15 MEETING MINUTES.
6 Motion by Enrooth, second by Wagner to approve the December 6, 1995 Truth in Taxation
Public Hearing meeting minutes as presented.
18 Motion carried unanimously.
19 V. DISCUSSION ON SETTING 1996 BUDGET AND TAX LEVY.
20 Mayor Ranallo explained_this was a continuation of the December 6, 1995 Truth in Taxation
21 Meeting. The budget had been presented at that meeting. Mayor Ranallo indicated discussion
22 tonight would be only of taxes related to the budget.
23 Mr. Roy Peterson, 3112-36th Avenue, indicated he remembered being told that the building
24 program for the school would only increase his taxes by $100.00. He stated his taxes had
25 increased by $400.00. He felt if the school asked for support of another increase, they would
26 have a hard time getting senior citizens or people without children in school to support it.
27 Mayor Ranallo stated he understood but this was not the School District public hearing.
28 Discussion was limited to City taxes.
29 Mr. Peterson asked how much his City taxes had increased.
30 Councilmember Enrooth explained that depended on his valuation increase. He noted most
31 homes in St. Anthony had increased by $5,000.00 to $10,000.00.
02 Councilmember Wagner explained the $400.00 increase in his taxes accounted for total taxes,
33 including school, City and County.

1 Mr. Obert Amundson, 3217 Wendhurst questioned why apartment owners taxes decreased and
2 homeowners taxes increased.
3 Finance Director Roger Larson explained that apartment valuation had decreased by 14.3%. The
4 City of St. Anthony is a community which is fully developed. 73% of the properties are
5 residential, 12% apartments and 12% commercial. If one area of the tax base in the community
6 decreases, the other portions will increase.
7 Mayor Ranallo reported the City had received a letter today indicating that Apache Plaza has
8 again been allowed a reduction in assessed valuation. The previous market value was
9 $6,830,000.00 with taxes of$441,502.84. The market value has been reduced to $6,000,000.00
10 which results in taxes of$387,577.18. He noted the State Legislature has changed the manner in
11 which apartment buildings are taxed and apartment buildings are decreasing in value.
12 Mayor Ranallo noted he had received a comparison of the assessed value and actual sale price of
13 three homes which had recently sold in St. Anthony. 3009-29th Avenue sold for $118,000.00
14 and the assessed market value was $108,000.00 or 91%. 2513-36th Avenue sold for$109,000.00
15 and the assessed market value was $87,400.00 or 80%. 3216 Rankin Road sold for$127,000.00
16 and the assessed market value was $117,000.00 or 85%. These assessed values are low
17 compared to State requirements which expect the assessed value to be between 93%-100% of the •
18 sale price.
19 Councilmember Elect Faust noted low interest rates have a large effect on apartment values.
20 Low interest rates allow more people to qualify for loans and apartment owners are not able to
21 raise the rent. This results in apartment valuations decreasing.
22 An unidentified resident noted the market value of his home had increased$14,000.00 in the last
23 two years and only $6,000.00 in the previous four years.
24 Mayor Ranallo suggested contacting areal estate agent and having the house appraised. If the
25 resident did not feel he could sell his home for the assessed market value, he could contact the
26 assessor's office and ask them to re-assess the home. The next step would be to attend the Board
27 of Review meeting in the Spring.
28 Enrooth noted if the City of St. Anthony did not increase their budget at all and valuation of a
29 home increased by $5,000.00 to $7,000.00, the resident would still experience an increase in his
30 taxes due to the increase in valuation.

5 VII. REPORTS.
6 A. Mayor.
7 Mayor Ranallo reported his attendance at a meeting last night where Opus Corporation
8 gave a presentation regarding locating CUB Foods in Apache Mall. He noted Mr. Finn
9 was in attendance and voiced his objections. Opus Corp. and First Bank, however, do
10 have a strong commitment from CUB Foods. They intend to install three ponds. The
11 water will drain into the ponds and then drain into Silver Lake when it reaches a certain
12 level. Mr. Finn's major objection is that he wants all the ponds installed before CUB is
13 built. Mayor Ranallo noted City Manager had spoken with Joan Aarons, CUB Foods and
14 she is very positive. Mayor Ranallo stated Opus Corp. is following all the drainage
15 requirements of the Environment Quality Board.
16 City Manager Mornson noted this will require a five-lot split. The first lot will be CUB •
17 Foods, lots 2 and 3 will form two vacant lots on Silver Lake Road by 39th Avenue, lot 4
18 will be First Bank, and lot 5 will be the rest of the mall including Tires Plus, etc.
19 Mornson noted SuperValu would have to submit their application by January 11, 1996
20 for it to be considered at the Planning Commission meeting on January 30, 1996. If
21 approved, it would then be considered at the February 13, 1996 City Council meeting.
22 He noted it may also necessitate a special meeting to stay within the required timeframe.
23 Mayor Ranallo explained the reason for the urgency was that the tax increment financing
24 district expired in April of 1996 and also CUB Foods would like to open in early fall.
25 Mornson reported First Bank is authorizing their engineering firm to work with the Rice
26 Creek Watershed District to prepare an environmental worksheet on their own behalf. He
27 noted this is what the homeowners had petitioned for last year which had delayed the
28 project. The only impact will be positive as they intend to install three ponds where there
29 are currently no ponds.
30 Mayor Ranallo reported he had been contacted by Peter McLaughlin, Hennepin County
31 and asked to serve on a committee with two to three other Mayors and meet with the
32 County Commissioner to discuss issues such as the housing issue. He stated he has
33 accepted and meetings will start in January of 1996.

