WS — Item 1
WORK SESSION STAFF REPORT
Work Session Item No. 1
Date: July 23, 2012
To: City Council
From: Michael Grochala
Re: Charter Exempt Zones
Background
The City Charter Commission has requested a formal response from the City Council
providing the Council's rationale for including exempt zones as part of the proposed
Council Charter amendment rather than having it changed by ordinance. This request
appears to originate from the Charter Commission's response to the Council amendment
submitted to the commission in 2008.
In 1993 the City Charter was amended, by ordinance, to establish three areas within the
City that would be exempt from the public improvement provisions of Chapter 8 of the
Charter. Instead those areas would be governed by the public improvement provisions of
Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 429. These areas which surrounded the 35W interchange,
35E interchange and the Lake Drive/Hodgson Road intersection were identified as the
city's primary economic development locations.
Under the provisions of Chapter 429 the city can specially assess the cost of public
improvement to benefitting properties. However the improvement process is not subject
to the neighborhood petition process or referendum requirements of the charter.
As proposed in the 2008 amendment and included in the 2012 City Council amendment
the charter exempt zones are eliminated as part of a comprehensive rewrite of the
Charter's Chapter 8. The overriding premise discussed in 2008 was that if the
neighborhood petition process was refined and the election requirement eliminated than
there was less importance placed on the exempt zones.
In 2008 the Charter Commission was agreeable to amending the charter, by ordinance, to
eliminate the exempt zones, but not the other amendment provisions. This appears to be
the same case today.
Staff and attorney Steve Bubul were present at the May 31, 2012 meeting and addressed
this issue. As noted at the meeting the city submitted a comprehensive rewrite of the
chapter and is not agreeable to a piecemeal amendment process. Removal of the exempt
zones, absent other proposed changes, would result in the entire city being governed by
the existing charter provisions. Given the repeated discussions to change the existing
charter language it does not appear this would be in the best interests of the city.
Council Direction
None required. The council may wish to formalize a response to the commission
regarding this request.

14 Public Safety Director John Swenson; City Clerk Julie Bartell
15
16 1. Zoning Ordinance Amendment — Industrial Zoning Districts- City Planner
17 Bengtson reported that the City engaged a consultant to review the industrial zoning
18 regulations and ensure consistency with the 2030 Comprehensive Plan and ensure the
19 quality of future industrial development. He introduced Kendra Lindahl of Landform
20 who conducted the review and prepared the proposed ordinance amendments.
21
22 Ms. Lindahl explained the process used to coordinate the ordinance changes including
111 23 meetings with staff for background and discussion of how to implement the city's
24 Comprehensive Plan vision and address non - conforming situations, keeping in mind the
25 city's short and long term goals. She noted that the council expressed interest in
26 receiving information on outside storage in industrial districts, including what other cities
27 do; she explained that generally such storage is accepted as an interim use, is a typical use
28 and she has included recommendations on allowing the use with increased setback and
29 screening requirements and not within the gateway zone (adjacent to the interstate).
30
31 Regarding screening and setback, Council Member Roeser expressed some concern that
32 the requirements enforced between industrial properties could be an extra and
33 unnecessary expense to business owners. The mayor suggested that the change to allow
34 outside storage at all is business friendly and he recognizes the need to have some
35 protections included; perhaps there could be some language that allows consideration
36 based on the situation. Ms Lindahl added that it is not unusual to have the requirements
37 and there are certainly a lot of different uses that could occur. Community Development
38 Director Grochala expressed some concern about inequities that could occur but staff can
39 try to develop some language for council consideration; he noted that the screening
40 language is included in the landscaping ordinance. Also noted was concern about
41 creating a cluttered look by adding barriers and screens and also a definition that includes
42 a limit of 24 -hours on storage.
43
44 2. Establishment of Cartway, Otter Lake Drive — Community Development
4110 45 Director Grochala recalled the city's receipt of a petition for a cartway submitted by
1
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION July 2, 2012
DRAFT
46 Adam Johnson, 2055 Otter Lake Drive. The council was required under statute to set a
47 hearing date. Mr. Grochala reviewed the hearing process as set forth in his report and
48 also reviewed a map of the proposed vicinity and cartway. It appears from everything
49 staff has seen that Mr. Johnson meets those minimum statutory requirements for
50 establishment of a cartway. The next question then becomes damages. The city has
51 escrowed funds from Mr. Johnson for the city expenses. Damages to other landowners is
52 another consideration and while there is not a lot of guidance on the subject included in
53 state statute, Mr. Grochala suggests that it could be construed like an easement situation.
54 The question is whether or not there is any reduction in property value with the addition
55 of the cartway. The council may receive appraisal information presented at the hearing.
56 The mayor confirmed that, if the statutory threshold for a cartway is met in this case, it is
57 not a case of if but how. Mr. Grochala noted the third area of consideration as
58 maintenance - would Mr. Johnson have the same maintenance responsibility /costs as the
59 current owners? Mr. Grochala noted that the City Attorney will assist the council in the
60 hearing process and added that it is within the council's prerogative to table the item as
61 long as the public hearing is opened. He also added that the involved parties have been
62 informed that they may provide a brief on their position to the city before the hearing.
63 Also council members could visit the site if that would be helpful.
64
65 2a. Proposal on Otter Lake Road — Community Development Director Grochala
66 introduced Bruce Miller, MFC Properties, owner of the northeast quadrant property. Mr.
67 Miller noted that since the benefit appraisal for the Otter Lake Road improvements came
68 in under estimate and since he'd like to see the improvements go ahead so that
69 development in the area can proceed, he is offering to cover the difference as a loan. His
70 company is in jeopardy of losing a client interested in a business in the quadrant because
71 the process is not moving.
72
73 The mayor noted that he understands that the analysis came in low but also recognizes
74 that it is simply an estimate and the real value is what people will pay. He asked if
75 obtaining another appraisal would be appropriate. Mr. Grochala noted that there is the
76 possibility of scaling back the improvements to cover the gap of $80,000 but reducing the
77 scope could also reduce the benefit. He sees a stalemate position; the appraisal was done
78 by a well recommended organization so he doesn't see the benefit of a_redo. He's heard
79 Mr. Miller's offer to finance the gap but that would leave assessment questions. Mr.
80 Grochala said he would intend to further explore the opportunity with the city attorney.
81 The other alternative he mentioned is to prepare a tax levy covering the gap, a step that
82 hasn't been used by the city in the past.
83
84 When Council Member Roeser asked if the developer(s) could go ahead and do the
85 improvements on their own, Mr. Grochala explained that there are property acquisitions
86 questions involved. Mr. Miller discussed the option of changing the location of the
87 proposed bus park and ride. Mr. Grochala suggested that the situation seems to present a
88 struggle no matter how you look at it. The council directed staff to continue discussions
89 with the involved parties and see what can be worked out.

