44
45 Commissioner Murphy rep-resented the Planning Commission
46 at this Council Meeting.
47
48 Commissioner Murphy stated that the minutes of the
49 Planning Commission Meeting of Februray 18 , 1992 were
50 included in the Council agenda packet .
` 1
J
52 He referred to the minutes which addressed tie request
from Shie}c ' s Garden Restaurant for a conditional use
04 permit . He noted that the Planning Co=nissic- is
i PEGU I COUPCI MEET-_ G
MARCH 10 , 1992 •
3 PAGE 6
4
6 recommending approval of the conditional use permit
7 request as it meets the three conditions required for
8 approval in the opinion of the members of the Commission .
9
10
11 Mr . Alwan , owner of Sheik ' s Garden Restaurant , is
12 considering having up to thirty amusement devices in his
13 operation . Presently, he is allowed only three . Mr. Alwan
14 had stated at the Commission Meeting these amusement
15 devices would afford him an opportunity to generate -more
16 revenue in the older , rear portion of his restaurant . He
17 felt these devices would be in keeping with his business
18 which will focus on families .
19
20 Commissioner Murphy observed that if Ordinance No . 1992-
21 001 were approved, it would be much easier to monitor the
22 operation . This ordinance would allow only the operator
23 of the establishment to hold the licenses to the
24 amusement devices with nc more than thirty-five devices
25 being allowec in one location .
26
27 Staff had also made recommendations for five conditions •
28 for granting approval of this request . They are as
29 follows :
30
31 1 . The arcade shall prohibit tobacco, a1coh•_--�1 , and
32 drugs on the premises .
33
34 2 . The arcade shall prohibit individuals under the
35 influence of tobacco , alcohol or drugs .
36
37 3 . Proper supervision should be available at all times
38 to ensure appropriate conduct and behavior .
39
40 4 . The access from kitchen to dining area shall be
41 segregated to ensure safety.
42
43 S . The number of amusement devices allowed will be
44 dependent_ upon the available number of amusement
45 device licenses and available space within the area
46 designated on the proposed plan .
47
48 Commissioner Murphy noted -that the five recommendations
49 of staff were included in the recommendation for approval
50 from the Planning Commission . Also, included in the
Z1 Commission ' s recommendation was to require an annual
52 review by the Police Chief and staff with the owner . The
5' history of police calls and disturbances as well as •
54 complaints would be reviewed .

6 This annual review had been - in place with a business
7 which previously operated amusement devices in Apache
g Plaza .
Q
10 Marks inquired what the Planning Commission recommended
11 for action if there were problems generated by these
12 devices .
13
14 Commissioner Murphy responded that he had made a similar
15 inquiry at the Planning Commission meeting. It was
16 determined that if the annual review reflected continued
17 troublesome activity the conditional use permit could be
18 revoked as could the licenses for the amusement devices .
19
20 The City Manager felt it would be rather difficult to
21 rev�Dke a conditional use permit but probably be easier to
22 revoke a permit .
G i
Marks inquired if a one year
ime limit coulC h°_ r1ace^
25 on the coa_d_ tior.al use permit for better control . T1:e
E City Manager felt this was a possibility and had been
��7 done wit-. a previous c.^_nditicnal use permit issued for a
3 b"= iness in Apache Plaza .
29
30 The Mayor recalled that "probable cause" had to '-be shoes=:.
31 to take th1S aCtiO?'i and this could never done
3 satisfactorily.
33
34 Commissioner Murphy noted that much frustration was
35 experienced by the owner of the Malt Shop with the lack
36 of coopertion from .the shopping mall security personnel .
'S The City Manager stated that the Police Chief has
39 indicated he will most likely have to alter the patrol
40 schedule to accommodate more patrolling rounds of the
41 area if this. request is approved.
42
43 Wagner inquired what the mix of amusement devices would
44 be . Commissioner Murphy responded that Mr. Alwan intends
45 to have eight kiddie rides with the remainder being video
46 games . All of the video games will be in the back area of
47 the establishment according to the sketchy floor plan
48 submitted by the owner . It was noted that the remodelling
49 indicated on the site plan is not yet done .
50
51 Wagner noted that video games focus on teenagers ar:d
52 inquired what aye group the arnuserr.e;-it devices is inte.- ed
03 to attract .
4
3 P E 8
6 Mir . Alwan stated feat he is focusing on youngsters from
7 five to fifteen .
8
9 Don Tonnell , a resident of St . Anthony , spoke in support
1C of approval of the conditional use permit . He noted he iS
11 in the shopping mall frequently and feels this type of
12 operation will be beneficial for the businesses located
13 there .
14
15 The City Manager advised that some of the site plan has
16 changed somewhat . The location of the games will not be
17 as close to the kitchen as indicated in the site plan to
18 avoid problems with food service . The games will be in
19 front of the operation . Staff was not concerned with the
2i location of the games but this can be made part of the
21 conditional use permit .
23 Marrs inquired wh-at the hours of operation were planned .
24 Mr . Alwan responded that they will be from 10 : 00 a .m. to
25 i0 : 00 p .m. which are different from the hours of
26 operation of Apache Plaza . Mr . Alwan felt this would pose
27 no problems as the business has its own entrance . He
2=- Stated he X1: 11 hire police if there is a need . •
2 ;
3C The ;kayo: inquired what experience Mr . Alwan had with
31 this type of operation . Mr . Alwan stated he had
experience in his native country of Iraq . He also
3? operated the Fur: Center for approximately two months . He
34 found this difficult as the smoke bothered him.
3J
36 The Mayor stated his opposition to the granting of the
37 conditional use permit . He views the operation as a fur:
38 center and arcade and feels another business of this type
39 is not needed in St . Anthony. He reflected on the
40 problems which have been experienced with this type of
41 business in the past . He has no problems with the kiddie
42 rides but recalled the problems associated with a former
. 43 operation with video games at the shopping mall even when
44 the owner tried . to make it very successful ..
45
46 Mr . Alwan observed the problems presently happening with
47 the bowling alley at Apache Plaza and felt they all
48 stemmed from poor supervision. He stated he intends to
49 have considerable control and supervision at his
5C establishment . He is focusing on having this business a
51 successful restaurant rather than an arcade . Mr . Alwan
52 stated the amount of money he has already put into the
5 operation and s ome of the daily specials he is including
5c on the menu .

