Little Canada, Minnesota 55117 Kathy, I have checked with our General Investigations Unit (GIU) regarding the status of Lincoln Pawn, who conduct business in the City of Little Canada. I have found that Lincoln Pawn is in good standing with our Office. GIU has described their working relationship with Lincoln Pawn as excellent. We would like to see Lincoln Pawn participate in the Automated Pawn System (APS). APS is an investigative and tracking database, which would allow us to search pawned items against those reported stolen. APS is maintained by the Minneapolis Police Department. Attached is a brief description of the program. If you need any other assistance, please let me know.

Automated Pawn SystemTM and APSTM arc Trade darks of Page 23 3A 2 Regulating Pawnbrokers Government has long recognized the unique opportunity that pawnbrokers and secondhand goods dealers provide the criminally inclined to dispose of stolen merchandise. Because of this, governments have invoked strong regulatory requirements wherever these businesses are licensed. With the advent of casino and charitable gambling in Minnesota, the Minneapolis /St. Paul metropolitan area has seen significant growth in both the pawn and secondhand goods industry. In Minneapolis alone there has been a 95% increase in reported pawn/secondhand transactions from 1990 to 1995. In 1995, Minneapolis had eight licensed pawn shops and 117 secondhand goods shops. In St. Paul there were 11 pawn and 124 secondhand goods shops. Due to this growth, and due to the growing cost of regulating this growth under their then current ordinances, a moratorium was placed on the issuance of additional pawn shop licenses in both Minneapolis and St. Paul. While this moratorium was in effect, Minneapolis crafted a new pawn ordinance and is now revising secondhand goods and precious metal dealers as well. With higher annual license fees and new billable transaction fees implemented by the ordinance, the full cost of regulating these businesses will be recovered for the first time The Pawn Detail Minneapolis has used a manual, paper based system to record and investigate pawn and secondhand transactions. Adequate in years gone by, this system is now too expensive to maintain and fails to effectively identify stolen property, or the criminals that may be responsible. In 1994, the cost of regulating Minneapolis pawn shops and secondhand dealers exceeded the license fees they paid by more than $90,000.00. Of the 45,000 items that were reported processed, only 160 were identified as stolen - 3/10 of 1 %. Faced with spiraling costs, poor results, and a steadily increasing workload, the need for a better way to regulate was obvious. Like most businesses, pawn shops and secondhand dealers are regulated to insure the health, safety, and well being of the public. More specifically, regulation serves to: • Identify and minimize illegal activity; • Verify compliance with applicable laws; and • Insure customers a wholesome, legitimate business environment. Automated Pawl Syste:UTM and APSTM are Trade Marks o Page 24 JSA 3 Working with St. Paul, Bloomington and surrounding agencies, we learned other regulators were experiencing similar high costs and low results. Circumstances seen as major contributors to these problems included: • The lack of automated records systems; • Insufficient staffing to insure compliance with reporting requirements; • Inability to share pawn transaction data between agencies; • Inability to share stolen property data between agencies except for serialized stolen items that meet NCIC entry standards • Inability to compare pawn transaction data with stolen property data within an agency or between agencies, except for stolen items with serial numbers that meet NCIC entry standards; • Inability to compare pawn transaction data with stolen property records at insurance companies; • Incomplete and/or inaccurate loss reports; and • Unreported losses. Clearly, effective regulation of pawn shops and secondhand dealers is a multi - jurisdictional problem that govemment, alone, cannot solve. Automated Pawn SystemTM Redefining investigation and regulation through strategic partnerships with community and industry. Through the development and implementation of the Automated Pawn SystemTM, it is the goal of the Minneapolis Police Department to: • Decrease and stabilize the cost of regulating pawn shops and secondhand dealers ; • Improve police service and effectiveness; • Promote information sharing; and • Impact associated crimes. These goals can be met through information sharing with other jurisdictions and strategic partnerships with block clubs, community organizations, the insurance industry, and pawn shops and secondhand dealers. Each plays a vital part in redefining how law enforcement can respond to property crimes more effectively.

Automated Pawn Systemr4 and APSTM are Trade Marks ow Page 26 5 Record, Report, and Recover. This is a joint initiative of community oriented policing and the insurance industry. Its goal is to increase the number and accuracy of property loss reports made to police, thus increasing the identification of stolen property in the Automated Pawn SystemTM. It encourages every citizen to record descriptions, model and serial numbers of all their property, report every loss whether insured or not, and to recover stolen items more frequently because of their efforts. While APSTM is a software program that captures required transaction data, its real value is in the amount and kinds of data it collects and how it will share that data with other jurisdictions for the first time, electronically. With this information, investigators will have the ability to develop suspect information and initiate focused investigations of "qualified" leads. A query such as "give me the name of anyone who has pawned more than four different televisions in the past 30 days" is a good example of how APSTM can help law enforcement impact property crimes. Finally, APSTM can allow non- government entities such as insurance companies to query its files for stolen property. This is part of the strategic partnership with the insurance industry and should dramatically increase the identification of stolen property with no expense to the investigating agency. For this to happen, we must make data describing the property in a regulated transaction from a licensed pawnbroker or secondhand goods dealer public data. This is being addressed at the 1996 legislature. For additional information about the Automated Pawn System" and how your department might benefit by being part of it, please contact: Lt.

