Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) BUSINESS FROM FLOOR None. CASE NO. 87-08; Council was referred to Planner's memorandum of 4/10/87 REZONING B-2 to I-2 relative to the request for Rezoning of the property SCHERER LUMBER located at 4947 Highway 10, Scherer Bros. Lumber. Miller advised Council that under current zoning, the existing lumberyard is a non-conforming use. He stated the applicant's reasons for requesting the rezoning were to allow the continued operation, upgrading and expansion of the lumberyard, and to bring the current use into conformance. Council was advised that the Planning Commission had held a public hearing and no one spoke in opposition to the proposed rezoning. Miller referred Council to the Planning Commission minutes of 5/6/87, recommending approval of the rezoning, based on the following: l. Rezoning will accommodate upgrading of the - existing use, which is desirable: 2. The site is relatively isolated. - surrounded on three sides by major arterials and 3, The land across Highways lO and 35W is zoned and developed industrially. ~ Larry Leitshuh of Scherer Lumber was present to answer any Council inquiries. ~ Moved by Hansen, seconded by Peck, that Council approve Case No. 87-08, Rezoning from B-2 to 1-2, 4947 Highway 10, Scherer Brothers Lumber Company. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) CASE NO. 87-14; Council was referred to Planner's memorandum, 4-29-87, REZONING I-2 to B-2 rela~ive to the requested rezoning of a 2.5-acre parcel C. G. REIN COMPANY north of St. Paul Metalcraft on Lexington Avenue. The Planner stated that the applicant is planning to construct a facility that will be smaller in scale but similar to Shannon Square on Lexington Avenue. The Comprehensive Plan designates this area as industrial and the site is currently zoned I-2, a district which does not permit retail uses. Council was advised the Planning Commission held a hearing, at which time there was no public response. Miller referred Council to the Planning Commission minutes (5/6/87), recommending approval. Commission members discussed the following items in support of the proposed rezoning: l. Nature of new development along Lexington Avenue, both in Arden Hills and Shoreview, is retail oriented, 2. The B-2 uses which already exist at Red Fox Road and Lexington, and 3. The less desirable uses which are permitted under I-2. . Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting, May 11, 1987 Page 2 . C.G. REIN (CONT'D) Miller also noted the following items opposing the proposed rezoning: 1. Increased traffic along Lexington Ave., 2. Commercial strip appearance, and 3. Some undesirable uses permitted in the B-2 district. Miller advised that some of the less desirable uses in the B-2 district were permitted by special use permit, allowing some control to be maintained by the Village, and reminded Council that site plan review would be required. The Planner stated the Planning Commission had recommended approval of the rezoning, based on the fact that the proposed rezoning would not be incompatible with other development along Lexington Avenue. William Sikora, architect for C. G. Rein, was present and reviewed the comprehensive plan statement submitted with the application. ,He advised the area can support development of this nature and there would be a combination of service/small retail use in the proposed facility. Counci1member Hansen asked Sikora for information which supported the need for this type of facility. Dennis Cavanaugh, President of C. G. Rein, stated the Arden Plaza Shopping Center is owned and managed by C. G. Rein and has had a 2% vacancy rate over the last 14 years. He further stated that the Shannon Square facility, on Lexington Avenue, is 70% occupied, and it is his opinion there is a demand for this type of facility. -- - Sikora stated that there are no gasoline pumps proposed for this facility; the stores would be more service oriented. Council also discussed the difference between this rezoning request and the proposed rezoning for Ham1ine Avenue and Highway 96; noted this site is not directly adjacent to residential zoning and the location on Lexington Ave.is not incompatible with the surrounding industrial zoning. Miller commented that Planning Commission members had discussed the increased traffic along Lexington Avenue and he noted that this type of facility will generate more traffic, however, traffic would be distributed throughout the day having less impact than concentration at peak hours. Council discussed the definitions of fast-food restaurants versus drive-in business, the separation requirement and also, the possible need for further definition of these uses in the zoning ordinance. Sather moved, seconded by Peck, that Council approve Case No. 87-14, Rezoning from 1-2 to B-2, the Lexington Avenue Colestock site, North of Grey Fox Road, C. G. Rein Company. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) CASE NO. 87-11; Council was referred to Planner's report 4-10-87, MINOR SUBD. /VAR. Planning Commission minutes of 5-6-87, and Board of TRAMM, OAK AVENUE Appeals minutes 4-23-87. The Planner explained the subject property is an odd-shaped parcel .... approximately l.l acres in area. He noted that although the parcel exceeds area requirements, the front lot line width is only 75 ft. and a width variance of - 20 feet is being requested in conjunction with the minor subdivision. Miller explained the primary issue with this proposal is the impact of .... development of the lot on adjacent property. The house to the south has an -- adequate setback and is partially screened by mature shrubs along the shared property line. He identified the building envelope and the steepness of the slope on the front portion on the lot. He indicated the lot will require special treatment to achieve an acceptable driveway grade, and the applicant is working on a house plan which includes a tuck-under garage to reduce the driveway slope. Miller reviewed the Planning commission recommendation for approval, subject to the establishment of a minimum setback to be determined by the adjacent homes. Hansen moved, seconded by Winiecki, that Council approve Case No. 87-11, Minor Subdivision and Lot Width Variance, Lot 1, Block 4 of Shady Oaks Addition, based on the large lot area compensating for the narrow frontage, the flexible building envelope that exists on the proposed lot, and there would be no negative impact on the adjacent properties; furthermore, approval is subject to the front setback line of the proposed home not exceeding the front setback line of the two adjacent homes (the line drawn between the two adjacent homes at their closest point t~ th~ir front). Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) --------- - Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting, May 11, 1987 Page 3 . CASE NO. 87-12; Council was referred to Planner's report (4-10-87), FRONT SETBACK Planning Commission minutes (5-6-87) and Board of VAR., ANDERSON Appeals minutes (4-23-87). Miller reviewed the background of the Minor Subdivision of this parcel, approved by Council in December 1986. The parcel does not have public street frontage and is accessed by private easement. The Planner identified the steep slope at the rear of the Anderson lot and noted that if the applicant maintains the 40 ft. front setback, the rear of the proposed house will be at the base of the slope. The applicant has applied for a 20 ft. variance, to avoid drainage problems and to create a more usable rear yard. Council was referred to a letter from Engineer Barry Peters (4-22-87), stating he has reviewed the request and is comfortable with the variance as proposed. Peters asked the Planner to relate to the Council that the letter should not be considered as a recommendation for or against approval of the requested variance, Miller explained that the property is very isolated from Lake Johanna Blvd. and the two adjacent homes south of the parcel are setback approximately 10-15 ft. from the access easement, which already establishes a lesser setback. Futhermore, Miller advised that at the time Council approved the subdivision of .- these two parcels, he had commented that the lots would be buildable without ---- variances, however, the applicant has chosen to request the variance to create a more usable rear yard and to cause less disruption to the rear slope of the property. Council discussed if the property owners to the south of the parcel would be affected by drainage problems, Clerk Aministrator adVised that any improvements of the access easement must be approved by the Engineer. Planner commented that approval of the requested variance would not relieve the property owner of his responsibility not to create further drainage problems, as stipulated in the conditions of approval of the minor subdivision. There was discussion relative to construction of the home on the parcel without the requested variance. Mark Anderson, applicant, adVised that an architect designed the home so that it would not create further drainage problems for the adjacent properties to the south. Anderson advised he is working with the Barry Peters on the improvement of the access easement and has discussed the creation of a culvert to divert water from the southerly lots. He noted that all the conditions stipulated in the minor subdivision approval have been accomplished, with the exception of the access easement improvement. Moved by Hansen, seconded by Sather, that Council approve Case No. 87-12; Front Setback Variance, on the basis of the hardship .... imposed by the steep rear slope of the land, the parcel is located on a private ... roadway that is isolated from the main street, and that other homes south of this site are not in compliance with current setback requirements. Motion carried. (Hansen, Sather, Peck, Winiecki voting in favor, Woodburn opposed) - (4-l) -- CASE NO. 87-15; Planner Miller reviewed his report of 4-29-87, and SITE PLAN REVIEW referred Council to Planning Commission minutes of & VAR, ALPO FOODS 5-6-87. The Planner stated the lot is currently zoned I-l and adjacent to a residential development, therefore, a 75 ft. setback is required. Since the Planning CommiSSion meeting he had discovered a zoning map, which was in effect prior to the State releasing the land proposed for Highway 51, that shows the boundary line for the zoning district along the rear property line for Alpo Pet Foods. After discussion with the Zoning Administrator, it was determined that Alpo had not acquired any of the land released by the State and, therefore a variance was necessary, Miller pointed out that since the variance was identified after the Board of Appeals held their meeting, Council may consider referring the variance to the Board of Appeals for review and recommendation back to Council. - Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting, May 11, 1987 Page 4 . ALPO (CONT'D) The Planner explained the proposed construction of the addition to the A1po building, which will house a tank for storage of liquid tallow. The applicant had advised Miller that the tank will be sealed and should not emit any additional odor. Council discussed neighborhood complaints relative to odor emission; the Zoning Administrator Iago had received one complaint prior to the Planning meeting and the Mrs. Zehm, former Zoning Administrator had indicated she received several complaints over the years she was employed. There was also discussion of screeening at the northwest border of the property and the Parks Director explained that A1po personnel had planted 30-50 trees along that property line on Arbor Day. Buckley noted that the evergreens were planted in double rows and should mature within a few years. Council had questions relative to the processing and storage of the liquid tallow and determined they needed more information from a company representative. Hansen moved, seconded by Peck, that Council table Case No. 87-15, to the next regular Council meeting on May 26, 1987, and refer the variance request to the Board of Appeals for their review and recommendation; furthermore, Council requested a representative of Alpo Pet Foods be contacted by staff and requested to appear before the Council at their May 26th meeting to discuss the methods of tallow processing and storage, odor emission from the plant and screening at the rear property line. Motion carried. (5-0) -- -- CASE NO. 87-10; Planner Miller reviewed his report and referred Council SETBACK VAR. , to Planning Commission minutes of 5-6-87 and Board of 1305 TILLER LN. Appeals minutes of 4-23-87. Planning Commission and Board of Appeals recommended denial of the request, based on the inability of both boards to identify a hardship and approval of the request may establish a new setback line by precident. Miller explained the interior floor plan of the home, problems with roof lines in the rear of the home, and eagerness to eliminate the steep driveway prompted the applicant to consider the expansion from the front of the home rather than the rear. Council was referred to the Planning Commission minutes of May 6, which listed the reasons for the applicant's request. After discussion, Council suggested the applicant be encouraged to remOve the two condemned fireplaces in the home and lower the driveway elevation, for their safety, even if approval is not granted. Moved by Hansen, seconded by Peck, that Council deny Case No. 87-10; Front Setback Variance, 1305 Tiller Lane, rationale for denial being there is no unique identifiable hardship, granted the variance may establish a new setback line by precident and other options for expansion could be explored by the applicant. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) REPORT OF PARKS DIRECTOR - 1987 SUMMER PROGRAM Council was referred to the 1987 Proposed Summer -- Program Schedule submitted by Buckley. Hansen moved, seconded by Sather, that Council approve the 1987 Summer Program Proposal as submitted by Parks Director John Buckley. - Motion carried unanimously. (5-0 ) - APPROVE 1987 SUMMER Council was referred to Buckley's memorandum (5-6-87), PLAYGROUND PERSONNEL relative to hiring 1987 Summer Playground personnel. Moved by Hansen, seconded by Peck, that Council approve the 1987 Summer Playground personnel, as outlined in the Parks Director's memorandum. Motion carried ~nanimously.

