Staff was r"e- 25 quested to work with the Association and to keep the Council informed 26 related to those negotiations . 27 REPORTS 28 COUNCIL 29 Enrooth Reports Attendance at Very Informative Water Conference, 30 November 19th and 20th 31 The Councilmember indicated he perceived the other Councilmembers 32 would have the same interest in the proposals for funding storm sewers 33 and 509 projects as he had and said he would therefore be sending 34 around the materials related to those subjects which he had brought 35 back with him from the meeting in the Earle Brown Continuing Education 36 Center on the St. Paul Campus. 37 Ranallo Proposes Sharing Insurance Trust Refund with Employees 2 • 1 Councilmember Ranal' o indicated he had learned at the- League of 2 Minnesota Cities Boa{'d meeting the previous Tuesday that the League ' s 3 Insurance Trust in which St. Anthony is •a participant, had been able 4 to save 1 . 2 million dollars last year, a good portion of which could 5 be attributed to the loss prevention programs adopted by most of the 6 municipal participants . The City had been issued for ' 'a check for 7 $5 ,700 and Mr. Childs indicated he expected future checks would 8 probably exceed the $15 , 000 Councilmember Ranallo had• estimated. 9 Perceiving these funds would never have been possible without the 10 strong safety measures undertaken by City employees to keep the 11 claims down, Councilmember Ranallo said he would like to see them 12 share in some of the money which had already been sent and he 13 suggested that if the City Attorney' s research showed it would be 14 legally permissible , $750 be spent towards food purchases for the 15 employees ' Christmas party, December 13th. 16 Carol Johnson, the City' s Finance Director, was present to provide 17 input towards other matters on the agenda and she indicated she agreed 18 with Mr. Childs that this indication of the Council ' s appreciation for 19 employees ' efforts would be well received. 20 The suggestion was greeted with enthusiasm by the other Councilmembers 21 who perceived that since the City is unable to give bonuses and safety 22 award programs had not yet been established, this would be one way of �23 letting the employees know their efforts were really appreciated. 24 Council Action 25 Motion by Ranallo, seconded by Marks as a token of the Council ' s 26 appreciation of employees ' efforts to keep insurance claims down, to 27 direct $750 of the League Insurance Trust refund be spent to under- 28 write part of the costs of the employees Christmas Party, December 29 13th. 30 Motion carried unanimously. 31 Marks Continuing Planning and Zoning Institute Service 32 He had the opportunity of conducting the government training seminar 33 in New Ulm last week and the Councilmember reiterated the schedule of 34 institutes which would include training sessions at the Earle Brown 35 Continuing Education Center on the St. Paul campus in which he would 36 be involved during December and January. 37 DEPARTMENTS AND COMMITTEES 38 *The October Financial Report was ordered filed without comment. 39 *During the consideration of Prosecutor Hance ' s November 10th 40 report on matters his firm had handled for ' the City at Hennepin �1 County District Court, November 4th, Councilmember Marks drew 3 i I.. attention to the ,number. of bench warrants issued for non-appear- • 2 ance, saying they averaged three per day in this report. He 3 also found the number of complaints filed by the St. Anthony 4 police,:;_to..._b.e "incredible - The....-Hance & LeVahn, Ltd. re.p_.ort-was 5 then ordered filed for future - reference. 6 Council Perceives Too Many Problems Involved in Allowing Pull Tabs in. 7 City r 8 Because the City' Attorney' s services were only required in conjunction 9 with the continuance of discussions about amending the City' s charita- 10 ble gambling ordinance and the Lions Club proponents were present, the 11 Mayor , with the Concurrence of the other Councilmembers , moved the 12 matter up on .the agenda. 13 The existing ordinance had originally been adopted in response to 14 proposals that a professional fund raiser operate a Bingo Hall to 15 include the sale of pull tabs on behalf of a consortium of charitable 16 organizations, including the March of Dimes and Sister Giovanni ' s 17 activities in St. Paul. 18 Since that time , the Council had . received written requests to amend 19 the ordinance to allow the sale of pull tabs in municipal liquor 20 stores from the St. Anthony Lions Club and the Hennepin County Humane 21 Society. The St. Anthony Boosters Club had verbally requested the • 22 same from Mayor Sundland. In the meantime, members of the Lions Club 23 had vigorously lobbied each Councilmember at home -_-:"and the 24 organization' s President, Ken Girard, as well as Lions members Oscar 25 Norgren and Wes Henry, were in attendance for further input to the 26 discussions . 27 The Mayor recalled for the benefit of those present that the City of 28 Minneapolis had officially accepted this form of charitable fund 29 raising recently and said Ray Nelson, the City' s Liquor Manager, had 30 indicated he perceived the activity might benefit his operation. 31 The legal ramifications of � having pull tabs sold in municipal liquor 32 stores had been fully explored in memoranda from both the City 33 Manager and Attorney, which had been included in the Council ' s October 34 22nd agenda packet. However , a decision had again been deferred for 35 further information from the Lions Club related to the international 36 organization' s activities in Kenya, which had been of particular 37 concern to Councilmember Makowske. 38 Mr. Soth added to the information he had previously given by saying: 39 *if the Council simply approved the sale of pull tabs in 40 St. Anthony, Minnesota law would permit any applicant to get a 41 license from the state unless' a resolution against. that license 42 were adopted within 30 days ; • 43 4 •1 *however, - that veto power .would. have- to, be supported by very 2 good reasons for denying a license to only that applicant; 3 *the City could conceivably establish regulations and restric- 4 tions to limit the locations; and even restrict the operations 5 to local organizations, but the basis for those distinctions 6 would have to be specifically defined, not arbitrary. 7 Councilmembers acting as "devil' s advocates" proposed various worst 8 case scenarios related to what could happen if the pull tab sales were 9 restricted to municipal on-sale liquor stores . 10 Ranallo: wondered if the two bowling alleys where the City. permits 11 the sale of 3 . 2 beer would question the City' s allowing 12 pull tabs to be sold only in their own on-sale establish- 13 ments. 14 Childs: indicated he had given some thought to that happening and 15 had concluded 3 . 2 beer did not meet the qualifications for 16 alcoholic beverages which the City desires to control by 17 restricting sales to only municipally operated facilities; 18 said the same argument could probably be made related to the 19 Council ' s desire to control gambling activities by limiting 20 such operations only to locations which the City controls. 41 Soth: agreed that the City might be able to legitimately argue 22 that it would only be in municipally run locations that the. 23 City could oversee gambling operations ; but 24 another interpretation might be made that St. Anthony was 25 limiting the operation* to its own facilities for its own 26 gain. 27 Sundland: suggested the response to that interpretation would probably 28 be that state law already established that rents which the 29 City may charge may not exceed those which would be reason- 30 ably charged for the square footage the pull tab operation 31 used and not based on a percentage of the profits. 32 Soth: said he didn' t think the issue was quite that simple because 33 someone might then make the argument that by restricting the 34 operation to only municipally run facilities , St. Anthony 35 might be trying to circumvent the law which says the City 36 can' t issue a license for the sale of pull tabs . 37 Childs: said he understood New Brighton had restricted the pull tab 38 operations to only on—sale and not 3 . 2 facilities in their 39 city, which- include charitable organization restaurants and 40 41 bars :as well as private es.tablishments..which are licensed to 02 sell liquor. 5 J 1 Ranallo: asked whether the City could limit the causes which would be 2 supported b pp y pull tab profits to only those which benefit 3 St. Anthony citizens. 4 Soth: told him the law had just been amended to prevent cities 5 from "requiring an organization to make specific expendi- 6 tures of more than ten percent from its net profits derived 7 from lawful gambling. 8 Enrooth: said he understood the City could only direct that ten per- 9 cent stay within the municipality but could not specifi- 10 cally direct to which cause it would go. 11 In view of the above restrictions, Councilmembers indicated their 12 intent related to changing the ordinance as follows: 13 Marks: perceived the Councilmembers had already made an ordinance 14 decision that to avoid giving only one or a few organiza- 15 tions the right to conduct charitable gambling in the City, 16 it would be better just to say "no" to all of them; and 17 he personally thought that should be the Council ' s stand 18 at this time no matter what pressures are applied or what 19 good causes are involved. • 20 Enrooth: perceived the control the City could have would be only 21 minimal in terms of groups -or numbers because there would 22 most likely be at least ten different local groups who 23 would qualify for licenses from the state while the City 24 would only be able to contract with one or two of these 25 if pull tab sales were restricted to only the two municipal 26 on-sale operations; 27 added that the Council had just made a substantial financial 28 investment towards upgrading the atmosphere in the Stoneho- 29 use and he could not see where pull tabs would lend themsel- 30 ves towards improving that image ; 31 said he had not changed the perception he had when the 32 Council had originally taken a stand against pull tabs that 33 11this type of activity would not be one I want to see in 34 St. Anthony. " 35 Ranallo: indicated he understood the most "lucrative locations for 36 pull tabs right now were bowling alleys and he anticipated j 37 the owners of the two City alleys would be questioning the 38 City' s decision t.o keep the operations in their own facili- 39 ties; j 40 • 41 perceived the City would probably be facing the same diffi 42 culty saying no to an organization once this type of 6 :•1 �-ac'tivity is allowed. in the City, :as -it now faced refusing 2 to let ' an amusement arcade go into Apache with the Fun 3 Center operating in another shopping .center; . . i 4 questioned whether the City might not be discriminating. 51 against what is perceived to be a desirable thing for .. 