Staff recommends approval of the CUP as requested, based on the information submitted by the applicant. cc: Kathy Glanzer Steve Westerhaus Patrick O'Brien Greg Schroeder Terry Maurer Page 32 4.J rcomatcle cute—ina— • -"'"nr MCC N 0• •••.: 4:r 2 1 1 1 i•\/ 44: (-CHAIN I' Fir or. t1441 4) 1 35 1 35 37 1 38 1 39 1 40 t • fl!jtk It. • !Ea CO‘leti. i I I I i i 4 11 I —armee— *Rios atto—I — • — di "I .1* i .L Friiitut4Ciiitt MWA I 1 ; HYD. \) 2, k3 1 ,•••-• villa WM 3/4T MC • , -- ' — •04,00-arasza_. / -:-:......,...,_ -L- 4 lit MAX.

Page 33 WELCOME TO NEW MEMBER ELECTION OF OFFICERS MINUTES CUP — CAR RENTAL BUSINESS — 2608 RICE STR. MINUTES OF THE REGULAR MEETING PLANNING COMMISSION LITTLE CANADA, MINNESOTA JANUARY 11, 2001 Pursuant to due call and notice thereof a regular meeting of the Planning Commission of Little Canada, Minnesota was held on the 11th day of January, 2001 in the Council Chambers of the City Center located at 515 Little Canada Road in said City. Chair John Keis called the meeting to order at 7:30 p.m. and the following members of the Planning Commission were present at roll call: PLANNING COMMISSION: Mr. Scott Barraclough Mr. Tom Duray Mr. John Keis Mr. Thomas Roycraft MEMBERS ABSENT: Mr. Dennis Carson Mr. Dan Knudsen ALSO PRESENT: Mr. Steve Grittman, City Planner Ms. Kathy Glanzer, Deputy Clerk The Commission welcomed Tom Roycraft as its newest member. It was the consensus of the Commission to delay the election of officers until the next meeting when a full Commission is present. There being no corrections to the December 14, 2000 Planning Commission minutes, those minutes stand approved as submitted. Jan O'Brien appeared before the Commission requesting approval of a Conditional Use Permit to operate a car rental facility at 2608 Rice Street. The Commission reviewed the recommendations of the City Planner, and it was pointed out to O'Brien that there would be a four car maximum for the number of rental vehicles that could be parked at the facility. O'Brien reported that the business would start out with ten cars. They will have four parking spots in the back of the property and two in the front. Page 34 MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 11, 2001 They are also making arrangements to park some of their vehicles at other business locations. Roycraft asked what the situation would be for after hours drop off of vehicles. O'Brien was not sure and suggested that if an after hours drop off was needed by the customer, those arrangements would be made. Roycraft asked if the business was a franchise. O'Brien stated that it was, and it was the first location for this franchise in the Twin Cities. She also hoped that they would be able to expand to other locations over the next few years. Duray asked about handicapped parking. The City Planner indicated that the handicapped parking is a building requirement and adequate handicapped spaces have been provided on site. Roycraft asked if the rental business was limited to passenger cars. O'Brien reported that they would be renting passenger cars, vans, SUV's, and pick -up trucks. The City Planner noted that the car rental business would have four parking spaces at the back of the property and two at the front. He indicated that rental cars cannot be stored at the front of the property. Those two spaces must be reserved for customer and employee parking. Roycraft asked about maintenance and cleaning of the vehicles. O'Brien indicated that they would not be doing maintenance or cleaning at this site. Roycraft suggested that any approval be subject to future review of the CUP. He noted that his concern was that the business would grow and numerous rental cars in the parking lot could become a problem. Keis pointed out that the issue would become one of code enforcement, and the City would have the authority to revoke the CUP. Duray asked about fencing the rental car parking area. The City Planner indicated that fencing is not needed given that the parking area is not adjacent to a public right -of -way or residential property. Mr. Barraclough recommended approval of the Conditional Use Permit to operate a car rental facility at 2608 Rice Street as requested by Patrick and Jane O'Brien subject to compliance with the recommendations of the City Planner as outlined in his report dated January 9, 2001, further clarifying that the business would be limited to four rental car at this location and these rental cars must be parked in the designated parking spots at the rear of the site. Page 35 MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 11, 2001 PLAN REVIEW, CUP, AND PROPERTY DIVISION — ST. JOHN'S CHURCH Motion seconded by Duray. Motion carried 4 — 0. Dave Heller, H2 Architects, appeared before the Commission requesting plan review, a Conditional Use Permit for off -site parking, and a property division for St. John's Church as relates to their construction of a new school facility as well as a new rectory. The Commission began with a review of the property division to create a new lot on the Savage Lane cul -de -sac. Father Fitzpatrick reported that the new lot would be created and a house constructed on the lot. This house would serve as the residence for the priest for the church. Father Fitzpatrick pointed out that the existing residence will be converted to all office area and meeting space. Keis asked if the lot would remain zoned Public. The City Planner indicated that the Public zoning allows for residential uses for people employed at the church. Therefore, the property division can occur and a new rectory constructed under the Public zoning. Should the church no longer need the house and would decide to sell it, the property would have to be rezoned to R -1. The property owner at 335 Savage Lane asked for more information on the property division. Father Fitzpatrick indicated that the lot would be 90 feet by 125 feet. A single- family style home and garage would be constructed on the lot and would serve as the home for the church priest. Access to the house would be via Savage Lane. Father Fitzpatrick indicated that as many trees as possible would remain on the lot. Traffic to and from the house would be limited and likely just that of the priest coming and going from his home. Duray asked if the lot met the City's minimum requirements. The City Planner indicated that the lot exceeds minimum requirements. Keis asked if there would be any issues with drainage for this lot. The City Planner pointed out that some grading of the lot would be necessary to construct the home. He felt that drainage issues were more related to the remainder of the St. John's proposal. Mr. Barraclough recommended approval of the property division proposed by St. John's Church for a lot at the end of Savage Lane subject to compliance with the recommendations of the City Planner and the City Engineer.