91 3. Traffic Signal Project Update — Community Development Director Grochala
92 noted that TKDA is finishing up the plans and specifications for the projects and approval
93 requests for the different elements of the project will proceed starting in July and
94 culminating with construction time in the fall (functional lights in winter). The city
95 engineer is speaking with residents and businesses impacted by either acquisition or other
96 elements including utilities, and responding to residents' questions as necessary. Mr.
97 Grochala explained the plans to deal with right of way at Main Street and Lake Drive and
98 how the business will be impacted.
99
100 4. Zoning Ordinance Amendment — Landscaping Standards — City Planner
101 Bengtson noted that this is not the first time the council has seen this language as it was
102 reviewed as part of the Comprehensive Plan process; the language was completed
103 previously and reviewed by the council and the Planning & Zoning Board. Staff has
104 pared down language that was more suggestion than material in order to reach a standard
105 of compliance that is clear. There are still five distinct areas for landscaping: canopy
106 coverage, foundation and open area, buffering and screening requirements and boulevard
107 trees.
108
109 Council Member Roeser suggested that there's been a trend to go more "wild" in
110 landscaping but he sees that being more appropriate in some areas than others; do the
111 standards address that? Mr. Bengtson noted that separate guidelines will be maintained
112 that indicate types of plantings that are acceptable, basically though for commercial and
113 industrial, anything in the front is expected to be more manicured. The intent isn't to
114 dictate what people will plant in their yards; it's more directed to new development.
115
116 The ordinance will be considered for first reading at the next council meeting.
117
118 5. Charter Commission Budget Request - The mayor suggested that the
119 Commission has about $1,200 left in their 2012 budget. He isn't clear from reading their
120 communication why the funding is requested. He attended the commission meeting
121 when this was discussed and determination that they would require eight hours of
122 attorney work seemed to be arbitrary and the amount seems extensive; it would more
123 make sense to get an estimate of the legal costs.
124
125 Council Member Roeser added that a bid would be appropriate when considering
126 expending public funds. Also he is concerned about granting funds to a group that he
127 believes misappropriated funds in the past. He also doesn't understand the need for
128 opposing attorneys and suggests that the commission and the council should be getting an
129 open and fair opinion from the same attorney; to act otherwise is seeking a differing
130 opinion and makes for an awkward and more costly process.
131
132 Council Member Rafferty expressed that he is confused about the amount being
133 requested. There is a budget in place not fully expended.
134
CITY COUNCIL WORK SESSION July 2, 2012
DRAFT
135 The council concurred that both staff and an attorney were present at the last commission
136 meeting to provide information and answer questions on the city council's proposal.
137 Council Member Roeser pointed out that much of the legal involvement comes in
138 preparing the wording for the amendment and that is the responsibility of the council.
139
140 There was no support indicated by the City Council to provide additional funds to the
141 Charter Commission at this time. The council is aware that the commission has funds
142 remaining in their 2012 budget.
143
144 6. Revised Personnel Policy — Administrator Karlson distributed and reviewed
145 survey information indicating what other cities (similar in size to Lino Lakes) offer in the
146 area of tuition reimbursement. The mayor suggested an annual incentive of $2,000
147 including tuition, fees and books with a requirement of a "C" or better and a percentage
148 of 50 %. Council Member Stoesz suggested language that requires a payback if the
149 employee leaves within two years; Administrator Karlson clarified that the proposed
150 policy would require repayment if leaving within a year. It was clarified that courses
151 required to maintain licensure or accreditation related to job duties are paid one hundred
152 percent by the city.
153
154 Administrator Karlson also noted that the council previously expressed interest in
155 understanding what sections of policy are covered by collective bargaining. In response
156 he has provided in his report an index that highlights those sections.
157
158 Administrator Karlson will include the updated information in the policy and will bring
159 the revised personnel policy to the council for consideration of approval at the next
160 council meeting.
161
162 7. Social Media Update — There was no written report. Administrator Karlson
163 remarked that the key focus of the discussion at this point has been development of a
164 communications plan for critical incidents. The city's emergency management plan is
165 already in place to cover disaster situations. He basically sees three different levels:
166 using social media (i.e. Facebook, See /Click/Fix) to communicate on a regular basis
167 about items of interest in the community; a critical incident communication system that
168 will get information out quickly; the highest level would be the emergency management
169 plan. The mayor suggested that the city may want to stay on top of advancements in
170 technology that are occurring continually; at minimum an annual review is required. It
171 will be important to give residents the opportunity to participate in the city's social media.
172 Council Member Roeser suggested coordinating involvement with the school district or
173 through the election process.

61 roadway deicing program. Brining is a proactive activity to prepare roads before storms and a process
62 that reduces costs as well as chemicals. The city has been awarded a grant that will cover about forty
63 percent of the cost of equipment for the program. In order to receive the grant, authorization to enter

