Councilmember Makowske noted that the billing for membership in the League of
• Minnesota Human Rights Commission had indicated the City's dues had been raised 42.9%
and asked whether the City received that much more benefit from its membership.
Councilmember Marks indicated he perceived the City is eligible to receive as much
service from the organization as is requested. The Mayor recalled that the City's
Human Rights Commission had disbanded because no need for their services had been
demonstrated in the past, but indicated he understood membership in this Commission
would allow the City to utilize the Commission's expertise in this area if the need
should ever arise.
Motion by Councilmember Marks and seconded by Councilmember Makowske to approve pay-
ment of $50 in annual dues for membership in the League of Minnesota Human Rights
Commissions.
Motion carried unanimously.
Motion by Councilmember Makowske and seconded by Councilmember Marks to approve payment
of $9,000 to School District #282 for the City's use of the Parkview facilities during

ment of $228 to the League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust for automobile in-
surance coverage from January 1 , 1986.
Motion carried unanimously.
• Motion by Councilmember Makowske and seconded by Councilmember Marks to approve payment
of $81 ,723 to the LMC Insurance Trust for package, automobile, and umbrella insurance
coverage from June 1 , 1986.
Motion carried unanimously.
Councilmember Enrooth arrived at 7:35 P.M.
Motion by Councilmember Makowske and seconded by Councilmember Marks to waive the
third reading and adopt the ordinance which would amend the City zoning map and code
to change the zoning classification for the property owned by Derck Amerman north of
the vacant Clark Station property on the corner of Stinson Boulevard and 33rd Avenue
N.E. from C, commercial district, to R-3, townhouse residential district, to match the
zoning classification proposed to be constructed on the vacant lot.
ORDINANCE 1986-005
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE CITY ZONING MAP
Motion carried unanimously.
Council action on the Planning Commission's April 15th recommendation that certain
variances be granted in conjunction with the commercial facility the META Partnership
proposed to construct on the former American Legion property at 2701 and 2709 Kenzie
Terrace had been deferred until the developers could meet with the residents on
• 27th Avenue N.E. to attempt to dispel some of the concerns they had about the project.
Those efforts had been unsuccessful to a great extent because two petitions with
approximately 30 signatures each, opposing the variances for a height of 42 feet
X 6 inches or an alley access for the proposed structure had been delivered to
the City and copies included in the agenda packet.
-3-
Greg Gustafson, Vice President of META Partnership, 7400 Metro Boulevard, Bloomington,
MN and James F. Guttormson of Environmental Expressions, 5416-45th Avenue South,
Minneapolis, project architect, gave the revised plans for the proposed structure
which would bring it into conformance with the height requirements of the City
ordinance and eliminated any alley access at all . Mr. Gustafson told the Council
members and the 13 residents who were present the architect had reworked the project
plans so as to modify the pitch of the roof down to a height of 35 feet which would
bring it into conformance with ordinance requirements and to relocate the 48 parking
spaces the City had allowed in December in such a manner as to avoid penetration into
the alley. The META partner indicated the latter had been done to accomodate the
concerns of the neighbors although he said he personally perceived the use of the
alley had to have been legally "grandfathered in" by its use by abutting property
owners over the last 25 years.
Mr. Guttormson pointed out on the revised plans how the headers and windows had -been
lowered to obtain a "modified pitch" on the roof which he indicated he personally
perceived made the proposed structure less interesting". The architect added that
the developers considered the pitch effect to be a "belfrey" which the ordinance con-
sidered to be a part of the roof as long as it was not used as an -attic for storage.
He said the pitch had been retained as much as possible to match the Kenzington next
door. When Mr. Guttormson indicated the plan was only a preliminary sketch and
inquired whether, if it should prove to be unworkable and it might be necessary to
go to a height of 37 feet, the developers might be granted any leeway from the
ordinance height limitation, the Mayor told .h.im another public hearing would have to
• be called on the variance which would be necessary for that change.
