He noted the Planning Commission at their regular February 1, 2006 meeting unanimously
recommended approval of the minor subdivision subject to six conditions as noted in staffs
February 6, 2006 report.
Councilmembcr Grant stated because only two of the lots were new, the park dcdication fee
should not count against the cxisting lot and he would be in favor of collecting a park dedication
. fee on the two new lots only. He noted the Planning Commission did not have the latitude to
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - February 13, 2006

change the park dedication fee, so the wording of the recommendation had to be six percent
However, there had been a discussion at the Planning Commission meeting regarding Council .

new lots.

He indicated at the regular Planning Commission meeting on February I, 2006, the Planning
Commission voted 6-1 to recommend approval of the special use permit amendment subject to
nine conditions as noted in staff's February 6, 2006 report.
Councilmcmbcr Holden asked if they were going to do a parking assessment every month, what
would happen in May if parking was not sufficicnt. Mr. Lehnhoff responded if they did not
have sufficient parking, additional parking would need to be added.
Councilmember Grant asked if the manufacturer of the air handling equipment offered any
quieter units. Charles Patterson, Celestica, responded he had contacted the manufacturer about
this issue and they were researching it. He indicated there was a possibility of changing the fans
to get the noise down, but at this time he did not have the decibel figures.
Councilmember Grant asked if it was their intent to have the quieter blades. Mr. Patterson
responded if this was a major problem, they would add the quieter blades. He stated right now
he had asked the manufacturer to look into the quieter blades.
Mayor Aplikowski asked if this became a noise problem and they received complaints, would
they be willing to comc back and discuss this. Mr. Patterson responded they would.
Councilmember Pellegrin asked what the maximum sound level would be. Mr. Patterson
responded the numbers staff gave the Council would he the maximum sound level.
Councilmember Holden askcd if this unit would be operating continually. Mr. Patterson
replied the unit did not run continually and would cycle on and off. He noted at the current time
Celestica was not a 24-hour operation.
Mayor Aplikowski asked why the unit was being placed where proposed. Mr. Patterson
responded the units wcre being placed there because of the mechanics on the inside of the
building.
Councilmember Holden stated she had concerns about approving something that was close to
MPCA regulations and the fact that this was in thc parking lot and people would be walking to
and from the building right next to this unit.
Councilmember Pellegrin stated he also had concerns and noted he was familiar with air
handling units and they were loud. Mr. Patterson stated they did not anticipate the unit would
be running at 100 percent capacity all of the time and the unit would cycle on and off based on
demand. He indicated he did not have infonnation as to how often the unit would cycle on and
off, but he did not bclieve the unit would be on for long periods oftime.
MOTION: Mayor Aplikowski moved and Councilmember Pellegrin seconded a
motion to approve Planning Case 06-003, Celestica, 4300 Round Lake
Road, SUP Amendment subject to the nine conditions as noted in staff's
February 6, 2006 report.
ARDEN HILLS CITY COUNCIL - February 13, 2006

,
Councilmember Holden asked if they could require a condition that would include a noise plan. .
Mr. Lehnhoff responded they could rcvise condition 6 to say: The applicant shall be required to
install noise mitigation measures if the City receives complaints regarding noisc gcnerated by the
unit and the complaints are validated by City Staff for the decibels levels not to exceed 73
dccibels, at 30 feet from the unit.
MOTION: Mayor Aplikowski moved and Councilmember Grant seconded a motion
to approve thc amendment to Condition 6. The motion carried
unanimously (4-0)
The original motion carried (3- 1 Councilmember Holden opposed).
F. Plannin!! Case #06-004: St. Paul Lod!!c #2 I.O.O.F. (Odd Fellows), 1174 Edl!ewater
Avenue North - Minor Subdivision and Consolidation
Mr. Lehnhoff stated the applicants own a 1.54 acre property at 1174 Edgewater Avenue North.
On March 8, 2005, the City Council approved an amendment (Case 05-03) to the Lodge's
original Special Usc Permit #70-36. The amcndment allowed thc Lodge to reduce the size of
thcir parking lot with the intent of selling three lots on the eastern edge of the property. The
amendmcnt was approved with scvcn conditions. Condition three is the reason for this minor
subdivision and consolidation application. Lots I, 2, and 3 are all non-conforming in the R-2
Zone with slightly less than 5,000 square feet each. However, when combined, the three lots
meet the minimum requircmcnts of the R-2 Zone. In order to eliminate the potential of
developmcnt on each of the three individual, non-conforming lots, the City has required the
applicant to consolidate the three lots into one conforming lot. This applicant seeks to complete
condition three of PI arming Casc 05-03.
.
Hc noted at the regular Planning Commission meeting of February I, 2006, the Commission
voted unanimously to recommend approval ofthe minor subdivision and consolidation subject to
five conditions as noted in stairs February 6, 2006 report.
Couucilmember Grant stated it seemed wrong to him to base the value of these parcels on the
value of land that has a substantial amount of lakefront considering these parcels did not have
lakefront. He stated hc was in favor of basing the value on surrounding lots of similar size. He
indicated he was in support of staffs calculation of $4,896.00 for the park dedication fee and he
would not be in favor of waiving the park dedication fee in this case because this was a
requirement of other applicants and he did not see the reason to totally waive the park dedication
fee.
Councilmembers Holden and Pellegrin agreed with Councilmember Grant's recommendation.
H. R. Pogue, Treasurer, St. Paul Lodge #2, 1.0.0.F., stated he had written up his memo at
staffs direction. He noted he had forgotten to add in an added expense of putting in a concrete
curb in thc new parking lot and put landscaping around that are, which would be another $5,000 - .