6 Mayor Ranallo again stated he envisions. this operation
7 becoming an arcade or fun center and that it has all of
8 the potential for problems which the former operation
9 experienced .
i0
11 The Mayor noted that the Fun. Center located at St .
12 Anthony Shopping Center is run on a very strict basis
13 regarding behavior and regulations . He felt this business
14 may not be able to continue as it is operated so very
15 well .
16
17 Motion by Marks , second by Enrooth to approve the
18 conditional use permit for Sheik ' s Garden Restaurant with
19 the saM conditions as the Plannina Com:::ission
C. recommended .
2 1
2% F e m ing inquired what some of the concerns of the
23 Planning Comimission were . The City Manager states that
24 t*:e Police Chief sees no particular problems but he
25 anticipates increasing patrols and manpower focused on
26. :his location . There was some concern for possible
7'7 smskir.g in the corrid.--,r near the business .
�5.
9 City Manager suggested that an annual review be
3-0 i n i uede-d as a cones 1 t i on of the cond i t i ona i use permi t . He
31 felt that for tr:e . Counci1 to not issue a new license
would rea-aire very good documentation , so the staff would
33 keep stringent records regarding warnings or calls for
34 service from the Police Department .
35
3E The Mayor recalled that there were frequent meetings by
37 the owner of the Malt Shop and the City Council as well
38 as the Planning Co;-rtmission . The problems still continued.
39
40 Wagner had concern with the number of video games versus
41 the kiddie rides . He felt families may not patronize the
42 restaurant with so many video games there . He inquired if
43 Mr . Alwan intended to replace the kiddie rides with video
44 games if they were not used. Mr . Alwan responded he has
45 no such plans .
46
47 Mayor Ranallo observed that a pool table is included on
48 the site plan . Mr . Alwan stated that he does not intend
49 to have a pool table in his establishment and did not
CO notice this item on the site plan when he signed the
51 application. .
5%
53 Marks requested that the word "billiards" be exluded fr--.:r,
the language of the conditional use permit ap.-lication .

He also reque_ste7 that the application include thct th=_
6 conditional use permit is being approved for one year and
7 that the next request include a review and a new
8 application .
9
10 Fleming inquired what the split of kiddie rides and viden
11 games is being considered . Mr . Alwan responded he intends
12 to have eight kiddie rides and twenty to twenty-two video
13 games .

40 annual meeting. The City Council ' s position on Tax
41 Increment Financing for the proposed CUB store will be
42 discussed. Wagner noted that negotiations on that matter
43 are continuing.
44
45 The Mayor inquired if there was any discussion of the
46 "St . Anthony Dollars" as the denominations were changed .
47 He noted that originally they were going to printed in
43 ten and twenty dollar denominations . Now the Chamber of
49 Commerce , who sponsors the campaign , has changed the
50 denominations to five and ter. dollars . Some of the
51 merchants at the St . Anthony Shopping Center have

25 4 . Parkina Ordinance
26 The City Manager , the Public Works Director and the
27 Management Assistant put together a video which
23 taped situations of vehicles parked on private and •
29 pu'r;lic property . Some of these instances were in
vlClatlOn of City ordinances and come_ were not .
31
32 The Cou-cii viewed the tape with the City Manager
narrating.
34
35 Some of the examples cited in the video dealt with
36 vehicles parked on non-paved surfaces , boats on
37 private property , recreational vehicles parked for
38 a lengthy amount of time on private property, and
39 vehicles and recreational equipment parked on a
40 seasonal basis on private property as well as on
41 public property.
42
43 The City Manager noted that since the ordinance
44 requires vehicles be parked on a paved surface many
45 residents have moved their vehicles from their back
46 yards to their front yards . He also observed that
47 some recreational vehicles are parked in a
48 resident ' s front yard because there is not access
49 to the back yard .
CO
51 Some commercial vehicles are also parked on private
5-) property which are used for employment purposes .

24
25 Councilmember Enrooth felt there would be
26 considerable vocal opposition to this ordinance . He
27 ir.quire3 if there was enough support on the Council
0.8 to pass and enforce a tough ordinance .

• Minutes from Special City Council Meeting March 14, 1992
3 The meeting began at 9:00 A.M..
4 Council Present: Clarence Ranallo, Mayor, Councilmembers Dorothy Fleming, Dick
5 Enrooth; George Wagner
6 Absent: George Marks
7 Staff Present: Tom Burt, City Manager
8 CR: ......you were leaving town this afternoon and I talked with George and about the only
9 time that George really had a chance to meet was late this afternoon and Monday
10 was out so he said to go ahead and have the meeting without him and he would talk
11 to Tom Burt Monday morning and see what we had discussed today.
12 So the two things on the agenda will be a letter to the Governor along with letters
13 to the state senator and state representative and then some ideas that each one of
14 us have that we can give to Tom between now and the Council.meeting on the 24th.
15 I know we've got a work session set for March 31st, but this is so drastic that I think
16 we need to look at taking some action at our 24th Council meeting. So, if that's OK,
�7 those two items on the agenda. Has anybody got anything else they want to add to
8 the agenda or that needs to be taken care of? Then we'll go with those two items.
19 What I did as far as trying to alert as many people as I could to this meeting is that
20 I had Connie and Tom call the Bulletin, Neal directly, and call Margo Ashmore of
21 the Northeaster directly advising them of this meeting. A fax to the Focus, and it's
22 been posted as usual plus on the Kiwanis board. So far I've had one person
23 responding to the Kiwanis board.
24 Over the past 2 or 3 days, I've talked with the League of Minnesota Cities and the
25 AMM. The first alert that we had was that they were looking at cutting 8% of our
26 revenue base, cutting all cities 8.2% of their revenue base. AMM calculated that out
27 to be $127,316 for St. Anthony. In fact, the maximum of our local government aid
28 and that was only 7.5% of our revenue base. Since then that's been confirmed that
29 that is what the figure is.
