Council members present: Bisel, Bohjanen, Marier, Reinert. City Attorney Bill Hawkins, Engineer Ron Stahlberg, Public Works Director Don Volk, Build- ing Official Pete Kluegel, Administrator Randy Schumacher and Clerk - Treasurer Marilyn Anderson were also present.

Regular Meeting - January 12, 1987 - Mr. Bisel moved to approve these minutes. Mr. Reinert seconded the motion. Mr. Reinert asked that a correction be made to the sixth paragraph, page eleven. He asked that this sentence be added: "Mr. Reinert objected to phase I and phase II being considered in one motion especially when it was already stated that the Council would not deal with phase II until Mr. Uhde requested preliminary plat approval for that phase. He felt this matter was being handled wrong." Voting on the motion; motion approved on the corrected minutes. CONSIDERATION AND APPROVAL OF DISBURSEMENTS - JANUARY 26, 1987 Mr. Bohjanen moved to approve the disbursements as presented. Mr. Marier seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. OPEN MIKE A. Ron Conway, 6280 Red Maple Lane - Mr. Conway was not in the audience at this time, but did address the Council later in the meeting. B. Mr. and Mrs. Carl Cadotti, 7615 Jeanne Drive - Mr. Cadotti explained that he had obtained a building permit for a 792 square foot detached garage. However, when his contractor installed the footings, he prepared for a 960squarefoot garage since this was the size that he had originally proposed to build. He has started construction on the garage and Mr. Kluegel has placed a stop order on the garage because it is larger than provided for in the City Code. He asked the Council what he could do to finish construction on his garage. He felt this was a misunderstanding between himself and his contractor and was not purposely done to violate the City Code. 098 COUNCIL MEETING January 26, 1987 After discussing Mr. Cadotti's application for the permit and explaining similar cases brought before the Council in the past which had been required to be brought into conformance, Mayor Benson suggested that Mr. Cadotti had basis for a lawsuit against his contractor. Mr. Cadotti asked if the Code could be changed. Mayor Benson said this would be hard to justify to the other homeowners who were required to conform to the City Code. Mayor Benson told Mr. and Mrs. Cadotti that they could either apply for a variance or bring the garage into conformity with the City Code. CONSIDERATION OF ANIMAL CONTRACT The City Council has received two proposals for animal control services; one from Lake Animal Care and the second from Knollton Kennels. This matter had been considered at the January 12th Council meeting and tabled for further information. Mr. Bisel asked for clarification regarding pick -up of animals. It was explained that normally Knollton Kennels only picks up animals when a designated person makes the request. This is usually someone in the Police Department. Lake Animal Care will pick up animals when citizens call. Mr. Reinert felt the public relations at Lake Animal Care was poor. Mayor Benson reviewed the memorandum submitted by the Clerk regarding the survey she did with other cities using the services of both kennels and the comments made by the Anoka County Humane Society. After further discussion, Mr. Marier moved to table this matter and ask representatives from Knollton Kennels and Lake Animal Care to appear at the next Council meeting to answer some of the Councils concerns. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Ron Conway, 6280 Red Maple Lane - Mr. Conway apologized for being late and addressed some of his concerns to the Council regarding the proposed preliminary plat of Reshanau Lake Estates South. His concerns were: 1) How steep are the banks to the ponds, 2) Concerned about keeping children out of the ponds, 3) Will the ponds lower the water table in the area, 4) What are the depths of the ponds, 5) How full will the ponds be during a wet spring, 7) what will the erosion control be, 8) Will there be an erosion problem on the south 1 1 1 COUNCIL MEETING January 26, 1987 pond, 9) Who will be in charge of the association fees, 10) Who oversees the things that will be done by the homeowners association, 11) Will water and sewer be made available to Colonial Woods. He would like the City to be responsible to see that the homeowners association is performing their duties correctly. Mayor Benson asked that Mr. Conway submit his list of questions to the City Engineer and Mr. Stahlberg will address them in detail.

