PUBLIC SERVICES DEPARTMENT REPORT, RICK DEGARDNER Consideration of Adopting Final Master Plan, Clearwater Creek Park — Staff advised in September 1999, the City obtained 5.5 acres of parkland in the Clearwater Creek Third Addition for a neighborhood park. A meeting was held on November 6, 2000, to allow area residents an opportunity to provide input on what amenities they would like to be considered for Clearwater Creek Park. A follow-up meeting was held on December 6, 2000, to look at and comment on some better defined scaled master plans. The Park Board reviewed and discussed the final draft master plan at their January 4, 2001, meeting. Staff continued stating Mr. Jeff Schoenbauer from Brauer and Associates, is here this evening to present the final master plan for Clearwater Creek Park as well as discuss cost estimates for development of the park. Assuming the final master plan is adopted tonightthis will be the City's guide as Clearwater Creek is developed.

ADMINISTRATION DEPARTMENT REPORT, DAN TESCH Temporary Adjustment for Receptionist Position, Linda Waite Smith — Staff advised during preparation of the 2001 operating budget, a request for an administrative assistant for the Administration Department could not be accommodated. As a substitute, the City Council provided funds that could be used to pay for additional administrative duties to be assumed by the Receptionist, Lisa Hogstad. Per the AFSCME labor contract, employees who are required to perform higher level duties on a temporary bases are paid 10% additional compensation. The alternative to a temporary adjustment in duties and compensation is to change the job description for the Receptionist. This is not recommended. Ms. Hogstad's background as a legal secretary • COUNCIL MINUTES JANUARY 8, 2001 qualifies her to assist with administrative duties related to personnel. That type of background cannot be expected of future incumbents and should not be required for a receptionist position. If an administrative assistant is included in the 2002 budget, the receptionist duties will revert to the current job description and the regular salary schedule. Council Member Dahl moved to approve temporary 10% salary increase for Lisa Hogstad while she assumes additional administrative duties for the Administration Department. Council Member Reinert seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Non-union Salary Adjustments, Linda Waite Smith — Staff advised there is a group of management/supervisory employees who are not represented by unions. As with unionized employees, the City's compensation philosophy is to strive for salaries that are at the average paid by cities of comparable size in the metro area as reported in the DCA Stanton annual salary survey. Market adjustments are made to the salary range for each position (not the employee holding the position) then a cost of living adjustment is made to the salary range. The actual amount of salary increase for an employee depends on where that employee is in the salary range for his or her position. By last year the City had fallen behind significantly on salaries considerable market adjustments were needed to bring those positions were only adjusted to 95% of the average. Thi to 100%, the same as AFSCME and Local 49 posi AFSCME. Because e average, non-union endation brings those salaries The recommended cost of living adjustme0, the same as union agreements settled to date. A market adjustment is not re + for e City Administrator position, which has a salary range maximum that is 101x*. ton average. For the remaining positions, the recommended market adjustments ar' = - foing: Public superintendent Public Se ices Director Public Safety Director Finance Director Recreation Supervisor 2 Community Development Director Police Office Manager City Clerk 7% Director of Administration 1% 4% 6% 4% 4% 6% 1% 5% Staff noted that although the Community Development Director position is currently vacant, it is the salary range for the position that is being adjusted in anticipation of filling the position in the near future. 3 COUNCIL MINUTES JANUARY 8, 2001 The cost of market adjustments was not included in the 2001 operating budget and will have to be absorbed by the departments. Cost of living adjustments were included in the budget. Mayor Bergeson clarified that the percentages are not performance based. Staff advised the percentages relate only to the average salary for each position. Council Member Reinert moved to approve the recommended 2001 salary adjustments for non-union employees, as presented. Council Member Carlson seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Resolution No. 01— 03, Consideration of Annual Appointments, Linda Waite Smith — Staff advised each year the City Council is required to make a number of appointments. Appointments of individuals to advisory boards took place at the last meeting of 2000. Staff referred to a list of appointments that still need to be made. Mayor Bergeson suggested Council approve the appointments of staff recommendations. The Council prerogative appointments should be deleted from the list and i�i� �� at a Council work . session.

Consider Recommendation to Appoint John Powell of TKDA as City Engineer for the Year 2001, Linda Waite Smith — Staff advised John Powell of TKDA has served as a consulting engineer for Lino Lakes for several years. Based on his performance, the City Administrator recommended to the City Council in August that the contract for engineering services between the City and TKDA be extended for the year 2001. Although Mr. Powell is an employee of TKDA and is bound by th ion d obligations of the contract between the City and TKDA, he serves as the City'so a t ��eer. His responsibilities include managing the City's Municipal State d em, submitting reports and permit applications to governmental agencies and servi 1 c ct for the City on all engineering issues.