30 There is some ontroversey over this 8.2%. The governor said that in order to make
31 up for the big shortfall, he's proposing that local government aid be cut by $71.6
32 million for this year's cities budgets. The cuts are limited to city aid other than
33 HACA. Since then, someone alerted him to the fact that not all cities had local
34 government aid. So now they're saying, "Wait a minute, if all cities don't have local
35 government aid, we still want 8.2% of their tax revenue base so we better look at
6 HACA." There is a possibility that we could lose some more money.
2 •
1 These are all the things I have tried to talk to Mary Jo McGuire about. I've talked
2 to her via the voice mail thing. Her response was to Roger was "Everything's been
3 taken care of, Tom. But that was in response to the HRA question that you had
4 talked to her about,,not this. She called me back and clarified. She said they have
5 been meeting constantly about this. Her response was "We're working on it, we'll do
6 the best we can, but we don't know where it's going to.come out." I put a call in for
7 John Marty. I have not heard from John Marty, voice mail or any other way. The
8 League, as you've got in the Alert, has told us several things that we should do.
9 When I met with 22 Mayors, we thought rather than to write a letter to the governor
10 and to the state senators and state representatives saying we don't want anything cut
11 from us, we should write them a letter and say we were cut last year, and now we're
12 getting cut again. There are other places that you should look at as far as figuring
13 out your shortfall. In fact, we can't have a shortfall every year. You can have a
14 shortfall in one year, but when it becomes every year, that's no longer a shortfall.
15 Then you'd better look at what the real problem is.
16 So, what we'd like to do this morning is to put together some ideas for a letter to the
17 governor saying we are not happy with your$71.6 million cut of local government aid
18 and to look at some other areas-like the "rainy day fund". Now, in talking with
19 George Marks (because he could not be here), his feeling is that the "rainy day fund"
20 should not be cut.
21 DF: Do you mean the reserve?
22 CR: It's not really a reserve. It's a fund balance. The reserve is something different.
23 DF: What are the amounts?
24 DE: I think it's $500 million. What constitutes a "rainy day"?
25 You've got a point there. A shortfall that is consistent, is not a shortfall. It's more
26 budgeting and to live within your means. It's over spending. This is getting
27 ridiculous. If this isn't a crisis, I don't know what is.
28 TB: St. Anthony has about $200 and some thousand total that could be cut.
29 GW: $127,000, then it will be over $200 thousand, right.
30 CR: When you put these together, you say, well he's not going to cut us again. Now, all
31 of a sudden, comes June, we're not going to get $127,000. It's that simple.
•

•1 TB: Paul Ogren said it best, that this is a nice make-do way to resolve this year's problem,
2 but the problem is long term. Next year they'll be back and next year we can look
3 at losing our HACA. What we get in aid is about 25% of our budget. This is a nice
4 thing for re-election and a lot of campaign promises of no tax, but the long haul is
5 it's going to severely affect services in St. Anthony and all communities. We're
6 looking at a 25% reduction, some of these cities are zero LGA but they are actually
7 receiving HACA, so it's drastic cut back of services as we know them today.
8 GW: The first line here says, there are no cuts in the aids to counties, townships and
9 special districts.
10 TB: That's right.
11 DE: That doesn't look fair either.
12 DF: How much is in the other account, you said there's two, one is the rainy day fund and
13 the other one's the reserve fund?
14 TB: They are one in the same, the rainy day has $500 million. It's non-dedicated funds.
15 GW: Roger had it listed as $66 thousand, I think that was an earlier indication of how
much, now it's $71.6, but he had it on the basis of a prior formula where it only came
17 out to $28 thousand.
18 TB: That was based on the governor's speech.
19 DE: OK, that was including the counties, townships and local districts.
20 TB: Right. They are taking about 13% out of the Trust Fund. That money was supposed
21 to go to help cities so they wouldn't have to have LGA. Now they're taking away
22 LGA plus they're taking the Trust Fund. Taxes will not go down for the residents,
23 they will stay the same. Cities are going to help bail out the state and resolve their
24 poor financial practices.
25 GW: Is money going into the Trust Fund?
26 TB: There's money in that supposed account. But the governor has said many times, he's
27 going to do magic new miracles in accounting. It's pushing numbers around the page.
28 Governor's administrations have moved numbers around from year to year and
29 delayed the deficit. It's there, but I don't know that we're ever going to see it.
4 •
1 CR: One of the things we should point out in the Carlson letter is that on the relief fund,
2 I think that their proposed amount of what would be coming from the rainy day fund
3 should be used when there's a shortfall. They should use as much of that as possible
4 to balance the budget. That's what it's there for.
5 CR: I have not seen any cuts in state personnel. Putting together all of the various
6 agencies that they've got under one head and reducing, I have not seen any of that.
7 GW: I have not seen it either. The fact they're going to do it has only been alluded to,
8 that's-all.
9 DE: They relayed a percentage to us to be accomplished through attrition. There's no
10 consolidation. They're not taking this seriously. It's not being done fairly. It's not
11 being done to the counties, it's going to help to other bodies that should be sharing
12 this - school districts aren't being hit at all, are they?
13 TB: No.
14 DE: And higher education is going to be hit again. They've even come out with City
15 officials are paid too much.
16 GW: Distribution of this cut, including counties, townships and special districts, and I'm
17 sure the counties were planning on it. When I was at a meeting there the other day,
18 they mentioned that they were expecting it.
19 TB: One thing is that counties have a collective voice that's much louder than cities. It's
20 just difficult to get that many cities together on a common thing. This might pull us
21 together and create a very powerful group. But each individual city has a very weak
22 voice.
23 The other thing that I wanted to talk about is the report yjsy Mark Dayton's office
24 has put out. That talks about government employees being compensated well and
25 receive these outrageous benefits.
26 DF: Yes, let's hear about that.
27 TB: In St. Anthony there's two employees that receive over $50,000 - that's the liquor
28 store manager and myself. As far as what does it do for.benefits, we don't have, as
29 he says, the 11 weeks of vacation. After someone's been here over 20 years, they can
30 accumulate up to 4 weeks vacation maximum.
31 GW: That's below industry.
•
• S
1 TB: That's a little below industry. As far as outlandish insurance benefits, right now
2 insurance costs for family coverage costs about $400 a month. We pay$255 towards
3 that, so an employee still has a large chunk of it coming from their check.
