A. Heritage Preservation Commission
M/S/P Hunt/Conlin - to remove from the table the Heritage Preservation item. (Motion
passed 5-0).
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES FEBRUARY 21, 1995 2
Sue Johnson, Heritage Preservation Commission Chair, explained they will be applying
for a grant to survey Lake Elmo to help define the cities' historic places. Johnson
added "Old Lake Elmo is a town worth saving". Commission member, Gloria
Knoblauch, stated the commission should save individual buildings instead of building a
fence around the old downtown. They could also look into the century farms and other
buildings.
Councilman Hunt explained the old village has some unique characteristics, and we
need to come up with a way to modify the ordinance. He would be willing to wait a year
to see if the HPC could work closer with the Planning Commission to create an overlay
district for the Old Village area that would take into account the current old village
district and come up with suggestions for code changes for a more effective use of the
Old Village. Johnston suggested that the new city planner be a liaison between the
HPC and the Planning Commission. Mayor John voiced his concern that he did not
want to create another layer of bureaucracy if a business wanted to move into the old
village.
M/S/F DeLapp/Hunt - to repeal Section 212 of the Lake Elmo Municipal Code,
establishing the Heritage Preservation Commission. Further, that consideration be
made to re institute a Heritage Preservation Committee as a sub -committee of the
Planning Commission operating under the auspices of the city council, rather than an
ad hoc committee of the Planning Commission. (Motion Failed 1-4:Conlin, Hunt, John,
Johnston).
M/S/P Hunt/Johnston - to appoint Susan Johnson, Gloria Knoblauch and Lenore Mottaz
to the Heritage Preservation Commission and advertise the vacancies in the next city
newsletter and appoint members for specific terms so the terms are staggered and all
seats do not become vacant at the same time. (Motion passed 5-0).
Liaison from the council to the HPC will be on the March 7th council agenda.
B. Derrick Land Co.: Revised Proposal for Lot 2, DeMontreville Highlands 3rd
Addition
M/S/P Hunt/Conlin - to remove Derrick Land from the table. (Motion passed 5-0).
M/S/P Hunt/ DeLapp - to deny the request of Derrick Land to amend the grading plan
change to increase the height to 981 because even though the grading plan is
amended as proposed (Refer to Paragraph #6 of legal stipulation) the septic system
could not be constructed according to a design approved by the city's consulting
engineer and the city engineer has indicated he cannot approve the function of the
system and that's supported by the last two years evidence that what's In place now is
not dispersing natural water to a point where you can achieve the separation required
at the critical time of the year. (Motion passed 5-0).
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES FEBRUARY 21, 1995 3
C. Human Rights Commission
Attorney Filla reviewed the proposed Multi -Community Human Rights Commission
Ordinance. In his report, dated February 17, 1995, Filla believed that this particular
function would best be structured as a Joint Powers Agreement between all of those
communities that wish to participate. The council received a draft of a proposed Joint
Powers Agreement.
M/S/P John/Conlin - to table for two weeks and instruct staff to send copies to Oak Park
Heights and Lakeland Shores as well as a cover letter stating the city would send this
Joint Powers Agreement along with no recommendation, but to note the agreement is
still being reviewed and make other communities aware of this proposal and ask them
to respond by April 1,1995. (Motion passed 5-0).
6. PLANNING/LAND USE & ZONING:
A. Hammes Sand & Gravel:Text Amendment to allow recycling
The city's position is the Hammes property is currently a nonconforming use because
that occurred in 1986 when the city has repealed its mining regulations. When they did
that, the Hammes property became non -conforming and continues in that posture
legally today. The Hammes' can continue to mine the entire site even though it is now
non -conforming. Recycling is not part of the definition of mining, has never been part of
this definition, and has never been authorized by the city. The property owner has
been asked to discontinue the recycling operation in the past. What is before the city is
whether or not as a city do they wish to add recycling to the category of uses that are
allowed in the Ag zone.
Richard McNamara, adjacent property owner, stated we have lived next to the Hammes
family many years where they started off with a sand pit --no problem with that, gone
from light industrial to heavy industrial, now they have gone into recycling of hazardous
waste. They have expanded quite a bit. Vehicles out on our farm need windshield
wipers to clean windshields in the morning. He voiced concerns on the hazardous
waste of all the contaminants, noise, use of the area, time, weekends, problems with
CUP, and extended mining operations which bring up the health safety issue.