86
87 6A, Public Hearing, Resolution No. 12 -59, Establishing a Cartway — Community Development
88 Director Grochala explained that the city received a petition from Mr. Adam Johnson, 2055 Otter
89 Lake Drive, to establish a cartway easement to provide access to a landlocked parcel that he owns.
90 The process for a cartway is established under Minnesota Statutes and provides that the city council
2
COUNCIL MINUTES July 9, 2012
DRAFT
91 shall establish a cartway if certain criteria is met. The city process has included the calling of a public
• 92 hearing by resolution that also included an order for Mr. Johnson to personally serve the resolution
93 upon the owners /occupants of the land. Affidavits of service have been provided. Mr. Johnson has
94 also provided escrow funds for city costs in the process.
95
96 Community Development Director Grochala then outlined the three issues to be addressed: meeting
97 the threshold requirements of the statute, where the cartway should be located, and
98 damages /maintenance.
99
100 City Attorney Langel noted that the council should hear from both sides, petitioner first and then the
101 homeowner association. There may be rebuttal time allowed afterward. The council will then decide
102 how to proceed.
103
104 Mayor Reinert commented that a position paper had been submitted by the homeowners association
105 that seems to associate this process with eminent domain. He clarified that none of the proceedings
106 this evening have to do with such eminent domain and he doesn't want the issue clouded with that
107 talk. This involves private land and private parties and the law dictates the city council's
108 involvement.
109
110 Joe Barnett, attorney for Mr. Johnson. He believes the homeowners' association brief is misapplied
111 in its statements. It is clear that the threshold requirements are met in this case. Mr. Johnson owns a
112 parcel of property that he doesn't have access to from a public roadway. They claim that there is
a13 reasonable access but that is not what the statute requires. The second issue is the proper location of
114 the cartway. Mr. Johnson has indicated on a map a red line that shows the distance that he would
115 like to have established as a cartway (submitted for the record). The road already exists there and Mr.
116 Johnson is supposed to have access by a previous deed associated settlement agreement anyway (copy
117 of settlement agreement distributed). Regarding damages Mr. Johnson's position is that there are no
118 damages to the homeowners as there will be no impediment to their use. Apparently anyone besides
119 Mr. Johnson is currently allowed to use the roadway. Mr. Johnson has done everything possible to try
120 and resolve this without this action. The use requested is minimal. How he would use his land is
121 irrelevant. Mr. Barnett added that he has spoken with a member of the homeowners association and
122 there has been no vote of the association on their position.
123
124 Adam Johnson, 2055 Otter Lake Drive, noted the cartway petition that he has submitted, his right to
125 access his land and his request to the council to uphold his right. He has tried to work this out
126 including through mediation. The bridge has been open to everyone but him. He owns property and
127 has maintained it well. He noted the docking easement that is in place. He has caused no damages by
128 use of the bridge and anticipates none in the future. He asks the council to uphold his rights and
129 establish the cartway.
130
131 Dave Snyder, attorney representing the Oak Brook Peninsula Homeowners Association. He has heard
132 the mayor note the reference to eminent domain and asked if the city attorney is advising that he not
133 be allowed to reference the limitations created by the recently enacted statute regarding eminent
134 domain? The Minnesota Court of Appeals in 2007 indicated that the authority to create a cartway is
.35 an exercise of eminent domain authority. Attorney Langel responded that no one is directing the
3
COUNCIL MINUTES July 9, 2012
DRAFT
136 argument although there may be disagreement on the implications of the eminent domain law.
137 Attorney Langel suggested that the mayor is simply interested in focusing on cartway consideration.
138 Mr. Snyder indicated that his attorney's brief was submitted this afternoon and he has received no
139 opinion from the city attorney on it. The mayor reiterated that he doesn't believe that there is any
140 taking of land by the city.
141
142 Attorney Snyder requested that the cartway petition be denied for several reasons. There is no
143 compelling need for creation of a cartway. The property to which access is sought is part of a single
144 parcel. They believe the parcel is being accessed now and historically accessed without the bridge. It
145 may not be the most convenient access but there is access being used. Another approach and perhaps
146 the most practical would be construction of a bridge by the applicant. Another concern is that this
147 request is inconsistent with the limitation on establishment of cartways by cities; cities formerly could
148 create cartways by public road (eminent domain) and also by establishing private cartways (for use by
149 one individual) as is proposed here today. Because it is private in this case, eminent domain is no
150 longer allowed under statute (except for town roads or ditches). The city cartway statute is not
151 incorporated into the changes to eminent domain so the allowance for cities is only for public
152 cartways. The city only has powers provided to it under statute. He suggests that there are other
153 remedies for Mr. Johnson such as the public cartway laws. Also the use proposed would further
154 accelerate the use of the property for illegal hunting. Mr. Snyder added that there is the option of
155 seeking a statutory change but that should fall to the applicant rather than the city. In the matter of
156 damages, they believe a bond should be established. In regard to the settlement agreement that has
157 been mentioned and distributed by the applicant, his clients disagree that it is germaine and that it
158 provides for access. He reminded the council that this action involves private property.
159
160 Attorney Langel noted that Outlot A (location of the road) is owned by the homeowners association
161 and he asked if the group is active. Attorney Snyder responded that he doesn't know their activity
162 level but he is aware that they met to determine that they would resist any attempts to encroach upon
163 their private property. When Attorney Langel asked for records of their meeting, Mr. Snyder said he
164 could provide them in the future and added that of the three member board, two are present this
165 evening.
166
167 Julie Jeffrey Schwartz, 2140 Otter Lake Drive. She is concerned that the applicant has not provided
168 any appraisal information on damages. The association has paid money for a professional appraisal
169 estimating damages under either a public or private taking. She understands that the statute requires
170 the council to determine damages and she noted that the council has received only the homeowners'
171 appraisal. On the question of activity of the association, they are active and have registered with the
172 Secretary of State and did meet to authorized hiring of the appraiser and attorney. She discussed the
173 question of access and noted that there is currently a high water level and even under those
174 circumstances, Mr. Johnson has been able to cross to his property and has done so numerous times.
175 He has requested the cartway for walking, a lawnmower and for a garden tractor and she suggests that
176 those things can be brought to the property through a float or a bridge over the channel. She
177 questions if roadway access is being requested because of other plans to build or practice illegal
178 activity that has occurred in the past. She noted that Mr. Johnson is a professional hunter who
179 advertises services in the northeast metro and that his very disruptive activity has and would impact
4

080 the quiet enjoyment of the area. She asks that the private nature of this property be considered and if
81 it is taken the damage appraisal submitted by the association should be considered.
182
183 Attorney Langel asked if the homeowners' association position is that the channel is not navigable.
184 Attorney Snyder responded that he understands that the position is that parts of the channel are and
185 parts are not and that the burden to the applicant would not be great. Mr. Snyder added that if the
186 request of the applicant for access by use of ATV is accurate, then it is clear that he already has that
187 access because he is doing it now even under high water conditions. He believes that the
188 establishment of a public cartway is discretionary by the council in this case. The mayor noted that he
189 is indifferent about the establishment but has been advised by legal counsel that if the threshold of the
190 statute is met, the establishment isn't discretionary. Attorney Langel clarified the statutory language
191 and the presence of a navigable waterway. Ms. Schwartz noted that the definition of navigable water
192 is defined by the DNR and in the case of this channel it is not navigable because it has not been
193 dredged. She added that there is a purposefully construction hump at the head of the channel meant to
194 provide separation from the lake that also makes the pond not part of the lake.
195
196 In rebuttal, Mr. Johnson noted that the ATV on his property was driven across the bridge by Mr.
197 Melton so that he (Mr. Johnson) could access his property without police involvement. Regarding the
198 channel, most years the channel has been navigable even by large boats. He added that Rice Creek
199 Watershed District does have authority to dredge the channel also. Attorney Barnett noted the
200 settlement agreement and a clause that requires that the channel be kept navigable. He added that the
201 public taking of property assumption is not correct and therefore the appraisal submitted that is based
.02 on a public taking has no basis; it is his client's position that there are no damages in this situation.
203 Speculation of how the land will be used is irrelevant. Attorney Langel pointed out that there are two
204 elements to a question of damages — value and maintenance. Attorney Barnett responded that there is
205 an obligation for an equitable share of maintenance costs but pointed out that Mr. Johnson's use
206 would be minimal on a percentage basis.
207
208 In rebuttal, Mr. Snyder noted that the appraisal comprehensively addresses both elements — public and
209 private. Statutory predicate for this is not met and the risk of changing statute shouldn't fall to the
210 city. Attorney Langel clarified that the appraisal data seems to be based on a public taking but asked
211 if it could be refined to a private cartway.
212
213 Council Member Roeser noted the settlement agreement for dock access and asked for clarification
214 that the agreement grants access rights to Mr. Johnson. Attorney Langel indicated that he will be
215 further reviewing the document. Mr. Johnson noted that the agreement runs with the deed to his
216 home as well as all the homeowners of Otter Lake Estates.
217
218 Ms. Schwartz indicated her familiarity with the settlement agreement and explained the history. It
219 was intended for owners who already had property developed in Otter Lake Estates. Mr. Johnson's
220 parcel was not created at the time that the agreement was put together and that land in fact belonged
221 to the person granting the settlement so he couldn't have granted an easement to himself. Also the
222 settlement indicates rights to 18 plaintiffs, not parcels. Council Member Roeser pointed out that the
•223 agreement says that it runs with the property; he also believes that the easement indicates a right to a
5
COUNCIL MINUTES July 9, 2012
DRAFT
224 navigable waterway. Council Member Roeser added that he does have concern about intended uses. •
225 Ms. Schwartz argued that Mr. Johnson's parcel did not exist at the time of the settlement.
226
227 Council Member O'Donnell noted the hunting use that has been mentioned; that is covered by city
228 ordinance so it isn't pertinent to the cartway question. Attorney Snyder pointed out that the question
229 isn't personal hunting but rather professional guide hunting, a service that Mr. Johnson offers.
230 Regarding the settlement agreement, Council Member O'Donnell asked if there is an easement in
231 place? Attorney Langel responded that the settlement agreement hasn't been verified but it appears
232 there is an agreement in place; it has been suggested that the easement provided for in the settlement
233 has never been recorded however.
234
235 Council Member Rafferty asked for a review of claimed damages versus the amount of use claimed
236 by Mr. Johnson. Mr. Snyder responded that statute directs consideration of damages and his clients
237 have followed an accepted process for appraisal by a professional appraiser.
238
239 The mayor asked that the council discuss the threshold element — has the statutory threshold been
240 met? The council indicated that they have determined that the waterway is or could be navigable.
241 On location, it was verified that 293.7 feet is the length of the cartway requested to the nearest point
242 that access is possible (that is a straight line map measurement however and so the exact distance
243 hasn't actually been established — a point of entry has been established). It was pointed out that there
244 are metal stakes in the ground that would have to be removed. Attorney Langel noted that there is
245 also the question of dimension. Mr. Johnson said that statutes indicate a width of no less than 33 feet
246 and he'd prefer the area off the road to be 30 feet. Council Member Stoesz suggested that there may •
247 be some indication of size in the easement agreement and that in turn could be compared to the
248 request and perhaps used to assist with determining damages. Attorney Barnett asked about the
249 ability for Mr. Johnson to access the property for his work and measurement.
250
251 The mayor suggested a discussion of damages and maintenance; what should be considered in that
252 discussion? Council Member O'Donnell remarked that the appraisal data submitted is for the full
253 length of Otter Lake Road. Attorney Snyder responded that the appraisal includes damages in gross
254 and net (including sub parts). Council Member Roeser suggested that if Mr. Johnson is granted use of
255 a private road, he should participate in the maintenance of the road. Mr. Johnson said he agreed in the
256 past to pay current and future maintenance. Council Member Roeser suggested sometimes it's the
257 fear of the unknown that cause issues or concerns; would Mr. Johnson be opposed to covenants or the
258 like attached to the situation that would calm fears. Mr. Johnson suggested that use isn't a
259 consideration in the cartway statute so he'd prefer not to add any conditions. The mayor indicated
260 that he would intend to somehow address uses and conditions as part of an action on the matter; the
261 city attorney clarified that the statute doesn't provide for such. Council Member Roeser suggested
262 that a property owner could certainly voluntarily accept conditions.
263
264 Attorney Snyder reviewed his clients' position. He believes that this evening's review and discussion
265 clearly identifies this as an eminent domain related action and he doesn't believe that the city would
266 want to overstep current statute. There are other solutions besides this action to deal with the
267 disagreements between neighbors. Conditions or not the issue is imposition on the property owners'
268 rights. He recommends that the city call for a posting of a bond in the matter as would be called for !

