MEMORANDUM
DATE: April 16, 2002
TO: City Council
FROM: Mike Mornson, City Manager
ITEM: 2003 GENERAL FUND BUDGET
The preparation of the City's annual budget begins with a public hearing to discuss the
goals and objectives for the upcoming year. Because of levy limits and potential
reductions in LGA, the preparation of the 2003 budget will be especially challenging.
The 2001 budget has been audited with the following results:
Budget Actual Reserves
Revenues $3,519,875 $3,542,107 $22,232
Expenditures $3,519,875 $3,475,924 $43,951
$ 66,183
The 2002 General Fund budget at$3,626,500 is 4.3% higher than the actual expenditures
for 2001 ($3,475,924).
Challenges for the upcoming year will be:
1) Preparing the 2003 budget with levy limit constraints.
2) Reserves/contingency dollars are no longer a budgeted
line item.(eliminated in 2002).
3) Further LGA/HACA reductions could impact
basic City services (potential cuts could =$200,000)
4) The funding of Capital equipment purchases.
For Council's review I have included a summary of the 2002 budget and the actual
expenditures from 2001.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: 04/10/02 MEETING DATE: 04/16/02
TO: Planning Commission Members.
FROM: Susan Henry, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: 3645 Chelmsford Road Subdivision Request
Requested Action:
Troy Martenson, property owner of the single-family residential lot at 3645 Chelmsford
Road, is requesting a lot split.
Background:
Mr. Martenson contacted city staff several months ago about the feasibility of splitting
the single-family residential property at 3645 Chelmsford. Because of the lack of details
and sufficient information, staff recommended to him to get a survey completed. Staff
also noted to Mr. Martenson that he needed to be the property owner when bringing the
subdivision request forward. Since that time, the survey has been completed and Mr.
Martensen has closed on the property. Staff has requested proof of ownership
paperwork but has not yet received the documentation, like.a purchase agreement or
deed.
The survey submitted by Mr. Martenson depicts two parcels: A and B. Parcel A is drawn
to be a substandard lot of 6,420 square feet. Once the lot is split as proposed, Parcel A
would become the interior lot. According to city code, interior lots are to be a minimum of
9,000 square feet or less than 75 feet in width at the building setback line.
Parcel B is drawn to be 17,120 square feet, which needs to be a minimum of 11,000
square feet, or less than 90 square feet in width at the building setback line, to meet city
code requirements; this drawn parcel far exceeds that standard.
Parcel B's setbacks are not written to city code in relation to the proposed building
shown on the survey. The minimum rear yard must have a depth equal to the greater of
20% of the depth of the entire lot or 25 feet; the survey shows 13 feet. The minimum
front yard must have a depth equal to the greater of 30 feet or a distance equal to the
average of the front yard depths of the two adjacent lots; the survey shows 26 feet. It
should be noted that Parcel A does not meet some of city code minimum standards;
however, this is the parcel with the existing home and detached garage.
The total square footage of the subject property is 23,540 (107 X 220) square feet.
Although this is enough square footage to technically split the property into two, it is not
all-usable square footage due to the easements on the property. Mr. Martenson did not
know of the easements until after he acquired the property and the survey was
completed. Prior to the April 16 Planning Commission meeting, he plans to check with
Northern States Power on the details about the 75 foot overhead lines easement.
24
Mr. Martenson and Pioneer Engineering, the surveyor, both received copies of the City's
ordinance as it pertains to the single-family zoning district and subdivision of land.
Prior to receiving the survey and when in discussions with city staff about the lot split,
Mr. Martenson's sketches on a city plat map showed Parcel A at 9,095 square feet and
Parcel B at 14,445 square feet (see attached).
City staff offered to meet and discuss the subdivision request in relation to the city code
with the applicant. He said he wanted to wait until after the April 16 public hearing.
Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends denial of the lot subdivision because it does not meet minimum lot
standards nor does it meet the setbacks required by city ordinance. By approving this lot
split, the City would be approving a substandard lot (Parcel A). Mr. Martenson is aware
of staffs recommendation and is looking for direction on how he might proceed in
working with the City to redevelop the property.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: 04/10/02 MEETING DATE: 04/16/02
TO: Planning Commission Members
FROM: Susan Henry, Assistant City ManagerXk,
SUBJECT: Apache Animal Medicine Sign Variance Request
Requested Action:
Apache Animal Medicine, P.A., owner of the commercially zoned property at 2501 37th
Avenue Northeast, is requesting a sign variance for an additional ground sign.
Background:
Apache Animal Medicine currently has one ground sign that was installed earlier this
year (see attached sign permit). They are asking for another ground sign for
identification purposes because of two distinct businesses located in one building. This
request requires a variance because city code states that one principal structure of a
parcel of land is allowed one ground sign, regardless of the number of tenants in the
building.
Apache Animal Medicine states an additional ground sign would relieve an undue
hardship and correct extraordinary circumstances. In particular, the applicant points to
preexisting setbacks and the railroad, forcing two entrances. Also the applicant
mentions the need to maintain separation between healthy pets (Apache Grooming and
Boarding) and potentially ill pets (Apache Animal Hospital) with two entrances. Finally,
the applicant states they want to be able to clearly tell clients where the entrances are
with safety concerns regarding traffic on 37th Avenue.
According to city code, ground signs must be affixed to the ground by means of a base
with no visibility between the bottom of the sign and the base on which it is attached,
and landscaped to enhance the appearance of the signage. Currently, the sign is open
as drawn and city staff has asked the applicant to fill in the gap, as code requires.
Staff Recommendation:
Staff recommends approval of the variance request/additional ground sign on the
contingency that the current sign on the property be brought up to city code by filling in
the gap between the bottom of the sign and the base to which it is attached with agreed
upon materials. The second ground sign approved with this variance should be built
identically to the first sign. In addition, the applicant must meet all other code
requirements as it relates to ground signs.