A count of existing parking stalls was conducted on Sunday December 31,2000. The counts are based on the actual number of cars parked. Whether the painted striping under the snow reflects this quantity of parking we won't know until spring. Although approximately 25 cars where counted an Little Canada Road, street parking is not included In the totals below. LOCATION: APPROXIMATE PARKING STALLS Existing parkin on site: Existing parking lot to north across Little Canada Road Existing parking lot to east across McMenemy Street Total— Existing Proposed parking on site: Existing parking lotto north across Little Canada Road Existing parking lot to east across McMenemy Street Total — Proposed 75 stalls 29 stalls 51 stalls 155 stalls 110 stalls 29 stalls 51 stalls 190 stalls Our calculations for off- street parldng requirements per the City Ordinance (903.050) are as follows: School: 1 space for each classroom (1:1 ratio) (903.050H6) 1 space for each 50 students (1:50 ratio) Church: 1 space for each 3 seats (1:3 ratio) (903.050118) School: 1 space for each classroom (1:1) 17 Classrooms = 17 Stalls 1 space for each 50 students +/ -150 = 3 Stalls (1:50) students Church: 1 space for each 3 seats (1:3) +/- 600 Seats = 200 Stalls Req'd Parking = 220 Stalls Although the proposed parking does not meet the required quantity of parking per the city ordlnance, we have increased the parking by 35 stalls from existing conditions in which the combined building square footage and functions remains relatively the same. For additional parking at peak times, the play fields Page 39 2,T :d 8b0b99LIS9:01 .4dn1331IH3ad 2H:WOad dSa :2T 5082 -2 -Hdf are accessible by a curb cut at the southwest comer of the parking lot. Also, the two functions, church and school, will rarely be in use at the same time, reducing the need to have parking that accomodates both functions at any one time. I Hope this helps. Please call with any questions or if you need anything further. Dave Heller H2 architecture, inc.