HAMLINE AVENUE - The landscaping, trees and schurbs, are in place. Sodding and the wear course of blacktop need to be completed, The contractor advised that they must wait 7 days before they can stripe the road; due to the oil in the blacktop.

KEITHSON DRIVE - All the utilities are in place, as well as gravel and curb and gutter. The blacktop will be completed sometime in August. Raddatz has had discussions with a representative from the State Hwy, Dept., regarding the right hand turn lane onto Hwy. 96. Council discussed the issuance of an - occupancy permit before a hardtop surface is placed on Keithson. Raddatz stated ~ there is 2 ft. of sand under the road and with the gravel there may not be problems (potholes, etc.) Sather questioned that the road would be under Village jurisdiction as it is being constructed by the developer. Council requested the Clerk Administrator review past policy on the issuance of occupancy permits prior to hardtop surfaces in residential areas. WATER TOWER - There are six sections of the water tower now in place. The bowl section will be welded after two inspections have been made. The inspections are done by two different persons, with an x-ray machine. The condensation ceiling is also being installed. The tower will be 141 ft. to the 1,000,000 gallon mark; 150 ft. to the top. When the tower is completed, the Village will landscape and plant tress around the base; evergreens, hardwoods and sod. The project. thus far, is on schedule. Councilmember Winiecki asked if the landscaping removed from the Lift Station #10 could be replanted at the water tower. Raddatz advised personnel has moved some Op1antings and will continue as both projects progress. MUD JACKING CURBS - The mud jacking is completed. The work will be checked in the fall to determine if it has stayed in place. REPLACEMENT OF ALARM BOARD - The transistors on the circuit board that control the pumps and alarms for the lift stations were damaged by a power surge.

PLAN Council was referred to Raddatz's memorandum, 5-7-87, ... requesting authorization for SEH and Raddatz to begin .. the Pavement Management study. He advised that $10,000.00 had been budgeted in the Street portion of the budget. under Engineerins Fees, for this project. Council requested that SEH compile a cost breakdown of project project costs - for use in compiling the 1988 budget. ..... Sather moved. seconded by Peck, that Council authorize the Public Works Supervisor and Short Elliot Hendrickson to begin the Pavement Management Study. Motion carried unanimously: (5-0) LIC & PERMIT FEES Council was referred to Finance Committee minutes of April 23rd, relative to the subcommittee recommendations for increasing license and permit fees. The Committee had recommended that the fees be reviewed every two years. A survey of five surrounding communities was completed, in an effort to maintain equity, and also the Committee determined the fees should more closely reflect the costs of regulation and administration of the licenses and permits. Councilmember WIniecki suggested the permit fee for the rendering plant be increased from $600 to $630, to cover the cost of inspection of the plant. Mayor Woodburn noted that the General Contractors, Excavators, Plumbing and Contractors license fees would require an Ordinance amendment; suggested the Attorney be requested to draft the amendment. ----.- _.--..,- Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting, May 11, 1987 Page 6 . FEES (CONT'D) Councilmember Sather questioned the fees for restaurant and cafe licenses, as there are not health inspections provided. The Clerk Administrator advised that the fee covers the administrative costs for issuing the license; when a health complaint is received by the Village, the appropriate State agency is called for an inspection and may request Dr. Dunn, our health inspector, also inspect the premises. Counci1member Peck commented that the proposed increases in the contractors and rubbish haulers licenses will more than likely be passed onto the residents of the Village. He questioned why the dog licenses were not issued on a life-time bas is . Mayor Woodburn explained that a rabies vaccination is required every two years and proof of vaccination must be shown when renewing the dog license. Moved by Hansen, seconded by Woodburn, that Council approve the proposed permit and license fee increases, excluding the Excavators, Plumbers and Contractors, as outlined in the Finance Committee minutes of 4-23-87. Winiecki moved, seconded by Peck, that the motion be amended to include the Rendering Plant permit fee increase from $600.00 to $630.00, to cover inspection costs. - Amendment to motion carried. (5-0) - Original motion as amended carried. (5-0) Council requested the Clerk Administrator contact the Attorney to determine if the Rendering Plant fee increase requires an Ordinance amendment. CONTRACTORS LICENSE Clerk Administrator Morrison inquired if Council concurred with her suggestion to request the Attorney to draft an Ordinance revision to include licensing of General Contractors, Excavators and Plumbers; she offered to work with Lynden to draft the revision for the next regular Council meeting. Council commented that Plumbers and Electricians are licensed by the State and would be excluded. Moved by Hansen, seconded by Peck, that Council directs the Clerk Administrator and Attorney to review current fees and draft an Ordinance revision relative to General Contractors. Excavators, Plumbers, Heating Contractors, and Rubbish Haulers licenses. Motion carried. (5-0) UTILITY RATE Council was referred to Finance Committee minutes INCREASE 4-23-87, relative to increasing utility rates. The last increase for sewer utility was in 1981 and the Committee recommends a 15% increase, effective July 1st; this increase is expected to cover costs through 1989. Council discussed the charges for sewer utility to non-profit organizations. - Morrison adVised the Attorney informed her the Village cannot charge a higher ., fee to non-profit organizations nor a lower fee. Council questioned the formula for commercial accounts and the reference to sewer utility rate increases providing a "minimal amount of cushion". ..... .... After discussion, Council concurred that they would like to clarify the rcommendations of the Finance Committee and requested a representative of the Committee be present at the next regular Council meeting of May 26th. OTHER BUSINESS PARKING AT MOUNDS Counci1member Peck discussed the parking situation at VIEW HIGH SCHOOL in the area of Mounds View High School. He suggested the Clerk Administrator be given authorization to post the no-parking signs when deemed necessary, rather than review each posting with the Council. Council discussed the placement of signs at access roads only; removal of signs during the summer months. Morrison advised that Commander Bergeron stated there may be difficulty prosecuting offenders if the signs are removed and replaced. Mayor Woodburn noted the prosecuting Attorney saw no problem with prosecuting offenders. --.-- -' . Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting, May II, 1987 Page 7 . PARKING (CONT'D) Councimember Hansen commented that she had discussed the parking situation with the School Board; the response was that it is a City problem. Council suggested urging residents to submit a petition to the School Board requesting resolution of the parking situation. After discussion, Council consensus was to approval individual street postings until the end of this year and review the parking situation prior to the beginning of school next fall. Peck moved, seconded by Sather, that Council ratify the posting of no parking signs on Crystal Avenue and Del1view. Motion carried unanimously.

Code Books, etc. Council suggested the clarification be included, such as "annual fee" or "postage included", on the final draft. Council questioned if copies would still be provided free of charge to County Board Chairman, Ramsey County Sheriffs Department, etc., and if the increase reflects what surrounding communities charge. Morrison stated the copies would still be provided free of charge to persons connected with the operation of the Village; she noted the fees reflect what metro area communities are charging for these services. Hansen moved, seconded by Winiecki, that Council accept the miscellaneous fee increase, effective July 1, 1987, as proposed by the Clerk Administrator in her informational memorandum (5-8-87). Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) DRAINAGE PROBLEM Mayor Woodburn referred Council to a letter dated 1270 WYNRIDGE 5-7-87, relative to the drainage problem on Wynridge caused by improper grading. Clerk Administrator commented that she has discussed the matter with the Building Inspector who advised the owner of the property has the necessary equipment to correct the problem; Squires has contacted the owner and stated he would check the area to determine if the grading has been corrected. ..... Morrison suggested sending a certified letter to the owner defining what needs ... to be done and setting a date for completion of the project. Council discussed what the basis for enforcement would be and recommended Morrison review the matter with the Attorney, Building Inspector and Public ..... Works Supervisor to determine responsibility for correction of the problem. ... KARTH LAKE CIRCLE Mayor Woodburn referred Council to a letter regarding a hedge on Karth Lake Circle and Hamline Ave., which hinders motorists visibility; also mentioned was the poor striping on Ham1ine Ave. Council instructed the Public Works Supervisor to review both items and report to Council.