Minnesota Statutes and City Ordinances require that the following conditions must be satisfied
for approval of this request. Please respond to these conditions using additional sheets if
necessary.
1. Because of the particular physical surroundings, shape, or topographical conditions of
the parcel or lot, the proposed variance would relieve an undue hardship, as
distinguished from a mere inconvenience, should the applicable ordinance be strictly
enforced.
2. The purpose of the proposed variance is not based exclusively upon a desire to increase
the value or income potential of the parcel of land, but would correct extraordinary
circumstances applicable to this property but not applicable to other property in the
vicinity or zoning district.
3. The alleged difficulty or hardship is caused by the City Ordinance and has not been
created by any persons presently having an interest in the parcel of land.

As the owner of Apache Animal Hospital, I would like to request a variance in the city
code to allow us to have two monument signs associated with our building. I believe we
meet the specified
conditions as outlined below. -
1. Relieve an undue hardship
-- Apache Animal Hospital is 160 feet long and we have approximately 500 feet
of frontage on 37`h Avenue. Our two parking lots are 225 feet apart. In order
for our clients to know which lot to park in, we would like two signs to clearly
mark each end of the building.
-- While planning the expansion of our building, we encountered difficulty with the
layout due to the railroad along the north side and'the new setback requirements.
Due to these factors, we needed to lay the clinic out with two separate entrances
and parking lots. One entrance would be for hospital patients and the other for
patients needing grooming or boarding. Without the separate entrances and parking
lots, we would not have adequate parking for clients and staff according to city
requirements.
-- The two monument signs are necessary to alleviate confusion for our clients.
For 27 years, our hospital entrance has been on the west side of the building.
The new entrance for the hospital will be on the east side, and the current entrance
will become the entrance for grooming and boarding.
-- A large percentage of our clientele are senior citizens and we don't want them to
accidentally go to the wrong entrance, then have to get in their car and pull onto
37`h avenue to get to the other lot. Two signs that can be easily seen from the street
would alleviate this problem.
2. Correct extraordinary circumstances
-- As a hospital that also provides grooming and boarding, we don't want healthy
animals that are coming for boarding and grooming to be exposed to potentially
ill animals waiting to be seen at the hospital. That is another reason why we
designed the building with two entrances. We would need to have separate sigh to
help inform clients which entrance they needed based on the service they required.
33
3. Caused by the City Ordinance
-- The ordinance allowing only one sign per building will cause a lot of confusion for
our clientele. We have approximately 13, 000 clients who would probably
automatically go to our"old" entrance without a sign that clearly labeled the
difference.
-- We are also concerned for client safety. If a client pulled into the wrong parking
lot, realized their error, and then pulled back onto 37`' Avenue to drive 225 feet
_ to the-next lot, they could very easily be rea_r_en_ded by traffic as 37`' Avenue is a
very busy street. -
In closing, I believe we meet the criteria for a variance based on the fact that we were
limited on our building design by preexisting setbacks and the railroad, forcing us to
create to entrances; we need to maintain separation between healthy pets and potentially
ill pets with two entrances; our clients need to be able to clearly tell where they need to
enter the building; and to help eliminate safety concerns regarding traffic on 37`h Avenue.
Thank you for your time and consideration in this matter.

It is our understanding that St. Anthony Village purchased the property with TIF.generated.
revenue from an approved budget within an existing pre-1990 district to assist this project.
Based on this information Ehlers recommends the following:
1. The Business Subsidy Statutes (I 16J.993 Subd.3.17) provides that financial assistance is
not a subsidy when the recipients's investment in the purchase of the site and in site
preparation is 70% or more of the assessor's current estimated market value (EMV). The
site includes two parcels. The combined EMV for the parcels is $372,100. The
investment to purchase and prepare the site clearly exceed 70% of this value. Therefore,
the assistance provided would not be subject to the Business Subsidy Statutes.
2. Culver's is responsible for demolition of the Hardee's building.
3. The agreement recording the assistance should include a requirement that Culver's
document the expenses including acquisition, demolition and environmental clean up,
4. If the property is sold within one year the full amount of the assistance shall be repaid to
the City.
5. In order for the owner to secure construction financing it will be necessary to convey the
land prior to building completion. Therefore, the agreement conveying the land should
include some type of security to assure building completion.

Dear Mike,
You will find.our purchase-offer for the-"Hardees"-property.- We-hope-this-will-be
accepted by the council. We are very excited about the possibility of a Culver's in St.
Anthony. We feel it would be a win/win situation for us, as small business owners,as
well as the community.
Culver's is a quick serve family restaurant. Several copies of our menu are attached for
your disbursement to the appropriate parties. Our hours of operation are 10:30am to
10:pm everyday. We do not serve liquor.
Our proposed land and building investment will be approximately$1,250,000, with
equipment and inventory accounting for an additional $400,000. We will provide jobs for
60-70 employees, which represents approximately 30 full time job equivalents, not to
mention many "first job" opportunities for the area high school aged youth. We are
estimating first year sales of$2,100,000.
These are the tangible facts about our Culvers restaurant. In addition, we pride ourselves
on our community involvement, including our support of school programs, youth sports,
churches, city festivals etc. Community involvement is a very high priority for us.
We hope we've provided the initial background information you need. We look forward
to working with you. Please contact us with any other information you may need.

