1 IX. GENERAL POLICY BUSINESS OF THE COUNCIL.
2 A. Resolution 01-062, Adopt Joint and Cooperative Agreement for Use of Law Enforcement
3 Personnel and Equipment.
4 Momson stated that this agreement was to replace the former agreement they had with Hennepin
5 County since 1968. Essentially, he stated, it is the same agreement which gives the City of St.
6 Anthony the ability to call other Hennepin County communities for mutual aid, as well as to have
7 other communities call the City of St. Anthony for.mutual aid.
8 Mayor Cavanaugh asked Mornson what he had found out with Minneapolis. Momson responded
9 that he had not heard anything yet.
10 Motion by Councilmember Thuesen to adopt Resolution 01-062, re: Adopt Joint and
11 Cooperative Agreement for Use of Law Enforcement Personnel and Equipment.
12
13 Motion carried unanimously.
14 B. Resolution 01-063, re: Waive monetM limits on tort liability.
15 Momson stated that the Resolution was one to waive tort liability limits for LMCIT (League of
016 Minnesota Cities Insurance Renewal) Insurance Program. He stated it was an annual resolution
17 done in conjunction with the insurance renewal.
18 Momson introduced Carl Bennetsen of Gallagher Insurance, who assisted them with the
19 preparation of their insurance renewal with the league, to review the Gallagher Insurance. Mr.
20 Bennetsen indicated that Minnesota statute states that, regarding tort liability, the limits remain
21 $300,000 per an acclaimment, and$1,000,000 per an occurrence, which applies to Minnesota
22 statutes only.
23 Mr. Bennetsen stated that the City if St. Anthony has decided to waive the $300,000 per an
24 acclaimment limit up to the limits of the City's coverage. He indicated that the thought process
25 behind that decision was that, should a member of the community have an injury due to
26 negligence on behalf of the city which would require ongoing treatment, it is expected that
27 person would be a good citizen, by which the City would be able to apply up to $1,000,000
28 limits per that injured party. He stated that the opposite point of view is that, if there were more
29 than one person injured, the City does not have that$300,000 limit.
30 Councilmember Sparks asked how it would work if there were four, or five people injured. Mr.
31 Bennetsen stated that the $1,000,000 would be divided between whoever would receive an award
32 under the policy. He stated that under the$300,000 policy, there would be$300,000 per
33 acclaimment, and up to$1,000,000 per occurrence.
�34 Mayor Cavanaugh asked what the cost difference was in the insurance, if they chose to not waive
35 the $300,000 per acclaimment. Mr. Bennetsen stated that the difference was about$2,500.

1 Mayor Cavanaugh asked how many other cities waive this policy. Mr. Bennetsen said it was
2 about 50%.
3 Mr. Bennetsen indicated*this is the second.year that the City:of St. Anthony has waived the
4 policy. Mornson added that the League has just provided them with the opportunity for more
5 coverage, which is why they have the ability to waive the policy.
6 Councilmember Sparks asked Mornson what he recommended. Mornson stated that he was in
7 favor of waiving the policy so that if any members of the community had a legitimate claim, they
8 would get the greatest amount of money that they possibly could. He added that it also provided
9 the City of St. Anthony with more protection at a very modest cost.
10 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that his only concern was that they were waiving a state statute. Mr.
11 Bennetsen stated that the way the policy is drafted;-and the way the Resolution is drafted, it states
12 up to the limits of the policy is how much it is waived.
13 Mornson stated that the City Attorney recommended that they go with the higher limits last year.
14 Motion by Horst to adopt Resolution 01-063, re: Waive monetary limits on tort liability.
�15 Motion carried unanimously...
16 C. Resolution 01-064, re: Approve City's insurance coverage for June 1, 2001 through_May
17 31, 2001.
18 Councilmember Sparks asked if the $23,000 for the on-sale/off-sale liquor liability is actually
19 incorporated into the liquor operations on page 34, or is it found somewhere else. Mornson
20 stated that it was included.
21 Councilmember Thuesen asked about the difference in the premiums between SAV's 1 and 2.
22 Christopher Skelton, from sunrise Park Insurance Agency, stated that part of the reason for the
23 increase was due to an additional claim on the liquor liability that was reported during the prior
24 policy period. He added that the their was also a minor increase in premium, which is standard.
25 Motion by Mayor Cavanaugh to approve Resolution 01-064, re: Approve City's insurance
26 coverage for June 1, 2001 through May 31, 2002.
27 Motion carried unanimously.
28 X. REPORTS FROM COMMISSIONS AND STAFF.
29 A. Planning Commission -May 15, 2001.
30 Planning Commissioner Tillmann indicated that she was present to discuss the ordinance change
31 that would allow electronic signs for public use only, on.recreational, and open-space land. She
�32 indicated that the proposal for the ordinance change was an interim step, as part of a larger
33 project to review the entire sign ordinance.

1 Mayor Cavanaugh asked for some of the electronic capabilities of an electronic sign.
2 Commissioner Tillmann responded that the sign they are talking about would have a reader board
3 with a message in lights.,controlled by an off-site computer.
4 Councilmember Sparks asked if there would be a requirement that it would not flash, or change
5 frequently. Commissioner Tillmann indicated that there would be limitations and requirements.
6 Councilmember Horst said that the sign sounded similar to the Salvation Army property.
7 Commissioner Tillmann indicated that they have mentioned that possibility.
8 Councilmember Thuesen expressed his concern with going too broad with the ordinance.
9 Commissioner Tillmann indicated that their hope is to keep it very limited.
10 Mayor Cavanaugh asked if they would be gutting the sign this year. Mornson indicated that
11 he was uncertain with the expectations of the Planning Commission regarding the design of the
12 sign. Commissioner Tillmann indicated that they were hoping to get the designer who was
13 working with the City Hall Committee to help them with the drawing, so that the public could
14 see what they are talking about.
15 Mornson indicated that funding was an issue, as there was not money in the budget for this.
Mornson stated that the Planning Commission has to determine the definition of open
016 g p
17 recreational space. Commissioner Tillmann said that they still needed to determine the definition
18 of public use.
19 Mornson indicated that the earliest it would be approved would be the last meeting in July.
20 Mayor Cavanaugh stated it would be nice to get some estimates on cost. Momson responded
21 that some companies would design a sign free of charge.
22 Councilmember Sparks stated that the consultant had come up with some proposals with the City
23 Hall Building, and to, at least, use the same brick as that building.
24 The Council thanked Commissioner Tillmann for the update.
25 XI. REPORTS FROM CITY MANAGER AND COUNCILMEMBERS.

27 had signed up for the AMM meeting on Thursday.

8 . V. BUDGET WORK SESSION ON.FINANCIAL STRATEGIES -Jim Prosser,Ehlers'and
19 Associates will be present.
20 Mike Mornson explained that developing a blueprint for the City's financial strategies was very
21 important, and introduced Jim Prosser to discuss the Financial Strategy and Process with the
22 Council.
23 Jim Prosser introduced Liz Diaz, a colleague of his from Ehlers and Associates. He distributed a
24 booklet to each Councilmember, which would assist him in walking the Council through the Key
25 Financial Strategies. Mr. Prosser stated that descriptions of the financial foundations and other
26 issues surrounding the project were contained in this booklet, identifying it as a key tool in the
27 process.
28 Mr. Prosser explained that the items that he,would be discussing would be largely familiar to the
29 Council, with only a couple of new concepts. He stated that the Council needed to inform him of
30 anything that needed to be further explained, or initially considered, as he went along.
31 Mr. Prosser stated that one of the things that the Councilmembers needed to leave with tonight
32 was the ability to absorb the objectives of the Key Financial Strategies in order to be able to
33 communicate with the community regarding the project and respond to them regarding the things
34 that they identify in the community as priorities, as well as be comfortable in using the material
35 in the future meetings which will follow.
0 3 6 Mr. Prosser reviewed the Key Financial Strategies Objectives:
7 1. Confirm and prioritize community goals.
38 2. Review your community's current financial position.
City Council Study Session Meeting Minutes
June 12, 2001

1 3. Develop an inventory of capital needs beyond traditional Capital Improvement Plans.
2 4. Identify future capital funding requirements and operating needs.
3 5. Develop an inventory of financial resources.
4 6. Present options for financing needs.
5 7. Analyze the financial impact of each option.
6 8. Prepare an affordable, comprehensive financial plan.
7 9. Develop a framework to review future capital projects.
8 Councilmember Horst asked about prioritizing goals, and said that they are constantly changing.
9 Mr. Prosser indicated that the process really forces discussion of the goals on, at least an annual
10 basis, which will force them to maintain a focus, and continue to think of the process as the
11 dynamic, and on-going procedure that it is.
12 Mr. Prosser stated that every city has more needs and more potential discussion items than they
13 have time, or money. He added that it is important to forecast those needs and get them in a
14 plan, or.program so that there is some institutional memory in what the intend to accomplish
15 throughout this process.
16 Mr. Prosser went on to highlight the Key Financial Strategy Products:
17, 1. Five Year KFS spreadsheet with capital and operating projections.
08 2. Customized strategies and timetables including development of financial policies,
19 revenue strategies, debt management and refined capital and operating plans.
20 Mr. Prosser stated that the key in this entire process is the strategies and timetables.
21 Councilmember Horst mentioned other cities, and that they did not have any sort of plan like this
22 in place. Mr. Prosser responded that few cities.have a plan like this in place because of time, and
23 that the state legislative process puts an emphasis on inputs (i.e. taxes) with regard to budgeting.
24 He added that there is not a real focus on outcomes with the legislatures, and encouraged that the
25 Council take time to sit down and discuss the outcomes with the legislatures at the end of this
26 process.
27 Councilmember Thuesen asked about community surveys and do they want to consider them as
28 an option. Councilmember Sparks mentioned that intergenerational dialogue was a potential tool
29 as a way of gauging what residents value. Mr. Prosser stated that a survey would help the
30 Council to identify what the educational needs are by way of educating the public in terms of
31 choices.
32 Mr. Prosser added that this whole process is all about choices. He noted that the survey could
33 come into play early, or later in the process, and it will be the decision of the Council to
34. determine when it would be incorporated into the process.
5 Mr. Prosser continued by reviewing the General Guidelines of the Process. He added the need to
36 allow a focus on the primary objectives of the community. He stated that the both operational
37 and capital needs must be considered.

