COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 25, 1995
PLANNING AND ZONING BOARD REPORT, MARY KAY WYLAND
Site Plan Review, Dairy Queen, 7960 Lake Drive - Ms. Wyland explained that Mr.
Ronald Hoffman purchased the property at 7960 Lake Drive, the southeast corner of Lake
Drive and James Street. Mr. Hoffman would like to construct a Dairy Queen. The
property is zoned CB, Central Business and is 31,761 square feet in area or .729 acres.
According to the Zoning Ordinance, a site plan review is required for any commercial
construction.
The building is proposed to be 2,708.44 square feet in area. An "eat -in" area will be
provided including a solarium and outside eating area for warmer months. A drive -
through lane is also provided. The exterior finish is proposed as face brick with four (4)
inch lap siding. A typical Dairy Queen Mansard roof is proposed.
Setbacks - The proposed building is designed to meet the setback requirements of the
Zoning Code. A 40 foot setback off Lake Drive is proposed-with a 15 foot setback for
the parking area off of James Street. The drive - through lane, however, is shown as five
(5) feet from the property line. The Zoning Code requires a 10 foot setback for a
driveway in the Central Business District. Several inconsistencies exist in the Zoning
Code as it relates to setback for driveways and parking areas.
10 foot setback is required in the Limited Business, General Business and Central
Business districts.
5 foot setback is required in the Light Industrial and Shopping Center districts.
5 foot setback on the side. and 10 foot setback on the rear for General Industrial
districts.
10 foot setback, on the rear and 5 foot setback on the side for Public Semi - Public
districts.
Section 4 of Subd. 28, Access Drives and Access, indicates that access drives can
be no closer that 5 feet to any side or rear lot line.
Section 8 of Subd. 4, Design & Setback Requirements for Off - Street Areas,
indicates that curbing can be no closer than 5 feet to any side property line.
The Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval of a 5 foot variance to allow the
drive- through to be located as shown on the plan. Due to the inconsistencies within the
Zoning Ordinance, staff would concur with this recommendation and advise the City
Council that staff will be reviewing these setback requirements in the overall review of
the Zoning Ordinance currently in process.

COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 25, 1995
Building Height - A maximum height of 45 feet is allowed by the Zoning Ordinance.
The proposed building is well within this requirement.
Green Area - The Zoning Ordinance requires a minimum green area of 15 %, the plans
shows that 34.6% is being provided.
Landscaping - A landscaping plan has been provided and will be reviewed by the City
Forester to insure durability of species. The Zoning Ordinance provides for buffering
where a commercial property abuts a residential district. Along the east property line a
large stand of trees including some Norway pine exist that will screen the site from the
adjoining residential area. The south property line is also screened with an existing stand
of trees, mostly scrub trees, that separate the property in question from the His and Her's
Beauty Shop to the south.
The Beauty Shop owners have been contacted regarding the proposed development.
They were pleased with the proposed improvement and the removal of the existing
structure. They indicated a desire to have the existing fence between the two (2)
properties removed as it is unsightly.
Aesthetic Compatibility - The proposed construction will be a welcome addition to the
Central Business District. The existing building is to be removed and the new
construction should enhance the appearance of the area.
Off- Street Parking - The property owner is proposing approximately 28 parking stalls
with one (1) handicapped stall. The City's Parking Ordinance provides the following:
Restaurant 10 spaces /1,000 square feet of dining area
plus one space per employee, per shift
Drive In � 30 spaces /1000 square feet of gross area
Fast Food 30 spaces /1000 square feet of gross area
Since the proposed construction is for a combination of eat -in and drive- through, our
Planning Consultant has recommended the following formula:
10 cars /1000 square feet of net dining area
15 cars /1000 square feet of net ordering area
1 car per employee at busiest shift of the day
Total: 16 cars
Using the recommended formula, the 28+ spaces proposed are adequate to serve the site.
