•:egular Meeting

June 22, 1992
Orduno explained that the City's requirements were different this year than
before for the garbage haulers/recyclers. The City had requested a list of
all customers from the haulers per the new state mandate. There were five
companies that did not provide a list of customers with their licensing
paperwork. They are: Waste Management of Blaine, Gallagher's, Aagard, BFI
Action Disposal and Twin City Sanitation. Orduno's recommendation for the
approval of the licenses is Taco Bell and Burger King be added to the
restaurants and that the garbage hauler's licenses be approved contingent
upon the submission of a list of their customers to the City within 10
working days.
MOTION/SECOND: Wuori/Blanchard to approve Item No. 5 and
approve the haulers license contingent upon submission of
a list of customers within 10 working days
VOTE: 5 ayes 0 nay Motion Carried
COUNCIL BUSINESS:
1. Ric Minetor, Director of Public Works/City Engineer reviewed
Ordinance No. 511 Regarding City Wide Parking Restrictions.
This ordinance had its first reading May 26, 1992. The City's
• new attorney, Jim Thomson, made some minor revisions.
Mayor Linke stated that there is a provision in this ordinance whereby
residents can call the Police Chief and get an exemption for a
specific evening to park on the roads and the cars won't be tagged.
Mayor Linke wanted to add trailer, etc. to Ordinance No. 511 in
the first sentence. Restricted Hours. would read, "No person
shall stop, stand, or park a motor vehicle or trailer, etc. on any
street or highway in the City between the hours of 2:00 a.m. and 6:00
a.m., except as otherwise authorized by this code or unless directed to
do so by a police officer or traffic control device."
Jim Thomson, City Attorney, stated this would be okay because the
Mounds View Municipal Code does address the definition of a trailer.
Peg Mountin, 7321 Parkview Drive, stated that three of her neighbors
park their vehicles in the driveway and had them vandalized, so the
crimes are not limited to streets. This ordinance could increase
impervious surfaces in the City. Mountin also stated this ordinance
could increase police enforcement due to cars parking on non-improved
surfaces. This ordinance also could cause problems with encroachment
on side yard setbacks which are needed to keep exhaust, noise and
lights from becoming a nuisance to their neighbors. The homeowners
would see an increased cost because they would have to add impervious
• surfaces for cars they now have and when the extra cars
leave the property as the family thins out, the not needed surface
is still there.

~egular Meeting

June 22, 1992
Ms. Mountin stated that the City could:
1. Have on-street parking by permit only. The fees charged for the
permit fees could cover the administrative fees for issuance of
these permits.
2. Impose fines for snowbirds. A friendly reminder of $25 would
help persons remember not to park on the streets.
Mayor Linke stated that permit parking will not solve the snowbird
problem. The City currently charges $25 for snowbirds. The City
issues a lot of tickets each year. The City is trying to provide a
four hour window for the plows to get through the streets without
the snowbirds there.
Councilmember Rickaby commented that the City has a snowbird ordinance
now that restricts parking when it snows. Rickaby stated that her
belief is that another restriction won't make people comply.
Mayor Linke stated that with this ordinance, at 2:00 a.m., the
residents will know that a car can't be parked in the street and,
therefore, when it snows the cars won't be a problem.
Mike Janssen, Clearview Avenue,