The parking CUP relates to a project which would remove the existing school building and replace it with a new, attached structure. The project would not significantly affect the capacity of the school or the church, but would result in a series of site plan changes, including access, circulation, and parking. The Church is also seeking approval of a simple subdivision to create a single family home lot from the main church and school property. The new parcel would gain access from Savage Lane, but would remain under the church's ownership and the current "P ", Public zoning. Analysis Joint/Off -Site Parking CUP The church conducted a review of parking needs during a recent church service, counting actual parking on and around the property. This count resulted in a total of 155 parked vehicles between the church's property (75 cars), the City lot east of McMenemy (51 cars) and the Church's shared lot north of Little Canada Road (29 cars). In addition, about 25 cars were parked on- street. The applicants calculate a City- required parking minimum of 220 stalls, based on both church and school requirements - 200 stalls for the church and 20 stalls for the school. The applicants are requesting that the City approve a joint parking arrangement since the Page 52 school and church have distinctly different usage times. The peak parking accumulation is during church services, particularly on weekends or evenings, during which times school is not in session. To accommodate the actual parking demand generated by the church itself, the applicants are seeking approval of a site plan which shows 110 parking spaces on site (an addition of 35 spaces over current capacity), plus the 80 spaces on the adjacent parking lots as mentioned above, a total of 190 spaces. This count includes 10 parallel spaces which would be located in an area of the parking lot reserved for buses. The applicants should verify that the bus parking and the additional ten parking stalls will not be needed at the same times. The applicants point out in their analysis that the new school will not change the site demand over the existing conditions, and that the recent count showed a total of 180 cars, including the on- street parking. The City engineer has reviewed the site plan for grading, drainage, and utility issues. Two issues would affect the layout of the parking plan, and will require additional design work. The first is handicapped parking availability. The plan shows two spaces in an existing lot west of the main church building. For a 190 space parking supply, state regulations require 6 handicapped spaces, at least one of which must be van accessible. Although only 110 of the spaces are located on the church /school property, the requisite number of handicapped spaces should be supplied to be accessible to this use. The off -site locations would not provide reasonable handicapped accessibility. The second design issue is that of the access points to Little Canada Road. The applicant notes that Ramsey County will approve access to this roadway. The proposed design is an improvement over the current condition. However, a single access along the west portion of the site should be more than adequate to accommodate the 27 spaces shown in that area. Subdivision The church is also seeking approval of a subdivision which would create a single family parcel in the southwest corner of the church property. This parcel would contain a new home serving as the church rectory. For mortgage purposes, the church desires a separate parcel identification, and the new home would have its access on the Savage Lane cul -de -sac which is located on an easement on church property. The new parcel would be 11,250 square feet in area and 90 feet in width, both dimensions exceeding the City's single family zoning standard. The church will retain the existing Public District zoning, in which living quarters for persons employed on the premises are permitted uses. Summary and Recommendation The Conditional Use Permit for off -site and joint use parking appears to be a reasonable plan, based on the information submitted supporting the 180 car demand. The issue would Page 53 be whether the count reflects a representative use of the property. The 190 spaces proposed in this application would be augmented by on- street parking in the case of overflow events. One option to consider would be the City's reservation of the right to require additional on -site parking which could be constructed if warranted due to regular overflow problems. There appears to be adequate room on the property to provide additional space. Staff recommends approval of the subdivision as submitted, and approval of the Conditional Use Permit with the following conditions: 1. Provision of the required handicapped parking on the church property, based on a supply of 190 parking spaces. 2. Redesign of the access drive on the westerly Little Canada Road frontage to one access point. 3. Compliance with the City Engineers' recommendations. 4. Reservation of the right to require additional on -site parking if the current parking supply is found to be insufficient, or overflow parking is found to have a negative effect on public safety. cc: Kathy Glanzer Greg Schroeder Steve Westerhaus Terry Maurer St. John's Church Page 54 owc.rc R. Green Co CONSULTING ENGINEERS January 5, 2001 File: 813240J -0240 Honorable Chairman and Planning Commission City of Little Canada 515 Little Canada Road East Little Canada, MN 55117 -1633 mpany RE: ST. JOHNS OF LITTLE CANADA PARISH CENTER AND SCHOOL ADDITION Dear Planning Commission Members: As requested, we have reviewed the submittal package for the St. Johns of Little Canada Parish Center and School Addition. The submittal documents were prepared by H2 Architecture and BKBM Engineers. Based upon our review and a meeting with Greg Schroeder, Public Works Director, we would offer the following comments. A. GRADING AND DRAINAGE 1. The plan has been submitted to the Ramsey - Washington Metro Watershed District. They have prepared a review letter dated December 27, 2000. There are a number of minor changes that they have asked for prior to final approval of the plans. A copy of that letter is attached. 2. The concept of using an infiltration ditch for storm drainage purposes seems to be somewhat in conflict with the operation of the site. For instance, anybody entering or exiting the new school building from the south entrance will immediately encounter a drainage swale right outside the door. Also, the baseball diamond is surrounded by the proposed infiltration ditch. This leaves very little room for any spectators to gather. 3. Flared end section #10 has the pipe leading directly to the southwest comer of the proposed new school. It appears that this line is intended for connection to building roof drains. The Watershed letter is silent on this particular drainage system. It appears that this drainage system will collect roof drainage and convey it directly into Savage Lake. We question whether this is permissible according to watershed rules. B. UTILITY IMPROVEMENTS 1. The existing school which is to be removed will need to have its sanitary sewer service terminated at the manhole located adjacent to McMenemy Street. The water service, which appears to come from the south end of the existing building, will need to be removed and shut off at the corporation cock. O:\PROJ \813240J \0240\Ltr 01 -05 -01 PingCom.doc Page 55 1326 Energy Park Drive • St. Paul, MI ;1/644-9446 toll free 888/368 -4389 Honorable Chairman and Planning Commission January 5, 2001 Page Two 2. The proposed school building will have sanitary sewer service extended from the same manhole which serviced the existing building. Water service is proposed by a 6 -inch water line with a 2 -inch domestic service tapped off of it near the northern end of the proposed building expansion. Both of these water services, the 6 -inch and the 2 -inch, are proposed to have valves located near the property line. These proposed utility services are acceptable to the City. 3. There are no new hydrant locations shown anywhere on the proposed plan. Also, we question whether the Fire Chief will require a fire lane around the perimeter of the building. The plan needs to be reviewed by the Fire Chief for the location and number of new fire hydrants and whether or not a fire lane will be required. C. SITE PLAN IMPROVEMENTS The site plan proposed improvements create a parking area along McMenemy Street in the location of the existing school. It is proposed to use the existing driveway near the church building on McMenemy Street and to create an additional access approximately 340 feet further to the south. There are no designated handicap parking stalls for this new parking lot. We question whether handicap parking stalls will be required near the building in the McMenemy Street parking lot. 2. There is an existing hydrant located near the proposed parking lot access at the south end on McMenemy Street. It appears that this existing hydrant will fall in the curb line. First, it is questionable whether this hydrant will be needed after the existing school is removed. Whether the hydrant is needed should be verified with the Fire Chief and Public Works Director. If the fire hydrant is to remain in place, the curb line should be adjusted slightly or the hydrant relocated so that it falls five feet behind the new curb line. 3. There will be a certain amount of overland flow which will drain directly onto McMenemy Street from the northern driveway access. With the installation of a storm drainage system to drain the remainder of the parking lot, we would recommend that additional catch basins be stubbed up to this location to pick up as much drainage as possible and eliminate overland flow onto McMenemy Street. There is also a small parking area off of Little Canada Road in the northwestern part of the site. This parking lot creates two access points onto Little Canada Road within less than 100 feet of each other. Little Canada Road is a County Road so therefore a Ramsey County permit will be necessary for the construction of these access points. We question whether two access points this close together should be allowed on Little Canada Road. 0:\PROJ \813240) \0240\LU 01 -05.01 PingCom.doc r-. owai Page 56 ppany Honorable Chairman and Planning Commission January 5, 2001 Page Three If you have any questions regarding these comments, please call.

