CODE OF CONDUCT
Purpose
To establish a code of conduct and associated remedies that council members agree to abide
by in carrying out their duties as elected officials. This code of conduct does not supersede
any existing or future statutory or constitutional rights, but simply outlines appropriate council
expectations, behavior and interactions with each other, city staff, citizens and all other
groups encountered as a result of city business, so as to efficiently and effectively develop and
carry out the mission, vision, goals and established policies of the city.
Roles/Responsibilities
Meetings — By Charter, the mayor presides over meetings of the city council. Speakers,
including council members, do not speak until recognized by the mayor.
Act in the Public Interest — Recognizing that service to our citizens must be our primary
concern, council members shall work for the common good of the people of Lino Lakes and
not for any private or personal interest. Council members will treat all persons, claims and
transactions in a fair and equitable manner.
Preparation — Council members are expected to be prepared for city council meetings and
work sessions.
Agenda Preparation — The city administrator directs preparation of draft meeting agendas.
The final agenda is determined by the city council prior to the meeting. At the council
meeting, agenda items may be added or deleted by council members per procedures
established in the city code.
Conduct of Members
Staff Direction — The mayor and city council members direct city staff, contract employees
and consultants only through the city administrator, as determined by majority vote. At work
sessions, the mayor will state the concerns of the council or specific directions provided by
the council to the staff. The city administrator will request further clarification if he feels it is
required so that there is a clear understanding of what the council's expectations are in terms
of the actions to be taken by staff.
Respect for Staff Time — If a council member is utilizing an inordinate amount of staff time,
the city administrator is required to bring this to the attention of the city council for resolution.
Interactions — Council members shall refrain from abusive conduct, personal charges or
verbal attacks upon the character or motives of other members of the city council, boards,
commissions, committees, staff or the public.
Respect for Process — Council member duties shall be performed in accordance with the
processes and rules of order established by the city council.
Use of Public Resources — Public resources not available to the general public (e.g., city staff
time, equipment, supplies or facilities) shall not be used by council members for private,
personal or political purposes.
Advocacy — To the best of their ability, council members shall speak with one voice in
representing the official policies and positions of the city council. When presenting their
personal opinions or positions, members shall explicitly state that they do not represent the
council or the city.
Improper Influence — Council members shall refrain from using their position to improperly
influence the deliberations or decisions of city staff, boards, commission or committees.
Positive Work Environment — Council members shall support a positive, efficient and
effective environment for residents, businesses and city employees.
Steward of City Funds — When the end of a council member's service on the city council has
been determined by means of not seeking re- election, resignation, or the results of an election,
that council member shall not subject the city to unnecessary travel and/or tuition costs.
Communication
Sharing of Information — It is the responsibility of council members to publicly share
information with all other council members that they have received from sources outside of
the public decision - making process, which pertains to a topic under consideration. Whenever
possible, new information or data obtained by council members, pertinent to a topic being
discussed, will be distributed through the city administrator to the city council members.
Upon reviewing the "new information" the council may adopt a motion to postpone further
consideration of the information until all members have had time to review and interpret this
new information.
Focused Discussions — Council members shall work to keep discussions and debates focused
on the item under discussion without introducing extraneous or irrelevant information.
Request for Information - All council members shall receive the same information at the
same time when deemed ready for distribution by staff. If an elected official requests
information in advance of others on the city council, the matter shall be resolved by a majority
of the city council.
Coordination with City Staff — City staff should be involved when council members meet
with officials from other agencies and jurisdictions to ensure proper staff support as needed
and to keep staff appropriately informed.
Citizen Questions — Elected officials should refer questions and concerns from citizens to the
city administrator or appropriate department director. City staff should report back to the city
council on the resolution of the referral.
Confidential Information — Council members shall respect and preserve the confidentiality
of non- public, protected non - public, private, and confidential information provided to them
concerning matters of the city. They shall neither disclose confidential information without
proper legal authorization nor use such information to advance their personal, financial or
private interests.
•
•
Notice of Attendance — If any council member has knowledge or reason to believe that there
will be a large or emotional attendance at an upcoming council meeting or work session, they
have an obligation to inform the city administrator as soon as they become aware of the
potential situation.
Implementation
Orientation — This Code of Conduct shall be included in the regular orientations for new city
council members. Following each election, the new council shall, by resolution of its elected
members, adopt a city council code of conduct.
Compliance and Enforcement — Council members themselves have the primary
responsibility to assure that the code of conduct is understood and followed and that the
public can continue to have full confidence in the integrity of the Lino Lakes city government.
Remedies
It is the responsibility of the city council to police its members. When inappropriate
behaviors are observed, any member of the council can intervene. If inappropriate behavior is
observed, the city council will discuss the behavior at a council work session. By direction of
the council, it will be determined whether:
a. A letter is sent to the offending council member stating that they have been found
operating outside the established code of conduct, requesting them to correct the
behavior identified as inappropriate; or
b. The council member is formally sanctioned by resolution at a council meeting.

