Financing Plan for Tax Increment Financing District #3. Administrator Person verified publication of the notice of hearing in the New Brighton Bulletin on Wednesday, Apri 1 14 and 21, 1993. -- . . Arden Hill s Counci 1 2 Apri 1 26, 1993 Administrator Person reported that the City has received correspondence from Ramsey County advising of their general concerns regarding the creation of tax increment financing districts in Ramsey County. Mayor Sather stated that Carolyn Drude, Executive Vice President/Director of Ehlers and Associates (consultants to the City) would make a presentation, followed by input and questions from the Council and the pub li c . Ms. Drude explained that the creation of TIF District No. 3 is being considered in order to provide financial assistance to Developer John Arkell to complete a proposed senior housing project called Cottage Lifestyles, which would inc1 ude a 60 -unit, two-story apartment building located on four parcels west of Cleveland Avenue, south of County Road E2 and north of Thom Drive in the City of Arden Hills. Drude added that the project would not be possible without tax increment financing, and the developer plans to finance . the project and be reimbursed through TIF per a developer's agreement. She added that the City is not proposing any bonds for this project. The Counci 1 , having discussed this matter at length on previous occasions, had no questions. When invited, there were no questions from the public. The public hearing was closed at 7:37 p.m. Action was taken under "Unfinished and New Business".

Approve List of Claims/Payroll. . Arden Hills Council 3 Apri 1 26, 1993 PUBLIC COMMENTS Lucia Miklas, 1696 Chatham Avenue, voiced her concern about the recent utility bill increases, which raised her bill by 25%. She stated that she had received the notice of the impending increase, but did not believe it would affect her. Miklas asked what constitutes the increase, and if the City is looking at the financial management of the fund. Councilmember Malone responded saying that, as liaison to the Finance Committee, he is aware that the fund is being watched closely. Malone explained that the City pays the MWCC for sewer service on a per gallon basis, and that amount has raised from $385,000 in 1990, to $449,000 in 1991, to $518,000 in 1992, and is expected to be $546,000 in 1993. He added that such an increase is substantial and must be passed on to the customer. . Malone reported that the City's sewer fund has been "in the red" for two years because the City has been charging 1 ess than what is needed to balance the fund. He said the fund's cash balance has been providing subsidy, but now that cash balance has dropped to a point where it can no longer provide that subsidy. Miklas asked why the MWCC has such significant increases. Malone said he can't speak to that matter directly, but knows that there are substantial pollution control measures the MWCC must undertake. City Accountant Post added that the MWCC has also expanded their plant and operations and opened new interceptors, and those capital costs are being spread amongst the user base. Miklas asked why the City does not charge a per gallon rate. Malone said that matt,;,r has been discussed, but such action would require a means of measuring/metering sewer use and it would be difficult to administer. He said contribution to sewer outflow oftentimes is in direct correlation with water use, but that is not so in instances where a large volume of water is used for lawn sprinkling or pools, etc. He stated that large commercial users are charged on the basis of volume and content of sewage. . Miklas said her main objection is that, as a single person in her household. she is charged the same as a large family would be charged. She added that she has experienced mismanagement and waste in government, and is concerned that . Arden Hills Council 4 Apri 1 26, 1993 things such as utilities and taxes are getting so high while citizen's incomes are not keeping up. UNFINISHED AND NEW BUSINESS MODIFICATION OF ORIGINAL BERM EDGEWATER ESTATES - PAUL KELEHER Administrator Person drew attention to a map! dated March 24, 1993, of Edgewater Estates at the corner of Brueberry Lane and Parkshore Drive which incorporates previous Council and Planning Commission discussions. Person noted that the map calls for drainage in front of unit 1672, and lowering of the berm in front of unit 1676 to accommodate a resident who is in a wheelchair and has requested improved visibility. Person reported that the Planning Commission has approved the modifications to the berm if the issues of height and . accessibility to sanitary sewer easement are resolved between the affected homeowners and the City Engineer and the Public Works Superintendent. Person advised that those issues have been resolved to the satisfaction of the Engineer and Public Works Superintendent by an agreement by the Townhome Association to in(:orporate into their by-laws the