10 Fighters Association for posters to Jenny Solz and Christina Werenicz.
11 Appreciation was extended to the parents for their support of the contest.
12
13 Silver Point Park Hockey Rink
14 Calls regarding possible closing of the hockey rink at Silver Point Park had
15 been received by the City Manager. Burt said their consideration for
16 combining the hockey into one area at Central Park was made due to a
17 number of complaints from residents about the noise. Because the
18 temporary water treatment plant didn't come out of the park in time, there
• 19 were no plans for a hockey rink at the Central Park location this winter. A
20 report by the rink attendant indicated that the rink received little use. As a
21 result, a decision was made to close it. However, a resident persuaded Burt
22 to reconsider and the hockey boards will be up.
23
24 To resolve the noise problem, Burt said the ice will be maintained after 7
25 a.m. 'The ice rink will not be perfect but it will be well maintained. Mayor
26 Ranallo assured those attending that the rinks would have good ice.
27
28 Bruce Holten,.2909 Rankin Road, heard Silver Point hockey rink would be
29 closed. Mr. Hamer confirmed. Holten was upset because he and others
30 didn't know anything about the decisions being made. As a parent he
31 prefers to see kids only have to go a few blocks to a rink. And he was
32 concerned that if hockey was only set up at one rink, kids would play hockey
33 on the rink and that would make it unsafe for others.
34
35 Those attending wanted to be assured that in the future residents will be
36 notified if there is such a consideration.
37
38 Mark Kozlak, 2612 Murray Avenue, said that the rinks do get a lot of use
39 and it good to have hockey separated. Because there is no parks director,
40 Kozlak felt it was important the residents knew about the issue. The papers
41 should report it.
42
Regular Council Meeting 4
November 13, 1990 •
1 Enrooth remarked that if the number of people present had attended the
2 Council meeting when those upset with the ice rink noise problem were
3 objecting, they probably could have avoided the controversy at this meeting.
4
5 Pat Taylor commented from the audience that she learned about the issue
6 from Makowske. She said the residents don't know what is being discussed
7 and encouraged better use of the newsletter:
8
9 Burt said that the issue was not new, usage is down and there is a budget
10 crunch. The budget crunch that Burt referred to has occurred in the past
11 two years called the reduction of aid--federal government to state and state
12 to city. The City has lost over $150,000 in state aid last year and another
13 $80,000 going into 1991 in state aid. To maintain status quo would take a
14 12% increase in taxes.
15
16 Dan Statz, 2837 Coolidge, said he shoveled the ice rink so they would have a
17 safe place to skate. Kids want to keep it open.
18
19 Mayor Ranallo thanked the parents and kids who attended the meeting and •
20 said, "Please use the hockey rink."
21
22 Schoollssues
23 June Stuhr, 3403 Maplewood Drive, introduced herself as a two-year
24 resident and veteran of the Levy Referendum wars. Her concern about the
25 loss of the Levy was the impact she believes it will have on the community
26 and home depreciation. She indicated that some parents are seeking their
27 own solutions about schools instead of waiting for decisions to be made by
28 the School Board.
29
30 Mayor Ranallo expressed his desire for those on both sides of the Levy issue
31 to learn more about what is going on.
32
33 Marks said that the council is concerned about the impact on the spirit of the
34 community when schools close.
35
36 7. REPORTS

38 A. Council.
39
40 Mayor Ranallo attended the library meeting on October 25 and encouraged
41 the director to restore the hours. The City will be on a grace period until
42 May of 1991. He thanked Mark Kozlak for also attending and speaking on
43 the issue.
44

5 Chairman of the Committee.
6
7 Last week police reports include 7 or 8 breakins between 3 and 5 a.m. Burt
8 reported the burglars have the same m.o. and they are very organized in
9 what they are doing. The City has put a lot of overtime-in trying to find
10 these people. They steal cash. People need to protect themselves by locking
11 their doors and windows.
12

14 people are preparing to go to Salo, Finland.