1 Mr. Prosser stated that a common mistake in other communities regarding Financial Strategies is
2 when they take financial jumps, rather than building over time. He stated that the Council would
3 be wise to determine which outcomes they intend to achieve.
4 Mr. Prosser warned the Council not to expect to finish this process and have a perfect plan, and
5 indicated that it would take three to five years to feel comfortable with the plan.
6 Mr. Prosser stated it was the responsibility of the Council to determine the true hot topics within
7 the community, and to look at them subjectively.
8 Mr. Prosser continued by reviewing the Key Financial Strategies Process Outline, which was
9 broken down into four sessions. He informed the Council that it is a very intuitive process,
10 which is easier to describe than it is to process.
11 Mr. Prosser indicated that the mistake that the Council could make with the Financial Strategy is
12 to think that everything is contained within the binder that he had distributed to them, rather than
13 realizing that the community will provide many more issues than what is found on those pages.
14 Councilmember Horst stated that an issue for him was TIF financing for the future, particularly
15. the extensive work that may be planned for the Northwest.Quadrant, and the possibility of
6 running out of money and needing public financing to bailout the project. Mr. Prosser stated
17 that was dust the sort of thing that the session tonight is intended for, to bring up issues that need
18 to be addressed as part of this process.
19 Councilmember Thuesen stated that a hope of his was to establish what will be done with the
20 capital buildings, and the ways in which that will be accomplished.
21 Councilmember Horst stated it was important to him that the community becomes more
22 aesthetically appealing. Councilmember Hodson agreed, and indicated that the sidewalks were a
23 major concern.
24 Mayor Cavanaugh stated he has a concern with tax capacity and how that capacity plays out for
25 the operating expenses. He suggested that they build in a sense of capital reserve to the general
26 fund budget,rather than leave that to be determined at the end of the year. He suggested a
27 $250,000 figure for capital reserve.
28 Councilmember Sparks referred to the goals and action steps that the Council comprised earlier .
29 in the year and expressed her hope that they be incorporated into the Strategy that was being
30 presented tonight.
31 Mr. Prosser highlighted the Comparative Analysis of Housing Data,Five-year Revenue.
2 Summary, Five-year Expenditure Summary, and Revenues,Expenditures and Fund Balance. He
3 indicated that the important piece in all of those things is to use them as an appropriate way to
34 "pay as you go", and to learn from history and incorporate it into the future.

1 Mr. Prosser stated the need for a certain amount of income to be available, because the cash will
2 not be metered out as it has been in the past. He stated that the Council needed to be careful to
3 maintain a Fund Balance. He.stated that, if the tax'structure is changed, the ramifications can not
4 be determined until the changes nun a full cycle (a year, or mote).
5 While referring to the Key Financial Strategies Comparative Data, Mr. Prosser indicated that
6 they would like to see the City of St. Anthony get more commercial as a city to balance out the
7 Ratio of Total Net Tax Capacity Value, yet development needs to be tailored to the needs of the
8 community. Mr. Prosser added that, in general, balance is better than in-balance.
9 Mr. Prosser compared the 1995 Revenues to the 1999 Revenues, and the 1995 Expenditures to
10 the 1999 Expenditures. He highlighted Improvement Costs, as a significant difference in
11 expenditures from 1995 to 1999.
12 Mr. Prosser stated that it is really easy for a city to function, while forgetting about the Public
13 Works building, the City Hall,etc. by not putting money into them, and that they eventually need
14 attention, which can be an unforeseen problem.
15 Mr. Prosser highlighted the KFS Initial Findings that included an aging infrastructure, unmet city
6 facility, and a stable growing tax base. He.added that one of the key issues for the Council
7 would be how to prioritize things, as they do not have a lot of initial money. He added that they
18 are not digging themselves out of a very big hole, fortunately.
19 Mayor Cavanaugh thanked Mr. Prosser for coming.
20 Mike Morrison stated that the next meeting to discuss the process would be October 9, 2001, and
21 indicated that it was important for all five Councilmembers be present. Mr. Prosser indicated
22 that he would provide the Council with information for that meeting at least a week ahead of
23 time.
24 VI. DISCUSS STONEHOUSE PROPERTY-Jim Prosser,Ehlers and Associates will be
25 present.
26 Mike Morrison stated that tonight would be an informational discussion with the Council on the
27 Stonehouse, and indicated that Liquor Operations.Manager, Mike Larson, was present.
28 Morrison indicated that developing a plan, or options for the Stonehouse property was identified
29 as Goal #2 for the City at their annual Goal Setting Retreat in 2001. He stated that this has been
30 concern of the city since 1990, because of the declining income from the operation of the
31 Stonehouse, as well as increasing building costs.
32 Morrison paraphrased what he perceived to be the City Council's position on the Stonehouse as,
3 "continue keeping the operation open and seek ways to improve the operation, but do not spend a
4 lot of the City's money on the operation because of declining profits and increasing building
35 needs."
City Council Study Session Meeting Minutes 10
June 12, 2001
Page 5
1 Momson wanted to review some of the operational information and a list of possible decisions,
2 issues, or concerns of which the Council needs to be aware.
3 Morrison highlighted a letter that he had received from Hennepin County that provided the City
4 with an appraisal of the property, stating the estimated value in the range between $500,000 and
5 $550,000.
6 Morrison provided the Council with a Stonehouse Staff Snapshot, which indicated that the
7 Stonehouse maintains a staff level of twenty to twenty-five employees.
8 Momson illustrated that the Stonehouse makes money because of the charitable gambling, by
9 using a comparison between a Five-year Financial History for the Stonehouse Bar and Grill and a
10 Five-year Financial History, Profit from Operations.
11 Momson showed that the Stonehouse Net Profits were significant to the City's General Fund in
12 1988, 1989 and 1990. He indicated that a review of City Council Meeting Minutes from years
13 past showed that the Council first became concerned with the Stonehouse in 1991 when the
14 profits dropped from$255,407 in 1990 to $176,135 in 1991.
5 Councilmember Sparks asked what happened after 1990 to,cause such change. Momson
6 indicated that the liquor laws changed, and competition increased in the Sports Bar Market, with
17 Champps, Applebee's, Joe Sensor's,etc. Mike Larson added that the Unysis building, and
18 buildings back in that area went through an extraordinary layoff process, and those employees
19 used to gather at the Stonehouse after work a lot.
20 Mayor Cavanaugh asked what happened to the Stonehouse profits from 1998 until now. Mike
21 Larson indicated that problems with equipment and building maintenance were the reason for the
22 profit decrease.
23 Morrison stated that this past year they had hired SEH to do an architectural Building Analysis of
24 the entire facility. The summary indicated that the entire building has outlived it's useful life,
25 and they recommended building new.
26- Mornson highlighted the Estimated Cost of Repairs and Improvements, which totaled$681, 750.
27 Morrison reviewed the Split Liquor Explanation which consisted of redeveloping the corner,
28 getting out of the on-sale liquor business, and staying in the off-sale operation because it was
29 making over$200,000 a year. He stated they would issue liquor licenses to certain restaurants to
30 come into the community. Morrison indicated that a referendum would be needed, unless they
31 got out of both the off-sale operation and the on-sale liquor operation. He indicated that they see
32 the City as heading in the direction of Split Liquor Explanation.
3 Councilmember Horst asked if other liquor stores could come in and control the off-sale of
34 liquor. Morrison stated that they could not do so under the Split Liquor Explanation.
City Council Study Session Meeting Minutes 11
June 12, 2001
Page 6
1 Mornson stated that a community survey would be helpful in determining if the residents like the
2 fact that the City owns an on-sale restaurant.
.3 Mornson mentioned building a new store, and having someone else operate it.. He indicated that
4 it could not be done at this time. He stated that under the Operation of a municipal liquor store, a
5 city may not contract with a private corporation for the management and operation of a
6 municipal liquor store.
7 Mayor Cavanaugh asked Mr. Prosser what they should do, from a business perspective. Mr.
8 Prosser stated that it is a complicated issue. He indicated that they would like to come up with a
9 proposal that looks at the Stonehouse, and other buildings in the area where they would like to
10 see redevelopment take place.
11 He indicated that, essentially, there were three decisions to make:
12 1. Redeveloping the area.
13 2. Redeveloping the area with, or without a liquor store.
14 3. Redeveloping the area with, or without a restaurant selling liquor.
15 Mr. Prosser stated that, for comparative purposes, they would do a straight financial analysis,
16 comparing what they think the establishment would be expected to produce on an annual basis
jp17 from that type of operation to the value of the sale of the land. .
18 Mayor Cavanaugh asked about the point in which the business decision would be to shut it down.
19 Mr. Prosser indicated that an analysis factoring that option in would not be as accurate, but could
20 be done in order to revisit it later on. He stated that he did not have a comfort level that it would
21 be really clear, or not.
22 Councilmember Sparks asked how they would factor in the Sports Boosters in the whole process.
23 Mr. Prosser indicated that he could not answer that, but that it was a largely political decision.
24 Councilmember Hodson asked if they could re-construct part of the building without affecting
25 the Fire House. Mayor Cavanaugh stated that the Stonehouse is a short-term issue of cash flow,
26 and,when they start putting capital into it, and realize that they are not going to recover it, what
27 are the alternatives to putting the capital into it. He added that the Sports Boosters create a
28 unique obligation for the Council to try and keep their funding source.
29 Councilmember Horst stated that he would like to see what potential offers they have received on
30 the property, so that they can have a true idea of what their options are.
31 Councilmember Thuesen stated that he would like to see figures and a plan for the Fire Station, if
32 it is unable to be salvaged from the Stonehouse Property. Mayor Cavanaugh stated that he would
33 like to focus solely on the Stonehouse. Mayor Cavanaugh stated that the Stonehouse will
34 someday need$100,000 of capital money, and wanted to know what the Council would decide at
35 that point.

1 Councilmember Thuesen asked Mr. Prosser if they could get some type of tax figures
2 surrounding the Stonehouse property, and the different options that have been suggested. Mr.
3 Prosser stated that was very possible to do so:
4 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that a Rate of Return Analysis would need to stand up to the universal
5 model, in order to give them a sense of what needs to be produced, and if the current structure
6 can remain.
7 A member of the audience asked if there would need to be a hypothetical idea, in order to
8 promote this idea to other establishments, such as Applebee's, or Champps, and what type of
9 profit or revenue would need to be present. Mr. Prosser said they could address that.
10 Mr. Prosser stated that they could have something prepared for the Council within sixty days
11 now that he has a better idea of what the Council is looking for. He indicated that they would
12 defer to an outside source to determine some of the figures that have been requested.
13 Mayor Cavanaugh thanked Mr. Prosser for his time.
14 Mayor Cavanaugh called for a three-minute recess.
15 Morrison concluded his presentation by stating that the on-sale operation of the property was
16 making money this year, and that they are in a much better financial position today, than they
17 were back in 1995.
18 John Fabian, the Administrator and Vice President for the Sports Boosters,came forward and
19 explained that his primary role is to oversee the charitable gambling at the Stonehouse. He stated
20 he would be happy to provide any figures regarding the charitable gambling for the Council, and
21 added that he wanted to continue to act as partners with the Council. Mr. Fabian stated that the
22 Sports Boosters does have a license for Charitable Gambling.
23 Mr. Fabian stated that Charitable Gambling formed in 1989, and since that time they have
24 donated an excess of $2,300,000 to the community. Mr. Fabian stated that, since April of 1999,
'25. they have dispersed an excess of$230,000. From that money,.he indicated that the Sports
26 Boosters received$60,000 to run their programs.
27 Mr. Fabian added that it is not only the Sports Boosters that benefit from the charitable
28 gambling, but the school district and the community at large, as well.
29 Councilmember Sparks asked for some example of how the charitable gambling has contributed
30 to the community. Mr. Fabian identified numerous examples. Among those examples was
31 computer equipment, band equipment,Villagefest Organization, Senior Overnight Committee,
2 wrestling and swimming equipment, and community concerts.
33 Councilmember Thuesen stated that there is no argument that charitable gambling has
34 contributed significant funds to the community. However, he wondered if there may come a
City Council Study Session Meeting Minutes 13
June 12, 2001
Page 8
1 point that, in order to keep charitable gambling, they may need to keep a business that is not
2 profitable, and does that make any sense.
3 Sports.Booster and Baseball Commissioner, George Zurbey, agreed with Councilmember
4 Thuesen. He stated that some of the issues that are considered Sports Booster issues really are
5 community and tax-payer issues, and that they need to be considered as such.
6 Councilmember Horst asked why some of the things that are connected to the Sports Boosters
7 would dry up, if they were to lose the Charitable Gambling. Mr. Fabian referred to the
8 increasing popularity of sports, and the increasing demands that are placed on the volunteers.
9 Mayor Cavanaugh asked if the $60,000 is the only money that the Sports Boosters are receiving
10 over the course of a year from charitable gambling; Mr. Fabian stated that they also receive
11 money from registration fees. >
12 Mr. Zurbey stated that the in-house cost per child for the baseball team in the City of St. Anthony
13 was $55.00 compared to $180.00 per child in Roseville. Thus, illustrating the benefit of the
14 funding that Sports Boosters, and in turn the community, receive from charitable gambling.
015 Mr. Zurbey stated that his purpose of.being there tonight was,not to argue that the Stonehouse
16 stay open, but to show what the profits of Charitable Gambling do for various organizations
17 within the community.
18 Mr. Fabian stated that he realizes the difficult position that the Council is in with regard to the
19 Stonehouse, and that he hoped that it would continue to be a cooperative effort between the
20 Sports Boosters and the Council.
21 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that it is a difficult business decision for them, and that in two months
22 they will have better information from which to make some decisions.
23 Councilmember Hodson asked Mr. Larson if there was any information on any partners that the
24 Sports Boosters could work with. Mr. Larson stated that he has been receiving weekly a-mails
25 from the Executive Director of the Minnesota License Beverage Association and said that there
26 have not been any interested parties yet.
27 Councilmember Horst asked if there were any other franchises, such as Champps, that would
28 allow for some sort of charitable gambling. Mornson indicated that there are certain franchises
29 that permit Charitable Gambling, and that part of a negotiating package should allow room for
30 some sort of Charitable Gambling.
31 Mr. Larson stated that gross sales in 2000 for the Stonehouse were $1,875,000.
32 Mr. Zurbey stated that the community needed to determine what type of restaurant they wanted
33 to have in the City of St. Anthony.

