1. Community Solar Gardens – Community Development Director Grochala 15
recalled that Lino Lakes Solar LLC has applied for a text amendment to the City’s zoning 16
ordinance to allow community solar gardens. The process for a text amendment has 17
started and a hearing was held by the Planning and Zoning Board. It is within the 18
Council’s purview to deny the land use change. The council could direct staff to prepare 19
a proposed ordinance if they are interested in pursuing the amendment. If the council is 20
not interested in considering the requested text amendment, it would be appropriate to 21
make that direction now and take a formal action at the council meeting. 22
23
Mayor Reinert remarked that he asked for more information five weeks ago but just 24
received a large batch of information last Friday, too late for him to fully study the data. 25
Based on that, he is a no vote at this time. He feels it was disrespectful that the council 26
didn’t receive the requested information. 27
28
Council Member Rafferty concurred. 29
30
Council Member Stoesz said he isn’t in favor of the amendment based on his research. 31
32
Council Member Maher said she’s in favor of the concept and would like more 33
information. 34
35
Community Development Director Grochala clarified that the information requested by 36
the council is included in the staff report. He added that there are different approaches to 37
the question of allowing community solar gardens in the city – will the City allow this 38
type of land use and also the discussion about whether the concept fits into this City. The 39
second matter perhaps a discussion item in the future. 40
41
The council will consider an action denying the request for text amendment. 42

2. 2018 Street Reconstruction Project Update (West Shadow Lake & LaMotte 45
Areas), Michael Grochala and Jim Stremel of WSB & Associates – Community 46
Development Director Grochala introduced Jim Stremmel, WSB & Associates project 47
manager for the West Shadow Lake Drive project. Mr. Stremmel noted the recent public 48
meeting for residents that was well attended and at which information on project design 49
was given. Staff will be bringing forward actions on this project (plan design, 50
specifications, bidding documents) at the second council meeting in July. 51
52
Regarding the LaMotte area project, Mr. Stremmel gave a status update; the project is 53
being modified in regard to soil and site access and will be ready for rebid on July 23, 54
2018. 55
56
Mr. Grochala reviewed a PowerPoint presentation regarding lot subdivision, which may 57
of interest to some property owners with the addition of public utilities. His presentation 58
included information on: 59
- Subdivision Location Map; 60
- Zoning and Subdivision – applicable regulations and requirements; planning for 61
possible subdivisions (examples identified by city engineer); 62
- How will the City handle subdivision requests that don’t meet requirements but are 63
close; 64
- Should the City decide to “stub in” utilities where subdivision is possible (cost would be 65
significantly higher if done after road work), at a cost of approximately $35,000 for 66
identified areas; Mayor Reinert remarked that the best approach would probably be to use 67
good judgment on what lots could be subdivided or are close, and stub those in, knowing 68
that most of the costs will come back eventually; 69
- What is appropriate zoning to consider subdivision (council concurred to go with R-70
1X). 71
72
Jamie Stern, 6820 West Shadow Lake Drive, addressed the council. He provided an 73
aerial view map of his property. His property substantially meets the requirements for 74
subdivision except he is under the 20,000 requirement. 75
76
The council concurred with directions made during the presentation. 77
3. 80th Street ROW, Snowmobile Club Use – Community Development Director 78
Grochala noted that the City has been approached by the Rice Creek Snowmobile Train 79
Association, a volunteer club that has created and maintains a large trail system that runs 80
through Lino Lakes. Mr. Grochala noted that the club uses public right of way as well as 81
permission of private property owners for the trail system. Due to a change in 82
ownership, they have lost a critical link in the corridor. There is, however, existing 83
public right of way in the vicinity. There is some encroachment onto that right of way by 84
an adjacent property owner (gardens, fences, etc.). Mr. Grochala said that, with the 85
council’s permission, he’d like to contact that property owner about the situation, and 86
with a proper explanation, get a portion of that public right of way area open for the 87