1 Councilmember Fleming stated she felt this was an excellent idea and encouraged Mayor
2 Ranallo to bring the message expressed by the residents at the past two City Council
3 meetings. Taxes have to be cut.
4 Mayor Ranallo presented a plague of appreciation to Councilmember Elect Jerome Faust
5 for his five years of service on the Planning Commission.
6 Councilmember Elect Faust thanked the City Council. He stated he had learned a lot and
7 felt the Planning Commission had a lot of good ideas and people.
8 Mayor Ranallo presented Councilmember Dorothy Fleming with a plague expressing
9 great appreciation by the City Council and members of the community for her dedication
10 and commitment for the past five years serving as a City Councilmember.
11 Councilmember Fleming expressed her appreciation to the Councilmembers and the
12 community.
13
14 B. Council.
15 Councilmember Wagner expressed an unofficial greeting from the 50th State. He noted it
is tradition there for the Mayor and City Council to decorate the outside of City Hall and
7 the departments have a competition for the best decorations inside the building.
18 Councilmember Fleming thanked the Fire Department for their Christmas festivities for
19 the City. She also asked that the City send a letter of appreciation to Nativity Church for
20 their beautiful decorations on Silver Lake Road.
21 Mayor Ranallo reported the Fire Department had also collected Toys for Tots. He noted
22 there was a tremendous response. Monday night the toys were loaded onto the sled on
23 top of the firetruck and delivered to Channel 11 to be delivered.
24 Mayor Ranallo commended the camera person who video taped the 50th anniversary.
25 This was scheduled to be shown on the cable channel five times but unfortunately was
26 pre-empted three times.
27 Councilmember Enrooth asked if electrical outlets could be installed on the exterior of
28 the north end of the new City Hall/Community Center for future Villagefest activities.
29 Councilmember Marks reported he was also in attendance at the meeting last night in
30 regard to Apache Mall. He stated he was very pleased as Opus Corp. had not only
31 worked with large developments previously but also had a strategic plan and great
�2 understanding of the marketplace. He noted the Development Director lived in New
3 Brighton and remembered Apache when it was successful. Marks stated he felt this was
34 an incredibly positive situation.

3 VIII. PUBLIC HEARING - None.
4 IX. NEW BUSINESS.
5 Mr. Terry Taylor, Sports Boosters, distributed a handout illustrating the cash disbursement
6 analysis of the last three years and.also year-to-date. He noted there is a drastic decrease of over
7 60%. He noted the decrease was due to the business atmosphere of Apache Wells and the
8 Stonehouse. Mr. Taylor asked if the City could take some action to improve the business
9 atmosphere of these establishments.
10 Mayor Ranallo noted business for the City has increased at the Stonehouse. He reported there is
11 a work session scheduled in January of 1996 to discuss the situation at Apache Wells. He noted
12 the City is in the process of trying to negotiate a different lease for Apache Wells with First
13 Bank. If this does not occur,there is a possibility that the off-sale store will be moved to the
14 Apache Wells location when their lease expires in August of 1996.
15 Enrooth asked if Mr. Taylor had any data in terms of pull-tab receipts of other organizations •
16 within the state or other area municipalities.
17 Mr. Taylor indicated from information he has received other establishment's business appears to
18 be up. He noted there are only five or six other municipal establishments in the state and he was
19 unaware of their status.
20 Mornson noted there were four Resolutions for consideration. Two were for premise permits and
21 two were for lease agreements. He stated the rent will remain stable at$800.00 per month. He
22 reported he had'contacted the Charitable Gambling Board and the average rent statewide was
23 $803.00. A condition has been added to both leases that the lease will automatically terminate if
24 the City elects to quit the on-sale liquor business. Morrison confirmed this was a two year lease
25 whose term was April 1, 1996 to March 31, 1998.
26 Marks asked if the Sports Boosters balance was depleted and if Mr. Taylor felt the decrease in
27 business was due to family problems as discussed recently in the Minneapolis paper.
28 Mr. Taylor reported as of tonight, the Sports Boosters have an account balance of approximately
29 $20,000.00. He reported a special meeting will be held on Saturday night to determine the
30 disbursement of the funds as the account has to be depleted by December 31, 1995 or the funds
31 are subject to a 35% tax. He again stated he felt most of decrease in business was due to the
32 business atmosphere at Apache Wells and the Stonehouse.
33 Marks commended the Sports Boosters for their work but noted he was unable to support •
34 gambling due to ethical reasons.

