Diane Harberts, Transportation Specialist, Anoka County - Ms. Harberts explained she has two purposes for coming before the Council this evening; 1) to give the Council an update on the transportation service that has been operating in the area on an experimental basis; 2) to solicit Council interest to further investigate sponsoring a permanent service. Ms. Harberts explained the ride program, where it operated, how many people it served and that its first priority was to provide service to congregate dining. Ms. Harberts asked the Council to consider appointing a staff mem- ber and a community representative to join with Centerville, Lex- ington and Circle Pines representatives to review the different options available for providing transportation on a permanent ba- sis. Mayor Benson asked how did the participation compare to the original projections. Ms. Harberts explained the County had access to Cen- tennial School District Census which indicated there were over 800 seniors in the Centennial area. She felt the need was adequate and the costs of the trial services were lower than had been anticipated. She anticipated an increase in use since the trial service had been operated on a very limited basis. COI; vCIL g1 k I'ING May 27, 1986 Page Two I Mr. Bohjanen asked if the county had considered using service organizations as providers. Ms. Harberts said this area will also be investigated. 1 1 - 091 Mr. Marier asked what the costs of the program were. Ms. Harberts explained approximately $3.61 per person or 35 a mile. Mr. Bisel moved to appoint Mr. Schumacher, City Administrator and Peg Smith, Senior Coordinator to serve as Lino Lakes repre- sentatives to review different options available for providing a senior transportation service. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the mo- tion. Motion carried unanimously. Ms. Harberts told the Council of a county wide transportation service for handicapped seniors. The City can obtain more in- formation on this program at the Court House. Mayor Benson asked that this information be included in the newsletter. B. Pat Smith, rest Shadow Lake Drive Water Issues - Mr. Smith gave the Clerk a petition with about seventy -nine names on it. This petition requests that the City Council look into the high water problems in the Reshanau Lake Area. Four issues were de- fined on the petition. Mr. Smith complimented the City staff and the Civil Defense re- garding the help extended to the residents of West Shadow Lake Drive in getting to and from their homes during the period of high water over that street. The City Clerk read the petition. Gentlemen: We, the undersigned and petitioners, representing landowners on and around Reshanau Lake and the constituents of the City of Lino Lakes, do hereby request' and petition the City Council to look into the matter of the high water problem on Reshanau Lake. As landowners we are willing to meet with the City Council and proper city department heads knowledgeable on the conditions and problems that are associated with Reshanau Lake contributing to the high water problem. We hereby request and petition that the city look into and ad- dress the following options that have been compiled by discussion with property owners on the lake: 1) Raise West Shadow Lake Drive approximately three feet at the culvert from Reshanau Lake to Rice Lake at the Southwest corner of the lake. This stretch is approxi- mately 2/10 of a mile in length. 092 (;(. ?UNCIL MEETING May 27, 1986 Page Three 2) Build a dam to maintain the water level of—Reshanau Lake during the Summer season and then in the Fall drop the lake level for the upcoming Spring runoff. 3) Dredge Reshanau Lake to make it deeper so more water can be held. This would allow a larger reservoir for the Rice Creek Watershed District for runoff. Also, the fill could be used for the improvement of Chomonix Golf Course in low areas or for diking which would bene- fit the county. 