails Discussion – Old Snelling Ave/Old Hwy 10 Trail (Lake Valentine Rd to Hwy 96) and Lake Johanna Blvd Trail (Cty Rd D to Old Snelling Ave) Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated there were two proposed trails that have had studies done and are ready to pursue grant and funding opportunities. The Old Snelling Ave/Old Highway 10 trail connects along Old Highway 10 from Lake Valentine Road to County Road 96. HR Green Updated a feasibility study in 2021. The Lake Johanna Boulevard trail runs between Old Snelling and County Rd D. Ramsey County is leading the concept design on that trail. The County is asking if the City would like to partner with them to pursue grant funding. The Metropolitan Council Regional Solicitation grant would be the most probable for both trails. Councilmember Holden asked if the Old Snelling trail was shovel ready. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 5 Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said it was not, the next step would be funding, which would lead into design, 95% plans would be considered shovel ready. The design estimate would usually be 12-15% of overall construction costs. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said Ramsey County’s next step for the Lake Johanna Boulevard trail would be to get a letter of concurrence from the City saying we would support them going after the Regional Solicitation funding, which would be submitted this fall. If they get awarded funding we would decide if the City wanted to go forward with design, with anticipated construction in 2028. Ramsey County would lead the funding effort for the Lake Johanna Boulevard trail, and the City would lead for the Old Snelling trail, with possible support from Ramsey County. Councilmember Rousseau asked if both proposals could go in at the same time with the possibility that they would both get grants. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said they could apply for both but he didn’t know if that would be looked at as a positive or negative. Councilmember Holden felt they would usually not give multiple grants. She suggested going with Old Highway 10 first, and they should also go to the legislature for bonding. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said at the State bonding level it is more appetizing to be shovel ready, but the feasibility studies provide enough information to go toward the Regional Solicitation grants. Councilmember Monson said people want trails and she thought they should strategically plan and have a financial approach. She wondered if they could find a bond to cover all of the funding for both trails. Mayor Grant asked if HR Green thought they could get 100% funding. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said they thought it was a possibility with the State bonding. Councilmember Holden discussed other things that people want and can’t look at bonding all by itself because there are other items like new water meters, the fire department building, sewer lining etc. so putting that in a bundle without looking at the whole picture is premature. Councilmember Fabel asked if either trail would be about a $2 million contribution from the City. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said the Lake Johanna Boulevard trail would be, but the Old Highway 10 trail could be 80% covered with 20% paid for by the City for approximately $500,000. Councilmember Fabel wondered which route was currently safer, and if Highway 10 had a good shoulder. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 6 Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said there is about a six to eight foot shoulder with a fog line. The shoulder is crumbling, but it will be freshly paved after this year. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated that if no funding was received on the Lake Johanna Boulevard trail, Ramsey County wouldn’t go forward with the project. Councilmember Monson felt the amount for Old Highway 10 is low. She wondered if the County didn’t get as much funding as they expect if the City still be committed to the remaining amount? Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said they could set an “up to” amount and he can discuss with Ramsey County. He noted that the Lake Johanna Trail is still in the concept design phase, and the numbers are more sound on the HR Green report for Old Snelling. Councilmember Fabel would like feedback from the PTRC to see what they feel is a higher priority. Councilmember Holden noted that a lot of students take Old Highway 10 to the high school, it has a higher speed limit and kids are driving and riding their bikes there, while Lake Johanna Boulevard has a lower speed limit. Councilmember Rousseau said the high school and college cross country teams run on Lake Johanna Boulevard so she is leaning toward that trail. Councilmember Holden said they jog on Old Highway 10 as well. Councilmember Monson thought they should pursue both trails with the Met Council and continue getting Old Highway 10 shovel ready. Mayor Grant asked if they want to get Old Highway 10 shovel ready, and they have until July 31 to make the decision about Lake Johanna. Councilmember Rousseau asked if there was a typical time that they would get an update from the Finance Director about the budget. City Administrator Perrault said they will get a quarterly budget year to date report, and they will start talking about the CIP in May or June with current year to date projections. Councilmember Holden suggested they also apply for Safe Routes to School grant. Councilmember Monson said she would support the Lake Johanna trail pending clarification from the County about how much money we are actually committing to, and would support getting final design on Old Snelling and trying for all funding options. Councilmember Holden wondered if the County is planning to submit a proposal for State bonding for the Lake Johanna trail. She also wondered if the PTRC was equally balanced as far as where they live in the city because they see different things depending on where they live. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 7 Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen stated that if they desire to go forward for the design for Old Highway 10 he would need to know if Council would like to go to RFP for the consultant or have staff direct select. It would add six to eight weeks to the timeline if they went out for RFP. After discussion, Council agree to let staff direct select a consultant for the Old Highway 10 trail. Mayor Grant directed staff to direct select and have the item on the second meeting in April, and to get clarification from Ramsey County on funding. D. Assisted Hearing Technology City Administrator Perrault stated that staff had worked with NineNorth and Electronic Design to review the Chambers and found there is a hum in the room that they cannot identify. NineNorth feels the hum would likely interfere with a T-Coil system and they are no longer recommending that system, but proposing to go with a Wi-Fi system. There would be Wi-Fi equipment in the Council Chambers and users would need to have an app on their phone that would connect to their hearing aid. Or if someone had a T-Coil hearing aid they could wear the neck loop and pick up the audio. The hip packs are also still available for use. The Wi-Fi system is just under $9,000 for the system, versus $25,000 for the T-Coil system. Councilmember Fabel thought it would make sense to have a few people try the options out before they decide. City Administrator Perrault there is concern with the app having to be downloaded onto phones, and someone having to figure out how to install it and connect it to their hearing aids. The technology probably won’t be widely available for about 10 years, and the people coming in to use assisted hearing technology will probably not have the app already on their phones. He felt the return on investment for Wi-Fi would be relatively low considering we already have the hip packs. Better signage could be made to make it more obvious that the hip packs are available. However, they are confident the hum would not be picked up on the Wi-Fi system. Councilmember Fabel said he could test what we currently have to see how well it works. He had a terrible hum when he put his hearing aid into T-Coil operation. Councilmember Rousseau felt it didn’t seem like a good solution and they shouldn’t move forward unless someone tried it out first. She thought we should keep the hip packs and make people more aware that they were available. Mayor Grant thought they should go forward and try to test it somewhere else. He felt they should have a solution beyond the hip pack. Councilmember Holden suggested larger signage for the hip packs until they figure out if anything else will work. Mayor Grant said they could have Councilmember Fabel turn on his T-Coil and they could turn off things in the Chambers until the hum stops. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 8 Councilmember Fabel said no option so far makes enough sense to spend the money on a different system. E. Climate Action Roadmap City Administrator Perrault said Council had requested that staff research what other cities were doing for Climate Change Action Plans or roadmaps. He reviewed what nearby cities were currently doing. He suggested an option could be to look at sustainable building policies as it is less intensive than a Climate Action Plan and could be done in-house. An element that was recently talked about at the Mayor/Administrator meeting was the idea of going to a single garbage hauler. Councilmember Rousseau stated that the PTRC was looking into the City’s history with the Green Steps program. Councilmember Holden felt we should probably be higher than Step 2 now but staff would have to write and submit the memos. Councilmember Rousseau said the Green Steps program and a Climate Action Plan should be coordinated to be efficient. Councilmember Monson asked if we had thought about getting an intern from Green Corps. City Administrator Perrault responded that we did have someone from Green Corps once. Councilmember Monson liked the idea of a sustainable building policies guide as it was the sort of thing they would want to put on the master development agreement with TCAAP. She felt you couldn’t control sustainability via zoning, so the real leverage would be to add it to the development agreement. Councilmember Holden said she would like to put this on hold until after the League of Minnesota Cities conference as they can have the opportunity to talk to people from other cities about what they are doing. Councilmember Monson said she had no problem with that. The reason she was asking for a roadmap is to decide where they’d like to focus. City Administrator Perrault thought the deadline for applying for a Green Corps intern may have passed. He said they were typically someone right out of school and a Climate Action Plan may be out of their skillset. As related to TCAAP, there are LEED requirements that could be put into place and the JDA could discuss those. Councilmember Holden thought they could do more by doing TCAAP separate from the rest of the city and put higher expectations on those homes. She felt if they found a good intern they could find the money to pay for it. Councilmember Monson suggested having someone to do research for the summer might be a good idea. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 9 Mayor Grant thought with the LMC meeting coming up and the Council goal setting in May it would line up fairly well time-wise. Councilmember Holden didn’t really see the importance of Green Steps as it was just something the League of Minnesota Cities put together and most people haven’t heard of it. F. Arden Hills Survey Discussion City Administrator Perrault stated that at the last Council meeting staff was directed to bring back a discussion about a possible survey of residents about a TCAAP or a city-wide survey. Staff recommends working with a professional company such as Morris Leatherman or Polco. He asked if the Council wanted staff to continue to research the idea, focus on TCAAP or city-wide, engage with a consultant or set a timeline. Councilmember Rousseau had provided a bench handout for their review. Councilmember Rousseau said a resident had spoken with her about making some data driven solutions around what the city valued and what residents were interested in. She thought it was something that could be done every couple of years and the Communications Coordinator could collect the data. They could have a small task force determine the questions. Councilmember Holden felt there should be a survey about TCAAP and another that was city- wide. She recommended using a professional service, and set the budget to conduct a survey every three to five years. Councilmember Rousseau thought it was challenging to have a survey show overall value for the community versus one person’s opinion. Mayor Grant agreed with having 2 surveys, one for TCAAP and a separate one for the city. The first survey could be their baseline, then a few years later they could look back at the survey to see if they’ve moved in the right direction. He felt the TCAAP survey would need a lot of explanation and models, but open houses can become self-selective and not statistically representative of the whole community. Councilmember Fabel thought surveys weren’t worthwhile, they cost a lot of money and you don’t get reliable information. He felt the best survey was the election. He anticipated having a series of public meetings regarding TCAAP and the same people that would likely respond to a survey would be the same people that would likely attend the meetings. Councilmember Holden said there were other questions that could be asked in a survey that you don’t get answers to from an election. Councilmember Monson asked when was the last time the City did a survey and what was the scope of that survey. Mayor Grant said it was 2016. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 10 City Administrator Perrault didn’t recall them doing a city-wide survey at that time, but he could check on it. Councilmember Monson said she was concerned about the money and time it would take to do a survey. She thought asking people to complete two surveys was a hurdle. Councilmember Rousseau said most of the work on the handout was done by resident Andrew Albano and she hoped the survey could be done internally by the Communications Coordinator next year. City Administrator Perrault said if they were going to do it internally he would like to give staff a long runway to organize it, so next year would be appropriate. Mayor Grant felt a survey had value for such things as parks and rec, snowplowing, other city services, etc. If you use the same survey over a period of time you can see trends. He asked if they would like to talk more about it at the Council retreat in May. Councilmember Rousseau said she would. 4. INFORMATION ITEMS AGENDA ITEMS A. Landscaping Maintenance – West of TH-10 Mayor Grant said Ramsey County would be replacing some dead plantings on Highway 10 west of Highway 96. They are supposed to maintain that section but haven’t done a good job. Could they agree that the County install the new plantings and the City maintain them. Council was in agreement. B. 2023 Public Works Maintenance Plan Councilmember Fabel wondered why there wasn’t anything about pickleball in the plan. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen explained that they have been actively switching courts over to add pickleball courts but the maintenance was crack sealing, repainting and restriping. Last year pickleball courts were added to Hazelnut and Freeway Parks, and they will be added to Floral and Arden Manor Parks this year. The revised matrix that is in the Parks and Rec guide shows pickleball at the respective parks. Councilmember Monson said there was an article in the Pioneer Press about climate change affecting how much snow we may be getting in the future and that cities may have to add more sand and salt to their budgets. Councilmember Holden asked if they could get a list of which parks/trails the PTRC has adopted and what they should look for so they report it to the city on a regular basis. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 11 Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said PTRC members have been asked to use the online request tracker (Report a Concern) to report issues. They have developed their own checklist to use when they go through the parks/trails. Councilmember Holden asked if staff had contacted MnDOT to see why they stopped cutting buckthorn on Highway 51 at the Arden Hills line. Public Works Director/City Engineer Swearingen said he had played phone tag with someone last year but he can re-engage the conversation. Councilmember Holden suggested they send a formal letter. Mayor Grant noted that the City will repair mailboxes if they are physically hit with a plow, not just an ice chunk hitting a mailbox. Councilmember Holden said she would like to have a professional do the crack sealing on the courts instead of staff. C. Tree Management Plan Discussion After discussion the Council agreed to the following: • Contract with Rainbow Tree Care to provide EAB treatment to City ash trees by injection and a discount to residents to treat existing ash trees on private property. • Contract with Rainbow Tree Care to provide EAB treatment to City ash trees by ground treatment. • Contract with Rainbow Tree Care to provide two-lined chestnut-borer treatment to City oak trees. • Add extra trees to the scope for Margolis Company, utilizing the remaining budget in the tree fund. Further discussion ensued regarding buddy trees being installed once there is additional money in the landscaping fund. D. Public Inquiry Language Update Council agreed to new language as shown in the memo: This is an opportunity for citizens to respectfully bring to the Council’s attention any items which are relevant to the City. In addressing the Council, you must first state your name and address for the record. Comments shall be limited to three (3) minutes or less. Written documents may be distributed to the Council prior to the start of the meeting to allow a more timely presentation. Council will generally not respond at the same meeting where an issue is initially raised by a member of the public but the Council may refer the issue to staff for further research and possible report or action at a future Council meeting. E. Council Norms of Behavior Discussion ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 12 Mayor Grant noted the norms of behavior from 2016 tended to be more staff oriented than Council oriented. Councilmember Rousseau thought they should consider acknowledging accomplishments of staff, committees and businesses. Councilmember Holden felt there could be a problem between businesses if some are acknowledged and others not. Mayor Grant said the League of Minnesota Cities offers a service on collaboration where they would bring in a facilitator who’s focus is to get councils to understand procedures and work together effectively. There would be no cost to have them come work with the Council. After a short discussion staff was directed to contact the League regarding Collaboration Services, potentially before the Council retreat. F. Removal of Deed Restrictions Mayor Grant stated we are a torrents state but some home deeds in Arden Hills have been found to have offensive language and racial covenants. Because there are a limited number of Arden Hills’ neighborhoods that have them, he suggested sending a letter to those property owners affected to let them know and that changing it is optional. City Administrator Perrault said some cities that have opted in with Just Deeds have passed a resolution, but he could work with them to facilitate how they could help the residents. Mayor Grant noted the areas that were affected and didn’t know if they wanted to alert the whole city as having been identified when there were so few. Councilmember Rousseau suggested putting it in the newsletter and following up with a letter. Councilmember Fabel agreed and thought they should pass a resolution. Councilmember Holden thought they should contact the people affected directly with a letter as we know the addresses. Mayor Grant suggested putting it on social media but not in the newsletter. Councilmember Fabel noted that since the fair housing act was passed this wording is of little legal consequence but some people will want to change it, and again suggested putting it in the newsletter. Mayor Grant said only about 5% of Arden Hills properties have been identified as having the language, and he would rather not alarm the rest of the city to think they need to look into it. Councilmember Fabel felt it was good for people to know about this as it relates to black history. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 13 Mayor Grant noted there could also be wording against Irish, Chinese, religious based etc, not just black people. Councilmember Rousseau thought they should make note in the newsletter that we’ve identified the issue in the community and we would be sending a letter to those impacted and how to address it. Councilmember Monson thought they could message it as an educational item and supported having it in the newsletter. It was decided there was no rush to publish the information and the new Communications Coordinator could write the article, followed up with a letter to residents. G. Arden Hills Resident Discount at Shoreview Community Center Councilmember Holden wondered how to approach Shoreview and what we have to barter with. Mayor Grant felt they question was are they using their facility to its capacity, and if they’re not would they give Arden Hills residents a bit of a discount. Councilmember Holden said many residents have said they would to there more often if there was a discount. Mayor Grant directed staff to ask Shoreview about discounting fees at the Community Center for Arden Hills residents. H. AUAR Update Mayor Grant said the update was due in 2024, the last update was in 2019 and not all of the sections were updated at that time. Cost for those updates was $10,000 and it took three to five months to complete. If they update earlier it starts a new trigger for five years. He noted that if they update the AUAR now and something goes forward with TCAAP, the AUAR would be out of phase and questioned if they’d have to redo it again. Councilmember Holden thought it should be fully updated so parts that weren’t updated last time were updated now. Councilmember Fabel said the reason they are making the request is so it enables them to do it cooperatively with the TCAAP process going forward. The AUAR presently says TCAAP can accommodate between 1,500 and 2,500 housing units. The Comprehensive Plan has a different number and the TCAAP code has a different number. So, if they looked at the issues in the AUAR it would give them more flexibility in the TCAAP planning. Councilmember Holden asked who was the “we” in this, when he talks about we she doesn’t know who he’s talking about. Councilmember Fabel stated it was the JDA Advisory Committee who thought it would be a good idea to have the AUAR done this year so they can make recommendations to the JDA ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 14 without having to say the AUAR didn’t address certain things such as Highway 96 and Lexington Avenue. Mayor Grant clarified that the first scenario relates to the City zoning and says 1,500 housing units or less. The second says what happens if you go to 1,501. When Council put in 2,500 it was never anticipated that was a number they would get to. City Administrator Perrault stated that Master Plan and planning guidelines came to about $500,000, and the AUAR portion cost $97,000. Councilmember Fabel felt there were some components of the AUAR that needed to be looked at and clarified to facilitate the planning process for TCAAP. Mayor Grant said the AUAR only looks at intersections going into or out of TCAAP. Councilmember Holden said it wouldn’t include Highway 96, that would be a whole different scope outside the AUAR system. Mayor Grant explained that traffic implications on a road like Hamline Avenue wouldn’t have been studied as part of the AUAR because the AUAR only looks at intersections going into and out of TCAAP. If they wanted to look at those impacts, that would be a whole new scope beyond the AUAR. Councilmember Fabel felt a study would have to be done to look at the traffic impact. City Administrator Perrault suggested that they ask for an option to look outside of TCAAP and if it can be addressed at the same time as the AUAR process. Councilmember Monson said she would love to have a traffic study done on Highway 96 but her question would be about funding – could the County pay for that because it’s their road? City Administrator Perrault stated the Community Development Director for Ramsey County has already said they could ask the Public Works Department to look at traffic scenarios along Highway 96 and with Lexington Avenue. Councilmember Monson said she supported moving the AUAR updates up to 2023. She would like to include a Highway 96 traffic study to go through the County in coordination with the AUAR. Councilmember Holden said it took four months to update the AUAR last time, she thought it would take six to eight months to update the entire AUAR. Councilmember Fabel said the idea is that the AUAR be updated at the same time as TCAAP planning is going forward. Councilmember Holden asked if they were going to feed them information as to how to update the AUAR based on the information they give them? ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 15 Councilmember Fabel said the City Council and the County would be working side by side. He thought they should open up the AUAR update process now so that as planning goes forward on TCAAP the activities and communication would be coordinated. Councilmember Holden stated that she heard him say that they are going to go through the planning process then give them information from the planning process to update the AUAR based on that. So her question was are they going to update the AUAR or is the JDA planning to submit information to them with which to update the AUAR from? Councilmember Fabel said the processes would be going on at the same time and many of the same people would be involved in both, City staff would be involved in both, the City’s representatives on the JDA and it would be ultimately approved by the City Council. They would be working side by side and beginning now so they could work on it as the JDA plan moves forward. Mayor Grant said Council needs to understand the City and the County don’t do the AUAR, it is done by a third party. Councilmember Fabel said the third party would be talking to staff. Mayor Grant felt Councilmember Holden was asking when they would start the process. Councilmember Holden stated they can’t start the AUAR and halfway through have the JDA say they want to add or change this or that. They’re either updating the AUAR or they’re not. The people updating the AUAR aren’t going to wait around for the JDA to decide what changes they’re going to make. Councilmember Fabel wanted to give staff the go ahead to get started. City Administrator Perrault stated there are two scenarios, the 1,500 is based on current city zoning code, the 2,500 is based on the maximum developable scenario. He would postulate that as the JDA moves forward they could work in tandem with Kimley Horn on the updates but if the updates aren’t exceeding the 2,500 scenario the inputs aren’t really changing and would still fall within the existing AUAR. Mayor Grant didn’t know what they would gain by starting early. His bigger concern was what if the acreage from commercial and residential changes? Then you have an AUAR that doesn’t match up with what you’re doing. They may still be within the development scenarios but the environmental impact would be different. There are elements within the AUAR that change depending on how much residential and commercial there is. Councilmember Fabel thought that maybe the AUAR needs to be adjusted to create more flexibility. Councilmember Monson wondered if Kimley Horn could give a proposal and explain the methods of updating an AUAR. Mayor Grant felt it was a strange way of updating the AUAR, but directed staff to contact Kimley Horn to discuss and get their advice. ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION – MARCH 20, 2023 16 I.Council Tracker Not discussed. 4.COUNCIL/STAFF COMMENTS Councilmember Holden said everyone should pick up their own water bottles and garbage when they leave the Council dais or table.

