UNFINISHED AND NEW BUSINESS CASE 92-14: SUP - HOME OCCUPATION 3966 GLENVIEW AVENUE Planner Bergly stated that Case 92-14 is an application for a special use permit (SUP) for a beauty salon home occupation at 3966 Glenview Avenue. He explained the location of the home and that the business is proposed to be operated from the walkout lower level of attached garage. . Bergly advised that the Planning Commission held a public hearing on this case on August 5, where the only public comments expressed were from a neighbor and related to neighborhood security, precedent setting, and potential traffic congestion concerns, Bergly stated that the Planning commission recommended: 1) Waiving the Development Moratorium because this application meets the requirements of both the existing and proposed ordinance and will not impact development or use of neighboring property, and, 2) Approval of an SUP with six conditions suggested by Bergly and a seventh condition relating to allowed hours of operation, He added that the City Attorney reviewed the conditions and made minor language revisions to assure the permit is granted only to the property "owner" (rather than "resident") and operation be allowed only at the 3966 Glenview residence. Councilmember Malone questioned whether it is appropriate to consider an SUP or a home occupation permit, Planner Bergly stated that under current ordinance, and the proposed amendments to the zoning ordinance, an SUP would be appropriate. Bergly explained that under the proposed . revision, a home business (such as home office without patrons) does not require an SUP; however, a beauty salon " which would depend upon patrons coming to the residence, does require a SUP. Attorney Miller added that typically an r SUP runs wi th the 1 and rather than wi th the owner, but .(' \'-. '1 j' ~ if l~ . Arden Hills Council 5 August 17, 1992 Council could add yet another condition whereby the SUP would expire upon the sale of the property, MOTION: Mahowald moved, seconded by Malone, relative to Case 92-14, to waive the Development Moratorium, and approve a special use permit for home beauty salon occupation with the following conditions: l. The applicant's State Cosmetology License will be filed with the permit when available, 2, Only one work station will be provided, 3 . Only the owner of the dwelling is authorized to provide cosmetology services, 4. The driveway will be used for patron parking (i. e,; no on-street patron parking), 5 . There will be no external evidence of the home occupation, 6. Exteri or lighting will be of a "residential" type and will not be obtrusive to neighboring property, 7. The business must close by 7:00 p.m., Monday- Friday, and by 4:00 p.m. on Saturday, 8. The special use permit applies only to the current . homeowner and only at the residence at 3966 GIenview Avenue, and 9, The special use permit will expire upon sale of the property at 3966 Glenview Avenue. The applicant, Cynthia Garretson, stated that hours of operation, outlined within condition 7 of above motion, were a compromise during discussions with the Planning Commission, however, she preferred some flexibility of those hours. She added that she has a limited time in which to renew her State Cosmetology License, and is required to note her anticipated hours of operation on that application. Council discussed the issue of whether or not to regulate hours of operation, Acting Clerk Administrator Iago reported that there is one other SUP in the City for a beauty salon; that SUP makes no regulation of salon hours, that salon is still in operation, and there have been no complaints received. MOTION: Sather moved, seconded by Hicks, to amend the above motion by striking condition 7. Motion to amend carried unanimously (4-0), ORIGINAL MOTION: Council then voted upon the original motion, . (made by Mahowald and seconded by Malone) as stated except striking condition 7, Motion carried unanimously (4-0). . Arden Hills Council 6 August 17, 1992 CASE 92-15: SUP AMENDMENT ~_~~IGHT VARIANC~ BETHEL COLLEGE Council was given an opportunity to view a model of the Community Life Center auditorium proposed to be built on the Bethel College campus. Planner Bergly explained that in 1981, the City granted a special use permit (SUP) for a Master Plan for the college, He added that due to a reconfiguration of the footprint and height of the Community Life Center, staff recommends treating this matter as an SUP amendment with a height variance. Bergly explained the three issues relative to this case: 1) The original Master Plan called for a building nearer to Valentine Lake, however, current shoreland regulations require a 50' setback. The college chose to adjust the Master Plan (requiring an amendment to the SUP) rather than seek a shoreland setback variance. 2) An existing open ditch in the area would flow very close to the edge of the proposed Community Life . Center, therefore an underground storm sewer is being proposed. 3) The City's zoning ordinance allows a maximum height of 35' but spells out four criteria for a variance. For performing arts acoustical and symbolic/image reasons, the proposed building would be 75', which would require a 40' variance. All four criteria for a height variance have been satisfied. (For purposes of comparison, North Heights Church was granted a 30'+ height variance.) Councilmember Hicks asked if Rice Creek watershed District has considered the water management changes. Bergly stated that his understanding is that everything has been approved except for a Maintenance Agreement, which is currently being negotiated by the attorneys involved. Bergly advised that Planning Commission recommended: 1) Waiving the Development Moratorium because this application meets the requirements of both the existing and proposed ordinance and will not impact development or use of neighboring property, and, 2) Approval of an SUP amendment with height variance on the condi ti ons that: A) Upon approval, building and roadway changes are made to the Master Plan for filing with the SUP, . B) other City approved improvements not incorporated on the Plan, be incorporated on the Plan, C) The new Plan contain City approval date, and D) Rice Creek Watershed District approves a Maintenance Agreement relative to drainage. p 1', ;i - . Arden Hills Council 7 August 17, 1992 Councilmember Malone opened discussion regarding the height issue, He