He moved to reduce the Board from seven to five members to expidite the matters that come before this Board. Mr. Reinert seconded the motion. Mr. Hawkins noted that if this Board is established by ordinance, an ordinance will have to be prepared reducing the number of Board members. Mr. Marier felt that a seven member board be maintained to assure a quorum. Mayor Benson said he has wrestled with this idea and noted his reasoning. 100 COUNCIL MEETING January 26, 1987 Voting on the motion; motion carried with Mayor Benson and Mr. Marier voting no. Mayor Benson noted application from Thomas Weirens, Jeff Joyer and Elmer Crohn for position on the P & Z Board.

The City Administrator was asked to track the attendance at this Board and if there is a problem, report back to the Council so that corrections can be made immediately. He also asked that the present P & Z Board be polled to see if they want a five or seven member board. Mr. Marier said he would also poll the board. Mr. Schumacher will come back before the Council with a recommendation for a staff representative for the board.

Mayor Benson asked if this Council is looking at five member boards. Mr. Bohjanen said he was in favor of a five member board. Mr. Reinert said it is his under- standing that there may be a problem getting a quorum on this baord, but did favor smaller boards. Mr. Bisel said he had no problem with different size boards. Maybe a five member board for the P & Z could be on a trial basis. Mr. Marier preferred seven member boards. Mr. Bohjanen said he would like a seven member Park Board. Mr. Bohjanen moved to appoint Candace Toffoli as the seventh Park Board member. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Centennial Fire District - no change Cable Commission - no change Economic Development Committee COUNCIL MEETING January 26, 1987 Mayor Benson noted this Board has not had any particular direction and he felt he was partly to blame. He asked that the Council members seek out people who will support Council plans. Mr. Marier moved to table this item until the February 23rd Council meeting. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Reinert suggested this committee could be larger than seven members so they could appoint subcommittees. Senior Center Council - Mr. Bisel moved to endorse the Senior Council. Mr. Reinert seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Lino Lakes Civil Defense - no change Charter Commission - Mayor Benson noted two members of the Commission no longer live in Lino Lakes, Mary Bunker and James Flannery. He also noted Mr. Reinert is still a member and felt he should serve as a liason. Mr. Marier moved to appoint three new members and retain a Council member as liason. Mr. Reinert seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Mayor Benson said there still is a great need for this Commission and asked Mr. Schumacher to contact each member to determine their interest. Community Advisory Committee for the Prison - no change PUBLIC HEARING - TAX INCREMENT FINANCING - RESOLUTION NO. 01 -87 Mayor Benson called the public hearing to order at 8:28 PM. Mr. Schumacher displayed a map of the proposed Tax Increment Financing District and explained those are two issues for consideration in this proposal. One issue is approval of establishing a project area for Tax Increment Financing (TIF) represented by the Urban Service District II. This means that the City wantsto plan economic development and growth in this area by rising TIF. This planning area can be amended by the Council from time to time. The second issue is establish- ing housing district #1 -1. This will create increment dollars that the City will use for improving and promoting an economic tax base in the planning district. The goal is to attract private investment in the planning area through redevelopment 1 1 1 1 1 1 COUNCIL MEETING January 26, 1987 promote housing and to increase employment. The Planning and Zoning Board has reviewed this plan and it is consistant with the Comprehensive Land Use Plan. The proposal consists of capturing the tax increment off of Rice Lake Estates. This means the tax generated by the Rice Estates Area before the improvement and development was about $20,000.00. Once the 100 new homes and possibly the commercial development is completed, the tax base will be considerably more than it is now. The City will capture 100% of this new tax base. To promote economic development in the tax increment district, sewer and water utility services will be extended up through the Lino Industrial Park, Correctional Facility and the quad- rant where Mr. Schumacher is presently working with Roger Jensen to promote the development of a shopping center. He noted that because of the City Charter, there has been a problem of extending utility services in the past in this area. TIF will allow landowners who do not want to pay assess- ments to hook up at a later date and the tax increment will pick up their portion. Later when the landowner wishes to hook up, he will pay his assessment plus an index charge. Presently, Mr. Schumacher is working with five or six different land owners who want to develop their property and need services to their property and are willing to pay their fair share of assessments. Mr. Bisel was concerned that this project will involve a great deal of the Administrator's time and take away from his present duties. Mr. Schumacher said it would be difficult to tell just how much time would be involved and he has the Assistant City Administrator helping him. Mr. Marier was concerned about such a large portion of the City being involved in the district. Mr. Schumacher explained this provided a good planning area and includes two major intersections in Lino Lakes. Mr. Marier suggested limiting this area and at a later date establishing a district in the area of 35E and Main Street. Mr. Schumacher explained the Council could set districts wherever they felt it feasible. There was no one in the audience to speak on this matter. Mr. Bisel moved to close the public hearing at 8:42 PM. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. 101 COUNCIL MEETING January 26, 1987 Mr. Bisel moved to adopt Resolution #01 -87 establishing Tax Increment District #1 and District #1 -1 Housing District. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried with Mr. Marier voting no.

