22 VI. PUBLIC HEARINGS.
23 A. St. Anthony Unocal-76
24 1. Conditional Use Permit
25 Chair Bergstrom opened the public hearing at 7:03 p.m.
26 Commissioner Makowske acknowledged that he felt this was an excellent prospect for
27 expansion. He would however, refrain from voting or conversation on the issue as in the course
28 of his business dealings he did receive direct financial benefit.
29 Kim Moore-Sykes, Management Assistant reported Roger Bona, owner of the Unocal 76 Service
30 Station, 2812 - 27th Avenue NE, is proposing to build an addition to his existing service station
31 so that he will be able to expand his auto repair business. The purpose of the addition is to
32 increase the number of repair bays.
33 The proposed expansion is 5,613 square feet, requiring an additional 19 parking spaces. Mr.
34 Bona is proposing to put 21 parking spaces on site and to construct 14 additional parking spaces

1 on an adjacent piece of property that he recently purchased. The old meat market building will
2 be demolished to make way for a portion of the proposed on-site parking.
3 In May, Mr. Bona and his architect presented drawings and plans to City Staff which showed the
4 proposed addition within the City's setback requirements. They also conducted a neighborhood
5 meeting on June 2, 1996. Mr. Dan Dahling, of Finn-Daniels Architects indicated that the
6 meeting went well, with the majority of the comments addressing a need for increased
7 landscaping. The residents and business representatives who attended the meeting advised them
8 that they want landscaping that will provide more visual screening that will also muffle the noise.
9 Ms. Moore-Sykes stated Staff is recommending that the conditional use permit be granted based
10 on the following conditions:
11 1. The parking areas must have striping for all the proposed parking spaces.
12 2. No more than 10 cars stored on the site for no more than 48 hours. This would also
13 include the parking area across the alley from the business.
14 3. Change the property address to reflect the business frontage on Kenzie Terrace.
15 Ms. Moore-Sykes explained with approving a conditional use permit, various additional
16 conditions could be placed upon the business. These additional conditions can include hours of
17 operation, hours of sign illumination, and lighting of the business during evening hours.
18 The proposed conditional use is one that is specifically listed in the City Code (1635.03(d),pg.
19 16-25) for the zoning district. It is an appropriate use of the property because a similar use exists
20 with the Phillips 66 service station, which is to the south of Unocal 76 on Kenzie Terrace. In
21 granting the conditional use permit, the use will not be detrimental to the health, safety or general
22 welfare of the residents or people working in the area.
23 Chair Bergstrom reiterated that Mr. Bona and his architect had met previously with the Planning
24 Commission in a work session to discuss his proposal.
25 Chair Bergstrom reported that just prior to the meeting tonight the Planning Commission was
26 presented with a petition signed by 15 people requesting that Unocal-76 remove the present
27 shrubs from the berm on 27th Avenue and replace them with Evergreens and Juniper trees
28 planted 4 or 5 feet apart. This would block out all noises made from using air guns and all other
29 noises when doors are opened during the summer and fall months.
30 Ms. Moore-Sykes presented a copy of the petition to representatives of Unocal-76.
31 Commissioner Franzese asked for clarification of condition 2 of Staff recommendation. Ms.
32 Moore-Sykes stated the condition was taken from a similar conditional use permit and would
[ f

1 allow a maximum of 10 cars to be parked on the exterior of the building at one time. The 48
2 hour restriction was meant to discourage long-term storage of vehicles on the site.
3 Mr. Dan Dege, Finn-Daniels Architects, stated Mr. Bona was comfortable with the 3 stated
4 conditions of Staff. He would propose however,that no further restrictions be placed on the
5 conditional use permit as Mr. Bona has proven himself to be a clean and good business operator.
6 He noted the neighbors were requesting landscaping along 27th Avenue to muffle the noise. He
7 stated the existing landscaping was planted by the City and was maintained by Mr. Bona. It
8 would be possible to plant additional landscaping but he would recommend Evergreens rather
9 than Juniper trees as they would be easier to maintain. He also noted Evergreens would need to
10 be spaced further than 4 to 5 feet apart or they would die out.
11 Commissioner Franzese asked the purpose of the 4 parking spaces adjacent to the easement. Mr.
12 Degeexplained the spaces would be used for short-term parking. He stated the proposed addition
13 to the service station was an improvement to the site as it would add more landscaping and
14 improve the access.
15 Ms. Moore-Sykes noted that the City did, at one time, own the property and install the
16 landscaping on 27th Avenue. That land has since been turned back over to the property owner.
17 Mr. Roger Bona stated he was in agreement with the suggested Evergreen plantings as they
18 would look better and be easier to maintain. He noted however,that he had an agreement with
19 the City that they would plant the landscaping and he would maintain it. He has lived up to his
20 part of the agreement and will continue to do so by watering,trimming and making the area look
21 its best. He stated he did not feel he should have to spend an additional $1,000.00 to plant the
22 Evergreens.
23 Chair Bergstrom asked if there were overhead wires which would interfere with Evergreen
24 plantings. Mr. Bona stated there was not.
25 Commissioner Gondorchin asked if Mr. Bona intended to change his hours of operation and if he
26 had received any comments from residents in regard to this. Mr. Bona stated he had no intention
27 of changing his hours of operation. He noted the only comment received was from a neighbor
28 who would like him to increase his hours of operation because she enjoys the activity on the
29 corner.
30 Mrs. Beverly Stafford, resident, stated she loves the service station and the idea of the
31 Evergreens. She felt that Roger does a good job and any plan he has will bean improvement.
32 Chair Bergstrom asked Mrs. Stafford to describe the noise from the service station.
33 Mrs. Stafford stated there is not enough noise. Everyone in her home loves to hear the sound of
34 an engine winding up.

1 Mr. Steve Burnt, Attorney representing Mr. Bona, stated that condition 3 had been intensely
2 discussed by the City Council in 1993. The 48 hour maximum had been dropped as some cars
3 are parked for more than 48 hours waiting for parts. He noted there has not been a problem in
4 the past 4 years
5 Commissioner Gondorchin explained this was a mechanism to guard against abandoned vehicles
6 or vehicles being stored to be used for their parts.
7 Mr. Burnt stated cars would not be stored on the lot to be used for their parts. There had been
8 much discussion of this issue in 1993.
9 Ms. Moore-Sykes stated this condition was also included in the conditional use permit for the
10 Phillips 66 station. She had reviewed the meeting minutes from 1993 and did not recall that this
11 condition had been dropped at that time.
12 Mr. John Jadinak, 2805-27th Avenue N.E., stated the neighbors had requested Evergreens be
13 planted on the berm in 1993. Instead of evergreens small shrubs were placed there. If the
14 addition is approved two big doors will face his house and there will be more noise than there is
15 now. He felt the Evergreens would block the noise and the view of cars.
16 Chair Bergstrom closed the public hearing at 7:27 P.M.
17 Commissioner Franzese noted that a conditional use permit goes with the property as opposed to
18 going with the owner. She asked if the City could impose other conditions on the conditional use
19 permit if the property was sold. Ms. Moore-Sykes stated this would not be possible unless the
20 new owners came before the City Council to do something different with the property.
21 Commissioner Gondorchin suggested condition 2 be revised to disallow the storing of vehicles
22 used expressly for parts and abandoned vehicles. He also questioned if a condition should be
23 included to preclude 24 hour operation.
24 Commissioner Franzese stated she had received a call from someone who was supportive of the
25 project but questioned the scale of the operation.
26 Motion by Gondorchin, seconded by Delmonico,to grant the conditional use permit based on the
27 following conditions:
28 1. The parking areas must have striping for all the proposed parking spaces.
29 2. No vehicles may be stored on-site to be specifically used for the purpose of extracting
30 spare parts and/or on-site long-term storage.
31 3. Change the property address to reflect business frontage on Kenzie Terrace.

