PUBLIC ro1MENTS
REQUEST SI'REEI' Mayor Sather explained this matter will be discussed at a
LIGHrS future meeting as the resident was not prepared to
present the request at this time.
GEESE PROBLEM; Mayor Sather asked if there was anyone present who wished
lAKE JOHANNA to be heard.
Tom Ludlow, 1515 Edgewater Avenue, explained the problems the residents in this
area are experiencing due to the geese. He advised the number of geese increase
each year and the ex=ement =eates an unhealthy abnosphere for residents. Ludlow
stated the residents have tried various methcx1s to remove the geese from this
area and have failed. He explained his wife directed a letter to the city in
November 1989 and the response indicated the best time to deal with the geese is
in the summer months.
Ludlow questionai if the residents could initiate a "Hunter/stalker" approach to
eliminate the geese from the area. He explained this methcxi =eates a hostile
. envirorunent to discourage the geese from nesting. Ludlow des=ibed the methcxi
involves stalking the family of geese to =eate an anxious atmosphere and
discharging firearms, with blank loads, to =eate a fear of the area. He advised
the second phase of the program would involve placement of several swan decoys on
the lake; toth phases are necessary to deter the geese from nesting in the area.

GEESE (Cont'd) Mayor Sather stated this matter has been brought before
Council for discussion on an arulUal basis by residents of .
either lake Johanna or Josephine. He advised Ludlow it is illegal to discharge a
firearm within the City lilnits and Council would not authorize this method to
prohibit the geese fram nesting in this area.
Sather explained lake Johanna and Josephine fall under the jurisdiction of Ramsey
County and the city has tried to work with the County on various occasions to
elllninate the problem. He expressed concern regarding a health hazard at the
beach areas due to the geese ex=ement.
The Mayor suggested stafr contact Ramsey County officials and the DNR to
determine if the number of geese in this area pose a health risk within an urban
environment.
Joseph Kahnke, 1541 Edgewater Avenue, explained the number of geese nesting in
this area in=eases every year. He expressed concern regarding the health hazard
to children using the beaches and suggested the City make an effort to rid the
lake area of the geese.
Council con=red to direct staff to contact the Deparbnent of Natural Resources
and Ramsey County officials to determine a method to remedy this problem.

building demolition, which will provide some economy of skill and minilnize some
problems in terms of phasing of the project.

excavating, transporting and additional backfill.

of the quote received from Gynyx, Inc., in the amount of $12,880.00. He referred
to Delta's letter which identifies the fact that one of the low bidders had been
cited by MPCA, one did not return the citation form and it is not ]mown if the
company has been cited for any reason and the third low quote is approx:iJnately
50% percent less than the average quote for the project. Berger explained he was
informed by Kristi Jensen of Delta that given the complexity of the project, the
quote receive:l by Environet, Inc. may not be sufficient to ensure quality
completion of the project in a timely fashion.
Couneilmember Malone asked a representative from Delta to outline the concerrlS
regarding the Environet Inc. quote.
Darryl Ohman and Kristi Jensen were present and explained that based on past
. experience and discussions with other contractors it appears the average length
of time to complete this project would be ten days. Jensen stated Environet
est:iJnated the time of completion between three and four days; it appears they may
not be taking all factors of the project into consideration.
Attorney Filla questioned if the specifications on which the quotes were based
were specific in identifying the need for electricity, lack of accessibility of
potable water and the need for security.
Jensen stated the need for electricity was specified several times in the
specifications and was listed in bold print.
Couneilmember Mahowald questioned what recourse the City will have in the event
the job is unsatisfactory.
Attorney Filla advised the City may request a performance borxi in the amount of
the quote which will be utilized in the event the job is unsatisfactory.
There was discussion relative to phasing of the demolition project.
Malone moved, se=rxied by Mahowald, to award the bid for
asbestos abatement to Environet, Inc., in the amount of $6,584. 00, contingent
upon suhnission of a performance bond in the a:rrount of the bid being provided to
the City on or before April 13, 1990, and that the Clerk Administrator is hereby

Group Health Clinic "ICXJo" arrl the variance is requeste::l
in order to maintain client recognition.