AGENDA ITEM 3 E
STAFF MEMBER Daniel Tesch, Director of Administration
DATE 14 April 2008
SUBJECT 2008 -2009 Non -Union Salaries
VOTE REQUIRED 3/5
BACKGROUND
Each year the council is asked to consider non -union salaries. Two components of our
review are to provide an Annual Adjustment to all employees in order to maintain our
internal equity. We also look at the external market to determine if we are maintaining
our marketability.
City staff is working with Springsted Inc. to audit certain pay program functions
including a review of internal equity, development of a pay program philosophy and a
review of pay for performance.
Until that is completed, staff is reluctant to make a recommendation on market increases
for this group — althon • h a couple appear to be warranted as in the case with AFSCME.
Instead, we would recommend the same 3% Annual Adjustment that all employees are
scheduled to received in 2008 and is that percentage that is consistent with the
metropolitan area.
We would ask the council to review the Pay Program after completion of the audit.
As with all other employee groups the city proposes an increase of the employers
percentage of health insurance contributions by up to 2 %, depending on what happens to
our rates.
OPTIONS
1. Approve non -union salaries
2. Not approve non -union salaries

Memorandum
To: City Council
From: Gordon Heitke
Date: April 11, 2008
Re: Variance from Fire Code
fWe1dy
Re. rce,ci ev, `I -1I —vd
Staff has received additional correspondence from the State Fire Marshall's Office
yesterday regarding the process for the Miller's on Main request for a variance from fire
code requirements. The State Fire Marshall's Office is stating that they will not involve
themselves in this issue unless it is appealed to them, "or in some cases when the city
doesn't take issue ". Their position now seems to be that the City Council will be the final
decision authority. Last year the Fire Chief and city staff was comfortable with the final
decision resting with the ultimate authority, the State Fire Marshall's Office.
In view of the City Council possibly being the final decision - making authority this time,
the Fire Chief and city staff feels that it is in the city's best interest to have the LMCIT
Risk Management Attorney review this issue and advise the city of it's risk and any risk
control measures. For example, the statute allows for variances to be granted in cases of
"undue hardship ". We are seeking guidance on what constitutes "undue hardship ". The
statute states that "governing bodies are not liable for damages in connection with
granting variances... that are made in good faith" We are also seeking guidance on what
constitutes "good faith" in this context. Our concern is that the City not inadvertently
assume some unknown liability due to not meeting the legal conditions for the issuance
of a variance.
It is the intent of the LMCIT Risk Management Attorney to finish reviewing this situation
Monday. Staff will be providing an update to council members sometime during the day
on Monday. If for some reason, the attorney's review can not be completed prior to the
meeting, a decision can be made whether to remove this item from the agenda or act on
the request without the information.