Horrison, Clerk Administrator Re: Informational Items --..---------------------------------------------------------------------- 1. LexinRton Avenue BridRe: HnDOT has advised that the southeast ramp, Lexington and 694, will be closed far ten days; and, that the northeast ramp will be closed (around May 18 or 19) after the southeast ramp is re-opened. Signs to this effect have been posted and detour routes set. 2. 1-35 Construction: HnDOT will be working on 1-35 this summer. Attached for your information is an excerpt of their proposed construction timetable. Additional information is on file should you desire it. 3. McGuire's Inn: I was informed by Hal Pollock (Hanager, McGuire's) last Wednesday (May 6), and subsequently spoke with owner Lou Pazos, that the Special Operations Investigative Division of the Ramsey County Sheriff's Office had seized their "Fun 21 Amusement Device" and detained the dealer, under a warrant process, claiming illegal I gambling was being conducted on the premises. Mayor Woodburn and I have followed up on this, and have spoken with the investigative officers, Commander Bergeron and Attorney Filla about this matter. As it is still under investigation, all parties involved have requested all details and information on this be kept confidential. The Hayor and/or I would be happy to discuss this with you further - on the phone or before the meeting. (This machine is the one approved by Council at the meeting of 2/9/87 with McGuire's assurance that no prizes or monetary compensation was to be exchanged). 4. ParkinR. Mounds View HiRh School: We are still receiving several calls per week about problems with student par~ing on residential streets. We have posted Janet Court and Fairview up t Gramsie; we , have also posted Crystal, to Dellview. Although Council had not specifically authorized Crystal, the parking problem was significant. Dellview now has the same problem. Bob and I would like to recommend that the Council give approval to post any street within this general area. We could then proceed with posting as the situations emerge. We will need to order additional signs. (Costs for the first 25 signs and posts was $408.81.) 5. BudRet Calendar: Please note a proposed budget calendar, as recommended by Charlotte, has been submitted with your packet. . 6. Miscellaneous CharRes: Through review with Shirley and Cathy of some ~ of our current charges for miscellaneous administrative functions, I am recommending some increases, based an time, overhead and comparable - , . -. "- costs in other cities. I believe generally in the past charges have e been instigated without Council approval; however, as some of the recommendations are higher than usual, I am requesting your input. 7. Janitorial Service: Steve Zehm, who has been cleaning the Village Hall for several years, has decided to discontinue his service with the City. An employee in our Public Works Department has expressed interest in the position; if he does not continue this interest, we will advertise for a mature person. Steve had been hired to work four hours each weekend, at $6.95 per hour. I ... I ViffaQe o-f AWR/HI ~rRPA 1450 W. HIGHWAY 96. ARDEN HILLS.

Councilmember Gary Peck arrived at 7:35 p.m, Also present were Attorney James Lynden, Planner Orlyn Miller, Barry Peters of Short-Elliott-Hendrickson, Public Works Supervisor Robert Raddatz, Clerk Administrator Patricia Morrison and Deputy Clerk Catherine Iago. APPROVE MINUTES Moved by Sather, seconded by Winiecki, that Council approve the Minutes of the April 13, 1987, Regular Council meeting as submitted, Motion carried unanimously. (4-0) BUSINESS FROM FLOOR None. CASE #87-09: TWO VAR. Council was referred to Planning Commission minutes FRONT/SIDE SETBACKS (4/1/87), recommending approval of the two variances 3290 SANDEEN ROAD as requested. Council also received an extract of the Board of Appeals minutes of 4/23/87, recommending approval of the 5 ft. Front Yard Setback Variance and denial of the 5 ft. Side Yard Setback Variance. . Planner Miller reviewed the applicant's plans for removing the existing home and constructing a new home on the property. Candi McCloskey, applicant, explained that the architect had requested the 5 ft. side yard setback to increase the size of an interior room in the new home. She further advised that the property has a 10 ft. easement on the south side that she was not previously aware of. The Planner noted that the Planning Commission members were very impressed with the architectural design for the new home on this parcel. Council discussed the diagonal direction of the land as it extends back to the lake; it was determined that the side yard variance was not necessary. Council strongly encouraged the homeowner not to encroach any further, in either direction, on the side yards. Council commended the Board of Appeals for their analysis of the site. Sather moved, seconded by Peck, that Council approve the 5 ft. Front Yard Setback Variance, Case No. 87-09, 3290 Sandeen Road, based on a justifiable hardship of the slope of the land away from the street. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) CASE #87-04: Planner Miller briefly reviewed the rezoning request REZONING, HWY 96 and referred Council to the Planning Commission minutes . AND RAMLINE AVE. of 3/4/87. He noted that the applicant's comprehensive plan statement should be expanded upon; also that the Planning Commission was favorably impressed with the architectural design of the proposal, however, they were concerned with the retail uses proposed as well as the blanket rezoning. James Stolpestad, co-owner of the property, distributed a letter dated 4/27/87 to the Councilmembers and a petition from residents supporting the proposed project. He stated that the owners of the property are proposing the "lessor of two eVils"; his opinion was that an office building would not be as attractive, could be a higher elevation. Stolpestad advised he recognizes the legitimate concerns of the neighbors and proposed to file a restrictive covenant against the land to limit the scope of the B-2 zoning classification. He requested that the City Attorney and Planner be authorized to work out such an agreement with the developer, . Mike Scott, President of Jackson-Scott Associates, reviewed the site plan and building uses. Steve Hauge, President of Hauge and Company, reviewed the building design, building materials and landscape plan. He noted that the roof would be a "penthouse" design, enclosing the rooftop mechanical equipment. Hauge stated that they currently anticipate no neon signage and have tried to keep the buildings in pace with the residential surrounding area. i - ---- . Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting, April 27, 1987 Page 2 REZONING (CONT'D) Council concerns and discussion were as follows: 1. Trash containment, 2. Need for this type of center, and 3. Traffic problems. Mike Scott advised the proposed trash containment would include two locations, behind the buildings, and both would be enclosed on two sides. He also stated that trash could be contained in a locked totally enclosed area, if the residents in the area would find that more acceptable. Scott noted the convenience center distributes traffic throughout the day versus a service-oriented center which concentrates traffic at peak hours. Diane Phillippi, 1442 Arden View Drive, spoke in opposition to the proposed rezoning. It was her opinion the center would not blend with the residential area, did not see a need for the center and was not in favor of the current B-1 zoning of the parcel. Kathy Brown, 1391 Arden View Drive, referred Council to the petition from area residents, dated 2/25/87, opposing the rezoning for the following reasons: 1. Uses permitted in B-2 are incompatible with the adjacent residential areas. 2. Increased Traffic will add to the congestion on the two roads and at . their intersection. 3. Specific plans are not part of this proposal. A conceptual change by the current developer or a change of developers could result in usage much different from that which is implied in the application, The City Attorney reviewed his letter to the Council (3-30-87), relative to conditional rezoning. He explained that the City of Arden Hills had not engaged in the practice of conditional rezoning in the past and suggested the Council continue this practice. He advised it is justifiable for the Council to uphold past policy. Lynden noted for Council the uses permitted in the B-2 zoning district, as well as specially permitted uses and reviewed Council actions that could be taken at this time. Vicki Knutson, 1403 Arden View Drive, spoke in opposition; stating concern relative to: trash confinement, hours of operation for retail stores, youths congregating, and did not see need for this type of center. Winiecki questioned the holding pond located on the site, Steve Hauge explained that approval from Rice Creek Watershed and the State of Minnesota had been received prior to construction of the holding pond. Sather advised he had received numerous calls from citizens opposing the proposed rezoning, however, none had stated what they would like to have constructed at that location. He stated he would favor the traffic distribution . throughout the entire day, rather than at peak hours. Hansen stated the proposed building plan is attractive, however, it was her opinion there was not a need for this type of center. She also advised she was uncomfortable with spot rezoning. Winiecki commented that the developer has shown sensitivity to the neighborhood with the building design and has tried to address all neighborhood concerns. Peck noted the building design is attractive and questioned if the area residents were aware of what could be developed at that location. Judy Sellers, 1457 Arden View Drive, stated that the school bus stops at Hamline and Hwy. 96, which would contribute. to the traffic congestion. Wanda Nelson, 4487 Arden View Court, spoke in favor of the proposed rezoning; . it was her opinion the building plan is good and she would support it. Planner Miller, for clarification purposes, advised the Planning Commission recommendation was for denial of the rezoning with direction given to the applicant to pursue a PUD concept. He noted the intent was to direct the applicant to pursue a process that would allow some restrictions which would maintain control for the City, as well as the residents of the area. ----- ..- . Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting, April 27, 1987 Page 3 REZONING (CONT'D) Hansen moved, seconded by Peck, that Council deny Case No. 87-04, Rezoning from B-1 to B-2, Hamline Avenue and Highway 96, rationale for denial as follows: not proven sufficient need for a convenience/retail operation in the area, concerned about litter, noise, increased traffic, level of on-sight activity, type and quality of lighting, incompatibility with residential area and Arden Hills comprehensive plan: be it further noted that Council is opposed to the concept of spot zoning and conditional zoning and has determined that approval may be a precedent setting action. Motion carried. (Hansen, Peck, Woodburn voting in favor; Winiecki and Sather opposed) (3-2). GLENVIEW AVE. Council was referred to Change Order #5, relative to STORM SEW. RPT. the Glenview Avenue Storm reconstruction being added to the contract for Edgewater Estates. Barry Peters reported that C.W. Houle has estimated the construction costs at $19,980.50. Peters estimate, for an independent project, at an earlier Council meeting ~as $23,800.00. Council was advised the Clerk Administrator had suggested the monies could be . taken from the PIR Fund. There was discussion relative to placing this item in the 1989 Budget. Mrs. Caniff, 3946 Glenview Ave., briefly explained the problems she has been experiencing and stated her opinion is that the problems are caused because of the small storm sewer placed in the area by the City. She feels it is the City's responsibility to provide proper drainage and correct the problem. Councilmember Hansen asked why Caniff's had built their home in the area if they were aware of the problem. Hansen moved, seconded by Peck, that Council include the reconstruction of the Glenview Avenue Storm Sewer in the 1988 Budget for the City of Arden Hills, and that this item be included under the Public Works Fund or Revolving Fund. In discussion, Council questioned if there were funds available for the project this year. Public Works Supervisor Raddatz advised he and Barry Peters had discussed the possibility of holding off the seal-coating projects for 1987 until the Pavement Management Plan results are received. He explained the funds budgeted for seal-coating in 1987 would be available if Council deems the Glenview project necessary this year. Council asked if there are any streets in need of seal coating this year and if the remaining funds would cover the cost of those streets. . Raddatz advised there are streets in need of seal coating and the remaining funds should cover the cost of the project. Peck moved, seconded by Sather, to amend the motion to read as follows: that the project for the reconstruction of the Glenview Avenue Storm Sewer be completed in 1987, with funds to be expended from the 1987 Seal Coating Budget. Amendment to motion carried unanimously. (5-0) Original motion as amended carried unanimously. (5-0) RES. NO. 87-20; Council was referred to the final draft of the Joint GLENHILL ROAD Powers Agreement with the City of Roseville for the RECONSTRUCTION Glenhill Road reconstruction, and the resolution approving plans and specification, ordering . advertisement for bids and accepting the bid.