CASE #90-03; FRONT COuncil was referr-ed to the Planner's report arrl Planning
SEI'BACK VARIANCE, Commission minutes dated 4-4-90 arrl Board of Appeals
3464 SIEMS COURT, Minutes date::l 3-24-90, regarding the application for a
KUDAK & FlEW front setback variance, 3464 siems Court, Kudak & Field.
The Planner explained the request is to a=mmodate a two-car garage on the site
and he referr-ed council to a diagram of the proposed garage placement. He noted a
survey of the adjacent lots determined the average front yard setback in this
neighborhood to be 30 feet.
Bergly stated the applicant has been working with an architect to firxi alternate
solutions for garage placement, however, due to the lilnited building envelope and
topography of the lot the garage placement is extremely difficult without some
type of variance.
The Planner advised the Board of Appeals arrl Planning COIlllllission recommended .
denial of the variance based on the negative sight-line irrpact of the garage
placement on the adjacent properties arrl preference of both bodies not to set a
precedent with such a dramatic setback variance.
Bergly reviewed an alternative plan for the garage placement which would require
a 20 ft. setback (a 10 ft. variance).
The Planner briefly des=ibed the residents concerns, as note::l in Planning
minutes.
After discussion Council con=ed that the requested variance is extreme and
will negatively irrpact this area. councilmernbers expressed sympathy for the
applicant working within the building envelope constraints and suggested an
atte:rrpt be made toward placement of the garage at a location which is more in
line with =ent zoning standards.
Malone moved, seconded by Mahowald, to deny the Front
Setback Variance application, Case #90-03, based on the following: 1. There is
not an identifiable hardship, 2. Granting the variance will set precedent and
unduly shorten the front setbacks generally established in this area, and, 3.
Placement of the garage at this location will infringe on adjacent properties
site-lines. Motion carried unanimously. (3-0)

and recommendations regarding the Lexington Avenue study; either prior to or
at their regular meeting in May.

Dear Gary,
Thank you for allowing the Ramsey County Charter Commission to
appear before the Arden Hills City Council at their regular
Counci I meeting on April 3D, 1990. Enclosed are fifteen copies
of the proposed Charter, fact sheets, and Council Resolution of
support of our educational efforts for distribution to the
Council and staff prior to the meeting.
\.Ie wi 11 have a short slide presentation (8-10 minutes) and a
Charter Commission member will he present to answer any
questions the Councilor audience may have. \.Ie would then ask
~ that the Counci I pass a Resolution urging ci ty residents to
become informed and vote on the Charter question in the November
elenion. The Charter Commission "ould welcome a resolution of
support for the Charter, but as a non-partisan Commission "hose
role is to educate the public, we cannot advocate for support.
This Resolution "ould then be sent to the local newspaper to
begin the public educational campaign.
lie will also ask for an in-kind contribution to be "orked out
with staff . This would take the form of distribution of our
fact sheet through a City ne"sletter or making information
available to the public at a licensing desk or similar outlet.
The volunteers of the Ramsey County Charter Commission have
spent over t"o years creating this document for the people of
Ramsey County and appreciate your assistance in bringing this
important issue to them for their consideration on the
November 6, 1990 ballot. Thank you becoming a part of this