2 E. Sports Boosters Contribution for the New Gym.
3 Jim Kozarek, President of Sports Boosters, stated he had enjoyed working with the City,
4 the School Board, Community Services and all the people who help the organization in
5 the mutual interest of the children of St. Anthony. He noted without the help of all these
6 organizations the mutual interests could not be obtained and the Sports Boosters would
7 not be what they are today. He reported at-their last meeting the Sports Boosters Board
8 had authorized the donation of at least $10,000.00 for the gym in the new City Hall/
9 Community. Center. He noted there is a possibility this figure could increase to
10 $20,000.00. He noted the new gym will be a vast improvement and stated he looks
11 forward to working with the City, School Board, and Community Services in the future.
12 Mayor Ranallo stated the feeling was mutual and asked Mr. Kozarek to thank all the
13 coaches for all the work they do in the community. He noted if it wasn't for organizations
14 like the Sports Boosters, he didn't know what the children would do. Mayor Ranallo
15 stated that almost 100% of the funds raised from charitable gambling are used in the City
16 of St. Anthony. He thanked the Sports Boosters for the contribution to the new gym. He
17 expressed the intent of requesting the Kiwani's, Lions and other organizations in the •
18 community to help fund a new scoreboard for the gym.
19 Mr. Kozarek stated he felt these organizations would be interested in funding a
20 scoreboard. He commended the members of the Sports Boosters for a wonderful job of
21 running the organization.
22 Mr. Obert Amundson stated he had never supported Apache Wells being located in the
23 Mall.
24 Mayor Ranallo noted it had been a profitable business at one time. This issue would be
25 discussed at a work session in January 1996.
26 Mayor Ranallo asked that Councilmembers arrive a 6:30 A.M. tomorrow morning to
27 prepare the Employee Appreciation breakfast.

1 in their church in Elk River, Minnesota. As is stated in the letter accompanying their application,
2 there are several members who reside in the Twin City area who would benefit from having a more
3 centrally located place of worship.
4
5 Ms. Moore-Sykes explained that the Solid Rock Church has negotiated a lease for space with Welsh
6 Companies, Inc., pending the granting of a Conditional Use Permit by the City. The space that the
7 Solid Rock Church is interested in leasing is located across the corridor and to the north of the
8 Apache Wells Sports Bar and Restaurant. This is a desirable location for the.Church because it is
9 easily accessed from the parking lot. In discussing their application with Staff, they were advised
10 by Staff of the close proximity to Apache Wells; Pastor Matthews was not concerned about the
11 closeness to the Apache Wells.
12
13 Ms. Moore-Sykes continued that Staff submitted the Church's application to the City Attorney's
14 office for review. The City Attorney indicated that the Church's application does not fully meet all
15 of the conditions as required by the Minnesota Statutes and the City Ordinances. It is a use that is
16 specifically listed as a conditional use for the zoning district in which it is to be located. It can be
17 assumed the proposed conditional use will not be detrimental to health, safety or the general welfare
18 of persons residing or working in the vicinity. The City Attorney referred to the City Ordinance
19 reference regarding compatible use in Section 1665.04, Subd. 3 (b), and states that the Council may •
20 specify the conditions that it deems necessary to make the use compatible with other uses in the area.
21 The City Attorney indicated it is clearly not compatible to any of the retail businesses that are
22. currently doing business in Apache Plaza. His question is, are there any conditions that the City
23 could impose that would make the Church's use compatible to the other uses within Apache Plaza.
24 He is concerned that the location of the Church in Apache would be injurious to property values and
25 that it is probably not a desirable location for the Church.
26
27 Ms. Moore-Sykes noted that Staff has received a few calls from the business community stating their
28 opposition to the Solid Rock Church locating in Apache Plaza. Ms. Moore-Sykes noted that there
29 have also been a few calls from the residents that support the granting of a Conditional Use Permit
30 to the Church.
31
32 Ms. Moore-Sykes indicated that based on the City Attorney's findings and reservations, Staff
33 recommends that the Planning Commission deny the application for a Conditional Use Permit.
34 -
35 Chair Bergstrom asked if there were any questions for the Staff.
36
37 Commissioner Makowske questioned that if a Conditional Use Permit is recommended, what types
38 of limits could be attached. Ms. Moore-Sykes indicated that the City Attorney was not able to advise
39 what conditions would make the use more compatible.
40 Pastor Matthews, Pastor of the Solid Rock Church, explained that the Solid Rock Church is an •
41 established church and that this site would be an extension for those that attended the church that
42 reside in the Twin City area. Pastor Matthews further explained that they would be meeting early