7 2. Setback Variance Request- Parking
8 3. Setback Variance Request- Canopy
9 Chair Bergstrom opened the public hearing at 7:40 P.M.
10 Ms. Moore-Sykes reported that Mr. Bona is requesting a front yard setback variance of 32 feet in
11 order to construct a 20 x 24 foot canopy over an existing gas pump island. The proposed canopy
12 will be three feet from the property line but will be at the same height as the existing canopy and
13 like the existing canopy,will have no signage.
14 The architect has stated in the application letter that there is no way to expand the center gas
15 pump island because it is too costly. Moving the gas pump to the center location would impact
16 parking on site as well as the flow of traffic on the property. They also stated that there is a
17 public acceptance of canopies over gas pumps and without the canopy,the gas pump island is
18 viewed as obsolete.
19 In June 18, 1993, memo to City Staff, Attorney Bill Soth identified several potential hardships
20 concerning canopies. He indicated that the cost of moving pumps could be considered a hardship
21 as well as the inability to compete with other service stations should the application be rejected.
22 He said that a canopy is becoming a standard operating practice and can be considered necessary
23 due to the prevalance of self service stations.
24 This memo appears to be the basis upon which St. Anthony has granted variances for gas pump
25 canopies. The City Council approved in the same month a variance request by Jim Sama for the
26 Stop-N-Save at 3259 Stinson Boulevard based on Mr. Soth's information. Mr. Sama requested
27 two 12-foot variances for the canopy that he proposed to construct because his service station is
28 situated on a corner. The southern most corner of the canopy is seven feet from the property line.
29 In October 1993, Dick Freiberg, owner of the Phillips 66 service station, requested a variance of
30 23 feet in order to construct a canopy over the gas pump island. The City Council approved this
31 variance request and allowed the construction of the canopy over the gas pump island that is
32 similarly situated along Kenzie Terrace. Mr. Freiberg had based his request on previous City
33 Council approval of variances for canopies.
Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes
June 18, 1996
Page 6
1 Ms. Moore-Sykes reported Staff is recommending that the variance for the gas pump island
2 canopy as requested by Roger Bona, owner of Unocal 76 be approved. Staff's recommendation
.3 is partly based upon earlier canopy variance approvals and that this request also demonstrated
4 similar hardships to those discussed by the City Attorney. These hardships include the cost of
5. moving the gas pumps, fuel storage tanks, and accessory equipment; public perception the gas
6 pumps are not working or are obsolete; and canopies are considered by the industry as standard ,
7 operating practice. These issues were reflected in their application letter as well.
8 Ms. Moore-Sykes reported Mr. Bona is also requesting a 10 foot variance to park in the front
9 yard parking setback along Kenzie Terrace. They are proposing that this area be restricted to
10 temporary parking only for the purpose of parking cars scheduled for repair.
11 Mr. Bona is proposing an expansion of 5,613 square feet, that will require an additional 19
12 parking spaces. His site plan shows 21 parking spaces on site and two of these parking spaces
13 are in the front yard setback. The old meat market building,will be demolished to make way for
14 a portion of the proposed on-site parking.
15 The application letter indicates that the intention is to park only to the property line, leaving the
16 remaining bituminous surface available for a sidewalk. Again,they are basing their arguement
17 upon the apparent precedent of the surrounding area. As Mr. Finneman states in the application
18 letter, the area has developed a"historical dependence" on using the parking setback of their
19 property for parking and driveways.
20 The City Council has also approved a similar request for Phillips 66. At the same time that the
21 canopy variance was granted to the Phillips 66 service station, Staff also recommended that they
22 be allowed to have a variance to 0 feet for the purpose of providing limited parking to the
23 property line.
24 Mr. Moore-Sykes stated Staff is recommending approval of this variance request. Due to the
25 irregular shape of the property and the nature of their business, the applicant feels it necessary to
26 keep temporary parking on-site. They have purchased property adjacent to the Unocal 76 service
27 station which is being planned for employee and overflow parking. Only the parking on-site will
28 be used for vehicles scheduled for maintenance and repair. As the application lettter states,they
29 considered landscaping the setback,but determined that this effort would be futile because of the
30, snow, ice and salt placed there in the winter from plowing. A more appropriate use was_for
31 temporary parking. They will enhance the landscaping at the front of the building to compensate
32 for the amount of parking that is necessary for the conduct of business.
33 Mr. Dan Dege Finns-Daniels Architect, explained that the landscaping on the site would be
34 enhanced as a result of the setback variance. He explained the new canopy will be small and the
35 height and color will match the existing canopy. There will be no signage or illumination on the
36 canopy.

2 Motion by Gondorchin, seconded by Franzese to recommend approval of the request for a front
'3 yard setback variance of 32 feet for Roger Bona,Unocal 76 service station,2812-27th Avenue
4 N.E. based on its meeting the variance criteria as follows:
5 1. Strict enforcement would cause undue hardship not created by the landowner. This is
6 demonstrated by the public demand for canopies. Also the request is not for pure
7 economic gain. Moving the gas pump would result in the configuration of the island
8 restricting traffic and causing a safety issue.
9 2. Unique circumstances in that this is a redevelopment and expansion of an existing
10 property and.the unique shape of the property.
11 3. Keeping in the spirit of the granting of previous varaince requests for properties in the
12 area including Phillips 66 service station.
13
14 Motion by Gondorchin, seconded by Delmonico to recommend approval of a 10 foot variance to
15 park in the front yard setback along Kenzie Terrace as it meets the variance criteria as follows:
16 1. Strict enforcement would cause undue hardship not created by the landowner due to the
17 unique configuration of the property.
18 2. Unique circumstances in that this is a redevelopment and expansion of an existing
19 property.
20 3. Keeping in the spirit of the granting of previous variance requests for properties in the
21 area including the Phillips 66 service station.
22 Vote on the motions: Commissioners Bergstrom, Delmonico, Franzese, Gondorchin, and
23 Thompson voted aye. Commissioner Makowske abstained.
24 Motions carried.
25 VII. MISCELLANEOUS.
26 A. Concept Review of Proposed Deck and 3-Season Porch- W Lutterman.
27 Ms. Moore-Sykes reported Staff has received an application from William and Susan Lutterman,
28 3433 Croft Drive, to construct a deck and eventually a three-season porch on their property. This
29 will require a back yard setback variance. The applicants are citing the hardship as being unable
30 to fully utilize the property because of its shape and being a comer lot. The deck and the
31 footings and foundation would be completed this summer. The porch would be built next
32 summer.