$6,000 expense. Hc asked why they needed a survey. Ms. Barton responded anytime a variance
request came in or a request to plat lots, they needed a survey to ensure they had the correct
property lines on file and to see what was located on the property. In this case, it was actually
creating one new lot out of thrcc lots, so the legal description of the propcrty would need to be
changed as well.
Mayor Aplikowski stated she believes the buyer should pay the park dedication fee. Mr. Pogue
responded he did not realize this and he would talk with the intcrested buyer.
MOTION: Councilmember Holden moved and Councilmember Pellegrin seconded a
motion to approve Planning Casc 06-004, St. Paul Lodge #2 LO.O.F. (Odd
Fellows), 1174 Edgewater Avenue North, Minor Subdivision and
Consolidation, subject to the five conditions in staffs February 6, 2006
report an1ending condition 2 for applicant to pay a park dedication fee of
$4,896.00 allowing thc payments to be paid in installments of 1/3 to be
paid at the time of filing and 2/3 to be paid within 18 months. The motion
carried unanimously (4-0).

PCI/5 Year CIP Discussion
City Administrator Miehelle Wolfe provided the City Council with an overview of the PCI
ratings, Ii n station bids, and water tower discussion for the work session. Originally, City staff
had anticipated discussing the five year CIP plan at this meeting. After Finance Dircctor
Murtuza Siddiqui completed a detailed analysis of the financial impacts on the City with the
proposed five year capital improvcmcnt plan it was determined that the proposed plan was not
financially feasible [or the City at this time. Therefore, City staff will continue to work on
drafting a CIP that is financiall y feasible for the City and will bring it back to the City Council
lor further discussion at a future work session meeting.
Operations and Maintenance Director Tom Moore provided the City Council with an historical
overview of the PCI process. From July 11th to July 25Lh, 2005, Good Pointe Technologies
conducted a PCI rating analysis o[ the City's streets. A copy of the final report was sent to the
Operations and Maintenance Director and URS Engineering. URS compiled the PCI data and
created a spread sheet with a historical overview of the PCI ratings [or the different streets in
Arden Hills. City staff will use the PCI information in aiding its decision making process
regarding future Pavement Management Projects (PMP).
Councilmember Holden asked if the PCI study was completed in a similar fashion to what URS
has done in past years.
URS Engineer Greg Brown stated that that the PCI ratings were couducted in a similar manner.

City Administrator Michelle Wolfe noted that the URS compared three years worth of data and
created a list ofrecommend PMP projects for the future. The proposed projects would be subject
to available funding.
.
City Administrator Wolfe also mcntioned that there arc software programs available that conduct
financial analysis on proposed projects.
Councilmember Holden asked what arc thc standards that the City should follow when
recommending seal coating, ovcrlays, and/or street reconstnlction improvements.
Mr. Greg Brown said that there are many different thoughts on what the standards should be and
that it may be good for the City to reevaluatc its philosophy regarding road repairs.
City Administrator Wolfe said that the city may have to take a step back and review its
philosophy regarding street improvements or repairs. This may be necessary to determine future
improvement priorities for the City.
Councilmembcr Holden asked if City staff has a list 0 r streets that have poor soil or sub-grade
bases.
URS Engineer Greg Brown said that City staff has an idea which areas have poor soils and sub-
grades, but soil borings are still necessary to determine the soil make-up underneath the street.
.
Councilmember Grant asked if City staff was seeking City Council approval of the PCI ratings.
City Administrator Wolfe said that City staff would just like to discuss the PCI process at this
time and answer any questions that the City Council may have on this topic.
City Administrator Wolfe said that it is hcr understanding that the goal of the City should be to
focus its efforts on mill and overlays and try to protcct the City's streets before they become a
reconstmction candidate.
Councilmember Larson stated that the City should focus its efforts on reconstnlcting City streets
that werc properly constructed and have the necessary sub-base.
City Administrator Wolfe suggested that the City examine a common sense approach where each
strcct is reviewed on its own merits.
Councilmember Grant asked what the cost would bc for the proposed 10 year CIP.
Finance Director Murtuza Siddqui said that the projected cost would bc roughly $10 million
dollars.
Mayor Aplikowski asked if the City bonded for these projects what would the effect be on the .
City.

Financc Director Siddiqui said that the City would need to have cash on hand to borrow money
for the future.
City Administrator W olfc noted that currently the City only rcceives 50% back from the property
owners for assessments and there is currently no dedicated revenue source for the utility funds.
Mayor Aplikowski said that the City may have to evaluate other funding mechanisms in the
future in order to find the necessary revenue needed to cover the increasing cost for street
improvemcnts.
Councilmember Holden rcquestcd that City staff provide the City Council with the overall cost
for each project
Councilmember Larson asked if City staff is seeking permission from the City Council to rework
the existing CIP plan.
City Administrator Wolfe said that City staff will reevaluate the financial aspect of our current
CIP projects in order to detennine what projects are obtainable with our current financial
situation.
Councilmember Larson said that he is not opposed to discussing the bonding option for street
improvements, but he believes that the Ridgewood Neighborhood project should proceed as
planned for 2006.
City Administrator Wolfe said that City staff is not comfortable at this time to make a project
recommendation to the City CounciL The plans and specifications for this project were recently
approved, but changes can be made in the future.
Councilmember Holdcn agrecd that the Ridgewood Neighborhood should proceed as planned,
but she thinks that the residents are more concerned about water quality and storm water run-off
then the condition of the streets.
Councilmember Grant said that he doesn't believe that the City should consider bonding for
street improvements.
City Administrator Wolle said that City staff will provide the City Council with options to
consider in the future regarding funding mcchanisms for street projects.
Mayor Aplikowski requested that City Councilmembers keep an open mind to the different
funding mechanisms that are available to the City for street improvcments.
2006 Lift Station Proiect-Bid Results
Operations and Maintenance Director Tom Moore provided the City Council with an overview
of the bids for refurbishing four lift stations. The projected project cost for the four lift stations
City Council Work Session Meeting
January 23,2006