Dated: January 26, 1987. Attest: City Administrator CONSIDERATION OF AWARDING BIDS FOR DUMP BODY.AND SNOW PLOWING EQUIPMENT Mr. Volk explained the first bid is for snow plowing equipment. There were four bidders, all followed the specifications and are reputable businesses. He recommended the Council approve the low bid. Mr. Marier moved to accept the low bid of $9,758.00 from Crystal Truck Equipment. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Mr. Bisel asked why he did not combine the bids for the equipment with the bid for the truck. Mr. Volk explained it has been his experience'that the truck dealer does as he did here and asks for bids. He then adds on a percentage for his work. This process eliminates the dealer percentage. 103 COUNCIL MEETING January 26, 1987 Voting on the motion, carried unanimously. The second consideration is awarding bids for a dump body and hoist. He recommended the low bid. Mr. Marier moved to accept the low bid of $3,868.00 from J- Craft, Inc. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. The Council took a five minute break at 8:55 PM. ORDINANCE NO. 13 -86, CIRCLE PINES GAS FRANCHISE Mr. Schumacher explained as directed on December 22, 1986, he sent the proposed franchise to Circle Pines with instructions that this Council receive a reply within 30 days. Circle Pines would not accept the proposed franchise with the buy -out language proposed by Lino Lakes. Mr. Schumacher, Mr. Hawkins and Mr. Marier had spent time explaining to Circle Pines that Lino Lakes could not accept their language because of the City Charter. Mr. Jim Keinath, Cricle Pines Administrator, was in the audience and explained that Circle Pines agreed to the 7% franchise fee based upon the contigent that they have a willing buyer in case they wanted to get out of the franchise. He noted Circle Pines would like to negotiate further. Mr. Hawkins explained he could not recommend that Lino Lakes accept Circle Pines' position. He did feel Circle Pines' position was unreasonable and did not see where there could be a compromise unless there was some clear way for Lino Lakes to get out of the acquisition situation. He said he felt very strongly from a legal standpoint that this should not be accepted. Mr. Marier felt that this situation be given one more try so both cities come up with something they can live with. He asked that he meet with the mayors of both cities, the Administrators and Mr. Danheim. Mayor Benson said he was not against meeting again but he felt the Circulating Pines greatly influenced Circle Pines decisions and needed assurances that Mr. Gibas is not telling the City of Circle Pines what to do. Mr. Schumacher will schedule a meeting as requested by Mr. Marier. Mr. Marier moved to table this item until the February 9, 1987, Council meeting. 1 1 1 1 1 COUNCIL MEETING January 26, 1987 PLANNING AND ZONING REPORT House move -in, Robert Lichtscheidl - Mr. Kluegel explained Mr. Lichtscheidl has requested a permit to move a house from Roseville to his lot on Laurene Avenue. The house is twenty - three years old, 1,110 square feet and meets all of the require- ments of the Code. The structure is in excellent condition and is compatible with the present homes. The house movers are properly licensed and bonded. The P & Z Board has recommended approval of this request. Mr. Marier moved to approve the request for a house move -in permit for Mr. Lichtscheidl. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Ordinance No. 17 -86, Second Reading, Central Business - Mr. Schumacher explained that the P & Z Board met January 21, 1987, and considered this ordinance. The first reading had been held at the Council and then it was forwarded to the P & Z Board for their consideration. The Board felt this ordinance needed more consideration and asked that a variance be granted to Ross' Liquors until this ordinance was researched and comments made. If the Council would not approve the variance, then the P & Z would endorse the ordinance. Mr. Reinert felt that a variance would be in order now until it can be determined how the Central Business District will fit into the City. Mr. Schumacher explained it was the intent of the Planner to use this district when considering renewal of