REPORTS 21 22 A. Planning Commission - April 21 , 1992 23 24 Commissioner Madden was in attendance at the Council .25 Meeting representing the Planning Commission . 26 27 Madden stated he feels that the Planning Commission has 28 been excluded from the Council proceedings and 29 deliberations regarding the conditional use permit which 30 has been requested for the Sheik ' s Garden Restaurant at 31 Apache Plaza Shopping Center . 32 33 He recalled that the Planning Commission had recommended 34 approval of the request on two occasions . He reviewed the' 35 history of the rejections for approval by the City 36 Council and observed that the matter is again on the 37 Council agenda for tonight ' s meeting. 38 39 The City Manager advised that a recommendation from the 40 Planning Commission can always be brought back for 41 discussion and reconsideration. 42 43 Stop-N-Shop Superette, 3813 Stinson Boulevard, Sign 44 Variance Request 45 46 This business had received prior signage approval when it 47 was the intention ' to provide gasoline from Phillips 66 . 48 Now the firm is planning on providing Conoco gasoline and 49 this company has different signage requirements than 50 Phillips . 51 52 Conoco has requested that their brand signs be placed on 53 the north and south ends of the canopy sign on the side 54 closest to the road and that the identification signs of 1 REGULAR COUNCIL MEE=II:G MAY 12 , 1992 PAGE 5 4 5 Stop-N-Shop be removed from the canopy sign . There is no 6 provision in the Sign Ordinance for the type of canopy 7 sign that is being requested . The Sign Ordinance defines 6 a canopy sign as permanent roof structure attached .to and 9 supported by the building. 10 11 Also, Madden advised that the request did not meet the 12 three requirements for signage and the Planning 13 Commission had to deny the request . 14 15 At the Planning Commission meeting there was a 16 contradiction noticed in the letter received from Conoco 17 regarding their requirements . 18 19 20 In one part of the letter it -was stated that Conoco brand 21 requirements mandate the installation of the Conoco 22 caps::! ' sign on a canopy fascia . The policy does not 23 permit co-mingling of their trademark sign and any 24 proprietary sign on a shared basis . 25 26 In another part of the Conoco .letter it was stated that '-7 accommodations would be made for local signage codes whereby pole-mounted capsule signs would be allowed over 29 canopy or building capsule signs . 30 31 Madder, stated that the Planning Commission had felt the 32 problems being encountered -were created by the oil 33 company and not the Sign Ordinance . He noted that all 34 members of the Planning Commission hoped something could: 35 be worked outwith the Superette as it would be a good 36 addition to the community. 37 l38 Motion by Marks , second by Wagner to deny the' request on 39 the same basis as the Planning Commission, the three 40 conditions on the application as required by law had not 41 been met and that the matter be returned to the Planning 42 Commission for clarification of 'the matter referred to in 43 the last paragraph of the Conoco letter which addresses 44 signage on the pylon sign and signage on the canopy . 45 46 Motion carried unanimously 47 4.8 49 The City Manager advised if the -brand of gasoline were 50 referred to on the canopy sign it would make the sign 51 nor.-conforming . He noted that presently there is a 52 subcommittee made up of members of the Planning Commission reviewing the Sign Ordinance . 4 I REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING 2 N.AY 12 , 1992 3 PAGE 6 4 5 6 It had been suggested to the owners of the Superette they 7 might consider purchasing gasoline on a wholesale basis 8 and market it under their label . The owners noted they 9 were very dependent on credit card customers and could_ ' 10 -- - - -not--do- th-i s---- — -- - -- - - 11 12 Marks inquired if the -application _ has been completed by 13 the owners of the company. He was advised that this has 14 not yet been done .but_ the f.ee_will. be coll.ect.ed when- -it- - 15 - -- is . - - - - - 16 17 The Mayor noted that the Council desires that this 18 situation becomes workable but laws cannot be violated to 19 accomplish that end . Marks also noted the suggestions 20 made should not be interpreted as encouragement to 21 request additional signage . 22 23 B. Council Reports 24 25 1 . Proclamation : Re : Flaa Day/Pause for Pledae of 26 Allegiance 27 28 Motion by Marks , second . by Ranallo to approve the 29 proclamation which recognizes the significance of June 30 14 , 1992 as Flag Day and encourages residents of St . 31 Anthony to pause for the Pledge of Allegiance at 7 : 00 32 p.m. on that date . 33 34 Motion carried unanimously 35 36 2 .