The architect then indicated on the plans how the proposed structure had been moved
away from the alley and told Paul Wehr, 2616-27th Avenue N.E. , the lines on the sketch
indicated plantings and curbing at the alley. line which would prevent drivers from
using the alley to get to the proposed building. When Mr. Wehr expressed concern
that the rear of the building might all be asphalt, Mr. Gustafson told him that "as
one of the major property owners in the area, META would be just as interested as the
other residents in having this site attractively developed" . He also said the type
of tenants the developers are seeking for the proposed office space in the structure
should dictate an aesthetically pleasing building and site would be developed.
When Joe Schluender, 2708-27th Avenue N.E. suggested concrete rather than bituminous
curbing would last longer, Mr. Guttormson agreed with him but said that plans were
not finalized.
The Mayor told Mr. Schluender he perceived the developers "were on the right track
now, having made considerable changes in their proposal to accomodate the neighbors'
concerns, and it should not be left to the City Manager and META to work out the finer
details of how the project would finally be developed" . He said he "agreed with the
elimination of the alley access" because he "recognized that, with the inevitable
change of ownerships in that neighborhood to younger families, it would be very
difficult to keep children from playing in that alley".
Mr, Gustafson told Clarence Kemma, 2504-27th Avenue N.E ., the building exterior would
• probably be mostly stucco with as much brick added to match the Kenzington as the
type of tenants made economically feasible. When Mr. Kemma mentioned all the changes
which the City had allowed to the original. Kenzington proposal , Mr. Gustafson reminded
-4-
him that the META Partnership had not been associated with the project when that had
occurred. The developer reacted to Mr. Kemma's suggestion that.a deadline be imposed
on the variances the Manager had indicated remained to be granted for the project, by
saying no such restrictions had ever been considered necessary for any other project
with which his firm had been involved, Mr. Gustafson also mentioned that it was con-
ceivable the developers might end up with a smaller building because they had "a
pretty tight site with little flexibility to work with", and he told Mr. Kemma he
hoped with the discussions META is holding now with a group of prospective tenants,
that construction could be started this fall . He reiterated that, as owners of the
Kenzington next door, it would be. to the developers' advantage to get the site cleaned
up as soon as possible to aid condominium sales,
The developer then assured Councilmember Marks that more definitive plans with colors
to designate landscaping would be made available in the Kenzington for any residents
who had been unable to attend the meeting that evening and to let prospective con-
dominium buyers know what is planned next door.
Councilmember Makowske indicated she perceived the developers had responded to the
neighbors' concerns by providing greater setbacks from the alley and she complimented
the residents for getting the changes they had sought.
Motion by Mayor Sundland and seconded by Councilmember Makowske to grant the META
Partnership, 7400 Metro Boulevard, Bloomington, MN, a setback variance for parking
which would waiver the five foot side yard setback ordinance requirement on the south-
west side and the ten foot front yard setback requirement on the southeast side of the
property at 2701 and 2709 Kenzie Terrace, for a total of 42 parking stalls to accomo-
date a building which would not exceed 35 feet in height, and for which there would
• be no alley access, which META proposes to erect in conjunction with a commercial
facility in accordance with the revised project plans presented by the architect
at the June 24, 1986 Council meeting.
In granting these variances the Council further stipulates that:
1 . The developers would have to make a binding commitment to provide at least six
tenant parking stalls in the underground parking in the Kenzington building which
would make up the same number of stalls which were lost when this project had
to be redesigned for dimensions less than originally proposed; and
2. Due to unique layout and traffic flow,;ion the site in relation to the facility
which would be constructed, the property owner would also be required to provide
clear, concise traffic flow markings to identify entrances, exits, and one ways
so as to control the traffic flow in such a manner as to minimize a potential
conflict between vehicles and pedestrian traffic in that area.
In granting these variances the Council finds, as did the Planning Commission, that:
1 . The proposed project would provide an obvious improvement and possibly better
maintenance for that site;
2. The setback encroachments can be perceived to have been caused by the triangular
shaped dimensions of the site and the owner should therefore be given full con-
sideration to properly develop this project within the confines of those
difficult dimensions;
• 3, It should be recognized that there is an alleged difficulty or hardship not created
by persons presently having an interest in the parcel of land but rather, by the
City ordinance, because the developers are attempting to improve their property
and to refuse their request to do so would impose an undue hardship on them;
-5-
4. By approving this request, the City would be eliminating one curb cut to Kenzie
Terrace; and
5. The revised plans appeared to satisfactorily address previous neighbor concerns
about the project.