069 under eminent domain. They request that the city deny the petition and allow the petitioner to pursue
70 other avenues if he chooses. If the city were to grant the petition, damages must be considered.
271
272 Attorney Barnett noted that it is clear that Mr. Johnson has met the statutory threshold for granting of
273 the cartway. On the question of damages, the statute doesn't require that there be damages set and in
274 this case Mr. Johnson already has an easement and he shouldn't be exposed to any damages. Future
275 maintenance costs will be a consideration.
276
277 The mayor said he would intend to see the public hearing closed and for the council to receive more
278 information on outstanding questions and have another discussion in the future. Council Member
279 Roeser asked Mr. Johnson if he will be willing to put some limitations on future use with the
280 understanding that could have a bearing on damages now and in the future; he recommends that the
281 parties discuss that aspect. The mayor commented that he is indifferent about the action; the council
282 must drill down using the facts. He is sensitive to the privacy of that neighborhood but he doesn't
283 believe this is an issue of eminent domain (he reviewed the process that the statute dictates the
284 council must follow to consider the petition). He feels there is a value involved here; the
285 neighborhood is secluded and this would be an imposition.
286
287 Council Member Rafferty moved to close the public hearing. Council Member Stoesz seconded the
288 motion. Motion carried on a unanimous voice vote.
289
290 The item will be considered next at the August work session. The council will want more
‘11291 information on the settlement agreement and its easement implications. Also the council would like
292 to understand zoning and land use for the area in question. Attorney Langel said it would be helpful to
293 know the exact point of entry to the land. Clarification of the dock or lack thereof is requested.
294
295 6B) 1st Reading of Ordinance No. 07 -12, Amending Section 8, Industrial Districts of the Zoning
296 Ordinance — Planner Bengtson explained text amendment before the council. The city engaged the
297 assistance of Landform to review the industrial district zoning language to ensure standards are
298 consistent with the 2030 Comprehensive Plan as well as the goal of continued quality development.
299 The ordinance has been reviewed by both the Planning & Zoning Board and the Economic
300 Development Advisory Committee and both have recommended approval. The city council reviewed
301 the language at their last work session.
302
303 Kendra Lindahl, Landform, noted the goals of updating this ordinance were to simplify the language
304 and to move more specific performance standards into the landscape ordinance. At the work session
305 discussion the council did raise questions about how to deal with properties abutting other industrial
306 property. In working with staff, it is felt that the way to provide flexibility in those screening
307 standards so that individual situations can be considered is within the landscaping regulations. For
308 outside storage, the language in this ordinance has not changed.
309
310 Council Member Roeser moved to approve the first reading of Ordinance No. 07 -12 as presented.
311 Council Member O'Donnell seconded the motion. Motion carried on a unanimous voice vote.

Liability Insurance for Certain Blue Heron Days Events
INTRODUCTION
The City is annually requested from the Blue Heron Days Committee and Lino Lakes

Business Expo and Lino Lakes Ambassador coronation.
BACKGROUND
City staff and League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust (LMCIT) staff have reviewed all of

Based on the discussion with LMCIT, the City would be expected to assume the liability
coverage for the parade, ambassador coronation, and business expo and Bingo, in consideration
of the host group, existence of liability insurance and event location. These activities are not
excluded activities under the City's current liability insurance; therefore, they are covered
without any additional cost to the City. The increased involvement of the City providing
liability insurance may result in an increased exposure to claims against the City for these
covered events and the festival as a whole. Staff has requested a certificate of insurance from
P22
P23
the other groups hosting activities as well as being an additional insured for activities occurring
on City property.
The City has, in past years, waived event and parade permits for non - profit activities, such as
the parade, 5K and business expo as its in -kind donation to the community festival. Because of
the change of location to Lino Park, the Public Safety Director is requiring a police officer be
present on Lake Drive at Lino Park from noon — 4 p.m. on Saturday, August 18. The Blue
Heron Days Committee is requesting a waiver of the fee for an on -duty officer for those four
hours.