1 Commissioner Franzese asked how far the adjacent property owner was from the lot line. Ms.
2 Moore-Sykes stated she was unsure but noted Mr. Lutterman had spoken with the neighbors and
3 they have no problem with the privacy or the distance.
4 Mrs. Susan Lutterman, 3433 Croft Drive, stated she did not have the neighbor's side yard setback
5 measurements. She noted that the irons have been identified and this could be measured. She
6 stated they had talked with the neighbors and received verbal agreement in regard to the project.
7 Commissioner Gondorchin stated he liked to see projects of this kind go forward. He
8 acknowledged the odd configuration of the lot and suggested a professional survey be obtained if
9 there was any doubt or confusion as to the actual lot line. He asked why the project would be
10 extended into the next year.
11 Mrs. Lutterman stated the reason was that it had not yet been decided if they would construct a
12 two-season porch or a three season porch.
13 There was Commission consensus to approve of the concept of the variance for William and
14 Susan Lutterman, 3433 Croft Drive.
15 Al. Concept Review of Rezoning Request- Krueger.
16 Ms. Moore-Sykes explained this request was for rezoning of the property to allow another family
17 to live in the lower level of the house and make the home a two-family unit. Ms. Moore-Sykes
18 noted she had informed Mr. Krueger that spot zoning is not done in St. Anthony.
19 Commissioner Gondorchin stated he was in opposition to the request. He felt that permitting
20 residents in the City of St. Anthony to rent rooms would be detrimental to the community.
21 There was Commission consensus that this rezoning would not be beneficial to the community,
22 is down-zoning, and may not be allowed by City Code.
23
24 C. Review of the City's LCA Housing Action Plan.
25 Ms. Moore-Sykes stated this draft would be forwarded to the Met Council following its approval
26 by the City Council on June 25, 1996. The document describes what the City can do and what
27 tools and funds to use, to attract, enhance and maintain affordable life-cycle housing in St.
28 Anthony. It includes benchmarks which the City of St. Anthony currently meets or exceeds and
29 will strive to maintain. She explained the Met Council would like the City of St. Anthony to be
30 more flexible in their land use, allow for larger homes on smaller lots and increase density
31 slightly.
32 Chair Bergstrom asked if the City of St. Anthony had internal funding sources for improvements
33 to residential housing. Ms. Moore-Sykes stated the City did not.
i r

1 There was Commission consensus to encourage some internal program in the City of St.
2 Anthony, ex. low interest loans, for homeowners to utilize for improvement to existing homes.
3. The Commission also suggested the percentage of homes that are owner occupied be tracked. If
4 the percentage dropped it can be utilized as an early warning sign of a declining neighborhood.

6 D. Comprehensive Plan Update.
7 1. Request for Proposal -Engineering Consultant.
8 Chair Bergstrom explained this is a draft Request for Proposal for the Comprehensive Plan. He
9 noted the four points which were identified as the main focus. He stated the request would be
10 sent to six firms on July 1 st and asked Commissioners to forward the names of any other firms
11 which they would like to be invited to bid to Ms. Moore-Sykes prior to July 1 st.
12 VIII. DISCUSSION ITEMS.
13 Ms. Moore-Sykes explained she had received a call from City Attorney Bill Soth regarding the
14 proposed conditional use changes regarding the deletion of pool/billiard halls and motorcycle
15 sales as a permitted conditional use. His advice was to review and treat these uses in the same
16 fashion as adult businesses.
17 Ms. Moore-Sykes explained the new state statue which was adopted last year which sets a 60-day
18' limit for taking action on a rezoning or variance request. If a City does not take action within 60
19 days,the request is automatically approved. She explained the City can request a 60 day
20 extension with reasonable cause.
21 Ms. Moore-Sykes noted.an article which was included in the packet which showed an example of
22 St. Louis Park's Program for Beatification.
23 Ms. Moore-Sykes noted a letter which was received from Cathy Sorenson, Planning Secretary,
24 expressing her appreciation of the opportunity to work with St. Anthony Planning Commission
25 and Staff. The Commission acknowledged the thorough job she had done on the minutes and her
26 ability to capture the essence of a meeting.
27 Ms. Moore-Sykes updated the Commission on the status of the City Hall/Community Center.
28 She reported most of the outer wall is constructed. There has been a slight problem with the clay
29 drying in some areas. The anticipated occupancy date is January 1997 and the contractor is
30 approximately 2.5 weeks behind schedule.
31 Commissioner Franzese noted an article in the Bloomington newspaper in regard to outdoor
32 storage of vehicles. She also noted an article in the Edina newspaper which compared the
33 percentage of shoppers at CUB Food Store,Rainbow Food Store, Lunds and Byerly's. She
34 noted the City of Edina Liquor Store was located in their CUB Foods Store.
35 Commissioner Thompson expressed his appreciation of the new semaphore located at 39th
36 Avenue.

STAFF REPORT
DATE: July 16, 1996
TO: Planning Commission Members
FROM: Kim Moore-Sykes, Management Assistant
ITEM: Rezoning Request - Howard and Dorene Krueger,
3631 Harding Street
BACKGROUND:
Howard and Dorene Krueger have submitted an application for the rezoning of their
property at 3631 Harding Street. As they indicated in their application letter, they are
requesting this zoning change to accommodate their desire to rent out a portion of their
home to unrelated adults. Mr. and Mrs. Krueger explained that their children no longer
live at home, leaving them with a space that is available to rent. This request is also being
put forward because there is R-2 zoning adjacent to their property on.the north side.
Currently, the house has only one kitchen, which they share with their tenants. If they
are granted their rezoning request, they would install an additional kitchen facility in the
lower level, where their tenants reside. Staff have also spoken to Mr. Krueger about the
need to comply with other building and fire code issues.
In 1984, Mr. and Mrs. Krueger initially petitioned for a rezoning of this property. At the
time they were planning to build their home with an apartment on the lower level to
accommodate a parent living with them. The Kruegers indicated that this apartment could
be later turned into an income producing situation for them. Because of much
neighborhood opposition, the Planning -Commission recommended denial of-the -
application and the Kruegers withdrew their application.
ANALYSIS:
The property is in an R-1 zoning district and approving the petitioners' request would
result in "spot zoning", which is counter to the intent of the Zoning Ordinance and the
Comprehensive Land Use Plan.
The purpose of the R-1 Zoning District is to create, promote, and maintain areas which
have low traffic volumes and because of historical development patterns are best suited for
single-family detached residences (1615.01 Purpose.). Single family homes are the only
residential structures permitted in the R-1 Zoning District of the City.
Page 2
The current Comprehensive Plan shows the area as an R-1 Zoning District. In order to
p g
change the Comprehensive Plan, the City is required to file a proposed amendment with
the Metropolitan Council. This process to amend the City's Plan can take up to six weeks
to complete. This is the minimum.amount of time required by the Metropolitan Staff
when evaluating a proposal for minor amendment to the Comprehensive Plan.
Several neighbors have also called City Hall to voice their concern for the neighborhood
should this rezoning request be allowed. They feel there will be an increase in traffic
causing the area to lose its quiet, residential nature. An R-2 Zoning District currently
exists to the north of the neighborhood and the feelings expressed indicate that multi-
family dwellings should remain in those areas specifically zoned for them.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends denial of the application.