Background Investments - per the Investment Policy, our Benchmark Rate is the 4M plus Rate. At March 31, 2023 – this rate was 4.686% and our portfolio is averaging 2.55%. Our average rate will begin to increase as lower interest investments mature and we continue to invest in higher interest investments. 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. The first quarter financial results are generally as expected and mostly positive across all City funds. City revenue streams are on target with prior year and budget, and departments are for the most part under the 25% expended thus far in the year. General Fund – The main source of revenue for the City is property taxes and these come in twice a year. Expenditures are at 24.7% of budget through the end of the quarter, compared to 21.5% last year. Some of this difference is due to the timing of invoices. Other governmental funds and enterprise funds – Utility revenue for first quarter will be booked in April 2023 and annual transfers between funds will be booked later in the year. Page 2 of 2 Market value adjustments for investments total $171,100.49 through the end of the quarter. At the end of 2022, the City recognized a market value loss of $781,674.14. It is important to note that the City holds its investments to maturity and no principal is ever lost on an investment.

Budget Impact N/A Attachments N/A Page 1 of 8 CONSENT ITEM – 7F MEMORANDUM DATE: April 24, 2023 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Dave Perrault, City Administrator FROM: Jessica Jagoe, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Planning Case #23-005 – No Public Hearing Required Applicant: Delkor Systems, Inc. Property Location: 4300 Round Lake Road W and 1987 Gateway Boulevard Request: Sign Standard Adjustment (Site Plan Review) Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: N/A N/A N/A Council Should Consider Motion to approve, table, or deny the following • Adoption of Resolution 2023-019 for Planning Case 23-005 to allow a Sign Standard Adjustment through the Site Plan Review process for two properties located at 4300 Round Lake Road W and 1987 Gateway Boulevard (“Subject Properties”). Delkor Systems, Inc. (“The Applicant”) is seeking flexibility to install 60 square foot wall signage on the western elevations of two Delkor office buildings. Background 1. Overview of Request The Applicant has submitted a land use application for a Sign Standard Adjustment through the Site Plan Review process, seeking flexibility on the size wall signs at two Delkor office buildings. The Subject Properties are located in Sign District 7, which allows a wall sign with a maximum size of 45 square feet. The Applicant is proposing one (1) 60 square foot wall sign on the western elevation of each building. The Subject Properties are zoned GB, Gateway Business District and are guided as Light Industrial & Office on the Land Use Plan. Page 2 of 8 2. Planning Case Background At its January 17, 2023 meeting, the City Council considered a request for a Concept Plan Review for the proposed wall signs. At this meeting, the Council expressed general support for the requested flexibility in wall sign size. At this meeting, Planning Staff presented the City Council with a second option to amend the Sign Code. The City Council briefly discussed the undertaking of amending the sign ordinance. Given the Applicant’s desired timeline for sign installation, they are pursuing the application for Site Plan Review based on the Council’s feedback. The Applicant was recently approved for a Planned Unit Development Amendment at a third location they occupy at 4200 Round Lake Road. At their August 22, 2022 meeting, the City Council approved a request for wall signage with a 60-square-foot copy area on three elevations at the new Gateway building subject to sign standards under Sign District 6. The Applicant has indicated the proposed signage would be consistent and conform to the approvals at 4200 Round Lake Road. The Applicant is proposing 60 square foot signage that will match the wall signs at their 4200 Round Lake Road location. Planning Staff would add that the new construction of the Gateway Interstate building at 4200 Round Lake Road was approved on October 12, 2020 as part of a Planned Unit Development that included sign district flexibility. The sign flexibility that the Applicant is seeking under this proposal for the Subject Properties would be initiated through the Site Plan Review process. The review process type is different because the Subject Properties are existing buildings that are operating in accordance with city code requirements under the Gateway Business Zoning District as allowed without a Planned Unit Development. A Planned Unit Development is an overlay district utilized on land use reviews for residential and commercial subdivisions, new developments, or redevelopments that will function as one entity or may include flexibility to design standards. Not all properties in the City function as part of a Planned Unit Development. Rather there are historical uses (i.e. permitted use, conditional use, special use, legal nonconforming, etc.) that are allowed to continue until such time that there is a change in use or modification to the site or building that triggers an additional zoning/land use review. The Planning Commission reviewed this application at their April 5, 2023 meeting. During the meeting, the Planning Commission voted to propose an additional finding of fact that reads “the proposed signage would conform and unify the existing Delkor signage.” The motion carried unanimously (7-0). The Planning Commission also recommended approval with conditions of the application from Delkor for a Sign Standard Adjustment by a 7-0 vote. 3. Existing Site Conditions The Applicant leases the majority of both Subject Properties shown below. In the respective lease agreements for both buildings, the Applicant has the right to place signage on the western elevation. The Subject Properties are located in the Gateway Business Zoning District, which is part of Sign District 7. The Subject Properties are guided as Light Industrial and Office in the Page 3 of 8 2040 Land Use Plan. All surrounding properties are also located in the Gateway Business Zoning District, Sign District 7, and the Light Industrial and Office land use designation. Aerial Map of Subject Properties Sign District 7, applicable to Subject Properties, allows for wall signage with a maximum sign copy area of 45 square feet. Currently, a 45-square-foot “Delkor” sign is installed on the western elevation of the 4300 Round Lake Road building. No signs are currently installed on the western elevation of the 1987 Gateway Boulevard building. As additional background, the Gateway Business Zoning District was adopted in 1990. Properties that fall under this zoning district were rezoned from either I-1, Limited Industrial or R-2, Single and Two Family to Gateway Business. The GB Zoning District encompasses approximately 18 parcels south of Hwy 96 and west of Round Lake along Interstate 694 and Interstate 35W. Of those parcels, 10 are currently developed with commercial uses. Staff verified that two properties have received flexibility for signage as part of a PUD and two have legal nonconforming wall signage.

To implement that part of Arden Hills Comprehensive Development Plan known as the I-694/I-35W Plan. B. To promote high quality, unified, large-scale development in a manner similar to a planned unit development. C. To take full advantage of the site's location as documented and described in the NE I- 694/I-35W Plan. D. To allow only development that will create an attractive environment and a positive image for this site, which is one of the most visible in the community and represents the City's last major development site. E. To protect the site's environmental resources. F. To promote flexibility in land uses and development standards to achieve the objectives of the I-694/I-35W Plan. G. To allow development that will ensure reasonable traffic operation on the internal and surrounding transportation systems. 4. Site Data 2040 Future Land Use Plan: Light Industrial and Office Existing Land Use: Office and Light Manufacturing Zoning: Gateways Business District (GB) Lot Size (4300 Round Lake Road): 12.65 acres Lot Size (1987 Gateways Boulevard): 8.12 acres Approvals 1. Site Plan Review The Applicant is proposing to construct wall signage with a 60-square-foot sign copy area on the western elevation of both Subject Properties. To construct this size of signage, the Applicant is looking for flexibility from the City Code, Chapter 12 – Sign Code through the Site Plan Review process. Adjustments to the requirements and standards for the height, number, type, lighting, Page 5 of 8 area, and/or location of a sign or signs established by this Chapter may be approved with a Site Plan Review or a Planned Unit Development process as described for in Section 1320 and 1355 of the Zoning Code. Sign District 7, applicable to Subject Properties, allows for wall signage with a maximum sign copy area of 45 square feet. Currently, a 45-square-foot “Delkor” sign is installed on the western elevation of the 4300 Round Lake Road building. No signs are currently installed on the western elevation of the 1987 Gateway Boulevard building. Plan Evaluation Chapter 12, Sign Code Review 1. Sign Standards by Sign District – Section 1240.02 Both properties are located within the Gateway Business District and fall under Sign District 7. Sign District 7 includes all properties in the I-Flex, Gateway Business, or other commercial or industrial district without frontage on a designated roadway (i.e. County Road E or Lexington Avenue). Sign District 7 allows for wall signs with a sign copy area of no more than 45 square feet. The Applicant is proposing one (1) 60 square foot wall sign on the western elevation of both Subject Properties. The Applicant is requesting flexibility to allow an additional 15 square feet of wall signage to construct the proposed wall signs at each Subject Property. The proposed wall signs would be internally lit with LED-illuminated letter sets, as permitted in Sign District 7. The Applicant has noted that the proposed signage has been approved by the building owner as long as it conforms to city codes. Page 6 of 8 2. Sign Standard Adjustments – Section 1260.01 The Applicant requests flexibility on the size of the proposed wall signs. City Code Section 1260.01, Sign Standard Adjustments states “adjustments to the requirements and standards for the height, number, type, lighting, area, and/or location of a sign or signs established by this Chapter may be approved with a Site Plan Review or a Planned Unit Development process.” In order to approve an adjustment, the City Council will need to make a determination that the following criteria in the sign code has been satisfied: 1. Subd. 1 There are site conditions which require a sign adjustment to allow the sign to be reasonably visible from a street immediately adjacent to the site. According to the Applicant, a sign adjustment is requested to identify and orientate customers to Delkor’s buildings from nearby roadways. The current 45 sq-ft sign is quite small in relative size when compared to the size of the building and other district standards with interstate exposure. 2. Subd. 2 The sign adjustment will allow a sign of exceptional design or a style that will enhance the area or that is more consistent with the architecture and design of the site. According to the Applicant, the design of the new, all white sign is simple and elegant, complementing the colors and features of the buildings. As noted above and in the sign plan, the additional signs will be identical to those already installed on the new 4200 Round Lake Road building. 3. Subd. 3 The sign adjustment will not result in a sign that is inconsistent with the purpose of the zoning district in which the property is located or the current land use. According to the Applicant, the additional sign will enhance the purpose of the current land use by navigating visitors to the proper company locations. In addition, as set forth in subdivision 11, Purpose of Districts of the ‘City of Arden Hills, Zoning Code - Gateway Business District’ the tenants believe that the proposed signage is consistent with the purposes of: • “D. To allow only development that will create an attractive environment and a positive image for this site, which is one of the most visible in the community…” and • “G. To allow development that will insure reasonable traffic operation on the internal and surrounding transportation systems.” 3. 1355.04 Procedural Requirements for Specific Applications Section 1355.04, Subd. 5 of the Arden Hills Zoning Code states that a public hearing is not required for Site Plan Review, but neighboring property owners shall be notified. Notification was prepared in accordance with City policy. Page 7 of 8 Additional Review N/A Findings of Fact The Planning Commission reviewed this application at their April 5, 2023 meeting and have offered the following findings of fact for your consideration. During the meeting, the Planning Commission voted to propose Finding #9 as an additional finding of fact. The motion carried unanimously (7-0). 1. The Applicant has submitted an application for Site Plan Review to install 60 square foot wall signage on the western elevations of two Delkor office buildings at the subject properties, 4300 Round Lake Road W and 1987 Gateway Boulevard. 2. The Subject Properties are located in the Gateway Business District and are guided as Light Industrial & Office on the 2040 Land Use Plan. 3. Adjustments to the requirements and standards for the height, number, type, lighting, area, and/or location of a sign or signs established by this Chapter may be approved with a Site Plan Review or a Planned Unit Development process as described for in Section 1320 and 1355 of the Zoning Code. 4. Flexibility through the Site Plan Review process has been requested for the size of the proposed wall signs. 5. The proposed signage plan does not conflict with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Code or the Comprehensive Development Plan for the City. 6.