9 Mayor Cavanaugh asked what Ms. Kapsch had won. She indicated that she won the Builder's
10 Club International Orrhetorical Contest and that the prize was a trip to Washington, D.C., where

1 Gehrz, who conducted the last intergenerational meeting for them a few years ago.
2 Councilmember Sparks indicated that the Council needed to determine what kind of information
3 they wanted to gather at the Dialogue,,and the types of questions that'would help them best
4 achieve those answers.
5
6 Momson asked if there was any role that the staff were expected to play. Councilmember Sparks
7 indicated there was no formal role.
8
9 Councilmember Thuesen said that he would like to see what the objectives would be for the
10 Intergenerational Dialogue, in order to see if the City should financially support it.
11 Councilmember Sparks referred to a newspaper article that stated that Intergenerational Dialogue
12 is a way to accomplish increased community connectedness.
13 Councilmember Thuesen stated that increased community connectedness was not a significant
14 enough objective to him. Councilmember Sparks stated she thought it was a very important role
15 for the City to take on.
16 Mayor Cavanaugh stated that he was uncertain of what the product would be from an
17 Intergenerational Dialogue session. He suggested that they spend some time with Mr. Prosser
18 and Ms. Gehrz in order to determine what they are looking for the community to decide, or
19 accomplish.
20 Councilmember Sparks pointed out to Councilmember Thuesen that he, along with the rest of the
21 Council, adopted a goal to build a sense of community by involving the City's diverse groups in
22 the on-going development of the City. She added that the Intergenerational Dialogue was one
23 way to accomplish that. Councilmember Thuesen responded that things do not always stay the
24 same, and that there was no formal voting on the adoption of the City's Goal, and that the City
25 needs to review these goals over time.
26 Councilmember Sparks reviewed the six Action Steps under the Goal for the City of St. Anthony
27 that had been established by the Council back in January of 2001.
28 Mayor Cavanaugh suggested that they progress the goal, and add Mr. Prosser to the equation.
29 Councilmember Sparks suggested that they call the meeting a Town Meeting, and that they
30 determine what they would like to garner from the meeting.

C. City of New Brighton
d. City of Roseville
e. City of St. Anthony
f. Hennepin County
g. Metropolitan Council
h. Minnesota Department of Health
i. Minnesota Department of Natural Resources
j. Minnesota Pollution Control Agency
k. Ramsey County
1. United States Geological Survey
After all background information has been assembled and analyzed,WSB will summarize
it and meet with City and Minnesota Department of Health(MDH)staff to finalize the
project approach based on the available information._ The remaining tasks-will be
discussed with MDH staff to determine the level of detail required for the City to
complete Part 1 of the Wellhead Protection Plan. The cost to complete Task 1 as outlined
above is anticipated to be$4,500. A budget will be prepared.for completion of Tasks H-
IV, and will be dependent on the outcome of the meeting with MDH. The potential scope
of remaining tasks is provided below.
H. Delineate Wellhead Protection Area(WHPA)
A. Method Scoping. The initial step in delineation of the WHPA will be to assess
. available geologic and hydrogeologic data to ascertain the level of effort required
31
to meet the wellhead rules for WHPA delineation. Minnesota wellhead rules
require evaluation and consideration of the following criteria:
1. time-of-travel
2. flow boundaries
3. dailyvolume .
4. groundwater flow field
5. aquifer transmissivity
After evaluating the criteria, and in conjunction with the City of St. Anthony staff,
WSB will identify the delineation approach that best serves the needs of the
public water supply system and meets the rule requirements.
B. Pre-Delineation Meeting. After completion of the method scoping,WSB will
meet with the City of St. Anthony staff and MDH staff to discuss the delineation
criteria, the conceptual model, and the WHPA delineation method.
C. Delineate the WHPA. WSB will delineate the WHPA using the selected method
for each of the following.wells:
1. Well#3,unique number 200804
2. Well#4,unique number 200803
3. Well#5,unique number 200524
A time-of-travel of 10 years will be used to determine the final WHPA boundary,
and 1-year as well as 5-year time-of-travel zones will be shown on maps in the
project deliverables.
D. Delineate the Drinking Water Supply Management Area(DWSMA). WSB will
work with MDH to delineate the DWSMA using the boundary definitions
contained in the wellhead protection rules (MR 4720.5 100, subp. 13)
E. Draft cooperative agreements. WSB will work with municipalities within the
DWSMA to draft cooperative agreements regarding the DWSMA.
III. Conduct Vulnerability Assessment
A. Vulnerability Assessments. WSB will conduct vulnerability assessments in
accordance with wellhead protection rules (MR 4720.5210)for each well in the
area of the DWSMAs delineated for the City. WSB will review the vulnerability
assessment conducted by MDH to phase the well into the Wellhead Protection
(WHP)program to.determine whether it should be revised. Data collected for the
WHPA will be used to prepare an aquifer vulnerability assessment of the entire
DWSMA.
IV. Delineation/Vulnerability Reporting/Deliverables
A. Draft Report. WSB will prepare and submit to MDH a draft report to satisfy the
wellhead protection reporting requirements for WHPA delineations and
vulnerability assessments. The draft report will provide sufficient documentation
to meet wellhead protection rule (MIZ 4720.5330)requirements for the WBPA
delineation and vulnerability assessment.
1. Draft Report. The draft report will describe the data elements considered
in conducting the delineations and assessments, and the technical approach
32
used to make the analysis. The draft report will describe for each of the
wells the following:
a. hydrogeologic setting used to characterize the aquifer
b. the five identified delineation criteria
C. the delineation method used
d. the'delineation results
e. data collected and used other than those provided by MDH
f. a copy of the calculations performed (when a computer model is
used, solution files and electronic data input will be provided)
2. DWSMA Vulnerability. Documentation of the vulnerability of the
DWSMA will:
a. identify the method used
b. describe the geologic conditions throughout the DWSMA, from the
land surface to the aquifer
C. contain the data elements collected and used
d. contain the maps, diagrams, reports, studies, and tables used to
prepare the DWSMA vulnerability assessment
3. Geographic Information. WSB will present geographic information in
electronic format using ARCANFO and/or ARCVIEW formats.
B. Final Report. WSB will update the draft report in response to comments made by
the City and MDH staff. WSB will provide 10 copies of the final report.
C. Project Work Products
1. Model Input.Sets. The modeling input files, as revised to meet the terms
of this project and the wellhead protection rules of MDH,will be a key
component of the project deliverables.
2. Supporting Data Files. Project-specific data files that define aquifer
geometry/hydraulic characteristics and from which model input files are
created will be presented digitally in an ARCWO and/or ARCVIEW
format, and in the form of:
a. polygons (e.g., representing zones of like hydraulic conductivity,
unit base elevation, recharge values, etc.)
b. lines (e.g., defimi.ng locations of various hydraulic boundary
conditions)
c. point data(e.g., wells)
Metadata annotation will accompany these files and will contain the
following:
(1) description of feature being documented(e.g., stream
location and elevation, bedrock elevation, etc.)
(2) data source(e.g., USGS quad sheets,MGS bedrock
geology GIS cover, etc.)
(3) date of the source(s)
(4) areas where the model input differs from referenced
source(s)
F:\WPWIN\0065-01\w1hd prop.wpd

3. Wellhead Protection Area Delineations. The 10-year time-of-travel
WHPA delineations will be delivered such that a minimum of 20
streamline traces are defined(using x, y, z, time, line id, and well unique
number data attributes)in an ARCVIEW/ARC/INFO compatible
electronic file format.
V. Meetings
A series of formal and informal meetings are expected during the course of this
project. WSB anticipates a minimum of four meetings with NMH staff.
Informational meetings with City of St. Anthony staff will be necessary while the
project is active, and WSB anticipates that these meetings will be necessary
approximately once every four to six weeks.

MEMORANDUM

TO: Michael Mornson, City Manager
FROM: Jay Hartman,Public Works Director
ITEM: ROOF ON MAIN IRON FILTRATION PLANT
With the recent large rain events, the main water filtration plant has been experiencing a large
amount of roof damage.The original building and roof were constructed in about 1950. I am not
aware of any re-roofing since that time. Sections of the roof have been "patched" or repaired in
the last 20 years.
I have recently contacted two roofing companies. It was determined that largely due to the age
and condition of the existing roof, patching and/or repairing will not do much to improve our
roof problems. Replacing or re-roofing is basically the only option at this time.
It is my recommendation that we use the services of SEH to provide a performance specification
and roof design plan for the replacement of the entire roof area. SEH has provided me with two
options and their scope of services and cost associated with this project.
The funding source to complete this project would-be the water filtration fund. Please let me
know if you have any questions regarding this building repair.