4 CR: I just wanted to point out on that particular item, insurance, private industry is now
5 starting to have the employees pay part of the premiums and it's something like 10
6 or 15% of the total premium which total premium's $400, 10% is $40 which is a lot
7 less than public.
8 TB: You know every time I get into salary negotiations with the three unions, they always
9 bring up the surrounding communities to us. A police officer, firefighter, make more
10 in every single city around us. The only reason 49'ers are equivalent is because we
11 did joint negotiation for years so that means that the 49'ers, in all the cities are the
12 same rate. We're not talking about a lot of money for the 49'ers. They're making
13 about $25-26 thousand a year. It's very difficult to negotiate with the police because,
14 yes, we're a first ring suburb, yes we have crime, yes we have all the same problems
15 that any other first ring suburb does, but no you're not going to make that kind of
16 money. It's been difficult, but we've held them back. St. Anthony has done
17 everything they can. We provide only the essential services, police, fire, public works.
18 When you get to it, internal fluff, if we have to cut fluff, it means people. What that
19 equates to is service.
0
—21 What is it going to mean to programs? The Mayor and I have talked just a little bit
22 about some of our programs, like certain programs either in police or fire are going
23 to fall by the wayside because we.just cannot take the time and resources to put on
24 certain.programs. Some of them are all dear to us.
25 DE: How about some specifics. The letter should indicate what some of those services
26 are which we will have to cut to try and live with this unrealistic proposal.
27 CR: Not that we are going to cut these, but I think these are some of the issues that we
28 should look at. We're not putting these in any priority, but one of the things is how
29 much money do we donate to Northwest Suburban Youth and Family Services?
30 TB: $51000.
31 CR: VillageFest? - We spend almost $5,000, with overtime for police, fire and public
32 works. We're going to have to look at more volunteers on that particular thing.
33 Another one is the D.A.R.E. program.
34 TB: We get donations to make supplies. We don't get donations to pay for the officer's
35 time.
•
6 •
1 CR: OK. Make a note to yourself - supplies. Counties will pay for our supplies now.
2 There's a fund set up in the counties that we should talk about.
3 DF: The state may be looking at taking this over anyway. I thought they'd been lobbying
4 for that the last couple of years.
5 DF: That's what I thought.
6 DE: What's our overtime for public works and snow plowing, etc.?
7 TB: It's hard to ballpark. Usually we're done in 8 hours during normal snowfall.
8 CR: How much do we spend on D.A.R.E.?
9 TB: We spend close to $10,000 in supply costs. That doesn't include all of Dominic's
10 time. It doesn't include that we have to shift people around which means overtime
11 costs are in there too. The Chief has been filling shifts which means we're short in
12 other areas but that has helped us to reduce costs but if an officer needs to be shifted
13 in where it's not his time to work, he's paid overtime to work that shift.
14 CR: How much money do we get in donations?
15 Y
:TB This year we received close to the amount for supply costs. The •
—
16 Boosters/Chamber/Lions came through gave $7,500, and the Paul Todd concert
17 brought in about $3,000 and there was small dollar donations after that. We ran a
18 deficit from the year before.
19 CR: Recycling center?
20 GW: Now that's losing money, you'd have to consider that.
21 TB: Recycling isn't mandated. If the cities don't have a plan, the counties have to do it.
22 DF: How much is that again?
23 DE: About $10,000. We pay that outright. We can drop that and still have recycling.
24 TB: The state says that everybody has to have curbside recycling. That's required by the
25 state. You have to have it. You don't have to use it, but you have to have it. It
26 means everyone's paying for it twice.
27 CR: What other things do we have?
•
1 DE: We have to eliminate a fair amount of overtime or we're going to have to eliminate
2 a person or two. Ultimately, to get down to those kind of dollars, that's what its
3 going to take.
4 DF: A person or two? $127,000 adds up.
5 TB: I haven't talked to the employees yet so I'm not going talk positions, people or
6 departments right now, but I have a tentative plan that we're looking at three to four
7 people.
8 CR: But I think this ought to be pointed out, that the proposed cut could possibly
9 eliminate three or four people, which adds to the unemployment.
10 TB: And, in some cases may add to our overtime. If you cut or reduce services from
11 police, and if an officer arrests someone he has to go to court. There's court time,
12 there's court costs of doing that. Someone has to fill his shift if he has to go to court
13 during work hours.
14 CR: In the Carlson letter we should say that we are going to have to lay off people and
5 that in turn...The reason they're saying they got into the $560 million deficit is
because of the unemployment and the economy and everything else. This will not
17 help the economy.
18 TB: The other thing, too, is right now we've delayed all capital purchases. And, that has
19 a boomerang effect on us too. We've put off on some things, some heavy equipment
20 needs. This year we have plans for a squad car - no new squad car. That means
21 we'll be running these vehicles well over 100,000 miles of hard use. It means higher
22 maintenance. They may be out of service a little bit longer. Those are all things that
23 we have to consider as well.
24 CR: OK. Have you got enough things there that you can put together a letter?
25 GW: I think the Trust Fund ought to be in there. They will have cut $200,000 out of our
26 budget with the $76,000 last year and $127,000 this year.
27 DF: Carbon copy to Joanelle Dyrstad, Marty, and McGuire.
28 CR: We've covered some of the items just briefly that Tom should be looking at. Tom,
29 I also think that you should have Roger look at how the salaries of the
30 Councilmembers correspond to other cities of our size. We're in the middle or
31 closer to the bottom. Let's bring that out. If we're going to be asking City people,
probably not to lay off, but to take a one day leave or something like that, we should
be looking at all,of us. Is there anything that we've left unturned?
8 •
1 We discussed.Northwest Suburban, D.A.R.E., VillageFest, and the Recycling Center.
2 I myself think that one of the actions we should take March 24th is to eliminate all
3 overtime. If you want that from us, Tom. I don't know.
4 TB: I don't know that we can eliminate it because we still have the situation where an
5 officer has to go to court, or watermain breaks. And if it does snow....but certainly
6 for the things that we can, we will limit the use of overtime.
7 DF: I'd just like to know what they could do next year because isn't this just about it?
8 TB: No, HACA. If they go after the HACA, we're looking at another $200 plus
9 thousand.
10 DF: One of the things that some people say that if you're doing this it wouldn't be
11 necessarily to hurt here it's to help somewhere else. They're talking, for example,
12 about in stead of having our own police department, merging. Is this part of it?