is $655,000. At this timc, City staff is recommending that the City not proceed with refurbishing
four lift stations. City staff will need additional time to evaluate the proposals and review budget
consideration for replacing two lift stations.
.
City Administrator Michelle Wolfe also noted that City staff needs time to evaluate the financial
risk to the City if the lift stations are not refurbished at this time.
Mr. Tom Moore noted that the remaining four lift stations are considered low volume flow
stations.
City Administrator Wolfe said that it may be bencficial for the City to hold off on this project
and bid all four lift stations again in two years.
URS Engineer Greg Brown slated on economy of scale, each of the four remaining sites are very
similar in sizc and topography.
Councilmember Larson suggested that City staff request that the low bidder extend its offer for a
pcriod oftime.
City staff will seek an cxtcnsion of the bid proposal and continue researching the risks to the City
if the lift stations arc not refurbished at this timc.
'Vater Tower Rcpair Report
Opcrations and Maintenancc Dircctor Tom Moore statcd that the City is not required to complete
any major repairs on the water tower at this time. A number of the minor recommended repairs
can be completed in-housc. The water tower report states that 110 major repairs are expected for
thc current two-three year time frame.
.
Councilmember Grant requested that City staff handle the grading, fcncing, and over flow pipe
grading rcpairs in-house.
Councilmember Larson suggested that a 10 foot high fence not be installed around the water
tower.
Councilmember Holden asked if the water tower vcnt should be replaced at this time.
Operations and Maintenance Director Tom Moore said that he is not comfortable with having
O&M staff mcmhers complete the vent installation and will have the City's engineering team
research the possibility of having an outside vendor complete the repair and installation.
Councilmember Holden suggested that the City bill the cell phone company for causing the
corrosion damage to the water tower. It may be a possibility for the City to recoup some of these
costs.
City staff will look into this possibility further.

I-35W Corridor Coalition Discussion
City Administrator Wolfe noted that during thc 2006 budget discussion, City Council discussed
the possibility ofre-joining the I-35W Corridor Coalition. It was noted that the Coalition spent
2005 redefining its purpose and scope of work. As a rcsult of that effort, the fces have been
reduced for member cities in 2006. The proposed cost for the City of Arden Hills to join the
coalition in 2006 is $5,340.00. If thcre is a consensus amongst thc City Councilmember's, this
item will be placed on a future City Council mccting agenda for formal action.
Councilmcmbcr Holden askcd how long the I-35W Corridor Coalition has been in existence.
Mayor Aplikowski noted that the organization has been in existence for approximately ten years.
City Administrator Wolfe statcd the I-35W Conidor Coalition has also been involved with the
creation of a GIS database, Housing Rcsource Center, and transportation studies for the
communities within the coni dOL
Mayor Aplikowski said that originally the I-35W Task Force was created to share technology
and discuss different developmcnt opportunities amongst the neighboring communities.
Eventually the group turned into a lobbying organization for the I-35W members. The focus of
the group has expanded somewhat to includc thc Cities of Blaine, Circle Pines, and Lexington.
She is concerned that the City will not be a part of the regional transportation discussion if they
arc not mcmbers of thc I-35W coalition. It is important that we be involved in regional
transportation discussions affccting the City of Arden Hills.
Councilmember Larson stated that wc Iivc in a much larger community then Arden Hills, and the
issues regarding the I-35W Conidor Coalition affect a number of diffcrent communities and it is
important that the City has a seat at the table to discuss these issues and represent the needs of
thc community.
Councilmember Grant said that the TCAAP property will determine whether or not the City is a
major player at these meetings.
Mayor Aplikowski disagreed with Councilmembcr's Grant statement and said that the City is
currcntly an important player due to its location. The City must have a place at this table to
express its concerns regarding 35W.
Councilmember Larson requested that this item not be brought to a City Council meeting for
further action until there is a consensus amongst the group.
Mayor Aplikiowski requested a ten minutc recess. (7:10 PM)
Fee Schedule: False Alarm Fees
The meeting was called to order at 7:20 PM.

Assistant to the City Administrator Schawn Johnson provided the City Council with an over
view of the statistical information rcgarding false alalllis. City staff conducted an overview of
the false alarm fees that are currently being charged by different communitics throughout the
metropolitan area. City staff also compiled a spread sheet with a breakdown of the 2005 fire call
log for the City of Arden Hills. In 2005, the City of Arden Hills had 252 fire calls.
Approximately 102 fire calls werc deemed false alanns by the Lake Johanna Firc Department.

whether or not a false alarm call was intentional. Each year, the Lake Johanna Fire Department
budgets for 30 false alarnlS per contract city.
Membcrs of the City Council recommended that City staff work with the Lake Johanna Fire
Department to create criteria for determining whether or not a false alarm is intentional.
Also, City staff will work with the Lake Johanna Fire Department and Ramsey County Sheriffs
Department contract Cities to discuss the different fee schedules and how to create a unified false
alarm policy for the member cities.