Motion carried unanimously.
Planni.ng Commissioner John.Madden was present for the META project discussion after
which he reported. Commission recommendations -.as reflected in the minutes of the
Commission meeting held.June 17, 1986.
The Commission representative noted that the Commissioners had tabled the variance
request for the Murphy Service Station on County Road C pending staff opinion .as
_
to- the next action_required of the Commission.
In his report on the variance request for the replacement of anon--conforming reader
board sign -on the Nationwide Sewing Machine store in -St. Anthony:Shopping Center,.
Commissioner Madden indicated the Commission's recommendation of approval of the sign
had included the stipulation .that the sign should be turned off whenever the store
was closed, even though the applicant had pointed out that the same restriction had
not been applied for signage for other corner stores in the same center. The Com-
- missioner said the attempt to strike that restriction from the motion. had failed by a
-two to two vote and that later in the evening the attempt to put the same .restriction
on store signage in another location had failed by the same tie vote:
Tom Peters, who had applied for the sign variance which would enable him to advertise
• another service in -his store, was present and told the Council and Mayor it would be
no problem for him to turn off his sign when the store is closed and that, in fact,
he.-perceived it might save him money for electricity in the long run.
Mr. Childs reported that.there are some stores in the same center which leave their
signs lit all evening, including, of course, the grocery store which stays open 24
hours a day. The Manager told Councilmember Enrooth the City has no consistent
policy in this regard but had in the past imposed similar restrictions on variances
for signs which the Commission had considered might adversely impact adjacent resi-
dential neighborhoods, which would probably not be valid for this.:particular location.
Councilmember Makowske indicated she perceived that as long as the applicant wasn't
objecting. to the restriction, the Council should leave it in its motion of approval
but suggested it might be advisable for the Council to develop a policy in this
regard so it wouldn't have to be dealt. with each time a sign request is submitted.
Councilmember Enrooth agreed there was a need for consistency in dealing with signage,
perceiving there should be a differentiation made between signs in a strictly commercial
area and in-an area which impacted on a residential neighborhood. The Councilmember
said he anticipated the question would have to be addressed a number of times with
the development of Phases II and III i.n the Kenzie Terrace Redevelopment Project.
Mayor Sundland agreed that a different treatment of sign lighting for commercial areas
which don't impact on residential might be. in order. Councilmember Marks indicated he
wouldn't want to preclude that the restriction applied in this case might not become
the accepted policy for the City.
• Motion by Councilmember Marks and seconded by Councilmember Enrooth to grant a variance
to the Sign Ordinance requirement for only one sign to a business to Nationwide Sew-
ing Machine, Inc. , 2922 Pentagon Drive., for a. 3. foot, 3 inch X ,14 foot sign (approxi-
mately 45 square, feetl -to replace`_,an existing non-conforming reader board sign on the -
-6-
southwest side of the store Capproximately 10.0. square feet). which would identify a new
business to be located on those premises and operated in conjunction with the exist-
ing sewing machine business in the store, with the stipulation that the new sign would
not be lit after business hours.
In granting the variance, the Council , as did the Planning Commission, finds that:
1 . The new sign would substantially reduce the square footage of the existing, non-
conforming signage and the quality of signage would be much improved;
2. Several stores with corner locations in that immediate shopping area had pre-
viously been granted variances for similar signage;
3. The proposed signage could be considered to be an asset to the community which
would provide a necessary service because it would identify a second business in
the store which the community might not know about without the sign; and
4, The three questions in the application required by statute to be answered in the
affirmative, have been done so by this applicant and accepted by the Commission
and Council .
Motion carried unanimously.
In relation to the requested conditional use permit for a pizza bakery and delivery
service to be operated in the vacant store at 3005-37th Avenue N.E. , Commissioner
Madden reiterated that his own opinion, as a resident in the same area, was that
this type of business might have .a better chance of succeeding than the previous
• enterprises in that location, which couldn't help but be better for the neighborhood
as a whole than an empty storefront.
