Kuether moved to approve these minutes as presented. Council
Member Neal seconded the motion. Motion carried with Council
member Bohjanen abstaining.
OPEN MIKE
Darla Lowell, 66th Street Improvement - Ms. Lowell explained that
the Council will be considering at the next Council meeting
whether or not to approve the 66th Street improvement. She also
explained that about a month ago she appeared before the Design
Review Board (DRB) and asked for either a variance to the present
street design code or a change in the code itself. She was
denied both requests and is now asking that the Council review
this matter again. Ms. Lowell explained that 24th Avenue
(Elmcrest Avenue) is proposed to be improved at lesser standards
than currently required by City Code. She also noted that
previously Reiling Road was installed at a lesser standard
because according to the feasibility report there were not enough
residents to financially support the improvement. However, when
dealing with her situation, there is no suggestion or move by
anyone to consider lesser standards for 66th Street. Ms. Lowell
also noted that DRB Chair Chase suggested that maybe this street
PAGE 1
003
004
COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 11, 1991
should not be constructed at this time. She noted that he and
all of his neighbors signed the petition for the road in 1989.
She also said she felt that since she had started the procedure
prior to the upgrading of the street standards code, her request
should be grandfathered and the street should be constructed
according to the standards that were in place at the time she
originally petitioned for the improvement. Ms. Lowell noted that
she has put a lot of time and money into this project, she is not
a developer and the situation has been a real strain. She also
noted that the Council has approved a four (4) lot subdivision
based upon the installation of 66th Street. Ms. Lowell asked the
Council to consider lesser standards for 66th Street.
Mayor Bisel noted that the Council does not take action on
matters brought under Open Mike. He expressed concern regarding
her efforts. Mayor Bisel explained that the DRB could not
recommend a variance because six (6) findings of fact could not
be presented. Ms. Lowell asked if there will be discussions by
the Council on March 25, 1991 regarding what type of street would
be installed. Mayor Bisel said that if she and the adjoining
land owner do not want to construct 66th Street as proposed by
the City Engineer, then her own new home can be serviced by a
driveway.
Police Department National Safety Council Special Five (5) Year
Award - Mayor Bisel asked Chief Campbell and Community Service
Officer Ed Belland to come to the podium to receive this award.
Mayor Bisel explained that this is a special award recognizing
five (5) years of special safety work involving the Lino Lakes
Police Department and children in the service area. Chief
Campbell explained that CSO Belland is highly involved with the
National Safety Program and he is very proud of the work
performed by CSO Belland. Chief Campbell also thanked the Lino
Lakes Lions Club, the Lioness Club and the VFW for their support
of the National Safety Council. Mayor Bisel thanked CSO Belland
for his work with the National Safety Council.
CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION NO. 22 - 91 URGING THE RECOGNITION
AND SUPPORT OF EARTHKEEPER'S CLEANUP EFFORTS IN CONJUNCTION WITH
ARBOR DAY, APRIL 27, 1991
Mr. Volk explained that the resolution is in support of the clean
up efforts performed by the Earthkeeper's organization in Lino
Lakes, Lexington, Circle Pines, Centerville and Blaine. As last
year, Lino Lakes will be the host city for the project. As the
resolution states, roadsides, parkland and shorelines are cleaned
by approximately 500 volunteers. The cost to this City will be
minimal. Mayor Bisel felt this program was well done. Council
Member Neal noted that volunteers come from all five (5)
communities and Commission Langfeld is the honorary chairperson

of the group.
Council Member Reinert moved to adopt Resolution No. 22 - 91.
Council Member Kuether seconded the motion. The Clerk read the
resolution. Motion carried unanimously.
Mr. Volk explained an ad for volunteers will be placed in the
local papers and on cable TV. Council Member Neal asked that a
new welcome flag and a new City flag be purchased for this
occasion.
Resolution No. 22 - 91 can be found at the end of these minutes.