As we discussed at our meeting, the Watershed District will require the following changes to the plans: 1. Calculations and details shall be submitted for the infiltration trench. The infiltration trench is required to provide a 72 -hour detention time for the 2 -year flood event. 2. An outlet structure shall be constructed similar to the enclosed drawing. The structure should allow any rain events greater that the 2 -year event to overflow into the structure. The structure and the trench should be designed so that the 2- year event produces a depth of 18 -24 inches in the trench. If the diameter of the structure and the outlet pipe is large, the infiltration trench should be able to contain the 100 -year event. 3. The pipe leading to FES #10 and the infiltration trench outlet pipe shall be extended to the normal water level of Savage Lake. 4.

JOHN'S CHURCH Motion seconded by Duray. Motion carried 4 — 0. Dave Heller, H2 Architects, appeared before the Commission requesting plan review, a Conditional Use Permit for off -site parking, and a property division for St. John's Church as relates to their construction of a new school facility as well as a new rectory. The Commission began with a review of the property division to create a new lot on the Savage Lane cul -de -sac. Father Fitzpatrick reported that the new lot would be created and a house constructed on the lot. This house would serve as the residence for the priest for the church. Father Fitzpatrick pointed out that the existing residence will be converted to all office area and meeting space. Keis asked if the lot would remain zoned Public. The City Planner indicated that the Public zoning allows for residential uses for people employed at the church. Therefore, the property division can occur and a new rectory constructed under the Public zoning. Should the church no longer need the house and would decide to sell it, the property would have to be rezoned to R -1. The property owner at 335 Savage Lane asked for more information on the property division. Father Fitzpatrick indicated that the lot would be 90 feet by 125 feet. A single- family style home and garage would be constructed on the lot and would serve as the home for the church priest. Access to the house would be via Savage Lane. Father Fitzpatrick indicated that as many trees as possible would remain on the lot. Traffic to and from the house would be limited and likely just that of the priest coming and going from his home. Duray asked if the lot met the City's minimum requirements. The City Planner indicated that the lot exceeds minimum requirements. Keis asked if there would be any issues with drainage for this lot. The City Planner pointed out that some grading of the lot would be necessary to construct the home. He felt that drainage issues were more related to the remainder of the St. John's proposal. Mr. Barraclough recommended approval of the property division proposed by St. John's Church for a lot at the end of Savage Lane subject to compliance with the recommendations of the City Planner and the City Engineer. Page 61 MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 11, 2001 Motion seconded by Duray. Motion carried 4 — 0. The Commission discussed parking issues related to the proposal. It was noted that while the City's parking requirements call for 220 spaces, there has been 190 parking spaces proposed, 110 of which are on -site, 29 off- site north of Little Canada Road, and 51 off -site east of McMenemy Road It was noted that for large gatherings, St. John's would plow an overflow parking area on site. The City Planner indicated that St. John's counted the number of parking spaces that get utilized during heavy demand times and came up with 180 vehicles. This included parking in parking lots as well as on- street parking. The Planner indicated that if this calculation is correct and St. John's provides 190 parking spaces, the need for on- street parking will cease. There will be certain times, however, when 190 parking spaces will not be enough, and St. John's can provide temporary on -site parking. However, if there are regular parking shortages, the Planner recommended that the City reserve the right to require the installation of additional on- site parking. There is adequate room to do so on the property. Barraclough asked what the City's mechanism is for requiring additional on -site parking. The City Planner pointed out that the property is very visible and if parking is a problem, the City will be aware of it. The City can then require that additional on -site parking is installed. There was some discussion of the on- street parking situation that currently exists, and it was pointed out that on- street parking at the intersection of McMenemy Street and Little Canada Road had become a safety problem. Signage was installed to address this problem. Roycraft asked if the on- street parking would be totally eliminated in this area once St. John's has adequate on -site parking. The Planner indicated that the Council would likely address that issue if there was the need to do so. Roycraft suggested that perhaps a walk signal could be installed to assist people crossing the street to St. John's off -site parking. Father Fitzpatrick noted that with the increase in on -site parking there would be fewer people crossing the street to the off -site parking. Keis indicated the City Engineer's recommendations regarding drainage that will have to be complied with.

Fahey COUNCIL Beverly Scalze Jim LaValle Matt Anderson Rick Montour ADMINISTRATOR Joel R. Hanson State Senator Mady Reiter (former Shoreview City Council member) will be present at Wednesday's meeting to re- introduce herself to us given her new position and to talk about legislative issues of importance to us. In a related topic, the Ramsey County League of Local Governments will be holding their legislative round table discussions on Thursday, January 25th at the League of Minnesota Cities building from 7 to 8:30 p.m. (All elected officials are welcomed and encouraged to attend.) They have asked us for our top five legislative priorities /issues. Attached is a summary listing of the LMC's 2001 legislative policies. (Detailed descriptions of each policy are available on their web site should you be interested. I also have a copy in my office.) Some of the key issues facing our community are as follows: ❖ Telecommunications restructuring and the impact on our cable franchise fees; + Property tax reform and its implication for TIF District revenue streams; ❖ Re- establishment of sales tax exemption for Local government purchases (especially in light of substantial surpluses and possible property tax reforms); • The push for wine sales in grocery stores thereby increasing youth access to alcohol; ❖ The need for retaining walls on I -35E and 694; ❖ Tax Increment Financing reforms (further limitations and /or prohibitions making redevelopment difficult; The Council may want to talk about these issues with Senator Reiter and prioritize their top five issue /concerns for use at Thursday's RCLLG meeting. Page 64 MINUTES PLANNING COMMISSION JANUARY 11, 2001 ADJOURN Barraclough asked about handicapped parking. Dave Heller replied that handicapped parking requirements will be met, and they are working on the proper locations for this parking. Keis recommended approval of the Conditional Use Permit for off -site parking as requested by St. John's Church subject to compliance with the recommendations of the City Planner and the City Engineer and reserving the right to require installation of additional on -site parking in the future should the City determine there is the need to do so. Motion seconded by Roycraft. Motion carried 4 — 0. Duray recommended that the meeting be adjourned. Motion seconded by Barraclough. Motion carried 4 — 0.