AGENDA ITEM 3G
STAFF ORIGINATOR: Administrator Gordon Heitke
MEETING DATE: April 14, 2008
TOPIC: Request for Variance from State Fire Code
VOTE REQUIRED: 3/5
BACKGROUND
Mr. Chad Wagner, owner of Miller's on Main at 8001 Lake Drive, has submitted plans
to hold a music /dance event at his business on August 15 -16, 2008, the same
weekend that the city festival, Blue Heron Days may be held (no applications for that
event have been received as yet). As part of the application process, Mr. Wagner has
applied for a variance from the state fire code related to the placement of a temporary
tent structure for the purpose of occupancy for a concert/dance, in conjunction with his
special event permit application. Minnesota Laws, Chapter 299F.011, Subd. 5
establishes a procedure for the State Fire Marshal to grant variances from the
minimum requirements specified in the state fire code in cases where "there is
substantial compliance with the provisions of the code, the safety of the public and
occupants of such building will not be jeopardized, and undue hardship will result to
the applicant unless such variance is granted ". The law further states that "governing
bodies are not liable for damages in connection with granting variances, abatements,
denials, or modifications of orders from the fire code that are made in good faith ".
The procedure for application to the State Fire Marshal requires that the applicant first
make application to the local governing body and that action be taken by that body.
The Fire Marshal's Code Advisory Panel would then review the application at its
monthly meeting and make a recommendation to the State Fire Marshal. The State
Fire Marshal does consider any decisions or recommendations of the local goveming
body.
In this case, Mr. Wagner is requesting to vary from the 20 foot minimum setback
requirement from the north property line. The reasons for the variance request are set
forth in the applicant's letter and shown on the applicant's site plan (both attached).
Mr. Wagner applied for the same variance in conjunction with his 2007 event; the
variance was granted. The State Fire Marshal's Office is informing the city at this time,
however, that when the 2007 variance was granted, "....it was for that year's event
only and future activities will need to address the distance separation issue..." and
they would prefer not to receive an annual variance request.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff is in receipt of Mr. Wagner's application for variance from the State Fire Code
and requests direction from the council.
OPTIONS FOR COUNCIL ACTION
The variance procedures require that the Council move to:
1. endorse the variance,
2. deny the variance,
3. modify the variance, or
4. defer the matter to the State Fire Marshal

Dear City of Lino Lakes Council Members:
I am writing on behalf of Miller's on Main and the Blue Heron Days
Committee. I am requesting a variance from the State Fire Code. The
variance is for the tent that is used for Blue Heron Days weekend at Milers
on Main. The tent has been used for the street dance, royalty coronation,
taco- eating contest, among other things. The same size tent has been used
from 2003 -2007, plus for the benefit for officer Silvera. It was brought to
our attention that the tent does not meet the state fire code for being 20' from
each property line. This code is in place for the safety of the public.
I feel that we meet most of the code requirements and cause no concern for
the public's safety. We are 20' from the property line to the East, West, and
South. To the north we are not 20' from the property line, however you can
see from the enclosed site plan that the side of the tent to the north is
completely closed off by a wall. That being the case there is no way for
people to exit that direction anyway. I have been told by the fire department
that the openings to the west and south are sufficient enough for this size
tent.
If we are unable to obtain this variance we will be unable to proceed with the
above mentioned activities for Blue Heron Days weekend. I feel that it
would be major disappointment for the community.
To summarize, I am requesting the City Council of Lino Lakes to grant a
variance for the state fire code that states all tents need to be at least 20'
from each property line. Lastly, the council should know that in the state
fire code it is stated " governing bodies are not liable for damages in
connection with granting variances, abatements, denials, or modifications of
orders from the fire code that are made in good faith."
I thank you for considering this request and hope to see everybody that
weekend.
Sincerely,
%