We make this request for the following reason. Our children are now-grown and.we, as two
people, reside in a five bedroom home. Two of the bedrooms, bath, family room, utility room,
etc. are on the lower "walk-out" level. We have been renting this area out.to two-professional
adults. We would like to avoid sharing our kitchen with them or providing kitchen facilities
illegally. For this reason we request rezoning. There would be no structural changes in the
building. A two family residence is adjacent to the north of our home.
Respectfully submitted,
Howard W. &Dorene E. Krueger

Dear Dave,
I would like the opportunity to meet with the Planning
Commission to ask for a concept on changing the zone from
R-1 to R-2 for a two family &Telling and variance on lot size.
The property is located at 3631 Harding Street N.E. The
legal description is "That part ofLot 2 lying, North of the
South 41 feet thereof and West of the east 130 feet thereof
inBlock 2, Gardena Acres".'
I would like the zoning change and variance to build
a home that would utilize the walk-out basement as an -
apartment. My purpose is to allow an apartment for a parent
to live in now and having the home as a retirement home
that would provide some income from the apartment rental,
later on.
Sincerely,
Howard W. Krueger

5 At 8:40 p.m. , the Chairman opened the public hearing on the request to rezone
6 the -property at 3631 Harding Street N.E. , from R-1 (single family residence) to
7 R-2 (two family residence) and for the lot size and width variances necessary
8 to construct the proposed duplex on that site. He read the notice of the
9 hearing which had gone out to all property owners within 350 feet of the subject
10 property and none of the 14 persons present reported failure to receive the
11 notice or objected to its content. The Manager indicated he had received only
12 two calls related to the proposal , both in opposition.
13
14 The Commission had, at their last meeting, unanimously given conceptual approval
15 to the Krueger proposal subject to the approval of the neighbors, perceiving
16 that the proposed structure had been so well designed that it would be hard to
17 distinguish from other single family dwellings and it would be built next to
18 another duplex.
19
20 In his May 11 memorandum, the Manager had reiterated that, in addition to
21 rezoning the property a variance would be required, since the lot is 10,400
22 square feet where the Ordinance requires 12,000 square feet, and is only 80
2 3 feet wide, where a width of 85 is required. He had also informed the Commission
24 that the adjacent property owner, Harvey Herzog, 3627 Harding Street N.E. had
25 changed his mind about the proposal , which he now opposes.
26
27 The eight people who spoke all indicated they were opposed to rezoning the
28 Krueger property for rental property, primarily because of the bad experiences
29 they had with the tenants and maintenance of a duplex in the neighborhood.
30 They told various stories of problems with the large number of cars parked
31 outside the duplex all the time, the transient tenants who showed little
32 consideration for the neighbors in their living habits which made the residence
33 a general nuisance for the neighborhood, and downgraded the property of the
34 other residents.
35
36 Mae Gerard, 3621 Harding Street N.E. , said when she had complained about the
37 uncut grass she had been told by the City it had to be ten inches tall before
38 they would do anything about it. She and Carl Jarva, 3632 Harding Street N.E.,
39 questioned why, if the zoning was wrong, the request had gotten to the point of
40 a public hearing. They were told every property owner has the right to make a
41 zoning proposal -and the hearing that evening was the second step in that process
42 which had been set up in the Zoning Ordinance. When Mr. Jarva asked why Mr.
• 43 - Spel lman's request -for -a duplex a few years ago had gone no further than the-----
44 concept review, Commissioner Jones told him that, when that applicant for
45 rezoning realized there would be so much neighbor resistance, he had decided
46 'not to pursue the matter further, since to do so, would involve the payment of
47 an application fee for the public hearing which, in this instance, Mr. Krueger
48 had paid in advance of this hearing.
49
50 Rick Werenicz, 3610 Harding Street N.E., told Mr. Childs the reason he had gotten
51 so few calls about the proposal had been because Mr. Werenicz had canvassed the
52 neighborhood and secured 80 signatures on a petition which "strongly opposed the
53 rezoning proposal", which he then read to the Commission. Those signatures
54 represented 56 households along Belden, Coolidge, Edwards, and Harding and Mr.
55 Werenicz said, only four of the 60 he contacted had indicated they would be in
- 4 -
1 favor of the proposal . He also indicated most of those opposing the rezoning
2 were especially concerned about the use of the property in the event the pastor
3 is transferred, which could very easily happen.
4
5 Mrs. H. McHugh, 3640 Coolidge Street N.E., said she owns rental property and
6 her experience has been that the tenants ruin the property. She said she is
7 opposed to any type of. rental property in St. Anthony. Her sentiments were
8 shared by Jim Mancino, 3626 Harding Street N.E., who said, "tenants are never
9 the same as home owners".
10
11 Commissioner Hansen responded by saying the issue before the Commission should
12 not be renters versus private property owners, but rather, whether or not to
13 rezone the Krueger property as requested. He said the same problems with
14 renters are present when single family homes are rented out in the City and the
15 Chairman commented that he knows a few home owners who are poor neighbors as
16 well . Commissioner Franzese indicated that she perceived an empty lot would
17 not be an enhancement to the neighborhood either.
18
19 When Elmer Beerman, 3622 Coolidge Street N.E.-, asked just what control the City
20 had over the conversion of single family property into double occupancy, the .
21 Manager said the Ordinance provides for relatives living with families without
22 rezoning, as long as separate cooking facilities are not installed. He also
23 said because of the civil rights issues involved, the ordinance had been
24 rewritten to recognize up to six individuals living in a dwelling as constituting
25 a. family.
26
27 The hearing was closed at 9:10 p.m.
28
29 The general consensus of the Commission members was that the neighbor's were
30 not so much opposed to a duplex per se but that their opposition stemmed from
31 their unhappiness with the manner in which another duplex in that neighborhood
32 is maintained and the type of tenants which have come and gone there over the
33 years. Commissioner Jones disputed the impression that all duplexes are
34 maintained so poorly, pointing to several examples in the same area which he
35 believes refute that claim. He suggested the neighbors should report any
36 maintenance, parking, or noise violations to Mr. Childs who is "very accessible",
37 and to the Mayor or Council members who the Commissioner said, are always happy
38 to hear from their constituents. He complimented those present for their
39 vigilance of what is happening in their neighborhood and said it is a rare
40 occurence to have residents avail themselves of their privilege to affect City
41 decisions. The Commissioner_ said, without their opposition, he perceives the
42 proposal would probably have gone to the Council with the Commission's
43 _.recommendation for approval , since they had encouraged the applicant to seek ,_.,__
44 a. public hearing because his proposal had impressed them so favorably before
45 they knew the neighbors would be opposed to it. Commissioner Bjorklund urged
46 those present to continue that vigilance by attending the May 22 Council meeting
47 where, he said, it is possible that the Council would reverse the Commission
48 recommendation of denial . The Manager -indicated that he rather expected the
49 application would be withdrawn once Mr. Krueger learns of the opposition and
50 I he promised to let the neighbors know if that should happen.
51
52 ; Commissioner Franzese said she was prepared to vote for a recommendation of
53 `: denial but was nevertheless sorry the bad experience with another duplex had
54 prompted so much opposition to this proposal which she personally believes,
55 would have produced a well designed home which could have been aesthetically
- 5 -
1 pleasing to the rest of the neighborhood.
2
3 Motion by Commissioner Bjorklund and seconded by Commissioner Jones to recommend
4 Council denial of the request from Howard Krueger for rezoning his property at
5 3631 Harding Street N.E., from R-1 (single family dwelling) to R-2 (two family
6I dwelling) and the accompanying lot size frontage variances, finding that:
71
81 1. There was major and significant opposition to the proposal from the
9 ; neighbors during the May 15, 1984 hearing which was reflected in the petition
10 of opposition signed by 80 persons from that area.
11
12 2. The rezoning would be contrary to the City's land use plans for that
13 : neighborhood.
14
15 : Before the vote was taken, Commissioner Bowerman suggested it might be advisable
16 ; to refer to the lot size deficiencies to which Commissioner Jones responded that
17 he could not accept that friendly amendment because, even if the lot met all
18 zoning requirements, in the face of all the opposition demonstrated that evening,
19 he would have voted against the request. Commissioner Bowerman withdrew his .
20 : amendment suggestion.
21
22 Motion carried unanimously.
23
24 The meeting was recessed at 9:15 p.m. and reconvened at 9:20 p.m. , for the public
25 hearing for a variance to the Fence Ordinance which would permit Ken Heibel to
26 construct an 8 foot 1 -inch by 4 inch cedar board fence on his property at 3341
27 Skycroft Circle.
28
29 Commissioner Bjorklund had left the meeting during the recess.
30
31 In his May 11 memorandum to the Commission on the proposal , Mr. Childs had
32 indicated he would recommend approval of the fence variance as requested, but
33 indicated he would have some reservations about allowing the "ornamental"
34 rafters closer than 3 feet from the property line. No objections had been
35 received from the neighbors and Mike Heibel who represented his father at the
36 hearing, indicated the next door neighbor, Maurice Hugill , 3337 Skycroft Circle
37 had voiced no objections to the plan when it was presented to him. He said Mr.
38 Hugill 's. garage abuts the fence which divides his property from the Heibel 's
39 and there are no living areas on that side.
40
41 No other person was present to speak for or against the proposal and Mike Hei.bel
42 said his family had no intention of. making a roof out of the rafters, but rather,
-43 planned to keep them open for hanging plants, etc. It was also determined_ that
44 the grade elevations on the Heibel property were lower than the neighbors' so
45 an eight foot fence would not look strange where proposed. Commissioner Jones
46 indicated his first impression had been that the fence would be constructed
47 right under the eaves of the house, but having been assured the eaves would be
48 at least two feet higher, concluded that an eight foot fence would probably
49 provide a better balance in appearance than one, two feet shorter. Commissioner
5o Hansen said he agreed, adding that, if the stringers area allowed, the six foot
51 fence would probably be much more objectionable.
52
53 Commissioner Franzese was told that, although the same application forms are
.54 used for fence variances as are used for other variances, the criteria are not
55 the same as for zoning variances.