RE: Engineer's Report for April 23, 2001
WSB Project No. 1065-01
Dear Honorable Mayor, City Council, and City Staff:
This letter is intended to provide you with an update on the current status of projects that
are ongoing within the village. Outlined below, please find a list of projects and the
current status of each:
I. Silver Lane Flood Improvements Feasibility Report
A draft of the Silver Lane Flood Improvements Feasibility Report has been
completed and is currently being reviewed with the City of New Brighton and the
Rice Creek Watershed District. It is anticipated that this report will be presented to
the City Council in May.
II. 2001 Street Reconstruction and Harding Street Pond Project
There are a number of remaining items to be completed in the 2001 Street
Reconstruction project. These items include:
• Driveway replacement on 30`h Avenue
• Yard restoration on 30`h Avenue
• Second lift of asphalt on Wilson Street, West Armor Terrace, and 30`h Avenue
It is anticipated this work would be completed by the end of June 2002.
III. 2002 Street Reconstruction Project
The preconstruction meeting for the 2002 Street Reconstruction project with the
4150 Olson contractor and City representatives is scheduled for April 18`h. At this meeting the
Memorial Highway contractor will provide the City with a schedule for the anticipated activities of the
2002 Street Reconstruction project. We anticipate this project starting at the
Suite 300 beginnin�of May. The first construction newsletter will be sent out following the
Minneapolis April 18` preconstruction meeting to all of the residents along the project.

IV. Infiltration and Inflow Educational Program
Two meetings have been held for the sump pump separation and drain tile
separation educational program. Attached for your review are a map of the City of
St. Anthony and the list of meeting dates for each of the remaining areas. This
program is being completed-as-part-of ari agreement-with-Metropolitan Council to-
reduce the City's inflow of clear water from sump pumps and drain tiles into the
sanitary sewer system. By the end of May we will have completed the educational
component of that agreement.
V. Minnesota Department of Natural Resources Grant Update
Both the House and Senate have completed their bonding bill allocations and now
the Conference Committee must meet to work out the differences in the two bills.
In regards to St. Anthony and the flood hazard mitigation grant program there is
some language currently within the House bill, which is unfavorable to the City of
St. Anthony. The House bill prioritizes all the flood hazard mitigation grant
projects and places St. Anthony near the bottom of their list. However, we are still
hopeful that during the committee process this language will be stricken from the
bill. This funding will be used to complete the replacement of the warming house
at Silver Point Park and to construct flood improvements at Shamrock and Silver
Lane.
VI. Street Reconstruction Capital Improvement Plan
Attached please find a map of the anticipated Capital Improvement Program for the
street reconstruction projects within the Village. This map is subject to change due
to budgetary limits or if some of these roads deteriorate more rapidly than
anticipated.
VII. Water and Wastewater Needs Study
The City of St. Anthony is considering the redevelopment of Apache Plaza and the
southern shopping center areas. To determine the impact of this new development
on the City's water and wastewater systems, it is necessary to complete a water and
waste water needs assessment.
This study will evaluate the water needs associated with adding between 400 and
700 new housing units in the Apache Plaza area and determine if adding additional
housing units in the St. Anthony shopping center area on the south end of the
Village will have an adverse impact on water supply. This study will identify the
needs and also the necessary improvements to accommodate the additional housing
units.

The wastewater portion of the needs study will evaluate the capacity of the existing
Foss Road lift station and the trunk sanitary system which serves Apache Plaza:
The study will outline any necessary improvements to the Foss Road lift station and
this wastewater conveyance system to accommodate between 400 and 700 units on
the Apache Plaza parcel.
This study will also look at the wastewater system south of 27`h Avenue. Based on
televising reports it appears that the system is reaching its maximum service life
and will need to be replaced in the very near future. This study will identify which
type of improvements would be necessary.
The water and wastewater needs study is proposed to be completed for$48,500 and
a resolution for your consideration is attached.
VIII. 2001 Flood Improvement Grant Program
There are a few homeowners who were unable to complete a flood improvement
project in 2001. We will continue to work with these homeowners to complete
those projects early this summer.
IX. Silver Point Park
The rain and snow in November prevented the grading and seeding contractors
from completing their work in the park. We anticipate installing additional drain
tile in the west side of the park to improve drainage and complete finish grading as
soon as conditions allow. Hydroseeding on the east field is anticipated to occur
during the week of April 22nd
I will be present at your April 23rd Council meeting to discuss these projects and answer
any questions you may have, or please feel free to call me at(763) 287-7182.
Sincerely,
WSB & Associates, Inc.