The original agreement required the bus hub project to be completed no later than December 31, 2000. The first amendment to this agreement, extends the completion date of the project to no later than September 7, 2001. This will enable us to complete the site restoration work that still needs to be done and also allow us to continue to bill Metro Transit for the work that needs to be accomplished. Also, the original agreement required the City of Little Canada to relocate the interim bus hub at any time after August 15, 2003, if we develop the area where the bus hub is located. This is now being revised to prior to August 15, 2003. This reflects Metro Transit's intent to protect its investment in the hub until 2003. Based on my review of the agreement, I recommend Council approval of the First Amendment to the Joint Powers Agreement for the construction of the Little Canada interim bus hub. \ \CLCSR V 01 \HOME \KrisP \CORRESP \Kris' 2001 \Bu: Page 74 Contract No. 0010031 FIRST AMENDMENT TO JOINT POWERS AGREEMENT FOR CONSTRUCTION OF A TRANSIT HUB The parties agree that the agreement they entered into August 29, 2000, relating to construction of the Interim Rice Street and Little Canada Transit Hub, is amended in the following particulars: L Article VII, TERM, is amended to read: VII. TERM This agreement shall be in force and effect as of the date of execution by both parties. The City will complete the Project no later than September 7, 200L The term of this agreement and of all easements, access rights, rights of entry, and permits granted pursuant to this agreement shall remain in effect as provided in paragraph 5.02, unless otherwise agreed by the parties. At such time that the Transit Hub is no longer in regional transit use, the Council agrees to notify the City, remove the passenger waiting shelters, and perform such work as to leave the site in a condition reasonably satisfactory to the City. This work shall be performed within sixty (60) days of Council notice to the City that the Council has ceased regional transit use of the Transit Hub. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if at any time after August 15, 2003, the City approves a development of the area on the north side of Little Canada, which development would include the street right of way along First Bank Drive between Middle Street and Market Place Drive where the Interim Rice Street and Little Canada Transit Hub (herein "facility ") is located, then the Council and City agree to relocate the facility on other street right of way within the area. The exact location shall be mutually agreeable to both parties. The City shall give six (6) months written notice to the Council prior to the relocation of the facility. The Council would pay the costs of the relocation of the shelters. The City would pay the costs of the relocation of streetlights, planters, and any related road improvements. 2. The parties agree that this amendment is effective as of December 30, 2000, Except as amended hereby, the provisions of the above - referenced agreement shall remain in force and effect without change. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties have caused this amendment to be executed by their duly- authorized representatives.

Stat. §340A.504, Subd. 4 (1996), which provides, in part, as follows: No sale of intoxicating liquor may.be.made.by an off -sale licensee: (1) on Sunday; (5) on Thanksgiving day; (6) en Christmas day, December 25 ... . Section 703.140(2) of the Little Canada Code prohibits "off- sale" on New Year's day, in addition to Thanksgiving day and Christmas day. In A/AL, INC., et al vs. City of Faribault, the Minnesota Court of Appeals held that the City of Faribault could not prohibit "off- sale'', except on Sundays, Thanksgiving day, or Christmas day. Therefore, the Little Canada restriction on "off-sale" on New Year's day would not be enforceable. Would you please submit this matter to the Council for their consideration.

It is this provision that will serve as the basis of the workshop we will be having with representatives of the Sheriff's Department. The workshop can be held on February 14th, 28th, or March 14th. George Altendorfer, the new Undersheriff in charge of the Patrol Division, prefers that the meeting be held sooner rather than later. I would recommend a 6 p.m. starting time.