Kevin & Rick – I passed the sign package to our Project Manager and he asked this question: Do we think we can push them to a single panel background to minimize the number of penetrations into the building? The back panel could be painted to match the building color to blend in. Many buildings are trying to get away from single letter mounting to minimize penetrations. Delkor’s 4300 existing sign was approved as part of an Amendment so it’s somewhat grandfathered but I wanted to ask. It’s also less expensive to restore when the sign is removed but that’s a long ways out. I’ll wait to hear from you and it it’s not a viable option, I’ll continue with the package approval.

Hi Kevin – I believe the current Delkor sign on the west elevation of 4300 Round Lake, is red, black & white, as shown on Exhibit B of the attached Third Amendment. That signage was approved as part of the amendment and the signage on the 1987 Gateway building, although still needs approval, should be the same as 4300 Round Lake. The sign package that you sent yesterday, shows the two signs as white only so I wanted to connect with you about that. Did you mean both to be only white?

From Application Form. In light of the city’s recommendation for a variance, as set forth during the January 17th, 2023 working session (Concept Plan Review)—request is to install 60 sq-ft signage on western elevation of two (2) Delkor buildings. Current sign standards specify 45 sq-ft total for District 7 & 60 sq-ft for District 6. The new Gateway building at 4200 Round Lake Rd. W. (also occupied by Delkor) was approved for 60 sq-ft. The same consideration is requested for the identified buildings. Update from Concept Plan Review. Delkor presented the information below along with a comprehensive summary by Jessica Jagoe during the City Council Work Session on January 17, 2023. It is Delkor’s understanding from this session that a variance is recommended by the City in order to accommodate our request. Delkor wishes to honor the cities recommendations and proceed as soon as possible. The following is identical to the Concept Review Document—submitted for 01.16.2023 review Current State. Referencing the image below—As of August 2022, Delkor leases the majority of both buildings (i) 4300 Round Lake Road and (ii) 1987 Gateway Boulevard. Delkor secured the western elevation signage rights for both buildings in each respective lease agreement. A 45 sq- ft “Delkor” sign was installed in 2020 in the location “1A” (below) on the 4300 Round Lake Road building. The design of the sign is the Delkor logo in opposing red and black colors. No signs are currently installed on the western elevation of the 1987 Gateway building. “1B” in the location below would be the proposed location for an additional sign. 2023 LAND USE APPLICATION: Planned Unit Development, 02/27/2023 Delkor Systems, Inc. Delkor also leases space in the recently constructed 4200 Round Lake Road building. Working with the city of Arden Hills and Scannell for approvals, Delkor installed two (2) 60 sq-ft signs on the south and south-western elevations of the building in 2022. A picture of the South elevation sign is shown (at right). The signs are all white and backlight illuminated with soft LED diffusion. New Signs. In light of the recent approvals for 60 sq-ft signs on the 4200 Round Lake Road building, Delkor proposes to convert and add signage on (a) 4300 Round Lake Road and (b) 1987 Gateway Boulevard to the same. More specifically, pending Arden Hills approval Delkor proposes to: (a) Replace the existing sign on 4300 Round Lake Road with a larger, all white version—mirroring the 60 sq-ft sign on the new building at 4200 Round Lake Road. (b) Install the same sign on 1987 Gateway Blvd. For more detail, attached is a plan from Spectrum Signs, proposal #220529 Delkor Systems Sign Plan - Arden Hills (enclosed). 2023 LAND USE APPLICATION: Planned Unit Development, 02/27/2023 Delkor Systems, Inc. Section 1260.01. The sign ordinance requires that, “In order to approve any sign standard adjustment, the following criteria of Subd. 1 or Subd. 2 shall be satisfied, and the necessary criteria of Subd. 3 shall be satisfied: • Subd. 1 There are site conditions which require a sign adjustment to allow the sign to be reasonably visible from a street immediately adjacent to the site; • Subd. 2 The sign adjustment will allow a sign of exceptional design or a style that will enhance the area or that is more consistent with the architecture and design of the site; • Subd. 3 The sign adjustment will not result in a sign that is inconsistent with the purpose of the zoning district in which the property is located or the current land use.” Addressing Subd. 1 and 2, and similar to the conditions applying to the 4200 Round Lake Rd. building, a sign adjustment is requested to identify and orientate customers to Delkor’s buildings from nearby roadways. The current 45 sq-ft sign is quite small in relative size when compared to the size of the building and other district standards with interstate exposure. In addition, the design of the new, all white sign is simple and elegant complimenting the colors and features of the buildings. As noted above and in the sign plan, the additional signs will be identical to those already installed on the new 4200 Round Lake Road building. For additional design details, please reference the proposal #220529 Delkor Systems Sign Plan - Arden Hills (enclosed). Addressing Subd. 3, Delkor believes that the additional sign will enhance the purpose of the current land use by navigating visitors to the proper company location s. In addition, as set forth in section 11.GB of the ‘City of Arden Hills – 2040 Comprehensive Plan, Gateway Business District (AHC)’ the tenants believe that the proposed signage is consistent with the purposes of: • “D. To allow only development that will create an attractive environment and a positive image for this site, which is one of the most visible in the community…” and • “G. To allow development that will insure reasonable traffic operation on the internal and surrounding transportation systems” 2023 LAND USE APPLICATION: Planned Unit Development, 02/27/2023 Delkor Systems, Inc. Signage Plan & Consideration. Delkor is seeking flexibility or code revisions as set forth above and in the attached proposal #220529 Delkor Systems Sign Plan created by Spectrum Sign Systems.

Page 1 of 8 PC Agenda Item – 3B MEMORANDUM DATE: April 5, 2023 TO: Planning Commission Chair and Commissioners FROM: Jessica Jagoe, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Planning Case #23-005 – No Public Hearing Required Applicant: Delkor Systems, Inc. Property Location: 4300 Round Lake Road W and 1987 Gateway Boulevard Request: Sign Standard Adjustment (Site Plan Review) Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: N/A N/A N/A Requested Action Delkor Systems, Inc. (“The Applicant”) has submitted a land use application for Sign Standard Adjustment through the Site Plan Review process for two properties located at 4300 Round Lake Road W and 1987 Gateway Boulevard (“Subject Properties”). The Applicant is seeking flexibility to install 60 square foot wall signage on the western elevations of two Delkor office buildings. The two buildings are located in Sign District 7, which allows wall signs with a maximum size of 45 square feet. The Subject Properties are zoned GB, Gateway Business District and are guided as Light Industrial & Office on the Land Use Plan. Background 1. Overview of Request The Applicant has submitted a land use application for a Site Plan Review, seeking flexibility on the size wall signs at two Delkor office buildings. The two buildings are located in Sign District 7, which allows a wall sign with a maximum size of 45 square feet. The Applicant is proposing one (1) 60 square foot wall sign on the western elevation of each building. 2. Planning Case Background At its January 17, 2023 meeting, the City Council considered a request for a Concept Plan Review for the proposed wall signs. At this meeting, the Council expressed general support for Page 2 of 8 the requested flexibility in wall sign size. At this meeting, Planning Staff presented the City Council with a second option to amend the Sign Code. The City Council briefly discussed the undertaking of amending the sign ordinance. Given the Applicant’s desired timeline for sign installation, they are pursuing the application for Site Plan Review based on the Council’s feedback. The Applicant was recently approved for a Planned Unit Development Amendment at a third location they occupy at 4200 Round Lake Road. At their August 22, 2022 meeting, the City Council approved a request for wall signage with a 60-square-foot copy area on three elevations at the new Gateway building subject to sign standards under Sign District 6. The Applicant has indicated the proposed signage would be consistent and conform to the approvals at 4200 Round Lake Road. The Applicant is proposing 60 square foot signage that will match the wall signs at their 4200 Round Lake Road location. Planning Staff would add that the new construction of the Gateway Interstate building at 4200 Round Lake Road was approved on October 12, 2020 as part of a Planned Unit Development that included sign district flexibility. The sign flexibility that the Applicant is seeking under this proposal for the Subject Properties would be initiated through the Site Plan Review process. The review process type is different because the Subject Properties are existing buildings that are operating in accordance with city code requirements under the Gateway Business Zoning District as allowed without a Planned Unit Development. A Planned Unit Development is an overlay district utilized on land use reviews for residential and commercial subdivisions, new developments, or redevelopments that will function as one entity or may include flexibility to design standards. Not all properties in the City function as part of a Planned Unit Development. Rather there are historical uses (i.e. permitted use, conditional use, special use, legal nonconforming, etc.) that are allowed to continue until such time that there is a change in use or modification to the site or building that triggers an additional zoning/land use review. 3. Site Data Future Land Use Plan: Light Industrial and Office Existing Land Use: Office and Light Manufacturing Zoning: Gateway Business District (GB) Size (4300 Round Lake Road): 12.65 Acres Size (1987 Gateway Boulevard): 8.12 Acres 4. Existing Conditions The Applicant leases the majority of both Subject Properties shown below. In the respective lease agreements for both buildings, the Applicant has the right to place signage on the western elevation. The Subject Properties are located in the Gateway Business Zoning District, which is part of Sign District 7. The Subject Properties are guided as Light Industrial and Office in the 2040 Land Use Plan. All surrounding properties are also located in the Gateway Business Zoning District, Sign District 7, and the Light Industrial and Office land use designation. Page 3 of 8 Aerial Map of Subject Properties Sign District 7, applicable to Subject Properties, allows for wall signage with a maximum sign copy area of 45 square feet. Currently, a 45-square-foot “Delkor” sign is installed on the western elevation of the 4300 Round Lake Road building. No signs are currently installed on the western elevation of the 1987 Gateway Boulevard building. As additional background, the Gateway Business Zoning District was adopted in 1990. Properties that fall under this zoning district were rezoned from either I-1, Limited Industrial or R-2, Single and Two Family to Gateway Business. The GB Zoning District encompasses approximately 18 parcels south of Hwy 96 and west of Round Lake along Interstate 694 and Interstate 35W. Of those parcels, 10 are currently developed with commercial uses. Staff verified that two properties have received flexibility for signage as part of a PUD and two have legal nonconforming wall signage.

To implement that part of Arden Hills Comprehensive Development Plan known as the I- 694/I-35W Plan. B. To promote high quality, unified, large-scale development in a manner similar to a planned unit development. C. To take full advantage of the site's location as documented and described in the NE I- 694/I-35W Plan. D. To allow only development that will create an attractive environment and a positive image for this site, which is one of the most visible in the community and represents the City's last major development site. E. To protect the site's environmental resources. F. To promote flexibility in land uses and development standards to achieve the objectives of the I-694/I-35W Plan. G. To allow development that will ensure reasonable traffic operation on the internal and surrounding transportation systems. Approvals 1. Site Plan Review The Applicant is proposing to construct wall signage with a 60-square-foot sign copy area on the western elevation of both Subject Properties. To construct this size of signage, the Applicant is looking for flexibility from the City Code, Chapter 12 – Sign Code through the Site Plan Review process. Adjustments to the requirements and standards for the height, number, type, lighting, area, and/or location of a sign or signs established by this Chapter may be approved with a Site Plan Review or a Planned Unit Development process as described for in Section 1320 and 1355 of the Zoning Code. Sign District 7, applicable to Subject Properties, allows for wall signage with a maximum sign copy area of 45 square feet. Currently, a 45-square-foot “Delkor” sign is installed on the western elevation of the 4300 Round Lake Road building. No signs are currently installed on the western elevation of the 1987 Gateway Boulevard building. Page 5 of 8 Plan Evaluation Chapter 12, Sign Code Review 1. Sign Standards by Sign District – Section 1240.02 Both properties are located within the Gateway Business District and fall under Sign District 7. Sign District 7 includes all properties in the I-Flex, Gateway Business, or other commercial or industrial district without frontage on a designated roadway (i.e. County Road E or Lexington Avenue). Sign District 7 allows for wall signs with a sign copy area of no more than 45 square feet. The Applicant is proposing one (1) 60 square foot wall sign on the western elevation of both Subject Properties. The Applicant is requesting flexibility to allow an additional 15 square feet of wall signage to construct the proposed wall signs at each Subject Property. The proposed wall signs would be internally lit with LED-illuminated letter sets, as permitted in Sign District 7. The Applicant has noted that the proposed signage has been approved by the building owner as long as it conforms to city codes. 2. Sign Standard Adjustments – Section 1260.01 Page 6 of 8 The Applicant requests flexibility on the size of the proposed wall signs. City Code Section 1260.01, Sign Standard Adjustments states “adjustments to the requirements and standards for the height, number, type, lighting, area, and/or location of a sign or signs established by this Chapter may be approved with a Site Plan Review or a Planned Unit Development process.” In order to approve an adjustment, the Planning Commission will need to make a determination that the following criteria in the sign code has been satisfied: 1. Subd. 1 There are site conditions which require a sign adjustment to allow the sign to be reasonably visible from a street immediately adjacent to the site. According to the Applicant, a sign adjustment is requested to identify and orientate customers to Delkor’s buildings from nearby roadways. The current 45 sq-ft sign is quite small in relative size when compared to the size of the building and other district standards with interstate exposure. 2. Subd. 2 The sign adjustment will allow a sign of exceptional design or a style that will enhance the area or that is more consistent with the architecture and design of the site. According to the Applicant, the design of the new, all white sign is simple and elegant, complementing the colors and features of the buildings. As noted above and in the sign plan, the additional signs will be identical to those already installed on the new 4200 Round Lake Road building. 3. Subd. 3 The sign adjustment will not result in a sign that is inconsistent with the purpose of the zoning district in which the property is located or the current land use. According to the Applicant, the additional sign will enhance the purpose of the current land use by navigating visitors to the proper company locations. In addition, as set forth in section 11.GB of the ‘City of Arden Hills – 2040 Comprehensive Plan, Gateway Business District (AHC)’ the tenants believe that the proposed signage is consistent with the purposes of: • “D. To allow only development that will create an attractive environment and a positive image for this site, which is one of the most visible in the community…” and • “G. To allow development that will insure reasonable traffic operation on the internal and surrounding transportation systems.” 1355.04 Procedural Requirements for Specific Applications Section 1355.04, Subd. 5 of the Arden Hills Zoning Code states that a public hearing is not required for Site Plan Review, but neighboring property owners shall be notified. Notification was prepared in accordance with City policy. Additional Review N/A Page 7 of 8 Findings of Fact The Planning Commission must make a finding as to whether or not the proposed application would adversely affect the surrounding neighborhood, or the community as a whole based on the aforementioned factors. City Staff offers the following findings for consideration: 1.