Motion carried unanimously .
Copies of the letter from Howard 'Krueger, which had been received by
the City Manager , May 22nd, in which the application for rezoning of
the property at 3631 Harding Street N. E . were withdrawn , had been
distributed to the Council members who had concluded there would_ be no
need for action on the Commission recommendation that they deny the
rezoning request .
The Council concurred with the Commission recommendation of approval
of the request for a fence variance at Skycroft Circle .
Motion by Councilman Makowske and seconded by- Councilman Marrs to
follow the recommendations of the Planning Commission to grant a two
foot variance to the City Fence Ordinance requirement which would
allow Ken Hiebel to construct the 8 foot high fence he proposed, with
an open rafter attachment to his house at 3341 Skycroft Circle, con-
tingent upon the rafters being not less than 24 inches on center and
never being covered in such a manner as to constitute a roof or
shelter.

STAFF REPORT
DATE: July 16, 1996
TO: Planning Commission Members
FROM: Kim Moore-Sykes, Management Assistant
ITEM: Variance Petition - C. William and Susan Lutterman,
3433 Croft Drive
BACKGROUND:
Mr. and Mrs. Lutterman, owners of the property at 3433 Croft Drive, have submitted a
rear yard setback variance request of 18 feet so that they may be able to build a porch and
deck on the back side of their house. The house is situated on a corner lot and also sits in
the rear yard setback by two inches. Because they purchased the house as built, they are
unable to make any improvements to this side of the house without a variance.
The construction of this proposed addition will not impact the lot coverage requirement.
Once the project is complete, the total footprint of the residence will occupy 2,861.square
feet, or 24.7% of the total property square footage of 11,586.6. The City Ordinance
restricts lot coverage to 35%.
As they indicated in their letter submitted with the application, a porch and deck addition
to their home would be consistent with other homes in the surrounding neighborhood.
They have contacted their immediate neighbors that would be impacted most by this
addition and received favorable responses from them. Staff have not received any
information from anyone in the neighborhood who objects to the proposed addition.
RECOMMENDATION:
Staff recommends approval of the variance request of 18 feet, provided that the applicants
complete the porch and deck construction within 12 months as stipulated in the City
Zoning Ordinance. The applicants have demonstrated hardships that make it impossible to
improve their property in any way that would make it usable. They purchased property
that has a residential structure already sitting in the rear yard setback thereby precluding
the construction of a porch and deck without a variance. It is also a corner lot which is
required by the Zoning Ordinance to have at least 11,000 square feet. Because of the
unusual configuration of the house, they are unable to make improvements on much of
their property.

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 of land involved, 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 City Ordinance and has not been
created by any persons presently having an interest in the parcel of land.

Planning Commission
City Of St. Anthony
3301 Silver Lake Road
St. Anthony, Minnesota 55418
Dear Commissioners:
As owners of the property located at 3433 Croft Drive, St. Anthony, we are
requesting a variance from the rear set back described in the Zoning Code in order
to construct a porch and deck on the rear of the dwelling.
Because the house is located on a corner (S.E. corner of Croft and Downers), the
set backs have restricted placement of the dwelling so as to preclude any additional
structure without issuance of a variance to the Zoning Code (see attached
certificate of survey). The depth of the lot is 90 feet, and the rear yard is 25 feet.
Strict enforcement of the Zoning Code in this case will cause undue hardship
because it will be impossible for us to improve the property in a usable way.
We purchased the house in November of 1992, and have had no control over the
design or placement of the dwelling. A porch and deck addition such as we
propose is in appropriate porportion to the size of the house (see attached drawing)
and compares favorably to others in the surrounding neighborhood (see attached
elevations).
When the project is complete, the resulting dwelling including the porch and deck
will occupy 2861 square feet of a total property square footage of 11 , 586. This
is 24.7% of the total area--well below the 35% maximum.
The project is planned for completion in two phases. Phase one, to be completed in
the summer of 1996, includes the porch foundation and decking, the contiguous
deck, and appropriate landscaping. Phase two is scheduled for completion in
summer of 1997 and includes finishing of the walls and roof structure of the porch
itself. Both phases will be completed within the limitation of the granted variance.
We believe that granting a variance in this situation is in keeping with the spirit and
intent of the Zoning Code, and we appreciate your consideration in this matter.

ITEM: Proposed Attached Garage Addition - Mr. & Mrs. Bill
Hedberg
Larry met with Mr. and Mrs. Hedberg regarding a garage addition and they have not
submitted anything more than what is currently in this packet. It appears from the
.drawing that they left with Larry that they will need to have a variance for five feet on the
side yard of their proposed addition. Based on the figures from the drawing, they will
continue to meet the lot coverage requirement with the addition.
Mr. and Mrs. Hedberg were informed of the meeting date and time. They indicated they
would attend.

STAFF REPORT

TO: Planning Commission Members
FROM: Kim Moore-Sykes, Management Assistant
ITEM: St. Anthony Health Care Center Addition
Staff met with Mike Miller and his architects on July 9th to go over his plans for the
proposed addition. . He is planning to come before the Planning Commission on August
20, 1996 for consideration of a conditional use permit and variance requests.
The variance requests that he may need are as follows:
1. Parking in the Setback. Mr. Miller will need a 15 foot variance to park in
the setbacks at Foss Road and Chandler Drive. The Ordinance requires a 30
foot setback when the sideyard is adjacent to a public right-of-way. Larry
Hamer indicated that the curb cuts are far enough from both corners so
allowing parking in these setbacks would not obstruct the view for motorists
using both roadways.
2. Lot Coverage. The City Ordinance calls for a maximum of 50% lot
coverage for R-4. The proposed addition and the required increase in
parking will cause lot coverage to increase to 56%.
3. Rear Yard Setback Variance. Because of the close proximity of the existing
St. Anthony Health Care Center and Chandler Place, the addition will
require a 25 foot variance in the rear yard. The Ordinance requires a.rear
yard setback of 40 feet.
4. Side Yard Setback Variance. The SW corner of the proposed addition
requires a variance of seven feet. The Ordinance requires a.15 foot setback
for each side.
Bill Soth will also be copied on the application information for his review and comment.
Mr. Miller is scheduling a neighborhood meeting at Chandler Place for July 15.

