on the agenda. There were no public comments. I
UNFINISHED AND NEW BUSINESS
A. Resolution #96-52, Supporting the Proposed Turnback of a Portion of Round Lake I
Road from MnIDOT to the City of Arden Hills I
Kevin Ringwald, Community Development Director, advised the Council that staff is requesting
approval of the proposed resolution on behalf of Welsh Companies which supports the release of ..
excess right-of-way currently under the jurisdiction of MnlDOT. He explained this turnback is
not a tumback of a specific street, it is a tumback of a portion of street right-of-way (I-35W) adjacent to Round Lake Road and Butchers Street and has been requested in order to facilitate ,
additional development in the Gateway area. It was noted the State is prohibited from
transferring property to individuals, but can transfer property to municipalities who may then
transfer the property to individuals. Mr. Ringwald advised the transfer of property will not I
involve the transfer of any funds between any ofthe parties.
MOTION: Malone moved and Keim seconded a motion to adopt Resolution #96-52, I
Requesting the Release of Certain Rights-of-Way by the MnlDOT in the Gateway
Business District. The motion carried unanimously (4-0). I
B. County Road F - Final Pay Estimate
Greg Stonehouse, City Engineer, advised the Council is asked to authorize the final pay estimate I
to Midwest Asphalt in the amount of$126,326.97. This payment is subject to receipt of the
appropriate documentation from Midwest Asphalt. Mr. Stonehouse explained that the City ,
Attorney has reviewed this issue and recommends payment of the requested amount since the
work for County Road F Reconstruction Project has been completed and accepted. It was noted
the additional request for payment of$141,378.15 by Midwest Asphalt is still under I
investigation and has no impact on the action requested as part of the final pay estimate. With
regard to this additional request for payment, the City Administrator and City Attorney ..
recommend reimbursement of the contract amount ($126,326.97) and to take no action on the
additional claim at this point in time. Mr. Stonehouse advised of the $1,200 deduction for
sea1coating of the Valentine Park parking lot which was damaged during construction.
I
I
I ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - SEPTEMBER 9 1996 3
,. Councilmember Hicks inquired regarding the progress made on additional issues raised in the
contractor's request for additional payment. Mr. Stonehouse stated as far as the City is
concerned, those issues have been resolved. He explained that underground utilities are not
, normally identified on the plan,just in case the location is not exact. However, it is customary to
show all over ground utilities and the bids clearly outline it is the contractor's responsibility to
investigate those issues to their satisfaction prior to preparing the bid.
I MOTION: Hicks moved and Keim seconded a motion to authorize the final Pay Estimate to
Midwest Asphalt for the County Road f Reconstruction Project in the amount of
, $126,326.97. The motion carried unanimously (4-0).
C. Resolution #96-50, Clarifying Proposed Sums of Money to be Levied for Levy Year
I 1996
I Terry Post, City Accountant, reviewed the calendar of events involved in the 1997 budget
process and advised that the Council is requested to adopt the proposed resolution which clarifies
proposed sums of money to be levied for Levy Year 1996, Payable in 1997. The net levy, after
I HACA, is proposed at $1,829,320 or a 1.95% increase from Levy Year 1995. Mr. Post explained
the adoption of a levy at this time is a requirement of the Truth In Taxation process. This
increase, if adopted, would be the maximum increase in the levy and the only change which
.. could be made from this point forward would be to decrease the levy. Mr. Post stated nothing
has come to staffs attention to change budget items previously discussed.
I In response to Councilmember Malone, Mr. Post explained the proposed levy amount is net of
HACA, and the increase of 1.95% appears to be lower than surrounding communities.
, Acting Mayor Aplikowski asked if the proposed increase is sufficient to meet the needs of Arden
Hills. Mr. Post responded that it addresses the spending priorities established by Council as part
of the budget process.
I MOTION: Keirn moved and Malone seconded a motion to adopt Resolution #96-50,
, Clarifying Proposed Sums of Money to be Levied for Levy Year 1996. The
motion carried unanimously (4-0).
I D. Resolution #96-51, Adopting Truth in Taxation Hearing Dates and Location for
Proposed 1997 Taxes Payable
I Mr. Post advised the Council is also requested to adopt the proposed resolution adopting the
Truth In Taxation hearing dates and locations for proposed 1997 taxes payable. Because the City
cannot schedule its initial hearing and continuation hearing on dates being used by Ramsey
I County, Metropolitan Council, or school districts, the Council will need to consider additional
meetings or change current meeting dates.

E. Presentation by Youth Hockey Associations Regarding a Four-Sheet Ice Facility I
Acting Mayor Aplikowski welcomed representatives of the Mounds View and lrondale Youth I
Hockey Associations who were in attendance to make a presentation to the City Council
regarding the four-sheet ice facility in Blaine.
Mike Kreidler stated he has been the President of the Mounds View Hockey Association for .
three years, a 10-year resident of Arden Hills and prior to that, a 10-year resident of New I
Brighton. He explained the Youth Hockey Associations are asking for Council support for the
four rink hockey arena to be constructed at the National Sports Center in Blaine. Mr. Kreidler
reported the Hockey Associations will meet with Ramsey County Commissioners tomorrow and ..
will propose they provide funding of $500,000 towards this facility. Mr. Kreidler stated they are
optimistic about this request since last week, the Ramsey County Commissioners approved a $1
million donation for the southern rink being constructed in Highland Park. I
Mr. Kreidler advised the Mounds View and Irondale Hockey Associations currently have
$250,000 in reserves and if approved, discussion will occur between the Hockey Associations of .
Mounds View and Irondale to establish an escrow account which could be used to assist funding
any shortages annually should the entire 2,080 ice hours not be utilized. He noted the Hockey
Associations have not asked local communities to make a contribution but, rather, to support the .
project with the intent that if there is a shortage, it would be covered by the escrow account.
Mr. Kreidler explained the National Sports Center Ice Arena is being financed through Anoka I
County who will issue $7 million of bonds with participating municipalities being asked to sign
on as guarantors. Each of the four entities will contribute a $500,000 down payment and the .
National Sports Center will contribute $500,000 of Mighty Ducks grant money. If the Hockey
Association is unable to use 2,080 hours per year, then the cost of$125 per hour (times number
of hours not rented) will be divided between four municipalities (Arden Hills, Mounds View, I
Shoreview, and New Brighton) on a per capita basis. Mr. Kreidler noted this project needs the
support of all four municipalities, not for a financial contribution, but to sign on as a guarantor
and encourage that Ramsey County will place $500,000 towards this project. I
Mr. Kreidler provided historical data, in a letter, which included the number of ice hours and ..
participants in the program.
I
, .
. ARDEN HILl.S CITY COUNCIL - SEPTEMBER 9. 1996 5
~ Council member Hicks inquired why the Irondale registration has not increased more
significantly. Mr. Kreidler stated he cannot explain why 1rondale numbers are stagnant.
I Councilmember Hicks questioned whether there is actually an increased need for additional ice
hours.
I Kurt Lawrence, 4516 Keithson Drive, Arden Hills, informed the Council that this may be the
result of scheduling five-year-old hockey participants enrolled in the Irondale Program to
practice at 6:00 a.m. in East Bethel. He stated he knows of one family who decided they could
, not have their child follow this schedule so they removed the child from the hockey program.
Mr. Lawrence explained this is the situation with the Irondale program because there is no ice
time available. He pointed out a need also exists for ice time for the girls hockey program which
. is growing greatly.
Councilmember Hicks inquired regarding the rationale for requesting $500,000 from Ramsey
, County rather than $1 million. Mr. Kreidler explained the southern rink was approved at one
time but not constructed. Now, the city of St. Paul indicated it would provide $1 million if
matched by Ramsey County. Plus, the Highland Park rink qualified for the Mighty Ducks
I Legislation grant so they will have $2.5 to construct their rink. Mr. Kreidler advised there were
some discussions held last week about a $1 million request, but Ramsey County is concerned
.. that construction of two new rinks will dramatically affect its ability to sell ice at County rinks.
Therefore, they only want one built, not two. Mr. Kreidler informed that the proposal is to
construct a total of four rinks at the National Sports Center. The cities of Blaine and Coon
, Rapids have indicated they will each buy one rink and the Mounds View and Irondale Hockey
Associations want to be the partner for the third rink. It is anticipated that the city of Brooklyn
Park will take the fourth rink.
, Councilmember Hicks pointed out the Mounds View and Irondale programs only used 1,100
hours last year and inquired regarding their ability to utilize 2,080 hours per year. Mr. Kreidler
. pointed out that in 1993 they were able to purchase additional ice time at Columbia Arena and it
was easily utilized. He stated he does not believe it will be a problem to use 2,080 hours of ice
time per year.
, Councilmember Hicks stated he understands the Hockey Association's suggestion tonight that
there is no request for financial support; however, the requested guarantee for City support is
I different in concept than principal, and he believes it is actually what the City is being asked to
do. Mr. Kreidler agreed that if all of the 2,080 hours of ice time is not used, technically, the City
I would be responsible for that cost but the Hockey Associations will establish an escrow account
to protect the cities from that possible contingency. Mr. Kreidler stated he does not believe this
will occur but the escrow fund will be established to satisfy the City.
. Councilmember Hicks inquired regarding the use of the requested $500,000 from Ramsey
~ County. Mr. Kreidler reviewed anticipated financing of the proposed National Sports Center Ice
Arena via contribution of four participants and bonds sold by Anoka County. To be financially
feasible, the four participants must guarantee the purchase of 2,080 hours of ice time per year.
The Mounds View and Irondale Hockey Associations would have to guarantee 2,080 hours.
I
. I
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - SEPTEMBER 9. 1996 6 I
Mr. Kreidler pointed out that there are other users of ice time such as figure skaters and it is ..
possible to use the rink in the spring for dry floor events, such as indoor soccer, etc. It is also
anticipated that the cities will want to use some of the hours for park and recreation activities as
well. .
Acting Mayor Aplikowski questioned what would happen if the bonds fail. Mr. Fritsinger I
explained if the Hockey Associations do not meet the 2,080 hour requirement, the cities would
be required to participate in the project and contribute the portion needed to equal to 2,080 hours.
In that case, the hours not used would be split between the four participating cities on a per capita I
basis. Mr. Kreidler reiterated that an escrow account will be established and if a shortage occurs,
the difference would be paid from the escrow fund.
Acting Mayor Aplikowski asked what would happen if the bonds sold by County of Anoka I
defaulted. Mr. Fritsinger advised this is unlikely since they are GO Bonds and payment on the
debt is guaranteed by each community guaranteeing the use of2,080 hours. I
Acting Mayor Aplikowski inquired regarding funding from charitable gambling. Mr. Kreidler
advised that one-half of the $250,000 has been on-hand for the last eight years and was raised I
from fund raisers, such as selling pizzas. He reported the Hockey Associations have a cash flow
from charitable gambling and about one-half of the money in the account is proceeds from
charitable gambling but they intend to keep doing fund raisers. ..
Mr. Kreidler commented on the difficulty in fund raising with the "promise" that a rink will be
constructed "in the future". He stated if a rink is constructed, he believes the members of the I
Hockey Associations will continue to participate in fund raising. He pointed out that a project
like this will benefit the local youth and high school and he believes the Light Brigade will also I
be interested in participating.
Acting Mayor Aplikowski asked why hockey participants would be interested in traveling to I
Blaine and not prefer to construct a rink closer to Arden Hills. Mr. Kreidler explained they
would not be able to construct a rink at this cost and for many participants, the location in Blaine
is no greater than they are currently traveling. .
Acting Mayor Aplikowski asked why, if there is such a big need for additional ice hours, private
money is not being used to construct the arena and why government entities should be involved. I
Mr. Kreidler asserted it may be for the same reason that private money is not used to build roads
or sewers. Also, most arena projects are operated on a break-even basis and ifit does not make a
profit, it will not attract private money. He advised that the cost for ice time at arenas located on I
the east coast are much higher and private money is involved with those but, historically, all
rinks in the metro area have been constructed via public funds. I

I ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - SEPTEMaER 9. 1996 7
{' Councilmember Malone stated he has been reading documentation for this project but finds it
difficult to follow due to conflicting statements. He noted the total project cost is about $9
million with $2 million being contributed from four participants as up-front money. He inquired
, whether there will be four or five participants. Mr. Kreidler advised there are five including the
Minnesota Amateur Sports Commission which is donating the land and Mighty Ducks funds of
$500,000, but not a down payment.
I Councilmember Malone stated he understands the request for guarantee of hours but one
document talked about operating costs, financing, capital costs, etc. He noted that each
. participant is to contribute a $500,000 down payment but Mr. Kreidler has indicated they only
have $250,000. Mr. Kreidler explained they initially proposed to raise $500,000 but are now
I asking Ramsey County to make that contribution which will be the down payment. Then, the
Hockey Associations will place its $250,000 in a cash escrow so it can be used in case of a
shortfall. Mr. Kreidler stated if Ramsey County does not agree to make a contribution, the
I Hockey Associations will still try to contribute, perhaps via a loan.
Councilmember Malone noted the anticipated total debt service is about $600,000 per year and
I the Hockey Associations will be responsible for 25%, for a total exposure of approximately
$150,000 per year. However, the escrow count is only for $250,000 and would not cover two
years of debt service. Mr. Kreidler explained they currently have $250,000 and will need to
.. know what the City's comfort level is. If they need to increase that amount, they would do so.
Councilmember Malone inquired regarding the annual cash flow. Mr. Kreidler eXplained they
, operate as a nonprofit organization and charge participants only for the cost to operate (ice time,
jerseys, etc.) which are charged back on a pro rata basis.
I Mr. Fritsinger advised the issues of the escrow amount and covering debt service have been
debated and discussed over the last six to seven weeks, in an effort to determine how the escrow
. account should be set up. Discussion has occurred that, perhaps, a ceiling amount should be
considered which could be reduced once the project begins to cash flow. He reviewed a number
of options discussed on how to deal with the escrow, ceiling, draw, etc.
. Councilmember Malone explained he is trying to get a "feel" for dollars and exposure. He
inquired regarding the scenario if operating costs are greater than anticipated. Mr. Fritsinger
I explained the Hockey Association/Cities are responsible for debt service and to guarantee the
hours. The Minnesota Amateur Spots Commission (MASC) would have the responsibility to
determine whether they need to increase the cost per hour of ice time. Mr. Fritsinger advised the
I Hockey Associations would, in no way, have to incur additional costs for operating costs, only if
not meeting ice time. It was noted a board of directors will be established with one member
from each arena and city so the MASC cannot, on its own, make a change in the cost of ice hours
. without agreement by the board.

ARDEN HILLS CITY COUN:cIL - SEPTEMBER 9. 1996 8 I
Mr. Kreidler pointed out the National Sports Center Ice Arena will need to remain competitive ..
with other rinks so an increase will probably not happen. He advised that the present rate of
$125 per hour is in the middle range of what is currently being charged and by the time the
facility is completed, it will probably be at the lower level. Mr. Kreidler stated the proposed I
National Sports Center Ice Arena will have four Olympic-sized rinks which can be used more
productively and will be a one-of-a-kind facility in the country.
Councilmember Hicks presented an analogy of a shopping center where each family only has a I
certain number of dollars to spend and questioned the future financial situation of rinks that will
lose business to the new arena. Mr. Kreidler stated there are only 1,100 hours of ice time I
available during the prime-time period so the Hockey Associations will have to go elsewhere to
purchase additional prime-time hours needed for their programs.
Mr. Lawrence concurred and added that the hockey season for younger players does not start .
until the end of December and goes through March. He explained the Hockey Association wants
younger participants to start earlier but are unable to do so because there is no ice time for .
younger players to use.
Councilmember Keim brought up that Columbia Arena has major structural problems and will I
need to redirect some of their ice time.
Councilmember Hicks questioned the recently constructed facility at Inver Grove Heights. Mr. ..
Kreidler eXplained the facility is a two-sheet arena, one permanent and the other under a bubble.
Councilmember Hicks stated the cost of$3.8 million included Park Department offices and a I
senior center, and residents are suggesting such an option be considered.
Mr. Lawrence noted there is no seating around the second sheet at Inver Grove Heights but the I
National Sport Center Ice Arena will have seating around all four sheets of ice and intends to
attract State as well as international tournaments.
Mr. Fritsinger advised of discussions to deal with adding a second sheet at Shoreview but it was ,
determined that costs would be higher, as indicated tonight by Mr. Kreidler and supported by
estimates being presented by the MASC. With regard to the question about the ability to utilize I
2,080 ice hours, Mr. Greg Mack, Ramsey County Parks Director, has indicated that the Hockey
Association request in 1996 was for approximately 1,500 hours from Mounds View and I
approximately 550 hours from lrondale; but the Associations received only approximately 1,200
hours from that request. Mr. Fritsinger stated typically, the Hockey Associations can use more
hours but Ramsey County can only allocate a certain number of hours and there are I
approximately 2,400 to 2,600 hours of demand it cannot meet.
Councilmember Hicks thanked Mr. Kreidler for his presentation and wished him success in his I
talks with Ramsey County.

F. Resolution #96-53, Consenting to the Transfer of Control of and Certain Ownership
I Interests in a Cable Television Franchise to Continental
G. Resolution #96-54, Consenting to the Transfer of Control of and Certain Ownership
I Interests in a Cable Television Franchise to U.S. West
Mr. Fritsinger advised the Council is asked to consider a resolution regarding the transfer of
I Meredith Cable to Continental Cablevision and then to U.S. West. He advised that questions
remain regarding the ability of U.S. West to operate a cable system, but the Cable Commission
and its attorneys have reviewed and evaluated this transfer and unanimously recommended the
I City approve of this transaction
I Acting Mayor Aplikowski expressed concern that U.S. West will use their telephone operators to
solicit residents to subscribe to cable television, which can be an annoyance.
I MOTION: Hicks moved and Malone seconded a motion to adopt Resolution #96-53,
Consenting to the Transfer of Control of and Certain Ownership Interests in a
Cable Television Franchise to Continental and Resolution #96-54, Consenting to
.. the Transfer of Control of and Certain Ownership Interests in a Cable Television
Franchise to U.S. West. The motion carried unanimously (4-0).
I ADMINISTRA TOR COMMENTS
Mr. Fritsinger reminded the Council there will not be a special meeting on Wednesday,
I September II, 1996, to canvass the election. A special meeting to canvass election results will
only be needed for the local offices of the general election.
I Mr. Fritsinger advised the RFP for City Hall architectural services are due this week so staff will
be holding discussions with interested firms and determine how to proceed with interviews.
I Mr. Fritsinger reminded the Council of the Worksession and barbeque for volunteer committee

I Acting Mayor Aplikowski commented on telephone calls she received regarding the City's
policy for political campaign signs. She advised the Council of State Representative Phil
,. Krinkie's suggestion that the City amend the ordinance to allow signage within five feet of the
curb line.

ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - SEPTpMBER 9. 1996 10 J
Councilmember Malone stated he has also received calls and supports enforcing the City's
ordinance and keep signs out of the public rights-of-way. He pointed out this involves a .
legitimate public safety concern. Mr. Fritsinger clarified that State Statute dictates public rights-
of-way and restricts political signs from being located within right-of-way areas. .
Acting Mayor Aplikowski extended the Council's appreciation to staff for doing such a good job
when meetings need to be relocated. I
Acting Mayor Aplikowski recognized Cub Scout Troop 408 from Chippewa School and
welcomed them to the meeting. .

WORKSESSION
SEPTEMBER 16,1996
. 4:30 P.M. - PUBLIC WORKS BUILDING LUNCHROOM
I CALL TO ORDERlROLL CALL
Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, Mayor Probst called to order the City Council
Worksession at 4:35 p.m. Present were Mayor Dennis Probst, Councilmembers Dale Hicks and
. Paul Malone; City Administrator, Brian Fritsinger; Public Works Superintendent, Dwayne
Stafford; Community Development Director, Kevin Ringwald; Parks and Recreation Director,
. Cindy Walsh; City Accountant, Terry Post; and Recording Secretary, Sheila Stowell, with
Councilmember Beverly Aplikowski arriving at 4:38 p.m., and Councilmember Susan Keim
arriving at 5:10 p.m.
. CITY ISSUES - LONG TERM
a. Hi~hwav 96 Project Update - Ramsev County
. Mayor Probst turned the meeting over to Mr. Jim Tolaas, Ramsey County
Engineer, to provide an update of the Highway 96 Project to Councilmembers and
staff.
. Mr. Tolaas presented schematics and reviewed various environmental impacts due
to existing contaminants from the TCAAP superfund site, and its relationship to
.. the proposed construction and Hwy. 96 alignment. While the contaminants
appear to be bound and held by the soil, and are not continuing to flow through
the storm water discharge, they do pose a potential threat to the Negative
I Environmental Impact Statement that Ramsey County is seeking for the entire
project.
. Mr. Tolaas stated that the Arden Hills' section presented one of the more
challenging aspects of the Highway 96 construction project, partially due to the
. location of the frontage road, which impacted the design significantly. It was Mr.
Tolaas' recommendation that the Council consider a shift in the alignment, taking
into consideration area amenities and proposed developments. The revised
. alignment would require the displacement of seventeen (17) mobile homes on the
south side of the Arden Manor Mobile Home Park, which would be eligible for
funding through Ramsey County and the State of Minnesota.
. Mayor Probst discussed future MNIDOT plans for 1-694 improvements, which
prompted discussion of the intersection ofHwy. 10 and Highway 96, which
. according to Mr. T olaas, is currently rated as an "F" as far as functioning capacity
is concerned. Discussion continued among the Councilmembers regarding
medians, channelization and other dimensions involved in the highway
. reconstruction project.