W Date: April 17, 2002
Subject: Pratt Ordway Preliminary.Development Agreement
Attached is the preliminary development agreement with Pratt Ordway for the Northwest
Quadrant redevelopment agreement project. The primary purpose of the agreement is to
provide assurances that the city will not assist other developers during the time that.the
developer and the city are negotiating the final development agreement. The agreement
specifically accomplishes the following:.
1. Provides that the City will not enter into an agreement with other developers to assist
with land assembly or provide financial assistance for properties within the
redevelopment project area during the term of this agreement. This is in essence an
"exclusive"rights agreement. It does not prevent property owners within the project
area from selling or improving their property.
2. The project area as defined will exclude the Exhaust Pro's and the Hardee's site
being developed by Culvers and also excludes the Equinox Apartments.
3. The agreement, in its,current form, allows the city to terminate the agreement if the
developer is not pursuing the redevelopment with due diligence.
4. The developer agrees to deposit$75,000 reimburse the city for costs related to
project costs including financial, legal and planning services.
5. Establishes a time period of one year or the approval of a final development
agreement, whichever occurs first. During this time the developer and the City will
essentially be negotiating a final development agreement. The issues in the final
development agreement include project timing, land use approval process, project
financing, financial assistan ce, land assembly and project timing.
It is important to note that this preliminary agreement does not provide any land use
approvals nor does it extend any assurances that financial assistance will be provided. It
does forecast that the developer has the right to request assistance. Entering this agreement
does not assure that development will occur.

Subject: Culver's Request for Assistance
Date: April 9, 2002
Ehlers &Associates has completed a review of the request for assistance with the development
of the Culver's restaurant on the site of the former Hardee's restaurant and the Exhaust Pro's
building on Silver Lake Road. Julie Chien and Steve Sparks are the applicants and would own
the restaurant at this location. They have represented that assistance is necessary due to
extraordinary development cost including site acquisition,relocation, site preparation and
demolition. These expenses are considered qualified redevelopment expenses.
The assistance requested is the sale of the City owned Hardee's site, cleared for development by
the City for$5,000. The City has purchased this site for$319,00,000. Culver's has extended an
offer to purchase the Exhaust Pro's site for$335,000.
The applicants have provided Ehlers with a project pro forma for this development including
estimated land costs. The project pro forma includes estimated land acquisition of$654,000 for
a site of 58,750 square feet. This represents a land cost of$11.13/square foot. Project costs
appear to be reasonably estimated, based on a review of similar projects by other developers.
The applicants report the rate of return for this project without assistance would be 4%and with
assistance of$314,000 land write down the rate of return would be 11.6%. A typical rate of
return for this type of project would be 12%to14%. This information and analysis supports the
use of assistance. Ehlers did review this information provided by the applicants. However, since
the property will be owned by the applicants a typical rate of return analysis Ehlers did not rely
solely on this rate of return analysis.
As substitute measure on need, Ehlers reviewed the land cost for this type of development with
other similar developments. Generally, it appears that businesses of this nature would support a
land cost of approximately$5.50 - $6.00/square foot for land. The applicants have provided
Ehlers with a project pro forma for this development including estimated land costs. The project
pro forma includes estimated land assembly related cost of$654,500 for a site of 58,750 square
feet. This represents a land cost of$11.13/square foot which is significantly higher that the
typical land cost for this type of development. If assistance is provided the effective cost of land
is estimated at$5.79/square foot. Therefore,the assistance requested will provide for a land
payment within the range developers typically pay for land for this type of use.

It is our understanding that St. Anthony Village purchased the property with TIF generated
revenue from an approved budget within an existing pre-1990 district to assist this project.
Based on this information Ehlers recommends the following:
1. The Business Subsidy Statutes (I 16J.993 Subd.3.17)provides that financial assistance is
not a subsidy when the recipients's investment in the purchase of the site and in site
preparation is 70% or more of the assessor's current estimated market value(EMV). The
site includes two parcels. The combined EMV for the parcels is $372,100. The
investment to purchase and prepare the site clearly exceed 70% of this value. Therefore,
the assistance provided would not,be subject to the Business Subsidy Statutes.
2. Culver's is responsible for demolition of the Hardee's building.
3. The agreement recording the assistance should include a requirement that Culver's
document the expenses including acquisition, demolition and environmental clean up,
4. If the property is sold within one year the full amount of the assistance shall be repaid to
the City.
5. In order for the owner to secure construction financing it will be necessary to convey the
land prior to building completion. Therefore; the agreement conveying the land should
include some type of security to assure building completion.

Dear Mike,
You will find our purchase offer for the "Hardees" property. We hope this will be
accepted by the council. We are very excited about the possibility of a Culver's in St.
Anthony. We feel it would be a win/win situation for us,as small business owners,as
well as the community.
Culver's is a quick serve family restaurant. Several copies of our menu are attached for
your disbursement to the appropriate parties. Our hours of operation are 10:30am to
10:pm everyday. We do not serve liquor.
Our proposed land and building investment will be approximately$1,250,000,.with
equipment and inventory accounting for an additional $400,000. We will provide jobs for
60-70 employees, which represents approximately 30 full time job equivalents, not to
mention many "first job" opportunities for the area high school aged youth. We are
estimating first year sales of$2,100,000.
These are the tangible facts about our Culvers restaurant. In addition, we pride ourselves
on our community involvement, including our support of school programs, youth sports,
churches, city festivals etc. Community involvement is a very high priority for us.
We hope we've provided the initial background information you need. We look forward
to working with you. Please contact us with any other information you may need.

G Subject: Key Financial Strategies Session 3
Attached are the materials related to Key Financial Strategies (KFS) Session 3. This session
will focus on the following issues:
1. Review of the budget forecast worksheet. The worksheet will focus primarily on
projections of current level of operations and capital needs. This spreadsheet will
forecast a"gap"between revenues and potential expenditures. It has been prepared
based on input from your staff. It is most important to review the information to
determine that potential needs have been identified in the projections.
The basis of KFS is to anticipate needs and begin to develop strategies to permit
funding needs on a timely basis. As part of this process the City Council will be
encouraged to "brainstorm" additional needs for future years consideration.
2. Review KFS options. The KFS options include strategies, resources and outcomes.
An initial analysis of KFS options has been prepared based in input from your staff.
These options will be reviewed with the Council. Again the Council will be
encouraged to add other options for consideration.
Based on the input received at this session a specific set of strategies and timetable will be
developed for KFS Session 4. These strategies will be directed at enabling the City to
forecast future operating and capital needs and develop practical strategies to meet those
needs on an annual basis.