The motion carried unanimously (7-0). B. Planning Case 23-005; 4300 Round Lake Road W and 1987 Gateway Boulevard – Site Plan Review – Public Hearing Not Required Community Development Director Jagoe stated the Applicant has submitted a land use application for a Site Plan Review, seeking flexibility on the size wall signs at two Delkor office buildings. The two buildings are located in Sign District 7, which allows a wall sign with a maximum size of 45 square feet. The Applicant is proposing one (1) 60 square foot wall sign on the western elevation of each building. Community Development Director Jagoe explained at its January 17, 2023 meeting, the City Council considered a request for a Concept Plan Review for the proposed wall signs. At this meeting, the Council expressed general support for the requested flexibility in wall sign size. At this meeting, Planning Staff presented the City Council with a second option to amend the Sign Code. The City Council briefly discussed the undertaking of amending the sign ordinance. Given the Applicant’s desired timeline for sign installation, they are pursuing the application for Site Plan Review based on the Council’s feedback. Community Development Director Jagoe reported the Applicant was recently approved for a Planned Unit Development Amendment at a third location they occupy at 4200 Round Lake Road. At their August 22, 2022 meeting, the City Council approved a request for wall signage with a 60-square-foot copy area on three elevations at the new Gateway building subject to sign standards under Sign District 6. The Applicant has indicated the proposed signage would be consistent and conform to the approvals at 4200 Round Lake Road. Community Development Director Jagoe indicated the Applicant is proposing 60 square foot signage that will match the wall signs at their 4200 Round Lake Road location. Planning Staff would add that the new construction of the Gateway Interstate building at 4200 Round Lake Road was approved on October 12, 2020 as part of a Planned Unit Development that included sign district flexibility. The sign flexibility that the Applicant is seeking under this proposal for the Subject Properties would be initiated through the Site Plan Review process. The review process type is different because the Subject Properties are existing buildings that are operating in accordance with city code requirements under the Gateway Business Zoning District as allowed without a Planned Unit Development. A Planned Unit Development is an overlay district DRAFT ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION – April 5, 2023 8 utilized on land use reviews for residential and commercial subdivisions, new developments, or redevelopments that will function as one entity or may include flexibility to design standards. Not all properties in the City function as part of a Planned Unit Development. Rather there are historical uses (i.e. permitted use, conditional use, special use, legal nonconforming, etc.) that are allowed to continue until such time that there is a change in use or modification to the site or building that triggers an additional zoning/land use review. Community Development Director Jagoe reviewed the site data, surrounding area, the Plan Evaluation and provided the Findings of Fact for review: 1. The Applicant has submitted an application for Site Plan Review to install 60 square foot wall signage on the western elevations of two Delkor office buildings at the subject properties, 4300 Round Lake Road W and 1987 Gateway Boulevard. 2. The Subject Properties are located in the Gateway Business District and are guided as Light Industrial & Office on the 2040 Land Use Plan. 3. Adjustments to the requirements and standards for the height, number, type, lighting, area, and/or location of a sign or signs established by this Chapter may be approved with a Site Plan Review or a Planned Unit Development process as described for in Section 1320 and 1355 of the Zoning Code. 4. Flexibility through the Site Plan Review process has been requested for the size of the proposed wall signs. 5. The proposed signage plan does not conflict with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Code or the Comprehensive Development Plan for the City. 6. The application is not anticipated to create a negative impact on the immediate area or the community as a whole. 7. The proposed plan will not produce any permanent noise, odors, vibration, smoke, dust, air pollution, heat, liquid, or solid waste, and other nuisance characteristics. 8. A public hearing is not required for Site Plan Review. Community Development Director Jagoe reviewed the options available for Planning Case 23- 005 to the Planning Commission on this matter: 1. Recommend Approval with Conditions 1. That the project shall be completed in accordance with the plans submitted. Any significant changes to these plans, as determined by the Community Development Director, shall require review and approval by the Planning Commission and City Council. 2. A separate sign permit shall be required for all proposed signage. 3. All signage shall meet all other requirements of Sign District 7. 2. Recommend Approval as Submitted 3. Recommend Denial 4. Table Chair Vijums opened the floor to Commissioner comments. DRAFT ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION – April 5, 2023 9 Chair Vijums asked if the City was proposing to change the recommended sign sizes or dimensions, or would variances be considered over time. Community Development Director Jagoe described the process that was laid out for the applicant noting a Site Plan Review was before the Planning Commission at this time and not an Ordinance Amendment for the sign code. Chair Vijums questioned if the proposed sign was 60 square feet in size. Kevin Weiss, 4300 Round Lake Road West, reported both signs would be 60 square feet in size, which was identical to the signs at 4200 Round Lake Road. Community Development Director Jagoe explained the signs at 4200 Round Lake Road were approved as part of the Gateway Interstate Building. Commissioner Bjorklund stated he liked that the new sign size would allow the property to be seen from the freeway and would create unification. He indicated he would like to see the site having identification signs installed on the site. Mr. Weiss commented site would have directional signs on the building. Commissioner Wicklund explained he believed the criteria for the sign code has been satisfied and for this reason he would be supporting the request. Chair Vijums stated because similar signage was approved for an adjacent building, he would be supporting this request. Community Development Director Jagoe commented further on how the proposed signage would be consistent between the Delkor buildings. Commissioner Bjorklund recommended a finding be stated to this effect. Chair Vijums suggested this finding read: the proposed signage would conform and unify the existing Delkor signage. Commissioner Bjorklund moved and Commissioner Weber seconded a motion for Findings of Fact Item 9 to read: The proposed signage would conform and unify the existing Del kor signage. The motion carried unanimously (7-0). Commissioner Wicklund moved and Commissioner Collins seconded a motion to recommend approval of Planning Case 23-005 for a Site Plan review at 4300 Round lake Road W and 1987 Gateway Boulevard based on the findings of fact as amended and the submitted plans, as amended by the conditions in the April 5, 2023, report to the Planning Commission.

A zoning code amendment to City Code Chapter 13 – Zoning Code of Arden Hills City Code is required to add language to define and allow for the proposed outdoor recreational activity as an accessory use within the B-2, General Business. The City Council will be asked to make a formal decision regarding the application under Agenda Item 10A. Background 1. Overview of Request The Applicant is applying for Site Plan Review for evaluation of the site layout and parking modifications that are being proposed to expand the existing outdoor patio area. The patio expansion will include additional dining tables, pergolas, a lounge area with fireplace, and a commercial recreation area for cornhole leagues. In order to construct the patio expansion, the Applicant would need to remove five parking spaces in front of the building. Two of those spaces are accessible parking spaces that will be relocated near the patio within the existing Page 2 of 8 parking lot. A Site Plan Review is required in any Business, Industrial, or Multiple Family Zoning District when there is the reorganization of parking, drives, and entrances. As part of the application, the Applicant is also requesting a zoning code amendment to allow for commercial recreational use to be conducted outdoors in the B-2 Zoning District. Currently, the city code limits any commercial recreational activity to be conducted within an enclosed building (i.e. indoors). The Applicant is proposing that the allowance for a commercial recreation – outdoor would be limited to being an accessory use only when conducted in conjunction with a commercial recreation – indoor land use. Additionally, their narrative notes that restrictions could be included in the amended ordinance language such as capping the evening hours for which the outdoor recreational activity would be allowed (i.e. 10 PM) or no high voltage lighting (i.e. flood lights). The Subject Property is approximately 1.5 acres. The bowling alley also features a full service restaurant/party room and an arcade. In addition to the Subject Property, the Applicant owns two other parcels in the immediate area (i.e. east and north) along Connelly Avenue that are utilized for overflow off-street parking for the bowling alley. Neither of these parcels have a structure, parking lot only. Ramsey County Aerial Map Page 3 of 8 2.

General Requirements - Sections 1325.05 and 1325.06 A. Off- Street Parking – Meets Requirements The Site Plan Review process is triggered for this application due to the reorganization of parking, drives, and entrances. The Applicant is proposing to remove five (5) parking spaces in front of the building to the expanded outdoor patio and add artificial turf for the commercial recreation area. Two (2) of those off-street parking spaces are accessible parking spaces. The Applicant intends to move and relabel two (2) other existing spaces immediately adjacent to the building so there is no reduction in the number of accessible parking spaces on the site. For the Site Plan Review, the Subject Property has 40 outdoor dining seats and is proposing to add 16 – 20 additional outdoor dining seats. Per City Code, restaurant uses must provide one (1) parking space for every two (2) seats and a bowling alley must provide five (5) for each lane. Currently, the Applicant has a total of 286 off-street parking spaces between the three (3) parking lots. Under the new site plan, the Subject Propert y would have 281 off-street parking spaces. Land Use Parking Requirement Flaherty’s Required # of Parking Spaces Total Required Bowling Alley 5 for each lane plus related uses 36 lanes 180 277.5 Restaurant 1 for every 2 seat 135 indoor seats 60 outdoor seats (includes proposed expanded seating) 97.5 Page 4 of 8 B. Impervious Surface – Meets Requirements The B-2 Zoning District allows impervious surface coverage up to 80% of the site. The Applicant included in their application a breakdown of permeable and impervious surfaces for the project area. The current concrete patio will remain as is. The expanded patio area would square off the existing patio in front of the building and remove approximately 1,354 square feet of green space (i.e. grass). There are no trees to be removed as part of this project. The proposed artificial turf area for the commercial recreation outdoor space would be installed immediately adjacent to the existing patio area with a permeable base material. This area is currently a paved portion of the parking lot. The permeable surface area added as a result of the proposed project is 1,357 square feet. Therefore, the impervious surface coverage that exists today remains the same. C. Design Standards for Existing Sites B2 District – Meets Requirements In March 2008, the City completed a visioning and planning process for the B-2 District, which generally includes the properties near County Road E between Lexington Avenue and Hamline Avenue/Highway 51. The “Guiding Plan for the B-2 District” includes a long-term vision for the future redevelopment of this corridor and addresses transportation issues, land uses, infrastructure improvements, landscaping, pedestrian facilities, building design, and site layout among other issues. To implement these goals, the City adopted Section 1325.05, Subd. 8 which applies to New Development, Redevelopment, and Modifications in the B2 and B3 Districts for review of architecture, landscaping, and site design. In this application, the Applicant is not proposing any changes to the existing building. The Site Plan Review pertains to the site design elements of the outdoor patio and commercial recreation area. 1. Fences - In the B2 District, fences shall blend into the landscape using finished materials of either wood, brick, stone or wrought iron. a. The Applicant is proposing the perimeter of these outdoor areas would be combination of a three (3) foot-tall aluminum decorative fence with gates and a 34” tall block retaining wall. 2. Site furnishings and seating areas – These features are encouraged and may include tables, chairs, benches, plantings, and other outdoor amenities such as a plaza. These areas shall be maintained for year-round use. Creativity is highly encouraged. These spaces shall be connected to the sidewalk system. Benches and decorative plantings shall be provided near the primary entrance of all buildings on a site. a. The Applicant is proposing to expand the outdoor patio with the addition of four (4) to six (6) tables. The patio area will have an outdoor lounge area with a fireplace. Three (3) pergolas are shown in the design with one space featuring a waterfall feature. Greenery will be added such as vines coming down the walls, planters in front of the fencing, hanging ferns, and other potted plants hanging from the arbors. A paver walkway will be added, connecting the patio area to the existing sidewalk along County Road E. Lastly, there will be bike racks added adjacent to this walkway. 3. Pedestrian and Bicycle Circulation – Site designs in the B2 District shall facilitate pedestrian connections and mobility within and between buildings, sites, and uses by Page 5 of 8 providing clear visual indicators through door placement, signage, striping, raised pathways, and integrating landscaping components. An internal sidewalk system shall link the primary entrance of each building on site with the public sidewalk or trail network. a. The Applicant is proposing to add a walkway to the existing sidewalk along County Road E. The Public Works Director/City Engineer commented that the sidewalk connection is approved as long as Ramsey County has no issues. Planning staff did forward the application to Ramsey Count y for review and they had no additional comments or concerns. It was noted that if there is a need in the future for the City or County to remove any portion of the proposed walkway shown within the easement, this would be done without replacement. 4. Bicycle Parking – The city code states bicycle parking shall be located in a safe, designated area and should be within 50 feet of the primary building entrance. Bicycle racks shall be visible either from within the building or the public right-of-way. For commercial uses, one (1) bicycle parking space shall be provided for every 20 automobile parking spaces. A minimum of two (2) parking spaces is required. a. The Applicant has stated in their application that they are intending to add bicycle racks as part of this project, but it is not stated how many spaces would be provided. Based on the number of post outdoor patio remodel off-street parking spaces, the Subject Property would be required to install 14 bicycle parking spaces. Zoning Code Text Amendments The purpose of the B-2 General Business District is to: x Be a place in which people can live, work and play. x Create a compact, architecturally diverse, pedestrian- and bicycle-friendly community with a distinct identity. x Provide a connected sidewalk system and places for people to gather and socialize. To implement design standards to promote an attractive environment with lasting and sustainable value. x Group compatible retail and service business uses that tend to draw trade that is naturally interchangeable and promotes business prosperity. x Provide an adequate supply of businesses and professional service areas to meet the needs of the residents. x Minimize the effects of traffic congestion, noise, odor, glare and similar safety problems. According to the Applicant, the proposed ordinance amendment will enhance the recreation activities within the community to all ages. Their narrative states that a bowling alley is primarily a winter recreational activity. The requested ordinance amendment will help their business increase the customer visits to include the spring and summer months. Currently the city code is absent of land use language permitting any type of commercial recreation activity outside of the building in any of the zoning districts. To allow this land use, the City’s Zoning Code would need to be amended to add a definition for Commercial Recreation – Outdoor and to designate this type of land use as an accessory use in the B-2 General Business District. Staff has prepared text amendments based on the Applicant’s narrative as well as a few other text Page 6 of 8 amendment considerations for “Commercial Recreation - Outdoor” language within Sections 1305.04 Definitions, 1320.04 Purpose of Districts, 1320.05 Land Use Chart and 1325.02 Accessory Uses. Applicant’s Narrative: 1) Add a definition for Commercial Recreation – Outdoor - Section 1305.04 Definitions a. Commercial Recreation – Outdoor: An accessory commercial recreational use conducted outdoor including but not limited to horseshoes, bocce ball, or cornhole. 2) The Land Use Chart within Section 1320.05 would be amended to include Commercial Recreation - Outdoor: a. Add a land use category for Commercial Recreation – Outdoor as an Accessory Use under the B-2 Zoning District. Additional Code Amendments to consider as recommended by the Planning Commission: 3) Amend Section 1325.02, Accessory Uses a. Create a new Subdivision 5 that establishes the requirements and criteria for an administrative permit for Commercial Recreation – Outdoor as an accessory use on a property where the principal use is Commercial Recreation - Indoor. Proposed language: A. Commercial Recreation - Outdoor shall only be permitted as an accessory use on a property where the principal use is Commercial Recreation - Indoor. A B. Commercial Recreation – Outdoor shall only be permitted in the B-2 General Business District. B. C. An Administrative Permit shall be required from the Community Development Department to allow outdoor recreational activities. The Community Development Department shall review a site plan and specifics of the proposed outdoor recreation area and may issue the permit, subject to, but not limited to, the following requirements: 1.