snowmobile corridor. 88
89
Council Member Stoesz asked if signage is involved in the corridor and Mr. Grochala 90
remarked that he believes that the association handles that element. 91
92
Council Member Manthey remarked that it is an opportunity for people to understand 93
where the property becomes public. 94
95
The council concurred that staff will proceed with speaking to the property owner. 96
4. Comprehensive Parks and Trails System Capital Improvement Plan Update 97
– Public Services Director DeGardner noted the council’s direction to come forward with 98
more information on this subject. He introduced Brian Bourassa, WSB & Associates, 99
who overviewed the data and map included in the staff report. 100
101
Mr. Bourassa explained that most cities do a regular assessment of parks and trails, using 102
a rating system. He is aware that Mr. DeGardner also uses an assessment process, using 103
a one to ten rating system. He is recommending, for a growing city like Lino lakes, that a 104
rolling five-year program would be best. That way you can plug in what you want in the 105
budget, but still be fluid as changes occur. Cities bundle the projects and staff comes up 106
with a program that keeps the level of service directed by the council. 107
108
Mayor Reinert noted that the council will begin the 2019 budget discussions next month. 109
He would like it to be understood that there are park facilities that won’t be perfect 110
because they are in the middle of a natural life cycle. A plan going forward will allow 111
the City to understand where all the elements are on that life cycle. The council can then 112
compare needs with the funding that is coming in through development and that is 113
budgeted. Mayor Reinert said he spoke with Mr. DeGardner at length on this topic and 114
he is happy with the information coming forward. 115
116
Mr. Bourassa remarked that in his review he can see that staff has done a good job in new 117
trail construction, making the most of those investments. 118
119
Council Member Stoesz asked staff to explore the possibility of utilizing a program like 120
Google maps to make the plan information more interactive for residents. 121
122
Director DeGardner received confirmation that the level of detail provided is appropriate 123
for the council. He also noted that staff and the Park Board will be utilizing the plan as 124
they move forward. The Mayor said the council will continue to drill down the 125
information. 126
127
Council Member Stoesz and Mayor Reinert requested that the grid information be 128
provided in different format (other than PDF) to allow for manipulation. 129
130
Council Member Manthey asked if the City is moving on the identified 2018 projects. 131
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION July 2, 2018

Director DeGardner said 2018 trail maintenance is going ahead as a budgeted item. The 132
future trails projects for 2018 (red section along Lake Drive and Century Farms North 133
trail) will go forward. Council Member Manthey remarked that it would be good to 134
provide that information on the city website so residents can become easily aware when 135
they see construction. 136
137
Mayor Reinert recalled that the recommendations coming forward from the Park Board 138
contain lots of trail work but he recalled that the council has had much discussion about 139
play structures and provided a budget that would get things done in that area. He really 140
needed additional information in order to see the sense of moving on trails. He sees the 141
opportunity now and has a clear vision of the economics. 142
143
Director DeGardner clarified that the only project that has been authorized at this time by 144
the council is the Birch Park project. But the Park Board has sent forward 145
recommendations for the rest of the budgeted funds. Staff will need further direction on 146
proceeding with other 2018 projects. Mayor Reinert concurred. 147
5. Phase I Recreation Complex Concept Plan – Public Services Director 148
DeGardner reviewed his written report. He is providing concept information (as 149
developed by WSB & Associates) on different possibilities. As far as costs, there is 150
information attached. 151
152
Mayor Reinert thanked staff for the information. 153
6. Anoka County Regional Economic Development Initiative – Community 154
Development Director Grochala noted this initiative to bring Anoka County to the front 155
on economic development. Initially the priorities of this initiative are identified as: 156
marketing, identifying sites (readiness), and roles. Mr. Grochala said he has been named 157
to the executive committee for the group and will look forward to bringing very up to 158
date information to the council. He feels it is an important time to “wet our toes” to see 159
how this evolves. The City is being asked to contribute $1,200, which he proposes to 160
come from the City’s economic development budget. At this time he feels this is a good 161
initiative that will benefit the city. 162
163
Mayor Reinert asked if there is a specific vision and Mr. Grochala said that development 164
of that is underway, including looking at getting away from negative connotations and 165
promoting the area as a good place to do business. 166
167
Mr. Grochala explained how economic development considerations are processed now 168
and how that could be bettered. 169
170
Council Member Stoesz asked for the total budget at this point; Mr. Grochala said 171
$40,000. 172