Circulation and Access - The property owner's architect has reviewed these plans with
MnDOT and determined that access will be limited to James Street. An in/out driveway
arrangement is provided. The City Engineer has concurred that this arrangement is
acceptable.

COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 25, 1995
Loading and Trash Handling - Trash handling areas are located on the site plan and
will be required to be properly screened. The Planning and Zoning Board recommended
that deliveries be limited to "after" hours.
Lighting - Off - street parking areas will be required to be illuminated so as to reflect light
away from the adjoining properties.
Signs - The proposed signs for the site appear to meet the requirements of the City's Sign
Ordinance. Proper permits will be required prior to installation.
Utilities - No utilities are available to serve the site at this time, therefore, an on -site
system will be required. A mound system has been designed to serve the property and
will require approval of the County Health Department prior to issuance of any permits.
The developer has also indicated an interest in sanitary sewer and municipal water when
it does become available.
Draining and Drainage - A grading and drainage plan signed by a certified engineer will
be required prior to issuance of any building permits. Storm sewer is available to serve
the site so on -site ponding will not be required.
The Planning and Zoning Board reviewed this request at their September 13, 1995
meeting and recommended approval with the following conditions:
1. A building permit shall be required prior to any construction. A permit fee shall
include 1% of construction costs to, insure completion of site improvements.
2. Sign permits shall be required for all signs.
3. A grading and drainage plan, signed by a certified engineer, shall be provided
prior to issuance of any building permits and approved by the City Engineer.
4. The landscaping plan shall be revised as recommended by the City Forester as to
species type and location.
5. The parking area shall be paved with concrete curb and gutter according to City
standards.
6. Roof top heating and ventilating units shall be properly screened.
7. The City Engineer shall review and approve the on -site septic plans.
8. Parking spaces shall be provided according to the staff recommended calculation.

9. Delivery vehicles shall be limited to "after- hours" delivery as recommended by
the Planning and Zoning Board.
10. A five (5) foot variance shall be granted to allow the drive - through lane to be
located as shown on the plan.
11. The owner sign a waiver to not oppose municipal water and sanitary sewer.
Concern was noted about possible use of James Street for overflow parking. This matter
was not addressed by the Planning and Zoning Board. Mr. Hoffman, owner of the
property noted that there could be some parking on James Street during the summer time
because of ball teams coming for refreshments. He will contact the Lino Lakes banch of
the Hugo Bank located across the street from the proposed Dairy Queen to make this
arrangement.
Mayor Reinert asked that this matter be noted for future reference.
Council Member Elliott moved to approve the site plan with conditions outlined above.
Council Member Neal seconded the motion. Motion carried. unanimously.
Council Member Kuether noted that Item No. 9 should be removed. Council Member
Neal removed his second and Council Member Elliott removed her motion.
Council Member Elliott moved to approve the site plan with conditions outlined above
except that Item No. 9, Delivery vehicles shall be limited to "after- hours" delivery as
recommended by the Planning and Zoning Board be eliminated. Council Member Neal
seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
Move House Into Cityf Carl Buechller, 6974 Lake Drive - Mr. Buechller is requesting
a site plan review to move house from 1 Willow Road in North Oaks onto a site at 6974
Lake Drive (two lots south of the Surfside Seaplane Base). According to Sec. 14, Subd.
23 Relocated Structures, "Before any house or other structure is moved onto a vacant lot,
the Planning and Zoning Board shall report to the City Council whether the structure will
be compatible with other development in the area, and conform to all City codes and
ordinances..."
The property is zoned Single Family Residential (R -1) and indicated as residential on the
Lino Lakes Land Use Map. The proposed house can be located on the lot so as to
conform to the setback requirements of the R -1 District and the Lino Lakes Shoreland
Management Ordinance. The house is 1,660 square feet in area with an attached two (2)
car garage. It will be located on the lot so as to blend with the adjacent homes. In
relation to the adjacent homes, the structure to be moved in appears to be of equal or
greater value. Sewer and water utilities are not currently available to serve the property
and the homeowner has petitioned the City for an extension of utilities. A cost has not
PAGE 5
COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 25, 1995
been determined at this time, however, it may be prohibitive. If the extension of utilities
is not possible, a location for an on -site septic system has been identified on the site plan.
