Explanation/Summary(attach supplement sheets as necessary) Summary: On January 08, 1996, Ordinance No. 570 Regulating New and Used Automobile Dealerships was approved by the City Council. When this Ordinance was adopted, the language allowing motor vehicles and recreation equipment sales and garages accessory thereto was not removed from the B-3 permitted uses section of the Zoning Code. In addition, the language used for Ordinance No. 570 was not consistent with the rest of the Zoning Code. For example, "New and Used Automobile Dealerships" is not consistent with the definition section of the zoning code, whereas"motor vehicles and recre_ation,equipment sales and.garages accessory thereto"is. - . III Thus, this amendment involves two administrative changes. One change is to adhere to the original intent of Onrdinance No. 570, for vehicle sales to be allowed as a conditional use in an R-3 zoning district. Thus, the guage from the permitted uses section of the code will be extracted. The second change is to remove the language"New and Used Automobile Sales" and use"motor vehicle and recreation equipment sales and garages accessory thereto,"which is consistent with the definition section of the municipal code. The Planning Commission reviewed this ordinance amendment on May 01, 1996, and recommended approval in Resolution No. 447-96. Resolution No. 447-96 and Ordinance No. 581 is attached under Council Business for Consideration of Introduction of Ordinance No. 581, for your review and consideration.

Explanation/Summary(attach supplement sheets as necessary) Summary: The current Liquor License Requirements under Section 502.04, Subdivision 2(c) of Mounds View Municipal Code entitled Intoxicating Liquor, Eligibility for License, states that"No license shall be granted for any premises within five hundred feet(500') of the property line of any school or church located in Mounds View." Currently this restricts all of the businesses in Mounds View Square from being eligible for a liquor license due to its proximity to the Sunrise Christian Daycare/Church located at 2520 County Road I. The owners of the center are working to lease the Bridgeman's site for a restaurant use. They have signed letters of intent all contingent upon being able to apply for a liquor license. 0 t the May 13, 1996 meeting an amendment was made to Section 502.04 of the Liquor Code which would eate an area along Highway 10 that would only require a 50' distance. Also included was a provision to . require the licensee to have at least 60% of gross sales be food sales and prove this true on an annual basis to enable them to renew the license. A proposed amendment to the ordinance change includes keeping the 500' requirement but allowing liquor within those areas if they meet the 60% gross sales requirement. The amended ordinance is up for Council consideration for formal adoption on May 28, 1996. f s lir �/�Economic Deve of-ament Coordinator COMMENDATION: REQUEST FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION Agenda Section 11 A STAFF REPORT Report Number:96-1727C Report Date: 5/23/96 COUNCIL MEETING DATE — ILII:A., ��� May 28, 1996 -- Special Order of Bus.

Explanation/Summary(attach supplement sheets as necessary) Summary: MEMORANDUM to: Chuck Whiting, Clerk\Administrator from: Cathy Bennett, Economic Development Coordinator Ordinance No. 582 was presented to the Council for Introduction at the May 13, 1996 meeting. I would like to propose a slight change to the ordinance that restricts those locations that are under 500' from a church or school to enable a liquor license but that they must abide by the requirement that the licensed premise must receive at lease 60% of its annual gross sales revenue from the sale of food and prove this true on an annual 110 basis to enable them to renew the license. This would change the code for the entire City verses only for the locations abutting Highway 10 between Long Lake Road and Silver Lake Road as proposed on May 13th. e suggested change would read as follows: No license shall be granted for any premises within five hundred feet(500') of the property line of any school or church in Mounds View except that the 500'restriction shall not apply and a license may be granted for licensed premises that receives at least sixty percent(60%1 of it's annual gross sales revenue from the sale of food. The licensee must provide evidence to the City on an annual basis as part of the license renewal process that the licensee has complied with the minimum sixty percent(60%) food sales requirement of this section. Failure to comply with the minimum sixty percent(60%1 food sales requirement of this section shall be cause for suspension, revocation or denial of renewal of this license. I met with the chair of the administrative council for Sunrise Methodist Church and explained the proposed changes and process for public hearing. They are concerned about having a bar in the location and did not like the language that was proposed on the May 13th meeting because it singled out Sunrise Methodist Church. He felt better about the language change as proposed above. I suspect that there will be a few representatives from the Church at the public hearing. This ordinance change is up for formal adoption by the Council. RECOMMENDATION:.