understanding that the Townhome Association will be responsible for maintaining or ' - rep.l.aClng landscaping in drainage and utility easements if the City ~s required to perform utility maintenance work within the easements. Councilmember Probst stated that this matter has been before the Planning Commission for quite some ,- originally "lme, prompt.ed by the fact that the berm was not built according to the original plan. He stated that the action proposed would now take care of the issues of drainage and responsibility for landscaping in the event of ut.ility maintenance work ~n the easement. Councilmember Malone asked if the culvert noted on the March 24, 1993 map will remain in place. Person replied that the culvert is planned to remain for additional drainage purposes. Councilmember Aplikowski expressed concern that perhaps the . City needs to make an even better effort to follow up on developments to assure that what has been promised is actually accomplished. --------------- . Arden Hills Council 5 April 26, 1993 MOTION: Probst moved, seconded by Malone, to approve berm modifications for Edgewater Estates, as outlined on the map dated March 24, 1993, subject to written evidence that the Townhome Association agrees to be responsible for maintenance and replacement of landscaping in the drainage and utility easements in the event the City is required to perform utility maintenance work within the easement. Motion carried unanimously (4-0). RESOLUTION NO. 93-29 - PROGRAM MODIFICATION OF DEVELOPMENT DISTRICT #1 & APPROVAL OF TIF PLAN FOR TIF DISTRICT #3 A public hearing regarding this matter was conducted earlier during this evening's meeting. MOTION: Malone moved, seconded by Sather, to adopt Resolution 93-29 Relating To Development District No. 1, Tax Increment Financing District No. 3; Adopting An . Amendment To The Development Program And Approving A Tax Increment Financing Plan Therefor And The Execution And Delivery Of Certain Documents In Connection Therewith. Motion carried unanimously (4-0). COUNCIL COMMENTS TRAILERS AT NCR~H HEIGH7S CHURCH Councilmember Malone said he has observed that trailers, which have been parked on the southerly part of the North Heights Church property, have recently been moved to another location on the property. He suggested staff check into whether the trailers should be there. UTILITY RATES Councilmember Malone reported that st. Paul Water Utility, from which the City purchases water, is in the process of establishing a 13% increase for summer water rates and an 8% increase for winter water rates. He added that there is a strong recommendation that the City follow suit by implementing rates with a differential rate structure. Administrator Person reported that several residents have contacted the City in this regard and are interested in . attending the May 10, 1993 Council meeting. . Arden Hills Council 6 April 26. 1993 PUBLIC WORKS/SAFETY UPDATE Councilmember Aplikowski reported that the Public Works and Safety Committee has discussed whether an additional City committee should be established, and have concluded that such action is not necessary. she added that the Committee discussed areas of conservation, recycling, crime watch. etc. , and noted that there is not much being done in the area of ci vi 1 defense. She reported that Bill Gillies has volunteered to head civil defense efforts, HUMAN RIGHTS COMMITTEE UPDATE Councilmember ~robst reported that he attended his first meeting with the Human Rights Committee and found them to be a clearly dedicated group or people, however, because of changes at the state level, the focus and direction of the group has changed, and the Committee and Council may wish to reconsider their mission statement. He suggested that the matter of their mission statement, focus and direction be placed on the next Council worksession agenda. . HARSTAD PROPERTY Mayor Sather recognized and introduced Marty Harstad in the audience. Sather reported that it has come to the attention of the City that Mr. Harstad has a "small window of opportunity" to develop a 64-unit townhome racility at the current City Hall si te if the City is interested in a land swap. Council and Harstad discussed the possible land swap which would entail trading the current City Hall 7-acre property plus additional cash (the figure to be negotiated) in exchange for Harstad's 9.9 acre parcel at the southwest corner of Round Lake. Harstad explained that hp is under a deadline to make a decision as to whether he will develop the current City Hall property as his next project. He said he would be willing to facilitate the vacation of the City Hall property ~n a staged timeline to allow the City time to get the Harstad pronertv ready for City us,"?, He showed a concept plan for . . the d~velo!?me?1t of t.he ~nrrent City Hall property, and a map of the Harstad property. Council and Harstad discussed what amount of additional cash . would be an agreeable amount to make the land swap. During