Additional Review Building Inspector The Building Inspector has reviewed the plans and has no additional comments at this time. A building permit will be required for the pergolas shown on the site plan. The retaining walls, since under 4 feet, will require a zoning permit prior to installation. Ramsey County Ramsey County has reviewed the plans and has no additional comments at this time. Fire Marshal The Fire Marshal has reviewed the plans. He has requested there be two outward swinging gates. The gates could be self-latching. If the gates lock for the outside, the Fire Marshal would require some type of panic hardware to allow the gates to open to allow egress. Public Works Director/City Engineer The Public Works Director/City Engineer has reviewed the plans and has the following comments: x It appears the land disturbance area does not trigger the need for a Grading and Erosion Control permit but the Public Works Department will need to see the final erosion control plans to make sure there is perimeter control planned. x No Right-of-Way permit needed with the City. x Right-of-Way permit likely needed with the County. Applicant shall provide verification if a permit is issued or not prior to commencement of project. x The sidewalk connection is approved as long as Ramsey County has no issues with it as well. The property owner must understand that if there is a need in the future for the City or County to remove any portion within the easement, that they will do so and not be obligated to replace it.

Page 1 of 9 PC Agenda Item – XX MEMORANDUM DATE: April 5, 2023 TO: Planning Commission Chair and Commissioners FROM: Jessica Jagoe, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Planning Case #23-007 – Public Hearing Required Applicant: Flaherty’s Property Address: 1273 West County Road E Request: Site Plan Review and Zoning Code Amendment Requested Action Flaherty’s, “The Applicant,” is proposing modifications to the existing parking lot at Flaherty’s Arden Bowl, “The Subject Property,” to expand the existing outdoor patio area and allow for a space for outdoor recreational games. A zoning code amendment to City Code Chapter 13 – Zoning Code of Arden Hills City Code is required to add language to define and allow for the proposed outdoor recreational activity as an accessory use within the B-2, General Business. Background 1. Overview of Request The Applicant is applying for Site Plan Review for evaluation of the site layout and parking modifications that are being proposed to expand the existing outdoor patio area. The patio expansion will include additional dining tables, pergolas, a lounge area with fireplace, and a commercial recreation area for cornhole leagues. In order to construct the patio expansion, the Applicant would need to remove five parking spaces in front of the building. Two of those spaces are accessible parking spaces that will be relocated near the patio within the existing parking lot. A Site Plan Review is required in any Business, Industrial, or Multiple Family Zoning District when there is the reorganization of parking, drives, and entrances. As part of the application, the Applicant is also requesting a zoning code amendment to allow for commercial recreational use to be conducted outdoors in the B-2 Zoning District. Currently, the city code limits any commercial recreational activity to be conducted within an enclosed building (i.e. indoors). The Applicant is proposing that the allowance for a commercial recreation – outdoor would be limited to being an accessory use only when conducted in conjunction with a Attachment I Page 2 of 9 commercial recreation – indoor land use. Additionally, their narrative notes that restrictions could be included in the amended ordinance language such as capping the evening hours for which the outdoor recreational activity would be allowed (i.e. 10 PM) or no high voltage lighting (i.e. flood lights). The Subject Property is approximately 1.5 acres. The bowling alley also features a full service restaurant/party room and an arcade. In addition to the Subject Property, the Applicant owns two other parcels in the immediate area (i.e. east and north) along Connelly Avenue that are utilized for overflow off-street parking for the bowling alley. Neither of these parcels have a structure, parking lot only. Ramsey County Aerial Map 2.

Site Data: Future Land Use Plan: Community Mixed Use Existing Land Use: Commercial/Bowling Alley Zoning: B-2 General Business District Size: 1.57 acres Plan Evaluation Chapter 13, Zoning Regulations Review 1. General Requirements - Sections 1325.05 and 1325.06 A. Off- Street Parking – Meets Requirements The Site Plan Review process is triggered for this application due to the reorganization of parking, drives, and entrances. The Applicant is proposing to remove five (5) parking spaces in front of the building to the expanded outdoor patio and add artificial turf for the commercial recreation area. Two (2) of those off-street parking spaces are accessible parking spaces. The Applicant intends to move and relabel two (2) other existing spaces immediately adjacent to the building so there is no reduction in the number of accessible parking spaces on the site. For the Site Plan Review, the Subject Property has 40 outdoor dining seats and is proposing to add 16 – 20 additional outdoor dining seats. Per City Code, restaurant uses must provide one (1) parking space for every two (2) seats and a bowling alley must provide five (5) for each lane. Currently, the Applicant has a total of 286 off-street parking spaces between the three (3) parking lots. Under the new site plan, the Subject Propert y would have 281 off-street parking spaces. Land Use Parking Requirement Flaherty’s Required # of Parking Spaces Bowling Alley 5 for each lane plus related uses 36 lanes 180 Restaurant 1 for every 2 seat 135 indoor seats 60 outdoor seats (includes proposed expanded seating) 97.5 Total Required Off- Street Parking Spaces – 277.5 B. Impervious Surface – Meets Requirements The B-2 Zoning District allows impervious surface coverage up to 80% of the site. The Applicant included in their application a breakdown of permeable and impervious surfaces for the project area. The current concrete patio will remain as is. The expanded patio area would square off the existing patio in front of the building and remove approximately 1,354 square feet of green space (i.e. grass). There are no trees to be removed as part of this project. The proposed artificial turf area for the commercial recreation outdoor space would be installed Page 4 of 9 immediately adjacent to the existing patio area with a permeable base material. This area is currently a paved portion of the parking lot. The permeable surface area added as a result of the proposed project is 1,357 square feet. Therefore, the impervious surface coverage that exists today remains the same. C. Design Standards for Existing Sites B2 District – Meets Requirements In March 2008, the City completed a visioning and planning process for the B-2 District, which generally includes the properties near County Road E between Lexington Avenue and Hamline Avenue/Highway 51. The “Guiding Plan for the B-2 District” includes a long-term vision for the future redevelopment of this corridor and addresses transportation issues, land uses, infrastructure improvements, landscaping, pedestrian facilities, building design, and site layout among other issues. To implement these goals, the City adopted Section 1325.05, Subd. 8 which applies to New Development, Redevelopment, and Modifications in the B2 and B3 Districts for review of architecture, landscaping, and site design. In this application, the Applicant is not proposing any changes to the existing building. The Site Plan Review pertains to the site design elements of the outdoor patio and commercial recreation area. 1. Fences - In the B2 District, fences shall blend into the landscape using finished materials of either wood, brick, stone or wrought iron. a. The Applicant is proposing the perimeter of these outdoor areas would be combination of a three (3) foot-tall aluminum decorative fence with gates and a 34” tall block retaining wall. 2. Site furnishings and seating areas – These features are encouraged and may include tables, chairs, benches, plantings, and other outdoor amenities such as a plaza. These areas shall be maintained for year-round use. Creativity is highly encouraged. These spaces shall be connected to the sidewalk system. Benches and decorative plantings shall be provided near the primary entrance of all buildings on a site. a. The Applicant is proposing to expand the outdoor patio with the addition of four (4) to six (6) tables. The patio area will have an outdoor lounge area with a fireplace. Three (3) pergolas are shown in the design with one space featuring a waterfall feature. Greenery will be added such as vines coming down the walls, planters in front of the fencing, hanging ferns, and other potted plants hanging from the arbors. A paver walkway will be added, connecting the patio area to the existing sidewalk along County Road E. Lastly, there will be bike racks added adjacent to this walkway. 3. Pedestrian and Bicycle Circulation – Site designs in the B2 District shall facilitate pedestrian connections and mobility within and between buildings, sites, and uses by providing clear visual indicators through door placement, signage, striping, raised pathways, and integrating landscaping components. An internal sidewalk system shall link the primary entrance of each building on site with the public sidewalk or trail network. a. The Applicant is proposing to add a walkway to the existing sidewalk along County Road E. The Public Works Director/City Engineer commented that the sidewalk connection is approved as long as Ramsey County has no issues. Planning staff did forward the application to Ramsey County for review and they had no additional Page 5 of 9 comments or concerns. It was noted that if there is a need in the future for the City or County to remove any portion of the proposed walkway shown within the easement, this would be done without replacement. 4. Bicycle Parking – The city code states bicycle parking shall be located in a safe, designated area and should be within 50 feet of the primary building entrance. Bicycle racks shall be visible either from within the building or the public right-of-way. For commercial uses, one (1) bicycle parking space shall be provided for every 20 automobile parking spaces. A minimum of two (2) parking spaces is required. a. The Applicant has stated in their application that they are intending to add bicycle racks as part of this project, but it is not stated how many spaces would be provided. Based on the number of post outdoor patio remodel off-street parking spaces, the Subject Property would be required to install 14 bicycle parking spaces. Zoning Code Text Amendments The purpose of the B-2 General Business District is to: x Be a place in which people can live, work and play. x Create a compact, architecturally diverse, pedestrian- and bicycle-friendly community with a distinct identity. x Provide a connected sidewalk system and places for people to gather and socialize. To implement design standards to promote an attractive environment with lasting and sustainable value. x Group compatible retail and service business uses that tend to draw trade that is naturally interchangeable and promotes business prosperity. x Provide an adequate supply of businesses and professional service areas to meet the needs of the residents. x Minimize the effects of traffic congestion, noise, odor, glare and similar safety problems. According to the Applicant, the proposed ordinance amendment will enhance the recreation activities within the community to all ages. Their narrative states that a bowling alley is primarily a winter recreational activity. The requested ordinance amendment will help their business increase the customer visits to include the spring and summer months. Currently the city code is absent of land use language permitting any type of commercial recreation activity outside of the building in any of the zoning districts. To allow this land use, the City’s Zoning Code would need to be amended to add a definition for Commercial Recreation – Outdoor and to designate this type of land use as an accessory use in the B-2 General Business District. Staff has prepared text amendments based on the Applicant’s narrative as well as a few other text amendment considerations for “Commercial Recreation - Outdoor” language within Sections 1305.04 Definitions, 1320.04 Purpose of Districts, 1320.05 Land Use Chart and 1325.02 Accessory Uses. Applicant’s Narrative: 1) Add a definition for Commercial Recreation – Outdoor - Section 1305.04 Definitions Page 6 of 9 a. Commercial Recreation – Outdoor: An accessory commercial recreational use conducted outdoor including but not limited to horseshoes, bocce ball, or cornhole. 2) The Land Use Chart within Section 1320.05 would be amended to include Commercial Recreation - Outdoor: a. Add a land use category for Commercial Recreation – Outdoor as an Accessory Use under the B-2 Zoning District. Additional Code Amendments to consider: 3) Amend Section 1325.02, Accessory Uses a. Create a new Subdivision 5 that establishes the requirements and criteria for an administrative permit for Commercial Recreation – Outdoor as an accessory use on a property where the principal use is Commercial Recreation - Indoor. Proposed language: A. Commercial Recreation - Outdoor shall only be permitted as an accessory use on a property where the principal use is Commercial Recreation - Indoor. B. Commercial Recreation – Outdoor shall only be permitted in the B-2 General Business District. C. An Administrative Permit shall be required from the Community Development Department to allow outdoor recreational activities. The Community Development Department shall review a site plan and specifics of the proposed outdoor recreation area and may issue the permit, subject to, but not limited to, the following requirements: 1. The Subject Property shall not be located immediately adjacent to a residentially zoned property. 2. All commercial recreation – outdoor related activity must cease by 10 PM on weekdays and weekends. 3. The location of the outdoor commercial recreation area needs to be contiguous to the principal building and shall be a contained space with a defined perimeter of either decorative fencing, retaining walls, and/or plantings. 4. The permitted commercial recreation – outdoor area shall not exceed 1,500 square feet. Additional Review Building Inspector The Building Inspector has reviewed the plans and has no additional comments at this time. A building permit will be required for the pergolas shown on the site plan. The retaining walls, since under 4 feet, will require a zoning permit prior to installation. Ramsey County Ramsey County has reviewed the plans and has no additional comments at this time. Fire Marshal Page 7 of 9 The Fire Marshal has reviewed the plans. He has requested there be two outward swinging gates. The gates could be self-latching. If the gates lock for the outside, the Fire Marshal would require some type of panic hardware to allow the gates to open to allow egress. Public Works Director/City Engineer The Public Works Director/City Engineer has reviewed the plans and has the following comments: x It appears the land disturbance area does not trigger the need for a Grading and Erosion Control permit but the Public Works Department will need to see the final erosion control plans to make sure there is perimeter control planned. x No Right-of-Way permit needed with the City. x Right-of-Way permit likely needed with the County. Applicant shall provide verification if a permit is issued or not prior to commencement of project. x The sidewalk connection is approved as long as Ramsey County has no issues with it as well. The property owner must understand that if there is a need in the future for the City or County to remove any portion within the easement, that they will do so and not be obligated to replace it. Findings of Fact The Planning Commission must make a finding as to whether or not the proposed application would adversely affect the surrounding neighborhood or the community as a whole based on the aforementioned factors. Staff offers the following findings for consideration: General Findings: 1. The Applicant has submitted an application for Site Plan Review at 1273 West County Road E to expand the existing outdoor patio that will include an accessory outdoor commercial recreation area. 2.

Recommend Denial 4. Table Chair Vijums opened the floor to Commissioner comments. Commissioner Bjorklund stated he had a lot of concerns with the proposal. He questioned if Flaherty’s would be serving alcohol in the outdoor locations. Community Development Director Jagoe explained the Applicant was currently allowed to serve alcohol on the patio and this service would continue in the new expanded patio area. Commissioner Bjorklund indicated he was concerned with noise that would be generated from the expanded patio area. He feared amplified sound would be coming from Flaherty’s which would adversely impact the quiet enjoyment of the surrounding residential neighbors. He suggested the patio area be properly screened. Commissioner Collins requested further information on what was meant by commercial recreation. Community Development Director Jagoe explained this included bowling alleys, indoor archery or health clubs that were in a commercial zoning district. Commissioner Weber stated he supported the request and recommended screening be considered for the patio area. Chair Vijums questioned if the proposed zoning code language would apply to future commercial recreation requests. Community Development Director Jagoe stated this language would apply to businesses that were commercial recreation indoor uses that wished to expand to having commercial recreation outdoor use. Chair Vijums asked how staff came up with the proposed size limitations (1,500 square feet). Community Development Director Jagoe explained this was based on the proposed request and staff attempting to set a standard for the outdoor space so that it might not be expanded into the size of a hockey rink or ballfield size outdoor area. Chair Vijums supported the City having more flexibility with the size of the outdoor recreation space or perhaps having this be a ratio to the building size. Community Development Director Jagoe stated the Planning Commission could modify this language or make the outdoor recreation a conditional use. Commissioner Weber indicated he did not believe it was appropriate to change City Code that only benefits one business in the City. He supported outdoor recreation being more open to other businesses as well.DRAFTdingdin n on what was men on what w explained this includeained thi ercial zoning district.rcial zoning dis upported the request ed the request if the proposed zoninf the proposed zoni uests. pment Dpmenirector Jagoerector Jago creation indoor uses creation indoor u ff cff c ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION –April 5, 2023 5 Commissioner Collins commented he supported the Commission discussing the size of the outdoor space further. He explained he did not want the outdoor spaces taken to an extreme, but rather would support the City moving forward with staff’s recommendation as a model for success moving forward. Chair Vijums explained he supported the model provided by staff as well. Commissioner Wicklund requested further information regarding what the options would be to screen the outdoor recreational space. Community Development Director Jagoe discussed the pergola that would be installed on site noting the pergola would have greenery planted to grow on it. She then reviewed the location of a 20 foot Ramsey County easement on the Flaherty’s property, noting the patio would go right to the edge of the easement. She cautioned the applicant from putting any plantings in the easement area. Commissioner Wicklund stated he was in favor of the language provided by staff when it came to the size of the outdoor recreation area. Commissioner Mitchell indicated she supported the expanded outdoor patio area being a fun place for individuals. She did not want the area to be closed off from the passing public, but rather thought the area should be visible from the street as a welcoming space. Chair Vijums agreed stating if the area was heavily screened the public would not be able to see the activities that occur within the expanded patio area. He stated he would not be in favor of any type of screening. He noted he also supported leaving the size of the outdoor recreational space at 1,500 square feet. Commissioner Weber reiterated that he was not comfortable with the City writing code that was only for one business in the community. He suggested a conditional use permit be considered versus rewriting City Code. Community Development Director Jagoe explained if the Commission were to require the applicant to receive a conditional use permit, this recommendation would be considered by the City Council and the applicants would have to come back and apply for an outdoor commercial use as a conditional use. Commissioner Weber questioned if the applicant had a contractor lined up for the outdoor patio expansion. Adam Flaherty, 1273 West County Road E, explained he did have a contractor lined up for the patio work. He noted the patio season in Minnesota was limited and he would like to have the work done and ready for the 2023 season. Commissioner Weber stated he was concerned with the fact the new language was too restrictive. He supported the use being opened to other businesses in the community in order to allow restaurants to have outdoor patios.