6 St. Anthony, the non-alcoholic Alternative bar, when. it 7 restricted the pull tabs to the municipal liquor establish- 8 ments; 9 concluded that the ten percent the City would get to keep 10 was not worth the hassle the City might expect to get from 11 very worthy applicants, including the City' s own Fire 12 reserves . 13 Makowske: agreed with Councilmember Marks that the whole process of 14 making a decision related to pull tabs had been ."a very 15 painful one" ; 16 said she had gone from "not liking them at all" to being 17 educated. to see them in a different light after attending 18 the Ramsey County League of Local Government' s meeting where 19 she had come to see that there might be some very worthy 20 organizations and causes which would gain from pull tab 21 profits ; 02 reported she had also almost been convinced by the Lion 23 Club members she talked to that this might be an easy way 24 for the City to make more money, which had been reaffirmed 25 by the Liquor Manager , saying this type of activity might be 26 helpful to his operation; 27 however, after realizing how little control the City would 28 actually have over how the profits are spent, changed her 29 mind and was now leaning towards voting against the pro- 30 posal. 31 Girard Insists 50% of Pull Tab Profits Would Stay In St. Anthony 32 When Mayor Sundland asked the Lions members whether they had. anything 33 new to add to what they had already told the Council which might 34 change what he perceived would be at least a 4 to 1 vote against their 35 proposal, the Lion Club President said: 36 *although the City might only be able to make 10% of the. profits 37 through rents , there was nothing in the state amendment which 38 would prevent the Lions Club from giving St. Anthony 50% of the 39 .profits the club members had already agreed should remain in 40 St . Anthony; 01 7 1 *said that money' could' underwrite projects like.' upgrading the playgrounds installing-installing . lights- on the softball. diamonds , or any . •. 3 other improvements the City.. wants to make but • • can ' t:.budget for; . •: 4 *indicated their own budgets were also limited at this time- and. 5 the profits from the pull tabs cold be used to augment many of 6 the local projects the Lions wanted to do more in; F 7 *argued further that most of ,the profits used for improvements 8 in St. Anthony would come from bar patrons who live outside the } 9 City. 10 When Mr. Girard said he had been told the City had the right to 11 direct by ordinance which organizations it preferred, ,Mr. Soth told 12 him the City couldn' t just arbitrarily choose the Lions Club over 3 13 other organizations who had indicated an interest, but would first 14 have to establish a class or category with criteria which would have 15 to be met by anyone who fell within that category. 16 17 Councilmember Ranallo indicated that, if that was the case. he 18 - perceived it . might be difficult to refuse, an organization whose cause 19 might not be perceived to be good for the community. 20 Mayor Sundland told Mr. Girard he guessed the Council would have to 21 take the advice of the City Attorney which was based on research they 22 had asked him to do six weeks ago. He reiterated that there was 23 probably no use asking for a motion which four of the Councilmembers. 24 had again indicated- they would be voting against. He therefore ruled 25 that the Council would not be entertaining a change to allow pull 26 tabs in Ordinance 1987-001 . 27 Mr. Girard asked that the Lions Club be included with other organiza- 28 tions to be considered if the ' Council ever changed its mind, reiterat 29 ing that he continued to believe such action would benefit the City 30 just as much as his organization. 31 Mr. Soth left the meeting at 8 : 30 P.M. 32 CITY MANAGER REPORTS 33 November 17 , 1987 Staff Meeting Notes 34 *Hamer Hopes to Get St. Anthony Boulevard Striped This Week 35 The Manager said the Public Works Director is trying to get 36 Ramsey County to do that work right away 'so the state engineer 37 can give final approval to the reconstruction project once that 38 is accomplished. 39 *Manager Directed To Prepare Proposal for Goal Setting Sessions 40 in February • 8 • .1; The Government Training Service offer to facilitate the above 2 -- had been- included in the agenda packet as a reminder - that pre 3- pa-tations' should be made . soon. Mr . Childs indicated he would 4 summarize what the- 1986 - session had cost and accomplished -and 5 would contact the various facilitators Councilmembers had indi- 6 cated as soon as the Council had decided what the thrust of the 7 sessions should be. He requested Councilmembers let him know 8 which dates they had open for these meetings. 9 Impending Legislation Reported During Mayors Association Meeting, 10 November 18th .11 Mr. Childs said he had represented the Mayor at the above meeting 12 where the North Suburban Mayors Association members had been informed 13 that legislation addressing the costs counties incur with tax incre- 14 ment projects: was being considered for the next legislative session. 15 Problems with soil corrections in this type of projects would also be 16 considered, he, said. 17 No Action Taken Regarding Ramsey County Library Issue 18 There was no interest on the Council for getting involved in the 19 controversy about where the new library would be sited in spite of 20 the request from the Shoreview Mayor that St. Anthony support his 21 City' s position with the County Commissioners. 12 Childs Guardedly Encouraged After Meeting with Army in Washington, 3 D. C. , November 19th 24 This was the first time the . Army representatives had specifically 25 discussed the costs of the damages St. Anthony had suffered from 26 TCAAP groundwater contamination, the Manager said. He indicated the 27 fact that the Army . was now asking to . see specific documentation 28 related to the City' s long term costs and indicated he perceived 29 their willingness to meet with City representatives in the near future 30 to discuss those hard figures might just possibly mean the Army 31 might at last be ready to settle with the City. He cautioned the 32 Council about being too optimistic, however. 33 First -of. Modeling Equipment for Carbon Filtration Plant Expected to 34 Arrive Next Day .35 Although the proposed carbon filtration plant would probably not be 36 fully operational next summer, Mr. Childs said indications now are 37 that there was a chance at least some of the equipment would be 38. delivered by then and work would be underway." He also reported that 39 the modeling equipment is expected to arrive on November 25th and . 40 installation of this test equipment would start on December lst. He 41 indicated it had taken some real effort to overcome some of the snags 42 which had occurred in the process.. The . Manager was thanked for all 43 he had done to get the project started. • 9 i i 1 NEW BUSINESS • 2 Council ' Adopts Resolution Approving budget .Transfer " for City Office 3 Remodeling 4 Motion by Marks, seconded by Ranallo to adopt Resolution 87-037 . 5 RESOLUTION 87-037 6 A RESOLUTION MODIFYING THE 1987 BUDGET 7 Motion carried unanimously. 8 City to Take Advantage Perceived Benefits of Investing in LMC' s Money._ E 9 Market Fund - 10 The Manager explained why he thought the City would be better .able 11 to enhance its investment . earnings by joining with other Minnesota 12 municipalities in the above program to be supervised by the League 13 Board of which Councilmember Ranallo is a member .

COMMISSION AT DECEMBER 8TH COUNCIL MEETING 20 PUBLIC HEARINGS 21 Confusion Over Staff Direction Prompts Commissioners to Recommend Only 22 One Sign Variance for Mickey D' s Restaurant 23 Testimony had been taken during the public hearing on the request from 24 Michael Farrell for the necessary variances to the City Sign Ordinance 25 to allow three signs on the remodeled Mickey D' s Restaurant at 2905 26 Kenzie Terrace. However , because there was a lack of quorum of 27 Commissioners to make a , decision, the hearing was continued to the i8 November 30th Commission meeting. 1 Manager :Indicates sign Erected on- Front of Restaurant Since Hearing Is•. • ' 2 41 Square Feet Larger Than City Ordinance Allows 3 The Chair continued -the November 17th hearing at 7 : 42 P.M. by 4 requesting a staff report on the issues which were involved. 5 Mr. Childs said he understood the sign company had come to see Mr. 6 Hamer the day following the hearing when the Manager was not in his 7 office and the Building Inspector had issued a .permit for an 82 square 8 foot sign based on calculations the sign company had made that they 9 needed 42 square . feet . for "Mickey" ; 6 square feet for "D" ; 4 square 10 feet for " ' S 10-1/2 square feet for "Family" and 19 square feet for 11 "Restaurant" . 12 The Manager then read that portion of St. Anthony' s Sign Ordinance 13 which states that signage should be calculated on the square footage 14 of the rectangle enclosing all the sign lettering, which in this case, 15 he said would bring the sign surface up to 1.41 square feet, 41 square 16 feet more than the Ordinance would allow for this building with 17 approximately 50 feet of frontage and calling for a variance of that 18 much for the sign. 19 As he had stated at the hearing, the Building Inspector had consulted 20 him about the signage early in October when the applicant were in Mr . 21 Hamer ' s office. Without knowing the front dimensions , Mr . Childs said 22 he had advised Mr_. Hamer the building would be allowed 2 square feet 23 for every front foot. If the applicant wanted to keep the roof sign or 24 put additional signage on the side of the building in addition to the 25 front sign, he would have to apply for variances for that additional 26 signage because the City Ordinance only allows one sign per business 27 with sometimes a variance for a second sign granted for a corner 28 business . 29 The November 17th minutes indicated that Tim Gow, the - sign represen- 30 tative that evening, had given the Commissioners a drawing of an 8 X 8 31 foot sign reading "Mickey D' s" which the applicant wanted to put up 32 over one side of the "Mr. Hobo" roof sign and had been specifically 33 informed that sign surface should actually be 6-4 square feet, accord- 34 ing to the ordinance calculations and not 27 square feet as indicated 35 in the October 30th letter from his company. 36 The minutes had also indicated that Commissioner Werenicz , noting .the 37 discrepancies between what appeared to be a 200 square foot sign from 38 the drawings submitted by the sign company and the applicant ' s 39 testimony that much .less signage was being requested, as well as the 40 disputed size of the roof sign, had suggested the applicant and his 41 . sign . company sit- down with staff to ascertain just what would 42 constitute acceptable signage for .St. Anthony. 