Councilmember Larson said that he feels a letter should be sent to the residents of Arden Hills
explaining the fraud case. He believes that it is good for the residents to know that the City is
protecting its assets and that insurance money is available to cover some of the loss.
Councilmember Holden suggested that the Ramsey County attorney rcview this letter before it is
sent out to the public.
City Administrator Wolfe stated that a Ramsey County trial attorney has not yet been assigned to
this case. Also, the City is a part of a trust fund through the League of Minnesota Cities that is
used to offset loses that are due to embezzlement.
Mayor Aplikowski asked if this letter should be inserted into the newsletter.
Councilmember Larson said that he is comfortable with having thc letter inserted into the
newsletter.
COlmcilmcmbcr Grant requestcd that thc letter bc rcvicwcd by a Ramsey County attorncy.
Councilmcmber Larson stated that he would send out a pcrsonnel Icttcr to the residcnts, if the
City Council is not willing to scnd out a letter at this time.
City Administrator Wolfc said that thc City's communication consultant rccommcnded that this
information be placed on the City's wcb page.
Councilmcmber Larson said that media consultants arc about damagc control. It is not surprising
that the consultant would rccommend not sending out a mass letter to the residents.
Councilmcmbcr Wolfe will havc a member of the Ramsey County Attorney's Office review the
proposed letter.
Councilmember Holdcn recommended that the following changes bc made to thc letter:
. Bullet points bc removed;
. "Un-paid leave" be added to the fourth paragraph of the second sentencc;
. The word "alleged" be added to the first sentence of the seventh paragraph.

TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council Members
Michelle Wolfe, City Administrator
FROM:
Schawn Johnson, Assistant to the City Administrator
SUBJECT:
Proposed Revisions to Peddlers, Solicitors, and Transient Merchants
Ordinance #360
-Revising Section 340 of the City Code
Backl!round
At the May 31, 2005 City Council meeting, City Council adopted a new Peddler, Solicitor, and
Transient Merchant Ordinance. Overall, the new ordinance has succeeded in more clearly
defining the application process and the City's regulations regarding the selling or distribution of
goods, services, advertisement, and political literature_ During the past six months, City staff has
successfully implemented the new ordinance and application materials into the City's permitting .
process. Over the past six months. City staff has noticed that a few minor changes may be
necessary to make the existing ordinance more conducive to the organizations that acquire a
peddler, solicitor, and transient merchant permit on a regular basis_
In December, City staff received a peddler, solicitor, and transient merchant permit request from
a local Girl Scout troop_ The City's existing ordinance requires the Girl Scout Troop to submit a
roster with the names and addresses of all the troop members to the City_ City staff did not
believe that this information was necessary and therefore consulted with the City Attorney to
review potential language that could be inserted into the ordinance to minimize the information
requirements for.exempt organizations.
In February, City staff noticed that a peddler was selling frozen shrimp along the Highway 10
right-of-way (near the TCAAP site). City staff requested that the peddler leave the site and
obtain the proper permit from the City. After reviewing the City's existing ordinance, City
Attorney Filla recommended that the definition of a peddler be redefined in the ordinance in
order to ensure that peddlers selling goods and services in this manner are covered under the
City's peddler, solicitor, and transient merchant ordinance_
The recommended changes have been reviewed by the City Attorney and he is comfortable with
the changes that City staff is proposing to the Peddler, Solicitor, and Transient Merchant
Ordinance_

FROM: James Lehnhoff, City Planner
SUBJECT: PC #06-002
Gary Findell
1401 Skiles Lane
Minor Subdivision & Variauce
Backl!round
Please refcr to the City Council report from February 13, 2006, for full background information
regarding Mr. Findell's request for a Minor Subdivision and Variance at 1401 Skiles Lane.
Update
.
On February 1,2006, the Planning Commission voted to recommend denial ofMr. Findell's
minor subdivision and variance request. Mr. Findell has submitted additional information to
encourage the City Council to vote to approve his request. However, if the City Council prefers,
the new material can be remanded back to the Planning Commission for further review.
Unfortunately, there was only time for a quick review of Mr. Findell's submittal before the
Council meeting. However, Mr. Findell is correct in that ifthe existing dwelling were moved to
a conforming location, a variance would not be needed and the proposed subdivision would meet
all technical requirements ofthe R-1 Zone and the subdivision ordinance.
Ifthe variance is denied, Mr. Findell has indicated that he would move forward to have the
existing dwelling relocated into a conforming position. Furthermore, he would request the City
Council to table the current minor subdivision application and remand it back to the Planning
Commission for review without the variance request.
Unfortunately, variances are rarely clear cut issues. When reviewing a variance related to a
subdivision, a City typically looks for a hardship related to the land and not the structures on the
land. In Mr. Findell's case, the variance and perceived hardship is related to the structure.
Ideally, a subdivision would only create a conforming lot with conforming structures. While the
minor subdivision would result in a conforming lot, the variance request would increase the non-