Jim Studenski, City Engineer
April 14, 2008
Second Reading: Ordinance No. 06 -08,
Amending the Lino Lakes City Code,
Chapter 400, Water and Sewer, by amending
subdivisions 1 -4 under section 401.02, Use
of Water Restrictions to Authorized Persons.
3/5 Vote
Public water suppliers that service more than 1,000 people are required to have a Water
Emergency and Conservation Plan approved by the Department of Natural Resources
(DNR) (Minnesota Statutes 103G.291). The most recent Water Emergency and
Conservation Plan update was adopted at the September 24, 2007 City Council Meeting.
The Water Emergency and Conservation Plan adopted established conservation goals for
the benchmarks listed below. The Department of Natural Resources (DNR) permit
approvals will be based on meeting the specified benchmarks listed below. If water
demands exceed Benchmarks for unaccounted water, residential per capita, and peak
demands then permit approval will be contingent on implementation of one or more of
the listed Conservation Goals until the benchmark is achieved.
The City exceeds the DNR benchmarks for water use in three categories; (1) Residential
Gallons Per Capita Demand (GPCD), (2) Total Per Capita Demand, and (3) Peak
Demands.
Ordinance 06 -08 addresses the following conservation goal set in the Water Emergency
and Conservation Plan:
Total Per Capita Demand
a. Prepare a time of day lawn watering ordinances that restricts lawn watering
during the daytime hours of 10:OOam to 6:OOpm. Attached is a copy of the
ordinance. A public education program consisting of detailed information on
the City website, the quarterly newsletter and a public notice will coincide
with the implementation of this ordinance. This ordinance will require
additional resources for enforcement. The penalties for violation of the
ordinance will be $25 on a first offense and $50 for any subsequent violations
in a year.
Time of day lawn watering ordinances that restrict lawn watering during
midday hours can lower water usage and reduce peak demands. Early
morning is the best time to water for a healthy lawn. Public information
programs and local ordinances that encourage lawn watering before 10:00
am and after 6:00 pm can improve lawn watering efficiencies by reducing
water lost to evaporation and wind drift. Wind and evaporation during
midday hours can remove up to 65% of sprinkling water meant for your
lawn.
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends approving Ordinance No. 06 -08, Amending the Lino Lakes City Code,
Chapter 400, Water and Sewer, by amending subdivisions 1 -4 under section 401.02, Use

Resolution Approving the 2007/2008 Management Plan
for Conservation Areas in Foxborough and the
Disbursement of Foxborough Conservation
Management Stewardship Funds for work Completed In
2007.
3/5
Foxborough Development was approved on August 22, 2005. Foxborough is a
conservation development that set up a stewardship fund for implementing the
management plan for conservation easement areas set aside inside the geographic
limits of the development. Covenants and restrictions have been written subjecting all
those who purchase property in Foxborough to a Homeowners Association with
conservation easement use restrictions, yearly management work plan approvals by the
City, and annual fees for the maintenance of conservation areas.
The Conservation Fund for Foxborough consists of a $100,000 endowment established
by the developer, and annual fees of $100 per lot. Yearly Interest off of the $100,000
endowment, plus the annual $100 per lot Homeowners Association fee establishes the
amount of money available to manage conservation easement areas in Foxburough.
There are 57 lots within Foxborough. The annual contribution by the Homeowners
Association is $5,700 plus interest accrued. The Homeowners Association is
responsible for collecting the funds and the City maintains the collected funds in a
separate account. Until sufficient lots are sold within the development, the Developer is
the Homeowner's Association and has paid dues for two years ($11,400). The dues,
together with interest from the endowment fund establishes an available fund balance of
$22,849 for 2007 and 2008.
As part of Foxborough Development approvals, a Restoration and Management Plan
was required that laid out typical work schedules for the conservation areas. Each year,
the Homeowner's Association must hire an ecologist to make recommendations
concerning the management of the Foxburough Conservation Areas relative to the plan
and monies available. Proposed work plans submitted to the City by the Homeowner's
Association that are the product of the ecologist's analysis, are reviewed by the
Environmental Board. The Environmental Board then makes a recommendation to the
—65—
City Council concerning the annual work plan. A similar process is followed to review
completed work for approving the transfer of money from the Foxborough Stewardship
fund to the Homeowner's Association to pay for the completed work.
Attachment 1 is the report dated February 21st, 2008 completed by Jason Husveth of
Critical Connections. Mr. Husveth is the ecologist hired by the Association (Royal Oaks
Realty) to make management recommendations. Recommendations are for the work
completed in 2007 and the proposed work plan for 2008. The City of Lino Lakes
Environmental Board reviewed the report from Critical Connections and the Foxburough
Homeowners Association (presently Royal Oaks Realty) at the March 26th
Environmental Board meeting. The Environmental Board made recommendation that
the proposed work schedule be approved and Stewardship funds released upon
completion of proposed tasks. Resolution 08 -39 approves releasing $4,770 for work
completed in 2007. It also approves the work plan for 2008.
RECOMMENDATION
1. Approve adoption of Resolution No. 08 -39, approving the 2007/ 2008 work plan for
Foxborough conservation areas, and the release of $4,700.00 from the stewardship
fund for work done in 2007.