This location will have to be confirmed by a certified septic system designer and
presented to the City Engineer for his review and approval prior to issuance of any
building permits.
The Building Official has inspected the house to be relocated and indicates that it is
approximately 25 years old with a new cedar shake roof. The electrical and mechanical
systems are up to code. The Planning and Zoning Board recommended approval of the
site plan at their September 13, 1995 meeting with the following conditions:
1. Proper building permits be obtained prior to construction.
2. Sewer and water utilities be extended to serve the site or an on -site septic system
be designed by an authorized septic system designer an d approved by the City
Engineer prior to the issuance of any building permits.
3. The new house shall be located on the lot so as to blend with the adjoining
residential homes and conform to all setback requirements.
Ms. Wyland recommended that the City Council approve the site plan contingent upon
the three (3) conditions listed above.
Council Member Kuether moved to approve the site plan as recommended by Ms.
Wyland. Council Member Elliott seconded the motion.
Ms. Rosemary Storberg, 6978 Lake Drive explained that she owns the home directly
south of the property described above. She said that when she and her husband submitted
plans for building their new home to the City they were given an incorrect address. Ms.
Storberg said that she and her husband pointed out the error to the City staff but the error
was not corrected. She noted some of the problems that they have experienced with the
incorrect address and asked if something could be done about the matter at this time. Ms.
Storberg noted that she will incur a great deal of problems and costs to change her house
number at this time.
Mayor Reinert asked Ms. Wyland what could be done about this situation. Ms. Wyland
said that the Storbergs need to change their address to the correct number. Mayor Reinert
noted that this is an opportunity for her to change her address. Ms. Storberg asked that
since this is a City error, what will the City do to help a homeowner? Ms. Storberg said
that it will take a lot of time to make all the notifications and felt that her time is worth
something. Mayor Reinert said that this situation would be about the same as when a
person moves to another house. Ms. Storberg said yes, however, she argued with the City
staff and tried to get a correct house number at the tme the house was under construction.
She felt that since this was a City error, the City should have somebody change the
address on everything for her. Ms. Wyland explained that the City recently notified
PAGE 6
t
i
COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 25, 1995
property owners on White Pine Road that their addresses were being changed from
Baldwin Lake Road to White Pine Road. The City notified the Police Department and
911 emergencies services, the Anoka County Assessors office, the Anoka County
Elections Office and the post office. The post office staff told the City that in cases such
as this, they give the homeowner a reasonable amount of time to change their address on
all other documents. Other personal changes such as checks would be the responsibility
of the homeowner. Ms. Storberg felt that this was unfair since she did not cause the error.
She also said it was expensive. Both Council Member Kuether and Council Member
Neal felt that Ms. Storberg should be reimbursed for actual expenses but not for labor.
Mayor Reinert said that this situation will probably not be resolved tonight and suggested
that Ms. Wyland meet with Ms. Storberg to work out the problem.
Voting on the motion, motion carried unanimously.
Resolution No. 95 -125, Electing to Participate in the Local Incentives Account
Program Under the Metropolitan Livable Communities Act Ms. Wyland read a
memorandum she prepared and sent to Mr. Schumacher which outlined the steps
necessary for the City to participate in this program and the funding sources available
along with Resolution No. 95 - 125 indicating the City's intent to participate in the
program.
Mayor Reinert expressed concern about a sketchy experimental program developed by
the legislature without funding. Mr. Schumacher noted that the State Legislature will
revisit this program during their next session. At this time, the program is experimental,
has general goals, is somewhat of a planning tool and does have some funding available.
Mr. Schumacher said that he did, not see that the City would be hurt by opting to
participate in 1996.