.
conformity of the dwelling. It is open to interpretation if a hardship to allow the existing
structure to remain within the side setback exists since the dwelling can be moved into a
conforrning location. However, moving the dwelling would certainly result in the loss of several
mature trecs. The Planning Commission found that a hardship did not exist.
The City can deny a subdivision application ifit is deterrnined that the subdivision would harm
the public welfare; however, it would be difficult make findings that this subdivision proposal
would harrn the public welfare since it meets or exceeds all provisions of the R-l Zone and the
subdivision ordinance. Although more review may bc needed ofMr. Findell's assertions, a
cursory review of the information he submitted related to lot dimensions in the neighborhood
does indicate that the size of his proposed lots would not be unique or obtrusive in the
neighborhood.
Planninl! Commission Recommendatiou
At their February 1,2006, meeting, the Planning Commission reviewed Planning Case #06-001
and voted unanimously to recommend denial of the variance based on the following findings of
fact:
I. The hardship may be considered an inconvenience. Since it is possible for the dwelling
to be moved and thereby meet all setbacks, a hardship does not exist. The applicant has
indicated that it is possible to move the structure without adding significant cost. If the
structure is moved, the need for a variance would be eliminated.
2. The conditions are not entirely unique to this property. It is not unique topographical, lot
size, or lot dimensions that are making the variance necessary. Although the property
does have a number of mature trees that add to the value and character of the
neighborhood, there is sufficient space on the proposed western property to place a
conforrning structure. While the mature trees may pre-date the currently landowner,
meaning he or she did not create the perceived hardship, the Ordinance does not clearly
state that protecting trees meets the hardship requirements of a variance.
3. Granting the variance would be detrimental to the public welfare and would detract from
the character of the neighborhood.
Subsequently, the Planning Commission voted 6-1 to recommend denial of the minor
subdivision based on the following findings of fact:
I. The non-conforrnity of the existing structure on the property would increase if the
subdivision were approved. The current structure does not meet the required 40 foot
front setback. The subdivision would increase the non-conformity of the structure by
allowing the structure to encroach on the setback of the proposed new lot line.
2. The subdivision would result in two properties that would be detrimental to the public
welfare and would not be consistent with the character of the neighborhood.

City Council Direction
Denying the Minor Subdivision and Variance
.
If the Council votes to uphold the Planning Commission recommendation and deny the
variance and/or minor subdivision, the reasoning can be based on the findings from the
Planning Commission. However, instead of denying both applications, Mr. Findell has
requested that the application be remanded back to the Planning Commission for review
of the subdivision without the variance.
Approving the Minor Subdivision but Denying the Variance
If the Council votes to approve the minor subdivisiou but deny the variance, the
findings may be based upon the original findings from Staff that supported approving the
minor subdivision and the findings from the Planning Commission that supported
denying the variance. If the minor subdivision is approved without the variance, Staff
recommends the following seven conditions:
I. The applicant shall file the minor subdivision with Ramsey County Revenue
and Records and shall provide the City with a recorded copy within sixty days
of the final approval date.
2. The applicant shall provide a 12 foot drainage and utility easement on the
street right-of-way and a 12 foot drainage and utility easement centered on
common lot lines.
3. The applicant shall pay a park dedication fee as determined by the City .
Council.
4. The structure on the western lot shall be moved to a location that meets all
required setbacks of the R-1 Zone, including the front lot setback of 40 feet
from the right-of-way.
5. The structure on the western lot shall be moved into a location that meets all
required setbacks beforc any building permits are issued for any new
structures on either lot except for any permits needed to move the structure
into a confonning location.
6. Any extension of City services for the new lot shall be subject to approval by
the City Engineer and all associated costs shall be the responsibility of the
applicant.
7. The applicant shall comply with applicable provisions of the City Code and
related ordinances.
Approving the Minor Subdivision and the Variance
If thc City Council determines that a hardship exists and votcs to approve the variance
with the minor subdivision, findings that support approving the variance should be stated
and based on the following criteria:
1. The hardship is not a mere inconvenience;
II.Metro"inel.uslardenhills\PlanningIPlanning Cases\2006\06-002 Findell minor subdivision and variance (PEND/NG)\022206 CC Reporl-
Filldeli Minor Subdivi~.i(Jn & variance. doc
Page 3015
.
.
2. The coudition or conditions upon which the request is based are unique and
not gencrally applicable to other property;
3. The granting of a variance will not be substantially detrimental to the public
welfare and is in accord with the purpose and intent of this chapter, the zoning
ordinance and comprehensive plan.
.
If the City Council votes to approve both the minor subdivision aud variauce, Staff
recommends the following nine conditions:
I. The applicant shall file the minor subdivision with Ramsey County Revenue
and Records and shall provide the City with a recorded copy within sixty days
ofthe final approval date.
2. The applicant shall file the 21 foot drainage and utility easement with the
Ramsey County and shall provide the City with a recorded copy within sixty
days of the final approval date. The restrictive easemcnt may be incorporated
with the deed for the land or submitted as a separate recordablc document and
is subject to approval by the City Attorney.
3. The portion of the existing structure that is designated for removal on the
submitted survey shall be removed beforc any ncw building permits are issucd
for any structures on either lot except for any permits needed to remove the
required portion of the existing dwelling.
4. Any additions to the existing dwelling on the western lot shall meet all
setback requirements.
5. Any new structures on thc wcstem lot shall not be any closer than 21 feet to
the western lot line to preserve a total of25 feet of side lot setback as required
in the R-I Zone.
6. If the cxisting dwelling is removed for any purpose in the future, the new
dwelling shall meet all required setbacks and Condition Five shall be voided.
7. The trees between the wcstern lot line and the existing dwelling shall not be
removed without approval of the City Council. If the trees are determined by
the City to be dead or dying, the trees may be removed and shall be replaced
in accordance with the Design Requirement of the Landscape Plan provisions
of Appendix A, Procedural Manual, of the City of Ardcn Hills Zoning
Ordinance.
8. The applicant shall pay a park dedication fee as dctcrmincd by the City
Council.
9. Any extension of City services for the new lot shall be subject to approval by
the City Engineer and all associated costs shall be the responsibility of the
applicant.
10. The applicant shall comply with applicable provisions of the City Code and
related ordinances.
The variance cannot be approved without thc minor subdivision being approved.
The application can be remanded back to the Planning Commission for further review.