A Special Levy will pay for this certificate in 2002, 2003, and 2004 and the levy proceeds will be credited to the Area and Unit Fund. Staff reviewed a list of the equipment to be funded with the 2001 Certificate of Indebtedness. Council Member Dahl moved to adopt Resolution No. 01— 04, as presented. Council Member O'Donnell seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Resolution No. 01— 04 can be found in the City Clerk's office. COUNCIL MINUTES JANUARY 8, 2001 PUBLIC SAFETY DEPARTMENT REPORT, DAVE PECCHIA There was no Public Safety Department report. COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT REPORT Resolution No. 01— 02, Variance Request by Chris Lyden, 6275 Holly Drive, Jeff Smyser (3/5 Vote Required) — Staff presented the application by explaining Chris Lyden owns 4.07 acres of property, zoned rural, at 6275 Holly Drive. Since the ordinance requires a minimum of ten acres in the rural zoning district, this property is a pre-existing non -conforming lot of record. Mr. Lyden would like to construct a 34 -foot by 64 -foot pole barn on the property using metal siding and roofing material. The Zoning Ordinance specifically prohibits metal siding and roofing material on properties less that five (5) acres in size. The proposed construction will meet the square footage requirement and setback requirements. Staff reviewed the findings of fact that need to be met for variance consideration and indicated staff does not believe this variance criteria can be met in this case since Mr. an construct a wood frame building, on footings without a slab, that would have a simi a t to ;•ost frame building, although it would be more costly. Staff advised it has received ua sts for such construction and always discouraged the variance procedure c i st cases, the requests were based on the additional construction costs. Staff presented its analysis of the request, notin app ,ant has described his hardship as follows: • 1. Pole barn type constru • b e for this property due to questionable soils. 2. Pole barn type • t+n, wi out a cement floor, is necessary to preserve 1958 mid - engine all wr due to moisture factors. 3. Pole b. •` truction will reduce threat of loss from grass fires. Staff noted the adjoinin_ +roperty owners have indicated no objections to the variance request. Mayor Bergeson inquired about the recommendation from the Planning and Zoning Board. Staff advised the Planning and Zoning Board reviewed this item at their December 2000 meeting. Mr. Rafferty made a motion to approve the variance and was supported by Ms. Lane. Motion failed with 3 ayes, 3 nays, and 1 abstain. Council Member Carlson referred to the Findings of Fact. She inquired about how the City should handle the Findings of Fact that are not met on the resolution itself. The City Attorney advised the Findings of Fact that are not met should be noted on the resolution. COUNCIL MINUTES JANUARY 8, 2001 Mayor Bergeson asked if the size and the location of the structure meet all the City requirements. Staff advised the size of the structure does meet the City requirements. A site plan has not been reviewed in relation to the setbacks. Mayor Bergeson asked if the exterior materials comply with the ordinance. Staff advised the variance is being requested due to the exterior materials. Metal siding and pole barns are prohibited on less than five (5) acres by the City ordinance. Council Member O'Donnell inquired about the additional cost for a wood building. Staff advised cost consideration is not allowed when reviewing an ordinance. Council Member Reinert asked if the weight of the proposed building is better suited on this soil than a wood structure. The City Engineer advised no information has been presented regarding soil bearings related to a wood vs. metal structure. Mr. Chris Lyden, former Council Member, 6275 Holly Drive, came forward and stated he has spent five (5) years restoring his boat. He referred to a picture of the boat he does not want anyone to vote yes because of who is requesting the variance. He e t �_ d like the Council to approve the variance because it is the right thing to do. Mr. Lyden continued stating that he understands some eq are significant and some are insignificant. This is not a significant variance rel v' si ight, setbacks, County ditches, and the number of buildings. He stated the merit of t e is ased on hydraulic soils. Staff does not have soil bearing information. It is th 3 ice Creek Watershed District responsibility to determine soils. He advised the Ri rs ed District has approved his application. The only appropriate type of building t• • ese oils is a pole barn type building. He stated he can get a guarantee for the buildi ` alt rs Company. He referred to a copy of a letter from the Walters Company that indiing is right for the type of soil. Mr. Lyden reviewed th t upgrades he is proposing to comply with concerns from Council Members. He stated th it ng costs over $22,000 and is a high quality building. The building will be placed on a unique p • . tion on the property and will be very well buffered. Only 1/6 of the building will be viewed. The main door of the building is the garage door even though the building is metal. He noted the neighbors support his proposal. He stated he would not ask the Council to do anything that would hurt the City. He stated he does not see a down side to approval. He stated it is possible he can match the structure to the vinyl siding he plans to install on his home. Council