ITEM: Replacement.of Bridge on Silver Lake Road, North of
County Road D
Attached is a letter from Ramsey County regarding planned renovations of the bridge over
the railroad tracks on Silver Lake Road. The Council asked that it get passed on to the
Planning Commission for your consideration regarding any landscapping ideas for the area.
It appears that the County is also planning to rehabilitate the surface of Silver Lake Road
from County Road D to Silver Lane.
The Council is interested in hearing from the Commission about any ideas you have for
"streetscaping", which might include lighting, decorative sidewalk surfaces, plantings for the
median, etc. I can take back any ideas that you have to the Council or if the Commission
prefers, the designated Commissioner Representative to the next Council Meeting can
present your ideas and suggestions.

St . Anthony, Mn. 55418
Re : Replacement of bridges over C.P. Rail System track on
Silver Lake Road just North of County Road D
Dear Mr. Mornson,
In accordance with your request for additional information in regards
to the extent of the referenced project and to the level of involvement
requested. of the city on this project, I offer the following:
The principal goal of this project is. to replace the existing bridges
with a new structure . The bridges, particularly the bridge under the
north bound lanes, are rapidly deteriorating and it is evident that
they will not be able to continue carrying the existing traffic loads
in the not too distant future . In order to fit the new bridge into the
.site it will be necessary to totally reconstruct portions .of the
roadway immediately adjacent to the bridges . For aesthetic reasons as
well as addressing certain maintenance deficiencies, the balance of the
roadway between County Road D and Silver Lane will be rehabilitated.
Rehabilitation will consist of milling and overlaying the cracked and
uneven bituminous surfacing, replacing deteriorated catchbasins and.
curb & gutter segments and replacing the bituminous surfacing within
the medians and islands. with a concrete surfacing. Some turn lanes will
be lengthened to better accommodate the volumes of turning vehicles.
Replacing existing signal systems and/or adding additional lanes are
not being proposed.
As to the level of involvement of the- City on this project, the City is
certainly free to select its own level of involvement . Minnesota
statutes require city approval on any County State-Aid or Federal-Aid
funded project which is constructed within the boundaries of a city.
Consequently, the lowest possible level of involvement for the City
would be to simply concur with and approve the County' s proposed
project . This would require minimum City staff time, there would be no
project costs incurred by the City and the City would be supporting the
County in completing the project in a timely manner.
Minnesota's First Home Rule County
printed on recycled paper with a minimum of 10%post-consumer content
A medium or moderate level of involvement would occur if the City
decided to add some of its own items of work to the contract . Typical
examples of this would be replacing aging or inadequate sewer and water
lines, adding more hydrants for fire protection or adding a new
sidewalk along the east side of the project . The City would be
responsible for the costs of their improvements . However, the County
would.provide some cost sharing on related items of work. An example of
this would be; A new sidewalk on the east side may likely require a
retaining wall along the steep slopes near the apartment complex to the
north of the bridges . As the sidewalk work was included in the County' s `
. project, the County would share in the cost of the retaining wall in
accordance with the County' s Cost Participation Policy (copy Provided) .
Public contacts, plans ands specifications and hearings required of the
City portions of work would be included and supported in the County' s
similar tasks .
A high level of involvement would occur if the City decided to do a
"streetscaping" project along with the County' s bridge replacement and
rehabilitation project . Streetscaping may include items such as
Decorative surfacing on sidewalks and median surfaces, decorative
lighting, landscaping, City signs or logos on or adjacent to the new
bridge. Several Cities have been taking advantage of this approach
under County projects . Some Cities. have combined efforts with adjacent
businesses on streetscaping projects as a method of stimulating
additional economic development . City costs would be significant for
this level but there would •be cost sharing available on some of the
items. Public and business. contacts -could be accomplished along with
the County' s public involvement and items of work would be accomplished
under the County' s contract .
In closing, I would repeat that the level of City involvement is pretty
much what the City would like it to be. The County simply asks that the
level of involvement by the City be such that they are comfortable with
the fact that there are no remaining unresolved issues at the time the
County requests City approval .
I look forward to presenting this project to the St . Anthony City
Council on the evening of July 9th. If you would like additional
information before that time, please feel free to contact me at
482-5206 .
Yours truly, Z.

Re: Verkins Addition Lots 2-5
My property adjacent to Highway 88 has been listed for sale as two multiple dwelling
homes and two lots in R1 zoning since July 5, 1995, nearly completing a year. I have
just sold my home at 3220-29th Ave. and am planning to relocate to Phoenix, AZ by
mid-August. I would like to sell all of the property before I leave.
I have been presented a purchase agreement for the four lots and two multiple
dwelling homes in question to be used for new construction of twin or town homes for
resale. My concern is regarding acceptance of this proposed use of the property and
the posture of the City Planning and Council members. The closure of this purchase
agreement is contingent on acceptance of the proposed new use.
Due to the year long dilemma of trying to sell multiple dwelling homes on single-family
zoned property, this new purchase agreement looks like a viable solution and would
like to request that you present this concept to the Council members. I'm confident the
new buyer will present beautiful proposed homes and the end result will be an asset to
the community..
Thank you for your consideration. My daughter, Meryl Verkins will follow up on this
letter to learn what steps need to be taken by me or the proposed buyer.

32 IX. NEW BUSINESS
33 A. Resolution 96-042, re: Issuance and Sale of$1.720.000.00 General Obligation Taxable
34 Tax Increment Bonds.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
June 10, 1996
Page 4
1 Mr. Bob Thistle, Springsted, explained they had gone to market today on behalf of the
2 City of St. Anthony for the issuance of$1,770,000.00 General Obligation Taxable Tax
3 Increment Bonds, Series 1996A. He reported Moody's Investors Service had reaffirmed
4 the City's Al rating. Moody's comments.regarding the fiscal status of St. Anthony
5 included: Excellent location providing easy access to numerous areas; Tax levies are
6 limited to sources of debt service support; and The unreserved general fund balance
7 continues to be above 30%allowing the City to fund its cash flow internally as well as
8 meet 100% of budget needs.
9 Mr. Thistle explained four bids were received today. The low bid was received from
10 Cronin& Company, Incorporated in conjunction with Smith Barney and FBS Investment
11 Services, Inc. at 7.8635%. He noted the interest rate was slightly higher than was
12 anticipated four weeks ago. He explained the key reasons were that there had been very
13 little tax increment taxable debt in the market and the markets were unstable on Friday
14 and today primarily because of the anticipated unemployment rates.
15 Mr. Thistle explained the bond issue will be reduced to $1,720,000.00, which with this
16 interest rate, will allow all the bond payments to be made from the tax increment
17 revenues. He explained the City would receive their final resolution from bond counsel
18 tomorrow. This results in the City contributing a larger portion of funds up front.
19 Mr. Thistle stated it is the recommendation of Springsted that the City accept the low bid
20 of 7.8635% from Cronin& Company, Incorporated.
21 Mornson noted the City's portion of approximately $133,000.00 would be funded from
22 the $300,000.00 the City has set aside and the 10%administrative fee.
23 Motion by Marks, second by Faust to approve Resolution 96-042, relating to
24 $1,720,000.00 General Obligation Taxable Tax Increment Bonds, Series 1996A;
25 authorizing the issuance, awarding the sale to Cronin& Company, Incorporated in
26 conjunction with Smith Barney and FBS Investment Services, Inc. at 7.8635%, fixing the
27 form and details, and providing for the execution and delivery thereof and the security
28 thereof.
29 Motion carried unanimously.
30 B. Resolution 96-037. re: Order Report on Street Improvement Project for 1997.
31 Mayor Ranallo suggested Public Works analyze the cost per mile of street projects in the
32 City and determine how the cost has changed over time.