the brier discussion, the parties were unable to come to an. mutually agreeable range. . Arden Hills Council 7 April 26, 1993 Councilmembers Malone and Probst questioned whether the appraisal figures are an accurate reflection of the properties and the potential uses of the properties. Probst reminded Council that the City's first choice of property for a new City Hall is still under consideration but there lS no commitment yet. Council briefly discussed the hurdles which would need to be addressed relating to price negotiation, new appraisals, property rezoning, access issues, availability of tax increment financing, vacation of the current City Hall property, etc. Sather commented that he would be interested in further negotiations to see if the price issue could be negotiated to a mutually agreeable amount. ADJOURN . MOTION: Probst moved, seconded by Aplikowski, to adjourn the meeting at 8:27 p.m. Motion carried unanimously (4-0). Thomas R. Sather, Mayor Dorothy A. Person, Clerk Administrator NOTICE OF MEETINGS: The next regular Council meeting will be held May 10, 1993 at 7:30 p.m. at City Hall, The next Counci 1 worksession will be held May 18, 1993 at 4:30 p.m. . . CITY OP ARDEN HILLS RAMSEY COmITY, HINIIlBSOTA RESOLUTION NO. 93-30 A RESOLUTION RELATING TO THE DISPOSITION OP REAL PROPERTY WHEREAS, the City is considering the final sale of the following described property which has been used as the site for a sanitary sewer system lift station; Unplatted Land in Section 21 Township 30 Range 23, the North 150 ft. of the South 597.5 ft. of the East 100 ft. West of the Westerly line of the Anoka cutoff of the Northeast ~ of the Southeast ~ of Section 21 Township 30 Range 23. (PIN: 21-30-23-41-0003). WHEREAS, the City's Director of Public Works has indicated that the operation of a sanitary sewer system lift station on this site is no longer necessary for utilization of the City's Sanitary Sewer System. WHEREAS, the City Council has reviewed the City's . Comprehensive Plan in regard to the utilization of this property. NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved that the Arden Hills City Council hereby determines that the proposed sale of the lift station site has no relationship to the City's Comprehensive Municipal Plan; that this matter need not be referred to the City's planning commission for review; and that the lift station site may be sold as the Council determines in the City's best interests. PASSED AND ADOPTED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARDEN HILLS THIS 10TH DAY OF MAY, 1993. Thomas R. Sather, Mayor ATTEST: Dorothy A. Person, City Administrator . . DATE: November 5, 1992 TO: Dorothy A. Person, City Administrator ~ FROM: catherine J. Iago, Deputy Clerk/Zoning Administrator RE: Review of Comprehensive Plan Relating to Sale of City Property - Highway 10 and Brueberry Lane, Lift station #10, 4255 Old Highway 10 As per your request of 11-3-92, I have reviewed the Comprehensive Plan to identify development guidelines for the above mentioned property, as outlined in the plan adopted by Council June 14, 1982. The following items are noted for your information: 1- Map #2 is shown on page 8 of the Plan and identifies this site as "site C". Under the "Development Potential" title on Page 13, it states; "A graduation of residential densities, increasing from north to south is considered reasonable because of the (site) relationship to 1-694." Since the adoption of this plan, a portion of the 48-acre site, identified has developed under a POD known as Edgewater Estates. . The POD contains a gradation of residential densities from north to south, beginning with R-1 single Family site on Wedgewood Circle, an R-3 Townhouse Development on Brueberry Lane and an R-3 Multi- tenant Complex on Parkshore Drive. 2. Under the section identified as "The Plan", page 20, section 1- RESIDENTIAL. (b) Medium Density, paragraph 2 recognizes this area as one of three areas designated for medium density residential use; Item (2) " the parcel adjacent to 1-694 and Old Highway 10." It appears this reference was to the entire 48-acre undeveloped site, which has been partially developed since the plan was adopted. It should also be noted that Council had previously approved a PUD for continental Development company, for a 64-unit apartment complex, on the parcel located south of parkshore Drive and north of 1-694. In review of the Comprehensive Plan, noting the above two references, it appears that the sale of this property for a Townhouse development would have no negative impact on this area and in fact would be consistent with the adopted plan. The New Brighton Sewer Interceptor utility installation was accomplished in 1988-89, at which time Lift station #10 was abandoned. Public Works Superintendent Dan Winkel may be able to . provide further input on the sanitary sewer connection and abandonment of the lift station. cc: Public Works Superintendent Winkel MAY- 6-93 THU 2:58 MAIER STEWART ASSOC.