Re: Foxborough Conservation Development, Lino Lakes, Minnesota
Restoration and Management Planning for the 2007 and 2008
Dear Mr. Asleson and Mr. Black:
At the request of Royal Oaks Realty (ROR) and the Foxborough Homeowner's Association,
Critical Connections Ecological Services, Inc (CCES) has been asked to prepare a scope of work
for restoration and management needs and priorities for the Foxborough conservation
development in 2008. These tasks are consistent with the Foxborough Restoration and
Management Plan, developed by CCES in August 2005. The proposed restoration and
management tasks will be implemented during the 2008 growing season, and will rely on
available funding within the Foxborough Conservation Fund.
The following proposed tasks, timelines, costs, and priorities constitute the planned scope of
work for 2008 within Foxborough's conservation outlots. Task 1 (prescribed burn) was
previously implemented in April 2007, and is included in this scope of work.
2007 Restoration and Management Tasks (Completed):
Task 1: Prescribed Burn of Conservation Outlots.
A prescribed burn was planned and implemented by Critical Connections Ecological Services
in cooperation with Marty Asleson, City of Lino Lakes Natural Resources Specialist. The burn
was implemented on April 25, 2007 within approximately 75% of the conservation outiot
acreage within the Foxborough conservation development. Accessible wetland and upland
habitats were burned successfully. In addition, an adult female Blanding's Turtle was
discovered during the prescribed burn, and was re- released after the burn was completed.
CCES submitted and invoice for this completed work to the City of Lino Lakes on February 19,
2008 in the amount of $4,770.
Task 1 Timeline: April 2007 (completed)
Task 1 Costs: $4,770 (invoiced February 19, 2008)

Task 2: Additional Native Seeding.
CCES will develop specifications and order native seed mixes for inter - seeding into wetland and upland
areas needing additional native seed and plant material. Priority areas to be targeted for re- seeding and
inter - seeding in 2008 are bare soil areas within stormwater management wetlands and along the edges
of established trails. All species will be native and appropriate to the existing and prescribed native
habitats being seeding. Seed will be ordered in March and seeding in fate March or April.
Task 2 Timeline:
Task 2 Costs:
March through April 2008
$1,500 Seed
$3,000 Labor
Task 3: Management of Invasive Species.
invasive species occurring within the conservation outlots will be inspected, managed, and treated with
appropriate herbicides during the 2008 growing season. Buckthorn seedlings and re- sprouts will be
chemically treated with Roundup (Glyphosate) herbicide. Reed canary grass will be treated with a grass -
specific herbicide (Sethoxydim) in species diverse areas, or Rodeo (Glyphosate) herbicide in areas with
over 90% reed canary grass cover. invasive cattails, such as narrow leaved cattail and hybrid cattail, will
be treated with Rodeo (Glyphosate) herbicide. Invasive species management and herbicide treatments
will be prioritized to areas that were burned in 2007, to follow up on this management approach, and
will then be implemented in other areas as the budget financial resources allow.
Task 3 Timeline:
Task 3 Costs:
April through October 2008
$1,200 Herbicide
$8,500 Labor
Task 4: Removal of Damaged Oak Tree.
A damaged oak tree within the northeast corner of the Foxborough site will be removed. This tree is
located within the conservation area, and is immediately adjacent to the trail. The tree was damaged by
wind storms two years ago, and its substantial side -limbs have fallen onto the trail in Last year. The tree
presents a safety liability and could result in further damage to the adjacent City -owned trail, if left
untreated. CCES will fall and remove the tree during the winter months, to reduce the possibility of
damage to the trail and ground vegetation (while the ground is frozen).