older existing structures. Mr. Bisel noted that there are six conditions that must be met before a variance can be granted. The Ross proposal did not fit into this situation. He did not see a problem with the Central Business District. Mr. Marier felt more time and consideration should be given to forming this district. Mr. Marier moved to grant Ross' Liquors a variance, noting this variance will not bestow special privileges on Ross' Liquors because of these special circumstances: Anoka County is taking additional easement from this property and this action would create a hardship by proposing a retaining wall which will restrict access to the business, disrupt snow removal, and cause the present building to be non - conforming regarding set -back requirements and create additional hardship by making it impossible for the owner to meet all aspects of the City Code. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. 104 COUNCIL MEETING January 26, 1987 Mr. Bisel asked Mr. Hawkins if all the criteria in the variance code was met by this motion. Mr. Hawkins said he could not tell the Council what route to take regarding Ross' Liquors, however, the criteria applied to this variance must be applied throughout the City. Mayor Benson said that since the proposal submitted by the County is hazardous and granting the variance is not due to an economic situation, the Council is not conferring any special privileges. Voting on the motion, motion carried unanimously. Mr. Marier moved to include the second reading of Ordinance #17 -86 in the decision with the Comprehensive Lane Use Plan Amendments. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Ordinance #17 -86 is to be returned to the P & Z Board to be reviewed. Ross' Liquors, Site and Building Plan - Mr. Bisel moved to approve the site and building plan. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Set Public Hearing, Comprehensive Land Use Plan Amendments - Mr. Marier moved to set the public hearing for 7:30 PM, February 9, 1987. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. After determining that the publishing requirements cannot be met for the 9th, Mr. Bohjanen moved to amend the motion to read 7:30 PM, February 23, 1987. Mr. Reinert seconded the moti_.cn. Motion carried unanimously. ENGINEER'S REPORT - RON STAHLBERG Shoreview Joint Powers Agreement - Mr. Davidson and Mr. Schumacher met with Shoreview some time ago to prepare a joint powers agreement that will allow extension of sewer and water into Lino Lakes from Shoreview. Mr. Hawkins had reviewed the agreement and had recommended some changes. The changes were suggested to Shoreview and they felt they were not significant enough to change the agreement. The matter died at that point. Recently there has been several requests to extend services from Shoreview. Mr. Stahlberg explained he would recommend that utility services be extended rather than allow installation of wells and septic systems. Mayor Benson reminded the Council that the Council held hearings several years ago on utilities in this area, but the citizens felt it was too costly. 1 1 1 1 1 COUNCIL MEETING January 26, 1987 Mr. Kluegel said he has been working with a contractor who is in the process of building a new house on Ash Street and wants to connect to the Shoreview services. The contractor said he would be ready to hook up March 15th. Mr. Stahlberg recommended that Lino Lakes attempt to negotiate the joint powers agreement with Shoreview to service this area and purse getting the interceptor to this area from Shoreview. Mr. Marier moved to instruct Mr. Schumacher to purse a joint powers agreement with Shoreview and bring the matter back to the Council at the next meeting. Mr. Bisel seconded the motion. Motion car- ried unanimously. Mark Hurd Contour Maps - Engineer Will Provide Prices and Recom- mendations - Mr. Stahlberg explained that Mark Hurd has flown the City and has prepared photos of it for Anoka County. It is there- fore most cost effective to have him prepare contour maps which will be used for sewer and water system studies. A sample of what the maps would look like was displayed on the Council wall. Mr. Stahlberg presented a colored map on the overhead projector indicating four different