• December 19, 1995
Page 3
1 Saturday evenings, possible 5:00 or 6:00 p.m., and that the space has outside access so that it
2 wouldn't be an inconvenience to Apache Wells.
3
4 Commissioner Faust questioned if the Church in Elk River has a store front. Pastor Matthews
5 responded that it did not.
6
7 Commissioner Faust asked how the Church determined that Apache Plaza would be a good location
8 for their Church. Pastor Matthews answered that parking,easy access,and low cost were all factors
9 in their decision. He further explained that a one year lease was negotiated, so there was no long
10 term commitment,and that the Church would bring income as well as be an asset to the community.
11
12 Commissioner Franzese indicated that Apache Plaza is currently planning a major redevelopment
13 and expressed that the Church may want more stability in choosing a location for their site. Pastor
14 Matthews responded that the lease was for one year only and that they were willing to find a new
15 location after a year, if needed.
16
17 Chair Bergstrom expressed concern about the compatibility of use, noted the proximity of the
18 proposed space to Apache Wells, and that Saturday evening services raised some concerns. Pastor
19 Matthews questioned if it was thought that the Church would hinder business for Apache Wells. He
indicated that another space could be chosen for the Church further from Apache Wells, but that the
1 one chosen has outside access, large open space and restrooms.
22
23 Pastor Matthews indicated that other malls currently have churches as tenants and that it increases
24 mall income because people will shop and visit restaurants after services.
25
26 Commissioner Makowske suggested if Sunday mornings wouldn't be a better choice for services
27 than Saturday evening. Pastor Matthews explained that he is currently holding Sunday morning
28 services in Elk River, so it would involve obtaining another pastor, which the Church in unable to
29 do at this time.
30
31 Commissioner Makowske questioned if services would be held on other days, such as holidays.
32 Pastor Matthews responded that be a possibility.
33
34 Commissioner Horst questioned if there were currently other plans for the Church, such as youth
35 meetings. He expressed that there may be other sites that would work better if that was the Church's
36 plan. Pastor Matthews suggested if the congregation grew that office hours, counseling
37 appointments may be set up. He indicated that children services or daycare would not be done at
38 this site initially.
39
40 Terese Reiling of Welsh Companies, Inc., explained that they represent First Bank and currently
1 lease and manage Apache Plaza. She noted that Apache Plaza was in transition, and that 300,000
2 square feet are currently vacant. She further noted that 11 of the 20 tenants are on a month-to-month
43 lease, and they anticipate notices to vacate after January 1. Ms. Reiling explained that leasing to the
Planning Commission Regular Meeting Minutes
December 19, 1995 •
Page 4
1 Solid Rock Church would be a stop-gap measure to try to reduce the out of pocket money from First
2 Bank and that they would be accommodating the Church as well. She explained that the space was
3 chosen because of the restrooms and the separate entrance. Ms. Reiling also noted that Apache
4 Wells has approached Welsh Companies regarding rent relief or lease termination possibility.
5
6 Commissioner Horst noted Apache Plaza is a retail center and that it is not the proximity to Apache
7 Wells that is a concern,but that a Church may be stifling to retail development. Ms. Reiling agreed
8 that Apache Plaza is ideally for retail tenants, but it is difficult to find tenants that are willing to do
9 short term leases with no improvements to the space, which is expensive. She explained once the
10 redevelopment occurs, more retail tenants will be sought, but in the interim they will be selective.
11 Ms. Reiling noted that it is a one year lease only,with no options to renew, and the space would be
12 open for larger tenants in the future.
13
14 Chair Bergstrom noted the issue is not a church next to a liquor establishment bar, but that the City
15 Attorney interprets the whole mall, and that it may open Apache Plaza up for more zoning
16 compliance issues.
17
18 Jim McNulty, 2921 33rd Avenue N.E., questioned if the Solid Rock Church is the same church that
19 holds services at J.C. Penney's. Pastor Matthews responded that it was not. Mr. McNulty expressed
20 that the community is upset about the taxes and that the City shouldn't halt redevelopment at Apache •
21 Plaza. He further expressed that First Banks should move forward quickly on the redevelopment,
22 obtain tenants, and not concentrate on their income.
23
24 Bob Johnson, Silver Lake Road, agreed with Mr. McNulty. He further expressed that a overall plan
25 should first be considered for Apache Plaza.
26
27 Sherrie Granrud, 3112 Croft Drive,expressed that Apache Plaza needs to bring in large income for
28 the community and that we should be concerned about the best use of the property. She also
29 expressed that a church would only benefit the community.
30
31 Chair Bergstrom closed the Public Hearing at 7:26 p.m.
32
33 Commissioner Franzese expressed the Church's goal is laudable and First Bank is a good company,
34 but the use is incompatible. She further expressed the City prides itself on planning, and she cannot
35 support this Conditional Use Permit.
36
37 Commissioner Gondorchin motioned, seconded by Franzese, that the application for a Conditional
38 Use Permit for the Solid Rock Church be denied based on Zoning Ordinance 1665.04,that a church
39 is not a compatible use in a commercial zone.
40 Motion carried unanimously. •