13 TB: Well, you know we went through the whole consolidation exercise and, to some
14 people's displeasure, the outcome was bigger is not better. We looked at costs of
15 providing basic services and you can compare us to other communities and we may
16 be high on one side, we may be low on the other side, but overall our costs are less.
17 Remember the Citizen's League Report talks about the 96 metropolitan communities
18 and how we rank. We've ranked always within the bottom 10 for our taxes. So taxes
19 in St. Anthony are low. If we go to a consolidated service,we're talking about higher
20 costs and less services. What this plan is talking about is ultimately higher cost and
21 less service, but it takes away accountability. As a taxpayer, when you have a
22 problem, let's say with the plowing of your street, do you think you're going to get
23 the same response if you call a Ramsey County Commissioner?
24 DF: No, I don't.
25 TB: Or any other commissioner in any other county? Or calling a state representative?
26 I've been trying to get through to our representatives for a week. It takes time.
27 They have such a big area that one person's voice is very small. Are they pushing in
.28 that direction? They may be trying.
29 DF: That's what I mean because, see, then the control shifts, that's all my point is.
30 TB: I don't know about that. The state would be taking on a bigger problem than they
31 realize. Also, I think for many of the residents, the services we provide here are very
32 near and dear to them. The state has the ability to take that away from us, but will
33 the people stand for it? I don't know if that's true.
34 CR: What is your name again?
9
1 A: Bob Williams.
2 CR: Bob came in before and we were talking. Have you got any questions?
3 A: It's been very difficult to understand how much the budget has been cut and why.
4 But you went through that before. I don't have any major questions. Someone's got
5 to bite the bullet.
6 CR: Each year we have a volunteer recognition date and this year it's April 27th. We get
7 together all the volunteers in the City and we have a very small dinner for them and
8 that's the only pay they ever get. I think we should continue having that this year
9 even though we have all our problems. At that point, I'm going to ask each one of
10 those volunteers to go out and get another volunteer. We're going to look at
11 volunteers for some of those areas. We're going to have to really expand our
12 volunteer programs.
13 TB: Mr. Mayor, I compliment him for his ideas. One of the things I've always thought
14 is no overtime - don't pay for people to come out and do snow removal. As an
15 example, the Halloween snowstorm. A lot of people wouldn't have gotten to work,
6 if had waited to do it on straight time. It could result directly on other people's
pocketbooks, too. We have to have a balance on the services we provide. We can
18 reduce those service levels, but is it going to cost people more in the long run by
19 reducing certain services? That is an impact and can happen.
20 DE: I think the public is going to finally realize that something like this is going to really
21 hit them dearly and that the government is just running an inept organization. You
22 can't have shortfalls every year.
23 TB: As a city, if we had a shortfall, we'd resolve it immediately. would never carry a
24 shortfall from one year into the next. We've been fairly resilient as cities because
25 we've had money taken away from us midstream for the past two and three years and
26 we've always been able to reduce certain things and manage it. The state has lost
27 that. They're too busy micromanaging everything that they've forgotten to manage
28 their own organization.
29 CR: We have a reserve. But keep in mind you can't use that.
30 TB: That money is set aside for just operational costs. Roger indicated it will effect us,
31 it will effect some of our interest earnings which we depend on to make up some of
32 our revenue. Ultimately what it means is that it's very very close. I put out a memo
33 saying no purchasing until after June because we could run out of money. We get
JJ74 into the point of not having any money to make payroll. This year it's going to be
5 even closer. That worries me. One of the things I've made notes on is what happens
10
1 if we go for one or two day layoffs? No pay, you're out the door, you're layed off for
2 one or two days. How much revenue can we bring in by doing that? Well, it effects
3 everybody's pay. What we're doing is passing the problem on to the employees. It
4 also effects service levels as well. We can't lay off police officers for a day, we can't
5 lay off firefighters. So what does it mean? It means public works and office staff is
6 layed off. That's not that large an amount of money. What does it mean? We could
7 probably lay off people for a couple days but they have to put bread on their table,
8 too. It has a very drastic effect on the people and they're feeling the same impact
9 of reduced services where they live.
10 CR: We have a large amount of medicals. If we don't keep our streets plowed in the
11 middle of the night and these firefighters can't get there...there's.got to be some
12 snowplows out.
13 TB: There are some things we can do. We can do less maintenance in the park, not mow
14 the grass as frequently. We can stop weed control in the parks. Some of the things
15 wouldn't necessarily directly effect service levels, but it will have an effect. We always
16 stress image in St. Anthony. Its going to be hard to maintain a good image if all of
17 a sudden we reduce services. There's got to be a balance of that too. St. Anthony
18 has a very good reputation for itself and that is what has maintained its value as high.
19 If we aren't able to keep that image long-term, what effect will that have on the
20 community?
21 CR: Anything else? OK. On March 24th, whatever you feel should be put on that
22 agenda that you,want us to take some action on, you let us know.
23 TB: OK.
24 DE: We know the cuts are going to happen, we just don't know where they're going to
25 come from.
26 TB: Right.
27 CR: The governor made a proposal he's given to the legislature. They've got to act on
28 it. Wednesday of next week should be the end of getting information from the cities
29 and then they'll vote on it. We've got to get a letter to them Monday just to give
30 them some of our ideas and they can act.
31 TB: The letter is almost complete now. It will go out in Monday's mail under the Mayor's
32 signature.
33 CR: Anything else?
i
11
101 DF: Choosing candidates for state offices should be top priority. We know now what
2 happens when they are not representing us properly.
3 CR: Anything else? Move to adjourn Enrooth, second Wagner.

CLAIMANT: PAUL J. BUTLER
D/A: 08-27-89
Dear Mr. Burt:
CAB Please be advised that this file has been concluded by way
of a $ 6, 000. 00 full and final settlement with claimant
Paul J. Butler.
Under the City of St. Anthony's covenant with the League
of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust the city does have a
$ 10, 000. 00 per occurrence deductible under endorsement
ME030. Defense attorney fees are subject to inclusion in
this deductible. Therefore we would request at this time
the deductible recovery, calculated as follows:
• The city squad car sustained damages amounting to
$ 730.00. We were successful in recovering $ 584 . 00 from
the adverse carrier. Therefore the city's net loss was
$ 146.00.