2 Mr . Childs recalled' specifically suggesting -to the -applicant that c, because the City in the past - had granted 'a variance for a second sign (VI 3 fora corner business;.' he might want to split the copy he was propos 4 ing for the front sign :into two separate signs with a -3 X 20 foot ( 60 5 square feet) "Mickey D' s" sign to be put up on the -front of the 6 building and a 2 X 20 foot ( 40 square feet) ."Family Restaurant" sign 7 could be placed on the east side since both signs would meet the 8 total 100 square feet of signage the ordinance allowed a building 9 within a 50 foot frontage. 10 The Manager reported he had noticed the front sign was already up when 11 he returned from his Washington D.C. trip and when he looked for 12 permit in the files found a drawing for a front sign which was 13 designated as having 82 square feet and on which Mr . Hamer had written 14 "sign per sketch, 82 square feet, one sign on front of building" 15 before signing. 16 Mr. Childs indicated he was not aware of any municipal ordinance in 17 any city which allowed signage to be calculated the way E.S. I . had 18 calculated the dimensions of this sign ad said he thought most sign 19 people knew that was not the way to calculate signage. He also 20 recalled that Mr. Farrell and the sign company representative had 21 been specifically advised that the City ordinance did not allow 22 signage to be calculated that way during the hearing. 463 _Gow..Tes.tifies Not Unusual _fo.r._ City Ordinances .to. Allow Signage to Be 4 Calculated The Way He Does It 25 Tom Gow, who had signed the October letter to Mr. Hamer specifying 26 what signage was being requested for the restaurant, said it had been 27 he and not his brother , Tim Gow, who had appeared with Mr. Farrell 28 November 17th, who had worked with Mr . Farrell on his sign package.. 29 He also said it had been he who had met with Mr. Hamer early in 30 October and it was during' that meeting that "calculations for the 31 front sign were made for each word specifically and how the sign 32 would be laid out was clarified for Mr. Hamer" , leading to the 33 Building Inspector approving the permit for the sign November 18th. 34 He explained that this type of business sign consists of internally 35 neon lighted columns , known as "channel lettering" ,- and, in fact, each 36 letter is a fixture which can be considered to be a sign in some 37 cases. He recognized that this differed from the City Ordinance as 38 stated by the City Manager , but wanted it understood that the original 39 calculations were made "under the supervision of Mr. Hamer" . 40 Mr . Farrell said before he had signed a check for $5, 000 for that one 41 sign he had personally gotten verbal assurance from Mr . Hamer that it 42 was O.K. Mr . Gow added that the Building Inspector had also told them 43 the new copy on- the roof sign and the reader board on the east 44 required variances for which they had applied and paid the required 45 fees. 0 i l The sign company representative indicated he thought his October 30th, 2 letter to Mr . Hamer-' accurately described the specific i-terns he was . 3 -looking for in this- particular business . He added that ,t,-ie size of A* the letters was -determined' from a' chart designating - what. size 5 characters would be required to attract . business from the local. 6 traffic which was the real reason these variances were so important to 7 the owner. 8 When Commissioner Hansen asked whether Mr. Gow hadn' t thought it -might 9 be unusual to compute signage surface by -lettering, including the 10 apostrophes, Mr. Gow indicated it was typical for other cities to use 11 channel letters, especially for malls in the Twin Cities where signage 12 is a continuous band and signage is calculated by words identifying 13 individual tenants . 14 Commissioner .Werenicz told him he- failed to see the connection between 15 mall signs and signage for an isolated building. 16 Mr. Gow said he would check his files for the names of other cities 17 whose ordinances calculated signage in this manner but when pressed by 18 Commissioner Hansen, gave the names of Blaine and Moundsview. The 19 sign company representative also conceded that "individual words were 20 usually measured and it might be unusual to measure the "D" and " ' s" 21 , separately as was done in this case. Mr. Farrell reiterated his 22 experience in the restaurant business and said he had "actually 23 turned around one million dollar business" , so certainly knew how 24 important signage was . 25 When Commissioner Hansen questioned why if signage was so important, 26 they had waited until the last thing to bring the sign package to the 27 City, Mr. Farrell indicated he had checked with Mr . Hamer the first 28 day he walked into .the building to take it over, "either October 1 or 29 2 , " having already gone to 7 other sign companies for estimates before 30 that time. Mr. Gow said they already had the sign package decided. on 31 when- they first saw Mr. Hamer and had ordered the signs , which took 8 32 weeks to make , right after the interview, sometime around the first or 33 second of October. 34 Applicant to Drop Reader Board but Perceives Roof Sign Important 35 Mr . Farrell indicated the "vibrations" about the sign being "tacky" , 36 etc. he had gotten at the hearing had convinced him that he would 37 probably have to "eat" the $1 , 200 he had spent on the reader board for 38 the east side. He said he was therefore only looking for a variance 39 that evening for a sign which would "replace the ' Mr. Hobo ' atmosphere 40 from that area. " 41 He indicated the sign surface had "been cleaned up and painted over to 42 look much better and was now requesting to put up the "Mickey D' s" 43 sign 'to face away from the neighborhood. He reiterated that the sign 44 "'would be much less signage" and would give off less light for the 45 closest home in which the previous Mr . Hobo owner lives . 4 41 -Mr. Farrell indicated he had "already spent $100 ,000 fixing the 2 building up"• and' said ' he would .,have never spent that kind of money 3 .without believing he would get adequate signage. Mr. Gow indicated he 4 'perceived the Commission should take the fact that the signs were 5 made locally, weren' t "chintzy and were "the best in the country" 6 when deciding on the variance. 7 *No one else was present to provide further input and the Chair 8 closed the hearing at 8 : 09 P.M. for development of a recommendation to 9 the Council. 10 Franzese: perceived the applicants had negotiated in good faith for 11 the front sign which is already up; 12 indicated it might be a matter of educating staff further 13 regarding the sign ordinance so miscommunications related to 14 signage could be avoided in the future; 15 said as she saw it, by ordinance calculation, there were 16 already 141 square feet of signage where the ordinance only 17 allows • 100 and the applicants were now asking_ for a variance 18 for an additional 64 square feet by the City' s calculations , 19 27 by their own; reiterated that the community was glad to see the new rest- aurant come in but there was a definite conflict with the 22 Sign Ordinance. 23 Madden: said he felt if the applicants were given approval for 82 24 square feet of signage by their calculations unless there ' s 25 a reason for doubting their word, the Commission should 26 start from that premise. 27 Childs : indicated he had confirmed that 82 square feet was what Mr . 28 Hamer had approved with the permit dated November 18th, the 29 day after the hearing; 30 again read the City Ordinance which he thought sign com- 31 panies usually consulted before proposing signage; 32 considering that the drawing for the roof sign talked about 33 borders , etc . , indicated he thought the Commission had to be 34 considering a variance for 64 square feet of signage; 35 reiterated that the notice of the hearing had said 27 36 square feet of roof signage based on the sign company' s 37 October 30th letter, but the drawing for the 8 X 8 foot 38 sign had not been. seen before Tim Gow distributed it at the 39 hearing and told exactly how the City Ordinance would 40 calculate the surface. • 5 i I Gow: interjected that Mr .-.Hamer had seen the drawing of the 2 sign drawn to scale but- without dimensions indicated on...it. . . J 3 Wagner : agreed -that the Commission had to accept the front sign as 4 a -."legal approved" sign but did not have to agree it was 5 "an 82 square foot sign, but rather whatever size our' 6 ordinance says it is. " 7 Madden: said that was right, but in considering a variance, "the . 8 City had to consider 82 square feet is up there now. " ; 9 agreed 64 square feet in addition to the 82 would be "too 10 much" but didn' t have a firm feel for approving or dis- 11 approving a variance for a second sign. 12 Werenicz : found it "irritating" that this was almost a repeat of what 13 happened at the Dairy Queen where a businessman had spent 14 money on signs based on erroneous information from a City 15 official; 16 indicated he would consider the existing sign to be 141 17 square feet, which exceeds the City Ordinance and not 18 grant a variance for any more signage. 19 Wagner: agreed the existing sign might be a "legal" sign which is 2p 141 square feet, according to our ordinance and therefore • 21 more than the 100 square feet allowed that business , making 22 it "in effect a variance, and all we should grant for .this 23 building. " 24 Hansen: agreed with that assumption, saying .he had driven all around 25 the area and perceived the exposure is there and saw no 26 location from which identification would be missing; 27 said signage would be a key factor in the redevelopment of 28 that particular area and the city was in fact talking about 29 decreasing the amount of retail which would be replaced . with 30 housing; 31 indicated he perceived it would be a mistake to start in- 32 creasing signage from what the ordinance allowed now . and 33 could be a detriment to the new development -going into the 34 shopping center ; 35 concurred that an error had been made but said he didn' t 36 find the sign which had gone up to be offensive. But stated 37 does find the pylon structure on the roof offensive even 38 without signage. 39 London: generally agreed with Commissioners who have said the Com- 40 mission should acknowledge this to be a legal sign which is 41 already approved by the City Building Inspector ; . 6 •1 perceived the City's options were limited by the -fact the 2 sign is already .up. and paid for ; j 3 . .,. wouldn' t vote to - bring the signage any further .over the • f 4 amount allowed by the ordinance; 5 said he would approve the sign as it sits and that would 6 be it. 7 Wagner : said he could go along with staff ' s recommendation to split 8 the front sign into two signs with one put on the east -side 9 if the owner really felt the need for two exposures. 