commented that it should be understood that this is a unique circumstance in that this building provides a monument type building for the entrance to the college and it does not obstruct views of other properties. Dave Lissner, representing the college, emphasized that in considering the SUP amendment, it should be noted that the concept of the proposed building has not changed from the original Master Plan. He added that it is understood that the height variance would only apply to this particular set of plans, Planner Bergly agreed that if a height variance were granted, it would be attached to this particular set of plans, and any substantial revisions to the plans would require Council reconsideration, ~orris Strawbridge, architect for the college, clarified the heights of specific points along the roofline of the \~ proposed building, the maximum point being 75' height, A{ MOTION: Hicks moved, seconded by Malone, relative to Case 92- "., 15, Community Life Center at Bethel College, to: 1) Waive the Development Moratorium, and 2) Approve amendment to SUP relative to the location of the building, on the conditions that: A) Upon approval, building and roadway changes are made to the Master Plan for filing with the SUP, B) Other City-approved improvements not incorporated on the Plan, be added to the Plan, C) The new Plan contain City approval date, and D) Rice Creek Watershed District approves a Maintenance Agreement relative to drainage; and 3) Approve the granting of a height variance of 40' (allowing a maximum building height of 75'). This variance is applicable only to this structure and granted in support of the unique design of the structure on the basis that all height variance criteria has been satisfied. Motion carried unanimously (4-0). ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENTS Councilmember Malone commented that he has some specific . questions relative to this agenda item and would suggest tabling. planner Bergly stated that at this time, all that is being requested is to begin the process of review of the proposed amendment; indicated that Council may wish to hold a joint session with Planning Commission to discuss ~, r f ~ r . Arden Hills Council 8 August 17, 1992 revisions. Malone reiterated this issue should be deferred at least until Council's October or November worksessions, MOTION: Malone moved, seconded by Mahowald, to table the agenda item relating to zoning ordinance amendments, Motion carried unanimously (4-0) , RESOLUTION 92-61 - PLANS & SPECS & AUTHORIZING BIDS ARDEN PLACE STORM SEWER Council reviewed quotes compiled by Public Works Superintendent Winkel for the cleaning of Arden Place storm sewer. Councilmember Malone commented that if a final attempt is made at unclogging the existing pipe in the Arden Place area, at a cost of approximately $100 per hour, it would be prudent to try for a limited number of hours rather than spend significant money to no avail. Councilmember Mahowald said he recalled specifically directing the Public Works Department, during the last . discussion of this matter, to accomplish one final attempt to unclog the pipe assuming a reasonable cost. He suggested that, in the interest of time, Council authorize advertising for bids for the Arden Place storm sewer project, in case the attempt to unclog the existing pipe is unsuccessful. Beverly Aplikowski, 1742 Gramsie Road, stated that any time an attempt is made to unclog a pipe, there is the risk of breaking the pipe, whi ch will require immediate attention to provide some kind of drainage system, She supported Council action to advertise for bids now, in addition to directing staff to make a final attempt to unclog the existing pipe, MOTION: Mahowald moved, seconded by Hicks, to adopt Resolution 92-61 Approving Plans and Specifications And Ordering Advertisement For Bids In the Matter of Arden Place Storm Sewer Improvements. Motion carried unanimously (4-0). MOTION: Malone moved, seconded by Hicks, to direct the Public Works Department to bring in a firm within the next two weeks to attempt to unclog the existing Arden Place pipe at a maximum cost of $500, Motion carried unanimously (4-0). . Councilmember Mahowald commented that the Public Works Superintendent is on vacation for the next couple of weeks, Acting Clerk Administrator Iago stated that she will forward Council's direction to Public Works Foreman McKinney. ,~ l' 1 ~ . Arden Hills Council 9 August 17, 1992 COUNCIL COMMENTS CITY HALL SITE Acting Clerk Administrator Iago advised that, per direction to solicit quotes for an appraisal on the existing City Hall site/Harstad property/Arden Place drainage area to be accomplished in a speedy fashion, she received one quote from an appraiser who could perform the work in a timely manner. She added that there were other appraisal companies contacted who were interested in providing a quote but were unable to perform the work expediently. Councilmember Mahowald commented that he questioned whether there is an immediate need for an appraisal, so perhaps it would be appropriate to solicit additional quotes. Counci 1 concurred and directed Iago to solicit additional quotes, KUNZE DRAINAGE ISSUE Councilmember Malone drew attention to a drainage issue reported by Robert Kunze, 4073 Valentine Court, in his July . 17, 1992 letter, and asked what action was taken in that regard. Acting Clerk Administrator Iago reported that Public Works Superintendent Winkel has had conversations with Mr, Kunze and sent a letter in response; she would forward a copy of Winkel's correspondence to Council, RESIDENT LETTER REGARDING ANNUAL FEE FOR WATER TESTING Councilmember Malone drew attention to correspondence received from Arden Erickson, 1555 Briarknoll Circle, wherein Mr. Erickson expressed opposition to the annual fee of $5.21, (recently mandated by the Minnesota Department of Health to cover the cost of testing drinking water) which will be collected through City utility billing. He directed staff to respond to Mr. Erickson by acknowledging his correspondence. FERNWOOD AVENUE WATER TOWER Councilmember Malone referred to a letter dated July 31, 1992 from the City Engineer recommending inspection and testing of the interior of the Fernwood Avenue water tower at an estimated cost of $3,000. He suggested waiting until the City's south water tower is paid for before incurring costs relating to the Fernwood Avenue water tower. .

