suggested that residents acquire stakes for their properties and place same prior to first snow falls. Tree trimming to the
3/10 standard remains a problem. Emeott also indicated he and Magnuson are currently working on a parking ordinance

the ongoing literacy project which Gem Lake gambling proceeds have funded for the last several years and Willow
Lane's plans for the future. She also addressed the many challenges faced by changing demographics including language

2005 Resident Updates
HILLARY FARM
The development of Hillary Farm is progressing. The
private road has been paved and the sanitary sewer installed
and tested. The Model Home on Lot # 17 is under construction
and should be available for viewing by next summer.
Meanwhile, the former Bemis barn is serving well as a sales
office.
Congratulations to Jim McNulty and his team for working
closely with our Planning Commission and engineers to create
what will be undoubtedly a very special development in Gem
Lake.
SCHEUNEMAN ROAD
As of August Is', Scheuneman Road from Otter Lake
Road to Highway 61 became a city street. With the addition of
Scheuneman Road to Tessier Road, Haven Lane, Big Fox
Road and Little Fox Lane, we doubled the total length of our
city streets. Gem Lake will now maintain, plow and sand the
road.
Following a series of public hearings that were well
attended by residents of Gem Lake, construction commenced
rebuilding the (Scheuneman) roadway, closing it's southern
access to Highway 61 and installing sanitary sewer along it's
entire length. Congratulations to Bel Air Contracting for
getting the paving put down just as the asphalt plants were
closing. A final lift of paving and repairs to driveways where
needed will be applied in late spring or early summer.
An assessment hearing will be held in June to discuss
repayment ofthe $586,000 bond which was required to pay for
the work.
SNOWPLOWING & WINTER PARKING
In 2005, the Gem Lake City Council selected T.A.
Schifsky & Sons as our snow plowing and street sanding
contractor. Streets will be plowed on an as needed basis this
winter as determined by Nate Jaus, Schifsky's plowing
supervisor. Make sure you let us know how we're doing this
year so we can improve the system as needed.
To help us keep costs down and avoid return trips by our
plows and drivers, please DO NOT PARK on City streets until
they have been plowed curb -to -curb.
For regular plowing concerns during daytime hours, call
the City Clerk or T.A. Schifsky's office at 651-777-1313. For
after hour and emergency needs, contact Nate Jaus at 651-775-
3451 .
COYOTES SIGHTED
We were notified in November that a pack of 5 or 6
coyotes has been spotted in several places in the northern half
of the City. Based upon sightings, we believe they may have
taken up residency in the northwest corner of the City.
Generally, coyotes are more afraid of us than we are of
them. If sighted, make loud noises and they will generally
"bug out". Care should be taken, small pets and children
should not be left unattended in the yard and call if concerned.
WINTER TREE TRIMMING
Please remember that all residents are asked to keep trees
trimmed along City streets so that a clear area ten (10') feet
high and three (Y) feet back from the curb is maintained. This
area is required to avoid costly damage to the snow plows,
sanding trucks and street sweepers as they work to keep our
streets plowed and sanded. Please check your boulevard and
make sure your trees have been trimmed as needed.
FREE GUN LOCKS
We still have a few remaining gun locks provided by the
Ramsey County Sheriff which are available to residents at no
charge. Contact the City Clerk for details.
DISASTER & HAZARD PLAN
Gem Lake has joined several northern suburbs and
appointed the Ramsey County office of hazard mitigation to
write a disaster and hazard mitigation plan which Gem Lake
will put in place in concert with Ramsey County. By joining
with the county and other suburbs, a consistent plan will be
developed and implemented for the benefit of the community.
RAMSEY COUNTY GIS LINK
Ever wonder who owns that property over there? The
Ramsey County website has a link to their GIS information
which is pretty user friendly and provides loads of public
information. You address for the Ramsey County website is:

"DES UPDATE
New rules are in place for pollution caused by storm water
run off that could affect you. Call the City Clerk for this
important information or check with www.pca.state.mn.us.

RE: NPDES Outreach Materials
Gentlemen & Mrs. Robins,
The enclosed CD was provided by the PCA for our use as we see fit. I believe our first obligation is to evaluate the information
and determine how to best use it in our community. As the presentation is in Power Point format, we can reproduce any part or all of
the presentation to develop materials for lake shore owners, all residents, etc. I believe the process should start with the Planning
Commission although input from the Council would be very useful.