Member O'Donnell stated he appreciates all the information received on this issue. He stated variances are difficult because of the issue of consistency. He expressed concern regarding approval and opening up the City for other variance requests. Other residents may want to do the same on their lots. He inquired about the size of lots that the ordinance applies to. Staff advised that each category of lot sizes have a maximum total size of accessory buildings. The proposed building is under the maximum size allowed. COUNCIL MINUTES JANUARY 8, 2001 Mr. Lyden stated the ordinance prohibits metal buildings on 21/ - 5 acres of land. However, the ordinance would allow him to have two (2) metal buildings larger than the proposed building. He indicated he is willing to waive his right to a second building so he can have one quality building. Council Member Reinert stated he is leaning towards allowing the variance because this is a specific situation. He stated the proposed building is high quality and aesthetically pleasing. He stated he believes there is a hardship in this case and the neighbors are not opposed. The acreage of the property is very close to the lot minimum for this type of building. He indicated he would not support the variance except for the numerous amount of exceptions in this case. All the variables need to be included so the City does not open the door for more requests. He added the variance request is an extreme case and he would not support it because Mr. Lyden was formerly on the City Council. Mayor Bergeson stated metal siding is permissible on smaller sheds. He inquired about the staff comments indicating metal siding is not allowed on this building. Staff advised there is a copy of the ordinance in each packet that refers to what is allowed. Smaller size buildings are allowed to have metal siding. Council Member Carlson stated this is not an easy decision because endation from the Planning and Zoning Board. She stated one member would ha n of the variance if the siding were changed. She referred to number 4 in the Findin o ct r i g she is leaning towards denial because she does not want to set a precedence. S a s ` s voted no on other requests for this reason. She stated she cannot support a p b g on less than five (5) acres of land. Mayor Bergeson stated he has looked at t ates to two (2) issues: poles and general structure of the building, and exterior �� t _ would not be allowed on conventional constructions. He stated the Plan ng oard minutes indicated there is no scientific evidence that supports poor s • t ' : the is plenty of circumstantial evidence. He stated he would be supportive of a p•�;�� u �• minimize the effect on the soil. He stated he can not find a reason to justify exter' at ?m' s that are not allowed in conventional construction. Council Member Dahl d at everyone needs to remember that Council Members are residents and have problems. Tha s why the City has variances. Each variance is unique and are utilized to help residents. The City Council is here to help residents. The building is smaller than what is allowed and it meets all setbacks. There are soil problems and wetland issues. The main issue is vertical siding vs. horizontal sidings. She stated she does have garage doors on her pole barn and it is still good looking after eight (8) years. Mr. Lyden is doing improvements to make the building look better. There are not too many places that he can build on his lot due to location of well and septic. Putting windows in the garage door is a good compromise. Mr. Lyden is meeting the City more than half way. She inquired about the number of parcels under five (5) acres within the City that would want to construct a pole barn. Staff advised they have no way of determining the number of lots less than five (5) acres that would want to construct a pole barn. COUNCIL MINUTES JANUARY 8, 2001 Council Member Dahl stated she does not believe there are that many. She stated that approval of the variance is not setting a precedence. The property has huge evergreens that will screen the building. She stated she has been told that it is practical to construct this type of building due to footings in the soil. Slab and concrete would crack or deteriorate and result in a junky building. The City of Lino Lakes wants aesthetically pleasing buildings. Mr. Lyden has gone above and beyond to accommodate the City. There are other pole barns in the area and it is zoned rural. She indicates she is in favor of the variance. Mr. Lyden stated that if the variance is granted, the merit of the variance is due to the soils. He read the letter from the Rice Creek Watershed District regarding the soil information. He stated the basis of the variance is the poor soil. He indicated he is willing to put siding on the 1/6 of the building that can be seen. Mayor Bergeson advised an audience member, Mr. Rafferty, that he will not allow his comments because he is a member of the Planning and Zoning Board. He stated it is not appropriate for the Council to negotiate the design of the building at a public meeting. He stated the variance request can be tabled for further review. He asked for clarification regarding deni equest. Staff advised the application cannot be submitted for one year i is n ess the new application addresses the reason why it was originally denie Council Member Carlson stated a member of the P ning Board addressed the Council at a previous meeting as a resident. The City Attorney advised members o i can