Dear Mr.Mornson and Mr. Hartman:
SEH is pleased to submit a proposal for re-roof design services at the above referenced project site.
It is our understanding that the total area of existing built-up roofing scheduled for replacement is
approximately 5,000 square feet, including a 300 square foot portion of sloped roof above a row of
clerestory windows.
Based on previous experience, it is our preliminary opinion that re-roofing construction costs for a
project of this type would be in the range of $9 --$10 per square foot. At this price, the total
construction costs for this project would be approximately $45,00Q- $50,000, which is right at the
maximum limit that requires public advertisement and bidding as required by State law.
Due to the possibility that advertisement and bidding may not be required, we propose two scopes
of services as follows:
Option #1: SEH will produce a set of performance specifications with a general roof plan
(11X17 drawing) for the purposes of distributing to and negotiating with invited bidders. No
roofing details will be included. The City of St. Anthony will be responsible for contacting
bidders, receiving bids, and construction administration activities. The total cost for this option
shall be performed for a total lump sum of$2,000.00.
Bidding Phase: If desired by the City of St. Anthony, SEH will be available for bidding
services, including contacting prospective bidders, receiving bids, assistance with contractor
evaluation, and conducting a pre-construction meeting. The fees for these services shall be
based on a time and material basis and are not expected to exceed$1,500.00.
Construction Phase: Additionally, SEH will be available to perform construction
administration services (periodic field inspection, review pay requests, final inspection and
project closeout) if desired. Refer to description of construction administration services
described in Option #2 below. The fees for these services shall be based on a time and
material basis.
Option #2: SEH will perform full design services as required for public advertisement of bids
. as follows:
Short Elliott Hendrickson Inc. Your Trusted Resource Equal Opportunity Employer

Michael Mornson
June 6, 2001
. Page 2
Design Phase: Services include preparation of bidding requirements (specification front-
end),construction plans, and technical specifications.
Bidding Phase:. Services include issuing of addenda during bidding period, assistance with
contractor evaluation, assistance with bid negotiation, and assistance with Owner-Contractor
agreement.
Pre-Construction Phase: Services include conducting a pre-construction conference with the
selected contractor and Owner's representative.
The total cost for performing the design services listed above shall be performed for a fee
not to exceed$5,000.00.
Construction Phase: Our inspection, project management, and construction administration
services will include the following:
Field Inspection: Performing periodic field inspection (estimated time of 10 hours per
week)including verification of materials used and workmanship evaluation.
Review pay requests
Perform miscellaneous construction administration
Project Close-Out: Performing final inspection, review of warranty information, and
project closeout.
The estimated fee to perform the inspection and construction administration and project
management services shall be based on a time and material basis. The estimated fee is
$2,200.00 per week of construction. The inspection and construction administration
phase is dependent upon the production of the contractor, complexity of the project, and
weather conditions
We appreciate the opportunity to present this proposal for professional design and construction
administration services. Please call me at 651.490.2088 if you have any questions or require
additional information.
Sincerely,

This report summaries the findings of our Physical Needs Assessments of your City's facilities. The Q
purpose of the Assessments is to evaluate the existing condition of Saint Anthony's facilities and-make k
re commendations.for current and future improvements. The Assessments will.serve as a guide for an
improvement plan and provide estimated costs associated with the,improvements.
i
• Scone of the Work
This Physical Needs Assessment involves nine recently surveyed individual buildings,the Space _
Needs Study for the Public Works Department,and the recently built City Hall and SAV 2.
T
m'
• Summary of Findings n
The facilities included in this report can be fit into four groupings according to their improvement
needs. The following is a summary of recommended actions for these four groupings with respect to r
future capital improvement budgetary planning. Further details of the findings and recommendations
are found in Sections III through V of this report:
• Liquor Operations Building SAV 2 GAC Plant,and C)i tv Hall:
• These facilities are the newest buildings within the city. The buildings are functioning
relatively well. Aside from any immediate improvement needs,it is recommended that
sufficient money be dedicated to sustaining the buildings'useful lives through a normal
operations and maintenance budget.
• Costs: Costs will vary based on specific needs for each building.
• Booster Station,Well Houses:and Water Filtration Planf:
• Because of the relative age and condition of,these buildings,a more long term approach to Q
budgetary planning is needed. The need for these facilities is to extend the life expectancy of
the buildings for at least another 50 years. Provided the technology or equipment that these y
buildings house does not significantly change in the future,these buildings will continue to.
fulfill their purpose with appropriate improvements.
• Costs: See Section V for Specific Iona term recommendations for each of these buildings.
• Fire Station#1 and Public Works:
• We recommend new construction for both of these facilities. These facilities are in need of
additional,more functional space for the sake of the equipment housed within,ADA
accessibility,and safe and healthy working conditions. Major remodeling improvements
would not be cost effective due to the relative age and condition of each facility and the costs
of regulatory requirement upgrades.
• Costs: Fire Station#1: $1.7 million; Public Works: $4.8 to$5.3 million.
• Liquor Operations Building SAV 1 and Stonehouse: ;c
• Even without assigning a specific use to these buildings,we do not recommend any major 'Cr Z.
remodeling for these facilities.A major remodeling of buildings of this age and condition
would likely be very costly due to all the unforseen conditions and regulatory upgrades
required to make this a safe and functional facility. We recommend that minimal resources be
dedicated to the upkeep of SAV 1 and the Stonehouse.
i
• Costs:.Up to$50,000

TO: Mayor and Councilmembers
FROM: Susan Henry, Assistant City Manager
ITEM: ORDINANCE ON ELECTRONIC SIGNS
The attached Ordinance 2001-002 regarding electronic signs was considered by the Planning
Commission on June 19, 2001. They recommended approval of the ordinance, but suggested
major changes in the wording. Planning Commissioner Bill Thomas will be present for
discussion and questions. In essence, the Commissioners requested wording similar to the
following:
"Amend the City Ordinance to allow for electronic signs, set by conditional use permit, in areas
zoned recreational/open space on City and/or School-owned property, for public informational
purposes. The conditional use permit will include criteria related to safety and aesthetics, i.e.,
illumination, hours of operation, changing colors, size."

DATE: 6/13/01 MEETING DATE: 06/19/01
TO: Planning Commission Members
FROM: Susan.Henry, Assistant City Manager
RE: City Ordinance Amendment
With the City wishing to communicate better and more efficiently, one step in the process is
establishing an electronic reader board in the community.To accomplish this, an ordinance change
is necessary, as electronic signs/reader boards are not currently permitted in the City:
Staff is recommending an ordinance amendment to allow for electronic signs for public
informational purposes only, in areas zoned recreational open space on city and/or school-owned
property.
June 19 is considered the public hearing for the ordinance change.The next steps would be for the
City Council to have three readings on the change: June 26, July 10, and July 24. The City Council
could waive two of the three readings.
Pending the ordinance amendment, staff will'. begin to work with a consulting firm for design
renderings.and estimates for the electronic monument sign, complete with landscaping. The '.
drawings and estimates will be ultimately presented to Planning Commission and City Council.
The electronic monument sign is tentatively planned for placement at the comer of 33' and Silver
Lake Road, in front of the tennis courts on the side the hill.
Staff Recommendation:Staff recommends approval of the ordinance amendment.

RE: Review of the Next Steps in the Northwest Quadrant Master Planning Process
INTRODUCTION
The Northwest Quadrant Master Planning Process has been underway for seven months and we
are drawing to a close of the initial phase of this work. Several key decisions now need to be
made by the City Council. We would like to take this opportunity to update the Council on the
work completed to date and prepare the it for the decisions that lay ahead. We will provide the
Council with information about upcoming steps in the redevelopment process and discuss design
standards, an example of which is attached for your review. Similar detailed standards will need
to be prepared for the Northwest Quadrant redevelopment area in concert with the developer(s),
once selected. They can either take the form of an ordinance (like Burnsville's Heart of the City,
also attached for your review) or they can be incorporated by reference through the PUD process.
We will be presenting our final report to the Planning Commission on the July 17'h and to the
City Council on July 24'h. The Planning Commission will hold a public hearing and make a
recommendation to the Council regarding acceptance of the report. The Council will then be
asked to act on this recommendation and provide further direction to the consultant group
regarding next steps.
The report itself will contain a number of different components including a section summarizing
the work we have done with the Planning Steering Committee, comments we have received from
the committee, the results of the background studies completed by our team of consultants, and
feedback received at the open house held in March. Another section will highlight two principle
r ;
redevelopment concepts and a concise analysis of the factors that have driven their design. A
further section will contain a design framework discussing the key design elements that will be
used in assessing development proposals. This framework will also serve as a basis for
negotiation of final design standards with the selected developer(s) in order to ensure that the end
product reflects the community's vision aesthetically and functionally. A final section will
include a list of proposed criteria to be used developer(s) selection and a proposed selection
process.
SUMMARY OF THE NEXT STEPS
1. COMPLETE THE CONSULTANT'S REPORT FOR CITY ADOPTION
We are in the process of completing our report for review by the Steering Committee, Planning
Commission, and City Council in July. There are clearly some findings and recommendations in
the form of key redevelopment principles that we know will need to be stated emphatically in the
report. We also know that the public participation process, the issues and community objectives
information will be included. We have yet to finalize our recommendation as to how far the City
should go in defining the project design elements of the concept plans before involving the
project developer(s). There is a balance to be struck between defining these elements to the point
where the City can be comfortable with the projected outcome and allowing enough flexibility to
effectively collaborate with the developer(s). We do not believe that the City should rigidly
define the concept plans prior to selecting the developer(s).
On Wednesday, June 13, the Metropolitan Council hosted a "Practicum" on urban redevelopment
projects. We participated in that process with the City of Burnsville and their Heart of the City
Development. The other development project reviewed was St. Louis Park's Park Commons
development. Both communities talked about what they would do differently, if they were to
start over and both communities said that they would have involved the developer, or developers,
sooner. Both also said that they would have waited until they had selected a developer before
they finalized their concept plans and detailed design guidelines. We will discuss this key
question in greater detail at the June 26 meeting.
Attached for your review is an example of design standards and ordinance from the Heart of the
City project in Burnsville. Similar tools will need to be prepared for the Northwest Quadrant
redevelopment.
2. IDENTIFY DEVELOPMENT PHASING OPTIONS
Obviously there are many other decisions that will need to be made before the actual project
phasing will be determined. However, it is appropriate for budgeting and other planning
purposes to identify some basic assumptions about project phasing.
3. DETERMINE CRITICAL PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS
Likewise, it is almost inevitable that the final project will look different than the current concepts
and may include some other features that will affect project costs. At this point we need to
identify the major public improvements that will be essential to the project from the earliest
stage. The costs associated with these improvements need to be identified and tied to the project
phasing. Funding options for these improvements also need to be sought out early on in the
process.
4. MARKETING THE PROJECT TO DEVELOPERS, EVALUATING PROPOSALS,
SELECTING A DEVELOPER
Ehlers & Associates will review and discuss how the project will be marketed to developers. The
concept plans will be used as a basis to guide both the City and potential developers during the
selection process and as a benchmark in the evaluation of proposals.
Attached for your review is the list of next steps identified by Ehlers & Associates a the last
Steering Committee meeting.
We look forward to meeting with the Council and to getting your input and direction on the
upcoming phases of the Northwest Quadrant Master Plan.