.., ,
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL WORKSESSION - SEPTEMBER 16.1996 2 ..
Brian Fritsinger, City Administrator, asked Mr. Tolaas how the realignment of the I
highway would affect the City's trail system in the area, with Mr. Tolaas
responding that a ten foot shift would be necessitated. I
In a related subject, Mayor Probst addressed the issue of sound walls. The
realignment, and its related impact of this new design, could require construction ,
ofa noise wall. Mr. Tolaas sought the City's support of this concept, with costs
to be covered by State Aid funds. Discussion ensued regarding the positive and
negative aspects of sound barriers, the need to protect the environment and noise .
levels experienced by residents, while yet maintaining the integrity ofthe
community as a whole.
Mr. Tolaas reviewed the criteria of the State of Minnesota, and reviewed the cost .
per decibel reduction per residence, and the total cost per residence. It was Mr. ,
Tolaas' recommendation that the Council approve construction of a wall on both
sides of Prior Avenue, but reminded the Council they would not need to make a
decision on the wall at this time, as the subj ect will surface at the final design ,
stages estimated for the fall of 1996,
Mr. Tolaas asked Councilmembers and staff to review the County's proposals, eI
and provide him with acceptable and/or unacceptable options from the City's
standpoint, as it affects the community and its citizens. Mr. Tolaas stated that the
Public Hearing for the project was scheduled for October 16, 1996, and requested I
the City's official position within the next two weeks, and prior to the hearing.
Mayor Probst and Councilmembers discussed upcoming scheduled regular .
Council Meeting dates, and a time frame to provide citizens - and affected
property owners _ with as much information and input as possible prior to the
County's Public Hearing date. .
Staff was directed to contact the owner of Arden Manor Mobile Home Park as
soon as possible, and to schedule an informational meeting with the public, .
tentatively scheduled for the evening of Wednesday, September 25, 1996,
Discussion continued in how best to reduce the displacement and relocation .
impacts on the Mobile Home Park owner and residents, by shifting relocation
over a two-year period, rather than waiting until closer to construction. .
Discussion also continued regarding the bridge reconstruction, and how the City
should best approach the funding issues involved. Mayor Probst directed staffto .
schedule more discussion of this matter on a future meeting agenda.

b. Facilities - Review RFP's
Mayor Probst requested a consensus of the Councilmembers as to their opinions
I from the Council for review of the Request for Proposals of a new City Hall
facility, and options regarding interviewing times and the number of architectural
firms to interview from the five RFP's requested and received. Mayor Probst
I reiterated the Council's goal of completing the review by the end of October,
1996 at the latest.
. The consensus of the Council was to schedule all five firms for interviews during
one late afternoon and evening, and to allow 40 minutes for the interviews, with
I 20 minutes allowed for the respective firm's presentation and 20 minutes for
Council questions and clarification.
I Staff was directed to schedule interviews with the five firms, with interviews
tentatively scheduled for October 14, 1996 at 1 hour intervals from 4:30 until
completion.
I c. Assessment of City-Incurred Costs for County-Related Projects
Mayor Probst postponed discussion of the assessment of City-incurred costs for
Ie County-related projects until the Public Safety and Works Committee had
completed their review of the issues involved.
I MISCELLANEOUS ITEMS
Boulevard Tree Maintenance
Parks and Recreation Director, Cindy Walsh, requested direction from the Council on a
I concern expressed by a resident regarding stress on boulevard trees due to the dry
weather and damage from vehicular accidents and snow plowing. Staff and Council
I discussed the past practice and the portion of the City Ordinance which reads that
boulevard plantings become the responsibility of the property owners. Staff sought any
differing intent from previous Council discussions, and in particular, the Harnline A venue
. construction area.
The citizen who brought this matter to staffs attention was seeking a formal response
I from the City. Staff was directed to review Council minutes regarding road construction
on Hamline A venue, and draft a letter of response accordingly to the concerned citizen.
Councilmembers respected the citizen's concerns, however cited the continuing lack of
I resources and time limitations of staff.

MEMORANDUM
I DATE: September 27, 1996
I TO: Brian Fritsinger, City Administrator
Dwayne Stafford, Public Works Superintendent pS,
I FROM:
SUBJECT: Highway 96 Design Alternates
I Backl!round
The Highway 96 Design Concept approved earlier showed the reconstructed roadway laying in
I its original location with the addition of a service road on the south side of the highway. This
service road would have connected Round Lake Road with Old Highway IO and have one
common access to Highway 96, directly across from an Arden Manor access.
I Environmental Assessment Worksheet
I During the Environmental Assessment Study Ramsey County has learned that it may be time and
cost prohibitive to encroach into the Round Lake Wetland area with a service road. The U.S.
Fish and Wildlife department, the Department of Natural Resources and Representatives of the
Ie Department of Army believe that the Round Lake contamination problems pose no immediate
threat to the environment, if left undisturbed. It is the belief of those agencies that the
contaminates have settled down into the lake bed and, if left undisturbed, won't get into the water
I table.
Clean Up
I Neither the County nor the City know of any plan in the future to clean up Round Lake. The
Army seems to have a wait and see what happens attitude and the County and City could not
afford to get involved in a clean up project. Mr. Tolaas has contacted Mr. Fix from the Army,
I who indicates there is no known contamination of the Arden Manor soils, however the water
table below shows some contamination.
I Options
One of the options brought up by the County at the September 16 Worksession is to shift the
I alignment of the roadway farther to the north to make room for a service road in the approximate
location of what is now the east bound lane. This shift in alignment would necessitate the
relocation of approximately 17 Mobile Homes in Arden Manor Mobile Home Park. This would
I be done at 100 percent cost to Ramsey County. Also, if this shift to the north were to take place
a new bridge would be needed at 35W.
I
"
I
.
The County has also looked at several other options, but has concerns about each of these. One ..
option would be to cul-de-sac Old Highway 10 just south of Highway 96. The entrance to
Highway 96 from Old Highway 10, is currently too close to New Highway 10 for proper spacing,
In this option Round Lake Road's access would have to be moved to the east as far as possible .
without encroaching into the Round Lake Wetland area.
The only other viable option would be to try and seal off the area of Round Lake impacted by .
placing the service road in its originally planned location and clean up only that area. Mr.
Tolaas, however, is skeptical of this idea as the costs of just the service road area clean up could .
go into the millions.
He has also expressed concern that if the lake contamination was determined to have been stirred I
up trying to isolate the service road area, the County would end up responsible for cleaning the
entire lake. Mr. Tolaas has indicated this option could delay this segment of reconstruction 2-5
years in the most optimistic situation. In the worse case it could be delayed longer and any I
portion of the Highway 96 project not contracted out by the year 2005, will loose all turn back
funding.
Informational Meetin!! .
An informational meeting was held on September 25, 1996. All affected residents were invited
and most attended. Mr. Tolaas gave a brief background of the original concept and explained the .
problems with the Round Lake issue. The option of moving the alignment to the north was
presented and a question and answer session followed, with Mr. Tolaas and Mr. Fritsinger
fielding questions, Most of the questions were about the relocation program and how it would ..
help them.
Recommendation ,
The County recommends that the Arden Hills City Council consider the option of shifting the
current highway alignment north, in order to allow a service road to be constructed on the south .
side of the highway without the need to disturb any contaminated Wetland area. This service
road would attempt to connect Round Lake Road and Old Highway 10 as originally planned and
have one common access across from an Arden Manor access to Highway 96, I

I CITY OF ARDEN HILLS
I MEMORANDUM
I J
DATE: September 26, 1996
TO: Mayor and City Council
FROM: Brian Fritsinger, City Administra@
SUBJECT: Consideration of Quad Ice Arena Participation
Request
I The City Council is being asked by the Minnesota Amateur Sports Commission (MASC) and the
Mounds View/lrondale Youth Hockey Associations to consider a resolution that would approve
the City's participation in the financing, construction, and operation of a four-sheet ice facility at
. the National Sports Center in Blaine, Minnesota. The resolution is necessary by October 1, 1996
to indicate the City's intent to participate in the project so that the MASC can seek $500,000 in
Mighty Duck grant funding for the project.
I
Background
During the last several months, representatives of the Cities of Arden Hills, Mounds View, New
I Brighton and Shoreview have been meeting with representatives of several other communities,
youth hockey associations and the MASC to discuss the potential development of a four-sheet
ice complex at the National Sports Center in Blaine. Both the Mounds View and lrondale Youth
~ Hockey Associations have identified a critical need for additional ice time. See attachments for
information discussing the growing need for additional ice time.
What is the Proposal?
Under this proposal, the MASC would build and operate a four-sheet ice complex at the National
, Sports Center site in Blaine. The total cost of the project is currently estimated at $9,500,000.
I
The initial capital cost would be financed by a $500,000 down payment from each of the
I communities, a $500,000 State Mighty Ducks grant, and the issuance of bonds by Anoka
County.
. The debt service and annual operating costs for the facility would be paid by a guarantee from
each ofthe four communities and the MASC to purchase 2,080 hours of ice time at $125 per
hour for a period of twenty-five (25) years. The four communities who have been asked to
participate are Blaine, Coon Rapids, Brooklyn Park, and a consortium of Arden Hills, Mounds
View, New Brighton and Shoreview. To date, the Blaine, Coon Rapids, Mounds View, New
Brighton and Shoreview City Councils have approved the resolution authorizing their
participation in the project. Brooklyn Park was the fourth community considering participation.
However, at their September 23, 1996 meeting, the Council unanimously approved a motion in
support of constructing their own sheet of ice in Brooklyn Park.

Resolution of the Finance Committee of the City of Arden Hills
r, Adopted at the Meeting of September 26, 1996
I RESOLVED, That the Finance Committee of the City of Arden Hills hereby expresses the
foliowing concerns to the City Councii regarding the proposal that the city participate in the
I financino of a four-sheet ice arena in Blaine
.... --
Weare concerned that:
I The city's obligation to guarantee each year 15.5% of 2080 hours of ice time on one rink at
$125 per hour -- about $40,300 per year at current prices -- is in effect a growing contingent
I liability risk to our park and recreation funds for 25 years.
The long-term financial viability of the project is questionable because of the lenders'
J requirement that general obligation bonds of Anoka County be issued. The lenders must be
unwilling to rely on the guarantee of the hockey associations to service the debt. Apparently
they will not accept revenue bonds, but require the full faith and credit of the cities. The tax
J capacity of our city should not be mortgaged for 25 years.
Ramsey County has put $500,000 of our tax money in support of the project - using an
II increased levy to do so, We believe that is enough loca! support,
The size of the project -- $10 million with bonding for $7 million for 25 years of debt service --
I is out of proportion to the city's size and resources. Presently there are only 144 participants
from A'den HilS A'd"n H;IIS \"0' 'Id b" th" sm"lle"t pia"'" ;n th" "'oup -- \"" h"'''' n"

assu'~nce o' g~.t:_~ fair "ea'~~nt fo' 0' ,. p^"ti~:pant~
la! I -.;:;:t lll\:f " llll~l I UI all",' 1.:10.
I There is no draft Master Agreement to review for proper protection of the city's interest.
Management and costs of the facility will not be in the cities' control. Incentives to operate
I efficiently are lacking in a government-guaranteed revenue operation.
The hockey asssociations do not now have the promised $500,000 "escrow fund" raised. A
I $500,000 "escrow fund" would not cover 2 years' default in time commitment for one sheet of
ice.
I Arden Hills has not had the project analyzed by public finance counsel.
THEREFORE, We urge the City Council to withhold any commitment to the project.

. hours for warm-ups during September; and an additional 75 hours from Anoka County for Columbia
Arena for a Thanksgiving tournament. These hours are not included in the figures set forth above.
I Our teams do not presently have adequate ice time for practices. Approximately one-half of the ice
time used by our teams is "shared" ice: i.e. two teams on the ice at one time. Ideally, it would be
better to have only one team on the ice at a time but we are unable to do this because of our serious
I lack of ice time.
The most common complaint received by our hockey associations concerns the lack of ice time. We
.. expect that we will be able to use the 2080 hours of ice time that will be required of us by MSAC.
We also under~tand that there other organizations, such as youth soccer, figure skating. open skating,
I etc. who will want to share in the use of this facility and we look forward to discussing this subject
with you.
I The Mounds View and lrondale Youth Hockey Associations have been in the forefront of the girls
hockey movement. Our high schools were some of the first in the state to start varsity a.~d junior
varsity teams. The lrondale and Mounds View Youth Hockey Associations presently hove girls
I
I 4 We purchased 1,124 hours of ice from Ramsey County during this year at an average
I cost of $80Ihour. This figure does not include ice which was purchased from other sour:es such
as Anoka County.
I l The significant increase in ice purchases in 1993-94 is attributable to the fact L'.,at we
were able to purchase approximately 600 hours of additional ice time from Columbia A:ena.
Our hockey associations were able to utilize all of this ice time without any problems. However,
I in following years, Anoka County has been unwilling to sell us such a large block of ice
f' 6 This includes 100 hours of ice time that Irondale purchased from East Bethel.
7 This includes 45 hours of ice time that Irondale purchased from East Bethel.