Report of Councilmember Marks 47 48 Marks circulated photos he received today of some of the 49 youngsters from Salo , Finland who will be visiting St . 50 Anthony in July . 51 52 The Sister City Committee had sent a list of suggested 53 activities/events in which it was felt the visitors from 54 Salo may be interested . Marks noted that this list J. REGULAR COUNCIL MEEIIN13 MAY 12 , 1992 3 PAGE 7 4 5 6 included many sports-types of activities . Presently, the 7 visitors are defining what programs there is special 8 interest and prioritizing them. 9 10 4 .

She noted that the 50 registration fees for these two conferences have been 51 provided for so no City funds will be used . Fleming purchased a book entitled "Impressions" from a 54 door-to-door campaign by local students . The articles I REGULAR COUNCIL MEETING 2 MAY 12 , 1992 3 PAGE 8 4 5 6 in the book were authored by students . Fleming was 7 concerned with the violent tone of some of the articles 8 and noted that the book. had been reviewed by school staff 9 and parents.. - — - 1-0 1.1 She met with the Superint-endent of t-he School D-istrict to 12 di-scus-s her concerns . He acknowledged he had not seen the 13 book , but he shared her concern . 14 15 - - - -- 16 6 . Report of Mayor Ranallo 17 18 The Mayor received a letter which advised that two St . 19 Anthony youngsters may again be playing ball for the 20 Little- Gophers . Both Jeremy Rice and Tony d'Agostino 21 played last year and it is quite an honor to play again. 22 23 Mayos Ranallo attended the recent Cable Commission 24 meeting where he received some information regarding 25 cable television which -the Council has not received in 26 the past . 27 28 The Mayor received a very large book which addressed the 29 transfer of ownership of the cable company . He felt the 30 City' s franchise may be placed in a position of liability 31 with this transfer . He requested that staff review the 32 book very carefully and highlight areas in the material 33 which may be significant for Council discussion. He 34 suggested that the time used by staff to do this be" 35 charged to the cable franchise fees . 36 37 Funds were approved by the Cable Commission to purchase 38 a large screen television . Classes have been scheduled to 39 teach residents how to use cable television equipment . 40 These are four week sessions and the fee is $15 . 00 for 41 residents and $30 . 00 for non-residents .

Sheik ' s Restaurant , Apache Plaza, Re: Amusement Devices 48 49 The City Manager noted that he had relayed to the owner 50 of Sheik ' s Garden Restaurant and to hi.s legal counsel , 51 the Council ' s message regarding concerns that his 52 propo.sa.l for numerous amusement devices is too large in 53 number and some of the Councilmembers felt the devices 54 should strictly focus on younger children . I REGULAR COC?:CIL MAY 12 , 1992 S PAGE 9 4 5 Also , the Council requested a definition of kiddy rides 6 and amusement devices . Howard Knutson, Alwan ' s legal 7 coun-sel , responded by letter that he was unable to obtain 8 a definition of a kiddy ride or game . Accompanying his 9 letter were advertisements describing certain kiddy !0 devices but none of the distributors of this equip.-rent 11 was able to define what constituted a kiddy game or ride . 12 13 Councilmember Marks observed that each of the ads 14 specified how the equipment was put together and would 15 appeal to a certain age group . He felt the industry 16 should have a scheme for use of certain equipment or a 17 reasonable definition . 1.8 19 The City Manager responded that he had requested 20 defnini..ticns from Knutson but was advised that there were 21 none available . He suggested that he may be able to 22 obtain this information ' from some distributors out of 23 state and would puruse this avenue . 24 25 Mayor Ranallo still felt this operation would become a 26 hangout for youngsters. He noted that several youths who ? were loitering in the shopping center were arrested last week . 29 30 Councilmember Fleming felt that to have nineteen 31 amusement devices . in. the restaurant was an alarming 32 number . She noted that the four presently on the premises 33 appear not to 'be used . �4 35 Councilmember Wagner stated his support for strictly 36 kiddy games and amusement devices . 37 38 The Mayor requested the City Manager to gather additional 39 information regarding this matter and return it to the 40 Planning Commission for its consideration.