Mayor Linke explained that Mr. Janssen's mother was at the last
meeting and everything was explained clearly to her. It was explained
to her that the Council was talking about City Wide Parking
Restrictions. Mayor Linke stated that permit parking causes many
problems. Mayor Linke further stated that in speaking with Ms. Janssen
that parking wasn't a permanent problem, that it causes problems when
out of town relatives visit.
Mayor Linke asked Jim Thomson, City Attorney to discuss this
further.
Mike Janssen stated that always there are three cars in the driveway
and one in the street. Janssen stated that he has parked on the yard
before and been ticketed, therefore, more permanent surface would have
to be put down and Janssen feels that there are many people that can't
afford it. Janssen stated that as far as children being an issue, he
has never seen children out at 6:00 a.m. Mike Janssen stated also that
commercial vehicles are not allowed to be on the streets previous to
6:00 a.m. and he stated that a snowplow is like a commercial vehicle
in that it makes as much noise as one.
Mounds View City Council
~egular Meeting
Page Seven
June 22, 1992
Mayor Linke stated that a snowplow is not considered a commercial
vehicle.
Jim Thomson, City Attorney, stated that permit parking raises many
legal issues regarding parking. This policy for the City is fine.
City Attorney Thomson advised the City to go slow, adopt this policy,
and look at others down the road.
Councilmember Rickaby asked that when persons call the police and
gets permission to park overnight, isn't that in itself a permit
process?
Jim Thomson, City Attorney, suggested that a phrase be added to the
ordinance that would let the Police Chief exercise some discretion
his own to consider specific circumstances.
Councilmember Rickaby stated that in Ordinance No. 511 there is
misleading language where it states, "...unless directed to do so by
a police officer or traffic control device."
Jim Thomson, City Attorney advised that the words "or authorized" be
added after directed in the above stated sentence of the ordinance.
• Mike Janssen, Clearview, asked how the City could afford to enforce
city wide parking restrictions when they lost one officer to the DARE
program and were possibly going to lay off an officer. In the past, it
was stated that the police department did not have enough manpower to
police two streets, how can it afford to police every street. Even
with the permission of the police department, each location with
special permission would have to be checked.
Mayor Linke stated that with the city wide parking restrictions
no car should be parked on the street between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00
a.m., therefore, making it easier for the police department to
observe cars that are parked on the street and shouldn't be.
Mike Janssen stated that he sees no purpose for the city wide
parking restrictions and if it is a problem in the winter declare
a snow emergency and tow.
MOTION/SECOND: Quick/Wuori to approve second reading of
Ordinance No. 511 Regarding City Wide Parking Restrictions
as amended.

wells. Ulrich pointed out to
a substantial savings to the
participating in NSP's Peak
Councilmember Rickaby asked what the City would do if there
were a major fire during the time that the City was not
operating these wells at the time.
Minetor stated that the City would receive a penalty for
using the wells at a peak time. The penalty would probably
equal the savings that the City would receive for the year.
Minetor stated that the first approach the City would take
would probably be to contact people using outdoor water and have it
turned off.
Ulrich further indicated that within five years using this
program the City could have the emergency generator paid off.
MOTION/SECOND: Rickaby/Blanchard to approve Peak Control

employed by the City without Council approval. This is merely a

4240 Designating Those Recyclable Materials that must be
Collected by Waste Haulers. Asleson stated that the materials
contained in the resolution are those recommended by the
Environmental Quality Task Force for inclusion. The Environmental
Quality Task Force at their June 16th meeting amended their
previous recommendation to include only office type white paper
rather than all office paper and to delete telephone directories
from the list.
MOTION/SECOND: Adopt Resolution No. 4240 Designating Those
Recyclable Materials that Must Be Collected By Waste Haulers
VOTE: 5 ayes 0 nays Motion Carried
Tom Moline, hauler from BFI, shared some of his concerns with
the Council regarding the collection of mixed office paper in
that mixed mail becomes a problem. This might cause the markets
to become flooded and the paper would be thrown in the trash
anyway because there would be no way to get rid of it. Mr. Moline
stated that schools are a special problem because of the wide range
of mixed paper.
Councilmember Rickaby stated that there are a lot of residents in
Mounds View with school age children and that the City will have
to take the time to really educate the public on recycling.
Ric Minetor, Public Works Director, stated that by adopting the
resolution regarding recyclable materials and an item becomes a
problem, Council could change the process much easier by adopting

a resolution than it could by having to have another public
hearing, a first and second reading of an ordinance and then
wait 30 days for the effective date of the ordinance.
Dean Warden, hauler from Ace Solid Waste, stated his concerns
with regards to recycling of magazines. The place that he
was taking the magazines will discontinue collection on
July 1st. Mr. Warden stated that he picks up recyclables
and takes them to his shop, dumps the load there and takes
what is recyclable to RMR. Mr. Warden stated that he pays
$80 per ton to get rid of plastic and $66 per ton to get
rid of garbage.
Carla Asleson stated that most Ramsey County residents are
taking their materials to Supercycle.
Councilmember Rickaby thanked the haulers for bringing their
concerns to the Council.
6. Michele Severson,-Deputy Clerk, reviewed Resolution No. 4243
Approving a Charitable Gambling License for a One Day Off Site

Severson stated that the Lion's Club had made application to
the City to hold a raffle in conjunction with a banquet at the
Mermaid Supper Club on October 1, 1992. All paperwork was
properly filed with the City. The Gambling Board requires that
the organization obtain a resolution from the local jurisdiction
permitting the Lion's Club to hold this one day off site event.