M/S/P Conlin/Hunt - to table for two weeks for the staff to prepare a formal resolution
denying the Hammes application expressing the reasons we have for not wanting to
have the recycling use part of the city's regulations: 1. Include comments in Jeff
Smyser's staff report of January 18, 1995, 2. Concerns stated by Richard McNamara,
adjacent property owner, 3. the city is currently engaged in an 1-94 corridor study and
the impact on the Hammes property to be reviewed in connection with that study and at
this time not willing to expand any conditional agricultural uses. (Motion passed 5-0).
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES FEBRUARY 21, 1995 ZF
B. Request for text amendment regarding length of cul-de-sacs
Robert Helwig submitted a letter requesting that the city amend Section 401.380 of the
city code which regulates the length of the permanent cul-de-sacs to eliminating any
and all references to the length of cul-de-sacs. He pointed out existing cul-de-sacs in
our city that are from .3 to .6 of a mile which definitely over 800 feet. This would affect
two developments which are currently underway.
The council felt this has been an issue of concern and treated this as a city request
rather than a property owners' request. The council asked the Planning Commission to
initiate a study as to whether or not 800 feet is good or bad.
M/S/P Conlin/DeLapp - to ask the Planning Commission to study Section 401.380 of
the city code governing the regulations on length of cul-de-sacs, including a definition of
temporary cul-de-sacs, and place this as a priority item on their next meeting. (Motion
passed 5-0).
7. CITY ENGINEER'S REPORT:
A. Resolution No. 95-13 through 95-22 receiving feasibility reports and calling
public hearing for 1995 overlays
1. Jane Road:Upgrade for bike/pedestrian trail improvements: The parks
commission recommended that a bicycle/pedestrian trail not be incorporated into the
bituminous overlay of Jane Road at this time. The commission also recommended the
council Incorporate into the 1995 overlay projects a stripe which delineates a 4' wide
trail be painted at the time of overlay on both sides of all those roads that are
designated future bike/pedestrian trails on the Comp Plan. The commission recognized
the striping would be paid for by the city from the parks budget and the roads
recognized are 42nd St., Jamaca Avenue, Jamaca Blvd. (north of Lake Jane), 55th
and 53rd Street. Bohrer will look into the ramifications of posting signs designating
areas as bikeway; such as, would parking be prohibited on all of those streets.
2. Discussion with Lake Elmo Hardwood Lumber: They have had discussions with
Joe Rogers, who would be the property owner totally assessed for those
improvements, and he does not favor such an improvement. This proposed project will
be deleted.
3. Discussion with the owners of the Brookfield Addition regarding the shared
driveway between the city hall and Brookfield I. They are very much in favor of
looking into the possibility that this common driveway would be adopted as a city street
and then improved. This project will remain in the report.
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES FEBRUARY 21, 1995 5
M/S/P Johnston/John - to approve Resolutions 95-13 through 95-22 receiving feasibility
( reports and call a public hearing for March 9, 1995 to review the 1995 overlay projects
with inclusion of striping cost on the designated roads as recommended by the Parks
Commission as an informational item at the March 7, 1995 council meeting. (Motion
passed 5-0).
Councilman Hunt is a property owner on the list for street improvements and asked if
he should abstain from voting. Filla responded that a conflict of interest deals primarily
with contracts and having a financial interest. Filla will contact the League of Minnesota
Cities for more information.
B. Further discussion on Lake Elmo/Oakdale Joint Sewer Project
Larry Bohrer explained in his report dated February 17, 1995 that an agreement
between Lake Elmo and Oakdale to settle the Section 32/33 issues has been executed.
One of the provisions of the agreement is a joint sanitary sewer construction. project,
provided such project is feasible and cost effective. In all of the joint meetings I have
attended, Oakdale is willing to cooperate in a joint project provided two conditions are
met:
1. The joint project will not cost Oakdale any more in first cost than a "stand alone"
system.
2. The joint project will not cause delay in Oakdale's current projects. The first project
is under construction now with a second project scheduled for this summer. The lift
station is scheduled for 1996.
In an effort to determine the best course of action regarding a joint construction project,
we have prepared up-to-date cost estimates based on the latest information available.