This is the first home rule charter ever written for a county in the
history of Minnesota. Some cities have home rule charters; they serve
as a constitutional blueprint and allow more decisions to be made at the
local level by elected officials. This is - the first time the State
Legislature has allowed a county to draft a charter, and the voters will
decide on adopting this county constitution at the November 6, 1990
general election.
Yhat will the Charter change?
1. It Hill give the people the power to pass ordinances
by Initiative, to vote on existing ordinances by
Referendum, and to Reca II irresponsi ble elected
officials. A valid .petition for these actions
requires a specified percentage of the voters to sign
the petition; currently this number in Ramsey County
~ would be 23,500;
2. It provides for professional management '.hich will
lead to greater efficiency and effective use of county
resources. Currently, the professional form of
management can be changed by a vote of four county
board members;
3. It gives limited bonding au thori ty with increased
citizen participation through public hearings;
4. It provides for more direct citizen participation in
decisions regarding park land transfers;
5, It requires coordination of county activities with
local uni ts of government but does not change any
powers local governments currently have; and
6. It allows the voters to change and amend the Charter
to reflect changing needs in our society.
The Charter recognizes that many things are working well in the county
and has included these in the charter framework. In addition. some
things will not change.
~ Vhat will not change?
,
.l. County Commissioners will be elected by districts for
staggered terms;
2. The Sheriff and County Attorney will continue to be
elected positions;
-
3. The powers of cities or other local governments will ~
not be affected; and
4. Personnel policies will continue to be governed by
state law.
This historic Charter is the result of two years 0 f research, publi c
inpu t , and drafting and re-drafting by a group of civic volunteers who
serve on the Ramsey County Charter Commission. The Commission was
created by the state legislature and the members were selected by
district court judges. They represent all areas of the county an<i have
had considerable experience in service to their communities. This is a
document written for the people of Ramsey County by the people of Ramsey
County.
Adoption of the Charter will be on the November 6, 1990 ballot. If yOU
would like more information or would like a speaker with a short slide
presentation to explain the Charter to your group, call the Ramsey County
Charter Commission office at 298-4111.

MEMORANDUM
~ -----------------------------------------------------------------
-----------------------------------------------------------------
DATE: April 26, 1990
TO: Mayor and city council
FROM: Dan Winkel, P.W. Supervisor
SUBJECT: Completion of six Month Probationary Period - Pete
Saxe -
--------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------
Pete Saxe will be completing his six month probationary period
on May 1, 1990. I met with Mr. Saxe this week to conduct his
employee performance evaluation, which was very positive. I
feel Pete has done an outstanding job for the Public Works
Department since he started employment here on November 1, 1989.
Because of Mr. Saxe's past utility installation work experience,
and the similarity of these responsibilities within his present
job description, his presence has had an immediate and positive
impact on the City crew. I feel the city is fortunate to have
Pete working for them.
~ RECOMMENDATION:
Based on a very positive performance evaluation and a highly
satisfactory probationary period, I recommend that Mr. Saxe move
on to the next pay level. Mr. Saxe was hired at the 80% wage
level, and is scheduled to go to 90% after six months (which
would be $11.86 per hour). However, at this time, I recommend
that Mr. Saxe go to 95% of full wages ($12.52/hour) . This rate
increase was also done with Jim Perron. I feel that Mr. Saxe
has been a tremendous asset to the P.W. Dept. , and his hard work
ethics and experience should not go unnoticed. It should also
be noted that this increase was budgeted for in this year's
budget.
ACTION REQUIRED:
If Council concurs with the staff recommendation, they should
pass a motion approving the permanent employment status of Pete
Saxe, and increase his salary to 95% of the wage rate, which is
$12.52 per hour, effective May 1, 1990.

Drainage Pond
Our File No.: 10450/900008
Gary:
On April 23, 1990, I met with Marcel Ebensteiner at the site
of the drainage pond. I generally discussed the status of this
matter with him and we walked the area of the pond.
~ He indicated the following:
l. The original pond was designed by the City's
Engineering firm.
2. The reconfigured pond was layed out by Mr.
Ebensteiner's Engineers. However, the reconfigured
pond design was recommended for approval by the City's
Engineering firm on the condition that the pond
elevation be lowered to 969.5. The pond was dredged to
comply with this requirement. The reconfigured pond
has not been fully shaped in the field. Mr.
Ebensteiner was on site to complete this process last
fall when some adjoining property owners asked him not
to do any more excavation work.
3. Mr. Ebensteiner indicated to me that he would have his
Engineering firm again calculate the storage oapacity
of the pond in relationship to normal rain events. He
hoped to have this information to me by April 27, 1990.
However, as I diotate this correspondence I have not
received the information.
The pond does not have an outlet and the elevetion of the
home on the north side of the pond is SuCh that it would be
~ flooded before the pond would overflow its natural boundaries.
The most obvious outlet WOUld flow to the west and south over
property owned by George Reiling.

intend to oontact the people on the north side of the pond and
review this matter with them.