D. PROJECT APPROACH
Through the Heart of the City plan, Burnsville will develop a community center that strategically responds to regional smart growth and livable community issues.An
abridged summary of the planning process conducted by the City follows.
• Community Involvement
A successful redevelopment plan responds to the objectives and vision established by the stakeholders. Burnsville citizens have been involved in the
Heart of the City design process by serving on the Task Force, and/or by participating in the visual preference survey, interviews, open houses, and
other public meetings.
• Previous Visioning and Planning Exercises
The Heart of the City design process reaffirms and builds upon the planning foundation established through the Burnsville 2000 visioning program,the
Comprehensive Plan, Partnerships for Tomorrow, and recent improvement projects for the Burnsville Parkway bridge and the Burnsville Parkway and
Nicollet Avenue streetscapes,
• Design Principles Defined
Proven traditional town planning principles reinforce the Heart of the City vision and have guided the framework plan's development.
• Real Market Conditions
As with any redevelopment project,the Heart of the City plan must be driven in part by market conditions for commercial,office,and residential uses.
Maxfield Research has completed a market research study for the Heart of the City district, which is reflected in the physical plan.
• Illustrative Framework Plan
A design framework plan provides the overall vision for the Heart of the City, guides both public and private investment decisions, and illustrates the
intent of the design principles,
• Implementation Strategies
The new Heart of the City Zoning District Ordinance contains standards that effectuate the principles and relationships established in this Framework
Plan.
Heartt of the City - Design Framework Introduction 1- 2
E. HEART OF THE CITY STEERING COMMITTEE
The Heart of the City initiative is comprised of a number of committees responsible for specific areas of interest. A Steering Committee coordinates each
subcommittee's activities,establishes priorities,and manages the process.The Heart of the City Special District Committee,a subcommittee of the Heart of the
City Steering Committee, has supervised the district's planning and design process. In addition to the chair and co-chair of the various committees, the Steering
Committee consists of the City Council, Planning Commission, City Staff,the Chamber of Commerce, residential and commercial property owners, as well as
the education and faith communities.
F DESIGN PROCESS
The following steps were undertaken for this project:
• An analysis of existing site and market conditions;
• A visual preference survey workshop to establish image and character preferences for architecture,signs and streetscapes;
• Preparation of town planning and design principles;
• Preparation of an illustrative framework plan;
• Organization of a Developers' Forum to gain insight and suggestions from the development community;
• Development of the HOC zoning district to support the design principles;
• Preparation of a development cost proforma; and
• Creation of this Design Framework Manual

G. HOW TO USE THIS DESIGN FRAMEWORK MANUAL
As a supplement to the HOC zoning ordinance, this framework serves as a "kit of parts" for evaluating
development proposals so that each architectural and streetscape project contributes to a positive im-

site redevelopment or in a larger public im-
provement project.

The manual is divided into six sections:
Part ll: Background
The Background section describes the Heart of the City's existing conditions, provides a summary
of the Maxfield Research market study,and outlines the findings from the Visual Preference Survey
and background studies.
Part 111: Master Framework Plan
The Master Framework Plan provides an overall vision of the Heart of the City and illustrates the
Intent of the design principles and objectives.
Part IV: Streets Types
The Street Types section describes the character of each of the street types and the recom-
mended design elements and types of street furniture,
Part V: Building Design Guidelines
This chapter illustrates design guidelines for architecture,site design, signs, and other elements.
Part VI: Stormwater Design Guidelines
The Stormwater Design Guidelines section illustrates a variety of innovative techniques for manag-
ing Stormwater.
Part VII: Implementation
The Implementation section discusses the role of an advisory Design Review Committee.

E. DESIGN OBJECTIVES
The objectives described below were evolved through the site analysis,community input and results of the Visual Preference Survey.The objectives provide the
basis for the design of the Heart of the City redevelopment district(see Figure II-6).
Burnsville Parkway and Nicollet Avenue Gateways
• Burnsville Parkway and Nicollet Avenue streetscape improvements will soon be completed, reinforcing these corridors as parkways and gateways to the
Heart of the City. Future buildings should be placed up to the street to shape these gateway corridors.
• Reinforce a connection to the MVTA transit station north of Highway 13 through infill development and streetscape improvements.
1-35W Bridge Improvements
• Define the HOC district's west entry by integrating improvements to the 1-35W bridge with the Burnsville Parkway and Nicollet Avenue streetscapes,
Intersection of Nicollet Avenue and Burnsville Parkway
• Through the use of landmark architecture and streetscape treatments,define the Nicollet Avenue/Burnsville Parkway intersection as the primary crossroads
and entry to the Heart of the City Town Center,
Skyline and Bluff View
• Frame views to the Minneapolis skyline with building massing along the north/south streets.
Freeway Edge
• Define the edge of the HOC District, as viewed from the freeway, through building massing and landscaping,
Street Pattern
• Augment the established street network by creating a 300-foot street grid and by defining a hierarchy of streetscape treatments.
Nicollet Avenue
• Reinforce the segment between Burnsville Parkway and Highway 13 as the Town Center Core.
• Express Nicollet Avenue's elevational change through building massing and architectural treatments.
• Reinforce the connection between the HOC District and Civic and Residential uses to the south through streetscape treatments and appropriate land
uses.
Pedestrian District
• Within a 5-to 10-minute walk of the Heart of the City district, intensify the development pattern to create a pedestrian-friendly, compact, mixed-use center
of activity.

that will have the highest concentration of mixed Build-To Lines
uses and public improvements. New buildings will be placed at the sidewalk or right-of-way line. Parking lots will be placed in side and rear
yards.
Street Hierarchy
A hierarchy of streets will emphasize and respond to the different street functions within the Heart of the City
District.A grid system, providing a more interconnected system of pedestrian linkages and consisting of 300-
foot blocks,a size conducive to small-scale development,will be integrated into the existing street pattern.
A brief description of the street types follows.
1 . Gateways and Parkways
Tree-lined boulevards will shape Burnsville Parkway and Nicollet Avenue. Buildings will be positioned up to
the street to create distinctive gateways to the Heart of the City.
2. Commercial Streets: Two-Way with Angled Parking
Located within the core around Nicollet Commons, commercial streets will serve the local businesses
and parks. Angled parking maximizes the number of on-street spaces and provides a traffic calming
measure as well.
3. Local and Residential Streets: Two-Way with Parallel Parking
Local and residential streets serve the surrounding neighborhoods and provide connections to the Town
Center core.

STREET
"Attachment to the area and the sense of place that it
imparts expand with the individual's walking familiarity
with it.In such locales,parents and their children range
freely. The streets are not only safe,they invite human
connection."
Ray Oldenburg
The Great Good Place
Streets serve as the stage where people interact
in public. The way in which a street is designed
often determines the level and quality of interac-
tion.
The Heart of the City's streets strongly delineate
the district's identity and open space framework.
They provide the backbone to the district, a set-
ting for casual meetings,and open space for pub-
lic gatherings and festivals.
A hierarchy of streetscape treatments, illustrated
in Figure IV-1,will highlight and respond to the dif-
ferent districts and street functions within the Heart
of the City They include:
• Gateways & Parkways: Burnsville Parkway,
Nicollet Avenue,and Travelers Trail
• Commercial Streets
• Local&Residential Streets
The term, "streetscape,"refers to an area's physi-
cal setting, which is shaped by the relationships
and design of buildings, parking lots/structures,
streets,sidewalks and landscaping,as well as street
furniture,such as lamps, benches, planters, kiosks,
bus shelters, and public art. The design intent of
each of the various street types follows.

Objective: Shape Community Identity with Buildings not Parking Lots
An environment without percehroble boundaries Is amorphous, Indistinguishable from Its surroundings, and -
generally placeless."
Alex Krieger,PLACES, Winter, 9996.
Buildings placed up to the street especially at Intersections,will shape the street corridors and ultimately
the identity of the community.
Street corridor edges are defined by: °
• Locating buildings In close proximity to the street;
• Locating buildings at the corner of sites abutting intersections;
• Buffering parking lot edges with a combination of trees,plantings,walls or railings;and
• Placing parking at the side or rear of the building Figure V-2:Conventional
Development Model:
Continuous Building Wall Parking Lots Deflne
Traditional downtown streets are lined with contiguous buildings which provide a backdrop for pedestrian Streetscape and Identity
activities and visually enclose the street.The Heart of the City district encourages continuous building walls
through frontage requirements,build-to lines and minimal Interior side yard setbacks.
Alignment
In order to maintain the "street wall," buildings are controlled by the type of street on which they are
located in the Heart of the City district.The street types control building massing and setbacks.
• In the HOC-1 District at least 65 percent of the street frontage of any lot must be occupied by building _ .,,14;,, ,•,
facades meeting the build-to line.
• In the HOC-2 District at least 40 percent of the street frontage of any lot must be occupied by building r
facades meeting the bulld-to line. ..
Figure V-3:Traditional Development Model:
Buildings Define Intersections,
Street Corridors and Identity
Heart of the City - Design Framework Building Design Guidelines V -3
Build-to Line
Building frontages define the public space by creating an even facade line along the street.The first and second floors are required to meet the build-to line with
either an enclosed building or an arcade possessing a permanent roof and constructed of the some materials as the remainder of the building.
Three types of build-to lines have been established for the front and comer side yard setbacks in the HOC District:Classes 10, 15,and 20,which correspond to
build-to lines measuring 10, 15,and 20 feet from the front lot line. For lots with more than one street frontage,the build-to line applies to each side fronting a
street.
• Build-to Line,Class 10.The required setback measures between 10 feet and 15 feet from the right-of-way or property line for all properties on streets identified
as having a Class 10 Build-to Line, except for Nicollet Avenue, which has a setback of 11 feet.
• Build-to Line, Class 15. The required setback measures between 15 feet and 20 feet from the right-of-way or property line for all properties on streets
identified as having a Class 15 Build-to Line.
• Build-to Line, Class 20, The required setback measures between 20 feet and 25 feet from the right-of-way or property line for all properties on streets
identified as having a Class 20 Build-to Line, except for Burnsville Parkway,which has a setback of 21 feet.
Interior Side and Rear Yard Setbacks
Setbacks for the side and rear yards of principal buildings and accessory structures have been greatly reduced for the Heart of the City District, in particular for
the HOC-1 subdistrict where the minimum Interior side yard setback is 0 feet.

and awnings are encouraged in order to ac- a.
centuate the relationship between a building's
ground floor and the street, and to protect
pedestrians from the elements,
Complementary building alignments, widths, and
Height rhythms
In the Heart of the City District, the minimum and
maximum building heights are governed by street
type, Minimum heights range between 25 and 30
feet. Maximum heights range between 35 and 50
feet. Office/Retail in HOC-2 are not subject to a
ma>amum height.

Objective: Prohibit Boring, Blank Walls
Large expanses of blank walls create an unfriendly pedestrian environment.Walls facing the street or
walkway should be punctuated with display windows,doors, Indentations,or.other fenestration to add
visual Interest on the street.All sides of a building visible to the public should be treated consistently with
quality materials and finishes.
Facades fronting a street or public open space that are wider than 60 feet must be divided architectur-
ally by means of:
• Significantly different materials or textures;
• Horizontal offsets measuring at least four feet In depth;
Vertical offsets In the roof line measuring at least four feet;
• First floor fenestration recessed horizontally a minimum of one foot into the facade, or
• A combination of these elements.
Special attention should be given to Incorporating unique brick patterns, cornice shapes, brackets,
scuppers, columns and a variety of architectural accents that enhance the facades and add a trodi-
tional character.
Canopies
The use of pilasters and canopies at the transom level above a storefront is appropriate, The sequenc-
ing of canopies should vary so as to discourage a long,continuous strip of awnings.