4) Establish and define a project for aerating and a kill of the roughfish for the overall general improvement of the lake quality. We realize these suggestions are possible with the help of the City Council and the assistance of Anoka County, State Highway Depart- ment, the Department of Natural Resources and the Rice Creek Wa- tershed District. We also request the city look into the State and Federal funds that could be used because of the high water problem and some type of aid be established. Mr. Toddie said he had been in the area and did take water eleva- tions. He indicated that Reshanau Lake was very near the 100 year flood elevation but not quite there. There was discussion regarding controlling Rice Lake and it was noted that when Centerville Lake is high then that area drains into the Chain of Lakes areas eventually working up to Reshanau Lake. Mr. John Sweeny said he had talked with the DNR and RCWD and they told him they consider Lino Lakes a reservoir. They are ignoring Lino Lakes concerns and he asked that the Council participate in looking at the entire watershed district. Mayor Benson noted that West Shadow Lake Drive is a Municipal State Aid Road and MSA funds could be used to reconstruct the road at a higher elevation to protect against flooding. Mr. Smith noted this would not protect the property owners on Reshanau Lake and felt a method should be determined to get the flood water out of the lake fast. Mr. Mastro, a resident on LaMotte Drive asked the Council to consider that whatever method is used in controlling Reshanau Lake it will not back up other lakes and create problems in other areas. Mr. Andrew Currie thanked the City for providing shuttle service for the residents on West Shadow Lake Drive. He asked Mr. Volk for a list of the people who worked on the shuttle service. 1 1 1 1 093 COUNCIL MELTING May 27, 1986 Page Four Mayor Benson told Mr. Smith that the Council is aware of the water problems in this- area. He also noted that the City is not in the good graces of RCWD and will have to work with this agency as well as the DNR and Corp of Engineers to find a solu- tion to the problem. He asked the City Administrator to do some checking in this area and relay the information as well as the Council actions on this matter to Mr. Smith who will act as spokesman for his area. Mrs. Jaworski asked if it would be possible to have the whole Chain of Lakes dredged. Mayor Benson said he did not know if this was feasible but felt it would be costly. Mr. Marier felt the governing bodies would not consider dredging in light of what happened to Reshanau Lake the last time dredging was attempted. Mr. Sweeny said dredging the lake would only make it a bigger hold - ing pond. By his calculations it would take four days for all the runoff water to reach Reshanau Lake. He proposed devising a met- hod to keep runoff from reaching the lake. Mr. Marier moved to accept the petition as presented and have the Council and staff pursue the right approach to accomplish the end result. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Doyle of 7006 West Shadow Lake Drive thanked the City for the help in protecting his home. He expressed concern that his home was built below the 100 year flood elevation. C. Joanne Weis, LaMotte Drive Drainage Problems - Mrs. Weis ex- plained her lot is on LaMotte Road and her back yard faces a va- cant field. Run off water comes from Centerville Road down a drainage ditch near or in the water works easements and floods her property. The drainage ditch is clogged as well as a culvert Mr. Hoffmeister, a resident of LaMotte Drive, explained the prob- lem has been compounded by the development east of Centerville Road. The runoff from this development flows to the clogged ditch causing additional flooding problems in his area. Mrs. Weis asked who was responsible for getting the ditch to func- tion properly. Mr. Toddie explained it would depend on if it were a private ditch or a county ditch. Mr. Marier moved to look into this situation through the staff and report back to the Council. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Mayor Benson asked that the staff get back to Mrs. Weis when additional information is available. RESOLUTION #11 -86, DENYING TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP OF GROUP W CABLE T.V. Mr. Marier moved to adopt Resolution #11 -86 and waive the reading except the title. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. The Clerk read the title of the Resolution. Motion passed unanimously. 094 COUNCIL t`J'!' FING May 27, 1986 Page Five The Council took a five minute recess at 8:08 P.M.

ADDITION PRELIMINARY PLAT AND RESOLUTION #07 - 86 ORDERING THE IMPROVEMENTS Mr. Ulmer did not bring any new information on this matter since the last public hearing. He had not secured easements for road purposes or drainage purposes. Mr. Hawkins explained that if the City decided to use eminent domain to obtain the easements the City would have to be able to prove that this taking of the property was for public purposes.