areas to be mapped and the costs for each area. The cost would be approximately $1750.00 to $2250.00 per half section and if the entire area were completed the cost would be more than $60,000.00. He explained that each colored area rep- resented a specific project and some of the mapping costs could be billed to these projects except for the blue area which would have to be included in the 1988 budget. In addition the City would sell these maps to various developers, thereby recouping some more of the costs. Mr. Marier asked Mr. Stahlberg to put his proposal in writing in- cluding total costs of each area and the method of financing. Mr. Marier moved to extend the meeting until 10:20 P.M. Mr. Boh- janen seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Status of 80th Street - Mr. Stahlberg noted that the County has the street construction plan as well as the bridge construction plan so that it can be bid as one project under the supervision of the County. A joint powers agreement will be needed for this project. There had been some right -of -way problems but all are solved except for one. This concerns the Carlson property where a culvert was placed under 80th Street and water runs north into their fields creating washouts. Mr. Volk has met with Mrs. Carlson and feels an agreement can be reached if the culvert is moved to the west property line running north to Hardwood Creek. Mr. Volk said he would like to try and negotiate with the County to dig this ditch. 105 COUNCIL MEETING January 26, 1987 Mr. Schumacher noted he had met with Mrs. Langfeld and she had indicated to him that if bridge bonding is not funded by the legislature this year this project will be delayed another year. Mr. Stahlberg and Mr. Volk will negotiate with Mrs. Carlson re- garding the ditch and bring this information back to the Council. Status of Rice Lake Estates - Mr. Stahlberg told the Council that Rice Lake Estates is complete except for the second lift of black- top on the street. All the pipes have been tested, the pumps are in the lift station and some electrical has yet to be completed, the pump house has to be built and the clean up and seeding will be done this spring. The manholes in the street may need to be adjusted. Update Main Street Curb and Gutter - Mr. Stahlberg explained this project is scheduled for bid letting in the spring and construc- tion to be completed in 1987. This is to be an agenda item for the next Council Meeting with notices sent to all landowners. Request to Extend Utility Services on Ware Road - A request has been received to extend services to a five acre parcel on Ware Road. Mr. Schumacher explained that if the Council so wishes a feasibility study can be made with the landowner paying the ex- penses for the study. Mr. Stahlberg recommended proceeding with the feasibility study on the assumption that an agreement with Shoreview can be reached and the landowner understands that he must hook up to the Lino Lakes system when it becomes available. ATTORNEY'S REPORT - BILL HAWKINS Mr. Hawkins did not have a report. OLD BUSINESS Cable. Cast February 9, 1987 Council Meeting - Mr. Schumacher told the Council that this meeting will be taped but not broadcasted so that the Council can look at the tape and make a decision for future cablecasting. Park Boad Chairman - Mayor Benson said Ray Johnson will remain as Park Board Chairman. Planning and Zoning Board Chairman - Mayor Benson said it has been brought to his attention that if the Council wishes this Board to become a five member Board an ordinance will have to be drafted to effect the change. 1 1 1 1 1 COUNCIL MEETING January 26, 1987 Mr. Bisel moved to direct the City Administrator to draft an ordinance changing the Planning and Zoning Board from seven mem- bers to five members. Mr. Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried with Mr. Marier voting no. Roland Ford - Mr. Kluegel explained Mr. Ford has again violated the nuisance ordinance. Mr. Ford has indicated to Mr. Kluegel he intends to further intensify his operation. Mr. Marier moved to direct the City Attorney to follow the procedure to enforce the City Ordinances in this matter. Mr. Reinert seconded the motion. Motion carried with Mr. Bisel abstaining.