Encompass Digital Media, operators of the satellite farm at 6221 Holly Drive are in the process
of securing additional contracts that would necessitate expansion of the facility. While
finalizing the details on the expansion plan, they have applied to remove a large portion of a
earth berm on the south side of the site and do some preliminary grading work on the rest of the
site.
SCHEDULE OF ACTIONS:
Planning & Zoning Board
City Council (Public Hearing)
Action Deadline
July 11, 2012
July 23, 2012
September 1, 2012 (may be extended)
BACKGROUND
The amount of material proposed for removal from the site is approximately 20,000 cubic
yards, with the material being hauled south from the site on Holly Drive and then the majority
east on County Road J /Ash Street then out of the city. Less than ten percent of the material
would be taken west on County Road J /Ash Street. A grading plan prepared by ICECOR dated
June 28, 2012, identifies the site layout, proposed excavation area, silt fence locations, and
existing wetlands has been provided for staff review.
The applicant estimates that it will take approximately 1,200 truck trips to remove the
excavated material from their property. The proposed haul route for the excavated materials
from the Encompass excavation site is south on Holly Drive and either east or west on County
Road J. Per the applicant, the vast majority of the truck trips will go east on County Road J to
35E; however, there will be approximately 20 trips that will travel west on County Road J.
A grading plan for the earth materials excavation site was provided by the applicant's engineer.
The plan identifies the existing and proposed contours for the site, proposed drainage patterns,
and locations for silt fence and hay bale check dams for erosion control purposes. The City
will conduct regular inspections of the site to ensure that all NPDES General Permit
requirements are being met.
The wetlands on the site have been delineated and are shown on the grading plan submitted by
the applicant. Wetlands will not be affected by the excavation or grading.
P26
The grading plan and conditional use penult has been submitted to the Rice Creek Watershed
District (RCWD) for their review and approval.
A conditional use permit may be issued if all the criteria have been met as defined in the
resolution of this report.
Section 3, Subdivision 11 of the zoning ordinance for Earth Moving and Land Reclamation
provides a list of conditions as a prerequisite that the City may use for granting a permit. Those
conditions that the City may deem necessary are as follows:
1. Properly fence any pit or excavation, and barricade entrances to prevent the
general public from depositing garbage or refuse.
The site is fenced and occupied by the facilities' staff.
2. 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.
There will be no pits and excavation shall be staged to prevent large banks.
3. 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.
Again, no open pits are proposed for this project /site.
4. 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.
There is not excavation below the surrounding grade, and the potential
development of the site will not be diminished.
5. 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.
All fill used on the site will be inspected to determine that it meets city
standards.
6. Require that all decomposable material, or other unsuitable foundation material,
be removed from an area before deposition of fill begins.
All construction will be done on suitable fill materials.
7. Prepare a site plan showing existing and proposed grade elevations and effect of
storm water drainage on adjacent areas.
The submitted plans show the existing and proposed grade elevations as
well as drainage directions.
8. Specify a time when the excavation or land reclamation project shall be
completed.
The project is proposed to be completed within a 3 week period (weather
permitting) after approval by the City Council.
P27
9. 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 storm water management and pollution
prevention plan.
This will be a condition of approval for the request.
10. 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.
A Site Performance Agreement shall be required to outline financial
securities and an appropriate escrow deposit to cover inspections.
11. Implement the tree preservation plan.
There is no tree preservation plan for the site as there are not significant
trees within the grading area.
12. 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.
The proposed removal will not exceed 25,000 cubic yards and therefore a
• neighborhood meeting is unnecessary.
13. 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.
A Site Performance Agreement shall be required to outline fmancial
securities and an appropriate escrow deposit to cover inspections.
14. Other conditions deemed appropriate to the application by the permitting
authority.
Any other conditions appropriate for this request will be added to the
approval of the conditional use permit.
The City has sent a public hearing notice to surrounding home owners to inform them of the
S proposed Conditional Use Permit, but due to the timelines the applicant is facing, the public
hearing will need to be held at the City Council on July 23, 2012. The mailed notice indicated
both the City Council and Planning and Zoning Board meetings so that neighbors may attend
either or both. Staff recommends that the Planning and Zoning Board allow public comment
even without the official public hearing.
P28
The Site Performance Agreement outlines the requirements of the project and establishes
financial security requirements for the project.
RECOlVIlVIENDATION
Staff and the Planning and Zoning Board recommend approval of the Conditional Use Permit
with the conditions included in Resolution Number 12 -68.

INDUSTRIAL ZONING DISTRICT STANDARDS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE 2030
COMPRHENSIVE PLAN
Section 1 Findings
Section 2, Subdivision 1 of the Zoning Ordinance requires consideration of possible adverse effects of a
proposed zoning amendment and that the judgment of a proposed amendment to the Zoning Ordinance
shall be based upon, but not limited to, the following factors:
1. The proposed action has been considered in relation to the specific policies and provisions of, and
has been found to be consistent with, the official City Comprehensive Plan.
The purpose of this amendment is to ensure that the industrial standards of the city are consistent with
the 2030 Comprehensive Plan, the city's vision goals and policies, and are appropriate for each type of
use.
2. The proposed use is or will be compatible with present and future land uses of the area.
The changes contained within this amendment will increase the compatibility between present and
future land uses.
3. The proposed use conforms to all performance standards contained herein.
This ordinance will reflect the goals of the comprehensive plan and will establish performance
standards for industrial development within the city.

TO: Michael Grochala, Community Development Director
FROM: Kendra Lindahl, Landform
DATE: July 3, 2012 for the July 9th City Council Meeting
RE: Update to Industrial Zoning District Standards
BackGround
Landform was asked by the City of Lino Lakes to review the existing Industrial Zoning district
standards in Section 8 of the Zoning Ordinance to ensure that the ordinance standards were
consistent with the recently adopted 2030 Comprehensive Plan, that allowed uses were consistent
with the City vision, goals and policies and that the development standards were appropriate for the
different uses.
We have reviewed the 2030 Lino Lakes Comprehensive Plan, the Zoning Ordinance dated October
2011 and the Redevelopment Task Force Workbook. Additionally, prior to preparing these
recommendations, we met with staff to understand the issues identified previously by the City (staff,
Commissioners and Council members) and we spoke with site selectors and developers to better
understand how the Zoning Ordinance standards could affect their decision to locate in a
community.
Summary of July 2, 2012 City Council Work Session
At the July 2nd work Session, the City Council questioned why screening would be required between
industrial properties. Staff indicated that the recommendation is included because there are many
different types of uses allowed in the industrial district and outside storage should be screened from
any adjacent landowner. The City Council directed staff to review the draft language to consider
changes to allow some discretion for screening between industrial properties.
Following the City Council work session, staff reviewed the ordinance language and is
recommending that this screening flexibility be provided in the landscape ordinance section (Section
3, Subd. 4 of the Zoning Ordinance). The Industrial District language for outside storage is drafted to
read:
1. Open and outdoor storage (not outdoor sales lots) as an accessory use provided that:
a. The designated storage area shall comply with all building setback requirements
for the district. Outside storage is prohibited between the principal structure and
any public right -of -way.

b. The storage area is landscaped and screened from view of adjacent uses and
public rights -of -way via a fence and greenbelt planting strip, in accordance with
Section 3, Subd. 4. Q. 6 of this Ordinance.
c. The entire storage area is fenced and secured in an appropriate manner.
d. The storage area is blacktopped or concrete surfaced, unless an alternative wear -
resistant material is determined by the City Engineer to be suitable to control dust
and drainage and is specifically approved by the City Council.
e. The storage area does not take up parking space or loading space as required for
conformity to this Ordinance and is not located in the front yard.
f. The property shall not abut I -35W or 1 -35E.
g.
The ratio of storage area to building footprint shall not exceed 2.5 :1.
h. All parking, loading and truck staging activities shall occur on site. On- street
parking and loading associated with the use is prohibited.
i. Storage shall not include material considered hazardous under Federal or State
Environmental Law.
The City Council also had some discussion about whether or not to prohibit outside storage adjacent
to the interstate, but recommended that the prohibition remain as drafted.
Summary of June 13, 2012 P&Z Public Hearing
The Planning and Zoning Board held a public hearing on this item on June 13 and voted
unanimously to recommend approval with two changes:
1. Modify the draft Manufacturing definition to read as follows: "Manufacturing. An
establishment engaged in the indoor manufacturing, assembly, fabrication. packaging or
other industrial processing, primarily from previously prepared materials, or the indoor
provision of industrial services, where there are few external effects across property lines.
This term includes but is not limited to a business engaged in the processing, fabrication,
assembly, treatment, or packaging of food, textile, leather, wood, paper, chemical, plastic, or
metal products."
2. Modify the Research Laboratories definition to read as follows: "Research Laboratories. A
use engaged in research and development, testing, assembly, repair, and manufacturing.
Examples include research labs in the following industries: biotechnology, pharmaceuticals,
medical instrumentation or supplies, communications and information technology, electronics
and instrumentation, and computer hardware and software. Office, warehousing,
wholesaling. and distribution of the finished products produced at the site are allowed as part
of this use."