Besides you and I, panel members included Lynette Morgan, Jerry Skelly Sr., Dale Irving. The panel members were in agreement that Patrick Toth was the most qualified and best candidate for the position. The only concern was that perhaps he is over-qualified for the position suggesting that he may not remain in the position long. After discussion regarding this issue it was decided that the make-up of the part time position is one that has a high turnover rate because most prefer full time work and benefits versus part time work and pro-rated benefits. Needless to say, when full time employment and benefits employment opportunities arise, it is an enticement that is most often accepted. .

The proposed assessed portion of the reconstruction was for one half of the City of Mounds View's share of the storm water construction and no more than $8.00 per frontage foot for curb and gutter. • The final project expenses were $4.85 per frontage foot and $13,881 in storm water construction. The Surface 10 410ater Fund will pay for one half of the construction, with the remaining $6,954.50 being assessed to the operty owners. Accompanying this report is an assessment roll developed for the project for Council's review. The property owners have received notification of the proposed assessment and the public hearing. Staff requests a public hearing be scheduled for the June 24, 1996 Council meeting. If Council has any questions or concerns regarding this matter, please feel free to contact me. ,�ii� 4-r e't f %i/ter Michael Ulrich, Director of Public Works RECOMMENDATION: Set Public Hearing for June 24, 1996 at 7:05 pm. to consider the Assessment of the Public Improvement of Pleasantview Drive. • I oiolo ololoro oiO 0 0 ofo 131 -41-41v -41-414I lviv v -41-41-4 CAICo CJI() WIW OIWIW W Co WIW >1 010 O O 010 01010 OIC O O MI N011,4 N N N N N NINJ NI NJ N N co Iv'Co Co Co NJN N NI MINININJINJ NI Co NICo N mi C)ICW CO CO CO CO co WIN NJI NJIN N r- olOIO O O O O 010 OI OIOIO O O0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 OI O 000000 — CA 04 WI WIW -+ A cn C) V co op 00 -+ NIW -1 O 4e 111 T0Cn -Ico <- D -0 � c- 520 C1010II m 0 < D z,m mID10 zl02I0XII m1Ol0 )r- > t11 IN m - cn' IIc W mOz:w -I-II- NmOmDlOjmlm1O0 =I- III DOmz0Zc� �ImlcnxiI i P.1-1-> > 0M > c0,0 *(nc1mizlc) KIO�Z0 cn QIs� �� czm � o Q° mal� lRozDy mai` I z m • OIDm0IKZ ms� mlR,I<Im zIZ co DI Olm >ImiwiCn I> -I DI �I� z!

Initial comments from the controlling agencies is that the wetland is functioning very well and it is possible that any redesigning would not guarantee any available mitigation bank. Since this issue was one of the prospects for the property it would appear that the purchase thereof is not as urgent or worthwhile. The issue of the appraisal without consideration of the two permanent easements has not prompted much if Sany negotiations with the owner. Accompanying this report,is a summary of the details of the earlier meeting` `` from Rocky Keene of SEH. Staff would request that this item be scheduled for further discussion at the June iiouncil Work session.