NO. 87-21; Planner Miller briefly reviewed his investigation of TAX FORFEITED PROP. the parcel identified as Outlot A, Briarknoll Plat Two, in the City of Arden Hills. He noted that the property is basically low-land, used as a drainage area, and the entire parcel is covered by drainage and utility easements. Rice Creek Watershed recommended the City retain the easement; they may not have the power to retain such easements. Miller advised that NSP also retains an easement on one corner of the property. After discussion, Council consensus was to forfeit the land, Moved by Hansen, seconded by Sather, that Council approve Resolution No. 87-21, RESOLUTION RELATING TO FORFEITED LAND AND LAND CLASSIFICATION. Motion carried unanimously, (5-0) NORTH SUB. YOUTH Mayor Woodburn introduced David Wilmes, Executive SERVICES REPORT Director, and George Marks, Board Chairman of the North Suburban Youth Services Bureau. Wilmes provided Councilmembers with the activity report from last quarter and the 1986 Annual Report. He summarized current programs, recent funding problems and projected goals. Wilmes reviewed the Senior Chore Program, which has . become a model for other Metro area cities. He stated he is leaving the Youth Service Bureau with mixed feelings and has enjoyed working with the Village. George Marks, Board Chairman, thanked the Council for their support of the Youth Services Bureau and commended former Councilmember Dale Hicks for his many contributions, Marks introduced Kay Andrews, who will serve as Wilmes' successor. Councilmember Hansen suggested that the Bureau continue to expand it's advertisement of the programs. REPORT OF CABLE Council was referred to the minutes of the Cable COMM. CHAIRMAN Committee Meeting (4-9-87). Chairman Bill Bauer explained the current voting procedures are based on population (one vote per 5,000 population), and the NSCC is reviewing a procedure whereby proportionate representation would be based on the number of subscribers or franchise fees. He stated any change would have little effect on Arden Hills, since we now have 6.457. of the vote and with proportionate revenue we would receive 6.397.. Bauer advised that if a change occurs, it will require Council approval and he asked for Council direction. After discussion, Council consensus was that the cities that are most impacted by the change should make the decision. Bauer advised that the next major issue discussed by the Cable Commission would . be public access. REQ. FOR NO PKING. Council was referred to the Public Safety/Works SO. SIDE CO. RD. E Committee Meeting (4-16-87), re: the request for no parking on the south side of County Road E, from Lake Johanna Blvd., to the high voltage power lines. Councilmember Hansen reported that she had checked the number of parking spaces with Deputy Herbst and found there were over 200 spaces (not including the boat trailer parking); at 2 or 3 persons per car there would be 400-600 people using the beach. She cited swimming safety, safety of persons walking to the beach, and erosion of the ditches in the area as factors for approving the no parking request. Ken Lausen at Ramsey County advised he would prefer to have all County Roads posted no parking. Hansen also discussed with Lausen the concept of . charging fees for for lake usage; the County advised if the Village wants to charge fees they can take over the maintenance of the park. In discussions with New Brighton City Manager, this will be the first year they will charge for usage of the park; Hansen noted this may increase the number of persons using Lake Johanna. Hansen stated the ditch erosion damage is mostly from the high voltage lines to New Brighton Road and it would be more practical and effective to restrict the parking past the high voltage lines; also for enforcement purposes. Hansen moved. seconded by Winiecki, that Council request Ramsey County to restrict parking on the south side of County Road E from take Johmma BClIlovard to New Brighton Road. Motion carried unanimously. (';-0) . . Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting, April 27, 1987 Page 5 Mayor Woodburn and Public Works Supervisor discussed County Road D parking, by Lake Johanna Park, posting no parking signs early this year before the problems begin. CHARITABLE Council was referred to sample Ordinances from various GAMBL. ORD. communities and the letter from Attorney Lynden (3-27-87) , relative to enactment of a Charitable Gambling Ordinance for the Village. Council discussed if there is a need for an Ordinance, what aspects would be regulated and guidelines to be given to the Attorney for drafting the ordinance. Councilmember Sather noted the State Legislators have rescinded some freedoms these types of operations are allowed; he asked for items Council proposed for inclusion in the ordinance. In discussion, Council cited the following regulatory items for inclusion in the ordinance: - Number of Bingo Occasions. . - Number of Charities operating at a singular facility. - Hours of Operation. - Phase Out of the operation over a reasonable time period. - Percentage of return to Community. - Limiting perimeters of where Charities are located. Winiecki suggested the Attorney draft an ordinance including all the above and then Council could discuss each regulatory item at that time. Attorney Lynden advised he could meet with the Clerk Administrator and draft an ordinance for Council review which includes the items mentioned above. SNOWMOBILE ORD. Mayor Woodburn explained he had discussed with the Attorney the concerns of the Council, relative to all terrain vehicles operating in the winter months and definition of where these vehicles could operate. After discussion it was noted that due to the fact the ground would be frozen and the vehicles would not damage the parkway; Lynden also defined "roadway" for the Councilmembers. After discussion, Council consensus was to include the following items and language in the revised draft of the Snowmobile Ordinance: 1. Hours of Operation, Sec. 26.42, should be 10:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m., to make Ordinance more compatible with neighboring cities. 2, Equipment should include a Deadman's Throttle, unless covered by State law, should be included. . 3. Exempting use of these vehicles by governmental agencies in pursuit of their duties or during emergency use in adverse weather. 4. Section 26.25(a) Change language to read "An off-road vehicle", rather than "A three-wheel vehicle. CONDEMNATION RPT. The Attorney advised that the property owner's attorney NAEGELE PROPERTY had requested the hearing, scheduled for February, be postponed; to date the hearing has not been rescheduled. Lynden also advised he had talked with the appraiser. the Mayor and the Engineer; the appraiser is willing to reduce the amount allocated for the temporary easements if the Engineer determines the length of time for temporary easements retention could be reduced to 6 months rather than one year. Barry Peters agreed that the City could reduce the time of the temporary easement to 6 months. . Lynden reported that he wou~d contact the property owner's attorney, by the end of this week, to discuss the possibility of a settlement of this case, for review by Council. ASSMT. LETTER Council was referred to letter from Attorney, dated 4/27/87, relative to apportionment of assessment for Council review, as possible assessment policy for the Round Lake project.. REQ. FOR STREET Council was referred to PS/W Committee meeting minutes LT. PRIOR/JERROLD (4/16/87) , recommending denial of the request based on the facts that a light at this junction is not on the master street lighting plan and the effect of lighting in reducing vandalism and loitering is questionable, ------~-- ------- . . Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting, April 27, 1987 Page 6 ST. LIGHT (CONT'D) Hansen moved, seconded by Peck, that Council supports the Public Safety/Works Committee recommendation for denial of the street light request, at the intersection of Prior and Jerrold, based on the rationale listed in the Committee Minutes of 4-16-87 and, furthermore, that Council recommends the residents pursue the option of a private security light at that location. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) HOUSE NUMBERING Council was referred to PS/W Committee Minutes (4-16-87) , recommending the preparation of "door hangers" explaining the importance of visible house numbers and the plan for distribution of all Arden Hills residents whose homes are inadequately identified. Hansen moved, seconded by Peck, that Council direct the Public Safety/Works Conunittee and Administrative staff to prepare the "door hangers" explaining the importance of visible house numbers. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) FIRE STATION 1/4 Council was referred to PS/W Committee minutes (4-16-87), relative to the extent of participation with Shoreview in Fire Station #4. Committee consensus was that Arden Hills Council consider participating only in the pruchase of an . aerial truck and consider purchasing a parcel of land in the north end of Arden Hills (preferably next to the Public Works Building) for use as a future fire station. It was noted that the Committee determined the purchase of land essential should Shoreview elect to have its own fire department. REPORT ON ISO RATING Paul Malone reviewed for Council the effect of ISO Insurance Ratings on the City insurance premiums. He explained how he had attempted to determine justification of expenditures for new equipment, in terms of benefits. Essentially the ISO rating system runs from one to ten; one being the best rating, ten the worst. He explained how the point ratings affected commercial properties insurance premiums; noting that the amount of money saved by decreasing the ISO rating is not substantial. Malone advised that the ISO rating for the City was originally done in 1975 and updated in 1980, using the 1975 data and brought into the current rating system. There are three classification categories, our rating was 6 (49.37 total points). The categories are: 1. Alarms - of a possible 10 pts.; we received 4 pts., 2. Fire Department - 50 pts. available; we received 19.36. 3. Water - 40 pts, available; we received 34.87. Malone pointed out that additional points could be gained on improvements that have already been made since 1975. He advised that he and the Fire Chief were going to compile a current point rating using up-to-date information. Council was referred to a diagram which displayed the radius of coverage from each of the proposed fire station locations. Malone noted the difference in . coverage for the Village with a centrally located station versus the Island Lake Site. Councilmembers conunended Malone on his presentation and thanked him for the information. REPORT OF PUBLIC WORKS SUPERVISOR REQ. WATERMAIN Council was referred to Raddatz's memorandum (4-24-87) EXTENSION HWY 10 requesting the City extend the watermain on property owned by him. Raddatz noted that he had discussed the matter with the Engineer, who would draw up plans, under the City's guidelines, and inspect the project. The project costs ,would be reimbursed by Raddatz. Council suggested that Raddatz submit a development agreement for review by the . City Attorney and return to, Council for final approval. Hansen moved, seconded by Peck, that Council approve the request for a watermain extension on Old Highway 10, as outlined in the memorandum from Public Works Supervisor dated 4-24-87, authorize plans and specifications be drawn, and furthermore, that Raddatz submit a development agreement for review by the City Attorney. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0). . . Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting, April 27, 1987 Page 7 PURCHASE TRUCK Council was referred to memorandum from Raddatz dated PUBLIC WORKS 4-27-87, re: payment for truck delivered from Boyer Ford. Public Works Supervisor noted that the box and plow will have to be installed. Hansen moved, seconded by Winiecki, that Council ~prove the payment of $33,199.75 for the Public Works Truck. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) REPLACE NO PKING. Councilmember Hansen requested Raddatz replace the no SIGNS AT LIFT STA. parking signs at lift station on County Road E and Lake Boulevard. SELECT ARCHITECT Council was referred to Clerk Administrator's FOR FIRE STA. #4 memorandum (4-9-87), relative to the selection of the architect for Fire Station #4. Hansen moved, seconded by Winiecki, that the Arden Hills Co~ncil hereby authorizes the architectural firm of BWBR to commence preparation of the site plan and preliminary sketches for Fire Station #4, in accordance with the recommendation of the Station 4 Committee, at their meeting . of 4/4/87. In discussion, Councilmember Peck asked if Council consensus was for Arden Hills to continue with the Joint Powers Agreement for Station #4 with Shoreview. He noted the recommendation in the PS/W Committee minutes of 4/16/87 relative to extent of participation. Councilmember Hansen suggested Council explore the legal ramifications of terminating the agreement. Councilmember Winiecki asked what the financial ramifications of terminating the agreement would be. Mayor Woodburn stated it is his opinion there would be not punitive damages awarded, therefore, the Village could not be sued for anymore money that costs to date. He suggested a legal opinion be requested from the Attorney. Winiecki suggested further evaluation may be necessary; noting the fire coverage radius factor as displayed by Paul Malone's presentation clearly displayed the need for a more centrally located station. Hansen explained the location of the station was also determined by availability of recruitment of firefighters, land availability and an effort to keep the LJVFD unified. She reported that she has received citizen input opposing the Island Lake Site. . Council discussed the proposed size of the station, the apparatus and the location. There was discussion relative to budgeting for a Fire Station in Arden Hills, the current level of fire protection, and level of participation in other stations, Sather moved, seconded by Peck, that Council temporarily table the motion on the floor, relative to selection of architect for Fire Station #4, until later this evening. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) JOINT POWERS Council discussed the negotiations for Fire Station #4 AGREEMENT FOR and Council consensus was that a decision should be FIRE STA. #4 made to continue with the agreement or terminate it. . Sather noted there is a provision in the the Joint Powers agreement for withdrawal; suggested this may be the time to withdraw and consider another plan. He reviewed the history of the joint venture with Shoreview. It was his opinion that the majority of the Council was uncertain if Arden Hills should continue in the Joint Powers agreement; he would still support the concept. Councilmembers Peck and Winiecki agreed. Hansen commented that the PS/W Committee had recommended remaining in the joint venture; she also expressed concern relative to maintaining the unity of the LJVFD and recruitment problems. . . Minutes of the Regular Council Meeting, April 27, 1987 Page 8 FIRE STA. 114 Peck moved, seconded by Winiecki, that the Arden Hills (CONT'D) Council terminate the Contract with the City of Shoreview for Fire Station #4 and negate the Joint Powers Agreement.

Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) DISC. OF JOINT Councilmember Hansen reviewed reasons favoring Arden FIRE STATION' 1/4 Hills remaining in the Joint Powers Agreement with the City of Shoreview for Fire Station #4: - Cooperative working with neighboring cities is important. - Maintain unity in the Lake Johanna Volunteer Fire Department. . - Cost sharing may be cost effective. Mayor Woodburn reviewed reasons opposing continuance with the Joint Powers Agreement for Station #4: -Cooperation for cooperations sake may not necessarily be to Arden Hills advantage. -Lake Johanna Fire Department may stay unified; independent system, in the long run may be more beneficial. -Costs are high and will continue to increase with additional equipment; may not be a savings, -Arden Hills receives little coverage with the Island Lake Site; maybe some manpower. Counci1member Peck commented: -Cooperation is important. -Joint venture somtimes has a losing side. -Money is an issue. -Are we ready?

CALL TO ORDER The meeting was called to order at 5:20 p.m. by Chair Barbara Piotrowski. ROLL CALL Present: Barbara Piotrowski, Dave Carlson and Ray McGraw. Absent: Jean Lemberg. Vacancies: Chair Piotrowski explained that there are two membership vacancies on the Board of Appeals, due to the resignation of Tim Tuggle and the Council appointment of Jeanne Winiecki. CASE #87-09 - Front and Side Yard Setback Variances, 3290 Sandeen Road, McCloskey The Board voted unanimously in favor of the 5 ft. front yard setback variance, justifiable by the slope of the lot away from the street. The Board voted unanimously against the variance request for the 5 ft. south side yard setback. The proposed structure will meet, at present (according to the drawing on the certificate of survey), the existing 10 ft. setback requirement. It appears the variance was requested in the first place to allow some latitude for the architect to design a deck or patio. Since the last Council meeting, Ms. McCloskey has acquired an approximate 10 ft. easement along the south property line. . The Board realizes the lakeshore lots are narrow and the neighborhood already has many substandard conditions; when redevelopment occurs we try to bring properties into conformance. We want to work with the homeowners and we realize the McCloskey home will be a great improvement to the area. Arden Hills welcomes new home builders that make our City a more beautiful place to live. CASE #87-10 - Front Yard Setback, 1305 Tiller Lane, Schull The Board voted 3-0 against requested setback plans as submitted. We could see no hardship in this case to justify the variance. It was felt that with the help of an architect they would get a workable floor plan that could expand out the back of the home, rather than the front. Perhaps as Planner Miller notes; considering the uniformity of this block of five homes, granting this variance might establish a new setback line by precedent. The houses along that block are 38.5 feet from the street, instead of the required 40 ft. setback. CASE #87-11 - Lot Split Variance, Oak Avenue, Lot I, Block 4, Tramm The Board voted unanimously in favor of the proposed lot split and requested variance. Even with the variance as requested, standard setbacks can be met. The new lot will have 21,000 sq. ft. of area (14,000 sq. ft. being the requirement), which helps compensate for the narrow frontage. CASE #87-12 - Front Setback Variance, Lot North of Lake Johanna Boulevard, Anderson Mr. Anderson requested a variance on two parcels of land, A & B, stating drainage . problems of the slopes on the north and west sides. The Board felt that no matter which way the house plan (as submitted) was positioned on the lot, run-off would be a problem. Drainage problems exist already at the end of the access road. Is it not the homeowners responsibility to landscape accordingly, as to prevent run-off onto other adjacent properties! ~ ' ~ . Minutes of the Board of Appeals Meeting, April 23, 1987 Page 2 CASE # 87-12 (Cont'd) The Board concensus in this case was that the slopes . on the north and east sides of the lot did not justify a drainage hardship. Rather, it was noted that without a variance, the home would have little or no rear yard. On this basis, the variance was approved by a vote of 3-0 on Parcel A only. The Board determined that Parcel B should be able to meet City Zoning Ordinances, as it has a slope only on the rear of the property. The approval of the variance for Parcel A should be attached to the approval and conditions of the Minor Subdivision. Submitted by Barbara Piotrowski Chair . .