7. 2019 City Budget – Administrator Karlson noted that the management team has 173
been working on the 2019 budget over the past few weeks. The Finance Director will be 174
using that information to develop a preliminary 2019 budget that will be presented to the 175
council. Staff is recommending that the council have a special session to review that 176
information sometime after the preliminary budget is distributed on July 23. He noted 177
the preliminary valuation increase reported by the county and the impact the increase 178

The council concurred to meet on August 2nd at 6:00 p.m. 181
8. Council Updates on Boards/Commissions – There were no updates. 182
9. Monthly Progress Report – City Administrator Karlson reviewed the written 183
report, specifically: 184
185
- Labor Negotiations Update – meeting was held with Sergeants (mediation); there was 186
no agreement and they have filed for arbitration. Arbitration is scheduled with police in 187
August (he will be utilizing the services of the new city attorney firm); 188
- Employment Update – one vacant police officer position and the process is underway to 189
fill that position; 190
- Website Redesign – staff is working with the contractor and will begin the project. 191
10. Review Regular Agenda 192
193
Item 6A, Consider 1st Reading of Ordinance No. 09-18, Parking Regulations for Outdoor 194
Dining - City Planner Larsen reviewed the written staff report asking that the council 195
consider certain text amendments to deal with the situation of restaurants who wish to 196
add outdoor seating but have a problem meeting parking requirements. The proposed 197
amendment would require less parking (about half than the current) and if the outdoor 198
seating is below a specific threshold, no additional parking would be required. Mayor 199
Reinert expressed support. 200
201
Council Member Stoesz asked if the SAC and WAC charges would be impacted; staff 202
explained that those charges are set by the Metropolitan Council although the city doesn’t 203
normally charge those fees for outdoor seating. 204
205
Item 6B, Consider 1st Reading of Ordinance No. 10-18, Regarding Commercial Kennel 206
and Commercial Stable Performance Standards – City Planner Larsen noted that the city 207
did receive a complaint from someone next to an existing stable. There are several 208
within the city. Currently, within the rural zoning district, there are limitations on animal 209
units per parcel. Looking at commercial stables a little differently, and looking at other 210
communities, a recommendation is coming forward to change regulations. Ms. Larsen 211
reviewed the proposed changes. 212

The change originated with a complaint about a commercial stable. Staff has reviewed the ordinance 87
standards and is recommending that language be updated as outlined in the staff report. The 88
Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval of the text amendment with conditions relating to 89
acreage standards, simplifying the definition of commercial stable and consideration for leased land to 90
be included in maximums allowed. A conditional use permit will still be required for a commercial 91
stable. 92
93
Mayor Reinert remarked that he sees this as a good change. While it allows for additional activity in 94
the area of stables, it also makes sure that the activities are considered appropriately. 95

Planning and Zoning Board. Staff then brought information to the council and was ultimately 103
directed to deny a zoning text amendment. 104
105
Mayor Reinert remarked that while he is supportive of alternative energy, that doesn’t mean that 106
every project in that area fits in the city. He feels there are considerations in the area of government 107
subsidies for projects as well as the 25 year life of the gardens. He would rather see the advancement 108
of technology forwarding new projects rather than government subsidy pushing the advancement. 109