PeeWee and Squirt teams (a total of four teams).8 These teams are part of the same associations that I
sponsor the boys teams. We anticipate that we will have at least one additional high school team and
several more youth girls teams next year. The present number of female participants contrasts
dramatically within the number of females that participated five years ago when we had no more than I
five to ten females participating in total throughout the youth program and no females participating at
the high schoollcvel. The Mounds View Youth Hockey Association is very dedicated to the
aclvancemt:llt of our girls hockey program but we art: also vcry conct:rnecl about possible gender I
equity problems that could arise if we are unable to meet our future ice needs, The demand for ice
will become critical this year and will only worsen in following years. We believe it to be imperative
to support the Blaine four rink complex and I ask for your support and assistance. I
It is also my belief that the construction of an ice facility in the northern suburbs will benefit residents
of the entire county because ice time that Mounds View and lrondale presently purchase at the I
existing Ramsey County rinks will be available for use by other youth associations and other users
withing the county. Our youth associations presently use all of the Ramsey County rinks. 1

I SUBJECT: Planning Cases, September of 1996
The following is a brief review of the requests and the recommendations of the Planning
I Commission, Previously, the Staff provided the City Council with the Planning Reports for
these cases and the minutes from the September 4, 1996 Planning Commission meeting.
I Case #96-18. Special Use Permit Amendment and Variance
Lake Johanna Fire Department. 3246 New Brighton Road
I A. Request. The applicant is requesting approval of an after-the-fact Special Use Permit
(SUP) amendment to allow for a 20 space parking lot to the rear of the existing Lake
-. Johanna Fire Department (LJFD) building (Exhibit A). The applicant is also requesting a
variances from the required driveway width and the minimum parking lot setback
requirement from adjacent residential uses,
I B, Background. The LJFD Fire Station No. I received an SUP in 1986 from the City in
Planning Case 86-34. The SUP is predicated on three conditions. Those conditions are:
I I. The site and building shall be used only for a three-bay fire station and for
associated office, training and social functions;
I 2. Use of the site and building for meeting and training functions shall be limited to
activities and programs related directly to Permittee;
, Use of the meeting facility for social functions shall be subject to conditions of
J.
I use as defined by the documentation filed by Permittee in connection with Case
No. 86-34; and
I 4. The lighting and landscaping installed on the subject premises shall conform to
the lighting and landscaping plans filed by the Permittee in connection \\ith Case
No. 86-34.
I The parking lot (lower level) which the applicant is requesting approval for is already
constructed. The parking lot was constructed without City approvals (SUP and building
I permit), Rice Creek Watershed District (RCWD) permit (authorized, but not issued), and
without first obtaining underground locates from Gopher State One Call. The Staff met
t' with representatives ofLJFD in August of 1995 to initially discuss the project and to
I
I
inform them of the approval process. The Staff was made aware of the pending . I
construction by transmittals from the RCWO and the applicant provided the City with a ..
preliminary site plan. The City provided the UFO, on several occasions the necessary
applications for a SUP amendment, but the completed forms were not received by the
City until after the parking lot was constructed and a stop work order was issued by the I
City.
C. Planning Commission Recommendation. The Planning Commission on September 4, I
1996 recommended denial of Planning Case #96-18, SUP amendment and Variances
(driveway width and minimum parking lot setback from residential uses), the
recommendation was based on the following findings: I
1. The variance (parking lot) requested is 88 percent (9 feet, when 75 feet is
required) to 96 percent (3 feet, when 75 feet is required) of the minimum setback I
required by the City Code is excessive and not in keeping with either the spirit or
intent of the ordinance;
2. The pond which exists on the site limits the ability to fully develop the property; I
3. Alternate sites, locations, and development concepts do exist that would allow
UFO to accomplish their current activities;
4. Governmental entities, when at all possible, should set positive examples in the I
development and design of public facilities;
5. The proximity of the parking lot to adjacent residential uses does not provide for
adequate buffering, albeit that it does provide for the 60 percent opacity .,
requirement;
6. The parking lot is not required by UFO to protect the public health, safety, I
comfort and general welfare; and
7, Approval of such an extreme variance with little or no supporting data sets a
unfavorable precedence for the review all future variance cases. I
Updates. The Staff met with UFO after the Planning Commission meeting to discuss
D,
methods to avoid or minimize the variance request. Staff provided UFO with several I
concepts to consider (Exhibit A-1). The first concept to consider is to add approximately
three parking spaces in the southwest comer of the lower parking area. The second
concept to consider is to add approximately five parking spaces in the southwest comer of I
the northerly upper parking area. The second concept would require the closure of an
access point to the northerly upper parking area. The third concept to consider is to add
approximately four parking spaces to the east side of the southerly upper parking area. I
The third concept would require the dumpster to be relocated to a new undetermined
location, These three concepts could add 12 new parking spaces to the UFO property. If I
the three concepts are enacted, then the ten parking spaces on the northerly row of
parking on the lower level parking area and the easternmost two parking spaces on the
southerly row of parking on the lower level parking area could be eliminated. The I
resultant setbacks from these modifications would be 21 feet from the northerly property
line and 39 feet from the easterly property line. ..
I
I
I .
, The applicant provided Staff a modification, dated September 24, 1996, which would
I'
implement a version of first concept (Exhibit A-2), The LJFD concept would add two
parking spaces in the southwest comer of the lower level parking area. The LJFD
concept would also eliminate the easternmost four parking spaces and the
I northwesternmost two parking spaces from the lower level parking area. The LJFD
concept would also reduce the parking stall depth of the northerly row of parking on the
lower level parking area by two feet. The LJFD concept would result in at least a six foot
I setback from the north property line and at least a 41 foot setback from the east property
line.
I Case #96-13. Variances - Front & Side Yard Setback
James Danielson. 3238 North Hamline Avenue
I A. Request. The applicant requests approval of front and side yard setback variances to
allow for the construction of a 22 foot by 24 foot detached garage (Exhibit B). The front
I yard setback is proposed to have a 12 foot front yard setback while 40 feet is required and
a side yard setback of five feet while 10 feet is required.
I B. Background. The garage is proposed to be placed within the triangular area of the site
which was formerly used as a Ramsey County Pump site for Lake Josephine. The garage
would be in approximately the same area now occupied by the pump house (used by the
Ie applicant for storage). Immediately east of the proposed garage is the applicants existing
driveway which would provide access to the garage.
I In order to achieve even the proposed 12 foot front yard, the garage has to be placed 5 ft,
from the south side lot line, where a lOft. setback is required. So in this case, both
variances are tied together. The triangular area is too small to allow rotating or moving
I the garage to result in a substantially reduced variance(s) request.
I Although the present pump house is located within the perimeter of the proposed garage
it has about a 15 foot front yard and a 7 foot side yard, Due to its round shape and
smaller size, it does not seem out of place within the required 40 foot front yard along
I Hamline Avenue.
The conclusion ofthe Planning Commission and Staff was that there are other locations
I on the site that would allow the garage to be constructed without variances and would be
consistent with garage locations on neighboring properties. A garage could be located in
the northeast corner of the lot between the present driveway and the east property line and
I would fit within the standard building envelope. It would be similar in location to the
garage on the adjoining property to the east and would leave ample open space in the
"rear" yard. Also, the applicant could add on to their existing garage to provide
I additional space.

C. Planning Commission Recommendation. The Planning Commission on September 4, .
1996 recommended denial of Planning Case #96-13, Variances (front and side yard ..
setback), the recommendation was based on the following findings:
1. There are alternative locations on the site without topographic or lot configuration
issues that would comply with ordinance requirements; I
2. There are no neighborhood development patterns that would suggest that the
requested variance would allow the subject property to more nearly conform to I
neighborhood standards;
3. Although three car garages are commonplace in some neighborhoods, the three or
four garage spaces proposed for this site are not common in this neighborhood I
and their is no apparent precedent indicating that every homeowner is entitled to
three or four garage spaces; and
4. The conditions regarding health, safety, comfort and general welfare of the public I
(applicant's rationale #3) are not grounds for a variance, but have to exist even if
there are grounds for a variance.
D. Updates. None. I
Case #96-14. Variance - Front & Side Yard Setback I
Bernard & Rhonda Brouillettc. 3320 Lake Johanna Boulevard
A. Request. The applicant requests approval offront and side yard setback variance to "
allow for the construction of a 24 foot by 30 foot detached garage (Exhibit C). The front
yard setback is proposed to be 20 feet while 40 feet is required and the side yard is I
proposed to be 5 feet while 10 feet is required.
B, Background. The property currently does not have a garage. Nearly all of the garages I
on the lots along this section of Lake Johanna Boulevard and along Sandeen Road to the
south (about 17 homes) were constructed close to the street with only a small drive apron
between the garage and street. The garage on the lot to the north is approximately 12 ft. I
from the curb and the garage to the south is about 13 feet from the curb. The paving
width of lake Johanna Boulevard occupies nearly all of the right-of-way with perhaps two
to three feet of boulevard on each side. The 20 foot setback requested will allow cars to I
park on the apron (an advantage not enjoyed by most of the properties in this area along
Lake Johanna Boulevard), as well as in the garage. I
The applicant proposes to construct the new garage with a five foot setback from the
south property line and 18 feet from the north property line. A 10 foot side yard setback 1
is required, so a five foot variance is requested. The previous garage on this site was
placed on fill which still remains as a level area in the SW comer of the site, The
Planning Commission and the Staff would conclude that the rationale for the front yard I
variance does not apply to the side yard variance and that the standard 10 foot setback
should be used. The side yard setbacks will then be 10 feet on the south and 13 feet on ..
the north.
I
---- --- ---
I
:- .
. C. Planning Commission Recommendations. The Planning Commission on September 4,
1996 recommended approval of Planning Case #96-14, Variance (front yard setback - 20
feet).
I Also, the Planning Commission on September 4, 1996 recommended denial of Planning
Case #96-14, Variance (side yard setback - 5 feet). The recommendation for denial was
based on the following findings:
I I. An alternative exists to place the garage in a location that meets the standard
setbacks;
I 2. The severe topography that was discussed in the front yard setback variance does
not affect the side yard variance. Some additional fill will be required as the
garage is moved further north. So the hardship is of a minor financial nature; and
I 3. The lots to the north and south have observed setbacks that appear to be 10 feet or
more in width and the lot to the north especially has a very similar topographic
condition,
I D. Updates. The applicant provided the City with a letter dated September 18, 1996 stating
I that they are in agreement with the recommendations of the Planning Commission
(Exhibit C-1).
-- Case #96-15, Variance - Front & Side Yard Setback
Thomas & Jean Fabel. 1550 Edl!ewater Avenue
I A. Request, The applicant requests approval of a front and side yard variance to facilitate
the remodeling of a single-car tuck-under garage into a two-car tuck-under garage
(Exhibit D). The remodeled two-car tuck-under garage would extend 2.1 feet into the
I required 40 foot front yard setback and 7,0 feet into the required ten foot side yard
setback.
I B. Background. The existing garage has a front yard setback of 43.4 feet. The proposed
garage expansion would extend the garage forward 5.5 feet resulting in a setback of37.9
feet or a variance of 2.1 feet would be required. The applicant states that when the
I existing eave over the garage entrance and a masonry shed and planter box alongside of
but nearer the street than the garage are removed, the visual impact will be about the same
I as the new garage. The applicant also states the construction will require the installation
of an I beam which cannot be extended to the rear of the house due to the beams
dimensional requirements. Therefore, the garage needs to come out approximately two
I feet and thus the front yard variance request. The front yard variance request would also
provide sufficient room to provide an outside access door to the garage.
I
~
I
I
. ~
The applicant proposes to extend the sidewall of the garage 7.4 feet toward the east
property line, leaving a setback of3 feet. As the wall is now setback 10.4 feet, a 7 foot
variance is requested. A three foot wide stair now abutting the garage would also be
moved to the east property line to occupy the remaining three feet. A six foot high stone
retaining wall runs along the east property line and curves sharply to the west to meet the I
above described shed/planter box. This curved portion is proposed to be removed and the
wall extended along the edge of the relocated stairs and the property line, The steep
topography, the retaining wall, the tuck-under garage and the fact that the neighboring I
home to the east is rotated away from the subject property will minimize the impact of
the proposed garage on the adjacent property. The 80 foot wide lot is 15 feet narrower
than now required in the R-1 District so the lot width not being as wide as a standard lot I
in the same district is a factor in this case.
C. Planning Commission Recommendation. The Planning Commission on September 4, I
1996 recommended approval of Planning Case #96-15, Variances (providing a 37.9 foot
front yard setback and a 3.0 foot side yard setback).
D, Updates. None required. I
Case #96-16. Preliminary Minor Subdivision I
Virllil Vinz.1268 West Amble Road
A. Request. The applicant is requesting approval of a preliminary minor subdivision (land till
swap) affecting two parcels zoned R-I Single Family Residential District (Exhibit E).
B. Background, The applicant currently owns both 1268 and 1274 West Amble Road. The I
applicant lives in 1268 and rents 1274 West Amble Road. The applicants request states
that the purpose for the preliminary minor subdivision is the area in question contains the I
garden and extended yard area for their home (1268 West Amble Road). If one owns
both properties, then this should not be an issue. However, if either property were to be
sold, then the resolution of this issue would appear to be appropriate. 1
The Planning Commission's and the Staffs review of this matter would indicate that this
request appears to comply with the applicable requirements of the City Code. However, I
the both have a minor concern over creating unusually configured parcels of property.
Given, the size of the resultant parcel (40,342 square feet), the City might anticipate a I
future request to split off the rear portion of this property for the construction of
additional housing. The apparent lack of access and the reduced size of those potential
lots in relationship to the adjacent neighborhood would be issues which would require I
closer evaluation at that time.
C. Planning Commission Recommendation. The Planning Commission on September 4, I
1996 recommended approval of Planning Case #96-16, Preliminary Minor Subdivision,
subject to the provision of the necessary drainage and utility easements. -.