Re: St. Anthony Village Redevelopment Project
Dear Mike:
First of all, our apologies for not getting an update to you earlier. The Legislative session
has been taking longer than anticipated and has kept us busy at the Capitol. We did want to get you
a quick update on some of the different funding sources that we have been exploring:
1) Department of Trade and Economic Development
The Department of Trade and Economic Development has several opportunities that we
are exploring. Included are Economic Development and Housing challenge grants, Small
Cities Development Program- including public facility grants and gap financing.
2) Department of Transportation
We are looking into applying for funds through the Department of Transportation and the
DOT's Metropolitan Division. We will be in communication with them to explore funding
sources from both the state and the federal governments.
3) Minnesota Housing Finance Agency
The Minnesota Housing Agency has both Single family and multifamily grant programs that
we have been exploring. The single family housing programs include Community
Revitalization funds and pipeline programs that we can plug into. Multifamily initiatives
include the Family Housing Fund, Economic Vitality and Housing Initiatives and a
consolidated Multifamily RFP process. We will work with the Minnesota Family Housing
Finance Agency to pinpoint the programs that would make the most sense for St. Anthony
Village.

4) Metropolitan Council
The Met Council has a wide variety of resources that the redevelopment project could qualify
for including: Metropolitan Housing and Redevelopment Authority Grants, Tax Base
Revitalization Account Grants and Livable Communities Grants. There are also
opportunities to partner with the Metropolitan Council on transportation opportunities
including transit. We will work with the Met Council to identify the grants and programs
best,suited to Your project.
We have had discussions with our in-house real estate redevelopment attorneys about your
plans and additional opportunities for us to explore. They have provided us with suggestions and
will provide feedback as this project progresses. We are additionally going to talk to Ramsey
County and Hennepin County officials to explore applicable programs and funds that are available
through them. There are a few state grant programs which are dependent on Legislative action this
session and we will keeping an eye on those as the Legislature wraps up. We will get you more
complete details on specific programs that we have targeted for the redevelopment project in the next
few weeks. Please let us know of any questions or suggestions that you may have in the meantime.
Take care.
Sincerely,
LOCKRIDGE GRINDAL NAUEN P.L.L.P.

Subject: Pratt Ordway Preliminary Development Agreement
Attached is the preliminary development agreement with Pratt Ordway for the Northwest
Quadrant redevelopment agreement project. The primary purpose of the agreement is to
provide assurances that the city will not assist other developers during the time that the
developer and the city are negotiating the final development agreement. The agreement
specifically accomplishes the following:
1. Provides that the City will not enter into an agreement with other developers to assist
with land assembly or provide financial assistance for properties within the
redevelopment project area during the'term of this agreement. This is in essence an
"exclusive"rights agreement. It does not prevent property owners within the project
area from selling or improving their property.
2. The project area as defined will exclude the Exhaust Pro's and the.Hardee's site
being developed by Culvers and also excludes the Equinox Apartments.
3. The agreement, in its current form, allows the city to terminate the agreement if the
developer is not pursuing the redevelopment with due diligence.
4. The developer agrees to deposit$75,000 reimburse the city for costs related to
project costs including financial, legal and planning services.
5. Establishes a time period of one year or the approval of a final development
agreement, whichever occurs first. During this time the developer and the City will
essentially be negotiating a final development agreement. The issues in the final
development agreement include project timing, land use approval process, project
financing, financial assistance;land assembly and project timing.
It is important to note that this preliminary agreement does not provide any land use
approvals nor does it extend any assurances that f nancial assistance will be provided. It
does forecast that the developer has the right to request assistance. Entering this agreement
does not assure that development will occur.

Subject: Culver's Request for Assistance
Date: April 9, 2002
Ehlers &Associates has completed a review of the request for assistance with the development
of the Culver's restaurant on the site of the former Hardee's restaurant and the Exhaust Pro's
building on Silver Lake Road. Julie Chien and Steve Sparks are the applicants and would own
the restaurant at this location. They have represented that assistance is necessary due to
extraordinary development cost including site acquisition,relocation, site preparation and
demolition. These expenses are considered qualified redevelopment expenses.
The assistance requested is the sale of the City owned Hardee's site, cleared for development by
the City for$5,000. The City has purchased this site for$319,00,000. Culver's has extended an
offer to purchase the Exhaust Pro's site for$335,000.
The applicants have provided Ehlers with a project pro forma for this development including
estimated land costs. The project pro forma includes estimated land acquisition of$654,000 for
a site of 58,750 square feet. This represents a land cost of$11.13/square foot. Project costs
appear to be reasonably estimated, based on a review of similar projects by other developers.
The applicants report the rate of return for this project without assistance would be 4% and with
assistance of$314,000 land write down the rate of return would be 11.6%. A typical rate of
return for this type of project would be 12% to 14%. This information and analysis supports the
use of assistance. Ehlers did review this information provided by the applicants. However, since
the property will be owned by the applicants a typical rate of return analysis Ehlers did not rely
solely on this rate of return analysis.
As substitute measure on need, Ehlers reviewed the land cost for.this type of development with
other similar developments. Generally, it appears that businesses of this nature would support a
land cost of approximately$5.50 - $6.00/square foot for land. The applicants have provided
Ehlers with a project pro forma for this development including estimated land costs. The project
pro forma includes estimated land assembly related cost of$654,500 for a site of 58,750 square
feet. This represents a land cost of$11.13/square foot which is significantly higher that the
typical land cost for this type of development. If assistance is provided the effective cost of land
is estimated at$5.79/square foot. Therefore, the assistance requested will provide for a land
payment within the range developers typically pay for land for this type of use.