Administrator's Review/Recommendation:z.( ` -No Comments to supplement this report -Comments attached. Explanation/Summary(attach supplement sheets as necessary) Summary: On January 08, 1996, Ordinance No. 570 Regulating New and Used Automobile Dealerships was approved by the City Council. When this Ordinance was adopted, the language allowing motor vehicles and recreation equipment sales and garages accessory thereto was not removed from the B-3 permitted uses section of the Zoning Code. , In addition, the language used for Ordinance No. 570 was not consistent with the rest of the Zoning Code. For example, "New and Used Automobile Dealerships" is not consistent with the definition section of the zoning code, whereas"motor vehicles and recreation equipment sales and garages accessory thereto" is. • Thus, this amendment involves two administrative changes. One change is to adhere to the original intent of ik, dinance No. 570, for vehicle sales to be allowed as a conditional use in an R-3 zoning district. Thus, the guage from the permitted uses section of the code will be extracted. The second change is to remove the language"New and Used Automobile Sales" and use "motor vehicle and recreation equipment sales and garages accessory thereto," which is consistent with the definition section of the municipal code. The Planning Commission reviewed this ordinance amendment on May 01, 1996, and recommended approval in Resolution No. 447-96. Resolution No. 447-96 and Ordinance No. 581 is attached for your review and consideration. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me. _// Joyce Pruitt', Acting Community Development Director • 11) RECOMMENDATION: Motion to waive the actual reading and approve Formal Introduction of Ordinance No. 581, An Ordinance Relating to Motor Vehicle Sales and 1110 Amending Title 1100, Section 1114.04 of the Mounds View Zoning Code.

ATTEST: Chairperson (SEAL) Acting Community Development Director •i THIS IS FOR THE WEEK OF MAY 28 - 31 , 1996 ADMINISTRATION • Work continues on the Bel Rae project of course. We are looking to present some options to the Council on Monday evening. This past week we came to the conclusion that it did not appear feasible to continue operating the Bel Rae after the City acquires ownership. This is somewhat disappointing in that we have assumed it would be easier than it appears. A lot of time is being put into this project now and hopefully after the work session on Monday, some options will clear themselves up. • In other business, we are in the midst of interviewing community development director applicants. I will know better next time not to schedule six hours of interviews on packet day. I think we will find a good candidate for the job. Next week, it's the finance director applicants' turns. • I am also getting caught up on how to budget in Mounds View. Thanks to the department heads for getting their long term financial plans to me to study. Prior to Monday's meeting I will be meeting with Mary Tatarek on some things that will help me frame the budget concerns. Council members will note I have not done anything for the packet for Monday, but will open discussion at the meeting on this subject. With all the other items to discuss, serious budget crunching can come at a better time. • We meet again with LELS on Friday to see where we will be going on their agreement. Also, I've attended numerous regional meetings on labor relations, the I-35W corridor, two meetings concerning TIF, and the AMM annual meeting with the Mayor. • Blaine is waiting for their staff to review the rezoning next to the golf course, so a decision there will come next week. And finally, the Oak Grove Trust settlement is on my desk and appears to be ready to put to rest. That's it for now. Chuck • ♦ Chuck, Julie T., Mary and I met with representatives from Ramsey County Department of Health regarding possible services offered in Mounds View. They are willing to look at ways to at least have rotational services provided in Mounds View. I put another call into Ramsey Action Program which is the non-profit group that operates Head Start. Still waiting for their reply. • • The City was awarded $750 from the New Brighton-Mounds View Chamber of Commerce for the Business Directory in exchange for a full page advertisement. We have met with the printer and hope to have the project on the press by the end of the week. Thank you to Lynnette for all of her help in putting together the guts of the book. • We have received a proposal from Everest for the development of Building N. Chuck and I will be reviewing the request and hope to be able to bring a solid TIF plan for your review as soon as possible. • I am working with a Fridley company who is interested in relocating their facility to Mounds View. I have mailed a general package of sites available. Cathy PARKS, RECREATION AND FORESTRY PARKS: • The parks crew has resumed a regimented schedule of grass cutting and athletic field grooming. Parks trees have been in full bloom this week,providing fragrance and beauty to the parks and neighborhoods. Parks crew will be spraying in the early morning when wind conditions are