Park Dedication
If the minor subdivision is approved, the park dedication requirement would apply. Should a fee .
be accepted in lieu of a land dedication, the park dedication fee would be six percent ofthe land
value of the property at the time of final approval of the subdivision. The 2006 land market
value according to Ramscy County records is $ 1 64,300. This value would result in a park
dedication fee of$9,858 for the entire property. The "new" eastern lot is approximately 48.8
percent of the property. Therefore, should the City Council choose to exempt the developed
property from the park dedication fee, the adjusted park dedication fee would be $4,808.
Deadline for Al!encv Actions
The City of Arden Hills received the completed application for this request on December 30,
2005. Pursuant to Minnesota State Statute, the City must act on this request by February 28,
2006 (60 days), unless the city provides thc petitioner with writtcn reasons for an additional 60
day review period. The City may with the petitioners' consent extend the review period beyond
the l20 days.
Options
1. Rccommend approval of the minor subdivision and/or variance as submitted.
2. Recommend approval of the minor subdivision and/or variance with conditions.
3. Remand the application back to the Planning Commission for further review.
4. Recommend denial with reasons for dcnial. If the City denics the petitioners request, "... it
must state in writing the reasons for the denial at the time it denies the request."
5. Table for additional information.
.
Approving the variance is contingent upon approval ofthe minor subdivision.

February 20,2006
Mr. James Lenhoff
Planner, City of Arden Hills
Arden Hills, MN
Dear Mr. Lenhoff,
We respectfully request that the Arden Hills City Council review and approve a Minor
Subdivision and Variance request tor 140 I Skiles Lane. The application for the minor
subdivision and variance was brought before the Planning Commission on February 1,
2006 and the Commission voted to recommend denying the request. We teel the
Planning Commission erred in their recommendation because they did not have all of the
information they needed to make an informed decision regarding our request. We bear
much of the responsibility for that. Had we provided the Commission the same
information we are providing now, they may have reached a different conclusion. Our
reasons for feeling the Commission erred in their recommendation are laid out below.
We recognize that this is an unusual request and that we are asking a lot ofthe Council to
approve our application. If the Council is not willing to approve our application, we
request that the matter be tabled by the Council and be referred back to the Planning
Commission. If this happens, we will be modifying our request and will request only a
Minor Subdivision. In this event, the entire house will be moved to the east side of the
lot so that all setback requirements are met. We believe that this option, while feasible,
will have a greater impact on the property for us and for the neighborhood than the option
ofleaving the house where it is with a variance.
In hind site, while we sent a letter describing our plans, we should have consulted our
neighbors in person before coming to the Commission with our plans. We both work full
time and have two small children and we just ran out of time. We talked to neighbors
after the hearing and will be talking to them betore the City Council meeting on the 27th.
and hope to have their support for our plans.
(Note - "neighborhood" and "subdivision" are used interchangeably below to describe
the area bounded by houses on Arden Place, Glenarden Road, Glenarden Court and the
east side of Old Snelling.)
A. Minor Subdivision and Variance request description.
Page 1 of 6 - 140 I Skiles Lane

I'
..
We own the property at 140 I Skiles Lane. We bought the property at the end of
November, 2005 and love the neighborhood, the location and the lot. The lot is covered
with oak trees and a number of other varieties of trees. We bought the house because of
the character of the neighborhood, the proximity to Lake Johanna and because of all of
the trees on the lot. The neighborhood is similar to the neighborhoods where we both
grew up in the western suburbs.
. Minor Subdivision request - The zoning in this area is R-l, with a
minimum lot width of95' and a minimum lot area of approximately 14,500 sq. ft.
The current lot is 195' x approximately 182' with an existing house that is mostly
on the west 100' of the lot. The area of the current lot is 35,527 sq. ft. We would
like to subdivide the lot and create one vacant lot (on the east side) that is 95' x
182' (17,280 sq. ft. or .4 acres) and a second lot with the existing house that is
100' x 182 (18,237 sq. ft. or.42 acres) on the west side of the lot. Both of these
lots will meet all of the zoning requirements for an R -I zone. Our plans are to
rehab the existing house and sell it and build a new 1 Y, story house for our family
on the new east lot. Both homes will be designed in a style and character to be
consistent with the existing housing in the neighborhood.
. Variance request - The easternmost portion of the existing house
straddles what will be the new property line. We plan to remove the portion of
the existing house (approximately 250 sq. ft.) that straddles what will be the new
property line. This will be relatively easy because the part of the house that will
be removed is a living room that is a 14' x 18' rectangle that extends out from the
main body of the house. To "make up" for the loss of the 250 sq. ft. we will be
adding on approximately 600 sq. ft. to the existing house, primarily by finishing
off the rear 20' of the existing four-car garage and enclosing an area between the
garage and the house. The house currently covers only about 13.7% ofthe 18,237
sq. ft. on which it would sit after the subdivision is complete. Currently, the
house is one of the smaller houses on the block (about 1,900 sq. ft. living area)
and we would like to make it about 2,250 sq. ft. and finish a portion of the
basement to make it habitable.
The new east side of the existing house will be approximately 3.9' from the new
property line. We are requesting a sideyard setback variance of 6.1' since we do
not meet the 10' sideyard setback requirement for the R-l zone. By doing the
above, we end up with two legal size lots and will need the one variance for the
sideyard setback. We will also be able to preserve all of the trees (of which there
are many) on the west side of the property and all but 3 or 4 trees on the east side
of the lot. (See prelim. site plan)
If the variance request is not approved, we will move the existing house to the east side of
the property and build a new house on the western portion of the lot (both of which
would be entirely within the required setbacks) so that no variances will be required.
Again, we feel that this is not the best option for the lot. The best option for the lot, the
neighborhood and for us is to be granted the variance so we can leave the house and most
of the trees in place.