He noted that these vehicles , 12 can -create safety problems . Public' Works crews plan to 13 paint the corners and curbs yellow to prohibit such 14 problems , but this hasn ' t happened yet . - It was felt the_ 15 - painting would be as effective as signs and considerably 16 less expensive . 17 18 Various suggestions were made regarding how the parking 19 problems in this area which were experienced exclusively 20 on Sundays) could be addressed . One suggestion was to 21 contact the Pastor of the Church and advise him to 22 suggest to his parishioners that they may be liable for 23 tickets and fines . The City Manager noted that the Church 24 parking lot is not full during Sunday services . 25 26 The City Manager noted there is an unique parking problem 27 for the resident at 2424 27th Avenue Northeast .

NEW EUSINESS 7 ° a . ordinance No . 1992-004 , Re : Surface Use of Water or. 9 Silver Lake ( 1st Readi_,a ) 10 11 Mayor Ranallo advised that this :ordinance was first presented 12 approximately one year. ago . No Council action was taken at 13 that time . He also noted that if the St . Anthony City Council 14 takes any action on this matter; that similar action must be 15 taken by the City of Columbia Heights and by the Minnesota 16 Dez)artment of Natural Resources. 17 18 The Mayor invited anyone in attendance to speak on behalf of 19 the ordinance or in opposition to it . 20 21 The resident at 2505 Silver Lane stated he served on the 22 survey committee who circulated a petition regarding the 23 management of the surface water on Silver Lake . He stated that 24 a survey letter went to all Silver Lake residents .. The survey 25 letter included a ballot on which property owners could 26 indicate their preference for more or fewer restrictions on ^-7 the water surface usage of Silver Lake . . These letter/ballots were hand delivered to each home on the Lake . Fifty-three were 29 delivered and forty-nine responses were received . 30 31 This residents stated some reasons for passage of the 32 ordinance.. The ordinance addressed hours when motorized craft 33 would be restricted and the speed at which motorized craft 34 could travel . . 35 36 In response to the Mayor ' s inquiry regarding surveying of 37 other St . Anthony residents , this property owner responded 38 that only property owners on Silver . Lake were surveyed . The 39 Mayor stated he has already received calls from St . Anthony 40 residents who do not live on Silver Lake and their concerns 41 regarding restrictions . ' 42 43 Lowell Thompson , President of the Silver Lake Homeowners 44 Association, advised that the Association has never taken a 45 position of opposing the ordinance, but rather wants the 46 ordinance adopted. He felt this is an "orphan" lake, that the 47 water quality is deteriorating, and that the political 48 boundaries of the lake prohibit an active interest in the 49 future of the lake . 50 51 The City Manager noted that the Rice Creek Watershed District 52 has been petitioned to conduct a . water quality study . He thinks the Wexford Heights development has impacted on the �� lake and there will be concerns of the impact a CUB store 1 REGULAR MEETING 2 MAY 12 , 1992 3 PAGE 12 4 5 6 could have on its water quality . This impact would be relative 7 to the water runoff expected from the parking lot of a large a sized grocery store . There will have to be either redirection 9 or filtration . -- ---- -- ---_ --- -- -- -- 11 The City Manager stated that__ the _C.i_ty Coun.ci 1 _ is- very - 12 proactive in ' the matter - of water quality . Mayor Ranallo 13 advised that the Recycling Task Force agenda will be expanded 14 to include an_ Envi-ronmenta-1 Task Force to look at -the Lake and - - 15 to recommend positive direction . 16 .17 The resident at 2907 Silver Lane supports passage of the 18 ordinance and feels it does nor restrict anyone ' s rights to 19 use the lake . He feels quite the converse is true ; in that 20 present usage restricts his rights and those of his family to 21 pursue passive usage of the lake . In addition , he feels the 22 motorized boating activity stirs up the sediment on the lake 23 bottom and further damages the water quality. He observed that 24 property owners around the lake have restricted their usage of 25 fertilizer on their lawns . 