22
23 Marks attended the Intergovernnmental Committee Meeting on the Ramsey
24 County Regional Railroad Authority November 6 and reviewed light rail
25 corridors that will be picked for travel into downtown.
26
27 Makowske read her resignation from the St. Anthony City Council to
28 become Hennepin County Commissioner January 1, 1991.
29
30 Mayor Ranallo accepted her resignation he said, "with mixed emotions" and
31 expressed the importance of having someone serving as a County
32 Commissioner who will represent our community well.
33
34 Makowske said she appreciated the support she received. Her new office
35 number is 348-4288.
36
37 Makowske said that MTC has requested from the Minneapolis Park Board to
38 allow Route 25 to travel on Stinson Blvd. November 14 the Ramsey County
39 League of Local Governments is meeting to discuss access to the community
40 through cable TV. She recommended that those who are interested in
41 serving on the Cable Commission to be notified of the meeting. She also
42 attended the Fall.Concert of the Orchestra and about 15 people attended.
43 Improvement in publicity is imperative.

Regular Council Meeting 7
November 13, 1990
1 C. Street Light Charges and Assessments for 3500 block of Skycroft Drive.
2
3 Burt said a letter from NSP was received today. A notice from affected
4 residents would have to be obtained before any action is taken. NSP
5 estimates about $900 in costs; trees and shrubs will be dug up; and
6 easements will have to be obtained. Wooden poles are recommended with
7 above ground wires because of the least effect on the property owner and
8 easier maintenance for NSP. Soth prepared an ordinance to give the city the
9 ability to'bill the residents. The ordinance will take 3 readings to be passed.
10
11 Howard Smith, 3512 Skycroft Drive, said he has been "living in the dark" for
12 close to 27 years. He said that the residents have been meeting for several
13 years and they would like the lighting on the south side with underground
14 wiring. They are willing to pay the difference. 28 or 29 residents agree
15 with this proposal.
16
17 Burt recommended that Smith and Benson from NSP meet with him to
18 discuss the location of the sites.
• 19
20 Motion by Enrooth, second by Wagner to approve the first reading of
21 ordinance No. 1990-010.
22 Motion carried unanimously.
23
24
25 D. Computerization
26
27 Several local firms were interviewed regarding City computerization. After
28 much consideration, Burt recommended purchasing hardware and software
29 from Business Records Corporation, a national company that has been in
30 business with data processing for 16 years. There service is also used in
31 Columbia Heights.
32
33 The money is available and there would be no need for additional staff. The
34 program would combine the liquor and general funds expenditure books into
35 one. Reports can be prepared right on the spot. Projected to save the City
36 over $35,000 over a five-year period.
37
38 Bob Heilbrink from Business Records answered questions and concerns about
39 their program. He said that police, fire and the liquor store can feed in. The
40 system .would not compromise police records.
41
42 The training cost is built into their costs. 22 cities in Minnesota using this
43 system have formed a User Group that meets quarterly.