Anderson, Clerk - Trreasurer SECOND READING, ORDINANCE #O1 - 86, REZONE ULMER'S RICE LAKE 4`.1 ADDITION Mr. Schumacher explained this area is designated in the Compreb,An- sive Land Use as Urban. Mr. Reinert said adopting this ordinance would give Mr. Ulmer the opportunity to bring in an acceptable preliminary plat. Mr. Reinert moved to adopt Ordinance #01 - 86, rezoning Ulmer's 4th from ER to R -1. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion car- ried with Mr. Marier voting, no. 1 1 1 1 CUUiwC I I, May 27, 1986 Page Eight Mr. Toddie was asked if Mr. Ulmer could develop the present one acre lots with the required, drainage easements. Mr. Toddie said it would be- very - difficult. Several members of the audience had questions: does the proposed rezone restrict itself to the 4th Addition only. Mayor Benson said yes. Comment: If this area is rezoned it will be °inconsistent with the zoning in the surrounding area. Mr. Reinert explained had the area been properly zoned and had it been properly developed the problems now being heard would not exist. Comment from Resident: Would it be wise to rezone a track that has drainage. problems, shouldn't the- water - problem be. :resolved before it be rezoned? Mr_ - ,Toddie. explained that the developers- - plan did not create a flood problem. CONSIDERATION OF AUTHORIZING THE 4TH AVENUE IMPROVEMENTS AND WATER DRAINAGE -t PROJECT - RESOLUTION #12 - 86 Mr. Schumacher explained that Mr. Hawkins has prepared a petition on the repair of Ditch #22 and it has been submitted to RCWD. 097 At the last Council Meeting, Mr. Toddie presented a cost of $29,000 to clean Ditch #22. RCWD asked for Mr. Toddies calculations and nave reviewed them and agreed to pay approximately 1/3 of this cost. RCWD has asked the City to apply for the permits to do this clean- ing. Mr. Schumacher explained the costs of the total 4th Avenue Improve- ment, Ditch #22 cleanout project. He has estimated there are 57 lots affected by this project and has estimated an assessment of $500.00 per lot will be needed as well as MSA funding, RCWD ana Anoka County funding. Mr. Marier moved to approve Resolution #12 - 86 and the 4th Avenue Improvement, Ditch #22 repair project with Anoka County and RCWD paying 1/3 each of the ditch repair. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. The Clerk read the resolution. Mr. Gordade asked if there are cost over runs on this project who will pay? Mayor Benson said he would wait for the bids to determine this. Mrs. Alma Nichols of Bluebill Lane explained the problem she is experiencing because of inadequate drainage. Mr. Kluegel will followup to determine if there is some one planning to build on this street without a permit. Q98 COUNCIL 1TKTI NG May 27, 1986 Page Nine Voting on the motion, motion carried unanimously.

Anderson, Clerk - Treasurer s .may' .enjam' .enson, Mayor 1 1 1 1 099 COUNCIL MEETING May 27, 1986 Page Ten Mr. Hawkins noted he had a meeting with landowners who would be required to give additional easement for the 4th Avenue 'Improve- ments. He was not able to obtain a clear agreement and recommended the Council proceed with eminent domain to obtain the easements. He noted it would take about 120 days under the quick taking law before the City had the right to go onto the property. The costs regarding eminent domain are MSA reimburseable. PUBLIC HEARING, CONDITIONAL USE PERMIT, WILLIAM BOOP Mayor Benson opened the public hearing at 8:56 P.M. Mr. Kluegel explained Mr. Boop's requesting a Land Reclamation permit to haul 1,500 cubic yards of sand fill to his residence at 8026 Rondeau Lake Road West to allievate a drainage problem in his back yard. The Planning and Zoning Board has reviewed this request and has recommended approval subject to the following conditions: 1) fin- ish grading plan present no adverse situations to the neighbors per the City Engineer; 2) the proper requirements are met through Corp of Engineers, DNR and RCWD. Mr. Marier moved to approve the Conditional Use Permit. Mr. Beard from the audience said he objected to granting the Con- ditional Use Permit. He is buying the Don Cordie residence to the south of Mr. Boop's property and felt that that amount of fill could cause his property to be flooded. Mr. Hoffman who owns the property to the east of Mr. Boop said water has stood on Mr. Boop's property for at least fifteen years. Mr. Don Cordie, owner of the land to the south of Mr. Boop's, said that if this request were granted it would flood his land. Mr. Boop explained the problems he has regarding his basement be- ing flooded and his septic system failing. He said he would -not flood anyone, he just wants to be able to keep his neighbors from dumping on him. After further discussion Mr. Marier's motion was declared out of order. Mr. Reinert asked that item number two of Mr. Zack Johnson's letter be further clarified and asked that the other agencies present written comment on this matter. Mr. Reinert moved to continue the public hearing since all of the information is not present. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried with Mr. Marier voting, no. Mr. Bohjanen moved to set the public hearing at 8:00- P.M. on June 9th. Mr. Reinert seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. 