The Commissioner reported that attempt to impose the same restriction on the number of
hours which the sign could be lit had failed by a two to two vote, even .though this
sign could be perceived to have a greater impact on surrounding residential than the
Nationwide sign. However, Commissioner Madden added the applicant had indicated a
willingness to work with staff to meet City requirements in that regard. Mayor
Sundland agreed the two cases before the Council that evening certainly pointed up
the inconsistencies related to lighting signs.
Dick Peterson of RPA, Inc. discussed the type of operation he was proposing and
assured the Mayor that, since less than 10% of his business at this location could be
--expected to be take-out, parking spaces would only be necessary to accommodate, at the
most, five employees cooking and handling orders on the very busiest of nights, and
the delivery trucks who would necessarily make "very short stops" to pick up their
orders. He also reiterated that his landlord, the owner of the Autotraac building
next door had indicated there would be no problem if overflow from the pizza opera-
tion had to use his parking spaces since that station would be closed during the pizza
operation's busiest hours. His landlord, Gene Crowley, was present but his testimony
during the Commission hearing was considered sufficient.
When Councilmember Marks questioned whether there might be cooking smells from the
kitchen which. dould prove to be annoying to the residents across the street, Mr. Peterson
introduced John Sanquist, one of his managers and "the person responsible for opening
new stores", who told the Councilmember they had no complaints about odors from
• neighbors to their operations in either Highland Village or Falcon Heights, both of
which were very close to densely inhabited residential areas.
-7-
The Mayor asked the store owner for his personal observations about having store signs
lit after hours. Mr. Peterson said he -hadn't quite resolved the question in his own
• mind because on one hand, -with the lack of money available for other types of adver-
tising, .any visual message to let potential customers know the store was there would
be welcome but, on the- other hand, -it might be true as the Commission Chair had
--poi nted out, "nothi ng coul d be more frustrati ng than pul l i ng up -to, a-:stor•_e)you- aossume i s
open by virtue of.the fact that the sign is lit, only to find a locked door He said
because of his store' s own late hours,. the _question'was probably moot in his case,
anyhow.
Motion by Councilmember Enrooth and seconded by Councilmember Marks to grant. a condi-
tional use permit to RPA, Inc. , 1075 West County Road E, Shoreview, MN, to allow the
operat-ion .of the Paul. Revere Pizza bakery and delivery service, 3005-37th Avenue N.E. ,
as proposed by the franchise owner,. Richard Peterson, finding, as- did the Planning
Commission, that:.
1 . Staff had received no calls for or against the proposal prior to either the
June 17th Commission or Council June .24th meetings and no objections to the permit
had been raised duri.ng: either meeting-
.2. The proposed use would fill an empty store front which is perceived to be a
detriment to the City;
3. The owner had indicated there would be no seating for customers provided. in the
store which-could r.esul t.. i n pa4rki ng,,congest-ion around;:the site; and .
- 4. The three conditions required by statute .to'.be satisfied before a conditional use
permit �can. be authorized have been perceived to have been done so with thi.s
proposal .
Motion carried unanimously.
Dennis Olson, 31:17 Rankin Road, Chairman of the.Elmwood Lutheran Church .Building
Committee, was present f'or. the -Council 's consideration of the church's request for.
the conditional use permit required of All .churches .in a residential area for the
proposed sanctuary addition to,the north side of the existing church building -at
3615 Chelmsford Road N.E. ' The Building Chairman had again provided a model of the
church with -the requested addition for which the Commission had unanimously recom-
mended the Council grant a permit and answered questions related to the project prior
to action by the Council .
Motion by Councilmember Marks and seconded by .Councilmember Makowske to grant a
conditional use permit to the Elmwood Lutheran. Church for -the construction of a
sanctuary on the north side of their existing church building at 3615 Chelmsford
Road N.E. , finding, as did the Planning Commission, that:
1 . All the ordinance requirements had- been complied with and no variance would be
necessary for the project;
2. There were no expressions of opposition to the proposal either before or during
either the Commission's public hearing on the request June 17th, or the Council
consideration June 24, 1986; and
3. Essentially, this addition can be perceived to be an improvement of the existing
property.
-8-
In granting this permit, the Council rescinds, as recommended by the Planning Com-
mission, all previous permits and variances issued in relation to the improvement of
this property and reported in the minutes of City meetings from June 1983 to June 1984.