,. Case #96-12. Site Plan. Variance. and Easement Vacation
Oakdale Develol)ment Co.. 4300 Ronnd Lake Road
I A. Request. The applicant is requesting approval of a site plan to facilitate the construction
of a 154,237 square foot industrial building on a 11.45 acre parcel zoned Gateway
I Business (Exhibit F). The applicant is also requesting approval of variances for alternate
exterior building materials and to allow for 20 percent of the building to be in office uses,
rather than the required 25 percent. Lastly, the applicant is requesting approval of the
I vacation of a sanitary sewer easement which encumbers a portion of the property.
B. Background. The Gateway Business (GB) zoning district was adopted in 1988, after a
I lengthy study by the Planning Commission. The Planning Study For NE 1-694/l-35W
was the basis for the zoning district which was adopted. The property within the GB
district was viewed upon at that time as being the last major undeveloped parcel in the
I City and its most visible, Consequently, it represented an opportunity to maximize the
return of the City's invested assets and enhance the image of the City as a fine place to
live and work,
I The Zoning Ordinance in Section V, D, 9, states that the purpose of the Gateway
Ie Business zoning district is as follows:
1. To implement that part of Arden Hills Comprehensive Development Plan known
, as the l-694/I-35W Plan;
I 2, To promote high quality, unified, large scale development in a manner similar to a
planned unit development;
I , To take full advantage of the site's location as documented and described in the 1-
.).
694/l-35W Plan;
4. To allow only development that will create an attractive environment and a
I positive image for this site which is one of the most visible in the community and
represents the City's last major development site;
5. To protect the site's environmental resources;
I 6. To promote flexibility in land uses and development standards to achieve the
objectives of the 1-694/1-35W Plan; and
I 7. To allow development that will insure reasonable traffic operation on the internal
and surrounding transportation systems.
I C. Planning Commission Recommendation. The Planning Commission on September 4,
1996 recommended approval of Planning Case #96-12, Site Plan, Variances (Exterior
Building Material and 20% office), and utility easement vacation (sanitary sewer), subject
I to the following conditions:
it 1. Moditication of the southwesterly access point onto Round Lake Road to
Butcher's Street;
I
I
2. Receipt of title to the MnDOT parcel by the applicant; I
3. Approval of the grading, drainage, and erosion control plan by the Rice Creek ..
Watershed District;
4. Issuance ofa General Construction Storm Water Permit from the MPCA;
5. Issuance of the necessary wetland fill exemptions and/or permits from the 1
necessary local, state, and federal agencies;
6. The smallest amount of bare ground is exposed for as short as time as feasible;
7. Temporary ground cover, such as mulch, is used and permanent ground cover, I
such as sod, is established;
8. Methods to prevent erosion and trap sediments are employed;
9. Fill is stabilized to accepted engineering standards, approved by the city engineer; I
10. Modification of the landscape materials to provide for acceptable plant materials;
11. Provision of the necessary amount of landscape materials;
12. No fuel storage or overnight truck storage is permitted; I
13. Provision of a conservation easement over that portion of the site lying outside of
the grading limits on the lake side of the site;
14. Integration of brick or stone in the building entrances; and I
15. Modification of the west building wall to include windows, color, architectural
relief and articulation similar to the north wall.
D. Updates. The applicant has modified several portions of their plan per the direction of I
the Planning Commission's recommendation, The modifications made relate to eI
conditions; 1,3,4,5,10,11,14, and 15.
1. Condition #1. The applicant has modified the access point such that it is I
consistent with the recommendations of the Planning Commission and Staff.
2. Condition #3. The RCWD approved the grading, drainage, and erosion control I
plan at their August 28, 1996 meeting,
.
3, Condition #4. The applicant has received the necessary permit from the MPCA. I
4. Condition #5. The RCWD approved the proposed wetland modifications at their
August 28, 1996 meeting. I
5. Condition #10. The applicant has modified the landscape plan such that the plan
contains acceptable plant materials. I
6. Condition #11. The applicant has modified the landscape plan to quantify the I
plant materials that are proposed to be saved. The required landscaping for the
154,237 square foot building can be summarized as follows:
I
..
I
I
~e Caliper Inches Percentage Caliper Inches
I Required Required
2" to 3" 50 percent 241 inches
I 3.5" to 4" 30 percent 145 inches
4.5" to 5" 20 percent 96 inches
I Total 100 percent 482 inches
I The following summarizes the relationship of the required landscaping to that
which is being provided:
I Caliper Caliper Inches Caliper Inches Caliper Inches Total Inches
Inches Required Provided Saved Provided
I 2" to 3" 241 inches 154.4 inches o inches 154.4 inches
3.5" to 4" 145 inches 71.3 inches 4 inches 75.3 inches
I 4.5"to 5" 96 inches 24.6 inches 1359 inches 1383,6 inches
Ie Total 482 inches 250.4 inches 1363 inches 1613.3 inches
7. Condition #14. The applicant has modified the exterior of the building to provide
I for brick at the entrances of the building.
8. Condition #15, The applicant has modified the exterior of the building to provide
I a west building wall which includes windows, color, architectural relief and
articulation similar to the north wall,
I Also, the applicant wishes to clarify further the office percentage requirement (Exhibit F-
1). The Zoning Ordinance in Section V, K, 3, a, states that Office uses in the GB district
I must occupy at least 25 percent and not more than 50 percent of a project's total floor
area. The applicant has provided information that the current market for this type of
building in the Twin Cities is at 18 percent to 22 percent Office, The Staff in its
1 memorandum and the Planning Commission in its deliberations both recommended
approval of a variance to allow for 20 percent Office.
I Subsequent to the Planning Commission meeting an issue arose which deals with the
Office percentage requirement. The applicant is primarily concerned about the transition
period which will arise when one tenant leaves and reduces the percent of office in the
I building below the required amount. If the applicant were to bring in a tenant which did
not bring the percentages in line with what the Zoning Ordinance requires, then the City
,. could withhold occupancy permits even if there were additional vacancies in the building.
I
-----.-- ---..-
I
The applicant is requesting a waiver from this provision of the Zoning Ordinance _I
(Section V, K, 3, a). If a waiver cannot be granted, then the applicant requests that the
office requirement be lowered to eight percent to allow for flexibility during tenant I
transition periods. The applicant states in the request that they fully intend to comply
with the Prohibited Uses section of the GB zoning district standards (Section V, K, 4), If I
the City Council approves this request, then compliance with the Zoning Ordinance,
Section V, K, 4, should be a condition of the variance.
E, Note. Assuming that the City Council approves Planning Case 96-12, then the City I
Council may wish to provide specific expectations on the exterior of future buildings or
other important site issues. As example, the expectation for future building exteriors in I
the GB district would be:
1. A continuation of the quality of the exterior materials approved in Planning Case I
96-12; or
2, An increased gradation from the quality of the exterior materials approved in
Planning Case 96-12 (ie., 25% - 50 % - 75% brick, stone, or glass). I

Concerning: Planning Case #96-18
Lake Johanna Volunteer Fire Department's I
Request for Special Use Permit and Variances
Thank you for the opportunity to speak in opposition OF the Lake Johanna Volunteer Fire .-
Department's request for a change to their special use permit and variances. I am a resident of Arden
Hills whose property directly abuts the Lake Johanna Volunteer Fire Department (LJVFD) to the east I
for approximately 77 feet. My property abuts LJVFD along the entire easterly boundary where the
parking lot was built this summer. (See attachment #1, a survey of my property done in May 1996 I
and attachment #2, photographs showing new parking lot in relation to abutting properties and
existing/available parking taken on August 24 and September 3, 1996)
I request that all matters brought before this meeting be denied and that no changes in the existing I
special use permit or variances be allowed for the following reasons which will be discussed in detail I
in the content of the materials:
1. The character of the lrovemmental action I
2. Reasons lriven for building the parking lot-is it a convenience?
(See attachment #3, letter dated August 20 from District Chief to the City) I
3. The distinct investment-backed and investment-based exoectations involved in the I
purchase of the property at 1850 Beckman A venue
..

I
I 4. The acquisition of the property at 1850 Beckman Avenue was based on:
A. A knowledge of and a reliance on the Arden Hills Com1Jrehensive Plan. the
I Zoning District. and the Zoning Ordinances.
I B. The results of a two-hour meeting on May 21 st with the Arden Hills Director
of Community Development in which he reviewed land use and values.
zoning ordinances. the LJVFD's special use designation. etc,
I c. Based exclusively on items A. and B.. an offer was made on the property. The
I offer was accepted on the evening of Mav 21 st.
5. The adverse economic impact the parking lot would have on my property.
.. Specifically, the construction of the parking lot creates an economic disparity: it
increases the value of the LJVFD Trust, which owns the property, on which the
I parking lot has been built while, at the same time, decreasing the property value of
the abutting property owners.
I Although my formal presentation will be brief, this letter and attachments address a numberof issues,
The first four directly relate to the Planning Commission's mandate, the fifth may have relevance to
I other governmental agencies:
. Specific reasons for requesting that no change in the special use permit
or variances be granted
I . LJVFD's stated reasons for building the parking lot
. Background regarding my involvement with the property, May 21 to present
. Process
I . Financial accountability
I During the past month, several neighbors have shared with me their concerns and comments
regarding the matters before the Planning Commission this evening. I have not asked them to speak
on my behalf, although several offered to do so and a number of their thoughts are incorporated within
I these remarks.