To: Arden Hills Planning Commission TIQQDt~ From: Wehrman Bergly Associates Orlyn W. Miller, Planner Subject: Case #87-10 Front setback variance for house additions n. plaza bldg., ste. 220 at 1305 Tiller Lane 5217 wayza!a blvd. Applicants: Raymond L. and Pamela J. Shull minneapolis, mn 55416 612 544 7576 Date: Apri 1 10, 1987 The subject property is a single-story house situated approximately 6 feet above the street elevation. According to a recent survey, the southeast portion of the house is set back 38.5 feet from the front property line. The attached garage at the west end of the house has a setback of 46,5 feet. The applicants want to remodel and expand the house. They are proposing to remove the existing garage and excavate to bring the floor elevation of a new garage closer to the street elevation to reduce the slope of the driveway. Above the garage a new family room is proposed, creating a split-level condition. The stairs to provide access to the garage and family room from the existing floor level will be built at the rear of the present garage space, pushing the proposed garage forward 12 feet. The new garage/family room wing will then have a setback of 34.5 feet, requiring a variance of 5,5 feet. . The applicants are also proposing to expand the master bedroom at the southeast corner of the house to bring that wing even with the front of the garage. Therefore, the setback of this wing will also be decreased to 34.5 feet. COMMENTS: 1. An option considered relative to the garage/family room wing was extending the stair space to the rear of the existing garage. Although this is considered workable, it would create some design problems related to access and would also require that the gable be extended to both the front and the rear, creating a more difficult roof condition. The proposed garage will be 20 feet wide by 24 feet deep, and the double stai r will be 8 feet in width. These dimensions could not be altered significantly to increase the resulting setback. 2. No viable alternative to the proposed plan for expansion of the master bedroom is apparent without complete rearrangement of the house floor plan. 3. Based on the topography map of the area and visual observation, the houses along this block of Tiller Lane are at or near the 38.5-foot . existing setback of this subject house. planning. landscape architecture Because of the similar size, age, and siting of the houses on this . block, the basis for the requested variance is probably not unique to this house, nor does it relate directly to a condition of the land. The City has sometimes approved variances based on the position of the existing house and for the constraints of its floor plan, However, considering the uniformity of this block, granting the variance might establish a new setback line by precident. CONCLUSIONS: The proposal represents a practical and reasonable approach to expansion of the subject house. No serious negative impact on adjacent properties is evi dent. In fact, improvement of the house may represent a positive impact on adjacent property values, However, no unique or unusual condition has been identified to justify the variance on the basis of hardship alone. Furthermore, the degree of the variance requested may have the affect of establishing a reduced setback for the entire block. . . TIQDo .'.'.' kf E2,218,500 88 I X894.

Miller, Planner Subject: Case #87-11 Minor subdivision and lot width variance Lot 1, Block 4 of Shady Oaks Addition n. plaza bldg., ste. 220 5217 wayzata blvd. Applicant: Kim Tramm (Mardon Homes, Inc.) minneapolis, mn 55416 Date: Apri 1 10, 1987 612 544 7576 The subject property is an odd-shaped parcel approximately 1.1 acres in area. A house exists on the north portion of the parcel, The south portion is presently used as open yard for the existing home, The applicant is requesting approval of a minor subdivision to allow the creation of a new lot by splitting off the south portion of the parcel. Since the proposed lot has a width of only 75t feet at the front setback line, a width variance of 20 feet is also requested. COMMENTS L The proposed lot will have an area of approximately 21,000 square feet (14,000 square feet required), It will be 240 feet deep with an average width of 97.5 feet (50 feet at street and 145 feet at rear) . . The north lot, containing approximately 26,400 square feet, will have a depth of 213 feet and a width of 117 feet. A lO-foot sideyard setback will be provided for the existing house. 2. A house exists on the lot directly to the south. This house is approximately 10 feet from the property line. The distance between this house and the existing house on the subject property is approxi- mately 95 feet. 3, The primary issue with this proposal is the impact of development of the lot on adjacent property. Although the picture windows of the existing house to the north are oriented toward the new lot, that house will retain a lot nearly twice the size of a standard R-l lot. The house to the south has an adequate setback and is partially screened by mature shrubs along the shared property line. Analysis of the proposed lot indicates that a flexible building envelope exists and that all setback requirements can be met. Therefore, no negative impacts on adjacent properties are apparent, 4. The subject lot slopes upward from Oak Avenue approximately 18 feet to its highest point. The steepness of the slope will require special treatment to achieve an acceptable driveway grade. The applicant is currently working on preliminary plans for a house which would have a tuck-under garage to reduce the driveway slope. . I believe that a tuck-under design is the appropriate way of dealing with the slope problem. planning' landscape architecture -- CONCLUSIONS: . The proposed minor subdivision and associated lot width variance are considered acceptable because: a. The large lot size compensates for the narrow frontage. b, A flexible building envelope exists on the new lot, c. Standard setbacks can be provided, d.

Miller, Planner Subject: Case #87-12 Setback variances for two lots n. plaza bldg., ste. 220 Applicant: Mark Anderson 5217 wayzata blvd. minneapolis, mn 55416 Date: Apri 1 10, 1987 612 544 7576 Last December, the applicant received approval of a minor subdivision to create two lots from the 0.73-acre parcel north of Lake Johanna. The lots are not on a public street, but are served by an established access easement. The applicant has prepared a preliminary plan for a house on the north lot and would like to place the house within 20 feet of the west property line. Since the west property line is considered the front of the lot, a 20-foot variance is requested. COMMENTS: L The zoning ordinance defines front lot line as "The boundary of a lot abutting a street". Since neither of the lots front on a street, it is debatable if a "front lot line" actually exists. If . we assume, however, that all lots have some portion that represents a frontage, the west lot line which is directly adjacent to the access easement is the most logical candidate in this case, 2. The City Attorney has determined that the access easement is not a public easement dedicated to the City. It is a legally established easement in favor of and for the benefit of the adjacent property owners, including the applicant. It is reasonably safe to assume that no standard public street will ever be constructed on the easement. It is possible that the easement could be used for access to the parcel to the north, but the topography makes this unlikely, 3. The property directly west of the subject lots is owned by Ramsey County and is part of the Ramsey County Open Space. It is reasonable to expect that this will remain as permanent open space. 4. Two existing houses adjacent to the access easement appear to be set back less than 20 feet from the easement line. 5. The applicant's primary rationale for reducing the setback from the west lot line relates to the steep slope at the rear of the lot. If a 40-foot setback is enforced, the rear of the house will be at the base of the slope. For reasons of avoiding drainage problems and to create a usable rear yard, moving the house west is considered . desirable. planning' landscape architecture CONCLUSIONS: . L The requested setback variance is acceptable because: a. The subject lot is unique in that the front of the lot is not on a public street. b. No negative impact upon adjacent properties is evident. c. The steep slope at the north and east portions of the lot represent a hardship related to the land itself. 2. If the variance is granted, it should be conditioned upon satisfaction of all conditions attached to the approval of the minor subdivision.

To: Arden Hills Planning Commission llQQE)ates From: Wehrman Bergly Associates, Inc. Orlyn W. Miller, Planner Subject: Case #87-15 Site plan review and setback variance for addition to building n. plaza bldg., ste. 220 4251 Fernwood Avenue 5217 wayzata blvd. Applicant: Alpo Pet Food, Inc. minneapolis, mn 55416 612 544 7576 Date: April 29, 1987 The applicant is proposing to construct a 17' X 31' addition to the northwest corner of the existing building. A bituminous area for service access to the addition is proposed to extend from the west edge of the existin9 bituminous service area, The proposed addition will be constructed of concrete block to match the present building. It will be 21 feet in height (existing building ranges from 18 to 26 feet in height). The applicant's surveyor has recently completed a survey of the building location and has determined that the new addition will be 63 feet from the rear property line. Since a 75-foot setback is required, a 12-foot variance is also requested. COMMENTS 1. The project engineer has given me the following information regarding . the construction and use of the proposed addition: The building will house a tank for the storage of liquid ta 11 ow. The location for the addition was chosen to allow convenient service access from the existing service area and to place the product storage near the place where it is needed in the manufacturing process. The storage tank will be sealed and, therefore, should not emit additional odors. The additi on will not involve installation of mechanical equipment on the roof or adjacent to the building. An air intake vent will be installed at the northwest corner. Service access for a supply truck is provided to the addition. It is estimated that refilling of the storage tank will be required once each month. No other service function will occur in this area. 2. The ordinance requires a 75-foot setback from a residential zoning district for any non-residential structure. Since the rear property line of the subject property is the division between the 1-1 and R-l Districts, a 75-foot rear setback is required in this case. As previously stated, a recent survey has determined that the new addition will be 63 feet from the rear property line, requiring a 12-foot variance. (The existing building is 68t feet from the property 1 ine.) . planning' landscape architecture The variance condition could be avoided by moving the addition south along the west wall of the existing building. If located . near the southwest corner of the existing building, service could be accommodated from the south parking and service area. This location, however, is at the opposite end of the building from where the product is used in the manufacturing process and would require 200 feet of piping to deliver the product to the mixing platform, Since the tallow must be heated to remain liquid, the delivery pipes would also have to be heated. Therefore, the applicant has chosen the proposed location for efficiency and economy. 3. It should be noted that a 50-foot-wide public pedestrian way exists between the subject property line and the rear of the closest single-family lots. This condition effectively creates a 113-foot separation between the proposed addition and the adjacent lots. The ordinance, however, establishes the setback from the zoning district line, which is the same as the subject property line. CONCLUSIONS 1. The proposed addition is relatively minor and will not significantly alter the present use of the site. 2, The rationale for the requested setback variance relates to the location and configuration of the existing structure, not specifically to a hardship caused by the characteristics of the land. However, . the additional separation provided by the 50-foot pedestrian way mitigates the setback encroachment. 3. If the Planning Commission favors the variance, the justification would have to be that the pedestrian way creates a unique condition of this lot which mitigates any negative effects of the encroachment upon adjacent properties. 4. The applicant should be reminded that the ordinance states that no service activity audible in. a residential district shall occur between 7:00 p.m. and 7:00 a.m. (Section VI,E(4)) . mOo CASE #87-15 PAGE TWO \ \:Z f ~ I ~. , ~' 3~ " r 7 6 543 2 I , - - ---~~~. ~ &0.6 ~ ~ "1 S. ,.... - \9- - - - - ~(toJ" " J Q I' ':~I \f l 't ) 0 '1 ""'''1' i. ~2~~ (I") 'I' ~::n.