Ilanson Email: cityhall @ci.little- canada.mn.us MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Fahey and Members of the City Council FROM: Joel R. Hanson, City Administrator DATE: January 19, 2001 RE: Final Payment to Bonestroo, Rosene, Anderlik & Associates Attached is documentation from Jerry Bourden of Bonestroo that serves as the basis of their offer to settle our outstanding claims. The key issues of this settlement are as follows: Unpaid Invoices and Interest — Given the outstanding issues we had with our former engineers, I withheld payment on a number of invoices totaling $21,562.95. We do owe this amount. Because of the delays in payment, Bonestroo imposed $6,407.19 of interest charges related to the outstanding invoices. They have agreed to forego this interest amount in their settlement offer. Resolution of Arcade Intersection Reconstruction — The City spent an additional $18,217.70 to design and install the median at the intersection of Keller Parkway and Arcade Street. These costs include over $1,800 paid to Howard R. Green for design services as well as construction costs. Bonestroo has agreed to pay one half this amount or $8,458.85 as their share of these costs. Keeping in mind that the City of Maplewood agreed to pay one half of these costs, this is a fair resolution. Mapping Upgrades — We had authorized Bonestroo to upgrade our utility base maps in an electronic format based on an estimated budget of $12,000 back in 1994. We had paid approximately $9,800 to date for this upgrade with Bonestroo claiming an additional $14,702.13 for completion of this work. The City did ask for some additional services resulting in over Page 81 $3,000 in costs beyond the estimated amount. To settle this issue, Bonestroo has agreed to write off $9,806.23. This results in the mapping project costing us an additional $4,895.90 ($4,718.06 over initial estimates). Given the nature of this work and the fact we have our maps in digital format that can be used by our current engineers, I feel this is a reasonable settlement. Bonestroo will be turning over the electronic records to us "as is ". I believe this will be adequate given the substantial rework they have undertaken to ensure the accuracy of these records. Return of Mylars — With the digital mapping project, we had to supply our as- builts in mylar format. Bonestroo will return those to us as part of this settlement. Release — Acceptance of their settlement offer will constitute a release of all claims against each other. Subject to any comments by the City Attorney, I would recommend approval of the settlement offer to Bonestroo, Ronsene & Anderlik totaling $18,000 and subject to the terms and conditions as outlined in this memo. Page 82 Letter of Transmittal To: Joel Hanson From: Jerry Bourdon Date: December 28, 2000 Subject: Final Payment for Services In accordance with our conversation yesterday, I am submitting the following • Revised settlement offer memo • Invoice for final services rendered. In accordance with our discussion: • I revised the language concerning confidentiality. Language was changed from "kept confidential" to "handled discretely and professionally ". • I also added the last sentence concerning release of all claims by both parties. The invoice format and language was also crafted in accordance with our discussion. Please process the final payment as soon as possible so we can both put this matter to rest. Page 83 To: Joel Hanson From: Jerry Bourdon Date: December 28, 2000 Memorandum For settlement discussion only Subject: Final payment for services Settlement offer Introduction The following summarizes our offer to settle the unpaid invoices. In essence this settlement offer: • splits the cost of the Arcade issue, • removes our claim for interest, • discounts the mapping costs, and • provides a discount for a settlement agreement in lieu of litigation In addition to the financial settlement we also expect the following • holdharmless for the utility mapping • the terms of the agreement will be handled discretely and professionally Summary of claim Claimed amount Unpaid invoices 21,562.95 Interest 6,407.19 Unpaid mapping 14,702.13 Total Claimed Amount 42,672.70 Settlement adjustment - deducts Cost split of Arcade 8,458.85 Interest 6,407.19 Mapping write off 3,202.13 Dispute resolution avoidance 6,604.10 Settlement Offer 18,000.00 Comments We reiterate for the record that we believe that BRAA is not responsible for the Arcade issue. We believe that contractor error or interference by others is the more likely cause of the issue. This settlement is a good faith offer to settle our differences. The settlement offer recognizes that there are inherent differences of opinion between our firm and the city that we will never be able to resolve. However litigation is neither in Little Canada's or our firm's best interests. Acceptance of this offer by both parties shall be a release of all claims against the other.

Fahey COUNCIL Beverly Scalze Jim LaValle Matt Anderson Rick Montour ADMINISTRATOR Joel R. Hanson The attached survey was sent to property owners on Twin Lake Road and Twin Lake Trail in an attempt to define the parking problem which was raised at a recent neighborhood meeting as well as determine the solution preferred by the majority of residents in that area. The results of that survey are summarized on the color -coded maps attached. Please note from the maps that the property owners at 3283 and 3288 Twin Lake Road choose both the options of "Parking should be allowed on only one side of the street" and "No overnight parking should be allowed on the street ". I am also attaching a summary of comments made by the residents on the survey forms. Two survey forms were received without addresses, therefore, are not shown on the map summary. These forms provided the following input: Defining the problem: 2 — On street parking problems exist in isolated areas. Choosing an option: 1 — Parking should be allowed on only one side of the street. 1 — No overnight parking should be allowed on the street. Based on the results of the neighborhood survey, it is staff's recommendation that Twin Lake Road be posted as no parking on the west and south sides of the street. Staff is further recommending that parking remain unrestricted on Twin Lake Trail. Page 86 MAYOR Michael I.

