Extract of Minutes of Meeting
of City Council
City of Arden Hills
Ramsey County, Minnesota
March lO, 1986
Pursuant to due call and notice thereof, a regular meeting
of the City Council of the City of Arden Hills, Minnesota, was
duly held at the City Hall in said City on Monday, March lO,
1986, commencing at 7:30 o'clock p.m.
The following members of the Council were present: Mayor
Woodburn and Council members Sather, Peck, Hicks and Hansen.
i Also in attendance were Clerk-Administrator McNiesh,
Deputy Clerk Zehm, City Treasurer Lamb, City Attorney Lynden, and
Public Works Supervisor Raddatz.
Attorney Lynden advised the Council that the fee and
beneficial owners of
the property
to be
subdivided as
"NORTHWOODS" --i, e. , George J. Reiling and Opus Corporation
respectively--had submitted to the City a Petition, dated
January 20, 1986, wherein they requested that the City install
sanitary sewer, storm sewer, water and street improvements in
connection with the NORTHWOODS subdivision and that the City
prepare a feasibility report in which the estimated cost and
design of the foregoing improvements would be reported. He
pointed out that the last sentence of the Petition contained a
condition that was unacceptable to the City--i.e., a public
hearing be held to discuss the conclusions in the feasibility
report.
He recommended that the Council adopt the following
Resolution which contains two conditions--i.e., that there be no
public hearing in connection with this proceeding and that the
City Engineer not proceed to prepare the feasibility report until
the petitioners have executed a development agreement.
.
After limited discussion, Councilman Hicks introduced and
moved the adoption of the following Resolution:
RESOLUTION NO. 86-15
RESOLUTION ACCEPTING PETITION AND
ORDERING PREPARATION OF FEASIBILITY REPORT
FOR IMPROVEMENT NO. SS-W-P-ST 86-l
NORTHWOODS
WHEREAS, OPUS CORPORATION and GEORGE J. REILING (the
"Owners"), the owners of that certain tract of land lying south
of Interstate Highway No. 694, north of Red Fox Road, and 515
feet west of the centerline of Lexington Avenue North, which they
propose to subdivide into a subdivision to be known as
"NORTHWOODS", have by Petition dated January 20, 1986 requested
the City to install sanitary sewer, storm sewer, water, street
and other improvements (the "Improvements") in connection with
the plat of NORTHWOODS, and
WHEREAS, the Petition erroneously stated that a public
hearing would be held after the feasibility report had been
prepared, and
WHEREAS, after the feasibility report is prepared, the
Owners may decide to do the Improvements themselves rather than
having the City do them in a Chapter 429 proceeding, and
.
WHEREAS, a public hearing is unnecessary because the
Owners own lOO% of the property to be subdivided as NORTHWOODS,
and
- 2 -
WHEREAS, the City is disinclined to direct its City
Engineer to prepare the feasibility report under the circum-
. stances unless the Owners execute a development agreement in
which they agree to compensate the City for all costs incurred in
connection with the Improvement up to the point at which the
Owners decide to do the Improvement themselves,
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE
CITY OF ARDEN HILLS, MINNESOTA THAT:
1. The Petition be declared to have been signed by
the requisite percentage (i.e., 100%) of owners
of the property affected by the Improvement as
required by Section 429.035 of Minnesota
Statutes, as amended, and
2. The petition be referred to the City Engineer
who is hereby instructed and directed to
prepare an analysis and report as to whether
the Improvement is feasible and should be made
as proposed or in connection with some other
improvement and what the estimated cost of the
Improvement will be, such report to the Council
to be prepared with all convenient speed--
subject, however, to the Owners' first
executing a development agreement and advising
the City in a letter, signed by both of them,
that a public hearing on the feasibility report
will be unnecessary.
The motion for the adoption of the foregoing Resolution
was duly seconded by Councilman Peck and, upon vote being taken
thereon, all of the Council members voted in favor thereof,
whereupon said Resolution was declared duly passed and adopted.