He added that as a result of that performance evaluation, Counci 1 consensus was to approve a salary increase. He suggested Council make a motion to formally approve the salary increase, MOTION: Mahowald moved, seconded by Hicks, to approve a salary increase for Parks Director John Buckley, to step 3 of the 1992 Pay Plan, retroactive to July 1, 1992. Motion carried unanimously (4-0), APPOINTMENT OF CLERK ADMINISTRATOR .

CITY OF ARDEN HILLS MEM:IOOIOUM DATE: August 28, 1992 TO: @ Mayor and City Council FRCK: Terry Post, city Accountant SUB.J>>::T : Authorization to Release Collateral The city has required Norwest Bank to ple::lge securities in the amolll1t of $1,000,000, on it's behalf, at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis. 'Ihe rationale f= requiring this amolll1t of collateral was to have protection above and beyond the FDIC $100,000 level for tax settlement checks and saving a=unt l:alances. 'Ihe City no longer has a savings a=unt with the bank and is now depositing tax settlement checks directly into a goverrnnent securities lIIOney market a=mt. The City maintains average cash l:alances in it's general checking a=mt well below the FDIC $100,000 insurance level. . More inportantly, Norwest Bank began changing fees for it's ple::lged collateral during fourth quarter of 1991. These bank fees are =sting the City about $5,000 per year. ~ON 'Ihe amount of collateral ple::lged appears excessive. 'Ihe exposure for loss to the City in the event of a bank failure appears to be nonexistent given the FDIC $100,000 insurance mnbrella limit. In addition, the continued payment of unbudgeted collateral fees does not seem to be a prudent use of General Fund financial resources. 'Ibis matter has been diSl"'tssed with the City's external auditor, Al:xio, Abdo & Eick, and they have no audit objection to releasing the collateral. REOUESl'EDACrION If Council con=s, they should pass a motion under consent to approve the release of $1,000,000 in collateral being held on the City's behalf frCllll Norwest Bank.

Iago Acting Clerk-Administrator . - City of Arden Hills Keithson Drainage Improvement Objections to Proposed Assessment . Summary and Response July 27, 1992 Summary of Events Reqardinq the Keithson Pond Proiect The original plat for this property showed a pond located in the area of what is now Keithson Drive and the Crimmins and Magers\Tredal lots. This pond was to have been reconfigured and relocated to the rear of the four southernmost lots on the western side of the plat. The reconfigured pond was to have been sized to hold the incremental runoff generated by the impervious surfaces constructed in the development. Based upon a topographic map supplied by E.G. Rud, it was anticipated that the pond would drain in an overland channel that was, and still is, located behind the Crimmins property. Presumably, this had been the drainage route for the original pond. A weir with an approximate elevation of 972 feet above MSL was planned to meter the runoff. Runoff from the street was to have been channeled to the new pond through piping. When the original plat was acted upon by the Council the developer asked if the City's engineer could be used to design the utility work in the plat. Short-Elliot- . Hendrickson, the City's engineer, deferred the request and was never under contract to this developer for this project. The developer, as is always the case, had two options regarding the construction of improvements (Le. , streets and utilities). Either he or the City could build them, and in the latter case, the costs would be 100% assessed. The former approach was chosen, where the builder installs the utilities and upon approval, dedicates them to the City. In either case, the City's engineers would have overseen the project, which is what Short-Elliot-Hendrickson did. Approximately one year after the original plat was approved, the developer asked that the pond easement area be amended. Rather than having it extend behind the four southwesterly lots, the pond and its associated easement was to be concentrated in an area between what are now the lots of Magers/Tredal and Crimmins. This area, which was originally platted as a lot, was to be split and attached to the adjacent lots. A drainage easement was to cover this entire area and parts of both adjoining lots. As with the earlier plan, the pond was to drain overland to the southwest in the existing channel. Since the elevation of the channel had been found to be higher than what had originally been 'believed, the metering weir was eliminated. Also, since the . street runoff no longer had to be carried to the back of the lots, its piping was eliminated. This revision was approved. Page: 1 City of Arden Hills Keithson Drainage Improvement Objections to Proposed Assessment . Summary and Response July 27, 1992 In the spring of 1989, the property owners adjacent to and near the reconfigured ponding area approached the City regarding its unfinished state. In response, the City asked the developer to complete the grading in the easement. He agreed to do so. When the developer attempted to work in the easement area the adjacent residents denied him access. Among the reasons they expressed for doing this were his apparent plans for the removal of trees and other vegetation. The residents then asked the City to solve the drainage problem. In the intervening time the City has developed several solutions to the problem, and each has been subject to criticism by the area's residents. The City has also pumped excess water from the pond a number of times. The City's engineers have now developed a plan for a drainage system that seems acceptable to the residents and goes beyond what had originally been slated for the site. Rather than flowing overland, storm water will be carried in a pipe to an existing pond southwest of the site. Upgraded metering appliances are included in the plan, as are pond . improvements that minimize the removal of vegetation. The improved drainage system will be installed in a easement which is yet to be acquired from George Reiling, the original owner of the platted area, and current owner of the property to the south and west. Apparently, the original plans called for drainage to flow overland across this same property, but no formal easement had been acquired. It may be that the developer assumed the existence of an easement due to the water's previous course across this property. Regardless, the City must now acquire an easement for this improved drainage system. This improvement has been ordered. Benefit, in the amount of $1,500 per lot, is judged to be provided by this improvement. Objections from those residents having the potential of being assessed for this benefit were heard at a public hearing. Their objections and the City's findings regarding them are summarized below. Residents are listed in order of ascending street addresses. Objections should be regarded as having been provided in writing unless otherwise noted. Most oral objections were answered at the June 8, 1992 public hearing, and most of the written objections were restatements of those made orally. .