CITY OF ARDEN HILLS RAMSEY COUNTY, MINNESOTA A RESOLUTION ADOPTING FINAL ASSESSMENT ROLL IN TIm MATTER OF TIm 1993 PAVEMENT MAINTENANCE IMPROVEMENT WHEREAS, upon due notice property made as requited by law, the Arden Hills City Council has met and heard and passed upon all objections to the proposed assessment for the 1993 Pavement Maintenance Improvement and has detennined the amount to be assessed against each individual property as the Council deems just; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Arden Hills, Minnesota: 1. Final assessment roll, a copy of which is attached hereto and incorporated herein by this reference, is hereby accepted and adopted and shall constitute the special assessment against the lands therein named. Each such tract of land in the assessment roll is hereby found to be benefitted by the improvement in an amount not less than the amount of the assessment levied against it. 2. Such assessment shall be payable in equal annual installments, including both principal and . interest, amortized in such amount annually as is required to pay the principal with interest as 8 % over a period of three years for assessments less than $500 and five years for assessments equal to or greater than $500. 3. The owner of any property so assessed. may, at any time prior to certification to the County Auditor of the assessment or the first installment thereof, pay to the City Treasurer the whole of the assessment on such property. with interest accrued to the date of payment; except that no interest shall be charged if the entire assessment is paid within 30 days after the adoption of this Resolution. Prepayment may also be made after the certification of the assessment or first installment thereof by paying to the City Treasurer I Auditor the entire amount of the assessment remaining unpaid with interest. In the case of a payment made before November 15, interest will be calculated through December 31 of the next succeeding year. 4. The City Administrator shall transmit to the County Auditor a certified duplicate of the attached assessment roll to be extended on the property tax lists of the County. Such assessment shall be collected and paid over in the same manner as other municipal taxes. Passed and adopted this 10th day of May, 1993. ATTEST: Thomas R. Sather, Mayor . Dorothy A.

May 10, 1993, City Council meeting at City Hall. A revised assessment roll, based on $2.98 per assessable front foot, has been provided to City staff. Customarily, the City Council has not requested individual copies of this assessment roll, but you may wish to see if they want their own copy. If so, copies could be made from the roll you have. Each individual property owner has received a mailed notice stating their assessable front footage and proposed assessment. As we've discussed, approximately 20 calls have been received from homeowners of the 612 properties proposed to be assessed. The calls primarily question the method of calculating assessable front footage for odd-shaped lots, lots on cul-de-sacs or comer lots. The calculation methods are clearly defined in the City Assessment Manual adopted in November 1990. All footage calculations have been documented and will be available for individual discussion at the assessment hearing. We would expect, based on previous assessment hearings for similar projects, that several property owners will ask that the City Council reduce their assessments. The City Council has the ability to reduce any assessment and/or vary from the Assessment Manual for individual properties. Reduction in any property's assessment would not alter the assessment rate of $2.98 per foot or $1lI.78 per townhouse unit. Two residents on the corner of Dellview Avenue and Gramsie Road, Mr. Paul Crosby and Mr. Rodney Palmer, have called and correct! y identified that their properties were assessed within the last five years for similar improvements and, therefore, are entitled to an assessment reduction. Correspondence has been provided to these two property owners with reduced assessments. . After the closing of the assessment hearing it would be appropriate for the City Council to review and consider the attached resolution adopting the final assessment roll. , 1959 SLOAN PLACE.