address the Council as a resident. Council Member Dahl reques tak ` of the Council Members before the request is tabled. Mayor Bergeson advi po be taken relating to how each Council Member will vote as the request is presented. Council Member O'Don 11 stated he is leaning toward denial of the request. He stated he has questions regarding other alternatives to the siding material, the cost of a wood frame building over metal, and what is best for the neighbors. He stated it is probably preferable to the neighbors that the boat be stored in a building. However, at this point he would deny the request. Council Member Carlson stated she would also deny the request. She stated she needs something specifically saying that a wood building cannot be build on this particular soil. The main issue is setting a precedence within the City. She added that she strongly believes all residents should have an opportunity to speak to any issue, even if they are members of City Boards. Mayor Bergeson stated that he would deny the request as it has been presented. He would, however, be in favor of a pole structure vs. a slab structure. He stated he can't find a reason to fit the variance and criteria for outside materials. 9 COUNCIL MINUTES JANUARY 8, 2001 Council Member Dahl indicated she would support the request. She stated she has a pole barn. Other types of structures would stick out in this neighborhood. There are also other pole barns in the area. She stated she did not get information in her packet regarding the Rice Creek Watershed District's opinion on the soil. Mr. Lyden is accommodating the City and the City should meet him half way. She indicated she does want an answer about how many other parcels there are in the City relating to a precedence being set. Council Member Reinert stated he had hoped an agreement on the siding could be met. He indicated he would allow the variance if that happens. He stated he also agrees that a structure to store the boat is better for the neighbors. Mayor Bergeson stated that if he had written the ordinance, everyone would have a pole barn. He advised Mr. Lyden he can withdraw the application temporarily or move ahead. Mr. Lyden indicated he is agreeable to tabling the request if the Council is receptive to discussions to explore further middle ground. Mayor Bergeson advised Mr. Lyden to have discussions with staff ,g; g a eptable building materials. Council Member Dahl inquired about the resolution for has suggested the City use resolution for all Coun regular basis. Council Member Dahl asked if Mr. L resolution is not used. Staff advis application whether the resol • taff advised the City Attorney he resolutions will be used on a it an application before a year is up if the est is denied, Mr. Lyden cannot submit another The City Attorney adv. s an nial cannot be resubmitted for one year. The City Administrator es staff does not have information regarding the number of five (5) or less acre parcels within the She stated a consultant would be necessary and asked for Council direction. Council Member Dahl inquired about a map that has that information. Staff advised they are not aware of a map with that information. Council Member Dahl stated she will get the map from Anoka County. The City Attorney advised the City must take action within 60 days of the application date. He stated that if the request is tabled and the 60 day action period is affected, Mr. Lyden must agree to an extension. • Council Member Carlson advised she does support resolution for Council decisions. She stated her concern is that all five (5) points were included. She asked if having more information is better than • 10 COUNCIL MINUTES JANUARY 8, 2001 not enough. The City Attorney stated it is tough for staff to contemplate what the Council wants included in a resolution. The resolution is just a draft for the City to have a legal framework to take action. Staff added that the information in the resolution is taken from the City ordinance. Staff advised they will confer with the City Attorney regarding the procedure to be used in the future. Mayor Bergeson stated it is appropriate to make a motion to table with a date reference. Staff advised the City will be running into the 60 day deadline if the request is tabled. Staff advised they will send a formal letter to Mr. Lyden regarding the extension. Mr. Lyden indicated he is agreeable to an extension. Council Member Reinert moved to table Resolution No. 01— 02, Variance Request by Chris Lyden, 6275 Holly Drive, until Mr. Lyden can work with City staff about possible siding on the pole barn. When the information is received, the request will be put back on the agenda.

SECOND READING, Ordinance No. 17 — 00, Vacation of Lois Lane Right -of -Way at 7870 Country Lane, John Powell (4/5 Vote Required) — Staff advised Mr. Barry Przybylski of 7870 County Lane has requested vacation of the street right-of-way located at the northeast corner of his property. The right-of-way to be vacated is that portion which was to accommodate construction of a cul-de-sac. This right-of-way was secured as a part of the Mar Don Acres plat in 1978 and is no longer necessary due to the recently developed Highland Meadows West plat. Lois Lane now continues to the east of Mr. Przybylski's property and the cul-de-sac will not be needed. Staff has published the vacation in the legal newspaper and the City Council has held the public hearing and approved the first reading of the Ordinance on December 11, 2000.