47 Chair Melsha opened the public hearing at 7:09 p.m.
48
49 Susan Henry stated that Troy Martenson, property owner of the single-family residential
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes
April 16, 2002
Page 2
1 lot at 3645 Chelmsford Road, is requesting a lot split. She explained that Mr. Martenson
2 contacted city staff several months ago about the feasibility of splitting the single-family
3 residential property at 3645 Chelmsford. Because of the lack of details and sufficient
4 information, staff recommended.he get a survey completed. Staff also noted to Mr. .
5 Martenson that he needed to be the property owner when bringing the subdivision request
6 forward. Since that time, the survey has been completed and Mr. Martenson has closed
7 on the property. Staff has requested proof of ownership paperwork but has not yet
8 received the documentation, like.a purchase agreement or deed.
9
10 Henry reviewed the survey submitted by Mr. Martenson that depicts two parcels: A and
1 1 B. Parcel A is drawn to be a substandard lot of 6,420 square feet. Once the lot is split as
12 proposed, Parcel A would become the interior lot. According to city code, interior lots
13 are to be a minimum of 9,000 square feet or less than 75 feet in width at the building
14 setback line.
15
16 Henry noted that Parcel B is drawn to be 17,120 square feet, which needs to be a
17 minimum of 11,000 square feet, or less than 90 square feet in width at the building
18 setback line, to meet city code requirements; this drawn parcel far exceeds that standard.
19 Parcel B's setbacks are not written to City code in relation to the proposed building
20 shown on the survey. The minimum rear yard must have a depth equal to the greater of
21 20% of the depth of the entire lot or 25 feet; the survey shows 13 feet. The minimum
22 front yard must have a depth equal to the greater of 30 feet or a distance equal to the
23 average of the front yard depths of the- two adjacent lots; the survey shows 26 feet.
24 Henry noted that Parcel A does not meet some of City code minimum standards;
25 however, this is the parcel with the existing home and detached garage.
26
27 Henry indicated the total square footage of the subject property is 23,540 (107 X 220)
28 square feet. Although this is enough square footage to technically split the property into
29 two, it is not all-usable square footage due to the easements on the property. Mr.
30 Martenson did not know of the easements until after he acquired the property and the
31 survey was completed. Prior to the April 16 Planning Commission meeting, he plans to
32 check with Northern States Power on the details about the 75 foot overhead lines
33 easement. She advised that Mr. Martenson and Pioneer Engineering, the surveyor, both
34 received copies of the City's ordinance as it pertains to the single-family zoning district
35 - and subdivision of land.
36
37 Henry explained that prior to receiving the survey and when in discussions with City staff
38 about the lot split, Mr. Martenson's sketches on a City plat map showed Parcel A at
39 9,095 square feet and Parcel B at 14,445 square feet. City staff offered to meet and
40 discuss the subdivision request in relation to the city code with the applicant. He said he
41 wanted to wait until after the April 16 public hearing.
42
43 Henry stated staff recommends denial of the lot subdivision because it does not meet
44 minimum lot standards nor does it meet the setbacks required by city ordinance. By
45 approving this lot split, the City would be approving a substandard lot (Parcel A). She
46 indicated Mr. Martenson is aware of staff s recommendation and is looking for direction
47 on how he might proceed in working with the City to redevelop the property.

2 Troy Martenson, 3645 Chelmsford Road, indicated he was unaware of a 75 foot NSP
3 easement through the back of his property. He stated he may now propose to tear down
4 the single-family home to rebuild townhomes, as he is not going to be able to subdivide
5 the lot and meet the square footage requirements.
6
7 Commissioner Thomas questioned if Mr. Martenson was going to build an additional
8 single family home or duplex on Parcel B. Mr. Martenson stated this was his original
9 plan as he is currently renting a home on Parcel A.
10
11 Chair Melsha asked if the proposed building on Parcel B could be smaller. Mr.
12 Martenson indicated this could be done, but noted the lot split was the first part of this
13 process. He noted a single family home or duplex could be proposed for this site.
14
15 Commissioner Tillman asked if Parcel,A was in conformance as suggested by the
16 applicant. Henry stated Parcel A doesn't meet City code at this time with the rear yard
17 setback. Commissioner Tillman added that Parcel A was too small and the proposed
18 building on Parcel B did not meet the City setbacks.
19
20 Commissioner Steeves noted the layout of the building on Parcel B could be modified to
21 meet City specifications. He added that if the structure were more rectangular in shape it
22 would fit on the lot with a driveway over the NSP easement.
23
24 Chair Melsha suggested Mr. Martenson work with City staff on a plan for this structure
25 before the lot split is approved to see if there is a compromise requiring fewer variances.
26
27 Mr. Martenson asked if he could create an irregular Parcel A to meet the 9,000 square
28 foot limit. Henry stated she would not recommend an irregular lot be created.
29
30 Commissioner Hanson asked if the existing single family home could be remodeled. Mr.
31 Martenson stated the existing structure was extremely old and would not be fit for an
32 addition. He indicated he would be more in favor of removing the existing home to build
33 one that suits his needs.
34
35 Vice Chair Stille recommend removing the existing structure on Parcel A to build a
36 single-family home or duplex that meets his needs on the entire lot. Mr. Martenson
37 indicated he would rethink his plan and visit with staff in the near future.
38
39 Chair Melsha closed the public hearing at 7:25 p.m.
40
41 Commission Hanson agreed with Vice Chair Stille's comments to have the applicant
42 place a duplex or triplex on this lot with the removal of the existing structure.
43
44 Motion by Commissioner Steeves, second by Commissioner Hoska, to recommend denial
45 of the lot subdivision because it does not meet minimum lot standards nor does it meet
46 the setbacks required by City ordinance and based on the rationale that by approving this
47 lot split, the City would be approving a substandard lot(Parcel A), remembering that the
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes
April 16, 2002