AGENDA ITEM 1D
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Lisa Hogstad-Osterhues, Deputy City Clerk
MEETING DATE: July 23, 2018
TOPIC Consider Resolution No. 18-93, Authorizing issuance
of a Special Event Permit for Hammerheart Brewing Co. &
1-4 Day Temporary Liquor License
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
City Code Chapter 615 are the City’s regulations regarding special events. The purpose of these
regulations is to protect the health, safety and welfare of citizens by regulating time, place and
manner of conduct by establishing permit requirements. The City charges a fee of $50 for a
special event permit as well as a $50 fee for a 1-4 Day Temporary Liquor License.
BACKGROUND
The City has received an application from Hammerheart Brewing Co. to hold a special event on
their property Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and occasionally other days of the week from 1:30
p.m. to 9:30 p.m. The special event permit will allow food truck vendors in their parking lot,
serving their customers.
Hammerheart is also requesting to hold a one day event on Saturday, August 11 from 2:00 p.m.
to 10:00 p.m. They would like to rope off an area around the front of their building by the patio.
The Public Safety Department has reviewed the applications and have signed off on the permit to
allow food vendors. Staff has reviewed the application including their plans for food truck
location. Since food service is involved, a condition is being attached to the permit requiring
food vendors to receive permission from the Anoka County Environmental Services and to
provide their state licensing information. Since liquor is involved in the one day special event,
conditions are also being attached.
RECOMMENDATION
Hammerheart’s application for a special event permit meets the requirements of the city code and
the food trucks have not been found to present any safety concerns. Therefore, staff
recommends that the council approve Resolution No. 18-93, Authorizing issuance of a Special
Event Permit. Final approval is contingent upon final review and sign off by city staff.
ATTACHMENTS

AGENDA ITEM 1E
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Michael Grochala, Community Development Director
MEETING DATE: July 23, 2018
TOPIC: Consideration of Resolution No. 18-92, Declare Intent to
Reimburse from Bond Proceeds, Lake Drive Trunk Water Main
Improvements.
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
Staff is requesting council approval to declare the City’s intent to reimburse itself from bond
proceeds for the 2018 Lake Drive Trunk Utility Project.
BACKGROUND
On February 18, 2018 the City council authorized the preparation of plans and specification for the
Lake Drive Trunk Utility Project. The project includes the extension of trunk water main between
Park Court and Marshan Lane and between Pheasant Run South and Well No. 3. The estimated
project cost is $466,000.
The project is proposed to be financed by issuance of Utility Revenue Bonds. The Internal
Revenue Code requires cities to declare their intent to reimburse project costs incurred prior to
receipt of bond proceeds. Preliminary expenditures such as architectural, engineering, surveying,
bond issuance, and similar costs are exempt from this provision. However, the declaration must
be made prior to incurring land acquisition costs or hard construction costs.
Since the City will be considering easement acquisition for the improvements, passage of the
resolution is necessary to ensure reimbursement from bond proceeds, if necessary.
Approval of the Intent to Bond resolution does not obligate the City to issue bonds. Bond
issuance for this project may be combined with financing for the 2018 Street Reconstruction
project utilities.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is recommending adoption of Resolution No. 18-92.