100 COUNCIL MEETING May 27, 1986 Page Eleven PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD REPORT - PETE KLUEGEL' A. Variance - Dog Kennel, Jim Hill - Mr. Kluegel explained that Mr. Hill has requested a variance to the grandfather clause of the Kennel Ordinance. The variance would be required because the Hills have less than the required five acres for the Kennel License. The Planning and Zoning Board did review this request and recommended that this request be denied because the Hills have not proved the necessary hardship of the land and also be- cause it was determined that there was no valid pre- existing Kennel at the time of the ordinance change. Mr. Kluegel also noted that the dogs were not licensed at the time it came to his attention that the Hills were violating the Kennel Ordinance. Mr. Bisel called several of Mr. Hill's neighbors regarding whether or not the Hill's dogs were a nuisance. There seemed to be no problem in this area. In view of the fact that the Planning and Zoning Board recommended denial of the request and that the dogs were not originally li- censed, Mr. Bisel moved to deny the variance request. Mr. Marier seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. B. First Reading, Ordinance #04 - 86, Wayne Scanlan Proposal - Mr. Scanlan is owner of the White Bear Animal Hospital and is pro- posing to erect an animal clinic with facilities to house large animals for an extended period of time during treatment in the Light Industrial Zone south of the Red Door Antique facilities on Otter Lake Road. The present code does not allow animal clinics as a conditional use in the Light Industrial Zone, thereby prompt- ing this request for a code amendment. Mr. Kluegel explained if this request is granted, Mr. Scanlan will then present a request for a Conditional Use Permit and Site and Building Plan request for the animal clinic. The Planning and Zoning Board did recommend approval of the request. 1 Mr. Reinert felt this request was too vague. Did Mr. Scanlan pro- pose to build two huildings? Would large animals be boarded on -site? Since Mr. Scanlan was not present to answer these questions, Mr. Bisel moved to return the request to the Planning and Zoning Board to redefine the intent of the request. Mr. Marier seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. C. Set Public Hearing - Dennis Erickson Plat 1. Rezone from ER to R -1 - June 23, 1986, 7:30 P.M. 2. Amend Comprehensive Land Use Plan - June 23, 1986 7:35 P.M. 1 1 1 COUNCIL MEELING May 27, 1986 Page Twelve Mr. Schumacher explained that he has -requested-from-Metropolitan - Council the procedures for filing intent to change the Lino Lakes Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The Planning and Zoning Board did not want to delay the Erickson plat longer than necessary and have requested the Council set the necessary public hearings to speed the process. The Planning and Zoning Board moved to recommend approval of the rezone because it appears that the proposed loca- tion of the plat is a logical extension of the MUSA line being it is adjacent to the existing MUSA line. Mr. Reinert felt the planners recommendations on this plat were vague and did not present enough facts. Mr. Bisel said the Planning and Zoning Boards feels pressure is coming to develop the southern portion of Lino Lakes. The Board looked at this request now because of availability of services. Mr. Reinert said it looks like a shot in the dark. The Council should wait to see what Metropolitan Council says about spot de- velopment. Mr. Toddie explained, Ray Odie of Metro Waste Control, indicated that the MUSA line can be changed but for every addition there would have to be a like deletion in the MUSA boundary. As of now Metropolitan Council is proposing that the 1990 service boundary be the year 2000 boundary. Mayor Benson suggested the Council meet with the Planning and Zoning Board at their June 4, 1986 Meeting and discuss with them the fact that the Council needs to be better informed. Also, the Council feels that the Planning and Zoning Board has not ad- dressed the urban service district as fully as it should. Mr. Bohjanen moved to send the request for public hearings back to the Planning and Zoning Board to determine if the request fit into the Comprehensive Plan and address the trade off in the ur- ban service district. Mr. Marier seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. D. Roland Ford Update - Mr. Kluegel told the Council Mr. Ford has now complied with the court order but would like to stress to him his concern regarding hauling in more junk in the future. Mayor Benson commented Mr. Kluegel for his followup on this matter. Mr. Marier moved to have Mr. Kluegel write to Mr. Ford and explain the City will not allow any more accumulation of junk on the prop- erty and return Mr. Ford's $4,000.00 deposit. Mr. Bohjanen sec- onded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. 