1 Commission would seek further input from this applicant in the future.

3 Motion carried unanimously.

5 8.2 Apache Animal Medicine, P.A. 250137'4 Avenue NE: sign variance request for one
6 additional ground sign.
7 Chair Melsha opened the public hearing at 7:27 p.m.
8
9 Susan Henry stated that Apache Animal Medicine, P.A., owner of the commercially
10 zoned property at 2501 37`x' Avenue Northeast, is requesting a sign variance for an
11 additional ground sign. She noted that Apache Animal Medicine currently has one
12 ground sign that was installed earlier this year. They are asking for another ground sign
13 for identification purposes because of two distinct businesses located in one building.
14 This request requires a variance because City code states that one principal structure of a
15 parcel of land is allowed one ground sign, regardless of the number of tenants in the
16 building.
17
18 Henry explained that Apache Animal Medicine states an additional ground sign would
19 relieve an undue hardship and correct extraordinary circumstances. In particular, the
20 applicant points to preexisting setbacks and the railroad, forcing two entrances. Also the
21 applicant mentions the need to maintain separation between healthy pets (Apache
22 Grooming 'and Boarding) and potentially ill pets (Apache Animal Hospital) with two
23 entrances. Finally, the applicant states they want to be able to clearly tell clients where
24 the entrances are with safety concerns regarding traffic on 37`h Avenue.
25
26 Henry advised that according to City code, ground signs must be affixed to the ground by
27 means of a base with no visibility between the bottom of the sign and the base on which
28 it is attached, and landscaped to enhance the appearance of the signage. The sign was
29 originally open, as drawn on the plans, and city staff asked the applicant to fill in the gap,
30 as code requires.Since that time the applicant has taken care of this.
31
32 Henry recommended approval of the variance request/additional ground sign on the
33 contingency that the current sign on the property be brought up to city code by filling in
34 the gap between the bottom of the sign and the base to which it is attached with agreed
35 upon materials. The second ground sign approved with this variance should be built
36 identically to the first sign. In addition, the applicant must meet all other code
37 requirements as it relates to ground signs.
38
39 Ray Ogrin, representative for Apache Animal Medicine, thanked Ms. Henry for her
40 presentation. He noted they are requesting these signs to present a clear separation
41 between the healthy and sick animals to this site. Mr. Ogrin stated this would help
42 resolve traffic issues along 37' Avenue as well.
43
44 Commissioner Steeves asked how much sign area was allowed for a building this size.
45 Henry stated up to 64 square feet was allowed on this site and noted they were requesting
46 a 48 square foot sign as a part of the per ground additional sign/variance.
47
Planning Commission Meeting Minutes
April 16, 2002
Page 5
1 Chair Melsha questioned the distance between the two signs. Mr. Ogrin indicated there
2 would be approximately 370 feet between the signs as proposed.
3
4 Commissioner Thomas stated he felt this was a reasonable request to have signage at
5 each parking lot entrance.
6
7 Chair Melsha closed the public hearing at 7:37 p.m.
8
9 Chair Melsha agreed that this was a reasonable request. Vice Chair Stille stated the two
10 entrances to the building and two separate parking lots creates a uniqueness on this lot.
1.1
12 Commissioner Thomas stated this was also for the safety of the animals and traffic along
13 37`h Avenue.
14
15 Motion by Commissioner Thomas, second by Commissioner Tillman, to recommend
16 approval of the variance request/additional ground sign on the contingency that the
17 second ground sign approved with this variance should be built identically to the first
18 sign. In addition, the applicant must meet all other code requirements as it relates to
19 ground signs, with the second sign to be the same dimensions and color as the first.
20
21 Motion carried unanimously.
22
23 IX. INFORMATION AND DISCUSSION.
24 9.1 Preliminary Site Plan for Culvers Restaurant, 4000 Block of Silver Lake Road.
25 Susan Henry indicated that the City has been working on an agreement with the owners
26 of Culvers Restaurant in Vadnais Heights to develop the former Hardees site, now City-
27 owned, at 4004 Silver Lake Road into a Culvers Restaurant for St. Anthony. Culvers
28 representatives have been negotiating with Exhaust Pros for their site at 4002 Silver Lake
29 Road. Their plan is to eventually combine the two parcels into one once they close on the
30 Exhaust Pros property in mid May. She noted Steve Sparks would be presenting a plan
31 to the Commissioners.
32
33 The restaurant seating is planned for 160 people. The proposed hours of operation are
34 from 10:30 a.m. until 10:30 p.m.- Culvers representatives are aware of the Northwest
35 Quadrant Redevelopment Plan and have been in communication with Len Pratt. Both
36 parties agree it is imperative to tie the new Culvers Restaurant to the Apache
37 area redevelopment effort.
38
39 Henry explained that at this point, Culvers representatives want to share their preliminary
40 plans for the 4000 Block of Silver Lake Road with the Planning Commission. Culvers
41 representatives are planning to be back to the May or June Planning Commission meeting
42 with final development plans and the public-hearing.

