ATTACHMENT B April 17, 2023 Page 2 it is currently considering that will adopt Sacred Settlements, or a similar model, as a permanent form of housing. 2.Open House. As of April 14, 2023, Prince of Peace has submitted its application for an Open House that, if approved, will be held on May 21, 2023. The Open House will provide the City and its citizens an opportunity to see the Sacred Settlement in anticipation of a later application for an interim use permit. As of the date of this letter, the City has reviewed the application and requested additional information, which Prince of Peace is currently compiling for submittal to the City. 3.Interim Use Permit Application. By June 2, 2023, Prince of Peace intends to submit an application to the City for an interim use permit that will establish more specific terms on which Prince of Peace will continue to host the Sacred Settlement, for a specific period of time for study and determination of whether the City will adopt a permanent ordinance. Prince of Peace understands that the Roseville Code of Ordinances does not currently address uses similar to the Sacred Settlement and therefore the City can only approve the Sacred Settlement as an interim use pending development of an ordinance that does address the use. During the extension period Prince of Peace, with the cooperation and guidance of Settled, Incorporated, will work with the City to determine the terms of the Interim Ordinance, including the duration. The passage of proposed legislation may provide the City with a state wide standard to apply to the Sacred Settlement. 4.Prince of Peace Decision-Making. By October 1, 2023, Prince of Peace will complete its internal decision-making process to determine whether Prince of Peace wants to proceed in the long-term with a Sacred Settlement, a Cottage Home development that meets the current city code, or some other alternative. Prince of Peace is asking the City Council to allow Prince of Peace time to decide what direction Prince of Peace will take and develop a more complete proposal for longer term solution. Prince of Peace anticipates it will need until October 1, 2023 to make that decision. 5.Health and Safety Standards. As the City knows, the Sacred Settlement at Prince of Peace is modelled pending legislation, known as “Sacred Communities and Micro-Unit Dwellings,” sec. 57 of Senate File 1384, the Labor Policy Omnibus bill (attached), that will provide a statewide basis for approval of Sacred Settlements. Prince of Peace is current complying, or plans to comply, with those standards as follows: a.With respect to health and safety standards, Prince of Peace has already moved its initial resident from the uninsulated recreational vehicle in which she arrived into a “micro-unit” that meets Minnesota standards for a recreational vehicle (primarily road-safety standards) and most of the enhanced standards that Settled has proposed for the pending legislation. The standards that have already been incorporated in the Prince of Peace Sacred Settlement include certification that the micro-unit meets American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Code 119.5, which includes standards for heating, electrical systems, and fire and life safety, and the following additional standards: DB02/0762186.0037/10192766.1