Butler's BI claim was .settled for $ 6, 000.00, plus
$ 5, 933 . 24 in attorney fees and expenses were incurred for
a total expenditure of $ 11,933 . 24 . Since the city has a
$ 10, 000. 00 deductible, the recovery would be limited to
this amount, less the $ 146. 00 loss you already sustained.
This leaves a net reimbursement due of
$ 9, 854 . 00.
We would request at this time a draft in the amount of
$ 9,854 .00 made payable to GAB Business Services and
forwarded to our attention. If there are any questions
please feel :free to call me.
Sincerely,

Silver Lane to I-694
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
INTRODUCTION
In 1987 , the Ramsey County Public Works Department began the
project development process for reconstructing Silver Lake Road
from Silver Lane to I-694 . A Project Path Report for this
project has been reviewed and approved by the Federal Highway
Administration ( FHWA) , the Minnesota Department of Transportation
(MnDOT) , and the Ramsey County Board of Commissioners .
The Public Involvement Record has been completed and will be
submitted to the FHWA and MnDOT for review and approval if the
cities approve the reconstruction proposal recommended by Ramsey
County. Following approval of the Public Involvement Record, the
Ramsey County Public Works Department will prepare a Study Report
for review and approval by the FHWA, MnDOT, and the Ramsey County
Board of Commissioners . If approvals are received, the Ramsey
County Public Works Department would initiate final design for
this .project with construction anticipated to begin in 1994 .
EXISTING DEFICIENCIES
The existing deficiencies of Silver Lake Road between Silver Lane
and I-694 are :
• Safety: Ramsey County reviewed accident data for the
intersections of Windsor Lane , Inca Lane, County Road E,
Third Street, Fifth Street, and Seventh Street. A total
o,f 67 accidents were reported at these intersections from
1986-1989 . New Brighton residents were involved in 52 of
the 67 accidents reported. The reconstruction proposal
would correct the majority of these accidents .
• Traffic Capacity: The current roadway design does not
accommodate existing traffic volumes ( see attachment) and
will not accommodate projected traffic volumes .
• Sight Distance/Vertical Curves : The current roadway design
does not meet state aid standards for these elements .
• Drainage : Poor or inadequate .
• Load Capacity: Currently limited to five tons . Ramsey
County requires its roadways to be reconstructed to a nine
ton capacity.
• o Pavement Condition: The roadway base is deteriorated.
The pavement is cracked and rutted.
•
IMPROVEMENT ALTERNATIVES
Ramsey County has identified three alternatives for the
improvement of Silver Lake Road:
o Do Nothing: This alternative would not address any of the
deficiencies identified. The roadway would continue to
deteriorate . Ramsey County does not consider this a
viable alternative .
o Recycle/Overlay: The maintenance division of the Ramsey
County Public Works Department would perform this
operation. It would improve the pavement condition and
load capacity. It would not address any of the other
deficiencies identified . The cost to the cities and the
County would be less than the reconstruction proposal .
The roadway would not be eligible for reconstruction for a
minimum of 15 years.
o Reconstruction Proposal : The reconstruction proposal
recommended by Ramsey County would correct all of the
deficiencies identified. The project is ' anticipated to
cost $2 . 9 million . Federal , State and County funds would
finance approximately 90% of the total project cost .
RECOMMENDATION AND ACTIONS
Ramsey County recommends the reconstruction alternative for the
improvement of Silver Lake Road and requests concurrence from the
cities of New Brighton and St. Anthony to proceed with develop-
ment of construction plans. in accordance with that recommenda-
tion. The County further requests that the cities take action on
this request by May 1 , 1992 .

1992 AMENDMENTS TO

REDEVELOPMENT PLAN AND
THE KENZIE TERRACE
• TAX INCREMENT FINANCING PLAN
(INTEREST REDUCTION PROGRAM)
HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY
OF ST. ANTHONY, MINNESOTA
•
• L INTRODUCTION.
The Commissioners of the Housing and Redevelopment Authority of
St. Anthony, Minnesota (the "HRA") and the City Council of the City of St.
Anthony, Minnesota (the "City"), have previously approved the Kenzie Terrace
Redevelopment Plan (the "Redevelopment Plan") and the Kenzie Terrace
Redevelopment Project (the "Redevelopment Project") to be undertaken pursuant
thereto in an area located in the City (the "Project Area"), and in order to finance the
public redevelopment costs to be incurred by the City and the HRA in connection
with the.Redevelopment Plan and the Redevelopment Project, the HRA and the
City have approved the Kenzie Terrace Tax Increment Financing Plan (the
"Financing Plan"), which establishes the Kenzie Terrace Tax Increment Financing
District (the "District").
The major objectives of the Redevelopment Plan were to: acquire for
redevelopment economically or functionally obsolete or underutilized buildings
and land; provide a redevelopment site of a character which would encourage
future development of the area and improve sources of public revenue; eliminate
blighting influences which impeded potential development; provide maximum
opportunity for redevelopment by private enterprise consistent with the needs of
the City as a whole; and encourage private rehabilitation of structures within the
Project Area. In furtherance of these objectives, the HRA entered into a
• Redevelopment Contract (the "Redevelopment Contract") dated as of July 6, 1988
with St. Anthony LaNel, a Minnesota general partnership ("LaNel") for
development of a 201-unit multi-family residential rental housing project (the
"Development") .intended for occupancy by individuals of low and moderate
income on the land located in the Project Area. The HRA determined that
redevelopment of the Project Area and construction of the Development pursuant
to the Redevelopment Contract were in the best interests of the City and benefited
the health, safety, morals and welfare of its residents.