With these materials, I respectfully request that the Planning Commission recommend against the I
changes requested and that they recommend to the City Council that LJVFD be required to remove
the parking lot and restore the land to its previously grassed condition.
I appreciate your consideration of these remarks and hope you contact me at 636-6008 should there I
be other information you require. I

It SUMMARY OF IMPACT OF GRANT REQUESTS BROUGHT BEFORE THIS HEAR-
ING:
I PLEASE REFER TO ITEMS ON PRECEDING PAGE AND DETAILED ON FOLLOWING
PAGES. THIS SUMMARY IS DEVELOPED ACCORDING TO THE LANGUAGE IN
PLACE IN ARDEN HILLS CONCERNING THE PLANNING COMMISISONS RESPON-
I SlBILITIES WHEN CONSIDERING VARIANCES AND SPECIAL USE PERMIT
CHANGES, ETC.
. . Impair general welfare (see Items 3- 5)
I . Changes requested are contrary to the intent, purpose, and explicit wording of the
Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinances (see Items 1 through 5)
I . Variances shall not allow a use in a district that is not otherwise allowed
(see Items 1 through 4) as well as definition of "shall" as a mandatory term
I . The Council may impose conditions in the granting of variances to insure
compliance and protect adjacent properties [that was done when the special
.. use permit was originally issued and, further, when the Zoning Ordinances
were agreed to in 1993]-(see Item 1)
. Previous cases provision-there are no precedents for these requests
I (see Item 1)
I . The variance should not be greater than necessary to accomplish the
landowner's objective-the objective is convenience-based. There are
alternative solutions which should be pursued (see Item 2)
. . Alternative locations, development concepts, or space requirements exist
(see recommendations identified Item 2)
I . The variance requested is not consistent with the surrounding development
I (see Item I as well as comment about state statutes regarding variances)
. Conforming to the literal provisions would result in undue hardship (see
I Item 2 and disparity issue identified in Item 5)
The variance would improve an existing nonconforming condition (on the
.
I contrary, the granting of a variance would create a nonconforming condition-
see Items 1, 3, and 5)
f' . The variance would nOL..substantially diminish or impair property values within
the neighborhood (see items 3 and 5)
I Arden Hills Planning Commission Meeting, September 4, 1996. page 6
114, I
IN ADDITION, THE GRANTING OF SUCH CHANGES WOULD: I
..
. Create a loss of property value
. Have a negative impact on buildability I
. Be contrary to the Comprehensive Plan and Code which call for a 75' setback I
(the parking lot was constructed with a 9' setback)
. Set a precedent for other organizations to come in expecting the same variances I
. Reduce or negate the value of portions of the Comprehensive Plan, Code, and Zoning
Ordinances I
. Call into question the role of a quasi-governmental organization, LJVFD, as an I
organization which did not know/comply with City-mandated procedures and
processes under which it operates. LJVFD receives tax dollars to provide services. As I
a quasi-governmental agency, should the City expect them to set an example?
. Reduce the value of an unsolicited offer and expressions of interest 1 have received ..
for the land from Arden Hills residents, developers, and Realtors
. Diminish property values of abutting and nearby property owners I
. Reduce my ability to improve my abutting property I
. Send a signal that it is OK to ignore City Ordinances, thereby creating a precedent
regarding the strength and ability of the Planning Commission to uphold the City's I
City's codes, ordinances, and Comprehensive Plan
. Suggest that large sums of city monies can be spent without explicit city knowledge, I
without accountability, without requiring alternatives to be adequately addressed,
without exploring other options, and perhaps without seeking competitive bids I
. Infer LJVFD was presented with a blank check to spend I
. Call into question provisions of Minnesota State Statute 462.357 on Planning and
Zoning variance I

1. THE CHARACTER OF THE GOVERNMENTAL ACTION .-
The existing Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinances as well as the Special Use Permit I
which was granted to the Lake Johanna Volunteer Fire Department Trust are clear. There is no reason
for a change. Key reasons include: I
A. Residents and taxpayers rely on City ~overnment and its elected and appointed
officials to adhere to the Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinancesand it was I
with that reliance that I purchased my property in June of 1996.
B. It important to ask the Plannin~ Commission to seriously Question what the I
character of any ~overnmental action would be which would support the actions
taken by LJVFD. its en~ineers. and its contractor in this matter
C. There is no precedent for the actions LJVFD, its engineers, and its contractor I
took. There is no precedent for the legal approvals they are now seeking for those
actions. I
. This point is particularly important because of the Quasi-~overnmental role the
LJVFD has as a contracted provider of services to Arden Hills, now in the
ninth year of a ten year contract with the city. If anything, LJVFD should be I
setting the standards, not unknowingly or knowingly breaking or ignoring them.
In addition., both of the firms hired to engineer and install the parking lot also do ..
contract work for the City of Arden Hills. Both should have a clear understanding
of the City's permitting procedures, the Zoning Ordinances, etc. and be able to
coordinate their efforts adequately to "check-off" completed requirements I
. This point is also particularly important because of the special use conditions
under which LJVFD is permitted to operate in a residential area, including the I
requirement for a 75 foot setback from anv abutting: residential property (they
built the parking lot nine feet from my property, thus being in noncompliance
by 66 feet). .
D. Should the Plannin~ Commission consider ~rantin~ the chan~es requested bv
the LJVFD. it would set a precedent. That precedent would open the door for I
other organizations wishing to operate in noncompliance of special use permits.
It would also open the door to organizations wishing to locate in Arden Hills in
noncompliance of existing Comprehensive Plan and Zoning Ordinance -
restrictions. Such an action would, in effect, serve to jeopardize the real and
potential value of residential property throughout our community. I
And, finally, I call your attention to the provisions of Minnesota State Statute 462.357 on Housing,
Redevelopment, Planning, and Zoning. One of the conditions of the statute states that: The board of I
appeals and adjustments or the government body as the case may be, may not permit as a variance
any use that is not permitted under the ordinance forproperty in the zone where the affected person's ..
land is located

-. 2. REASONS GIVEN BY LJVFD FOR BUILDING THE PARKING LOT
In speaking with the deputy chief and a member of the LJVFD, I asked why they needed the
20-space parking lot. 1 was told that:
. They prefer to park on the lower level. However. when parking on the grass. the
land became muddv in the sprin~ and fall
- It should be noted that blacktopped parking already existing at the site
includes:
.. A parking lot for 15 cars on the upper parking area to the
north of the fire house (see attachment #2-2)
.. A second parking lot for 12 cars on the upper level to the south of the
fire house (see attachment #2-3)
.. A roughly 12-15 foot wide paved area to the north of the fire house
which, perhaps, could accommodate 4-5 additional cars parked
parallel to the road (see attachment #2-4)
- LJVFD provides services to several communities at four fire stations, of
-
which the Arden Hills fire station is one. In total, the organization has about
- 70 participants. Because Arden Hills is one of the less populated
communities, it would seem that the available 25+ spaces which already
existed would have be adequate for normal day-to-day use
- In addition, Trinity Lutheran Church is located half a block to the north and
has a parking lot with over 100 spaces. LJVFD has used their parking lot in
the past, according to conversation with the Pastor's Office on September 4,
1996. With advance notice, the north side ofthe lot is available at no charge.It
is suggested that LJVFD contact the pastor to make arrangements to use some
of that space when overflow parking is needed. (see attachments 2-5, 2-6)
. Training sessions are held from time to time which involve 20-30 firedghters from
all four LJVFD locations (held on Tuesday evenings and Saturdays several times
during the vear

2. REASONS GIVEN BY LJVFD OFFICIALS FOR BUILDING THE PARKING LOT, .
CONTINUED
In addition, the fire chief advised the City of Arden Hills that the parking lot was built
primarily for overflow parking.
Suggestions:
. In addition to making overflow parking arrangements with the Church, which has
a large blacktopped parking lot, there is also LJVFD's Shoreview Fire Station, located
about two miles from Arden Hills and about six miles from the Arden Hills station.
It has a large parking area, is across the street from a school parking lot, and is in a
nonresidential area. Perhaps LJVFD should consider holding large group or
combined training and demonstration events at that location.
Other:
. The lower area where the new parking lot was built is dark and isolated from the
street. The fire chief has advised the city that "no lighting of any kind is being
requested at this time." It is suggested that, should the Planning Commission decide -.
to recommend approval, the lighting issues should be addressed prior to a
decision or recommendation to City Council. The lack of lighting on a parking lot of ~
that size could represent a safety hazard. At the same time, the installation of lighting
could represent an additional series of permit and variance issues.
(see attachment #4)
In summary, it is suggested that the building of the parking lot was based on convenience and
that other ways to solve the occasional overflow parking needs are available and free, For this
reason alone, it is recommended that the request for special use and variances be denied, that
the parking lot be removed, and that the land be returned to its pre-parking lot condition,

.. History
The prior owner of the residence at 1850 Beckman A venue was Ruth Sullivan. At one point,
I she offered LJVFD an Opportunity to purchase some of her land to increase the buffer zone. The
organization chose not to do so.
I Backl:round
In November of] 995, I began searching for a property in a several mile radius of County Road D
I and Lake Johanna Boulevard. I worked with a Realtor who lives in Arden Hills.
On Mav 21. 1996, I was shown the house and property at 1850 Beckman Avenue. The lot is
I approximately 1.3 acres in size, approximately 77' feet of which abutLJVFD and forms their eastern
boundary. When I saw the property, the LJVFD area behind my property was grass.
I Since the asking price of the house was higher than what other homes in the immediate area had sold
for over the past 3 years, I asked the Realtor to prepare a Market Analysis Information Package for
me. While that was being done, I went to the Arden Hills City Hall where I had an extended
conversation with the Director of Community Development. That discussion was specific concern-
mg:
a) LJVFD as a neighbor, their land use provisions, zoning restrictions, special use
permit, etc.
. b) Land use and taxation considerations for the property

In addition, the Director of Community Development was aware that in the past
c) ..
LJVFD had some interest in the property. He suggested 1 contact the fire chief
to discuss this and to explore an easement to my property through LJVFD's property
d) During that conversation and subsequently, I reviewed the Arden Hills I
Comprehensive Plan, the LJVFD Special Use Permit, and the Arden Hills
Zoning Ordinance (Ordinance No. 291. adopted on April 12. 1993) in order to be
clear that in urchasin a ro ert abuttin a "s ecial use" facilit it would not I

PERCEIVED VALUE OF THE LAND, B) STRENGTH OF THE EXISTING
I COMPREHENSIVE PLAN, ORDINANCES, AND SPECIAL USE PROVI-
SIONS IN PLACE TO PROTECT MY INVESTMENT.*
I On June 14. 1996 I became the owner of the property. As of that date, there was no parking lot on
the LJVFD property, no building permit had been applied for or was posted, nor was there any reason
to consider that any use would be made of the property that was in variance to the special use permit
I or the Zoning Ordinances. Had anv of these conditions chang-ed prior to my buying- the propertv. I
would most probablv not have purchased the residence and land.
I During the week of June 17, 1996, I made time to introduce myself to a number of my neighbors,
including telephoning the deputy fire chief to introduce myself as the "backyard neighbor" to the east.
During the conversation, the fire chief advised me that LJVFD
I a) Intended to build a parking lot
b) Had received all the necessary approvals for the parking lot**
.. c) Had no interest in purchasing any of my land and
I d) No substantive discussion developed concerning an easement
Imagine my surprise upon returning to my home a few weeks later. One of my new neighbors urged
I me to take a look at the just-built parking lot and to note that construction debris and branches had
been left on my property. I tried to contact the fire chief. When I couldn't reach him, I left a voice mail
advising him that:
I a) The debris and branches should be moved
I b) The parking lot was very close to my property line and asked that he call back