There were seven plan holders and three bids were received. Following is a list of the . bidders and their bids. An itemized bid tabulation is also attached, The bids were requested with the options of providing either reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) or high density plastic pipe (HDPE) , Contractor RCP HDPE Ro-So Contracting, Inc. $29,508.00 $26,048.00 Brown & Cris, Inc. 33,520,00 31,528.00 W, B, Miller, Inc. 34,389.00 31,655.00 It would be our recommendation that HDPE pipe be used on this project. We have worked with Ro-So Contracting, Inc" on projects in Lexington, Centerville, and Mahtomedi, and have found them to be very cooperative in completing the work to all specifications. The estimated construction cost presented at the various public hearings for this work was $24,000.00. Discussions with the Contractors indicate that the bid was higher due to the limited work area, particularly along Arden Place in front of 1553 Arden Place. Using the overhead figure of 25 %, the project cost based on the low bid using HDPE pipe is $32,560,00. . 1959 SLOAN PLACE, SUITE 200, ST.

The city is well aware of Mr. Johnson's obj ection to the. city trespassing upon his property in order to, as the city. says, ".. .maintain an existing pUblic works structure." The culvert pipe is not an "...existing public works structure" and never has been one. The culvert pipe which was installed in the early 1940's has been vacated for many, many years and has not been in use. The city of Arden Hills has no easement of record to "maintain" this culvert. No easement appears of Mr. Johnson Torren's certificate. Yesterday, the city of Arden Hills, performed work on the culvert pipe which unplugged the culvert and caused water to rush onto Mr. Johnson's property. The culvert pipe end opens in the middle of Mr. Johnson's yard. This action was a trespass upon Mr. Johnson's property without his consent. As you are aware, just a few days earlier, Mr. Johnson and his neighbor refused to sign a Waiver of Trespass to consent to the City of Arden Hills to take the action that they did.

August 27, 1992 File: 520-000-00 Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Arden Hills 1450 West Highway 96 Arden Hills, MN 55112 RE: PLANNING FOR 1993 STREET IMPROVEMENTS Dear Council Members: As the City Council is in the midst of budgeting for 1993, it is important that the City consider funding for street rehabilitation and pavement maintenance during next year's construction season. We will be working with Public Works staff in early September to update the rating of each of the streets within the City. Based on our findings, we anticipate bringing a recommendation to your September 2!\ 1992, City Council meeting as to a possible 1993 construction project. Current . ratings indicate that the next two streets requiring reconstruction are 1) Bussard Court from Snelling Avenue to the west cul-de-sac, and 2) Dunlap Avenue from Ingerson Road to Cannon Avenue. The new street ratings will likely add other streets to this list. It would also be prudent to consider a bituminous overlay and seal coat project in 1993. As you know, it is vital to begin preparation of a 1993 Street Construction Project during the fall and winter of 1992, This allows for preparation of the feasibility study and gathering of the field information so that the necessary public and assessment hearings can be held during the winter. Consequently, bids can be taken early in 1993 and work could begin immediately in the spring, We will be in attendance at your August 31, 1992, City Council meeting to further discuss this matter.

