A letter from the ZA to Witzel Electric and the response letter are attached. Also attached are the minutes from the August meeting where the appeal was heard. The appeal was "...tabled pending action by Mr. Witzel to abate the nuisance." Mr. Witzel installed a small extension to the hood on one of the lights. However, the complainant did not see a difference in the glare. Mr. Witzel was made aware that this hood extension had not solved the problem. No further action has been taken by Mr. Witzel since then. A few months ago, Mr. Witzel left a voicemail message for the ZA stating that there had been an auto theft from the parking lot. He is also asserting that the responding officer was in support of his lighting to deter crime. Attached is the written opinion of another officer who examined the area at night. COST AND SOURCE(S) OF FUNDING: N/A REQUESTED ACTION: Motion to uphold or overturn the action of the Zoning Administrator.

Sgt. Giese went to the business at night. He thought that the light was NOT too bright. He could not tell how it would be shining directly into anyone's residence. He compared the lighting to that of a normal street light. The way he described it was "ambient lighting." That was just his opinion, and obviously this is not necessarily a police issue, but let me know if you would like any further assistance from us. Thanx Pat Lieutenant Patrick Aldrich Centennial Lakes Police Department 54 North Road Circle Pines, MN 55014 Office (763) 784-2501 Desk (763) 235-2564 paldrich@clpdmn.com Serving with Courage and Compassion. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: FW: Message from 6129614596 From: Mark Statz <MStatz@centervillemn.com> Date: Mon, October 21, 2019 1:54 pm To: "'paldrich@clpdmn.com'" <paldrich@clpdmn.com> Pat, We should chat about this situation (listen to the attached voicemail). This is the th business/building owner at 7129 20 year now to swap out his light fixtures or add a shield to them to eliminate the glare for the neighbors. We understand that security is an issue in this area, but think there is a way to light the area, without lighting the neighbors. Let me know your thoughts. Thanks. 1 From: Cisco Unity Connection Messaging System <unityconnection@uc.metro- inet.us> Sent: Monday, October 21, 2019 1:42 PM To: mark.statz@uc.metro-inet.us Subject: Message from 6129614596 2 CITY OF CENTERVILLEREQUEST FOR ACTION Agenda Item # Department: RequestedMeetingDate: March 10, 2020 Planning VI.2 TITLE OF ISSUE: On/Off Street Parking BACKGROUND AND SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION: At the last Planning and Zoning Commission meeting, the issue of on/off street parking was reviewed, especially as it relates to certain situations in the downtown area, as we prepare for the reconstruction of the streets in that area. Attached are some sketch layouts of various parking arrangements for a business in downtown. Our attorney has given an opinion related to the status of a business or homeowner's parking arrangement as a legal non-conformity. In summary, he asserts that parking facilities on private property may be somewhat protected by the legal non-conformity status, but parking facilities that extend into the city's right-of-way would not be afforded those same protections, nor would the location or size of an access to the road. The city has the right and duty to control its right-of-way and access to it for the health, safety, and wellfare of the public. COST AND SOURCE(S) OF FUNDING: N/A REQUESTED ACTION: Direct staff on whether or not certain changes or clarifications to the existing city code should be explored related to on/off street parking.