PLANNER'S REPORT - JOHN MILLER
Set Public Hearing for Comprehensive Land Use Plan Amendment
(Lake Amelia Town Homes) - Mr. Miller explained that this matter
was discussed at the last Council meeting. It was determined
that there was insufficient information to set the public hearing
at that time. The cost of the utilities for the Lake Amelia Town
Homes has now been determined and the reservations regarding the
project have been answered. The project appears to be feasible
and Mr. Birch (developer of Lake Amelia Town Homes) is continuing
to complete all of the paper work involved in the improvement.
In addition, the land area involved in the improvement has been
reduced to include only property owned by Mr. Birch. There are
47 acres involved and it is likely that the MWCC will require 47
acres be deleted from the MUSA Boundary in another area of Lino
Lakes. This can be accomplished in the area south of Main Street
and east of I35E. Council Member Reinert asked that an economic
impact review be made on this development prior to the public
hearing.
Council Member Reinert moved to set the public hearing for April
8, 1991, 7:00 P.M. Council Member Kuether seconded the motion.
Motion carried unanimously.
CONSIDERATION 1992 CENTENNIAL FIRE DISTRICT BUDGET, RANDY
SCHUMACHER
Mr. Schumacher explained that the Centennial Fire District Joint
Powers Agreement requires that the Centennial Fire District
prepare an operating budget one (1) year in advance. Chief
Bennett has prepared the 1992 Budget which reflects a 1% increase
over the 1991 Budget. Mr. Schumacher felt Chief Bennett has
presented a good budget which has been approved by the Steering
Committee and the City of Circle Pines. He recommended Council
approval. Council Member Reinert said he is more satisfied with
the current budget process and noted that Chief Bennett has
worked in some internal changes in the budget which will add to a
PAGE 3
005
- 006
COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 11, 1991
more efficient operation of the District. Also Chief Bennett has
added eight (8) new Lino Lakes fire fighters to the District.
Council Member Bohjanen moved to adopt the 1992 Centennial Fire
District Budget. Council Member Neal seconded the motion. On a
roll call vote, motion carried unanimously.
Council Member Kuether noted the major change in the budget
regarded salaries for fire fighters. They now will have annual
raises similar to what other city employees are getting.
CONTINUED PUBLIC HEARING, REZONE, TOWN HOMES OF WENZEL FARMS,
FIRST READY, ORDINANCE NO. 04 - 91 AND NO. 06 - 91
Mr. Miller explained that this matter was considered at the
February 25, 1991 Council meeting and continued until this
evening. The Wenzel Farms Town Homes consist of approximately 19
acres of land and the developer proposes to build 75 town homes.
The land first must be rezoned from Single Family Residential (R-
1) to Medium Density (R -3) and then from R -3 to Planned Unit
Development (R -5). Town home plans and landscaping plans were
included in the Council packets. Mr. Miller explained that the
proposal is for quality housing.
Mayor Bisel opened the public hearing at 7:06 P.M. There was no
one in the audience to speak for or against the rezone request.
Mr. Kirk Corson, representing the developer explained that the
proposal will allow less than four (4) units per acre. He noted
that the density would be similar to the density allowed in the
single family residential districts.
Council Member Bohjanen moved to close the public hearing at 7:07
P.M. Council Member Neal seconded the motion. Motion carried
with Council Member Kuether abstaining.
Council Member Reinert moved to approve the first reading of
Ordinance No. 04 - 91. Council Member Bohjanen seconded the
motion. On a roll call vote, motion carried with Council Member
Kuether abstaining.
Council Member Bohjanen moved to approve the first reading of
Ordinance No. 06 - 91. Council Member Neal seconded the motion.
On a roll call vote, motion carried with Council Member Kuether
abstaining.

COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 11, 1991
Mr. Miller explained that the pideliminary plat for the single
family residences was approved by the Council on January 14,
1991. This preliminary plat is for the town homes. He explained
that the plat contains approximately 19 to 20 acres and 75 town
homes are proposed for the area. The plat has been reviewed by
the DRB and the Park Board and all items are resolved and both
boards recommend approval. Mr. Miller noted that one concern of
the developer is whether the improvements should be privately or
publicly installed. This matter will be considered after the
public hearing.
Mayor Bisel opened the public hearing at 7:14 P.M. There was no
one in the audience to speak for or against the proposed
preliminary plat. Mr. Hawkins explained that he had received a
copy of town home association by -laws today. He noted that they
must be approved and the developer's agreement must be completed
prior to the approval of the final plat.
Council Member Bohjanen moved to close the public hearing at 7:16
P.M. Council Member Neal seconded the motion. Motion carried
with Council Member Kuether abstaining.
Council Member Bohjanen moved to accept the preliminary plat of
Wenzel Farms Town Homes contingent upon the comments of the DRB.
Council Member Neal seconded the motion. On a roll call vote,
motion carried with Council Member Kuether abstaining.
Mr. Miller addressed the matter of private versus publicly
installed improvements. He noted that on October 8, 1990 the
Council took action that would no longer allow developers to
install their own improvements unless the Council gave
authorization prior to the preliminary plat approval. Mr. Miller
noted that the City is currently involved in litigation with one
developer regarding his developer installed improvements. Mr.
Schneider noted that there have been problems with three (3) of
the last four (4) developer installed improvements. Mr. Miller
recommended that improvements be installed publicly for the
Wenzel Farms development.
Council Member Reinert said there was considerable reason for
developing this policy and moved to continue the established
policy as outlined in the October 8, 1990 Council minutes.
Council Member Bohjanen seconded the motion. Council Member
Bohjanen asked if there was a difference in the cost of the
improvement. Mr. Miller explained that if the developer installs
the improvement as the City would, the costs would be similar.
He noted that if the improvements are done publicly, the interest
rate on the bonds are likely to be lower than what the developer
can borrow for. However, the construction may be quicker if the
improvements are developer installed.

COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 11, 1991
Mr. Corson said that when the project was originally initiated,
it was with the perception that the improvements would be
privately installed. He said that the developer would like
control of the improvements so that he can be assured that the
improvements will meet the quality standards he has set. Also,
the developer would like to let bids now. This would save time
and cost. Mayor Bisel explained that this is the first town
house improvement in Lino Lakes and the Council would like to
work with the developer to be assured that there is quality
development.
BOY SCOUT TROOP NO. 136
Mayor Bisel noted that Boy Scout Troop No. 136 was visiting the
Council this evening. The Scout leader explained that the boys
are working on their Citizenship of the Community badges. Each
boy introduced himself.
FIRST READING OF ORDINANCE NO. 07 - 91 AMENDING THE CABARET
LICENSE ORDINANCE
Chief Campbell explained that he and Mr. Hawkins have reviewed
the current City Code regulating dancing and entertainment at
establishments issued either on -sale beer or on -sale liquor
licenses. He noted that many complaints and concerns were
expressed to the City over the years concerning instances where
liquor establishments have promoted activities with live music
outside of establishments in parking lots or adjacent property.
The proposed ordinance amendment would restrict such
entertainment to inside the building of the license holder. This
would eliminate the complaints and would keep the liquor
disbursement by the licensed establishment in line with the state
liquor laws that provide for liquor to be served only in the
premises.
Council Member Kuether asked what this would do to the churches
that have annual picnics with dancing. Mr. Hawkins said that
they could not serve beer or intoxicating beverages outside of
the building and could not hold a dance and serve such beverages
outside of the building. He noted that this ordinance amendment
only restricts establishments that sell beer or liquor. If a
church was to hold a dance without a beer license or without an
intoxicating liquor license, this ordinance amendment would not
affect them.