DirDir ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION –April 5, 2023 6 Community Development Director Jagoe explained the language could be amended, striking Item A, which would then allow other businesses to have an outdoor patio because they were a commercial use in the B-2 zoning district. Commissioner Weber believed this was a reasonable change to the language. Chair Vijums reported the Commission would have to also take into consideration how this language could be interpreted for the TCAAP property. Commissioner Bjorklund commented he was still concerned about amplification of sound and requested that no amplification of noise be allowed on the outdoor patio. Commissioner Mitchell suggested the outdoor patio be tied to a decibel level. Community Development Director Jagoe reported noise standards per City Code would have to be followed for the outdoor patio. Chair Vijums stated he did not believe it was necessary to restrict the decibel level for the patio area. Commissioner Weber asked if Bethel University or Mounds View High School had a special permit to allow for the amplification of noise on their property. Community Development Director Jagoe explained she would have to review their stadium renovation requests. She understood the sound was projected in a specific manner so as to reduce the impact on the neighboring residential properties and as part of the stadium approvals there were limitations on types of events and hours. Commissioner Wicklund reviewed the language that was included in the Bethel University stadium request noting the sound system installed was to meet all EPA and MPCA standards. Commissioner Collins stated he did not believe the same volume would be created on an outdoor patio as was being generated by the football stadium. Commissioner Bjorklund commented on how difficult it was to enforce noise concerns and stated he would have to rely on the owner’s best judgement to manage the noise coming from the outdoor patio. Chair Vijums opened the public hearing at 7:29 p.m. The Planning Commission received one written comment that was submitted by Kim Sawtell, 3637 Hamline Avenue N., in advance of the meeting in support of the application as requested. Chair Vijums invited anyone for or against the application to come forward and make comment.

The motion carried unanimously (7-0). B. Planning Case 23-005; 4300 Round Lake Road W and 1987 Gateway Boulevard – Site Plan Review –Public Hearing Not Required Community Development Director Jagoe stated the Applicant has submitted a land use application for a Site Plan Review, seeking flexibility on the size wall signs at two Delkor office buildings. The two buildings are located in Sign District 7, which allows a wall sign with a maximum size of 45 square feet. The Applicant is proposing one (1) 60 square foot wall sign on the western elevation of each building. Community Development Director Jagoe explained at its January 17, 2023 meeting, the City Council considered a request for a Concept Plan Review for the proposed wall signs. At this meeting, the Council expressed general support for the requested flexibility in wall sign size. At this meeting, Planning Staff presented the City Council with a second option to amend the Sign Code. The City Council briefly discussed the undertaking of amending the sign ordinance. Given the Applicant’s desired timeline for sign installation, they are pursuing the application for Site Plan Review based on the Council’s feedback. Community Development Director Jagoe reported the Applicant was recently approved for a Planned Unit Development Amendment at a third location they occupy at 4200 Round Lake Road. At their August 22, 2022 meeting, the City Council approved a request for wall signage with a 60-square-foot copy area on three elevations at the new Gateway building subject to sign standards under Sign District 6. The Applicant has indicated the proposed signage would be consistent and conform to the approvals at 4200 Round Lake Road. Community Development Director Jagoe indicated the Applicant is proposing 60 square foot signage that will match the wall signs at their 4200 Round Lake Road location. Planning Staff would add that the new construction of the Gateway Interstate building at 4200 Round Lake Road was approved on October 12, 2020 as part of a Planned Unit Development that included sign district flexibility.

Planning Case 23-007 – Site Plan Review and Zoning Code Text Amendments, 1273 West County Road EQuestions? Page 1 of 4 NEW BUSINESS – 10A MEMORANDUM DATE: April 24, 2023 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Dave Perrault, City Administrator FROM: Jessica Jagoe, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Planning Case #23-007 – Public Hearing Required Applicant: Flaherty’s Property Address: 1273 West County Road E Request: Site Plan Review and Zoning Code Amendment Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: N/A N/A N/A Council Should Consider Motion to approve, table, or deny the following x Adoption of Resolution 2023-020 and Ordinance 2023-004 approving Planning Case 23- 007 for a Site Plan Review at 1273 West County Road E and Zoning Code Amendments in Sections 1305.04, 1320.05, and 1325.02 – Subd. 5 of the Arden Hills City Code to define and allow for commercial recreational outdoor activity as an accessory use within the B-2, General Business. x Authorization to publish a Summary Ordinance of 2023-004 for Planning Case 23-007. Approval for authorization to publish summary ordinance requires an affirmative vote of four councilmembers. Background 1. Overview of Request The Applicant is applying for Site Plan Review for evaluation of the site layout and parking modifications that are being proposed to expand the existing outdoor patio area. The patio expansion will include additional dining tables, pergolas, a lounge area with fireplace, and a commercial recreation area for cornhole leagues. In order to construct the patio expansion, the Applicant would need to remove five parking spaces in front of the building. Two of those Page 2 of 4 spaces are accessible parking spaces that will be relocated near the patio within the existing parking lot. A Site Plan Review is required in any Business, Industrial, or Multiple Family Zoning District when there is the reorganization of parking, drives, and entrances. As part of the application, the Applicant is also requesting a zoning code amendment to allow for commercial recreational use to be conducted outdoors in the B-2 Zoning District. Currently, the city code limits any commercial recreational activity to be conducted within an enclosed building (i.e. indoors). The Applicant is proposing that the allowance for a commercial recreation – outdoor would be limited to being an accessory use only when conducted in conjunction with a commercial recreation – indoor land use. Additionally, their narrative notes that restrictions could be included in the amended ordinance language such as capping the evening hours for which the outdoor recreational activity would be allowed (i.e. 10 PM) or no high voltage lighting (i.e. flood lights). Findings of Fact The Planning Commission reviewed this application at their April 5, 2023 meeting and have offered the following findings of fact for your consideration. General Findings: 1. The Applicant has submitted an application for Site Plan Review at 1273 West County Road E to expand the existing outdoor patio that will include an accessory outdoor commercial recreation area. 2. The Subject Property is located within the B2 General Business District and is guided as Community Mixed Use on the 2040 Land Use Plan. 3. Through the Site Plan Review, the Applicant is seeking approval to remove five off-street parking spaces and reconfigure the location of accessible parking spaces in order to expand the outdoor patio space. 4. The Applicant is proposing to add approximately 1,350 square feet of new impervious surface for the expanded outdoor patio area and is converting approximately the same square footage of existing impervious surface to a permeable surface with the addition of artificial turf on the Subject Property. 5. The proposed plan does not conflict with the general purpose and intent of the Zoning Code or the Comprehensive Development Plan for the City. 6. The application is not anticipated to create a negative impact on the immediate area or the community as a whole. 7. The proposed plan will not produce any permanent noise, odors, vibration, smoke, dust, air pollution, heat, liquid, or solid waste, and other nuisance characteristics. 8. The proposed plan is not anticipated to have any impact on traffic or parking conditions. 9. The outdoor patio and accessory commercial recreation – outdoor area would be in compliance with all provisions of the Zoning Code. 10. A public hearing is not required for Site Plan Review. Page 3 of 4 Text Amendment Findings: 1. Flaherty’s, The Applicant, is proposing amendments to the language of Chapter 13 – Zoning Code of the City Code. 2. Currently, Section 1305.04 does not include a definition for Commercial Recreation – Outdoor. 3. The Applicant is proposing the City amend the zoning code to add a definition for Commercial Recreation - Outdoor to Section 1305.04 of the Zoning Code. 4. The Applicant is proposing an amendment to alter the Land Use Chart in Section 1320.05 of the Zoning Code to allow a Commercial Recreation – Outdoor as an Accessory Use in the B2 General Business District. 5. The proposed amendment advances the economic development goals in the City’s Comprehensive Plan because it provides for land use regulations in commercial zones that provide flexibility for economic development while requiring high aesthetic standards. 6. Amendments to the Zoning Code regulations require a public hearing prior to action by the City Council. 7. If the zoning amendments were approved, an Applicant would be required to apply for an Administrative Permit for the accessory use to allow Commercial Recreation – Outdoor within the B2 Zoning District. 8. The Planning Commission conducted a public hearing for the Text Amendment on April 5, 2023.

Page 1 of 11 NEW BUSINESS – 10B MEMORANDUM DATE: April 24, 2023 TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers Dave Perrault, City Administrator FROM: Jessica Jagoe, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Planning Case #23-006 – No Public Hearing Required Applicant: Lindey’s, Inc. Property Location: 3610 Snelling Avenue North Request: Site Plan Review Budgeted Amount: Actual Amount: Funding Source: N/A N/A N/A Council Should Consider Motion to approve, table, or deny the following x Adoption of Resolution 2023-021 for Planning Case 23-006 a Site Plan Review for the property located at 3610 Snelling Avenue North (“Subject Property”). Mark and Tracy Lindemer, Lindey’s, Inc. (“The Applicants”) are proposing modifications to the existing parking lot at the Lindey’s Restaurant. The Site Plan Review includes parking to be added and modified to address truck circulation and property demands. Additional parking along the relocated County Road E driveway will include improvements to ADA parking and pedestrian areas. Background 1. Overview of Request and Planning Case Background Lindey’s Prime Steakhouse opened in Arden Hills in 1961. The City established the Neighborhood Business District on September 27, 1999. Neighborhood Business sites are located at the edge of residential neighborhoods and are intended to provide a limited range of over-the-counter, convenience, retail, and service uses to accommodate the needs of the adjacent residents. Since these areas are located adjacent to residential neighborhoods, the City did adopt limitations on the type, size and intensity of uses within this district. On November 27, 2000, the Page 2 of 11 City rezoned seven sites, including the Subject Property, to NB, Neighborhood Business District. Today, the Subject Property is considered legal nonconforming in this district. The Applicants are applying for Site Plan Review for evaluation of the site layout and parking modifications that are being proposed as a result of the operational changes impacted by the County Road E/Old Snelling Avenue Roundabout project. There are no changes to the restaurant operations or the building as part of this application. As a legal nonconforming site, the County has allowed the continuation of use of the two driveway accesses along Old Snelling Avenue and one access off of County Road E. The access off of County Road E is a smaller commercial/residential driveway. With the roadway project, the Applicants are required by Ramsey County to eliminate one of the driveway accesses along Old Snelling Avenue in order to bring the property closer to conformance with current County standards. Thus, the proposed parking lot improvements have triggered the Site Plan Review process for reconfiguration of the site layout. The Subject Property is approximately 1.5 acres which includes both a restaurant, a residential home, and a detached cottage. The main parking lot is located in the western and central portions of the lot. The site has significant tree canopy coverage with more green areas on the southern and eastern portion of the property. The parking lot reconfiguration will occur essentially within the same footprint that exists today with the exception of the addition of parking spaces between the building and eastern property line. For the Site Plan review, the proposed improvements include elimination of the southern most access on Old Snelling Avenue, upgrading the driveway access off of County Road E to full commercial standards, and the addition of parking stalls and a trash enclosure. The Planning Commission reviewed this application at their April 5, 2023 meeting. During the meeting, the Planning Commission voted to strike the draft Condition of Approval #5 “All retaining wall materials shall be complementary to the building materials and shall be approved in writing by the Planning Division prior to issuance of a building permit. Retaining walls greater than four (4) feet in height shall be engineered and detailed calculations shall be submitted to the City.” This motion was made after the Applicant clarified that there would be no retaining walls on the Lindey’s property, but rather a retaining wall would be installed in the right-of-way as part of the roadway project and would be installed by the roadway contractor. He explained this retaining wall would be on a portion of land the County would be purchasing from Lindey’s and the retaining wall would be maintained by the County going forward. For this reason, he requested Condition 5 be removed from consideration. The motion carried unanimously (7-0). The Planning Commission also recommended approval with conditions of the application from Lindey’s for a Site Plan Review by a 7-0 vote. Page 3 of 11 2.