The purpose of this letter is to determine Oakdale's base cost for a stand-alone system
and then compare that cost to various joint projects to determine Lake Elmo's cost.
M/S/P Hunt/Conlin - to direct the city engineer to work with the city administrator to
update the 1992 440 MUSA application and arrange appropriate hearings as required
to prepare for submission of the application to the Metropolitan Council as expeditiously
as possible and to pass along our favor of Option 2-Lake Elmo Independent System to
the City of Oakdale. (Motion passed 5-0).
8. CITY ATTORNEY'S REPORT:
Attorney Filla reported that a week ago Friday Federal Land argued that Judge
Doyscher's order allowed them to submit any proposal for review under the 1979 plan
and the 1994 proposal was substantially the same as the 1980-87 proposal. The city
argued that under Doyscher's order it did not allow them to submit any proposal that
allowed them to resubmit the 1980/87 proposal and the 1994 proposal was
LAKE ELMO CITY COUNCIL MINUTES FEBRUARY 21, 1995
substantially different than the 1980-87 proposal. Judge Doyscher gave them until
Friday, February 24, 1995 to submit any additional information.
9. CITY COUNCIL REPORTS:
Mayor John reported that on February 9 he attended the Washington County Planning
Commission meeting which was reviewing their Comprehensive Plan. Long term
planning issues were discussed for West Lakeland.
On February 13 he presented the Rural City Center concept to the Lake Elmo Business
Association together with a request that they provide tangible evidence of their support
for the visit of the Minnesota Design Team.
On February 16 he attended a workshop organized by the Office for Social Justice, part
of Archdiocese of St. Paul and Minneapolis to discuss the growing concern for the
increasing poverty of the City Centers, and its spread to the inner ring of suburbs. The
workshop was part of a public awareness program,. to make sure that everyone in the
developing outlying suburbs were aware of the growing problems at the city's cores.
Council member DeLapp provided a copy of an article entitled "BofA joins battle on
suburban sprawl" out of the February 20, 1995 San Francisco Examiner.
Council member Hunt suggested it may be a good idea for all commissions and
committees in the city to organize mission statements every few years. This would help
( with communication between the various commission and the city council. Possible
sunset clauses for certain committees or commission should also be investigated. He
also brought up his concern on the future of the Lake Elmo Library and wanted to talk
about this at a future council meeting in regard to a proposed move to Oakdale and
comments from County Commissioner Hauser.
10. CITY ADMINISTRATOR'S REPORT:
A. Design Team Visit Preparation: Meeting with General Public

owners in the City. The same type of presentation will be given to the general public so
that the city can general further support.

rent its hall on Saturday, March 4, 1995, from 8:00 a.m. to 12 noon at a cost of $75 to

BY FACSIMILE
I have reviewed the proposed Multi -community Human Rights
commission Ordinance. I believe that this particular function
would best be structured as a Joint Powers Agreement between all of
those communities that wish to participate. I am enclosing the
draft of a proposed Joint Powers Agreement and offer the following
comments
1. The name of the Joint Human Rights commission would have
to be selected in some manner.
2. The initial number of Commission members would have to be
determined and the Agreement amended accordingly. I have
presumed that there would be two members from each city
on the initial Commission and that the terms of office
would be staggered no that one-third of the terms expire
each year.
3. The City should determine what, if any, budget will be
required for the City's participation in the Joint Powers
Agreement,
Please review and contact me with your comments.
Very truly yours,
Jerme �. Filla

BofA joins battle'
on suburban sprawl
Engine that once
drove Califom14 .
economy may be
running in reverse
By Gary Delsohn
MCCLATCHY NEWS SERVICE
SACRAMENTO — Suburban
sprawl is like the weather. Practi-
cally everyone complains about it
but no one ever does anything.
That's not completely true, of
course. There are alternatives to
endless miles of look -alike subur-
ban subdivisions, but they seem
somehow alien, as if challenging
the predominant American devel-
opment pattern is, well, un-Ameri-
can.
Now, however, a singularly
American institution, the powerful
Bank of America, the biggest in the
state of California and one of the
most pervasive underwriters of our
suburban development patterns,
has added its resonant voice to the
chorus.
In addition to all the other more
obvious reasons sprawl is harmful,
it now is seen, after decades of
being the state's economic engine,
as an economic drain on a Califor-
nia struggling to rebound from a
deep recession.