Council Member Kuether moved to adopt Resolution No. 95 - 125, Electing to Participate
in the Local Housing Incentives Account Program Under the Metropolitan Livable
Communities Act for 1996 only. Council Member Elliott seconded the motion. Motion
carried unanimously.
Resolution No. 95 - 125 can be found at the end of these minutes.
Consideration of Resolution No. 95 - 129, Setting a Public Hearing to Establish a
City Housing and Redevelopment Authority - Ms. Wyland explained that the City has
been considering the establishment of a Housing and Redevelopment Authority for some
time. The purpose would be to provide decent and safe housing for citizens of Lino
Lakes. In order to establish the Authority, a public hearing must be held to gather citizen
input. Resolution No. 95 - 129 sets the public hearing to discuss the consideration of
creating a Housing Authority for Monday, October 23, 1995, 6:45 p.m.

Resolution No. 95 - 129 can be found at the end of these minutes.
Consideration of Accepting Easements for Drainage, Utility and Roadway Purposes
on Marshan Lane - Ms. Wyland explained that Mr. Mike Winge has requested a permit
to construct a new home on a parcel of property on the south side of Marshan Lane. It has
been determined that the street and cul -de -sac serving this parcel, the existing Winge
home and the Raymond Rehbein home on Marshan Lane have never been dedicated to
the City. Staff is requesting that Mr. Winge provide a quit claim deed to the City for the
right -of -way. Acceptance of the quit claim deed would be considered a "housekeeping"
action by the City Council.
Council Member Kuether moved to accept the easements as outlined above. Council
Member Elliott seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
CONSIDERATION OF TRANSFER AND INDEMNIFICATION AGREEMENT
WITH THE FRIENDS OF THE PARKS FOUNDATION, MARTY ASLESON
Over the last two (2) years, the Friends of the Parks Foundation has received several
contributions for parks and recreation programs. Since the Foundation carries no personal
liability insurance and are community volunteers, concern was created by the possibilities
of exposure from accidents that may occur as a result of acceptance of the donations.
After investigating how other non - profit groups similar to the Foundation have handled
similar matters, it was decided that the state laws concerning immunity for public non-
profit support groups covered their exposure. In addition, the Foundation wishes to carry
this a step further and modeled a Transfer of Property and Hold Harmless Agreement
similar to the City of Little Canada's non -profit group procedure. The Hold Harmless
Agreement has been reviewed by the City Attorney and found to be satisfactory and
proper. The City Attorney has recommended that the City inspect donations prior to
accepting the transfer of ownership. A copy of the City Attorney's recommendations are
part of this "green sheet ".
Agreements transferring donations to the City from the Friends of the Parks Foundation
were also attached to the "green sheet ". The donations include playground equipment for
Wenzel Farms Park, an irrigation system for Sunrise Park, a six (6) foot long park bench
for LaMotte park, and 12 concrete picnic tables for Country Lakes Park, Birch Park and
Wenzel Farms Park.
Council Member Elliott moved to accept the Transfer and Indemnification Agreement
with the Friends of the Parks Foundation. Council Member Bergeson seconded the
motion. Motion carried unanimously.

COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 25, 1995
CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION NO. 95 -130, SUPPORTING A COUNTY-
WIDE CURFEW ORDINANCE, CHIEF PECCHIA
The Anoka County Board is considering a curfew ordinance that will conform to others in
the metropolitan area. The Board is also asking all Law Enforcement Agencies in Anoka
County to endorse the concept of a uniform juvenile curfew ordinance.
The City of Lino Lakes finds that juvenile violence and crimes committed by juveniles
are of great concern. In addition, juveniles are susceptible by their lack of maturity and
experience to participate in unlawful activities and to be victims of older perpetrators of
crime. Therefore, the Lino Lakes Police Department is requesting that the Lino Lakes
City Council adopt a Resolution No. 95 - 130, In Support of Establishing a County
Curfew Ordinance in Conformance with other Metropolitan Counties.
