NOW,THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Lino
Lakes hereby makes the following findings:
FINDINGS OF FACT
1. The proposed development application has been found to be consistent with the
policies and recommendations of the Lino Lakes Comprehensive Plan including:
a. Land Use Plan.
b. Transportation Plan.
c. Utility(Sewer and Water)Plans.
d. Local Water Management Plan.
e. Capital Improvement Plan.
f. Policy Plan.
g. Natural Environment Plan.
The proposed earth moving/black dirt stockpile is consistent with the Land Use,
Utility, Local Water Management, Capital Improvement, Policy and Natural
Environmental Plans and recommendations of the comprehensive plan with the
required plan revisions as detailed in February 9, 2022, staff report.
2. The proposed development application is compatible with present and future land
uses of the area.
The proposed earth moving/black dirt stockpile is compatible with present and future
land uses of the area. Present land use is vacant commercial and future land use is
commercial. Earth moving is allowed in all zoning districts with conditions.
3. The proposed development application conforms to performance standards herein and
other applicable City Codes.
The proposed earth moving/black dirt stockpile conforms to the performance
standards of the City Code with conditions as established. The plans have been
reviewed by City staff and were submitted to the RCWD for review.
2
4. Traffic generated by a proposed development application is within the capabilities of
the City when:
a. If the existing level of service(LOS) outside of the proposed subdivision is A
or B,traffic generated by a proposed subdivision will not degrade the level of
service more than one grade.
b. If the existing LOS outside of the proposed subdivision is C,traffic generated
by a proposed subdivision will not degrade the level of service below C.
c. If the existing LOS outside of the proposed subdivision is D,traffic generated
by a proposed subdivision will not degrade the level of service below D.
d. The existing LOS must be D or better for all streets and intersections
providing access to the subdivision. If the existing level of service is E or F,
the subdivision developer must provide, as part of the proposed project,
improvements needed to ensure a level of service D or better.
e. Existing roads and intersections providing access to the subdivision must have
the structural capacity to accommodate projected traffic from the proposed
subdivision or the developer will pay to correct any structural deficiencies.
f. The traffic generated from a proposed subdivision shall not require City street
improvements that are inconsistent with the Lino Lakes Capital Improvement
Plan. However, the City may, at its discretion, consider developer-financed
improvements to correct any street deficiencies.
g. The LOS requirements in paragraphs a.to d. above do not apply to the I-
35W/Lake Drive or I-35E/Main St. interchanges. At City discretion,
interchange impacts must be evaluated in conjunction with Anoka County and
the Minnesota Dept. of Transportation, and a plan must be prepared to
determine improvements needed to resolve deficiencies. This plan must
determine traffic generated by the subdivision project,how this traffic
contributes to the total traffic, and the time frame of the improvements. The
plan also must examine financing options, including project contribution and
cost sharing among other jurisdictions and other properties that contribute to
traffic at the interchange.
h. The City does not relinquish any rights of local determination.
The black dirt stockpile operation currently exists south of the proposed relocation on
the Centerville side of 21"Avenue S. The applicant estimates a maximum of 50 trucks
per day will access the site. A traffic study was not completed due to the fact that the
existing operation is relocating to a nearby site and the current location will cease
3
operations. Traffic generated by the black dirt operation will not change the traffic
on 21"Avenue S or at the 21"Avenue S/Main Street intersection.
21"Avenue S is a 9-ton design, but during spring road restrictions a 5-ton limit
applies. The truck traffic will be limited to these weight restrictions. The hauling,
dumping and grading of excavated materials shall occur within the project
boundaries as shown on the plans. The site will be limited to one access.
5. The proposed development shall be served with adequate and safe water supply.
The proposed earth moving/black dirt stockpile does not require a water service as
proposed. Municipal water main is located along 21 s`Avenue S and in the drainage
and utility easement on the properties should the applicant wish to connect in the
future.
6. The proposed development shall be served with an adequate and safe sanitary sewer
system.
The proposed earth moving/black dirt stockpile does not require service by sanitary
sewer. However,facilities should be provided on site for any employees of the black
dirt operation. Municipal sanitary sewer is located along 2Pt Avenue S and in the
drainage and utility easement on the properties should the applicant wish to connect
in the future.
7. The proposed development shall not result in the premature expenditures of City
funds on capital improvements necessary to accommodate the proposed development.
The proposed earth moving/black dirt stockpile will not expend City funds.
8. The proposed development will not involve uses, activities,processes, materials,
equipment and conditions of operation that will be detrimental to any persons,
property, or the general welfare because of excessive production of traffic,noise,
smoke, fumes, glare, or odors.
The proposed earth moving/black dirt stockpile will not be detrimental to any
persons or property. Hours of operation, noise control measures, and erosion/dust
control measures will be enforced.