B. Rebuttal of Planning Commission's reasons for recommending denial
Among the reasons given by the Planning Commission for recommending denial of the
variance was that the variance would create a non-conforming use of the property. This
would not have been true. The variance would have created a non-conforming building,
not a non-conforming use. The reality is that there are a number of buildings in the area
and in particular on Skiles Lane that would be considered non-conforming because they
do not meet all of the setback or minimum lot width zoning ordinance requirements. A
nurnber ofthe houses would likely not meet the 10/25' sideyard setback requirements of
the R-l zone.
The Planning Commission recommended denial of the Minor Subdivision request
because they said the new lots would be incompatible and not in conformance with the
existing development patterns in the neighborhood. The summary below of the existing
neighborhood patterns indicates that this is not accurate.
Five issues were discussed at the hearing related to development pattems and the
character of the existing neighborhood - they were lot size, lot width, building spacing,
building massing and landscaping/trees.
I. Lot Size - As noted in the planning staff report, the average lot size in the
subdivision is .43 acres. There are 75 lots with houses on them in the
neighborhood (not including the smaller lots along Cnty Rd. E or along the NW
corner of Old Snelling). A summary of the lots in the subdivision shows that 39
(52%) of the lots are smaller than.41 acres and 36 (48%) ofthe lots are larger
than .41 acres. Minimurn lot size per the R-l zoning classification is
approximately .33 acres. After the minor subdivision, the average size of our lot
will be .41 acres. This is .03 acres less than the average for the neighborhood but
is larger than at least 52% of the lots in the subdivision. (See attached drawing I,
taken from the Ramsey county property records.)
2. Lot Width - Minimurn lot width requirement in the R-l zone is 95'. After the
minor subdivision, one lot will be 95' wide and the second lot will be 100' wide.
The average lot width in the neighborhood is a little less than 90'. In the
neighborhood, 44 (59%) ofthe lots are less than 95' wide and 31 (41 %) of the lots
are greater than 95' wide. On Skiles Lane, 5 ofthe lots are less than 95' wide and
5 of the lots are greater than 95' wide. (See attached drawing I)
On the south side of Skiles, there are two 80' lots, one 95' lot (approx. as it is on a
curve) and two 120' lots. On the north side of Skiles there is one 75' wide lot,
one 85' wide lot, one 107' wide lot (actual width is closer to 100' as it is on a
curve) and two 120' wide lots.
3. Building Spacing - The development pattern as it relates to building spacing
after the minor subdivision will be very similar to the pattern on the rest of the
block and in the rest of the neighborhood. In fact, the houses on the two new lots
will be further apart from each other and from the hOllses to their east and west
than most of the other houses on the block. The existing house will remain about
68' (combined sideyards of the two houses) away from the existing house to the
Page 3 of 6 -1401 Skiles Lane
.
west and will be about 50' away from the existing house to the east. The existing
house will be about 30' away from the new house to the east.
Drawing 2 shows the current layout of lots on the block with approximate
locations of structures. Red dots indicate sideyards where the houses are closer
together than the average sideyards ofthe subdivided lots. Blue dots indicate
sideyards where the houses are further apart than the average sideyards of the
subdivided lots. There are 41 (63%) houses closer together than the subdivided
lots and adjacent houses and 24 (37%) houses further apart.
Drawing 4 shows the spacing of the new houses. The new subdivided houses will
be further apart from each other and from the houses to the east and west than any
of the other houses on Skiles, except for the area between 1370 and 1386 Skiles.
In summary, the spacing of the houses on the new subdivided lots between each
other and between adjacent houses will be greater than the spacing of the majority
of houses in the rest of the neighborhood.
4. Building Massing - In the neighborhood, there is a mix of 1 story rambler style
homes and 1 Y2 or 2 story homes. The rambler style is the more prevalent of the
two, but some ofthem are being converted to I Y2 or 2 story homes (1385 Forest
Lane for example). The new home built on the newly created lot will be similar
to the house shown on Drawing 6 though it will have a garage attached to the west
(left) side. The house will be 1 Y2 stories (the 2nd story footprint will be
significantly smaller than the I" floor footprint) and will meet all ofthe required
setbacks.
5. Landscaping/Trees - The issue of the existing trees on the property and the
desire to preserve them was probably the item most discussed by neighbors at the
Planning Commission hearing on February 1. A number of neighbors commented
on how much they enjoyed the large trees and how they would like to see them
preserved. One of the things that most attracted us to the neighborhood was the
number of large trees in the neighborhood and particularly on this lot. I am a
landscape architect, and was particularly attracted to the mix of fairly mature oak,
pine and maple trees. It was our desire to preserve as many of these trees as
possible that originally led us to seek a variance that would allow the existing
house to remain where it is
~
C. Reasons for City Council to approve the Subdivision and the
Variance
Ie
Regarding the subdivision request, as noted in the Plan Evaluation (findings of fact)
section ofthe Planning staff report, the proposed subdivision plan meets all of the
requirements (with the exception of the setback requirement just to the east of the
existing building) of Section 1150.04 of the City Code for subdivision of previously
platted property.
As shown above, the size and width of the new lots will be very close to the average lot
size and width in the subdivision - the lot width will be slightly larger than average and
the lot size will be slightly less than average. Also as shown above, the spacing and
Page 4 of6 - 1401 Skiles Lane
.
massing ofthe renovated existing home and the new home will be consistent with
existing homes on Skiles and throughout the neighborhood.
Item 2 in the Plan Evaluation (findings of fact) section in the planning staff report is not
quite accurate, the existing building (after the portion is removed) will not encroach on
the new property line, but rather will encroach into the 10' sideyard setback.
Regarding the Variance request, we feel the variance request should be granted for the
reasons below. Section 1150.01 of the City Code regarding variances in subdivisions
lays out three conditions that must exist.
1. The hardship must not be a mere inconvenience
2. The condition(s) upon which the request is based are unique and not generally
applicable to another property.
3. The granting of the variance will not be substantially detrimental to the public
welfare and is in accord with the purpose and intent of this chapter, the zoning
ordinance and comprehensive plan.
. Regarding Item 1, the hardship is not a mere inconvenience. The
hardship is more of a hardship for the site than for us. Financially, we
would be better off either moving the house or tearing it down and
building two new houses. We do not want to do either of those things
because we feel that would disturb the site too much and result in the
removal of many of the trees from the site. Granting the variance
allows us to renovate the existing house without removing any of the
trees on the west II, of the lot. The variance also allows us room to
build a house on the east side 'of the lot and remove only 3-4 trees.
(See site plan) We feel the character of the neighborhood will stay
better preserved by leaving the house and granting the variance than
by moving the house or by tearing it down. The value of the lots will
be higher if the trees remain. Trees have a proven monetary value in
real estate and cutting them down would reduce the value of the
property.
. Regarding Item 2, there are very few, if any, properties in the
neighborhood that are wide enough to create two legal lots and that
have an existing house that is almost entirely on one side of the
original, larger parcel. There are three or four lots in the neighborhood
as wide as 1401 Skiles, but they all have houses close to the center of
the lot. By removing the small portion of the house that would have
encroached on the property line, we actually have the opportunity to
improve the desirability and marketability of the house. This is a
condition that is not generally applicable to any other property in the
neighborhood and is likely not applicable to many properties in the
city.
. Regarding Item 3, we feel that granting the variance will not be
detrimental to the public welfare and is in accord with the city code,
the zoning ordinance and the comprehensive plan. In fact, we feel that
leaving the house mostly where it is and granting the variance is a
~