Objective: Signs Should Complement Building Appearance
Signs are an Important architectural element for any business. However, since signs Influence the overall -
character and appearance of the streetscape,they should be designed to complement the architecture.
Sign types Inappropriate to the HOC-1 district include pylon and free-standing signs,as well as roof signs.See
They detract from the appearance of the area, and are not typically needed where buildings are placedf`'
closer to the street and thus more visible.Franchise logos and Identification signs should be allowed only if they
are scaled down In size and are Integrated Into the building facade and street character. Buildings and gas
station canopies designed as signs are prohibited.See page V-15 for examples of monument signs appropri-
ate for the HOC-2 district.
Overhanging Signs
Overhanging signs received the highest rating in the Visual Preference Survey.Overhanging signs,If appropri- r-
ately designed, can add significant charm and character to a building facade and streetscape.They are r `'
permitted with the following restrictions;
• The maximum size for a projecting sign is 12 square feet in area on each side and one foot in thickness.
• Signs may project no more than four feet from the front edge of the building.
• Projecting signs may extend over a public right-of-way or public property with a conditional use permit but Overhanging Slgn
are prohibited from extending over a designated parking space or loading area.
• Box and cabinet signs are prohibited,excepting logo signs approved as part of the overall signage plan.
Attached Wall Signs
Multiple tenant buildings may achieve individuality through the use of varied building materials and facade
detailing.Signs may be varied in terms of lettering styles and lighting,while maintaining regularity in their size
and location.Attached wall signage Is allowed In the Heart of the City district with the following restrictions;
• Attached wall signs are permitted within a horizontal band at least 10 feet above the ground to a
maximum of 15 feet.
• Wall signs may project no more than one foot from the facade.
• The maximum size for a wall sign is one and one-half square feet per lineal foot of building frontage on a
public street,public open space or private parking wall.
• Box and cabinet signs are prohibited,except for logo signs approved as part of the overall signage plan.

Burnsville is a winter city where the warmth of sun- ;
light in the middle of January can be absorbed
on the sunny north side of many of the streets. R �
SlTeetscape treatments and building designs should `
take advantage of a sunny winter location by in- ti�L -
corporating darker, warmth-absorbing materials
and protected areas for pedestrian comfort. ,
In addition to sheltering pedestrians from the ele-
ments,awnings protect window displays from sun .-
damage,and keep store interiors cooler on sunny
summer days. Retractable awnings possess the _
ability to capture sun warmth and natural lighting.
As a general rule,awnings must conform to a stan-
dard of 7'-6"of clearance between awning frames -
and the sidewalk,

10-2213-1: INTENT AND PURPOSE:
The purpose of the "HOC" Heart of the City District is to provide an area for compact, mixed use
development made mutually compatible through a combination of careful planning and urban
design and coordinated public and private investment. The mixture of land uses within the
district is essential to establishing the level of vitality and intensity needed to support retail and
service uses. The placement of building edges and treatment of building, parking, landscaping,
and pedestrian spaces is essential to creating the pedestrian-friendly environment envisioned for
the Heart of the City District. The standards in this ordinance are intended to implement and
effectuate the principles and relationships established in the Burnsville Heart of the City
Framework Plan, which will be carried out through specific standards related to site planning,
signage, architecture, building materials, and landscaping.

12 Chair Melsha invited the Commission and the audience to join in the Pledge of Allegiance.
13
14 III. ROLL CALL.
15 Commissioners present: Chair Melsha, Vice Chair Stille; Commissioners Hanson, Hatch,
16 Steeves,Thomas, and Tillman.
17 Commissioner absent: None.
18 Also present: Assistant City Manager Sue Henry.
19
20 IV. APPROVAL OF AGENDA.
21 Motion by Chair Melsha, second by Commissioner Thomas, to approve the meeting agenda.
22
23 Motion carried unanimously.
24
25 V. PUBLIC INPUT.
26 Resident Martin Lunde, of 3425 33`d Avenue Northeast,expressed his desire that the Apache
27 Housing Plan be built with energy efficiency,electrical efficiency, and environmental cleanliness
28 all in mind. Mr. Lunde stated that he is in the engineering business, and is aware that those
29 requests are very easy to meet, if they are done up front in the design process and not as an
30 afterthought.
31
32 Mr. Lunde indicated that the above suggestions are inexpensive. He requested that the
33 Commission keep the quality of the area and the structures being built there at the absolute top of
34 their list. He stated that the efficiency of a building is oftentimes lost to the appearance, but that
35 one does not have to be sacrificed for the other.
36
37 Mr. Lunde,indicated that choosing the right equipment is the key to successfully achieving an
38 energy-conscious building. He identified a few examples of the type of.building of which he was
39 speaking, and asked the Commission for any feedback that they had.
40
41 Commissioner Thomas stated that he was glad to hear energy efficiency being the focus of Mr.
42 Lunde's list, as it is at the top of his list, as well. He indicated that a windmill at the top of the
43 building would provide an excellent use of energy, and could be created in a way that would be
44 aesthetically appealing. Mr. Lunde stated that things could definitely be taken a step further than
45 his windmill example by simply factoring in daylight and southern exposure glass.
46
47 He also indicated that he has spent the better part of the past two years in Asia, and stated that he
48 has seen the majority of their structures operating using energy efficiency, primarily with solar
Planning Commission Meeting
June 19, 2001