4 VII. CONCEPT REVIEW.
5 Chair Bergstrom opened the discussion on the Concept Review at 7:31 p.m. There was no report
6 from the Staff.
7
8 Jay Scott, Director of Development of Opus Corporation, reported that his company is currently
9 representing First Bank and SuperValu as a development consultant with a possibility of long term
10 ownership. Mr. Scott reviewed the first phase of the Apache Plaza redevelopment which will
11 include a free standing Cub Foods store with approximately 70-75,000 square feet over two lot areas.
12 Mr. Scott also reported that some restaurant or retail/restaurant combination will most likely be
13 included at a future point. Mr. Scott noted that there are other plans being reviewed, but they are
14 concentrating on the first phase first.
15
16 Mr. Scott indicated there is motivation by everyone involved to move ahead quickly with planning
17 and to get approvals through the Planning Commission and City Council so construction can begin
18 late spring or early summer in 1996. He reported that they will be completing the subdivision
application to the City in approximately two weeks, with the hopes of a special hearing to review
wo quickly, or by February, 1996 at the latest.
21
22 Chair Bergstrom asked that Mr. Scott give a visual review of the entire site plan for the Commission.
23 Chair Bergstrom asked how firm Cub Foods is for the redevelopment. Mr. Scott replied that Cub
24 is the driving force at this point. He indicated that they have a purchase agreement for the land sale
25 to Cub, and that Opus will be involved in the demolition and construction of the building. He
26 indicated that there are buildable lots of 7,500 square feet each, and that Opus has been identifying
27 potential users with a number of contacts at this point. Mr. Scott indicated that they have a good feel
28 for the nature of use for the development with potential casual family dining,coffee shop,bagel shop
29 uses.

31 Chair Bergstrom questioned if there will be one or two major buildings within the footprint of the
32 existing building. Mr. Scott replied that 25% of the existing 400,000 square feet building will be
33 demolished.
34
35 Commissioner Gondorchin questioned if there were to be four major anchors in the development.
36 Mr. Scott replied that the shaded areas on the site plan represent existing ongoing development
37 plans, and that Opus' intent is to be involved throughout the Apache Plaza redevelopment, though
38 that was not the focus. He continued that their plan was to develop a commercial type shopping
39 center or"power center",and that New Market may be demolished at this point and made potentially
smaller.

1 Chair Bergstrom asked for clarification of a power center. Mr. Scott explained that it is a new
2 concept in shopping development with a major strip center including a "category killer" store that
3 is dominant in a number of categories, such as a Target, Walmart, Pet Food Warehouse, Menards.
4 Mr. Scott noted that a power center includes a cluster of these types of stores within the center, but
5 not under one roof.
6
7 Commissioner Makowske questioned if the New Market planned for the corner part in the site plan
8 would be the same arrangement that was planned in the first redevelopment plans a year ago. Mr.
9 Scott replied that although he was not familiar with the original plan, the intentions were that the
10 SuperValu franchise would be operated by the Cub Food store.
11
12 Dwight Jelle, Westwood Civil Engineer Services, spoke to the Commission regarding the drainage
13 issues of the redevelopment. He reported that they were currently working on the Environmental
14 Assessment Worksheet for the site, and that the redevelopment would involve the demolition of the
15 some of the parking areas and buildings,with the bank building remaining. Mr. Jelle indicated that
16 the site breaks off down the middle and that the new construction will drain into a phased,three pond
17 system in the front and tie into the storm system on Silver Lake Road. He indicated that they are
18 currently working with the Rice Creek Watershed District and the City to meet all guidelines, and
19 noted that it is a great opportunity to decrease the hard surface area on the site and to treat the water
20 in the area.
21
22 Commissioner Gondorchin questioned if the Environmental Assessment Worksheet was submitted
23 to the Rice Creek Watershed District for review. Mr. Jelle indicated that it is submitted to the
24 Environmental Quality Board for review. He indicated that it is prepared with the help of several
25 agencies, most likely including the Rice Creek Watershed.
26
27 Chair Bergstrom questioned if the entire site project is defined in terms of the Environment
28 Assessment Worksheet or only a portion. Mr. Jelle replied that he wasn't directly involved with that
29 portion, but indicated that the entire site is most likely involved.
30
31 Commissioner Franzese asked what timeline was being planned at this time. Chair Bergstrom noted
32 that it was scheduled to begin construction in late spring 1996.
33
34 Commissioner Gondorchin indicated that Cub Foods would probably target opening by Memorial
35 Day. Mr. Scott noted that Cub Foods feels that date is not as significant, but wishes to gain
36 approvals quickly. He noted that once the permits are given, if they move aggressively they should
37 open in 5-6 months, nine months possibly.
38 Commissioner Makowske questioned if the signage plans were going to be by phase or an entire
39 package. Mr. Scott replied that they are evaluating the plan now. He said that it is probably
40 sufficient for Cub Foods since it is only one year old, but indicated it may need to be amended for •
41 the remaining phase.