TRUTH IN TAXATION PROVISIONS THAT CITIES SHOULD BE A WARE OF FOR THE TAXES PAYABLE YEAR 1993 . Selection or the Date, Time and Place rOt the Public Hear-Ing l. The county auditor is responsible for the c,oordination of the selection of Truth in Taxation hearin~ dates for the school districts and cities within the county. The school districts make t eir selections first, and then the cities, No school district or city may select the second Tuesday in December for its hearing date (December 8 in 1992), This date is reserved by law for the counties to hold their public hearings. The goal is that the county government and all of the school districts and cities within the county will have hearing dates scheduled for an allowable day and an allowable time in the time period of November 29 to December 20, and that there will be no conflict of hearing dates for the county with any school district or city within the cOtmty, for a school district with any city within the school district, or for a city with any school district within < the city, ~ - ~ 2, The dates selected for initial hearinrs' and for continuation hearin~~ if necessa~, must r i all fall within the time period of ovember 29, 1992 through ecember 2 , 1992 i (effectively November 30 through December 21 this year, since both November 29,1992 and December 20, 1992 fall on a.~lll1day). u__~~ _u~__ _ _ . ,I ---. The continuation hearing date selected must bc at least 5 business days after the initial .'1 I . hearing date but no more than 14 business dab after the initial rbIic hearinA The last ) day that a continuation hearing may be held is ecembcr 20, 199 (effectivel~ ecember ! 21 this year). If a December 21, 1992 date is selected for a continuation earing, the ~ initial hearin~ could be held no later than December 14, 1992, Only one continuation ". " hearing date IS allowed, \ 3, On or before August 20,1992 the county auditor must notify the clerk of each citywithin ; the county of the dates on which the school districts will be holding their public hearings, as well as their selected dates for continuation hearings if continued hearings become necessary , 4, On or before September 15, 1992 the ~overnin~ body of each city must certify to the county auditor(s} of the county(ies) in w ich the city is located the date that it has selected for its public hearing, as well as a date for a continuation hearing if a continued hearing becomes necessary. If not certified by this date, the county auditor (or home county auditor in the case of cities located in two or more counties) will assign the hearing date. The date for the city hearing must not conflict with the county hearing or with the hearing of any school district located within the city. Since the county auditor of each county must coordinate the hearings held within his or her county to prevent conflicts, it is not sufficient for a city located in two Or more counties to notify just the home County auditor, 5. All school districts and cities must hold their public hearin~ be'tween November 29 and Oecember 20, 1992 (effectively November 30 to Decem er 21 this year, 'since both . November 29 and December 20 fall on a Sunday, and the public hearing may not be held on a Sunday). . .. -1. . :JU -~---- ..,... .,",-~'~'~'~ ," . ~~--. ~ ~"". ';'T,:~1i .

Truth in Taxation public heari!1~s cannot be held before November 3D, 1992. Among other things, this restriction al ows the counties to get the parcel specific notices delivered to property owners prior to the public hearings. Also, these hearings cannot' . be held after December 21, 1992, This restriction gives the county auditors time to complete the tax lists for payable 1993 and the county treasurers time to mail out the property tax statements for payable 1993 by the statutory deadline. 6.

I contacted Attorney Filla regarding Council participation in the referendum program. He advised Councilmembers may encourage voters to vote on election day and provide information on the proposed referendum, but cannot encourage voters to pass the referendum. Filla further stated that the City may spend money to provide residents with informational materials relating to the referendum.