10 Hansen:: indicated he could go along with that suggestion; 11 added that if the sign company had taken more time for more 12 discussions with the City, that could have been done from 13 the start, eliminating some of the work which is already 14 done. 15 Franzese: agreed the City had to accept the front sign as .approved, 16 however, perceived the Commission' s charge was also to 17 encourage commercial activity; and 18 19 perceived there might be a need for signage on the east 00 side as well as the front of the building to catch the 1 attention of anyone driving south on 88 or coming across 22 the bridge from St. Paul who cannot see the sign which is 23 already up; 24 25 but did not see the need for the big sign on the top 26 because any sign on that side of the building would have 27 visibility; 28 believed that whether moving the words "Family Restaurant" 29 to the east side, or what, some identification was neces- 30 sary within the realm of helping them do a good business 31 and succeed in that location. 32 Childs : : reiterated for the benefit of the sign company representa- 33 tive that the way he saw it was that -the Planning Commission 34 had met on the 17th and discussed fully just how the ordin- 35 ance would calculate the square footage on the drawing they 36 had presented for the.. front sign, pointing out to them . that 37 -i perhaps their calculations were wrong and the next day - they 38 went in and applied for a permit for a sign, using the 39 same calculations . 40 41 indicated he was willing to take the responsibility for 42 the staff error and for handling it with the Building • 7 1 ' 'Inspector but wanted the record .to .show there had been full 2 discussions- on the. sub.ject the prior evening. • 3 Franzese : indicated she had the same recollections and was just trying 4 ' to bend over -a bit to let the proprietors know the Commis- 5 sion was glad to have them in the community. 6 Hansen:- said from reading the minutes , he agreed that the applicants 7 had ignored the Commission' s recommendations• to clear the 8 matter up before putting up the sign. 9 Werenicz : asked whether the restaurant would be open �to splitting. the 10 front sign to put "Family Restaurant" on the east side for 11 better exposure because he would be opposed to recommending 12 anything else on the side as long as they retained the 13 signage on the front. 14 Mr . Farrell said he "would have to tear down the whole front to do 15 that and it would cost him $17 , 000 to tear down the existing pylon 16 sign on the roof , and it would only cost about $2 , 300 to put the 17 proposed sign up instead. He said he had not even connected the front 18 sign -yet because "the pylon is where all the power is" . He told 19 Commissioner Werenicz the letters in the front sign are specially 20 constructed to connect to the mansard roof . 21 During the development of a motion the City Manager indicated he 22 perceived that the fact that the permit had been granted in error 23 would not make the front sign a non-conforming sign, and, even though 24 there had been a staff error in this - case, a variance to allow the 25 excessive signage to remain would probably be in order. Mr. Childs 26 recalled that case law had already ruled that administrative error 27 didn' t make something legal or necessarily make the City liable .for 28 the error . He therefore disagreed with Commissioner Madden that a 29 variance was unnecessary. 30 The Manager also pointed out that he knew the Commissioners didn' t 31 intend to let the Dairy Queen keep all the signage the owner con- 32 tended had been approved by someone in the City offices without a 33 variance and it would not now be fair to treat this business any 34 differently. Mr. Childs told Mr. Farrell the copy on the pylon could 35 not be considered to be "grandfathered in" since it had been turned 36 off a long time now since the restaurant had been closed. 37 Commissioner Hansen told Commissioner Madden he perceived the Commis- 38 sion would have protested the excessive signage even if .no further 39 variances were sought . 40 Commission Recommendation 41 Motion by Werenicz ,, seconded by Wagner to recommend to the Council 42 that a variance be granted to the business known as "Mickey D' s 43 Family -Restaurant." at 2905 Kenzie Terrace for the signage which has 8 • 1 already been erected on the front .portion .of :the building for the 41 •2 square feet .over .the 100 square : feet the. City Sign Ordinance allows = 3 that building and- that no additional variances be granted. f'br . addi- 4 tional signage on the structure. 5 Motion carried unanimously. i 6 Before the applicants left, . Mr. Childs clarified the question of the 7 pylon sign further by telling them that since :the ordinance only 8 allowed them one sign when they got permission to. put up the front 9 sign, that : was given in lieu of the roof sign and the reader board 10 for which they had been advised they would have to seek variances. 11 They had, ' in effect, ' given up their right to keep the pylon sign when 12 they put up the front sign. 13 Welcome Reiterated 14 Commissioners Hansen and Wagner told Mr. Farrell they were glad to 15 have such a good business replace the unsuccessful one which had 16 previously been in that location and they anticipated they and their 17 families would be among the many St. Anthony residents who would take 18 advantage of home style cooking. 19 20 All Commissioners Concur That Rapid Oil ' s Pylon Sign Has to Come Down - 21 At 8 : 35 P.M. , the Chair continued the November 17th hearing to 18'2 consider a Petition for Sign Variance from Mark Gilbertson, Project 3 Manager for Rapid Oil Change, to - allow the business at 3701 Silver 24 Lake Road to leave in place an existing, non-conforming, free-standing 25 sign on their property at the corner of 37th Avenue and Silver Lake 26 Road. 27 Staff Mr . Childs recalled the sign in question had been allowed 28 Report: Rapid Oil when they took over this property in 1984 and 29 while they were still selling gasoline as an auxiliary to 30 the quick lube service Rapid Oil Change normally offers 31 its customers at its other locations; 32 read aloud the portion of the ordinance which indicated 33 free-standing signs were only permitted to gas stations -34 which "shall be allowed in addition to all other authorized 35 signs, one pylon sign to identify the gasoline brand" ; 36 reported that at some point this summer Rapid Oil had 37 ceased to .sell gasoline, having removed the last two pump 38 islands . This had resulted in the City telling them to 39 remove the pylon sign and the company' s decision to apply 40 for a variance to retain the signage; 41 42 reiterated that because of the company' s concern that people 43 might think they had left that corner when the business is 44 shut. down -for remodeling,.. he .was.. recommending--removal not be 9 i 1 -required until-� a-fter the' reconstruction is completed which 2 .the company representatives- have said could . .take 9(,'l days; 3 however, thought it was important that a firm. date .for re- 4 moval be placed on that allowance. 5 Proponents : Mr. Gilbertson, who reiterated that an. important justi 6' fication for- retaining the sign had erroneously been 7 omitted from his "Statement of Hardships" which had 8 accompanied the petition; 9 said that involved the loss of gas sales profits Rapid 10 Oil had experienced when condemnation and reconstruc- 11 tion of 37th Avenue had made it economically unfeasible 12 for the company to make the investment necessary to re- . 13 place and continue with only two pumps after the two 14 islands had to be taken out to widen that intersection; 15 told Commissioner Hansen they would be reducing the 16 total signage on the building during remodeling which 17 would require them to completely close down the 18 business for around three weeks. 19 Steve Moldenhauer, Regional Manager for Rapid Oil 20 Change, also reiterated testimony he had given Nov 21 ember 17th related to the effect the loss of land had 22 on his company' s ability to continue in the gas busin- 23 ess , including the property congestion which followed, 24 the widening of 37th; 25 told Commissioner Hansen Rapid Oil sells gas in a 26 couple other locations in the Twin Cities ; 27 28 in answer to questions related to the tanks having to 29 be removed even if the roadway had not been widened, - 30 said the environmental conditions of the tanks were 31 still all right although there was always a possibil- 32 ity for leaks in tanks 15 or 20 years old. 33 Commissioners Perceive Insufficient Justification .for Allowing Pylon 34 to Remain 35 No one .else was present to provide further input to the discussion and 36 the Chair closed the hearing at 8 : 45 P.M. for the following Commis- 37 sioner comments : 38 Hansen: indicated he had always been concerned about the proximity 39 of the gas pumps to that intersection and he foresaw there 40 might -be problems with leaving that pylon sign on that 41 corner now that the whole intersection had been widened; ' • 10 noted that the pylon didn' t even match . the :color or letter— noted 'ang on the existing building. - 3 Wagner: questioned whether condemnation proceedings might not have 4 already- started when Rapid Oil took over the. property; I 5 was told by the Manager that with public hearings starting 6 way back in the 70 ' s on- the project, he was quite certain 7 references to the widening would have -had to be included 8 in the title investigation which preceded Rapid Oil ' s acqui- 9 sition of that property; 10 indicated he agreed with other Commissioners' observations 11 during the November 17th hearing, that even without the 12 pylon, Rapid Oil enjoyed better visibility than the 13 neighboring businesses ; 14 concluded by stating he perceived the pylon had to come down 15 because the business is not a gas station and the sign is 16 now in violation of the City Ordinance relating to free- 17 standing signs . 18 Commissioners Madden, werenicz, and London concurred that the pylon 19 sign should be removed in the following motion: ' �0 Commission Recommendation 21 Motion by Hansen, seconded by werenicz to recommend the Council deny 22 the request from Rapid Oil Change for a variance from the provisions 23 of the City Sign Ordinance which allows free-standing signs for only 24 gas stations but to allow them to retain the non-conforming free- 25 standing sign at 3701 Silver Lake Road until their remodeling is 26 completed sometime in the early spring with the stipulation that the 27 sign .must be removed upon completion of remodeling but no later than 28 June 1 , 1988 . In recommending denial , the Planning Commission finds 29 that since the business no longer sells gas , the pylon sign would be 30 in violation of the exceptions for gas stations stated in the Sign 31 Ordinance. 32 Motion carried unanimously. 