Council Member Neal noted that the 49 Club held an outside dance
during 1990 and noted that there were uniformed police officers
on the premise hired by the owner. He asked if this type of
entertainment will be prohibited if this ordinance amendment is
enacted. Mr. Hawkins said that there would be no dancing in
PAGE 6

009
COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 11, 1991
parking lots where intoxicating liquor is served. Chief Campbell
explained that his department received a number of calls
regarding the event at the 49 Club. The ordinance amendment
would make sure that these occurrences do not become a nuisance.
He noted that usually when a dance is conducted outside of the
building, the guests want the bar to be located outside of the
building. It is harder to restrict the purchase of liquor by
minors or intoxicated persons and this violates the intent of the
state statutes. Chief Campbell stated history shows that if
entertainment is moved outside, liquor moves outside as well.
Council Member Reinert moved to approve the first reading of
Ordinance No. 07 - 91 and dispense with the reading. Council
Member Kuether seconded the motion. On a roll call vote, motion
carried with Council Member Neal voting no.
ENGINEER'S REPORT
Resolution No. 18 - 91 Ordering a Feasibility Report for Sunrise
Drive Improvements from Fairmont Drive to Elm Street, Darrell
Schneider - Mr. Schneider explained that during the 1990
construction season, the developer of Sunnygate 2nd Addition,
Good Value Homes paid for the installation of the sanitary sewer,
watermain, storm sewer and a portion of the gravel base in the
Sunrise Drive right -of -way from Fairmont Drive to Elm Street. As
discussed with the Council on October 8, 1990, the remainder of
the street construction on Sunrise Drive would be done as a
public improvement project. In order to start the public
improvement project, a feasibility report will be needed, a
public hearing conducted and the Council will be required to act
on the improvement.
Council Member Bohjanen moved to adopt resolution No. 18 - 91 as
presented and dispense with the reading. Council Member Reinert
seconded the motion. On a roll call vote, motion carried
unanimously.
Resolution No. 18 - 91 can be found at the end of these minutes.
Resolution No. 19 - 91 Receiving a Feasibility Report and Calling
an Improvement Hearing for Wenzel Farms, and Resolution No. 24 -
91 Ordering Plans and Specifications for Wenzel Farms - Mr.
Schneider noted that the preliminary plats for Wenzel Farms
single family residential development and Wenzel Farms Town Homes
development have now been approved by the City Council. A
feasibility report for both developments has been completed and
was included in the Council packets for this meeting. Mr.
Schneider has met with the developer and it appears that the
final plats for both developments may be ready for presentation
to the Council on March 25, 1991. The schedule in the
PAGE 7
COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 11, 1991
feasibility may be updated so that construction can start
earlier. However, it is necessary for the Council to order plans
and specifications this evening in order to move the improvement
along at a faster rate. Mr. Schneider recommended that the
Council order plans and specifications this evening contingent
upon completion of the developer's agreement and contingent upon
the developer providing a petition waiving 50 of the 60 waiting
day period.
Council Member Reinert moved to adopt Resolution No. 19 - 91 and
Resolution No. 24 - 91 as recommended by the Mr. Schneider.
Council Member Bohjanen seconded the motion. On a roll call
vote, motion carried with Council Member Kuether abstaining.
Resolution No. 19 - 91 and Resolution No. 24 - 91 can be found at
the end of these minutes.
PARK BOARD REPORT
FIRST READING, Ordinance No. 15 - 90 Regulating the Planting,
Maintenance and Removal of Trees and Shrubs in Public Streets and
Other Municipal Property - Mr. Volk explained that the Council
saw a draft of this ordinance on October 8, 1990. Basically the
ordinance describes what residents can and cannot do with trees
on public property. Mr. Volk noted Section 1007.12 PROTECTION OF
TREES. This section refers to a tree preservation plan to be
submitted by all developers, builders and soil disturbance
project area facilitates. This plan must agree with the City of
Lino Lakes Tree Preservation Administrative Guidelines Policy.
This is the only section in the ordinance that refers to trees
other than public trees. A committee was formed to review the
original draft and a few minor changes were made.