101 COUNCIL MEETING May 27, 1986 Page Thirteen CONSIDERATION OF WAYS AND LEANS COMMITTEE RECOLMMENDATIONS DEALING WITH SUPERVISORY AND NON -UNION PERSONNEL Mr. Bohjanen moved to accept the Ways and Means Committee recom- mendations except to add that the City Administrator be given a $4,000 /year raise; the Chief of Police a $3,400 /year raise; $1,400 effective January 1, 1986 and $2,000 effective August 1, 1986 and the Office Assistant a $3,000 /year raise. These raises to be effective January 1, 1986 except as already noted for the Chief of Police. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Mayor Benson said he could not support a $3,000.00 raise for an employee who was not evaluated by the Ways and Means Committee. He felt the -raise was exorbitant when other employees who have been with the City longer and have proved themselves received much less. Mr. Marier felt in order to retain this person the City must pay the larger salary. Mr. Reinert said he felt the intent of the motion was honorable but he did not see how the amount of the salary was arrived at, it did not seem fair. This method of granting raises was done in a haphazard manner. Voting on the motion, motion carried with Mayor Benson and Mr. Reinert voting, no. Mr. Bisel said he was concerned with the process of establishing employee salaries and asked that the process be streamlined in the future. Mr. Reinert suggested that maybe the entire Council should serve as a Ways and Means Committee. CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF AWARDING BID ON ONE TON TRUCK EQUIPI:MENT - DON VOLK Mr. Volk has received three bids on the plow equipment and three bids on the dump body. He is recommending that the Council accept the low bid on the snow plow equipment from Crysteel Truck Equip- ment and the second low bid from Crysteel Truck Equipment for the dump body. This will allow for all the equipment to be placed on the truck from one company. Mr. Marier moved to approve Mr. Volk's recommendations. Mr. Boh- janen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. ENGINEER'S REPORT - BOB TODDIE Mr. Toddie introduced Mr. Ron Stallberg who will be working with him and also gave the Council his background. 1 1 1 1 1 103 CODICIL MEETING May 27, 1986 Page Fourteen A. Update 24th Avenue Bridge (Border between Lino Lakes and Hugo) - Mr. Toddie has contacted the Washington County Engineer and has determined that the present bridge is 23 feet wide and should be 36 feet wide. The width deficiency is the reason the bridge is eligible for bridge funding through MnDOT. Lino Lakes portion of the cost of replacing the bridge will be approximately $6,000.00. Mr. Marier moved to approve replacement of the present.bridge. Mr..Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Bohjanen moved to continue the meeting until 10:15 P.M. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. B. Dennis Erickson Feasibility Study - Mr. Toddie has estimated that the cost of the feasibility_ for the, Erickson Plat will be $2,000.00. Mr. Marier moved in light of the Council action tonight regarding the rezone request and Comprehensive Land use Amendment request to bring this back to Erickson to see if he will pay for the study and if so go ahead with the study. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. C. Authorizing Advertising for, Bids for Rice Lake Estates Well - Mr. Bisel moved to approve the advertising for bids. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. ATTORNEY'S REPORT - BILL HAWKINS A. Reiling Easements for Rice Lake Estates Project - Mr. Hawkins explained that Mr, Reiling has been approached to give permanent easements for utilities for this project. Mr. Reiling has not been cooperative and Mr. Hawkins asked permission to proceed with eminent domain. Mr. Bohjanen moved to authorize Mr. Hawkins to proceed with eminent domain. Mr. Marier seconded the motion adding that maybe a second attempt should be made to see if he is willing to give the ease- ments. Motion carried unanimously. SECOND READING, ORDINANCE #03 - 86, DELETING 401.31 DEPOST FROM CITY CODE Mr. Bisel moved to approve the second reading of Ordinance #03 - 86 and dispense with the reading.

The Task Force comments will include enlarging the boundaries of the urban service district. Mr. Mar - ier asked that the Task Force comments be returned to the Task Force for further study. The Council will meet with the Task Force at 6:00 P.M. Wednesday June 4, 1986 and this item can be discussed at that time. NEW BUSINESS A.

Mr. Marier moved to compile a list of costs on West Shadow Lake Drive due to the flooding and authorized Mr. Schumacher to ap- ply for emergency funds for reimbursement of expenditures due to the recent flooding. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Mayor Benson noted the letter he received from the Civil Defense Director requesting payment of wages for Ciitil Defense personnel who operated the shuttle during the flooding. He noted if this were granted it would in effect be a policy change. Mayor Bern n suggested including this in the costs submitted for reimbursem. t. Mr. Marier moved to adjourn at 10:20 P.M. Mr. Bohjanen seconde the motion. Aye. These minutes were considered and approved on June 9, 1986. Marilyn`'G. Anderson, City Clerk