1 water heating. Mr. Lunde added that, even on a cloudy day, you receive sixty percent of the
2 energy that a sunny day provides. He suggested that, if they build-in base level strategies and
3 then have options, they would eliminate over ninety percent of the problems.
4
5 Vice Chair Stille asked if Mr. Lunde could refer to any buildings in the United States that have
6 been built using the energy efficiency strategy he was requesting. Mr. Lunde referred to a group
7 of buildings in Maine that are almost totally self-sustained.
8
9 Mr. Lunde thanked the Planning Commission for listening to his requests. The Planning
10 Commission thanked Mr. Lunde for his expertise and input.
11
12 VI. MEETING MINUTES.
13 6.1 Review/Approval of Planning Commission Minutes of May 15, 2001.
14 Commissioner Tillman requested that Page 4, line 6, read: "...Committee, but the
15 ordinance states that any truck weighing over nine thousand pounds has to list it's weight
16 on the side of the truck."
17
18 Motion by Commissioner Hatch, second by Commissioner Hanson, to approve the May
19 15, 2001 Planning Commission Meeting Minutes, as corrected above.
20
21 Motion carried 6-1, Chair Melsha abstained.
22
23 VII. COMMUNICATION WITH CITY COUNCIL.
24 7.1 Designate a Planning Commissioner to the City Council regular meeting of June 26,
25 2001.
26 Chair Melsha asked Commissioner Thomas if he would attend the next City Council
27 meeting on June 26`h, 2001. Commissioner Thomas agreed to attend.
28
29 VIII. PUBLIC HEARINGS.
30 8.1 Lot Combination Request by Tom Palkowski, 2816 Highway 88, to combine two
31 adjacent lots into one.
32 Sue Henry explained that Tom Palkowski, of 2816 Highway 88,owns two pieces of land
33 that are adjacent to one another, and would like to have the two lots combined into one.
34
35 Chair Melsha asked if the City Attorney had any issues when he reviewed the request.
36 Ms. Henry responded that he did not have any concerns.
37
38 Mr. Palkowski formally requested the lot combination, and explained that an addition to
39 his home would expand beyond the land that is currently there.
40
41 Commissioner Thomas asked if he had spoken to his neighbors with regard to the
42 addition. He stated that he had spoken with them, and that the change would be
43 insignificant to them.
44
Planning Commission Meeting
June 19, 2001
Page 3
1 Motion by Chair Melsha, second by Vice Chair Stille, to approve the lot combination
2 request.
3
4 Motion carried unanimously.
5
6 8.2 City ordinance amendment to allow electronic signs, for public informational uses only,
7 in areas zoned recreational open space on city and/or school-owned property.
8 Sue Henry stated that one of the city's goals for 2001 was to establish an electronic reader
9 board in the community. She explained that, in order to accomplish this, an ordinance
10 change is necessary, as electronic signs/reader boards are not currently permitted in the
11 City.
12
13 Vice Chair Stille stated that the recommendation to change this ordinance did not include
14 restrictions regarding flashing signs, scrolling, etc. and that the sub-committee suggested
15 that the sign only make changes a couple of times a day. Chair Melsha asked them to
16 elaborate. Commissioner Tillman added that they were suggesting that the sign could
17 _change twice in a twenty-four hour period.
18
19 Ron Hansen, of 3220 Belden Drive, has lived in the City of St. Anthony for thirty-two
20 years, and requested that the ordinance change not be made, largely because he had a lot
21 of questions regarding the change.
22
23 He indicated that his concerns were that, at a time of new development and getting away
24 from extravagant signage, he felt that it does not have a place in the City of St. Anthony.
25 He stated he believes that the City of St. Anthony has a very liberal sign ordinance.
26
27 Mr. Hansen asked if the city has decided that the city purchase the sign. He stated that, if
28 they have not decided to purchase a sign, then why were they discussing the amendment
29 of the sign ordinance.
30
31 Vice Chair Stille indicated that they have not formally decided to purchase a new
32 electronic sign, and that they are exploring amending the ordinance for the benefit of
33 better communication within the city. He stated that it is intended that the sign be used
34 for public information, and that it is a good alternative for the city in terms of aesthetics.
35
36 Chair Melsha stated that there is a caution among the Commissioners about the
37 appearance and the features of the sign, which is why all of the discussed restrictions for
38 the sign exist. He referred to the sign at the Stonehouse, and indicated that it was a sign
39 that they would not like to emulate.
40
41 Commissioner Hanson indicated that the sign was first mentioned when they were
42 discussing improving the appearance of City Hall. He added that Walgreen's had
43 requested a variance to the sign ordinance back when they were interested in opening a
44 store in the City of St. Anthony, which is what caused them to examine the ordinance.
45 He also stated that, after three years of serving on the Planning Commission, he was
Planning Commission Meeting
June 19, 2001
Page 4
1 frustrated with being a reactionary Commission, which is why they have decided to be _
2 proactive after they denied the request from Walgreen's.
3
4 Mr. Hansen wanted to know why they were discussing_amending the sign ordinance.
5 Commissioner Tillman stated that the issue does.not meet the criteria for a variance,
6 because there is not any hardship. Chair Melsha stated that, if they feel it is necessary to
7 have the sign for a public purpose, than amending the sign ordinance makes sense, as
8 opposed to always dealing with variances.
9
10 Mr. Hansen stated that he had a problem with Chair Melsha's statement, and indicated
11 that a number of other residents would have come forward to dispute the idea of the
12 electronic sign, had they known the position of the Commission on the issue. He cited a
13 number of buildings and houses that have a sign in front of them, and suggested that they
14 hold a hearing to discuss this sign, and indicated that at least twenty-five residents would
15 be present to provide the reasons for which they feel the ordinance should not take place.
16 He read an article from the Minneapolis newspaper that was written by the Dennis
17 .Cavanaugh, the Mayor for the City of St. Anthony, which talked about the increasing
18 taxes in the City of St. Anthony.
19
20 Mr. Hansen asked why they are trying to amend the ordinance when the sign has not been
21 approved, rather than leaving the ordinance as it.is, with the need to request a variance.
22
23 Commissioner Hanson indicated that the Planning Commission wants to have something
24 in the books so that when a retailer, such as Walgreen's, wants to come into the City, sees
25 the City Code and does not waste anyone's time requesting a variance. Mr. Hansen
26 suggested that they amend the ordinance to state that signs, like Walgreen's, are not
27 allowed, except by variance.
28
29 Commissioner Tillman stated that discussion is taking place because of the community
30 interest in having such a sign.
31
32 Mr. Hansen asked the following questions regarding the sign:
33 1. How much will the sign cost?
34 2. Who will maintain the.sign?
35 3. What will the sign look like?
36
37 Mr. Hansen concluded by saying that, before they decide to change the ordinance, they
38 need to inform residents, and allow them to express their unhappiness over the potential
39 ordinance change. He read a statement from a sign ordinance for a nearby city, which
40 made reference to the safety issues with drivers trying to do too much. Mr. Hansen
41 elaborated on the statement by listing several of the buildings and structures that are
42 found around the intersection where they are proposing the sign be placed.
43
Planning Commission Meeting
June 19, 2001
Page 5
1 Chair Melsha asked if Mr. Hansen was against the idea of a sign, or the idea of an
2 electronic sign. Mr. Hanson stated that he did not think that the City of St. Anthony
3 needed any more signs at all.
4
„5 Mr. Hansen reiterated his belief that, once the ordinance is changed and there exist no
6 more public hearings regarding it, there will be several unhappy residents.
7
8 Mr. Hansen indicated that there are other ways to communicate with the community, and
9 that the money used on the sign could be better spent. He expressed his opinion that
10 signs are one of the most archaic types of communication out there. He asked for the
11 Commission to identify any other cities that have signs like the one they are proposing be
12 built. Commissioner Hanson.referred to a sign in Mounds View, Vice Chair Stille
13 referred to the four-sided sign in Eden Prairie.
14
15 Commissioner Thomas stated that his issues and concerns were very valid but, ultimately,
16 the decision on the ordinance would be determined by the City Council, and he suggested
17 that Mr. Hansen organize the proper people on the Council and state his argument.
18
19 Mr. Hansen concluded by saying that the Planning Commission finds out if the City sign
20 is really going to change, before they decide to change the ordinance. He added that, if it
21 does.pass,.there is no additional public hearing for residents to express their concerns, and
.22 he believes there are several residents-who have negative feelings toward the proposed.
23 City sign. He urged the Planning Commission to reconsider the changing of the
24 ordinance before they are certain whether, or not, they will have the new City sign.
25
26 Chair Melsha closed the public hearing at 7:50 p.m. He addressed the Commission and
27 stated that there are details surrounding the sign of which he was uncertain, such as the
28 number of times that the message on the sign would change. Vice Chair Stille stated that
29 they have discussed in detail the amount of flashing, the number of times the sign would
30 change per day(two), and that the messages would be appropriate.
31
32 Chair Melsha asked if they needed to discuss the aesthetic issues such as brightness, or
33 types of electronic devices that could be used. Commissioner Hanson suggested that the
34.' sign.be turned off after hours.
35
36 Ms. Henry stated that she thought that the draft needed to be fine-tuned to define
37 electronic sign, and contain more specifics about the content of the information intended
38 for display on the sign. Commissioner Hanson stated that he did not approve
39 recommending something of which he would not being able to see the final draft and
40 language.
41
42 Commissioner Steeves stated that the comments made this evening made him realize that
43 the ordinance needs to change first, and that the specifics be decided subsequently, rather
44 than the other way around. He stated that the ordinance needs to dictate, and the
Planning Commission Meeting
June 19, 2001
Page 6
1 conditions would be set by the City Council and the Planning Commission. He suggested
2 that they remain broad with their ordinance.
3
4 Vice Chair-Stille agreed with Commissioner Steeves' comments to change the ordinance.
5 Chair Melsha indicated that the decision to change the ordinance was consistent,with the
6 City's philosophy to fix the policy. Ms. Henry indicated that this evening is for the
7 public input, not the actual language of the ordinance. She added that this evening is not
8 where they draft the actual language, and as long as the Commission is comfortable with
9 the direction, they can move forward.
10
11 Commissioner Thomas asked if it was possible to have the City look into the safety
12 implications of the sign, as part of a conditional use so that they could have some of that
13 information before a final decision on the sign was made. Commissioner Steeves stated
14 that would be part of the conditional use application that would accompany a sign
15 proposal.
16
17 Commissioner Steeves added that he was really opposed to the Planning Commission
18 having a specific project inform the ordinance change, rather than thinking of the
19 ordinance change independent of any project because it is policy decision as opposed to a
20 project decision.
21
22 Chair Melsha asked Ms. Henry if it were acceptable to motion that they adopt an actual
23 ordinance change. Ms. Henry indicated that it was okay to do so now, or to extend the
24 public hearing to the next meeting.
25
26 Commissioner Tillman indicated that there is still the opportunity for residents to offer
27 their opinions at any of the following three readings by the City Council.
28
29 Chair Melsha asked if anyone would entertain a motion. Commissioner Hanson asked if
30 the conditions needed to be discussed tonight, since the Planning Commission would not
31 have the opportunity to view the ordinance change before it went to the City Council.
32 Commissioner Tillman stated that the conditions would be very specific for where they
33 decide to place the sign. Chair-Melsha stated that a lot of the things that they have
34 mentioned up to this point would be incorporated as conditions.
35
36 Commissioner Steeves indicated that the discussion tonight and the minutes from the
37 meeting will give ample guidance to the staff on potential conditions to be listed, and on
38 the thoughts of the Commission regarding the ordinance so that the staff, in consultation
39 with the City Attorney, will be able to draft language that will be fully acceptable.
40
41 Commissioner Hanson stated that he did not want the Council to be doing their work for
42 them by creating the language of the ordinance, and recommended that they table the
43 issue, and review possible conditional uses to discuss at the next meeting. Chair Melsha
44 indicated that he did not see any specific conditional uses being included in the ordinance.
Planning Commission Meeting
June 19, 2001
Page 7
1 He added that there could be certain criteria that could be factored into the ordinance
2 instead.
3
4 Commissioner Hanson stated that, since they are creating the ordinance right now, they
5 did not have to be vague. Vice Chair Stille thought that the redirection of the
6 Commission gives them more control for when the application does come in.
7
8 Commissioner Tillman stated that, in the past, the Planning Commission has not been a
9 part of determining the actual language. Vice Chair Still agreed with Commissioner
10 Tillman.
11
12 Commissioner Thomas stated that he was comfortable sending this on to the Council if
13 the Planning Commission specified some of the things they were looking for from the
14 Council. He mentioned the need to address safety issues, and to determine the
15 restrictions and cost of the proposed sign. He added that he found many of Mr. Hansen's
16 comments to be very relevant.
17 .
18 Commissioner Hanson indicated that the Council had the power to waive two of the three
19 proposed readings.
20
21 Commissioner Hatch observed that the Commission seemed to be sort of divided on
22 whether to make,the ordinance specific, or vague. He suggested that they ask.the.Council
23 what they would rather see from the Commission.
24
25 Chair Melsha did not think that the Commission was very divided. He stated that either
26 there would be conditions that need to be met, or there would be conditions that would be
27 considered. He did not believe that anyone on the Commission was saying that they
28 should make the ordinance so specific that they would be identifying kind of sign,etc.
29
30 Commissioner Tillman added that operating that specifically would take away a lot of
31 their power.
32
33 Commissioner Hanson stated that he would like to see an updated draft before they make
34 a recommendation to the City Council.
35
36 Vice Chair Stille stated that he was in agreement with Commissioner Hanson to postpone
37 until the end of next month. Ms. Henry indicated that the Council could decide
38 otherwise. Commissioner Thomas stated that perhaps they should come to more
39 consensuses this evening.
40
41 Vice Chair Stille suggested that they go back to Commissioner Steeves' way of thinking,
42 and use vague language in order to cater each sign to fit the characteristics of the location.
43 Chair Melsha stated that he did not have any problem with adopting a recommendation
44 that says that they want the ordinance to be changed, with the conditional uses in the
45 memo, as well as safety and aesthetic issues to be considered.

9 IX. INFORMATION AND ANNOUNCEMENTS.
10 9.1 Next steps in the Northwest Quadrant Redevelopment Master Planning Process.
11 Craig Rapp, with Dahlgren, Shardlow and Uban (DSU),came forward to update the
12 Commission with where they are in the process of the Northwest Quadrant
13 Redevelopment Project. He stated that he was a principal of the firm, and was filling in
14 for John Shardlow, who had a prior commitment tonight.
15
16 He stated that he was there to provide a recap of the big picture of the process of
17 redeveloping the Northwest Quadrant. He reviewed his background, indicating his high
18 level of expertise with regard to the project. He also expressed how much his firm has
19 enjoyed working on this project with the staff in the City of St. Anthony. He indicated
20 that it was important to remember that it is a step-by-step incremental process, and that
21 they need to keep an eye on the future and to build on the momentum that has been
22 created.
23
24 Mr. Rapp stated it was crucial in a redevelopment process that the City to have a vision,
25 as well as an understanding of the reasons behind the redevelopment project that they are
26 about to embark on. He added that it would be very important for the developers that will
27 be coming forward and providing their capital, to have an understanding of the level of
28 partnership that they will be entering into with them, so that they know that they have the
29 chance to impart their expertise into the project.
30
31 Mr. Rapp indicated that there are several reasons as to why a city decides to reinvest in
32 itself. He stated that the Apache Plaza area is a significant piece of property in the City of
33 St. Anthony, and noted that it appears to be an appropriate time for the City to respond to
34 the changes that have taken place in the retail.market that have left Apache Plaza behind.
35 He stated the need to determine whether the City is prepared to make the necessary
36 changes.
37
38 Mr. Rapp indicated that the steering committee has determined some concepts and ideas
39 that will be presented tonight by Jeff Basil. He added that it is important that they all
40 understand what the priorities have been for the project.
41
42 Mr. Rapp stated that the property was very well located for a lot of different things,but
43 that there was a major impediment, called the Midwest Asphalt Plant. Determining how
44 to deal with Midwest Asphalt Plant is the largest, and first step that needs to be addressed
45 in the project.
Planning Commission Meeting
June 19, 2001