Council Member Reinert referred to Section 1007.10 PUBLIC TREE
CARE and asked if any standards were being written regarding tree
care. Mr. Volk explained that prior to any tree care or
maintenance, a permit must be obtained. At that time the City
would review with the property owner how the concern must be
handled. Mr. Volk also noted that a Tree Preservation Policy is
being developed and this policy addresses maintenance of trees.
Council Member Reinert moved to approve the first reading of
Ordinance No. 15 - 90 and dispense with the reading. Council
Member Neal seconded the motion. On a roll call vote, motion
carried unanimously.
Ordinance No. 15 - 90 can be found at the end of these minutes.
FIRST READING, Ordinance No. 05 - 91 Amending the City Code by
Changing the Park Dedication Fee - Mr. Volk explained that park
PAGE 8
1
1
1
1

1
COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 11, 1991
dedication money is needed to keep up with the increased costs of
land prices. The Park Board investigated several option in
obtaining the need money. A joint Park Board /DRB meeting was
held February 4, 1991 to discuss this matter and they are
recommending to Council that the park dedication formula remain
the same with the price per dwelling unit being increased to a
minimum of $600.00. Mr. Volk explained that 17 suburban cities
were surveyed during the investigation. Twelve cities have
higher fees than Lino Lakes and five (5) have lower fees. Some
of those cities are considering increasing their current fees.
Council Member Kuether asked Mr. Volk to survey surrounding
cities to see what their park dedication fees are. Council
Member Neal felt that cities that have more parks charge higher
fees. Mr. Volk explained that this city is seeing a lot of
developers who want to give park money in lieu of park land as
their park dedication. That usually indicated that the park fee
has not keep up to land values.
Council Member Reinert noted that the Council will have the
opportunity to look at this matter again during the second
reading of the ordinance amendment and moved to approve the first
reading of Ordinance No. 05 - 91 and dispense with the reading.
Council Member Neal seconded the motion. The matter of when the
new ordinance should take effect was discussed. Mr. Schumacher
suggested that the deadline should coincide with the submission
of the preliminary plat. Mr. Volk was asked to prepare a
proposal on this matter and present it to the Council at the time
of the second reading of the ordinance amendment.
Council Member Kuether suggested that the increase in park
dedication fee be phased in over a certain period of time. Mr.
Schumacher explained that this could be considered at the time of
the second reading.
Voting on the motion, motion carried unanimously.
Ordinance No. 05 - 91 can be found at the end of these minutes.
Consideration of Establishing a Comprehensive Park Plan Committee
- Mr. Volk explained that the staff was directed to form a
committee to begin the process of establishing a Comprehensive
Park Plan. A list of suggested members was given to the Council.
Mayor Bisel asked that Council members also sit in on the
meetings of this committee from time to time. He felt this was
an important issue.
Council Member Kuether moved to establish a committee as
recommended by Mr. Volk. Council Member Neal seconded the
motion. Voting on the motion, motion carried unanimously.

ATTORNEY'S REPORT - BILL HAWKINS
Resolution No. 23 - 91 Authorizing the City Attorney to Proceed
with Eminent Domain on Lot 17, Block 2, Carole's Estates, Second
Addition - Mr. Hawkins explained a resolution will not be
necessary. A motion by the Council will be sufficient. The lot
mentioned is located next to the lots owned by the City. These
lots will be developed as the new fire hall site. The City is
currently negotiating a purchase price with the owner and the
owner has indicated that he would like the City to find another
location for his business. The intent is to keep negotiating in
good faith. However, the process for building the new fire hall
could be stalled if this lot is not available at the proper time.
Therefore, the request is to begin the eminent domain process
while negotiations continue.
Council Member Reinert moved to approve the eminent domain
process for Lot 17, Block 2, Carole's Estates, Second Addition.
Council Member Kuether seconded the motion. Motion carried
unanimously.