FROM: (y. Gary R. Berger, City Administrator
SUBJECT: Abandon~d Drums - Kem Milling site
-
--------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------------------------------------------------
Attached is a proposal from Darrell Oman, Delta Environmental
Consultants, Inc. , regarding abandoned drum disposal management
at the Kem Milling site. As Council will note, this work was
not included in the November 9, 1989, site demolition work plan,
and estimated additional costs for this work will range from
$4-$6,000.
Mr. Oman will be present at the meeting to answer any Council
questions on this matter.
RECOMMENDATION:
~ Staff recommends the expenditure of additional funds to cover
this work project.
ACTION REQUIRED:
If Council concurs with the staff recommendation, they should
pass a motion authorizing an expenditure of up to $6,000 to:
1. Inventory the abandoned drums according to type, condition,
and suspected contents.
2 . Segregate the drums to a more secure area on the site to
facilitate continuation of the demolition activities.
3. Sample and chemically analyze individual drum contents.
4. Once drum contents are characterized, arrange for proper
disposal of drums and contents.

Village of Arden Hills
1450 West Highway 96
Arden Hills, Minnesota 55112
Subject: Abandoned Drums
KEM Milling Site Demolition
Arden Hills. Minnesota
Delta No. 10-89-385
Dear Mr. Berger:
Delta Environmental Consnltants. Inc. (Delta) is actively managing the demolition activities
involving asbestos, underground storage tanks CUSTs), and water wells. Abatement of asbestos-
~ containing materials was initiated on April 16. 1990 and essentially completed on April 25. Some
preparatory demolition and UST removal activities were begun on April 25. The water well
abandonment procednres are expected to begin on April 26. Dnring the conrse of these
preparatory demolition activities. abandoned drums have been noted on the site. Most of the
drums are empty, but some contain unknown solids or liqnids.
As reported in the Environmental Assessment - Phase I report dated May 3, 1989, many of these
steel and plastic drums were also noted during our site reconnaissance. The majority of these
drums were assumed to contain wastewater treatment chemicals or boiler and steam-line chemicals.
As the previous site owner was still in the process of closing down the facility operations and
salvaging equipment and materials. it would not have been effective to inventory all drums or
identify their contents at the time of the Phase I Environmental Assessment. For the same
reasons, Delta did not prepare or conduct a drum inventory survey in the Phase II Environmental
Assessment. Also, a drum survey was not proposed by Delta in onr site demolition work plan
dated November 9, 1989 for the following reasons:
1. At the time of onr proposal, the previous site owner had uncontrolled access to the site
and could remove or deposit materials at will.
2. It was assumed by Delta that chemicals. including the wastewater treatment and boiler/
steam-line treatment chemicals, would be salvaged by the owner and not abandoned.
3. The lack of site secnrity wonld not prevent unwanted dumping or vandalism.
As Delta is contracted by the Village of Arden Hills to provide project management and guidance
~ to the contractors involved in asbcstos abatement, UST removals. and water well abandonment,
it is our obligation to minimize the potential liabilities associated with this entire project.
Practical Solutions to Environmental Concerns
. \.
Mr. Gary Berger ~
Delta No. 10-89-385
April 26, 1990
Page 2
Although Delta is not specifically authorized to provide abandoned drum disposal management,
we recommend additional funds be allocated to:
1. Inventory the abandoned drums according to type, condition, and suspected contents,
2. Segregate the drums to a more secure area on the site to facilitate continuation of the
demolition activities.
3. Sample and chemically analyze individnal drum contents.
4. Once drum contents are characterized. arrange for proper disposal of drums and
contents.
These tasks would supplement the scope of work presented in the November 9, 1989 work plan.
Delta would utilize one or possibly two subcontractors to complete these tasks. The estimated cost
range will depend upon the final determination of waste eharacteril.ation and the number of drums
which mnst be disposed of. Tt is our opinion the additional estimated costs associated with this
work will range from $4,000.00 to $6,000.00.
Delta will continue to provide subcontractor management for the UST removals. water well ~
abandonments. and asbestos abatement. These activities must also be coordinated with the general
demolition activity. Delta feels strongly that proper handling and disposal of the abandoned drums
is in the best interest of the Village of Arden Hills. Timely coordination of the drum handling
and disposal will allow other site demolition activities to continue as scheduled.
If you have any questions regarding the abandoned drums, or the recommended handling or
disposal procedures, please call me at 636-2427.
Sincerely.