Simply put, we can't continue
doing things the way we have the
past 50 years; it's costing us jobs,
quality of life and new economic
growth.
That simple reversal alone is
significant news, but it's far more
important because of who said it.
"Beyond Sprawl: New Patterns
of Growth to Fit the New Califor-
nia," is one of those documents
that could and should alter the'"all-
important debate over how, Cali-
fornia develops.
Much of the die has already
been cast. California is ;now the
nation's most urbanized state, and
much of that urbanization has
been suburban sprawl that is t'oul
ing our air, congesting our roads,
costing us untold tens of millions of
dollars in wasteful infrastructure
and helping to destroy whatever,
fragile sense of physical communi-
ty we have left. It also means we
have very little to invest in our
inner cities or in people who need
help the most.
With the state continuing to add
some 500,000 new people a year,
the equivalent of another Oakland
or Fresno every 365 days, there
remain many profound land -use
decisions to be made. Business as
usual will simply destroy Califor-
nia, says the report.
It doesn't matter much if Bank
of America had to be dragged into.

BofA joins battle
on suburban sprawl
the report by its environmental di-
vision. Or if the language in the
paper is not all that dramatic or
bold. What matters is the word has
come down from the mountain top.
Moses has spoken. Environmen-
talists, growth management advo-
cates and affordable -housing pro-
ponents now have a powerful new
ally they didn't have just a few
months ago.
The report unfortunately steers
clear of advocating such controver-
sial remediea as urban limit lines,
those definite development bound-
aries that seem to work so well in
less avaricious states, such as Ore-
gon, where quality of life is more
than just a slogan.
It advocates such apple pie sug-
gestions as making housing afford-
able to as wide a range of the public
as possible, encouraging more effi-
cient use of existing resources,
streamlining the permit process to
encourage development in urban
and older suburban areas.
But just the fact that BofA has
joined forces with other advocates
of controlled and managed growth
is a big step for those in the
trenches who've been shouting this
message alone for years.
The bank is not the only new
voice, however. The report's co-
sponsors are the California Re-
sources Agency, the Greenbelt Alli-
ance environmental group in San
Francisco and the Low Income
Housing Fund. A more disparate
group would be hard to find
And while it may be surprising
to some to see a department of
Gov. Wilson's come out against
sprawl, remember that Wilson un-
derstands well, from his days as
mayor of San Diego, the impor-
tance of a strong center city and
the insidious effects of Los Ange-
les -type development patterns.
Wilson's campaign promise
Wilson has disappointed growth
management advocates by failing
to follow through on the pledge in
his first campaign to be Califor-
nia's growth management gover-
nor. Budget woes and Capitol poli-
tics forced him to forgo a strong
program.i
But the governor's own office o1
policy research said a few yeara;agq..;
that California could no longer 'df-'
ford to develop as if the supply of
land, clean air, energy and money'
for roads, schools and other ser-
vices would go on forever..
"What may have been possible
with 10 or even 20 million people is
simply not sustainable for a popu-
lation of twice that much in the
same space," the research office'
said.
This new report is an important
follow-up to that earlier efforC
cause adding the state and Bank'of'
America to the environmentalist-
housing coalition gives it a poten- .
tial clout it could only dream of in..
the past.
"We can no longer afford the
luxury of sprawl," the BofA-co-:a
sponsored report said. "Our demo-
graphics are shifting in dramatic
ways. Our economy is restructur
ing. Our environment is under'in '
creasing stress. We cannot shape
California's future successfully up-,,,'
less we move beyond sprawl."
What next, then?
The report was presented to the'
Little Hoover Commission, which
studies government waste and'
could make recommendations for
legislation. But any really mean-
ingful growth management mea-s� .
sures will continue to be an ex j
tremely tough sell in the Capitol Sri;
until they are seen as a hot eHn ,
with the public.
Giving up is out of the question'
and the broader, more potent de-
bate the report augurs can only
help.
,,The fact that such a diverse.
group has reached consensus on
the ideas in this report reflects how
important the issue of growth is to
all Californians," Richard Morri-
son, BofA's senior vice president
for environmental policies and pro-
grams, said of "Beyond Sprawl."
"We hope it will make a mean
ingful contribution to the public
dialogue about the quality and di-
rection of California'a growth in:
the 21st century."
It already has.