1 Commissioner Horst questioned if the area for Super Valu would include the land in the front portion
2 that they intend to purchase or is Opus planning for the entire mall. Mr. Scott replied that they are
3 independent lots owned by Opus that may be sold to direct users possibly leased users. City
4 Manager Morrison indicated that there are five lot subdivisions planned for phase one.
5
6 Commissioner Franzese noted that the proposed Cub Foods requires more square footage than the
7 plan one year ago. She questioned if the market has increased since then, or what prompted the
8 increased store size. Mr. Scott indicated that he was not familiar with the original plan, and Cub
9 Foods uses four different floor plans throughout the country, and they have chosen this one for the
10 Apache area.
11
12 Commissioner Gondorchin indicated that he was ready and willing to assist in whatever plans are
13 needed to facilitate the Apache Plaza project.
14
15 Commissioner Horst questioned if a power center concept would include a Carson Pirie Scott or
16 Sears store. Mr. Scott replied that would be correct.
17
18 Chair Bergstrom opened the Concept Review to the public for questions at 7:50 p.m.
Charles Finn of 2709 Silver Lane indicated that he has been interested in the redevelopment plans
0 for a long time and was happy to see advancement, but wanted potential problems noted now. Mr.
21 Finn indicated that a subdivision application for January or February is too short of a time frame.
22 He also indicated that entrances, stoplights and traffic patterns to Apache Plaza need to be
23 considered. Mr. Finn reported that the environmental issues for the entire lot need to be considered
24 because more than 10% of the existing building is planned for demolition. He indicated that there
25 are currently no specifications for the water drainage for the entire site, and that they need to be
26. included in the Environmental Assessment Worksheet now so that the entire redevelopment project
27 is considered and done correctly the first time.
28
29 Chair Bergstrom agreed with Mr. Finn that this project needs to be done correctly, but wants to
30 understand his issues correctly as well.
31
32 Mr. Mornson responded to Mr. Finn that the plan includes a tax increment financing package and
33 that the new laws that begin April 1 will affect Super Valu's financing. He indicated that they have
34 been wishing to move to St. Anthony for a long time and that we need to accommodate them before
35 they seek another city. Mr. Mornson also noted that there are new stoplights on 39th and 37th
36 Streets, and that some measures have been taken to address the traffic issue. Mr. Mornson also
37 responded to the demolition of the area that a zero lot line is in effect, and that the City Attorney
38 approved the plan. He continued that the Planning Commission and the City Council are working
39 on the water drainage issue, and noted that they have met with the Rice Creek Watershed and that
the current plan is four times better than the one presented one year ago.