1 assists in keeping the stores flourishing. Mr. Sparks noted Culvers is a family-style
2 restaurant with a great menu.
3
4 Chair Melsha asked how Culvers differed from other fast food stores. Mr. Sparks stated
5 it is a quick-style family restaurant. He noted all orders were made to order with drive
6 through orders being met in four minutes or less.
7
8 Mr. Sparks explained that when orders are placed inside,people are able to sit and their
9 food is brought out to them. He noted this restaurant is much more home-like, falling
10 somewhere between McDonalds and Applebee's,with no tip. Mr. Sparks explained it
11 would meet a need in this area for a family style restaurant other than Champ's. He
12 stated the menu is not trendy, it offers a wide variety of food with frozen custard to round
13 out the concept and add depth to the menu. Mr. Sparks indicated this wide variety assists
14 in keeping Culvers viable.
15
16 Commissioner Thomas questioned how the typical seating was in a Culvers Restaurant.
17 Mr. Sparks stated 120 people is the norm for a Culvers Restaurants, where he is
18 proposing 160 seats. He noted in speaking with City staff about the Hardees site,there
19 would be adequate parking for this building if the seating were bumped up to 160. Mr.
20 Sparks stated the additional seating could be used for business meetings,birthday parties,
21 etc.
22
23 Commissioner Thomas indicated the site is in a planned unit development and will have
24 some similar design standards that will have to be met. He questioned if Culvers was
25 willing to meet these design standards, or even to eliminate the blue roof. Mr. Sparks
26 stated this may be possible, but would take time to gain approval, as this has become a
27 trademark to the franchise. He stated he would be willing to work on it though to meet
28 the standards of this planned unit development the City has been working on. Mr. Sparks
29 noted he met with Len Pratt and noted his architect would be working to comply with all
30 City standards.
31
32 Chair Melsha asked what the timeframe was for this project. Mr. Sparks indicated he
33 would like to be in the ground by July V. He noted all final plans would be to the City
34 by Monday, with the total construction taking approximately 16 weeks.
35
36 Commissioner Thomas questioned if there would be a bike rack on this site. Mr. Sparks
37 stated there would be a 20-space bike rack.
38
39 Commissioner Thomas asked if there was a moratorium on this site. Henry stated she
40 didn't know if this is still in place and noted she would bring this to the City Manager's
41 attention.
42
43 Chair Melsha asked if there was any evidence of contamination on the Exhaust Pros site.
44 Mr. Sparks stated he would be completing a Phase I and Phase U. He noted that he
45 would not be constructing a building with a basement and would therefore not be
46 impacting the groundwater. He stated his structure would be slab on grade as the current
47 structures sit today.

1 Mr. Sparks reviewed several photos of the proposed Culvers. He indicated the dining
2 room was the major difference between Culvers and other fast food restaurants. Mr.
3 Sparks noted the blue and white color scheme has become the trademark and indicated
4- approximately$30,000 would be spent on the landscape plan for the green space. He
5 indicated there would be roughly 8-10 out door patio settees.
6
7 Chair Melsha questioned if the traffic gets backed up often in the drive through,with
8 customers having to wait for their orders. Mr. Sparks noted this becomes a minimal
9 problem and is addressed at a staffing level to maximize staff at peak times. He
10 explained drive-through orders are stressed to be complete within 4-5 minutes. Mr.
11 Sparks noted the layout of the drive-through as it exists does allow for some stacking.
12 He explained that at Culvers, 30%of the orders are drive-through with 70% of the orders
13 are in house. Mr. Sparks indicated Culvers is seen as a destination restaurant as opposed
14 to other fast food restaurants.
15
16 Commissioner Hanson asked how many people would be hired for this restaurant. Mr.
17 Sparks indicated there were roughly 60 positions. He noted 14 employees would be full-
18 time with all others maintaining part-time employment, the majority being teens. Mr.
19 Sparks noted Culvers has a very low turnover rate in comparison to other fast food
20 establishments. He indicated this has much to do with the philosophy behind Culvers
21 and their community involvement.
22
23 Chair Melsha thanked Mr. Sparks for his presentation and stated he looked forward to
24 seeing him again in May or June.

26 9.2 Northwest Quadrant Redevelopment Update.

29 structure his conversations as he moves forward to addressing the surrounding businesses
30 and property owners.

35 noted there were still several vacant spots within the mall.
36
37 Commissioner Thomas handed out information on the Living Green Expo and invited the
38 Commissioners to attend. He cautioned the Commissioners that Culvers not be moved through
39 the Planning Commission process too quickly. Commissioner Thomas stated he wanted to make
40 sure this project met the design standards of the PUD. Henry stated she would be forwarding
41 plans to the design team so they are able to offer comments.
42
43 Chair Melsha asked how they felt about Culvers at this time. Commissioner Hanson stated this
44 site also is outside of the main square, which may leave the design standards more open.