There was a question at the meeting about why motor fuels stations are no longer allowed in the
industrial districts. Staff noted that these types of uses are more retail uses that should be located in
commercial zoning districts with convenient road access. Site selectors for those types of
businesses are more interested in those retail sites with good access and that frees up industrial
land for true industrial uses.
There was a question about why the draft language allows outside storage adjacent to residential
and continues to prohibit it adjacent to the I- 35E/W. We noted that currently the ordinance prohibits
outside storage adjacent to residential and I- 35E/W, but allows it adjacent to residential via an IUP.
There are at least two businesses that have outside storage and the city has expressed some desire
to allow outside storage for industrial districts to be more business friendly and to bring these
existing businesses into compliance. In exchange for more opportunities for outside storage, the
City has increased the performance standards, including the setback and screening standards for
outside storage. When this issue was discussed at the staff level and at the March 14th workshop,
there was a general sense that it was important to preserve the gateway into the City along the
interstate and, therefore, outside storage would continue to be prohibited in those areas. After some
discussion, the P &Z recommended keeping the language as drafted.
Summary of March 14, 2012 Workshop
On March 14th joint Planning and Zoning Board /Economic Development Advisory Committee
meeting, we presented a summary of proposed changes to the industrial zoning district standards to
ensure consistency with the 2030 Comprehensive Plan and ensure a continuation of quality
development that meets market demand.
At that meeting, there was significant discussion about the proposed change to the outside storage
standards. While the majority seemed to be in agreement that this type of use is appropriate in
industrial districts, there were a number of concerns about screening and what constitutes effective
screening. Furthermore, while there was an acknowledgement of the importance of standards to
ensure quality development, there were also comments that the ordinance should not be so
restrictive that it discourages quality businesses from locating in Lino Lakes. Consensus was to
increase the performance standards in exchange for increased opportunities for outside storage.
Many of the concerns related to the standards in the landscape /screening standards in Section 3 of
the Zoning Ordinance. Therefore, after the meeting, staff prepared an update to those standards for
consideration at the June 13th meeting in a separate action.
Additionally, the Commissioners suggested that "Research Laboratories" be defined, so we have
prepared a definition for consideration.
The Commissioners also suggested that Kennels /Pet hotels be added as a conditional use in the
Industrial districts. Therefore, we have added "Commercial Kennels" as a conditional use in both
industrial districts subject to the same standards used elsewhere in the City Code.

Summary of Proposed Changes
•
•
•
We are recommending a number of revisions to the ordinance based on discussions with City staff
and our professional experience writing and implementing ordinances. The proposed changes have
been shown as deleted text in etrikcthrough, added text in underline in the attached document.
Background
•
In our initial meeting with City staff we discussed the City's concerns with the existing Industrial
zoning districts and begin discussion of potential changes to help the City implement their vision.
The following key issues were discussed:
• Non- conforming uses in the Industrial districts
• The challenges specific to the Light Industrial area on Lake Drive (e.g. non- conformities,
proximity to single family residential, lack of municipal sewer and water, zoning that is
inconsistent with Comprehensive Plan)
• Need to balance property owner rights with the rights of adjacent landowners
• Need to analyze the long term goals vs. short term requests
• Need to analyze tax impacts for the city as a whole
• Importance of Lake Drive as a gateway for the City
• Outside storage needs to be clearly addressed, including updated definition of outside
storage to address vehicle parking, dumpsters, display areas, etc.
It is our understanding that there were some in the City who felt that the existing ordinance may
have been overly restrictive and discouraged new businesses from locating in Lino Lakes. Our
experience shows that one of the roles of zoning is to protect property rights of existing landowners
and businesses by maintaining a standard that ensures quality and maintenance of adjacent
properties, which helps to maintain property values. My conversations with site selectors and
developers indicate that few buildings are being built on speculation. The only buildings being built
are for specific tenants and each tenant has specific locational criteria that will drive site selection
more that any zoning standards. The general consensus is that businesses are looking for land as
close to the central cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul as possible and those businesses generally
will not move out from that core until they can find land that is priced to fit their needs. The supply of
industrial land in places like Blaine is diminishing, which will make and in Lino Lakes more
appealing. Throughout the metropolitan area, performance standards have been increased and
businesses seem to understand this baseline expectation has increased over what might have been
acceptable 30 years ago. None of site selectors I spoke to cited Lino Lakes as having an ordinance
that was too restrictive, but all noted the importance of flexibility for users.
Proposed Revisions
One of the significant changes relates to the general format of the Zoning Ordinance. It is our intent
to make the Industrial district standards clearer with these updates. However, it should be noted an
update to Section 3 (general performance standards) will be required to supplement these updates.
The key changes proposed in the LI and GI districts are as follows:
Revisions to Industrial District Standards (Section 8) 4
July 9, 2012
•
•
•
•

P80
•
• Eliminated motor fuel stations as an allowed use in both the LI and GI zoning districts. We
believe that these users should be located on commercial property with convenient access.
This will free up the remaining Industrial and for true industrial uses.
• Added new permitted uses, such as research laboratories and trade /business schools in both
LI and GI and food processing in GI. This is reflective of the current economy and is
consistent with the intent of these zoning districts.
• Made accessory indoor retail, rental or service activities an accessory use rather than a
conditional use permit. This provides more flexibility for landowners and eliminates the time -
consuming conditional use permit for these accessory and incidental uses.
• Eliminated redundant standards for conditional uses. If the standard is addressed in the
general performance standards section of the Zoning Ordinance or the Building Code, there
is no reason to repeat those standards and, therefore, they have been eliminated. We
understand that staff plans a future update of the general performance standards in Section
3 of the Zoning Ordinance as well.
• Added Mini - Storage as a conditional use in the LI district (it was already a conditional use in
the GI district). This type of use is commonly located in the light industrial zoning districts
and would be compatible with other allowed uses.
• Added Commercial Kennels as a conditional use in both the LI and GI districts, subject to the
same standards used elsewhere in the City Code.
• A number of changes were made to outside storage standards (for outside storage as an
accessory use). These changes will allow outside storage accessory to the principal use as
an option for more properties in the Industrial zoning districts, but will increase the
performance standards for outside storage:
o Outside storage areas must be completely enclosed in a fenced area and this area
must comply with the structure setbacks for the district. There are currently no
setback requirements for outside storage areas.
o Outside storage may now be allowed adjacent to residential properties, parks,
schools, and businesses provided they meet the structure setback, buffering and
other performance standards. The only prohibition that remains in place is abutting
interstates, and abutting will no longer mean across a right of way.
o Setbacks from residential will be based on the land use classification in the 2030
Comprehensive Plan rather than the Zoning Map classification.
o The ratio of outside storage area to building footprint has been eliminated in the GI
district and reduced from 3.5:1 to 2.5:1 in the LI district.
o Outside storage as a principal use had been eliminated from LI district where it was
previously allowed as an interim use permit.
Definitions
In addition to the changes to the Industrial district uses and standards, I would suggest the following
new definitions be included in the Ordinance when the City updates Section 1, Subd. 2 (Rules and
Definitions) of the Zoning Ordinance:
Mass Transit Terminal. The property, equipment and improvements owned, used,
constructed, maintained, controlled, or operated to provide mass transportation for
passengers or to provide for the movement of people. including park -and -ride stations,
transfer stations and parking lots.