1 _
2 Mr. Rapp stated that DSU was winding down their involvement, but that they would be
3 providing the Planning Commission with a packet of information next month. He
4 indicated'that the packet would include the broad concepts that they'want them to look at, .
5. the.priorities and phasing of the development, a design framework, and a developers_
6 selection process outline.
7
8 Mr. Rapp cautioned the Commission to think about a design framework with general
9 guidelines,rather than with specific and detailed design standards. He added that it is an
10 easier way to get their concept and vision communicated to the potential developers,
11 while allowing-the developers to help fashion their needs within the desired framework.
12
13 Chair Melsha asked if what Mr. Rapp was describing was similar to the Heart of the City
14 in Burnsville. Mr. Rapp replied that the Heart of the City was a little too refined for the
15 potential developers, which is why he was encouraging them to keep their guidelines
16 fairly general.
17
18 Mr. Rapp reminded the Commission that they are one-third of the way along the
19 continuum in the final resolution process, but that it is too soon to exclude a lot of choices
20 and ideas that.come to the table.
21 .
22 Jeff.Basil, of DSU;came forward to review the Northwest Quadrant and the intended
23 goals of the process, focusing primarily on the Apache Plaza area. He stated that the
24 Salvation Army Camp will likely be purchased by Hennepin Regional Parks and be
25 maintained as a public open-space facility.
26
27 Mr. Basil touched on the water quality in Silver Lake. He stated it was improving,but
28 still is not necessarily good for swimming at this point. He identified one of the goals of
29 the redevelopment process is to minimize the negative impacts of Apache Plaza on the
30 lake.
31
32 Mr. Basil continued his review by identifying the existing structures on the Northwest
33 Quadrant. He referred to the lack of accessibility to the mall from the road, and stated
34 that they have been deciding which things are changeable, and which would be left alone.
35
36 Mr. Basil stated that there are some basic things that need to be done to the cite in order
37 to make it an attractive redevelopment area. One of the major changes he indicated was
38 that a major roadway was needed to provide access to the internal part of the project. He
39 also stated that they need to establish tight connections to the new park facility, given the
40 limitations such as the railroad tracks. He stated it was a large order, but absolutely key.
41
. 42 Mr. Basil indicated that a major market study revealed:
43 1. Housing demand is very high, strong and multi-layered.
44 2. Considerable office demand.
Planning Commission Meeting
June 19, 2001
Page 10
1 3. Retail demand equal to the amount of retail that exists on the cite today,
2 with the exception of the mall.
3
4 Mr. Basil stated that they have established two,primary concepts: Corporate
5 . Campus/Residential Concept, and Refined Development Concept.
6
7 The Corporate Campus is comprised of the following:
8 -500,000 square feet (built in two phases of 250,000 square feet each)
9 -2,000 parking spaces (5 level parking ramp, parking under buildings on the
10 surface)
11 The Residential Development is comprised of the following:
12 -150 units—Townhouses (30 foot wide units, two story)
13 -100 units—Senior High Rise
14 -156 units—3-4 story multiple dwellings
15 -Total: 406 units
16
17 The Refined Development Concept consists of the following:
18 -12 units—Villas (60 foot wide lots)
19 -68 units—Townhouses (30 foot wide units, two story)
20 -100 units—Senior High Rise
21 -330 units—4 story multiple dwellings .
22 =340 units. 3 story multiple dwellings
23 -Total: 850 units
24 75,000 square feet of mixed commercial
25 100,000 square feet of office
26
27 Mr. Basil stated that the two alternatives that he presented are, in a general sense, the type
28 of thing that they are going to end up with if they proceed with the redevelopment of the
29 mall.
30
31 Mr. Basil indicated that a lot of what had been presented was driven by was what the
32 community has requested, as well as external factors, what the market has to offer, and
33 what is feasible.
34 .
35 Commissioner Hanson asked if they had an idea how much quicker the total bill-out
36 could be if they had a Corporate Campus versus if it was all housing. Mr. Basil indicated
37 that the housing option could happen relatively quickly because of the variation in the
38 types housing. He added that the Corporate Campus would happen in one of two chunks
39 at a time.
40
41 Jim Prosser, of Ehlers and Associates, stated that he was there to discuss how the concept
42 and framework would get them to the end of the Redevelopment of the Northwest
43 Quadrant.
44
Planning Commission Meeting
June 19, 2001
Page 11
1 The framework elements that would be approved by the City would be used to solicit
2 proposals from developers. He indicated that they may have several different concepts to
3 explore simultaneously, which provides the City with better options.
4
..5 Mr. Prosser:stated that the development proposals that they receive are not plans:.Rather,
6 they encourage developers to define a cite-line, as opposed to an elevation and line detail.
7
8 Mr. Prosser stated that the Planners will use the general cite plan to evaluate and provide
9 the city feedback regarding the impact that the various proposals would have on the city
10 with reference to the framework elements that have been identified by the City.
11
12 Mr. Prosser stated they would provide the City,with an evaluation that considers the
13 financial feasibility. He stated that they would look at the cost to acquire the land
14 (including demolition and relocation), as well as any public improvements required to
15 accomplish that particular type of development.
16
17 Mr. Prosser indicated that they want to select a developer that appears to capture a
18 concept that is feasible, as well as one that is most responsive to the framework elements
19 that the City has identified.
20
21 Mr. Prosser indicated that the City of St. Anthony would likely be looking at.multiple
22 developers to develop the.selective pieces. He added that they want to see this billed out
23 as quickly as they can to not only meet the needs of the City, but to meet the needs of the
24 developers, as well. He stated that any developer that would take on this project would
25 be taking a significant leap of faith that other project elements are going to occur.
26
27 Mr. Prosser indicated that the next phase was the Developer Marketing and Solicitation.
28 Mr. Prosser identified several qualifications that they will be examining in the developers.
29 Among these qualifications were their ability to secure financing and equity, their ability
30 to work with the community, and their ability to partner with others.
31
32 Mr. Prosser stated that the next phase would be the Developer Selection Phase. He
33 indicated that they would review the information and report it back to the City Staff,
34 making no recommendation to them:
35
36 Mr. Prosser indicated that the following phase was the Developing Agreement Phase.
37 During that phase, the developer agrees to an actual timetable, and will begin to more
38 formally go to the public and do further refinement than when the Planning Commission
39 goes to the City Council for final approvals.
40
41 Mr. Prosser indicated that the work the Commission was doing was very important
42 because the framework helps provide a clear concept of what the developers should be
43 preparing in terms of proposals.
44
Planning Commission Meeting
June 19, 2001
Page 12
1 Mr. Prosser also stated that the most important thing that they can deliver to developers.is
2 time. He added that developers are more interested in working with cities that have taken
3 the time to create a pretty clear vision of what they want the final product to look like.
4
5 Mr. Prosser,indicated that there might be some.legislative changes that could impact what .
6 they are doing, but that they were not concerned yet.
7
8 Chair Melsha asked what Mr. Prosser's sense was on how developers view the city. Mr.
9 Prosser responded that developers like the idea that the City of St. Anthony has been
10 straightforward regarding the process. He added that developers also like the idea that the
11 City has talked to the developers early on in the process.
12
13 Commissioner Thomas asked Mr. Prosser if it were possible to fit multiple developers
14 into a Master Plan. Mr. Prosser indicated that it is a little more work to have multiple
15 developers, other than as a main developer with others playing a significantly smaller
16 role, so as not to create a clash. Otherwise, he added that it could be done as a
17 development team.
18
19 Commissioner Tillman stated that around the perimeter today there are businesses with
20 individual owners, and asked how it will work that they agree to relocate, or do the
21 necessary things to help in the Redevelopment of the Northwest Quadrant. Mr. Prosser
. 22 stated that the issue mentioned by Commissioner Tillman is perhaps the most difficult
23 aspect of the redevelopment process. He stated that he does not want to downplay how
24 disruptive and difficult redevelopment is on the existing businesses.
25
26 Mr. Prosser continued by listing a couple of options in handling those situations, being
27 upfront about what was happening was the most important. He identified Sue Henry as
28 one of the greater communicators that he works with. He added that she demands the
29 materials necessary to communicate with the City and the businesses within.
30
31 Commissioner Hanson asked if the City would be in a better position to present the
32 Corporate Campus entity to the developers, or to tell the developers that they were
33 looking for a Corporate Campus Concept and have them come up with a way to fill the
34 location. Mr. Prosser stated that they would end up doing both. He stated that they
35 would want to communicate as clearly as they can the best option possible. He stated that
36 it is unusual to have a major corporate client that would not have one or more developers
37 that they have worked with in the past.
38
39 Commissioner Thomas asked about the city putting in the main street, and the parking
40 that would have to be created for that. Mr. Prosser stated that the city would have two
41 advantages for the City to get involved with building and/or leasing: tax-exempt
42 financing to assist, and the cost of operation. He indicated that tax-exempt financing
43 would not be an option right now because it will likely be private-purpose.
44
Planning Commission Meeting
June 19, 2001
Page 13
1 Mr. Rapp indicated that it was rare that something like that would happen where the city
2 would directly finance a parking facility.
3
. 4 Mr. Rapp stated that in the Corporate Campus example that was shown tonight, the
5 parking provides the opportunity to get more d_ensity on.the rest of-the development
6 which, ultimately, helps numbers.
7
8 Mr. Prosser added that building a ramp is a tax-increment eligible expense. He added
9 that, in many cases, it is a really good way to increase the density.
10
11 Commissioner Hanson asked who he sees as the potential buyer of the Apache Plaza
12 Mall, and will it end up being the City? Mr. Prosser stated that he hoped that the City
13 would not end up buying the'Plaza, and demolishing the existing structure. He added
14 that, typically, the developer undertakes that effort.
15
16 Commissioner Thomas indicated that energy-efficiency could be something to evaluate
17 with regard to the framework of the Redevelopment of the Northwest Quadrant. Mr.
18 Prosser indicated it would be appropriate to include in the framework, and the amount of
19 weight that is placed on energy-efficiency in the final stages is determined by the City
20 Staff, as is true with all of the other components in the framework.
21
22 Commissioner Hanson asked if the City has looked into whether, or not, they can support
23 another two thousand new residents.- Mr. Prosser stated that they could determine that as
24 they go along, but that the people themselves are not the big impact. He identified
25 shopping centers and the other areas of compact development as having the greatest
26 impact on the City.
27
28 Chair Melsha asked where they go from here. Mr. Rapp stated that they will provide the
29 Commission with a packet filled with various details, answering questions that were
30 mentioned tonight.
31
32 The Planning Commission thanked all three gentlemen for their information.
33
34 V. COMMITTEE REPORTS.
35 10.1 Update from Antenna Ordinance Subcommittee- Chair Melsha.
36 Chair Melsha stated that he proposed a re-draft of the proposed Antenna Ordinance. He
37 indicated that they would have a draft of the Ordinance at the next meeting for the entire
38 Commission to evaluate.
39
40 10.2 Update from Housing Code Subcommittee.
41 Commissioner Hanson stated that they met last Thursday afternoon. He indicated that they read
42 through several documents that they received, regarding point-of-sale. They determined that
43 perhaps they hire an Enforcement Officer.
44
Planning Commission Meeting
June 19, 2001
Page 14
1 Commissioner Hanson stated that they looked at how they can put some teeth to the issue. He
2 suggested that it be known to all homeowners that before they can list their house, they must
3 obtain a copy of the inspection and pay a filing fee. Commissioner Hanson suggested that a
4. ninety-day.,time limit be placed on the homeowner to.meet the criteria of the inspection. He
5 added that, if no appeal.is filed by the homeowner, and there is no resolution of the.code
6 violation, the owner of the property would be charged with a misdemeanor.
7
8 Commissioner Thomas added that they liked the language in the New Hope ordinance. He
9 indicated that, under the purpose of the ordinance, they would add that it was to improve the
10 housing stock and that they would direct homeowners and buyers to the appropriate source for
11 securing low-interest loans. Commissioner Thomas added that they would connect the
12 homeowner to a source to help them make the improvements.
13
14 Chair Melsha thought that, once a home is purchased, the homeowner needed to file a homestead
15 with the City. No one on the Commission was certain.
16
17 Ms. Henry added that she had made copies of the New Hope, City of Minneapolis, and the City
18 of St. Anthony point-of-sales for the rest of the Commission so that they could provide the
19 Housing Code Subcommittee with educated suggestions.
20
21, XI. ANNOUNCEMENTS.
22 Commissioner Tillman stated that she hopes that they continue to get public.input regarding the
23 electronic sign.
24
25 Commissioner Hanson stated that Hanson's Gifts opened in the Shopping Mall.
26
27 Commissioner Hanson also indicated that he received a tour of the Crossroads Fitness Center by
28 Mr. Tedlund, and indicated it is a very high-class Fitness Center. He added that they were
29 aiming for a July 1, 2001 opening date.
30
31 Commissioner Hanson asked what was decided by the City Council on the Stonehouse.
32 Commissioner Thomas indicated that they decided that they want to have a plan in place, should
33 it need to be shut down.
34
35 Vice Chair Stille stated that he was proud of the Commission in relation to the sign discussion
36 that took place earlier in the evening, and that they did not take the easy way out.
37