Arden Hills Council 4 August 17, 1992 MOTION: Malone moved, seconded by Mahowald, to adopt Resolution No, 92-60 Adopting Final Assessment Roll In The Matter of The 1992 Round Lake Road West Cold In-Place Recycling Improvements, Motion carried unanimously (4- 0), MOTION: Malone moved, seconded by Mahowald, to adopt Resolution No, 92-59 Authorizing Execution Of Contract In The Matter Of The 1992 Round Lake Road West Cold In-Place Recyc1 ing Improvement. Motion carried unanimously (4-0), UNFINISHED AND NEW BUSINESS CASE 92-14: SUP - HOME OCCUPATION 3966 GLENVIEW AVENUE Planner Bergly stated that Case 92-14 is an application for a special use permit (SUP) for a beauty salon home occupation at 3966 Glenview Avenue. He explained the location of the home and that the business is proposed to be operated from the walkout lower 1 eve I of attached garage, . Bergly advised that the Planning Commission held a public hearing on this case on August 5 , where the only public comments expressed were from a neighbor and related to neighborhood security, precedent setting, and potential traffic congestion concerns, Bergly stated that the Planning Commission recommended: 1) Waiving the Development Moratorium because this application meets the requirements of both the existing and proposed ordinance and will not impact development or use of neighboring property, and, 2 ) Approval of an SUP with six conditions suggested by Bergly and a seventh condition relating to allowed hours of operation. He added that the City Attorney reviewed the conditions and made minor language revisions to assure the permit is granted only to the property "owner" (rather than "resident") and operation be allowed only at the 3966 Glenview residence. Councilmember Malone questioned whether it is appropriate to consider an SUP or a home occupation permit. planner Bergly stated that under current ordinance, and the proposed amendments to the zoning ordinance, an SUP would be appropriate. Bergly explained that under the proposed . revision, a home business (such as home office without patrons) does not require an SUP; however, a beauty salon which would depend upon patrons coming to the residence, does require a SUP. Attorney Miller added that typically an SUP runs with the land rather than with the owner, but . Arden Hills Council 5 August 17, 1992 Council could add yet another condition whereby the SUP would expire upon the sale of the property. MOTION: Mahowald moved, seconded by Malone, relative to Case 92-14, to waive the Development Moratorium, and approve a special use permit for home beauty salon occupation with the following conditions: 1. The applicant's State Cosmetology License will be filed with the permit when available, 2, Only one work station will be provided, 3, Only the owner of the dwelling is authorized to provide cosmetology services, 4, The driveway will be used for patron parking (i.e.; no on-street patron parking), 5, There will be no external evidence of the home occupation, 6, Exterior lighting will be of a "residential" type and will not be obtrusive to neighboring property, 7, The business must close by 7:00 p.m., Monday- Friday, and by 4:00 p.m, on Saturday, 8. The special use permit applies only to the current . homeowner and only at the residence at 3966 Glenview Avenue, and 9. The special use permit will expire upon sale of the property at 3966 Glenview Avenue, The applicant, Cynthia Garretson, stated that hours of operation, outlined within condition 7 of above motion, were a compromise during discussions with the Planning Commission, however, she preferred some flexibility of those hours. She added that she has a limited time in which to renew her State Cosmetology License, and is required to note her anticipated hours of operation on that application, Council discussed the issue of whether or not to regulate hours of operation. Acting Clerk Administrator Iago reported that there is one other SUP in the City for a beauty salon; that SUP makes no regulation of salon hours, that salon is still in operation, and there have been no complaints received. MOTION: Sather moved, seconded by Hicks, to amend the above motion by striking condition 7. Motion to amend carried unanimously (4-0). ORIGINAL MOTION: Council then voted upon the original motion, . (made by Mahowald and seconded by Malone) as stated except striking condition 7. Motion carried unanimously (4-0). . Arden Hills Council 6 August 17, 1992 CASE 92-15: SUP AMENDMENT & HEIGHT VARIANCE Il~THEL COLLEGE Council was given an opportunity to view a model of the Community Life Center auditorium proposed to be built on the Bethel College campus. Planner Bergly explained that in 1981, the City granted a special use permit (SUP) for a Master Plan for the college. He added that due to a reconfiguration of the footprint and height of the Community Life Center, staff recommends treating this matter as an SUP amendment with a height variance, Bergly explained the three issues relative to this case: 1) The original Master Plan called for a building nearer to Valentine Lake, however, current shoreland regulations require a 50' setback. The college chose to adjust the Master Plan (requiring an amendment to the SUP) rather than seek a shoreland setback variance, 2) An existing open ditch in the area would flow very close to the edge of the proposed Community Life Center, therefore an underground storm sewer is being . proposed, 3) The City's zoning ordinance allows a maximum height of 35' but spells out four criteria for a variance. For performing arts acoustical and symbolic/image reasons, the proposed building would be 75', which would require a 40' variance, All four criteria for a height variance have been satisfied. (For purposes of comparison, North Heights Church was granted a 30'+ height variance.) Councilmember Hicks asked if Rice Creek Watershed District has considered the water management changes, Bergly stated that his understanding is that everything has been approved except for a Maintenance Agreement, which is currently being negotiated by the attorneys involved. Bergly advised that Planning commission recommended: 1) Waiving the Development Moratorium because this application meets the requirements of both the existing and proposed ordinance and will not impact development or use of neighboring property, and, 2 ) Approval of an SUP amendment with height variance on the conditions that: A) Upon approval, building and roadway changes are made to the Master plan for filing with the SUP, . B) other City approved improvements not incorporated on the Plan, be incorporated on the Plan, C) The new Plan contain City approval date, and D) Rice Creek Watershed District approves a Maintenance Agreement relative to drainage. . Arden Hills Council 7 August 17, 1992 Councilmember Malone opened discussion regarding the height issue. He commented that it should be understood that this is a unique circumstance in that this building provides a monument type building for the entrance to the college and it does not obstruct views of other properties. Dave Lissner, representing the college, emphasized that ln considering the SUP amendment, it should be noted that the concept of the proposed building has not changed from the original Master Plan, He added that it is understood that the height variance would only apply to this particular set of plans. Planner Bergly agreed that if a height variance were granted, it would be attached to this particular set of plans, and any substantial revisions to the plans would require Council reconsideration. Norris Strawbridge, architect for the college, clarified the heights of specific points along the roofline of the proposed building, the maximum point being 7S' height, MOTION: Hicks moved, seconded by Malone, relative to Case 92- . IS. Community Life Center at Bethel College, to: 1) Waive the Development Moratorium, and 2) Approve amendment to SUP relative to the location of the building, on the conditions that: A) Upon approval, building and roadway changes are made to the Master Plan for filing with the SUP, B) Other City-approved improvements not incorporated on the Plan, be added to the Plan, C) The new Plan contain City approval date, and D) Rice Creek Watershed District approves a Maintenance Agreement relative to drainage; and 3) Approve the granting of a height variance of 40' (allowing a maximum building height of 7S'). This variance is applicable only to this structure and granted in support of the unique design of the structure on the basis that all height variance criteria has been satisfied. Motion carried unanimously (4-0). ZONING ORDINANCE AMENDMENTS Councilmember Malone commented that he has some specific . questions relative to this agenda item and would suggest tabling. Planner Bergly stated that at this time, all that is being requested is to begin the process of review of the proposed amendment; indicated that Council may wish to hold a joint session with Planning commission to discuss . Arden Hills Council 8 August 17, 1992 revisions. Malone reiterated this issue should be deferred at least until Council's October or November worksessions, MOTION: Malone moved, seconded by Mahowald, to table the agenda item relating to zoning ordinance amendments, Motion carried unanimously (4-0), RESOLUTION 92-61 - PLANS & SPECS & AUTHORIZING BIDS ARDEN PLACE STORM SEWER Counci I reviewed quotes compiled by Public Works Superintendent Winkel for the cleaning of Arden Place storm sewer. Councilmember Malone commented that if a final attempt is made at unclogging the existing pipe in the Arden Place area, at a cost of approximately $100 per hour, it would be prudent to try for a limited number of hours rather than spend significant money to no avail. Councilmember Mahowald said he recalled specifically directing the Public Works Department, during the last discussion of this matter, to accomplish one final attempt . to unclog the pipe assuming a reasonable cost, He suggested that, in the interest of time, Council authorize advertising for bids for the Arden Place storm sewer project, in case the attempt to unclog the existing pipe is unsuccessful. Beverly Aplikowski, 1742 Gramsie Road, stated that any time an attempt is made to unclog a pipe, there is the risk of breaking the pipe, which will require immediate attention to provide some kind of drainage system. She supported Council action to advertise for bids now, in addition to directing staff to make a final attempt to unclog the existing pipe, MOTION: Mahowald moved, seconded by Hicks, to adopt Resolution 92-61 Approving plans and Specifications And Ordering Advertisement For Bids In the Matter of Arden Place Storm Sewer Improvements, Motion carried unanimously (4-0). MOTION: Malone moved, seconded by Hicks, to direct the Public Works Department to bring in a firm within the next two weeks to attempt to unclog the existing Arden place pipe at a maximum cost of $500, Motion carried unanimously (4-0) . . Councilmember Mahowald commented that the Public Works Superintendent is on vacation for the next couple of weeks. Acting Clerk Administrator Iago stated that she will forward Council's direction to Public Works Foreman McKinney. --- 0;., . Arden Hills Council 9 August 17, 1992 COUNCIL COMMENTS CITY HALL SITE Acting Clerk Administrator Iago advised that, per direction to solicit quotes for an appraisal on the existing City Hall site/Harstad property/Arden Place drainage area to be accomplished in a speedy fashion, she received one quote from an appraiser who could perform the work in a timely manner. She added that there Were other appraisal companies contacted who Were interested in providing a quote but Were unable to perform the work expediently, Councilmember Mahowald commented that he questioned whether there is an immediate need for an appraisal, so perhaps it would be appropriate to solicit additional quotes.