OLD BUSINESS
FIRST READING, Ordinance No. 01 - 91 Reducing the Membership of
the Park Board - Mayor Bisel noted that this matter has been
discussed previously and was brought before the Council on
February 11, 1991. No action was taken at that time. He asked
that this matter be finalized this evening.
Council Member Bohjanen moved to approve the first reading of
Ordinance No. 01 - 91 reducing the membership of the Park Board
to five members. Council Member Kuether seconded the motion.
Council Member Bohjanen said he felt that no board need be larger
than the membership of the City Council. Mayor Bisel explained
that the rationale for this action was explained to the Park
Board. Council Member Neal said he would like the membership to
remain at seven (7). He noted that may be difficult to get a
quorum at times. Council Member Neal said he would also like the
membership of the DRB to be brought back up to seven (7).
Council Member Reinert said he understood that the DRB has been
operating with four (4) members recently. He was concerned about
tie votes in this situation. Mayor Bisel_ said he felt that this
was a legitimate concern. However, the City does have more staff
support for both of these boards and he could not remember when
either board did not have a quorum. Council Member Kuether noted
that residents were very interested and dedicated to serving on
these boards and did not see that there would be a problem with
getting quorums. Council Member Neal felt that people from all
over the City should have an opportunity to serve on these boards
PAGE 10

COUNCIL MINUTES MARCH 11, 1991
and he felt that if the membership was cut, there would be .less
opportunity to serve and people would lose interest. Mayor Bisel
felt that cable casting the board meetings was a good method of
communications with the public.
On a roll call vote, motion carried with Council Member Neal
voting no.
NEW BUSINESS
Chamber Meeting at Coon Rapids American Legion, March 14, 1991,
7:30 A.M., Governor Carlson Featured Speaker - Mr. Schumacher
explained this was an informational item. He will be attending a
meeting at Centennial School and will not be able to attend.
Council Members Kuether, Reinert and Neal and Accountant Paula
Schloer will attend the Chamber meeting.
Centennial School Tax Issue - Mr. Schumacher explained that he
will be attending a meeting at Centennial Schools on Thursday,
March 14, 1991 regarding the property tax issues. He noted that
the school district has mailed material to all district
residents regarding the property tax rebate method of reducing
their property taxes. The school district has also explained
that the problem is due to the actions of the state legislature
not the school district. Council Member Reinert said he felt it
would be appropriate to have a full discussion on this matter
during a regular Council meeting. A full impact of the property
tax system could be outlined in graph form and this would be
shown to the residents on cable TV. Mr. Schumacher was asked to
contact the Centennial School District and determine if this can
be done at the next Council meeting. Mayor Bisel asked that the
legislators be invited to this meeting to answer questions.
Girl Scout Week Proclamation - Mayor Bisel read the proclamation.
Council Member Kuether moved to approve the proclamation.
Council Member Bohjanen seconded the motion. Motion carried
unanimously.
A copy of the proclamation is attached to these minutes.
North Central Cable Luncheon - Mr. Schumacher explained that a
luncheon will be held at the Seasons Restaurant on Friday, March
15, 1991 at 11:30 A.M. The purpose of the luncheon is to discuss
the cable franchise responsibilities and possible litigation.
Mr. Schumacher will be at this meeting and Mayor Bisel will try
to be there as well.
City Planner - Council Member Neal said that he has read that the
City of Centerville is thinking about hiring a planner. He
suggested that this City consider sharing our planner with
PAGE 11

014
COUNCIL MINUTES
MARCH 11, 1991
Centerville. Council Member Neal noted that because of all the
necessary budget reductions, shared services may be an area to
reduce City costs. Mayor Bisel said that he believed in the idea
of shared services but would not allow this City to get into a
situation where the citizens of Lino Lakes would be asked to
subsidize services in another city.
Council Member Kuether moved to adjourn at 8:32 P.M. Council
Member Bohjanen seconded the motion. Aye.
These minutes were considered, corrected and approved at a
regular Council meeting held on March 25, 1991.