'!he first four letters were written to residents who either called or were at the hearing, am stated that by adding llz inch of blacktop could cause a drainage problem or that their cars would l:ottan out at the end of the driveways. It was explained that the '-A'Ut....c1ctor will be milling an area in front of the driveways so that the new blacktop would then match the existing grade or =b. 'lhese letters were sent to: . Mr. Larry McDonald Ms. Arlene Mitd1ell 4125 James Circle 1283 wynridge Ave. Mr. vincent Anderson Ms. Sandra Bainbridge 1325 Karth Lake Circle 4113 James Circle Also contacted by phone Also appearing at the hearing was Mr. Ken Hanzalik of 1768 Venus who stated that he am his neighbor, Mr. Walt Harmer from 1776 Venus, had c:oncerns about the drainage in front of their homes. I wrote letters to both gentlemen explaining that we will be replacing the existing catch basin castings am grates with a larger size. '!he small castings currently on site do not appear to be able to hanile the heavier rains. It is anticipated that replacing the castings am grates will solve the drainage issue. Mr. Dennis Prchal of 1553 Briarknoll Dr. noted a drainage issue in front of his house am also a=oss the street fran him. I sent letters to Mr. Prchal am his neighbor Mr. Lee of 1552 Briarknoll Dr explaining that we will lower the catch basins on both sides of the street, am also replace sections of curb on both sides of the catch basins. Mr. Cluck M::Cann of 1839 Venus has a problem with water running down his driveway am into his garage. I explained to Mr. M::Cann that we will be milling in front of his home am flattening the =own of the road in an atte!rpt to alter the current water drainage. Mr. M::Cann' s driveway is . currently lower than the street causing water to collect in the driveway. We will also be rel:W.lding ani raising the catch basin in front of his property.

He was told that the contractor will be millin:J an area in front of the driveway so that the new paVElme.ht will match the existin:J oonc::tete driveway. A small swale will be placed in the blacktop to ensure that excess water will not run in the driveway. Sane blacktop curb will also be replaced in front of his house. '!he curb was removed while plCMing snow. Mr. Gordon Fay of 1841 Gramsie Road wanted to know if he could pay to have ooncrete curb placed in front of his hoose. I explained that the overlay maintenance ~'-Y'-aw does not include concret:e curb. Concrete curb will only be installed durin:J a recoJ....L..<lCti.on project and that we ltIOUld not be putting curb in front of his hoose. Ms. Karen Whitehurst fran 1575 Briarknoll called with concerns about curb that has settled in front of her driveway. In the letter to her I stated that we will be replacin:J at least two sections of curb that have settled. '!he curb appears to have settled over the area where the sewer and water services were installed for the hoose. Mark Graham drafted two letters to residents who irxticated that they were assessed two years ago for one side of the lot and should not have a full ",;,<;"~sment durin:J this project. Mark ooncurred that an error was made and that the new aSE:9S'~l'lt rates are considerably less than what was estimated.

We may have to evaluate in;ti vidual streets that deteriorate faster than anticipated. Recent exaITples would be Dunlap Avenue and West Rot1rxi Lake Road. 'lhe City needs to keep open the option that scheduled street maintenance work may have to be dlanged because of an unforeseen circumstance. ~ions were also asked how the footage is calculated for the assessment rate. Fach individual property is evaluated, and the formula established in the Arden Hills assessment policy is used to determine the exact assessment rate.

Both MarX Graham and myself feel that if the residents on the scuth ani of Noma are opposed to the overlay ani the ",a~--..1'lt, then we should continue to pn:sue overlaying the northern portion of the ",L..eet. but at the City's expense.

We have also received inquiries fran residents in the Wyncl:e.ot Lane an::l Wynridge Drive areas asking why we need to do these ",L..eets 11ClW. 'lhe OOIlOel:uS centered on the fact that there doesn't appear to be large pot- holes, therefore possibly the ",L..eets ca.tld be left alone for awhile. It was explained that althoogh these ..4....ts did not rate at the very tc:p of the list for an overlay, they are in between the overlay ani seal coat ratiJ'gs. If the residents show' erDJgh objection to the overlay. then at the very least the ",L..eets in this area shQI.1ld be seal coated this year. MarX an::l I Ix:Jt:h feel that these ..l.1.....ts will probably . require an overlay within the next two to four years. We do not want to reduce the integrity of existing conditions. To wait until large pot- holes develop may mean to do a IIIJCh mere expellsive reoonstructi.on project rather than an overlay. ~:rk . ---- ( , DRAFT . CXTY OF ARDEN RXLLS, MXNNESOTA PLANNXNG COMMXSSXON MBBTXNG WEDNESDAY, MAY 5, 1993 7:30 P.M. - CXTY HALL CALL TO ORDER Chair winiecki called the meeting to order at 7:30 p.m. ROLL CALL