CITY OF ARDEN HILIB MEH:ImNDUM DATE: August 28, 1992 iU: @ Mayor and city Council FRCM: Terry Post, City 1lcoountant stJElJD:)T : Authorization to Release Collateral The city has required Norwest Bank to pledge securities in the am::Rlllt of $1,000,000, on it's behalf, at the Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis. The rationale for requiring this amount of collateral was to have protection above and beyorxJ. the FDIC $100, 000 level for tax settlement checks and saving a=mt balances. The City no longer has a savings a=mt with the bank and is rKM depositing tax settlement checks directly into a goverrunent securities money market account. The City maintains average cash balances in it's general checking a=mt well below the FDIC $100,000 insurance level. . More i1rqx>rtantly, Norwest Bank began changing fees for it's pledged collateral during fourth quarter of 1991. These bank fees are costing the city about $5,000 per year. RECX::MMENDATION The amount of collateral pledged appears excessive. The exposure for loss to the city in the event of a bank failure appears to be nonexistent given the FDIC $100,000 insurance umbrella limit. In addition, the continued payment of unb.Jdgeted collateral fees does not seem to be a prudent use of General Fund financial resources. This matter has been clisc'lssed with the city's external audit=, Al:do, Ab:lo & Eick, and they have no audit objection to releasing the collateral. RIDUESrED ACTION If Council con=s, they should pass a motion under consent to approve the release of $1,000,000 in collateral being held on the City's behalf I from Norwest Bank. .~ , TP:rk . ~ , . ! ~. I i . ! , City of Arden Hills Keithson Drainage Improvement Objections to Proposed Assessment Summary and Response ... July 27, 1992 Summary of Events Reqardinq the Keithson Pond Proiect The original plat for this property showed a pond located in the area of what is now Keithson Drive and the Crimmins and Magers\Tredal lots. This pond was to have been reconfigured and relocated to the rear of the four southernmost lots on the western side of the plat. The reconfigured pond was to have been sized to hold the incremental runoff generated by the impervious surfaces constructed in the development. Based upon a topographic map supplied by E.G. Rud, it was anticipated that the pond would drain in an overland channel that was, and still is, located behind the Crimmins property. Presumably, this had been the drainage route for the original pond. A weir with an approximate elevation of 972 feet above MSL was planned to meter the runoff. Runoff from the street was to have been channeled to the new pond through piping. When the original plat was acted upon by the Council the developer asked if the City's engineer could be used to design the utility work in the plat. Short-Elliot- Hendrickson, the City's engineer, deferred the request and . was never under contract to this developer for this project. The developer, as is always the case, had two options regarding the construction of improvements (i.e., streets and utilities). Either he or the City could build them, and in the latter case, the costs would be 100% assessed. The former approach was chosen, where the builder installs the utilities and upon approval, dedicates them to the City. In either case, the City's engineers would have overseen the project, which is what Short-Elliot-Hendrickson did. Approximately one year after the original plat was approved, the developer asked that the pond easement area be amended. , Rather than having it extend behind the four southwesterly lots, the pond and its associated easement was to be concentrated in an area between what are now the lots of Magers/Tredal and Crimmins. This area, which was originally platted as a lot, was to be split and attached to the adjacent lots. A drainage easement was to cover this entire area and parts of both adjoining lots. As with the earlier plan, the pond was to drain overland to the southwest in the existing channel. Since the elevation of the channel had been found to be higher than what had originally been "believed, the metering weir was eliminated. Also, since the street runoff no longer had to be carried to the back of the ... lots, its piping was eliminated. This revision was approved. , w ~ i ~ ~ Page: 1 City of Arden Hills Keithson Drainage Improvement Objections to Proposed Assessment Summary and Response . July 27, 1992 In the spring of 1989, the property owners adjacent to and near the reconfigured ponding area approached the City regarding its unfinished state. In response, the City asked the developer to complete the grading in the easement. He agreed to do so. When the developer attempted to work in the easement area the adjacent residents denied him access. Among the reasons they expressed for doing this were his apparent plans for the removal of trees and other vegetation. The residents then asked the City to solve the drainage problem. In the intervening time the City has developed several solutions to the problem, and each has been subject to criticism by the area's residents. The City has also pumped excess water from the pond a number of times. The City's engineers have now developed a plan for a drainage system that seems acceptable to the residents and goes beyond what had originally been slated for the site. Rather than flowing overland, storm water will be carried in a pipe to an existing pond southwest of the site. Upgraded metering appliances are included in the plan, as are pond . improvements that minimize the removal of vegetation. The improved drainage system will be installed in a easement which is yet to be acquired from George Reiling, the original owner of the platted area, and current owner of the property to the south and west. Apparently, the original plans called for drainage to flow overland across this same property, but no formal easement had been acquired. It may be that the developer assumed the existence of an easement due to the water's previous course across this property. Regardless, the City must now acquire an easement for this improved drainage system. This improvement has been ordered. Benefit, in the amount of $1,500 per lot, is judged to be provided by this improvement. Objections from those residents having the potential of being assessed for this benefit were heard at a public hearing. Their objections and the City's findings regarding them are summarized below. Residents are listed in order of ascending street addresses. Objections should be regarded as having been provided in writing unless otherwise noted. Most oral objections were answered at the June 8, 1992 public hearing, and most of the written objections were restatements of those made orally. .