CERTAIN EXPENDITURES FROM THE PROCEEDS
OF BONDS TO BE ISSUED BY THE CITY
(Lake Drive Trunk Utilities)
WHEREAS, the Internal Revenue Service has issued Treas. Reg. § 1.150-2 (the
“Reimbursement Regulations”) providing that proceeds of tax-exempt bonds used to reimburse
prior expenditures will not be deemed spent unless certain requirements are met; and
WHEREAS, the City expects to incur certain expenditures that may be financed temporarily
from sources other than bonds, and reimbursed from the proceeds of a tax-exempt bond;
WHEREAS, the City has determined to make this declaration of official intent
(“Declaration”) to reimburse certain costs from proceeds of bonds in accordance with the
Reimbursement Regulations.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF
LINO LAKES AS FOLLOWS:
1. The City proposes to undertake trunk utility improvements from Park Court
to Marshan Lane (the “Project”).
2. The City reasonably expects to reimburse the expenditures made for certain
costs of the Project from the proceeds of bonds in an estimated maximum principal amount
of $466,000. All reimbursed expenditures will be capital expenditures, costs of issuance of
the bonds, or other expenditures eligible for reimbursement under Section 1.150-2(d)(3) of
the Reimbursement Regulations.
3. This Declaration has been made not later than 60 days after payment of any
original expenditure to be subject to a reimbursement allocation with respect to the proceeds of
bonds, except for the following expenditures: (a) costs of issuance of bonds; (b) costs in an amount
not in excess of $100,000 or 5 percent of the proceeds of an issue; or (c) “preliminary expenditures”
up to an amount not in excess of 20 percent of the aggregate issue price of the issue or issues that
finance or are reasonably expected by the City to finance the project for which the preliminary
expenditures were incurred. The term “preliminary expenditures” includes architectural,
engineering, surveying, bond issuance, and similar costs that are incurred prior to commencement of
acquisition, construction or rehabilitation of a project, other than land acquisition, site preparation,
and similar costs incident to commencement of construction.
4. This Declaration is an expression of the reasonable expectations of the City based
on the facts and circumstances known to the City as of the date hereof. The anticipated original
expenditures for the Project and the principal amount of the bonds described in paragraph 2 are
consistent with the City’s budgetary and financial circumstances. No sources other than
proceeds of bonds to be issued by the City are, or are reasonably expected to be, reserved,
allocated on a long-term basis, or otherwise set aside pursuant to the City’s budget or financial
policies to pay such Project expenditures.
5. This Declaration is intended to constitute a declaration of official intent for
purposes of the Reimbursement Regulations.
Adopted by the Council of the City of Lino Lakes this 23th day of July, 2018.

Code Chapter 1007 Related to Parking Regulations for Accessory
Outdoor Dining or Seating Facilities
*Council may vote to dispense with full reading of ordinance
* Roll call vote is required for adoption of the ordinance
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
Staff is requesting City Council consideration of the 2nd reading of Ordinance No. 09-18,
amending City Code Chapter 1007 as it relates to accessory outdoor dining or seating facilities.
The 1st reading was approved by City Council on July 9, 2018.
BACKGROUND
Several restaurants in Lino Lakes have approached City staff regarding outdoor dining or
seating facilities in regards to parking requirements. The concern is that these restaurants would
be unable to add an outdoor seating area due to the current ordinance requiring that they
provide additional parking spaces. The issue discussed is whether these restaurants would be
able to add outdoor seating without the need for additional parking. Ordinance No. 09-18
amends the current city ordinance regarding accessory outdoor dining or seating facilities, and
parking requirements.

parking will be provided, alleviate or prevent congestion of the public right-of-way and to
promote the safety and general welfare of the public.
Section 2. Amendment. Lino Lakes City Code Section 1007.054(2)(h) is hereby amended as
follows:
(h) When the outdoor dining/seating is accessory to a restaurant, additional off-street parking
shall be required, pursuant to the requirements set forth in §1007.044 of this Ordinance, based
on the additional seating provided by the outdoor area.
(h) Additional Off-Street Parking:
1. For accessory outdoor dining/seating areas that are 500 square feet or less in size,
no additional off-street parking spaces shall be required.
2. For accessory outdoor dining/seating areas that are greater than 500 square feet in
size, one (1) additional parking space for every 100 square feet of outdoor dining
area in excess of the first 500 square feet shall be required.
Section 3. Effective Date. This Ordinance shall be effective from and after its passage and
publication according to the Lino Lakes City Charter.

INTRODUCTION
Staff is requesting City Council consideration of the 2nd reading of Ordinance No. 10-18,
amending City Code Chapter 1007 as it relates to commercial kennel and commercial stable
performance standards. The 1st reading was approved by City Council on July 9, 2018.
BACKGROUND
City staff received a complaint that a property has too many horses than permitted based on the
zoning and acreage. The subject site has operated as a horse training and selling facility for the
past 20 years and is considered a commercial stable under the zoning ordinance. The issue
discussed is whether commercial stables should be allowed more animal units than standard
rural zoning district uses. There are multiple commercial horse stables in Lino Lakes.

kennels and commercial stables.