2 6. PUBLIC HEARINGS:
3
4 A. 7:35 P.M. Nedegaard Construction for Evergreen Townhomes,
5 3412 Silver Lane, sign variance.
6
7 The hearing was opened at 7:35 with no one present reporting failure to
8 receive the notice of hearing or objecting to its content.
9
10 Assistant to the City Manager VanderHeyden reported the Evergreen
11 Townhomes signs have been reduced in size and the Nedegaard Company is
12 asking to place one sign each on four different monuments. In addition, if
13 approval is recommended of-the four signs, the consideration would be for
14 the aggregate sign surface area allowed which is 150 sq. ft., Nedegaard is
15 requesting 200 sq. ft.
16
17 With regard to monuments and sign height, City Attorney, Bill Soth, said that
18 if the monument were not approved as a sign they would then have to be
19 considered as part of the fence. VanderHeyden met with City .Manage Tom
20 Burt and Public Works Director, Larry Hamer, and reported that Nedegaard
21 was allowed to build the monuments originally because of the Parade of •
22 Homes with the understanding that unless a sign variance was given, it
23 would be the Company's responsibility to remove or move them. Nedegaard
24 agreed.
25 Whether they are allowed a sign variance will be decided at the City Council
26 meeting next week.
27
28 Regarding the fence height, VanderHeyden said she, Burt and Hamer called it
29 a front yard setback. She added that it should not have been called a front
30 yard setback because it does not sit on the front yard of any townhome, it is
31 on the side yard and back yard. In addition, by calling it a front, back or
32 side yard setback or a setback from the right-of-way, she said it is all a 30
33 foot setback; therefore, it does not change what was necessary. It is serviced
34 by an internal roadway. All the way around it is gjtside. It is a back or side
35 yard setback and not a front yard setback.
36
37 For clarification, Hansen sketched his interpretation of front yard.
38 VanderHeyden commented that the roadway is a private drive. Discussion
39 continued regarding the decision of whether the area in question is a "front
40 yard." VanderHeyden said that she, Burt and Hamer made the
41 determination because of-the way the fence runs along the back and side
42 yards and in no way physically runs along the front of one of the
43 townhomes. VanderHeyden also confirmed that that issue is not before
PLANNING COMMISSION 3
November 20, 1990
• 1 them during this meeting; but that the three would meet again to review the
2 problem.
3
4 Madden asked if Burt decided not to attend Planning Commission meetings.
5 VanderHeyden confirmed that was the under standing.when she was hired.
6
7 Brownell added that sig months ago there was lengthy discussion regarding
8 the determination of "front yard."
9
10 Faust wanted to know whether the fence issue had ever been brought up
11 before. Madden said he brought up the issue that there was a significant
12 drop-off from street level down to the grade inside the townhouse complex.
13 His concern was for pedestrians who could be endangered. Because the
14 basement was put in incorrectly, there was a variance request for setback.
15 Madden suggested that a fence be added. VanderHeyden said that a fence is
16 required by the State Housing Code.
17
18 Brownell clarified that the request is for a sign and the structure is a sign.
19 VanderHeyden said that this is referred to as the sign surface area. In this
20 case'r Brownell pointed out, the facia of this monument is considered the
21 surface area--not the other three sides.
22
23 Hansen said the only other single side examples would be signs on surfaces
24 of buildings.
25
26 Public hearing opened at 7:47.
27
28 David Newman from Nedegaard Construction Co. said the signs are aesthetic
29 and attractive in appearance. To his knowledge no one opposes the signs.
30 Newman maintained that the hardship exists with 37 property owners who
31 should have signs at the two driveways entering the property. The signs
32 will not be lit. Because the monuments are distinctive, Newman said they
33 are part of the effort to achieve a neighborhood effect.
34
35 Madden reminded Newman that addresses should not be included on signs
36 at the entrances of the horseshoe roadway. He said that should a request
37 come back asking for addresses, the initial variance would then be null and
38 void. Newman said that from his experience, there is no need for addresses.
39
40 Werenicz found a discrepancy in measurements. Newman assured the
41 Commissioners that the Company would prefer to be a bit under what was
42 stated in size. Werenicz said the importance of whether-the measurement is
43 50 or 43 sq. ft. for the plans makes a difference in whether the discussion is