There were seven plan holders and three bids were received. Following is a list of the - bidders and their bids. An itemized bid tabulation is also attached. The bids were requested with the options of providing either reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) or high density plastic pipe (HDPE). Contractor RCP HDPE Ro~So Contracting, Inc. $29,508.00 $26,048.00 Brown & Cris, Inc. 33,520.00 31,528.00 W. B. Miller, Inc. 34,389.00 31,655.00 It would be our recommendation that HDPE pipe be used on this project. We have worked with Ro-So Contracting, Inc., on projects in Lexington, Centerville, and Mahtomedi, and have found them to be very cooperative in completing the work to all specifications. The estimated construction cost presented at the various public hearings for this work was $24,000.00. Discussions with the Contractors indicate that the bid was higher due to the limited work area, particularly along Arden Place in front of 1553 Arden Place. Using the overhead figure of 25 %, the project cost based on the low bid using HDPE pipe is $32,560.00. e 1959 SLOAN PLACE, SUITE 200. ST.

Honorable Mayor and City Council August 27, 1992 Page Two Based on our experience with Ro-So Contracting, Inc., we are prepared to recommend award of the project to them as the lowest responsible bidder. The City Council, however, may choose to delay this award until such time that an assessment hearing can be held. Attached for your consideration is a resolution ordering preparation of the assessment roll for an assessment hearing and determining the costs to be assessed. The Council also has the option of not assessing the project and awarding the project. I have worked this past week with Public Works staff to again attempt to flush the existing pipe. This work was to be done today by a local contractor chosen from quotes to City staff. Mr. Mike McKinney and I attempted to work with residents on the south side of Arden Place to dig a small hole at a suspected blockage.

August 27, 1992 File: 520-000~OO Honorable Mayor and City Council City of Arden Hills 1450 West Highway 96 Arden Hills, MN 55112 RE: PLANNING FOR 1993 STREET IMPROVEMENTS Dear Council Members: As the City Council is in the midst of budgeting for 1993, it is important that the City consider funding for street rehabilitation and pavement maintenance during next year's construction season. We will be working with Public Works staff in early September to update the rating of each of the streets within the City. Based on our findings, we anticipate bringing a recommendation to your September 23, 1992, City Council meeting as to a possible 1993 construction project. Current - ratings indicate that the next two streets requiring reconstruction are 1) Bussard Court from Snelling Avenue to the west cul-de-sac, and 2) Dunlap Avenue from Ingerson Road to Cannon Avenue. The new street ratings will likely add other streets to this list. It would also be prudent to consider a bituminous overlay and seal coat project in 1993. As you know, it is vital to begin preparation of a 1993 Street Construction Project during the fall and winter of 1992. This allows for preparation of the feasibility study and gathering of the field information so that the necessary public and assessment hearings can be held during the winter. Consequently, bids can be taken early in 1993 and work could begin immediately in the spring. We will be in attendance at your August 31, 1992, City Council meeting to further discuss this matter.

The county auditor is respoIt~ible for the coordination of the selection of Truth in Taxation hearilW dates for the school districts and cities within the county. The school districts make t eir selections first, and then the cities. No school district or city may select the second Tuesday in December for its hearing date (December 8 in 1992), This date is reserved by law for the counties to hold their public hearings, The goal is that the COunty government and all of the school districts and cities within the county will have hearing dates scheduled for an allowable day and an allowable time in the time period of November 29 to December 20, and that there will be no conflict of hearing dates for the county with any schaal district Or city within the county, for a school .; district with any city withillthe school district, or for a city with any school district within .~ the city. .; t - . 2.