9. The proposed development will not result in the destruction, loss, or damage of a
natural, scenic or historic feature of major importance.
The proposed earth moving/black dirt stockpile should not result in the destruction,
loss or damage of natural, scenic or historic features as no known natural, scenic or
historic features exist in the area. The existing wetlands and jloodplain will not be
affected by the activities as currently proposed.

BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by The City Council of Lino Lakes in addition to the
administrative requirements of a conditional use permit,the following standards of
Section 1007.050, are being met:
(a) Properly fence any pit or excavation, and barricade entrances to prevent the general
public from depositing garbage or refuse.
The proposed plans indicate earth moving for a stockpile, not a pit. The proposed
plans do not currently show any fencing around the earth moving/black dirt stockpile
operation or any barricades at the entrance. Staff is proposing that silt fence be
placed around the stockpile as a condition of this permit.
(b) Slope the banks, and otherwise guard and keep any pit or excavation in such
condition as not to be dangerous because of sliding or caving banks.
The proposed earth moving/black dirt stockpile is proposed with 3:1 side slopes on
all sides, except for the working side, reducing the risk of sliding or caving banks.
Areas not being excavated shall be established with turf within seven (7) days of
placement to avoid sliding.
(c) Properly drain, fill, or level off any pit or excavation so as to make the same safe and
healthful as the permitting authority may determine.
The proposed earth moving/black dirt stockpile site is designed to drain in a similar
manner as the existing conditions. Approximately half of the stockpile will drain
towards the existing wetland east of the site and the other half will drain towards 21"
Avenue S. Erosion control is proposed and will be needed to ensure that sediment is
prevented from entering the wetland and storm sewer systems.
(d) Limit the depth of such excavation to an elevation no lower than the minimum floor
elevation for building construction as established by the City Engineer, so as not to
diminish development potential of the parcel.
Not applicable to this project.
(e) Limit any fill material to clean fill, defined as rock, sand, gravel, clay, or other like
and similar non-decomposable material. Concrete, asphalt,metal,wood, and other
debris shall be prohibited.
The project is only proposing stockpiling black dirt. The site will be limited to this
type of material. The City will reserve the right to test the material.
(f) Require that all decomposable material, or other unsuitable foundation material,be
removed from an area before deposition of fill begins.
Not applicable to this project.
5
(g) Prepare a site plan showing existing and proposed grade elevations and effect of
storm water drainage on adjacent areas.
A site plan showing the existing and proposed grade elevations for the proposed
earth moving/black dirt stockpile was provided.
(h) Specify a time when the excavation or land reclamation project shall be completed.
The proposed earth moving/black dirt operations will occur in the summer months.
The conditional use permit will be reviewed every three (3)years for renewal.
Renewal shall be approved by City Council.
(i) Place a minimum of four(4) inches of top soil over the completed project and
establish appropriate ground cover within sixty(60) days of completion, or in a time
period consistent with the City's stormwater management and pollution prevention
plan.
The proposed black dirt stockpile shall be seeded or hydromulched within seven (7)
days of initial placement. Once the stockpile has been relocated to the site, at least
50%of the stockpile shall be stabilized and remain stabilized with vegetation at all
times.
(j) Reimburse the City for the cost of periodic inspections by the City for the purpose of
determining that the terms under which the permit has been issued are being complied
with.
The City will maintain a$5,000 non-interest bearing escrow account provided by the
owner that shall be reestablished annually by January 15`h. This escrow will be for
inspection, erosion control, and other City costs associated with the operation of the
stockpile.
If the above escrow amount is insufficient, the owner shall make such additional
deposits as required by the City. The City shall have a right to reimburse itself from
the Escrow with suitable documentation supporting the charges.
(k) Implement the tree preservation plan.
Not applicable to this site.
(1) In addition to a conditional use permit,the City Engineer may determine that permits
in excess of twenty-five thousand(25,000)cubic yards require the applicant to
conduct a neighborhood meeting and to notify affected property owners within one-
quarter(1/4)mile.
Properties within 350 feet, as required for CUP's, and the City of Centerville were
notified.A neighborhood meeting is not proposed at this time.
6
(m) Post a form of security and sum as the permitted authority may require, running to
the City, conditioned to pay the City the cost and expense of repairing or cleaning any
highways, streets, or other public ways within the City made necessary by the special
burden resulting from transporting thereon by the applicant material to or from the
site,the amount of such cost to be determined by the Council; and conditioned further
to comply with all the requirements of this Ordinance and the particular permit, and
to save the City free and harmless from all suits or claims for damages resulting from
the negligent excavation,removal, storage, or filling of rock, sand, dirt, gravel, clay,
or other like material within the City.