1 Mr. Finn agreed with Mr. Morrison that the plan meets the current Rice Creek Watershed standards,
2 but the problem lies in that only one lot is being considered at this point, and the entire plan needs
3 to be included so the Environmental Quality Board will review this correctly the first time.
4
5 Mr. Scott noted that Opus is not included in all plans at this point. He indicated that they do not
6 have firm commitments from potential tenants and that Opus will announce more plans once
7 commitments are received. He indicated that they are not trying to make changes or mislead the
8 Commission that a entire plan is the goal, but the focus needs to be on phase one. Mr. Scott
9 indicated that all drainage plans will be taken into consideration for a comprehensive plan for all
10 phases.
11
12 Commissioner Gondorchin noted that if the entire parcel is subject to the plan, then the water plan
13 should be flexible enough to accommodate other phases. Mr. Scott replied that planned phases are
14 done all over the country, and that water plans are made to be flexible in the beginning.
15
16 Chair Bergstrom asked if the Environmental Quality Board is requesting plans for phase one or for
17 the entire site. Mr. Scott indicated he did not have that answer now, but indicated that they would
18 approach the Board and ensure that they meet all current guidelines for the current plan and for any
19 future plans •
20
21 Mr. Finn reiterated his desire for a comprehensive drainage plan now so that potential litigation and
22 questions can be removed before plans move ahead. Chair Bergstrom noted that the Planning
23 Commission provides feedback to the applicant,and included that Opus has the advantage of seeing
24 what occurred the last time a redevelopment plan was attempted, and that they will take those issues
25 into consideration so that the redevelopment will occur smoothly.
26
27 Commissioner Faust noted that if the guidelines are not followed for drainage needs, then a permit
28 will not be issued until the guidelines are met. He acknowledged that Opus does not want to
29 elaborate on future plans until tenant prospects can be committed.
30
31 Commissioner Horst indicated the issue is not phase one but that Mr. Finn wants the entire mall plan
32 tied together. Mr. Finn reported that the plan does not meet all specifications now, and that if a
33 comprehensive plan can be presented then the issues can be addressed now.
34 Chair Bergstrom noted that while ponds have optimal sites for placement,they can go anywhere on
35 the site as long as the water can be pumped to where it needs to drain. Mr. Finn indicated that
36 pumping costs more money, but that issue is small if a concept can be agreed upon.
37
38 Mr. Jelle indicated that his firm has studied a comprehensive plan. He noted that First Bank controls
39 the entire site, and if a pond is placed incorrectly that it would be a large expense to First Bank. He
40 indicated that they want to do it correctly the first time as well, and that the drainage plan is being
41 planned flexible enough to accommodate future plans.

7 VII. STAFF UPDATE.
8 Ms. Moore-Sykes reported a follow-up that the applicant from the November 21, 1995 Planning
9 Commission meeting,Rehab Dynamics,has sent a letter to the City stating that the signage variance
10 denial was not correct according to the sign ordinance. The letter stated that the building access is
11 not an easement but a driveway that extends to 39th Avenue and that a variance is not required.
12 Ms. Moore-Sykes indicated that a copy of the letter and the sign ordinance has been submitted to the
13 City Attorney for review. Discussion was held on where the property is located.
14
15 Ms. Moore-Sykes also reported that a definition of a business establishment had been decided on:
16 each individual unit in Apache Plaza is a business establishment because it has business frontage,
17 but that it only applies to businesses that have frontage facing the right-of-way. Commissioner Faust
0 9 noted that the signage issue will need to be readdressed for a professional business building.
20 Commissioner Faust questioned if there were any applicants for the opening on the Planning
21 Commission. Ms. Moore-Sykes indicated that there are two applicants. Commissioner Faust
22 indicated that his first meeting was February 20, 1990,and that there has been a high turnover during
23 the last six,years. He expressed that the Commission needs continuity and background of the City's
24 history to be successful. Commissioner Faust also expressed that the City Council fully supports
25 the Planning Commission.
26
27 Chair Bergstrom wished Commissioner Faust well in his new appointment to City Council. He also
28 expressed his appreciation for his work over his term.
29
30 Commissioner Gondorchin wished Commissioner Faust well. He also noted that the Apache Plaza
31 concept review was very good.
32 Commissioner Franzese questioned when the new Planning Commissioner will be named. Ms.
33 Moore-Sykes responded that the applicants will be reviewed at the January 2, 1996 worksession,and
34 that the appointment will occur at the January 9, 1996 meeting.
35
36 Commissioner Franzese noted that a Conditional Use Permit was denied for a mini-storage building
37 at a past meeting. The building would have been placed where the drainage ponds were now being
proposed for the redevelopment of Apache Plaza.

TO: Planning Commission Members
FROM: Kim Moore-Sykes, Management Assistant
ITEM: Solid Rock Church -- Request for Conditional Use Permit
to lease space in a Commercial District
BACKGROUND:
Paster Bill.Matthews has submitted an application requesting a conditional use permit so
that he and the congregation of the Solid Rock Church may hold Saturday evening services
at the Apache Plaza Shopping Center. Currently, they hold services in their church in Elk
River, Minnesota. As is stated in the letter accompanying their application, there are
several members who reside in the Twin City area who would benefit from having a more
centrally located place of worship.
• The Solid Rock Church has negotiated a lease for space with Welsh Companies, Inc.,
pending the granting of a conditional use permit by the City. The space that the Solid
Rock Church is interested in leasing is located across the corridor and to the north of the
Apache Wells Sports Bar and Restaurant. This is a desirable location for the Church
because it is easily accessed from the parking lot. In discussing their application with Staff,
they were advised by Staff of the close proximity to Apache Wells; Paster Matthews was
not concerned about the closeness to the Apache Wells.
ANALYSIS
Staff submitted the Church's application to the City Attorney's office for review. The
attorney indicated that the Church's application does not fully meet all of the conditions as
required by the Minnesota Statutes and the City Ordinances. It is a use that is specifically
listed as a conditional use for the zoning district in which it is to be located. It can be
assumed the proposed conditional use will not be detrimental to health, safety or the
general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. The City Attorney referred
to the City Ordinance reference regarding compatible use in Section 1665.04, Subd. 3 (b),
and states that the Council may specify the conditions that it deems necessary.to make the
use compatible with other uses in the area. It is clearly not compatible to any of the retail
businesses that are currently doing business in Apache Plaza nor is it compatible to the
Apache Wells Sports Bar and Restaurant. His question is, are there any conditions that the
City could impose that would make the Church's use compatible to the other uses within
Apache Plaza? He is concerned that locating the Church in Apache would be injurious to
property values and that it is probably not a desirable location for the Church.
Staff has received a few calls from the business community stating their opposition to the •
Solid Rock Church locating in Apache Plaza. There have also been a few calls from
residents that support the granting of a conditional use permit to the Church.
RECOMMENDATION
Based on the City Attorney's findings and reservations, Staff recommends that the
Planning Commission deny the application for a conditional use permit.