I
I wanted to talk with the fire chief before discussing the matter with the city. When he called back --
about a week later, the fire chief advised me that:
a) LJVFD thought the land in question was community land*
b) LJVFD had discussed the matter with the City and there were other problems, I
including the need to widen the driveway to 25'
c) LJVFD had hired an engineer and a contractor to design and build the parking lot for I
them. LJVFD apparently didn't know that they needed a building permit or that they
were out of compliance with the special use permit under which LJVFD operates ** I
d) LJVFD would seek a variance and needed to get the names of property owners with-
in 350 feet for the City. The fire chief took my name/address to add to the 1ist.***
e) LJVFD had granted an easement to the property owner to the north of the parking lot I
as they prepared to build the parking lot
On August 28,1996, my sister who lives on Lake Johanna Boulevard telephoned to tell me that she I
had just been approached by a LJVFD firefighter to sign a petition to save four trees (see attachment
2-9, the cottonwoods in question and attachment 5, the petition circulated by the fire department I
on August 28th) and to sign the variance which would not require widening the driveway. The
language also referenced "the new driveway." When talking with the firefighter, and four others who
were soliciting signatures in the area, it became clear that the firefighters were not aware that the ..
parking lot itself represented a zoning and permit issue. The fire chief and I talked that evening. He
felt the petition and signatures was a separate issue and it was unnecessary for LJVFD to have made
residents aware of the other part of the reason for the hearing. 1 emphasized that if LJVFD chose to I
use the signatures (which he emphasized were only solicited from those people living within 350 feet
of the fire station), the way in which the petition was presented to residents should also be brought
to the attention of the Planning Commission. I
. Hard to fathom that since my surveying stakes and LNFD stakes were within inches of each other and 1 had I
introduced myself as the neighbor abutting to the east in our prior telephone conversation
.. Besides a potential conflict of interesl, it is unusual that neither the engineer, the contractor, nor LJVFD knew I
that the parking lot broke a number of Zoning and Special Use ordinances.
... 1 did not receive a copy of the Notice of the Special Hearing. Upon calling City Hall, 1 was told it had gone
out and my name was not on the list LJVFD submitted. The city faxed me a copy. 1 called the fire chief. He I
said that they prepared lwo lists and send the other one to the city (i.e., the list which did nol include my name)

,. 5. DISPARITY ISSUE
I Should the parking lot be permitted to remain, it would have an
adverse economc impact on me. One example of this concerns the
disparity issue.
I Specifically, the installation of the 20-car blacktopped parking lot
creates an economic disparity. At the same time that it increases
I the value of the land owned by the LJVFD Trust, it also decreases
the value of the abutting properties. In addition, to alesserdegree,
I it decreases the value of the properties within the 350 feet
boundary identified by the City.
I The question becomes how a remedy would be created for the
impacted property owners if the Planning Commission and the
I City Council approved the variance and other items requested by
LJVFD.

PROCESS ISSUES ..
This meeting and its attendant taxpayer costs could easily have been avoided if:
LJVFD had: . Read the Special Use provisions under which they operate I
. Read the Zoning Ordinances
. Quizzed their engineering and contractor about these issues I
. Given serious consideration to alternate ways to meet their parking
needs, particularly in attempting to find a solution which would not
cost taxpayers $ 17,000+ I
. Incorporated the need for a parking lot in their 5 year capital
expenditure plan I
. Incorporated the need for a parking lot in their 1996 budget
[each of the last two items would have given the city the opportunity
to be aware of the expenditure prior to its being made] I
. Discussed their interest in a parking lot with City Officials prior to
putting it in the ground I
. Called a meeting of interested homeowners to discuss the
implications of building the parking lot, the reasons for wanting it,
the attendant costs, and their plans for landscaping, fencing, and ..
lighting it (each of which represent additional costs)
EnlZineers/Contractors had: I
. Complied with existing ordinances
. Applied for a building permit I
. Considered possible conflict of interest issues and discussed them
with LJVFD and the city I
Property Owner had:
. Not relied on fire chiefs statement of having received all approvals I
and asked to see plans for the parking lot prior to its being installed I
In brief, in this situation, a large number of process steps were either unknown to the involved
parties, were ignored, or were deliberately avoided. At this point, the issue is not who did what, but I
rather if and how corrective actions will be taken. It is for that reason that I respectfully request the
Planning Council to a) deny the special use permit and variances, b) require the LJVFD to remove
the parking lot and c) restore the area to its original condition. In addition, in conformance with the I
existing Zoning Ordinance, I further request that LJVFD be required to d) install property line ..
fencing at the rear of my property (their eastern boundary) and e) landscape the boundary as required.
Arden Hills Planning Commission Meeting, September 4, 1996. page 16 I
I 'lm
I 'FISCAL ACCOUNTABILITY
,. Although this is not a matter which is of direct importance to the Planning Commission, this
situation highlights the importance of urging closer scrutiny of all organizations (public, pri vate,
I nonprofit, and trusts) which do business with the city and the attendant fiscal responsibility all parties
bear. One approach would be to have organizations which do more than $50,000 per annum with the
I city be put on an expenditures review cycle. Here again, this sort of system would spread the
responsibility for accountability and, it is expected, would provide taxpayer efficiencies and possible
savings.
I Particularly concerning LJVFD, it is suggested that much more detailed budget preparation
I be required to avoid lack of knowledge about major capital expense line items (e.g., $17,000+ in this
case) in the future. It is suggested that this is a protective mechanism for service providers, the city
and, ultimately, the taxpayers.

- Re: Additional information requested in letter datcd 8/13/96 Case 96-18 Special use pennit application.
Dear Mr. Ringwald,
I The information requested regarding the Revised Site Survey, Site Plan and Grading Plan is to supplied
by MSA Consulting, the additional Landscaping Plan, and Lighting Plan are as follows:
I 1. Lighting plan - At present there is no Lighting of any kind used in the "new Parking lot" area. Further
at this time we are not requesting any additional lighting for the parking lot.
I 2. Landscape plan - Because of the large number of trees on the north property line, and after lengthy
discussions with the homeowners, we are proposing to plant lilac shrubs every 3-4 Ft.
along the north and east property lines. We believe this ,viII add to the existing
I landscaping very nicely. The lilac Schrubs were reconunended by the homeO\mers
at the north property line, so they would still be able to view the pond,
.. If you have any questions or conunents, please contact me on my digital pager at 526-5291, or you may
leave a message with our secretary at 481-7025.

Re: Revised Parking lot size, Revised Landscaping plans, Variances Case#96-18.
I Dear Mr. Ringwald,
. The Lake Johanna Vol. Fire Dept. has decided to change the demeusions ofthe parking lot as
follows: We are proposing to cut two (2) feet off the north side of the parking lot, also we would
remove two parking stalls on the northwest corner of the lot, which would be returned to grass area.
In addition we are proposing to cut thirty one (31) feet off tbe east side of the parking lot area.
I This would change the setbacks distance as shown on the map from four (4) feet to six (6) feet on the
north side. The setback distance on the East side would change from nine (9) feet to forty (40) feet.
I We are also proposing to add two (2) additional parking spaces to the southwest corner of the
existing parking lot, we woutd then install a surmountable curb in this area to a1tow access to the
building and also help channel all water from upper parking lot to the catch basin.
.. Landscaping plan will also be revised to the following: on tbe north property line we are proposing
to plant three sprnce trees in place of the liIac shrubs. on the east property line we would like to
have 100% screening, to accomplish this we will plant additional blue spruce trees as needed.
I In addition, we are proposing to widen the lower portion of the driveway to the required 24 feet. the
lower portion is defined as the beginning of the downhill slope to the bottom of the bill at the
I parking lot entrance. We would like to keep the initial portion of the driveway at its current width
to allow us to keep three mature trees.
Please distribute the enclosed package to Arden Hills Mayor and Council members. If you should
. have any questions or comments, please coutact me at 481-7025.
. Sincerely.
. Y-==.. ~~

Re: Parking lot Use at Fire Station #1 I
Dear l\Ir. Ringwald, -
The purpo~ ufthe nfW p:..trking lot~ lotated On the North E3.st c.orner of the Fire Department
property is primarily for overflow parking. Our Fire Dept. is. c.omprised of four stations and
approx. 70 Firefighters. Our Dept. holds a monthly meeting Mce a month, whit.b. rotates hetween I
stations 1,2, and 3. We also hold 5 training Sessions t:l. month, that also rotates as previously stated.
During the month there is also Officer.'!. meetings, Engineers meetings, and various committee
meeting.5. .Also Two months a year. ,qtation 1 i:-; u:icd for FireFighter" 1&2C1a_'i.~s(Rookic &:hoot)
which totals 12 classes. The Firefighter 1&2 clas~es are generaII)' very-large and requires alot of I
parking 'paces. The Fire DCpl_ also teachc, classes for groop' like lhe YMCA on CPR.
Be-cause of the: siLe of out Fire Dept. and the Various ru:ti...itic_~ that \'tC are iavoh'c.d in the
parking lot is a ne,es.sity, we have used that space for pa.rking for the last 30 years, we are now I

TO: City of Arden Hills. ..
FROM: Bernard Brouillette.
SUBJECT: Owners request for variance at 3320 Lake Johanna Blvd.
The follOWing is'a conditions report needed to comply with I
the City of Arden Hills request for information that will be
presented at a variance hearing. I
The width of the lot is 56'.
The width of the house is 33'.
The distance from the north side of the house to the property I
line is 11'.
The distance from the south side of the house to the property
line is 12'. I
The distance from the front of the house to the street is 83'8'.
the distance from the back of the house to the lake is 52'.
The existing garage was removed by the previous owner prior to I
our purchasing this residence.The location of the proposed
building site is on the top and side of a steep slope,which was
the site of the old garage The reason we are building in the I
front of the house is because there isn,t enough room along
either side of the house (See above highlighted) and that the
distance between the house and the lake does not allow enough
room to meet with setback regulations.The reason we are asking ..
for a variance to allow us to build the garage with a 20' setback
from the"street as opposed to the 40' is because there would
already be a flat surface available to build on under alarge I
portion of the new garage,and we would not have to remove the
existing 26 concrete steps going down to the house from the
street,which are our front and only acess stairs. the other and
probably biggest reason for not having the garage further from I
the road is that the house and a portion of the front yard are 26
steps down below the road,which would make trying to drive up or
dO'Nn in anything other than dry conditions very difficult if not I
impossible.Also building any further back would mean reffioving two
beautiful old tree's one pine and one oak.
The city request of 5' and 15' from side property lines will be I
met with the proposed structure size of 24' by 30', which will
equal 720 sq. feet. ,
Also the 20' setback will still allow for a 20'deep parking apron I
9t the front of the garage,which will allow off'street parking
for my family and freinds.Additional details are available on the
supplied site plan. I

VARIANCE APPLICATION FOR 1550 EDGEWATER ..
WRITTEN STATEMENT OF NEED I
This is an application for a zoning variance to allow expansion of a single-car,
tuck-under garage into a two-car garage, In appearance, the expansion will essentially I
replace and improve upon an existing structure and wall of similar size and shape. The I
expansion will be made possible through excavation along the existing foundation wall.
The existing single-car garage is an 9bvious problem in an era when most Arden I
Hills families, ours included, own and drive 2-3 cars. In addition to added convenience I
and service, a two-car garage would also increase the value of our home, while raising
the value of the neighborhood by reducing driveway parking. I
Our home is one of only two on the block with a single-car garage. Allowing the ..
addition, ther'efore, would enhance the architectural harmony of the neighborhood. I
Because most of the proposed addition would be at or below the existing grade
of the neighboring land, there would be virtually no adverse aesthetic effect upon the I
neighboring property. The appearance of the altered property would be improved from I
the street view, and unchanged from the rear and side view.