The City will collect a form of security at the time of approval of the Site Performance
Agreement.
(n) Other conditions deemed appropriate to the application by the permitting authority.
This Conditional Use Permit, if approved by City Council, shall only be valid for
three (3)years and the owner will have to apply for renewal. Renewal must be
approved by the City Council.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED by The City Council of the City of Lino Lakes hereby

BACKGROUND
Gerald Rehbein submitted a Land Use Application for a conditional use permit for earth
moving/black dirt stockpile on the properties located on 21 st Avenue South. The black dirt
stockpile operation will replace the existing location at 692121 st Avenue S, Centerville,
Minnesota. Operations at 692121 st Avenue S will cease once the Lino Lakes site is
operational. The applicant stated the material from the stockpile will be available for public
and local business use during the summer months from 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
This staff report is based on the following plan sets:
1
• ALTA/NSPS Land Title Survey prepared by EG Rud & Sons, Inc. dated December 23,
2021
• Site, Grading, Erosion and Sediment Control Plan prepared by Carlson McCain dated
January 10, 2022
• Clearwater Creek Business Center North Wetland Delineation Report prepared by
Kjolhaug Environmental Services Company, Inc., dated August 5, 2021
• Preliminary Geotechnical Exploration Report, Haugo Geotechnical Services, dated
November 26, 2021
• Applicant's Rice Creek Watershed District permit application, dated January 10, 2022
ANALYSIS
Section 1007.050 of the Zoning Ordinance establishes requirements for earth moving and land
reclamation. Earth removal, land reclamation, material storage or filling is a permitted use in
all zoning districts. A conditional use permit is required when 5,000 cubic yards or more of
material is planned to be removed or deposited on any lot or parcel.
The three parcels are approximately 18.36 acres and are located between 21 st Avenue S and I-
35E. The proposed stockpile will be approximately 2.7 acres in area,will have a maximum
height of 40 feet, and will be approximately 100,000 cubic yards of black dirt according to the
plans. The applicant estimates there will be a maximum of 50 trucks per day accessing the site.
Access
The site is located at the intersection of 21 st Avenue S and Commerce Drive. The applicant is
currently proposing access to the site from 21 st Avenue S via a rock construction entrance that
will be converted to a gravel entrance after the initial import of the black dirt material.
Wetlands
Wetlands are shown on the plan sheet and do not appear to be impacted by the black dirt
stockpile. A wetland delineation was completed onsite in June of 2021 by Kjolhaug
Environmental Services Company, Inc. The Wetland Delineation Report dated August 5, 2021
states there are five (5)wetlands onsite. The estimated wetland boundaries are shown to be at a
sufficient distance from the proposed areas of disturbance. As the proposed,the project will
not impact any wetlands.
Drainage Ditches
Judicial Ditch No. 3 (Clearwater Creek) borders adjacent property to the south of the site and a
private drainage ditch runs on the easterly side of the property. The applicant is not proposing
any changes to the existing drainage patterns to the drainage ditches.
Floodplain
The 2015 DFIRM indicates Zone A floodplain on the site. The applicant is not proposing any
impacts to the floodplain on the site.
2
Grading and Drainage
A Grading, Drainage & Erosion Control plan was submitted and has been reviewed by the City
Engineer and Environmental Coordinator. Please see attached comments.
Comprehensive Plan and Zoning
The parcels are guided for commercial development and are currently zoned GB, General
Business. Section 1007.050, Earth Moving and Land Reclamation states earth removal shall be
permitted in all zoning districts and establishes conditions that must be met.
Tree Preservation Plan

To: Diane Hankee, Kelsey Gelhar
From: Andy Nelson
Date: January 18th, 2022
Re: Environmental Comments/Rehbein black dirt pile
1. A trained individual with current certification in erosion and sediment control
must perform inspections at a minimum every 7 days and within 24 hours
after a rainfall event greater than '/2 inch in 24 hours. Inspection records must
be retained with the SWPPP and include information detailed in 11.11 of the
Construction Stormwater General Permit. Contact information for the
inspector must be provided to the city prior to any soil disturbance on the site.
2. Silt fence should be used instead of the sediment control logs shown on the
plan. A trench 1-2' deep on the stockpile side of the silt fence is
recommended to minimize maintenance of the silt fence.
Note that BMPs that become non-functional or'/2 full of sediment must be
repaired, replaced, or supplemented by the end of the next day after
discovery.
3. Street tracking generated must be swept within one calendar day of
discovery.
4. Water suppression, soil binding agents, wind blocks, or other dust
suppression methods may be required if dust leaving the site becomes an
issue as identified by the city.
5. Rock construction entrance will require regular maintenance.
6. Portions of the stockpile that are not in regular use should be stabilized with
seed and hyrdomulch.