Option 1
Council Member moved for adoption of the following ordinance:
CITY OF LINO LAKES
ORDINANCE NO. 04 -08
AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 05 -05
AN ORDINANCE REGULATING SIGNS IN THE CITY OF LINO LAKES,
ANOKA COUNTY, MINNESOTA.
The City Council of the City of Lino Lakes ordains that Ordinance No. 05 -05 is amended
as follows:
SECTION L PURPOSE, AND INTENT, AND FINDINGS
It is not the purpose or intent of this sign ordinance to regulate the message displayed on
any sign; nor is it the purpose or intent to regulate any building design or any display not
defined as a sign, or any sign which cannot be viewed from outside a building. Rather, the
purpose and findings of the sign ordinance are as follows:
a) Purpose: the sign ordinance is intended to establish a comprehensive and
balanced system of sign control that accommodates the need for a well - maintained, safe,
and attractive community, and the need for effective communications including business
identification. It is the intent of this seetionordinance to promote the health, safety, general
welfare, aesthetics, and image of the community by regulating signs that are intended to
communicate to the public, and to use signs which meet the city's goals by authorizing:
1) permanent signs which establish a high standard of aesthetics;
2) signs which are compatible with their surroundings;
3) signs which are designed, constructed, installed and maintained in a
manner that does not adversely impact public safety or unduly
distract motorists;
4) signs which are large enough to convey the intended message and to
help citizens find their way to intended destinations;
5) signs that are proportioned to the scale of, and are architecturally
compatible with, principal structures;
6) permanent signs which give preference to the on- premise owner or
occupant and
7) temporary commercial signs and advertising displays which provide
an opportunity for grand openings and occasional sales events while
restricting signs which create continuous visual clutter and hazards
at public right -of -way intersections.
Ordinance 04 -08, Sjn Ordinance page 1 of 29

•
•
•
•
b) Findings: the city of Lino Lakes finds it is necessary for the promotion and
preservation of the public health, safety, welfare and aesthetics of the community that the
construction, location, size and maintenance of signs be controlled. Further, the city finds:
1) permanent and temporary signs have a direct impact on and
relationship to the image of the community;
2) the manner of installation, location and maintenance of signs affects
the public health, safety, welfare and aesthetics of the community;
3) an opportunity for viable identification of community businesses and
institutions must be established;
4) the safety of motorists, cyclists, pedestrians and other users of public
streets and property is affected by the number, size, location and
appearance of signs that unduly divert the attention of drivers;
5) installation of signs suspended from, projecting over, or placed on
the tops of buildings, walks or other structures may constitute a
hazard during periods of high winds and an obstacle to effective fire-
fighting and other emergency service;
6) uncontrolled and unlimited signs adversely impact the image and
aesthetic attractiveness of the community and thereby undermine
economic value and growth;
7) uncontrolled and unlimited signs, particularly temporary signs which
are commonly located within or adjacent to public right -of -way or
are located at driveway /street intersections, result in roadside clutter
and obstruction of views of oncoming traffic. This creates a hazard
to drivers and pedestrians and also adversely impacts a logical flow
of information;
8) commercial signs are generally incompatible with residential uses
and should be strictly limited in residential zoning districts; and
9) the right to express noncommercial opinions in any zoning district
must be protected, subject to reasonable restrictions on size, height.,
location and number;
10) light pollution creates negative impacts on the community,
particularly in residential and rural areas.
oroction and use of signs, symbols, markings, or advertising devices within the
City. These standards are designed to protect and promote the general welfare,
which allow and encourage creativity, effectiveness and flexibility in the design and