Land Use Chart (NB Neighborhood Business District) – Section 1320.05 The Subject Property is located in the NB, Neighborhood Business District. A Restaurant and Restaurant-Fast Food is a conditional use in this district. Lindey’s Prime Steakhouse is a legal nonconforming use in this district that is allowed to continue to operate and be maintained until such time that there is a change in use or intensification/expansion that triggers an additional Page 4 of 11 zoning/land use review. The proposed parking lot modifications fall under the categories of repair, replacement, restoration, and maintenance as allowed as a continuation of a nonconforming use. 2. Special Requirements for the Neighborhood Business District - Section 1320.08, Subd. 5 - Building Exteriors, Site Features, and Site Development A. Buffer Yards – Legal Nonconforming and Flexibility Requested In the NB District, the City requires a 30 foot buffer strip adjacent to all residential uses outside of the neighborhood business district. The buffer yard is to be landscaped with a combination of evergreen trees and deciduous trees such that the use is substantially screened from the adjacent residences. The buffer yard landscaping may be in excess of the minimum landscaping requirements. The abutting parcels to the north and east are both residentially zoned. The Applicants will be removing existing bituminous curbing along the north property line and reinstalling curb and gutter as part of the project in the same location. No changes are proposed to the location of the parking lot along the west, north and south property lines. This existing portion of the parking lot is legal nonconforming as there is not a 30 foot buffer strip between the residential property to the north. The site plan shows there is 4.67 feet between the curbing and north property line. Two (2) of the three (3) trees along the north property line will be removed since they are nuisance trees. The Applicants had discussed adding a fence along the north boundary line as part of the project scope, but that is not shown on their site plans as part of this application review. Between the building and the eastern property line, the Applicants are proposing to adding pavement for a customer drop off area adjacent to the currently existing ADA customer ramp, plus 13 parking spaces. The Applicants’ narrative notes that the County Road E driveway and new parking were specifically located to minimize conflict with the roundabout design so this was not fully controlled by the site. The buffer area from the back of curb to the east property line ranges from 9.5 feet to 23.7 feet. Fives (5) trees are shown to be removed in this area as part of the project. The site plan shows that the existing trees and vegetation along the eastern property line will remain. To supplement, the Applicants’ are proposing to add vegetation under the canopy of trees for supplemental screening. The landscaping plan shows a variety of shrubs and three (3) of the required replacement trees in the buffer area. The City Council should discuss if the buffer yards are sufficient as proposed or if a recommended condition of approval should be added that would require additional landscaping and/or a fence between the adjacent residential properties. B. Lighting – Meets Requirements The existing parking lot has two flood lights attached to utility poles which will be removed. As part of the Site Plan Review, the Applicants have submitted a lighting and photometric plan. The NB District states that parking lot lighting shall not exceed 14 feet in height. The proposed fixtures will be hooded and downcast style fixture. Section 1325.05, Subd. 3 states that no lighting shall cast illumination that exceeds one foot candle on the travel lanes of Page 5 of 11 adjoining public streets or 0.4 foot candles on adjoining residential properties. The proposed lighting and photometric plan comply with city requirements. C. Trash Enclosure – Meets Requirements A new trash enclosure is part of the parking lot improvements whereas today there is no enclosure and the trash containers are unscreened. The trash enclosure will be located on the east side of the new parking spaces. The NB District requires that trash be fully screened in a masonry enclosure or stored within the principal structure. The 24’ x 12’ enclosure will be constructed on three sides using concrete block with recycled vinyl boards for the gates. D. Bicycle Racks – Meets Requirements The Subject Property currently does not have any bike racks. This project includes the addition of two (2) bicycle racks for a total of four (4) bike spaces. The NB District encourages racks to be located in an area that is convenient to the main entry into the building. The proposed bike racks are shown on the site plan to be located adjacent to the east side of the building near the ADA parking and pedestrian area. E. Sidewalks – Legal Nonconforming and Flexibility Requested The Ramsey County led roadway project is scheduled to provide a short public trail segment at the roundabout with a connection to Lindey’s in the southwest area of their site. This work will be completed within the County’s right-of-way. The NB District requires sidewalks to be provided adjacent to all public right-of-ways. The Applicants’ narrative notes that the existing parking lot does not have any pedestrian sidewalks or connections adjacent to the site. The Applicants are seeking flexibility from the requirement in satisfaction of the roadway improvements that will include a trail connection. 3. General Requirements - Sections 1325.05 and 1325.06 A. Parking and Site Operations – Meets Requirements The Site Plan Review process is triggered due to the reorganization of parking, drives, and entrances. The proposed improvements will add 7,073 square feet of new pavement to the existing parking lot along the east side of the property. The Applicants are proposing to reclaim and restripe the 39,717 square feet of existing pavement area within the same footprint. The additional parking and changes to site circulation are primarily the result of the need to address truck circulation (i.e. semi-truck deliveries, trash haulers) and property demands. Site Plan Sheet C2.0 shows the truck turning movement plan. Under the new site plan, the Subject Property will have one driveway access off of Old Snelling Avenue and one driveway access of County Road E. The drive aisles internal on the site vary in width between 16 feet to 24 feet. The Public Works Director/City Engineer has reviewed the proposed site plan with regard to access locations, spacing, and sizing of driveway width. Per City Code, restaurant uses must provide one (1) parking space for every two (2) seats. Individual spaces as shown on the site plan comply with sizing requirements. The Applicants are proposing Page 6 of 11 to add curb and gutter around the perimeter of the entire parking lot. Only a portion of the existing parking lot currently has curb and gutter. Surface runoff will drain to a new storm inlet installed by the County as part of the roadway project at the west perimeter of the parking lot. Land Use Parking Requirement Restaurant Seating Capacity Required # of Parking Spaces Existing # of Parking Spaces Proposed # of Parking Spaces Restaurant 1 for every 2 seats 106 seats 53 67 74 The City’s parking regulations include a provision that snow storage areas shall be provided so that the number of parking spaces is not reduced below the minimum required. The City may initiate proceedings to require that snow be hauled off site if parking and circulation problems related to inadequate snow-removal occur. The civil plans provided by the Applicants do not identify areas for snow storage on the Subject Property. The City Council, as part of the application review, may request additional information from the Applicants to ensure adequate snow storage areas will be preserved as part of the parking lot improvements or if there are plans to haul snow off-site. B. Parking Setbacks – Legal Nonconforming and Meets Requirements The NB district requires a 20 foot setback for parking areas from public streets and ROW. In addition, off-street parking areas containing four (4) or more parking spaces shall be no closer than five (5) feet from any side or rear lot line. The site plans submitted confirm the existing parking lot is legal nonconforming with a 0 foot setback abutting the right-of-way along Old Snelling Avenue and a 4.67 foot setback from the north property line. For the Site Plan Review there are no changes proposed to existing setbacks on the west and north sides of the property. The new parking lot area is setback 22.5 feet from right-of-way along County Road E and 10.5 feet from the east property line. The proposed new parking lot area complies with setback requirements. Additionally, city code states the area (i.e. setback area) along the street shall be landscaped. Since there are no proposed changes to the existing location of the parking lot adjacent to the roadway, the Applicants were only able to add landscaping islands adjacent to the driveways which will include plantings. C. Trees along Street Frontage – Legal Nonconforming and Flexibility Requested A minimum of one (1) tree shall be provided along the ROW for every 50 feet of public street frontage. The Subject Property has 435 linear feet of road frontage which equates to nine (9) trees. Today, there are four (4) existing trees along the roadway. For the Site Plan Review, the Applicants are proposing to add one (1) additional tree along the roadway in the southeast corner of the site. Their narrative requests review of this requirement as part of the legal nonconformity of the site given a significant amount of the frontage does not provide an area for the addition of trees. The westerly portion of the parking lot will remain unchanged in location so there is no green space in this area. The Applicants will be proposing future freestanding signs adjacent to the both driveway accesses and overhead utility lines also noted to complicate the potential for tree planting areas. It is further stated in their narrative that Page 7 of 11 efforts were made to preserve as many of the existing trees on the site with the proposed layout which would be consistent with the purpose of the NB District and intent of the city code. D. Minimum Caliper Inches – Meets Requirements The Zoning Code requires that a minimum number of caliper inches of trees be provided based on the gross square footage of the building on the property. The restaurant would be considered a single story, and includes 3,713 gross square feet. This requires a minimum of 11.6 caliper inches or six (6) – 2” caliper trees. It should be further noted that city code allows for existing plantings on site at the time of development to be used as credit against the requirements of the landscaping regulations. The Subject Property has 564 caliper inches of existing significant trees. E. Tree Mitigation – Meet Requirements The existing site has 564 caliper inches of significant trees. The Applicants are proposing to remove 85 caliper inches of significant trees. There are three (3) diseased or nuisance trees on the property that are being removed as part of this project. City code allows up to 10% of the significant trees to be removed without replacement. Replacement is not required for trees that are removed, cut, or killed which are identified as diseased or nuisance trees. Tree mitigation is required for every project where the number of caliper inches of significant trees removed over and above the 10%. For every two caliper inches of removed trees, one caliper inch of new trees has to be replaced. Existing Significant Trees 10% removal allowed Proposed Removal Less 10% Subtotal Required Replacement Proposed Replacement 564 caliper inches 56.4 caliper inches 85 caliper inches 28.6 caliper inches 14.3 caliper inches 14.5 caliper inches F. Landscaped Area and Perennials and Shrubberies – Flexibility Requested For any commercial building or parking lot to be expanded by at least 10%, or at least 5,000 square feet, where an approved landscape plan is not on file, the City requires a landscape plan to be submitted. The Applicants as part of their submittal have included a landscaping plan for review. City code requires that 35% of the site be landscaped. The Subject Property is currently at 37.9%. For the Site Plan Review, the landscaped area on the Subject Property would be reduced to 29.6%. Their narrative states that due to the numerous existing trees, additional landscape plantings added as part of this review, and the unique residential building area, it is their perspective that the intent of a larger green area is adequately compensated through the overall landscaping of the site. In the new landscape plan, the Applicants have added 31 shrubs and 104 perennials within the landscaped areas. Most of the plantings are located within the buffer area to boost the existing landscaping. The Zoning Code requires a minimum of 10 percent of the total landscaped area to be covered with perennials and/or shrubbery. The total landscape area on the Subject Property is 20,525 square feet. The proposed plantings total 2,318 square feet of the landscaped area which covers approximately 11%. Page 8 of 11 G. Stormwater Management The City Code requires stormwater management be provided to meet water quantity, infiltration, and water quality requirements. The Applicants have been in contact with the Rice Creek Watershed District on the stormwater design. Based on the scope of work and new pavement square footage, the Rice Creek Watershed District has indicated a stormwater permit will not be required. The Applicants have applied for a Grading and Drainage Permit with the Rice Creek Watershed District. Their narrative states the site will retain parking lot surface drainage to the roadway through the driveways. In addition, the project will incorporate drainage to two (2) new storm structure inlets at the west parking lot curb perimeter. Planning Staff recommends City Council consideration of a condition of Site Plan Review would be subject to approval of the Rice Creek Watershed District as well as comments referenced herein from the Public Works Director/City Engineer including obtaining all necessary permits for the proposed parking lot improvements. 1355.04 Procedural Requirements for Specific Applications Section 1355.04, Subd. 5 of the Arden Hills Zoning Code states that a public hearing is not required for Site Plan Review, but neighboring property owners shall be notified. Notification was prepared in accordance with City policy. 1320.08 - Special Requirements for the Neighborhood Business District Section 1320.08, Subd. 4 of the Arden Hills Zoning Code states that at the time of submittal for the Site Plan Review, the Applicant shall identify modifications to the standard zoning requirements otherwise applicable to the site and the reasons why the modifications would be in the public interest and would be consistent with the purpose of the district. The Applicant shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the City that the proposed uses, lot sizes, height, use mix, location and relationship with other existing and proposed uses are compatible and complementary both internally and with adjacent uses, and meet the intent of the City as expressed in the NB District purpose and the above criteria for allowable uses. Additional Review Building Inspector The Building Inspector has reviewed the plans and has no additional comments at this time. City code states that a building permit shall be required in such case where a commercial, industrial, public or semi-public land use is intending to construct on-site parking containing a site aggregate of more than four (4) spaces or a loading facility that is not a part of, or has prior approval as part of a site plan for which a building permit has been issued. A building permit will be required for the parking lot improvements with the expanded parking lot area. Ramsey County Ramsey County has reviewed the plans and has no additional comments at this time. The Applicants will be required to apply for an access permit for the new access to County Road E with Ramsey County. Page 9 of 11 Rice Creek Watershed District The Rice Creek Watershed District has reviewed the plans. RCWD requests the Applicants submit final construction plans for review after the city review to confirm any changes in impervious surface numbers of the disturbed areas. Public Works Director/City Engineer The Public Works Director/City Engineer reviewed the plans and has the following comments which have been included in the draft recommended conditions of approval: x Grading and Erosion Control Permit Required x Restaurant Pedestrian Trail Connection to be maintained by property owner/business x Provide geotechnical engineer recommendations and/or geotechnical report for review by City Engineer x Provide copy of Ramsey County Right-of-Way permit x Provide statement of estimated quantities (SEQ) sheet and separate items to be funded by Owner and funded by County per the Funded Improvement Sketch plan sheet that was provided to Council at the January 9th 2023 City Council Meeting.

Property Location: 3610 Snelling Avenue North Request: Site Plan Review Requested Action Mark and Tracy Lindemer, Lindey’s, Inc. (“The Applicants”) have submitted a land use application for Site Plan Review for a project located at 3610 Snelling Avenue North (“Subject Property”). The Applicants are proposing modifications to the existing parking lot at the Lindey’s Restaurant. The modifications are in response to the County Road E/Old Snelling Avenue Roundabout project, led by Ramsey County. Parking is to be added and modified to address truck circulation and property demands. Additional parking along the relocated County Road E driveway will include improvements to ADA parking and pedestrian areas. The Subject Property is zoned NB, Neighborhood Business District and is guided as Low Density Residential on the Land Use Plan. Background 1. Overview of Request Lindey’s Prime Steakhouse opened in Arden Hills in 1961. The City established the Neighborhood Business District on September 27, 1999. Neighborhood Business sites are located at the edge of residential neighborhoods and are intended to provide a limited range of over-the-counter, convenience, retail, and service uses to accommodate the needs of the adjacent residents. Since these areas are located adjacent to residential neighborhoods, the City did adopt limitations on the type, size and intensity of uses within this district. On November 27, 2000, the City rezoned seven sites, including the Subject Property, to NB, Neighborhood Business District. Today, the Subject Property is considered legal nonconforming in this district. Attachment H Page 2 of 11 The Applicants are applying for Site Plan Review for evaluation of the site layout and parking modifications that are being proposed as a result of the operational changes impacted by the County Road E/Old Snelling Avenue Roundabout project. There are no changes to the restaurant operations or the building as part of this application. As a legal nonconforming site, the County has allowed the continuation of use of the two driveway accesses along Old Snelling Avenue and one access off of County Road E. The access off of County Road E is a smaller commercial/residential driveway. With the roadway project, the Applicants are required by Ramsey County to eliminate one of the driveway accesses along Old Snelling Avenue in order to bring the property closer to conformance with current County standards. Thus, the proposed parking lot improvements have triggered the Site Plan Review process for reconfiguration of the site layout. The Subject Property is approximately 1.5 acres which includes both a restaurant, a residential home, and a detached cottage. The main parking lot is located in the western and central portions of the lot. The site has significant tree canopy coverage with more green areas on the southern and eastern portion of the property. The parking lot reconfiguration will occur essentially within the same footprint that exists today with the exception of the addition of parking spaces between the building and eastern property line. For the Site Plan review, the proposed improvements include elimination of the southern most access on Old Snelling Avenue, upgrading the driveway access off of County Road E to full commercial standards, and the addition of parking stalls and a trash enclosure. 2.