PLANNING COMMISSION 4
November 20, 1990
1 about 4 monuments, 3 monuments; and 1 or 2 variances to grant. If the 4 •
2 are not allowed, it may not even be an issue.
3
4 Hearing closed at 7:59 p.m.
5
6 Hansen said the issue is the way the signs are placed, not the number of
7 signs. These signs are not visible at night and are difficult to see. He feels
8 he is-being asked to approve a monument which may violate the fence
9 height. He also disagrees with the neighborhood identification and is more
10 inclined to like the open space. Although Hansen is not opposed to the 4
11 signs and square footage,. he is also opposed to the way the signs will be
12 placed and their interpretation as a sign. In fact, he said they could be a
13 safety hazard because of poor visibility.
14
15 Faust said he reviewed the questions and supports the variance. First, the
16 variance is not going to be detrimental to anybody. Second, while it may not
17 be a hardship to the Company, the residents probably want the area marked.
18 Third, with regard to being unique to this project, Faust said that the
19 arrangement is aesthetically correct.
20
21 Werenicz said it is not unique and he is totally opposed to 4 signs. He also •
22 believes the other driveway needs to be marked. He does agree that it is
23 aesthetically pleasing. Autumn Woods only needed 2 signs because theirs
24 were angled.
25
26 Brownell said he had the same problem with 4 signs and agreed with 2 signs.
27 However, then he said there would be a question as to what to do with the
28 other sides of the monument.
29
30 Murphy agreed with Faust that the 3 conditions are present for granting a
31 variance.
32
33 Madden agreed that the monuments are pleasing, symmetrical and meet the
34 3 conditions.
35
36 VanderHeyden clarified that if only 2 signs are approved, the monument
37 would have to be dealt with as part of the fence.
38
39 Motion by Madden , second by Faust.that the Planning Commission
40 recommend to the Council that Nedegaard Construction Company, 1814
41 Northdale Blvd., Coon Rapids, be granted a variance to put up 4 signs, 50" x •
42 20" for a total of 8.65 sq. ft. each, total sign surface area being 34.6 sq. ft.
43. which is below the 50 sq. ft. allotted by the City Ordinance, finding that no
PLANNING COMMISSION 5
November 20, 1990
• 1 one appeared in opposition and finding further that the 3 questions required
2 by the Ordinance have been answered correctly. In addition, if the owners
3 should come back for an additional variance for. more signs, that the
4 additional variance be declared null and void and that the Company be
5 required to make a new application.
6
7 Aye: Madden, Faust, Murphy.
8 Nay: Hansen, Brownell, Werenicz
9 Motion failed,
10
11 Werenicz said his idea would be a compromise. He cannot see having 2
12 identical monuments at another driveway one block away that is half the
13 width of that driveway. He would not mind a third, angled monument being
14 placed there.
15
16 Hansen said there is a better sign and that is why he disagrees with the
17 proposal. The signs cannot be seen and they are virtually impossible to see
18 at night.
19
20 Werenicz said that 2 entrances do not justify 4 monuments 10 ft. high.
21
22 Faust did not agree with using Autumn Woods, a much larger complex, as a
23 comparison. He said the proposal is good with the 37 full-time residents and
24 has an inviting application to the City because it borders on New Brighton.
25 He does not think it would add any balance to have 3. In fact, Faust said one
26 at the second entrance would make it appear as a lower or service entrance
27 vs. a main entrance. He did agree that the measurements need to be
28 corrected.
29
30 Murphy said 2 signs is the variance. The question, he said, is whether the
31 community is being harmed in any way by approving the 2 additional signs.
32
33 Hansen said there is a difference between granting 2 or 4 signs and likened
34 driving through downtown Crystal with the Las Vegas strip. He also said
35 that this same developer came back to the City for an additional variance.
36
37 Madden said that the positioning of the signs should be the privilege of the
38 developer.
39
40 Murphy questioned whether the Company would consider coming back with
41 other plans.
42
PLANNING COMMISSION 6
November 20, 1990
1 Brownell suggested the compromise of moving the monument without the •
2 sign to the far eastern end of the property to satisfy the hardship question.
3 Madden said this would not change his.mind from his original position.
4
5 Werenicz said he still believes the vote is 3/3. Madden indicated he did not
6 believe 3 signs would look as nice; but he would consider compromising on 3
7 signs. Faust said that 3 are good, four are better.