APPROVE MINUTES Moved by Zebm, seconded by Malone, that the Minutes of April 1, 1987, be approved as submitted. Motion carried. (Zebm, Malone. Petersen. Thorn voting in favor; Babcook abstained) (4-0-1) CASE NO. 87-08; The Public Hearing was opened at 8:25 p.m. Deputy Clerk REZONING FROM B-2 Iago vertified the publication of the Notice of Hearing TO 1-2; SCHERER in the New BriRhton Bulletin, on Wednesday, April 22nd, LUMBER, HWY. 10 and mailing on the same date. Planner Miller reviewed his memorandum of 4-10-87 and noted that under current zoningt the existing lumberyard is a non-conforming use. He noted the following . factors which support the requested rezoning: 1. Rezoning is necessary to accommodate the upgrading of an existing use. 2. The site is relatively isolated, surrounded on three sides by major arterials. 3. The land across Highways 10 and 35W is zoned and developed industrially. Miller recommended approval of the requested rezoning. Larry Leitshuh, Scherer Lumber, explained that it is Scherer Lumber's desire to bring the property into conformance by requesting the rezoning from B-2 to 1-2. Acting Chair Petersen asked if Council had approved any other variances than those listed in the Planning Commission recommendation in the minutes of 4-1-87. Planner Miller advised the Council had not approved any further variances; he noted that a sign variance would have to be considered as a separate action. Leitshuh advised they have not finanlized plans for the sign and are not requesting a sign variance at this time. Acting Chair Petersen asked if there were any comments from the floor either in favor of or opposed to the proposed rezoning of this parcel. . There was no response from the floor. . ~ Minutes of the Regular Planning Commission Meeting, May 6, 1987 Page 2 REZONING (CONT'D) The Public Hearing was closed at 8:30 p.m. . Thorn moved, seconded by Babcook, that COlIDDission recommend to Council approval of the request for Rezoning from B-2 to 1-2, Case No. 87-08, Schere Brothers Lumber, 4947 Highway 10, as submitted. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) CASE NO. 87-14; The Public Hearing was opened at 8:31 p.m. Deputy Clerk REZONING FROM 1-2 Iago verified the publication of the Notice of Hearing TO B-2, C.G.REIN in the New Bri~hton Bulletin, on Wednesday, April 22nd, LEXINGTON AVENUE and mailing on same date. Planner Miller reviewed his memorandum dated 4-29-87, and noted that a preliminary development plan for the site has been submitted, however, the Commission need only address the land use issue at this time. The Planner advised the C.G. Rein Company is proposing to construct a 15,900 sq. ft. shopping center on the 2.5-acre parcel north of St. Paul Metal craft. The Comprehensive Plan designates this areas as industrial and the site is currently zoned 1-2, a district which does not permit retail uses. Therefore, rezoning to B-2 General Business is being requested. Miller also noted for COlIDDission that the less desirable uses in the B-2 District are permitted by Special Use Permit, allowing the City to retain a measure of control on the site development. Bill Sikora, Architect for C.G. Rein, displayed a drawing which compared land . use in Shoreview and Arden Hills along the Lexington Avenue Corridor. He pointed out that Lexington Avenue, in this area, was taken on an increasingly commercial/service charater and the large office developments to the north of this site, along the Highway 694 corridor, can support further development of this nature. Sikora advised there would be a combination of use proposed, service and small retail uses. Member Babcook asked if a service station was proposed for the site. Sikora advised there is no service station proposed. Discussion items included: - The amount of occupied space at the Shannon Square development. - The possibility of the applicant obtaining a small amount of the property contiguous with Shannon Square, rather than this parcel. - The possibility of any future retail development along Red Fox Rd. Dennis Cavanaugh, President of C.G. Rein, advised members that he had discussed the possibility of obtaining a portion of the Gould land, adjacent to Shannon Square~ however, the owner was not interested in selling in the near future. Sikora advised that Shannon Square is 75% occupied at present. and that the remaining leases are under option. . --------------- ------------------- - Minutes of the Regular Planning Commission Meeting, May 6, 1987 Page 3 . REZONING (CONT'D) Planner advised that there is a 2-acre parcel between the Emerald Inn and Northwoods that has been reserved by the owner for retail development (on Red Fox Road). He noted that the owner proposes a restaurant for the site which would require a SUP. Acting Chair Petersen asked for comments from the floor in favor of or opposed to the requested rezoning. There was no response form the floor. The Public hearing was closed at 8:45 p.m. There was discussion relative to permitted uses in both 1-2 and B-2 districts, increased traffic on Lexington Avenue and the need for retail development. Sikora advised that the demand for space within Shannon Square has prompted the rezoning request. Planner Miller stated that although he has some concern about increasing the "strip commercial" appearance along Lexington Ave, the requested rezoning is generally acceptable for the following reasons: 1. The retail/service uses will not adversely affect the operation and safety of Lexington Ave. more than uses permitted under current zoning. 2. Use permitted by right in the B-2 district would not be incompatible . with other development along Lexington Ave. 3. The site is proximate to established B-2 uses at Red Fox Rd. and Lexington. 4. The least desirable B-2 uses can be controlled through the SUP process. Moved by Babcook, seconded by Thorn, that Commisison recommend to Council approval of the Rezoning of the parcel at Lexington Avenue north of Grey Fox Road from 1-2 to B-2, Case No. 87-14, C.G. Rein Company, based on the fact that there appears to be a demand for retail/service oriented use of land in this area and the rezoning would not be incompatible or out of character with other development along Lexington Avenue. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) CASE NO. 87-10; Planner Miller reviewed the request for a front setback FRONT SETBACK VAR. Variance for a house addition at 1305 Tiller Lane. He 1305 TILLER LANE noted that the houses along this block of Tiller Lane are at or near the 38.5 foot existing setback of this subject house. The applicant is requesting a 5.5 foot variance, therefore, the setback of the southeast corner of the house, as well as the new garage/family room wing would be 34.5 feet. Miller explained that variances have sometimes been approved based on the position of the existing house or for the constraints of its floor plan. However, considering the uniformity of this block, granting a variance might establish a new setback line by precident. . -.--- . . Minutes of the Regular Planning Commission Meeting, May 6, 1987 Page 4 CASE NO. 87-10; Planner referred Commission members to Board of Appeals . ( CONTINUED) Minutes (4-23-87), recommending denial based on the fact they could find no hardship in this case to justify the variance and grating this variance may establish a new setback line by precident. The Board suggested that the applicant could employ the help of an architect to get a workable floor plan that could expand out the back of the home, rather than the front. Raymond and Pamela Shull, applicants, explained the interior physical layout of their home prompted their expansion out. the front of the horne, rather than the back. Pamela also stated the driveway is steep and the expansion would eliminate some of the driveway slope. She noted other reasons for the request were to help alleviate the dampness in tke basement of the home (noting their son is asthmatic), elimination of two condemned fireplaces in the home, and the contractor had stated that expansion from the back of the home would create roofline problems. Acting Chair Petersen asked Planner Miller if the homes across the street maintained a 40 ft. setback. Miller advised that those homes were granted a 5 ft. setback variance because of poor soil conditions on the lots; the City was interested in minimizing the amount of fill on the lots. After discussion, the consensus of the Commission mambers was that they could not determine a unique hardship for this request. Moved by Malone, seconded by Zehrn, that Commission . recommend to Council denial of the Front Setback Variance request, Case No. 87-10, 1305 Tiller Lane, Raymond and Pamela Shull, based on the fact that the CommiSSion finds no significant hardship on the part of the applicant. Motion carried unanimously, (5-0) CASE NO. 87-11; The Planner reviewed his memorandum (4-10-87), and MINOR SUBD!LOT explained the background of this parcel for Commission WIDTH VARIANCE, members. OAK AVE., TRAMM Miller advised that the proposed lot will exceed the 14,000 sq. ft. area required by ordinance, however the subject property is an odd-shaped parcel, with a front width of only 75 ft. at the front setback line, therefore, the applicant is requesting a width variance of 20 ft, as well as approval of the minor subdivision. Planner stated that that an adequate building envelope exists and all setback requirements can be met, therefore, no negative impacts on adjacent properties are apparent. He further noted that the steepness of the slope on this lot will require special treatment to achieve an acceptable driveway grade. The applicant is working on a house plan which includes a tuck-under garage, to reduce the driveway slope. Miller referred Commission members to the Board of Appeals minutes (4-23-87) recommending approval of the 20 ft. lot width variance. . Minutes of the Regular Planning Commission Meeting, May 6, 1987 Page 5 . CASE NO. 87-11; There was discussion relative to placement of the home (CONTINUED ) in relation to the adjacent existing homes. Kim Tramm, applicant, advised he had no problem with establishing the front setback of the proposed home in line with the corners of the adjacent existing homes. Zehm moved, seconded by Petersen, that Commission recommends to Council approval of the Minor Subdivision and associated Lot Width Variance, Case No. 87-11, Oak Avenue, Kim Tramm, based on the following: 1. The large lot size compensates for the narrow frontage. 2. A flexible building envelope exists on the new lot. 3. Standard setbacks can be be provided. 4. No negative impact on adjacent properties is evident. Furthermore, approval is subject to the front setback line of the proposed home not exceeding the front setback line on the two adjacent property owners existing homes. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) CASE NO. 87-12; Planner Miller reviewed his memorandum dated 4-10-87 SETBACK VARIANCE relative to the Front Setback variance and gave a NO. OF LK.JOHANNA brief background of the minor subdivision previously approved by Council. . Miller noted the applicant's primary rationale for reducing the setback from the west lot line relates to the steep slope at the rear of the lot. He noted that if the 40 ft. setback is enforced, the rear of the house will be at the base of the slope; to avoid drainage problems and create a usable rear yard, moving the house west is considered desirable. Commission members were referred to the Board of Appeals minutes (4-23-87) recommending approval of the variance, based on the fact that without the variance, the home would have little or no rear yard. Planner Miller noted for Commission members that the Variance request was only for this parcel, not for the adjacent lot as shown in his memorandum. Mark Anderson, applicant, advised that the other parcel, adjacent to the south of his property, will be purchased by a friend. Anderson stated that the prospective owner has not developed a house plan for the parcel, therefore, only the variance for Anderson's lot is being requested at this time. He also advised that he had worked with an architect to determine where the home would be best situated on the lot so that it would not affect the drainage pattern and be compatible the the proposed home on the adjacent southerly lot. The Planner identified the building envelope on the southerly adjacent lot and noted that the existing homes to the south of the two vacant parcels are approximately 10-15 ft. from the access easement. Member Babcook stated he did not see a hardship; noted the Planner commented . that the lot is buildable without granting a variance. Other members did not agree; Petersen stated the slope of the land is justification of hardship. ----------- -------- . Minutes of the Regular Planning Commission Meeting, May 6, 1987 Page 6 CASE NO. 87-12: Moved by Petersen, seconded by Zehm, that Commission (CONTINUED) recommends to Council approval of the 20 ft.Front . Setback Variance on the lot north of Lake Johanna Blvd. , Case No. 87-12, Mark Anderson: rationale for approval based on unique topography of the land (steep slope at the north and east portions of the lot). the fact that the adjacent properties will not be negatively impacted, and the southerly existing homes front setbacks are 10-15 ft. thus granting the variance would not establish setback precident. Thorn moved to amend the motion. seconded by Petersen, that approval be contingent upon the applicant satisfying all conditions attached to the approval of the minor subdivision. Amendment to the motion carried unanimously. (5-0) Original motion as amended carried. (Petersen, Zehm, Malone, Thorn voting in favor; Babcook opposed) (4-1) CASE NO. 87-15; Planner reviewed his memorandum (4-29-87), regarding SITE PLAN REVIEW & the site plan review for Alpo Pet Food. Inc. and SETBACK VARIANCE ; rear yard setback. He noted that the Ordinance requires ALPO PET FOODS a 75 ft. setback from a residential zoning district for any non-residential structure. Since the rear property line of the subject property is the division between the I-I and R-l Districts. a 75 ft. rear setback is required in this case. Hiller advised that the Zoning Administrator had attempted to verify the zoning district boundary line, however, she was unable to find information relative to the vacation. . dedication or sale of the land that was proposed for use as Highway 51. The Planner stated he would discuss the matter with the City Attorney to determine the zoning district boundary line. Since this has not been verified, Miller suggested the Commission deal with the site plan review issue and include a contingency for the variance upon determination that it is necessary. Planner stated that the applicant is proposing to construct a 17 ft. x 31 ft. addition to the northwest corner of the existing building. The proposed addition will be constructed of concrete block to match the present building and will be 21 ft. high. Miller advised that the project engineer has provided the following information regarding the construction and use of the proposed addition: - The building will house a tank for storage of liquid tallow. - Location for the addition was chosen to allow convenient service access and place the product storage near the place where it is needed in the manufacturing process. - The storage tank will be sealed and should not emit any additional odors. - The addition will not involve installation of mechanical equipment on the roof or adjacent to the building. - An air intake vent will be installed at the northwest corner. Commission members discussed the need for additional screening or plantings at the rear of the site and if parking is adequate. Miller advised that the site is well screened at the rear with mature or near . mature trees; he also stated that the parking is more than adequate. , Minutes of the Regular Planning Commission Meeting, Hay 6, 1987 Page 7 . CASE NO. 87-15; Moved by Thorn, seconded by Malone, that Commission (CONTINUED ) recommend to Council approval of the Site Plan Review Case No, 87-15, Alpo Pet Foods, Inc., as submitted. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) Moved by Babcook, seconded by Zehm, that Commission recommend to Council approval of the 12 ft. Rear Setback Variance, based on the fact that the 50-ft. pedestrian way mitigates any negative effects of the encorachment upon adjacent properties. Motion carried unanimously. (5-0) PRELIM. DISC. The Planner advised that Mr. Miller had requested CUMMINGS PROP. placement on the.agenda for preliminary discussion of the development of the Cummings property on Lexington Avenue; northeast corner of Cummings Park. Miller stated that the parcel of land is currently zoned R-l, with approximately 250 feet of frontage on Lexington Avenue. Discussions with the developer included a proposal for platting three lot single family lots, which may require some frontage variances, although the lots would exceed the depth and area requirements. Miller also discussed a cluster townhouse development, approximately 3.11 units per acre. (single family sale housing) which would require a special use permit in this district. He noted that the density would have to be calculated, excluding the water area on the parcel. Bob Miller and Randy Hopkins, partners in the development of the parcel, displayed a preliminary sketch of a cluster townhouse development on the land. . The arrangement was for four units at the rear of the parcel (2 one-story units and 2-two story units all attached) with a walkout design; and three attached units on the southerly border of the property (2 one-story units and 1 2-story unit). He discussed the topography of the land, referring to the steep slope at the rear of the property. Acting Chair Petersen asked if Miller had built this type of townhouse development previously; commented that Commission would like to see the development if so. Randy Hopkins stated he had a townhouse development he constructed on Old Shakopee Road. He advised the base price of the proposed units would be $100,000.00. Commission discussed the following items: - Minimizing access onto Lexington; increased traffic. - Impact on neighboring single-family residential area. - Retention of land for park access. - PUD development of this parcel; comparable to Hunters Park. - Density calculation; preferred lower density. - Common driveway access onto Lexington. - Architectural quality of the development to enhance the area since it is adjacent to single-family district. - Applicant should consider a townhouse development based on the fact that . there are no other workable options for Single-family development. . Minutes of the Regular Planning Commission Meeting, May 6, 1987 Page 8 CUMMINGS PROP. After discussion, Commission consensus was that the ( CONTINUED ) developer should pursue a single-family or low density . proposal for this parcel; architectural quality should be high if the plan is for cluster homes. Commission members also advised that they realize this is a difficult parcel and they would consider variances for a single-family design proposal on the parcel to enhance the development of the land. Planner Miller noted that the options for development of the parcel, without granting variances, rezoning or granting a special use permit would be: 1- Leave land as is. 2. Develop the property as a single-family lot. 3. Subdivide the parcel into two single-family lots. Bob Miller and Randy Hopkins thanked the Commission members for their review of the preliminary proposal. COUNCIL REPORT Councilrnember Winiecki reported on recent Council actions on items of interest to the Planning members.