favorable. RECREATION: • In-house youth athletic leagues have begun. Neighborhood fields will be meccas for neighborhood activity. • Sharie represented the department at Edgewood Open House this Wednesday evening in the information resource fair, advertising Middle School summer programs and activities offered through the Mounds View Parks and Recreation Department. • The Lion's funded bus for recreational activities had its annual check by the Dept. Of Transportation- and was given a commendable rating for service and use. • The Bicycle Safety program is being held this Saturday at City Hall. Cathy Bednar,North Suburban Schwinn staff, Parks and Recreation Commissioners and staff will be working this program. Over 400 bicycle helmets are being distributed to Mounds View children FREE. The funding for bicycle helmets was provided through a grant from Minnesota Recreation&Parks Association. FORESTRY: • The Forestry crew prepared and planted the patio area behind City Hall addition with bushes. GOLF COURSE: • John is working with Watertronics and Tri Metro regarding a mal-functioning pump. The pump is yet on warrantee, but determining the exact reason that it is not working properly is the immediate goal. John is frustrated because water at need is important especially when fertilizing. John is keeping on top of the situation, and the companies are working to determine the problem and remedy it as soon as possible. FINANCE • Dorothy is still answering utility questions this week. She is also making great progress with solving the problems and reassuring the customers. • Kitty has been spending the week receipting money for the City. Not a bad job, but this week it is a big job. She is helping with the utility payments and handling the golf course deposits. • Both the 1995 financial report from the auditors and the renewal policy with the insurance company were completed this week. The City is on strong grounds from both the financial and insurability aspects. • Dorothy, Kitty, and I are happy that Marge will still be at City Hall after this week. She has been a wonderful asset to the Finance Department. We thank the Council for allowing our department to hire Marge. • The Finance Department wishes Audrey,the very best in her future endeavors. We are sure that"Dinger"will not be retiring no matter what she chooses to do with her time and energy. We will miss you, Audrey.

Her friendly smile and upbeat attitude will be greatly missed! • Jennifer Bergman attended an Affordable Housing Development Session on June 29, 1996. Joyce May 23, 1996 To: Honorable Mayor and City Council From: Chuck Whiting, Clerk Administrator Re: May 28, 1996 City Council Meeting As I get settled into my position here with the City, I would like to run a few considerations past the City Council regarding routine work processes. Council members will note that this Council packet will contain my recommendations on business actions brought to the Council by department heads. My purpose is twofold. First, this places staff in a position of accountability in terms of taking a stance on an issue not only to me (you will note their recommendations will be directed to me), but also allow staff collectively to discuss and debate issues amongst themselves prior to going to Council. I anticipate this will strengthen recommendations to Council and provide more thorough reasoning for proposals. I am very comfortable with the staff's abilities to do this and I expect this approach will develop over the next few months as we work on this. Second, this also places my position where it should be, between Council and staff relations. The Council has expressed its concern in the past about its relationships with staff and perhaps this will ease some of those concerns. Therefore what you see in my memo here is my comments to the Council regarding the enclosed staff reports and additional considerations and recommended actions for the Council. The next thing I would like to work towards with the Council is to move from what appears to me to be personality based decision making to issue based decision making. Staff certainly must proceed on the latter and I would ask the Council to recognize this as the year develops. This does not mean that I don't expect disagreements or posturing,those are to be expected. I feel that staff at least must proceed this in this manner and I would like the Council to know this will be my approach with issues. This also leads to questions about how best to get information out to the community and demonstrate to the community that reasoned actions are being taken by the City. Currently the Council does show its regular meetings on cable and these meetings so far have for the most part shown the dialogue and thought processes of the Council and staff on some issues. Being shown to be working on an issue and reasoning it out even with disagreements I think puts the Council in a good light. While it has been the practice not to cable cast work sessions, I think the Council may be missing a good opportunity to depict its work style and simply be seen working on issues. Also, it will help communicate the complexity of