26 27 The resident at 4033 Silver Lake Terrace stated he has his 28 home located on the point which extends into the Lake . He does 29 not support the ordinance and feels there is really no problem 30 with its present use. He is not aware of any problems which 31 have been reported to the Police Department and feels the 32 ordinance would be unenforceable . This resident also observed 33 that no one at the Salvation Army Camp had received a 34 letter/survey. " 35 36 He noted that public funds are used for Silver Lake and that 37 areas which receive public funds should not be restricted in 38 their use . Self policing was in evidence when there is 39 considerable activity on the lake according to ' this resident . 40 41Another resident noted that her family' s boat is frequently 42 the only boat. on the - lake and usage of it should not be 43 restricted during peak hours . 44 45 A fourth resident - has observed very limited use by - non- 46 motorized craft , but the use of jet skis has been bothersome 47 at times . It was noted that leg-islation has been recently 48 passed which addressed jet skis . 49 50 Another resident had reservations as to the source of funding 51 for enforcement and felt the mechanics of the ordinance would E.-) notc + very well . 5i 54 One resident recalled the public outcry when closing the ...-J. REGULAR COUNCIL. MEETING MAY 12 , 1992 3 PAGE 13 4 5 swimming beach was being considered . He felt this reflected 6 that property owners around the lake did not consider it 7 "their" lake . He suggested that the rules of the ordinance be 8 posted at the boat landing and felt this would be effective . 9 10 Another resident felt restrictions on the lake would reduce 11 property values of homes located on the lake . A concern for 12 having all motorized activity restricted to certain hours was 13 expressed as a 'potential safety problem. 14 15 One resident stated he would agressively videotape all ; 16 activity which did not comply with the ordinance and noted 17 that Silver Lake was the last lake in the metropolitan area 18 which did not have restrictions placed on it . 19 20 Discussion continued regarding potential lawsuits against ; 21 those who attempted to self-enforce the ordinance, the 22 procedure used in the survey which did not include the 23 Salvation Army Camp and how the ballots were distributed where 24 there was more than one vote per household . 25 26 A representative of the Salvation Army Camp indicated that he felt there were no problems with the present usage of the lake and to leave things as they are . 29 30 Councilmember Fleming noted she can understand resident 31 concern with the lake ' s water quality but could not understand 32 any benefits the ordinance may have for the residents around 33 the lake. She inquired if any homes were purchased by people 34 who did not know that motorized watercraft were permitted on. 35 the lake . 36 37 Councilmember Marks inquired if there had been any studies 38 conducted by the Department of Natural Resources which 39 addressed speed of motorized watercraft and the impact this 40 may have on the sedimentation in the lake. He was advised 41 there were studies done on the shallow depth of the lake but 42 they did not address speed of motorized watercraft . 43 44 Councilmember Marks felt there was no clear mandate from the 45 lakeshore property owners or from other residents who use the 46 lake. The Mayor noted he feels there should not be any more 47 government restrictions which may be devisive and that 48 enforcement was a big .concern . 49 50 The City Manager advised that the City of Columbia Heights has 51 indicated it is looking for St . Anthony to take the lead on �? this matter . The Department of Natural Resources will also have to be consulted . 54 I REGULAR CCUP;CIL N.-77-TIf:G 2 MAY 12 , 1992 3 PAGE 14 4 5 6 The Mayor questioned if a sign which addressed the jet ski 7 problem could be enforceable and solve the problem. The City 8 Attorney advised that jet skis cannot be banned as this lake 9 is viewed as public water and the- State owns the surface-water _ 10 _ :_a c c or-d-i-n g--t o S-t a-t a--S-t a-t-u-t-e- 12 A resident st.ated' that ."j_et- skis can b.e- restricted by the age- 13 of their users and closeness to property . He noted that there 14 can be no restrictions on not-se nor speed . 15 - - - - - - 16 Councilmember Marks observed that this is a first reading of 17 the ordinance . It can still have changes and modifications 18 before it receives a second reading.