26 F. Review and Consider Options for Food Service at the Stonehouse.
27 Mornson explained the City changed cooks at the Stonehouse last year to Ernie's
28 Catering Service. The first year of the contract,the City was to share net profits with Mr.
29 Swanson. The second to fifth year Mr. Swanson would be paid 9% of the gross whether
30 or not a profit is made on the food. Based on the first year, the City would have paid Mr.
31 Swanson approximately $1,100.00 per month resulting in a $13,200.00 loss. Mornson
32 explained Mr. Swanson is open to negotiations. Mr. Swanson has submitted a proposal
33 to rent the kitchen. Mornson explained he would like to have the new Liquor Store

15 VII. REPORTS.
16 A. Planning Commission June 18, 1996.
17 1. St. Anthony Unocal 76 Service Station:
18 a. Conditional Use Permit
19 Planning Commissioner Bergstrom was present at the meeting to report on three requests
20 made by Mr. Roger Bona, owner of the Unocal 76 Service Station, 28122-27th Avenue
21 NE. The Planning Commission held a public hearing on June 18, 1996, to consider a
22 conditional use permit request to allow Mr. Bona to build an addition to his existing
23 service station to increase the number of repair bays. The proposed expansion is 5,613
24 square feet and requires an additional 19 parking spaces. Mr. Bona is proposing to install
25 21 parking spaces on site and to construct 14 additional parking spaces on an adjacent
26 piece of property that he recently purchased. The Planning Commission had met with
27 Mr. Bona and his architect in May for a concept review of the proposal. Staff
28 recommended approval of the conditional use permit based on the following three
29 conditions:
30 1. The parking areas must have striping for all the proposed parking spaces.
31 2. No more than 10 cars stored on the site for no more than 48 hours. This.would
32 also include the parking area across the alley from the business.
33 3. Change the property address to reflect the business frontage on Kenzie Terrace.
34 Bergstrom reported that just prior to the Planning Commission meeting on June 18, 1996,
35 he was presented with a petition signed by fifteen residents in the neighborhood
36 requesting that the present shrub plantings in the berm on 27th Avenue be removed and
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
June 25, 1996
Page 3
1 replaced with Evergreens or Juniper trees planted 4 to 5 feet apart. The intent would be
2 to provide a visual screen and also muffle the noise of the service station. Management
3 Assistant Moore-Sykes had noted that historically the City had owned the property where
4' the berm was located and had done the planting. The property has since been turned over
5 to Mr. Bona with the understanding that he would maintain it. Mr. Bona had estimated it
6 would cost$1,000.00 to remove the existing plantings and replace them with Evergreen
7 trees.
8 Bergstrom reported the Planning Commission discussed the difficulty of enforcing Staff
9 condition#2 regarding the storage of cars on site. They also discussed hours of operation
10 of the service station. Mr. Bona stated he had no intention of changing the hours of
11 operation. Mrs. Beverly Stafford, resident, testified at the public hearing that she likes
_.. 12 the service station, enjoys the traffic and hearing the engines wind up.
13 Bergstrom stated the Planning Commission is recommending City Council approval of
14 the conditional use permit based on the following conditions:
15 1. The parking areas must have striping for all the proposed parking spaces.
16 2. No vehicles may be stored on-site to be specifically used for the purpose of
17 extracting spare parts and/or on-site long-term storage.
18 3. Change the property address to reflect business frontage on Kenzie Terrace.
19 4. Consideration of incorporating the use of Evergreen landscaping on a consensus
20 basis of the parties of Mr. Bona, the neighbors who have submitted a petition and
21 the City of St. Anthony.
22 Bergstrom added that based on his personal experience, Mr. Bona is an exemplary
23 business citizen of the community.
24 Councilmember Faust asked if residents adjacent to or abutting the property had testified
25 at the public hearing. Bergstrom stated there were no residents opposed to the expansion.
26 The only request was for the Evergreen plantings.
27 Mayor Ranallo questioned the definition of"long-term" in regard to car storage.
28 Bergstrom explained the intent was to prevent cars from being stored on the site for the
29 purpose of stripping them for parts.
30 Mr. Roger Bona stated the current restriction for car storage is no more than 10 to 14 days
31 and that has been comfortable. Any less than that could be harmful to his business.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
June 25, 1996
Page 4
1 Mr. Steve Burnt, Attorney representing Mr. Bona, stated this issue had been discussed at
2 the City Council meeting in 1993 and the result was that no restrictions were placed on
3 the storage of vehicles except that cars would not be kept on site to use for parts.
4 City Manager Mornson noted currently the restriction is that inoperable vehicles may not
5 be stored on the site for more than two weeks.
6 ,There was Council consensus that inoperable vehicles may not be stored on the site for
7 more than two weeks.
8 Mayor Ranallo questioned who would be doing the Evergreen landscaping on the berm.
9 Mr. Dan Dege, Finn-Daniels Architects, stated he believed a possible solution would be
10 for Mr. Bona, a representative of the property owners who signed the petition and City
11 Staff to meet and discuss this issue. If an agreement can not be reached, the City can
12 make the final determination. He noted Mr. Bona is intending to plant five Blue or
13 Colorado Spruce trees of five feet in height in the berm area.
14 Mayor Ranallo noted it was not the City's role to be the intermediary in resolution.of this
15 issue. He asked Mr. Jadinak if he would be satisfied with the planting of five evergreens
16 in the berm.
17 Mr. John Jadinak, 2805-27th Avenue N.E., stated he would be satisfied as long as the
18 trees would block the view and would look better. He noted Mr. Bona does maintain the
19 property well.
20 Mr. Bona stated he would prefer not to pay for the Evergreen trees but if that would
21 resolve the issue he was agreeable.
22 Motion by Wagner, second by Enrooth to grant the conditional use permit for Roger
23 Bona, Unocal 76 Service Station, 2812 - 27th Avenue N.E. based on the following
24 conditions:
25 1. The parking areas must have striping for all the proposed parking spaces.
26 2. No inoperable vehicles may be stored on-site for longer than two weeks.
27 3. Change the property address to reflect business frontage on Kenzie Terrace.
28 4. The planting of at least 5 or 6 Evergreen trees of 5 to 6 feet in height in the berm
29 on 27th Avenue.
30 Motion carried unanimously.