To Whom It May Concern:
Attached is the application for Conditional Use Permit submitted by.Solid Rock Church. We
are applying for use of a portion of the Apache Plaza building to conduct church services as
an extension of our church in Elk River. -We have many attenders who come from the
metropolitan area of the twin cities and feel this is a more central area to not only meet their
needs but to reach out into new communities as well. This proposed use falls within the
guidelines for the commercial zoning district for this location.
The use of this building as a church is certainly not detrimental to the health, safety or
general welfare of persons residing or working in the vicinity. The use of this facility as a
church will benefit the community of St. Anthony in a positive way. Often times the
gathering of large groups for services will benefit the community financially (eating
establishments, etc.) as well. Our services on Saturday night will draw from a wide array of
cultural backgrounds and age groups. Our intent is to be a most positive influence on the
community as a whole and this location is desirable because of its easy accessibility and
convenience.
We appreciate your consideration for this Conditional Use Permit. Thank you.
Sincerely,

Re: Solid Rock Church - Apache Plaza
Dear Mike:
• You have asked me to advise tfte City regarding the application by the Solid
Dock Church for a conditional.use permit to conduct church services within Apache
Plaza. As you know, Apache Plaza.is zoned for commercial use. Under Section
1635.03 (e), churches can be permitted in the C-District by conditional use permit
issued by the Council.
As I understand.'it, the.Church.would lease.the space in Apache Plaza for one
year in a location nekt.to the Apache-W61ls on-sale liquor establishment. A
question has arisen as to whether:'a'c'hditlonal use-permit may be granted under
the circumstances.
The issuance of conditional use perrimlits is goweriied by Section 1665:04 of the
Code. Subd. 3 of that section provides that a cori�lltional use permit rhdy lip granted
only by a four-fifths vote of all meriit3ers of the COUR' l #ftef c'6id6riiriirig tligfi
(a) The use is one of the Conditional_uses specifically listed far the district
in which the property it .1octeci:
(b) The Council has specified all coiidxtiEizis "which iHe CCouncil cle�ffi"
necessary to make the use con{patitile with otRez iis�es � the d1i.
(c) The use will not be detrimental to the health, safety,.or general welfare
• of persons residing or working in the vicinity or to the vgiues of
property in the vicinity. ..

(d) The use will.provide a-seY'vice Ora faeilxty which is in the interest of
public convenience and.will contribute to the general welfare.
As indicated above, the requirement ml - paragraph (a) is met. Presumably, the
Council could also make the necessary findings.under paragraph (c) and (d). The
primary issue, however, is whether conditions can be established which would
make the use "compatible with other uses in the area" under paragraph (b).
The question of whether a-church use would be compatible with the other
retail uses in Apache Plaza, and the,question of whether a church use would be
compatible with the.ope'ration..of a r%Tsale.liquor establishment, are questions
which I believe are within the.discretion and determination of the City Council.
The conditional use permit could be denied if the Council concluded that •
there were no conditions which would make the Church use coipatible with the
liquor operation and other uses. On the other hand, if the Council could establish
conditions which the Council concluded would make the church use compatible
with these other uses, a conditional:use permit could be granted.

Dear Mr. Morrison:
We would be pleased if you would consider the Focus News as the City of St. Anthony's official news-
paper for the year 1996 at your City Council Meeting.
We endeavor to print each legal accurately and to follow any written specifications you might include
with your legal. We are also very proud of our dedication to community journalism. Our staff members
demonstrate this through their commitment to local organizations that are striving to make the St.
Anthony area a better place to live and work.
Because we realize the cities are trying to hold expenses to a minimum, we have not implemented an