33 Commission Concurs with Concept of Low Profile Development of American 34 Monarch Property 35 In their agenda packet , Commissioners had been provided with copies of 36 the October 21st request from American Monarch manager , Ed Fiore; site 37 drawings of the plant property at 2801-37th avenue N.E. ; and minutes 38 of the meetings early in 1979 where both the Planning Commission and 39 Council had extensively explored further development of the property 40 with. a large number of the neighbors . 11 i k I A's they had in '1979 , 'the major thrusts of the informal discussion with • 2 Mr. Fiore centered around American Monarch' s year-;:o-year , lease of 3 .land from the Soo Line Railroad for parking and 'the "gentlemen' s 4 agreement" reached that - year relative to the retention of about . 1-1/2 r 5 acres of unused property to the east for additional parking in the 6 event of plant growth in the future. 7 Mr. Fiore indicated,, as he had stated in his letter , that was. not 8 likely to happen now that his company' s owners in the East . had made a 9 corporate decision that no further expansion would be made in Min- 10 nesota because of what was perceived to be a "poor business climate" j 11 in the state. E 12 When Chair Franzese indicated a concern there might not -be enough 13 parking potential for the company who might replace American Monarch 14 if the corporate misgivings about Minnesota made them decide to move 15 the entire company, , Mr. Fiore assured her there was very little 16 likelihood that would ever happen because he said his company had too 17 much invested here to move the whole plant and, even when the number 18 of employees reached the 200 cap, in five years or so he would expect 19 only a portion of the plant to be moved. 20 Mr. Fiore also assured the Chair that, as a member of American 21 Monarch ' s Board of Directors , he would be vigorously lobbying against 22 any such move, having moved his whole family from the East and having 23 bought a home in Andover and a place up north. 24 The plant manager recalled the furor with which the neighbors had 25 greeted a suggestion in 1979 , the first year he was in St. Anthony, 26 that a Country Kitchen Restaurant be erected on the company property 27 -just west of the gas station on the corner which had prompted him to 28 tell the realtors and land speculators who were looking at the , 29 property'-that nothing more active than a low visibility professional 30 building with traffic compatible to a residential neighborhood would 31 be acceptable. 32 Mr'. Fiore indicated they had returned to tell him there was a market 33 of between $160 , 000 and $250 , 000 for that one and one and one-half 34 acres between the plant building and the Amoco station which would 35 leave the plant 128 parking places on plant property and an additional 36 100 spaces on land for which the company now pays $7 , 800 a year to 37 lease from the Soo Line. The ordinance requires 170 parking spaces 38 for this building. 39 Mr. Childs pointed out that there was also space available for parking 40 on the 150 X 70 foot grassy area on the west side which was not being 41 utilized,, where it might be possible to fit in 50 additional parking 42 spaces without encroaching the area currently used for a truck 43 driveway. . 44 Commissioner Wagner pointed out that large car sizes had probably 45 been used in determining the number of parking spaces on the property w 12 • 1 which could. probably be downsized today to match the prevalence of 2 compact cars . 3 Mr. Fiore restated for the benefit of Commissioner Werenicz that "we 4 have to live here and would- want to make sure something attractive 5 which the neighbor's would not oppose would go into that space. 6 Commission Reaction 7 Wagner and no opposition at all. 8 Hansen: 9 Franzese: would like to see a type of business in there which 10 would give St. Anthony a younger look; 11 might attract younger families to live in the City. 12 Werenicz : liked the concept of professional building. 13 Madden: would favor the development of unused property for 14 something "tasteful" . 15 London: would like to see the land used for an attractive 16 building rather than to sit empty. 47 The following was formulated as a "vote of confidence" for the 8 proposal: 19 Motion by Franzese , seconded by Hansen to indicate the Council the 20 Planning Commission' s unanimous approval of American. Monarch Cor- 21 poration' s concept for developing the unused property they own to the 22 west as proposed by the plant manager , Ed Fiore. 23 Motion carried unanimously. 24 Mr . Childs indicated he would not expect Mr. Fiore would have to be 25 present at the Council meeting where the above was presented since 26 only a concept review was involved and staff would be able to let him 27 know if any opposition to his proposal developed on the Council. He 28 would be surprised to see that happen, he said, since the property is 29 zoned industrial and "hopefully something will be developed there 30 which will please everybody. " 31 Brief Manager reports on the development of the final phases of the 32 Kenzie Terrace Redevelopment -Project; the traffic signal on Kenzie 33 Terrace; the community survey which would be taken from December 14th 34 through the 18th and the opening of Mannings Restaurant in the 35 Stonehouse preceded adjournment . 36 Commissioners were advised there was no, business to be considered at 37 the December 15th meeting, which would- be cancelled. 13 .J 1 ADJOURNMENT • t,. 2 'Motion- by -,Madden, seconded--by Wagner to adjourn the Planning Commis- 3 sion at 9 : 10 P.M. 4 Motion carried unanimously. 5 Respectfully submitted, 6 Helen Crowe, Secretary 7 :cjk 8 14 i ® .e DATE December 3, 1987 Mayor and Councilmembers FROM : David M. Childs, City Manager �O I'T EM : MICKEY D'S SIGN VARIANCE REQUEST -The- applicants are requesting three (3) -signs at the former- site of the Mr. -Hobo Restaurant. The ordinance allows one (1) sign not to exceed 100 square feet. The three signs requested are: (see sketches) *141 square foot sign on the south side of copy "Mickey D's Family Restaurant" (this sign is already installed) ; *64 square foot sign on roof on east side only of sign which formerly contained the "Mr. Hobo" letters; *32 square foot reader board type sign on the east side. The south sign was -- installed on a permit issued by Larry Hamer in which the sign company improperly calculated the square footage and Larry Hamer approved the improper calculations. (The sign company measured each individual word and came up with 82 square feet. Our ordinance very clearly does not allow such measurements and establishes the sign area as the square footage of a rectangle encompassing all of the copy. ) In the past, the Council and Commission have allowed a second sign in a corner location, but not to exceed the permitted square footage. The existing sign exceeds the permitted square footage by 41 square feet and therefore, the staff and Commission recommend that no variance be approved and that the existing sign be allowed to remain. :cjk12.8.87 Date: O ZCo Fee : $•25 .00 CITY OF ST.

This signage is included in a extensive and complete renovation of the restaurant, requiring a large investment by the owner. The new restaurant design offers a "FAMILY STYLE" setting. This is an important factor due to the unsuccessful operation of previous attempts under the "Mr. Hobo" name. The site is also a factor. The corner location is a prime commercial site which benefits the owner. This also increases the owner' s operating costs. The signage layout is arranged to attract business from two areas because of the corner lot layout. The size of the signage is determined by the distance to the traffic flow in the area. The large size is required to be effective to reach the main traffic ways of the area. This is necessary to substantiate the business. • The sign package includes: 1 . ) 4' x 8' 32' sq. card reader board for listing specials mounted on side of the building. 2.-) The renovation of the existing 2 sided "Mr. Hobo" pylon sign. This will have the sign face -changed to new neon lighting on one side (27 sq. feet) 3. ) The front- sign- established name and concept of family restaurant. I The signage package is of the highest quality available. This serves the commun- ity as well as the owner. This restaurant will now have family style character- ` istics to enhance the area as one of the pleasant locations as you enter the city area. I a Please find enclosed the exterior scale drawing elevations for your use.. We seek the city approval of this signage package due to the unique reasons described above. Sincerely Tom Gow J .

Childs City Manager — TM : SIGN VARIANCE REQUEST FROM RAPID OIL CHANGE As shown in the attached Notice of Hearing, the Zoning Ordinance allows free-standing signs for service stations. Rapid Oil Change formerly had gas pumps and thus were allowed the existing free-standing sign when they originally opened. (They also got approval for two wall signs due to their corner location. ) The gas tanks and pumps have been removed and the City then asked that the sign be removed to comply with the sign code. The people at Rapid•Oil Change are thus request- ing permission, through a variance, to be allowed to retain the sign. V I recommend denial of the request. They do not have gas pumps, they do have two wall signs and the visibility is not inadequate for the operation of their business.

St. Anthony Village, MN STATEMENT OF PARTICULAR HARDSHIPS ITEM #2: Rapid Oil Change has operated a quick lute business at 3701 Silver Lake Road since November '84. From the time of opening until May '87 gasoline could also be purchased at this location. Due to the new laws governing the underground storage of hazardous chemicals and the poor condition of the underground tanks at the site; the decision was made to remove the tanks and discontinue the sale of all gasoline products. The pylon sign in question has been in place since the store opened. It measures 4'x6' and is approximately 18' high to top. The automotive care nature of our business has not changed appreciably since the termination of the gasoline sales and would cost approximately $500.00 to remove a sign which we spent about $2000.00'to install. Removing the sign will • also reduce our visibility and could result in lost sales for the company. ITEM #3: The conditions upon which the application for variance is based are unique to this piece of property in that due to revisions in the laws governing the underground storage of hazardous chemicals combined with the poor conditions of the existing tanks, necessitated that the tanks be removed. The costs associated with the removal of the existing tanks (now removed) combined with the- estimated costs for new replacement tanks and the increased liability associated with the sale of gasoline were prohibitive and lead to the decision to suspend all gasoline sales at this location. The quick lube portion of the business had been the more successful of the two operations and has remained. Respectfully, RAPID OIL CHANGE Mark J.