3. Manufacturing. An establishment engaged in the indoor manufacturing, assembly,
fabrication, packaging or other industrial processing, primarily from previously prepared
materials, or the indoor provision of industrial services, where there are few external effects
across property lines. This term includes but is not limited to a business engaged in the
processing, fabrication, assembly, treatment, or packaging of food, textile, leather, wood,
paper, chemical, plastic, or metal products.
Outside Storage
The
storage of goods, materials, equipment, manufactured products and similar items not fully
enclosed by a building for a period greater than 24 hours.
We note that the existing ordinance currently uses the terms "outside storage" and "exterior
storage" interchangeably. We recommend that future ordinance updates replace the term
"exterior storage" with "outside storage" for consistency and clarity.
Research Laboratories. A use engaged in research and development, testing, assembly,
repair, and manufacturing. Examples include research Tabs in the following industries:
biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, medical instrumentation or supplies, communications and
information technology, electronics and instrumentation, and computer hardware and
software. Office, warehousing, wholesaling, and distribution of the finished products
produced at the site are allowed as part of this use.
Trade or Business Schools. A specialized instructional establishment that provides on -site
training of business. commerciaL, and /or trade skills such as accounting, data processing,
and computer repair. This classification excludes establishments providing training in an
activity that is not otherwise permitted in the zone. Incidental instructional services in
conjunction with another primary use shall not be considered a business and trade school.
Wholesale Businesses /Showrooms. An establishment or place of business primarily
engaged in selling and /or distributing merchandise to retailers; to industrial, commercial,
institutional, or professional business users, or to other wholesalers; or acting as agents or
brokers and buying merchandise for, or selling merchandise to, such individuals or
companies. This is not considered a general commercial use.
Zoning Map
We recommend that the City update the zoning map to be consistent with the adopted 2030 Future
Land Use Map as required by State Statute and to eliminate any confusion about appropriate land
uses on properties. However, this item is not required immediately and can be completed in the
future.

ORDINANCE NO. 8 -12
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING SECTION 3.4.Q OF THE ZONING ORDINANCE
TO REVISE LANDSCAPING AND BUFFER STANDARDS IN ACCORDANCE WITH
THE 2030 COMPRHENSIVE PLAN
Section 1 Findings
Section 2, Subdivision 1 of the Zoning Ordinance requires consideration of possible
adverse effects of a proposed zoning amendment and that the judgment of a proposed
amendment to the Zoning Ordinance shall be based upon, but not limited to, the
following factors:
1. The proposed action has been considered in relation to the specific policies and
provisions of, and has been found to be consistent with, the official City
Comprehensive Plan.
The purpose of this amendment is to implement portions of the newly
adopted 2030 comprehensive plan, and to clearly express the landscaping
and buffer standards for future developments.
2. The proposed use is or will be compatible with present and future land uses of the
area.
The changes contained within this amendment will increase the compatibility
between present and future land uses as appropriate landscaping and
buffering will be provided for.
3. The proposed use conforms to all performance standards contained herein.
This ordinance will reflect the goals of the comprehensive plan and will
establish performance standards for new developments that occur within the
city.
4. The proposed use can be accommodated with existing public services and will not

2. Landscaping Standards. New residential platted subdivisions, mixed
use, commercial, institutional and industrial uses shall be subject to the
landscaping standards unless specifically excepted. The landscape
standards have been divided into five categories: Canopy Cover,
Foundation Landscape, Open Areas Landscape, Buffer and Screen, and
Boulevard Trees. Projects shall comply with the applicable requirements
of all five categories.
3. Canopy Cover Standards. The purpose of this requirement is to
mitigate the effects of vehicular hardscape by establishing tree canopy
cover to intercept rainfall, protect pavement from sun deterioration,
reduce the heat island affect, and improve aesthetics. Vehicular
hardscape areas includes loading drives, parking lots, driveways, drop -
offs and other areas covered with a hard surface intended for vehicles.
Canopy cover requirements do not apply to single family residential
development, nor to multi - family residential development without surface
parking other than individual unit driveways.
a. The required minimum canopy coverage for all uses is 40 %.
b. The following equation shall be used to calculate required canopy
coverage:
Vehicular Hardscape (Square Feet) x Canopy Cover Percent =
Required Minimum Canopy Cover (Square Feet)
The total of the assigned canopy coverage values for all the trees
in or near the vehicular hardscape must be equal or greater than
the required minimum. Pervious pavements are considered 50%
hardscape.
c. The assigned canopy coverage value of each tree is based on
planting location, tree size and anticipated tree canopy size 15
P88
years after planting. The assigned canopy cover value to each
deciduous tree is described in the following table and illustrations:

Trees with access to planting soil
outside of the island are required to
meat soil volume requirements for a
shared bed.
Trees in interior islands are valued at
100% Canopy
d. Existing trees may be used to fulfill canopy coverage, as
described in Section 3.Subd. 4.0.8, when the drip line has
proximity to the edge of the hardscape; therefore, existing trees
do not need to be within less than 7' feet of the vehicular
hardscape edge.
4. Foundation Landscape Standards. The purpose of these standards is
to soften and enhance building architecture, define access points, add
color and seasonal interest, and to blend buildings in with the natural
P89
environment. Foundation Landscaping Standards do not apply to single
family residential development.
a. The foundation landscape planting standards are described in the
following table:

b. Round all calculations to the nearest whole number of plants.
c. The required plant materials shall be planted in the foundation
landscape zone adjacent to the building face where the
requirement applies. The City may allow flexible planting
locations where service areas or other constraints make the
standards difficult to meet.
d. Existing trees may be used to fulfill the Foundation Landscape
• Standards as described in Section 3 Subd.4.Q.8.
e. Smaller landscape materials may be substituted at the following
rates

3 Large Shrubs = 5 Medium or 10 Small Shrubs
f. The design of landscaping for ground areas under the building
roof overhang must take into account the potential effects of runoff
from the roof edge.
5. Open Areas Landscape Standards: The purpose of these standards is
to provide general site beautification and high aesthetic quality with a mix
of plant materials in open areas. Open areas include disturbed site
areas, such as cul de sac islands, boulevard medians, storm water
management areas, common areas in multifamily sites that are not for
recreation facilities, and disturbed areas that are not located within the
foundation landscape zone, vehicular hardscape area or the building
footprint. Open Area landscaping standards do not apply to single family
residential lots. Open areas landscaping shall meet the following
standards.
• a. The open areas planting standards are described in the following
table:

9. Tree Preservation and Mitigation Standards: The purpose of these
standards is to protect valuable trees and stands of vegetation, while not
interfering with landowners' reasonable use and development of
property. The goal is to minimize unnecessary Toss of habitat,
biodiversity and forest resources and to replace removed trees in areas
where tree cover is most critical. Unless specifically excepted, tree
preservation and mitigation standards apply to all plats, site plans,

d. For a new plat or new Planned Unit Development, the tree survey
shall be one plan sheet and the tree preservation plan shall be a
separate plan sheet.
e. For a building permit for a new structure on an existing lot, the
tree survey and preservation information may be included on the
lot survey typically required for a building permit instead of on a
separate document. For a building permit for an addition to an
existing structure, the tree survey information may be provided in
an informal medium that sufficiently conveys the information.
f. At the City's discretion, the tree survey requirement may be
waived under the following circumstances:
1) Deciduous trees greater than 6" dbh or evergreen trees
greater than 12' tall will not be removed and are not likely
to be impacted by construction.
2) Deciduous trees greater than 6" dbh or evergreen trees

preserved must be protected by the following methods unless otherwise
approved by the City.
a. Tree protection fencing shall be installed and maintained 5' out
from the identified drip line of the trees (Root Protection Zone)
prior to soil disturbance. Fencing shall be a minimum of 4' high
and of a highly visible material, such as snow fence or
polyethylene laminar safety netting, and must be standing
throughout the construction process. Cut roots with clean,
pruning cuts at the fence line prior to fence installation to avoid

proceeding to enforce such financial guarantee or before the City undertakes any
work for which the City will be reimbursed through the financial guarantee. If

within which such default will be cured, the City will proceed with the remedy it
deems appropriate.

Work, plus the City's estimated expenses as defined herein, including any
other costs, expenses, and damages for which the surety may be liable
hereunder, but not exceeding the amount set forth on the Letter of Credit.
The money shall be deemed to be held by the City for the purpose of

Authorization Lake/Main and Birch/Ware Intersection
Improvement Project.
ACTION REQUIRED: 3/5
INTRODUCTION
Staff is requesting council consideration to approve a supplemental agreement with TKDA for
engineering services provided that are outside the scope of the original professional services
agreement.
BACKGROUND
The City Council authorized TKDA to prepare the plans & specifications for the Lake/Main &
Birch/Ware intersection projects in January of 2011. During the plan development process
design work was completed that was not originally contemplated, such as the Market Place
signal components and the overlay of Lake Drive from Main Street to 77t. Additional work was
also required due to design changes necessary to meet storm water requirements, additional
right -of -way acquisition, and Mn/DOT state aid requirements. TKDA has submitted a
supplemental authorization request covering the additional items for both projects totaling $137,
291.94.
Staff is working with Anoka County and WSB Inc. to review the request. At this time we are
proposing approval of the following items:
Lake Drive/Main Street
• Millers Parking Lot Design and updates $ 3,449.98
• Signal Justification Report updates $ 1,098.19
• Soil Borings $ 1,833.77
• Traffic Counts $ 525.00
• Market Place signal/sidewalk $12,547.48
• Crack and Seat (overlay) $19,908.92
Subtotal Lake /Main $39,363.34
Birch/Ware
• • Sioux Lane Watermain Extension $1,994.06
• SJR Updates for New Traffic $ 720.21
• Soil Borings
• Birch Street Full Lot Acquisition/Storm
Subtotal Birch/Ware
Total Supplemental Authorization
$ 1,833.77
$ 6,667.80
$11,215.84
$50,579.18
Under the terms of the JPA the Market Place signal /sidewalk and Crack and Seat expenditures
are 100% Anoka County costs. Staff is continuing to review the balance of the request and will
bring forth a recommendation at a future meeting date.

question was raised about the disparity between Blaine and Lino Lakes housing growth, so included is a
comparison of housing growth in the two cities dating back to 2000.
Tax Forfeit process:
After Hartford Group let the Legacy properties go into foreclosure, the bank servicing the loan on the
properties closed and taxes and assessments went unpaid. A group of investors who had participated in
the development loan had three years to redeem the properties by paying off back taxes, assessments,
penalties and interest, but failed to do so. The redemption period ended July 2011 and the properties went
tax forfeit. Tax forfeit properties are owned by the state, but their maintenance and sale are administered
by the counties. The county assessor sets the value of the parcels.
Staff and legal counsel met with Anoka County officials on several occasions to discuss the future of the
Legacy parcels. Anoka County has indicated it would not put Legacy properties up for sale in the near
future because it is unlikely a sale would occur. Once a property is tax forfeit, City has a right at any time
before a sale to request that it be held from public sale for a period of six months and the city can
purchase it within that time frame. If the City finds a developer, it could use a turn-key approach to
purchase the property and turn it around to sell to a developer.
If parcels of forfeited land in Anoka County are sold, the County determines its annual expenditures for
administering tax forfeit property and subtracts that amount from the gross receipts from all tax forfeit
property for that year. The annual expenditures are prorated to the parcels based on the receipts for that
year. These expenses average $100,000 per year. At worst case, if a Legacy parcel was the only parcel to
sell within a specific year, that $100,000 would be retained by the County from the purchase price. The
remaining revenue would be returned to the City to be used to pay assessments on that parcel.
Marketing efforts:
Staff continues its marketing of the Legacy project to developers. For the past four years developers who
have met with staff have continued to make the much the same comments:
• There are fewer developers to do projects, those still doing business look for easy projects in
desirable locations
• Housing developments are smaller (prefer approx. 40 lots) to avoid land carrying costs
• There is no market for townhomes
• There is a market for apartments
• Developers are building in the inner rings
• It's easier for consumers to get to the developments in other cities, such as Blaine
• Construction costs have not gone down while home prices have dropped
• Financing is difficult but is freeing up slightly in 2012
• Lino Lakes market is soft for commercial /retail
• Lino Lakes has a reputation as anti - development (limit to housing starts and perception that
townhomes are not welcome)
Staff has met with a variety of developers, attend real estate conferences to follow current trends and
network with developers, mail marketing materials, and continue to look for ways to appeal to all
realistic markets. Staff has met with the following housing developers:
• Ryland Homes, Mike DeVoe
• Pulte Homes, Ian Peterson
• Lennar, Steve Ach
• The Beard Group, Tom Gump
• Hans Hagen Homes, John Rask
• Doran Companies, Kelly Doran
• Century Farms - Gary Uhde
• CBRE - Richard Palmiter
• Welsh Co. - Ted Gonsier
• Pratte Homes - Len Pratte
• Cornerstone Group, Colleen Carey
• Common Bond
• Dominium, Nick Anderson
• Lino Lakes Assisted Living, Amy Koehnen
• Bancor Group, David Newman
Additionally, Springsted and city staff are arranging a developer forum with several other
residential /commercial developers to continue the dialogue. Staff is preparing a marketing piece for their
use.
Tax Revenues from Different Types of Development
Council requested that staff present revenue generated from different types of development. Below is a
comparison of residential types and commercial /industrial development based on a range of values. In
addition there is a comparison of an existing space in Lino Lakes (Lakewood Apartments first floor) built
out as commercial, as market rate apartments, and as affordable apartments.

Comparison of Blaine versus Lino Lakes housing growth
Council inquired what Blaine was "doing right" in terms of housing growth. Blaine, which had a peak lot
inventory in 2006 of 1,350 homes, has a current single family lot inventory of 360. Lino Lakes' current
inventory is 64.
Below is a comparison of the number of new housing permits issued in Blaine versus Lino Lakes since
2000. Note that the 2010 Lino Lakes Comprehensive Plan limiting the amount of new housing units took
effect in August of 2002. Also note the uptick in Lino Lakes housing permits in 2004 and 2005 contained
a significant amount of townhome development.