Motion carried unanimously.
A copy of the proposed Zero Lot Line Ordinance which the Commission had recommended
the Council adopt had been included in the Council 's agenda packet and contained the
change in wording for Cd). under Section 5 which the Commission had made.
A notice that the Council would be considering this ordinance addition had been
published in the June 4th Bulletin but no members of the public were in attendance to
provide input to the consi erT atio
Motion by Councilmember Marks and seconded by Councilmember Enrooth to approve the
first reading of Ordinance 1986-0.06.
ORDINANCE 1986-0.06
AN ORDINANCE AMENDING THE ZONING ORDINANCE OF THE
CITY OF ST. ANTHONY BY PROVIDING
A TWINHAME CLASSIFICATION
Motion carried unanimously.
Councilmember Makowske indicated that, as she had reported in the organization's
newsletter, an update on the Ramsey County Commissioners and their current projects
• had been given during the Ramsey County League of Local Governments meeting held
June 18th. The Councilmember indicated the July picnic had been postponed until
August so the RCLLG meeting in July could be devoted to a debate on the "Metro East
Strategic Options" put out by the Humphrey Institute Planning Team.
Councilmember Enrooth indicated he perceived Duluth had done a good .job of providing
for the League of Minnesota Cities Conference he had attended, which the Councilmember
indicated had provided several seminars he had found very informative, Mayor Sundland
said he echoed the Councilmember's assessment of the conference and the "good job
Duluth had done putting it together".
Councilmember Marks indicated he had participated in several more meetings of the
St. Anthony Chemical Abuse Information Committee in preparation of the grant appli-
cation which i_s to be submitted and expected to attend more meetings for the same
purpose later that week. The Councilmember commented that he considered the EPA
hearings held in St. Anthony the previous evening in relation to the City's water
contamination problems to have been "a very positive one" . Councilmember Enrooth
agreed, saying this was one of the few meetings sponsored by a government agency where
he perceived "the City actually got back something for the taxes we pay". Mayor
Sundland reported some of the EPA people had told him they had been very impressed
with the City residents who were present who they perceived "were very knowledgeable
about the situation as it stood, asked good questions, and listened carefully to
agency presentations", wh.ich the Mayor said he understood was not always the case
with these hearings.
During the consideration of the May Fire Department Report, Councilmember Enrooth-
noted that the City Fire Department duties had been expanded to include "animal rescue",
referring to the report of firefighters having to pry a duck out of a chimney.
The report and the April Financial report were ordered filed,
-9-
During the discussion of the June 17th staff meeting notes, Mr. Childs indicated he
• had experienced two "minor triumphs" that day. He said this year's audit did not
contain an exception for fixed assets, which was something he had been trying to
achieve for some time, and another project he had been urging for the past five years,
was accomplished that day when Hennepin County striped Silver Lake Road to indicate
only one car traffic is permitted each direction on the road and to discourage passing
on the right side. The Manager indicated he had observed that the striping had al-
ready improved the flow of traffic and said drivers who want to observe the speed
limit might now find that road less frustrating to drive. Councilmember Marks agreed,
saying it had been 'Very satisfying to watch people's driving habits improve right
behind the striping truck".
The Manager then showed a picture of the pump in Well #4 which he indicated was
thought to have been struck by lightning the previous afternoon, and said staff had
estimated the cost of repairing the damage would be about $3,000, if both wiring and
new bearings were necessary. It is hoped the well would be back on line either
Friday or Monday and residents had been alerted that a no sprinkling ban had been
imposed by notices in both the St. Paul papers and a radio announcement that morning,
Mr. Childs indicated.
Mayor Sundland said he had gotten a call from a resident who is getting Roseville
water asking whether the ban applied to those residents as well . The Manager indicated
he perceived the City is losing money on the Roseville connection anyway and the less
use the better. He said staff is advising all callers to be very conservative with
the use of their water no matter where they live and to substitute buckets for their
hoses if they nedd^to waterrplants during the emergency period.