Present: ' Chair Winiecki, Members: Barb Piotrowski, Raymond McGraw, Scott Petersen, Marty Rye. Also present, Councilmember Dale Hicks, Planner John Bergly, City Administrator Dorothy Person, Recording Secretary Jackie Knowlton. APPROVE MXNUTES piotrowski moved, seconded by McGraw, to approve the April 7, 1993, Planning Minutes as submitted. All voted in favor. (5-0) . CASE #93-07 SXTE PLAN REVXEW FOR OUTSXDE FOOD AND BEVERAGE AREA AT THE RAMADA HOTEL, 1201 W. COUNTY ROAD E. . The Proposal is to allow an outdoor food and beverage serving area (patio) and to approve the site plan. The area in which the serving area is proposed is a roofed nine (9) foot indentation at the west end of the south facade of the Motel. At present, the area is surfaced with crushed rock which will be replaced by a concrete slab as suggested by the State Health Department for outside food serving areas. It will have a three (3) foot high wrought iron fence on the south side next to the drive and is proposed to accommodate 60 patrons. John Bergly noted the following: L The Zoning Ordinance does not specifically refer to this type of use. The proposed use presumably could be considered as an extension of the allowed'principal use (motel, restaurant, bar) or it could be considered as a seasonal accessory use. In either case, the outward appearance and operation of the facility will be changed only slightly. A site Plan Review is an appropriate course of action. 2. The patio will be 15 feet wide and 54 ft. long and will be surrounded on the west, north and east sides by existing walls of the building. The south side will be . open except for a 3 foot high wrought iron railing. A door will provide access between the existing bar/eating area and the patio. . 3. The applicant prefers that entry or exit from the patio be through the bar, however, since the door from the bar is an "outside" door it should provide unobstructed egress in case of an emergency. A gate should be provided in the railing to allow emergency egress from the patio. 4. The Public Works Director has indicated that the proposed 14 foot (includes a 3 foot walkway area that will be painted on the bituminous adjacent to the concrete patio), one-way fire access lane, will be acceptable as an interim condition, but that the drive should be widened in the future. The 3 foot wide walkway is also considered temporary and should be replaced by a real sidewalk when the roadway is widened. 5. The hotel manager proposes that the facility be allowed to function for a year to determine the project's viability. If successful, changes in the walk, roadway and landscaping would likely be made. The bar and restaurant are currently undergoing major renovation with emphasis on the food service (lunch crowd is considered a main target). 6. The Building Inspector's review indicates that a gate . in the fence will be required, in addition to some miscellaneous building material/fire protection concerns. 7. The city Engineer felt that there were no impacts on City streets or utilities and hard surface cover is not being increased. 8. The attorney's concerns are: a. The liquor license should be tied to the site Plan/Building Plan because the area for serving liquor is defined by the Plans. Any change requires an amendment to the liquor license. b. Access control is needed because I.D. 's need to be checked and no liquor is allowed to be carried out of the serving area. 9. As a result of the previous application in 1991, 14 parking s~alls were added in the wide drive area west of the building. These were recommended to address the parking requirements resulting from the increased food service area. Due to the generally law usage of the hotel by overnight guests during the lunch (and even the evening) period, the proximity of parking is the . primary concern - not the number of spaces. --------------- . 10. The proposal shows a 3 foot bench around the patio. Now, because of insurance reasons they want to make it higher, probably 42 inches. A higher fence should increase security. Planner Bergly recommended approval of Case #93-07, with the following conditions: l. That the drive be appropriately signed and marked as a one-way drive and let staff authorize. 2. That a 3-foot walkway be stripped between the drive and the patio. 3. That the operation be evaluated after the 1993 use season. If the owner determines that the operation was successful, changes will be made prior to the 1994 season as follows: a. The drive along the souths ide of the patio will be widened by 8 feet. b. A permanent 4 foot sidewalk be provided in place of the stripe on the drive. c. Landscape enhancement will be made between County . Road E and the outdoor eating area to lessen the traffic impact on diners. Such plans will be approved by Staff unless the City has received complaints or has observed problems in which case a review by Planning Commission and Council will occur. 4. That a host/hostess station be provided at the gate if patrons are allowed to either enter or exit the patio directly without going through the restaurant/bar area. 5. That appropriate adjustments be made in any food and liquor licenses and that the site/building plan approved in this application be attached to the liquor license. 