Childs/City Manager ST. ANTHONY VILLAGE 3301 Silver Lake Road St. Anthony, MN 55418 RE; East parcel of American Monarch 'Corporation property Dear Dave; - In April the Board of Directors of American Monarch Corporation made a decision to basically limit total employment at our present facility to 200 employees. In line with that decision, I have been directed to pursue the sale of the approximate 12 acre between our building and the AMOCO station. We have done some preliminary work and it appears that there is a market for the piece of property at a price that is attractive to American Monarch Corporation. In talking to several Real Estate agents, we have told them that in our opinion, the City of St. Anthony would not approve a fast food restaurant or similar type business establishment that can be considered a nuisance to the residents across the street. The realtors feel that the site is ideal for a professional type building such as a Medical/Dental Clinic or similar type office building. As you know our present structure is approximately 60,000 Sq.Ft. of manufacturing which would require approximately 170 parking spaces. The present parking facility is 128 on American Monarch property and 100 additional spaces are on property that we lease from the Soo Line on a year-to-year basis. American Monarch has additional property to the West of our building that could be used for 20 more spaces, Giving us a total of 148 against an ordinance requirement of 170. At the present time, American Monarch has 113 employees of which 75 are Production. Of those 75, 7 are on the Second shift which means we have a First shift of 106 people. j David M.Childs East Parcel October 21 , 1987 Page 2 , • I I To double our present production we would probably add 10 people j to the First shift, 60 people to the Second shift and add additional office staff of 10 to the First shift which would give us a total .of 125 people on the First shift and 70-75 on the Second shift. This means we could provide one (1) parking space per employee per shift under the existing American Monarch owned parking facilities. We would appreciate the opportunity to discuss our plans with the Planning Board and Government Bodies which should be involved before- we pursue the sale of the property. Needless to say, I will be available at the convenience of the Boards to review our plans with the hope of obtaining the necessary variances so that the property in question may be used to create additional employment and add economically to the City of St.Anthony. Very truly yours , • Edward J.Fiore Vice President/General Manager cc: Miguel G.Mendoza Chairman of the Board American Monarch Corporation Jess S.Barber President American Monarch Corporation EJF/tg In reference to State Statute 624 . 24 which the City Attorney had researched for the City in 1976 , he said there is apparently no awareness on the part of City officials or disco operators in the other municipalities of such restrictions on this type of activity as are detailed in this statute. Though the existence of such a statute might actually aid the City in the control of such an activity, the Manager questioned whether the City Council would be placed in a tenous position of condoning non-enforcement of the statute if the City ordinances were altered to permit the operation of the dance hall. Motion by Mr. Bjorklund and seconded by Mr . Marks to indicate to the Council the Board' s general approval of the concept of the proposed teen dance center if Mr. Baer is able to get an indication from state officials that such a center is permissible under Statute 624 . 24 and as long as City approval is subject to the retention of at least one uniformed policeman inside the building; the area around the center is supervised and cleaned up and the City is adequately protected from liability . Motion carried unanimously. Ken Johnson, 1927 Simpson, Roseville , who operates the Burger Chef restau- rant, 4004 Silver Lake Road, presented his request that he be allowed to substitute .for the existing 75 square foot sign on top of his building the franchise ' s new logo which is only 43 square feet. He also asked that the 10 foot sign he now has along the driveway be relocated on top of the building where it could direct customers to the drive-up window which will be added when the building is remodeled. There will be no "flashing lights" in the signage but rather the new lexan sign for which he showed site plans will be internally lit. Mr. Johnson told the Board he had been issued a permit in 1969 for a 100 square foot sign which the City requested be put above the building and the signage was reduced last year to 75 square feet. Motion by Mr . Bowerman and seconded by Mr. Jones to recommend that the Council allow Ken Johnson to make the requested change in signage for Burger Chef, 400.4 Silver Lake Road, as per the plans he submitted as long as the total area of signage is not exceeded, finding that it would appear to be unreasonable to deny the variance to the Sign Ordinance for the change since the proposed sign brings the signage for Burger Chef into closer conformance with the City ' s current sign philosophy and a hardship to Mr. Johnson might result from forcing him to retain the old signage. -Motion carried unanimously. Edward J. Fiore of American Monarch Corporation, 2801 37th Avenue N.E. , appeared to discuss with the Board the projected need for 25% more floor area within his existing plant for which he presented conceptual drawings for the proposed expansion of the building. These included plantings which he said had been suggested by the City Manager to provide relief from the elongated line of the building which he admitted will "resemble an airplane hangar" .. The plant manager told of efforts of his company to secure more land for parking in the rear from the Soo Line and detailed the steps he is prepared ( 3) to. take to prevent his employees from parking on- adjoining residential streets especially during the construction period . He estimated the ex pansion plans will create a need for from 200 to -240., parking spaces and the drawings indicated parkin., facilities on the east side of the building .which can be developed if negotiations -with the Soo Line are unsuccessful . '.--'Mr. Klink said he had lived across 37th. Aveneu from American Monarch for four years and had been surprised at the few complaints the neighbors had voiced regarding on-street parking by employees of the firm. Mr. Fornell . agreed that there had been an improvement in the past few years . Placement of the time clock will determine the parking habits of most of the employees, Mr. Fiore said, and he promised to communicate to the neighbors his company' s request that they direct .any complaints regarding parking of employees to the company rather than bother the City police . The general consensus of the Board appeared to be favorable to the concept as presented. Mr. Rymarchick reported receiving several inquiries regarding the adver- tised sale of the lots on 33rd Avenue N.E . and Silver Lake Road which are owned by the School District especially as to what type of development would be accepted there . Tom McMullen, I .S .D. #282 ' s Coirmunity Service Director, gave a status report on tie sale of ! . S .D. 282 lots at 33rd Avenue N.E . and Silver Lake Road. He did not anticipate an immediate sale , however, because inabil ` J to locate some pertinent documents was delaying the clearance of. title and suggested the Board might invite Mike Sullivan , Finance Director of District =282 , to tell them how the bids for the property are being handled and whether such bids may be accepted on contingencies that the zoning of the property from R-1 , single family dwelling might be modified by the City to allow multiple or two family dwellings . Board members noted they had not been notified of their reappointment to the Board for the coming year but, assuming this to be just an oversight, took the following actions to reorganize for 1979 : Motion by Mr. Bowerman and seconded by Mr. Rymarchick to hold an election of officers to serve on the Board for 1979 and to nominate George Marks as Chairman and Dick Klink as Chairman Pro Tem. i Motion carried unanimously . I Both indicated a willingness to serve in these capacities . Motion by Mr. Bjorklund and seconded by Mr . Bowerman to close nominations � and declare the nominees to be elected . Motion carried unanimously . Mr . Klick then complimented Mr . Rymarchick and Mr. Marks for their leader- ship of the Board the past year when he felt meetings had been handled i tremely well under very trying circumstances in some instances . Other f (4 ) II CITY OF ST ANTHONY PLANNING BOARD MINUTES February 20 , 1979 1 The meeting was called to order by Chairman Marks at 7 : 30 p.m. Present for roll call: Klick, Marks ; Bowerman, Sopcinski , Rymarchick, Bjorklund and Jones arrived at 7 : 37 p.m. Also present: Jim Fornell, City Manager Ron Berg, Administrative Assistant The minutes for the Board meeting held January 16th were corrected to de- lete the sentence in Paragraph 3 of Page 3 referring to the 10 foot directional sign along the Burger Chef driveway. Motion by Mr. Bowerman and seconded by Mr. Sopcinski to approve the minutes for the January 16 , 1979 Board meeting as corrected. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Klick will represent the Board at the Council meeting to be held February 27th. At 7: 35 p.m. Chairman Marks opened the Public Hearing on variances necessary for the proposed expansion of the American Monarch plant at 2801 37th Avenue N.E. The Manager confirmed that all filing and notification requirements for such a hearing had been met and no one present who should have received such notice reported failure to receive same. However, one resident, Stanley Worwa, 3628 Belden Drive said he objected to the contents of the notice since it failed to address the question of where the plant' s employees will park during the construction period. Mr. Fornell told him that question did not involve a variance per se for which a Public Hearing is required by the City Zoning Ordinance but' would certainly be a vital aspect of the Board's consideration of the proposal . He also told Mr. Worwa that one of the supporting documents furnished by American Monarch for their Petition for Variance had been the "Parking During Construction" which specifically noted the streets in the area the firm anticipates utilizing for off site parking under strict company super- vision from' April through July while the new parking lots are being con- structed. The Chairman then read that document and the amended notice of the hearing which informed the residents within the required distance from the plant of the variances which would be required under the Zoning Ordinance for the proposed expansion of the plant including the rear yard variance which a new survey had indicated would be needed. J Edward J. Fiore, American Monarch Manager, then reiterated the justifica- tions which had been detailed with his Petition for a Variance for the granting of the variances which will permit construction of a 265 x 80 foot addition on the west side -of the existing building for which he -had fur- nished site plans f.or. both parking and landscaping as requested by Mr. �✓ Fornell . He also discussed the lease with the Soo Line Railroad (a ,copy of which was included) which will provide his firm with an additional 56 feet to the rear in which parking can be provided for the bulk of the employees vehicles and told the Board of his firm' s plans to erect a . four foot chain link fence required by the ' railroad which he saw as a prevention of vehicles from Apache crossing- American Monarch property -as is now done and a resultant lowering of the incidents of vandalism now experienced. His presentation included plans for snow storage in that area as. well as storm water drainage which were specific concerns of the Board, as well as details of the addition to the building in two segments of 10 , 000 square feet on each side of the. building. He concluded by telling the Board that not allowing the proposed parking plans could result in the "end of American Monarch in St . Anthony" because, of the 35% increase in production projected by their customers . He replied to Mr. Fornell ' s query about whether the company would proceed with the first segment of. the expansion proposal if the variances necessary to the second were not allowed by say- ing he thought that decision would have to be closely considered in view of the $700 ,000 investment at stake. Before the Public Hearing was closed at 8 : 32 p.m. , there was a lengthy dis- cussion of the manner in which Mr. Fiore