16 Franzese reported to Madden that there is a problem in some suburbs with
17 aerials bcing put up for celluar phone systems. Without protections, these
18 suburbs are finding high aerials erected that they did not know were going
19 up. VanderHeyden said she would check whether the City had any
20 protections or permissions regarding this issue.

23 Chairman Madden said that he preferred not to have approval of the
24 Agenda. He would like the Commissioners to add any item at any time to the
25 Agenda.

28 Brownell asked if there was a sign request from Marquette Bank.
29 VanderHeyden said that the City has been contacted for information.
30
31 Action requested on unsafe house
32 Hansen wants something to be done with Pirino's house that was moved into
33 the neighborhood. The house is not safe; and they are not conforming to City
34 codes. VanderHeyden said letters have been sent and the building inspector
35 has been working with them. Hansen is also concerned because they were
36 given a certificate of occupancy which means the house is safe for living.

Sue VanderHeyden, Assistant to the City Manager
=TEM :. NEDEGAARD (EVERGREEN TOWNHOMES) REQUEST FOR A SIGN VARIANCE
Nedegaard Construction Company, Inc., of Evergreen Townhomes, 3412 Silver Lane, is requesting
a variance to the City sign ordinance to allow four monument signs instead of the permitted one
monument sign per multi-unit development. Each of the proposed signs is 50 inches by 25 inches
or 8.65 square feet. The four signs would total 34.6 square feet, which is below the 50 square feet
allotted by the City Sign Ordinance.
If the Planning Commission recommends approval of this part of the variance, the Commission
must then consider the aggregate sign surface area. Each sign monument is 10 feet by 5 feet or
50 square feet. The four monuments total 200 square feet. The City Sign Ordinance allows for an
aggregate sign surface area of 150 square feet. The variance would be to allow the extra 50 square
feet of sign surface area.
The Planning Commission had a number of concerns when this variance request was first presented
in September. Staff has since obtained additional information.
Monuments: The City Attorney informed staff that if the monuments are not approved as a sign
structure, they then must be considered to be part of the fence, therefore requiring a variance for
the height, or removal. Staff fully informed Nedegaard that the additional monuments should not
be built until the variance for additional signs was approved and that if the variance was not
approved, it would be Nedegaard's responsibility to remove the monuments or obtain a variance
for them.
Fence Height: The height of the fence is 5 feet with the top of the post being 6 feet. Because the
complex is serviced by an internal roadway, the front of the structures (facing the roadway) are
considered to be the front yard, therefore the fence has not been interpreted by staff to be a front
yard fence, but a side yard and back yard fence. When the setback variance was granted to
Nedegaard, it was referred to as a front yard setback. However, it should have been referred to
as a variance from the right-of-way. The City Zoning Ordinance requires a side yard adjacent to
a street to have a 30 foot setback as well as a back yard setback of at least 30 feet. Because the
units along Silver Lane consist of both back and side yards, the setback variance required would
have been 30 feet, therefore having the same end result.

RE: Evergreen Sign Variances
Dear Sue:
Pursuant to the request of the Planning Commission at their
September 18, 1990 meeting, enclosed you will find two items:
• 1. A copy of the .sketch of the monument that holds
the sign. Please note that I have inserted the
dimensions on this drawing.
2. A copy of the drawing that was prepared for the
sign that was actually inserted on the monument.
You will note in this drawing that while the sketch.
originally indicated dimensions of 51 inches by
36 inches, the company that constructed this sign
eventually reduced it to 50 inches by 25 inches.
Also we have measured the fence. The fence itself is 5 feet
above ground with the elevation of the top of the post being
6 feet.
If you should need any further information please do not
hesitate to contact me.
Sincerely yours,
avid P4. AGm an

NOTICE OF HEARING
SIGN VARIANCE
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Notice is hereby given that there will be a public hearing by the
Planning Commission of the City of St. Anthony on Tuesday, November
20, 1990 at 7: 35 P.M. . Public Hearings are held in the Council
Chambers of the City Hall, 3301 Silver Lake Road (enter northeast
corner of the building) . The Planning Commission will meet to:
Consider a request by Nedegaard Construction Company, Inc. ,
Evergreen Townhomes, located at 3412 Silver Lane, for a
variance to the City Sign Ordinance to allow four monument
• signs instead of the permitted one monument sign per multi-
unit development.
Each sign is 50 inches by 25 inches for a total of 8. 65 square
feet. The total sign surface area for all four signs would be
34 . 6 square feet, which is below the 50 square feet allotted
by the City Ordinance.
In addition, if the above request is recommended for approval,
consideration will also be given to the request for a variance
to the City Sign Ordinance to allow 200 square feet (each
monument being 10 feet by 5 feet or 50 square feet) of total
sign surface area. The Ordinance allows for only 150 square
feet of aggregate sign surface area.
Anyone wishing to be heard with reference to the above matter will
be heard at said time and place. Questions regarding this matter
may be referred to the City Manager, 789-8881.