Re: Gem Lake Planning Commission meeting, 2-1-05
++++++.... F i ....... H ++++-f ......... +�-F+-I ....++++++.
The Gem Lake Planning Commission met on Tuesday, February 1, 2005 in the first floor
meeting room of Tousley Ford. Members Jim Lindner, Kathy Robins, and Derek
Wippich were present. In the absence of chairman Hoeschler, Mr. Lindner served as
acting chair. Also present was John Lovelette, Mr. and Mrs. Kahl, Gretchen Artig-
Swomley, and Randy Ostebo. Gloria Tessier arrived later.
Before the Commission tonight were two scheduled public hearings. The first involved a
request for a 3 foot variance from the 25' maximum building height in the R3 zoning
district as stated in Ordinance 43 section 9.4 (1). Mr. and Mrs. Turnbull were unable to
attend tonight's meeting but they were represented by John Lovelette, division president
for Wayne Homes.
Mr. Lovelette explained how the finish grade of the proposed house was three feet over
l the 25' height limit. From the curb to the garage floor is two feet and the floor joists
J range between 12-14 inches brining the total to three feet. A 6:12 roof pitch is planned
for the house.
The primary conflict facing the Turnbulls is having a four bedroom house without
jeopardizing the 6:12 roof pitch makes the house three feet too high. A similar house in a
rambler style would run face issues due to the shape of the lot (which is on the radii of a
cul de sac. The total intended finished square footage is 2695 sq. ft. Mr. Lovelette
explained the two story house of this size is in the $80-85/sq. ft. range while a similar
size rambler is about $105/sq. ft. His company builds this same house in other cities and
variances are often necessary.
Pioneer Engineering addressed the ordinary high water level of the adjacent wetland and
assured the builder the house, if properly placed, would be at minimum two feet higher
than the water level.
The meeting was then opened to the public for comment. Mrs. Kahl acknowledged that
modern houses have steeper roof pitches and she wants this house built next to hers.
Gretchen Artig-Swomley recommended changing the zoning to allow for higher house
heights rather than grant a variance. Mr. Kahl asked if we could both grant a variance
and change the zoning to which we said we could indeed do so. Most agreed that this
shape lot demands this style of house.
Discussion then was among the Commission. Mr. Wippich recognized two
neighborhoods in Gem Lake. One neighborhood is less restricted by costs than the other.
He said 2695 sq. ft. is not extravagant. He calculated a rambler would cost 25% more
than a two story house. A split level house would not meet the needs of the height limit.
Mrs. Robins had no comment. Mr. Lindner asked if engineering requirements mandated
the house height. Mr. Lovelette answered that the house would be 28' whether the house
was near a wetland or not. Mr. Lindner then read from Ordinance 43 section 5.4
outlining the specifics of granting variances.
The primary reason a variance is warranted pertains to zoning ordinance language
identifying the unique topographic and water conditions of the lot shape which makes a
rambler style house unfit for this setting. A rambler would encroach on lot setbacks and
by nature would push the main house back and hence closer to the wetland.
We discussed the merits of not granting the variance and changing the zoning to allow for
increased height limits. The commission agreed that this is a sensible thing to consider
and will in fact request that the city clerk publish notice for a public hearing at the March
Planning Commission meeting. We concur that height limits should remain at 25" in R4
and at 35' in R1, but that R2 and R3 represent a transition where greater building heights
is logical. While there are very few if any undeveloped lots in these areas, there is the
possibility that current houses may be torn down for rebuilding. Consequently it makes
sense to modernize the zoning ordinance to meet current building requirements.
Mr. Wippich then made a motion to allow for the variance. Mr. Lindner seconded. The
motion carried 3-0. Mr. Lindner then explained the matter would be brought before the
City Council on February 28 with a recommendation for approval from the Planning
Commission. We agreed that the variance was warranted but we intend to review the
ordinance and work to change the height requirements for future construction projects.
Our next order of business was a public hearing concerning a request for a variance from
Ordinance 43 15.15 (1) a, which limits businesses to one primary sign. Randy Ostebo
represented his company, People's Plumbing and HVAC. He occupies the portion of
Waldoch's strip mall formerly occupied by the wood molding company. Mr. Ostebo has
one sign over the entrance to his office that faces County Road E. He wishes to add a
second sign of identical dimensions (4'X12') on the west side of his shop. This would
face Highway 61. His main purpose is to have sign exposure to traffic on each of the
primary roads in the area. Much of his business is from people driving past his shop and
seeing the signs. He primarily does residential work.
His company is eighty years old and he bought it five years ago. He was formerly
located on Otter Lake Road and in White Bear Lake. Mr. Ostebo drew a diagram of his
building as it relates to the main roads on the white board. His claim to hardship is the
unique shape of his building that does not lend itself well to one primary sign.
J
The meeting was then opened to the public for comment. Gretchen Artig-Swomley
agreed the unique shape of the building warranted a variance. Gloria Tessier agreed that
this was a good business to have in Gem Lake.
Discussion then returned to the Planning Commission. Mr. Wippich and Mrs, Robins
agreed that the shape of the building was a hardship and that a second sign was necessary
for Peoples to maximize its business potential.
Mr. Wippich then made a motion to approve the variance so long as the proposed sign
was within its allowable size limit and was consistent with the current existing sign. Mrs.
Robins seconded the motion. The motion passed 3-0. Mr. Lindner then instructed Mr.
Ostebo to plan on attending the February 28 City Council meeting for final approval. He
recommended Mr. Ostebo bring with him handouts and be prepared to explain his
request, but that the Planning Commission would send forth a recommendation for
approval.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at 8:10PM. Our next scheduled
meeting is March 1, 2005.

Dear Mr. Magnuson:
Thank you for your letter dated February 6 inquiring about the Council's position regarding the
situation you describe. The city's participation in a life -cycle housing project by way of issuing
housing revenue bonds is consistent with regional housing goals and policy that call for the
judicious use of public financing tools to facilitate such housing opportunities.
The issues of covenants or conversion of rental units to cooperative ownership units are not
appropriately the concern of the Metropolitan Council as we are not party to this housing. The
situation appears more an issue for the communities and the private parties involved in the
development which may have benefited from the use of the public financing vehicle.
Regardless of whether the units remain rental in nature or are converted to an ownership model,
they will continue to provide a life -cycle housing option for residents of northern Ramsey
County and in doing so fulfill this local housing need and goal.
Please fe61 free to contact me at 651.602.1418 if you have any questions.

We would very much appreciate any contribution you can make. We look forward to continuing to
serve the Gem Lake community with dial -a -ride service, and we will continue to keep you
informed as to any changes in service in the immediate future. At this time, we do not anticipate
any loss of service.
Thank you.