intends to keep his employees from becoming a nuisance to the area ' s residents during the construction period and Mr. Worwa said he was satisfied with the company ' s plans for company enforcement of the regulations they had set for such parking and Mr. Fiore ' s later agreement that it might be best to have supervisory anco administrative employees use the off site parking areas where they could provide supervision of other employees . During the period preceding a decision on the proposal Mr. Fiore told the Board he anticipated no problems with parking for his employees even with the second phase of expansion since so many of them are from the immediate area and either walk to work or double up on transportation to the plant. Mr . Bjorklund was concerned *that easements on the property had not been identified in the new survey. Mr. Jones questioned whether the number of employees projected for the expansion might exceed that number thereby requiring additional parking spaces , and Mr . Rymarchick expressed his concern that the lease with the Soo Line could be terminated. and parking space to the rear diminished. Mr. Bjorklund wanted it understood the property to the east of the existing building. could not be used for expansion if the lease termination should make parking inadequate if the addition were built. Mr. Fiore responded by saying the "onus" is on the corporation to provide adequate parking for its employees who will apply internal pressures to see they are provided parking spaces . ; Mr . Fornell thought the City could possibly handle the matter of inadequate I parking if the employee growth outstripped the projections through enforoo ment of parking on off site locations . (2) i Following these assurances , . Mr. Rymarchick said he would move for a recom- mendation of approval -of the proposal under the assumption that the City will get full cooperation from American Monarch regarding off site parking during the construction period as indicated in their proposal . Motion by Mr . Rymarchick and seconded by Mr. Klick to recommend Council approval of a seven foot front yard parking setback variance to provide two additional parking spaces and a 17 foot front yard building setback vari- ance to allow the proposed expansion to be compatible with the symmetry of the existing building, a 15 foot rear yard setback variance as well as a parking setback variance of 10 feet along the entire rear lot line, and finally, a one foot variance to the parking space size requirements which will allow nine instead of 10 toot wide parking spaces as well as the variance necessary for 30 more parking spaces than permitted by the Zoning Ordinance for the proposed 80 ' x 265 expansion of the American Monarch plant to the west, finding that : (a) granting these variances- will relieve the undue hardship caused by the pie shape of this parcel and its parti- cular physical surroundings and topography (b) the purpose for these variances is not based exclusively upon a desire to increase the value or income potential of the parcel but is unique to the existing .tenant and (c) great difficulties and hardships for the tenant might result if vari- ances are not granted. The granting of the variances is however subject to the following conditions: 1 . Further expansion than is presently proposed will not be permitted without assurance of a long term lease with the = � Soo Line which provides adequate off street parking. 2 . American Monarch cannot dispose of the easterly portion of their property which must be kept to provide adequate .parking should the Soo Line lease be terminated. 3. Landscaping shall be provided as per the plans presented from Freeburg Nurseries and will be subject to review by the City Manager. 4 . Investigation by Staff of easements as referenced in the legal description of this property. Voting on the motion: Aye: Jones , Klick, Marks , Bowerman, Sopcinski and Rymarchick Abstention: Bjorklund Motion carried. Mr. Fornell gave a status report on the Comprehensive Plan for the City ` telling of the extensive commitment of time to the study. He anticipates the Plan will be ready for Board review sometime in April . The Johnson Florist litigation should go to court within the next few months, the Manager told Mr. Klick . He also reported a meeting with . the Johnson' s attorney this week . At the request of Mr. Jones the details of the possibility of relocating the Apache Liquor Store and/or Bar were s (3) being -constructed. ' Mr . Fiore assured Mr. Duerre that he could expect a ' ._• response within hours of any complaint about employees parking, since re- j sidents will be requested- 'to direct any reports of annoyance to him per- sonally . He said he has been especially vigilant 'regarding his employees ' parking and doubted the two parked cars Mr. Duerre complained about be- r longed to his employees . The plant manager said his firm now has . adequate t parking spaces for its employees and -there will be 250 parking spaces j provided to accomodate the increase in. personnel with the expansion. • i However, since a major number of the new parking locations will be on the 1 land to the rear of the building American Monarch has leased from Soo Line, ', the City Attorney cautioned the Council that the leased strip "cannot be counted as part of the site and there has to be land available for adequate parking at all times even if additional land is leased for that purpose" . Motion by Councilman Sundland and seconded by Councilman Sauer to grant (as recommended by the Planning Board) a seven -foot front yard parking setback variance to provide two additional parking spaces and a 17 foot front yard building setback variance to allow the proposed expansion to be compatible with the symmetry of the existing building, a 15 foot rear yard setback variance as well as a parking setback variance of 10 feet a- long the entire rear lot line , and finally, a one foot variance to the parking space size requirements. which will allow nine instead of 10 foot wide parking spaces as well as the variance necessary for 30 more parking spaces than permitted by the Zoning Ordinance for the proposed 80 ' x 265' expansion of the American Monarch plant to the west, finding that: (a) granting these variances will relieve the undue hardship caused by the pie shape of this parcel and its particular physical surroundings and topo- graphy (b) the purpose for these variances is not based exclusively upon a desire to increase the value or income potential of the parcel but is unique to the existing tenant and (c) great difficulties and hardships for the tenant might result if variances are not granted. The granting of the variances is however subject to the following conditions : 1 . Further expansion than is presently proposed will not be permitted without the insurance that adequate off street parking is provided on property that is owned by American Monarch. 2 . Landscaping shall be provided as per the plans presented from Freeburg Nurseries and shall be subject to review by the City Manager. 3. The sanctity of the storm sewer easement to the east of the ex- isting building is to be preserved. Motion carried unanimously . Mr. Klick concluded his presentation by reporting the balance of the Board' s meeting was devoted to consideration of proposed changes in the City ' s Sign Ordinance which had been provided by Mr. Berg, for which he commended the Administrative Assistant, and the continuing education of thi Board in the planning processes . The meeting was recessed from 7 : 55 p.m. to 8 :00 p.m. when the Mayor opened the Public Hearing on Street Improvement Project 1979-001 , the rebuilding of Highcrest Road from 37th Avenue N.E ., to the intersection of Old Highway (2) CITY OF ST. ANTH'JNY COUNCIL MINUTES February 27, 19`79 The meeting was called to order at 7 : 35 p.m. by Mayor Haik, I i Present for roll call-: Sauer, Sundland, Haik, Ranallo -and Letourneau. Also present: Jim Fornell, City Manager Bill Soth, City Attorney Ron Berg, Administrative Assistant Carol' Johnson, Clerk/Treasurer Larry Hamer, Public works Director The minutes for the Council ' s February 13th meeting were corrected as follows : Page 7, Paragraph 2 : Reference to the President' s guidelines should have been for "70" rather than "6%" Motion by Councilman Ranallo and seconded by Councilman Letourneau to ap- prove the minutes for the February 13, 1979 Council meeting as corrected. Motion carried unanimously. Dick Klick appeared to discuss actions taken and recommendations to the Council made by the Planning Board during their February 20 , 1979 meeting as reflected in the minutes of that meeting. He reported the major action taken was regarding the- expansion plans for American Monarch, 2801 37th Avenue N.E. A recommendation of Council ap- proval of all variances necessary to the proposed 80 ' x 265 ' plant expan- sion to the west was -made subject to conditions set by the Board- to assure adequate parking and landscaping. The Board representative said because the new survey of the property had not indicated utility easement locations, one of the conditions was the investigation by staff of the reference in the legal description to such an easement. Mr. Fornell reported there is a 45 foot wide easement for a 33 inch storm sewer line which abuts the building on the east and which might prove a hindrance to the firm' s future expansion plans in that direction as detail- ed in the application for the variances from American Monarch . Duane Duerre, 2606 37th Avenue N.E. , was the only resident present to speak for or against the proposal . He said he had been unable to attend the public hearing on the expansion but his daughter had been in attendance and reported she understood that the parking on 37th Avenue would increase and the street would be posted for only American Monarch employees . Edward J. Fiore, American Monarch Manager , explained to him that the firV was only proposing employee parking on specified side streets under strict management supervision for only the period when the new parking lots are E� t LAW OFFICES a HANCE .

I would like to gain a position on the Planning Commission for many reasons, I see it as a learning experience for myself, on the functioning on our city, and I think mainly, to get more involved in our community by getting to know the people and being able to help the residents of St Anthony. I was involved with the Planning Commission a few years back, when the Elmwood Lutheran Church wanted to expand. The expansion was to take place on the back of my lot line, which I thought could present problems if the expansion was done in the manner they wished. So • I can understand so►ne of the problems that arise and the frustration that can be felt. But also the posibilities of resolving them for both sides with the help and advise from our Planning Commission. h, 3121 Edward Street N.E.

Minnesota Laws of 1987 , Chapter 295, and which we hope can be -quickly adopted by Hennepin County School Districts and- . Law Enforcement Agencies . The Memorandum has four objectives : 1 . To expand the information that school districts and law enforcement agencies can share with one another concerning drug use by juveniles; • 2 . To allow school districts to have the first opportunity to deal with drug use by students; and 3 . To use Hennepin County Juvenile Court as the back- up to the school ' s effort to deal with drug abuse on a voluntary basis . 4 . To ensure stiffer consequences for juveniles who use drugs and engage in other criminal activity. We are very grateful for all the help we have received in drafting the enclosed proposal . Many school and law eArorc`e iCe l"i: rcl_)Lesentatives a�lended meetings, shared information, and raised questions, all of which was invaluable to us . Your continued help is needed, however . Please review the enclosed Memorandum and determine whether your department can agree to its terms--I certainly hope this will be the case . If you can, please communicate your support to the school superintendent for your community and to Sonya Steven, an assistant county attorney in our office ( 348-7916 ) . We will ask you to sign the Memorandum once the Community School Advisory Team has taken supportive action. To assist in moving this process along, Sonya is available to meet with you, your officers or community representatives • to discuss the Memorandum and to answer questions . HENNEPIN COUNTY IS AN AFFIRMATIVE ACTION EMPLOYER 4 • Our goal is to gain . county-wide . approval of the Memorandum of Understanding, so that each Hennepin County law enforcement agency and school district can fully cooperate with one ' another in seeking to achieve the purposes of Chapter 295 .