.
I'
.
positive for the public welfare when compared with the two other
options available to us. The variance allows us to leave the house
mostly where it is and save most of the trees on the site. Furthermore,
there are a number of houses in the area and particularly on Skiles that
are non-conforming, including the two across the street that are on 80'
wide lots and two lots to the west, one of which is 75' wide and one of
which is 85' wide. Drawing 1 also indicates (though house locations
and sizes are not exact) that there are likely a number of houses on
Skiles and elsewhere in the neighborhood that do not meet the
sideyard setback requirements.
D. Summary
We appreciate the City Council taking the time to consider this matter and recognize that
we are asking for a lot in requesting that the Council grant the Minor Subdivision and
Variance request. We do so because the variance is the option that offers the best use of
the property for us, protects the maximurn number of trees on the lot and preserves the
character ofthe neighborhood while meeting every other subdivision ordinance of the
city. We anticipate that the request would be granted contingent on the removal ofthe
eastern portion of the house. We are ready to apply for a permit and start that work
immediately and would it removed within 30 days.
We understand if the Council is not willing to grant us the Minor Subdivision and
Variance and in such case request that the Council table the issue and refer it back to the
Planning Commission. We are ready to apply for a building permit to move the house
such that both lots would meet all setback requirements ifthe variance is not granted.
With the permit in hand, we will go back to the Planning Commission and request a
Minor Subdivision with no variances.
Thank you for your consideration,
Gary Findell

2006 Lift Station Proiect
Budgeted Amount: $560.000.00
Actual Amount: $34.817.85
Funding Source: Sanitary Sewer Fund
Council Action Request:
Reject Bids for the 2006 Lift Station Reconstruction Project.
Staff Recommendation:
Based upon the projected Sanitary Sewer Fund balance. the immediate need to address inflow and
infiltration (1&1) and the possibility of acquiring SCADA, staff is recommending to delay the lift station
reconstruction project and reject the current bids.
Advisory Commission Action:

D Resolution (No. )
D Ordinance (No. )
[8J Englneering Recommendation:
If none of the lift stations are reconstructed at this time. the O&M department feels that the lift
stations will be able to be properly maintained. While it is difficult to acquire parts for these lift
stations due to their relative age. O&M has successfully managed to manufacture necessary
parts as needed. Another reason O&M feels the current lift stations can be maintained as,is for
the next few years is that these stations serve areas of low flows. While some of the failures that
have occurred in the past three to five years have triggered the alarm systems. the problems
were addressed and failures repaired prior to causing any sewer back,ups. In the case of Lift
Station #13, which was struck by lightning, the back,ups resulted from an error in the notification
procedure, causlng a delayed response time.
D Attorney Recommendation:
[8J Other:
Budget summary of engineering services to date, as provided by URS.
Financiallmplicalions:
$34,817.85 have been spent in engineering fees for design of the project. The plans for the project have
been completed, and should need little to no revision upon re-advertisement for bid. Rescheduling the
project will, however, result in some additional costs to re'advertise the project and obtain new bids.
Future bids are also anticipated to be higher than current blds, due to increasing construction and
manufacturer's costs.