6. Recommend that a gate be installed in the fence outside the patio area (opposite the door into the bar) so in case of an emergency people would have access to the street. . ------------ - . Chair Winiecki asked if the applicant had any comments. Ron Lemke, General Manager of the Ramada, commented on the following: Both insurance and Liquor Control Board have been contacted to comply with the wishes of the City. Liquor Control Board requires that at time of renewal they will add the patio area. The license is given to the address and therefore, everything on the property is covered. Also, they will advise their corporate insurance company to show the expanded area. In 1994 they will be resurfacing the entire parking lot area and at that time they will meet the needs of widening the driveway. Restaurant renovation is underway and in order to comply with ADA requirements, they are installing an additional exit which will be wheelchair accessible. Ray McGraw had a concern that when he went to the Ramada this evening at 6:30, a manager was not available to speak with him. McGraw's concern was the noise level within the bar itself which is very loud and asked what Mr. Lemke's plan was to control the noise level outside. Mr. Lemke stated that the plan is . to make the patio area a more relaxed, quiet environment and that noise control is a priority. A question regarding the height of the fence was raised by Scott Petersen. Mr. Lemke stated that according to the Liquor Control Board and other establishments in the area with a similar situation suggest a height of about 42". The main concern is controlling the illegal entrance of minors and to enable restaurant staff to control legal serving of alcoholic beverages. Mr. Lemke said that upon his investigation, there is not a "code" for this kind of fence and that 42" seems to be the standard. Planner Bergly stated that if the fence were any higher, there should be a review of the design. Mr. Lemke said he does not want to have it too high and get the "fish bowl" feeling and that his main concern is control of illegal entrance. Also, Mr. Lemke's goal is to improve curb appeal and contribute to downtown Arden Hills. Piotrowski asked the general question regarding long term plans regarding the valet overhang. It is the desire of Mr. Lemke to remove the overhang and open up the front of the building and make it more attractive, but at this time the expense is not justified. Renovation in the dining and lounge area is priority. . . . Mr. Lemke will evaluate the landscaping issue with Planner Bergly. Scott Petersen moved and McGraw seconded to approve case #93-07 with the recommendations outlined by Planner Bergly with the addition of recommending a safety gate to be installed in the fence for emergency exiting, and that the landscaping plan be reviewed by city staff during the 1993 season and in 1994 a more specific and formal landscape plan be submitted to the Planning commission for approval. Motion passed unanimously. (5-0) PILGRIM HOUSE DISCUSSION Allen Carstens and Carolyn Tucker were present to discuss the issue of expansion. Before getting involved with architects, they wanted to discuss the general proposal with the Planning Commission to examine concerns that the City may have. In 1973 a Permanent Special Use Permit was granted and expansion of the building or changes in the site Plan require an amendment to the SUP. Allen Carstens presented overheads showing the existing situation and possible plans for the future. The Pilgrim House has been in existence for 25 years and at this time . has grown to approximately a 50-family membership. The parking lot is a major problem and renovation and expansion of the building is needed. They want to stay at this location but need to know if they even have the opportunity to expand or should they start looking for a new location. Wienicki explained to Carstens what they could expect from the Planning Commission. If they would come before the Commission with an application, it would require a Public Hearing and at that time they would be sure to find out what the neighbors were thinking. The impact on the neighbors is significant. Therefore, getting the neighbor's feedback would be the first step for them to take at this time. Marty Rye stated it might be hard to prove hardship when there is the possibility of the church going to 1, 2 or 3 services, which would solve some of the problem of growth, but Mr. Carstens stated they would rather move. COUNCIL REPORT Councilmember Hicks reported on items of interest to the Commission. . , . OTHER ISSUES City Administrator, Dorothy Person, reviewed the interim disbursement of Community Planning duties with the Commission. She presented a handout which itemized the assignment of the various duties. Marty Rye had several handouts relating to economic issues and is willing to work with staff to draft appropriate forms and guidelines to have available to the residents.