Prior to execution of the Redevelopment Contract, the HRA and the
HRA's financial consultant calculated projections of the necessary tax increment to
be generated in the Development to ensure that the bonds to be paid with the tax
increment would be retired as anticipated. The amount of tax increment projected
by the HRA was based upon real estate taxes estimated to be $1,200 per apartment
unit in the Development. Throughout the discussions leading up to the
preparation and the execution of the Redevelopment Contract (and in prior
discussions with other potential developers of the Development), the parties
assumed that the property tax per apartment unit in the Development would be
approximately $1,200.. These projections were made based upon the 1988 state
property tax rate classifications. Since 1988, the Minnesota legislature has modified
the system in a way which has resulted in an increase in the per unit property tax
expenses. Construction of the Development has been completed by LaNel. The
• projection for the 1991 tax increment derived from the Development was $211,000,
and the projection of the 1992 tax increment derived from the Development was
$221,100. In actuality, the amount of the tax increment derived from the •
Development for 1991 was $291,784, the amount of the tax increment derived from
the Development for 1992 is projected to be $275,586. The amount of the real estate
taxes per unit for the Development have resulted in unforeseen and excessive tax
burdens to LaNel which have impaired its ability to pay mortgage interest and other
expenses of operating the Development. Without some relief in such costs or
financial assistance, LaNel may be required to significantly increase rental rates,
which will make the apartment units in the Development less affordable to
individuals of low and moderate income and may increase vacancies in the
Development. Section 6.1 of the Redevelopment Contract requires the minimum
tax increment generated by the Development to be $1,100 per unit, and Section 2.2(c)
of the Redevelopment Contract states that the minimum improvements will be
constructed so as to have an assessed value of at least $5,700,000. LaNel has
complied with these requirements and contends that it was the intention of all
parties that the real estate taxes on the Development would not be more than $1,200
per unit. Based upon.the foregoing facts, LaNel has requested payment by the HRA
to LaNel of any excess tax increment from the District up to the amount of $50,000
per year to assist LaNel in the payment of interest on the financing for the
Development and allow rental rates to remain at a level which is affordable to
individuals of low and moderate income. The HRA has concluded that it would be
in the public's best interest to maintain the occupancy and quality of the
Development and provide affordable rental housing to individuals of low and'
moderate income by establishing an interest reduction program (the "Interest
Reduction Program") under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.012, Subd. 7 with
respect to the excess tax increment available from taxes payable with respect to the
Development in the years 1991, 1992 and 1993.
By these 1992 Amendments to the Redevelopment Plan and Financing
Plan (the "Amendments") the Commissioners of the HRA establish the Interest
Reduction Program and amend the Redevelopment Plan and the Financing Plan to
the extent necessary to provide for the establishment of the Interest Reduction
Program and to authorize the expenditure of tax increment revenues derived from
the District for costs incurred and to be incurred by the City or HRA in connection
with the establishment, development and administration of the Interest Reduction
Program. These Amendments are approved by the Commissioners of the HRA and
the City pursuant to Minnesota Statutes, Chapter 469.012, subdivision 7, and
Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.175, subdivision 4.
II. STATEMENT OF NEED AND OBJECTIVES
The establishment and carrying out of the Interest Reduction Program
is consistent with the objectives of the HRA as stated in the Redevelopment Plan all
of which will meet the needs specified in the Redevelopment.Plan.
-2-
• III. INTEREST REDUCTION PROGRAM
The establishment and carrying out of the Interest Reduction Program
are hereby approved. Under the Interest Reduction Program, the HRA will pay up
to $50,000 per year to LaNel from excess tax increment from the District available
from taxes payable with respect to the Development in the years 1991, 1992 and 1993.
In developing the Interest Reduction Program the HRA has considered (i) the
availability and affordability of other governmental programs; (ii) the availability
and affordability of private market financing; and (iii) the need for additional
mortgage credit to encourage the construction and enable the purchase of housing
units within the,jurisdiction of the HRA. The HRA intends to enter into an
agreement with LaNel meeting the requirements of Minnesota Statutes, Section
469.012, subdivision 9, with respect-to the Interest Reduction Program and such
agreement shall contain the rules of the HRA for the Interest Reduction Program.
IV. ADDITIONAL EXPENDITURE OF TAX INCREMENT
The costs proposed to be paid by the HRA or City with respect to the
Interest Reduction Program from tax increment derived from.the District are as
follows:
• Interest Reduction
Assistance $150,000
Administrative 10,000
Total $160,000
The use of tax increment derived from the District to pay the costs of
the Interest Reduction Program is hereby authorized. Such costs are expected to be
paid directly from tax increment derived from the District. It is not expected that
any obligations will be issued by the City or HRA to finance such costs.
V. FISCAL AND ECONOMIC IMPLICATIONS OF ADDITIONAL
EXPENDITURES
.It is estimated fiscal and economic implications of the additional
expenditures of tax increment revenue derived from the District for the Interest
Reduction Program as authorized by these 1992 Amendments will be as follows:
The local governmental units other than the City which are authorized
by law to levy ad valorem property taxes in the area where the District is located and
Independent School District No. 282, Hennepin County, the HRA, and various
metropolitan area authorities, including the Metropolitan Council, the
-3-
Metropolitan Transit Commission, the Metropolitan Airports Commission and the
Metropolitan Mosquito Control District (the local government units). •
After the establishment and during the continuation of the District, as
a result of the Redevelopment Project and the implementation of the
Redevelopment Plan and the improvements in the District there has been an
increase in the tax capacity of the taxable property in the District. If the tax
increments derived from the District are not applied to pay the cost of the Interest
Reduction Program described herein, the District would terminate approximately
one year earlier than would otherwise be the case assuming ad valorem taxes are
paid with respect to the taxable property in the District in the anticipated amounts.
Upon such terminati on such increased tax capacity would be available for taxation
by the local governmental units. However, as a result of these Amendments such
increase in valuation will not be available for taxation by the local governmental
units until approximately one year later.
VI. DETERMINATIONS IN ORIGINAL FINANCING PLAN
The determinations made in the Financing Plan with respect to
designation of the District as a Redevelopment District and Housing District under
the Minnesota Tax Increment Financing Act, the impact of the establishment of the
District and the implementation of the Redevelopment Plan and undertaking of the
Redevelopment Project and the captured tax capacity of the District upon the •
redevelopment thereof are not affected by these 1992 Amendments and such
determinations remain in full force and effect following the adoption of these
Amendments.
VI. ADDITIONAL AMENDMENTS TO PLAN
The City and the HRA reserve the right to alter these Amendments
and to further amend or modify the Redevelopment Plan and the Financing Plan by
their joint action, subject to the provisions of state law regulating such action.
