Regular Meeting Page 4
Council Member Mueller asked when the fire marshal inspection will take place. Mr. Tulgren
indicated that the inspection would take place once the sprinkler system is installed.
Gary Stroden, with Fire Suppression, indicated that they inspected and submitted the paperwork
to the City and the state will come out when the paperwork is ready. He then said that they hope
to have the inspection completed, and be ready to open in May.
The insurance agent indicated that he has insured these owners in other locations and there have
been no issues as they are good neighbors.
The Fire Marshal indicated that there were violations when the previous business closed, so
those will be addressed before the Certificate of Occupancy is issued.
Mayor Marty said that these owners seem to come prepared.
Kevin Halverson outlined the violations and explained that they will be resolved.
Mayor Marty asked if the hood in this kitchen area meets code requirements. The Fire Marshal
indicated that she believes that it does, but said it will be verified.
Mr. Halverson said that the bar that was in the cigar shop will be removed because there was no
permit, and the Health Department wanted it removed.
Council Member Mueller asked why the name is being left the same. The owners indicated that
there is name recognition with it that they hope will help with marketing.
MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Stigney. To Waive the Reading and Approve Resolution 7258, a
Resolution Authorizing an On-Sale Intoxicating Liquor License and Restaurant License located

meters. Clerk-Administrator Ericson indicated that two additional changes are being
recommended and those are highlighted in yellow on Council copies. He then explained that
right of entry has been amended to allow the resident to hire a private plumber for the inspection
and his concern is that this could provide residents with the opportunity to circumvent the
inspection process in other areas.
Clerk-Administrator Ericson indicated that, after discussion with the City Attorney, Sections 2
and 6 have been recommended to be deleted to eliminate any potential issue with circumventing
the inspection process, and the remaining revisions will allow a legal foundation to enter
properties, or provide property owners with another mechanism to provide for inspection of the
sump pump connection.
Hearing no public comments, Mayor Marty closed the public hearing at 7:41 p.m.
Council Member Stigney said that taking out the right to request a licensed contractor would
concern him. Clerk-Administrator Ericson noted that the right to do so is listed in another
section.
Council Member Flaherty noted that the latest round of inspections was well received, as the
inspectors were in Mounds View vehicles and appeared very professional.
• MOTION/SECOND: Mueller/Flaherty. To Waive the Reading and Adopt Ordinance 803, an
Ordinance Amending Title 900, Chapter 906 and Chapter 907 of the Mounds View City Code by
Adding Language Pertaining to Private Inspections and Other Revisions.
Mayor Marty said that he has been getting calls from citizens who have had the old water meter
with estimated charges, and they have taken issue with estimates, so it will resolve this issue to
get this taken care of as soon as possible.
ROLL CALL: Stigney/Hull/Flaherty/Mueller/Many.
Ayes - 5 Nays - 0 Motion carried.
D. Resolution 7256, Consideration of Denial of a Rezoning and Final Plat for the
Knollwood Place Townhome Development on County Highway 10 E.
Planner Heller explained that in 2006 this request was started, and the proposal was to rezone
three properties, do a major subdivision, and a development review fora 19 unit townhome
development. Integra Homes owns the properties and presented the proposals. The first reading
was approved in 2006 and Council was waiting for final plat before moving forward with a
second reading. The development review and major subdivision came before Council in
December of 2006. May of 2007 was the six month timeframe and some information was
received but not enough to consider the application complete.