D. Violations.
Any violation of this Ordinance shall constitute a misdemeanor Each day of such

SECTION IV. DYNAMIC SIGN REGULATIONS:
Findings. Studies show that there is a correlation between dynamic displays on signs and
the distraction of highway drivers. Distraction can lead to traffic accidents. Drivers can be
distracted not only by a changing_message, but also by knowing that the sign has a
changing message. Drivers may watch a sign waiting for the next change to occur.
Drivers are also distracted by messages that do not tell the full story in one look. People
have a natural desire to see the end of the story and will continue to look at the sign in
order to wait for the end. Additionally, drivers are more distracted by special effects used
to change the message, such as fade -ins and fade -outs. Finally, drivers are generally more
distracted by messages that are too small to be clearly seen or that contain more than a
simple message. Time and temperature sus appear to be an exception to these concerns
because the messages are short, easily absorbed, and become inaccurate without frequent
changes.
In addition to safety concerns, light pollution creates negative impacts. particularly in rural
areas and residential neighborhoods of the community. The City has adopted regulations
of exterior lighting intended to reduce light pollution. Dynamic displays are by nature very
bright and often are installed on highway signs, many of which are in rural and residential
areas in Lino Lakes.
In conclusion, the city finds that any sign containing, in whole or in part, a dynamic
display, except signs solely displaying the time and/or temperature or similar, should not
be allowed in any District except as otherwise set forth in this Ordinance

CITY OF LINO LAKES
COUNTY OF ANOKA
SUMMARY OF ORDINANCE NO. 04-08
AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 05 -05
AN ORDINANCE REGULATING SIGNS IN THE CITY OF LINO LAKES,
ANOKA COUNTY, MINNESOTA.
Section I: Purpose and Intent and Findings. The sign ordinance is intended to
establish a comprehensive and balanced system of sign control that accommodates the
need for a well - maintained, safe, and attractive community, and the need for effective
communications including business identification. It is the intent of this ordinance to
promote the health, safety, general welfare, aesthetics, and image of the community by
regulating signs that are intended to communicate to the public, and to use signs which
meet the city's goals. The City of Lino Lakes finds it is necessary for the promotion and
preservation of the public health, safety, welfare and aesthetics of the community that the
construction, location, size and maintenance of signs be controlled.
Section II: Defmitions. Definitions have been clarified, some new definitions added.
Section III: Administration and Enforcement. No sign shall be erected, altered,
reconstructed, maintained or moved in the city without first securing a permit from the
city, unless this ordinance specifically states otherwise.
Section IV: Dynamic Sign Regulations. The city finds that any sign containing, in
whole or in part, a dynamic display, except signs solely displaying the time and/or
temperature or similar, should not be allowed in any zoning district except as otherwise
set forth in this Ordinance
Section V: Zoning District Regulations. Signs in all zoning districts must comply
with the requirements in the tables in Section IX. and in Section VI.
Section VI: General Regulations Applicable To All Districts. Advertising signs
(defined in the ordinance as off - premise signs) are prohibited in all zoning districts.
Dynamic display signs, whether permanent or temporary, are prohibited in all zoning
districts except those with a dynamic display area that is less than twenty (20) square feet.
Other elements of the sign ordinance have been clarified.
Section VII: Substitution Clause. The owner of any sign, which is otherwise allowed
by this sign ordinance, may substitute a noncommercial speech copy in lieu of any other
commercial or noncommercial copy.
Section VIII: Severability. If any section, subsection, sentence, clause, or phrase of
this Sign Ordinance is for any reason held to be invalid, such decision shall not affect the
validity of the remaining portions of this Sign Ordinance
Section IX: Tables of Regulations For Zoning Districts. This section includes tables
listing sign regulations for the different zoning districts.

REVIEW REGULAR AGENDA ITEMS
There were no changes to the regular Council agenda.
Water Restriction/Lawn Sprinkler/Irrigation Systems - Engineer Studenski reviewed the
history of the current odd/even day restriction. The restrictions have not been heavily enforced —
violations letters are sent out but seldom are people actually fined. Residents first receive a tag
on their door and then a letter. The recommendation to institute a time of the day restriction
relates to the fact that 65% of water used on a lawn during the hours of 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. is
lost. Mr. Studenski noted that staff continues to recommend the odd -even rule along with the
time of day restrictions.
Council comments included concern about how new technology such as soil monitors will fit
into the restriction; and keeping both the odd/even and hourly prohibition seems like overkill
especially since you get the big savings with the time of day restriction.
Engineer Studenski explained that the odd/even restriction adds the element of spreading usage
and keeping the peak water demand down.
The mayor suggested that the council could approve first reading of the ordinance this evening to
preserve the option of getting something in place for this year's watering season, but the council
can continue discussion in the meantime and before final approval.
The meeting was adjourned at 6:28 p.m.
These minutes were considered, corrected and approved at the regular Council meeting held on April 14,
2008.