some issues to the community and would likely solicit public input. I realize each Council member receives their various input from members of the community, but it would certainly be helpful to me and I think staff to have a better feel of the wants and concerns of the community. Without it, it is very easy to begin working as if in a vacuum away from community concerns. I simply give this to the Council as something to consider. I would also like to pass along a couple of other matters for your consideration. In reviewing the upcoming budget development, I would like to know the Council's concerns about the so called "big picture", specifically where does the Council want the City to be going in a fiscal sense. My approach to the budget will be along these lines since I doubt I will be able to fully comprehend the detail side of the budget and all its long standing history. In particular, I would like to know which source of revenue the Council typically isolates(it's almost always the tax levy or local government aid) as the key controller in setting the budget. It is not unusual for cities to set zero levy increases or x% increases in spending, but the true balance comes between the level of service provided and your key revenue source. Given that we are short in the finance department and my still relative newness to the position, I don't know if I will be able to present the kind of information I would like to in the short time period available. This will likely mean I will want to discuss this with you more as the process goes on. As far as the following agenda is concerned, all consent agenda items appear routine and should have Council approval. Under public hearings, Joyce Pruitt's memo regarding the need to amend language in the motor vehicle sales code is self explanatory and later in the meeting under Item 11L, I recommend acting on the ordinance. The public hearing regarding Ordinance 582, which will essentially allow a liquor license to be given to the Outback Steakhouse at the old Bridgemans site, has been worded to take into consideration some Council members concerns about past language which appeared to be too exceptional for this situation. Cathy's recommended language will apply to all future liquor licensed establishment and I agree will also address the concerns expressed by Council. The matter certainly is open for discussion, but I would recommend the language as presented in Cathy's report when the time comes for Council action under Item 11A. I do anticipate the nearby church may object regardless. As for Item 11B, we now have that language correct as presented and recommend approval, and I also recommend approval of the golf car lease to Club Car as presented in Mary Saarion's memo to me. The lease purchase arrangement will fit with the golf course's cash management work avoiding a large cash outlay this year. John Hammerschmidt may attend the Council meeting if there are questions on the carts or the bid. Item 11D is the proposal to hire Peter Toth as the city's cable TV technician/producer. I sat in on the interviews and was very pleased with Mr. Toth. He brings a great deal of experience from St. Paul and has a personal business schedule that will complement his work for the City. I look forward to having him on board and request the Council's action to hire him as presented. No Council action is needed on Item 11E, but we did want to note the successful cleanup of this property. Joyce did an excellent job following through on this one. Audrey Almendinger has submitted her resignation effective May 31. I am sure everyone will miss her here. I am requesting authorization to hire a temporary replacement while the search for Audrey's replacement takes place as outlined in Lynette Morgan's memo for Item 11F. At the last Council work session, the Council discussed Item 11G to support the nomination of City Attorney Bob Long to a position on the League of Minnesota Cities board. A resolution to that affect is enclosed. Mike Ulrich will be present for Items 1111 through K and I need not add too many comments here. I concur with his recommendations. It is Item 11K that should have some discussion. In short summary, it is unclear as to the value of obtaining this property at its current offering price. The City is certainly not pressed at this time to rush into a purchase and the comments from the engineers regarding the site and our meeting with the watershed district and the Army Corp of Engineers representative should shed light on additional costs the City may face. I would recommend the Council hear out the presentation on Tuesday and not appear too excited to acquire the property. It may be that a little hesitation and filibustering over the merits of the site may lead to bargaining the asking price down in the coming weeks or months. That is all regarding the Council portion of the meeting. I would appreciate hearing from you at some point on my earlier comments and how this cover memo helps or hinders. Have a good weekend and see you on Tuesday evening. ,m„\v c3,0)1 Ny) bo.) •\\J7, 'OL. ? Ck utt � � j / t ' kti (71' "` ` ,ter — 27/L V <J -/ h t / )- j 112- t_-U62
