RE: FINAL BILLING - EDWARD STREET AND 33RD AVENUE CONCRETE REPAIRS
Dear Mr. Hamer:
Please find enclosed the final billing for the staking portion of the
project. We have previously billed you for the design phase.
In summary, both phases of the work came in under our not-to-exceed costs
presented in our proposal letter to you dated 6/29/90.
The final costs were as follows: •
DESIGN STAKING
Not-to-Exceed $600.00 $900.00
Actual Billing 276.86 548.52
Savings $323.14 $351.48
The savings reflect our ability to manage our work cost effectively and our
competitive overhead factor of 1.45.
When we provide a client a proposal for work, it reflects what we believe it
will take us to complete the tasks as we understand the scope of services,
and as can be seen here, we strive to complete the work within our proposal
estimate with the best possible service.
Thanks so much for allowing MSA, Inc. to serve the City of St. Anthony and
we look forward to working with you in the future.
Yours truly,

31 FORREST AND MARTY HARSTAD FOR REZONING REQUEST
32
33 The hearing was opened at 7:35 with no one present reporting failure to
34 receive the notice of hearing or objecting to its content.
35
36 Assistant to the City Manager VanderHey den reported the area is zoned for
37 light industrial. The lot has R-3 zoned property and Light Industrial. The
38 only phone call staff received was from a woman hoping to have some type
39 of townhome put in that area. Proposal is to put two buildings with eight
40 townhomes each. If rezoning is approved,. Harstad will have to come back
41 with the full detail plan. Right now just to consider rezoning. Staff feels it is
42 a reasonable request.
43
44 Commissioner Murphy asked if any type of a needs analysis had been done
45 and how this type of decision would effect the tag base.
PLANNING COMMISSION 2
MINUTES. October 16, 1990
1
2 VanderHeyden reported that a developer would do this type of analysis
3 usually before building. There is nothing standing vacant.
4
5 Brownell asked if the townhomes are for owner occupancy, therefore being
6 homesteaded, or if they are going to be rental.
7
8 The developer reported that they will be owner occupied.
9
10 The application requires that a map be submitted showing the land proposed
11 to be rezoned and all lands within 350 feet of its boundaries.
12
13 VanderHeyden said that there are two sides light industrial and two sides
14 residential.
15
16 Chairman Madden questioned whether traffic on Foss Road has been studied
17 and indicated the traffic is already heavy on the 30 foot wide residential
18 street.
19
20 Madden pointed out that the building on the west side of the site is using the
21 south side of their property as a junk yard; and he recommended the City
22 look into the matter.
23
24 He suggested that there could be access from Chandler Drive as well as Foss
25 Road to help the traffic problem because Chandler is much wider. Madden
26 questioned whether rezoning guaranteed that townhomes would be on the
27 property.
28
29 It was not determined which zoning provides the City with the greater
30 amount of revenue.when developed.
31
32 VanderHeyden said that Harstad was in the process of buying the property.
33
34 Murphy discussed the question of the site development, considering the lot
35 area per unit..
36
37 Hansen said that the number and size of units should wait for future
38 discussion after the rezoning.
39
40 Faust questioned whether the two residential homes that are in light
41 industrial are owner occupied and if there is a plan to move them or rezone.
42 They could conceivably be resold and resold.
43
44 Public hearing opened at 7:51.
45
PLANNING COMMISSION 3
MINUTES, October 16, 1990
1 Forrest Harstad presented blueprints, photos and diagrams of his proposal
2 for thepatio townhomes. Their engineer found no conflicts with variances.
3 He said the market value would vary between $59,900 and $79,900.
4
5 Harstad confirmed that the plan is the same as one in Coon Rapids.
6
7 Bruce O'Brien, president.of Townhomes of St. Anthony, said that he was
8 concerned that the area not be for industrial use. He said the townhome
9 proposal is mostly favorable. Questions to the developer are with regard to
10 fire lanes, single car garages, parking and the amount of land available.
11
12 Madden clarified that the hearing was to approve rezoning only. O'Brien
13 would like to see the property rezoned regardless of the developer.
14
15 Aleda Muller, secretary/treasurer of the group asked if there was any
16 consideration of a west exit.
17
18 Harstad pointed out that there may be a grading problem making it
19 physically impossible for change in the roads.
20
21 Muller also asked if there were individual driveways.
22
23 Harstad said there were three driveways.
24
25 Hearing closed at 8:15 p.m.
26
27 Werenicz said that he favors the rezoning.
28
29 Madden expressed concern about the traffic flow. He commented that each
30 residence is responsible for five or six trips on the street per day. Supports
31 rezoning with a strong recommendation for consideration of access from the
32 west on Chandler Drive which is more capable of handling the traffic.
33
34 Hansen favors the rezoning and said the traffic could be an issue with light
35 industrial.
36
37 Murphy inquired about the history of the property. City staff was unsure.
38
39 Brownell moved to recommend approval of the request for rezoning the
40 property at 3816 Foss Road from industrial to R3; and recommend that the
41 approval not be granted and made final until such time as a final plat plan is
42 approved by the City Council for the rezoning. We find that this would be
43 the best and highest use for the property at this time.
44
PLANNING COMMISSION 4
MINUTES, October 16, 1990
1 Madden seconded and offered an amendment that the developer and the
2 City be encouraged to cooperatively investigate an access from Chandler to

=TEM : STREET LIGHT PETITION
I received a petition from residents of the 3500block on Skycroft Drive for mid-block street lights.
Of the 30 properties, only one resident was not in favor of the petition.
This request is for three street lights with fiberglass poles and underground wiring. The type of
pole and underground wiring is above the City's standard and as a result, much more expensive.
This area does not have power lines in the front, so it makes it difficult to run power to the pole
unless it is underground. To offset this additional cost, the neighbors have indicated they would pay
the installation charges and agree to pay the annual difference in maintenance and power costs.
I recommend that the Council officially receive the petition and direct staff to meet with Northern
States Power and research the cost and feasibility. I will then ask the City Attorney to determine
the best way to assess the installation and annual utility charges back to the resident.