We appreciated receiving preliminary consttuction plans for the above referenced project. We have reviewed the pLans and have some questions. The proposed reconstruction will obviously create significant traffic delays and congestion on the freeway which will in turn place significant additional demands on adjacent roadways including city streets. This diversion of traffic will create some obvious delays for Arden Hills residents and will subject some of them to additional traffic. We recognize that the work must be done and that the delays are inevitable. The city would like to have aditional information relative to the estimated time of construction, for each of the stages. as well as the restrictions that will be placed upon th contractor's activities. We are interested in the hours that the contractor will be permitted to work and any incentives which might he offered to shorten the time of construction. Would you kindly contact our consulting engineers, Short-Elliott- Hendrickson, when the information is available. Sin~lY' / -. ~----n' ( l~ A(c/;;;J. "I.-;uW,,6.,rU .

District Engineer Mn(DOT, District 9 3485 Hadley Avenue N. Box 9050 North st. Paul, MN 55109 SUBJECT: S.P. 6284-111 (T.H. 35W) Concrete Pavement Repair and Guardrail Revisions from County Road "ell in Roseville to County Road "I" in Arden Hills Dear Mr. McRae: We appreciated receiving preliminary construction plans for the above referenced project. We have reviewed the plans and have some questions. . The proposed reconstruction will obviously create significant traffic delays and congestion on the freeway which will in turn place significant additional demands on adjacent roadways including city streets. This diversion of traffic will create some obvious delays for Arden Hills residents and will subject some of them to additional traffic. We recognize that the work must be done and that the delays are inevitable. The city would like to have additional information relative to the estimated time of construction, for each of the stages, as \-lell as the restrictions that will be placed upon the contractor's activities. We are interested in the hours that the contractor will be permitted to work and any incentives which might be offered to shorten the time of construction. Would you kindly contact our consulting engineers, Short-Elliott- Hendrickson, when the information is available.