63 Reading and roll call required
64
65 City Clerk Bartell reported that after receiving the report of the Citizens Task Force to Review
66 Charter Provisions Pertaining to Local Improvements in July 2007, the council approved the first
67 reading of a charter amendment ordinance and referred the same to the Charter Commission. The
68 Charter Commission elected to draft a substitute amendment that was submitted to the council in
69 December of 2007.
70
71 In February, the council received information from the city's bond counsel and financial advisory
72 regarding legal implications of the Charter Commission's substitute amendment. The Council
73 reviewed all the proposed amendments (from the Citizens Task Force, the Charter Commission
74 substitute, a proposal from city resident Robert Bening, and State Statute 429). Additional
75 information was received regarding the impact of the various charter amendments on the city's ability
76 to issue tax- exempt bonds for improvements. After that discussion, the council directed the
77 preparation of a charter amendment ordinance based on the original Citizens Task Force proposal but
78 with the exempt zone language removed.
79
80 If approved for first reading, the ordinance would be referred to the Charter Commission and their
81 statutory review period would begin.

98 Water Restrictions to Authorized Persons, Jim Studenski
99
100 The city has adopted a Water Emergency and Conservation Plan as required by the Minnesota
101 Department of Natural Resources. The plan establishes the city's conservation goals to meet the
102 required benchmarks in the areas of residential gallons per capital demand, total per capita
103 demand and peak demand. Ordinance No. 06 -08 addresses a conservation goal for total per
104 capital demand in its restriction of time of day for lawn watering.
105
106 The council acknowledged that they've discussed the possibility of changing water restrictions at
107 length. The odd/even and hourly restrictions may both be necessary but more discussion is
108 merited.
109
110 Council Member Reinert announced that he would not be supporting the ordinance; it is
111 overburdening of regulations and he hopes that common sense will prevail before second

141 Consideration of 1St Reading of Ordinance No. 04 -08, Amending the Sign Ordinance
142
143 Planner Smyser explained that staff is presenting an ordinance that will update the city's sign
144 regulations, including the addition of permanent regulations relative to dynamic display signs for
145 which the city had adopted a moratorium in 2007.
146
147 The proposed amendments are to: a) reformat some information into tables to make it easier to
148 ready and follow; b) update the stated purpose and intent of the regulations, the definitions that
149 are used for the purpose of the ordinance, and administrative and enforcement language; c) add
150 regulations relative to dynamic display signs; d) update zoning references and general
151 regulations; and e) define banners versus flags.
152
153 Planner Smyser added that the Planning and Zoning Board has recommended approval of the

163 Consideration of Resolution No. 08-34, Accepting Petition, Birch Street and Ware Road
164 Intersection Improvement Request
165
166 Engineer Studenski reported that the city received a petition generated by a business in the Spirit
167 Hills commercial area that requests the installation of a stoplight or stop sign at the intersection of
168 Ware Road and Birch Street. The letter submitted with the petition cites traffic safety concerns.
169 Information was gathered from the Lino Lakes Police Department traffic records relative to
170 accidents at the intersection however it is not clear from that data if the accidents could have been
171 mitigated by additional traffic control. Staff has also reviewed the results of a traffic study
172 completed in 2003, prior to development of the commercial area.
173
174 The petition was forwarded to Anoka County since Birch Street is under their jurisdiction. The
175 County will be analyzing the intersection and evaluate the situation and will receive City input
176 through that process. As well, the entire Birch Street corridor will be the subject to an already
177 planned access management study in 2008.
178
179 Staff is recommending that the city accept the petition and that the intersection in question be
180 included in the upcoming county access management study.
181
182 Council Member O'Donnell moved to approve Resolution No. 08 -34 as presented. Council
183 Member Reinert seconded the motion. Motion carried.