18 Motion by Werenicz, second by Hansen to approve the minutes of the
19 August 21, 1990 Planning Commission minutes.
20 Motion carried unanimously.
21
22 Murphy and Brownell arrived at 7:33.
23
24 COMMISSIONER FAUST TO REPRESENT PLANNING COMMISSION AT
25 SEPTEMBER 25, 1990 CITY COUNCIL MEETING.
26
27 Chairman Madden announced that Commissioner Werenicz attended the last
28 City Council meeting in his place. Commissioner Faust will attend the nest
29 Council meeting.
30
31 PUBLIC HEARINGS:
32
33 NEDEGAARD CONSTRUCTION FOR EVERGREEN TOWNHOMES; SIGN
34 VARIANCE REQUEST.
35
36 The hearing was opened at 7:35 with no one present reporting failure to
37 receive the notice of hearing or objecting to its content.
38
39 Assistant to the City Manager VanderHeyden reported that Nedegaard wants
40 to place one sign on each of its four monument structures. The signs are
41 within the fifty square feet sign surface allowed by the ordinance and they
42 are also well-constructed and very aesthetically pleasing to the area. Staff
43 feels it is a reasonable request.
44 Motion carried unanimously.
45
PLANNING COMMISSION 2
MINUTES, September 18, 1990
1 In response to Hansen's question as to whether the staff was shown the
2 location of the four signs that were not included in the packet,
3 VanderHeyden said yes. Hansen said that it is important that detail of this
4 type be given to the Planning Commission prior to the meeting.
5
6 Madden clarified that the sign in the packet was not the same sign that was
7 erected.
8
9 Hansen asked if the applicant consulted with staff before the construction of
10 the monuments and whether they were ever given any indication regarding
11 permission for signage. VanderHeyden said they had consulted with staff
12 and that no commitment had been made regarding signage.
13
14 Brownell was concerned about the height of the fence. Werenicz added that
15 when that issue came up previously it was suggested that there might be a
16 request for a hand rail because of the drop in the grade.
17
18 Murphy said that the ten feet and 150 square feet overall plus the
19 monument indicates that maybe the variance should address that as well.
20
21 Brownell said there is a height problem, plus the 150 square foot problem,
22 plus the actual number of signs and the actual dimensions which may not be
23 correctly stated. He said he is also concerned about the height of the fence.
24
25 Madden asked for a picture of the sign. The Commissioners reviewed the
26 photos and plans brought to the meeting by a representative of the
27 Company..
28
29 VanderHeyden said that the first she learned of the change in signs was
30 tonight's meeting.
31
32 Madden said that while the development appears to be a welcome addition
33 to the community. He doesn't want the Company to feel the Commission is
34 nit-picking but the petition is lacking. However, there is need for clear
35 definition and actual sign design presented in advance. And the front yard
36 fence height should be addressed
37
38 Faust questioned whether all the information has been provided to the
39 Commission and to the public for a public hearing.to even be opened.
40
41 David P. Newman, from the Nedegaard Construction Company apologized for
42 any confusion caused. He clarified that a separate sign company constructs
43 the signs. He asked that the public hearing be opened because the request
44 for sign variance was less in scope than what was presented to the public.
45
PLANNING COMMISSION 3
MINUTES. September 18. 1990
• 1 The public hearing opened at 7:51.
2
3 Newman first responded to the height question: city staff had reviewed the
4 dimensions of the monument including the height. The original proposal was
5 eight feet. That was changed to seven feet and staff was satisfied that it
6 conformed with city ordinances. Mr. Newman confirmed that there were no
7 agreements made regarding signage. The Company believes that is it
8 beneficial to have the monuments on both sides of the street. The place of
9 four signs is for one on each side of the driveway.
10
11 Newman said reasons for placing the variance request is because there are
12 two driveways entering the project and both should be marked. This
13 signage would give balance. He discouraged use of the median for signs.
14 Should the request be denied by the Commission, Newman said the Company
15 can live with one sign but this would present problems with identity and
16 aesthetics.
17
18 Hansen asked about the identification of addresses served by both
19 driveways.
20
21 Newman said it could be required but the residents would probably prefer
22 just to inform guests of east or west entrance. The Company is trying to
23 have signage that is neat and uncluttered and would like to move on with
24 the project. They are pleased with their relationship.with the community.
25 Although they would like to move on, the issue is not critical for them.
26
27 Discussion ensued regarding difficulty in finding addresses.
28
29 The hearing was closed at 8:06.
30
31 Hansen said that he-cannot see where the request meets the second or third
32 conditions called for in the Minnesota Statutes in that it does not pose a
33 hardship,nor are the conditions of this portion of land unique in that it
34 should require additional signage. He feels that there are a numbers of
35 different types of signs that could mark entrances. In addition, he said that
36 Council has been taking a very tough approach to these requests and this one
37 wouldn't be treated differently. Hansen supports one sign for each entrance
38 and believes four are unnecessary.
39
40 Brownell finds the project aesthetically pleasing but is opposed to granting
41 the variance in its present form because there is no hardship and no
• 42 necessity for four signs. He also believes the monuments are too high and
43 that this might also be a variance problem. .He recommended tabling the
44 motion for additional.information or denial.
45
PLANNING COMMISSION 4
MINUTES, September 18, 1990
1 Murphy said that incomplete packets made the decision more difficult. He
2 agreed the development looks nice and signs on each monument will make
3 the project look more finished and balanced.
4
5 Hansen would like a definition of the monuments and how they are
6 classified.
7
8 Motion by Brownell, second by Hansen to table the petition until next
9 month and that the petitioner be provided with.a copy of the minutes of the
10 meeting so that he will know the concerns of the Planning Commission and
11 provide the additional information requested.
12
13 . Murphy asked to add to the motion a request to address the four points of
14 concern: Height of monument; total Square footage of the structures and of
15 the signage itself; the fence height issue; and clarification of whether it is a
16 monument or fence.
17
18 Brownell and Hansen aocept.ed the addition to the motion.
19 Motion carried unanimously.
20
21 As a result of tabling, the request will not appear on the City Council agenda.
22 Mr. Newman clarified that the fourth request in the motion should be �.
23 directed to staff.
24
25 MISCELLANEOUS:
26
27 Chairman Madden stepped down from his position and Vice-Chairman
28 Hansen conducted the remainder of the meeting.
29
30 STREET ADDRESS REQUESTED
31
32 VanderHeyden said there was no precedent they could find to make a
33 decision on the request for the address change. Staff would like a
.34 recommendation.
35
36 All people involved were notified of the meeting. The only party who did
37 not support the change never commented on the issue.
38
39 Madden asked for the change because the addresses face Foss Road but are
40 listed as 37th Avenue.
41
42 Hansen said that access from 37th Avenue doesn't make sense. •
43
44 Faust expressed concern for safety and confirmed that 911, et al would be
45 informed of the changeover.