This joint conservation effort between the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) and the U.S. Army is a land management technique used to disoourage non-native and non-prairie . species. These fires mimic the control methods used by Mother Nature to maintain open spaces which support native prairie species. Conservation groups have recoqnl2:ed 'I'CAAP'S upland prairie and prairie-pothole ecosystem as a unique natural resource in the densely populated Twin cities metropolitan area. over the years the beautiful prairie habitat has been encroached upon by alien species of trees, shrubs, and weeds. This prairie restoration project is part of an overall plan to manage natural resources at TCAAP in coordination and cooperation with state-wide conservation efforts. TCAAP'S strategy of partnerShip with conservation groups has been recently recognized by the Secretary of Defense, Mr. Les Aspin, who cited 'I'CAAP for meritorious achievement and awarded TCAAP the 1992 Department of Defense Natural Resources Conservation Award.

Honorable City Council of Arden Hills, MN 1450 West Highway 96 Arden Hills, MN 55112 Honorable City Council: Let this letter serve as a written objection to the assessment against my property at 1273 Nursery Hill Lane or Lot 25 Karth Lake Addition. I attended the Public Hearing on April 12, 1993 and was one of those that spoke on the bituminous overlay and seal coat improvements. One of the specific questions I asked was if the $2.98 per front foot was a firm price. I was told that it was and that the City of Arden Hills would pay the rest of the total contract out of other funds. I have front footage of 54.84 feet which would give me an assessment, based on your firm price of $2.98, of $163.42 rather than my notified price of $299.55. If this was another improvement such as curb and gutter, sewer or water I would think that the only benefit I derive from the improvement would be whatever benefits me in the front of my house at the property line. As an example if my curb and . gutter was all broken up and needed to be replaced, only 54.84 feet would need to be installed. If this was an area assessment for storm sewer then I could understand the need for a calculation based on square footage of lot size. Life is full of surprises but hard to accept when told one thing and surprised with another. My other concern is the installation of a II inch bituminous over- lay when the existing blacktop is already even and in some cases slightly higher than the existing curb and gutter. Let me again express my fear that if the contractor only feathers the overlay to match the curb and gutter, than it will not stay in place. Thank you for your time. Yours truly, 4L~~~ Ralph H.

In unplatted areas, the City Council shall establish on a case-by-case basis, a formula for determining the assessable front footage for each improvement project separately.

Odd-Shaped Lots For odd-shaped lots, (i .e. lots on cul-de-sacs or lots where the difference between the length of the front property line and back property line is greater than five feet), the front footage is computed by dividing the area of the lot by the average depth of the lot. If the odd-shaped lot is deeper . than 200 feet, the front footage shall be computed by determining the area assuming a 200 foot depth, then dividing that area by 200 feet. The Appendix contains an example of calculating assessable front footage for odd-shaped lots. 3. Approximately Rectangular Lots For a lot which is approximately rectangular, the front footage is computed by averaging the front and back side of the 1 at. If the lot is deeper than 200 feet, the front footage shall be computed by averaging the length of the front property line and width of the lot at the point 200 feet deep into the lot. This method is used only where the divergence between front and rear lot lines is five feet or . 1 ess. 10 . 4. Shallow Lots For rectangular lots under 130 feet in depth, or irregular lots averaging less than 130 feet in depth, the front footage is determined by the actual lot area divided by 130 feet. 5. Corner Lots In the case of a street improvement project which abuts both sides of a corner lot. the assessable front footage shall be the dimension of the shorter side plus one-third (1/3) of the dimension of the long side. or the long side. whichever is greater. This same formula will apply where the streets abutting a corner lot are improved within five years of each other. The maximum amount that a corner lot can be assessed . for street improvements is equal to the dimension of the shorter side plus one-third of the longer side. or the longer side. whichever is greater, within a 5 year period. Where the proposed improvement project is only along one side of a corner lot. the front footage dimension along that same side shall be used. 6. Double Frontage Lots For lots which front on streets being improved on both the front and back property lines. the property will only be assessed on the bas i s of the average of the two frontages. . . 11 ---- ------- .

Many calls fran citizens have been received. Many were a general oatplaint of another utility increase so close to the past two years' increase. Several were based on sinJle in:ii.viduals who requested volume only based billinJ. It is expected that the 2nd quarter billing (Apr-- June and mailed by July 20) will reflect the in=ease of a two tiered billing reflectin;J the 24% increase of May-oct and 14% fram Nov-April.