VIII. ORIGINAL PLAN
The Redevelopment Plan and the Financing Plan, except to the extent
provisions thereof are explicitly amended or supplemented by these 1992
Amendments shall remain in and be in full force and effect.
-4- •
• AMENDMENT OF REDEVELOPMENT CONTRACT
THIS AMENDMENT is made as of , 1992, by and between the
HOUSING AND REDEVELOPMENT AUTHORITY OF ST. ANTHONY,
MINNESOTA, a public body corporate and politic (the "HRA"), established pursuant
to Minnesota Statutes, Sections 462.411-462.711 (the "Act"), and ST. ANTHONY
LANEL, a Minnesota general partnership ("LaNel").
RECITALS:
A. Prior to the date of this Amendment, the HRA prepared and approved,
pursuant to Sections 462.515 and 462.521 of the Act, a redevelopment plan (the
"Redevelopment Plan") for a redevelopment project known and referred to as the
Kenzie Terrace Redevelopment Project (the 'Project") in an area (the "Project
• Area") located in the City of St. Anthony (the "City").
B. On June 28, 1982, the City Council of the City adopted a resolution
establishing the Project Area as a tax increment financing district.
C. The major objectives of the Redevelopment Plan were to: Acquire for
redevelopment economically or functionally obsolete or underutilized buildings
and land; provide a redevelopment site of a character which would encourage
future development of the area and improve sources of public revenue; eliminate
blighting influences which impeded potential development; provide maximum
opportunity for redevelopment by private enterprise consistent with the needs of
the City as a whole; and encourage private rehabilitation of structures within the
Project Area.
D. In furtherance of these objectives, the HRA entered into a Redevelopment
Contract dated as of July 6, 1988 with LaNel ("Redevelopment Contract") for
development of a 201-unit multi-family residential rental housing project (the
i "Development") intended for occupancy'by individuals of low and moderate
income on the land described in Exhibit A hereto (the "Land") by LaNel.
E. The HRA determined that redevelopment of the Project Area and
construction of the Development pursuant to the Redevelopment Contract were in
the best interests of the City and benefited the health, safety, morals and welfare of
its residents.
F. Prior to execution of the Redevelopment Contract, the HRA and the
HRA's financial consultant calculated projections of the necessary tax increment to
be generated in the Development to ensure that the bonding to be paid with the tax
increment would be retired as anticipated. The amount of tax increment projected
by the BRA was based upon real estate taxes estimated to be $1,200 per apartment
unit in the Development.
G. Throughout the discussions leading up to the preparation and the
execution of the Redevelopment Contract (and in prior discussions with other
potential developers of the Development), the parties assumed that the property tax
per apartment unit in the Development would be approximately $1,200. These
projections were made based upon the 1988 state property tax rate classifications.
Since 1988, the Minnesota legislature has modified the system in a way which has
resulted in an increase in the per unit property tax expenses.
H. Construction of the Development has been completed by LaNel. The
projection for the 1991 tax increment derived from the Development was $211,000,
and the projection of the 1992 tax increment derived from the Development was
$221,100. In actuality, the amount of the tax increment derived from the
• 2
Development for 1.991 was $291,784, the amount of the tax increment derived from
the Development for 1992 is projected to be $275,586. S
I. The amount of the real estate taxes per unit for the Development have
resulted in unforeseen and excessive tax burdens to LaNel which have impaired its
ability to pay mortgage interest and other expenses of operating the Development.
Without some relief in such costs or financial assistance, LaNel may be required to
significantly increase rental rates, which will make the apartment units in the
Development less affordable to individuals of low and moderate income and may
increase vacancies in the Development.
J. Section 6.1 of the Redevelopment Contract requires the minimum tax
increment generated by the Development to be $1,100 per unit, and Section 2.2(c) of
the Redevelopment Contract states that the minimum improvements will be
constructed so as to have an assessed value of at least $5,700,000. LaNel has
complied with these requirements and contends that it was the intention of all
parties that the real estate taxes on the Development would not be more than $1,200 •
per unit.
K. To finance the acquisition and construction of the Development by LaNel,
the City issued its $10,750,000 Housing Development Revenue Bonds (St. Anthony
LaNel Project), Series 1988 (the "Bonds") under and pursuant to Minnesota Statutes,
Chapter 462C, and loaned the proceeds of the Bonds to LaNel (the "Loan"), under
and pursuant to a Loan Agreement, dated September 1, 1988, between the City and
LaNel (the "Loan Agreement"). Under.the Loan Agreement, LaNel is obligated to
repay the Loan in amounts sufficient to pay the principal of and interest on the
Bonds when due.
3 •
L. Based upon the foregoing facts, LaNel has requested payment by the HRA
to LaNel of any excess tax increment up to the amount of$50,000 per year to assist
LaNel in the payment of interest on the Loan and allow rental rates to remain at a
level which is affordable to individuals of low and moderate income.
M. The HRA has concluded that it would be in the public's best interest to
maintain the occupancy and quality of the Development and provide affordable
rental housing to individuals of low and moderate income by providing interest
reduction assistance to LaNel under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.012, Subd. 7
with respect to the excess increment available from taxes payable in the years 1991,
1992 and 1993.
N. The HRA has approved an interest reduction program (the "Interest
Reduction Program") under Minnesota Statutes, Section 469.012, Sudb. 7, for the
Development. In authorizing the Interest Reduction Program, the HRA has relied
upon representation of LaNel that the Interest Reduction Program is necessary in
order to allow LaNel to maintain the occupancy of the Development and keep
rental rates for the units in the Development at a level that is affordable to
individuals of low and moderate income.
NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereby agree as follows:
1. Easements. Under the Redevelopment Contract, and subsequent
agreements between the HRA and LaNel and/or the City and LaNel, LaNel agreed
to-provide the City with certain utility easements. It is understood.and agreed that
this Amendment is conditioned upon the execution, delivery and recording of such
easements in a form acceptable to the HRA and the City on or before June 1, 1992. If
such easements have not been fully executed by all necessary parties and delivered
to the City on or before that date, this Amendment shall be null and void upon
4
written notice by the City to LaNel, whereupon neither party shall have any further
obligations to the other under this Amendment except as provided in Paragraph 4 is
hereof, but LaNel's obligation to provide the easements shall continue under the