Site Data: Future Land Use Plan: Low Density Residential Existing Land Use: Restaurant Zoning: NB, Neighborhood Business District Size: 1.47 acres Page 3 of 11 Ramsey County Aerial Map Plan Evaluation Chapter 13, Zoning Regulations Review 1. Land Use Chart (NB Neighborhood Business District) – Section 1320.05 The Subject Property is located in the NB, Neighborhood Business District. A Restaurant and Restaurant-Fast Food is a conditional use in this district. Lindey’s Prime Steakhouse is a legal nonconforming use in this district that is allowed to continue to operate and be maintained until such time that there is a change in use or intensification/expansion that triggers an additional zoning/land use review. The proposed parking lot modifications fall under the categories of repair, replacement, restoration, and maintenance as allowed as a continuation of a nonconforming use. 2. Special Requirements for the Neighborhood Business District - Section 1320.08, Subd. 5 - Building Exteriors, Site Features, and Site Development A. Buffer Yards – Legal Nonconforming and Flexibility Requested In the NB District, the City requires a 30 foot buffer strip adjacent to all residential uses outside of the neighborhood business district. The buffer yard is to be landscaped with a combination of evergreen trees and deciduous trees such that the use is substantially screened from the adjacent residences. The buffer yard landscaping may be in excess of the minimum landscaping requirements. The abutting parcels to the north and east are both residentially zoned. The Applicants will be removing existing bituminous curbing along the north property line and reinstalling curb and gutter as part of the project in the same location. No changes are proposed to the location of the parking lot along the west, north and south property lines. This existing portion of the parking Page 4 of 11 lot is legal nonconforming as there is not a 30 foot buffer strip between the residential property to the north. The site plan shows there is 4.67 feet between the curbing and north property line. Two (2) of the three (3) trees along the north property line will be removed since they are nuisance trees. The Applicants had discussed adding a fence along the north boundary line as part of the project scope, but that is not shown on their site plans as part of this application review. Between the building and the eastern property line, the Applicants are proposing to adding pavement for a customer drop off area adjacent to the currently existing ADA customer ramp, plus 13 parking spaces. The Applicants’ narrative notes that the County Road E driveway and new parking were specifically located to minimize conflict with the roundabout design so this was not fully controlled by the site. The buffer area from the back of curb to the east property line ranges from 9.5 feet to 23.7 feet. Fives (5) trees are shown to be removed in this area as part of the project. The site plan shows that the existing trees and vegetation along the eastern property line will remain. To supplement, the Applicants’ are proposing to add vegetation under the canopy of trees for supplemental screening. The landscaping plan shows a variety of shrubs and three (3) of the required replacement trees in the buffer area. The Planning Commission should discuss if the buffer yards are sufficient as proposed or if a recommended condition of approval should be added that would require additional landscaping and/or a fence between the adjacent residential properties. B. Lighting – Meets Requirements The existing parking lot has two flood lights attached to utility poles which will be removed. As part of the Site Plan Review, the Applicants have submitted a lighting and photometric plan. The NB District states that parking lot lighting shall not exceed 14 feet in height. The proposed fixtures will be hooded and downcast style fixture. Section 1325.05, Subd. 3 states that no lighting shall cast illumination that exceeds one foot candle on the travel lanes of adjoining public streets or 0.4 foot candles on adjoining residential properties. The proposed lighting and photometric plan comply with city requirements. C. Trash Enclosure – Meets Requirements A new trash enclosure is part of the parking lot improvements whereas today there is no enclosure and the trash containers are unscreened. The trash enclosure will be located on the east side of the new parking spaces. The NB District requires that trash be fully screened in a masonry enclosure or stored within the principal structure. The 24’ x 12’ enclosure will be constructed on three sides using concrete block with recycled vinyl boards for the gates. D. Bicycle Racks – Meets Requirements The Subject Property currently does not have any bike racks. This project includes the addition of two (2) bicycle racks for a total of four (4) bike spaces. The NB District encourages racks to be located in an area that is convenient to the main entry into the building. The proposed bike racks are shown on the site plan to be located adjacent to the east side of the building near the ADA parking and pedestrian area. Page 5 of 11 E. Sidewalks – Legal Nonconforming and Flexibility Requested The Ramsey County led roadway project is scheduled to provide a short public trail segment at the roundabout with a connection to Lindey’s in the southwest area of their site. This work will be completed within the County’s right-of-way. The NB District requires sidewalks to be provided adjacent to all public right-of-ways. The Applicants’ narrative notes that the existing parking lot does not have any pedestrian sidewalks or connections adjacent to the site. The Applicants are seeking flexibility from the requirement in satisfaction of the roadway improvements that will include a trail connection. 3. General Requirements - Sections 1325.05 and 1325.06 A. Parking and Site Operations – Meets Requirements The Site Plan Review process is triggered due to the reorganization of parking, drives, and entrances. The proposed improvements will add 7,073 square feet of new pavement to the existing parking lot along the east side of the property. The Applicants are proposing to reclaim and restripe the 39,717 square feet of existing pavement area within the same footprint. The additional parking and changes to site circulation are primarily the result of the need to address truck circulation (i.e. semi-truck deliveries, trash haulers) and property demands. Site Plan Sheet C2.0 shows the truck turning movement plan. Under the new site plan, the Subject Property will have one driveway access off of Old Snelling Avenue and one driveway access of County Road E. The drive aisles internal on the site vary in width between 16 feet to 24 feet. The Public Works Director/City Engineer has reviewed the proposed site plan with regard to access locations, spacing, and sizing of driveway width. Per City Code, restaurant uses must provide one (1) parking space for every two (2) seats. Individual spaces as shown on the site plan comply with sizing requirements. The Applicants are proposing to add curb and gutter around the perimeter of the entire parking lot. Only a portion of the existing parking lot currently has curb and gutter. Surface runoff will drain to a new storm inlet installed by the County as part of the roadway project at the west perimeter of the parking lot. Land Use Parking Requirement Restaurant Seating Capacity Required # of Parking Spaces Existing # of Parking Spaces Proposed # of Parking Spaces Restaurant 1 for every 2 seats 106 seats 53 67 74 The City’s parking regulations include a provision that snow storage areas shall be provided so that the number of parking spaces is not reduced below the minimum required. The City may initiate proceedings to require that snow be hauled off site if parking and circulation problems related to inadequate snow-removal occur. The civil plans provided by the Applicants do not identify areas for snow storage on the Subject Property. The Planning Commission as part of the application review may request additional information from the Applicants to ensure adequate snow storage areas will be preserved as part of the parking lot improvements or if there are plans to haul snow off-site. Page 6 of 11 B. Parking Setbacks – Legal Nonconforming and Meets Requirements The NB district requires a 20 foot setback for parking areas from public streets and ROW. In addition, off-street parking areas containing four (4) or more parking spaces shall be no closer than five (5) feet from any side or rear lot line. The site plans submitted confirm the existing parking lot is legal nonconforming with a 0 foot setback abutting the right-of-way along Old Snelling Avenue and a 4.67 foot setback from the north property line. For the Site Plan Review there are no changes proposed to existing setbacks on the west and north sides of the property. The new parking lot area is setback 22.5 feet from right-of-way along County Road E and 10.5 feet from the east property line. The proposed new parking lot area complies with setback requirements. Additionally, city code states the area (i.e. setback area) along the street shall be landscaped. Since there are no proposed changes to the existing location of the parking lot adjacent to the roadway, the Applicants were only able to add landscaping islands adjacent to the driveways which will include plantings. C. Trees along Street Frontage – Legal Nonconforming and Flexibility Requested A minimum of one (1) tree shall be provided along the ROW for every 50 feet of public street frontage. The Subject Property has 435 linear feet of road frontage which equates to nine (9) trees. Today, there are four (4) existing trees along the roadway. For the Site Plan Review, the Applicants are proposing to add one (1) additional tree along the roadway in the southeast corner of the site. Their narrative requests review of this requirement as part of the legal nonconformity of the site given a significant amount of the frontage does not provide an area for the addition of trees. The westerly portion of the parking lot will remain unchanged in location so there is no green space in this area. The Applicants will be proposing future freestanding signs adjacent to the both driveway accesses and overhead utility lines also noted to complicate the potential for tree planting areas. It is further stated in their narrative that efforts were made to preserve as many of the existing trees on the site with the proposed layout which would be consistent with the purpose of the NB District and intent of the city code. E. Minimum Caliper Inches – Meets Requirements The Zoning Code requires that a minimum number of caliper inches of trees be provided based on the gross square footage of the building on the property. The restaurant would be considered a single story, and includes 3,713 gross square feet. This requires a minimum of 11.6 caliper inches or six (6) – 2” caliper trees. It should be further noted that city code allows for existing plantings on site at the time of development to be used as credit against the requirements of the landscaping regulations. The Subject Property has 564 caliper inches of existing significant trees. F. Tree Mitigation – Meet Requirements The existing site has 564 caliper inches of significant trees. The Applicants are proposing to remove 85 caliper inches of significant trees. There are three (3) diseased or nuisance trees on the property that are being removed as part of this project. City code allows up to 10% of the significant trees to be removed without replacement. Replacement is not required for trees that are removed, cut, or killed which are identified as diseased or nuisance trees. Tree mitigation is Page 7 of 11 required for every project where the number of caliper inches of significant trees removed over and above the 10%. For every two caliper inches of removed trees, one caliper inch of new trees has to be replaced. Existing Significant Trees 10% removal allowed Proposed Removal Less 10% Subtotal Required Replacement Proposed Replacement 564 caliper inches 56.4 caliper inches 85 caliper inches 28.6 caliper inches 14.3 caliper inches 14.5 caliper inches G. Landscaped Area and Perennials and Shrubberies – Flexibility Requested For any commercial building or parking lot to be expanded by at least 10%, or at least 5,000 square feet, where an approved landscape plan is not on file, the City requires a landscape plan to be submitted. The Applicants as part of their submittal have included a landscaping plan for review. City code requires that 35% of the site be landscaped. The Subject Property is currently at 37.9%. For the Site Plan Review, the landscaped area on the Subject Property would be reduced to 29.6%. Their narrative states that due to the numerous existing trees, additional landscape plantings added as part of this review, and the unique residential building area, it is their perspective that the intent of a larger green area is adequately compensated through the overall landscaping of the site. In the new landscape plan, the Applicants have added 31 shrubs and 104 perennials within the landscaped areas. Most of the plantings are located within the buffer area to boost the existing landscaping. The Zoning Code requires a minimum of 10 percent of the total landscaped area to be covered with perennials and/or shrubbery. The total landscape area on the Subject Property is 20,525 square feet. The proposed plantings total 2,318 square feet of the landscaped area which covers approximately 11%. H. Stormwater Management The City Code requires stormwater management be provided to meet water quantity, infiltration, and water quality requirements. The Applicants have been in contact with the Rice Creek Watershed District on the stormwater design. Based on the scope of work and new pavement square footage, the Rice Creek Watershed District has indicated a stormwater permit will not be required. The Applicants have applied for a Grading and Drainage Permit with the Rice Creek Watershed District. Their narrative states the site will retain parking lot surface drainage to the roadway through the driveways. In addition, the project will incorporate drainage to two (2) new storm structure inlets at the west parking lot curb perimeter. Planning Staff recommends Planning Commission consideration of a condition of Site Plan Review would be subject to approval of the Rice Creek Watershed District as well as comments referenced herein from the Public Works Director/City Engineer including obtaining all necessary permits for the proposed parking lot improvements. Page 8 of 11 1355.04 Procedural Requirements for Specific Applications Section 1355.04, Subd. 5 of the Arden Hills Zoning Code states that a public hearing is not required for Site Plan Review, but neighboring property owners shall be notified. Notification was prepared in accordance with City policy. 1320.08 - Special Requirements for the Neighborhood Business District Section 1320.08, Subd. 4 of the Arden Hills Zoning Code states that at the time of submittal for the Site Plan Review, the Applicant shall identify modifications to the standard zoning requirements otherwise applicable to the site and the reasons why the modifications would be in the public interest and would be consistent with the purpose of the district. The Applicant shall demonstrate to the satisfaction of the City that the proposed uses, lot sizes, height, use mix, location and relationship with other existing and proposed uses are compatible and complementary both internally and with adjacent uses, and meet the intent of the City as expressed in the NB District purpose and the above criteria for allowable uses. Additional Review Building Inspector The Building Inspector has reviewed the plans and has no additional comments at this time. City code states that a building permit shall be required in such case where a commercial, industrial, public or semi-public land use is intending to construct on-site parking containing a site aggregate of more than four (4) spaces or a loading facility that is not a part of, or has prior approval as part of a site plan for which a building permit has been issued. A building permit will be required for the parking lot improvements with the expanded parking lot area. Ramsey County Ramsey County has reviewed the plans and has no additional comments at this time. The Applicants will be required to apply for an access permit for the new access to County Road E with Ramsey County. Rice Creek Watershed District The Rice Creek Watershed District has reviewed the plans. RCWD requests the Applicants submit final construction plans for review after the city review to confirm any changes in impervious surface numbers of the disturbed areas. Public Works Director/City Engineer The Public Works Director/City Engineer reviewed the plans and has the following comments which have been included in the draft recommended conditions of approval: x Grading and Erosion Control Permit Required x Restaurant Pedestrian Trail Connection to be maintained by property owner/business x Provide geotechnical engineer recommendations and/or geotechnical report for review by City Engineer x Provide copy of Ramsey County Right-of-Way permit x Provide statement of estimated quantities (SEQ) sheet and separate items to be funded by Owner and funded by County per the Funded Improvement Sketch plan sheet that was provided to Council at the January 9th 2023 City Council Meeting.

Funded Improvements ARDEN HILLS PLANNING COMMISSION –April 5, 2023 9 Chair Vijums asked if the City was proposing to change the recommended sign sizes or dimensions, or would variances be considered over time. Community Development Director Jagoe described the process that was laid out for the applicant noting a Site Plan Review was before the Planning Commission at this time and not an Ordinance Amendment for the sign code. Chair Vijums questioned if the proposed sign was 60 square feet in size. Kevin Weiss, 4300 Round Lake Road West, reported both signs would be 60 square feet in size, which was identical to the signs at 4200 Round Lake Road. Community Development Director Jagoe explained the signs at 4200 Round Lake Road were approved as part of the Gateway Interstate Building. Commissioner Bjorklund stated he liked that the new sign size would allow the property to be seen from the freeway and would create unification. He indicated he would like to see the site having identification signs installed on the site. Mr. Weiss commented site would have directional signs on the building. Commissioner Wicklund explained he believed the criteria for the sign code has been satisfied and for this reason he would be supporting the request. Chair Vijums stated because similar signage was approved for an adjacent building, he would be supporting this request. Community Development Director Jagoe commented further on how the proposed signage would be consistent between the Delkor buildings. Commissioner Bjorklund recommended a finding be stated to this effect. Chair Vijums suggested this finding read: the proposed signage would conform and unify the existing Delkor signage. Commissioner Bjorklund moved and Commissioner Weber seconded a motion for Findings of Fact Item 9 to read: The proposed signage would conform and unify the existing Delkor signage. The motion carried unanimously (7-0). Commissioner Wicklund moved and Commissioner Collins seconded a motion to recommend approval of Planning Case 23-005 for a Site Plan review at 4300 Round lake Road W and 1987 Gateway Boulevard based on the findings of fact as amended and the submitted plans, as amended by the conditions in the April 5, 2023, report to the Planning Commission.

Commissioner Weber asked who made the determination that the work was repair, replacement, restoration or maintenance. Community Development Director Jagoe stated in preparation of the application she determined the site plan review process was the proper pathway. She explained the parking lot was not being expanded, but rather three-fourths of the parking lot was being reclaimed. She commented further on the flexibility that was allowed through the site plan review process. Commissioner Weber reported this appeared to be a more invasive project because the entire parking lot was being rebuilt. He was curious if this process was avoiding a jam that the property owner would be in given the fact the property was legally non-conforming. Commissioner Blilie stated she did not have big concerns noting this was a well established business in the community that was being forced to do this work, for reasons out of their control by Ramsey County. She reported Lindey’s was not pursuing this project of their own accord, but rather was being forced. Commissioner Weber asked if the City was cost participating in the sidewalk. Community Development Director Jagoe stated the City and the County would be assisting with a portion of the project improvements. She indicated the sidewalk would be part of the roadway project scope. Commissioner Weber believed the City and the County were being extremely generous in covering the costs for this project. He did not believe the City should be paying for the sidewalk to be redone. Further discussion ensued regarding the proposed cost sharing for this project. Commissioner Bjorklund explained he lived near Lindey’s. He asked if the City has received a series of complaints regarding the parking, snow storage or lights from this restaurant.

Commissioner Bjorklund understood that the proposed project would cure and address some of the non-conforming issues on the property. He stated he would be supporting the request noting this business has been in the community for the past 61 years. Commissioner Wicklund requested further information regarding the trees on the property. Community Development Director Jagoe reviewed the size and location of the trees on the site. She commented on the potential of a perimeter fence, but noted the applicant was not committing to the fence at this time. Commissioner Wicklund stated it would be difficult to further screen the property given the location and size of these mature trees. Chair Vijums explained he was not proposing a fence be installed given the fact the residential property to the north was not complaining. He appreciated the fact only two trees would be lost on the site and recommended no additional screening be required. Paul Schrader, SRF Consulting, thanked staff for all of their assistance on this project. He noted he had reviewed the conditions and his only concern was with Condition 5. He clarified for the record there would be no retaining walls on the Lindey’s property, but rather a retaining wall would be installed as part of the roadway project and would be installed by the roadway contractor. He explained this retaining wall would be on a portion of land the County would be purchasing from Lindey’s and the retaining wall would be maintained by the County going forward. For this reason, he requested Condition 5 be removed from consideration. Mark Lindemer, Lindey’s representative, thanked the Commission for considering his request. He reported he has received no feedback from the neighboring properties regarding this project. He stated it was his hope to have some type of screening along the north property line at some point in the future. Commissioner Weber asked if there would be any updates planned for the home on the property. Mr. Lindemer stated general maintenance would be done at this point. Chair Vijums noted the applicant would like Condition 5 struck from the Site Plan Review due to the fact the County would be installing the retaining wall. Commissioner Collins moved and Commissioner Mitchell seconded a motion to strike Condition 5. The motion carried unanimously (7-0).