Council Member Elliott moved to adopt Resolution No 95 - 130. Council Member Neal
seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
Resolution No. 95 - 130 can be found at the end of these minutes.
CONSIDERATION OF A PERMANENT REPLACEMENT FOR POLICE
SECRETARY, CHIEF PECCHIA
Chief Pecchia explained that the full -time clerical position has been held open since
March, 1995 for the anticipated return of the employee. This clerical person has
exhausted all accrued vacation and sick time. The Family Medical Leave benefit has been
exhausted and the clerical person has been placed on an unpaid Leave of Absence. The
employee is not able to return to work at this time and future prognosis is uncertain.
Chief Pecchia requested that the present clerical person's employment be terminated to
enable the Police Department to fill the position with a full -time permanent employee.
The City Council considered all other options that would not terminate employment of
the present clerical person but allow the City to fill the position. Chief Pecchia noted that
the position requires specific training and the training sessions will be held in November.
If the City is considering hiring another clerical person, Chief Pecchia should be
authorized to advertise the position as soon as possible.
Chief Pecchia and Mr. Schumacher were asked to research all possible opportunities to be
fair to the current employee and update the City Council at the next Council work
session.

Consideration of Individual Sewage Treatment System Code Revision, Resolution
No. 95 - 128 - Section 403.04 of the Lino Lakes city Code pertains to the inspection of
individual sewage treatment systems. Currently, the code allows property owners to
inspect the system and report their findings to the City. The Metropolitan Council has
indicated that this is unacceptable Instead, the inspection is to be completed by a certified
inspector. In response to:thM'etropolitan Council's concerns, the following outline has
been prepared to replace they: existing Code calling for bi- annual inspections:
1. The City will mail an inspection report form by March 1st of every year to one-
third of the properties containing on -site sewage disposal systems. A property will
receive an inspection form once every three (3) years.
2. The City will be divided into thirds for the purposes of triennial reporting by
property owners.
3. Each property owner receiving an inspection report form is to have their septic
tank pumped; the tank and system inspected; and return the report form to the
City by September 1st of that same year.
4. The inspection of the tank and system is to be made by a certified inspector. A
listing of certified inspectors is available from the MPCA and will also be
available from the City.

COUNCIL MEETING SEPTEMBER 25, 1995
5. Failure by the property owner to complete the form and return it to the City will
be cause for the City to have the system pumped and inspected. The City will
contract to have the work done with all costs to be assessed to the property.
Before proceeding with the Code revisions, staff will contact the Metropolitan Council to
review the proposed changes to ensure their concerns have been addressed. Staff
requested that the City Council adopt Resolution No. 95 - 128 which will indicate to the
Metropolitan Council that staff has the support of the Council to complete the changes
proposed.
Council Member Bergeson moved to adopt Resolution No. 95 - 128 and requested that
the final policy include language stating that if the system has been pumped within the
past year, the system would not have to be pumped and inspected until three (3) years has
lapsed from the last pumping. Council Member Elliott seconded the motion. Motion
carried unanimously.
Resolution No. 95 - 128 can be found at the end of these minutes.

CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION NO 95 -124, SETTING A PUBLIC
HEARING ON PROPOSED DELINQUENT SEWER AND WATER
QUARTERLY UTILITY BILLS, MARILYN ANDERSON
Each year the Lino Lakes Utility Department experiences difficulty in collecting some
overdue sewer and water.bills. The unpaid bills left behind when a homeowner moves
from the residence are turned over to a collection agency. This procedure has been
successful in collecting most outstanding bills. However, overdue bills can be collected
by assessing the unpaid bill plus an administration fee to the property taxes of the
property for which a bill is owed. Resolution No. 95 - 124, will authorize the City Clerk
to proceed with the assessment process and order a public hearing on the matter.
Council Member Kuether moved to adopt Resolution No. 95 - 124. Council Member
Elliott seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
Resolution No. 95 - 124 can be found at the end of these minutes.