• Before the staff notes were ordered filed, the Mayor indicated he was expressing the
appreciation of the entire Council for the fact that under Mr. Childs' administration
staff meetings which the Council had urged unsuccessfully over the years before he
came were now being held on a regular basis. The Manager responded by saying staff
takes great comfort in knowing these reports are always read by the Councilmembers
and often uses this means of getting messages to them in advance of meetings.
Mr. Childs had included in the agenda packet copies of the Police Chief's June 17th
memorandum recommending a special work session with the Council to evaluate the
budgetary effect the two impending retirements of longtime officers might have and the
Manager said he had several items he perceived might also be taken care of at the
same meeting. He said staff hadn't completed its review of the bids submitted for the
cooler in the new Apache liquor operation and the contracts for the St. Anthony
Boulevard Improvement Project could be awarded at the same time.
Mr. Childs indicated he needed some Council feedback related to an unresolved issue
in the lease being negotiated with the C. G. Rein Company for space next to the Apache
Country Store. He said the City Attorney and Liquor Manager had proposed a lease
addendum which they perceived would be necessary to protect the City's liquor sales
if the legislature should eventually permit the sale of beer and wine in grocery stores
and would preclude the City's right to issue the permits for those sales . Staff
was directed to continue negotiations on that point, which the Mayor and Councilmembers
concurred, could adversely effect the City's ability to operate a successful liquor
operation in that area. The Mayor reiterated the point he had been making over the
years this legislature had threatened, that not only could the sales in grocery stores
• hurt the City's liquor operations but could cost the City much more in trying to con-
trol and deal with the perceived results of such sales.
Motion by Councilmember Marks and seconded by Councilmember Enrooth to schedule a
Special Council meeting for 7:30 P.M., June 30, 1986, for consideration of the bids
-10-
for the St. Anthony Boulevard Reconstruction .project. and for the walk-in cooler for the
new Apache liquor operation, the lease with the C. G. Rein Company for, 9,100 + square
feet in the former LaBelle store, and .for a discussion of departmental staffing levels
for the Police Department.
Motion carried unanimously.
Councilmembers were invited to attend the following day Ramsey County's demonstration
of a new process for hammermilling and recycling pavement for highway reconstruction
projects. , One of the City Volunteer, Firefighters, who works for the County, would
be videotaping the process for future reference,
The Council then accepted as' an agenda addendum. a discussion of future action related
to the City's water contamination problems following the EPA hearing the previous
evening. The Manager _indicated the City's legal counsel in that .respect, Briggs and
Morgan, had concluded at their last meeting that an independent review, of the Camp,
Dresser., McKee report on the City's water supply alternatives would be advisable not
only to- substantiate the CDM report conclusions but to assure that "the City's data
related to its litigation position is .accura.te and credible. Mr. Childs reiterated
that the firm which is chosen to do the review could be, but would not necessarily be
chosen to serve as the City's expert witness if the litigation with the Army evolves
to that point.
Mr. Chil"ds presented a proposal from Rieke, Carroll and Muller to complete review of
the Camp, Dresser., McKee study before July 8th for $5,000 and .indicated staff would
work closely with the consultants to keep.the costs below that figure.-,. He drew the
Council 's attention to the qualifications of the, person :who would be involved in the
• study who he perceived would be able to be completely objective in their recommendations.
Motion by Councilmember :Enrooth and 's.econded." by Councilmember Marks to authorize
Rieke, Carroll , and Muller Engineers to make. a study, of the Camp, Dresser, -McKee
report at a cost not to exceed .$5,000.
Motion carried unanimously.
Motion by Councilmember Marks and seconded by May_or.. Sundland to adopt the resolution
which would delete the residency clause in the firefighters union contract.

The request for a temporary beer permit for the Johnson family picnic which would
involve playing softball in the adjoi.ning Silver Point Park was approved after the
Manager had assured Councilmember Makowske that the applicant would be cautioned
against any of the guests carrying hard liquor or wine into the park.
Motion by Councilmember Enrooth and seconded by Mayor Sundland to grant a temporary
3.2 beer permit to Susan Johnson, 3100-29th Avenue. N.E. , for a family picnic for the
• possible consumption but not sale of 3.2 beer by her guests which would be associated
with their playing softball in Silver Point Park, Sunday, June 29., 1986.