Burt, City Manager FROM: Roger Larson, Finance Director ITEM: UNAPPROPRIATED FUND BALANCES During the 1989 Special Session, the 1990, and 1991 regular sessions, many legislators focused attention on cities' fund balances. Discussions centered on what some legislators call "excessive" reserves. In light of the increased attention to these dollars, it is critical for St. Anthony to designate or earmark these funds prior to completing its annual State Auditors Report. Many cities like St. Anthony, have developed Unappropriated Fund Balances over a period. of years. These reserves come from fiscal years where revenues exceeded expenditures and now represent a significant amount of money. To assist local governments, the League of • Minnesota Cities developed recommendations on how the fund balances should be designated. They are as follows: 1) Cities designated part or all of their undesignated reserve fund balances prior -to submitting its annual Financial Profile to the State Auditors Office. 2) Cities should plan carefully in the designation of these, funds and indicate to their auditors they would like these designations included in their Financial Statements. 3) Designations may.be established to indicate tentative plans for financial resource utilization in a future period. Such designations reflect managerial plans or intent, however, are not permanent and Council-may choose to re-direct or redesignate these funds at any time. 4) Because revenue's are received twice per year, cities should maintain adequate working capital reserves to prevent short term borrowing (the interest paid expenses can be significant). To comply with the League's recommendations, St. Anthony designates its reserves annually during the acceptance of the auditors.report to Council. For Councils reviewal, I attached a spreadsheet which indicates the designation of the 1990 reserves, the increase/decrease in the fund balance for 1991 and the 12/31/91 audited cash balances. Also, recent information published from the League indicates the State of Minnesota will • audit liquor operations. In fiscal year '91 St.. Anthony realized an excellent profit from operations ($154,185). Therefore, I feel it's in the City's best interest to designate a portion of these funds towards capital equipment purchases. These funds would be transferred from liqour 4/M reserves (beginning '91 balance of$74,000 and ending balance of $258,000). Also, included in the 1991 financial statements is the Housing and Redevelopment annual interest-earnings..

RECOMMENDATION: A) Council accept the 1991 audit report and designate the following reserves: 1) #101 General Fund Working Capital $519,745 Insurance Reserve $199,127 2) #201 General Fund Reserve Municipal Buildings $499,921 3) #301 H.R.A. $ 60,850 4) #401 Capital Equipment $ 26,849 5) #503 Improvement Bonds Fund • Municipal Buildings $663,081 Capital Equipment $213,548 6) #509 Revolving Improvement Fund Street Improvement Projects $167,530 7) #901 Retirement Fund Severance Payments $ 25,274 B) Council designated the following as Reserved/Restricted Use Funds: 1) #205 MSA Construction Fund 2) #225 Recycling & Beautification Fund 3) #230 Police Forfeiture/Dare Fund 4) #601 Community Service Center Fund 5) #701 Water/Sever Fund 6) #704 Water Contamination_Fund C) Council designate $100,000 of 1991 Liquor Profits towards the purchase of capital equipment.