2 C. Setback variance - canopy
3
4 Commissioner Bergstrom reported that Mr. Bona is requesting a front yard setback
5 variance of 32 feet in order to construct a 20 x 24 foot canopy over an existing gas pump
6 island.
7 The Planning Commission is recommending City Council approval of the variance based
8 on its meeting the variance criteria as follows:
9 1. Strict enforcement would cause undue hardship not created by the landowner.
10 This is demonstrated by the public demand for canopies. Also the request is not
11 for pure economic gain. Moving the gas pump would result in the configuration
t . 12 of the island restricting traffic and causing a safety issue.
13 2. Unique circumstances in that this is a redevelopment and expansion of an existing
14 property and the unique shape of the property.
15 3. Keeping in the spirit of the granting of previous variance requests for properties in
16 the area including Phillips 66 service station.
17 Motion by Faust, second by Enrooth to approve the front yard setback variance of 32 feet
18 for Roger Bona,Unocal 76 Service Station, 2812 - 27th Avenue N.E. based on the
19 findings of the Planning Commission.
20 Motion carried unanimously.
21 Commissioner Bergstrom reported Mr. Bona is also requesting a 10 foot variance to park
22 in the front yard parking setback along Kenzie Terrace. These parking areas would be
23 used only for temporary parking of cars scheduled for repair.
24 Mr. Dege, Finn-Daniels Architects, explained the request pertained to four stalls and was
25 necessary due to the shape of the property. It is not atypical of properties in the area to
26 have hard surface out to the sidewalk. He noted the landscaping of the property would be
27 enhanced by the addition of landscaping to the front of the site.
28 Faust asked how it would be physically ensured that cars would not park over onto the
29 sidewalk. Mr. Dege stated striping would be used for this purpose and that Service
30 Station personnel would be parking the vehicles in this area.
31 Commissioner Bergstrom stated the Planning Commission is recommending approval of
32 the 10 foot variance as it meets the variance criteria as follows:

1 1. Strict enforcement would cause undue hardship not created by the landowner due
2 to the unique configuration of the property.
3 2. Unique circumstances in that this is a redevelopment and expansion of an existing
4 property.
5 3. Keeping in the spirit of the granting of previous variance requests for properties in
6 the area including the Phillips 66 service station.
7
8 Motion by Enrooth, second by Wagner to approve the 10 foot variance to park in the
9 front yard parking setback along Kenzie Terrace based on the Planning Commission
10 recommendations and that it is supported by all parties involved.
11 Motion carried unanimously.
12 2. Housing Code Plan Update.
13 Commissioner Bergstrom explained that during the goal-setting retreat last winter,the
14 City Council charged the Planning Commission to review the City Code and processes
15 and make recommendations on how the City can improve residential housing. City Staff
16 provided the Commission with.a list of residential housing which had received multiple-
17 letters from the City and also copies of the letters which had been sent, so they could see
18 the nature of code violations,the relative number of residences so affected, and
19 personally view the houses. On May 21, 1996, the Planning Commission held a work
20 session along with the City Manager and City Public Works Director to discuss
21 observations, experiences, and concerns.
22 The consensus of the Planning Commission is that the City building and housing code do
23 not need to be rewritten. The issue which needs to be addressed is enforcement of the
24 existing codes. The chronic conditions of most concern to the Director of Public Works
25 generally included:
26 -Long term storage of large quantities of used construction materials
27 -Storage of unlicensed vehicles which were being stripped for parts
28 -Accumulation of miscellaneous"debris" in yards, including isolated auto parts
29 -Regular parking of vehicles on lawns, and
30 -Lack of housing maintenance, including structural problems.
31 Bergstrom reported the Planning Commission makes the following recommendations:
32 1. Specify deadlines for compliance in letters of violation.
33 2. Specify what actions the City will take if corrections are not made by the deadline.
34 3. Revise Section 1335.03, Subd. 21, to read"Debris" rather than"Refuse" and include
35 "auto parts". The Public Works Director indicates that the word"refuse" can be highly
r J
City Council-Regular Meeting Minutes
June 25, 1996
Page 7
1 inflammatory to residents. The addition of"auto parts"would make the cleanup of
2 miscellaneous auto parts more enforceable.
3 4. Revise Section 1335.11 to include "used building and/or construction materials not to
4 be used at the residence". This would provide an unequivocal tool for prohibition and
5 enforcement of such storage.
6 5. Annual compilation/summary of complaints, violation notices by City Staff and
7 compliance with City notices. This would be useful for long term comparison, would aid
8 the City from being accused of being arbitrary and capricious, and could also serve as an
9 indicator.
10 6. Public education of City codes in the City newsletter.
11 7. Prepare a brief layman's summary of City code restrictions as they relate to residential
12 property. This could be included with the violation letter or given to new residents.
13 8-. Aggressively pursue purchase and redevelopment of substandard residential housing
14 by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority.
15 9. Create a City-sponsored residential improvement fund.
16 Faust asked if the City could charge the residents for City code violations that were not
17 corrected which the City had to correct themselves.
18 City Attorney Soth stated this cari be done only in hazardous situations specified by state
19 statutes. There must be a safety and health issue involved. The most effective way to
20 deal with code violations is the issuance of citations and prosecution.
21 Mayor Ranallo and Councilmembers thanked the Planning Commission for their efforts
22 and suggested the recommendations be given to City Manager and City Attorney for
23 implementation.
24 3. Request for Proposal for Comprehensive Plan.
25 Commissioner Bergstrom presented the Request for Proposal for Comprehensive Plan
26 and explained that the issues of water, sewer and transportation infrastructure took a
27 subordinate role as these systems were all in place. The four focus points are Residential
28 Redevelopment, Commercial/Industrial Redevelopment, Land Use/Zoning, and Emerging
29 and Other Issues.
30 Motion by Wagner, second by Enrooth to accept the Request for Proposal for
31 Comprehensive Plan and submit for bids.
32 Motion carried unanimously.

8 pancake breakfast in conjunction with the Salvation Army 75th Anniversary Celebration.
9 C. Mayor.
10 Mayor Ranallo had no report.
11 D. City Manager.
12 City Manager Morrison reported the City is working with the Exhaust Pro building
13 owners on an expansion which was approved when they initially moved into the mall.
14 This will include repairs of the parking lot, etc.
15 Morrison reported his attendance at a meeting with the architects and project manager of
16 the CUB Foods Store. They are planning to apply for the building permit on August 1,
17 1996, are anticipating approximately 28 weeks of construction, and feel the building and
18 roof will be erected by November 1, 1996. The grand opening is scheduled for March 1,
19 1997.
20 Morrison reported he offered the City's Liquor Operations Manager position to Mike
21 Larsen, Liquor Operations Manager for the City of Fridley. On Monday morning he
22 accepted the offer. He will start on July 15, 1996. The City is still working with First
23 Bank, Schoening Group, and OPUS on the SAV II relocation and are extremely close to
24 resolving the financial aspects.
25 Morrison reported the City will be closing on the CUB bond proceeds the end of July.
26 Mornson reported after two weeks of renovations of the Stonehouse parking lot by the
27 Public Works Department,there is now consideration of doing some type of
28 improvement to the entire parking lot. The City intends to ask Midwest Asphalt for a bid
29 for the improvements.
30 Morrison reported the Apache Wells' last day of business is Saturday, June 29, 1996.
31 Most of the equipment is going to the Stonehouse. There are three or four restaurant
32 auction houses who are interested in the equipment the Stonehouse does not need. The
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes
June 25, 1996
Page 9
1 process would be that the auction house would buy the equipment and then have a sale in
2 the building.
3 Mornson reminded Councilmembers there is no work session scheduled for July 2, 1996.
4 The next work sessions are scheduled for July 30, 1996 and August 6, 1996. Senator