Re Pl3llning C.se 96-15, Varianee for 1550 Edgewater Ave
I Dear Mr, Ringwald
.. This lcttct responds to your inquiry of August 12, 1996 concerning the
variance application which my wife and I have submitted to the City 10 allow :
th~ conS1ruction of a two-stall garage
I 10 youllF:lter you ask about (1) the necd for a variance from thc front
yard setback ordinanee and (2) the possibility of minimUing the need for a side !
I yard variance setbaclc by expandin2 the garage to Ihe west as well as to the
east
Regarding the front yard issue, you llfe correct in noting that our
1 expansion plans (which were submitted with our variance application) would
bring the ITont $\lrface of the garage to within 38.4 feet of the right-of-way,
which requires a variance in the amount of 1.6 feet. We offer the follov.ing
I justifications for that variance,
I The forward expansion is n=suy to provide sufficient length I
1 for the new portion oflhe garage, because the I-beam. which I
I
will be replacing the aisting rom or wall, carmot cUT)' the loa.d ,
for the entire length of the existing wall. The current pllUl calls I
I for removing approximately 15 reet of that W1III and adding .5.5

fed on the front of the garage, for a total length of
approximately 205 fed in the expanded portion of the g11rege
2 The forward expansion would not e"cud the length of a I
current overhang roof, which minimizes the visual impact 0 f the
expansion 1
3. The expansion project would include the removal of a wall and
structure design.iled as a "shed" on our survey, which itself I
e;;tends several feet closer to the right-of-way than the
proposed addition Hence, the net visual cff~ will be to
increase rather than to d=ease the actual sctback I
4 The fact that the proposed construction will occur beneath the
gnde of the adjacent property further rcduces any visual impact I
caused by tbe expansion
Regardmg the possibility of expanding the garage to the west as well ~ ..
to the ust, this is not practical {or the following reasons
J, The west wall of the garage is a concrete block, load-bearing
wall. Its removal would require additional I-beam support for I
the house, wrjch would mak. the enlire project financially
impractiC<ll.
2 The area in oW' home to the west of the existing garage walt is I
currently used as our fi"onl entry, a wall::d laundry room and a
walled bathroom. NOlle of those aru.s could tolerate I
dimWsh<<l size. Moreovet, any significan1 alteration of the
existing use of those areas would again cause the entire proj~t
to be fuuncially impractical I
Please let me know if the City or the Planning CommissioQer ha~e lUly
additional questions I do intend to be at tbe Planning Commission meC'ting or. 1
Wednesday, September 4, 1996 in ease .omethicg come. up at that time. Our
neighbors have all expressed support for this project and have indicated their
willingness to ""prns suppOrt at the meeting if necessary I would apprechte I
receiving YO\lr ad'<ic.e on this

IRe: Planning Case #96-15, Thomas & Jean
Fabel Side Yard Setback Variance
Dear Mr. Ringwald:
I Since we will be out of town on September 4th, we are writing in support of
the proposed Fabel's requested variance.
Our home is on the property just to the east of the Fabel's and probably would
~ be the one most directly affected by this variance. We have looked at the
...., plans for the Fabel's proposed remodeling of their one car garage into a two-
car garage ~nd what it would do to the lots.
I we believe the Fabel's addition of a second garage would not only be
beneficial for them but would also have some small positive impact on property
values in the neighborhood, including our own.
I We see no disadvantages to granting this variance and encourage the planning
committee to do so.
I Sincerely, ,
, , I'

. REQUEST FOR MODIFICA nON
Arden Hills Gateway Center Project
Gateway Business District
I City of Arden Hills, Minnesota
I September 30, 1996
I 1) Procedural Setting
I The Zoning Ordinance of the City of Arden Hills, Section V(K)(l) "Procedure", states as
follows:
I "The prescribed procedure may be modified by the City to allow
planning flexibility and to encourage cooperative dialogue between
the applicant and the City,"
I This request for modification is being presented to the City Council of the City of Arden
Hills in the context of a request for comprehensive site plan approval, which approval
.. has been recommended (subject to certain enumerated conditions) unanimously by the
Planning Commission. The modification requested is in connection with sub-section
(3)(a) of Section V(K), which states as follows:
I "Office uses ocoupying not less than 25% nor mOre than 50% of
a project's total floor area,"
I 2) Design and Bud~etlPlanninl' Commission Approval
I As noted elsewhere in the materials in connection with the request of the developer,
Oakdale Development Corporation, a Minnesota corporation, for comprehensive site
plan and development approval for the Arden Hills Gateway Center, the projecred
facility will cost approximately $7,000,000.
I Oakdale Development Corporation ("ODC") has made genuine effort to honor and give
sigr.ificant weight to the design, configuration, landscaping and other key provisions of
I the Gateway Business District Special Requirements, In fact, in addition to the upgraded
and attractive finishes, design, access and landscaping presented to the Planning
Commission, ODC has provided an additional approximately $100,000.00 in exterior
I upgrades to both the facade of the building as well as the landscaping and visual
presentation to surrounding properties and streets. In other words, ODC suggests that
the proposed building is an unusually attractive building for its product type,
I officelwarehouse, and has been designed and planned with sensitivity to the impor;ance
not only of the Gateway Business District and its zoning provisions, but also to the
" history of the area,

3) Rationale
a) The District. There are approximately five to seven total parcels available for
development in the Gateway Business District, at this time totaling
approximately 60.3 acres of undeveloped property. I
b) The Proiect. The subject project, the Arden Hills Gateway Center, is a 154.000
square foot Office/Warehouse property planned for the most northerly I
undeveloped parcel within the District comprised of approximately 11.4 acres,
c) Institutional Investor Advantages and Requirements, The subject project, and I
other projects which are currently proposed for future development by ODC
within the District will likely be the recipient of significant institutional
investment from national or regional insurance companies, pension funds. or I
other money centers. It has been and continues to be our experience that when
major business parks attract institutional investment, the development process is
accelerated, the quality of the developments constructed is high, and the on.
going maintenance and care for the area as well as for the individual facilities is I
assured over the long term,
Great difficulties arise, however, in the context of the literal application of sub- I
section (3)(a) to each and every project within the District. In fact, the rigid
application to each project will limit the investment of institutional funds, and
may prohibit many of the product types which will be considered most desirable ..
within the park, other than what the industry terms "officeltech" projects,
We expect our initial tenants in the Arden Hills Gateway Center to require I
generally an 18%-22% office build-out, based upon the proposals currentl\
outstanding, which include, among others:
1) An advanced proposal to Arden Architectural, a tenant of approximately I
16,000 square feet which will require 3,200 square feet of off,ce sFace;
and I
2) A proposal to The Trane Company, for approximately 89,000 squo,e
feet, of which 68.5% would be built-out as office space; and I
3) Several additional proposals and prospects for office/warehouse or
manufacturing uses running generally about 15% office build-out. I
d) Flexibility for the Future. Specifically, ODC is requesting a modification for
this first project because the developer, the investors (including our proposed I
institutional investor) and any future owners will and must have the flexibility
going out into the future to restructure the interior of the building to
accommodate additional replacement tenants as the years go on. The builcing
will obviously maintain throughout its life its high level of design integrit:, and I
ODC suspects that it might always be within the general parameters of ofi',e
build-out proportion. although it may and probably will frequently fall bekw the ..

strict guidelines of the ordinance by virtue of its location within the park. and by
,. virtue of the layout of the parcel upon which it is constructed.
Our concern and that of our institutional investor arises primarily in the context
of future leasing and occupancy of the project. In the event replacement tenants.
I even though in compliance with the District's use restrictions. require less than
prescribed office build-out (or even virtually no office space at all) the effect of
which would be to oraw office occupancy in the building below prescribed
I levels, these "precious" tenants (precious to the building owner and the City)
would be prohibited from moving into the project (and perhaps into Arden
Hills), In fact, what makes this situation entirely too problematic for the
I investors is the possibility that the City would not grant building perm its and
occupancy permits for these replacement tenants, paralyzing active leasing and
gutting the viability, feasibility and survival of the property, even though the
I prospective tenants would comply with the intent of the zoning ordinance for the
District as regards use. We would experience functional obsolescence in a
relatively new building.
I e) Difficultv as Applied to the District. Another aspect of the need for
modification of sub-section 3(a) is the obvious undesired outcome which would
I result from its strict application to the most southerly parcel in the District. The
highest and best use for that parcel would obviously be 100% office in a mid-
rise or high-rise configuration. That kind of project would be prohibited under
Ie the provision cited, In fact, if the provision were simply applied generally to the
entire business district, with a total area of approximately 60 acres (2,613,600
square feet of land, discounted to 85% for the provision of additional roads and
I infrastructure, leaving a total developable land area of2,221 ,560 square feet),
which would then, in turn, permit a total density under the zoning code of 30%,
or 666,468 square feet of buildings, the total office presence in the entire district
would be limited to 333,000 square feet. which would virtually prohibit a major
I corporate headquarters development in the southerly part of the District,
f) The Commencement and Further Development of the District. Most
I importantly, and in addition to the policy issues and difficulties noted abo\'e, this
is in fact the first major project since the passage of the subject zoning
provisions within the Gateway Business District. It is a major project. will
I house a significant number of good paying jobs, costs in excess of $7,000.000,
and provides, among other things, an appropriate density (given the Traffic
Study noted elsewhere) of office and warehouse. First and foremost, it provides
I a significant 'jump start" for the entire Gateway Business District.
It has been our feeling all along that as the District development parcels lie
I c loser and closer to the Highway 694 corridor, the uses become "higher and
better", and will demonstrate increased office and commercial presence, We
expect and hope to build subsequent phases, and we expect and hope that the-
I increased tax revenues made available from this first project \vill assist the City
in the upgrading as necessary of3rd Avenue, as well as 14th Street, will permit
tt the clearance of such properties as may be deemed appropriate for clearance and

re-development, and could help fund the possible upgrading of the intersection
of3rd Avenue with Hwy, 96 to the north. ..
4) Ongoing Assurance and Compliance.
You have ODC's assurance of its intention to follow the provisions of sub-section (4) of I
Section V(K) in regard to Prohibited Uses, We understand clearly that such items as
open sales, vehicular sales, truck tenninals, outside storage, bulk storage buildings, yards
and tennina!s, and noxious manufacturing are not pennitted, among other things. We I
are not requesting the ability to introduce prohibited uses, but, rather, to have the
flexibility over the life of the project to noibe required to cDmply rigidly with the
requirements of sub-section (3)(a) regarding percentage of office build-out. I
5) The Request.
ODC therefore requests (and will find it-difficult to proceed with the project under I
current circumstances without) a modification of this requirement. Ifa specific
percentage must still be applied to the project, we request that it be no more than 8%
office build-out, although, what we are unambiguously requesting is a waiver of that I
provision as it applies to the project, provided the project is designed and built in
accordance with the strict requirements of the zoning ordinance, the instructions of the
Planning Commission, and according in all respects to the detailed design requirements I
of City staff and the City Council.