ITEM: RESTRUCTURE OF 1985 DEBT
In 1985, the City of St. Anthony sold $2, 125, 000 of General
Obligation Tax Increment Bonds- to fund a.- redevelopment- project
undertaken by the Housing and Redevelopment Authority.
The proceeds of the bonds were used to provide funds for the
Kennzie Terrace Redevelopment Project. This money was used to
acquire .land, pay for certain public improvements and pay the costs
of the H.R.A. incurred in connection with a redevelopment plan.
These bonds have a call-in feature (February 1, 1991) . St. Anthony
can now call-in these bonds and restructure this debt at a lower
interest rate. (The net interest rate on the original issue is
• 7 . 65% and current interest rates are averaging 6. 270) .
At the October 2, 1990 work session, Council directed staff to look
for stability in interest rates and advise Council of the proper
time to restructure this debt. Since then, interest rates were
closely monitored and the criteria of $35, 000 savings for 30 days
now has been met.
The current analysis, prepared by Springsted, Inc. , indicates a
cost savings of $ 38, 914 for rebonding. Their advice is to
restructure the 194 through 198 debt and leave the current 192 and
193 debt in tack. The City will avoid paying the call in premium
in the two years in which there is no cost savings in rebonding.
Overview
1) $35, 000 savings for 30 days now exists.
2) Restructuring of 194 through 198 debt.
3) Current savings of rebonding = $38,913
4) Cash outlay = $ 0. 00 dollars. The payment
of $ 150, 950 has to be made whether or not
St. Anthony rebonds this debt.
5) Reduces the City's total debt.
Current Cost Savings for Call-in of Existing Debt:
Existing Debt $ 2,756, 150
Final 2/1/90 Payment ($ 150,950)
New Debt ($ 2 , 573 ,986) **
Gross Savings $ 31, 214
Revenues:
Proceeds Interest $ 3, 610 1/16/90 through 1/31/90
investment earnings.
Sinking Fund Interest $ 4, 089
TOTAL REBONDING SAVINGS $ 38,913
* Total cash outlay for rebonding is 2/1/90 principal and interest
payment.
** These costs are part of the new debt.

Recommendation
Council call the 194 through 198 debt, set the sale date and
conduct a special H.R.A. Council Meeting (December 18, 19, or 20 to
comply with publications requirements) to sell the new bonds.
Mr. Thistle will be present at this meeting with the proper
resolutions and paperwork to initiate the process.

public utility company or other appropriate parties.
Section 620:10. Record of Cost. The Director of Public Works will keep
records of and report to the City Clerk the actual cost of all special street
lighting work, and, in the case of costs to be charged prior to the time
they are incurred, the estimated cost of such work. In either case, such

under this Section, will be charged with such frequency as the Council
by resolution from time to time determines, to each owner of each
separate lot or parcel of land benefitted by the special street lighting, in