Hanson Email: cityhall @ci.little - canada.mn.us MEMORANDUM TO: Property Owners Along Twin Lake Road and Twin Lake Trail FROM: Joel R. Hanson, City Administrator DATE: January 3, 2001 RE: On Street Parking At the December 12th neighborhood meeting, concern was expressed about on street parking occurring on Twin Lake Road and Twin Lake Trail, and the possibility of implementing some type of parking restriction was discussed. Three options were identified: allow parking on only one side of the street, prohibit overnight parking, and prohibit parking at all times. The City Council briefly discussed this matter, and has directed that a survey of the neighborhood be done to determine the preference of the majority of property owners. Therefore, I would like to request that you complete the survey form attached and return it in the enclosed postage -paid envelope on or before January 18th. The Council will be presented with a summary of this information for consideration at their January 24th meeting. Page 87 TWIN LAKE ROAD/TRAIL PARKING SURVEY Defining the problem: (Check one) On street parking is a concern along the entire stretch of roadway. On street parking problems exist in isolated areas. There is no parking problem. Comments you feel necessary to help explain the situation: Choosing an option: (Check one): Parking should be allowed on only one side of the street. No overnight parking should be allowed on the street. No on street parking should be allowed. On street parking should be allowed as currently exists. Other options: Name: Address: Please return on or before January 18`x'. Page 88 TWIN LAKE ROAD/TRAIL SURVEY COMMENTS Defining the problem: Parking too close to the 90 degree turns present a problem. Should be a 100 -foot restriction on the narrower part of Twin Lake Road. Have there been any complaints from the Ramsey County Sheriff's Department? There is a problem if cars park on both sides or too close to the corners (there are three 90- degree turns on Twin Lake Road /Trail). It will be less of a problem if Twin Lake Road is widened. Only when people are holding some type of function. The problem arises sometimes by a rental property that has very limited parking in the driveway. It seems to happen only some times overnight or during weekends, when the tenants have guests. There have been cases of congestion on the east end of Twin Lake Road by the duplex with cars parked on both sides of the road near each other. Street parking is a problem along Twin Lake Road where the road is narrow. There is no parking problem on wider Twin Lake Trail. There is a real safety issue on Twin Lake Road Cars parking on street near curves on Twin Lake Road eliminates one lane and are potentially dangerous. The duplex (3278 and 3280 Twin Lake Road) park their cars on the street. This is right by a curve and is a bad place. Rest of Twin Lake Road and Trail is O.K. Parking problem exists between 3283 Twin Lake Road and corner just east of this. Some people park near the curves in the road. This makes it very difficult to get around them. Page 91 It is too narrow a road to get past a car parked on the side, particularly in the winter. One morning, no one from Twin Lake Trail could get out because two vehicles were parked across from each other blocking the roadway. It is very frightening to think that emergency vehicles cannot get through to us if they needed to. Cars parked on road right at curves — also parking at times, people are parking on both sides of the street at the residence of the party — and also in front of neighbors. On street parking seems to be a problem mainly along Twin Lake Road. It has not been too much of a problem on Twin Lake Trail. Problem is very limited and occasional. In one plus year I have lived near end of Twin Lake Trail, have had a problem maybe 3 or 4 times. Problem when people don't use common sense and park on opposite sides leaving very little space to get through on the street. Yes, where the road narrows down on Twin Lake Road. Choosing an option: Park on one side of street and not close to the turns in the road. A duplex has parking right before the curve. It's hard for buses to make the turns. On Twin Lake Trail the road is wide enough, but on Twin Lake Road I doubt whether an emergency vehicle could get through some times. Too narrow if you are going to allow on street parking. No parking on Twin Lake Road unless it is widened. The school buses cannot negotiate turns and dodge parked cars on Twin Lake Road At or near corners this still could be a problem, especially on slippery winter road surfaces. The visitors (rental property on Twin Lake Road) park on both sides of a street that is too narrow to support this type of parking. Parking should be limited to one side of the street only. Page 92 In addition to no overnight parking, there should be parking on one side of the street during the daytime. Parking one side — weekend only. There are occasionally problems when cars are parked on both sides of the road and it can be tough to get through. Maybe require "X amount" of space between vehicles parked on opposite sides of the street. Problem with this is determining who parked second. I don't believe problem is serious enough to require change. With exception of school buses parked at 3333 Twin Lake Road. No school buses. Page 93 MAYOR Michael I.

Hanson Email: cityhall @ci.little - canada.mn.us MEMORANDUM TO: Mayor Fahey and Members of the City Council FROM: Joel R. Hanson, City Administrator DATE: January 19, 2001 RE: 2001 Projects Update Given the outcome of the Twin Lake improvement hearing, staff has re- evaluated the practicality of continuing with the other two improvements (Sextant and Australian/Bluwood). Without the major pipe work involved in the Twin Lake project, the Sextant project creates concerns related to pricing of the limited underground work, the quality of the contractor we could obtain for this smaller project, and the differences in the nature of the projects when one considers Sextant versus Australian/Bluwood. A paving contractor can readily handle Australian/Bluwood. Given the fact we have the final lift of asphalt for Little Canada Road to be installed this summer, we may obtain an economy of scale with an aggressive bid from that contractor. The underground work on Sextant would likely negate that possibility since a paving contractor would have to subcontract the underground work. Given the small scale and complexities of the Sextant project's underground work, we feel it would be best to keep that project combined with the Twin Lake work. Staff has been evaluating a maintenance project on Thunder Bay Road that will require the replacement of about 400 lineal feet of curb plus patch repair of the street surface near Allen. A very rough cost estimate for this work is approximately $20,000. A better cost estimate will be provided at the Council meeting. Since a paving contractor would do this repair work, we feel it would be in the best interests of the City to include this work with the Australian/Bluwood project. Therefore, staff would recommend we reconsider the resolution ordering the improvement of Sextant Avenue. We would further recommend that we cancel the Sextant improvement at this time and notify the neighborhood of the basis of that decision. (This action will require a new public hearing to recommence the project in the future.) Lastly, we would recommend proceeding with the Australian/Bluwood project including the Thunder Bay Road repairs subject to an evaluation of the bids received. cc: Terry Maurer, City Engineer Page 94 MAYOR Michael I.