Burt City Manager • MEMORANDUM DATE: May 21, 1992 TO: Thomas D. Burt, City Manager FROM: Roger Larson, Finance Director ITEM: LEAGUE OF MN CITIES INSURANCE RENEWAL Mr. Mark Flaten of American Risk Services-will be present at the May 26, 1992 Council Meeting to discuss the League's proposal for insurance coverage June 1, 1992 - May 31, 1993. The-information includes quotations for property, auto, general liability and worker's compensation. The cost for maintaining our present coverage of $10,000 Deductible and $50,000 Aggregate is $228,590. This amount represents an increase in premiums of $21,770 which is primarily due to increases in workers compensation costs ($16,432). This increase (20.7%) is based on a • 4.96% increase in payroll, a 9.89% increase in our experience modification and an average rate increase of 4.65%: There were no other insurance companies who submitted a bid. Most company's contacted indicated they could not compete with the League because of the annual dividend check they distribute each year. However, recently I did receive literature from National Beer Wholesalers Association (CNA Insurance ) regarding workers compensation coverage and in the near future I will contact this company to inquire if they will compete with the League. Recommendation Staff recommends Council accept the League of Minnesota Cities insurance proposal which includes $10,000 Per Occurrence/$50,000 Aggregate at a cost of$228,590 for the period of June. 1, 1992 through May 31, 1993. This coverage includes a fixed workers compensation premium and no changes in deductibles or liability amounts. • League of Minnesota Cities Insurance Trust Group Self-Insured Workers'.Compensation Plan •.-�.

A Project Path Report for this project has been reviewed and approved by the Federal Iiighway Administration ( FEtiA) , the Minnesota Department of TransportatiC^ ( MnDOT) , and the Ramsey County Board of Commissioners . The Public Involvement Record has been completed and will be submitted to the FHNA and MnDOT for review and approval if the cities approve the reconstruction proposal recommended by Ramsey County . Following approval of the Public Involvement Record , the Ramsey County Public Works Department will prepare a Study Report for review and approval by the FFWA, Mn DOT, and the Ramsey County Board of Commissioners . If approvals are received, the Ramsey County Public works Department would initiate final design for this .project with construction anticipated to begin in 1994 . EXISTINI: DEFICIENCIES The existing deficiencies of Silver Lake Road between Silver Lan: and I-694 are : o Safety: Ramsey County reviewed accident data for the intersections of Windsor Lane, Inca Lane , County Road E, � Third Street, Fifth Street, and Seventh Street. A total of 67 accidents were reported at these intersections from 1986-1989 . New Brighton residents were involved , in 52 of the 67 accidents reported. The reconstruction proposal would correct the majority of these accidents . o Traffic Capacity: The current roadway design does not accommodate existing traffic volumes ( see attachment) and . will not accommodate projected traffic volumes . o Sight Distance/Vertical Curves : The current roadway design does not meet state aid standards for these elements . o Drainage : Poor or inadequate . o Load Capacity : Currently limited to five tons . Ramsey County requires its roadways to be reconstructed to a nine ton capacity. o Pavement Condition : The roadway base is deteriorated . The pavement is cracked and rutted . IMPROVEMENT ALTERNATIVES Ramsey County has identified three alternatives for the improvement of Silver Lake Road : o Do ?:othing : This alternative would not address any of the deficiencies identified . The roadway would continue to deteriorate . Ramsey County does not consider this a viable alternative . o Recvcle/Overlay : The maintenance division of the Ramsey County Public Works Department would perform this T would 1. ry"e she ` emcn+- r-..n i i i on and operation . i% ..ou p 1 : load capacity . It :could not address any of the other deficiencies identified . The cost to the cities and the County would be less than the reconstruction proposal . The roadway would not be eligible for reconstruction for a minimum of 15 years . o Reconstruction Proposal : The reconstruction proposal recommended by Ramsey County would correct all of the deficiencies identified . The project is anticipated to cost $2 . 9 million . Federal , State and County funds would finance approximately 90% of the total project cost . . RECOMMENDATION AND ACTIONS Ramsey County recommends the reconstruction alternative for the improvement of Silver Lake Road and requests concurrence from the cities of New Brighton and St . Anthony to proceed with develop— ' ment of construction plans in accordance with that recommenda— tion . The County further requests that the cities take action on this request by May 1 , 1992 . • 1989 TRAFFIC FLOW MAP AMSEY COUNT PREPARED By SCALI!11 VEKICLES A.D.T.