RESOLUTION 87-042 �I I A RESOLUTION RECEIVING REPORT AND CALLING HEARING ON IMPROVEMENT ; WHEREAS, pursuant to motion of the Council passed July 22 , 1986 , a report has been prepared by Rieke Carroll Muller Associates , Inc . (RCM) with reference to the improvement of St. Anthony Boulevard between the Burlington Northern Bridge and the southern City limits line to reconstruct the existing roadway with a new bituminous roadway ' with new curb and gutter and replacing' existing catch basins and leads, and this report was received by the Council on January 27 , 1987 . NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA: .l . The Council will consider the improvement of such street in accordance with the report and the assessment of abutting property for all or a portion of the cost of the improve- ment pursuant to Minnesota Statutes Chapter 429 at an esti- mated total cost of the improvement of $440 , 000 . 00 . 2 . A public hearing shall be held on such proposed improvement on the 12th day of January, 1988 , in the Council Chambers of the City Hall at 8 : 00 P.M. and the Clerk shall give mailed and published notice of such hearing and improvements as required by law. Adopted this day of 1987 . Mayor ATTEST: City Clerk Reviewed for administration: City Manager Decision Resources Ltd. TO: Dave Childs, City Manager FROM: Bill Morris DATE: December 4, 1987 SUBJECT: Several Observations about the Draft . of the City Survey First , let me assure- you that the questionnaire is not too long. We have been very successful in administering even longe.r. surveys in other suburban areas. . - Having had extensive experience in product , politi.cal ,. and consumer telephone studie.s,. we have -found that quality of life surveys -are in a class- of their own. Most respondents are pleased, An fact, eager , to be contacted and . asked for their opinions about- their community. In our last two studies in. Roseville, with a s.imilar age structure to Saint • Anthony, and Cottage Grove, with a somewhat distinctive age mix , our refusal rates were minimal -- less than two percent . _ Each survey was also longer that your current draft . Again, let me assure you -'without qualification that the residents will not rebel at the length of this draft ! The survey can be conveniently broken down into several topical areas. The objective of the study is to .measure citizen satisfaction on a series of issues facing- the city : from basic . services to future plans. In ' addition, throughout the instrument , tax and assessment cost considerations have been explic-itly discussed to provide a. more rea-listic basis for evaluation. DEMOGRAPHICS. These questionn .are. -used'--to not .-.only establish a - profile of the residents, but to- permit breakdowns by various groups (e.g . , seniors, long-term- res-idents, etc . ) of the answers to other queries. Questions #1-10, #104-112. QUALITY OF LlFE .- This set measures general satisfaction with the - city and its direction. A perceived high quality of life is normally a precondition for a satisfied • citizenry . When discontent is detected in these questions, it normally revolves around a more complex policy direction (e.g . , development ) than a single municipal issue. Questions -#11-24, #63, #64 . • CITY SERVICE ` CUTS AND TAXES. - . - In an era of tight budgets and rising costs, many cities are faced with the dilemma of either increasing , taxes to maintain services or cutting selected 3128 Dean COLAI e Minneapohs, \-linnesota 55416 ® (6,1 2) 920-0337 categories. The •specificity . of the options given, citizens 'w.il l' 1.- 1' provide very useful data for future decisions. Questions CITY SERVICES. Both general satisfaction- with services, as well as specific aspects of several selected services , are obtained in this section of the study. Questions #34-42, #65, #86-88. POLICY OPTIONS. Citizens were asked their views on a set of developing issues within Saint Anthony: recycling and garbage, water , street maintenance, codes, parks and recreation, flooding , the municipal liquor stores, and fire/police services. Questions #47-54 , #61-63, #66-69, #73-79, #80-85, #89, #90, #95-99. CITY GOVERNMENT . Residents were asked about their degree of knowledge and evaluation of city government . Questions #43, #44 . CITY STAFF. Saint Anthony residents were asked to evaluate the personnel side of government service provision, both in City Hall and on the street . Questions #45, #46, #55-60, #91-94 . CITY HALL. Citizens` were asked for guidance about future municipal facilities. Questions #70-72. COMMUNICATIONS. The means and effectiveness of information dis- semination.. ' have consequences 'for the long-term integ- ration of the population. Questions .#100-103. The analysis .of the results of. this . study will not "only provide a complete p..i-cture of the current satisfaction and dissatisfaction in the city, but also unbiased data for future policy planning in a number of areas. One observation: `the order of the questions has been deliberately . " jumbled" to maintain the interest of the respondent . In all cases, though , questions which call for a top-of-the-mind conclusion from the interviewee precede closed- ended fixed response inquiries on a similar topic . I hope this memorandum satisfactorily explains the intent of the draft questionnaire. I will be happy to respond to any questions, comments, or suggestions you and the Council may have ' at the next Meeting . We are very pleased to be working with you ! DECISION RESOURCES, LTD.

Why do you feel that way? ------------------------------------------------------- There has been some discussion lately about the need to evaluate the adequacy of current city facilities. As you may know, City Offices and the Police Department are contained in the former Parkview Elementary School Building , which is still owned by the School District . Space remaining in the building is used by both • the School District and other organizations. The Fire Department is located in the Old Fire Station in the southern part of Saint 8 . Anthony , - which will require -extensive renovation in the near • future. i i There are three courses of action which the City could follow: A) Continue to rent space from the School District and modernize ' i the Old Fire Station; in other words, basically keeping everything as it is. B) Buy the Parkview Elementary School Building , remodel the facility into a Community Center , containing City Offices and the Police Department , space for community organizations, and reno- vate the building to permit the Fire Department to move into it . C ) Build a new City Center facility , separate from the Parkview j School site, to house city offices, the Police and Fire Departments, and community rooms to meet residential needs. I 70.

NOVEMBER 24 , 1 3'8 7 1 The meeting was called to order at 5 : 40 P.M. by Chair Sundland. . 2 Present- for- roll call: Sundland, Vice Chair Enrooth, Secretary/ 3 Treasurer Marks , and Commissioners Ranallo 4 and Makowske. 5 Also present: David Childs, Executive Director 6 William Soth, H.R.A. Attorney 7 Richard Krier, Development Advisory Services, 8 H.R.A. Planning Consultant 9 NOVEMBER 10 , 1987 H.R.A. MINUTES 10 Motion by Ranallo, seconded by Marks , to approve as presented. 11 Motion carried unanimously. 12 Guidance Sought, Re: Alternatives for Moving Final Phases of Kenzie WTerrace Redevelopment Project Ahead 14 Mr. Krier reported on discussions with Mr. Alan Hamel, Gaughan 15 Company President, regarding the problems his firm faced on October 16 19th when they received a dramatic raise in both the rated and 17 unrated interest rates for the Revenue Housing Bonds and bank charges 18 for backing their Letter of Credit. Mr. Krier indicated the problem, 19 as he saw it, was that the City now had a redeveloper who had the 20 capability for putting up his own Letter of Credit or getting financ- 21 ing if any one could, but for business reasons, he decided to delay 22 executing the redevelopment Agreement with the H.R.A. until he had 23 first secured either an acceptable FHA conditional commitment or 24 letter of credit backing like that being negotiated with the Des 25 Moines Midland Bank, as reported in Mr. Hamel' s November� 23rd letter 26 to the H.R.A. , distributed before the meeting. 27 Mr. Krier indicated he had to assume further financial help from the 28 City to move the project along was not an issue with the Gaughan 29 Companies, but rather , had to agree with Mr. Soth' s assessment that 30 the redevelopers had the financial strength to do the project by .31 themselves but the interest rates had gone so high the numbers no 32 longer worked for them to make a profit on the project. The Attorney 33 then suggested the City should try to get Arkell completely out of 34 the, picture by offering a settlement which, because of his present 35 situation, he might be tempted to take. • 1 Mr. Soth' pointed oat that'�'$23 , 000 , 000 had always- been more than was 2 needed when compared to• the $8 , 500 ,000 -in project costs, so the 3 $11 , 500 , 000.,. whic'h ,� remain in revenue bonds after December 1st, . should 4 certainly be..adequate to get the project done. 5 He was instructed to- teli the Gaughan Companies the H.R.A. wanted to 6 schedule meetings - with them every two weeks, starting with a meeting 7 after the Council ' s December 8th. meeting, so they could keep track 8 of their financing progress and was requesting the lines of communica- 9 tion be kept open between meetings. The planner indicated the only 10 reason the redeveloper was not present for that meeting was- because he 11 had requested they not come. He said he really believed both 12 Gaughan and Piper Jaffray, who were placing the bonds, were working 13 hard on the deal; but having the redeveloper report back every two 14 weeks might apply pressure on Piper to get the financing package put 15 together as soon as possible. 16 It was agreed that further contact with the other developer who had 17 proposed to do the project would not be completely foreclosed in the 18 meantime because the H.R.A. wanted the Gaughan Companies to understand 19 the City intends to get the project done one -way or another since 20 they have not signed the agreement as scheduled. 21 It was further agreed that the Mayor and Mr. Childs would broach Mr. 22 Arkell regarding a settlement. Mr. Arkell would be advised that the 23 H.R.A. needs the extra $300 , 000 now that the drop in prime rate had 24 created a problem with getting another redeveloper and the landowner 25 was threatening to sue the City for that failure. 26 The H.R.A. meeting was adjourned at 6: 35 P.M. with the Council meeting 27 opening at 7 : 30 P.M. , as scheduled. 28 Respectfully submitted, 29 Helen Crowe, Secretary 30 :cjk 2 • DO-RSEY & WHITNEY 2200 FIRST BANK PLACE EAST NIINNF'APOLIS, MINNESOTA 55402 (012 1 :340-2000 (Internal Revenue Account No. 41"0223337) STATENIFNT OF ACCOUNT FOR PROFESSIONAL SERVICES November 30, 1987 Mr. David NI.
